The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~January 27, 2027 (estimated)

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 10.6% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 7.1%. Where it stands out: change in share count of -6.0% ranks 1 of 31 oil & gas equipment & services companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$110 per share in the base case (~$80–$150 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Revenue growth accelerating: TTM revenue growth rose to 10.6% (+6.7pp vs the prior quarter).

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Priced below our value. The share price of $77.62 is 41% below our value per share of $110.
  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 6.7 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 18.7 points on a year ago.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 6.0% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.

Things to watch

  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 54% and a beta of 0.9 against the S&P 500.

What the price is pricing in

The share price implies about 2.3% a year of cash-flow growth for five years.That is slower than the 10.1% a year revenue growth Forum Energy Technologies has delivered.

  • Priced in2.3%
  • Last 12 months10.6%
  • 3 years a year5.5%

Our cash-flow model with every input fixed except growth over the next five years, solved for the growth at which the model value equals the share price ($77.80, Nov 3, 2026). Cash-flow growth then fades to 2.5% a year; discount rate 8.5%. Delivered figures are revenue growth from SEC filings.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Forum Energy Technologies, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($61.4M, FY2026 Q3 TTM), growing 6.9% and 7.6% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 8% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$80–~$150 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Forum Energy Technologies, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $61.4M, FY2026 Q3 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Forum Energy Technologies, Inc.’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: fundamentals grade B (needs B+ or better).

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: the shares trade below our fair value: a collar caps upside the model expects.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
