Total Revenue

-0.3% " " " "

Total revenue in Q2 2025 was $130.2 million compared to $130.6 million in Q2 2024, showing only a slight decrease. This stability suggests that previously observed challenges—such as seasonal slowdowns, geopolitical tensions, and sanctions-induced disruptions in Q1 2025—were partly offset by operational efficiencies and increased demand in targeted service areas. " " " "

Reservoir Description

0% " " " "

The Reservoir Description segment generated $86.3 million in Q2 2025, matching Q2 2024 levels. This steadiness indicates a recovery from previous declines seen in Q1 2025, likely as a result of mitigating earlier geopolitical and sanction impacts through realigned pricing and cost structures. " " " "

Production Enhancement

-0.9% " " " "

Production Enhancement revenue declined modestly from $44.3 million in Q2 2024 to $43.9 million in Q2 2025. Despite prior headwinds from sanctions and market volatility noted in Q1 2025, operational efficiencies and robust demand for high-margin diagnostic services in the U.S. helped cushion the decline.

International Expansion

Mentioned in Q1 2025, Q4 2024, and Q3 2024 with focus on diversified geographic markets (Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific, Latin America), and strategic market diversification including both mature and emerging regions " " "

Detailed emphasis in Q2 2025 on projects in Colombia (EOR, CCS), Canada (HERO PerFract), geothermal projects in North America, and a long-cycle global outlook " " "

Consistent focus with enhanced diversification and strategic expansion; international engagements remain central with increased emphasis on technical projects and longer-term opportunities.

Margin Recovery

Discussed in Q1 2025, Q4 2024, and Q3 2024 with mixed messages—some segments faced compression due to sanctions and cost structure issues while others saw sequential improvements " " "

In Q2 2025, both Reservoir Description and Production Enhancement segments show sequential margin improvements (e.g. from 10% to 13% for Reservoir Description) and better cost management " " "

Positive sequential improvement; margin recovery is trending upward despite earlier compression pressures, indicating effective cost management and operational leverage.

Advanced Diagnostic Technology

Highlighted in Q1 2025, Q4 2024, and Q3 2024 with increased demand for high‐margin diagnostic services and the use of tools like SPECTRASTIM, PACKSCAN, dual‐energy CT, and completion diagnostics for complex well completions " " "

Q2 2025 continues the trend with advancements such as the HERO PerFract perforating system and Thermal Profiler Tracers for geothermal applications " "

Continued innovation and integration, demonstrating an ongoing commitment to technology leadership and service innovation with a positive operational outlook.

Geopolitical Risks

Extensively discussed in Q1 2025, Q4 2024, and Q3 2024 with concerns over conflicts (Russia-Ukraine, Middle East) impacting assay services and revenue, and prompting cost adjustments " " "

Q2 2025 acknowledges ongoing geopolitical conflicts and expanded sanctions affecting laboratory services, although some demand rebounded as trading patterns normalized " "

Persistent concern but with signs of recovery; while geopolitical risks remain disruptive, there is a cautious improvement in operational performance as firms adapt to external pressures.

Emerging Technologies

Mentioned variably—with minimal detail in Q1 2025; Q4 2024 discussed plug & abandonment and advanced formation damage testing; Q3 2024 presented extensive details on CCS, pulverizer technology for P&A, and formation damage studies " " " "

Q2 2025 robustly outlines initiatives in carbon capture (in Colombia using proprietary PVT tech), expanded plug & abandonment offerings, and advanced formation damage testing in the Middle East " " "

Increased emphasis and deeper integration; emerging technology initiatives are now more prominent, reflecting strategic investments in operational innovation and longer‐term competitive differentiation.

Declining U.S. Market Activity

Addressed in Q1 2025, Q4 2024, and Q3 2024 with references to soft U.S. land activity, declining product sales, and issues of market overcapacity particularly in perforating operations " " "

Q2 2025 does not specifically mention declining U.S. market activity, implying a reduced focus as the company shifts attention to international and offshore opportunities "

Diminished emphasis; the reduced discussion in Q2 2025 suggests a strategic pivot away from domestic challenges as international markets gain traction.

Financial Discipline and Debt Reduction

Consistently discussed in Q1 2025, Q4 2024, and Q3 2024 with progress in reducing net debt, lowering leverage ratios, and committing free cash flow towards deleveraging while maintaining a lean capital expenditure profile " " "

Q2 2025 reports further net debt reduction (by $9.1 million), the lowest leverage ratio in eight years, renewed credit agreements, and continued share repurchases alongside disciplined capital allocation " " "

Continued and accelerating improvement; financial discipline remains a key strategic priority with evolving initiatives driving an increasingly robust balance sheet and enhanced shareholder confidence.

Operational Execution Constraints

Noted in Q1 2025 (hurricane‐related delays in the Gulf), Q4 2024 (weather and geopolitical issues affecting offshore operations), and Q3 2024 (rig availability constraints limiting offshore project execution) " " "

Q2 2025 does not specifically mention operational constraints in offshore projects, with focus shifting to steady international activity and long-cycle projects "

Reduced emphasis; the lack of mention in Q2 2025 could indicate that previous operational constraints are either being resolved or are less material relative to strategic priorities in international markets.
