Reductions in capital spending or reductions in the prices we receive for our products and services provided to our customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Spending by exploration and production companies can also be impacted by conditions in the capital markets, which may be volatile at times. Limitations on the availability of capital or higher costs of capital may cause exploration and production companies to make additional reductions to their capital budgets even if oil and natural gas prices increase from current levels. In addition, the transition of the global energy sector from primarily a fossil fuel-based system to renewable energy sources could affect our customers' levels of expenditures.expenditures on products and services related to fossil fuels. Any such reductions in spending could curtail drilling programs, as well as discretionary spending on well services, which may result in a reduction in the demand for certain of our products and services, the rates we can charge for and the utilization of our assets, any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Sustainability initiatives are a growing global movement. Continuing political and social attention to these issues has resulted in both existing and pending international agreements and national, regional and local legislation, regulatory measures, reporting obligations and policy changes.changes, including to reduce the reliance upon oil and natural gas. Also, there is increasing societal pressure in some of the areas where we operate, to limit greenhouse gas emissions as well as other global initiatives. These agreements and measures, including the Paris Climate Accord, may require, or could result in future legislation, regulatory measures or policy changes that would require, significant equipment modifications, operational changes, taxes, or purchases of emission credits to reduce emission of greenhouse gases from our operations or those of our customers, which may result in substantial capital expenditures and compliance, operating, maintenance and remediation costs. As a result of heightened public awareness and attention to these issues as well as continued political and regulatory initiatives to reduce the reliance upon oil and natural gas,result, demand for hydrocarbons may be reduced, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The imposition and enforcement of stringent greenhouse gas emissions reduction requirements could severely and adversely impact the oil and natural gas industry and therefore significantly reduce the value of our business.

Our long-term success depends on our ability to effectively participate in the energy transition, which will require adapting our technology portfolio to potentially changing market demand for products and services and to support the production of energy from sources other than hydrocarbons (e.g., geothermal, carbon capture, responsible abandonment, wind, solar and hydrogen). If the energy transition landscape changes faster than anticipated or in a manner that we do not anticipate, demand for our products and services could be adversely affected. Furthermore, if we fail or are perceived to not effectively implement an energy transition strategy, or if investors or financial institutions shift funding away from companies focused primarily or solely in fossil fuel-related industries, it could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of reparationsoperations and our access to capital or the market for our securities.

There have been significant business consolidations within the oil and gas industry in recent years. Continuing consolidation within the industry may result in reduced capital spending by some of our customers or the acquisition of one or more of our primary customers, which may lead to decreased demand for our products and services.

Changes in trade policy and uncertainties related to tariffs could adversely affect our business.
Tariffs imposed by the United States and retaliatory measures from other countries have and may continue to lead to higher prices for, or reduced availability of, raw materials and finished goods, making products less attractive to customers and potentially reducing demand. Further, these actions have and may continue to create uncertainty in financial markets, impact capital spending, and result in operational disruptions, inflation, and diminished profitability. The unpredictable nature of tariff changes and trade restrictions makes it difficult to anticipate and mitigate risks, which could materially affect our business operations, financial condition, and results of operations. While they created some degree of margin dilution, tariffs did not have a material impact on the Company during the year ended December 31, 2025.

Our largest customer in Mexico has a history of making late payments and, in more recent periods, has utilized third-party financial institutions to pay certain of our receivables. The balances due are not in dispute, however, additional or continued delays in customer payments in the future could differ from historical practice and management’s current expectations; and delays or failures to pay or defaults, if any, could negatively impact the future results of the Company. Additionally, business slowdowns or other items impacting the financial health of the customer could potentially have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
The occurrence of a cybersecurity incident can go unnoticed for a period of time despite efforts to detect and respond in a timely manner. Any investigation of a cybersecurity incident is inherently unpredictable, and it takes time before the completion of any investigation and before there is availability of full and reliable information. Even when an attack has been detected, it is not always immediately apparent what the full nature and scope of any potential harm may be, or how best to remediate it, and certain errors or actions could be repeated or compounded before they are discovered and remediated, all or any of which further Weatherford International plc – 2024 Form 10-K | 12 increase the risks, costs and consequences of a cybersecurity event or other technology disruption. As cybersecurity incidents and attacks continue to evolve, we may be required to expend significant additional resources and incur significant expenses to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate, respond to or remediate any information security vulnerabilities.

Our business is dependent upon our ability to efficiently and effectively performdeliver and provide products and services tofor our customers. As such, we are subject to risks associated with cost over-runs, operating cost inflation, global supply chain disruptions, inventory management, labor availability, supplier and contractor pricing and performance, and our need to continually improve and invest in our people, processes and systems. Our inability to efficiently and effectively mitigate these risks, or our inability to make timely investments could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our operational and financial growth, in part, is dependent upon our ability to meet our liquidity requirements and the adequacy of our capital resources.
Our indemnification arrangements may not protect us in every case. For example, our indemnity arrangements may be held to be overly broad in some courts and/or contrary to public policy in some jurisdictions, and to that extent may be unenforceable. Additionally, some jurisdictions which permit indemnification nonetheless limit its scope by applicable law, rule, order or statute. We may be subject to claims brought by third parties or government agencies with respect to which we are not indemnified. Furthermore, the parties from which we seek indemnity may not be solvent, may become bankrupt, may lack resources or insurance to honor their indemnities or may not otherwise be able to satisfy their indemnity obligations to us. The lack of enforceable indemnification could expose us to significant potential losses.

Our future success depends on our ability to attract, retain and develop qualified personnel to operate and to provide services and support for our business. In addition, we operate in jurisdictions with localization requirements where we rely on the local availability of skilled workers. We may experience employee turnover or labor shortages if our business requirements and/or expectations are inconsistent with the expectations of our employees or if our employees or potential employees decide to pursue employment in fields with less volatility than in the energy industry. Additionally, during periods of increased demand for products and services in our industry, competition for qualified personnel may increase and the availability of qualified personnel may be further constrained. Failure to attract, retain and develop qualified personnel could have an adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Failure to make timely investments in technology and to utilize artificial intelligence appropriately and safely could adversely affect our ability to successfully compete with other companies in our industry.industry, and challenges with properly managing such technologies could result in reputational harm and legal liability that could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We are integrating AI tools into our systems and certain products, and many of our third-party service providers, as well as our competitors, are also developing and using such tools. AI may become increasingly important to our operations or to our future growth over time. There can be no assurance that we will realize the desired or anticipated benefits, or any benefits, and we may fail to properly implement such technology.
In addition, our, and our third-party service providers’, AI tools may not meet existing or rapidly evolving regulatory or industry standards with respect to privacy and data protection, compliance, and transparency, among others, which could inhibit our or our service providers’ ability to maintain an adequate level of functionality or service. AI tools used by us or by our service providers could produce inaccurate or unexpected results or behaviors that could harm our business, customers, or reputation. Furthermore, the deployment of AI systems could expose us to increased cybersecurity threats, such as data breaches and unauthorized access leading to financial losses, legal liabilities, and reputational damage.

We may not realize anticipated operating advantages and cost savings. Future acquisitions may require us to structure new financing arrangements, assume additional liabilities and expenses, as well as incur subsequent write-downs of acquired assets. In addition, the integration of acquired businesses or assets involves a number of risks, including (i) the loss of key customers of the acquired business; (ii) demands on management related to the increase in our size; (iii) the diversion of management’s attention from the management of daily operations; (iv) difficulties in implementing or unanticipated costs of accounting, budgeting, reporting, internal controlscontrols, cybersecurity and other information technology systems; and (v) difficulties in the retention and assimilation of necessary employees. Difficulties in integration may be magnified if we make multiple acquisitions over a relatively short period of time.

There have been significant business consolidations within the oil and gas industry in recent years. These and any future consolidations may result in our reduced market share and reduced capital spending by our customers which may lead to a lower demand for our products and services.
We are subject to various laws and regulations applicable to the energy industry related to pollution, protection of the environment and natural resources, public and worker health and safety, and treaties and international agreements related to climate change and the regulation of greenhouse gasses. These laws and regulations sometimes provide for strict liability for remediation costs, damages to natural resources, or threats to public health and safety. Strict liability can render us liable for damages without regard to our degree of care or fault. Some environmental laws also provide for joint and several strict liability for remediation of spills and releases of hazardous substances, and, as a result, we could be liable for the actions of others. Thus, an environmental claim could arise with respect to one or more of our current or former businesses, operations, products or services, or a business or property that one of our predecessors owned or used, and such claims could involve material expenditures. Generally, environmental laws have in recent years become more stringent and have sought to impose greater liability on a larger number of potentially responsible parties and have required increased costs to comply with their requirements. The scope of regulation of our industry and our products and services may increase further, including possible increases in liabilities, financial assurance, or funding requirements imposed by governmental agencies. Additional regulations on deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and elsewhere in the world could be imposed, and those regulations could limit our business where they are imposed.
In addition, members of the U.S. Congress, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and various agencies of several states within the U.S. frequently review, consider and propose more stringent regulation of hydraulic fracturing, a stimulation treatment routinely performed on oil and natural gas wells in low-permeability reservoirs. We previously provided (and may, in the future, resume providing) fracturing services to customers. Regulators periodically investigate whether any chemicals used in the hydraulic fracturing process might adversely affect groundwater or whether the fracturing processes could lead to other unintended effects or damages. In recent years, local and national governments (including several cities and states within the U.S.) passed new laws and regulations restricting or banning hydraulic fracturing. A significant portion of North American service activity today is directed at prospects that require hydraulic fracturing in order to produce hydrocarbons. Therefore, additional Weatherford International plc – 2024 Form 10-K | 17 regulation could increase the costs of conducting our business by subjecting fracturing to more stringent regulation. Regulation of hydraulic fracturing could increase our cost of providing services or materially reduce our business opportunities and revenues if customers decrease their levels of activity or we cannot pass along cost to customers. We are unable to predict whether changes in laws or regulations or any other governmental proposals or responses will ultimately occur, and accordingly, we are unable to assess the potential financial or operational impact they may have on our business.
In addition, standards for tracking and reporting on ESG matters, including climate change and human rights related matters, have not been harmonized and continue to evolve. Methodologies for reporting ESG data may be updated requiring that previously reported ESG data be adjusted to reflect improvement in availability and quality of third-party data, changing assumptions, changes in the nature and scope of our operations and other changes in circumstances. Our processes and controls for reporting ESG matters across our operations and supply chain are evolving to address obtaining information that resides in multiple internal systems and responding to multiple disparate standards for identifying, measuring, and reporting ESG metrics, including ESG-related disclosures that may be required by the SEC, European and other regulators. Such standards are currently Weatherford International plc – 2025 Form 10-K | 17 not consistent and may change over time, which could result in significant revisions to our current goals, reported progress in achieving such goals, or ability to achieve such goals in the future.

TheIn October 2021, the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”), which represents a coalition of member countries, issued various white papers addressing Tax Base Erosion and Jurisdictional Profit Shifting. The recommendations in these white papers are generally aimed at combating what they believe is tax avoidance. Numerous jurisdictions in which we operate have been influenced by these white papers as well as other factors and are increasingly active in evaluating changes to their tax laws. In addition, the OECD has advanced reforms focused on global profit allocation and implementing a global minimum tax rate of at least 15% for large multinational corporations on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, known as “Pillar Two.” OnThe Octoberreform 8,has 2021, the OECD announced an accord endorsing and providing an implementation plan for Pillar Twobeen agreed upon by 136the nations.majority Onof OECD members.

We are organized under the laws of Ireland, and a significant portion of our assets are located outside the United States. The United States currently does not have a treaty with Ireland providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters. As such, a shareholder who obtains a court judgment based on the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal or state securities laws may be unable to enforce the judgment against us in Ireland. In addition, there is some doubt as to whether the courts of Ireland and other countries would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors or officers based on the civil liabilities provisions of the federal or state securities laws of the United States or would hear actions against us or those persons based on those laws. The laws of Ireland do, however, as a general rule, provide that the judgments of the courts of the United States have the same validity in Ireland as if rendered by Irish Courts. Certain important requirements must be satisfied before the Irish Courts will recognize the U.S. judgment. The originating court must have been a court of competent jurisdiction, the judgment must be final and conclusive, and the judgment may not be recognized if it was obtained by fraud, or its recognition would be contrary to Irish public policy. Any judgment obtained in contravention of the rules Weatherford International plc – 2024 Form 10-K | 19 of natural justice or that is irreconcilable with an earlier foreign judgment would not be enforced in Ireland.
A failure of our information systems, including the implementation of our new enterprise resource planning system, or other issues with our systems could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and could adversely impact the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
Interruptions in the proper functioning of our information systems or other issues with our enterprise resource systems could cause disruption to our operations.
We rely extensively on our information systems to manage our business, data, communications, supply chain, ordering, pricing, billing, inventory replenishment, accounting functions, and other processes. Our enterprise resourceinformation systems are subject to damage or interruption from various sources, including obsolescence, power outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, cyber security breaches, vandalism, severe weather conditions, catastrophic events, terrorism, and human error, and our disaster recovery planning cannot account for all eventualities. Our disaster recovery measures may or may not address all potential contingencies. If our infrastructure becomes damaged, failfails to function properly, or otherwise becomes compromised or unavailable, we may incur substantial costs to repair or replace them, and we may experience loss of critical data or interruptions or delays in our ability to perform critical functions, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, or financial condition.

Lower oil and natural gas prices and lower rig count generally correlate to lower exploration and production spending, and higher oil and natural gas prices and higher rig count generally correlate to higher exploration and production spending. Therefore, our financial results are significantly affected by oil and natural gas prices as well as rig counts. As shown in the following tables, as of December 31, 2025 oil prices and rig counts were notably lower than at December 31, 2024. The drop in oil prices and rig counts since December 31, 2024 has coincided with reduced activity levels across our industry. Henry Hub natural gas prices increased as of December 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, driven by both U.S. domestic gas demand and investment decisions on adding new export liquified natural gas capacity. Gas production additions, largely driven by positive liquified natural gas sentiment ahead of actual capacity additions, were sourced from a backlog of drilled but uncompleted wells and deferred start-ups.

Our income tax provisions in 2024 and 2023 are primarily driven by income in certain jurisdictions, deemed profit countries and withholding taxes on intercompany and third-party transactions that do not directly correlate to ordinary income or loss. Impairments and other charges recognized do not result in significant tax benefit as a result of being attributed to a non-income tax jurisdiction or our inability to forecast realization of the tax benefit of such losses.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, income tax expense was higher than 2023, primarily driven by increased activity and operating profits, profit mix in various jurisdictions that we operate, and lower valuation allowance releases. During the year ended December 31, 2023, income tax expense was lower by $115 million, due to the release of valuation allowances and the recognition of benefits from previously uncertain tax positions. Those benefits were offset by the establishment of valuation allowance of approximately $50 million against the sale of Blue Chip Swap securities and currency devaluation in Argentina (see Note 17 – Blue Chip Swap Securities - Argentina).
We are continuously under tax examination in various jurisdictions. We cannot predict the timing or outcome regarding resolution of these tax examinations or if they will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2024, we anticipate that it is reasonably possible that the amount of our uncertain tax positions of $201 million may decrease by up to $31 million in the next twelve months due to expiration of statutes of limitations, settlements and/or conclusions of tax examinations.

Growth and spending in the energy services industry is highly dependent on many external factors. These include but are not limited to; the impact from geopolitical conflicts; our customers’ capital expenditures; environmental, social and governance and other sustainability policies and initiatives; world economic, political, trade, and weather conditions; the price of oil, natural gas, and alternatives; and, member-country quota compliance within the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and the expanded alliance (OPEC+); non-OPEC+ investments and project timing. Imbalance across geographies driven by geopolitical conflicts, investment variances and demand growth alignment with supply disruptionsstability are driving a greater focus on energy securitymarkets and resiliency, which in turn is creating a shift towards national oil companies and diversification across multiple energy sources (oil, gas, coal, renewables, etc.) to meet domestic and global demand.balance.

Unpredictable developments—such as the potential opening of Venezuela to foreign oil companies—may increase activity levels in the mid to long term.
Our customers continue to face challenges in balancing the cost of extraction activities with securing desired rates of production while achieving acceptable rates of return on investment. These challenges increase our customers’ requirements for technologies that improve productivity and efficiency and pressure us to deliver our products and services at competitive rates. Over the long-term, we expect demand for oil and natural gas exploration and production industry as well as new energy platforms to continue to require more advanced technology from the energy service industry. Weatherford delivers innovative energy services that integrate proven technologies with advanced digitization to create sustainable offerings for maximized value and return on investment. We continue to expand our product and services offerings across the well cycle, including well construction and completions remote monitoring, and predictive analytics. Our resiliency continued to show in our performance through 2024, allowing us to also make improvements on our capital structure through debt reduction. We believe we are well positioned to satisfy our customers’ needs, but the level of improvement in our businesses in the future will continue to depend heavily on pricing, volume of work, our ability to offer cost efficient, innovative and effective technology solutions, and our success in gaining market share in new and existing markets.

Lower oil and natural gas prices and lower rig count generally correlate to lower exploration and production spending, and higher oil and natural gas prices and higher rig count generally correlate to higher exploration and production spending. Therefore, our financial results can be significantly affected by oil and natural gas prices as well as rig counts. As shown in the following tables, as of three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the average WTI oil price was flat compared to three months ended March 31, 2025 while theand average Brent crude oil price were higher compared to three and six months ended June 30, 2025 while the average Henry Hub natural gas prices were higherlower than during the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025 and higher than during the six months ended June 30, 2025. Average rig counts decreased during the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. Oil and natural gas prices have experienced increased volatility and upward pressure in response to escalatingthe ongoing geopolitical conflict involving Iran, the U.S. and Israel (“Iran Conflict”). TheDespite higher oil prices driven by the Iran Conflict, which began on February 28, 2026,it has causedadversely the WTI oil price to increase from $66.96 per barrel on February 27, 2026 to $102.86 per barrel on March 31, 2026 averaging $90.84 per barrel for the month of March and Brent crude oil price to increase from $71.32 per barrel on February 27, 2026 to $126.69 per barrel on March 31, 2026 averaging $102.01 per barrel for the month of March. Despite the higher oil prices, the Iran Conflict may have an adverse impact onimpacted exploration and production spending in the Middle East duringresulting the period of the conflict and could lead to significantin disruption of global energy supplies,supplies and adversely affectaffecting global supply chains, energy markets and overall macroeconomic conditions.
Developments in global trade policy, tariffs, geopolitical conflicts, sanctions, and regulation have affected and may continue to affect our industry. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain tariffs were unlawful and affirmed that jurisdiction for tariff-related matters resided with the Court of International Trade; however, uncertainty persists as new tariffs have been introduced under alternative authorities. We have filed claims for refunds of certain tariffs and have begun receiving approvals and cash receipts, while continuing to prepare and submit additional claims as further guidance becomes available. Separately, certain tariffs implemented in 2026 have been challenged or modified, and we continue to monitor these developments, which are not currently expected to have a material impact on our results.
Developments in global trade policy, tariffs, geopolitical conflicts, sanctions, and regulation have affected and may continue to affect our industry. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain tariffs were unlawful, invalidating the statutory basis for certain incremental tariffs enacted since February 2025, and remanded related matters to the Court of International Trade. Following this ruling, the U.S. presidential administration announced new tariffs under alternative authorities, furthering uncertainty regarding the scope, duration, and potential modification or suspension of existing and future tariffs, as well as possible retaliatory actions. We have filed a claim for a refund of certain tariffs with the Court of International Trade and are monitoring the situation closely for further information about how the U.S. government intends to proceed. Our first quarter 2026 financial results do not include potential benefits of a refund being received related to the forementioned tariffs.
The Iran Conflict, which began in February 2026, has and could continue to significantly disrupt the global oil and gas supply-demand balance, increase commodity price volatility and heighten uncertainty in regional operating conditions. We continue to evaluate our operations and business exposure, with a priority on the safety and well‑being of our employees, operating in compliance with applicable laws and sanctions, and performing under existing contracts with customers in the region. Disruptions to transportation routes, higher logistics and insurance costs, and changes in customer activity levels or project timing could continue to affect our operating results, liquidity, and cash flows, particularly if conditions persist or escalate. While the situation remains fluid, adverse impacts can continue in future periods. We will continue to monitor developments andand, assessto the extent possible, mitigate potential impacts on our business and financial position.
Revenues in Russia were approximatelyjust 7%under 10% and 9% of our total revenues for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, respectively, compared to 6%7% of our total revenue for both the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. The increase in Russia revenues as a percentage of consolidated results year over year was driven by revenue decreases in the Middle East/North Africa/Asia region as a result of the Iran Conflict and the strengthening of the Ruble against the U.S. dollar. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, our Russia operations included $106$118 million in cash, $149$178 million in other current assets, $100$105 million in property, plant and equipment, net and other non-current assets, and $82$90 million in liabilities.

The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to a decline in product sales and a reduction in headcount leading to lower personnel costs. The decrease was partly offset by an increase in depreciation expenses. Our cost of products and services as a percentage of revenues was 71%70% in both the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, respectively, compared to 69% in both the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025.2025, respectively. The higher cost ratio was primarily due to fixed costs decreasing at a slower rate than revenues.
Selling, general and administrative costs of $172 million and $340 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, increased 5% compared to $164 million and $325 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to an increase in employee incentive programs and share-based compensation. Selling, general and administrative costs as a percentage of revenues were 16% and 15% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and 14% in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

The year-over-year decrease was due to lower costs for research and development projects. Research and development costs as a percentage of revenues was 2% in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 3% in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
Selling, general, administrative and research and development costs of $189 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, decreased 1% compared to $190 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Interest expense was $27 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $37$54 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025.2026, respectively, and $35 million and $72 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a lower interest rate following the refinancing of long-term debt in the fourth quarter of 2025 and the reduction in our outstanding long-term debt. Interest income was $10$11 million and $21 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, respectively, and $11$14 million and $25 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025.2025, respectively.

All Other revenues were $92$65 million and $157 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, compared to $68$86 million and $154 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. TheIn the second quarter, the year-over-year decrease was due to lower activity in the Middle East/North Africa/Asia region following the completion of certain integrated services and projects that were not renewed. Year-to-date, the year-over-year increase was due to higher international activity for integrated services and projects.
Corporate Costs
Corporate incurred net expense was $16$18 million and $34 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $15 million and $30 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to an increase in employee incentive programs.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $70$71 million and $141 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $62$64 million and $126 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to a larger asset base.
We recognized $12$11 million and $23 million of share-based compensation in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $7$9 million and $16 million in the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the timing of equity grants and increased expense related to performance-based awards.
As we look forward to the third quarter, the pace of recovery in the Middle East remains the primary factor influencing our near-term outlook. Ongoing geopolitical tensions and operational disruptions continue to create uncertainty around the timing of a full return to normalized conditions. For the remainder of 2026, we expect activity levels to gradually recover while recognizing the potential for continued volatility. We continue to closely monitor geopolitical developments, customer spending patterns, supply chain conditions, trade policies, inflationary pressures, and labor and logistical constraints that could impact our operations and financial results.
Over the mid to long-term, we continue to believe the industry is supported by structural demand drivers rooted in energy security, infrastructure development, and the need for reliable and diversified energy supply. While near-term activity levels may remain uneven across certain markets, we believe our differentiated technologies, growing offshore and deepwater opportunities, operational execution, and disciplined capital allocation position us well to capitalize on long-cycle growth opportunities.
As we look forward to the second quarter, market conditions remain uncertain due to evolving trade and tariff policies, geopolitical instability and changes in global supply. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the conflict in Iran contributed to disruption in the Middle East, including activity delays and higher logistics and transportation costs, and higher commodity prices. We expect the conflict to negatively impact operating income results in the first half of 2026. However, in the event the Iran Conflict is completed by the end of the second quarter, we expect activity to improve in the second half of 2026. As the market works through supply chain constraints, lead times and logistical bottlenecks associated with the conflict, we expect the resulting impacts to become more apparent over the near term, with activity improving as conditions normalize.
Over the mid to long-term, we believe the industry is entering a period of tighter physical oil and gas markets, and we are well positioned to benefit as customers prioritize energy security, capacity additions, redundancy and infrastructure hardening, and as service intensity supports a tightening services environment. While we remain cautious on our activity profile as we calibrate macroeconomic conditions with customer demand, we are confident that our differentiated technologies and market penetration will provide a pathway to long-cycle growth. We continue to closely monitor and adapt to macroeconomic and trade conditions, potential supply chain disruptions, inflationary factors, and other labor and logistical constraints that could impact our operations and results.
