TechnipFMC posts strong Q3 2026 results and lifts subsea revenue guidance

TechnipFMC reported adjusted earnings of $1.05 per share on $2.9 billion of revenue for the third quarter of 2026. The subsea segment posted a record adjusted EBITDA margin of 23.5% and generated $2.1 billion of inbound subsea orders, bringing total Q3 orders to $2.3 billion. Management raised full‑year 2026 subsea revenue guidance to $9.6‑$9.8 billion, introduced 2027 subsea revenue guidance of $10.0‑$10.4 billion, and reaffirmed expectations of at least $14.5 billion in subsea orders over the next five quarters.

The higher subsea revenue outlook and free‑cash‑flow guidance suggest stronger cash generation and potential shareholder returns, though the company warned of a seasonal decline in subsea revenue in Q4 2026. Investors will watch whether the raised guidance translates into sustained earnings growth.
