The Energy median in the September 2026 study was 16.8×. Forward P/E is 22.1×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.

- **Price / book: 3.6×**. The shares trade at 3.6× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 12.9×**. Enterprise value is 12.9× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 4.5%** (5-yr avg 0.8%). Free cash flow equals 4.5% of the market value, above its five-year average of 0.8%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been.
- **Earnings yield: 4.1%**. The inverse of the P/E: 4.1% of the price is earned each year.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): -26.2%** (3-yr 72.2%/yr, 5-yr -7.2%/yr). Earnings per share fell 26.2%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.

## Financial health

- **Interest coverage: 2.2×**. Operating profit covers interest 2.2×, thin but manageable.
- **Current ratio: 0.63** (quick 0.56). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
