“Seadrill’s second quarter performance reflects strong operational, commercial and financial execution, with momentum building across the business. We achieved 96% Economic utilization(4), meaningfully enhanced our contract coverage in the U.S. Gulf and increased our full-year revenue and EBITDA guidance,” said Samir Ali, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Demand for our high specification fleet continues to strengthen and contract coverage is improving as we enter a period where our strategic decisions are enabling us to capture the upside in the market.”
Financial and Operational Results
Second quarter 2026 Total operating revenues increased to $449 million, compared to $358 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by more operating days for the West Jupiter and West Capella and an improved average dayrate across the fleet, partially offset by fewer operating days for the West Tellus. Total operating expenses increased by $43 million to $377 million, compared to $334 million in the prior quarter, primarily reflecting higher operating activity for the West Jupiter and West Capella. Net income for the second quarter was $29 million, while Adjusted EBITDA increased to $144 million, compared to $97 million in the prior quarter.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
At quarter-end, Seadrill had gross principal debt of $750 million and $360 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, resulting in a net debt position of $390 million. Second quarter 2026 cash inflows from the refinancing and lump-sum mobilization revenue were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable, primarily related to the commencement of the West Jupiter and the West Capella contracts, and the timing of collections across the remainder of the fleet. Cash outflows included contract preparation costs for the West Tellus, ahead of the lump-sum mobilization revenue expected in the third quarter, as well as a $20 million accelerated interest expense payment relating to the redemption of our prior senior notes, a $16 million final payment for a legacy legal judgment relating to the Sonadrill joint venture, and share repurchases. Capital additions and long-term maintenance totaled $57 million.
Commercial Activity and Contract Backlog
- West Vela was awarded a one-year contract in the U.S. Gulf, commencing in June 2027 and adding approximately $161 million to Contract Backlog, excluding additional services.
- West Capella secured a contract extension in Malaysia. The additional term is for an estimated 75 days and adds approximately $26 million to Contract Backlog, excluding additional services, committing the rig into August 2027.
- Sevan Louisiana added approximately 45 days in direct continuation of its prior program, committing the rig in the U.S. Gulf into August 2026.
As of August 10, 2026, Seadrill’s Contract Backlog was approximately $2.9 billion. The Company has provided an updated fleet status report on the Investor Relations section of its website, www.seadrill.com.
Conference Call Information
The Company will host a conference call to discuss its results on Monday, August 10, 2026 at 08:00 CT / 15:00 CET. Interested participants may join the call by dialing +1 (833) 461-5787 (Conference ID: 296 907 442) at least 15 minutes prior to the scheduled start time. The Company will webcast the call live on the Investor Relations section of its website, where a replay will be available afterwards.
(1) Contract Backlog stated as of August 10, 2026, and includes all firm contracts at the contractual operating dayrate multiplied by the number of days remaining in the firm contract period. It includes management contract revenues and leasing revenues from bareboat charter arrangements and excludes revenues for mobilization, demobilization, contract preparation, and other incentive provisions and backlog relating to non-consolidated entities.
(2) These are non-GAAP measures. For a definition and a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure, see Appendices.
(3) Due to the forward-looking nature of Adjusted EBITDA, management cannot reliably predict certain of the necessary components of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure, net income. Accordingly, the Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort. The unavailable information could have a significant effect on the Company’s full year 2026 GAAP financial results, as well as the actual amount of Adjusted EBITDA we eventually report for the period.
(4) Economic utilization is defined as dayrate revenue earned during the period, excluding bonuses, divided by the contractual operating dayrate, multiplied by the number of days on contract in the period. If a drilling unit earns its full operating dayrate throughout a reporting period, its economic utilization would be 100%. However, there are many situations that give rise to a dayrate being earned that is less than the contractual operating rate, such as planned downtime for maintenance. In such situations, economic utilization reduces below 100%.

The foregoing risks and uncertainties are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and beyond our control. In many cases, we cannot predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.

All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or to any person(s) acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by reference to these risks and uncertainties. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement.

Investors should note that we announce material financial information in SEC filings, press releases and public conference calls. Based on guidance from the SEC, we may use the Investors section of our website (www.seadrill.com) to communicate with investors, and we intend to post presentations and fleet status reports there, among other things.

Appendix I – Reconciliation of Net income/(loss) to Adjusted EBITDA (Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA represents Net income/(loss) before depreciation and amortization, income tax expense, total financial and non-operating items, and similar non-cash charges. Additionally, in any given period, the Company may have significant, unusual or non-recurring items which may be excluded from Adjusted EBITDA for that period. When applicable, these items are fully disclosed and incorporated into the reconciliation provided below. Adjusted EBITDA Margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Total operating revenues. Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables, represents Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Reimbursable revenues and Reimbursable expenses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables represents Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables as a percentage of Total operating revenues excluding Reimbursable revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables and Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that the aforementioned non-GAAP financial measures assist investors by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of depreciation and amortization, income tax expense, total financial items and non-operating items, merger and integration related expenses, and other adjustments specified, which are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which may significantly affect Net income/(loss) between periods.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables and Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables should not be considered as alternatives to Net income/(loss) or any other indicator of Seadrill Limited’s performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Because the definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables and Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables (or similar measures) may vary among companies and industries, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The tables below reconcile Net income/(loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables and Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables.

(1) Excludes three drillships managed on behalf of Sonadrill (West Gemini, Sonangol Quenguela, Sonangol Libongos).
|
|
(2) The average number of rigs on contract is calculated by dividing the aggregate days the Company’s rigs were on contract during the reporting period by the number of days in that reporting period.
|
|
(3) The average contractual dayrate is calculated by dividing the aggregate contractual dayrates during a reporting period by the aggregate number of days for the reporting period.
|
|
(4) Economic utilization is defined as dayrate revenue earned during the period, excluding bonuses, divided by the contractual operating dayrate, multiplied by the number of days on contract in the period. If a drilling unit earns its full operating dayrate throughout a reporting period, its economic utilization would be 100%. However, there are many situations that give rise to a dayrate being earned that is less than the contractual operating rate, such as planned downtime for maintenance. In such situations, economic utilization reduces below 100%.

Appendix III – Reconciliation of Net cash used in operating activities to Free Cash Flow (Unaudited)
The Company also presents Free Cash Flow as a non-GAAP liquidity measure. Free Cash Flow is calculated as Net cash used in operating activities less Additions to drilling units and equipment. The Company believes Free Cash Flow is useful to investors, as it allows greater transparency of the utilization or generation of cash by the business. Because the definition of Free Cash Flow may vary among companies and industries, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The table below reconciles Net cash used in operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Free Cash Flow for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026.
