Nabors Industries (NBR) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Nabors Industries (NBR) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Nabors Industries has demonstrated significant year-over-year growth in day margins, reaching $17,931, primarily due to incremental SANAD newbuilds, reflecting enhanced operational efficiency. The company's positive outlook is supported by potential catalysts such as higher commodity prices, which may spur increased exploration and production spending, as well as improved pricing for services and utilization rates. Additionally, the recent $625 million sale of Quail Tools has improved Nabors' financial leverage, addressing upcoming debt maturities and enhancing its risk/reward profile in a competitive market.
Bears say
Nabors Industries has faced significant challenges, including a $30 million shortfall in expected collections from Mexico, which negatively impacted free cash flow and EBITDA projections. The company's 3Q25 EBITDA is now estimated to decrease by 6% to $234 million, with further reductions of 16% and 15% anticipated for 2026 and 2027, respectively. Additionally, Nabors Industries' leveraged balance sheet, burdened by $2.5 billion in maturities over the next seven years, raises concerns about the risk-reward equation for the stock in the near term.
