Halliburton Announces Second Quarter Income from Continuing Operations of $0.44 Per Diluted Share, Excluding Special Items

A press release from Halliburton:

Halliburton Company (NYSE:HAL) announced today that income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2015 was $380 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, excluding special items. This compares to income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2015 of $418 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, excluding special items. Adjusted operating income was $643 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to adjusted operating income of $699 million in the first quarter of 2015. Halliburton's total revenue in the second quarter of 2015 was $5.9 billion, compared to $7.1 billion in the first quarter of 2015.
“Adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.”
Primarily as a result of the recent downturn in the energy market and its corresponding impact on the company’s business outlook, Halliburton recorded approximately $258 million, after-tax, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015, as compared to $823 million, after-tax, or $0.97 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2015, in company-wide charges related primarily to severance costs and asset write-offs. Halliburton recorded Baker Hughes acquisition-related costs of $67 million, after-tax, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015, as compared to $35 million, after-tax, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2015. Reported income from continuing operations was $55 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015, as compared to reported loss from continuing operations of $639 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2015. Reported operating income was $254 million for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to reported operating loss of $548 million for the first quarter of 2015.
In April 2015, Halliburton announced a decision to market for sale the Fixed Cutter and Roller Cone Drill Bits, Directional Drilling, and Logging-While-Drilling/Measurement-While-Drilling businesses as part of the regulatory review of the pending Baker Hughes acquisition. These assets were classified as held for sale at that time and, therefore, the corresponding depreciation and amortization expense was ceased during the second quarter of 2015, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This resulted in a positive impact to reported results of $53 million, after-tax, or $0.06 per diluted share.
“We are pleased with our second quarter results, considering the headwinds facing the industry,” said Jeff Miller, President.
“Total company revenue of $5.9 billion declined 16% sequentially, outperforming a 26% drop in the worldwide rig count. Operating income declined as a result of lower activity levels for all product lines, exacerbated by pricing declines, primarily in North America.
“In the Eastern Hemisphere, revenues declined modestly compared to the first quarter of 2015, but we saw a meaningful step up in profitability in our Europe/Africa/CIS region, due to activity improvements in Eurasia and Norway, along with higher stimulation activity and completion tools sales in both Algeria and Angola. Projects in the Middle East are moving forward, although Russia and the offshore markets remain challenged.
“In Latin America, we experienced sequential revenue and operating income declines driven by Venezuela, primarily due to the negative currency impact of the new exchange rate, as well as budget cuts throughout the region as customers are focused on cash flows.
“In North America, revenue declined 25% sequentially; significantly outperforming the 40% decline in average rig count. Pricing erosion continued during the quarter, but decremental margins were less severe than previous downturns, demonstrating that our cost reduction initiatives are helping to offset the current market challenges.
“We expect the global markets will remain transitional, and in these times, operational execution is an even more critical source of differentiation. Our financial results reflect our strong execution culture, and we remain focused on delivering reliable, best-in-class service quality for our customers,” said Miller.
“We are pleased with the progress of the proposed Baker Hughes acquisition, as evidenced by our recently announced timing agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice,” added Dave Lesar, Chairman and CEO.
“We recently received the initial round of bids on our previously announced divestitures, and are pleased with the prices and level of interest. Baker Hughes has certified compliance with the U.S. Department of Justice’s second request, and we expect to do so shortly.
“We are enthusiastic about and fully committed to closing this compelling transaction, and are confident we can achieve cost synergies of nearly $2 billion, regardless of market conditions or any cost reduction actions taken by either company to date. In anticipation of the acquisition, we continue to maintain our superior service delivery platform and other infrastructure costs in excess of current market needs. This cost was between 300-400 basis points for North America margins in the second quarter. We will continue to do this until the transaction closes, which I believe is the best decision for the long run.
“Our strategy remains consistent – we will manage costs through the downturn, while looking beyond the cycle to ensure that we will be positioned for growth when the industry recovers. We continue to invest in technology, build capital equipment, and prepare for our pending combination with Baker Hughes. Our management team has a proven track record in navigating through cycles, and we are confident that Halliburton will be best-positioned to outperform in the recovery,” concluded Lesar.
Completion and Production
Completion and Production (C&P) revenue in the second quarter of 2015 was $3.4 billion, a decrease of $802 million, or 19%, from the first quarter of 2015, primarily driven by a decline in pressure pumping activity and pricing declines for all product service lines in North America, coupled with lower activity levels in Middle East/Asia, reduced activity levels and pricing in Mexico, and the impact of the new exchange rate in Venezuela. This was partially offset by higher stimulation activity, higher completion sales, and seasonal pipelines and process activity in Europe/Africa/CIS.
C&P operating income was $313 million, which decreased $149 million, or 32%, compared to the first quarter of 2015. North America C&P operating income declined $161 million, or 69%, sequentially, primarily due to reduced activity levels and pricing adjustments for stimulation services. Latin America C&P operating income decreased $10 million, or 15%, from the first quarter of 2015, primarily as a result of reduced activity in pressure pumping services in Mexico and Venezuela. Europe/Africa/CIS C&P operating income increased $35 million, or 64%, sequentially, mainly due to increased stimulation activity and completion tools sales in Algeria and Angola, along with increased seasonal pipeline and process services activity and completion tools sales in Norway. Middle East/Asia C&P operating income fell by $13 million, or 12%, compared to the first quarter of 2015, primarily due to a decline in stimulation activity and completion tools sales.
Drilling and Evaluation

Drilling and Evaluation (D&E) revenue in the second quarter of 2015 was $2.5 billion, a decrease of $329 million, or 12%, from the first quarter of 2015. Decreased drilling activity and fluid services in North America, the impact of the new exchange rate in Venezuela, and a decline in wireline activity across all of our regions, more than offset increased software sales in Latin America and the Eastern Hemisphere.
D&E operating income was $400 million, which increased $94 million, or 31%, compared to the first quarter of 2015. All regions benefitted from the depreciation cessation on assets held for sale. North America D&E operating income increased $12 million, or 27%, sequentially, primarily due to cost reduction initiatives, partially offset by reduced fluid services activity in the United States land market. Latin America D&E operating income was flat, sequentially, as improved profitability for drilling services in Brazil was offset by lower drilling fluid product sales in Venezuela. Europe/Africa/CIS D&E operating income increased $43 million, or 139%, from the first quarter of 2015, driven by increased drilling services product sales in Russia, partially offset by reduced drilling services activity in the United Kingdom. Middle East/Asia D&E operating income increased $39 million, or 23%, sequentially, driven by activity growth for drilling services throughout the region, coupled with increased project management activity in Saudi Arabia.
Corporate and Other
During the second quarter of 2015, Halliburton incurred $67 million, after-tax, for costs related to the pending Baker Hughes acquisition.
Significant Recent Events and Achievements
  • Halliburton’s Testing and Subsea product line announced that its RezConnect™ Well Testing System received the Offshore Technology Conference 2015 Spotlight on New Technology Award. RezConnect is the industry’s first solution that offers complete wireless acoustic control of drill-stem test tools. It can provide real-time measurement and analysis during well-testing and downhole sampling operations, allowing operators to make informed decisions faster, which can reduce rig-time cost and increase asset returns.
  • Halliburton’s Completion Tools product line introduced the Illusion® dissolvable frac plug as the latest addition to Halliburton’s Unconventional Completion portfolio. This high-performance frac plug provides zonal isolation for pumpdown applications during wellbore stimulation and combines Halliburton's industry-leading frac plug designs with the most advanced dissolvable metal and rubber materials. This fully dissolvable plug helps eliminate the risk and cost associated with conventional plug removal and, upon complete dissolution, provides an entire wellbore ID for future operations.
  • On May 20, 2015, Halliburton announced it had reached an agreement with BP Exploration & Production Inc. to resolve remaining issues between the parties, including indemnities between the parties and dismissal of all claims against each other, relating to the April 20, 2010, Deepwater Horizon well incident in the Gulf of Mexico.
  • Halliburton opened its new Indonesian headquarters in Jakarta, which will serve as headquarters for all product lines in Indonesia.

(a) Management believes that operating income (loss) adjusted for impairments and other charges and Baker Hughes acquisition-related costs for the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015 is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the company's normal operating results. Management analyzes operating income without the impact of these items as an indicator of performance, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals. The adjustments remove the effects of these items. Adjusted operating income is calculated as: “As reported operating income (loss)” plus "Impairments and other charges" and "Baker Hughes acquisition-related costs."

Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share (c)   $0.44   $0.49 
(a) Management believes that income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for impairments and other charges, Baker Hughes acquisition-related costs, and Venezuela currency devaluation loss is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the company's normal operating results. Management analyzes income from continuing operations without the impact of these items as an indicator of performance, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals. The adjustments remove the effects of these items. Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to company is calculated as: “As reported income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to company” plus "Impairments and other charges, net of tax", "Baker Hughes acquisition-related costs, net of tax", and "Venezuela currency devaluation loss."
(b)As reported diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2015 excludes options to purchase two million shares of common stock as their impact would be antidilutive since our reported income from continuing operations attributable to company was in a loss position during that period. When adjusting income from continuing operations attributable to company for the special items discussed above, these two million shares become dilutive.
(c)Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share is calculated as: "Adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to company" divided by "Adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding." As reported income (loss) from continuing operations per diluted share is calculated as: "As reported income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to company" divided by "As reported diluted weighted average common shares outstanding."
