Forum Energy Technologies: Management Keeps Delivering
Summary FET’s Q2 showed again that it can gain market share while improving margins, even despite the global rig count declines. They have recurring consumables, subsea exposure, and specialized equipment that diversify it beyond just a rig-cycle rebound. Saudi Arabia and UAE facilities create customer proximity, but they also add direct regional disruption risk. Still, I don’t think FET is as obviously cheap as before. But if management’s guidance materializes, I believe the valuation remains compelling today. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaNarrative Update • Aug 04

Oil Bulls Should Pay Close Attention To Forum Energy Technologies
Summary Forum Energy Technologies is a global manufacturer of a variety of products used in the oil, gas, industrial, and renewable energy sectors. Strong year-over-year performance can be mainly attributed to the Variperm acquisition that took place in January 2024. 2025 guidance indicates a mediocre year with declining EBITDA and FCF, but debt repayment could improve future EPS.

Forum Energy Technologies: A Stock Buying Back 40% Of Its Market Cap
Summary Forum Energy Technologies announced a US$75 million share buyback program, to address the issue of stock undervaluation. The share repurchase program of such a magnitude seems to be supported by the balance sheet, business fundamentals, and especially anticipated FCF in the foreseeable future.

Forum Energy Non-GAAP EPS of -$0.45, revenue of $191M; issues FY23 EBITDA guidance
Forum Energy press release (NYSE:FET): Q4 Non-GAAP EPS of -$0.45. Revenue of $191M (+29.0% Y/Y). Orders received were $215M, with a book-to-bill ratio of 113%. "Looking ahead, on-going global supply and demand imbalances for commodities are creating long-term opportunities for energy investment that will benefit FET. Given the industry’s focus on profitability and shareholder returns, we anticipate modest U.S. rig count growth during 2023. However, equipment utilization and service intensity are expected to remain at extremely high levels. In addition, offshore and international market activity growth, particularly in the Middle East and Latin America, should accelerate in 2023 and serve as the engine that sustains a multi-year investment cycle. With these assumptions, our EBITDA guidance range for 2023 is $80 to $100 million."Seeking Alpha • Dec 29
