Operations: The company's revenue is derived from its oil segment, generating $846.68 million, and its gas segment, contributing $119.56 million.

Market Cap: £1.18B

Seplat Energy Plc, with a market cap of £1.18 billion, has demonstrated robust earnings growth of 199.5% over the past year, significantly outperforming the oil and gas industry average. Despite this growth, its Return on Equity remains low at 4.6%, and short-term assets exceed liabilities but do not cover long-term liabilities fully. The company's debt is well managed with operating cash flow covering 71.9% of it, though its debt-to-equity ratio has increased over five years to 40.3%. Seplat's dividend yield of 6.9% is not adequately supported by earnings, indicating potential sustainability concerns.
