The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~January 25, 2027 (estimated)

W&T Offshore Inc's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 20.3% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 16.4%. Where it lags: stock pay as % of revenue of 4.2% ranks 44 of 47 oil & gas exploration & production companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$4.8 per share in the base case (~$3.3–$6.7 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 112.8% while net income grew 65.3%: a 47pp divergence.

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

Fundamentalytics rating

model v1.6 · 2026-11-03

Not rated: only 2 valuation models apply; a rating needs 3.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of W&T Offshore Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $43.3M, 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.

Valuation models

We value W&T Offshore Inc as an oil and gas producer, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 7.5%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.57 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Proved-reserve net asset value The SEC standardised measure of the company's proved oil and gas reserves (future net cash flows after tax at SEC average prices, discounted at 10%) less debt and other claims, per share. ~$3.2 Primary model, counts double
Cash-flow model (DCF) Free cash flow to the firm (after stock pay, with after-tax interest added back), grown then faded to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5% as the firm rate, less debt and other claims. ~$4.8 ~$3.3–$6.7 Included
Price-to-earnings vs peers Earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) price-to-earnings. — Does not apply: no positive earnings in the latest twelve months
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: book value or earnings not available
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. — Does not apply: return on equity is not positive
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (proved-reserve net asset value) 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. ~$3.8 ~$3.2–$4.8 2 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare W&T Offshore Inc with oil and gas producers in our coverage, using third-party market data. Model values are estimates under stated assumptions, updated as new filings arrive; not price targets or investment advice. How each model works.

Moat

51 /100

Moderate moat

How hard W&T Offshore's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 7 / 20

    Net income has been a median 5.6% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Durability 3 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 12.2%; its worst year was -10.1%.

  • Cash conversion 16 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 6 of 6 years, at a median 11.5% of revenue.

  • Discipline 15 / 20

    The diluted share count rose 5.6% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 1.4% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Low. In this industry, the business rests on physical assets, regulated networks or products AI itself depends on.

Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts (US and foreign periodic filings); column headings link to the filing. EBITDA is operating income plus depreciation and amortisation. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Growth is left blank when last year's figure was a loss or under 2% of revenue. Share counts and EPS are restated for stock splits. A dash means the company didn't report the figure.
