What the filing says
Valaris reported Q2 2026 net income of $47 million on revenues of $539 million, with Adjusted EBITDA of $97 million. The company successfully started drillships VALARIS DS-12 and DS-10 on new contracts, achieving 98% revenue efficiency. However, Middle East conflicts cost ~$30 million in negative EBITDA impact (insurance and project delays). Backlog totaled $4.6 billion. The pending business combination with Transocean Ltd. (announced February 9, 2026) remains on track to close in Q4 2026; no future earnings calls will be held.
Why this rating
Q2 results solid but margins pressured by geopolitical risk. Merger is material long-term catalyst but imminent completion limits independent Valaris material. Routine quarterly disclosure.
