On August 5, EOG Resources fell 5.27% in regular trading, trading at 135.84 USD/share, with turnover of $359 million. Despite reporting strong Q2 results, the stock sold off as geopolitical risks in the Middle East weighed heavily on investor sentiment.
EOG reported Q2 adjusted EPS of $5.07, beating the consensus estimate of $5.01, representing a 118.5% increase year-over-year. Revenue surged to $8.62 billion from $5.48 billion a year earlier, also exceeding analyst expectations of approximately $7.79-8.04 billion. The company maintained its quarterly dividend at $1.02 per share and guided for 5% crude oil production growth and 14% total production growth for the year.
However, the company simultaneously disclosed that its Bahrain operations have been intermittent due to the Iran conflict. While management noted that UAE early test wells exceeded expectations and expressed a view that oil demand is structurally rising due to Middle East tensions, the market focused on the uncertainty surrounding the company's regional exposure and potential long-term operational disruptions.
