This co. has about the strongest fundamentals of any I've seen. A veritable cash factory! One thing I don't understand however is how eps will grow. Analysts are predicting rather impressive growth in eps, to say the least... but I wonder if that's entirely dependent on dayrate increases. I know they are building some new rigs (3-4) but that effect seems small. Also they may acquire another co. but I doubt analysts are relying on that in their calculations. Is it just all dayrates??
