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

The power sector stock, Veer Energy & Infrastructure, currently trades below all major moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages. This technical positioning indicates sustained downward momentum. On the day of the new low, the stock underperformed its sector by 0.75%, signalling relative weakness compared to its peers.

Over the past year, Veer Energy & Infrastructure’s stock has declined by 29.87%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex’s positive performance of 9.24% during the same period. The Sensex itself is trading near its 52-week high, currently at 84,749.82 points, just 0.64% shy of its peak at 85,290.06. The broader market environment remains buoyant, supported by mega-cap stocks and bullish moving averages, highlighting the divergence in Veer Energy’s performance.

Veer Energy & Infrastructure’s 52-week high was Rs.26.04, indicating a substantial decline of approximately 43% from that peak to the current low. The stock’s market capitalisation grade stands at 4, reflecting its relative size and liquidity in the market. The company’s Mojo Score is 12.0, with a grade adjustment recorded on 22 January 2025, moving from Sell to Strong Sell, reflecting a revision in its evaluation metrics.

Financially, the company has reported operating losses, which have contributed to a weak long-term fundamental strength. The EBIT to interest ratio averages at -1.93, indicating challenges in servicing debt obligations. This is further underscored by a negative return on capital employed (ROCE), signalling that the company’s capital is not generating positive returns.

Recent financial results show that operating cash flow for the year is at its lowest level of Rs. -4.59 crores. Net sales for the nine-month period stand at Rs.5.68 crores, reflecting a contraction of 35.09% compared to the previous period. Cash and cash equivalents at half-year are reported at a minimal Rs.0.02 crores, highlighting liquidity constraints.

The stock’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) are negative, which contributes to its classification as a risky investment relative to its historical valuation averages. Over the past year, profits have fallen by 103.2%, reinforcing the financial strain the company is experiencing.

Veer Energy & Infrastructure has underperformed not only in the last year but also over longer time frames, including three years and three months, when compared to the BSE500 index. This below-par performance in both the near and long term reflects persistent challenges in the company’s business operations and market positioning.

Ownership structure reveals that the majority shareholders are non-institutional investors, which may influence the stock’s liquidity and trading patterns. The stock’s day change on the day of the 52-week low was -0.73%, continuing the trend of recent declines.

In summary, Veer Energy & Infrastructure’s fall to Rs.14.85 marks a significant technical and fundamental low point for the stock. The combination of weak financial metrics, negative cash flows, and underperformance relative to market benchmarks has contributed to this new low. While the broader market and power sector maintain positive momentum, Veer Energy’s current position reflects ongoing challenges in its financial health and market valuation.
