Here's a preview of what to expect from energy stocks EQNR, CLB, OII and PTEN ahead of their quarterly earnings reports, set to be released tomorrow.
CLB's second-quarter revenues are likely to have declined from the year-ago period's level due to weak segment revenues.
CLB struggles with declining revenues, geopolitical risks, margin compression and weak U.S. demand, creating uncertainty around growth and profitability prospects.
Core Laboratories trades near five-year lows but suffers from limited investor interest and unclear financial segment breakdowns, despite global diversification and energy transition exposure. Reservoir Description is the standout segment, offering recurring, high-margin services with long-term demand, especially as energy transition projects like CCS gain traction. Production Enhancement faces high competition and low margins, and the company's lack of transparency and communication limits investor confidence and potential re-rating.
