What the Analysts think about HP
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Helmerich & Payne stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Helmerich & Payne stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
North American drilling momentum is improving: H&P deployed 10 additional rigs during the quarter, lifted daily margins by more than $1,000 sequentially and raised its fourth-quarter outlook to 145–151 rigs with $245m–$255m of direct margin. (H&P, Inc.)
Argentina is becoming a meaningful international growth driver. H&P signed contracts for five additional FlexRig units, while International Solutions direct margin rose to $31m from $11m in the previous quarter as activity in the Vaca Muerta basin strengthened. (H&P, Inc.)
The offshore business offers useful revenue visibility: a four-year Norwegian contract renewal helped take offshore backlog to $3.6bn, including firm and optional periods. (H&P, Inc.)
The latest GAAP profit overstates underlying earnings. H&P reported a $115m gain from selling Utica Square, while adjusted results still showed a $10m loss, so the operating recovery has not yet produced consistent profitability. (H&P, Inc.)
The North American recovery may be fragile because recent additions have mainly come from private and smaller independent operators, which are more price-sensitive. H&P also says supply and demand for super-spec rigs is still evolving, leaving future utilisation and margins exposed if commodity prices weaken. (H&P, Inc., The Motley Fool)
