Q1 2026 revenue was $450 million, up from $437 million in Q4 2025, but down $150.7 million year-over-year, with results exceeding expectations due to strong operational performance and improved market dynamics late in the quarter.
Net loss for Q1 2026 was $80.8 million, narrowing from $140.5 million in Q4 2025 but higher than Q1 2025, driven by lower activity and pricing in Stimulation Services and higher costs in Proppant Production.

Operational momentum improved late in the quarter, with record efficiency in Stimulation Services in March and most of the $100 million annualized savings target achieved.
Macro environment supports increased North American energy activity due to geopolitical events and tightening supply-demand.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.
One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
This is genuinely one of the cleanest and fastest finance apps out there to track the market.
