Operating Segments
Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $3.3 billion, flat sequentially, while operating income was $570 million, an increase of $56 million, or 11%. Revenue improvements driven by higher year-end completion tool sales globally, improved cementing activity in the Western Hemisphere and Africa, and increased well intervention services internationally were offset by lower stimulation activity in the Western Hemisphere. Operating income increased due to activity mix improvements from completion tool sales in the Western Hemisphere and Europe and cementing activity in Europe/Africa, and well intervention activity resuming in the Middle East.
Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $2.4 billion, flat sequentially, while operating income was $367 million, an increase of $19 million, or 5%. Revenue improvements driven by higher wireline activity in the Eastern Hemisphere and increased year-end software sales in Latin America and Middle/East Asia were offset by lower fluid services in North America and decreased drilling services in Middle East/Asia. Operating income increased due to improved activity mix from wireline activity in the Eastern Hemisphere and year-end software sales.
Geographic Regions
North America
North America revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $2.2 billion, a decrease of 7% sequentially. This decline was primarily driven by lower stimulation activity in US Land and Canada, decreased fluid services in the Gulf of America, and lower well intervention services in US Land. Partially offsetting these decreases were improved cementing activity and higher completion tool sales in US Land and the Gulf of America.
International
International revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $3.5 billion, an increase of 7% when compared to the third quarter of 2025.
Latin America revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $1.1 billion, an increase of 7% sequentially. This increase was primarily driven by higher completion tool sales in Brazil and the Caribbean, and higher software sales in Mexico. Partially offsetting these increases were lower activity across multiple product service lines in Mexico and decreased stimulation activity in Argentina.
Europe/Africa/CIS revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $928 million, an increase of 12% sequentially. This increase was primarily driven by higher completion tool sales in the North Sea, improved well construction activity and increased wireline activity in Africa, and higher stimulation activity in Angola.
Middle East/Asia revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $1.5 billion, an increase of 3% sequentially. This improvement was primarily driven by increased well intervention services and higher stimulation activity in Saudi Arabia, improved well construction activity in Indonesia, higher completion tool sales in Asia, and improved stimulation activity in United Arab Emirates. Partially offsetting these increases were lower completion tool sales and decreased drilling activity in Saudi Arabia, and lower stimulation activity in Qatar and Australia.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, Halliburton recognized a pre-tax charge of $392 million as a result of severance costs, fixed and other assets write-offs, an impairment of assets held for sale, and other items.
(b)
Adjusted operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure which is calculated as: “Operating income” plus “Total impairments and other charges” for the respective periods. Management believes that operating income adjusted for impairments and other charges is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the company's normal operating results. Management analyzes operating income without the impact of these items as an indicator of performance, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals. The adjustments remove the effect of these items.
(c)
We calculate operating margin by dividing operating income by revenue. We calculate adjusted operating margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, by dividing adjusted operating income by revenue. Management believes adjusted operating margin is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance.

See Footnote Table 1 for details of the impairments and other charges recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025.
(b)
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, Halliburton incurred a charge of $23 million due to the impairment of an investment in Argentina.
(c)
The adjustments include an $86 million discrete tax benefit from the FDII deduction attributable to a royalty prepayment as well as the tax effect on impairments and other charges during the three months ended December 31, 2025. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the adjustments include a $125 million tax expense associated with a valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets, which resulted from the impact on the realizability of our United States foreign tax credits due to the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBBA), as well as the tax effect on impairments and other charges and the impairment of an investment in Argentina.
(d)
Adjusted net income attributable to company is a non-GAAP financial measure which is calculated as: “Net income attributable to company” plus “Total adjustments, net of taxes” for the respective periods. Management believes net income adjusted for impairments and other charges and the Argentina investment impairment, along with the tax adjustments is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the company's normal operating results. Management analyzes net income without the impact of these items as an indicator of performance to identify underlying trends in the business and to establish operational goals. Total adjustments remove the effect of these items.
(e)
Net income per diluted share is calculated as: “Net income attributable to company” divided by “Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.” Adjusted net income per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure which is calculated as: “Adjusted net income attributable to company” divided by “Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.” Management believes adjusted net income per diluted share is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, Halliburton incurred a charge of $82 million, primarily due to the impairment of an investment in Argentina and currency devaluation in Egypt.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure which is calculated as “Total cash flows provided by operating activities” less “Capital expenditures” plus “Proceeds from sales of property, plant, and equipment.” Management believes that Free Cash Flow is a key measure to assess liquidity of the business and is consistent with the disclosures of Halliburton's direct, large-cap competitors.
