Houston, July 25, 2023 – Weatherford International plc (NASDAQ: WFRD) (“Weatherford” or the “Company”) announced today its results for the second quarter of 2023.
Revenues for the second quarter of 2023 were $1,274 million, an increase 7% sequentially and 20% year-over-year. Operating income was $201 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $185 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $104 million in the second quarter of 2022. Net income in the second quarter of 2023 was $82 million, compared to $72 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $6 million in the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA* was $291 million, an increase of 8% sequentially and 56% year-over-year. Basic income per share was $1.14, compared to $1.00 in the first quarter of 2023 and $0.08 in the second quarter of 2022.
Second quarter 2023 cash flows provided by operations were $201 million, compared to $84 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $60 million in the second quarter of 2022. Adjusted free cash flow* was $172 million, an increase of $145 million sequentially and $113 million year-over-year. Capital expenditures were $36 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $64 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $24 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Girish Saligram, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am very proud of the One Weatherford team who executed well in a complex second quarter. We continued to build on the momentum from the start of the year, and I am especially pleased with our performance on the two key metrics of margin expansion and adjusted free cash flow generation. Despite softness in the North America market and additional headwinds from the Canadian wildfires, we exceeded expectations driven by the strength in our international operations and the focus on our strategic priorities.
Based on the strength of our second-quarter performance and the confidence in our strategy and execution, we are raising our full-year 2023 adjusted EBITDA margins guidance, on mid to high teens revenue growth and expect expansion of over 350 basis points year-over-year, and now expect adjusted free cash flow to exceed $400 million for the year.”

Liquidity
We closed the second quarter of 2023 with total cash of approximately $922 million as of June 30, 2023, down $61 million sequentially. In the second quarter of 2023, we made debt redemptions and repurchases of $159 million, comprised of $105 million of our 11% Senior Unsecured Notes (“Exit Notes”) and $54 million of our 6.5% Senior Secured Notes (“Secured Notes”). As of June 30, 2023 we have fully redeemed our Exit Notes and have approximately $396 million of principal outstanding on our Secured Notes.
Net cash provided by operating activities during the second quarter of 2023 was $201 million, up $117 million sequentially, and up $141 million year-over-year. Adjusted free cash flow* of $172 million was up $145 million sequentially and up $113 million compared to the second quarter of 2022. The sequential increase was driven mainly by higher activity, improved collections efficiency and lower capital expenditures. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by a 93% increase in operating income.
Other Financial Items
The Central Bank of Argentina has maintained certain currency controls that limited our ability to access U.S. dollars in Argentina and to remit cash from our Argentine operations. During the second quarter of 2023 we utilized an indirect foreign exchange mechanism known as a Blue Chip Swap (“BCS”) to remit U.S. dollars from Argentina through the purchase and sale of BCS securities. The transactions were completed at implied exchange rates (“BCS rates”) that were approximately 106% higher than the official exchange rate resulting in a loss of $57 million during the second quarter of 2023.

Second quarter 2023 DRE revenues of $394 million increased by $22 million, or 6% sequentially, primarily due to increased activity for drilling-related services partially offset by a decrease in North America mainly due to the negative impact from Canadian seasonality and wildfires. DRE revenues increased by $77 million, or 24% year-over-year, primarily due to increased activity across all product lines and geographies, particularly in drilling-related services.
Second quarter 2023 DRE segment adjusted EBITDA of $106 million decreased by $2 million, or 2% sequentially, primarily due to timing of cost inflation related recoveries received in the prior quarter partially offset by higher activity in managed pressure drilling. Year-over-year DRE segment adjusted EBITDA increased by $37 million, or 54%, primarily due to higher fall through from increased activity across all product lines.

North America
Second quarter 2023, North America revenues of $265 million decreased by $21 million, or 7% sequentially, primarily in Canada due to seasonality and wildfires. Despite notably softer activity in North America, we saw improvement in the United States, largely driven by artificial lift. Year-over-year revenue decreased by $3 million, or 1%, as drilling and completions activity slowed in response to economic and market conditions and compounded by the Canadian wildfire impacts, partially offset by increased offshore demand driven by managed pressure drilling and cementation products.

Second quarter 2023 International revenues of $1,009 million increased 12% sequentially and 27% year over year.

Second quarter 2023 Latin America revenues of $371 million increased by $54 million, or 17% sequentially, primarily due to increased offshore completions activity in Brazil and higher activity in our PRI segment in Argentina and Mexico. Year-over-year, Latin America revenue increased by $106 million, or 40%, primarily due to higher activity in all our segments.

Second quarter 2023 Middle East/North Africa/Asia revenues of $421 million increased by $45 million, or 12% sequentially, primarily driven by higher WCC, DRE, and integrated services and projects revenue, with notable increase in activity in Saudi Arabia. Year-over-year, revenue increased by $71 million, or 20%, primarily due to higher activity in all segments and an increase in integrated services and projects revenue.

Second quarter 2023 Europe/Sub-Sahara Africa/Russia revenues of $217 million increased by $10 million, or 5% sequentially, primarily due to increased managed pressure drilling activity.

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 a 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.
