- What they said
- NOV reported Q2 2026 revenues of $2.13 billion (up 4% sequentially, down 2.5% YoY) with net income of $112 million ($0.31 EPS). Adjusted EBITDA was $283 million, including a ~$40 million AIPA tariff benefit; excluding this, EBITDA was $243 million with ~80% incremental conversion on sequential revenue growth. Tariff expenses rose ~$20 million YoY. Safety metrics improved for the second consecutive quarter. Middle East logistics remain challenging but stabilizing.
- Guidance
- Management expects capital equipment orders to pick up later in 2026 with a more significant increase in 2027. Shorter-cycle offerings (drill pipe, fiberglass) remain strong. Operational improvements are expected to continue outpacing inflationary pressures despite ongoing geopolitical and commodity price uncertainty.
