AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

I look at Genie Energy as a small utility-like reseller with a solar side. It sells electricity and natural gas to homes and small businesses, employing only 139 people, so it is nimble but not protected by a wide moat; commodity resale rarely offers durable pricing power. The balance sheet is a genuine strength: the provided debt-to-equity is 0.03 and FairStock’s Altman Z-Score is 3.85, while trailing free cash flow is $11.9 million—only a FairStock FCF yield of 2.7% at the $441.7 million market cap. Returns are mixed: FairStock’s ROE is 13.24%, but ROCE is 3.65%, which tells me the business does not earn much on total capital. Growth is uneven. In fiscal 2023, revenue was $428.7 million, net income $52.2 million, and diluted EPS $1.99. In fiscal 2024, revenue was $425.2 million, net income $35.5 million, and EPS $1.31. In fiscal 2025, revenue rose to $502.0 million, but net income fell to $24.0 million and EPS to $0.90. The latest filed quarter, fiscal Q2 2026 ended 2026-06-30, showed revenue of $100.4 million and net income of $11.4 million, or $0.43 per diluted share—better than the annual run-rate. FairStock calls it a STALWART because five-year profit growth averaged 12.8% and revenue 7.1%. At the 2026-10-13 close of $16.89, FairStock’s calculations show P/E 15.08, P/B 1.70, and a Graham Number of $15.81, a negative margin of safety of 6.83%. FairStock Score is 38/100. I would want more consistent returns and a wider discount before calling it compelling.

In plain English: Genie Energy sells electricity and natural gas to homes and small businesses, and it also develops solar projects. The business looks financially sturdy because it has very little debt and earned $11.4 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, but its annual profits have been uneven. At the October 13, 2026 closing price of $16.89, the stock looks fair to slightly expensive compared with its assets and profits, not an obvious bargain.
