Exhibit 99.1 Contact: Michael Sabella Vice President, Investor Relations (281) 885-7589 Patterson-UTI Energy Reports Financial Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2026 HOUSTON, Texas – July 29, 2026 – PATTERSON-UTI ENERGY, INC. (NASDAQ: PTEN) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Other Key Items • Second Quarter 2026 Total Revenue of $1.2 billion, a 10% sequential increase • Second Quarter 2026 Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders of $20 million ◦ Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders of $1 million; excludes a $21 million non-cash charge associated with the exit of our Contract Drilling operations in Colombia and a $5 million non-cash write down of other noncontrolling investments • Second Quarter 2026 Adjusted EBITDA of $232 million • Expecting further growth in Drilling and Completion activity and pricing in the third quarter • Declared a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share, payable on September 15, 2026 to holders of record as of September 1, 2026 Management Commentary “We delivered a strong quarter, with a positive inflection in activity and momentum building across each of our businesses as we moved through the second quarter and into the third,” said Andy Hendricks, Chief Executive Officer. “Our team executed very well, customer activity is growing, and the U.S. onshore market is responding to a more constructive commodity price environment. These results reflect the strategic investments we have made to position Patterson-UTI as a premier oilfield services company across each of our core businesses. Importantly, this second quarter performance was achieved without the benefit of the additional growth capital investments announced during the quarter. We expect those investments to support continued growth into 2027 and beyond, while further strengthening our technology leadership.” “Commodity volatility has continued into the third quarter amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, but the broader market backdrop has become increasingly constructive,” continued Mr. Hendricks. “Higher commodity prices contributed to increased U.S. onshore drilling activity during the second quarter, and that momentum has carried into the third. As the quarter progresses, we expect both drilling and completion activity to continue building. In Drilling Services, we have already signed contracts for additional rigs and are advancing the reactivation and upgrade work needed to activate those rigs. In Completion Services, our fleet was effectively sold out prior to industry activity increasing, and customer discussions around price increases remain very constructive, along with growing interest in our new Emerald natural gas direct drive technology and the added value of our integrated completion services. Taken together, these trends reinforce our confidence in the trajectory of our businesses and our ability to deliver additional returns for investors.” “Activity is ramping faster than we initially expected, and we are moving decisively to capture opportunities that should create meaningful long-term value for Patterson-UTI,” said Andy Smith, Chief Financial Officer. “Seasonally, working capital in the first half is typically a use of cash for the company, and the stronger pace of activity required a larger working capital investment in the first half of the year as we supported higher customer demand. Working capital typically reverses somewhat in the second half. Importantly, even as we fund working capital and capital investments that strengthen earnings power over time, we still expect full-year 2026 free cash flow to more than cover our 2026 dividend payments, and we expect free cash flow to improve in 2027.” Drilling Services Second quarter Drilling Services revenue was $374 million, and adjusted gross profit was $114 million. During the quarter, we made the decision to exit our Contract Drilling operations in Colombia, where we operated less than one rig on average during the period. In connection with this decision, our Direct Operating Costs include a non-cash charge of approximately $20 million, primarily related to the write-down of inventory that supported older rig technology in Colombia and the write-down of other assets in the country. Excluding these items, Drilling Services adjusted gross profit would have been $134 million. U.S. Contract Drilling operating days totaled 8,361 during the second quarter, with an average of 92 rigs operating during the period. Activity strengthened as the quarter progressed, and we exited the quarter with 96 rigs operating. Higher demand, together with growing customer interest in structural rig upgrades, supported approximately 10-15% pricing increases on recently awarded term contracts compared to levels at the start of the year. Directional Drilling also delivered a strong quarter, driven in part by continued growth in our downhole motor rental business. (1) (2) (3)

Completion Services Second quarter Completion Services revenue totaled $754 million, with adjusted gross profit of $123 million. Completion Services delivered stronger second quarter results, driven by high pressure pumping utilization, improved pricing, and continued growth in our integrated service offering. Industry capacity remained tight throughout the quarter, and the recent increase in rig count has not yet fully flowed through to completion demand, which typically follows drilling activity with a three- to six-month lag. Against this strengthening backdrop, revenue per pump hour increased by a mid-single digit percentage sequentially, on average, supported by improved core pressure pumping pricing and a higher contribution from integrated completion services. Adjusted gross profit increased across all service lines, with the strongest percentage increase coming from our Power Solutions natural gas fueling business. Drilling Products Second quarter Drilling Products revenue totaled $91 million, with adjusted gross profit of $37 million. Drilling Products delivered its strongest quarterly revenue since Patterson-UTI completed the Ulterra acquisition in 2023, overcoming challenges in the Middle East, our largest international market, and the seasonal spring breakup in Canada. International revenue reached a company record, while U.S. revenue per industry rig approached record levels, reflecting strong execution across multiple points in the rig-count cycle. Other Second quarter Other revenue totaled $9 million, with adjusted gross profit of $7 million. Outlook In Drilling Services, we expect our average U.S. rig count to be approximately 100 in the third quarter, and we expect to exit the quarter higher than the quarterly average. Results should also benefit from a full quarter of the higher pricing achieved during the second quarter as well as additional pricing improvements in the third quarter. Overall, we expect Drilling Services adjusted gross profit to be approximately $145 million in the third quarter. In Completion Services, we expect third quarter adjusted gross profit to be approximately $140 million, supported by near-full utilization across our active frac equipment and additional pricing improvement compared to the second quarter. While we increased our capital expenditure budget during the second quarter, our strategy remains focused on high-return, 100% natural gas, Emerald investments and disciplined fleet management. We will continue decommissioning diesel assets over time, and we do not expect active horsepower to increase during the second half of 2026. In Drilling Products, we expect third quarter adjusted gross profit to be approximately $40 million, driven by higher drilling activity in the United States, and the seasonal recovery from spring breakup in Canada. We expect Other adjusted gross profit in the third quarter to be approximately $5 million. For the third quarter, we expect general and administrative expense to be approximately $70 million and depreciation, depletion, amortization, and impairment expense to be approximately $225 million. Consistent with our update during the second quarter, total capital expenditures, net of asset sales, are still expected to be approximately $600 million in 2026. Except for cash dividends per common share, all references to “per share” in this press release are diluted earnings per common share as defined within Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus income tax expense (benefit), net interest expense, depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment expense, exit costs, noncontrolling investment write-down, legal accruals and settlements, impairment of goodwill and merger and integration expense. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it provides to both management and investors additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and a comparison of the results of our operations from period to period and against our peers without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income (loss). Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures of other companies. (1) (1)
