StockStory Flags EVGO, LMAT, BTU as Risky Despite Bullish Wall Street Targets

Investment research firm StockStory cautioned investors on June 2, 2026, that Wall Street’s optimistic price targets for EVgo (NASDAQ:EVGO), LeMaitre Vascular (NASDAQGM:LMAT), and Peabody Energy (NYSE:BTU) may be disconnected from fundamentals. The firm highlighted potential conflicts of interest where analysts issue favorable views to secure other business. EVgo’s consensus target of $4.25 implies a 76.6% return from its $2.41 share price, yet the stock trades at 14.9 times forward EV-to-EBITDA. LeMaitre Vascular has a $118.75 target, a 30% implied upside from $91.35, while carrying a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 30.7. Peabody Energy’s target of $34.33 suggests an 18.4% gain from $29, with a forward P/E of 13.1. StockStory did not disclose alternative picks but urged investors to scrutinize the underlying business strength of these companies.
