Fundamental quality

ATTRACTIVE

75

out of 100

Baker Hughes Co earns a fundamental-quality score of 75 out of 100, profiling it as a company with solid fundamentals. Its score rests mainly on its financial strength (net debt 0.11× EBITDA). Its weakest area is its growth (revenue +5.5%/yr). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.

What the company does

Baker Hughes is the third of the big oilfield-services firms, with a different hand: besides equipping wells, it builds the turbines and compressors that liquefy natural gas and, increasingly, hydrogen and carbon-capture technology. Half oil, half transition.

What will shape its future

  • The LNG investment cycle, where its turbines are the world standard.
  • Global drilling spend, its classic, cyclical half.
  • New energies (hydrogen, CO2 capture), the future option inside the group.
