RPC

RPC reported revenue of USD 454.8 million for Q1 2026, beating analyst expectations, while the stock fell in premarket trading. Despite a small net profit, the adjusted EBITDA margin declined to 11.8% as ongoing competition in Pressure‑Pumping increased margin pressure. Management is pursuing a strategic realignment and has materially reduced the share of capital‑intensive Pressure‑Pumping revenue through acquisitions (including Pintail Wireline, Spinnaker‑Zementierung). RPC emphasizes conservative capital management, a strong balance sheet (USD 201 million cash, low debt) and plans further targeted M&A and technology investments, but remains cautious on the outlook given volatile commodity prices. » Mere på de.investing.com
