Profitability Growth Leverage Liquidity Cash Flow Returns 48 / 100
Financial Profile 48/100

Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability
47

Clearway Energy has an operating margin of 11.2%, meaning the company retains $11 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 47/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is down from 14.3% the prior year.

Growth
40

Clearway Energy's revenue grew a modest 4.2% year-over-year to $1.4B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 40/100.

Leverage
74

Clearway Energy carries a low D/E ratio of 1.36, meaning only $1.36 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 74/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity
18

Clearway Energy's current ratio of 1.13 means current assets barely cover short-term liabilities. This tight liquidity results in a low score of 18/100, which could limit financial flexibility.

Cash Flow
90

Clearway Energy converts 25.8% of revenue into free cash flow ($369.0M). This strong cash generation earns a score of 90/100.

Returns
18

Clearway Energy generates a 2.9% ROE, indicating limited profit relative to shareholders' investment. This results in a returns score of 18/100. This is up from 1.6% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Distress
0.42

Clearway Energy scores 0.42, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($4.9B) relative to total liabilities ($10.7B). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral
4/9

Clearway Energy passes 4 of 9 financial strength tests. All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), no leverage/liquidity signals pass (rising debt, declining liquidity, or share dilution), neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed
4.07x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Clearway Energy generates $4.07 in operating cash flow ($688.0M OCF vs $169.0M net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage At Risk
0.4x

Clearway Energy earns $0.4 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($160.0M vs $387.0M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
