Barclays maintains an 'Equalweight' on Bristow Group (NYSE: BRS) price target of $52.00.
Analyst, Anthony Walker, said, "We continue to believe Bristow will capitalize on the unfolding expansion in offshore and particularly deepwater spending, which should continue over the next decade. The ongoing new rig construction cycle and an unfolding recovery in the Gulf of Mexico also provide increased long-term earnings visibility."
However, Walker notes that competitor accidents may have taken a toll on the stock, with recent helicopter accidents in the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil and the North Sea. But, the dip in BRS's stock price should be looked at as an opportunity to get in on 'sale' pricing. Also, asset value of the company limited the downside of shares.
