- Backlog increased to $2.5 billion (a $196 million Q4 rise) and includes a notable four‑year, $380 million North Africa award, giving multi‑year revenue visibility.
- 2026 revenue is guided to be roughly flat to 2025, but management expects further EBITDA margin expansion and higher free cash flow (stable CapEx); they cautioned Q1 will be seasonally weaker.
- Management emphasized technology deployments and globalization—first‑of‑its‑kind XRD Spider, CATs ATX real‑time downhole control, and wider Coretrax rollouts—which they say boost efficiency, safety, and wallet share.
- Capital allocation remains balanced across organic investment, selective M&A, shareholder returns (target ≥1/3 of FCF via buybacks), and a strong balance sheet; total liquidity was $551 million after a voluntary revolver paydown.
