公司概述
Gulfport Energy Corporation is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and production of natural gas, crude oil, and natural gas liquids across the United States. The company operates within the Energy sector, specifically functioning as an Oil & Gas E&P (Exploration and Production) entity, which focuses on upstream activities to secure hydrocarbon reserves. With a market capitalization of $3.77 billion, the company generates annual revenue of $1.30 billion and employs a workforce of 245 individuals. These valuation and revenue figures indicate that Gulfport Energy maintains a significant operational footprint in key geological formations such as Utica, Marcellus, SCOOP Woodford, and Springer, positioning it as a mid-to-large-cap player in the domestic energy landscape. The scale of its market cap relative to its revenue suggests a robust asset base that supports its ongoing exploration and production activities in eastern Ohio and central Oklahoma.
财务健康
The company reported revenue of $1.30 billion over the trailing twelve months, with net income reaching $396.16 million and EBITDA standing at $907.01 million. The substantial gap between the $1.30 billion revenue and the $396.16 million net income reveals a high-cost structure typical of the upstream sector, where operating expenses, including drilling costs and infrastructure maintenance, consume a significant portion of gross inflows before arriving at the bottom line. Free cash flow stands at $139.59 million, which indicates that after capital expenditures, the company retains sufficient liquidity to fund operations, service debt, or pursue strategic acquisitions without relying heavily on external financing. Operating margins are robust at 51.0%, gross margins reach 67.6%, and profit margins sit at 32.9%, collectively demonstrating efficient cost management relative to the volatile nature of commodity pricing. On the liability side, total debt is $788.75 million while cash on hand is only $1.81 million, resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 42.99, which signifies a leveraged balance sheet dependent on future cash flow generation to meet obligations. The current ratio is 0.68, suggesting that the company's current assets do not fully cover its current liabilities, indicating a reliance on long-term financing or asset liquidation to meet short-term obligations. Return on Equity is 23.9% and Return on Assets is 12.7%, metrics that highlight management's effectiveness in generating substantial returns for shareholders relative to the equity invested and the total asset base utilized.
估值评估
The trailing twelve-month P/E ratio is 9.47, while the forward P/E is projected to be 6.97. The difference between these two multiples implies that the market expects earnings growth in the coming year, as investors are willing to pay a lower multiple for future earnings compared to current realized earnings. The price-to-book ratio stands at 2.08, indicating that the market values the company at more than double its book value, reflecting a premium assigned to its underlying oil and gas reserves and intangible assets. Alternative valuation metrics such as the price-to-sales ratio of 2.90 and an EV/EBITDA of 5.03 provide context, suggesting the stock is priced reasonably relative to its sales volume and enterprise value adjusted for earnings power. Over the past year, the stock price has fluctuated between a 52-week high of $225.78 and a 52-week low of $153.27, with the current trading price situated within this historical range, reflecting typical market volatility for the energy sector. The company exhibits a beta of 0.59, which means its stock price volatility is approximately 41% lower than the broader market, offering a potential hedge against equity market downturns while maintaining exposure to energy price movements.
Growth & Income
Revenue growth year-over-year is recorded at 25.2%, whereas earnings growth is listed as N/A in the available data. The absence of reported earnings growth figures prevents a direct comparison of earnings expansion relative to revenue, but the strong revenue increase suggests successful exploration outcomes or favorable commodity pricing dynamics driving top-line expansion. As a non-dividend payer, Gulfport Energy does not distribute cash to shareholders, evidenced by a dividend yield of N/A and a payout ratio of 0.0%, indicating that the company retains all earnings to fund capital expenditures, reduce debt, or reinvest in growth initiatives rather than providing current income. This reinvestment strategy is common for exploration and production firms in the early to mid-growth phases of their reserve lifecycle. The overall growth and income profile is characterized by significant revenue expansion funded by retained earnings, with no reliance on dividend distributions to satisfy shareholder return expectations.
