NRG Energy, Inc. (NYSE:NRG) Receives Consensus Rating of "Moderate Buy" from Analysts

NRG Energy, Inc. (NYSE:NRG) has received a consensus "Moderate Buy" rating from fifteen brokerages, with an average 12-month price target of $199.43, significantly above its current trading price of $119.05. Despite an 11% year-over-year revenue increase in Q2 to $7.48 billion, the company missed adjusted EPS estimates, leading to a share price selloff. NRG is actively pursuing a customer-backed 1.2-gigawatt Texas data-center power project valued at $3.2 billion and continues to pay a quarterly dividend.
