Executive Summary

NOV issued a preliminary update for Q1 2026, citing Middle East conflict disruptions that will reduce revenue and earnings below prior guidance. Expected revenue is $2.05 billion and Adjusted EBITDA is $177 million, significantly missing consensus expectations.

Actionable Insight

The Q1 revenue holds steady but profitability is under severe pressure — watch for operating margin contraction and cost absorption issues in the final report. Given the magnitude of the Q4 EPS miss and lowered Q1 outlook, expect downward revisions to full-year estimates and cautious tone on capital allocation.

Key Facts

  • Preliminary Q1 2026 revenue expected at $2.05 billion, below consensus of $2.05B (flat but at lower profitability)
  • Adjusted EBITDA expected at $177 million, well below prior guidance and implied consensus trend
  • CEO cites $54M revenue and $32M EBITDA impact from Middle East conflict due to delivery delays and higher freight costs
  • Final results to be released April 27, 2026, with conference call on April 28
  • Reported EPS of $-0.02 for Q4 2025 represents a 113.6% miss vs. $0.15 consensus

Financial Impact

Revenue in line with consensus but earnings sharply below trend; Q4 EPS miss of 113.6% and deteriorating EBITDA point to margin collapse

Risk Factors

  • Final results could be worse than preliminary estimates due to ongoing conflict and logistical challenges
  • Prolonged Middle East disruptions may lead to customer project delays and reduced equipment demand
  • Further earnings misses and guidance cuts possible if conflict persists
