Upturn Advisory & Investor View for ENJ

09/25/2026: ENJ (1-star) is currently NOT-A-BUY. Pass it for now.

Entergy New Orleans is a regulated electric and gas utility operating under the umbrella of Entergy Corporation, serving the city of New Orleans. The company derives its stability from a franchised, essential service business model that generates predictable cash flows. Its primary growth strategy revolves around long-term investments in grid hardening and storm-resilient infrastructure. Key risks include exposure to extreme Gulf Coast weather events, which can drive high capital requirements, alongside the inherent unpredictability of local regulatory rate-setting processes. It is generally well-suited for income-focused or conservative investors seeking stability over high-growth potential, with future performance closely tied to successful regulatory management and infrastructure execution.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
ENJ receives a 3-star rating, supported by available scored pillars. The rating is constrained by soft analyst coverage, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
ENJ has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with solid financial health, moderate growth momentum, and soft ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+66.6%) and solid profitability (net margin 13.6%) are partially offset by soft cash generation (FCF margin -21886.8%), moderate revenue growth (+9.0%), very low insider ownership of 0.00%.

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
ENJ's financial health is supported by solid profitability, including gross margin of 66.8% and operating margin of 24.7%. Liquidity is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Earnings growth is ENJ's strongest growth driver at +66.6% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, while revenue growth (+9.0%, moderate) and free-cash-flow growth (-809901.2%, negative) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 0.0% and approximately 0.0% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership is only 0.00%, which materially reduces the ownership score.

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
ENJ generates approximately $668 of gross profit, $247 of operating income, and $-218,868 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Strong margins, cash conversion, and capital efficiency support the rating.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 22.59%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
ENJ has a high-quality, relatively low-volatility profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
