New operational partnership with delivery giants to combat illegal working

New agreement between Home Office and top food delivery firms will help stop illegal working in the delivery sector

More delivery riders caught sharing their accounts with migrants who have no right to work in the UK will be suspended, as part of the government’s UK-wide crackdown on illegal working under the Plan for Change.

A new agreement between the Home Office and Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats will ensure delivery firms receive new information concerning the locations of asylum hotels to help tackle illegal working.

Under existing security measures, any delivery riders caught sharing their accounts with migrants who have no right to work in the UK will be suspended. This new agreement goes further to ensure more people who are breaking the rules can be caught.

Efforts by the companies to crack down on illegal account sharing through real-time identity and Right to Work checks have been successful and have led to thousands being offboarded from platforms. Despite this, there continues to be abuse in the system. Under the new agreement, the firms will be empowered to go further in detecting patterns of misuse, identify unauthorised account sharing and quickly suspend accounts.

The move comes after a commitment made by the firms during a roundtable last month, chaired by Ministers, to implement new security measures. This includes increased facial verification checks and fraud detection tools meaning only verified users can access their platforms. The Home Office will continue to collaborate closely with the three companies, with meetings taking place in the coming weeks to update on progress and delivery.

Today’s announcement is part of the government’s work to step up enforcement across the UK targeting illegal working hotspots, with a focus on the gig economy and migrants working illegally as delivery riders. It forms a key part of a whole system approach to tackle illegal migration from every angle, by ending the false promise of jobs used by smuggling gangs to sell spaces on small boats.

Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, said:

Illegal working undermines honest business, exploits vulnerable individuals and fuels organised immigration crime.

By enhancing our data sharing with delivery companies, we are taking decisive action to close loopholes and increase enforcement.

The changes come alongside a 50% increase in raids and arrests for illegal working under the Plan for Change, greater security measures and tough new legislation.

Eddy Montgomery, Director of Enforcement, Compliance and Crime at the Home Office, said:

This next step of co-ordinated working with delivery firms will help us target those who seek to work illegally in the gig economy and exploit their status in the UK.

My teams will continue to carry out increased enforcement activity across the UK and I welcome this additional tool to disrupt and stop the abuse of our immigration system.

A Deliveroo spokesperson said:

Deliveroo has led the sector in introducing security measures to prevent the abuse of our platform and tackle the sophisticated criminals seeking new ways to exploit all delivery platforms’ systems. We are fully committed to working with the government as we continue to collectively combat illegal working.

A Just Eat spokesperson said:

Just Eat is committed to tackling any illegal working via our platform. We continue to invest significant resources to strengthen our systems against abuse by individuals and organised criminal groups seeking to evade right to work rules. We are working closely with the Home Office and our industry partners to address any loopholes in the industry’s checks, as well as collaborating on data sharing and enforcement.

An Uber Eats spokesperson said:

Uber Eats is fully committed to tackling illegal work and will continue to work with the Home Office and industry. We have introduced a range of state of the art detection tools to find and remove fraudulent accounts. We are constantly reviewing our tools and finding new ways to detect and take action on people who are trying to work illegally.

Since the government came into power one year ago, there have been more than 10,000 illegal working visits across multiple sectors, leading to 7,130 arrests, up around 50% compared to the year before. This marks the first time in a 12-month period where more than 10,000 visits have taken place.

Almost 750 illegal working civil penalty notices were also handed to businesses caught violating immigration rules in the first quarter of the year, marking the highest level since 2016 – and an 80% increase compared to the same time last year.

The government is tightening the law by making it a legal requirement for all companies, including the gig economy, to check that anyone working for them has the legal right to do so. This will end the abuse of flexible working arrangements. The new measures will be introduced through the landmark Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill.

The fight against illegal working forms just one part of government’s work to bolster border security across the system.

Since coming into power one year ago, the government has returned 35,000 people with no right to be in the UK including failed asylum seekers, immigration and foreign national offenders. There are now fewer asylum hotels open than since the election, saving millions of taxpayers’ money.

This is on top of a new groundbreaking deal with the French which will mean that, for the very first time, illegal migrants will be sent back to France. This targets the heart of the criminal smuggling gangs’ business model and sends a clear message that these life-threatening journeys are pointless and a waste of thousands of pounds. 

The deal seeks to detain and return migrants who arrive via small boat, and an equal number of migrants will be able to come to the UK from France through a new legal route – fully documented and subject to strict security checks.

MIL-OSI Russia: Iran FM: Lifting sanctions, respecting country’s nuclear rights necessary to resume talks with US

TEHRAN, July 22 (Xinhua) — Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Tuesday that his country is ready to resume indirect talks with the United States on the condition that sanctions are lifted and Tehran’s right to use nuclear technology for “peaceful” purposes is respected.

The diplomat made the statement at a meeting with members of the Iranian parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, as reported by the official Iranian news agency IRNA, citing committee member Yaghub Rezazadeh.

According to the legislator, A. Araghchi noted that “if sanctions are lifted and Iran’s right to use peaceful nuclear technologies is respected, indirect negotiations with the United States will take place before the issue of /activating/ the sanctions rollback mechanism is raised in October.”

The sanctions snapback mechanism is part of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). It allows other parties to reimpose all international sanctions if Iran fails to comply with the agreement.

As Y. Rezazadeh pointed out, in addition, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced preparations for negotiations on the Iranian nuclear program between Iran and Russia, as well as a meeting of representatives of Iran and three European countries – France, Great Britain and Germany, which is scheduled to take place on July 25 in Istanbul and will be devoted to the same issue.

Iran signed the JCPOA with six countries – Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States – in July 2015. Under the deal, Tehran agreed to curb its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief.

In 2018, the United States unilaterally withdrew from the deal and reimposed sanctions on Iran, prompting Tehran to begin gradually backtracking on its nuclear commitments. –0–

Adjusted EBITDA* of $1,212 million, up 7% year-over-year.
Cash flows from operating activities of $510 million and free cash flow* of $239 million.
Returns to shareholders of $423 million, including $196 million of share repurchases.

HOUSTON and LONDON, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Baker Hughes Company (Nasdaq: BKR) (“Baker Hughes” or the “Company”) announced results today for the second quarter of 2025.

“We delivered strong second-quarter results, with total adjusted EBITDA margins increasing 170 basis points year-over-year to 17.5% despite a modest decline in revenue. This performance reflects the benefits of structural cost improvements and continued deployment of our business system, which is driving higher productivity, stronger operating leverage and more durable earnings across the company,” said Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

“IET orders totaled $3.5 billion in the quarter, resulting in another record backlog for the segment. Importantly, order momentum remained strong, supported by more than $550 million of data center related orders, despite the absence of large LNG awards. Following a strong first half and a positive outlook for second half awards, we are confident of achieving the full-year order guidance range for IET.”

“We remain confident in our ability to deliver solid performance in 2025, with continued growth in IET helping to offset softness in more market-sensitive areas of OFSE – underscoring the strength of our portfolio and the benefits of our strategic diversification. Accordingly, we are raising our full-year revenue and EBITDA guidance for IET and reestablishing full-year guidance for OFSE.”

“During the quarter, we also announced three strategic transactions to advance our portfolio optimization strategy, reinforcing efforts to enhance the durability of earnings and cash flow while creating long-term value for shareholders. These actions are designed to unlock value from non-core businesses in our portfolio and redeploy that capital into higher-margin opportunities that fit our financial and strategic frameworks.”

“We are progressing with our strategy of positioning the company for sustainable, differentiated growth and commend the focus and dedication of our people in executing this strategy,” concluded Simonelli.

Quarter Highlights

Executing our portfolio optimization strategy

In the second quarter, Baker Hughes announced three strategic transactions, all of which reflect a disciplined capital allocation framework and a focus on core businesses with strong return potential.

First, the Company signed an agreement to form a joint venture with a subsidiary of Cactus, Inc., contributing the Oilfield Services & Equipment’s (“OFSE“) Surface Pressure Control (“SPC“) product line in exchange for approximately $345 million while maintaining a minority ownership stake.

Second, the Company announced an agreement to sell the Precision Sensors & Instrumentation (“PSI“) product line within Industrial & Energy Technology (“IET“) to Crane Company for approximately $1.15 billion. These proceeds will enhance the Company’s flexibility to reinvest in higher-growth, higher-return areas that support further margin expansion and improved returns.

Finally, Baker Hughes agreed to acquire Continental Disc Corporation (“CDC“), a leading provider of pressure management solutions, for approximately $540 million. The CDC acquisition strengthens the IET Industrial Products portfolio with a highly complementary, margin-accretive business that expands the Company’s position in the flow and pressure control market and enhances recurring, lifecycle driven revenue.

Key awards and technology achievements

The Company continued to support the development of critical data center projects, with year-to-date data center awards of more than $650 million. IET received an award to supply 30 NovaLT™ turbines, representing our largest data center award to-date. The turbines, alongside other associated Baker Hughes equipment, will deliver up to 500 megawatts (MW) of reliable and efficient power for data center development across various U.S. locations.

Frontier Infrastructure awarded a contract for NovaLT™ turbines, delivering up to 270 MW of power for its data center projects in Wyoming and Texas. This follows the March 2025 enterprise-wide agreement to accelerate large scale carbon capture and storage (“CCS“) and power solutions.

Baker Hughes continues to grow the pipeline of future data center opportunities. At the Saudi-U.S. Investment Forum in May, the Company signed an MoU with DataVolt that plans to power data centers globally, including the NEOM project in the Kingdom that intends to utilize Baker Hughes’ multi-fuel NovaLT™ technology solution.

In addition to growing demand from data center applications, IET experienced increased demand for NovaLT™ turbines in the gas infrastructure sector. During the second quarter, the segment secured an award for four gas turbines to support Aramco’s Master Gas System III pipeline project. Including this award, we have secured a total of $2.9 billion in gas infrastructure equipment orders over the past six quarters.

Highlighting the durability of IET’s lifecycle model, the segment was awarded several aftermarket services contracts. In Gas Technology Services (“GTS“), the Company secured more than $350 million of Contractual Services Agreements (“CSA“) during the quarter. We signed a maintenance agreement with Belayim Petroleum Company (“Petrobel”) to improve uptime and reliability of critical turbomachinery equipment in Egypt. Also in GTS, we renewed a multi-year service agreement with Oman LNG, including resident engineering support along with digital remote monitoring and diagnostics services delivered through iCenter™.

The Company gained further traction with New Energy globally, with year-to-date bookings now totaling $1.25 billion. In Climate Technology Solutions (“CTS“), we secured one of our largest CCS orders to-date, providing compression technology for a CCS hub in the Middle East. Also in CTS, we signed a framework agreement with Energinet in Denmark to supply 16 reciprocating compressor packages, supporting an increase in biogas production while driving methane and CO₂ emissions reduction for gas infrastructure across the country.

Industrial Technology continued to demonstrate strong momentum across multiple end markets. In Industrial Solutions, we secured a variety of awards for our Cordant™ suite of solutions. This includes an award from a large NOC to deploy Asset Performance Management across several compression stations in the Middle East, and an award from NOVA Chemicals to optimize maintenance spend and maximize production.

OFSE maintained strong momentum in Mature Assets Solutions around the globe. In Angola, OFSE was awarded multi-year production solutions contracts for chemicals, artificial lift, and digital services to support a major operator’s offshore activities. In Kazakhstan, the TOPAN and Baker Hughes joint venture secured a critical production chemicals and services award. In Norway, Equinor awarded OFSE a contract to industrialize offshore plug and abandonment (“P&A“) operations in the Oseberg East field, which followed the announcement of a multi-year P&A framework agreement for integrated well services.

OFSE saw continued adoption of Leucipa™ automated field production solution, securing an award from Repsol for next-generation AI capabilities following the MoU signed in October 2024. The Company also signed an agreement with ENI to deploy Leucipa for electric submersible pumps (“ESP“) optimization and AI-powered predictive failure analytics in the Middle East.

Also in the Middle East, Baker Hughes signed a master services agreement with Aramco for installation and maintenance of ESPs across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

In North America, OFSE secured a multi-year contract to provide drag reducing chemicals to be deployed on Genesis Energy’s Cameron Highway Oil Pipeline and Poseidon systems, each of which is operated and 64% owned by Genesis Energy. To support this agreement, OFSE will expand its chemicals manufacturing footprint and deploy Leucipa. Additionally, bp awarded OFSE a multi-year chemicals management services contract to optimize throughput and asset reliability in the U.S. Gulf Coast.

In Germany, OFSE successfully drilled Lower Saxony’s first productive deep geothermal exploration well, a project that leverages OFSE’s integrated well construction and production capabilities and the Company’s industry-leading subsurface-to-surface digital solutions to monitor and optimize operational performance.

Consolidated Financial Results

Revenue for the quarter was $6,910 million, an increase of 8% sequentially and down $229 million year-over-year. The decrease in revenue year-over-year was driven by a decrease in OFSE partially offset by an increase in IET.

The Company’s total book-to-bill ratio in the second quarter of 2025 was 1.0; the IET book-to-bill ratio was 1.1.

Net income as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for the second quarter of 2025 was $701 million. Net income increased $299 million sequentially and increased $122 million year-over-year.

Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the second quarter of 2025 was $623 million, which excludes adjustments totaling $78 million. A list of the adjusting items and associated reconciliation from GAAP has been provided in Table 1b in the section titled “Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2025 was up 22% sequentially and up 10% year-over-year.

Depreciation and amortization for the second quarter of 2025 was $293 million.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the second quarter of 2025 was $1,212 million, which excludes adjustments totaling $102 million. See Table 1a in the section titled “Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was up 17% sequentially and up 7% year-over-year.

The sequential increase in adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by an increase in volume, favorable FX, and overall productivity. The year-over-year increase in adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA was driven by productivity and structural cost out initiatives, favorable FX, partially offset by lower volume in OFSE, and cost inflation in both segments.

Other Financial Items

Remaining Performance Obligations (“RPO”) in the second quarter of 2025 ended at $34 billion, an increase of $0.8 billion from the first quarter of 2025. OFSE RPO was $2.7 billion, down 3% sequentially, while IET RPO was $31.3 billion, up 3% sequentially. Within IET RPO, GTE RPO was $11.3 billion, and GTS RPO was $15.6 billion.

Income tax expense in the second quarter of 2025 was $256 million.

Other (income) expense, net in the second quarter of 2025 was $(134) million, primarily related to changes in fair value for equity securities of $(119) million.

GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.71. Adjusted diluted earnings per share (a non-GAAP financial measure) was $0.63. Excluded from adjusted diluted earnings per share were all items listed in Table 1b in the section titled “Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Cash flow from operating activities was $510 million for the second quarter of 2025. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the quarter was $239 million. A reconciliation from GAAP has been provided in Table 1c in the section titled “Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Capital expenditures, net of proceeds from disposal of assets, were $271 million for the second quarter of 2025, of which $184 million was for OFSE and $68 million was for IET.

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management provides non-GAAP financial measures because it believes such measures are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance (including adjusted EBITDA; adjusted net income attributable to Baker Hughes; and adjusted diluted earnings per share) and liquidity (free cash flow) and that these measures may be used by investors to make informed investment decisions. Management believes that the exclusion of certain identified items from several key operating performance measures enables us to evaluate our operations more effectively, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals for certain management compensation purposes. Management also believes that free cash flow is an important supplemental measure of our cash performance but should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP.

Revenue of $6.9 billion, down 3% year-over-year.

HOUSTON and LONDON, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Baker Hughes Company (Nasdaq: BKR) (“Baker Hughes” or the “Company”) announced results today for the second quarter of 2025.

“We delivered strong second-quarter results, with total adjusted EBITDA margins increasing 170 basis points year-over-year to 17.5% despite a modest decline in revenue. This performance reflects the benefits of structural cost improvements and continued deployment of our business system, which is driving higher productivity, stronger operating leverage and more durable earnings across the company,” said Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

“IET orders totaled $3.5 billion in the quarter, resulting in another record backlog for the segment. Importantly, order momentum remained strong, supported by more than $550 million of data center related orders, despite the absence of large LNG awards. Following a strong first half and a positive outlook for second half awards, we are confident of achieving the full-year order guidance range for IET.”

“We remain confident in our ability to deliver solid performance in 2025, with continued growth in IET helping to offset softness in more market-sensitive areas of OFSE – underscoring the strength of our portfolio and the benefits of our strategic diversification. Accordingly, we are raising our full-year revenue and EBITDA guidance for IET and reestablishing full-year guidance for OFSE.”

“During the quarter, we also announced three strategic transactions to advance our portfolio optimization strategy, reinforcing efforts to enhance the durability of earnings and cash flow while creating long-term value for shareholders. These actions are designed to unlock value from non-core businesses in our portfolio and redeploy that capital into higher-margin opportunities that fit our financial and strategic frameworks.”

“We are progressing with our strategy of positioning the company for sustainable, differentiated growth and commend the focus and dedication of our people in executing this strategy,” concluded Simonelli.
