Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Concho Resources stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Considering Concho Resources' service cost inflation and the negative sentiment surrounding oil prices, we remain bearish on the Permian pure play. With rig prices rising on the back of stronger demand and stiff competition putting upward pressure on service costs, the company's margins are set to suffer. As it is, land prices in the Permian are surging, which will again make drilling costly. Crude's renewed decline will hamper Concho Resources' earnings and cash flows. Lack of geographical diversification also keep us worried. Therefore, despite its comprehensive second-quarter earnings beat, we see the company as a risky bet that is best avoided at the moment." (8/9/2017)
• 2. KLR Group analysts commented, "We are increasing our CXO target price $13 to $189 per share due to slightly lower capital intensity, approximately 3% higher oil composition and higher gas price realizations partially offset by higher operating/overhead expense. Our '17 production growth forecast of ~22% is at the midpoint of company guidance (20%-24% growth)." (2/22/2017)
• 3. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "4Q16 EPS/CFPS of $0.20/$2.43 compared to our estimate of ($0.24)/$2.51 and Street consensus of ($0.07)/$2.41. EPS beat our forecast on realized price (1%) and most costs/unit including LOE (-10%) partially offset by production (-2%) and cash G&A (3%) (Figure 1). Production of 164.3 MBoe/d was 1% short of both Street/SF estimates but inline with guidance (164-167 MBoe/d). Volumes increased 7% from 3Q16 and 14% y/y." (2/22/2017)
