Ticker symbol ENIC · Utilities · Regulated Electric · Chile · ADR · Value Income

Is ENIC undervalued?
Enel Chile S.A. (ENIC) closed at 4.39 on 5 Nov 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 8 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 5.18, so the price sits 15% below it. 4 of the 8 models value the shares above the current price. A margin of safety between 10% and 30% is where most of the Sunday Scan candidates come from.
There is a wide gap between Graham Number (0.1204) and 10 Cap (15.35). When the models are this far apart the "fair value" is really a range, and the margin of safety above should be read with that range in mind.
Ranked against every other company we cover, ENIC is clearly cheaper than it is fast-growing, so the nightly engine files it under Value (value score 63, growth score 37, out of 100). It also carries the Income tag (Income = a dividend yield of 4% or more).
Nine valuation models for ENIC
Each model turns the latest filed numbers into a value per share; the GLS fair value is the simple average of the ones that produce a positive number. The last two rows are shown for reference and never enter the average. The Quote page lets you switch any model off and add your own margin of safety.
| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | - | - | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital; no value tonight |
| Graham Number | 0.1204 | -97% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 6.67 | +52% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 1.65 | -62% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 1.21 | -72% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 15.35 | +250% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 9.20 | +110% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 2.65 | -40% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 4.60 | +5% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -3.68 | -184% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 5.00 | +14% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Enel Chile S.A. scores 7 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, the nine yes/no tests of profitability, leverage and efficiency on the latest annual accounts - a strong reading that passes the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter with room to spare. A GLS Moat score of 3.5/10 is a weak reading: the accounts do not show returns and margins that competitors have been unable to wear down, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 6.7%, ROE 10.4%, ROA 4.2% - with debt at 0.55 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 10.8%.
The dividend yield is high at 4.10% (payout ratio 52%). A yield this size is often the market's way of pricing a risk to the payout, so the health score and cash flow matter more than usual. Revenue comes mainly from Sales of Products and Services 100% (fiscal year FY2024).
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 7 / 9 | ROIC | 6.7% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.5 / 10 | ROE | 10.4% |
| Debt / equity | 0.55 | ROA | 4.2% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 10.8% | Payout ratio | 52% |
| Institutions | 1 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 35: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 35 Enel Chile S.A. sits in the Weak band. It fails filter 1, options that actually trade - options too quiet (75 open interest, 2 a day); and filter 9, not a penny stock - price 4.39 (under $5); Option trading (weak) is its weakest part.
Implied volatility is 30% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out: enough to pass the 25-80% Wheel Trade Filter, but under the 35-60% sweet spot the score rewards most. Chain open interest is thin - 75 contracts across every expiry - so fills at a fair price are not guaranteed; a 30-45-day put may not exist at a usable strike.
Volume runs at 810k shares a day on a market cap of $6.1B, with a beta of 0.44 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that good.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Fails | options too quiet (75 open interest, 2 a day) |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Passes | Profitable over the last twelve months - not a speculative stock, fund or note |
| 3 | Below fair value | Passes | Trading below the nine-model average fair value (margin of safety above 0) |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Passes | Piotroski F-score 6 or more out of 9 (a company with no score on file passes) |
| 5 | Can repay its debt | Passes | Long-term debt repaid from 3 years of operating cash flow or less (6 for real estate and utilities; banks and insurers are not judged on it) |
| 6 | No serious red flags | Passes | Red Flags score 60 or more out of 100 (earnings, margins, debt, analysts, filings and price checked the same way for every stock) |
| 7 | A premium worth selling | Passes | Implied volatility 25-80% (enough premium, not a lottery ticket) |
| 8 | Big enough | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Fails | price 4.39 (under $5) |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Fair | 15% below fair value | |
| Premium | Good | implied volatility 30% | |
| Moat | Fair | moat 3.5/10 | |
| Health | Good | Piotroski 7/9 | |
| Red Flags | Fair | Red Flags score 70/100 | |
| Option trading | Weak | 2 contracts a day, 75 open interest | |
| Stability | Good | beta 0.44, $6.1B company |
