Financial Performance Overview
Schlumberger NV, now operating as SLB, disclosed its first-quarter fiscal 2025 results, revealing a 3% year-on-year revenue decline to $8.49 billion, slightly below market expectations.

While we saw growth in the Middle East, North Africa, Argentina, and offshore US, alongside strong performance in our North American data center and digital businesses, these gains were offset by unexpected slowdowns in Mexico, Saudi Arabia, offshore Africa, and a steep decline in Russia.

Following the announcement, SLB's shares dipped by 1.92% in premarket trading, reaching $34.26 per share.
