Houston, April 25, 2023 – Weatherford International plc (NASDAQ: WFRD) (“Weatherford” or the “Company”) announced today its results for the first quarter of 2023.
Revenues for the first quarter of 2023 were $1,186 million, an increase of 26% year-over-year and a decrease of 2% sequentially. Operating income was $185 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $18 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $169 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company’s first quarter of 2023 net income was $72 million, compared to a net loss of $80 million in the first quarter of 2022 and net income of $72 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA* was $269 million, an increase of 78% year-over-year and 1% sequentially. Diluted income per share was $0.97, compared to a diluted loss per share of $1.14 in the first quarter of 2022 and diluted income per share of $0.99 in the fourth quarter of 2022.
First quarter 2023 cash flows provided by operations were $84 million, compared to cash flows used by operations of $64 million in the first quarter of 2022 and cash flows provided by operations of $193 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Adjusted free cash flow* was $27 million, an increase of $91 million year-over-year and a decrease of $144 million sequentially. Capital expenditures were $64 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $20 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $49 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Girish Saligram, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The first quarter results are a testament to the unfolding of the next chapter at Weatherford. I am immensely proud of our One Weatherford team for executing very well on all operating fronts and the performance in the first quarter is a springboard for our total year outlook. The first quarter results which generated margins ahead of a historic record fourth quarter of 2022, positions us well for 2023. This very encouraging start to the year gives us confidence to continue to reduce debt, improve our outlook, and raise our guidance for the full year on revenue, margins and adjusted free cash flow*.
While we see macro volatility, driven by geopolitical events, inflation and recessionary threats, a strong outlook for international activity continues to support a robust growth scenario featuring a spending pattern that is more long-lasting and less prone to fluctuations in commodity prices compared to previous cycles. We are seeing some potential softness in the North America market but expect to fully offset that with International demand on both land and offshore.
Our strategic priorities provide us with the clarity of purpose and based on our execution, we now expect our overall revenue to grow by mid-teens year-over-year in 2023 and expect adjusted EBITDA margins* to expand by at least 250 basis points year-over-year. This will result in higher adjusted free cash flow* generation than 2022, providing a very constructive operating performance framework for the year.”

Adjusted free cash flow* of $27 million was down $144 million sequentially and up $91 million compared to the first quarter of 2022. The sequential decrease was driven mainly by higher operating and working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and lower proceeds from asset sales. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher operating income.

Weatherford International plc
Non-GAAP Financial Measures Defined (Unaudited)

We report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, Weatherford’s management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures (as defined under the SEC’s Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K) may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods and comparisons with peer companies. The non-GAAP amounts shown in the following tables should not be considered as substitutes for results reported in accordance with GAAP but should be viewed in addition to the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA* - Adjusted EBITDA* is a non-GAAP measure and represents consolidated income before interest expense, net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and excludes, among other items, restructuring charges, share-based compensation expense, as well as other charges and credits. Management believes adjusted EBITDA* is useful to assess and understand normalized operating performance and trends. Adjusted EBITDA* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for consolidated net income and should be viewed in addition to the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA margin* - Adjusted EBITDA margin* is non-GAAP measure which is calculated by dividing consolidated adjusted EBITDA* by consolidated revenues. Management believes adjusted EBITDA margin* is useful to assess and understand normalized operating performance and trends. Adjusted EBITDA margin* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for consolidated net income margin and should be viewed in addition to the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow* (formerly titled as Free Cash Flow) - Adjusted free cash flow* is a non-GAAP measure and represents cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures plus proceeds from the disposition of assets. Management believes adjusted free cash flow* is useful to understand our performance at generating cash and demonstrates our discipline around the use of cash. Adjusted free cash flow* should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for cash flows provided by operating activities and should be viewed in addition to the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
