- H&P’s spot pricing in the U.S. land market increased by approximately 11% during the quarter

TULSA, Okla., July 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (NYSE:HP) reported a net loss of $8 million or $(0.08) per diluted share from operating revenues of $649 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, compared to a net loss of $12 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, on revenues of $577 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. The net losses per diluted share for the third and second fiscal quarters include $(0.07) and $(0.07), respectively, of after-tax losses comprised of select items(2). Net cash provided by operating activities was $161 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $125 million for the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2018.
President and CEO John Lindsay commented, “The Company achieved several operational highlights during the quarter in the midst of a super-charged market where we continue to see robust demand for additional FlexRigs and our industry-leading technology. Moreover, the increase in dayrates speaks to the high value our teams provide and the strong partnerships we continue to nurture with our customers.
“Our U.S. Land operations benefitted from higher activity and pricing as we continued to capitalize on our superior position in the sold-out super-spec market. We have upgraded 38 FlexRigs to super-spec during the first nine months of the fiscal year bringing the total to 191 super-spec FlexRigs in our U.S. land fleet. The market is tight for super-spec FlexRigs, and dayrate improvements have accelerated with the average spot dayrate increasing 11% during the quarter. Offsetting these benefits during the quarter however, were unexpected one-time costs which led to a slight decline in our U.S. Land margins.
“Permian bottleneck headlines have clouded the near-term outlook; however, we continue to experience strong demand and are adding rigs accordingly. Oil prices have remained strong during the quarter and we’re optimistic that E&P spending in 2018 is not yet fully reflecting the inherent potential in these higher than expected oil prices or the prospects for continued momentum into 2019. In addition to the Permian growth, we are seeing improved rig activity in the Eagle Ford, the SCOOP/STACK play in Oklahoma as well as the Bakken.
“Higher crude oil prices positively impacted our international and offshore businesses as additional rigs were contracted during the quarter. We are actively pursuing opportunities in these segments.
“An increasing number of customers are realizing the long-term value proposition of the services provided by our new technology subsidiaries, MOTIVE® Drilling Technologies, Inc. (“Motive”) and Magnetic Variation Services, LLC (“MagVAR”). Driven by industry trends toward longer laterals and tighter well spacing, both companies are growing activity at impressive rates. We believe these technologies are leading edge, create additional opportunities to utilize our digital FlexRig platform, and provide an important step in the evolution of drilling automation.”
Operating Segment Results for the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2018
U.S. Land Operations:
Segment operating income increased by $7.3 million to $34.3 million sequentially. The increase in operating results was primarily driven by sequential increases in both quarterly revenue days and average rig revenue per day. The number of quarterly revenue days increased sequentially by approximately 7%. Adjusted average rig revenue per day increased by $689 to $23,400(3) as pricing continued to improve throughout the quarter.
The average rig expense per day increased sequentially by $848 to $14,934 as the third fiscal quarter average rig expense was adversely impacted by the wage increase in the Permian mentioned in our last quarter’s earnings call and higher pass-through and other one-time costs. Corresponding adjusted average rig margin per day declined roughly 2% to $8,466(3).
The segment’s depreciation expense for the quarter includes non-cash charges of $7.0 million for abandonments of used drilling rig components related to rig upgrades, compared to similar non-cash charges of $7.1 million during the second fiscal quarter of 2018.
Offshore Operations:
Segment operating income decreased by $1.7 million to $3.8 million sequentially. The number of quarterly revenue days on H&P-owned platform rigs increased sequentially by approximately 28%, while the average rig margin per day decreased sequentially by $4,818 to $4,686 primarily due to higher than anticipated self-insurance expenses and start-up costs associated with a rig that returned to work during the quarter. Management contracts on customer-owned platform rigs contributed approximately $4.8 million to the segment’s operating income, compared to approximately $5.1 million during the prior quarter.
International Land Operations:
The segment had operating income of $4.3 million this quarter as compared to an operating loss of $0.7 million during the previous quarter. The $5.0 million sequential increase in operating income was primarily attributable to sequentially higher revenue days and average rig revenue per day. Revenue days increased during the quarter by 15% to 1,762 driven by additional rigs returning to work in Colombia. The average rig margin per day increased by $1,461 to $9,994.
Operational Outlook for the Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2018
U.S. Land Operations:
- Quarterly revenue days expected to increase by approximately 6% sequentially, representing an average rig count of approximately 230 rigs for the quarter
- Average rig revenue per day expected to be roughly $24,000 (excluding any impact from early termination revenue)
- Average rig expense per day expected to be roughly $14,700
Offshore Operations:
- Quarterly revenue days expected to decrease by approximately 4% sequentially, representing an average rig count of 6 rigs for the quarter
- Average rig margin per day expected to be approximately $13,000
- Management contracts expected to generate approximately $3 to $4 million in operating income
International Land Operations:
- Quarterly revenue days expected to increase by approximately 3% sequentially, representing an average rig count of 19-20 rigs for the quarter
- Average rig margin per day expected to be roughly $9,000
Other Estimates for Fiscal 2018
- Capital expenditures are now expected to be approximately $450 million.
- General and administrative expenses for fiscal 2018 are now expected to be approximately $200 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.
The following table reconciles operating income (loss) per the information above to income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes as reported on the Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands).
