NOV Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• NOV Inc. announced on April 15, 2026 (Form 8-K) that it issued a press release providing an operational update and certain preliminary, unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to the filing. The company states the information in the Current Report is not deemed "filed" under Section 18 of the Exchange Act and is not incorporated by reference into other filings unless specifically stated.

Key Details

• Filing date: April 15, 2026 (Form 8-K, Items 2.02 and 9.01).
• Period covered: quarter ended March 31, 2026 (Q1 2026).
• The disclosure consists of an operational update and preliminary, unaudited financial results (press release attached as Exhibit 99.1).
• The company disclaims that the information is not subject to Section 18 liabilities and is not automatically incorporated by reference into other SEC filings.

Why It Matters

• The press release gives investors an early, preliminary view of NOV’s Q1 2026 operating and financial performance (earnings/quarterly results) ahead of audited reports or SEC periodic filings.
• Because the results are preliminary and unaudited and the company disclaims Section 18 filing status, investors should treat the figures as subject to revision and watch for the final reported results in subsequent SEC filings (e.g., Form 10-Q) and company releases.
