Analysis

Bargain bin

CPFL Energia S.A. falls in the bargain bin: the price is low relative to peers, but the business metrics give reason to pause. One caution: reported profits have recently run ahead of actual cash, which we track closely.

The price is attractive. You pay 6.9× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically attractive zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly -8% yearly growth; analysts expect -6%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

The trajectory is tepid and the balance sheet is sturdy. The company scores 16/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
