Cash vs Debt
The company holds $337.8M in cash, though total debt stands at $4.01B. This level of leverage is common in the industry but worth monitoring as interest rate conditions evolve. The company is burning cash, with free cash flow at -$1.04B. This typically occurs when a company is investing aggressively in growth, but sustained cash burn can strain the balance sheet. Return on equity stands at 9.5%, which is decent for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 2.3% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has been uneven over recent years, ranging from $1.64B to $1.81B.
With a beta below 0.7, IDACORP, Inc. typically sees smaller price swings than the overall market, offering a degree of stability during turbulent periods. The debt-to-cash ratio suggests meaningful leverage on the balance sheet, a factor worth monitoring if credit conditions tighten. The company is burning cash at the operating level, which is not unusual for growth-phase companies but adds risk if it persists. No single metric tells the full story. Reviewing IDA's risk profile alongside its fundamentals and technical indicators provides a more complete picture.
