Bristow Group Inc. reported stronger results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, with total revenues of $411.8 million versus $388.7 million in Q1 2026. Net income attributable to the company rose to $21.2 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, from $13.1 million, or $0.44 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $79.8 million from $59.3 million, and Free Cash Flow improved to $34.3 million from negative $12.6 million.
Offshore Energy Services revenues grew to $261.6 million with higher rates and fuel revenues and Adjusted Operating Income rising to $66.5 million. Government Services revenues increased to $112.2 million, though the segment recorded an operating loss of $2.1 million as penalties related to aircraft availability, fuel expenses in excess of fuel revenues, and transition costs pressured margins. Other Services revenues climbed to $37.9 million, shifting from an operating loss to operating income.
The company affirmed its 2026 Adjusted EBITDA outlook of $295–$325 million on projected total revenues of $1.64–$1.72 billion. Liquidity remained solid with $312.3 million of unrestricted cash and $371.6 million of total liquidity. Bristow completed the $105.0 million all-cash acquisition of Berry Aviation, enhancing Government Services capabilities, and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.125 per share.
Bristow Group Inc. plans a strategic reshaping of its business by agreeing to acquire Berry Aviation for $105 million in cash and pursuing the sale of its Norway Offshore Energy Services business. Berry Aviation generated about $108 million of revenue in 2025 and brings special mission, government and unmanned aviation capabilities focused on U.S. defense and government customers.
The deal is expected to be immediately accretive to Bristow’s earnings and free cash flow and to boost its EBITDA margin profile. On a 2025 pro forma basis including Berry and excluding Norway, Bristow’s revenue mix would shift to roughly 54% Offshore Energy Services, 35% Government Services and 11% Other Services, compared with an actual mix more weighted to Offshore Energy. The acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, funded with cash on hand, subject to customary conditions.
