Patterson-UTI is cash flow positive despite U.S. oilfield activity being at a cyclical bottom. A rebound in natural gas drilling in 2025 will be a strong call on the company's premium equipment that is already in short supply. Even if gas drilling doesn't rebound soon, the generous buyback program should provide support for the stock price.
Commodity cycles require downturns to cool demand and rebalance supply. Without them, spikes in crude oil and natural gas prices may become the norm. Patterson-UTI's valuation is now about the same as past recession lows during 2020, 2009, and 2001. Any unexpected upturn in oil/gas prices should lead to sizable investor gains in PTEN. Various technical momentum indicators have been reversing higher since May, which could be a good omen price will soon follow.
