INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$41.76
Trading above historical range
How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 14.0x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: POR is currently trading at $45.92, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $44.05 to $45.30. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 12.9) is in line with its historical norms (14.0). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 2.7% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 7.0% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.
Technical Outlook: Technically, POR is in a strong downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $46.82. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: The stock scores a mixed 45/100 on our bottoming-setup gauge, with only partial signs of a stabilized entry point. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $51.00 (+11.1%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
