- Friday, November 2, 2012, 10:58 AM T. Boone Pickens sees natural gas prices rising to $4.50 or $5 in the next year and perhaps $6 by 2015, and suggests two energy favorites: National Oilwell Varco (NOV), due to its huge shale opportunity for development with support remaining for oil domestically and internationally, and Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD), pointing to its 900K acres of assets, particularly in the Permian basin. 10 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, October 25, 2012, 12:27 PM National Oilwell Varco (NOV -4.1%) posted better than expected Q3 profits and enjoyed solid demand for deepwater equipment, but shares are down sharply on worries about the stalled U.S. land drilling market. Demand for NOV's products and services continued to grow in international markets, but softened in North America, which accounts for half its revenue. 4 Comments [Energy, Earnings, On the Move]
- Thursday, October 25, 2012, 9:17 AM National Oilwell Varco (NOV): Q3 EPS of $1.52 beats by $0.01. Revenue of $5.32B (+42.2% Y/Y) in-line. (PR) 1 Comment [Energy, Earnings]

- Monday, October 22, 2012, 12:24 PM National Oilwell Varco (NOV +0.5%) is poised to grow rapidly in the next few years, according to a weekend Barron's report. "You're looking at a $100 stock in two years," one analyst says, and NOV should trade at a premium to smaller firms such as CAM and FTI in light of its strong earnings visibility, 6%-8% free-cash-flow yield and prime market position. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, October 10, 2012, 8:18 AM National Oilwell Varco (NOV) and Robbins & Myers (RBN) receive a request from the Justice Department for further information and documents related to their proposed $2.5B merger. The DOJ request is in line with its oversight duties under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, October 3, 2012, 11:18 AM National Oilwell Varco (NOV -1%) is resumed with a Buy rating at Goldman Sachs, which calls NOV a key beneficiary of the current rig newbuild cycle. Also, Goldman expects above-expectation growth as NOV makes additional acquisitions and enhances value through its superior manufacturing expertise and industry-leading distribution. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, September 19, 2012, 5:48 PM A fat-finger error was the cause of unusual trading activity yesterday afternoon in Rowan (RDC), National Oilwell Varco (NOV) and five other oil-related stocks, WSJ reports. This sort of quirky action isn’t as rare as one might think; Nasdaq canceled some trades of Tyco (TYC) in a separate incident today, and a flash crash in crude oil prices occurred Monday. Comment! [Commodities]
- Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 9:58 AM Aging fleets and new safety requirements are sparking a boom in orders for deep-sea drilling rigs and related equipment, boosting the profits of companies such as National Oilwell Varco (NOV) and Cameron (CAM) that make the equipment. Just yesterday (I, II), Transocean (RIG) and Rowan (RDC) made arrangements for new rigs to be equipped with dual blowout preventers. Comment! [Energy]
- Monday, September 10, 2012, 11:31 AM A move by Petrobras (PBR -1%) to seek a partner to invest in its U.S. offshore deepwater oil fields suggests PBR has figured out how to extract oil from the difficult site in the Gulf of Mexico. The news could be a positive for National Oilwell Varco (NOV -0.3%), which has been acquiring companies that make parts for FPSO vessels PBR has deployed off Brazil and West Africa. Comment! [Energy]
- Wednesday, August 22, 2012, 5:08 PM Conditions are ripe for large oilfield service and equipment companies - think HAL, SLB, NOV, CAM, FTI - to continue to snap up smaller firms and assets, Barclays says, citing new regulations encouraging high-specification equipment, operator demand for equipment capable of increasing efficiencies, and the ongoing build-out in offshore markets. (also) 1 Comment [Energy, M&A]
- Tuesday, August 21, 2012, 2:52 PM Stock investors have reacted in a subdued way to recent deals (I, II, III) for oilfield services firms that should boost the earnings of buyers, including National Oilwell Varco (NOV), FMC Tech (FTI) and Chicago Bridge & Iron (CBI), Tudor Pickering analysts say. Most of the targets, such as Pure Energy, have “healthy” exposure to North America, which analysts say investors "still view skeptically." Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Thursday, August 16, 2012, 9:02 AM National Oilwell Varco (NOV) declares $0.12/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous. Forward yield 0.63%. For shareholders of record Sep 14. Payable Sep 28. Ex-div date Sep 12. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]
