Bulls say / Bears say
Viridien generated $67m of net cash flow in the first nine months and cut net debt by 18% year on year to $656m. A further bond repayment is planned, giving the company more room to strengthen its balance sheet. (Viridien)
Geoscience returned to growth in Q3, with revenue up 3% year on year, while its backlog rose from $267m at September-end to $283m at October-end. A high double-digit rise in pending bids could support further orders if those opportunities convert. (Viridien, Stock Analysis)
Sercel’s new land-seismic equipment is winning deployments in different markets: 18,000 Accel nodes were sold for a US survey, and 6,000 were selected for a geothermal project in Germany. This gives the equipment business some growth avenues beyond conventional oil and gas surveys. (Viridien, Viridien)
Operating performance weakened sharply: Q3 segment revenue fell 24% and adjusted EBITDA fell 40% year on year. The group also reported a $46m net loss over the first nine months, so the expected recovery has yet to show up in the bottom line. (Viridien)
Sensing & Monitoring remains exposed to disruption in the Middle East: Q3 revenue fell 18% year on year and adjusted EBITDA turned negative at $5m. Ongoing delays leave this business a drag until customer activity recovers. (Viridien)
The improvement in nine-month cash flow came despite a $148m fall in segment adjusted EBITDA, as better working capital and lower investment more than offset the drop. That makes the $67m cash-flow result less persuasive as evidence of an earnings recovery, while net debt remains $656m. (Stock Analysis, Viridien)
