The Ethical Read
Why It Clears, in Plain English
Dubai Electricity & Water clears all five screens. Its business is in a permissible area, its interest-bearing debt is about 20%, inside the ~33% line, and interest is about 1% of its income, under the ~5% line, so it passes.

What the Numbers Say It Is Worth
The Fair Value Range
Our analysis reads Fair vs our fair value, as of 6 Nov 2026: it trades at roughly a 2% discount to our 2.77 AED fair value, 8.20% revenue growth.
Fair value range in AED, drawn from the 2026-11-06 screen. The gold marker is the market price at the same screen. A 1.4% discount to the base estimate.
Third-party analyst targets: 14 covering, consensus Buy. The average target sits +15% from the screen price.
Reading the gap · Our more conservative model reads it as roughly fairly valued here, while the Street is more bullish: a quality-at-a-fair-price name rather than a deep-value one.
Projections
Where our models see it going: fair-value estimate 2.77 AED, with a range of 2.48 AED to 3.19 AED, dated to the 2026-11-06 screen.
Fair value and rating are our own model estimates; the Street's range reflects third-party analyst estimates. Analysis, not advice.
The Business, in Plain Words
Why it is worth knowing
A quality business: 26% profit margins. It trades close to our 2.77 AED fair value, so the easy discount is gone; you would be paying up for the quality.
Another profit measure, before interest, tax and non-cash costs: EBITDA.
The risks · The things to watch: its business and earnings are exposed to United Arab Emirates and to currency swings.
Plain-English interpretation of our own screen data. Analysis, not advice.
