The market's caution towards the stock is due to stagnant EPS growth. Last year's poor performance suggests unresolved issues, worse than the 1.5% annualised loss over the past five years. Persistent share price weakness could be a negative sign, but contrarian investors might see a potential turnaround.
Investors are expecting Black Hills Corporation's limited future growth, leading to its lower P/E ratio. The bleak earnings outlook, implying lack of positive surprises, seems to eliminate chances for a significant near-term rise in share price.
Black Hills' ROE isn't impressive, especially given its heavy use of debt. High ROE usually hints at a quality company, but Black Hills' reliance on debt downplays enthusiasm for its returns.
