Edenor: Why The 75% Earnings Drop Is Misleading, And Metrogas Isn't Priced In Yet

Edenor maintains strong operational recovery, but the market already prices in current improvements, justifying my continued 'Hold' rating. Q2 2026 results show revenue up 10% YoY and EBITDA up 94% YoY (ex-CAMMESA), while headline net earnings fell due to a non-recurring gain last year. EDN's $780M bid for Metrogas, if approved, would diversify operations and serve as a medium-term growth catalyst, but integration risks remain.
