Headwinds

  • First quarter revenue is expected to be down sequentially by approximately 15% and relatively flat year-on-year.

  • Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter of 2025 is expected to be sequentially lower by about 400 bps.
  • Near-term headwinds attributed to whitespace in deepwater activity.
