RPC, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial ResultsMay 7, 2026 6:45 AM
PR Newswire (US) ATLANTA, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- RPC, Inc. (NYSE: RES) ("RPC" or the "Company"), a leading diversified oilfield services company, announced its unaudited results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.Non-GAAP and adjusted measures may include, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, adjusted earnings per share (diluted), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and free cash flow which are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the appendices of this earnings release.Sequential comparisons are to 4Q:25. The Company believes quarterly sequential comparisons are most useful in assessing industry trends and RPC's recent financial results. Both sequential and year-over-year comparisons are available in the tables at the end of this earnings release.First Quarter 2026 HighlightsRevenues increased 7% sequentially to $454.8 millionNet income was $0.9 million, compared to net loss of $3.1 million in the prior quarter, and diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) was $0.00; Net income margin increased 90 basis points sequentially to 0.2%Adjusted net income was $7.6 million, compared to $9.4 million in the prior quarter, and adjusted diluted EPS was $0.03; Adjusted net income margin was 1.7%. See Appendices B and C for additional detailsAdjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) was $53.5 million, compared to $55.1 million in the prior quarter; Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 110 basis points sequentially to 11.8%. See Appendix C for additional detailsManagement Commentary"During the first quarter we experienced modest revenue increases despite weather impacts to start the year. Our Technical Services segment revenues increased 7% sequentially. Within Technical Services, Cudd Energy Services' pressure pumping saw the largest percentage increase at 20% followed by Cudd Pressure Control's nitrogen service line which increased 13%. Thru Tubing Solutions' downhole tools increased 11% driven by higher activity supported by new technologies. Our Support Services segment revenues were flat sequentially, as the first quarter typically sees the biggest weather impact," stated Ben M. Palmer, RPC's President and Chief Executive Officer."The year started off with winter storms disrupting activity across multiple basins which was followed by significant geopolitical events that meaningfully increased oil prices. We are seeing signs of optimism including increased bidding activity, as well as a number of operators electing to maintain activity, rather than following through with previously announced reduction plans. However, industry concerns about the duration of higher commodity prices and price volatility are currently limiting any significant reevaluation of spending plans. As we look ahead, we will be measured in our approach focusing on returns on capital and strategically investing where prudent."Selected Industry Data (Source: Baker Hughes, Inc., U.S. Energy Information Administration)

Within the Technical Services segment, we saw revenues increase 7% sequentially with pumping, nitrogen, and downhole tools seeing double digit percentage increases. Within the Support Services segment revenues were essentially flat.Cost of revenues, which excludes depreciation and amortization of $37.1 million, was $355.6 million, up from $336.6 million. Cost of revenues was most impacted by costs that typically vary with activity and job mix, specifically materials & supplies and fuel sourced for customers.Selling, general and administrative expenses were $48.2 million, slightly up from $47.7 million.Acquisition related employment costs were approximately $7.3 million during 1Q:26 and 4Q:25, and represent non-cash accounting adjustments related to the Pintail acquisition costs that are contingent upon continued employment.Depreciation and amortization was $42.9 million during 1Q:26, and 4Q:25 was $39.1 million. The fourth quarter reflected a $2.8 million reduction in depreciation and amortization due to the change in wireline cable accounting. See Appendix C for additional details.Interest income totaled $1.8 million, approximating the prior quarter.Interest expense totaled $830 thousand, approximating the prior quarter.Income tax provision was $3.5 million, primarily due to the disproportionate impact of permanent non-deductible items, mainly acquisition related employment costs, on a relatively low pretax income.Net earnings and Earnings per share totaled $0.9 million and $0.00 respectively, versus net loss of $3.1 million and diluted loss per share of $0.02, respectively, in 4Q:25. Net income margin increased 90 basis points sequentially to 0.2%.Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS were $7.6 million and $0.03, respectively, versus $9.4 million and $0.04, respectively, in 4Q:25. Adjusted net income margin decreased to 1.7% from 2.2% in 4Q:25.Adjusted EBITDA was $53.5 million, down from $55.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 110 basis points sequentially to 11.8%. See Appendix C for additional details. Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital AllocationCash and cash equivalents decreased slightly to $200.7 million at the end of the first quarter compared to the end of 2025, with no outstanding borrowings under the Company's $100 million revolving credit facility.Net cash provided by operating activities and Free cash flow were $31.2 million and ($0.9) million, respectively, year-to-date through 1Q:26. Working capital was a significant use of cash during the quarter primarily due to higher accounts receivable resulting from revenue increases.Payment of dividends totaled $8.9 million year-to-date. As previously announced, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share, payable on June 10, 2026, to common stockholders of record at the close of business on May 11, 2026.Share repurchases totaled $3.5 million year-to-date, all of which related to tax withholding for restricted stock vesting.Segment Operations (sequential comparisons versus the previous quarter)Technical Services performs value-added completion, production and maintenance services directly to a customer's well. These services include pressure pumping, downhole tools, wireline, coiled tubing, cementing, and other offerings.Revenues were $434.3 million, up 7%Operating income was $16.0 million, up $7.5 million or 89%.

$16,535(1) Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, wireline cables, previously capitalized and depreciated over 18 months, began being expensed due to a change in their estimated useful lives. Wireline cable adjustments in 2025 totaled approximately $13.8 million: $4.7 million in second quarter, $4.5 million in the third quarter, and $4.6 million in the fourth quarter. Wireline cable purchase expenses are partially offset by a decrease in depreciation of $1.9 million in the second quarter, $2.5 million in the third quarter and $1.0 million in the fourth quarter. The net 2025 operating income impact was additional expense of $8.3 million comprised of $2.8 million in the second quarter, $2.0 million in the third quarter and $3.5 million in the fourth quarter.Conference Call InformationRPC, Inc. will hold a conference call today, May 7, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. ET to discuss the results for the quarter.

RPC's investor website can be found at www.rpc.net.Forward Looking StatementsCertain statements and information included in this press release constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include statements that look forward in time or express management's beliefs, expectations or hopes. In particular, such statements include, without limitation: that the Company is seeing signs of optimism, including increased bidding activity, as well as a number of operators electing to maintain activity, rather than previously announced reduction plans; that industry concerns about the duration of higher commodity prices and price volatility are currently limiting any significant reevaluation of spending plans; and the Company's expectation for future periods that it will follow a measured approach focusing on returns on capital and strategically investing in a prudent manner. Risk factors that could cause such future events not to occur as expected include the following: the price of oil and natural gas and overall performance of the U.S. economy, both of which can impact capital spending by our customers and demand for our services; the impact of tariffs, which may increase our cost of materials and impact our profitability, business interruptions due to adverse weather conditions; changes in the competitive environment of our industry, including the potential impact of the recent U.S. actions in Iran and Venezuela, including without limitation the impacts of the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz; political instability in the petroleum-producing regions of the world; the actions of the OPEC oil cartel; our customers' drilling and production activities; and our ability to identify, complete and successfully integrate acquisitions and/or other strategic investments or transactions. Additional factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from management's projections, forecasts, estimates, and expectations are contained in RPC's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.For information about RPC, Inc., please contact:Joshua Large,

$326,724Non-GAAP MeasuresRPC, Inc. has used the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow in today's earnings release. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance or liquidity measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that presenting these non-GAAP measures, other than free cash flow, enables investors to compare the operating performance of our core business consistently over various time periods, without regard to acquisition related employment costs and changes in our accounting for purchases of wireline cables, and in the case of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, without regard to changes in our capital structure. Management believes that free cash flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating RPC's liquidity. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, RPC's definition of free cash flow is limited, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, management believes it is important to view free cash flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that either 1) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows, or 2) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.Set forth in the appendices below are reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures with their most directly comparable GAAP measures. These reconciliations also appear on RPC, Inc.'s investor website, which can be found at www.rpc.net.Appendix A

(NYSE: RES) ("RPC" or the "Company"), a leading diversified oilfield services company, announced its unaudited results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.Non-GAAP and adjusted measures may include adjusted revenues, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, adjusted earnings per share (diluted), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and free cash flow which are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the appendices of this earnings release.Sequential comparisons are to 3Q:25.

Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by approximately $4.6 million in wireline cable expenses incurred during the quarter. Previously, wireline cables were capitalized. See Appendix C for additional detailsFull Year 2025 HighlightsRevenues increased 15% compared to the prior year to $1.6 billion primarily due to the Pintail Completions acquisition which closed April 1, 2025Net income was $32.1 million, down 65% compared to the prior year, and EPS was $0.15; Net income margin decreased 450 basis points compared to the prior year to 2.0%Adjusted net income was $53.6 million, down 41% compared to the prior year, and adjusted diluted EPS was $0.25; Adjusted net income margin was 3.3%Adjusted EBITDA was $232.7 million, essentially unchanged from the prior year; Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 220 basis points sequentially to 14.3%Net cash from operating activities was $201.3 million; free cash flow was $52.9 million unaffected by the transition to expensing wireline cablesThe Company paid $35.1 million in dividends, and repurchased $2.9 million of common stock in 2025Management Commentary"During the fourth quarter we experienced modest revenue declines primarily due to the holiday slowdowns. Our Technical Services segment revenues declined 4% sequentially. Within Technical Services, Thru Tubing Solutions' downhole tools declined 9% driven by softer activity in the Rocky Mountain and International districts. Cudd Energy Services' pumping and Pintail Completions' wireline declined 6% and 3%, respectively, partially offset by Cudd Pressure Control's snubbing revenues, which grew by 13%. Our Support Services segment revenues declined 18% sequentially, primarily due to Patterson Services' rental tools declining 22% during the quarter as several jobs shifted into early 2026," stated Ben M. Palmer, RPC's President and Chief Executive Officer. "As we enter 2026, we are focused on disciplined execution, leveraging our strong brands and diversified offerings.""We experienced a solid start to the fourth quarter but encountered a weak December as a number of our customers reduced activity, particularly late in the month. The macro environment remains challenging, with crude oil prices showing increased volatility due to recent geopolitical developments. As we look ahead, our focus remains on delivering full cycle returns by maintaining cost discipline, deploying capital strategically, and positioning the company for long-term success."Selected Industry Data (Source: Baker Hughes, Inc., U.S. Energy Information Administration)

51.9%4Q:25 Consolidated Financial Results (sequential comparisons to previous quarter)Revenues were $425.8 million, down 5%. Within the Technical Services segment, we saw revenues decrease 4% sequentially with snubbing and cementing showing sequential growth offset by declines in our other service lines. Within the Support Services segment we saw an 18% sequential decrease with rental tools showing a sequential decrease of 22%, slightly offset by increases in tubular services. Cost of revenues, which excludes depreciation and amortization of $33.8 million, was $336.6 million, up slightly from $334.7 million. Despite lower revenues, the cost of revenues increased during the quarter due to expensing year-to-date wireline cable purchases of approximately $12 million that were previously being capitalized, and increases in other materials and supplies expenses related to job mix.Selling, general and administrative expenses were $47.7 million, up from $44.6 million, primarily related to employment incentives and higher other employment related costs.Acquisition related employment costs were approximately $7.3 million during 4Q:25 and represent non-cash accounting adjustments related to the Pintail acquisition costs that are contingent upon continued employment.Interest income totaled $1.7 million, approximating the prior quarter.Interest expense totaled $942 thousand, approximating the prior quarter.Income tax provision was $3.2 million, with an unusually high effective tax rate primarily due to the liquidation of company-owned life insurance policies that were part of the previously announced dissolution of the company's non-qualified supplemental retirement plan, coupled with the non-deductible portion of Acquisition related employment costs.Net loss and Loss per share were a loss of $3.1 million and $0.02 respectively, versus net income of $13.0 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.06, respectively, in 3Q:25. Net income margin decreased 360 basis points sequentially to (0.7)%.Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS were $9.4 million and $0.04, respectively, versus $16.8 million and $0.08, respectively, in 3Q:25. Adjusted net income margin decreased to 2.2% from 3.8% in 3Q:25Adjusted EBITDA was $55.1 million, down from $67.8 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 230 basis points sequentially to 12.9%. Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by approximately $4.6 million in wireline cable expenses incurred during the quarter. Previously, wireline cables were capitalized. See Appendix C for additional details. Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital AllocationCash and cash equivalents increased to $210.0 million at the end of the fourth quarter, with no outstanding borrowings under the Company's $100 million revolving credit facility.Net cash provided by operating activities and Free cash flow were $201.3 million and $52.9 million, respectively, year-to-date through 4Q:25.Payment of dividends totaled $35.1 million year-to-date through 4Q:25. As previously announced, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share, payable on March 10, 2026, to common stockholders of record at the close of business on February 10, 2026.Share repurchases totaled $2.9 million year-to-date through 4Q:25, all of which related to tax withholding for restricted stock vesting.Segment Operations (sequential comparisons versus the previous quarter)Technical Services performs value-added completion, production and maintenance services directly to a customer's well. These services include pressure pumping, downhole tools, wireline, coiled tubing, cementing, and other offerings.Revenues were $405.2 million, down 4%Operating income was $8.5 million, down 65%Operating income was negatively impacted by approximately $8 million due to the transition to expensing wireline cables during the quarter.

(1) Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, wireline cables, previously capitalized and depreciated over 18 months, are now being expensed due to a change in their estimated useful lives. Wireline cable adjustments year-to-date totaled approximately $13.8 million: $4.7 million in second quarter, $4.5 million in the third quarter, and $4.6 million in the fourth quarter. Wireline cable purchase expenses are offset by a decrease in depreciation of $1.9 million in the second quarter, $2.5 million in the third quarter and $1.0 million in the fourth quarter. The net year-to-date operating income impact was additional expense of $8.3 million comprised of $2.8 million in the second quarter, $2.0 million in the third quarter and $3.5 million in the third quarter.Conference Call InformationRPC, Inc. will hold a conference call today, February 3, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. ET to discuss the results for the quarter.

Such forward-looking statements include statements that look forward in time or express management's beliefs, expectations or hopes. In particular, such statements include, without limitation: our focus on disciplined execution, leveraging our strong brands and diversified offerings, our belief that the macro environment remains challenging, with crude oil prices showing increased volatility due to recent geopolitical developments, and our focus on delivering full cycle returns by maintaining cost discipline, deploying capital strategically, and positioning the company for long-term success.

$325,975Non-GAAP MeasuresRPC, Inc. has used the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted revenues, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income margin, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin and free cash flow in today's earnings release. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance or liquidity measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that presenting these non-GAAP measures, other than free cash flow, enables investors to compare the operating performance of our core business consistently over various time periods, and in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, without regard to changes in our capital structure or changes in our accounting for purchases of wireline cables. Management believes that free cash flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating RPC's liquidity. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, RPC's definition of free cash flow is limited, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, management believes it is important to view free cash flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that either 1) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows, or 2) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.Set forth in the appendices below are reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures with their most directly comparable GAAP measures. These reconciliations also appear on RPC, Inc.'s investor website, which can be found at www.rpc.net.Appendix A

Wireline cable adjustments year-to-date totaled approximately $13.8 million: $4.7 million in second quarter, $4.5 million in the third quarter, and $4.6 million in the fourth quarter.

The net year-to-date operating income impact was additional expense of $8.3 million comprised of $2.8 million in the second quarter, $2.0 million in the third quarter and $3.5 million in the third quarter. We have made an adjustment to add back the second and third quarter charges to the fourth quarter results in order to provide better comparability going forward. (2) Third quarter operating income would have been negatively impacted by $2.0 million had wireline cables been expensed during the period instead of capitalized. This adjustment has been made to the third quarter presentation to provide better comparability to the fourth quarter. Appendix B

(1) Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, wireline cables, previously capitalized and depreciated over 18 months, are now being expensed due to a change in their estimated useful lives. Wireline cable adjustments year-to-date totaled approximately $13.8 million: $4.7 million in second quarter, $4.5 million in the third quarter, and $4.6 million in the fourth quarter. Wireline cable purchase expenses are offset by a decrease in depreciation of $1.9 million in the second quarter, $2.5 million in the third quarter and $1.0 million in the fourth quarter. The net year-to-date operating income impact was additional expense of $8.3 million comprised of $2.8 million in the second quarter, $2.0 million in the third quarter and $3.5 million in the third quarter. We have made an adjustment to add back the second and third quarter charges to the fourth quarter results in order to provide better comparability going forward.(2) Includes participating securities that were excluded in the computation of loss per share since they were anti-dilutive.(3) Third quarter EPS would have been negatively impacted by ($0.01) had wireline cables been expensed during the period instead of capitalized. This adjustment has been made to the third quarter presentation to provide better comparability to the fourth quarter. Appendix C
