CluenexConstellation Energy CEG
Constellation Energy scores average on business quality (4.8 of 10). Here is why, in plain words, and what our sealed record shows.
Why it matters
- What Constellation Energy does
Constellation Energy generates and sells electricity to wholesale and retail customers, operating the largest carbon-free nuclear fleet in the United States. Energy buyers and utilities pay for this baseload power to meet clean energy demands.
- What it does best
Operating massive nuclear assets with reliable output, achieving a return on equity of 14.7% that outpaces peers like Duke Energy at 9.9%. This scale provides a durable operational advantage that smaller merchant generators cannot easily match.
- The main risk
Utility sector pressures leave shares vulnerable to broader market shifts, with sentiment in the group hitting oversold extremes not seen since 2023.
Quality, check by check
Scored against its own industry, from company filings.
Operating margin sits at 14.7% and net margin at 11.1%, reflecting steady profitability that scales alongside large baseline power generation.
Scale in nuclear generation creates a high barrier to entry, placing its return on equity in the top quartile of its sector at 83rd percentile rank.
Revenue grew 8.3% to $31.3 billion over the latest period, pacing slightly behind historical multi-year revenue trends.
Total debt sits at $9.0 billion against $3.6 billion in cash, while free cash flow stands at $271 million after significant capital expenditures of $3.9 billion.
