Valaris (Buy, TP: USD65.00) - Operational leverage

Thanks to ongoing improvements in the ultra-deepwater segment, Valaris seems well placed to announce the reactivation of more UDW rigs in the coming quarters. As dayrates have established at the USD300k level, we estimate payback on reactivation at around one year, which we believe should make it appealing for management to reactivate more rigs, likely in a disciplined manner. We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to USD65 (50) on our new dayrate and asset-value assumptions.
