What Seadrill Ltd reported on August 10, 2026

The quarter ending June 30, 2026, against the same quarter a year earlier.

These are single quarters, not a trailing year — the figures elsewhere on this site cover twelve months and will be much larger. A seasonal business swings a long way between the two: ServiceNow earns $2.0B of free cash flow in its December quarter and $0.5B in its June one.

Compared against the same quarter a year earlier, not against an analyst forecast. A “beat” or “miss” needs a consensus estimate, which is licensed data we do not carry — and getting it wrong is worse than leaving it out.

What management said

“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,”
