WHD Cactus, Inc.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Cactus reported Q1 2026 revenue of $388.3M (+38.5% YoY) and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.70, beating consensus of $0.67 by 4.5%. GAAP diluted EPS was a loss of $0.70 due to a $81.5M non-cash accretion charge. Operating income declined to $49.5M from $68.6M a year ago, weighed by acquisition-related adjustments. The Cactus International acquisition closed on Jan 1 and contributed to revenue growth, but integration costs and Middle East uncertainty temper the outlook.
Actionable Insight
Focus on the adjusted EPS beat and revenue growth from Cactus International, but watch for continued integration costs and Middle East disruptions. The GAAP loss is non-cash and should be ignored. Next catalyst is Q2 guidance on the conference call; management expects Pressure Control revenue flat and Spoolable Technologies up sequentially.
