Insights

Profitability dropped sharply year over year, but Tidewater kept a robust 2026 outlook and balance-sheet flexibility.

Tidewater generated Q1 2026 revenue of $326.2 million, down 2.2% year over year, with average day rates essentially flat and vessel operating margin at 48.6% of vessel revenues. The big change was earnings: net income fell to $6.1 million from $42.7 million, as higher operating, G&A and tax expense compressed margins.

Despite softer GAAP profit, the company produced Adjusted EBITDA of $129.3 million and free cash flow of $34.4 million for the quarter. Cash and cash equivalents were $552.3 million as of March 31, 2026 against total debt of roughly $654.4 million, supporting an authorized share repurchase program of $500 million.

Management reiterated 2026 revenue guidance of $1.43–$1.48 billion and pro forma gross margin of 49–51%, assuming the Wilson Sons Ultratug acquisition closes by the end of Q2 2026. They pointed to tighter offshore vessel markets and strong utilization, but also highlighted higher insurance and crew-related costs in the Middle East due to regional conflict, which they expect to keep near-term operating expenses elevated.

"Net income of $6.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $129.3 million"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

HOUSTON, May 4, 2026 - Tidewater Inc. (NYSE:TDW) announced today revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 of $326.2 million, compared with $333.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Tidewater's net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $6.1 million ($0.12 per common share), compared with net income of $42.7 million ($0.83 per common share) for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

 

Quintin Kneen, Tidewater’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The first quarter of 2026 exceeded our expectations across all key financial and operational measures, with revenue, gross margin, day rate and utilization all outperforming. Revenue for the quarter came in at $326.2 million and we generated a gross margin of 48.8%, a slight improvement over the fourth quarter of 2025. We continued to benefit from stronger than anticipated vessel up-time, which is a continued testament to our company-wide focus on operational excellence and a product of the significant investments we’ve made over the last few years into the fleet. Day rate increased nicely in the first quarter, improving nearly $240 per day, bolstered by a particularly tight AHTS market in the North Sea; this is notable as the first quarter typically represents the slowest quarter of the year due to seasonality with activity typically picking up in the second and third quarter, particularly in regions like the North Sea. We view this dynamic as indicative of a market that has tightened earlier than normal as rigs mobilize to pursue new projects and tightening offshore vessel supply. Further, term contract fixtures appear to have reached an inflection point in the first quarter with our weighted average term contract day rate increasing for the first time since the second quarter of 2025.

 

“During the first quarter, Operation Epic Fury commenced in the Middle East, one of our principal operating regions. To date, we have not experienced any disruptions in activity due to the conflict; in fact we experienced higher than anticipated utilization during the first quarter. However, late in the quarter after the conflict commenced, we did experience higher than anticipated costs associated with the conflict, particularly as it relates to insurance and the costs of our crews in the region. We anticipate that this elevated level of operating expense to persist until such time the conflict is resolved.

 

“During the first quarter, we announced the acquisition of Wilson Sons Ultratug, a 22-vessel fleet of PSVs exclusively focused on serving the Brazilian market. We have been pleased with the organization as we’ve begun our integration efforts and are excited to continue the work to on-board this important acquisition onto the Tidewater platform. We still expect to close the transaction by the end of the second quarter.

 

 

 

 

“As pleased as we are with the strong start to the year, uncertainty remains at a macro level as to how the conflict in the Middle East is ultimately resolved. However, we believe that the outlook for offshore vessel activity has fundamentally improved over the past quarter. In addition to prior expectations of offshore demand building into the back half of 2026 and into 2027, the global energy equation is being reshaped through the conflict in the Middle East and is likely to have long-term implications. We anticipate that energy security, particularly access to localized sources of energy, along with the need to replace existing production and depleted inventories, should drive incremental activity beyond what was anticipated prior to the conflict in the Middle East. It is clear that commodity prices will likely remain at a more constructive level to provide support for this activity.

 

“Tidewater remains well-positioned to support this reshaping of the global energy value chain given the scale of our fleet and the geographic diversification of our business, both in terms of our ability to respond to an increase in demand given our current geographic dispersion and with our ability to rapidly reposition vessels into markets with disproportionate demand growth given our footprint in every major offshore market around the world. We are comfortable reiterating our 2026 revenue guidance of $1.43 billion to $1.48 billion and a 49% to 51% margin, assuming a closing of the Wilsons acquisition by the end of the second quarter of 2026, given the positive momentum we see for the business in the back half of the year somewhat tempered by some near-term friction we see on the cost side in the Middle East.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

We disclose and discuss EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP financial measures in our public releases, including quarterly earnings releases, investor conference calls and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We define EBITDA as earnings (net income or loss) before interest and other debt costs, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash indemnification asset charge (credit), non-cash stock-based compensation expense, loss on early extinguishment of debt and acquisition, restructuring and integration related costs. Our measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.

 

Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income or loss, cash provided (used) in operating activities, investing and financing activities, or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are widely used by investors and other users of our financial statements as a supplemental financial measure that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, we believe provide additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ability to service debt, pay taxes and fund drydocking and survey costs and capital expenditures. We also believe the disclosure of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare our cash flow generating capacity from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year.

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also financial metrics used by management (i) as a supplemental internal measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations; (ii) to compare to the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA of other companies when evaluating potential acquisitions; and (iii) to assess our ability to service existing fixed charges and incur additional indebtedness.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP investment performance indicator which we believe provides useful information regarding the net cash generated by the Company before any payments to capital providers. Free cash flow is determined from net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for effects of exchange rate changes on cash, capital expenditures, excluding expansion capital, proceeds from asset sales, cash interest expense and interest income and other. Free cash flow excludes indemnification assets credit (charge) included in interest income and other. Free cash flow is not defined by U.S. GAAP and is not a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities.

 

Note (A): Net cash provided by operating activities is affected by changes in our assets and liabilities and the amounts we pay in cash for our drydocks and vessel surveys as illustrated in the following table:
