Expro Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results

Expro Ltd (NYSE: XPRO) (the “Company” or “Expro”) today reported financial and operational results for the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Highlights

• Revenue was $393 million
• Net income of $2 million
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $76 million with an Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ of 19.3%
• Cash flow from operations of $81 million, or 20.7% of revenue
• Adjusted free cash flow⁽²⁾ of $56 million
• Share repurchases of approximately $20 million (1.3 million shares at an average of $15.42 per share)
• Liquidity at the end of the quarter stood at $492 million

Michael Jardon, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our second quarter results reflect a good sequential increase coming out of a seasonally low first quarter. This is despite the impacts caused by the Middle East conflict that tempered our second quarter results.

“During the quarter we continued to execute across our disciplined capital allocation framework. The Company’s capital allocation centers around investing in the business, maintaining a solid financial position, M&A, and returning cash to shareholders through share repurchases. All of these were achieved during the second quarter of 2026. The Company invested roughly $30 million in capital expenditures funding accretive and high-return projects, announced the acquisition of Enhanced Drilling, and maintained a strong balance sheet. Specifically, on returning cash to shareholders, the Company repurchased approximately $20 million or 1.3 million shares during the second quarter. This brings the year-to-date repurchases to approximately 2.5 million shares, representing approximately $40 million of cash returned to shareholders. The significance is that Expro is already very close to achieving its annual goal of returning at least one-third of free cash flow to shareholders.

“With regards to the Middle East, the conflict and its impacts on our operations have persisted longer than we had previously anticipated. That said, we have been more positive on the developing medium-to-long-term outlook for our business. Increasing subsea trees orders and offshore rig utilization reinforce the view of a strengthening offshore market. We believe this will result in a more robust activity set for Expro in the coming years. Furthermore, operators are placing greater emphasis on technology-enabled efficiency gains, which I believe is one of our strengths and a reason why they chose Expro as their service provider. Along those lines, we recently closed on the Enhanced Drilling acquisition which adds a differentiated technological capability to our service portfolio. Finally, our commitment to driving efficiency gains does not stop with our customers. We are continually evaluating what we can do to drive further efficiency gains of our own, through cost control and other various internal initiatives.”

Free Cash Flow

Expro generated $81 million in net cash provided by operating activities in the second quarter of 2026. After capital expenditures of $31 million, Expro generated $50 million of free cash flow and $56 million of Adjusted free cash flow in the second quarter of 2026.

Management believes that Adjusted free cash flow better reflects the Company’s performance by excluding one-time items, in line with corporate finance principles.

Shareholder Return

During the second quarter of 2026, the Company repurchased approximately 1.3 million shares at an average price of $15.42 per share, resulting in approximately $20 million of share repurchases. After the share repurchases during the first and second quarters of 2026, the Company has approximately $60 million remaining under its current Board of Directors share repurchase authorization to acquire up to $100 million of outstanding shares. For the full year 2026, Expro remains committed to utilizing at least 33% of the annual Adjusted free cash flow generated for capital returns to shareholders.

Drive25 and Additional Cost Efficiency Programs

Expro has successfully completed all internal projects as part of the Company’s Drive 25 self-help program. As expected, Expro expects to fully realize more than $40 million of structural cost removals in 2026.

Additionally, Expro remains focused on driving ongoing efficiency improvements and further optimizing its cost base. As part of its continuous portfolio review process, the Company is assessing targeted actions across selected geographies and product lines to improve returns, enhance operating leverage, and support sustained margin expansion and free cash flow growth.

Short-Term Outlook

While the geopolitical situation in the Middle East remains uncertain, volatile, and has temporarily moderated the pace of the projected activity growth for Expro in high-margin businesses in the region, we have been encouraged by the resilience of our MENA operations, which has performed strongly despite the ongoing disruption.

Importantly, the fundamental thesis underpinning our outlook for 2026 remains firmly intact. We continue to see a significant step-change in Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Adjusted free cash flow performance during the second half of the year. We expect these will be driven by the continued execution of our strategic initiatives, strong operating leverage across the business, and five months of contribution from the recently completed Enhanced Drilling acquisition.

While our outlook conservatively reflects the near-term impacts of the regional conflict and a gradual recovery in activity levels, we expect second-half of 2026 Adjusted EBITDA margins to exceed 24%, with fourth-quarter margins exceeding 26%, representing a substantial improvement versus the first half of the year. We remain focused on the factors within our control, including disciplined execution, portfolio optimization, and operational efficiency initiatives, all of which support our long-term objective of delivering sustainable earnings growth, expanding margins, and increasing free cash flow generation.

Financial Guidance

Based upon the prevailing conflict in the Middle East and the recent closing of the Enhanced Drilling acquisition we have updated our financial guidance. With regards to the disruptions from the Middle East conflict, we expect there will be quarterly impacts throughout the remainder of 2026; however, not to the same extent as experienced during the second quarter. With regards to the Enhanced Drilling acquisition, we will include five months of operations in our 2026 results.

For the second half of 2026, we still see tangible sequential increases in our quarterly results driven by:

Previously, we had expected our operations in the Middle East countries to normalize during the back half of the year, which would have been additive to the results in the second half of 2026. As mentioned above, those expectations have changed with some of the impacts now expected through year end. Additionally, we had anticipated our Coretrax product line to generate incremental contributions across our geographic segments, particularly in Middle East where that product line has its largest exposure. Now however, the amount of the expected incremental contributions coming from Coretrax is lower than previously anticipated. Both of these factors serve to moderate our previous annual expectations.

To account for these uncertainties, we are taking a conservative approach to our revised guidance; however, we do expect to be able to capture some upside above these estimates in the second half of the year, particularly in the fourth quarter.

Other Financial Information

As of June 30, 2026, Expro’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, totaled $200 million, and the Company’s total liquidity stood at $492 million. Total liquidity includes $292 million available for drawdowns as loans under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The Company had outstanding long-term borrowings of $79 million as of June 30, 2026.

On April 1, 2026, Expro’s Board of Directors unanimously approved a plan to change the Company’s corporate domicile from the Netherlands to the Cayman Islands (the “Redomicile”). The proposals related to the Redomicile were approved by a shareholder vote during the Company’s Annual Shareholder Meeting on June 10, 2026. The Redomicile was completed on July 13, 2026.

On July 23, 2026, Expro closed on the acquisition of Enhanced Drilling. Under the terms of the agreement Expro purchased Enhanced Drilling for approximately 2 billion Norwegian kroner (“NOK”) in cash (approximately $215 million) plus customary closing and working capital adjustments.

Revenue for the NLA segment was $129 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $1 million, or 1%, compared to $128 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The increase was primarily driven by higher well intervention revenue in Argentina and increased well construction activity in Brazil, partially offset by lower well intervention revenue in Colombia.

Segment EBITDA for the NLA segment was $26 million, or 20% of revenues, during the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $0.1 million, or 1%, compared to $26 million, or 20%, of revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa (ESSA)

Revenue for the ESSA segment was $127 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $13 million, or 11%, compared to $114 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to higher well flow management activities in the United Kingdom and Norway, partially offset by lower well flow management revenue in Republic of the Congo.

Segment EBITDA for the ESSA segment was $34 million, or 27% of revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $3 million, or 8%, compared to $32 million, or 28% of revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The increase in Segment EBITDA was primarily attributable to higher revenue, partially offset by a decrease in segment EBITDA margin due to reduced work on higher margin projects.

Middle East and North Africa (MENA)

Revenue for the MENA segment was $90 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $8 million, or 10%, compared to $82 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to higher well construction revenue in Egypt.

Segment EBITDA for the MENA segment was $33 million, or 36% of revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $9 million, or 39%, compared to $24 million, or 29% of revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The increase in Segment EBITDA and Segment EBITDA margin is consistent with the increase in revenue and favorable activity mix.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, contribution, contribution margin, free cash flow, free cash flow margin, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow margin, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, which may be used periodically by management when discussing financial results with investors and analysts. The accompanying schedules of this press release provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management believes these metrics provide additional information relative to the performance of the business. These metrics are commonly employed by financial analysts and investors to evaluate the operating and financial performance of Expro from period to period and to compare such performance with the performance of other publicly traded companies within the industry. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, contribution, contribution margin, free cash flow, free cash flow margin, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Expro’s results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, contribution, contribution margin, free cash flow, free cash flow margin, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow margin, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share may be defined differently by other companies in the industry, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

Please see the accompanying financial tables for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.
