The company advanced its portfolio strategy, closing divestitures and a joint venture expected to generate about $3 billion of 2026 gross proceeds, and highlighted major LNG, gas infrastructure, carbon capture and geothermal awards that support long‑term energy infrastructure growth.
Positive
- Profitability and backlog improved materially: Net income rose to $930 million (up 131% year‑over‑year), adjusted EBITDA increased 12% to $1.158 billion, and Remaining Performance Obligations reached $36.1 billion, including record IET RPO of $33.1 billion, indicating strong multi‑year revenue visibility.
- Major portfolio and balance‑sheet actions: Closed or announced transactions, including PSI, surface pressure control and Waygate Technologies, are expected to generate approximately $3 billion of gross proceeds in 2026, while Q1 business dispositions produced a $721 million gain and helped lift cash to $14.764 billion.
Negative
- Cash generation and OFSE trends softened: Free cash flow declined to $210 million from $454 million a year earlier, and Oilfield Services & Equipment revenue fell 7% year‑over‑year to $3.237 billion, pressured by portfolio exits and Middle East disruptions.

Remaining Performance Obligations financial
"Remaining Performance Obligations ("RPO") in the first quarter of 2026 ended at $36.1 billion"
Remaining performance obligations are the work a company still needs to complete for its customers, like finishing a service or delivering a product. It’s important because it shows how much future income the company has coming in from current agreements, giving a clearer picture of its ongoing business.
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the first quarter of 2026 was $1,158 million"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
free cash flow financial
"Free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the quarter was $210 million"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
book-to-bill ratio financial
"The Company's total book-to-bill ratio in the first quarter of 2026 was 1.2; the IET book-to-bill ratio was 1.5."
The book-to-bill ratio compares the value of new orders a company receives to the value of products it ships out or bills for over a certain period. If the ratio is above 1, it means the company is getting more orders than it is completing, which can indicate growth. If it's below 1, it suggests demand is slowing down.
Climate Technology Solutions financial
"Climate Technology Solutions | 1,257 | | 310 | | 148 | | | F | F Total Orders"
non-GAAP financial
"Management provides non-GAAP financial measures because it believes such measures are widely accepted"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

HOUSTON & LONDON (April 23, 2026) – Baker Hughes Company (Nasdaq: BKR) ("Baker Hughes" or the "Company") announced results today for the first quarter of 2026.
"Our exceptional first-quarter performance highlights the strength of our portfolio and the momentum we are building as we progress through Horizon 2(1). Despite significant disruptions in the Middle East, our teams executed at a high level and delivered results that exceeded our guidance range. Although we recognize this achievement, we continue to prioritize the safety and wellbeing of our employees and their families in the region," said Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
"In IET, we delivered another outstanding quarter, with record orders of $4.9 billion, marking the third consecutive quarter above $4 billion. This performance reflects the diversity and versatility of the IET portfolio and the growing strength across energy infrastructure, as highlighted by $1.4 billion in Power Systems orders and further progress in LNG, gas infrastructure and CCS. IET also reported a book-to-bill of 1.5x for the quarter, resulting in record backlog of $33.1 billion."
"The Baker Hughes Business System is strengthening our operating results, supporting disciplined execution, and positioning us for continued growth, higher margins, and stronger free cash flow. Both OFSE and IET delivered strong results amid Middle East disruptions, underscoring the versatility and durability of the portfolios."
"We also continue to advance our portfolio management strategy, including the recently announced divestiture of Waygate Technologies, which combined with the two transactions that closed in the quarter, is expected to generate gross proceeds of approximately $3 billion in 2026, further strengthening our balance sheet."
"Looking ahead, our outlook for the business fundamentals remains unchanged, excluding the ongoing impacts in the Middle East. While the conflict presents near-term challenges, it is further reinforcing energy security as a priority, which is expected to support structural growth in upstream and global energy infrastructure spending. Ultimately, we remain confident in our strategy and our ability to deliver long-term value for shareholders," concluded Simonelli.
* Non-GAAP measure. See reconciliations in the section titled "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management provides non-GAAP financial measures because it believes such measures are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance (including adjusted EBITDA; adjusted net income attributable to Baker Hughes; and adjusted diluted earnings per share) and liquidity (free cash flow) and that these measures may be used by investors to make informed investment decisions. Management believes that the exclusion of certain identified items from several key operating performance measures enables us to evaluate our operations more effectively, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals for certain management compensation purposes. Management also believes that free cash flow is an important supplemental measure of our cash performance but should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP.
