Market Focus10-19

On October 19, NRG Energy Inc fell 5.18% in Regular Trading, trading at $98.25 per share, with turnover of $46.02 million.

The most recent company update showed NRG Energy Inc maintained its quarterly dividend at $0.475 per share, payable on November 16 to shareholders of record on November 2. The announcement was broadly neutral and did not provide an incremental capital return catalyst.

As background, the company’s latest quarterly results released in August showed adjusted EPS of $1.49, below market expectations of $1.69 to $1.72, while full-year adjusted EPS guidance of $7.90 to $9.90 bracketed the consensus view. Since then, several brokers have reduced their price targets, including Scotiabank to $162 from $211 and Jefferies to $160 from $179, indicating a more cautious stance on earnings recovery and valuation.
