This quarter, analysts are expecting RingCentral's revenue to grow 4.2% year on year to $617.7 million, slowing from the 9.9% increase it recorded in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $1.02 per share.
The majority of analysts covering the company have reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. RingCentral has only missed Wall Street's revenue estimates once over the last two years, exceeding top-line expectations by 0.6% on average.
Looking at RingCentral's peers in the productivity software segment, some have already reported their Q2 results, giving us a hint as to what we can expect. Five9 delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 12.4%, beating analysts' expectations by 2.9%, and ServiceNow reported revenues up 22.4%, topping estimates by 2.9%. Five9 traded down 6.1% following the results while ServiceNow was up 4.3%.

The outlook for 2025 remains clouded by potential trade policy changes and corporate tax discussions, which could impact business confidence and growth. While some of the productivity software stocks have shown solid performance in this choppy environment, the group has generally underperformed, with share prices down 5% on average over the last month. RingCentral is down 19.7% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $33.29 (compared to the current share price of $23.75).

SBM Offshore Half Year 2025 Earnings
Amsterdam, August 7, 2025 Highlights Increase in full year 2025 Directional1 revenue guidance from above US$4.9 billion to above US$5.0 billion Increase in full year 2025 Directional EBITDA guidance from around US$1.55 billion to above US$1.6 billion 26% increase in year-to-date Directional revenue of US$2.3 billion; 10% increase in Directional EBITDA of US$682 million First oil for FPSOs Almirante Tamandaré and Alexandre de Gusmão FPSO ONE GUYANA on charter, preparing for first oil FPSO GranMorgu operations and maintenance contract signed with TotalEnergies Further portfolio rationalization through sale of FPSO Aseng2 EUR150 million dividend paid; EUR141 million share repurchase program on track, c. 34% completed3 SBM Offshore's Half Year 2025 Earnings and Interim Financial Statements can be found on its website here: HY25 Earnings. Øivind Tangen, CEO of SBM Offshore, commented: 'Thanks to solid project execution performance and the start-up of two major FPSOs, we delivered strong financial results for the first half of 2025. As a result, we are increasing both our Directional revenue and EBITDA guidance for 2025. This success underscores our teams' ability and discipline in executing our lifecycle model. It is also a clear demonstration of a resilient business model, consistently proving its quality and agility regardless of macro-economic uncertainties and geopolitical challenges. During the first half of the year, we brought online two large FPSOs in Brazil with a combined capacity of 405,000 bbls/day. Additionally, FPSO ONE GUYANA, which will be the largest producing unit in Guyana with a nameplate capacity of 250,000 bbls/day, is on charter as of August 4 and preparing for first oil. Delivery of these three assets brings the size of our fleet to 17 FPSOs with a production capacity of 2.7 million bbls/day. This scale brings experience, learnings and data which allow us to continuously refine our lifecycle value proposition and deliver enhanced value to our clients by derisking project execution, accelerating time to reach full operational capacity and improving uptime. Construction is on track for FPSOs Jaguar, GranMorgu and FSO Trion. The last two FPSOs that started production in Brazil achieved flare out in an industry-leading average below 45 days, and we achieved an uptime average of 99.4% for the first six months across the fleet. In Guyana, debottlenecking of processing facilities on our initial three FPSOs increased production capacity by 125,000 bbls/day. In June, we signed an agreement with TotalEnergies to provide the operations and maintenance service for at least two years of FPSO GranMorgu. This contract will make SBM Offshore the first FPSO operator in Suriname. The deepwater market outlook remains robust, driven by the demand for cost-efficient and low-emission oil production. We are progressing construction of two new hulls to actively support tendering activities and remain disciplined in selecting prospects where we can generate most value to enhance our portfolio. The strong fundamentals of the deepwater market, coupled with our backlog's resilience to inflationary pressures, underpins our ability to provide stable and growing returns to shareholders. We are on track to return a minimum of US$1.7 billion to shareholders over the six years from 2025 to 2030, with upside potential from the existing backlog and prospective new awards. Using our ocean infrastructure expertise, we are innovating for the long term with purpose. In April 2025, we secured the American Bureau of Shipping's approval in principle for our near zero emission FPSO, and our collaboration with Microsoft to develop standardized floating power solutions with integrated carbon capture technology is progressing. We are delivering on our promise to provide reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy for the long-term through a strategy that pays.'

The increase is mainly driven by Directional Turnkey revenue, which rose to US$1,322 million in the first half, a 100% increase compared with US$662 million in the same period last year. This improved contribution mainly reflects the progress on the construction projects of FPSOs Jaguar and GranMorgu under the Sale and Operate model. This was partially offset by the completion of FPSO Sepetiba in January 2024, and the overall comparatively lower level of construction activity during the first half of 2025 on FPSOs Almirante Tamandaré, Alexandre de Gusmão and ONE GUYANA as these projects reached or neared completion. Directional Lease and Operate revenue came in at US$988 million, a 16% decrease compared with US$1,178 million in the same period last year. This variance is mainly driven by FPSOs Liza Destiny and Prosperity only contributing as operating contracts in 2025 following the purchase of the units by the client in 4Q 2024 and a decrease in reimbursable scope on the fleet, partially offset by FPSOs Almirante Tamandaré and Alexandre de Gusmão joining the fleet upon successful delivery in the first half year of 2025 and the contribution of FPSOs N'Goma, Saxi Batuque and Mondo following the increase in ownership in June 2024. Directional EBITDA amounted to US$682 million in the first half of 2025, a US$62 million or 10% improvement compared with the same period last year. This was mainly attributable to the higher contribution of Directional Turnkey EBITDA, which increased from US$(12) million in the year-ago period to US$225 million in the first half of 2025 due to (i) full margin contribution of FPSO Jaguar after reaching the 25% stage of completion gate in 4Q 2024, (ii) limited but positive contribution of FPSO GranMorgu as the project reached the requisite stage of completion in 2Q 2025, (iii) successful completion of FPSOs Almirante Tamandaré and Alexandre de Gusmão, and (iv) offset by a lower level of activity on other product and services projects. Directional Lease and Operate EBITDA stood at US$497 million in the first half of the year compared with US$679 million in the same period last year. This lower contribution reflects (i) the same drivers as Directional Lease and Operate revenue, and (ii) a net positive impact from the completion of the transactions with MISC in the first half of 2025 (acquisition of interests in FPSO Espirito Santo and the full divestment in FPSO Kikeh), partially offset by an aggregate gain in the prior period from the transactions with Sonangol (acquisition of interests held in FPSOs N'Goma, Saxi Batuque and Mondo, divestment of the Paenal shipyard). The other non-allocated costs charged to Directional EBITDA amounted to US$(41) million in the first half of 2025, a 14% improvement compared with the previous year as a result of lower general and administrative costs. The Company recorded a Directional net profit of US$274 million, or US$1.57 per share, for the first half of 2025 up from US$128 million, or US$0.71 per share, in the year-ago period. Funding and Directional Net Debt Directional net debt stood at US$5.6 billion as of June 30, 2025 versus US$5.7 billion as of December 31, 2024. While the Turnkey (with Sale and Operate model) and the Lease and Operate segments continue to generate strong operating cash flow, the Company implemented a new financing tool with the sale and leaseback financing agreement for FPSO Cidade de Paraty, fully drawn in the first half year of 2025. The Company also continued to draw on the project finance facilities for FPSOs Alexandre de Gusmão and ONE GUYANA, on the construction financing for FPSO Jaguar and on the new RCF agreement. This was partially offset by scheduled repayments on the non-recourse debt, the full repayment of the MPF facility, the full repayment of the previous RCF agreement and the full repayment of the US private placement notes in relation to FPSO Cidade de Anchieta. Almost half of the Company's Directional debt as of June 30, 2025 consisted of non-recourse project financing (US$3.0 billion). The remainder (US$3.3 billion) comprised (i) borrowings supporting the construction of FPSOs ONE GUYANA and Alexandre de Gusmão, which will become non-recourse following project execution finalization and release of the related parent company guarantees, (ii) the construction financing for FPSO Jaguar which will be repaid following completion of construction, and (iii) the new Company's RCF, which was drawn for US$100 million as at June 30, 2025. The Directional net cash balance stood at US$794 million as of June 30, 2025. Pro-Forma Directional Backlog Changes in ownership scenarios and lease contract durations have the potential to significantly impact the Company's future cash flows, net debt balance as well as the profit and loss statement. The Company therefore provides a pro-forma Directional backlog based on the best available information regarding ownership scenarios and lease contract durations for the various projects. The pro-forma Directional backlog decreased by US$1.9 billion compared with the position at December 31, 2024 to a total of US$33.2 billion reflecting the turnover for the period. The Company's backlog provides cash flow visibility up to 2050. in US$ billion Turnkey Lease & Operate Total 2H 20251.4 1.3 2.7 20261.6 2.6 4.2 20273.4 2.0 5.4 Beyond 2027 0.4 20.5 20.9 Total pro-forma Directional backlog6.8 26.4 33.2 The pro-forma Directional backlog at June 30, 2025 reflects the following key assumptions: The FPSO ONE GUYANA contract covers a maximum lease period of 2 years, within which the ownership of the FPSO will transfer to the client. The impact of the subsequent sale is reflected in the Turnkey backlog. The FPSO Jaguar contract awarded to the Company in April 2024 covers the construction period within which the ownership of the FPSO will transfer to the client and is reported in the Turnkey backlog. 10 years of operations and maintenance are considered for FPSOs Liza Destiny, Liza Unity, Prosperity and ONE GUYANA following signature of the Operations & Maintenance Enabling Agreement in 2023. Regarding FPSO Jaguar, the pro-forma Directional backlog includes the operating and maintenance scope for 10 years as it has been agreed in principle, pending a final work order. This is consistent with prior years. The FPSO GranMorgu contract awarded in November 2024 covers the construction period within which the FPSO ownership will transfer to the client and is reported in the Turnkey backlog. The operations and maintenance contract signed in June 2025 covers a minimal period of two years after first oil. The FSO Trion contract awarded to the Company in August 2024 is considered for 20 years in lease and operate contracts at the Company ownership share at June 30, 2025 (100%). The full divestment of FPSO Aseng has been reflected in the pro-forma backlog. The completion of the transaction remains subject to several conditions precedent and approvals. Leases, operations and maintenance contract extension options are considered when secured. It should be noted that the sale and leaseback financing agreement for FPSO Cidade de Paraty signed in April 2025 did not impact the pro-forma Directional backlog. Under Directional reporting, the transaction is not treated as a sale of the unit according to IFRS 16. Project Review and Fleet Operational Update Project deliveries The Company is on track to bring three major FPSOs into operation in 2025: FPSO Almirante Tamandaré - First oil was achieved in February and gas flare out in 49 days, as planned. FPSO Alexandre de Gusmão - First oil was achieved in May and gas flare out in 36 days, ahead of plan. FPSO ONE GUYANA - The FPSO was delivered on time. The Production Readiness Notice was issued on August 4, and the unit is preparing for first oil. These three units have a combined production capacity of 655,000 bbls/day, bringing the size of the SBM fleet to 17 FPSOs with a production capacity of 2.7 million bbls/day.

Siemens reports Q3 results in line with forecasts
ZURICH (Reuters) -Siemens reported industrial profit in line with forecasts for its latest quarter on Thursday as the German engineering group navigated the fallout of rising global trade barriers. The maker of industrial software and trains reported industrial profit falling 7% to 2.82 billion euros ($3.29 billion) for the three months to the end of June, in line with analyst forecasts in a company-gathered consensus. Earnings were reduced by currency translation effects, particularly the fall of the dollar versus euro during the quarter, as well as restructuring costs as Siemens shed jobs at its flagship digital industry division. Revenue rose 3% to 19.38 billion euros, beating forecasts for 19.24 billion euros. "Our third-quarter performance demonstrates that Siemens is delivering robust results despite the volatile global market," said Chief Executive Roland Busch in a statement.
