Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Weatherford International plc (WFRD) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $1.143 billion, down 7% year over year. Net income attributable to Weatherford was $120 million, up 48%; adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $254 million, down 6%. Adjusted free cash flow, also a non-GAAP measure, was $155 million, up 57%.

Weatherford completed the stock-and-cash acquisition of NCS Multistage and issued notice to redeem all $236 million of its 8.625% Senior Notes due 2030; the redemption is expected to reduce annualized cash interest expense by approximately $20 million. Shareholders approved the proposed redomestication from Ireland to Delaware; it remains subject to closing conditions including Irish High Court sanction, is expected to take effect in Q4 2026, and is expected to generate annual cash savings of $20 million to $30 million beginning in 2027.

Management expects a meaningful adjusted EBITDA ramp in the fourth quarter and said it is increasing full-year adjusted free cash flow guidance. Weatherford also said recent events in the Middle East have dampened expectations for a quick recovery.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Adjusted EBITDA* financial
"Adjusted EBITDA* was $254 million"
Adjusted EBITDA* is a company’s operating profit measurement that starts with earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and then removes one‑time, irregular or noncash items the company believes obscure ongoing performance. Think of it as trying to judge a car’s steady highway fuel economy by ignoring a short detour, a traffic jam or a temporary extra load; investors use it to compare core operating results across periods and peers, but it can vary by what each company excludes.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow* financial
"Adjusted Free Cash Flow* is a non-GAAP measure"
The cash a company produces from its normal business after paying to maintain or expand its physical assets, then adjusted to remove one-time events and accounting quirks so the figure reflects ongoing operations. Think of it as the household money left after regular bills, but with a one-off expense or windfall temporarily taken out to see what you truly earn each month. Investors use it to judge how much sustainable cash is available for dividends, buybacks, debt repayment and reinvestment, and to compare performance across periods or peers.
Redomestication regulatory
"proposed Redomestication from Ireland to Delaware"
Redomestication is a company changing its legal home from one country or state to another by re-registering or swapping shares, much like a person moving their official address to a new jurisdiction. Investors care because that legal home determines tax rules, shareholder rights, regulatory oversight and listing requirements, which can affect dividend treatment, voting power, legal protections and the ease of buying or selling the stock.
Net Leverage* financial
"Net Leverage* (Net Debt*/Adjusted EBITDA*)"
Revenue $1.143 billion Down 7% year over year
Operating income $153 million Down 14% year over year
Net income attributable to Weatherford $120 million Up 48% year over year

Houston, October 20, 2026 – Weatherford International plc (NASDAQ: WFRD) (“Weatherford” or the “Company”) announced today its results for the third quarter of 2026.
Revenues for the third quarter of 2026 were $1,143 million, an increase of 3% sequentially and a decrease of 7% year-over-year. Operating income in the third quarter of 2026 was $153 million, an increase of 43% sequentially and a decrease of 14% year-over-year. Net income in the third quarter of 2026 was $120 million, with a 10.5% margin, an increase of 208%, or 697 basis points, sequentially, and an increase of 48%, or 392 basis points, year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA* was $254 million, with a 22.2% margin*, an increase of 14% or 204 basis points, sequentially, and a decrease of 6% but an expansion of 39 basis points, year-over-year. Basic income per share in the third quarter of 2026 was $1.66, an increase of 200% sequentially and an increase of 47% year-over-year. Diluted income per share in the third quarter of 2026 was $1.66, an increase of 199% sequentially and an increase of 48% year-over-year.
Third quarter 2026 cash flows provided by operating activities were $192 million, an increase of 10% sequentially and an increase of 39% year-over-year. Adjusted free cash flow* was $155 million, an increase of 12% sequentially and an increase of 57% year-over-year. Capital expenditures were $45 million in the third quarter of 2026, an increase of 7% sequentially and an increase of 2% year-over-year.
Girish Saligram, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The One Weatherford team delivered an excellent third quarter, with adjusted EBITDA margin* expanding 204 basis points sequentially to 22.2% and adjusted free cash flow* of $155 million. Even as conflict related operational disruptions in the Middle East weighed on activity levels, the strength of our diversified portfolio, disciplined cost management, and outstanding execution across the organization drove margin expansion and strong cash generation. These results demonstrate the durability of our operating model, agility to pivot in any phase of the cycle, and the earnings potential of the business as activity recovers.
We also made significant progress on our strategic priorities during the quarter. The closing of the NCS Multistage acquisition strengthens our completions portfolio, broadens our technology capabilities, and positions us to realize meaningful cost and commercial synergies. We further enhanced our capital structure by issuing a notice to redeem the remaining $236 million principal amount of our 2030 Senior Notes, reducing future interest expense. Shareholders approved our proposed redomestication to Delaware, an important step toward a simpler, more efficient corporate structure and improved free cash flow generation. Finally, our Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) transformation remains on track, with our first major application launching very smoothly in the third quarter, enabling greater process standardization, simplification, operational efficiency and scalability across the enterprise.
We enter the final quarter of the year with strong momentum to springboard into 2027. While the recent events in the Middle East have dampened expectations of a quick recovery, we still see a meaningful ramp in adjusted EBITDA* in the fourth quarter and are increasing our full year adjusted free cash flow* guidance yet again. We see significant market opportunities for growth heading into 2027 and are very well positioned to capitalize on those.”

Technology Highlights
•Drilling & Evaluation (“DRE”)
◦In Thailand, Weatherford deployed its Magnus SakerTM drilling system across six high-temperature well sections, achieving 100% geological target success through single-run shoe-to-shoe operation. The campaign eliminated an additional drilling assembly trip, saved over 100 operational hours, equivalent to over five rig days, and delivered significant customer savings while exceeding the operator’s drilling performance target.
◦In the United Kingdom (“UK”), Weatherford completed the first deployment of its Dual Advanced Kickover Tool technology to replace multiple gas-lift valves in a highly deviated offshore well. The solution completed the work in two intervention runs rather than the four typically required, reducing intervention runs by half, saving rig time and reducing personnel exposure at the wellsite.

•Well Construction and Completions (“WCC”)
◦With our acquisition of NCS Multistage, we now bring into our portfolio a differentiated completions technology platform that has surpassed 500,000 frac stages completed since 2009. During the quarter, we secured a Deepwater Gulf of America award for its frac sleeves and service tools following four years of collaborative development with a major international operator. The award expands our footprint into the offshore market, creates a platform for future growth, and highlights the potential to leverage these technologies across a broader range of completion applications.
◦In Saudi Arabia, Weatherford deployed a three-stage DV (“Differential Valve”) Tool for the cementing of a 9-5/8” casing string for Aramco. An open hole annulus casing packer enabled isolation, allowing higher-density fluids in subsequent stages, while staged tools restored internal gas tight integrity, and a V0-rated packer secured the casing-to-casing annulus, supporting an optimized cement program and long-term well integrity.
◦In Malaysia, Weatherford completed the first Mature Asset Rejuvenation by Surveillance System (“MARS”) deployment of its kind in Asia for Petronas to evaluate a gas-lift well where a restricted internal diameter prevented the use of conventional tools. The technology completed a full diagnostic survey and accurately identified the leak location, enabling multi-point gas-lift injection diagnosis while avoiding alternative intervention methods.

•Production and Intervention (“PRI”)
◦In the U.S., Weatherford completed the first commercial installation of its ForeSite® Power Regenerative System Retrofit on an existing rod-lift well. The system captures and reuses energy generated during each pumping cycle, delivering over 50% in energy savings while lowering operating costs and emissions without requiring replacement of the installed drive.
◦In Colombia, Weatherford completed the world’s first deployment of its SandSureTM XT sand consolidation technology to control sand production without conventional downhole screens. The solution consolidated the sand in place, reducing intervention requirements and lifecycle costs while preserving production performance and improving long-term well reliability.

Corporate Treasury
Debt repayment: On October 20, 2026, Weatherford issued a notice to redeem all of its 8.625% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $236 million. The 2030 Senior Notes will be redeemed at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to and including the redemption date of October 30, 2026. The redemption is expected to be funded using cash on hand and is expected to reduce annualized cash interest expense by approximately $20 million. This disclosure does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the 2030 Senior Notes.
Credit Ratings: During the third quarter of 2026, Fitch Ratings and S&P Global Ratings revised their outlook on Weatherford to ‘Positive Outlook’ from ‘Stable Outlook’, while affirming the Company’s ‘BB’ credit rating. Moody’s affirmed its ‘Ba2’ rating with a ‘Positive Outlook’. Despite the challenging conditions in the Middle East, these actions recognize Weatherford’s continued improvement in credit profile, supported by a stronger balance sheet, enhanced financial flexibility, and prudent capital allocation.

Shareholder Return
During the third quarter of 2026, Weatherford paid dividends of $19 million and repurchased shares for $28 million, resulting in a total shareholder return of $47 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, Weatherford paid dividends of $59 million and repurchased shares for approximately $54 million, resulting in a total shareholder return of $113 million.
On October 15, 2026, our Board declared a cash dividend of $0.275 per share of the Company’s ordinary shares. The dividend is payable on December 3, 2026, to shareholders of record as of November 6, 2026.

Other Events
The shareholders of Weatherford approved all proposals required to effect the Company’s updated plan of redomestication from Ireland to Delaware, including approval at both the Scheme Meeting and Extraordinary General Meeting. The redomestication remains subject to previously disclosed closing conditions, including sanction by the Irish High Court. Subject to satisfaction of those conditions, the Company expects the transition to become effective during the fourth quarter of 2026. The redomestication shareholder vote marks a significant milestone in Weatherford’s continued transformation and advances the Company’s plan to establish a corporate structure better aligned with its global operations, long-term strategy, and shareholder base. This transaction is expected to generate $20 million to $30 million in annual cash savings beginning in 2027, which we believe is an important contributor to continued improvement in adjusted free cash flow conversion.

Third quarter 2026 Europe/Sub-Sahara Africa/Russia revenue of $235 million decreased by $22 million, or 9% sequentially, primarily from lower activity across the reported segments, partly offset by higher Wireline activity in Europe. Year-over-year, Europe/Sub-Sahara Africa/Russia revenue decreased by $7 million, or 3%, primarily from lower Wireline and Liner Hangers activity, partly offset by higher activity in the PRI segment.

Weatherford International plc
Non-GAAP Financial Measures Defined (Unaudited)

We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, Weatherford’s management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures (as defined under the SEC’s Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K) may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods and comparisons with peer companies. The non-GAAP amounts shown in the following tables should not be considered as substitutes for results reported in accordance with GAAP but should be viewed in addition to the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA* - Adjusted EBITDA* is a non-GAAP measure and represents consolidated income before interest expense, net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and excludes, among other items, restructuring charges, share-based compensation expense, as well as other charges and credits. Management believes adjusted EBITDA* is useful to assess and understand normalized operating performance and trends. Adjusted EBITDA* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for consolidated net income and should be viewed in addition to the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA margin* - Adjusted EBITDA margin* is a non-GAAP measure which is calculated by dividing consolidated adjusted EBITDA* by consolidated revenues. Management believes adjusted EBITDA margin* is useful to assess and understand normalized operating performance and trends. Adjusted EBITDA margin* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for consolidated net income margin and should be viewed in addition to the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow* - Adjusted Free Cash Flow* is a non-GAAP measure and represents cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures plus proceeds from the disposition of assets. Management believes adjusted free cash flow* is useful to understand our performance at generating cash and demonstrates our discipline around the use of cash. Adjusted free cash flow* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for cash flows provided by operating activities and should be viewed in addition to the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion* - Adjusted free cash flow conversion* is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by dividing adjusted free cash flow* by adjusted EBITDA*. Management believes adjusted free cash flow conversion* is useful to assess the level of normalized liquidity generated in the operating cycle. Adjusted free cash flow conversion* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for the GAAP measures described above for the respective components, and should be viewed in addition to the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Net Debt* - Net Debt* is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated taking short and long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Management believes the net debt* is useful to assess the level of debt in excess of cash and cash equivalents as we monitor our ability to repay and service our debt. Net debt* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for overall debt and total cash and should be viewed in addition to the Company’s results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Net Leverage* - Net Leverage* is a non-GAAP measure which is calculated by taking net debt* divided by adjusted EBITDA* for the trailing 12 months. Management believes the net leverage* is useful to understand our ability to repay and service our debt. Net leverage* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the individual components of above defined net debt* divided by consolidated net income attributable to Weatherford and should be viewed in addition to the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Gross Leverage* - Gross Leverage* is a non-GAAP measure which is calculated by dividing total debt by adjusted EBITDA* for the trailing 12 months. Management believes gross leverage* is useful to understand our ability to repay and service our debt. Gross leverage* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, total debt divided by consolidated net income attributable to Weatherford and should be viewed in addition to the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
