Management Commentary
“In the third quarter, our teams successfully navigated a challenging environment, and we are executing our plan that concentrates on optimizing our business in the areas that we can control,” said Andy Hendricks, Chief Executive Officer. “Operationally, our teams are performing well, and we continue to enhance our commercial strategy through additional integration and performance-based agreements, while at the same time we are lowering our cost structure. Margin performance across Patterson-UTI is outpacing what we have historically seen in periods of activity moderation. We think this outperformance is a function of the focus and execution of the teams in each of our segments and the technology edge that we are using to deliver better drilling and completion results for our customers. We expect this relative margin resiliency to continue.”
“U.S. activity levels stabilized towards the end of the third quarter, and while we do expect normal seasonality in completion activity during the fourth quarter, we think our activity should remain relatively steady into 2026,” continued Mr. Hendricks. “We believe the full impact of the moderation of activity over the past six months is yet to be fully reflected in U.S. oil production, and we believe current industry activity is already below levels needed to hold U.S. oil production steady. Any further rig count declines would likely result in additional pressure on U.S. oil production volumes for an extended period, which could negatively impact global oil supply in 2026. On natural gas, we continue to see a strengthening outlook as physical LNG takeaway begins to come into focus, which we expect to result in higher natural gas drilling and completion activity in 2026.”
“We continue to deliver on the cash generation potential of our company, and we expect the fourth quarter will be our strongest free cash flow generating quarter of the year,” said Andy Smith, Chief Financial Officer. “Our low leverage and strong liquidity give us significant flexibility in capital allocation going forward, and we will continue to deploy capital only towards opportunities we believe will deliver high long-term returns for our shareholders, including the option to further accelerate our share repurchase program.”
Drilling Services
During the third quarter, our Drilling Services segment revenue totaled $380 million. Drilling Services adjusted gross profit was $134 million during the quarter. Our U.S. Contract Drilling operating days totaled 8,737, with an average of 95 rigs working in the third quarter.
Activity in our U.S. Contract Drilling business was steady outside the Permian Basin compared to the second quarter, with the sequential change in activity a function of moderating industry demand in the Permian Basin. Additionally, our Directional Drilling business performance was strong, benefitting from high service quality and additional integrated offerings with both our drilling rigs and drill bits.
Completion Services
Third quarter Completion Services revenue totaled $705 million, with adjusted gross profit of $111 million. Our commercial team effectively managed our frac schedule during the quarter, with steady overall activity compared to the second quarter. Additionally, our operational execution was very strong, with our teams making great strides in efficiency and benefiting from some cost reduction activities in the segment during the first half of the year. Pricing per horsepower hour was steady compared to the second quarter, with lower revenue from low margin sand and chemical product sales.
Our fleet of Emerald™ 100% natural gas-powered assets remains in high demand with strong operational and financial performance. Towards the end of the third quarter, we accepted delivery of our first commercial direct-drive hydraulic fracturing fleet, which is scheduled to begin long-term dedicated work in the fourth quarter.
After successful introduction in the third quarter, we continue to deploy our Vertex™ Automated Controls across all pumping fleets, with projection for full deployment by year-end. This will allow us to implement closed loop automation for all pump types to improve our operating efficiency and asset management, while delivering optimized completion designs for our customers based on real-time surface measurements.
Drilling Products
Third quarter Drilling Products revenue totaled $86 million, with adjusted gross profit of $36 million.
Performance was strong in the United States and Canada, where our sequential change in revenue again outperformed the change in industry activity. We reached another company record for U.S. revenue per U.S. industry rig, with the segment improving on this metric by approximately 40% since we acquired Ulterra in 2023. International revenue was down slightly, the result of lower drilling activity in Saudi Arabia, which is our largest international market.
Segment margins were impacted by higher than normal bit repair expense early in the quarter, although the segment did see margins return closer to historical levels by the end of the quarter.
Other
During the third quarter, Other revenue totaled $5 million, with adjusted gross profit totaling $2 million.
Other Operating Expenses
Other Operating Expenses for the quarter totaled $23 million, of which $20 million was associated with the accrual of expenses associated with personal injury-related claims for incidents that occurred several years ago, partially offset by a favorable contract dispute resolution.
Outlook
Within the Drilling Services segment for the fourth quarter, we expect our average rig count will be similar to the third quarter, which reflects activity remaining relatively steady, compared to our current rig count, through the end of the year. We expect adjusted gross profit within the Drilling Services segment to be down approximately 5% from the third quarter.
In our Completion Services segment for the fourth quarter, we expect adjusted gross profit to be approximately $85 million. From an activity perspective, we expect less seasonality compared to the fourth quarter last year.
In our Drilling Products segment for the fourth quarter, we expect adjusted gross profit will improve slightly compared to the third quarter. We expect relatively steady results in the U.S. and Canada, with higher revenue and adjusted gross profit from our International business.
We expect Other adjusted gross profit in the fourth quarter to be roughly flat compared to the third quarter.
For the fourth quarter, we expect selling, general and administrative expense to be relatively steady compared to the third quarter, and we expect depreciation, depletion, amortization, and impairment expense of approximately $225 million.
We expect capital expenditures to approximate $140 million during the fourth quarter. For full-year 2025, we now expect capital expenditures to be below $600 million, before considering the benefit of $33 million in asset sales we have realized through the third quarter. For full-year 2025, our updated capital expenditure budget is lower than previously expected.

(1)Adjusted gross profit is defined as revenues less direct operating costs (excluding depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment expense, which does not include impairment of goodwill). See Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for a reconciliation of GAAP gross profit to adjusted gross profit by segment.
(2)Operational data relates to our contract drilling business. A rig is considered to be operating if it is earning revenue pursuant to a contract on a given day.
(3)Other includes our oilfield rentals business, prior to its divestiture in April 2025, and oil and natural gas working interests.

(1)Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus income tax expense (benefit), net interest expense, depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment expense, legal accruals and settlements, impairment of goodwill, and merger and integration expense. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it provides to both management and investors additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and a comparison of the results of our operations from period to period and against our peers without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income (loss). Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures of other companies.

(1)We define adjusted free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, plus proceeds from disposal of assets, including insurance recoveries. We present adjusted free cash flow as a supplemental disclosure because we believe that it is an important liquidity measure and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of the company’s ability to generate cash flow, after reinvesting in the company, that could be available for financing cash flows, such as dividend payments, share repurchases and/or repurchases of long-term indebtedness. Our computations of adjusted free cash flow may not be the same as similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted free cash flow is not intended to represent our residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, cash flows from operations reported in accordance with GAAP.
