For those interested in digger a bit deeper into my commentary, take a look at the report on Interregional Distribution Grid Company of Volga here.
Flawless balance sheet and undervalued
MRKV is financially robust, with ample cash on hand and short-term investments to meet upcoming liabilities. This implies that MRKV manages its cash and cost levels well, which is a key determinant of the company’s health. MRKV seems to have put its debt to good use, generating operating cash levels of 2.65x total debt in the most recent year. This is also a good indication as to whether debt is properly covered by the company’s cash flows. MRKV is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company's expected cash flow going forward. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts' consensus forecast growth be correct. Compared to the rest of the electric utilities industry, MRKV is also trading below its peers, relative to earnings generated. This further reaffirms that MRKV is potentially undervalued.
