Is Southern Company (SO) overvalued? · P/E 22, rev $6.26B
Southern Company (SO) is a utilities - regulated electric company listed on US.
This page asks whether Southern Company (SO) looks expensive on cached numbers — not a short thesis.
Latest reported SO revenue for 2016-09-30 was $6.26B. Net income was $1.17B. Revenue was down 25.9% from 2016-06-30 to 2016-09-30. SO currently screens at market cap $101.55B and trailing P/E 22.1.
SO currently screens at market cap $101.55B and trailing P/E 22.1. A high multiple can be growth prepaid or a bubble. The filing has to explain the gap.
If the next SO 8-K cuts growth or raises capex, this “expensive” read gets worse. Until then the SEC page is the source.
