TransAlta Corporation

TransAlta Corporation's next confirmed earnings release is scheduled for November 3, 2026.

As of June 30, 2026, TransAlta Corporation maintains a current ratio of 0.84, meaning it holds 0.8x the short-term assets needed to cover near-term liabilities. The debt-to-equity ratio is 229.26, indicating elevated leverage, while an interest coverage ratio of 2.97 demonstrates limited ability to service its debt obligations.

Over the twelve months ended June 30, 2026, TransAlta Corporation posted a negative return on equity (ROE) of -10.30, meaning shareholder capital produced losses rather than profits. Return on invested capital (ROIC) is negative at -14.16, so the business is destroying capital rather than earning a return above its cost of capital. Return on assets (ROA) is negative at -0.26, reflecting losses generated across the asset base. Return on capital employed (ROCE) is negative at -13.59, pointing to unprofitable operations over the period. The company generates approximately 1.22M in revenue per employee across its workforce of 1,313.75, a quick read on workforce productivity versus industry peers. Inventory turnover of 6.27 indicates how many times TransAlta Corporation sells and replaces its inventory over a year, a key working capital efficiency ratio.

Over the twelve months ended June 30, 2026, TransAlta Corporation recorded 23.25M in income tax expense. That works out to an effective tax rate of 412.50, which can sit above or below the statutory corporate tax rate depending on foreign earnings mix, tax credits, and one-off items. Taxes are levied on pretax income of 5.64M, leaving -16.21M in net income after tax - the gap is what shifts in the tax rate do to reported earnings and EPS.

As of the close on August 25, 2026, TransAlta Corporation's stock has gained approximately 12.50% over the past 52 weeks.

These figures cover the twelve months ended June 30, 2026. EBITDA reached 543.26M, while operating income came in at 133.17M.

As of June 30, 2026, TransAlta Corporation holds 212.79M in cash and equivalents against 2.99B in total debt, resulting in a net debt position of 2.77B. Total book value stands at 591.17M, with working capital of -186.02M providing operational flexibility.

TransAlta Corporation produced 469.98M in operating cash flow over the twelve months ended June 30, 2026.

Over the twelve months ended June 30, 2026, TransAlta Corporation posted a gross margin of 63.90, reflecting its pricing power and cost economics. The operating margin of 8.34 and net profit margin of -1.02 provide insight into operational efficiency.

These figures cover the twelve months ended June 30, 2026. The dividend payout ratio of -96.25 is negative because earnings are negative, so the dividend is being paid out of something other than profits, a key gauge of how sustainable the dividend is and how much room remains for future dividend growth.
