Kosmos Energy (KOS) might move higher on growing optimism about its earnings prospects, which is reflected by its upgrade to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Here is how Kosmos Energy (KOS) and Oceaneering International (OII) have performed compared to their sector so far this year.

Following a careful analysis of the Zacks Oil and Gas - International E&P industry, we advise focusing on companies like ENQUF, KOS and HBRIY.

Kosmos Energy remains too financially risky due to a debt ratio above 2.0. Management aims to reduce KOS's debt ratio to 2.0 or below by year-end. Current long-term debt stands at $2.5 billion with $145 million due soon, against a six-month EBITDAX of $527 million.

Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.
