Houston, May 5, 2021 – Weatherford International plc (OTC Pink: WFTLF) (“Weatherford” or the “Company”) announced today its results for the first quarter of 2021.
Revenues for the first quarter of 2021 were $832 million, a decline of 1% sequentially and 32% year-on-year. Reported operating loss was $13 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to an operating loss of $107 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and an operating loss of $822 million in the first quarter of 2020. The Company’s first-quarter 2021 net loss was $116 million, compared to a net loss of $200 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and a net loss of $966 million in the first quarter of 2020. First-quarter 2021 cash flows provided by operations were $74 million, compared to cash flows provided by operations of $22 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and cash flows provided by operations of $30 million in the first quarter of 2020. Capital expenditures were $15 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $54 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $38 million in the first quarter of 2020.
First-quarter 2021
Adjusted EBITDA [1] of $102 million increased 4% sequentially and declined 43% year-over-year
Unlevered free cash flow [1] of $94 million was essentially unchanged sequentially and increased $94 million year-over-year

Girish Saligram, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am pleased that we delivered favorable operational performance by accomplishing another quarter of double-digit adjusted EBITDA margins and generating free cash flow. We continued to build on our core focus areas by driving improvements in our profitability in North America, leveraging our portfolio to improve profitability in key product lines, and improving our liquidity position.”
“Our results from the first quarter of 2021 clearly demonstrate we are making significant progress in harnessing growth opportunities through commercial traction of new technologies, expanding into new markets by leveraging adjacent product lines in targeted geographies, and driving synergies from cross-product line solutions. As an example, in our Tubular Running Services product line, we had a commercial Vero® operation in each of our geographies in the first quarter, which marks a major milestone in the commercial traction of this technology. At the confluence of these growth levers lies our confidence in our people, our technologies, and our firm resolve to exceed our customers’ expectations.”
“We exited the first quarter of 2021 with a strong liquidity position by generating $70 million of positive free cash flow, an improvement of $93 million sequentially and $72 million year-on-year. This achievement resulted from improved operating performance, disciplined capital allocation and expenditures, and reduced working capital driven by continued strength in accounts receivable collections and inventory rationalization.”
“Lastly, I am also pleased to share that we recently took an essential step for the Company to fully return to the public markets by filing our Form 10 Registration Statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. I believe that listing on the NASDAQ stock exchange will enhance long-term shareholder value by improving the Company’s visibility, expanding liquidity in our ordinary shares, and providing a broader institutional investor base the opportunity to invest in the new Weatherford. Relisting our shares on the NASDAQ stock exchange has been a goal of the Company’s since completing our financial restructuring. I am extremely proud that we are now in a position to meet this commitment, and this would not have been possible without the hard work and dedication of our employees.”

Notes:
[1] EBITDA represents income before income tax, depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA excludes, among other items, impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill, restructuring expense, stock-based compensation expense, as well as write-offs of property plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, and inventory. Free cash flow is calculated as cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures plus proceeds from the disposition of assets. Unlevered free cash flow is calculated as free cash flow plus cash paid for interest. Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and unlevered free cash flow are non-GAAP measures. Each measure is defined and reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in the tables below.
[2] Includes cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash.

Operational Highlights
During the first quarter, several customers recognized Weatherford operating teams for our outstanding commitment to QHSE. An IOC bestowed the “Outstanding Operational Excellence” award on the tubular running services crew in Tengiz, Kazakhstan. A major NOC in the Middle East recognized Weatherford for delivering 20 years of liner-hanger services without lost time incidents.
An operator in Indonesia chose Weatherford to accelerate its digital transformation by deploying the ForeSite® production optimization platform on a 100 plus well trial. After analyzing the first batch of wells, the Weatherford team advised on optimization opportunities that resulted in a 14% uplift. The ForeSite platform also improved uptime across the wells with an average reduction of 40% in lost-production opportunities. The remote monitoring capabilities of the platform have reduced driving and associated HSE risks while also delivering a significant improvement in personnel utilization and response time. This trial has set the stage for the Company to expand its production optimization and remote monitoring platform in the region.
Weatherford has introduced the Magnus® rotary steerable system in the North Sea market with excellent outcomes, which further demonstrates its commercial traction. A major operator in the UK decided to replace technology from the incumbent, a major competitor, to drill re-entries in an existing field and boost production. The Magnus system not only surpassed the technical limit set by the customer based on the incumbent’s historical performance in the very first deployment, but also drilled the first three re-entry wells an average of 33% faster than planned. This success has led to contracts with two additional customers in the North Sea.
In Eastern Europe, Weatherford deployed its Focused Magnetic Resonance tool openhole logging service in a major carbonate pay zone, which marks the introduction of this technology in Europe. By executing the full scope of its service delivery cycle, the Company delivered performance that exceeded the customer’s expectations, which resulted in an award of six additional wells through the course of 2021 and further awards from two more customers.
In Central Asia, Weatherford completed the fourth installation of ESS® expandable sand screens, which marks the second remotely supervised ESS installation in the country. This expansion into a new market shows the increased traction of ESS technology, a viable alternative to the more expensive gravel-pack option.
In conjunction with Victus intelligent managed pressure drilling, or MPD, technology, Weatherford Drilling Services achieved another record by drilling the longest horizontal well in the history of the field in the Middle East. The 4,500-feet-long horizontal section was geosteered through a 5-feet-thick payzone while retaining 100% of the section in the target formation. To sidetrack this well, which was shut in due to prior drilling challenges, the Weatherford team analyzed the well data and proposed combining its MPD solution with its field-proven rotary steerable system and QuickCut re-entry whipstock system. After setting the whipstock and milling a 6-inch window, the team sidetracked the original hole, landed into the formation with a 91-degree inclination, and drilled the lateral without lost-time incidents.

Liquidity
The Company maintained its disciplined focus on liquidity during the first quarter of 2021. Unlevered free cash flow of $94 million in the first quarter of 2021 improved by $94 million versus the first quarter of 2020, despite a 43% reduction in adjusted EBITDA. First-quarter 2021 free cash flow of $70 million improved by $93 million sequentially and $72 million year-on-year due to the Company’s efforts to control costs and reduce net working capital and capital expenditures. Total cash of approximately $1.3 billion as of March 31, 2021, was up $58 million from the prior quarter.

First-quarter 2021 adjusted segment EBITDA of $66 million decreased $21 million sequentially, and associated margins of 15% declined 360 basis points versus the fourth quarter of 2020. The sequential decline in adjusted segment EBITDA was primarily due to seasonally driven lower activity.

The non-GAAP amounts shown in the following tables should not be considered as substitutes for operating income, provision for income taxes, net income or other data prepared and reported in accordance with GAAP, but should be viewed in addition to the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

[2]Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure calculated as cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment plus proceeds from the disposition of assets. Management believes free cash flow is useful to understand liquidity and should be considered in addition to but not substitute cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities.
