Enterprise GroupE.TOBUYDec 02, 2025Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Jun 05, 2026. Market Open.
Considering its small size, its debt (2X cash flow), its missed Q3 earnings, and relatively illiquid float, we would consider it a 'bit' undervalued at 12X next year's earnings. However, it has had many annual losses over the past decade, and the business can be cyclical. With the stock down 28% this year and with possible year end selling, we would pass on this for now.

It is in the construction rental business. The opportunity is in the evolution of their power division: to generate power onsite using natural gas. They could also get into the mining business. They will ride the ups and downs with the oil and gas sector. Look for strong numbers to trade up and down. He sold but is watching it.
In 2020, they launched Evolution Power Products, having the exclusive right to nat gas turbines, slashing customers' diesels costs to zero and reducing pollution. Demand is strong. (Customers get carbon credits as a result.) He expects E-T to triple earnings as business rapidly grows.
(Analysts’ price target is $2.78)It has been an oil and gas services rental type of company but is on to bigger and bigger things. It supplies natural gas portable generators in remote locations and is pivoting into a play on AI centres where a lot of electricity is needed. It uses gas that would otherwise be wasted by natural gas producers. Buy 2 Hold 0 Sell 0
(Analysts’ price target is $2.78)The thing that strikes him about the chart is that it's gone parabolic. With stocks in the $2 range, technicals sometimes go out the window as the market begins to understand it. Thinks it's sustainable. Lots of support right around $1.60.
No reason to sell, but could have a really big swing due to the size of the company.
Oil field services. Lots of respect for management. Tough business. Kept debt levels in check, bought back lots of stock. Electrifying well sites via natural gas instead of diesel (expensive and polluting). That decreases cost for customers. No dividend.
Fairly big move up this year, but still really attractive. Lots of runway. Increased revenue and earnings, really strong margins of around 40%. Trades around 7x.
E has doubled this year, bringing market cap to $91M. It remains cheap at 10X earnings. There has been no major news, but Q2 earnings were fine with EBITDA more than doubling and margins increasing. It got new coverage from Acumen Capital. It has leverage to large contracts. There has been some insider buying. With its small size and 35% insider ownership we do not want to underestimate its risks here, but its fundamentals look good, the balance sheet is OK and as small caps move towards $100M market cap they do tend to get more attention from investors. We would be OK owning a small position as part of an overall small cap allocation.

It is good value in the oil field services right now. It is a product driven company with very good margins. It rents generators to allow customers to power their sites with natural gas instead of diesel. This means costs and emissions are down. It has a 50 million market cap with management owning about 40%. There is little or no analyst coverage yet. He easily sees an upside over the next year of 50 to 100%. Buy 1 Hold 0 Sell 0
(Analysts’ price target is $1.33)He’s been picking away at it. Great job of paying down debt to zero. A nimble little oil patch company. Business is picking up. Pretty cheap valuation, so you can accumulate it here. Something will happen, like the oil patch lighting up again. A rise won’t take 2 years, but perhaps in the next 6 months.
This company was having issues, where they had so much business, they were renting a lot of equipment which put pressure on their margins. Raised some money and bought a bunch of new equipment, pretty much at the worst time possible. As a consequence they now have more operational leverage than they had before, and he expects equipment is not being used very well. Doesn’t see any big rush to get back into this name.
They got into natural gas a few years ago, a high-business margin. They beat in their last quarter. They are moving towards a pure-power company, not energy services. They could succeed on the back of buying Flex Energy, which could raise their multiple.
