Puma Energy Zambia PLC has a total equity of ZMW 1.73 billion and total liabilities of ZMW 1.41 billion, resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.0, indicating a strong equity position with no leverage [doc:HA-latest]. The company's current ratio of 1.21 suggests it has sufficient current assets to cover its current liabilities, supporting a stable liquidity position [doc:valuation snapshot]. The company reported a net income of ZMW -77.11 million and an operating income of ZMW 83.67 million, translating to a return on equity of -4.47% and a return on assets of -2.46%. These figures indicate a negative return on invested capital, which is below the typical performance of the Oil & Gas Refining and Marketing industry [doc:valuation snapshot]. Puma Energy Zambia PLC operates through several segments, including Retail, Commercial Fuels, Aviation, Lubricants, and Clean and Low Carbon. The company's revenue is primarily concentrated in Zambia, with a network of approximately 61 retail sites. However, the input data does not provide specific revenue breakdowns by segment or geography [doc:HA-latest]. The company's revenue for the latest period was ZMW 14.86 billion. While the outlook for the current fiscal year is not explicitly provided, the negative net income suggests a challenging operating environment. The company's operating cash flow of ZMW 429.21 million indicates it generates positive cash from operations, which is a positive sign for its ability to sustain operations and potentially invest in growth [doc:HA-latest]. The risk assessment for Puma Energy Zambia PLC indicates a low dilution risk, with no significant dilution potential identified in the basic shares outstanding. However, the liquidity risk could not be assessed due to the lack of balance-sheet inputs and no going-concern language in the source documents. This uncertainty may affect the company's ability to meet short-term obligations [doc:Risk assessment]. Recent events and filings for Puma Energy Zambia PLC are not detailed in the provided data. The company's financial performance and risk profile suggest that it may be facing operational challenges, but the positive operating cash flow indicates some resilience in its core operations [doc:HA-latest].
