Tidewater Q1 Net Income Plunges to $5.98M, Full-Year Guidance Reaffirmed
TDW has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $37.32.
Summary
Tidewater Inc. reported a significant drop in first-quarter net income to $5.98 million, with revenue declining 2.2% year-over-year to $323.42 million. The decline was primarily driven by a $3.4 million foreign exchange loss and elevated operating expenses in the Middle East. Despite the weaker Q1 performance, the company reiterated its full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $1.43 billion to $1.48 billion and gross margin guidance of 49% to 51%. This reiteration, following previously raised guidance in March, suggests management's confidence in its ability to meet targets despite near-term headwinds. Investors will be watching for progress on the Wilson Sons Ultratug deal, expected to close in Q2, and how the company manages persistent Middle East costs.
