Nabors Announces Second Quarter 2024 Results

PR Newswire

HAMILTON, Bermuda, July 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Nabors Industries Ltd. ("Nabors" or the "Company") (NYSE: NBR) today reported second quarter 2024 operating revenues of $735 million, compared to operating revenues of $734 million in the first quarter. The net loss attributable to Nabors shareholders for the quarter was $32 million, compared to a net loss of $34 million in the first quarter. This equates to a loss of $4.29 per diluted share, compared to a loss per diluted share of $4.54 in the first quarter. Second quarter adjusted EBITDA was $218 million, compared to $221 million in the previous quarter.

Highlights

  • Nabors Lower 48 rigs continued to set the standard for performance on challenging wells. A major operator in the Delaware Basin drilled its fastest four-mile lateral, utilizing a Nabors PACE®-X rig and a package of NDS technology. A second large operator, in the Eagle Ford, drilled a single-run, four-mile lateral in 14 days, using a Nabors PACE®-M1000 rig.
  • A large operator in the Bakken committed to Nabors' full automation suite across all of its rigs, including SmartDRILL™ and SmartSLIDE®. With these installations, NDS will reach record penetration of its automated directional drilling solution on Nabors rigs.
  • A major operator committed funding to support the next generation of Nabors' RZR red zone robotics drillfloor automation module. This includes an installation on one of this client's rigs in the Permian, and the opportunity to scale up from there.
  • Kuwait Oil Company formally awarded multiyear contracts for three high-specification rigs. The Company plans to deploy existing in-country rigs for this opportunity.

Anthony G. Petrello, Nabors Chairman, CEO and President, commented, "Our second quarter operating results were better than we expected. This performance was driven by growth and higher average daily margins in our International Drilling segment, as well as stronger performance in our Drilling Solutions and Rig Technologies segments.

"Rig count continued to grow in our International segment, as we started up previously awarded rigs. With a substantial number of additional rig awards already in hand, across the Middle East and Latin America, we have a well-defined trajectory for international expansion over the next couple of years. We have scheduled 19 deployments over the next 18 months. We also have identified additional opportunities that could extend this growth path.

"Stable pricing supported our results in the Lower 48 market. Our average rig count decreased somewhat compared to the prior quarter, essentially in line with our expectation. Activity declines in the Northeast and South Texas were partially offset by increases in North Dakota and our Western region. Results in our Drilling Solutions segment were above our target, reflecting growth in our International markets as well as on third party rigs in the U.S."

Segment Results

The U.S. Drilling segment reported second quarter adjusted EBITDA of $114.0 million, compared to $120.4 million in the first quarter. Nabors' second quarter Lower 48 average rig count totaled 69, versus 72 in the first quarter. Daily adjusted gross margin in that market averaged $15,600, down 2% as compared to the prior quarter.

International Drilling adjusted EBITDA totaled $106.4 million, compared to $102.5 million in the first quarter. Average rig count increased to 84 from 81, driven by rig additions in Algeria and Saudi Arabia. Daily adjusted gross margin for the second quarter averaged $16,050, essentially in line with the prior quarter.

Drilling Solutions adjusted EBITDA was $32.5 million, compared to $31.8 million in the first quarter. This increase was essentially driven by revenue growth on third-party Lower 48 and international rigs of 22% and 18%, respectively.

In Rig Technologies, adjusted EBITDA increased to $7.3 million, versus $6.8 million in the first quarter. The increase was spread across business lines including capital equipment, OEM repair, and energy transition.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Adjusted free cash flow was $57 million in the second quarter. Capital expenditures totaled $138 million, which included $56 million supporting the newbuilds in Saudi Arabia. This compares to $112 million in the first quarter, including $35 million supporting the newbuilds.

William Restrepo, Nabors CFO, stated, "Our overall results exceeded our outlook. The emerging international market strength we saw last year is now manifesting in rig additions for our International drilling segment. We expect our pipeline of scheduled international deployments to drive an increase in rig count of at least 20% from the end of 2023 through the end of 2025. This includes rigs in Algeria, Argentina, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia. On top of these, we have multiple attractive opportunities. Our approach to these opportunities will remain disciplined, ensuring they are consistent with our free cash flow commitments over the next few years.

"In the U.S., our Lower 48 results were supported by continued high utilization of high-spec rigs and strong pricing. As we look ahead, we see opportunities to add rigs and offset some of the attrition in the natural gas focused markets. We expect our rig count to increase moderately for the balance of the year.

"We achieved significant milestones to solidify our capital structure. During the second quarter, we increased the amount on our revolving credit facility and extended it until 2029. More recently, we placed $550 million of notes due in 2031. With these proceeds, we intend to retire the similar notes due in 2026. Once completed, our next maturity comes in mid-2027.

"The strong results drove our cash generation. Adjusted free cash flow for the first half of the year reached $65 million. This performance supports our previous full-year 2024 adjusted free cash flow target of $100-$200 million."

Outlook

Nabors expects the following metrics for the third quarter of 2024:

U.S. Drilling               

  • Lower 48 average rig count of approximately 70 rigs
  • Lower 48 daily adjusted gross margin of $15,100-$15,200
  • Alaska and Gulf of Mexico combined adjusted EBITDA of approximately $20 million

International

  • Average rig count up by approximately one rig versus the second quarter average
  • Daily adjusted gross margin of $16,200-$16,300

Drilling Solutions

  • Adjusted EBITDA up sequentially by approximately 6%

Rig Technologies

  • Adjusted EBITDA up sequentially by approximately $1.5 million

Capital Expenditures

  • Capital expenditures of $190-$200 million, with $80-$85 million for the newbuilds in Saudi Arabia
  • Full-year capital expenditures of approximately $590 million, including funding for the recent rig awards

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

  • Full-year adjusted free cash flow of $100-$200 million

Mr. Petrello concluded, "These results, and our outlook, illustrate the success of our strategy. We remain committed to deploying the global drilling industry's leading   technology. The growing adoption of these innovations by our client base across the globe gives us confidence that we are on the right track. And as I've stated before, we expect the extraordinary strength of the international markets to continue driving our growth over the coming years."

Forward-looking Statements

The information included in this press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, as disclosed by Nabors from time to time in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result of these factors, Nabors' actual results may differ materially from those indicated or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release reflect management's estimates and beliefs as of the date of this press release. Nabors does not undertake to update these forward-looking statements. 

Non-GAAP Disclaimer

This press release presents certain "non-GAAP" financial measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Adjusted operating income (loss) represents income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, interest expense, investment income (loss), and other, net. Adjusted EBITDA is computed similarly, but also excludes depreciation and amortization expenses. In addition, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss) exclude certain cash expenses that the Company is obligated to make. Net debt is calculated as total debt minus the sum of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Adjusted free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sales of assets. Management believes that adjusted free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company 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 for future growth, that could be available for paying down debt or other financing cash flows, such as dividends to shareholders. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure is useful information to investors when comparing our cash flows with the cash flows of other companies.

Each of these non-GAAP measures has limitations and therefore should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the amounts reported in accordance with GAAP. However, management evaluates the performance of its operating segments and the consolidated Company based on several criteria, including Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income (loss), net debt, and adjusted free cash flow, because it believes that these financial measures accurately reflect the Company's ongoing profitability and performance. Securities analysts and investors also use these measures as some of the metrics on which they analyze the Company's performance. Other companies in this industry may compute these measures differently. Reconciliations of consolidated adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss) to income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, net debt to total debt, and adjusted free cash flow to net cash provided by operations, which are their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures, are included in the tables at the end of this press release. We do not provide a forward-looking reconciliation of our outlook for Segment Adjusted EBITDA, Segment Gross Margin or Adjusted Free Cash Flow, as the amount and significance of items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures cannot be estimated at this time without unreasonable efforts. These special items could be meaningful.

(3)

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit), investment income (loss), interest expense, other, net

and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute

for the amounts reported in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted EBITDA excludes certain cash expenses that the Company is

obligated to make. However, management evaluates the performance of its operating segments and the consolidated Company based on

several criteria, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss), because it believes that these financial measures accurately

reflect the Company's ongoing profitability and performance.  Securities analysts and investors use this measure as one of the metrics on

which they analyze the Company's performance.  Other companies in this industry may compute these measures differently.  A reconciliation

of this non-GAAP measure to net income (loss), which is the most closely comparable GAAP measure, is provided in the table set forth

immediately following the heading "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Net Income (Loss)".













(4)

Represents the elimination of inter-segment transactions and unallocated corporate expenses.

















(5)

Adjusted operating income (loss) represents net income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit), investment income (loss), interest expense

and other, net. Adjusted operating income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the

(6)

Rig revenue days represents the number of days the Company's rigs are contracted and performing under a contract during the period.  These

would typically include days in which operating, standby and move revenue is earned.













(7)

Average rigs working represents a measure of the average number of rigs operating during a given period.  For example, one rig operating 45

days during a quarter represents approximately 0.5 average rigs working for the quarter.  On an annual period, one rig operating 182.5 days

represents approximately 0.5 average rigs working for the year.  Average rigs working can also be calculated as rig revenue days during the

period divided by the number of calendar days in the period.













(8)

Daily rig revenue represents operating revenue, divided by the total number of revenue days during the quarter.   

















(9)

Daily adjusted gross margin represents operating revenue less direct costs, divided by the total number of rig revenue days during the quarter.   

















(10)

The U.S. Drilling segment includes the Lower 48, Alaska, and Gulf of Mexico operating areas.

(1) Adjusted operating income (loss) represents net income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit), investment income (loss), interest expense, and other, net. Adjusted

operating income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the amounts reported in accordance with GAAP. In addition,

adjusted operating income (loss) excludes certain cash expenses that the Company is obligated to make. However, management evaluates the performance of its operating

segments and the consolidated Company based on several criteria, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss), because it believes that these financial

measures accurately reflect the Company's ongoing profitability and performance.  Securities analysts and investors use this measure as one of the metrics on which they

analyze the Company's performance.  Other companies in this industry may compute these measures differently.

Adjusted free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sales of assets.

Management believes that adjusted free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company 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 for future growth, that could be available for paying down debt

or other financing cash flows, such as dividends to shareholders.  Adjusted free cash flow does not represent the 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 flow from operations reported in accordance with GAAP.
