Memo

Tenaris SA (TS). Latest full fiscal year: 2025; data up to 2025-12-31.

Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 12.0 bn USD in 2025; YoY growth -4.3%; net margin 16.1%; ROE 11.6%.

The estimated value range is 19.45–33.81 USD per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: low); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 25.40 USD, the price of 56.53 USD leaves a potential of -55.1% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of -122.5% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.

Insufficient data for a verdict (score weight coverage: 52.1% of at least 60%).

Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

What supports the thesis

  • ROIC: 11.2%
  • Net margin: 16.1%
  • Interest coverage: 48.6x
  • Current ratio: 3.9x

What contradicts it

  • Revenue CAGR 3Y: 0.6%
  • P/E (TTM): 31.4x
  • The price is above the estimated value range
  • The valuation methods diverge

Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): FCF conversion, EPS CAGR 3Y, Net debt / EBITDA, EV/EBITDA, FCF yield, Payout ratio (FCF).

In brief

Tenaris is a global producer of high-specification steel pipe, mainly for the oil and gas industry, with related services at the rig. In fiscal 2025 it reported net sales of 12.0 billion USD and EBITDA of 2.9 billion USD, in an environment shaped by US tariffs and the Middle East conflict.1

SWOT

Strengths

  • The company has a globally integrated industrial structure and a net cash position at the end of 2025.1
  • Local US production covers most sales in that market, reducing exposure to tariffs.1
  • Rig services and high-specification products differentiate it from competitors selling only standard pipe.1

Weaknesses

  • Revenue depends heavily on the oil and gas industry, which is volatile.1
  • Exposure to Pemex and other state-owned customers in high-risk regions can affect collections and profitability.1
  • Operations in Argentina and Mexico are exposed to macroeconomic instability and currency controls.1

Opportunities

  • Offshore and gas projects in Guyana, Suriname and the Black Sea could generate new long-term orders.1
  • Expanding fracturing and coiled tubing services in Argentina could grow service revenue.1
  • A return to activity in Venezuela and higher investment in the Middle East could open new contracts.1

Threats

  • Tariffs on imported steel and trade restrictions could raise costs and reduce competitiveness.1
  • A prolonged Middle East conflict could disrupt operations and supply chains.1
  • Climate regulation could reduce demand for oil industry products and raise compliance costs.1

Risks

  • Dependence on oil and gas investmenthigh

    Demand for pipe depends on rig counts and oil prices; price declines could reduce output and orders.1

  • Geopolitical risk and sanctionshigh

    Armed conflicts, sanctions and trade disruptions can affect operations, deliveries and access to customers in several countries.1

  • Exposure to Pemexmedium

    Payment delays by Pemex and possible non-payment could affect revenue and profitability in Mexico.1

  • Climate policy and compliance costsmedium

    Carbon taxes, emissions trading and CBAM can raise costs and capital spending needs.1

  • Physical climate riskslow

    Extreme weather can shut facilities, disrupt supply chains and raise insurance costs.1

Investment thesis

What would need to be true (bull case)

  • If offshore and frontier investment accelerates, the company's order book could grow meaningfully in coming years.1
  • Integrated US production and a net cash position give flexibility against tariffs and volatility.1
  • Rig services and high-specification products could support margins even in a competitive market.1

What would break the thesis

  • If oil prices fall or rig counts shrink, pipe revenue could decline quickly.1
  • The Middle East conflict and tariffs could raise costs and disrupt deliveries, weighing on margins.1
  • Exposure to state-owned customers and to countries with macroeconomic instability could affect collections and cash flow.1

Products, market & competition

AI-generatedAI-generated analysis (Claude) from cited public sources; it may contain errors. Not investment advice. As of 27 Oct 2026 · Model: claude-haiku-5-5.

Possibly outdated: the newest document it read is from 31 Mar 2026; since then the company filed 6-K (11 Aug 2026), 6-K (07 Aug 2026), 6-K (13 May 2026).

The business

The company manufactures and delivers tubular steel products, including OCTG, the tubing used for drilling and completing wells, along with line pipe, and provides associated services through its Rig Direct model.1 Operations are globally integrated, with its own industrial units and a flexible supply chain.1 Results rest on a net cash position and on distributing free cash flow to shareholders.1

In 2025 results stayed stable, with EBITDA of 2.9 billion USD and net income of 2.0 billion USD on net sales of 12.0 billion USD.1 The company proposes raising the annual dividend per share by 7%.1 Management describes a difficult geopolitical environment and lower activity in key markets, in which the global structure helped it respond quickly.1

Tenaris operates in the US, Canada, Latin America, the Middle East and other regions, with its own operations in several countries.1 The company is controlled by San Faustin S.A., named as controlling shareholder in the annual report.1 Its decentralised structure and global presence are presented as strengths with energy-sector customers.1

Segments

Pipes and services for the oil industry

This main segment covers OCTG and rig services, with 90% of US sales supplied from local production.1 The company adds services such as RunReady and well integrity to raise safety and efficiency for customers.1

Pipelines and offshore projects

Tenaris supplies line pipe and coatings for offshore and gas projects, including in Guyana, Suriname and the Black Sea.1 The Vaca Muerta Sur and Duplicar Norte pipelines in Argentina are cited as delivered or in supply.1

Fracturing and coiled tubing services

In Argentina the company is expanding a new hydraulic fracturing and coiled tubing business, with a third equipment set expected by year end.1 This service complements pipe deliveries and supports growth in the Vaca Muerta basin.1

Market context

Demand for high-specification pipe depends on the number of rigs, the depth and complexity of wells, and oil and gas prices.1 The company shows major operators redirecting investment toward offshore and frontier regions, which could renew its order book.1 Fewer rigs in the US and Canada and industry consolidation have reduced activity in some markets.1

Tariffs and geopolitical tensions make the market more volatile, and the Middle East conflict may affect deliveries and energy costs.1 State-owned companies in OPEC countries are among important customers, and their production decisions influence demand.1

Trends

  • US tariffs on steel importsmixed

    Extension of Section 232 tariffs to all steel products, rising to 50%, has raised costs on imported inputs.1 The company responded with higher US production, which covers 90% of its US sales.1

  • Middle East conflict and the Hormuz Straitmixed

    The closure of the Hormuz Strait, through which almost 20% of world oil and LNG supply passes, has caused extreme energy price volatility.1 Operations in the region could be affected, and a prolonged disruption could slow the global economy.1

  • Offshore and frontier investmenttailwind

    Major operators are seeking new reserves in deep water and frontier regions, which can generate orders for complex pipe and coatings.1 The company is already working on projects such as Sparta 20K and GranMorgu.1

  • Climate regulation and the energy transitionheadwind

    Emissions legislation, carbon pricing and renewable energy policies could reduce demand for oil and gas.1 The company invests in efficiency and wind farms to reduce emissions intensity.1

Competitive position

The global steel pipe market is competitive, and pricing pressure could reduce market share and margins.1 Consolidation in the oil industry and productivity gains among US operators also shape prices and volumes.1

Tenaris differentiates through products for complex operations, rig services and integrated production across several regions.1 Its edge rests on fast, large-scale delivery, which could support its position in key markets.1
