In the fourth quarter of 2025, Bristow reported net income of

$0.61 per diluted share, on revenues of
$377.3 million. This was a decrease compared to the preceding quarter due to seasonal fluctuations and increased operational costs, particularly in the government services segment.
Segment Analysis

$42.2 million, demonstrating resilience amid market fluctuations. Moreover, annual revenues were noted at
$990 million, showing year-over-year growth.
Government Services
Conversely, revenues from government services saw a modest downturn, largely due to seasonal variability in flight hours. The segment generated
$100.1 million for the quarter, with adjusted operating income decreasing as the company implemented new government contracts.

Looking ahead, Bristow Group is optimistic about the future. The company's leadership, led by President and CEO Chris Bradshaw, expressed confidence in double growth for the adjusted operating income in the government services sector in 2026. Bristow anticipates an
