“Seadrill delivered solid full-year 2025 financial results while also strengthening our commercial position. Across the fleet, we executed complex deepwater programs ahead of schedule and budget, working closely with customers and key suppliers to develop innovative technical solutions and deliver record‑setting performance - all while raising the bar on safety and achieving the best Total Recordable Incident Rate in our history,” said President and CEO Simon Johnson. “Demand for deepwater rigs continues to improve as customers pursue longer‑term programs. With tightening supply, increasing multi‑year visibility, and the repricing of legacy contracts, Seadrill is entering 2026 from a position of strength, laying the foundation for an even more robust 2027 as utilization, dayrates, and contract durations gather positive momentum.”
Financial and Operational Results
Fourth quarter 2025 total operating revenues decreased to $362 million, compared to $363 million in the prior quarter. Fourth quarter 2025 total operating expenses increased by $7 million to $344 million, compared to $337 million in the prior quarter, largely attributable to an $11 million increase in depreciation and amortization.
Net loss for the fourth quarter was $10 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $88 million, compared to $86 million in the prior quarter.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
At quarter-end, Seadrill had gross principal debt of $625 million and $365 million in cash and cash equivalents, including $26 million of restricted cash, for a net debt position of $260 million. The use of cash during the fourth quarter of 2025 was related to:
- $69 million for capital additions and long-term maintenance, including accelerated spend relating to the contract preparations for West Capella, West Jupiter and West Tellus.
- $43 million payment pertaining to an unfavorable legal judgment associated with the Sonadrill joint venture previously disclosed in 2025.
- Timing of accounts payable disbursements.
Commercial Activity and Contract Backlog
- West Capella was awarded a contract with PTTEP in Malaysia, adding $152 million to contract backlog. The estimated term is 440 days and work is scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2026.
- West Saturn secured a one year extension to its original 2022 contract with Equinor in Brazil, adding $114 million to contract backlog. The 365 day priced option is expected to commence in direct continuation of the current program in October 2026.
- West Neptune was awarded a contract with LLOG in the U.S. Gulf, adding $48 million to contract backlog. The estimated term is 120 days, with the contract expected to commence in May 2026 in direct continuation of the current program.
- West Elara was awarded a contract for accommodation services with Equinor in Norway. The work is scheduled to commence in the third quarter of 2026 and continue into the fourth quarter of 2027. Prior to this fixture, Seadrill reached a mutual agreement with the current contract holder to make the West Elara available.
- West Carina secured an extension to its current contract in Brazil through April 2026.
- Sevan Louisiana was awarded a contract with a large IOC in the U.S. Gulf. The estimated term is two months, with the contract commencing in March 2026.
- Sonangol Quenguela secured a contract extension with TotalEnergies in Angola. The additional term is for an estimated 10 months, committing the rig into February 2027.
As of February 25, 2026, Seadrill’s Contract Backlog was approximately $2.5 billion. The Company today 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 Thursday, February 26 at 08:00 CT / 15:00 CET. Interested participants may join the call by dialing +1 (800) 715-9871 (Conference ID: 7275294) 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 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) Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure, calculated as Net cash (used in)/provided by operating activities less Additions to drilling units and equipment.
(3) These are non-GAAP measures. For a definition and a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure, see Appendices.
(4) 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.

Appendix I - Reconciliation of Net loss to Adjusted EBITDA (Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA represents Net loss before depreciation and amortization, loss on impairment of long-lived assets, gain on disposals, taxes, total financial and non-operating items, other income 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 benefit/expense, total financial items and non-operating items, merger and integration related expenses, loss on impairment of long-lived assets, gain on disposals 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 (loss)/income 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 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 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%. |
