Sasol is executing operational improvements, notably converting the Twistdraai Export Plant, and enhancing feedstock quality and downstream economics at Secunda. SSL's valuation remains deeply discounted, with forward EV/EBITDA at 3.12x versus a sector median of 8.2x, but sustained operational gains could narrow this gap. Cash conversion and working capital discipline are critical; FY2026 saw free cash flow rise 26% ex-settlement, but inventory build delays deleveraging and dividends.
Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.
Sasol NYSE: SSL reported stronger financial and operating performance for fiscal 2026, citing improved reliability across its Southern African value chain, cost discipline, stronger refining margins and progress in its International Chemicals reset.
