Boost up his confidence and tell him that it's not the end of the world and that if he trys harder he will do better. He won't be upset for a long time but if he just won't get happy about it you can't change that. Just tell him that you don't want to bother him but if he needs anything to come and talk to you.

If so, tell him that yes it's perfectly ok to feel really bad when you get a bad grade on midterms but you can't feel bad forever because it might affect his other grades. Tell him he just needs to put that behind him and start getting good grades again. Because if he keeps of feeling bad he might not be able to concentrate in his other classes which can cause him to get bad grades on his other classes too. And if he's really sad because his paren't might yell at him tell him to tell his parents that he is doin his best..it's not like he's slacking it off and tell them that he'll promise to do better next time.
