Clean Energy Fuels (CLNE) Loses Persist, Focus Shifts to Profitability Amid Attractive Valuation Metrics

Clean Energy Fuels (CLNE) has seen losses accelerate by 30.5% per year over the past five years, with no improvement in net profit margin over the past twelve months. Revenue is forecast to grow 7.9% per year, lagging the broader US market's 10.5% pace. Projections suggest CLNE will remain unprofitable for at least the next three years. Despite this, attractive valuation metrics, such as a lower-than-industry-average Price-To-Sales Ratio of 1.2x, and a share price well below estimated fair value, may outweigh continued red ink and subpar revenue growth expectations.
