Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts Spotlight On 3 Utilities Stocks Delivering High-Dividend Yields

In the current session, Portland Gen Electric Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/POR#NYSE">POR</a>) is trading at $41.17, after a 0.80% decrease. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 4.88%, and in the past year, by 9.65%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747245654_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Portland Gen Electric P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Portland Gen Electric has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 16.78 of the Electric Utilities industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747245654_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

JPMorgan analyst Jeremy Tonet reduced the ratings for Eversource Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ES#NYSE">ES</a>) and Portland General Electric Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/POR#NYSE">POR</a>) amid JPMorgan economists&#8217; prediction <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645681/jpmorgan-raises-recession-risk-to-60-as-largest-us-tax-hike-in-60-years-hits-global-economy" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">that a recession is likely this year</a>.
The analyst writes that while President Donald Trump's announcement of a 90-day delay in tariff hikes offers a temporary reprieve, the proposed increase in tariffs on China to 125% still results in an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44720006/markets-take-off-as-trump-announces-90-day-tariff-pause-for-non-retaliating-nations-slaps-china-with-125-duty" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">average effective rate above 25%</a>.
Eversource Energy: Consequently, Tonet downgraded Eversource to Underweight from Neutral and cut the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ES/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $69 to $58</a>.
The analyst says that he sees growing recession and tariff-related headwinds as additional downside risks for the company, given its ongoing offshore wind exposure and the persistent regulatory challenges in the Northeast, particularly Connecticut (CT).
Despite some progress in leadership confirmation at CT Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA), Tonet remains skeptical that regulatory easing would meaningfully improve the company&#8217;s position.
Portland General Electric: Also, the analyst lowered Portland General Electric&#8217;s rating from Overweight to Neutral and cut the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/por/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $55 to $44</a>.
The analyst writes that he remains cautious due to several factors. First, the company is already facing rate backlash, which could worsen if economic pressures intensify.
Second, its small-cap profile and exposure to wildfire risk make it less attractive in a market leaning toward safety trades, adds the analyst. 
Further, Tonet says that the significant financing requirements, combined with limited flexibility in the absence of a secured holding company, also disadvantage the company on a relative basis.
