Analysis
Middle-of-the-road
NTPC Limited is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group. One caution: reported profits have recently run ahead of actual cash, which we track closely.
The price is expensive. You pay 119.1× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically expensive zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 31% yearly growth; analysts expect 8%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.
The trajectory is moderate and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 3/20 on our value-creation score: not creating value.
What to watch: Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
