Benchmark downgraded GeoEye (NASDAQ: GEOY) shares from Buy to Hold Monday morning. The firm's price target was lowered from $30 to $20.

The firm noted "After Friday's close, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency informed GEOY that it would not fully exercise GEOY's year three EnhancedView contract due to funding shortfalls... The NGA has also cancelled the $156 million unfunded portion of the GeoEye-2 cost share."

Benchmark sees the best-case scenario as a 50 percent EnterpriseView reduction. The worst case would be default in April.
