Side by side · every name on one set of axes
Growth against the P/S multiple. Up and to the right is cheaper and faster — the quality-growth idea in one picture. Points beyond the axis are pinned to the edge and marked off-scale rather than allowed to compress everything else.

Why this score
Diluting shareholders
The companies
ORAOrmat Technologies, Inc.
Utilities - Renewable · $88.92 · beta 0.90
Why now
Utilities - Renewable · market cap $5.5b. Down 39% from 52-week high of $146.39 — deep drawdown territory. Revenue growing +31% — in hypergrowth territory. 12 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $126.33 (implying +42% upside).
Moat
Higher-variance name — the moat signals on the quantitative card are modest, so the durability case rests on execution (turning current growth into durable earnings power) or an un-monetized asset (IP / network effects / first-mover position) rather than an entrenched competitive position.
Risk
Free cash flow is negative (-$265m) — capital raises or debt issuance likely required; dilution / leverage risk. Down 39% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. Trailing P/E 43x sits well above the S&P median (~20x) — multiple compression is a real risk if revenue growth decelerates.
OGSONE Gas, Inc.
Utilities - Regulated Gas · $72.50 · beta 0.63
Why now
Utilities - Regulated Gas · market cap $4.6b. Down 20% from 52-week high of $90.78 — deep drawdown territory. Revenue growing +43% — in hypergrowth territory. 9 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $86.17 (implying +19% upside).
Moat

Risk
Free cash flow is negative (-$173m) — capital raises or debt issuance likely required; dilution / leverage risk. Jurisdictional + permitting risk — mining and extraction operations concentrate exposure to political stability, royalty regimes, and environmental review timelines that can stall production for years.

Where ORA and OGS diverge
On the headline score the gap is 17.1 points in favor of OGS. The widest single difference is Value, where OGS leads by 34.3 points.
ValueORA 50.0 · OGS 84.3OGS +34.3
QualityORA 34.5 · OGS 45.7OGS +11.2
GrowthORA 75.1 · OGS 80.4OGS +5.3
Pillars run 0–100. Value is judged against each company's own sector, so a Value score is a statement about a company relative to its own industry rather than to the other name here. A wide Value gap usually means the market already prices the difference in quality or growth — which is the trade-off this comparison comes down to.
Common questions
Is OGS or ORA the better stock?
OGS scores higher: OGS 67.7, ORA 50.6 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth score, which blends business quality, growth and valuation into one number. A higher score means a stronger business at a more reasonable price — it is not a price target or a recommendation.
Where do OGS and ORA differ most?
The widest gap is value, where OGS leads by 34 points on the 0–100 pillar scale. OGS leads all three pillars, so the gap is broad rather than a single-measure difference.
How are OGS and ORA scored?
Each carries the same 0–100 quality-growth score used everywhere on the site, built from three pillars — quality (profitability and returns on capital), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (what you pay for them) — combined as a geometric mean, so a weak pillar cannot be papered over by a strong one.
How current is this comparison?
The whole universe is re-scored every trading day after the US market close, so the scores and fundamentals here reflect the latest published edition.
