Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Tidewater Inc. reported solid full-year 2025 results with a sharp earnings jump despite a soft offshore backdrop. Revenue for 2025 was $1,352.8 million, up slightly from 2024, while net income rose to $333.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA reached $598.1 million. Results were helped by a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $201.5 million tied to a vessel realignment.

The business generated $379.1 million of operating cash flow and $426.0 million of free cash flow in 2025, allowing Tidewater to repurchase 2.5 million shares for $98.2 million. Year-end cash rose to $578.8 million, and common shares outstanding were 49,566,334.

Fourth-quarter 2025 revenue was $336.8 million, down 2.4% year over year, but net income jumped to $219.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $143.1 million, aided by a $2.1 million foreign exchange gain and the tax benefit. Average day rate was $22,044 per day, only slightly below the prior year, with vessel utilization in the high 70% range on a global basis.

Tidewater updated 2026 guidance to revenue of $1.43 to $1.48 billion and a gross margin of 49% to 51%, reflecting the previously announced Wilson Sons Ultratug acquisition in Brazil. The company also highlighted $500 million of remaining share repurchase authorization.

Positive

  • Strong profitability and cash generation: 2025 net income reached $333.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA $598.1 million, with free cash flow of $426.0 million and year-end cash of $578.8 million supporting shareholder returns and balance sheet strength.
  • Upgraded 2026 outlook with strategic expansion: Management raised 2026 guidance to $1.43–$1.48 billion of revenue and 49–51% gross margin, incorporating the Wilson Sons Ultratug acquisition and leaving $500 million of share repurchase authorization available.

Negative

  • None.

Insights

Strong 2025 cash generation and higher 2026 guidance, but earnings flattered by a tax benefit.

Tidewater delivered modest 2025 revenue growth to $1,352.8 million but a large step-up in profitability, with net income of $333.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $598.1 million. The improvement came with vessel operating margins near the 50% level and disciplined cost control across regions.

A key nuance is the non-cash deferred tax benefit of $201.5 million from vessel realignment, which boosted reported net income and the exceptionally strong Q4 result. Underlying cash performance is still robust, with free cash flow of $426.0 million in 2025 and Q4 free cash flow of about $151 million, supporting $98.2 million of share repurchases and ending cash of $578.8 million.

Management’s 2026 outlook, including revenue guidance of $1.43–$1.48 billion and gross margin of 49–51% pro forma for the Wilson Sons Ultratug acquisition, signals confidence in offshore demand and the Brazilian expansion. Combined with a remaining $500 million buyback authorization, these figures suggest management sees continued strong cash generation, though actual outcomes will depend on offshore drilling activity through 2026 and integration of the new fleet.

HOUSTON, March 2, 2026 - Tidewater Inc. (NYSE:TDW) announced today revenue for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025 of $336.8 million and $1,352.8 million, respectively, compared with $345.1 million and $1,345.8 million, respectively, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024. Tidewater's net income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025, was $219.9 million ($4.41 per common share) and $334.7 million ($6.64 per common share), respectively, compared with net income of $36.9 million ($0.70 per common share) and $180.7 million ($3.40 per common share), respectively, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024.

 

Quintin Kneen, Tidewater’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Although 2025 was anticipated to be a down year for the offshore industry, I am pleased to say that by all measures Tidewater was able to successfully navigate these challenges to deliver one of the best years in recent memory, demonstrating the resilience of the company we’ve endeavored to build over the last eight years. The business generated year-over-year revenue growth, gross margin expansion and average day rate growth. Adjusted EBITDA grew by approximately 7% to just under $600 million and we generated nearly $430 million of free cash flow, far outpacing our free cash flow generation in 2024. In addition, we retired approximately 2.5 million shares through open market repurchases and netting shares related to taxes on employee share awards that would have otherwise entered the market. Lastly, we successfully reset our debt capital structure this summer and established a sizable revolving credit facility, positioning Tidewater with one of the strongest balance sheets in the offshore vessel industry. All the success we realized in 2025 is due to a persistent focus across the organization to excellence and I appreciate the effort of all employees during 2025 to achieve these outcomes.

 

 

 

 

“The fourth quarter of 2025 nicely exceeded our expectations as vessel up-time across the fleet continued to exceed our original expectations, delivering revenue of $336.8 million and a gross margin of 48.7%. Vessel up-time improvement came through a combination of more time on-hire, lower than anticipated down for repair time and fewer drydock days than anticipated. The improvement in utilization is a function of certain projects extending longer than anticipated and the benefits realized from the substantial investments made in the fleet over the past few years to improve the operational reliability of our fleet. Day rates also slightly exceeded our expectations driven by our Middle East and Asia Pacific segments. Through this outperformance, we finished the year on a strong note with Adjusted EBITDA of $143.1 million and free cash flow of $151.2 million for the fourth quarter.

 

“Additionally, during the fourth quarter, we completed a strategic internal restructuring of our vessel ownership (Vessel Realignment) to consolidate a significant portion of the fleet into a single, wholly-owned U.S. entity. The non-cash deferred tax benefit of $201.5 million recognized in 2025 is primarily due to the impact of the Vessel Realignment.

 

“Subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter, we announced the acquisition of Wilson Sons Ultratug, a 22-vessel fleet of PSVs exclusively focused on serving the Brazilian market. We are very excited to announce this acquisition as it continues our strategy of bringing high-quality fleets onto the Tidewater platform. We have long discussed our desire to enter the Brazilian market in a more meaningful way, and we believe that the Wilson acquisition represents the best path to benefit from the secular trends occurring in that market. The Brazilian offshore vessel market is the largest in the world and given some of the structural factors influencing vessel demand in that market, coupled with the favorable position we will hold with Brazilian-built tonnage and the ability to import and protect Tidewater’s legacy international tonnage, we view this acquisition as creating a distinctly advantaged position for Tidewater on a long-term basis.

 

“Looking forward to the remainder of 2026, although some open questions exist relating to the pace of drilling activity throughout this year, recent comments from offshore drillers and leading indicators of tendering and new contract awards suggest that a recovery in offshore drilling should manifest as we progress through the year and into 2027. Tidewater remains advantaged by the broad set of demand drivers for our business in addition to drilling support, including production support, offshore construction support, and subsea and EPCI support. As we experienced in 2025, we believe this broad-based set of demand drivers will continue to support our business as we progress through 2026. Vessel supply remains sufficiently tight such that we have maintained day rates and puts us in a position to again push day rates as offshore drilling activity picks up and our customers begin to secure vessels for future work. When we combine this with the recently announced Wilson acquisition, we are optimistic about the continued growth for our business during 2026. As such, we are updating our 2026 financial guidance to contemplate the impact of the Wilson acquisition, with our new full-year revenue guidance of $1.43 to $1.48 billion and a full-year gross margin guidance of 49% to 51%, assuming a mid-year close of the Wilson acquisition. To the extent that the offshore drilling recovery begins in earnest towards the end of the year, this development could increase our full-year expectations.

 

“As pleased as we are with the success we realized during 2025, I am optimistic that the outlook for our business is as good as it’s been since the offshore recovery began a few years ago. With the addition of the Wilson fleet, we have meaningfully increased the earnings and cash flow profile of the business and have gained critical mass in the largest offshore vessel market in the world. We anticipate the substantial free cash flow of the business to continue and given the low level of leverage projected for the Wilson acquisition, we expect to retain substantial financial flexibility to continue to pursue incremental capital allocation opportunities.

 

“Tidewater’s ability to continue to execute both operationally and financially is the product of a global effort by many hard-working employees both onshore and offshore and I would like to thank our entire team for their continued efforts. The dedication and diligence driving these outcomes is critical to our mission to make Tidewater the safest, most sustainable, most reliable, most profitable, highest specification offshore energy support vessel fleet in the world.”

Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash indemnification assets charge (credit) included in interest income and other; non-cash stock-based compensation expense; loss on early extinguishment of debt; and acquisition, restructuring and integration related costs.

 

Note (B):  EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and for each of the prior four quarters includes non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $3,454, $3,481, $4,057, $3,491 and $3,886 respectively.

 

Note (C):  EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and for each of the prior four quarters includes foreign exchange gain (losses) of $2,134, $1,277, $11,703, $7,569 and $(14,337) respectively.

 

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

  $ 151,175     $ 82,659     $ 97,541     $ 94,664     $ 107,025  

  

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:
