What the company does National Fuel Gas Company (NFG) is a diversified energy firm with three segments: Integrated Upstream and Gathering (exploration/production of natural gas and oil in the Appalachian region), Pipeline and Storage (interstate gas transportation/storage in NY/PA), and Utility (retail gas sales in NY/PA).

Key financials NFG shows strong profitability metrics: ROE 20.8%, ROA 7.6%, ROCE 12.9%, and gross/operating/net margins of 64.1%/42.0%/27.4%. Revenue and EPS growth are 17.6% and 9.3%, respectively, with a dividend yield of 2.6% and payout ratio of 30.1%.

Stock health The stock exhibits high-quality scores (Quality 76.4, Income 80.4) but weak momentum (Momentum 35.7, RSI 55.10). Financial stability is solid: Debt/Equity 0.91, Interest coverage 7.13, Current ratio 3.20, and a perfect Piotroski F-Score of 9/9.

Price vs fair value The stock trades at a **discount** of 64.30% to our fair-value estimate of 133.95 and a **discount** of 20.78% to the 12-month target of 98.50. - Q3 2026 earnings beat estimates and highlighted strong long-term growth (GuruFocus.com, Zacks). - Analysts emphasize long-term growth potential despite recent underperformance (Zacks). - High valuation percentile (73.7/100) and low multiples (Fwd P/E 9.13, EV/EBITDA 6.61) suggest undervaluation.

Looking forward Forward P/E of 9.13 and PEG of 0.41 indicate potential value, but weak 12-month momentum (-5.32%) and RSI (55.10) suggest caution. Analysts remain bullish on long-term growth, supported by recent earnings beats and strong fundamentals.
