The analyst's take on Helmerich & Payne, Inc.
Helmerich & Payne, Inc. has grown revenue from $1.62B to $3.75B over the last 10 fiscal years, compounding about 16.1% a year. The most recent year was up 35.9%, so growth is actually accelerating.
Net margin sits at -4.4%, down 16.9 points year over year. It carries about $2.06B of total debt.
At today's valuation the market is pricing in roughly 14.8% annual free-cash-flow growth — versus the -21.8% it actually delivered over the last five years, so the price already assumes a step-up from the recent record. The one thing worth a second look in the filings is receivables growing faster than sales.
