HELMERICH & PAYNE, INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Operating and Financial Highlights for the Quarter Ended June 30th, 2025
•The Company realized a consolidated net loss of $(163) million, or $(1.64) per share, which includes the impact of a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $173 million. Adjusted for this and other non-recurring one-time items, earnings were $22 million, or $0.22 per share.
•North America Solutions (NAS) segment reported operating income of $158 million during the quarter compared to $152 million during the prior quarter. NAS maintained industry-leading direct margins(1) of $266 million during the quarter, yielding an associated margin(1) per day of $19,860.
•International Solutions segment realized an operating loss of $(167) million during the quarter, the first to include the full impact of our acquisition of KCA Deutag (KCAD), compared to an operating loss of $(35) million in the prior quarter. These results include a one-time goodwill impairment of $(128) million. However, International Solutions exceeded fiscal second quarter guidance midpoint expectations with direct margins(1) of approximately $34 million.
•The Company realized consolidated adjusted EBITDA(2) of $268 million.
•All eight unconventional FlexRigs in Saudi Arabia have now commenced operations with margins improving as we quickly integrate operations with KCAD.
•Significant progress was made toward our goal of capturing synergies from the KCAD transaction and reducing the combined company cost structure by $50-$75 million, with approximately $50 million identified to date, and additional progress expected.
•As of the end of July, the Company has repaid $120 million on its existing $400 million term loan and now expects to repay a total of $200 million by the end of calendar year 2025, up from the prior expectation of $175 million.
•Approximately $25 million returned to shareholders as part of the Company’s ongoing dividend program.

Management Commentary
“I am pleased with our fiscal third quarter operating results despite a challenging macro environment. Total direct margin(1) across our three operating segments was at the high end of our guidance ranges, reflecting the hard work from our operations and sales teams to deliver collaborative solutions with customers,” commented President and CEO John Lindsay.
“In NAS, our market share and financial performance remain the highest among our drilling peers, underscoring H&P’s strong customer partnerships and focus on sustainable economic returns. Our resilient direct margins reflect the incorporation of our operational and technical performance with a dynamic, customer-centric commercial model and the continued use of mutually beneficial solutions such as our innovative performance contracts. While we expect a slight reduction in activity during our fiscal fourth quarter, we’re confident our NAS segment will continue to deliver market-leading results and solutions for our customers.
“Internationally, our expanded geographic footprint positions us as the premier land drilling company across the globe. We operate in the most prolific oil and gas producing regions in the world. In Saudi Arabia, our FlexRig unconventional startup has gained momentum, and we’re enthusiastic about showcasing our combined capabilities throughout our global operations. Meanwhile, our Offshore Solutions segment continues to generate steady cash flows, reflecting H&P’s position as the leading global offshore operation and platform maintenance provider in the world."
Senior Vice President and CFO Kevin Vann also commented, "I am pleased with the progress being made to reduce our cost structure by $50-$75 million going forward. To date, we have identified approximately $50 million and additional progress is expected.
“As reflected in our quarterly results, we recorded an impairment to the goodwill recognized at the close of the KCAD acquisition. Although required by accounting guidelines, the impairment does not represent how we feel about the value we expect to capture with the KCAD assets over the long haul.
“We have now repaid $120 million on the $400 million two-year term loan and expect to repay a total of approximately $200 million by end of calendar 2025, up from prior expectations of $175 million. H&P maintains an investment-grade credit rating, ended the quarter with $187 million of cash and short-term investments, and has an undrawn $950 million credit facility. This strong financial foundation supports our growing operations, funds our dividend, and enables continued deleveraging.”
John Lindsay concluded, "Oil and natural gas will remain central to the global energy landscape, and we are optimistic about the sector's long-term prospects. Economic growth will demand more drilling, and H&P's global scale, innovative commercial models, and advanced technology will continue to differentiate the Company moving forward. We’re confident our employees, safety-focused culture, mix of conventional and unconventional assets, and digital solutions will continue to deliver consistent results for years to come.”

Operating Segment Results for the Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2025
North America Solutions: Realized operating income of $158 million, compared to $152 million during the previous quarter, representing an increase of $6 million. Direct margin(1) exceeded the guidance range, totaling approximately $266 million, which was approximately flat with the previous quarter despite slightly lower average rig activity. On a per day basis, direct margin was approximately $19,860 with an average of 147 rigs running. Approximately 50% of the NAS active rigs utilized performance contracts during the quarter, and the performance model remains an integral and differentiating component of H&P’s overall strategy.
International Solutions: This segment had operating loss of $(167) million, compared to a loss of approximately $(35) million during the previous quarter. Not including the impairment of $(128) million, the segment’s operating loss was $(38) million. This was the first quarter with the full impact of operations from our acquisition of KCA Deutag. Without the non-cash impairment of goodwill, direct margin(1) totaled approximately $34 million compared to approximately $27 million during the previous quarter. Importantly, during the third fiscal quarter, the last of eight exported FlexRigs commenced operations in Saudi Arabia, marking an important step in establishing our unconventional drilling presence within the region.
Offshore Solutions: Contributed operating income of approximately $9 million, compared to approximately $17 million during the previous quarter, representing a decrease of $8 million. Direct margin(1) totaled approximately $23 million compared to approximately $26 million in the previous quarter. The inclusion of the legacy KCAD offshore business has added scale and geographic expansion to our offshore segment. We now have the benefit of a larger, blue-chip customer base, low capital intensity, and steady cash flow from our offshore operations.
Select Items (3) Included in Net Income per Diluted Share
Third quarter of fiscal year 2025 net loss of $(1.64) per diluted share included a net impact $(1.86) per share in after-tax losses comprised of the following:

•$(0.04) of after-tax losses related to restructuring charges

Forward-Looking Statements
This release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and such statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this release, including, without limitation, outlook for the fourth fiscal quarter and fiscal 2025, statements regarding the anticipated benefits (including synergies and cash flow) of the acquisition and integration of KCA Deutag, the anticipated impact of the acquisition of KCA Deutag on the Company's business and future financial and operating results, the anticipated timing of expected synergies, cost savings and returns from the acquisition of KCA Deutag, the Company’s business strategy, future financial position, operations outlook, future cash flow, future use of generated cash flow, dividend amounts and timing, amounts of any future dividends, investments, active rig count projections, projected costs and plans, objectives of management for future operations, contract terms, financing and funding, debt reduction plans, capex spending and budgets, outlook for domestic and international markets, future commodity prices, and future customer activity and relationships are forward-looking statements. For information regarding risks and uncertainties associated with the Company’s business, please refer to the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections and other disclosures in the Company’s SEC filings, including but not limited to its annual report on Form 10‑K and quarterly reports on Form 10‑Q. As a result of these factors, Helmerich & Payne, Inc.’s actual results may differ materially from those indicated or implied by such forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned not to put undue reliance on such statements. We undertake no duty to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, changes in internal estimates, expectations or otherwise, except as required under applicable securities laws.
Helmerich & Payne uses its Investor Relations website as a channel of distribution for material company information. Such information is routinely posted and accessible on its Investor Relations website at www.hpinc.com. Information on our website is not part of this release.
Note Regarding Trademarks. Helmerich & Payne, Inc. owns or has rights to the use of trademarks, service marks and trade names that it uses in conjunction with the operation of its business. Some of the trademarks that appear in this release or otherwise used by H&P include FlexRig, which may be registered or trademarked in the United States and other jurisdictions.
(1) Direct margin, which is considered a non-GAAP metric, is defined as operating revenues (less reimbursements) less direct operating expenses (less reimbursements) and is included as a supplemental disclosure. We believe it is useful in assessing and understanding our current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time. See Non-GAAP Measurements for a reconciliation of segment operating income(loss) to direct margin. Expected direct margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 is provided on a non-GAAP basis only because certain information necessary to calculate the most comparable GAAP measure is unavailable due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the future financial statement impact of certain items. Therefore, as a result of the uncertainty and variability of the nature and amount of future items and adjustments, which could be significant, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of expected direct margin to the most comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort.

August 6, 2025
(2) Adjusted EBITDA is considered to be a non-GAAP metric. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on asset sales, other income and expense - which includes interest income and interest expense, and excludes the impact of 'select items' which management defines as certain items that do not reflect the ongoing performance of our core business operations. Adjusted EBITDA is included as supplemental disclosure as management uses it to assess and understand current operational performance, especially in analyzing historical trends which are used in forecasting future period results. For this reason, we believe this measure will be useful to information to investors. The presence of non-GAAP metrics is not intended to suggest that such measures should be considered as a substitute for certain GAAP metrics and, given that not all companies define Adjusted EBITDA the same way, this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics disclosed by other companies. See Non-GAAP Measurements for a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA.
(3) Select items are considered non-GAAP metrics and are included as a supplemental disclosure as the Company believes identifying and excluding select items is useful in assessing and understanding current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time involving previous and subsequent periods and/or forecasting future periods results. Select items are excluded as they are deemed to be outside the Company's core business operations. See Non-GAAP Measurements.
(4) Does not include 27 rigs that have either suspended operations or have been notified to suspend operations in Saudi Arabia.

(1)These operating metrics and financial data, including average active rigs, are provided to allow investors to analyze the various components of segment financial results in terms of activity, utilization and other key results. Management uses these metrics to analyze historical segment financial results and as the key inputs for forecasting and budgeting segment financial results.
(2)Direct margin, which is considered a non-GAAP metric, is defined as operating revenues (less reimbursements) less direct operating expenses (less reimbursements) and is included as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it is useful in assessing and understanding our current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time. See — Non-GAAP Measurements below for a reconciliation of segment operating income (loss) to direct margin.
(3)Defined as the number of contractual days we recognized revenue for during the period.
(4)Active rigs generate revenue for the Company; accordingly, 'average active rigs' represents the average number of rigs generating revenue during the applicable time period. This metric is calculated by dividing revenue days by total days in the applicable period (i.e. 91 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, 90 days for the three months ended March 31, 2025, 273 days for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 274 days for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024.)
(5)Defined as the number of rigs generating revenue at the applicable end date of the time period.

Segment operating income (loss) for all segments is a non-GAAP financial measure of the Company’s performance, as it excludes gain on reimbursement of drilling equipment, other gain on sale of assets, corporate selling, general and administrative costs, corporate depreciation, corporate acquisition transaction costs, corporate asset impairment charges, and corporate restructuring charges. The Company considers segment operating income (loss) 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 (loss) 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 (loss) 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.
The following table reconciles operating income per the information above to income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes as reported on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION OF DIRECT MARGIN
Direct margin is considered a non-GAAP metric. We define "direct margin" as operating revenues (less reimbursements) less direct operating expenses (less reimbursements). Direct margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it is useful in assessing and understanding our current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time. Direct margin is not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should therefore be considered only as supplemental to such GAAP financial measures.
The following table reconciles direct margin to segment operating income (loss), which we believe is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that is most directly comparable to direct margin.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA and 'Select Items' are considered to be non-GAAP metrics. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on asset sales, other income and expense - which includes interest income and interest expense, and excludes the impact of 'select items' which management defines as certain items that do not reflect the ongoing performance of our core business operations. These metrics are included as supplemental disclosures as management uses them to assess and understand current operational performance, especially in analyzing historical trends which are used in forecasting future period results. For this reason, we believe this measure will be useful to information to investors. The presence of non-GAAP metrics is not intended to suggest that such measures should be considered as a substitute for certain GAAP metrics and, given that not all companies define Adjusted EBITDA the same way, this financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled metrics disclosed by other companies.
