Oil States International Inc. (OIS) is not a strong buy for a beginner, long-term investor with $50,000-$100,000 available for investment. The stock lacks significant positive catalysts, has weak financial performance, and hedge funds are selling heavily. While technical indicators are moderately bullish, the absence of strong trading signals and poor financial trends suggest holding off on investing at this time.
The technical indicators show a moderately bullish trend with MACD above 0 and positively contracting, RSI in the neutral zone at 57.231, and bullish moving averages (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200). Key support is at 8.059, and resistance is at 9.373. However, the pre-market price is down 0.77%, indicating some short-term weakness.
The gross margin increased by 6.79% YoY in Q3 2025, indicating some operational efficiency improvements. Additionally, the stock has a 70% chance of gaining 6.32% in the next month based on historical patterns.
Hedge funds are selling heavily, with a 54597.73% increase in selling activity over the last quarter. Analysts maintain a neutral rating, and there are no strong signals from AI Stock Picker or SwingMax.
In Q3 2025, revenue dropped by 5.26% YoY to $165.18M, net income declined by 113.24% YoY to $1.9M, and EPS fell by 113.04% YoY to $0.03. However, gross margin improved by 6.79% YoY to 14.78%. Overall, financial performance is weak.
Susquehanna raised the price target from $6.50 to $8 but maintained a Neutral rating. Analysts note that U.S. drilling and completions activity held up better than expected, but there is no strong bullish sentiment.
