Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Capricorn Energy PLC is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.

The price is expensive. You pay 68.9× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically expensive zone.

The trajectory is moderate and the balance sheet is sturdy. The company scores 14/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

Nothing is flagged here: no red or amber gates, no divergence between profits and cash. That is itself information: the numbers are straightforward. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
