Enlight Renewable Energy Ltd. Ordinary Shares ENLT

The bottom line

Enlight builds and runs solar and wind farms, so the stock is driven by the pace of new projects, debt costs and interest rates. The numbers show the tension: $29.2M quarterly net income and 43% annual revenue growth, against roughly -$654M free cash flow, $6.4B debt versus $1.17B cash, and 16.4% dilution. A 110.5 P/E versus a 20.8 sector median assumes high growth continues for years. This week's news was Zacks ratings and screens, not business developments; the stock rose 1.25% while the sector ETF rose 3.97%.

Cheap or expensive? relatively expensive

Its price-to-earnings (P/E) is 110.5 versus 20.8 for the median of the Utilities sector in our universe (9 companies) — relatively expensive.

Revenue is growing 43% a year — the market is paying ahead for that growth. If it slows, the high multiple becomes the risk.

On analysts' next-year forecasts the multiple drops to 92.6 — they expect higher earnings.

The average analyst price target is 86.14, 28% above the current price (their view, not ours).

The stock sits at 46% of its one-year range (0% = the low, 100% = the high).

The risks

• • More cash leaves than comes in (negative free cash flow).
• ⚠️ The share count grew 16% in a year — each share owns a smaller slice of the company.
• • Net debt is 2.4× shareholders' equity — high leverage.
• • The stock is 38% below its one-year high.

Strengths

• ✅ Profitable — 18 of every 100 dollars of revenue stays as profit.
• ✅ Revenue is growing 43% a year.
