Warnings

The company's reported profits differ from official accounting profits by 142%. Check what costs are being left out of the adjusted number.
The company pays out 186% of its profits as dividends. That leaves little cushion — the dividend could be cut if business slows down.
Wall Street's average price target is $7.00 (from 20 analysts). Our estimate is 136% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

Key Risks

  • Growth DCF inappropriate — terminal value assumptions dominate
  • EV/EBITDA misleading for regulated businesses where capex is mandated
  • Regulatory risk is a fat tail not visible in normal multiples
