Veer Energy & Infrastructure Falls to 52-Week Low of Rs.14.85 Amidst Weak Financials

The stock has recorded a consecutive three-day decline, resulting in a cumulative return loss of 2.09% over this period. This recent downturn has placed Veer Energy & Infrastructure below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, signalling sustained downward momentum.

In comparison, the Sensex has shown resilience, trading positively at 84,749.82 points, up 0.09% after a flat opening. The benchmark index remains close to its 52-week high of 85,290.06, just 0.64% away, supported by mega-cap stocks and bullish moving averages where the 50-day DMA is positioned above the 200-day DMA.

Veer Energy & Infrastructure’s 52-week high was Rs.26.04, highlighting the extent of the stock’s decline over the past year. The company’s one-year performance shows a negative return of 29.87%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex’s positive 9.24% return over the same period. This underperformance extends beyond the short term, with the stock lagging behind the BSE500 index across one year, three months, and three years.

Financially, Veer Energy & Infrastructure is facing challenges that have contributed to its current valuation levels. The company reported operating losses, which have impacted its long-term fundamental strength. Its ability to service debt is constrained, with an average EBIT to interest ratio of -1.93, indicating that earnings before interest and tax are insufficient to cover interest expenses.

Further, the company’s return on capital employed (ROCE) is negative, reflecting the losses reported. The operating cash flow for the fiscal year is at a low of Rs. -4.59 crores, while net sales for the nine-month period stand at Rs.5.68 crores, showing a decline of 35.09%. Cash and cash equivalents at the half-year mark are minimal, recorded at Rs.0.02 crores, underscoring liquidity constraints.

The stock’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) are negative, which adds to the risk profile when compared to its historical valuation averages. Over the past year, profits have fallen by 103.2%, a significant contraction that aligns with the stock’s downward trajectory.

Shareholding patterns reveal that the majority of shares are held by non-institutional investors, which may influence trading dynamics and liquidity in the stock.

Veer Energy & Infrastructure’s market capitalisation grade is rated at 4, reflecting its relative size and market presence within the power sector. The sector itself has seen mixed performance, but Veer Energy’s underperformance relative to sector peers is notable, with the stock underperforming the power sector by 0.75% on the day of the new low.

In summary, Veer Energy & Infrastructure’s stock has reached a critical low point at Rs.14.85, driven by a combination of weak financial metrics, negative profitability indicators, and sustained price declines. The stock’s position below all major moving averages and its underperformance relative to the Sensex and sector benchmarks highlight the challenges faced by the company in the current market environment.
