Bristow Group stock (ISIN US11040G1031) closed at USD 40.31 on the NYSE on October 6, 2026, down 0.30 percent from the prior session. The company enters the next reporting cycle with higher quarterly revenue and adjusted EBITDA, but diluted EPS missed the latest consensus estimate.

Revenue rises in Q2

Bristow Group reported USD 411.8 million of revenue for Q2 2026, compared with USD 388.7 million in Q1 2026. That sequential increase of USD 23.1 million came as seasonal activity, rates and fuel revenue supported the Offshore Energy Services and Other Services businesses.

Adjusted EBITDA reached USD 79.8 million in Q2 2026, up from USD 59.3 million in the preceding quarter. The company attributed the improvement to higher revenue and USD 7.8 million in lower repairs and maintenance costs, according to its Q2 2026 earnings materials.

EPS miss offsets operating gains

Net income was USD 21.2 million, or USD 0.70 in diluted EPS, for Q2 2026. MarketBeat reported that the result missed the USD 0.89 consensus estimate by USD 0.19, even as revenue exceeded the USD 407.28 million consensus by USD 4.48 million.

Management had affirmed 2026 revenue guidance of USD 1.6 billion to USD 1.7 billion and adjusted EBITDA guidance of USD 295 million to USD 325 million in the Q2 update. The guidance range matters because it frames the earnings recovery against supply chain challenges and the integration of Berry Aviation, acquired for USD 105 million on July 13, 2026.

Consensus stays above the share price

MarketBeat lists a Moderate Buy consensus based on four analysts, with a USD 60.00 average, high and low price target. The target lies 48.9 percent above the USD 40.31 closing price, giving the valuation discussion a clear numerical reference rather than relying on a general bullish label.

A separate company-related aviation catalyst came on September 17, 2026, when Bristow expanded its early delivery reservations for Elroy Air's Chaparral autonomous cargo aircraft to 15 positions from five, as Financial Times reported. The reservation is an operational option, while the release also states that the positions are early delivery reservations rather than completed aircraft sales.

Stock closes at USD 40.31

Bristow Group stock closed at USD 40.31 on the NYSE on October 6, 2026, while MarketBeat showed market capitalization of USD 1.2 billion in its latest stock overview. The combination of stronger operating figures, an EPS miss and a consensus target of USD 60.00 leaves execution and guidance delivery as the central valuation checkpoints.
