Revenue rises 64.3 percent
Cactus reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of USD 449.53 million on July 29, 2026, up 64.3 percent from USD 273.58 million in the prior-year quarter. The result also exceeded the USD 400.62 million consensus estimate by 12.2 percent, according to Yahoo Finance.
Pressure Control revenue climbed 91.4 percent year over year to USD 344 million, while Spoolable Technologies revenue increased 9.7 percent to USD 105.53 million. The split matters because the larger Pressure Control unit supplied most of the reported growth.

The company entered the period with USD 365.821 million in cash on June 30, 2026, while second-quarter operating cash flow was USD 104.564 million. Those figures give the earnings improvement a balance-sheet dimension, particularly as the company integrates its expanded pressure-control operations.
