Winston Score History

The full picture

Energean is an oil and gas company that finds and produces natural gas and oil from fields under the sea. Its main product is natural gas, which it sells mostly to power companies, utilities, and industrial customers in the Mediterranean region. The company's most important asset is the Karish gas field off the coast of Israel, which it developed and brought into production in 2023.

Energean makes money by selling the gas and oil it produces under long-term contracts, which gives it more predictable revenue than companies that sell at spot prices. It operates primarily in Israel, Greece, Egypt, and a handful of other Mediterranean and Adriatic countries, and has a market cap of around $1.4 billion. The company's long-term contracts and Israel-focused production give it some stability, but its heavy reliance on a single major asset means any operational problems at Karish — or regional geopolitical instability — could significantly hurt its results.

Strong grower

Energean is growing revenue at 173% year-over-year. The Winston Score penalises unprofitable companies, but revenue at this pace tells a different story — this is a company still in "build mode."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
