# Bristow Group Inc. (VTOL) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Energy / Energy Equipment & Services. Price $43.32, market value $1.3 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 12.4×** (5-yr avg 34.4×, 3-yr avg 9.5×). Bristow Group Inc. trades at 12.4× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 34.4×: cheap by its own standards. The Energy median in the September 2026 study was 16.8×. Forward P/E is 8.2×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.24**. A PEG of 0.24 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 0.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.8×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 1.2×**. The shares trade at 1.2× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 6.8×**. Enterprise value is 6.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -2.7%** (5-yr avg 0.0%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 8.0%**. The inverse of the P/E: 8.0% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 10.0%**. 10.0% of revenue is left after running the business.
- **Net margin: 8.7%**. 8.7% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 12.2%**. 12.2% on shareholders' equity is solid.
- **Return on invested capital: 8.6%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 8.6%.
- **Return on assets: 4.5%**. Each dollar of assets produces 4.5% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 5.3%** (3-yr 7.2%/yr, 5-yr 5.5%/yr). Revenue grew 5.3% over the last year, against 5.5% a year compounded over five years.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 34.6%** (3-yr 138.1%/yr, 5-yr 13.2%/yr). Earnings per share rose 34.6%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.63**. Debt is 0.63 times equity, moderate leverage.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 1.6×**. It would take 1.6 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, within the comfortable range.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.13**. A Z-score of 2.13 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
- **Piotroski F-score: 5/9**. 5 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

## Dividends

- **From 52-week high: -14.0%** (23.7% above the low). Trading 14% below its 52-week high.
- **200-day average: above**. The price sits above its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of an uptrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 41**. An RSI of 41 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.54** (volatility 32%). Beta of 0.54 against the S&P 500: the shares move much less than the market.
