Investors interested in stocks from the Utility - Electric Power sector have probably already heard of Portland General Electric (POR) and Paranaense de Energia (ELP). But which of these two stocks offers value investors a better bang for their buck right now?

COPEL's net revenue grew 8.8% year-over-year, driven by a 31.7% increase in energy supply revenue and favorable hydrological conditions. Operating efficiency improved as costs rose slower than revenue, boosting EBITDA margin to 25.5% and reflecting benefits from privatization. Leverage remains healthy at 2.3x net debt/EBITDA, enabling a new dividend policy with a minimum 75% payout and at least biannual distributions.

I recommend buying COPEL due to its attractive valuation, cost control, and reduced leverage, despite mixed 2Q24 results with stable revenues and margins.

Net income surged 53.9% YoY to BRL 474 million, boosted by a non-recurring item, demonstrating strong profit growth despite lower-than-expected net income.
