Summary
- Leading offshore support vessel and services provider Tidewater reported strong Q1/2024 quarter, with both revenues and profitability ahead of consensus estimates as utilization and dayrates exceeded internal expectations.
- Free cash flow of $43.8 million reached a new recovery high.
- Management also reiterated full-year guidance but warned of a weaker-than-expected second quarter performance which should be made up for by a materially improved second half.
- While industry conditions remain constructive, the company's valuation in combination with recent insider selling is a cause for concern.
- With shares trading close to my $95 price target, I am reiterating my "Hold" rating on TDW stock.
