Baker Hughes Co Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2025
Oct 24, 2025Baker Hughes Company reported total revenue of $7.0 billion for the third quarter of 2025, a slight increase of 1% compared to the same period in the prior year. This growth was primarily driven by a 15% increase in the Industrial & Energy Technology (IET) segment, which benefited from strong performance in Gas Technology Equipment and Services. However, the Oilfield Services & Equipment (OFSE) segment experienced an 8% decline in revenue, impacted by lower international activity and rig counts. Net income attributable to Baker Hughes Company for the quarter was $609 million, a decrease of 20% year-over-year, attributed to factors such as a decline in the market-to-market adjustment of equity securities, reduced volumes in OFSE, and transaction costs related to acquisitions and divestitures, partially offset by cost-saving initiatives. The company is progressing with its significant acquisition of Chart Industries, Inc., expected to close mid-2026, and has completed the acquisition of Continental Disc Corporation. Portfolio management actions, including the expected sale of the Precision Sensors & Instrumentation business and the formation of a Surface Pressure Control joint venture, are also moving forward. Despite a challenging oil market outlook due to geopolitical tensions and potential oversupply, Baker Hughes remains optimistic about the natural gas outlook and is focused on leveraging its diversified portfolio to deliver integrated, lower-emission solutions across the energy value chain.
Baker Hughes Co Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2025
Jul 23, 2025Baker Hughes Company reported its second quarter 2025 results, showing a slight year-over-year revenue decrease to $6.9 billion, primarily due to softer activity in the Oilfield Services & Equipment (OFSE) segment, which saw a $0.4 billion decline. This was partially offset by a $0.2 billion revenue increase in the Industrial & Energy Technology (IET) segment, driven by growth in Gas Technology and Climate Technology solutions. Despite the revenue dip, net income attributable to Baker Hughes Company saw a healthy increase of 21% to $701 million ($0.71 per diluted share), compared to $579 million ($0.58 per diluted share) in the prior year's second quarter. This improved profitability was attributed to higher EBITDA margins across both segments, gains from the fair value of equity securities, and favorable foreign exchange, despite lower volumes in OFSE. The company also continues to return capital to shareholders, with a total of $423 million distributed through dividends and share repurchases in the quarter.

Apr 23, 2025Baker Hughes Company reported total revenue of $6.43 billion for the first quarter of 2025, a slight increase of $9 million compared to the same period last year. Net income, however, saw a decline of $53 million to $402 million, largely due to a $140 million loss from the change in fair value of equity securities in Q1 2025 compared to a gain in Q1 2024. The Oilfield Services & Equipment (OFSE) segment experienced a revenue decrease of $285 million, primarily driven by lower international and domestic rig counts. Conversely, the Industrial & Energy Technology (IET) segment showed robust growth, with revenue increasing by $294 million, boosted by strong performance in Gas Technology Equipment and Climate Technology Solutions. Despite the year-over-year dip in net income, the company's financial health remains solid. Baker Hughes maintained a strong liquidity position with $3.3 billion in cash and cash equivalents and an undrawn $3.0 billion revolving credit facility. The company also demonstrated commitment to shareholder returns by increasing its quarterly dividend to $0.23 per share and returning a total of $417 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases in the quarter.

The company also achieved a notable shift to profitability, with income before income taxes of $614 million, a substantial improvement from a loss of $655 million in the same period last year.

Looking ahead, Baker Hughes maintains a constructive outlook, anticipating continued strength in international and offshore oilfield activity to counterbalance softness in North America. The company sees the current spending cycle as more durable than in the past due to industry discipline. Furthermore, optimism remains for the LNG market, with expectations of a multi-decade growth opportunity as natural gas plays a crucial role in the energy transition.

The IET segment also saw revenue growth of 18%, though its operating income remained flat year-over-year due to inflationary pressures and higher R&D costs.

This revenue growth was primarily driven by increased activity in the Oilfield Services (OFS) and Digital Solutions (DS) segments. However, operating income saw a notable decrease to $269 million from $378 million in the prior year's quarter. This decline was significantly influenced by higher restructuring, impairment, and other charges, totaling $230 million in Q3 2022, compared to only $14 million in Q3 2021. The company also recorded a substantial loss of $426 million related to its Oilfield Services business in Russia, which was classified as held for sale.

Baker Hughes Co Quarterly Report for Q2 Ended Jun 30, 2022
Jul 21, 2022Baker Hughes Company reported mixed financial results for the second quarter of 2022. While total revenue saw a slight decline compared to the prior year, driven by lower volumes in the Turbomachinery & Process Solutions (TPS) and Oilfield Equipment (OFE) segments, the Oilfield Services (OFS) segment demonstrated robust growth. This growth was largely attributed to increased activity in North America and international markets, reflecting a positive trend in the global rig count. The company incurred a significant net loss for the quarter, heavily influenced by substantial restructuring, impairment, and other charges, particularly related to the suspension of operations in Russia and the classification of its OFS Russia business as held for sale. These charges, along with other non-operating losses such as those from equity investments, led to a substantial loss before income taxes. Despite the quarterly loss, Baker Hughes maintains a positive outlook for certain energy markets, especially natural gas and LNG, anticipating continued investment. The company highlights its strong order intake and substantial remaining performance obligations, which provide revenue visibility. However, the broader economic environment, characterized by inflation and rising interest rates, introduces uncertainty. Baker Hughes is focusing on executing its long-term strategy, including opportunistic investments and returning cash to shareholders, while navigating the volatile macro backdrop and ongoing geopolitical events that impact its operations, particularly in Russia.

The company also highlighted strategic investments and acquisitions aimed at positioning for the energy transition, including partnerships in low-carbon power generation and eFuels, as well as the acquisition of Mosaic Materials for CO2 separation technology.

This downturn was largely driven by a substantial goodwill impairment charge of $14.77 billion recorded in the first quarter of 2020, alongside ongoing impacts from the challenging oil and gas market environment influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic and price volatility. Despite the net loss, the company's revenue for the third quarter of 2020 was $5.05 billion, a decrease from $5.88 billion in the prior year's third quarter, primarily due to lower volumes in the Oilfield Services (OFS) and Digital Solutions (DS) segments.
