Revenue Growth Forecast: 12.6% p.a.
Energean, a UK-based energy company, is experiencing substantial growth with a 49% increase in production year-over-year as of the first quarter of 2024. Despite trading at 40.9% below its estimated fair value and concerns over high debt levels, the company's revenue is expected to grow by 12.6% annually, outpacing the UK market average of 3.6%. However, its dividend sustainability is questionable as it's not well covered by earnings or cash flows. Analyst consensus suggests a potential stock price increase of 43%.

Despite a dividend yield of 4.89%, coverage by earnings is weak, and profit margins have declined from the previous year's levels.
