Analysis

Rio Paranapanema Energia S.A (GEPA3) currently trades at R$34.99, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is R$47.81, implying the stock looks roughly 36.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 49/100 (below-average quality), in the Utilities sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: medium), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Rio Paranapanema Energia S.A generated revenue of R$1.4B at a net margin of 19.8%. Revenue grew 27.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 17.6%. Net debt stands at R$1.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from R$33.65 (bear case) to R$59.77 (bull case); at R$34.99, the current price sits within that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 8% below its 52-week high and 32% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Utilities peers we cover trades at -27% fair-value upside, at 37%, GEPA3 screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
