AI Analysis

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

I look for businesses I can understand, bought at a sensible price. SandRidge is a small Mid-Continent oil and gas producer: 1,446 gross wells, 825 net wells, one active rig, and 102 employees. That scale does not give it a durable moat; it sells commodities at market prices and has little pricing power. Still, the balance sheet is a Graham-style comfort: debt-to-equity is 0.00, and FairStock's Piotroski F-Score is 7/9. At the 2026-10-13 close, FairStock calculates P/E 6.41, P/B 1.00, FCF yield 8.0%, EV/EBITDA 3.29, Graham Number $27.16, and margin of safety 47.13%. Those are undemanding if earnings hold. The filed figures show improvement: in fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $51.1M, net income $26.7M, and diluted EPS $0.72, versus fiscal Q2 2025, the quarter ended 2025-06-30, when revenue was $34.5M, net income $19.6M, and diluted EPS $0.53. Fiscal year 2025 revenue was $156.4M, net income $70.2M, and EPS $1.90; fiscal year 2024 was $125.3M, $63.0M, and $1.69. Profit growth has been real, but it follows oil and gas prices. FairStock classifies it as CYCLICAL — Oil & Gas E&P because earnings follow the economic cycle. The dividend yield is 3.67%, beta is 0.43, and trailing free cash flow is $42.5M. Altman Z-Score of 2.01 and ROCE of 7.14% remind me this is not a fortress compounder. Cheapness plus no debt is attractive; commodity price risk and depletion are the rub.

In plain English: SandRidge Energy is a small oil and gas producer in the Mid-Continent region. The business looks financially steady, with recent quarterly sales and profit higher than a year earlier, no debt, and a dividend, but results depend heavily on energy prices. The stock price looks cheap compared with recent profits and what the company owns, though that could change quickly if oil or gas prices fall.
