Form 5500 information is as filed by the plan administrator with the Department of Labor and may be amended. Figures reflect the plan year shown, not current balances. Form 5500 contains no individual account balances. Look up the original filing at EFAST2.
In the plan year ending 31 Dec 2025, Malcolm Drilling Co., Inc. Profit Sharing 401(k) Plan covered 414 participants and held $88.4M in net assets. The plan is a 401(k) plan sponsored by Malcolm Drilling Co., Inc. of San Francisco, California.
Net assets came to $204,853 per participant in plan year 2024, well above the $48,719 median for defined contribution plans with 250 to 499 participants and well above the $54,997 median for defined contribution plans in construction. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
The employer contributed $3.8M during the year, or $13,747 per active participant against a same-size median of $2,015; participants contributed $1.3M and $226K arrived as rollovers and other contributions. Benefits paid out totalled $1.9M.
Schedule C lists 6 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $116K: $279 per participant, well below the same-size median of $141. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $116K. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $14.0M in 2009 to $88.4M in 2025 (up 531%), and participants from 193 to 414 (up 115%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

Questions and answers
How big is Malcolm Drilling Co., Inc. Profit Sharing 401(k) Plan?
414 participants at the end of the plan year ending 31 Dec 2025, of whom 275 were active employees, with net assets of $88,397,152. Among defined contribution plans that places it in the 250 to 499 participants band, which held 17,492 plans in plan year 2024.
What does Malcolm Drilling Co., Inc. contribute per participant?
The filing reports $3,780,314 in employer contributions for the year, which is $13,747 per active participant; the median for plans of the same type and size was $2,015 in plan year 2024. Form 5500 reports the total only. It does not state the match formula, and the per-participant figure is an average, not any one person's contribution.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports $115,707 in compensation to service provider organisations, $279 per participant or 0.13% of net assets. The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $141 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $115,706. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is Malcolm Drilling Co., Inc.. Recordkeeping or administration: Nicholas Pension Consultants, Ai Displays Inc. and Pension Planning Service, Inc.. The financial statements were audited by Eide Bailly LLP. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an unmodified (unqualified) opinion. Unmodified (formerly "unqualified") is the standard clean opinion.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Jan 2025 to 31 Dec 2025, received by the Department of Labor on 27 Aug 2026. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind. It contains plan-level totals only: no individual balances, contributions or names of participants exist in the data.
