We investigate the energetics of the electron-hole liquid in stoichiometric divalent metal hexaborides. The ground state energy of an electron-hole plasma is calculated using RPA and Hubbard schemes and compared to the binding energy of a single exciton. Intervalley scattering processes play an important role in increasing this binding energy and stabilizing a dilute Bose gas of excitons.
