Valaris, a leading offshore driller, is facing short-term challenges due to idle rigs and deferred oil company CapEx, resulting in reduced 2024 EBITDA guidance. However, the company has a strong financial position and positive long-term prospects with expected offshore oil production growth and potential sector recovery from 2026. Management will provide 2025 guidance with Q4 earnings, which could present a buying opportunity if market expectations are disappointed.
