MGE Energy Hits New 52-Week Low at $81.13 Amid Market Struggles

MGE Energy, Inc., a small-cap player in the power industry, has reached a new 52-week low of USD 81.13 as of November 3, 2025. This decline marks a significant point in the stock's performance, especially considering its 52-week high was recorded at USD 109.22. Over the past year, MGE Energy has generated a return of -8.42%, contrasting sharply with the S&P 500's performance of 19.89%.
The company's market capitalization stands at USD 3,044 million, with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 25.00. MGE Energy's dividend yield is currently at 2.18%, and it maintains a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.60. The return on equity (ROE) is reported at 10.32%, indicating a moderate level of profitability relative to shareholder equity.

Despite a consistent annual growth rate in net sales of 5.64% and operating profit growth of 7.30% over the last five years, MGE Energy has faced challenges in maintaining competitive performance against broader market benchmarks. The stock's valuation appears elevated, with a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 8.10% and a PEG ratio of 4.5, suggesting that the stock may be trading at a premium compared to its growth prospects.
