What Is Changing
On a Năm 2024 basis, BGE has not accelerated revenue sharply, but profitability is improving visibly — the growth momentum has held across consecutive periods. More notably, profit relies heavily on non-core sources while operating cash flow is negative — these two factors together suggest earnings quality needs cautious evaluation.

Drivers of BGE's profit

Financial Highlights
Detailed analysis of each financial dimension

Profitability trend
TTM YoY · 2024Q3 -> 2025Q3
Watchpoints
Margin support from financial result remains high (18044.3% of PBT) — sustainability should be monitored.
Is capital being used efficiently?
Capital efficiency for utilities should be read alongside regulated tariffs and long-cycle depreciation — ROIC of -1.5% reflects a large fixed-asset base.
Is capital being deployed efficiently?
ROIC currently stands at -1.53%. Track NOPAT margin and capital turnover to assess capital efficiency.
For utilities, ROIC reflects returns on a large fixed-asset base — this is a reference signal and should be read alongside regulated tariffs.

Balance Sheet
ROIC for utilities reflects a large fixed-asset base and regulated tariffs — the balance sheet below adds perspective. Capital structure is balanced — liabilities at 0.92x equity, net debt at 0.62x equity.
Over the last 12 months, working capital released 605.8bn of cash, mainly thanks to lower receivables. Pressure from higher inventories and lower payables only partly offset that benefit.
Working Capital Drivers
TTM YoY · 2024Q3 -> 2025Q3
Working Capital Efficiency
Track receivable, inventory, and payable turns to judge working-capital efficiency.
Track DSO, DIO, DPO components to evaluate working capital turnover efficiency.
For utilities, working capital cycle reflects regulated pricing mechanics and long-term settlement contracts — DSO/DIO/DPO should be treated as contextual signals rather than pure efficiency indicators.

Is financial risk significant?
Financial risk is low — leverage is safe, both CFO and FCF are positive.
Leverage & Liquidity
Leverage warrants monitoring, with net debt / equity at 0.62x and interest coverage only at 0.09x.
At present, short-term debt accounts for 24.5% of total debt, cash equals 4.3% of debt, and total debt stands at 5,823.8bn.
Leverage for utilities reflects long-term capital needs for fixed assets and recovery through regulated pricing — elevated leverage is structural to the industry.
Watchpoints
Interest coverage is 0.09x, leaving limited room to absorb financing costs.
Cash / debt stands at 4.3%, leaving limited liquidity buffer to monitor.

Cash Flow
With safe leverage noted above, cash flow below shows the self-funding capacity. Operating cash flow reached 1,207.0bn in 2024, against investing cash flow of -894.6bn.
Post-investment cash flow was positive +312.4bn. Financing cash flow was negative +415.2bn.
CFO / net income was -200.70x.
After spending +70.8bn on fixed-asset investment, the business generated trailing free cash flow of +1,186.0bn.
For utilities, high capex and long investment cycles are structural — short-term FCF volatility does not reflect long-term cash generation through regulated pricing.

Investment Takeaway
The business is showing brightening signals, but the improvement is still early and not yet thick enough to read as a confirmed trend. Even so, earnings quality still needs closer monitoring because net financial result remains elevated. The main risk still sits in leverage and liquidity, with interest coverage at 0.09x.
Watchpoint: the earnings mix still needs monitoring, with net financial result still accounting for 15443.2% of PBT and CFO / net income currently at -200.70x.
Key risk: leverage and liquidity still require discipline, with interest coverage only at 0.09x.
