Diamond Offshore (Hold, TP: USD10.00) - Higher than expected 2019 capex

Diamond Offshore has reported Q4 EBITDA of USD49m, which was in line with both our estimate and consensus. With several upgrades and special surveys, guided 2019 capex is well above our expectations. However, in the long term we believe fleet investments will translate into more contracts. Still, we have cut our target price to USD10 (11) and we maintain HOLD.
