Deep Analysis

This is far below the Consumer Cyclical sector median of 8.6%, placing EVGO in the 17th percentile among its peers — well behind most competitors. The year-over-year change is not available, but the quarter-over-quarter change shows a decline of -153.7%, moving from -10.8% to -27.4% in the most recent period. The combination of a deeply negative ROE and a sharp quarterly deterioration signals elevated financial risk, as the company is using equity less effectively and losses are accelerating. This weak performance directly supports the overall CAUTIOUS verdict on the stock, since both the level and trend point to poor profitability and increased uncertainty.
