Reflecting broader shifts in the offshore services sector, Tidewater Inc. announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, revealing significant pressure on bottom-line growth. The company reported net income of $21.7 million, a sharp decline from the $72.9 million recorded in the prior year.
