Action:Reiterated
Date:05/13/26
SLB’s score is driven primarily by solid underlying financial strength (improved leverage and healthy profitability) and supportive technical trends. The main constraints are a relatively high P/E and near-term uncertainty from Middle East disruption pressuring margins and cash flow, partially offset by strong Digital momentum and continued shareholder-return commitments.
Positive Factors
Improved balance sheet resilience
SLB's meaningful deleveraging and stronger equity base increase financial flexibility over the medium term. A sturdier balance sheet supports sustained capex, strategic M&A integration (ChampionX), and continued buybacks while reducing refinancing risk during cyclical downturns.
Negative Factors
Geopolitical concentration risk
Heavy operational exposure to Middle East activity creates structural revenue and execution risk. Prolonged regional disruptions can suspend contracts, delay projects and constrain supply chains, producing recurring volatility in utilization, revenue realization and margin stability across reporting periods.

Schlumberger Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Apr 24, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Jul 24, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Neutral
The call described a quarter materially impacted by geopolitical disruption that reduced revenue and margins, increased costs, and raised short-term cash and debt pressures. At the same time, management highlighted clear strategic progress—ChampionX accretion, strong Digital ARR growth, rapid data center expansion (including an NVIDIA partnership), OneSubsea backlog growth and continued shareholder returns—positioning the company for recovery and growth into 2027–2028. Near-term performance is constrained by the Middle East situation, but medium- to long-term prospects and strategic initiatives provide offsetting upside.Positive Updates
Company-wide Revenue Growth (Including ChampionX)
First quarter global revenue was $8.7 billion, up 3% year-over-year, driven in part by the ChampionX acquisition.
Negative Updates
Middle East Conflict Disruption
Severe disruption in the Middle East led to operational shutdowns, force majeure in Qatar, suspension of offshore operations in Iraq, export capacity disruptions and production shut-ins that materially impacted Q1 revenue and earnings.

Company Guidance
The company’s forward guidance rested on a scenario where Middle East disruption eases mid-Q2, in which case SLB expects the $0.06–$0.08 incremental Q2 EPS headwind from lost revenue and higher logistics/procurement costs to be fully offset by the rest of international markets (mid‑ to high‑single‑digit revenue growth) with North America roughly flat sequentially; by division, Digital and Production Systems should grow globally while Reservoir Performance and Well Construction decline. Management reaffirmed digital targets (Q1 Digital revenue $640M, ARR $1.02B up 15% YoY) and expects full‑year Digital adjusted EBITDA margin of at least 35%, data centers to exit 2026 at a ~$1.0B run‑rate with acceleration in 2027, and OneSubsea margins to recover through the year as backlog (up ~5% YoY) drives awards; they reiterated 2026 capital investments of ~ $2.5B, minimum share repurchases of $2.4B (part of a >$4B targeted shareholder return), and a cash‑flow profile that is seasonally weighted to the back half after Q1 net debt of $8.2B and negative free cash flow of $23M.Schlumberger Financial Statement Overview
