Shares of Halliburton Company (NYSE:HAL) rose about 2% after the oilfield services group reported fourth-quarter earnings and revenue that came in ahead of market expectations, underscoring solid execution despite a challenging operating backdrop.
Halliburton delivered adjusted earnings of $0.69 per share for the fourth quarter of 2025, comfortably above analysts’ estimates of $0.55. Quarterly revenue reached $5.7 billion, exceeding the $5.41 billion consensus, although full-year revenue declined to $22.2 billion in 2025 from $22.9 billion in 2024.
“I am pleased with Halliburton’s fourth quarter performance and the way we closed out 2025. We outperformed our expectations and it is clear that Halliburton’s strategy and value proposition deliver differentiated results,” said Chairman, President and CEO Jeff Miller.
International operations provided a key source of strength, with revenue rising 7% sequentially to $3.5 billion. This helped offset softer conditions in North America, where revenue fell 7% to $2.2 billion. Within international markets, revenue increased 7% in Latin America and surged 12% across Europe, Africa and the CIS region.
In the Completion and Production division, revenue was flat at $3.3 billion, but operating income improved by 11% to $570 million. The Drilling and Evaluation segment also posted flat revenue of $2.4 billion, while operating income increased 5% to $367 million.
