Current report

In connection with the preparation of our third quarter financial statements, we recorded non-cash impairment charges of $74.5 million related to Pintail, reflecting the excess of the carrying amount of Pintail’s asset group over its estimated fair value. Pintail’s persistent pricing weakness, lower activity and cost pressure led management to conclude that the carrying amount of the Pintail asset group was not fully recoverable. Of the total impairment charges, $58.3 million related to Pintail’s Other intangible assets, net with the remaining $16.2 million related to Property, plant and equipment.

Income tax (benefit) provision. Income tax benefit was $2.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $21.3 million tax provision for the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rate reflects a benefit of 6.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to a provision of 37.7% for the same period in the prior year. The change in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of unfavorable permanent differences in relation to a pretax loss in 2026, compared to pretax income in 2025. In addition, the effective rate includes the impact of impairment charges recorded in the third quarter.

Net (loss) income and (loss) per share, diluted earnings per share. Net loss was $29.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, or $0.14 loss per share, compared to net income of $35.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, or $0.16 diluted earnings per share.

Cash provided by operating activities was $115.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $139.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities is due primarily to unfavorable changes in working capital. Working capital was a use of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, primarily due to higher accounts receivable resulting from increased customer activity and timing of collections, and strategic inventory purchases including key components in short supply. Free cash flow was $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $21.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Previous wording

These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance or liquidity measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that presenting these non-GAAP measures, other than free cash flow, enables investors to compare the operating performance of our core business consistently over various time periods, without regard to acquisition related employment costs and changes in our accounting for purchases of wireline cables, and without regard to changes in our capital structure. Management believes that free cash flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating RPC's liquidity. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, RPC’s definition of free cash flow is limited, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, management believes it is important to view free cash flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

*Revenues.*Revenues of $460.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased 9.5% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in revenues was primarily due to increased activities in pressure pumping, downhole tools and coiled tubing, partially offset by a decrease in wireline activity. Management believes the oilfield services completion market continues to be over-supplied and efficiency gains are contributing to excess capacity in the industry. These challenges, although slight improvements were realized during the quarter, have impacted activity levels, asset utilization, and pricing. International revenues represented 2.0% of total revenues in the second quarter of 2026 unchanged compared to 2.0% in the same period of the prior year. We believe that international revenues will continue to be less than 10% of RPC’s consolidated revenues in the foreseeable future.

*Revenues.*Revenues of $915.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, increased 21.5% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a full six months of revenues from Pintail, which was acquired on April 1, 2025, coupled with revenue increases due to increased activity in pressure pumping, downhole tools and coiled tubing.

The Company purchases its equipment and materials from suppliers who provide competitive prices and employ skilled workers from competitive labor markets. If inflation in the general economy increases, the Company’s costs for equipment, materials and labor could increase as well. In addition, increases in activity in the domestic oilfield can cause upward wage pressures in the labor markets from which it hires employees, especially if employment in the general economy increases. Also, activity increases can cause supply disruptions and higher costs of certain materials and key equipment components used to provide services to the Company’s customers. In recent years, the price of labor and raw materials has increased. The cost increases have moderated but remain high by historical standards. Additionally, tariffs can impact the absolute cost of materials, equipment and components, as well as contribute to supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures on domestic suppliers. While the Company has not experienced a material impact from tariffs to date, the future effect of tariffs and other trade-related measures remains uncertain and could result in higher costs, reduced availability of certain materials and equipment, or other operational challenges.
