We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the ChampionX acquisition.

The success of the ChampionX acquisition will depend on, among other things, our ability to combine our business with that of ChampionX in a manner that facilitates growth opportunities and realizes anticipated synergies. If we are not able to successfully achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected.

SLB previously reported its results on the basis of four Divisions: Digital & Integration, Reservoir Performance, Well Construction, and Production Systems. Commencing the third quarter of 2025, SLB's Digital business is reported as a separate Division. Additionally, SLB's Asset Performance Solutions ("APS"), Data Center Solutions, and SLB Capturi businesses are now reported in the All Other category. The acquired ChampionX businesses are predominantly reported in SLB's Production Systems Division, with the exception of its digital business, which is reported in SLB's Digital Division. Prior periods have been recast to conform to the current presentation.

Although 2025 presented a challenging backdrop for the industry—with lower commodity prices, geopolitical uncertainty and an oversupplied oil market—we continued to build resilience across our portfolio by accelerating our strategy. We completed the acquisition of ChampionX during the third quarter in an all-stock transaction valued at $4.9 billion. The combined portfolio, technology capabilities and digital leadership positions SLB to create value for its customers and stakeholders by increasing its exposure to the growing production and recovery market while delivering best-in-class workflow integration across production chemicals and artificial lift. In addition to growing our emphasis on production and recovery, we also increased deployment of AI solutions and the rapid expansion of our Data Center Solutions business.

Amidst lower upstream spending, global revenue of $35.7 billion declined 2% year on year, while we generated $6.5 billion of cash flow from operations and $4.1 billion of free cash flow, enabling us to return $4.0 billion to shareholders.

Excluding the $1.5 billion of revenue from the acquisition of ChampionX, revenue declined 6% year on year as growth in our Digital and Data Center Solutions businesses were more than offset by declines in Saudi Arabia, Mexico and offshore Sub-Saharan Africa.

International revenue declined 5% year on year due to the lower activity in Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Sub-Saharan Africa while North America revenue grew 12% driven by the ChampionX acquisition. Excluding the impact of this transaction, North American revenue declined 2% despite a 5% drop in upstream spending, supported by growth in Data Center Solutions which grew 121% year on year. This business is expanding rapidly as we strengthen strategic partnerships with hyperscalers to leverage our modular data center manufacturing capabilities.

Digital revenue increased 9% on a full-year basis driven by significant uptake in Digital Operations as well as steady growth in Platforms & Applications as customers continued to invest in automated solutions to improve performance and efficiency.

SLB concluded the year with a very strong fourth quarter driven by Production Systems, Digital and Reservoir Performance. Notably, fourth quarter revenue increased sequentially across each of our four geographies for the first time since the second quarter of 2024, reflecting stabilized global upstream activity. We experienced sequential organic revenue growth both in North America and in the international markets, driven by higher offshore activity and strong year-end product and digital sales in Latin America, the Middle East and Asia, across Sub-Saharan Africa and in North America Offshore.

As we move into 2026, we believe the headwinds we experienced in key regions in 2025 are behind us. In particular, we expect rig activity in the Middle East, to increase compared to today’s level, and our footprint in the region puts us in a strong position to benefit from this recovery.

As economics remain challenged, production and recovery activity is becoming a strategic priority for our customers to unlock incremental barrels at the lowest cost. This is translating into higher demand particularly for intervention services, artificial lift, production chemicals and SLB OneSubsea.

We expect that Data Center Solutions will be our fastest growing business for years to come, and Digital will continue to grow at highly accretive margins. Both present differentiated growth opportunities for SLB in 2026 and beyond.

SLB has consistently proven that the unique strengths of our portfolio enable us to create differentiated value and generate significant cash flows in varied market conditions.

As we move through the year, we anticipate that activity will gradually improve in the key markets where we operate, giving us the confidence that we will generate strong cash flows, once again, in 2026.

Aligned with our clear priority to create value for investors, we are committed to returning more than $4 billion to shareholders in 2026 through dividends and share repurchases.

Fourth-quarter revenue of $9.7 billion increased 9% sequentially with international revenue increasing 8% and North America revenue increasing 15%. These results reflect a full quarter of activity from the acquired ChampionX businesses which contributed $879 million of revenue, consisting of $583 million in North America and $266 million in the international markets. Third-quarter 2025 revenue reflected two months of activity from ChampionX, which contributed revenue of $579 million, consisting of $387 million in North America and $171 million in the international markets.

Excluding the impact of the acquisition, international fourth-quarter 2025 revenue increased 7% and North America fourth-quarter 2025 revenue increased 6% sequentially. Fourth quarter revenue increased sequentially across all the four geographic areas for the first time since the second quarter of 2024 as global upstream markets have stabilized. The organic sequential revenue growth both in the international markets and North America was driven by higher offshore activity and strong year-end product and digital sales, most notably in Latin America, the Middle East and Asia, across Sub-Saharan Africa and Gulf of America.

Digital revenue reached $825 million, up 25% sequentially, driven by a $104 million increase in Digital Exploration as a result of year-end sales in the Gulf of America, Brazil and Angola, as well as robust increases in Digital Operations and Platforms & Applications.

Revenue of $445 million increased $48 million sequentially largely due to higher APS revenue in Ecuador as a result of the resumption of production following the pipeline disruption during the third quarter.

Pretax operating income declined $11 million sequentially as improved profitability from the higher revenue in APS in Ecuador was more than offset by a significant loss on one particular project in SLB Capturi.

Full-year 2025 revenue of $35.7 billion decreased 2%, or $580 million year on year. Excluding the $1.5 billion of revenue from the acquired ChampionX businesses, revenue declined 6% year on year as growth in the Digital and Data Center Solutions businesses were more than offset by activity reductions in Saudi Arabia, Mexico and offshore Sub-Saharan Africa.

International revenue declined 5% year on year due to the lower activity in Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Sub-Saharan Africa. North America revenue grew 12% year on year primarily driven by the acquisition of ChampionX. Excluding the impact of this transaction, North America revenue declined 2% despite a 5% drop in upstream spending supported by growth in Data Center Solutions, which grew 121% year on year.

Digital revenue of $2.7 billion grew 9% year on year due to strong growth from both Digital Operations and Platforms & Applications. The acquisition of ChampionX also accounted for $48 million of the increase.

Digital pretax operating margin of 28% expanded 291 bps year on year primarily driven by the higher revenue and efficiency gains.

Reservoir Performance revenue of $6.8 billion decreased 5% year on year primarily due to a slowdown in evaluation and stimulation activity in the international markets.

Reservoir Performance pretax operating margin of 18% contracted 191 bps year on year due to the lower evaluation and stimulation activity.

Well Construction revenue of $11.9 billion decreased 11% year on year driven by a broad reduction in drilling activity both internationally, mainly in Mexico, Saudi Arabia, and offshore Africa, and in North America.

Well Construction pretax operating margin of 19% declined 220 bps year on year driven by the widespread activity reductions.

Production Systems revenue of $13.3 billion increased 12% year on year reflecting five months of activity from the acquired ChampionX production chemicals and artificial lift businesses, which contributed $1.45 billion of revenue. Excluding the impact of this acquisition, Production Systems revenue was essentially flat year on year.

Production Systems pretax operating margin of 16% was essentially flat year on year.

Revenue of $2.0 billion decreased 6% year on year largely due to the absence of approximately $290 million of revenue following the divestiture of SLB’s interest in the Palliser APS project in Canada at the end of the second quarter of 2025 and the loss of approximately $100 million of APS revenue due to production interruption arising from a pipeline disruption in Ecuador during the third quarter of 2025. These decreases were partially offset by a $251 million, or 121%, increase in Data Center Solutions revenue.

Pretax operating income decreased $277 million year on year primarily due to the effects of the divestiture of the Palliser asset, the pipeline disruption in Ecuador and a significant loss on one particular project in SLB Capturi.

Second-quarter 2026 revenue of $9.0 billion increased 3% compared to the first quarter of 2026 as broad-based growth across international markets—led by offshore activity in Latin America, Europe & Africa, and Asia—more than offset the impact of continued disruptions in the Middle East.

Excluding the Middle East, revenue grew sequentially across all Divisions, supported by higher offshore activity, a rebound in U.S. unconventionals, and strong demand for production and recovery solutions.

International revenue increased 3% sequentially despite the severe disruptions in the Middle East. Strong performances in Latin America, Europe & Africa and Asia more than offset the decline in the Middle East where revenue fell 13% sequentially to $1.66 billion.

North America revenue increased 4% sequentially driven by higher sales of production chemicals, artificial lift, and valves in U.S. land, as well as increased revenue from Data Center Solutions.

Digital revenue of $697 million increased 9% sequentially, driven by a 25%, or $25 million, increase in Digital Exploration revenue resulting from higher sales of exploration data licenses and transfer fees. Sequential growth also benefited from $17 million in higher sales in Platforms & Applications.

Reservoir Performance revenue of $1.6 billion decreased 2% sequentially, primarily due to lower evaluation, stimulation, and intervention activity resulting from operational disruptions related to the Middle East conflict. While activity in the Middle East began to recover in certain countries as conditions improved, operations in other markets remained constrained by production shut-ins and ongoing security challenges.

Well Construction revenue of $2.7 billion decreased 2% sequentially, reflecting the impact of disruptions associated with the Middle East conflict. The decline was partially offset by higher offshore drilling activity in Latin America.

Well Construction pretax operating margin of 15% was essentially flat sequentially, as lower profitability in the Middle East was offset by improved profitability in other areas.

Production Systems revenue of $3.8 billion increased 7% sequentially, driven by strong growth in Latin America, Europe & Africa, Asia, and North America, despite a decline in the Middle East due to disruptions associated with the regional conflict. Sequential growth was supported by higher revenue from SLB OneSubsea, along with increased sales of artificial lift, valves, surface production systems, and completions.

Production Systems pretax operating margin was 16%, expanding 138 basis points sequentially, driven by improved profitability in SLB OneSubsea and artificial lift.

All Other revenue of $505 million increased $63 million sequentially primarily due to 33%, or $46 million, higher revenue in Data Center Solutions.

Interest expense excludes amounts that are included in the segments’ income ($- million in 2026; $6 million in 2025).

Six-month 2026 revenue of $17.7 billion increased 4%, or $658 million, year on year. Excluding the impact of the ChampionX acquisition in the third quarter last year, revenue declined year on year by 6%, or $1.05 billion. This decrease was largely attributable to a 12%, or $0.7 billion, decline in revenue in the Middle East due to operational disruptions related to the conflict in the region.

Digital revenue of $1.3 billion increased 14%, or $160 million, year on year, driven by a $120 million increase in Digital Operations and $55 million of higher sales of exploration data licenses and transfer fees.

Production Systems revenue of $7.3 billion increased 26% year on year from the acquired ChampionX production chemicals and artificial lift businesses, which contributed $1.7 billion of revenue and $307 million in pretax operating income during the first six months of 2026.

All Other revenue of $948 million decreased $197 million year on year driven by the absence of $215 million in APS revenue following the divestiture of the Palliser asset in Canada in the second quarter of 2025 coupled with reduced revenue in SLB Capturi.
