HELMERICH & PAYNE, INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2019 RESULTS
•
Quarterly U.S. Land adjusted average rig revenue increased by more than $495(1) per day, up approximately 2% sequentially

•
Quarterly U.S. Land adjusted average rig margin decreased by approximately $170(1) per day, down roughly 2% sequentially

•
H&P upgraded 2 FlexRigs® to super-spec(2) capacity during the third fiscal quarter of 2019 and received multi-year term contracts with attractive pricing

•
The Company incurred a non-cash impairment charge of $224 million related to excess drilling equipment and spares, primarily driven by the reduction of 53 rigs within our FlexRig4 fleet during the quarter

•
The Company sent its first super-spec FlexRig to Argentina and has a letter of intent to deploy a second super-spec FlexRig into the country with a different customer

•
H&P's drilling automation technology, AutoSlideSM, has been commercially deployed in four U.S. shale basins, with the next deployment scheduled during the fourth fiscal quarter

•
On June 5, 2019, Directors of the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.71 per share


Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (NYSE:HP) reported a net loss of $155 million or $(1.42) per diluted share from operating revenues of $688 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to income of $61 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, on revenues of $721 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.  The net loss per diluted share for the third fiscal quarter and the net income for second fiscal quarter include $(1.82) and $(0.01), respectively, of after-tax losses comprised of select items(3). For the third fiscal quarter select items(3) were comprised of:
•
$0.15 of after-tax gains pertaining to early termination compensation, gains on sales, and discrete tax adjustments

•
$(1.97) of after-tax losses pertaining to impairments of drilling equipment and spares mainly driven by the downsizing of the Flex4 rig fleet, inventory write-downs, abandonments and accelerated depreciation, and a non-cash fair market adjustment to our equity investments

Net cash provided by operating activities was $250 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to $200 million for the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2019.

President and CEO John Lindsay commented, “The industry saw further softening in U.S. drilling activity resulting from a combination of crude oil price volatility and budget discipline by our customers. Against this backdrop, H&P produced solid quarterly operating results and maintained FlexRig super-spec utilization close to 90% during the quarter.
“Our expectation of seeing the bottom of the Company’s rig count during the quarter turned out to be premature as the full effect of the industry’s emphasis on disciplined capital spending continues to reverberate through the oil field services sector. As such, H&P exited the quarter in the U.S. with 214 active rigs, which was slightly below the low end of our guidance range. We are reluctant to predict another bottom and see further softening during our fourth fiscal quarter as our guidance would indicate. That said, the U.S. land industry super-spec utilization is close to 90%, and pricing remains firm for the best-in-class fleet.
“We believe this market environment, with its renewed emphasis on spending discipline and returns, is ideal for demonstrating the benefits of H&P’s software solutions and the meaningful impact these technologies have on well economics through enhanced wellbore quality and placement. AutoSlide, H&P’s drilling automation technology, has been deployed commercially in four U.S. shale basins; the Midland, the Eagle Ford, the Scoop/Stack and the Bakken. The Company anticipates introducing this technology to the Delaware Basin later this fiscal year. Additionally, the adoption of our FlexApps continues as customers see the value of these technologies as demonstrated by their requests to use them on non-H&P rigs. Our preparation to respond to this type of demand includes migrating our FlexApp offerings into our H&P Technologies (HPT) business segment and developing rig-neutral solutions to operate the software on non-H&P rigs.
“Our leadership position in the U.S. unconventional basins with FlexRigs and software solutions is allowing us to gain more traction in international markets. The Company saw a pick-up in activity in Bahrain and now has two active rigs. Last quarter we announced a contract to deliver our first super-spec rig into Argentina, and we expect it to commence operations in the fourth fiscal quarter. An additional letter of intent was signed to send a second super-spec FlexRig from the U.S. to Argentina to drill in the Vaca Muerta basin.”
Vice President and CFO Mark Smith also commented, “Despite the lower than expected activity in the U.S. during the quarter, H&P still performed well, generating $250 million in cash flow from operations. During the quarter, we also concluded an extensive evaluation of our Flex4 rig fleet and the expected future utilization of the related drilling equipment and spares on hand. This assessment resulted in downsizing the FlexRig4 fleet and non-cash impairment charges of approximately $225 million.
"It is important to point out three considerations regarding our Flex4 fleet. First, the Flex4 designed rigs are not currently economical candidates for upgrades or conversions to super-spec. Second, H&P started building these rigs in 2005 and has already received its full investment payback as well as generated excess returns over our internal hurdle rate on the Flex4 fleet. Third, over the next few quarters we anticipate realizing over $1.5 million or roughly $25-50 per revenue day in permanent cash cost savings resulting from the reduced costs associated with the decommissioned FlexRig4s as they are removed from the H&P fleet.
"We are pleased with H&P’s cash flow generation this quarter driven by healthy pricing levels and contractual terms as well as improvements in working capital management. Looking forward, our strong financial position and operating cash flow generation combined with our capex discipline, sets the Company up to deliver high levels of free cash flows.”
John Lindsay concluded, “H&P remains well positioned with the largest fleet of super-spec rigs and software solutions that provide improved wellbore quality and placement to deliver economic value. We believe we have the people, the rig fleet and the technology solutions to provide superior value for our customers and to achieve mutual, long-term success in this changing industry climate."
Operating Segment Results for the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2019
 
U.S. Land Operations:
Segment operating income decreased by $244.3 million to a loss of $138.2 million sequentially.  The decrease in operating results was primarily attributable to the impairment of drilling equipment and spares mainly driven by the downsizing of the Flex4 rig fleet, sequential decreases in revenue days and the adjusted average rig margin per day.  The number of quarterly revenue days decreased sequentially by approximately 7%. 

Adjusted average rig revenue per day improved by $498 to $26,122(1) largely due to increased contributions from FlexApps and a slight increase in the average dayrate during the quarter.

News Release
July 24, 2019


The adjusted average rig expense per day increased sequentially by $667 to $14,862(1) as the quarter was impacted by unfavorable adjustments to self-insurance expenses compared to the prior quarter that benefited from favorable adjustments to self-insurance expenses. Corresponding adjusted average rig margin per day decreased $169 to $11,260(1). 

The segment’s depreciation expense for the quarter includes non-cash charges of $2.1 million for abandonments and accelerated depreciation of used drilling rig components related to rig upgrades, compared to similar non-cash charges of $5.3 million during the second fiscal quarter of 2019.
 
International Land Operations:
Segment operating income decreased by $13.0 million to a loss of $5.0 million sequentially.  The decrease in operating income was primarily attributable to an impairment of drilling equipment and spares driven by the downsizing of the Flex4 rig fleet, sequential decreases in revenue days, and start-up costs for rigs in Argentina and Bahrain.  Revenue days decreased during the quarter by 3% to 1,510 while the adjusted average rig margin per day decreased by $3,957 to $7,904(1).

Offshore Operations:
Segment operating income increased by $0.5 million to $5.1 million sequentially.  The number of quarterly revenue days on H&P-owned platform rigs increased sequentially by approximately 1%, while the average rig margin per day increased sequentially by $7,001 to $12,421 primarily due to higher margin work during the quarter. Segment operating income from management contracts on customer-owned platform rigs contributed approximately $2.0 million, compared to approximately $4.7 million during the prior quarter.
 
H&P Technologies:
The segment had an operating loss of $8.8 million this quarter as compared to an operating loss of $7.9 million during the previous quarter.  The $0.9 million sequential increase in the operating loss was due primarily to lower revenues associated with the lower industry rig count. 
 
Operational Outlook for the Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2019
 
U.S. Land Operations:

•
Quarterly revenue days expected to decrease by approximately 5%-6% sequentially representing a roughly 6%-7% decrease in the average number of active rigs; we expect to exit the quarter at between 193-203 active rigs

•
Average rig revenue per day expected to be down slightly to between $25,250-$25,750 (excluding any impact from early termination revenue) with the primary cause of the decline relating to FlexApps now being included in HPT revenues in the fourth fiscal quarter

•
Average rig expense per day expected to be between $14,350-$14,850

•
We expect to upgrade 1-2 FlexRigs to walking super-spec capabilities during the quarter
 
International Land Operations:

•
Quarterly revenue days expected to increase slightly, representing an average rig count of 17-18 rigs for the quarter

•
Average rig margin per day expected to be flat at $7,500-$8,500 due to rig start-up and mobilization costs

•
Management contracts expected to generate approximately $2 million in operating income
 
HP Technologies:

•
Depreciation is now expected to be approximately $565 million, inclusive of abandonment and accelerated depreciation charges estimated at approximately $15 million.

Segment operating income for all segments is a non-GAAP financial measure of the Company’s performance, as it excludes general and administrative expenses, corporate depreciation, income from asset sales, and other corporate income and expense. The Company considers segment operating income to be an important supplemental measure of operating performance for presenting trends in the Company’s core businesses. This measure is used by the Company to facilitate period-to-period comparisons in operating performance of the Company’s reportable segments in the aggregate by eliminating items that affect comparability between periods. The Company believes that segment operating income is useful to investors because it provides a means to evaluate the operating performance of the segments and the Company on an ongoing basis using criteria that are used by our internal decision makers. Additionally, it highlights operating trends and aids analytical comparisons. However, segment operating income has limitations and should not be used as an alternative to operating income or loss, a performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP, as it excludes certain costs that may affect the Company’s operating performance in future periods.

“As Adjusted” –  Effective October 1, 2018, we implemented organizational changes, consistent with the manner in which our chief operating decision maker evaluates performance and allocates resources. Certain operations previously reported in “other” within our segment disclosures are now managed and presented within the new H&P Technologies reportable segment.  All segment disclosures have been recast for these segment changes.  Additionally, effective October 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits – (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.  Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019 have been adjusted to reflect changes that were applied retrospectively from that adoption.
