Briefing

NOV Inc reported Q2 2025 revenue of $2.19 billion and net income of $108 million.

NOV Inc delivered revenue of $2.188 billion in Q2 2025, down 1% year-over-year, with operating profit of $143 million and net income attributable to the company of $108 million ($0.29 per share). Results were impacted by lower global drilling activity and a prior-year gain on business sale, partially offset by strong backlog execution in Energy Equipment.

  • Revenue declined 1% YoY to $2.188 billion amid a 6% drop in worldwide rig count.
  • Operating profit fell 54% to $143 million due to absence of $130 million prior-year divestiture gain and restructuring charges.
  • Energy Equipment backlog stood at $4.3 billion with 66% book-to-bill; Adjusted EBITDA margin reached 11.5%.
  • Company returned $242 million to shareholders via $107 million dividends and $135 million share repurchases in the quarter.

Forward guidance

Macroeconomic uncertainties from geopolitics, trade policies, and OPEC+ decisions create downside risk and market volatility; management expects no change to long-term industry trends favoring offshore/international and natural gas resources.

Tailwinds

  • Focus on innovative technologies to lower marginal cost of energy production
  • Strong execution on higher-margin backlog supporting profitability

Headwinds

  • Difficult environment for capital investment decisions
  • Greater uncertainty with clearer downside risk than upside
