Oceaneering Reports First Quarter 2026 Results

As compared to the first quarter of 2025:

• SSR revenue increased to $214 million; however, operating income decreased 7% to $55.5 million and EBITDA margin declined to 32%. This was primarily attributable to a decline in ROV fleet utilization from 67% to 61%. Results were also impacted by geographic mix and costs associated with development of the Freedom™ vehicle for the DIU and deployment of the Ocean Intervention II. ROV revenue per day utilized increased to $12,401, reflecting a mix of improved pricing and discrete first-quarter items.
• Manufactured Products operating income increased to $26.1 million and margin expanded to 18% on a 6% increase in revenue. These improvements were driven by continued execution of higher-margin backlog and strong performance in Rotator valves. As of March 31, 2026, backlog was $492 million, with the decrease due to the timing of awards. The book-to-bill ratio was 0.91 for the 12-month period ending on March 31, 2026.
• As anticipated, Offshore Projects Group (OPG) operating income of $18.3 million was lower and margin declined to 14% on an 18% decrease in revenue. The year-over-year decline primarily reflects the comparison to an unusually strong first quarter of 2025, with the first quarter of 2026 reflecting more typical seasonality in the U.S. Gulf and decreased international activity.
• IMDS revenue decreased by 5% and operating income decreased by $4.5 million on lower volume in West Africa and Australia. Activity in the Middle East, which was expected to grow, was flat in the first quarter due to the recent conflict.
• ADTech revenue increased 35% to $131 million, driven by higher activity tied to the large contract awarded in 2025 and increased submarine repair and maintenance activity. Operating income decreased 24% to $8.1 million and margin declined to 6% due to an accrual associated with the aforementioned resolution of a contract dispute.
• At the corporate level, Unallocated Expenses increased 10% to $49.3 million, consistent with expectations.
• No shares were repurchased during the quarter.

Second Quarter 2026 Guidance

As compared to the second quarter of 2025:

Consolidated second quarter 2026 revenue is projected to increase and EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $100 million to $110 million.

At the segment level, for the second quarter of 2026:

• SSR revenue is expected to increase while operating income is expected to be flat.
• Manufactured Products revenue and operating income are forecasted to increase.
• OPG revenue is expected to be relatively flat and operating income is expected to decrease slightly on changes in project mix.
• IMDS revenue and operating income are projected to decrease due to lower volumes in West Africa and Australia and uncertainty in Middle East volumes.
• ADTech is expected to generate increased operating income on significantly higher revenue.
• Unallocated Expenses are expected to be in the $50 million range.

RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP TO GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In addition to financial results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this press release also includes non-GAAP financial measures (as defined under certain rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission). We have included adjusted net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per Share (EPS), each of which excludes the effects of certain specified items, as set forth in the tables that follow. As a result, these amounts are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these are useful measures for investors to review because they provide consistent measures of the underlying results of our ongoing business. Furthermore, our management uses these measures as measures of the performance of our operations. We have also included disclosures of Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA), EBITDA Margins, fourth quarter of 2025 consolidated adjusted EBITDA, consolidated adjusted EBITDA margins, and free cash flow, second quarter of 2026 consolidated EBITDA estimate, and full year2026 consolidated EBITDA and free cash flow estimates, as well as the following by segment: EBITDA, EBITDA margins, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margins. We define EBITDA margin as EBITDA divided by revenue. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margins and related information by segment exclude the effects of certain specified items, as set forth in the tables that follow. Due to the forward-looking nature of EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026, and for the full year of 2026, we cannot reliably predict certain of the necessary line items for the reconciliations to net income and, accordingly, have excluded such line items in the reconciliation. EBITDA and EBITDA margins, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margins, and related information by segment are each non-GAAP financial measures. We define free cash flow as cash flow provided by operating activities less organic capital expenditures (i.e., purchases of property and equipment other than those in business acquisitions). We have included these disclosures in this press release because EBITDA, EBITDA margins, and free cash flow are widely used by investors for valuation purposes and for comparing our financial performance with the performance of other companies in our industry, and the adjusted amounts thereof provide more consistent measures than the unadjusted amounts. Furthermore, our management uses these measures for purposes of evaluating our financial performance. Our presentation of EBITDA, EBITDA margins, and free cash flow (and the adjusted amounts thereof) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures that other companies report. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to and not as substitutes for our reported operating results, cash flows, or any other measure prepared and reported in accordance with GAAP. The tables that follow provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures used in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
