Paragraph as it now reads, with added and removed wording marked:

The U.S. government imposed global tariffs on certain imported steel and aluminum products pursuant to Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as well as tariffs on imports of various Chinese product (including steel) pursuant to Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. In response, China and other countries have imposed retaliatory tariffs on a wide range of U.S. products, including those containing steel and aluminum. In 2019, the U.S. government entered into tariff agreements with Mexico and Canada to remove Section 232 tariffs, and, in 2021 and 2022, the U.S. government entered into tariff agreements with the European Union, Japan, and the United Kingdom to ease Section 232 tariffs on the close allies and trade partners, but Section 232 tariffs still remain in effect with respect to the other nations. In addition, the U.S. government issued a final determination pursuant to an anti-dumping duty order on certain hot-rolled steel products from Japan, in which it found imports of the subject merchandise were sold in the United States at prices below normal value during the October 2019 to September 2020 time period. As a result, the U.S. government assessed a dumping margin of 24.07% for imports from Japan of the subject steel products. Further, the U.S. government conducted a sunset review on its existing anti-dumping duty on certain hot-rolled steel products from Australia, Brazil, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the Netherlands, the Republic of Turkey, and the United Kingdom that was issued in 2016, and determined to continue the anti-dumping duty order on all subject steel products except for those from Brazil. More recently, the Trump Administration has proposedperiodically imposed significantly increased tariffs on foreign imports into the U.S., particularly from China, which may have impacted and may again impact our cost of raw materials. Our efforts to mitigate the impact of tariffs on raw materials through the diversification of our supply chain, exemption requests and other measures may not be sufficiently successful. Furthermore, a prolonged imposition of tariffs on our goods could have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations.

The oil and natural gas industry has historically experienced periodic reductions in the overall level of exploration and development activities in connection with declines in commodity prices. As a result, there are periodic reductions in the demand for our products and services, downward pressure on the prices that we charge and ultimately an adverse impact on our business. Although during 2023 and 2024, oil and gas prices and demand remained relatively steady, it is uncertain whether prices will maintain current levels, decline or increase. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the demand or pricing for oil and natural gas will follow historic patterns, including as a result of increased availability of alternative energy sources. Declines in oil and natural gas prices, decreased levels of exploration, development, and production activity, use of alternative sources of energy, and the willingness of customers to invest in their equipment relative to historical norms may negatively affect:

We cannotmay not accurately predict what or how many products our customers will need in the future. Orders are placed with our suppliers based on forecasts of customer demand and, in some instances, we may establish buffer inventories to accommodate anticipated demand. At certain times, we have builtbuild capital equipment before receiving customer orders. Our forecasts of customer demand are based on multiple assumptions, which havecan introducedintroduce errors into the estimates. In addition, many of our suppliers, such as those for certain of our standardized valves, require a longer lead time to provide products than our customers demand for delivery of our finished products. If we underestimate customer demand or if insufficient manufacturing capacity is available, we would miss revenue opportunities and potentially lose market share and damage our customer relationships. Conversely, if we overestimate customer demand, we would allocate resources to the purchase of material or manufactured products that we are not be able to sell when we expect to, if at all. As a result, we would hold excess or obsolete inventory, which would reduce gross margin and adversely affect financial results upon writing down the value of inventory. In addition, any future significant cancellations or deferrals of product orders or the return of previously sold products could materially and adversely affect profit margins, increase product obsolescence and restrict our ability to fund our operations.

Some of our customers have consolidated and are seeking to achieve economies of scale and pricing concessions. In addition, they aremay makingmake future investments in non-traditional oil and gas markets as part of the energy transition.markets. As a result, we may be unable to supply our traditional oil and gas products to these customers if we do not develop new technology that meets their changing needs. In addition, the consolidation of customers and focus on non-traditional energy investments could result in reduced spending by such companies or decreased demand for our existing products and services. Therefore, to counteract these pressures, any reduced spending or decreased demand for traditional energy products will need to be offset at the same or greater pace by sales to other customers or increased sales of renewable energy technologies that we develop. If we are not successful in offsetting such sales, there could be a significant negative impact on our results of operations or financial condition. We are unable to predict what effect consolidations and the energy transition in the industry may have on prices, spending by customers, selling strategies, competitive position, customer retention or our ability to negotiate favorable agreements with customers.

Should our supplierswe be unable to provideobtain the necessary raw materials or finished products or otherwise fail to deliver such materials and products timely andor in the quantities required, resulting delays in the provision of products or services to customers could have a material adverse effect on our business. For example, our Coiled TubingDownhole product line was unable to source a sufficient amount of steelcasing during the thirdfirst and fourth quartershalf of 20212025 to satisfy customer orders on a timely basis. In addition, because many of our products are manufactured out of steel, we are particularly susceptible to fluctuations in steel pricesprices, tariffs and tariffs.other duties. Our results of operations may be adversely affected by our inability to manage the rising costs and availability of raw materials and components used in our products. The availability and cost of raw materials and finished products may be impacted by macroeconomic demand, various national, regional, local, economic and political factors, supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures.

A deterioration in global economic conditions, including an economic slowdown or recession in the United States or in any other country that significantly affects the supply of or demand for oil or natural gas, inflation, geopolitical issues such as the continuing conflictconflicts betweenin RussiaVenezuela, Ukraine and Ukraine,the Middle East, the availability and cost of credit and supply chain disruptions, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Global economic conditions have a significant impact on oil and natural gas prices, and any stagnation or deterioration in these conditions could result in less demand for our products and services and could cause our customers to reduce their planned capital spending. Adverse global economic conditions also may cause our customers, vendors and/or suppliers to lose access to the financing necessary to sustain or increase their current level of operations, fulfill their commitments and/or fund future operations and obligations. Additionally, if inflation increases, we may be unable to raise pricing for our products and services at or above the rate of inflation, which could reduce our profit margins. In the past, global economic conditions, and expectations for future global economic conditions, have sometimes experienced significant deterioration in a relatively short period of time and there can be no assurance that global economic conditions or expectations for future global economic conditions will recover in the near term or not quickly deteriorate again due to one or more factors.

Many of our products are used in harsh environments and severe service applications. Our contracts with customers and customer requests for bids often set forth detailed specifications or technical requirements (including that they meet certain industrial code requirements, such as API, ASME or similar codes, or that our processes and facilities maintain ISO or similar certifications) for our products and services, which may also include extensive testing requirements. We anticipate that such code testing requirements will become more common in our contracts. We cannot assure that our products or facilities will be able to satisfy the specifications or requirements, or that we will be able to perform the full-scale testing necessary to prove that the product specifications are satisfied in future contract bids or under existing contracts, or that the costs of modifications to our products or facilities to satisfy the specifications and testing will not adversely affect our results of operations. If our products or facilities are unable to satisfy such requirements, or we are unable to perform or satisfy any required full-scale testing, we may suffer reputational harm and our customers may cancel their contracts and/or seek new suppliers, and our business, results of operations or financial position may be adversely affected.

The efficient operation of our business is dependent on our information technology (“IT”) systems (“systems”). Accordingly, we rely upon the capacity, reliability and security of our IT hardware and software infrastructure, much of which are outsourced to third parties, including in “cloud”-based platforms. Furthermore, we continuously expand and update our IT infrastructure to ensure it is secured from outside threats. Despite our implementation of security measures, which we believe are reasonable to mitigate the risks of a cybersecurity threat, our systems, and those of the third parties we engage, are vulnerable to computer viruses, malware, incursions by intruders or hackers, cyber terrorists, failures in hardware or software, power fluctuations, natural disasters, and other similar disruptions. Geopolitical tensions or conflicts may further heighten the risk of cyber threats.

Our success depends on our ability to develop and implement new product designs and improvements that meet our customers’ needs in a manner equal to or more effective than those offered by our competitors. If we are not able to continue to provide new and innovative services and technologies in a manner that allows us to meet evolving industry requirements, including the focus on renewable energy opportunities, at prices acceptable to our customers, our financial results would be negatively affected. In addition, some of our competitors are large national and multinational companies that we believe are able to devote greater financial, technical, manufacturing and marketing resources to research and develop more or better systems, services and technologies than we are able to do. Moreover, as a result of the currently depressed levels of customer activity, we may be unable to allocate sufficient amounts of capital to research and new product development activities, which may limit our ability to compete in the market and generate revenue.

Although we currently plan to return capital to shareholders, the amount and timing of returns of capital to shareholders may vary from time to time. The amount and timing of all returns of capital, including future purchases pursuant to our Repurchase Program (as defined below), if any, are subject to the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon business conditions, results of operations, financial condition, terms of our debt agreements and other factors. Our board of directors may, without advance notice, limit, suspend or terminate our Repurchase Program. There can be no assurance that we will make repurchases of our shares of common stock in the future. The repurchases could diminish our cash reserves, which may impact our ability to meet our working capital needs, satisfy our debt obligations, make capital expenditures, grow and pursue strategic opportunities and acquisitions. In addition, any elimination of, or downward revision in, the repurchases could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

Some of our operations involve risks of, among other things, property damage, which could curtail our operations. Disruptions in operations or damage to a manufacturing plant could reduce our ability to produce products and satisfy customer demand. In particular, we have offices and manufacturing facilities in Houston, Texas, and in various places throughout the U.S. Gulf Coast region. These offices and facilities are particularly susceptible to severe tropical storms and hurricanes, which may disrupt our operations. Damage to one or more of our manufacturing facilities by severe weather or any other disaster, accident, catastrophe or event, could significantly interrupt our operations. Similar interruptions could result from damage to production or other facilities that provide supplies or other raw materials to our plants or other stoppages arising from factors beyond our control. These interruptions might involve significant damage to property, among other things, and repairs might take a significant amount of time. For example, in the third quarter 2017,past we werehave been impacted by idled facilities and operations directly relateddue to Hurricanehurricane Harvey’s widespread damage in Texas and Louisiana.damage. As a result, our financial results were negatively impacted by foregone revenue and under-absorption of manufacturing costs, and, indirectly, due to supplier and logistical delays.

In past sessions, Congress has considered, but not passed, the adoption of legislation to provide for federal regulation of hydraulic fracturing under the SDWA and to require disclosure of the chemicals used in the hydraulic fracturing process. Some states have adopted, and other states are considering adopting, legal requirements that could impose more stringent permitting, public disclosure or well construction requirements on hydraulic fracturing activities or impose bans or moratoria on these activities altogether. Local governments also may seek to adopt ordinances within their jurisdictions regulating the time, place and manner of drilling activities in general or hydraulic fracturing activities in particular, in some cases banning hydraulic fracturing entirely. For example, the Colorado state legislature passed a package of hydraulic fracturing regulations in April 2019. Under the new law, the state oil and natural gas agency must review well locations for environmental protection criteria. In addition, the legislation broadened the authority for local governments to further regulate or restrict hydraulic fracturing. In April 2021, the California Governor’s Office directed state regulators to end the issuance of new permits for hydraulic fracturing, rules effective October 2024. In February 2018, the Oklahoma Corporation Commission released a protocol that requires operators to suspend hydraulic fracturing well completion operations in response to certain levels of seismic activity. In the absence of stringent federal restrictions, states and localities may increase attempts to pass such restrictions.

InFor example, in January 2021, former President Biden signed an executive order that, among other things, instructed the Secretary of the Interior to pause new oil and natural gas leases on public lands or in offshore waters pending completion of a comprehensive review and reconsideration of federal oil and natural gas permitting and leasing practices. Following that executive order, the acting Secretary of the Interior issued an order imposing a 60 day pause on the issuance of new leases, permits and right-of-way grants for oil and gas drilling on federal lands, unless approved by senior officials at the Department of the Interior. In March 2021, prior to the expiration of the Secretary of the Interior’s order, President Biden announced that career staff at the Department of the Interior would resume processing oil and gas drilling permits. In August 2022, a federal judge for the U.S. District Court of the Western District of Louisiana issued a permanent injunction against the pause of oil and natural gas leasing on public lands or in offshore waters of the thirteen plaintiff states that brought the lawsuit, which followed a June 2021 nationwide preliminary injunction by the district court that was subsequently vacated by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.

Environmental advocacy groups and regulatory agencies in the U.S. and other countries have focused considerable attention on the emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other GHGs and their potential role in climate change. In response to scientific studies suggesting that emissions of GHGs, including carbon dioxide and methane, are contributing to the warming of the Earth’s atmosphere and other climatic conditions, the U.S. Congress has periodically considered adopting comprehensive legislation to reduce emissions of GHGs, and approximately half of the states have already taken legal measures to reduce emissions of GHGs, primarily through measures to promote the use of renewable energy and/or regional GHG cap-and-trade programs. The EPA has attempted to regulate GHG emissions under the federal Clean Air Act (the “CAA”), though in recent years many such regulatory restrictions have been rolled back or are being reconsidered, leading to uncertainties in the federal regulatory landscape:

Reworded

•In December 2009, the EPA determined that emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and certain other GHGs endanger public health and the environment because emissions of such gases are, according to the EPA, contributing to warming of the Earth’s atmosphere and other climatic changes. InThe so-called “endangerment finding” has formed the basis for subsequent EPA regulation and rule promulgation. The Trump Administration has issued a proposal to rescind this endangerment finding and related rulemakings. For example, in October 2015, the EPA finalized the Clean Power Plan (“CPP”), which tried to impose additional obligations on the power generation sector to reduce GHG emissions. In August 2019, the EPA finalized the repeal of the 2015 regulations and replaced them with the Affordable Clean Energy rule (“ACE”), which designates heat rate improvement, or efficiency improvement, as the best system of emissions reduction for carbon dioxide from existing coal-fired electric utility generating units. In 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia struck down the ACE rule but did not reinstate the former CPP regulation. In June 2022, the CPP was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court, which held that Congress did not grant EPA the authority to devise emissions caps based on the generation-shifting approach the EPA took in the CPP. In May 2023, the EPA proposed to vacate the ACE rule and establish control methods to reduce the GHG emissions of power generation sector through control methods that include carbon capture and storage, low-GHG hydrogen co-firing and natural gas co-firing. In April 2024, the EPA published rules to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel-fired power plants (Clean Power Plan 2.0), which faced immediate criticism and challenges. On March 12, 2025, EPA Administrator Zeldin announced the EPA will reconsider the prior Biden Administration’s Clean Power Plan 2.0 regulations, and the EPA published a proposed rule to repeal these regulations on June 17, 2025. The proposal would seek to repeal all GHG emissions standards for the power sector under Section 111 of the CAA.

Further, President Trump and the Republican-majority Congress have exhibited significant support of the oil and natural gas sector and have endorsed policies that would be beneficial for the Company.

The White House has also taken actions targeting emissions of GHGs. In August 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act, which contains tax inducements and other provisions that incentivize investment, development, and deployment of alternative energy sources and technologies, which could increase operating costs within the oil and gas industry and accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels.

Reworded

Efforts have also been made and continue to be made in the international community toward the adoption of international treaties or protocols that would address global climate change issues. In November 2021, the U.S. and other countries entered into the Glasgow Climate Pact, which includes a range of measures designed to address climate change, including but not limited to the phase-out of fossil fuel subsidies, reducing methane emissions 30% by 2030, and cooperating toward the advancement of the development of clean energy.

Many of the regulatory actions taken under the prior Biden Administration related to the environment and oil and gas industry have been or are being revised or reversed by the Trump Administration. For example, in early 2025, President Trump rescinded a number of President Biden’s executive orders on the environment and other matters, including to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris Agreement. The EPA has also delayed the effectiveness of certain methane-related regulations and, in July 2025, proposed to rescind the endangerment finding. If adopted following the extended public comment period, the proposal would result in the repeal of a number of EPA regulations.

Members of the investment community have recently increased their focusfocused on sustainability practices, including practices related to GHGs and climate change, in the oil and natural gas industry. As a result, we and our customers have come under increasing pressure to improve our sustainability and other Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) performance and to increase our public reporting and disclosure on our ESGsustainability practices. Some of our customers have begun to screen their service providers, including us, for compliance with sustainability metrics and we may incur additional costs to comply with ESGsustainability reporting expectations and ESG-linked contracting policies for our customers and suppliers.

Reworded

Additionally, members of the investment community have begun to screen companies such as ours for sustainability performance before investing in our stock. If we are unable to establish adequate sustainability practices, we may lose customers, our stock price may be negatively impacted, our reputation may be negatively affected, and it may be more difficult for us to compete effectively. Our efforts to improve our sustainability practices in response to these pressures may increase our costs, and we may be forced to implement technologies that are not economically viable in order to improve our sustainability performance and to perform services for certain customers. Finally, some scientists have concluded that increasing concentrations of GHGs in the Earth’s atmosphere may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, droughts, and floods and other climatic events. At the same time, our stakeholders hold varied views on these issues, and our sustainability efforts and initiatives may not satisfy all of our stakeholders.

We rely on a large number of agents in non-U.S. countries that have been identified as posing a highheightened risk of corrupt activities and whose local laws and customs differ significantly from those in the U.S. In many countries, particularly in those with developing economies, it is common to engage in business practices that are prohibited by the regulations applicable to us. The FCPA and similar anti-corruption laws in other jurisdictions, including the UK Bribery Act 2010, (“anti-corruption laws”) prohibit corporations and individuals from engaging in certain activities to obtain or retain business or to influence a person working in an official capacity. We may be held responsible for violations by our employees, contractors and agents for violations of anti-corruption laws. We may also be held responsible for violations by an acquired company that occur prior to an acquisition, or subsequent to an acquisition but before we are able to institute our compliance procedures. In addition, our non-U.S. competitors that are not subject to the FCPA or similar anti-corruption laws may be able to secure business or other preferential treatment in such countries by means that such laws prohibit with respect to us. The UK Bribery Act 2010 is broader in scope than the FCPA, applies to public and private sector corruption, and contains no facilitating payments exception. A violation of any of these laws, even if prohibited by our policies, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Actual or alleged violations could damage our reputation, be expensive to defend, impair our ability to do business, and cause us to incur civil and criminal fines, penalties and sanctions.

In the first quarter 2024, following the Variperm Acquisition, we aligned our reportable segments with business activity drivers, our customer base, and the manner in which management reviews and evaluates operating performance. FET now operates in the following two reportable segments: (1) Drilling and Completions and (2) Artificial Lift and Downhole. Refer to Note 1715 Business Segments for the product lines making up each segment.

The table below shows average crude oil and natural gas prices for West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”), Brent, and Henry Hub. Average oil prices declined over the course of the year, with Brent crude averaging approximately $63 per barrel in December after declining throughout the second half of the year. This downward trend was driven by global crude oil supply exceeding demand, a result of both sluggish global economic growth and the accelerated unwinding of OPEC+ production cuts. In contrast, average natural gas prices strengthened during 2025, supported by strong demand, tightening supply and geopolitical uncertainty.

Removed

Our revenues, over the long-term, are highly correlated to the global drilling rig count, which decreased 4.3% in 2024 compared to average global rig count in 2023. The decrease was mainly driven by a decline in U.S. rig count of 12.8%. In the U.S., publicly owned exploration and production companies are expected to continue to exercise disciplined capital spending while privately owned exploration and production companies fluctuate their activity in response to changes in oil and natural gas prices.

The table below shows the average number of active drilling rigs operating by geographic area and drilling for different purposes based on the weekly rig count information published by Baker Hughes Company. Our revenues, over the long-term, are highly correlated to the global drilling rig count, which decreased 6.7% in 2025 compared to average global rig count in 2024. The decrease was mainly driven by lower average oil prices, enhanced drilling efficiencies, and sustained capital discipline among exploration and production companies.

Added

In the third quarter of 2025, Baker Hughes implemented a revised methodology for counting rigs, primarily affecting data pertaining to Saudi Arabia. Consequently, international rig counts reported for the prior period have been adjusted accordingly and may now vary from figures presented in previous disclosures.

Although terms of our contracts may vary considerably, the 6%21% of revenues recognized over time relate to certain contracts in our Subsea andSubsea, Production Equipment and Downhole product lines which are typically based on a fixed amount for the entire contract. Recognition over time for these contracts is supported by our assessment of the products supplied as having no alternative use to us and by clauses in the contracts that provide us with an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. We use the cost-to-cost method to measure progress for these contracts because it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer which occurs as costs are incurred on the contract. The amount of revenue recognized is calculated based on the ratio of costs incurred to date compared to total estimated costs which requires management to calculate reasonably dependable estimates of total contract costs. Whenever revisions of estimated contract costs and contract values indicate that the contract costs will exceed estimated revenues, thus creating a loss, a provision for the total estimated loss is recorded in that period. We recognize revenue and cost of sales each period based upon the advancement of the work-in-progress unless the stage of completion is insufficient to enable a reasonably certain forecast of profit to be established. In such cases, no profit is recognized during the period.

Added

For performance obligations satisfied over time, we measure progress toward completion using either an input method or an output method, depending on which method best depicts the transfer of control of goods or services to the customer. The selection of the method requires judgment and is based on the nature of the goods or services promised and the terms of the contract.

Added

For certain contracts, we use an input method and measure progress using the cost‑to‑cost method because it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer, which occurs as costs are incurred on the contract. The amount of revenue recognized is calculated based on the ratio of costs incurred to date compared to total estimated costs which requires management to calculate reasonably dependable estimates of total contract costs. Whenever revisions of estimated contract costs and contract values indicate that the contract costs will exceed estimated revenues, thus creating a loss, a provision for the total estimated loss is recorded in that period. We recognize revenue and cost of sales each period based upon the advancement of the work-in-progress unless the stage of completion is insufficient to enable a reasonably certain forecast of profit to be established. In such cases, no profit is recognized during the period.

Added

For other contracts, we use an output method to measure progress toward completion where such measures provide a more faithful depiction of performance. Under the output method, revenue is recognized based on direct measurements of value transferred to the customer, such as milestones achieved, units delivered, or other deliverables transferred relative to the remaining goods or services to be provided under the contract.

We review long-lived assets with definite lives for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. In 2024, an impairment loss of $119.1 million was recorded on intangible assets within the Coiled Tubing product line. Refer to Note 76 Goodwill and Intangible Assets for further discussion. In 2025, we recognized $1.2 million and $1.6 million of property and equipment impairment and operating lease right of use assets impairment, respectively, related to the Company’s strategic decision to consolidate facilities and discontinue certain products. Refer to Note 5 Property and Equipment and Note 8 Leases for further discussion. No impairments to property and equipment or operating lease right of use assets were recorded in 2024. No impairments to property and equipment, definite lived intangibles, and operating lease right of use assets were recorded in 2023.

We follow the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of our assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. We recognize deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning and recent operating results. Any changes in our judgment as to the realizability of our deferred tax assets are recorded as an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance in the period the change occurs. For the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, we recognized tax expense for valuation allowances totaling $25.1$4.3 million related to the net increase in our valuation allowance provided against our deferred tax assets to write down our deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions to what is more likely than not realizable. We increased our valuation allowance related to our U.S. deferred tax assets by $29.5$1.5 million along with a $6.9$2.8 million net increase to certain non-U.S. deferred tax assets in the U.K.United Kingdom, Singapore and China. In addition, we released $11.3 million of valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets generated from operations in Germany and Saudi Arabia as the Company determined they were no longer required.Canada.

FET optimizes customer operations by improving safety, increasing efficiency, and reducing environmental impact. Our highly engineered products include capital equipment and consumable products. FET’s customers include oil and natural gas operators, oilfield service companies, pipeline and refinery operators, defense contractors and renewable energy companies. Consumable products are used by our customers in drilling, well construction and completion activities and at processing centers and refineries. Our capital products are directed at drilling rig equipment for constructing new or upgrading existing rigs, subsea construction and development projects, submarine rescue systems and equipment for military use, pressure pumping equipment, the placement of production equipment on new producing wells, downstream capital projects and capital equipment for renewable energy projects. For the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, approximately 75% of our revenue was derived from consumable products and activity-based equipment, while the balance was primarily derived from capital products with a small amount from rental and other services.

We expect that the world’s long-term energy demand will continue to rise for the foreseeable future. Hydrocarbons are expected to play a vital role in meeting the world’s long-term energy needs even as renewable energy sources grow in importance. As such, we are focused on developing products to help oil and natural gas operators lower expenses, increase production, and reduce their emissions while also deploying our technologies in renewable energy applications.

During the second quarter 2026, global oil and natural gas markets continued to be significantly influenced by Middle East geopolitical developments. Military actions involving the U.S., Israel and Iran contributed early in the quarter to substantial uncertainty in global energy markets and raised concerns regarding supply security. Oil and natural gas markets were particularly focused on the disruption of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz following U.S. and Iranian actions to block all maritime traffic. Near the end of the quarter, the U.S. and Iran announced a memorandum of understanding intended to halt hostilities, and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and lift sanctions on certain Iranian crude oil supplies. Subsequent to the quarter end, tensions in the region escalated, contributing to heightened uncertainty regarding the ongoing implementation of the memorandum, regional stability, global energy supply and transportation routes.

Global average active rig counts increased modestly compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 but were lower than the prior‑year period, reflecting continued capital discipline, particularly in North America. U.S. land activity remained relatively stable sequentially, while international activity continued to represent a significant portion of global drilling operations. Offshore rig counts were relatively flat, supported by longer‑cycle international and deepwater projects.

Also during the first quarter, the United States Supreme Court ruled that tariffs instituted under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act by the President of the United States were unconstitutional. Following this result, additional trade remedies under the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 were instituted. U.S. trade policy and global tariff responses have remained volatile and macroeconomic uncertainty across the industry remains.

Despite the elevated energy prices, global average active rig counts decreased compared to the first quarter 2026 and remained below the prior‑year period, reflecting continued capital discipline and expectations for a near term resolution to the Middle East conflicts. Looking forward, while higher commodity prices are expected to continue to fluctuate due to the aforementioned geopolitical developments and evolving trade policies may support incremental activity,developments, we expect customers to maintain their focus on capital discipline, operational efficiency and ainvestment returns-focused approach.returns.
