1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Schlumberger Limited and its subsidiaries (“SLB”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of SLB management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025.

The estimated fair value of SLB’s Long-term Debt, based on quoted market prices at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was $10.5 billion and $10.4 billion, respectively.
At June 30, 2025, SLB had committed credit facility agreements with commercial banks aggregating $5.0 billion, of which $2.0 billion matures in February 2028 and $3.0 billion matures in December 2029. These committed facilities support commercial paper programs in the United States and Europe. There were no borrowings under these facilities at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Commercial paper borrowings are classified as long-term debt to the extent they are backed up by available and unused committed credit facilities maturing in more than one year and to the extent it is SLB’s intent to maintain these obligations for longer than one year. Borrowings under the commercial paper programs at June 30, 2025, were $1.1 billion, all of which were classified in Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. There were no borrowings under the commercial paper programs at December 31, 2024.
Schlumberger Limited fully and unconditionally guarantees the securities issued by certain of its subsidiaries, including securities issued by Schlumberger Investment S.A. and Schlumberger Finance Canada Ltd., both indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Schlumberger Limited.
8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
SLB’s functional currency is primarily the US dollar. However, outside the United States, a significant portion of SLB’s expenses is incurred in foreign currencies. Therefore, when the US dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the foreign currencies of the countries in which SLB conducts business, the US dollar-reported expenses will increase (decrease).
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates expose SLB to risks on future cash flows relating to its fixed rate debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. SLB uses cross-currency interest rate swaps to provide a hedge against these risks. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the fair value of the derivative recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Amounts recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods that the hedged item is recognized in earnings.
Details regarding SLB’s outstanding cross-currency interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2025, were as follows:
•
During 2019, SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps in order to hedge changes in the fair value of its €0.5 billion 0.25% Notes due 2027 and €0.5 billion 0.50% Notes due 2031 that were issued by a US-dollar functional currency subsidiary. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the Euro-denominated notes to US-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 2.51% and 2.76%, respectively.
•
During 2020, a US-dollar functional currency subsidiary of SLB issued €0.8 billion of Euro-denominated debt. SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the US dollar value of its €0.4 billion of 0.25% Notes due 2027 and €0.4 billion of 0.50% Notes due 2031. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the Euro-denominated notes to US-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 1.87% and 2.20%, respectively.
•
During 2020, a US-dollar functional currency subsidiary of SLB issued €2.0 billion of Euro-denominated debt. SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the US dollar value of its €1.0 billion of 1.375% Guaranteed Notes due 2026 and €1.0 billion of 2.00% Guaranteed Notes due 2032. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the Euro-denominated notes to US-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 2.77% and 3.49%, respectively.
A summary of the amounts included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet relating to cross currency interest rate swaps was as follows:

The fair values were determined using a model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived or corroborated by observable data.
SLB is exposed to risks on future cash flows to the extent that the local currency is not the functional currency and expenses denominated in local currency are not equal to revenues denominated in local currency. SLB uses foreign currency forward contracts to provide a hedge against a portion of these cash flow risks. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges.
SLB is also exposed to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. While SLB uses foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge this exposure as it relates to certain currencies, these contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Instead, the fair value of the derivative is recorded on the Consolidated
13
Balance Sheet and changes in the fair value are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income, as are changes in the fair value of the hedged item.
Foreign currency forward contracts were outstanding for the US dollar equivalent of $5.1 billion and $5.5 billion in various foreign currencies as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Other than the previously mentioned cross-currency interest rate swaps, the fair value of the other outstanding derivatives was not material as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

SLB has issued credit default swaps (“CDSs”) to certain third-party financial institutions that have an aggregate notional amount outstanding of approximately $1.0 billion as of June 30, 2025. The CDSs relate to borrowings provided by the financial institutions to SLB’s primary customer in Mexico. The borrowings were used by this customer to pay certain of SLB’s outstanding receivables. Approximately $0.2 billion of the outstanding CDSs reduces on a monthly basis over its remaining 8-month term while the remaining $0.8 billion reduces on a monthly basis over its remaining 12-month term. The fair value of these derivative liabilities was not material at June 30, 2025.
9. Contingencies
SLB is party to various legal proceedings from time to time. A liability is accrued when a loss is both probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that the probability of a material loss with respect to any currently pending legal proceeding is remote. However, litigation is inherently uncertain, and it is not possible to predict the ultimate disposition of any of these proceedings.

Second-quarter 2025 revenue of $8.5 billion increased 1% compared to the first quarter of 2025. SLB’s broad exposure across geographies and business lines enabled it to effectively overcome the impact of certain regional activity slowdowns. As a result, international revenue increased 2% sequentially, driven by robust growth in some parts of the Middle East, Asia, Europe and North Africa, which more than offset declines in certain key markets. Revenue in North America decreased 4% sequentially as a result of lower Asset Performance Solutions (“APS”) revenue and reduced activity due to the Canadian seasonal spring break.
Despite pockets of activity adjustments in key markets, the industry has shown that it can operate through uncertainty without a significant drop in upstream spending. This has been driven by the combination of capital discipline and the need for energy security.
Assuming commodity prices stay range bound, SLB remain constructive for the second half of the year. This is supported by its position in key markets, the depth of its diversified portfolio, and its increased exposure to the growing production and recovery market through the acquisition of ChampionX, which closed on July 16, 2025 (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). SLB will also continue to manage costs in line with market conditions as it remains focused on delivering peer-leading margins.
Digital & Integration
Digital & Integration revenue of $995 million decreased 1% sequentially primarily due to lower APS revenue in Canada. Digital revenue remained steady, with double-digit sequential growth from the combined effects of platforms, applications and digital operations, offset by reduced sales of exploration data following a strong first quarter.
Digital & Integration pretax operating margin of 33% expanded 240 basis points (“bps”) sequentially, driven by greater digital adoption and efficiency gains.
Reservoir Performance
Reservoir Performance revenue of $1.7 billion declined 1% sequentially due to a slowdown in evaluation and stimulation activity across international markets, partially offset by strong intervention activity.
Reservoir Performance pretax operating margin of 19% increased 203 bps sequentially as a result of the higher intervention activity and the absence of startup costs that impacted the first quarter.
19
Well Construction
Well Construction revenue of $3.0 billion was essentially flat sequentially. Higher revenue in Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, offshore Mexico, North Africa and Nigeria were offset by declines in drilling activity in Namibia, North America land markets, Argentina and Saudi Arabia.
Well Construction pretax operating margin of 19% declined 119 bps sequentially primarily due to an unfavorable geography mix in the international markets.
Production Systems
Production Systems revenue of $3.0 billion increased 3% sequentially primarily due to higher sales of artificial lift systems and midstream production solutions.
Production Systems sequential pretax operating margin remained steady at 16% primarily due to continued growth and a favorable activity mix.

Six-month 2025 revenue of $17.0 billion decreased 5% year on year primarily due to activity reductions in Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and certain key offshore markets. As a result, international revenue declined by 6% year on year. North America revenue increased by 4% primarily due to growth in data center infrastructure solutions.
Digital & Integration
Digital & Integration revenue of $2.0 billion was flat year on year. Revenue growth from platform, applications and digital operations of 10% was offset by lower sales exploration data and lower APS revenue.
Digital & Integration pretax operating margin of 32% increased 272 bps year on year driven by greater digital adoption and efficiency gains.
Reservoir Performance
Reservoir Performance revenue of $3.4 billion decreased 4% year on year primarily due to a slowdown in evaluation and stimulation activity in the international markets.

Reservoir Performance pretax operating margin of 18% contracted 259 bps year on year due to the lower evaluation and stimulation activity.
Well Construction
Well Construction revenue of $5.9 billion declined 12% year on year driven by a broad reduction in drilling activity both internationally, mainly in Saudi Arabia, Mexico and offshore Africa, and in North America.
Well Construction pretax operating margin of 19% declined 193 bps year on year driven by the widespread activity reductions.
Production Systems
Production Systems revenue of $6.0 billion increased 2% year on year driven by strong demand for data center infrastructure solutions, artificial lift, completions, and surface production systems.
Production Systems pretax operating margin of 16% expanded 136 bps year on year driven primarily by a favorable activity mix and execution efficiency.

(1)
“Net debt” represents gross debt less cash and short-term investments. Management believes that Net debt provides useful information to investors and management regarding the level of SLB’s indebtedness by reflecting cash and investments that could be used to repay debt. Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, total debt.
(2)
Includes depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets, exploration data costs, and APS investments.
(3)
“Free cash flow” represents cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, APS investments and exploration data costs capitalized. Management believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of our ability to generate cash. Once business needs and obligations are met, this cash can be used to reinvest in the company for future growth or to return to shareholders through dividend payments or share repurchases. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, cash flow from operations.
Key liquidity events during the first six months of 2025 and 2024 included:
•
Capital investments (consisting of capital expenditures, APS investments and exploration data capitalized) were $1.1 billion during the first six months of 2025 compared to $1.2 billion during the first six months of 2024. Capital investments for the full year 2025 are expected to be approximately $2.4 billion, including the impact of the ChampionX acquisition.
•
In January 2025, SLB announced a 3.6% increase to its quarterly cash dividend from $0.275 per share of outstanding common stock to $0.285 per share, beginning with the dividend payable in April 2025. Dividends paid during the first six months of 2025 and 2024 were $773 million and $751 million, respectively.
•
SLB entered into accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") agreements to repurchase $2.3 billion of its common stock commencing on January 13, 2025, and ending no later than May 31, 2025. The ASR was completed on April 7, 2025, and SLB received 56.8 million shares of its common stock, of which 47.6 million were received in January 2025 and the remaining 9.2 million shares were received in April 2025. These shares were repurchased by SLB at an average price of $40.51, representing the volume-weighted average price of SLB's common stock during this period less a discount.
•
During the first six months of 2024, SLB repurchased 15.3 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $48.01 per share for a total purchase price of $735 million.
•
During the second quarter of 2025, SLB completed the sale of its interest in the Palliser APS project in Canada in exchange for net cash proceeds of $338 million, of which $22 million were received in the third quarter of 2025. SLB recorded revenue of
23
approximately $0.2 billion relating to this project during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and approximately $0.5 billion during 2024.
•
During the second quarter of 2024, SLB issued $500 million of 5.00% Senior Notes due 2027, $500 million of 5.00% Senior Notes due 2029, and $500 million of 5.00% Senior Notes due 2034.
As of June 30, 2025, SLB had $3.7 billion of cash and short-term investments on hand and committed debt facility agreements with commercial banks aggregating $5.0 billion, all of which was available. SLB believes these amounts are sufficient to meet future business requirements for at least the next 12 months and beyond.
SLB has a global footprint in more than 100 countries. As of June 30, 2025, only two of those countries individually accounted for greater than 5% of SLB’s net receivable balance. Only one of these countries, the United States, represented greater than 10% of such receivables. As of June 30, 2025, Mexico represented 9% of SLB's net accounts receivable balance see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. While SLB has recently experienced delays in payment from its primary customer in Mexico, these receivables are not in dispute and SLB has not historically had any material write-offs due to uncollectible accounts receivable relating to this customer.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This second-quarter 2025 Form 10-Q, as well as other statements we make, contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which include any statements that are not historical facts.

If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize (or the consequences of any such development changes), or should our underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results or outcomes may vary materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking and other statements in this Form 10-Q regarding our environmental, social, and other sustainability plans and goals are not an indication that these statements are necessarily material to investors or required to be disclosed in our filings with the SEC. In addition, historical, current, and forward-looking environmental, social, and sustainability-related statements may be based on standards for measuring progress that are still developing, internal controls and processes that continue to evolve, and assumptions that are subject to change in the future. Statements in this Form 10-Q are made as of July 24, 2025, and SLB disclaims any intention or obligation to update publicly or revise such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting SLB, see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” of the SLB Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. SLB’s exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2024.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
SLB has carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of SLB’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of SLB’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the
24
period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, SLB’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that SLB files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. SLB’s disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to its management, including the CEO and the CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There was no change in SLB’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, SLB’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Our mining operations are subject to regulation by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. Information concerning mine safety violations or other regulatory matters required by section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 104 of Regulation S-K is included in Exhibit 95 to this report.
Item 5. Other Information.
In 2013, SLB completed the wind down of its service operations in Iran. Prior to this, certain non-US subsidiaries provided oilfield services to the National Iranian Oil Company and certain of its affiliates (“NIOC”).
SLB’s residual transactions or dealings with the government of Iran during the second quarter of 2025 consisted of payments of taxes and other typical governmental charges. Certain non-US subsidiaries of SLB maintain depository accounts at the Dubai branch of Bank Saderat Iran (“Saderat”), and at Bank Tejarat (“Tejarat”) in Tehran and in Kish for the deposit by NIOC of amounts owed to non-US subsidiaries of SLB for prior services rendered in Iran and for the maintenance of such amounts previously received. One non-US
26
subsidiary also maintained an account at Tejarat for payment of local expenses such as taxes. SLB anticipates that it will discontinue dealings with Saderat and Tejarat following the receipt of all amounts owed to SLB for prior services rendered in Iran.
