Current report

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.

Segment operating income and segment operating margin percentage

Current report

Drilling and Completions segment— Segment operating income was $13.7 million, or 9.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to income of $7.3 million, or 6.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The $6.4 million increase in segment operating results was driven by revenue growth across all product lines, as well as benefits from cost savings initiatives including the Company’s strategic decision to consolidate facilities in the second half of the prior year.

Current report

Artificial Lift and Downhole segment— Segment operating income was $16.4 million, or 18.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $10.4 million, or 12.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The $6.0 million increase was primarily driven by increased sales volume, favorable product mix, operating leverage and benefits from cost savings initiatives.

Previous report

During the first quarter 2026, global oil and natural gas markets were heavily impacted by geopolitical developments and evolving supply dynamics, particularly in the Middle East. In March 2026, military actions involving the U.S., Israel and Iran introduced significant uncertainty into global energy markets. These developments caused concerns regarding the security of supply and became more elevated with military actions taken by Iran against the other Gulf states and efforts to control the Strait of Hormuz, a critical transit route for global crude and liquefied natural gas.

Previous report

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.

Previous report

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.

Previous report

Segment operating income (loss) and segment operating margin percentage

Previous report

Drilling and Completions segment— Segment operating income was $8.9 million, or 7.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to income of $9.4 million, or 8.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The $0.5 million decrease in segment operating results was primarily due to costs related to the Company’s strategic decision to consolidate facilities and discontinue certain products, higher than anticipated costs on a small number of projects accounted for over time and bad debt expense totaling approximately $3.0 million. Excluding these items, the segment operating income benefited from lower operating costs resulting from the Company's cost savings initiatives, which offset unfavorable product mix.

Previous report

Artificial Lift and Downhole segment— Segment operating income was $11.6 million, or 14.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $7.3 million, or 9.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The $4.3 million increase was primarily driven by favorable product mix and increased operating leverage on higher revenue.

Previous wording

As a result, energy markets experienced tightening supply conditions and increased volatility, driven by a combination of reduced export capacity, constrained shipping activity in the region and the incorporation of a risk premium into commodity pricing. These factors contributed to higher crude oil and natural gas prices during the quarter, as market participants reacted to both actual and potential disruptions in global supply.

Current wording

Over the course of the quarter, energy markets experienced heightened volatility, driven by reduced export capacity, constrained shipping activity in the region and the incorporation of a risk premium into commodity prices. Crude oil prices increased during portions of the quarter, as market participants reacted to both actual and potential disruptions in global supply. While oil prices stabilized near the end of the quarter as market confidence improved regarding diplomatic negotiations and global crude oil supply, prices remained sensitive to geopolitical developments. Natural gas prices decreased in the quarter due to strong supply growth and seasonality.

Previous wording

Looking forward, while higher commodity prices due to the aforementioned geopolitical developments and evolving trade policies may support incremental activity, we expect customers to maintain capital discipline, operational efficiency and a returns-focused approach. However, we believe that long‑term global energy demand, ongoing production declines in mature fields, and customer focus on efficiency, safety, and emissions reduction will continue to support demand for our products and technologies over the long term.

Current wording

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 commodity prices are expected to continue to fluctuate due to geopolitical developments, we expect customers to maintain their focus on capital discipline, operational efficiency and investment returns. However, we continue to believe that long‑term global energy demand, ongoing production declines in mature fields, and customer focus on efficiency, safety, and emissions reduction will continue to support demand for our products and technologies over the long term.

Previous wording
