Strong update, Q2 revenue 11% ahead of consensus
TGS reports a strong operational update and expects POC revenue of USD 400m in Q2’26 ~11% above cons./PAS primarily
driven by strong multi-client performance in Latin America and Africa, thus we expect high late sales. Vessel utilization
came in above expectations on higher than expected multi-client activity, with OBN crews largely in line, and MC
investments also above. We expect revise revenue up reflecting the beat on both higher late sales and early sales, FCF will
be more up, and EBIT/EPS less on higher accelerated amortization. HOLD, TP NOK 150.

Key highlights
• The company expects produced revenue of USD ~400m vs. company collected consensus of USD 359m
• The beat is primarily driven by high multi-client performance in Latin America and Africa, thus we expect high late sales in the quarter,
with MC utilization and investments also above we also expect to lift early sales
