Over the 3 days period starting from April 15, 2018, W&T Offshore’s stock price experienced steep price rise of more than 18%. Taking into account the overall WTI stock performance of +68.88% since the fiscal year start (WTI’s fiscal year end is December 31), it is reasonable to suggest that this is the result of the company’s sustainable growth over recent months. So what is the driver behind that growth  and what happened during 2017 financial year and keeps the company stock price to rise over time? In 2017 the company finally received net profit rather than losses during the previous years – profit of $79.68 mln. in 2017 versus loss of $249.02 mln. in 2016.
