Middle East conflicts cause revenue and earnings decline in Q1
SLB's Q1 2026 was disrupted by the Middle East conflict, with revenue down 10.5% sequentially and margins compressed. Management sees a gradual recovery starting in Q2 and a strong long-term demand cycle driven by energy security, higher oil prices, and the need to replenish lost production. Digital, data centers, and production recovery are strategic growth pillars. Middle East conflict caused ~$200M revenue shortfall in Q1; recovery expected to be gradual with an incremental 6-8c EPS headwind in Q2 partially offset by international growth.
