About Altern Energy Ltd
Altern Energy Limited builds, owns, operates and maintains a gas fired power plant, selling its electricity to a single customer, Central Power Purchasing Agency, under a long-term power purchase agreement. A gas fired power plant burns natural gas to drive turbines that generate electricity for the grid. The company is registered in Lahore and also holds direct and indirect investments in other companies engaged in the power sector.
The shares are listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) under the code ALTN, and the price on this page is in Pakistani rupees (PKR). Our dividend records, which start in 2019, show payments in 6 different calendar years. The Market X-Ray on this page is price-based and compares it with other stocks on the same exchange; it does not measure how healthy the business is.

It describes how this stock has traded: trend, momentum, risk, liquidity and dividends, each ranked against the other stocks on its own exchange. It does not measure how healthy or cheap the business is. That fundamental X-Ray needs financial statements, which we do not have for Pakistan yet.

Data under review
Too few of our models give a usable value for this company, so we show no number rather than a misleading one.
PSX income statement only (no balance sheet or cash flow): only earnings and sales models can be built. Their weights were fitted to a professional consensus-style valuation of Pakistani stocks and checked on stocks that were not used for the fit, but they use no analyst forecasts. Treat this as a rough estimate.
P/S multiple
PKR 6.310
P/E on average earnings
PKR 8.020
Each model multiplies the company's trailing-twelve-month earnings (or sales) by a multiple that blends its own current multiple, its own history and its sector median. Earnings per share by fiscal year, newest first: -0.63, 15.93, 11.93, -0.20. Source: statements and price from the Pakistan Stock Exchange portal and end-of-day data. A model estimate, not a price target or advice. How it works.

Built from the income-statement summary the Pakistan Stock Exchange publishes (sales, profit and EPS for up to four financial years, trailing P/E, market value) and our own end-of-day prices. The PSX portal has no balance sheet or cash flow, so there are no debt, cash-flow or book-value factors. A factor is left out when its data is missing or meaningless (for example a P/E on a loss). These ratings compare companies with each other and describe the past; they are not a forecast, a recommendation or part of the Market X-Ray.
