Analysis
Tidewater Inc (TDGMW) currently trades at $98.80, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $70.79, implying the stock looks roughly 39.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Energy sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of $647.71 per share, and 26 of the 26 models we run sit above the $98.80 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $119.27, and 0 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Tidewater Inc generated revenue of $1.3B at a net margin of 22.2%. Revenue declined 43.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 24.0%. Net debt stands at $76.1M. Fundamentals as of Aug 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $52.83 (bear case) to $203.05 (bull case); at $98.80, the current price sits within that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades near its 52-week high and 173% above its 52-week low. For context, the median of 10 Energy peers we cover trades at −41% fair-value upside, at −28%, TDGMW screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($2,664) versus Dividend Discount ($119.27). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (77).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 64 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 77
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
