Category IntegratedRegion Lat. AmericaCEO (family-controlled)Jurisdiction risk High (80)

Overview

Argentine integrated energy company pairing Neuquen upstream (Agua del Cajon gas, Vaca Muerta acreage) with owned thermal and wind power generation — a gas-to-power model largely insulated within Argentina's regulated market.

Small-cap with concentrated family control; economics driven by Argentine energy policy and FX. Flags: Argentina macro/FX/capital controls, regulated tariffs, upstream a minority of a power-heavy mix.

Its EV/EBITDA of 9.8x is above the 5.9x median across the 142-company universe, the free-cash-flow yield of -3.6% is lower than the 6.5% median, and at $10.00/boe of proved reserves it is cheaper than the $13.51/boe median.

On a balanced screen across the universe, Capex S.A. scores 29/100, strongest on asset quality (55/100). Sub-scores: value 25, quality 55, growth 16, risk 93 (higher = riskier).

Reserves & production

Capex S.A. holds approximately 0.1 billion boe of proved (1P) reserves with FY2025 production of about 16 thousand boe/d (65% liquids), a reserve life of roughly 16.8 years. Break-even: ~$45 (corporate breakeven) — Integrated gas-to-power model; upstream gas feeds owned generation, buffering commodity swings.

Net asset value (public-source)

For Capex S.A., no SEC standardized measure is disclosed (non-US filer or listed NOC), so a public-source proved-NAV floor is not computable from US filings. See the interactive screener's NAV tab for peers where an SEC figure exists.

How this is scored. Each country's risk (0–100) is anchored to two named public indices — the OECD Country Risk Classification (0–7 official export-credit country risk) and the World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators (Political Stability & Absence of Violence percentile) — blended 55/45 and rescaled to 0–100. A company's jurisdiction risk is the production-weighted average across the countries where it operates. This is a pure country measure, kept separate from company & financial risk (leverage, governance). Source: OECD Country Risk Classification (CRC) as of 24 July 2025, sourced via the German Federal Export Credit Guarantees (exportkreditgarantien.de) which applies the OECD consensus country risk category directly (values 0-7; 0 = lowest risk). High-income OECD members are not individually rated by the OECD and are set to crc=0 per the model spec (US, UK, Norway, Canada, Australia, Japan, NZ, and most of Europe incl. OECD members Israel, Poland, Hungary, Czechia, Lithuania, Ireland). 'ps' = World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) 'Political Stability and Absence of Violence/Terrorism' percentile rank, latest available (2023 vintage), 0-100 with higher = more stable; ps values are best sourced estimates rounded to the WGI percentile scale. Yemen not on OECD list ('./.') so crc estimated at 7. Iraq-Kurdistan and Falklands are non-standard model rows using judgment, not official OECD entries..
