Oil States International Inc. (OIS) Dividend Safety Gauge & 10-Year DRIP Compounder

Per the Roarable RQD rating, OIS scores 46 out of 100, a letter grade of D, with the verdict "Roarable Sell — Underperform / Distribution Warning." The five pillars are:

• Fundamental Cash Engine: 10 / 20. The rating cites ROIC of -15.4% alongside an FCF yield of 19.19%. The two figures point in opposite directions: the company is destroying returns on invested capital while the free-cash-flow yield screens high. For a prospective investor, the high FCF yield is an upside argument only if cash generation proves durable; the negative ROIC signals that the capital base is not currently earning its cost.
• Whale / 13F Flow: 10 / 20. The rating references institutional accumulation and options positioning. The underlying holder detail is not provided in this dataset (see Analyst View section), so the score cannot be traced to specific filings here.
• Insider Conviction: 9 / 20. The rating references SEC Form 4 and Congressional PTR cluster flow. No transaction-level detail is supplied, so the investor cannot verify the direction or size of insider activity from this source.
• Macro Regime Fit: 7 / 20. The rating cites a Beta of 1.0 and sector sensitivity. A beta of 1.0 means the stock is expected to move broadly in line with the market, offering no defensive cushion; the lower pillar score reflects weak alignment with the prevailing regime.
• Forensic Balance Sheet: 10 / 20. The rating cites an Altman Z of 2.02, a Piotroski F of 4/9, and a Debt/Equity ratio of 0.5. A Z-score near 2 sits in a zone the Altman framework treats as one of caution, and a Piotroski score of 4 out of 9 indicates mixed rather than strong fundamental health.

Investor implications. The upside case rests on the FCF yield and the 52-week range ($5.5 - $14.5) showing the stock has traded well above its current $9.08 price, implying volatility in both directions. The valuation tradeoff is stark: with P/E, forward P/E, and EV/EBITDA unavailable in the source data, the investor cannot benchmark whether the current price reflects the high FCF yield or the operating losses. Operating margin of -14.6% and net margin of -16.3% mean the earnings base is currently negative, so earnings-based valuation is not supportable from this dataset. The composite rating is weighted toward caution, and a prospective investor should treat it as a flag to investigate rather than a signal to act. This is educational analysis, not personalized advice.

Per the SEC financials, revenue declined from $782.3M in FY 2023 to $669.0M in FY 2025, and operating income moved from $23.2M to $-98.0M over the same span. Net income swung from $12.9M to $-109.4M. Free cash flow remained positive in each reported year, at $105.1M in FY 2025. Per the market data, operating margin is -14.6%, net margin is -16.3%, and ROIC is -15.4%. Per the Roarable RQD rating, the Altman Z-Score is 2.02, the Piotroski F-Score is 4/9, and Debt/Equity is 0.5, pointing to a balance sheet of moderate leverage with mixed forensic signals.

Per the recent news feed, the company has several recent items referencing its quarterly results, with headlines including a Q3 earnings report, a Q3 2026 earnings call transcript, and coverage describing the stock climbing on Q3 results "as backlog builds." Other headlines frame the same results around "margin questions" and a rally that some observers missed. The source data does not include the reported figures from these Q3 releases, so the fundamental content of the catalyst cannot be verified here. The feed carries a mix of YELLOW and GREEN impact labels; the single GREEN item is a Yahoo Finance piece labeled CATALYST. Risk watch items are the margin questions raised in the coverage and the negative operating and net margins in the financials. The butterfly_supply_chain_graph reports supply_chain as NONE, no butterfly links, and no proprietary signals.

• What are the reported EPS, P/E, and EV/EBITDA figures, given that these fields are absent from the source data?
• What drove the swing from positive FY 2023 operating income to a $-98.0M loss in FY 2025, and is the negative trend continuing into the Q3 2026 results referenced in the news feed?
• What is the company's total debt and cash position by period, since the debt field is N/A across all three years?
• Do the Q3 results cited in the news feed show backlog growth or margin compression, and how do they reconcile with the negative operating margin?
• Who are the institutional and insider holders, and what is the direction of their recent activity behind the RQD whale and insider pillar scores?
