To fair value
−1%
Report dated 2026-06-18 · fair value derived independently of the market price.
The thesis, in brief
The Iran-war oil spike fully unwound and the stock round-tripped to ~$63 (accumulate zone). Already rebounded → base target $78 nearly reached (small upside now vs ~23% in the note)
How we value it
We value Tidewater using FCF/DCF 7y (10.7% WACC, g 2%) + EV/EBITDA. The 12-month fair value is set from that intrinsic estimate first, then compared to the market to read the upside or downside — never anchored to the current price.
