Price vs Fundamentals
Note: The most recent financial data is over 3 months old. Metrics shown may not reflect the latest reporting period.
The stock fell 11.85% over the last year. Revenue grew 9.85% over the trailing twelve months. Operating margin moved from 21.61% to 22.95%. Free cash flow declined 295.76% over the trailing twelve months.
The stock has moved lower against modestly improving underlying metrics. The operating data does not yet tell a clear story — the move may reflect sentiment, sector rotation, or macro factors rather than company-specific earnings power.
Operating margin currently stands at 22.95%. A decisive move in revenue — currently up 9.85% — would be the clearest signal to resolve the ambiguity.

Analysis
Dividend Aristocrat
MGEE has raised its dividend for 33 consecutive years — qualifying as a Dividend Aristocrat, demonstrating long-term commitment to shareholder income.
Strong dividend growth rate
The 5-year CAGR of 5.07% meaningfully outpaces inflation, compounding real income growth for long-term holders.
Dividend exceeds free cash flow
Free cash flow covers only -1.18× the dividend. The company is paying out more than it generates in cash, which is unsustainable without borrowing or asset sales.
