Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call presented multiple strong operational and financial highlights — meaningful sequential revenue and margin expansion, robust cash generation, meaningful digital acceleration, material ChampionX production-systems contribution, OneSubsea backlog momentum, and an ambitious data-center growth trajectory. These positives were balanced against discrete near-term headwinds including Q1 seasonality, a carbon-capture goodwill impairment and project loss, pricing pressure in select international markets, and some region-specific weakness (Saudi, Sub-Saharan Africa, Mexico). Management provided constructive 2026 guidance with sustained shareholder returns and a pathway to capture synergies and international recovery, implying confidence in a broader rebound through 2026–2027.
Company Guidance
SLB guided 2026 revenue of $36.9–$37.7 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $8.6–$9.1 billion with margins roughly in line with 2025, reflecting an incremental ~$1.8 billion of ChampionX revenue and roughly half of $400 million in total synergies expected by 2026 (≈75% of synergies to production systems); it expects ~ $2.5 billion of capital investments (CapEx + APS + exploration), an effective tax rate of ~20%, and to return >$4 billion to shareholders (a 3.5% dividend increase and a targeted ~$2.4 billion buyback). Near term, Q1 revenue is expected to decline high single digits sequentially with adjusted EBITDA margin down 150–200 bps versus Q4, followed by a rebound and a higher Q4 2026 exit rate versus Q4 2025. Division outlooks: digital to grow at 2025’s pace (digital full‑year 2025 revenue $2.7B, Q4 digital $825M, digital ARR >$1B and 35% margin), production systems to increase (Q4 production systems $4.1B), reservoir performance flattish, well construction modestly down, and data‑center solutions targeting about a $1 billion run rate by year‑end. Recent Q4 metrics anchoring the outlook included $9.7B revenue (+9% sequential), 23.9% adjusted EBITDA margin (+83 bps sequential), $3.0B operating cash flow, $2.3B free cash flow (FY free cash flow $4.1B), and year‑end net debt of $7.4B.
Sequential Revenue Growth and Margin Expansion (Q4 2025)
Q4 revenue of $9.7B, up $817M or 9% sequentially (ex-ChampionX: +6% sequential). Adjusted EBITDA margin 23.9%, up 83 basis points sequentially, demonstrating margin expansion alongside revenue growth.
Strong Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Improvement
Generated $3.0B cash from operations and $2.3B free cash flow in Q4; full-year free cash flow of $4.1B (third consecutive year ≥ $4B). Net debt reduced by $1.8B in the quarter to $7.4B.
Digital Business Acceleration
Digital revenue $825M in Q4, up 25% sequentially; full-year digital revenue $2.7B (+9% YoY). Digital pretax operating margin expanded 557 bps to 34%. Digital annual recurring revenue (ARR) surpassed $1B (ARR YoY growth 15%) and trailing twelve-month net recurring revenue retention was 103%.
Production Systems Strength and ChampionX Contribution
Production systems revenue $4.1B in Q4, up 17% sequentially (ex-ChampionX: +11%). Company delivered approximately $500M of organic revenue growth in Q4 plus roughly $300M contribution from an extra month of ChampionX consolidation. ChampionX expected to add ~ $1.8B incremental revenue in 2026 (full-year benefit).
Subsea and OneSubsea Momentum
OneSubsea awarded ~ $4B in subsea bookings in 2025 and management sees a path to cumulative bookings exceeding $9B over the next two years. Management expects >500 subsea trees to be awarded across 2026–2027 (~20% higher than 2025 run rate).
Data Center Solutions Rapid Growth
Data center solutions grown from launch under two years; company expects to exit the year at a quarterly revenue run rate equivalent to $1B/year and plans geographic and customer base expansion to scale the business internationally.
2026 Financial Guidance and Shareholder Returns
Full-year 2026 revenue guidance of $36.9B–$37.7B (assumes oil in high $50s–low $60s). Adjusted EBITDA guidance $8.6B–$9.1B with margins in line with 2025. Management expects to return >$4B to shareholders in 2026 (3.5% dividend increase announced and targeted $2.4B buyback, potentially more).
Operational Breadth and Geographic Stabilization
Sequential growth across all geographies for the first time since 2024; international organic revenue increased ~7% sequentially and North America ~6% (ex-ChampionX). Notable rebounds in Middle East (UAE, Kuwait, Iraq growth), Asia, and parts of Latin America.
