Action:DowngradedDate:04/02/26
The score is primarily supported by a strong balance sheet and steady revenue growth, but is held back by weak/volatile cash generation (including negative free cash flow in 2025) and margin compression. Technicals are mixed with neutral momentum, and valuation signals are limited aside from a modest dividend yield.
Positive Factors
Conservative balance sheet
Low historical leverage and a materially larger equity base provide durable financial flexibility. This supports bidding on large, long-cycle power projects, cushions cyclical downturns, and reduces refinancing pressure, enabling sustained investment in capacity and project execution.
Negative Factors
Volatile cash generation
Inconsistent conversion of earnings into cash undermines self-funding of capex, working-capital for large projects, and shareholder returns. Persistent cash volatility increases reliance on external financing and raises execution risk on long-duration contracts.
