Bulls say / Bears say
Bookings rose 8.5% year on year to €235.3 million in the first half of 2026, while the order backlog increased 31.7% from year-end to €117.9 million. That gives SBO better revenue visibility and supports management’s view that a new upcycle may be starting. (EQS News)
SBO is building growth outside traditional oilfield equipment: non-oil-and-gas bookings approached 10%, seven more 3D metal printers are being added, and its drilling motors have been used successfully in a 300–400°C geothermal programme. These initiatives could reduce reliance on a cyclical core market over time. (EQS News, EQS News)
The recovery has not yet reached the income statement: first-half sales fell to €204.7 million from €253.6 million, profit before tax dropped to €3.1 million from €26.0 million, and net profit was only €0.2 million. This leaves little room for further operational setbacks. (EQS News, MarketScreener)
SBO remains exposed to weak oilfield spending: management cites oil oversupply, low and volatile oil prices, tariffs and geopolitical uncertainty, while key oilfield-service customers describe 2026 as a transition year. A slower recovery could postpone the expected conversion of bookings into sales. (SBO, SBO)
