- Net income of $0.80 per diluted share.
- Revenue of $5.8 billion and operating margin of 18%.
- Cash flow from operations of $1.1 billion and free cash flow1
of approximately $800 million.
- Repurchases of approximately $250 million of common stock.
Halliburton Company (NYSE: HAL) announced today net income of
$709 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, for the second quarter of
2024. This compares to net income for the first quarter of 2024 of
$606 million, or $0.68 per diluted share and first quarter of 2024
adjusted net income2 of $679 million, or $0.76 per diluted share.
Halliburton's total revenue for the second quarter of 2024 was $5.8
billion, sequentially flat. Operating income was $1.0 billion in
the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 5% sequentially.
“Halliburton's returns and cash flow are strong and I am pleased
with our performance this quarter. The quality of our people, the
clarity of our strategy, our leading technologies, the depth of our
pipeline of opportunities, and the competitiveness of our business
segments all give me confidence in Halliburton’s future,” commented
Jeff Miller, Chairman, President and CEO.
“In our international markets we see strong demand for
Halliburton’s services, high activity levels, and equipment
tightness across all major basins.
“In North America, our strategy to maximize value in North
America delivers shareholder value, and I expect that we will
continue to deliver strong returns through this cycle,” concluded
Miller.
Operating Segments
Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue in the second quarter of 2024
was $3.4 billion, sequentially flat, while operating income was
$723 million, an increase of $35 million, or 5%, compared to the
first quarter of 2024. Revenue improvements driven by increased
completion tool sales in the Eastern Hemisphere, higher stimulation
activity in Latin America, increased cementing activity in the
Western Hemisphere, and improved well intervention services
internationally were offset by decreased stimulation activity in
U.S. land, lower completion tool sales in the Western Hemisphere,
and decreased artificial lift services in North America. Operating
income increased due to activity mix improvements from completion
tool sales in the Eastern Hemisphere, stimulation activity and well
intervention services internationally, and cementing services in
North America.
Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the second quarter of 2024
was $2.4 billion, while operating income was $403 million, both
flat sequentially. These results were driven by higher
drilling-related services in Europe, North America and Asia,
improved wireline activity in the Western Hemisphere and Europe,
and increased testing services internationally. Offsetting these
improvements were lower software sales globally, decreased
drilling-related services in Latin America and Africa, and lower
wireline activity in Middle East/Asia and Africa.
Geographic Regions
North America
North America revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $2.5
billion, a 3% decrease sequentially. This decline was primarily
driven by decreased pressure pumping services in U.S. land and
lower activity across multiple product service lines in the Gulf of
Mexico. Partially offsetting these declines were increased
drilling-related services in Canada and U.S. land, higher wireline
activity in U.S. land and the Gulf of Mexico, improved pressure
pumping services in Canada, and increased cementing activity in the
Gulf of Mexico.
International
International revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $3.4
billion, an increase of 3% sequentially.
Latin America revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $1.1
billion, sequentially flat. Improved activity across multiple
product service lines in Argentina and the Caribbean, higher
pressure pumping services in Mexico, and increased drilling-related
services in Brazil were offset by lower drilling-related services,
decreased project management activity, and decreased software sales
in Mexico and lower completion tool sales in the Caribbean.
Europe/Africa revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $757
million, an increase of 4% sequentially. This increase was
primarily driven by higher well construction activity and improved
wireline activity in Norway along with increased completion tool
sales and higher stimulation activity in Angola. Partially
offsetting these improvements were lower software sales in the
region along with decreased fluid services and lower wireline
activity in Africa.
Middle East/Asia revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $1.5
billion, an increase of 5% sequentially. This increase was
primarily due to higher well construction activity in United Arab
Emirates, improved completion tool sales in Saudi Arabia, increased
stimulation activity and improved project management activity in
Kuwait, and increased fluid services in Asia. Partially offsetting
these improvements were lower well construction activity in Oman,
lower wireline activity in the region, and decreased fluid services
in Saudi Arabia.
Other Financial Items
During the second quarter of 2024, Halliburton:
- Repurchased approximately $250 million of its common
stock.
- Paid dividends of $0.17 per share.
- Spent $29 million on SAP S4 migration.
Selective Technology &
Highlights
- Halliburton announced it was awarded a deep water integrated
multi-well construction contract in Namibia by Rhino Resources
Ltd., a private company engaged in both onshore and offshore energy
exploration in Africa.
- Halliburton introduced GeoESP® lifting pumps, an advanced
submersible borehole and surface pump technology designed
specifically for geothermal energy applications. Developed by
Summit ESP®, a Halliburton service, GeoESP lifting pumps address
critical challenges related to the transport of fluids to the
surface through electric submersible pumps (ESP).
- Halliburton added the SentinelCem™ Pro cement system to its
lost circulation solutions portfolio. The single-sack packaging
enables proactive storage in offshore and remote locations.
SentinelCem Pro cement, built upon its predecessor, simplifies
mixing operations as it eliminates the need for pre-hydration of
the slurry design and access to high-purity water sources. This
feature facilitates more efficient rig operations with the option
to direct mix the system on-the-fly or in a batch mixer.
- Halliburton and Wintershall Dea have announced a license
agreement under which Wintershall Dea will use Halliburton
Landmark’s new Unified Ensemble Modeling (UEM) solution. UEM is an
innovative approach that for the first time simultaneously
integrates static and dynamic data in real time to represent
subsurface conditions across multiple scales. This method improves
the accuracy of reservoir models by consistently incorporating
geologic uncertainties, making UEM vital to optimize reservoir
recovery under uncertainty.
- Halliburton Landmark and AIQ, the Abu Dhabi-based AI champion
with innovative solutions for the energy sector announced a partner
agreement under which AIQ’s RoboWell autonomous well control (AWC)
solution will be made available through Halliburton Landmark’s
iEnergy hybrid cloud. This agreement marks a step in AIQ’s goal to
expand the adoption of AI-enabled AWC tools to help optimize and
increase production in the global upstream sector.
- Halliburton Labs participant, Nanotech Materials, opened a new
43,000-square-foot facility in Katy, Texas, to expand its
production of a roof coating that features its novel heat-control
technology. The larger facility will support growth after
successful scale-up at Halliburton Labs.

The Central Bank of Argentina maintains
currency controls that limit our ability to access U.S. dollars in
Argentina and remit cash from our Argentine operations. The
execution of certain trades known as Blue Chip Swaps, effectively
results in a parallel U.S. dollar exchange rate. During the three
months ended June 30, 2023, Halliburton entered into Blue Chip Swap
transactions which resulted in a $104 million pre-tax loss.
(b)
During the three months ended March 31,

the impairment of an investment in Argentina and currency
devaluation in Egypt.

During the three months ended March 31,
2024, Halliburton incurred a charge of $82 million primarily due to
the impairment of an investment in Argentina and currency
devaluation in Egypt.
(b)
The tax adjustment in the table above
includes the tax effect on the impairment of an investment in
Argentina and Egypt currency impact during the three months ended
March 31, 2024. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the
tax adjustment includes the tax effect on the loss on Blue Chip
Swap transactions.
(c)
Adjusted net income attributable to
company is a non-GAAP financial measure which is calculated as:
“Net income attributable to company” plus “Total adjustments, net
of taxes” for the respective periods. Management believes net
income adjusted for the Egypt currency impact, Argentina investment
impairment, and the loss on the Blue Chip Swap transactions, along
with the tax adjustment, 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 net income without the impact of these
items as an indicator of performance to identify underlying trends
in the business and to establish operational goals. Total
adjustments remove the effect of these items.
(d)
Net income per diluted share is calculated
as: “Net income attributable to company” divided by “Diluted
weighted average common shares outstanding.” Adjusted net income
per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure which is
calculated as: “Adjusted net income attributable to company”
divided by “Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.”
Management believes adjusted net income per diluted share is useful
to investors to assess and understand operating performance.

the excluded items to be outside of the company's normal operating
results. Management analyzes net income without the impact of these
items as an indicator of performance to identify underlying trends
in the business and to establish operational goals. Total
adjustments remove the effect of these items.
(d)
Net income per diluted share is calculated
as: “Net income attributable to company” divided by “Diluted
weighted average common shares outstanding.” Adjusted net income
per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure which is
calculated as: “Adjusted net income attributable to company”
divided by “Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.”
Management believes adjusted net income per diluted share is useful
to investors to assess and understand operating performance.

(a)
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial
measure which is calculated as “Total cash flows provided by
operating activities” less “Capital expenditures” plus “Proceeds
from sales of property, plant, and equipment.” Management believes
that Free Cash Flow is a key measure to assess liquidity of the
business and is consistent with the disclosures of Halliburton's
direct, large-cap competitors.
