Baker Hughes Co Financial Overview 2021–2025
Updated Jul 10, 2026Baker Hughes amassed a $14.8 billion cash stockpile by Q1 2026 to fund its pivot toward new energy frontiers. The company is rapidly shedding its legacy oilfield identity to become an industrial technology powerhouse, leveraging strategic dealmaking to capitalize on the global liquefied natural gas and climate transition boom.
This operational shift is clearly reflected in the top line, as total revenue grew from $20.5 billion in FY2021 to $27.7 billion in FY2025. While the traditional Oilfield Services & Equipment segment faced recent headwinds—with revenue declining 8% in FY2025—the Industrial & Energy Technology segment delivered 10% revenue growth over the same period. This pivot has secured long-term visibility, driving remaining performance obligations to $35.9 billion by the end of FY2025. Momentum accelerated into Q1 2026, when net income surged 120% year-over-year to $930 million following the strategic divestiture of its Surface Pressure Control business.
Investors have digested this structural transformation, valuing the stock at $45.54 per share at the close of FY2025 as the company prepares to finalize its pending $14.9 billion acquisition of Chart Industries in 2026.
Recent Developments (Q4 2025 and Q1 2026)
Baker Hughes advanced its corporate transformation by issuing €3.0 billion and $6.5 billion in notes to fund the pending Chart Industries merger, now targeting a July 2026 close amid European clearance discussions. Total top-line performance rose 2% year-over-year to $6.6 billion in Q1 2026. This expansion was driven by the Industrial & Energy Technology division, which jumped 14% to $3.35 billion, eclipsing the Oilfield Services & Equipment division's 7% drop to $3.24 billion. The company also returned $228 million to shareholders via dividends during the quarter, following $1.3 billion in capital returns throughout FY2025.
Bulls argue the expanding profitability—highlighted by a 21% increase in segment EBITDA to $2.5 billion in FY2025—justifies the stock trading at 23.1x earnings as of April 24, 2026. Bears caution that persistent Middle East disruptions could prolong the deterioration of traditional oilfield revenues.
What to watch: final European clearance for the Chart Industries merger; recovery trajectories in global upstream spending outside the Middle East.
