SCHLUMBERGER LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

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 March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025. The December 31, 2024 balance sheet information has been derived from the SLB 2024 audited financial statements. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the SLB Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 22, 2025.

 

ChampionX Transaction

On April 2, 2024, SLB announced a definitive agreement to purchase ChampionX Corporation ("ChampionX") in an all-stock transaction. ChampionX is a global leader in chemistry solutions, artificial lift systems, and highly engineered equipment and technologies that help companies drill for and produce oil and gas safely, efficiently, and sustainably around the world. Under the terms of the agreement, ChampionX shareholders will receive 0.735 shares of SLB common stock in exchange for each ChampionX share. At the closing of the transaction ChampionX shareholders will own approximately 9% of SLB's outstanding shares of common stock. ChampionX reported revenue of approximately $3.6 billion in 2024. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, received the approval of the ChampionX stockholders at a special meeting held on June 18, 2024. It is anticipated that the transaction will close in the second quarter or early third quarter of 2025.

2. Charges and Credits

2025

During the second quarter of 2024, SLB started a program to realign and optimize its support and service delivery structure in certain parts of its organization. As a result, SLB recorded severance charges of $158 million during the first quarter of 2025. These costs are classified in Restructuring in the Consolidated Statement of Income. SLB may record additional charges related to workforce reductions in 2025 as it aligns its resources with activity levels.

 

During the first quarter of 2025, in connection with the pending ChampionX transaction and the October 2023 acquisition of the Aker Solutions subsea business, SLB recorded $48 million of charges related to merger and integration-related costs. These costs are classified in Merger & integration in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

In connection with SLB's October 2023 acquisition of the Aker Solutions subsea business, SLB recorded $25 million of pretax charges during the first quarter of 2024 consisting of: $14 million relating to the amortization of purchase accounting adjustments associated with the write-up of acquired inventories to its estimated fair value and $11 million of other merger and integration-related costs. $14 million of these costs are classified in Cost of sales in the Consolidated Statement of Income, with the remaining $11 million classified in Merger & integration.

The estimated fair value of SLB’s Long-term Debt, based on quoted market prices at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was $10.0 billion and $10.4 billion, respectively.

 

At March 31, 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 March 31, 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 March 31, 2025, were $1.8 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.

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 March 31, 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.
During 2020, a Canadian dollar functional currency subsidiary of SLB issued $0.5 billion of US dollar denominated debt. SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the US dollar value of its $0.5 billion 1.40% Senior Notes due 2025. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the US dollar notes to Canadian dollar denominated debt with a fixed annual interest rate of 1.73%.

 

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 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 $5.0 billion and $5.5 billion in various foreign currencies as of March 31, 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 March 31, 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 $1.2 billion as of March 31, 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 $0.3 billion of the outstanding CDSs reduces on a monthly basis over its remaining 11-month term while the remaining $0.9 billion reduces on a monthly basis over its remaining 15-month term. The fair value of these derivative liabilities was not material at March 31, 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.

First-quarter 2025 revenue of $8.5 billion decreased 3% year on year as it was a subdued start to the year. North America revenue grew by 8% year on year to $1.7 billion, partially compensating for softer international revenue which declined 5% to $6.7 billion.

The year-on-year growth in North America revenue was primarily driven by higher digital sales and sales of production systems in US offshore, and strong growth in data center infrastructure solutions.

 

Internationally, Latin America led the year on year decline as revenue of $1.5 billion declined 10% year on year primarily due to a significant reduction in drilling activity in Mexico. Europe & Africa revenue of $2.2 billion decreased 4% due to reduced activity in offshore Africa and in Russia. Revenue in the Middle East & Asia of $3.0 billion declined 3% year on year largely due to reduced drilling and stimulation activity in Saudi Arabia as well as lower activity in Egypt, Australia and India. These declines were partially offset by higher revenue in the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.

The industry may experience a potential shift of priorities driven by changes in the global economy, fluctuating commodity prices and evolving tariffs — all of which could impact upstream oil and gas investment and, in turn, affect demand for our products and services. In this uncertain environment, SLB remains committed to protecting its margins, generating strong cash flow and delivering consistent value to its customers and shareholders in 2025.

Digital & Integration

Digital & Integration revenue of $1.0 billion increased 6% year on year driven by 17% growth in digital revenue, supported by greater adoption of digital technologies and higher sales of exploration data. This increase was partially offset by lower APS revenue due to a temporary pipeline disruption on an Asset Performance Solutions (“APS”) project in Ecuador.

Digital & Integration pretax operating margin of 30% expanded 380 basis points (“bps”) year on year, mostly due to improved profitability in digital, following higher uptake of digital technologies and higher sales of exploration data.

Reservoir Performance

Reservoir Performance revenue of $1.7 billion declined 1% year on year with strong unconventional stimulation and intervention activity offset by lower evaluation and exploration activity across the international markets.

Reservoir Performance pretax operating margin of 17% decreased 311 bps year on year due to reduced profitability from lower evaluation activity and project startup costs.

15


 

Well Construction

Well Construction revenue of $3.0 billion declined 12% year on year reflecting lower drilling activity in Mexico, Saudi Arabia, U.S. land, India and offshore West Africa.

Well Construction pretax operating margin of 20% declined 71 bps year on year driven by the reduced activity across North America and the international markets.

Production Systems

Production Systems revenue of $2.9 billion increased 4% year on year due to strong demand in North America for surface production systems, completions, artificial lift, and data center infrastructure solutions.

Production Systems pretax operating margin of 16% increased 197 bps year on year due to improved profitability across a number of business lines driven by activity mix, execution efficiency and conversion of improved-price backlog.

First-quarter 2025 revenue of $8.5 billion decreased 9% sequentially as revenue declined 10% in the international markets and 2% in North America primarily due to seasonal effects.

Revenue in North America declined 2% sequentially due to lower drilling activity both on land and offshore partially offset by higher revenue from data center infrastructure solutions.

Internationally, revenue decreased 11% on a sequential basis in the Middle East & Asia and 10% in Europe & Africa following strong year-end product and digital sales across these areas in the fourth quarter of 2024. Revenue in Latin America decreased 9% sequentially driven by lower drilling activity in Mexico. Reduced APS revenue in Ecuador and seasonally lower revenue in Brazil following strong year-end production systems sales last quarter also contributed to the revenue decline in Latin America.

Digital & Integration

Digital & Integration revenue of $1.0 billion declined 13% sequentially following seasonally strong year-end digital sales in the fourth quarter of 2024 while APS revenue was lower due to a temporary pipeline disruption on an APS project in Ecuador.

Digital & Integration pretax operating margin of 30% decreased 784 bps sequentially due to seasonally lower sales of digital and exploration data as well as lower APS revenue.

Reservoir Performance

Reservoir Performance revenue of $1.7 billion declined 6% sequentially primarily due to seasonal activity reductions in Europe & Africa and the Middle East & Asia.

Reservoir Performance pretax operating margin of 17% decreased 391 bps sequentially due to reduced profitability from lower evaluation activity and project startup costs.

Well Construction

Well Construction revenue of $3.0 billion decreased 9% sequentially due to seasonal activity reductions across all areas.

Well Construction pretax operating margin of 20% declined 106 bps sequentially driven by the reduced activity across North America and the international markets.

Production Systems

Production Systems revenue of $2.9 billion declined 8% sequentially driven by seasonally lower sales of artificial lift, midstream and surface production systems and completions.

Production Systems pretax operating margin of 16% increased by 34 bps sequentially primarily due to cost efficiencies despite seasonally lower sales.

The effective tax rate was 22% for the first quarter of 2025 as compared to 19% for the same period of 2024. The increase in the effective tax rate year on year was primarily due to the charges and credits described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The charges and credits increased the effective tax rate by three percentage points as a significant portion of these charges do not result in a tax benefit.

(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 three months of 2025 and 2024 included:

Capital investments (consisting of capital expenditures, APS investments and exploration data capitalized) were $0.6 billion during the first three months of 2025 compared to $0.5 million during the first three months of 2024. Capital investments for the full year 2025 are expected to be approximately $2.3 billion.
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 three months of 2025 and 2024 were $386 million and $357 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 quarter of 2024, SLB repurchased 5.4 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $50.13 per share for a total purchase price of $270 million.

 

As of March 31, 2025, SLB had $3.9 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 March 31, 2025, only three 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 March 31, 2025, Mexico represented 7% of SLB's net accounts receivable balance. (See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). SLB’s receivables from its primary customer in Mexico are not in dispute and SLB has not historically had any material write-offs due to uncollectible accounts receivable relating to this customer.

 

On October 17, 2024, SLB entered into a definitive agreement to sell its interest in the Palliser APS project in Canada. Under the terms of the agreement, SLB will receive cash proceeds of approximately $430 million, subject to closing adjustments that are typical for such a transaction. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the second quarter of 2025. SLB recorded revenue of approximately $0.1 billion during the first quarter of 2025 relating to this project.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This first-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.

These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, changing global economic and geopolitical conditions; changes in exploration and production spending by SLB’s customers, and changes in the level of oil and natural gas exploration and development; the results of operations and financial condition of SLB’s customers and suppliers; SLB’s inability to achieve its financial and performance targets and other forecasts and expectations; SLB’s inability to achieve net-zero carbon emissions goals or interim emissions reduction goals; general economic, geopolitical and business conditions in key regions of the world; the ongoing conflict in Ukraine; foreign currency risk; inflation; changes in monetary policy by governments; tariffs; pricing pressure; weather and seasonal factors; unfavorable effects of health pandemics; availability and cost of raw materials; operational modifications, delays or cancellations; challenges in SLB’s supply chain; production declines; the extent of future charges; SLB’s inability to recognize efficiencies and other intended benefits from its business strategies and initiatives, such as digital or new energy, as well as its cost reduction strategies; changes in government regulations and regulatory requirements, including those related to offshore oil and gas exploration, radioactive sources, explosives, chemicals, and climate-related initiatives; the inability of technology to meet new challenges in exploration; the competitiveness of alternative energy sources or product substitutes; and other risks and uncertainties detailed in this Form 10-Q and our most recent Form 10-K and Forms 8-K filed with or furnished to the SEC.

This Form 10-Q also includes forward-looking statements relating to the proposed transaction between SLB and ChampionX, including statements regarding the benefits of the transaction and the anticipated timing of the transaction. Factors and risks that may impact future results and performance include, but are not limited to, and in each case as a possible result of the proposed transaction on each of SLB and ChampionX: the ultimate outcome of the proposed transaction between SLB and ChampionX; the ability to operate the SLB and ChampionX respective businesses, including business disruptions; difficulties in retaining and hiring key personnel and employees; the ability to maintain favorable business relationships with customers, suppliers and other business partners; the terms and timing of the proposed transaction; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the proposed transaction; the anticipated or actual tax treatment of the proposed transaction; the ability to satisfy closing conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction; other risks related to the completion of the proposed transaction and actions related thereto; the ability of SLB and ChampionX to integrate the business successfully and to achieve anticipated synergies and value creation from the proposed transaction; the ability to secure government regulatory approvals on the terms expected, at all or in a timely manner; litigation and regulatory proceedings, including any proceedings that may be instituted against SLB or ChampionX related to the proposed transaction, as well as the risk factors discussed in SLB’s and ChampionX’s most recent Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K filed with or furnished to the SEC.

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 April 25, 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.

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 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 first 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 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.

On March 25, 2025, Olivier Le Peuch, CEO and a member of the SLB Board of Directors, adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement that is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) for the sale of up to 300,000 shares of SLB’s common stock between June 25, 2025 and May 27, 2026, for a duration of 336 days.
