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

Strengths

  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 4.2 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • High operating margin. 27.4% of revenue is left as operating profit, against a median of 7.2% for oil & gas equipment & services companies we cover.
  • Estimates rising. Analysts' consensus for next year's earnings per share has risen 6.3% over 90 days.

Things to watch

  • High debt. Long-term debt exceeds cash by $2.6bn, more than 1.5 times annual revenue.
  • High earnings multiple. The shares trade at 50 times the last 12 months' earnings, so expectations are demanding.
  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was 6% of net income over the last 12 months.
  • Below peers: long-term debt as % of assets. Long-term debt as % of assets of 49.5% ranks 29 of 32 oil & gas equipment & services companies we cover (median 22.6%).
  • Below peers: stock pay as % of revenue. Stock pay as % of revenue of 1.9% ranks 27 of 32 oil & gas equipment & services companies we cover (median 1.1%).
  • Heavily shorted. 10.4% of the shares available to trade are sold short (4.3 days of average volume to cover).

Fundamentalytics rating

model v1.6 · 2026-11-03

Not rated: valued with our growth model, which doesn't carry a Buy/Hold/Sell rating yet.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Kodiak Gas Services, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $34.3M, FY2026 Q2 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.

Valuation models

We value Kodiak Gas Services, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 9.5%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.02 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Growth cash-flow model Revenue for this year and next from analysts' consensus, then growth fading to 2.5%; the operating margin moving to profitable peers'; investment needed per dollar of growth from peers; reduced by a failure probability. For young or fast-growing companies. The starting margin is normalized to between -100% and 60%; net margin is a proxy when operating income is not tagged. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$7.7 Left out: out of range vs price (0.17x)
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$44 ~$40–$56 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. ~$24 ~$19–$30 Included
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. ~$25 ~$23–$28 Included
Forward price-to-sales vs peers Next year's consensus sales per share times peers' typical forward price-to-sales; only when earnings are negative. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. — Does not apply: earnings are positive: price-to-earnings is the better measure
Revenue-to-maturity model Revenue grown to maturity with the cash margin moving to the industry's; for companies not yet profitable. — Does not apply: revenue and margins don't support a positive value
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (growth cash-flow model) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$31 ~$24–$44 3 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Kodiak Gas Services, Inc. with Oil & Gas Equipment & Services in our coverage, using third-party market data.
