Centrus Energy (LEU) received a Buy rating from Robert Brown with a target price of $154.00. This rating was based on the company's strong fundamentals and promising growth prospects [1].

On the other hand, Leo Mariani from Roth MKM maintained a Hold rating on EOG Resources (EOG) with a target price of $134.00. This rating was likely influenced by the company's recent margin pressure and cautious investment approach [1].

EOG Resources (EOG) has been the subject of various analyst reports. Raymond James Financial raised their target price on EOG from $158.00 to $161.00 and gave the stock a "strong-buy" rating [1]. Jefferies Financial Group reaffirmed a "buy" rating and set a $148.00 price target, while Wells Fargo & Company reaffirmed an "overweight" rating [1]. Morgan Stanley set a $135.00 price target and gave the stock an "equal weight" rating, while Mizuho cut their price target from $140.00 to $134.00 and set a "neutral" rating [1]. Overall, twelve analysts have rated the stock with a hold rating, nine have assigned a buy rating, and one has issued a strong buy rating, resulting in an average rating of "Moderate Buy" and a consensus price target of $140.62 [1].

EOG Resources reported earnings of $2.87 per share in the last reported quarter, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.74. The company's earnings have surpassed the consensus estimate in each of the trailing four quarters, delivering an average surprise of 6.02% [2]. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share of $2.20 has witnessed no downward or upward revision in the past seven days. The estimated figure suggests a decline of 30.4% from the prior-year reported number [2].

EOG Resources is expected to have delivered a stable performance in the second quarter, supported by highly productive acreages in premier oil shale plays like the Permian and Eagle Ford. However, the company faced margin pressure from softer commodity realizations and trimmed its 2025 capital expenditure budget by $200 million [2].

In summary, analysts have mixed opinions on Centrus Energy (LEU) and EOG Resources (EOG). While Centrus Energy received a Buy rating, EOG Resources received a Hold rating from one analyst and a Moderate Buy rating from others. EOG Resources has shown strong earnings performance in recent quarters, but analysts are cautious about the company's margin pressure and investment approach.
