Mixed signals: Q2 earnings missed consensus estimates on both EPS and revenue with year-over-year declines, causing a 4% stock decline. However, operating income grew significantly (+30.8%), the company reaffirmed full-year guidance, and announced progress on the Great Basin expansion project with $2.3 billion capital investment and strong contracted demand. Zacks maintains a Buy rating despite poor VGM scores, suggesting cautious optimism about future performance.
