Frequently asked questions

How profitable is AEP?
In its most recent fiscal year, AEP ran a gross margin of 31.81%, an operating margin of 24.33%, and a net margin of 16.43%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does AEP generate?
AEP produced $6.81B in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is AEP's balance sheet healthy?
AEP holds $268.00M in cash and equivalents against $44.13B in long-term debt, on $31.14B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
