Financial Disclosures
SBM Offshore publishes audited full-year earnings results and unaudited half-year earnings results, which include financials, within sixty days of the close of the reporting period. For the first and third quarters, SBM Offshore publishes a trading update, which includes important company news and financial highlights. The Company conducts a conference call and webcast for all earnings releases and a conference call only for all trading updates during which the Management Board presents the results and answers questions. All earnings-related information, including press releases, presentations and conference call details are available on the SBM Offshore website. Please see the Financial Calendar at the end of this section for the timing of publication of financial disclosures for the remainder of 2026. The Company reports a ’Directional’ income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement. Directional reporting aims to increase transparency in relation to SBM Offshore’s cash flow generating capacity and to facilitate investor and analyst review and financial modeling. Furthermore, it also reflects how the Management Board monitors and assesses financial performance of the Company. Directional reporting is included in the audited Consolidated Financial Statements in section 4.3.2.
Dividend Policy and Capital allocation
SBM Offshore has revised its dividend policy to include dividend payments on a semi-annual basis. The Company’s shareholder return policy is to maintain a stable annual cash return to shareholders which grows over time, with flexibility for the Company to make such cash return in the form of cash dividend, paid semi-annually, and the repurchase of shares. Determination of the annual cash return is based on the Company’s assessment of its underlying cash flow position. The Company prioritizes a stable cash distribution to shareholders and funding of growth projects, with the option to apply surplus capital towards incremental cash returns to shareholders.
As a result, following review of its liquidity position and forecast, the Company intends to pay US$2.57 per share1 through a US$270 million (EUR227 million equivalent2) share repurchase program and a proposed US$200m in aggregate dividend3 (EUR169 million equivalent or US$1.17 per share1). This represents an increase in total cash return of 57% compared with 2025. SBM Offshore proposes a US$100m dividend for the year 2025 and a US$100 million dividend in aggregate for the first half year 2026. The dividend for the year 2025 will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting on April 15, 2026. The interim dividend is subject to final resolution and is payable after publication of the HY 2026 results.
The objective of the share buyback program would be to reduce share capital and provide shares for regular management and employee share programs (maximum US$30 million). Shares repurchased as part of the cash return will be cancelled.
