Broad Growth Driven by Middle East Recovery, North America and Deep Water

“SLB delivered solid third-quarter results with all regions growing sequentially — led by a gradual recovery in the Middle East, growth in North America land and broadening international activity in deepwater offshore basins,” said SLB Chief Executive Officer Olivier Le Peuch.

“In the Middle East, our business grew 13% sequentially despite late-quarter disruptions. Outside the region, growth was supported by higher activity in U.S. land, highlighted by ChampionX achieving its highest quarterly revenue since the acquisition. Strong SLB OneSubsea™ activity further supported growth with a steady flow of new contract awards in the international markets which increased backlog and enhanced revenue visibility into 2027,” Le Peuch said.

Production Systems, Well Construction and Reservoir Performance Revenue Grew Sequentially

“Production Systems, Well Construction and Reservoir Performance revenue grew sequentially, reflecting increased activity across the exploration-to-production life cycle.

“Production Systems was supported by higher SLB OneSubsea activity and increased sales of production chemicals and artificial lift. This demonstrates the value of our production offering as customers increasingly prioritize production optimization, improved recovery and extended asset life.

“Well Construction and Reservoir Performance benefited from the rebound in the Middle East and increased international offshore activity, mainly in Europe & Africa, Latin America and Asia. Growth was driven by increased drilling fluids sales, higher drilling measurements revenue, and heightened evaluation and intervention activity as operators ramp up development efforts to restore production and bring new capacity online.”

“These results reflect broad-based sequential revenue growth across each of our geographical areas and Core divisions as the upcycle gains momentum,” Le Peuch said.

Data Center Solutions Accelerates as an Independent Growth Driver

“Our Data Center Solutions business continued to accelerate, with revenue increasing 23% sequentially, driven by growing demand, a broadening scope of services and geographic expansion into Asia.

“AI is driving unprecedented investment in data center infrastructure, and customers are looking for partners who can deploy quickly, reliably and at scale. Our modular approach is meeting this need today, and the previously announced acquisition of Kelvion will further strengthen our technology portfolio and advance our ability to deliver more integrated solutions for customers.

“Overall, we continue to strengthen our position as an industrial technology partner to the data center industry and to expand our participation in this rapidly growing market,” Le Peuch said.

Broad International Expansion Strengthens the 2027 Growth Outlook

“Our view of supportive market fundamentals remains firmly intact. Energy security and supply shocks continue to drive a quest for international supply diversification, reserve replacement and sustained production — driving a distinct upcycle, despite near-term uncertainty in the Middle East.

“Our international outlook continues to strengthen, driven by deepwater momentum across Latin America, Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia, underscored by recent SLB OneSubsea contract awards. Furthermore, international diversification is accelerating as major U.S. shale operators expand abroad and partner with national oil companies across global basins.

“Combined with significant activity increases in Venezuela and expanding momentum across our Core, Digital and Data Center Solutions businesses, we see a very compelling outlook for 2027, with further upside as Middle East activity recovers,” Le Peuch concluded.

Other Events

During the quarter, SLB repurchased 12.9 million shares of its common stock for a total purchase price of $656 million. During the first nine months of 2026, SLB repurchased a total of 34.0 million shares of its common stock for a total purchase price of $1.76 billion.

On August 31, 2026, SLB signed an agreement to acquire Kelvion, a global provider of thermal management and heat exchange technologies. The acquisition strengthens SLB’s Data Center Solutions business with critical thermal management technologies and expands the company’s role in data center infrastructure, which is one of the world’s fastest-growing industrial and technology markets. Under the terms of the agreement, SLB will acquire Kelvion from Apollo-managed funds — the majority owner — and funds advised by Triton, which holds a minority interest, for approximately $3.4 billion in cash and will assume approximately $0.7 billion of debt. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the first half of 2027.

On September 1, 2026, SLB completed its acquisition of S&P Global Energy’s geoscience and petroleum engineering software business portfolio. The acquisition enhances SLB’s digital subsurface and planning portfolio, adding workflow-centric applications widely used by North American onshore and unconventional operators, and strengthening its ability to help customers improve efficiency, accelerate decision making and unlock greater value from subsurface data.

On October 22, 2026, SLB’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.295 per share of outstanding common stock, payable on January 7, 2027, to stockholders of record on December 2, 2026.

International

Latin America

Revenue in Latin America of $1.75 billion increased 2% sequentially, primarily driven by higher SLB OneSubsea sales and increased drilling activity in Guyana and Brazil. Growth was further supported by higher revenue from Asset Performance Solutions (APS) projects in Ecuador and stronger drilling activity in Argentina.

Year on year, revenue increased 16%, driven primarily by stronger offshore activity in Brazil, Guyana and Mexico. Higher revenue from APS projects in Ecuador also contributed to the increase, as the prior-year quarter was affected by pipeline-related disruptions.

Europe & Africa

Revenue in Europe & Africa of $2.44 billion increased 2% sequentially, driven by higher SLB OneSubsea revenue in Scandinavia and Angola and production and recovery activity in Nigeria. These increases were partially offset by lower revenue in Libya and reduced SLB Capturi™ revenue as project milestones were completed.

Year on year, revenue decreased 1%, primarily reflecting lower activity across North Africa. This decline was partially offset by strong growth in Nigeria from higher production systems sales and increased evaluation, intervention and stimulation activity as well as higher revenue in Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan.

Middle East & Asia

Revenue in the Middle East & Asia of $2.81 billion increased 9% sequentially, driven by 13% growth in the Middle East and a 2% increase in Asia. The Middle East accounted for 67% of the area's revenue in the third quarter of 2026.

Growth in the Middle East reflected the rebound in activity following operational disruptions related to the regional conflict in the prior quarter. Activity improved in Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, although certain countries experienced renewed disruptions during the final weeks of the quarter.

In Asia, sequential revenue growth was supported by continued strength in offshore activity, particularly in India, East Asia and Indonesia.

Year on year, revenue decreased 7%, primarily reflecting a 12% decline in the Middle East due to conflict-related disruptions, partially offset by strong growth across Asia, led by offshore markets.

North America

Revenue in North America of $2.40 billion increased 7% sequentially, driven by higher sales of production chemicals, artificial lift and valves in U.S. land, along with a 23% increase in Data Center Solutions revenue. Growth was further supported by increased drilling activity in Canada following the spring breakup in the prior quarter. These gains were partially offset by lower digital exploration sales in the Gulf of America.

Year on year, revenue increased 13%, primarily reflecting stronger unconventional activity in U.S. land, as well as continued momentum in Data Center Solutions, where revenue grew 76%.

Production Systems revenue of $4.00 billion increased 6% sequentially, driven by higher sales of completions, production chemicals and artificial lift in the Middle East, as well as stronger SLB OneSubsea revenue in Scandinavia and Angola. Additional growth came from increased SLB OneSubsea projects in Latin America and Asia, along with stronger U.S. land sales of artificial lift and production chemicals.

Year on year, revenue increased 15%, primarily reflecting the contribution of ChampionX production chemicals and artificial lift businesses. These businesses contributed $950 million of revenue in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $575 million in the third quarter of 2025, when results reflected only two months of ChampionX operations.

Excluding the impact of the acquisition, Production Systems revenue increased 5% year on year, driven by strong growth in SLB OneSubsea, valves and completions. This performance underscores the resilience of international and offshore markets despite the disruptions associated with the Middle East conflict.

Production Systems pretax operating margin was 16%, expanding 60 bps sequentially. Margin expansion was driven by improved profitability in SLB OneSubsea, artificial lift, completions and production chemicals, supported by the recovery in Middle East operations. Stronger offshore activity across Europe & Africa, Latin America and Asia also contributed to the improvement. In addition, margins benefited from the accretive contribution of ChampionX's production chemicals and artificial lift businesses. Notably, ChampionX delivered sequential pretax operating margin expansion for the fourth consecutive quarter.

Year on year, pretax operating margin was essentially flat. Lower profitability in the Middle East was offset by improved profitability in Europe & Africa, Latin America and Asia, driven by higher SLB OneSubsea offshore activity. Profitability in North America also improved, reflecting the strong performance of ChampionX's production chemicals and artificial lift businesses.

The following table and commentary are presented on a pro forma basis assuming that ChampionX was acquired on January 1, 2025.

Technology Highlights

Notable technology introductions and deployments in the quarter include the following:

• In the United States, SLB deployed a sensor-based production chemistry optimization program across nearly 1,400 producing wells for a major operator in the Permian Basin, replacing manual inventory management with real-time monitoring, machine learning anomaly detection, and AI-driven injection control. Pump monitor controller units and tank-level monitor units enabled remote recalibration and centralized weekly operational reviews. The program increased on-target injection performance from 63% to 92%, reduced overtreatment from 17% to 3%, and avoided $4.4 million in net costs in the first nine months.

• Also in the United States, SLB and CNX deployed Invincible Trim™ extreme-wear-resistant choke trim in one of North America’s most abrasive unconventional gas basins, improving production uptime during a critical phase of well life. Purpose-engineered for high-erosion environments, the technology reduced shutdowns and interventions associated with conventional choke trim and supported continuous production through the most erosive period. The deployment helped optimize production, reduce maintenance requirements and improve well economics for CNX, reinforcing SLB’s ability to deliver advanced flow control solutions that enhance asset performance in challenging unconventional environments.

• In Ecuador, SLB partnered with an onshore operator to reverse prolonged production decline at a mature onshore field through an integrated recovery program combining waterflooding, infill drilling and the country’s first chemical-enhanced oil recovery pilot. The program, supported by Agora™ edge AI and IoT solutions, reduced intervention time by 98%, restored production to a peak of 86,000 barrels of oil per day, delivered 1.9 times the reserves projected at baseline and is projected to enable a 7% incremental recovery factor by 2035.

• Offshore Brazil, SLB delivered a 37-well subsea plug and abandonment campaign for a deepwater operator, completing an average of 18 days per well against a 22-day target and a 33-day industry benchmark. Using an integrated portfolio of digital slickline services — including the eFire-SL™ slickline-deployed electronic firing head, SIMplus™ retrievable bridge plugs, and SIM™ permanent plugs — alongside coiled tubing intervention, SLB reduced personnel on board by 19% compared to the benchmark and delivered $900,000 in avoided costs per well. The campaign, completed over 20 months with more than 150 digital slickline runs and 130 coiled tubing runs, demonstrates how fit-for-purpose wellbore decommissioning technology can compress both cost and cycle time at scale in deepwater environments.

• In Kuwait, SLB used precise multilateral access to control water and unlock oil production for KOC. A mature three-lateral producer experienced a water cut increase that rose to approximately 98%, threatening the well's economic viability. Using the access service of ExaCT™ electrical downhole CT control system, SLB established fast, repeatable access to each lateral, identified the dominant water-producing branch, and executed a targeted water shutoff treatment. The intervention reduced water cut by approximately 20%, increased oil production by about 505 barrels per day, and saved an estimated 96 hours compared with a conventional approach.

• In Brunei, SLB and BSP successfully completed the first deployment of the Retina™ at-bit imaging system in Southeast Asia, delivering high-resolution subsurface data with no impact on drilling performance. Enabled by a fit-for-purpose bit design and integrated with Automated Lithology, the Retina system captured 100% of the interval in a single run across two sections while providing detailed imaging of geological features. The deployment demonstrates how at-bit measurements can be converted into high-quality borehole images to strengthen formation evaluation, well planning and drilling decisions.

• Offshore Malaysia, an operator sought to maximize recovery from a thin, variably dipping sand reservoir while minimizing drilling risk amid subsurface uncertainty. SLB deployed a fully autonomous geosteering system combining Subsurface Advisor™ intelligent subsurface drilling solution, Neuro™ autonomous geosteering and GeoSphere HD™ high-definition reservoir mapping-while-drilling service. The system executed four autonomous trajectory changes with sub-20-second decision cycles, maintaining reservoir contact within 3 meters of the reservoir base throughout the lateral section, marking Asia's first fully autonomous geosteering operation.

(1)		“Net Debt” represents gross debt less cash and short-term investments. Management believes that Net Debt provides useful information to investors and management regarding the level of SLB’s indebtedness by reflecting cash and investments that could be used to repay debt. Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, total debt.
(2)		Includes depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets, exploration data costs, and APS investments.
(3)		“Free cash flow” represents cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, APS investments, and exploration data costs capitalized. Management believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of SLB’s ability to generate cash. Once business needs and obligations are met, this cash can be used to reinvest in the company for future growth or to return to shareholders through dividend payments or share repurchases. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, cash flow from operations.

Charges & Credits

In addition to financial results determined in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this third-quarter 2026 earnings release also includes non-GAAP financial measures (as defined under the SEC’s Regulation G). In addition to the non-GAAP financial measures discussed under “Liquidity”, SLB net income, excluding charges & credits, as well as measures derived from it (including diluted EPS, excluding charges & credits; effective tax rate, excluding charges & credits; adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin) are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that the exclusion of charges & credits from these financial measures provides useful perspective on SLB’s underlying business results and operating trends, and a means to evaluate SLB’s operations period over period. These measures are also used by management as performance measures in determining certain incentive compensation. The foregoing non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following is a reconciliation of certain of these non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP measures. For a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to the comparable GAAP measure, please refer to the section titled “Supplementary Information” (Question 8).

10)		What are the revenue categories in the Digital Division that offer solutions to SLB’s customers?
		Within Digital, revenue is generated from four key solutions — Platforms & Applications, Digital Operations, Digital Exploration and Professional Services.
		Platforms & Applications includes SLB’s cloud technologies such as the Delfi™ and Lumi platforms, along with a suite of specialized, domain-focused applications such as Petrel™ and Techlog™ offered as SaaS subscription or perpetual licenses. These platforms and applications automate complex models to simulate the impact of reservoir development plans and aid in the planning of key operations such as drilling, completion and production designs. Additionally, they unlock data and utilize AI and machine learning to reduce cycle time and improve efficiency of workflows to allow customers to make better, faster decisions to improve their project economics and reservoir performance.
		Revenue is recurring (with exception of one-off license sales) underpinned by a substantial base of ARR from a globally installed base, complemented by customer adoption of new cloud-based capabilities and IoT-enabled solutions.
		This category has best-in-class retention rates and limited churn.
		Digital Operations combines the unique strengths of SLB’s oilfield services with advanced digital technologies to deliver more reliable, efficient and autonomous field operations. By integrating connected solutions with Performance Live™ digital service delivery centers, customers gain real-time monitoring, remote decision making and automated execution across their workflows from autonomous drilling to automated well intervention, all while reducing costs and improving project economics.
		Revenue is generated from the same customer base as the Core divisions and is, therefore, repeatable. Additionally, a portion of the revenue is recurring in nature.
		To incentivize the Core divisions — Well Construction, Reservoir Performance and Production Systems — and Digital to develop and promote this category, the resulting revenue is recognized in both the respective Core division as well as in the Digital Division. This effect is eliminated in consolidation.
		Digital Exploration represents SLB’s exploration data business. The exploration data library is a differentiated asset library of seismic surveys and other subsurface data that customers rely on for better exploration and development decisions. These licensed datasets also support carbon storage design and monitoring. The library covers key exploration and producing basins worldwide and datasets are refreshed and reprocessed to benefit from the latest imaging algorithms and AI technologies, enabled by high-performance cloud computing. Revenue is generated from one-time, non-transferable license sales and is therefore non-recurring in nature.
		Professional Services includes consulting and other services required to support customers’ digital transformations. These services include transition support from on-prem to cloud-based digital solutions, data clean-up and migration, workflow automation — including deployment of workflow solutions built within SLB’s global network of Innovation Factori workspaces — and training to further enable customers’ digital transformations.
		Revenue in this category is largely project-based, and repetitive engagements with the same customers are common. These services generate pull-through opportunities across other digital revenue streams.
11)		How much revenue was generated from each of the categories comprising the Digital Division in the first nine months of 2026 and the first nine months of 2025? What is the pretax operating income and adjusted EBITDA of the Digital Division for those periods?
		Digital revenue, pretax operating income, and adjusted EBITDA in the first nine months of 2026 and first nine months of 2025 are detailed as follows:

	Adjusted EBITDA	$637		$582		10%
	Adjusted EBITDA margin	31.4%		31.7%		-31 bps

12)		In Digital, what is the definition of ARR and what was the ARR as of September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026, and September 30, 2025?
		ARR represents the annual value of recurring subscription and maintenance revenues from Platforms & Applications, along with the recurring portion of Digital Operations, providing a measure of predictable revenue over the next 12 months. This is calculated based on the trailing twelve months revenue and excludes one-time license sales and variable usage fees.
		ARR was $1.04 billion as of September 30, 2026, $1.04 billion as of June 30, 2026, and $926 million as of September 30, 2025, resulting in a 13% increase year on year.
13)		What is the Data Center Solutions business and where is it reported?
		The Data Center Solutions business designs and manufactures critical infrastructure components — such as modular data center enclosures, cooling systems and other hardware — for hyperscalers and enterprises. By leveraging scalable, standardized production with rapid lead times, and rigorous quality assurance, SLB provides configurable solutions that balance cost efficiency, reliability and customization to meet accelerating data center demand.
		AI-driven data demand is fueling rapid growth, and this business is going to be a material and meaningful contributor to SLB’s portfolio in the future. This business is reported in the All Other category.
14)		How much revenue was generated from the Data Center Solutions business for the third quarter of 2026, the second quarter of 2026, the third quarter of 2025, the first nine months of 2026, and the first nine months of 2025?
		Data Center Solutions revenue was $230 million in the third quarter of 2026, $186 million in the second quarter of 2026, and $131 million in the third quarter of 2025, resulting in a 23% increase sequentially and 76% increase year on year.
