Q2 FY26 earnings call · Jul 30, 2026
Q2 FY26

TL;DR. RPC reported modest sequential revenue growth to $460.9M with Adjusted EBITDA margins expanding 250bps to 14.3% on better job mix and pricing, while the company increased its full-year CapEx range to $170–$190M to fund targeted growth investments; CEO Ben Palmer announced his retirement by year-end 2026.

Bullish
  • + Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 250bps sequentially to 14.3% on better job mix, modest pricing, and operational leverage
  • + Downhole Tools revenues rose 10% sequentially with Rocky Mountain region up more than 20%
  • + Balance sheet strengthened as revolving credit facility was extended to June 2031 with no borrowings and $179.5M cash
  • + Full-year 2026 CapEx range was increased to $170–$190M to fund differentiated, high-return growth investments
Bearish
  • − Pintail Wireline revenues fell 16% sequentially on customer activity reductions and lost crews from aggressive competitor pricing
  • − CEO Ben Palmer announced retirement by year-end 2026 with a board-led successor search underway
  • − Year-to-date free cash flow was only $3.8M after $70.8M of CapEx, pressured by working capital use
