Portland General Electric Company (POR) Latest News
25 Sep
Portland General Electric announced a total dividend of $0.55 per share, ex-dividend 2026-09-25 and payable 2026-10-15. The Oregon utility continues a long history of quarterly payouts since 2006 and has increased dividends every year, yielding about 4.4% trailing and 4.6% forward. Dividend growth over 3–10 years runs in the mid-single digits, with a five-year yield-on-cost near 5.8%. As of 2026-06-30, the payout ratio is 0.94, signaling the dividend is near fully covered but stretched against earnings. Profitability and growth are solid (roughly 7/10 on GuruFocus metrics), yet top-line and EPS growth remain modest. The company’s renewables investments and grid modernization could support future earnings, but the near-full payout ratio presents risk if earnings soften. Overall, dividend safety appears mixed: long history and clear cash flows loom against limited growth and high payout burden. Payout near 1.0 with modest earnings growth and ongoing capital investments create a balanced but uncertain dividend trajectory.
