SUNation Energy, Inc. represents a hold based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Our model assigns SUNation Energy, Inc. a Hold rating, with a composite score of 51.8/100 and 3 out of 5 stars. Ranked #1719 of 7,333 stocks, SUNE presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to initiate new positions nor weak enough to warrant selling. Investors already holding may consider maintaining their position while monitoring for changes in the factor profile.
With a quality score of 62/100, SUNE shows adequate but unremarkable business quality. The company reports a return on equity of -77.3% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 36.4% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of -31.4% (sector avg: 1.0%). This suggests the company generates acceptable returns but may lack the competitive positioning or operational efficiency to stand out from peers.
SUNE's value score of 64/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include an EV/EBITDA of 3.21x, a P/B ratio of 0.23x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.
SUNation Energy, Inc.'s investment score of 24/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 40.2% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of -33.9% (sector: 0.9%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
SUNE is currently showing below-average momentum at 34/100, which may indicate weakening institutional interest or negative sentiment shifts. Revenue growth stands at 40.2% year-over-year, while a beta of -89.10 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Investors should note that declining momentum can precede further price weakness, though contrarian opportunities sometimes emerge at these levels.
SUNE's stability score of 25/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of -89.10 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 128.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.
The short interest score of 50/100 for SUNE suggests somewhat elevated bearish positioning by institutional traders. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 128.00x), micro-cap liquidity risk. With a $5M market cap (micro-cap), SUNation Energy, Inc. may experience above-average volatility. Investors should consider whether the short thesis has merit or if it creates a potential short-squeeze opportunity.
SUNation Energy, Inc. is a micro-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #1719 of 7,333 overall (77th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -77.3% trailing the -1.9% sector median and operating margins of -11.5% below the 2.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While SUNE currently exhibits a HOLD profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
