Bernard J. Duroc-Danner, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our third quarter results represent the first period of revenue growth ex-Zubair, following seven consecutive industry-wide quarters of declining activity and pricing. Given that the industry bottomed during the second quarter, the worst of the historical downturn is behind us, and the market is slowly turning.
In North America, revenue grew sequentially by 12% with increased utilization and operating efficiencies. This is the first step towards a recovery. Operators are exhibiting increased willingness to invest in production oriented projects with oil prices at or just above $50/barrel.
Internationally, excluding the Zubair project which has concluded, revenue declined by 4%. Latin America grew sequentially in Mexico, Bolivia and Colombia with the region showing some signs of life. Both the North Sea and Russia were quite resilient while sub-Sahara Africa continued its downward spiral in Angola and Nigeria. In the Middle East/ North Africa/ Asia Pacific region, further slowdowns in activity across Asia Pacific combined with pricing headwinds in the Middle East offset increased activity levels in the Gulf Cooperation Council region.
Leading market indicators continue to show a tightening of the global supply and demand balance, and we anticipate these trends will steadily accelerate. In addition to these fundamentals, potential production discipline by OPEC and Russia should further underpin the strengthening of oil prices, giving rise to increased spending by our customers next year.

We are encouraged by our revenue performance in the third quarter and the fact that our operating income margins improved modestly. With these positive signs, a low cost structure and a repaired balance sheet, we are increasingly confident about our future. Technology and service quality will drive our path forward. Operations is our entire focus. Through innovation, we are further integrating our product line disciplines, which will improve productivity and result in higher capital efficiency.
As we look forward to the unfolding recovery, our vast geographical footprint and highly engineered technology and service offering, along with our ability to aggressively respond to change, will unlock more opportunity and value across our organization. We are engaging and partnering closely with our customers, helping them maximize efficiency and optimize performance. We stand together at the starting point ready to capitalize on the inevitable recovery.”

Third quarter revenues of $449 million were up $48 million, or 12% sequentially, and down $375 million, or 46%, over the same quarter in the prior year. Third quarter operating losses improved by $6 million sequentially to $95 million (-21.2% margin) and increased $41 million from an operating loss of $54 million in the same quarter of the prior year. The 12% increase in sequential revenue in the region was attributed to the recovery from Canadian spring breakup and the 14% increase in the US rig count. On an overall basis, completion, artificial lift, well construction and pressure pumping operations drove the revenue and operating income growth.

Excluding Zubair, third quarter adjusted revenues of $793 million were down $30 million or 4% sequentially, and lower by $418 million, or 34% compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Third quarter adjusted operating income of $3 million (0.5% margin) was higher by $1 million sequentially and $155 million lower versus the same quarter in the prior year.
| • | Latin America |
Third quarter revenues of $255 million were up $6 million, or 2% sequentially, and down $166 million, or 39%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Third quarter operating income of $14 million (5.1% margin) was up $13 million sequentially and down 82% compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Incrementals of 215% for the quarter were driven mainly by higher activity with customers in Mexico, Bolivia and Colombia.

| • | Europe/Sub-Sahara Africa/Russia |
Third quarter revenues of $225 million were down $18 million, or 8% sequentially, and down $136 million, or 38%, over the same quarter in the prior year. Third quarter operating loss of $3 million (-1.0% margin) deteriorated by $4 million or 459% sequentially, and was down 105%, when compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Continued rig count declines in offshore West Africa, mainly Angola, and lower customer activity in Nigeria negatively impacted both the revenues and operating loss for the quarter.
| • | Middle East/North Africa/Asia Pacific |
Third quarter revenues of $329 million were down $71 million, or 18% sequentially, and down $116 million, or 26%, from the same quarter in the prior year. Operating loss of $8 million (-2.2% margin) was down from near break-even last quarter and down $10 million from the same quarter in the prior year. The sequential revenue decrease was mainly caused by the end of the Zubair project in Iraq with a one-off substantial revenue recognition last quarter reflecting the settlement agreement, coupled with customer activity declines throughout the Asia Pacific region. Adjusted revenues were down $16 million, or 5% sequentially and 27% from the same quarter in the prior year while the adjusted operating loss, increased $8 million from the prior quarter due to pricing headwinds in the Middle East and lower activity across Asia Pacific.
Land Drilling Rigs
Third quarter revenues of $98 million were down $11 million, or 10% sequentially, and down $88 million, or 48%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Third quarter operating loss of $19 million (-19.4% margin) was down $2 million sequentially and down $35 million from the same quarter in the prior year. A combination of lower rig utilization due to rig maintenance and delays in equipment and personnel reactivations in Algeria, and lower day rates from the mix of operating rigs adversely impacted both the revenues and operating loss for the quarter.
Operational Highlights
| • | Weatherford achieved successful inaugural runs of the HeatWave™ Extreme (HEX) triple-combo logging-while-drilling (LWD) tool string. The first run was completed in early September, on a well in the Gulf of Thailand with a measured depth of more than 14,000 feet and a maximum circulating temperature of 388°F (198°C). The HEX triple-combo LWD string delivered a complete suite of measurements while drilling. The technology has since been run on five additional wells, with zero downhole non-productive time. Further deployments are planned. The HEX triple-combo technology was jointly developed by Weatherford and its client as part of the second phase of the HEX project, which was first announced in November 2015. Following the successful deployment of the phase-one HEX service, and recognition at the 2015 Society of Petroleum Engineers Thailand E&P Annual Awards Program, the team turned its focus to applying the high-temperature technology to the full suite of triple-combo LWD measurements. |
| • | The Company saw significant market share gains in the UK North Sea. Among our many operational achievements in this region was our first offshore contract for combined Drilling Services and Surface Logging Systems, which included the deployment of the CrossWave® azimuthal sonic tool, the SineWave® microimager, the PressureWave® formation tester and a triple-combo logging-while-drilling (LWD) suite. The technologies delivered a full suite of high-quality LWD and mud-logging data, eliminated the need for wireline deployment, and helped the client reach total depth three days ahead of plan. |

| • | Weatherford was awarded a multi-year, $480 million wireline and testing services contract for a NOC in the Middle East. The scope of services will include deployment of our Compact™ imaging and formation-testing tools, our industry-leading Raptor™ cased-hole reservoir evaluation tool, and several new technologies for heavy-oil fields. In a world where the next step in activity will be dominated by land development, Weatherford is well positioned for outperformance. |
| • | Weatherford Russia was recognized as the Best Directional Drilling Company of the Year by Rosneft at the second specialized Exploration and Production Technologies 2016 conference held in Moscow in early October. Rosneft reviewed the performance of several Russian and foreign contractors in the areas of health, safety and environment (HSE) as well as reliability and technology. As a result, Weatherford was recognized for achieving the best results in directional drilling and logging and measurement throughout 2015. |
| • | Weatherford recently completed production riser installation operations for a super-major operator in the Asia Pacific region. A suite of customized tubular running technologies, including a Weatherford 21-300 Riser Tong and the PowerFrame® II tong-positioning system, was fully integrated into the rig. To enhance the quality of connections made up on the rig, the operator will use Weatherford JAM® delta torque software, which helps to prevent markings on the pipe and preserves the external coating. |
| • | In Brazil, Weatherford deployed the Microflux® control system and the SeaShield® below-tension-ring rotating control device to transform a previously abandoned well into an injector through a target zone to an estimated total depth of 18,000 feet (5,486 meters) in a challenging deepwater environment. Together, these technologies provided early detection of kicks and losses, and enabled quick, accurate drilling decisions and precise control of the wellbore pressure profile. Operations were completed with zero non-productive time. |
Free Cash Flow
Net cash used in operating activities was $106 million and free cash flow used in operations was $147 million for the third quarter of 2016. Capital expenditures of $62 million were down $69 million, or 53% versus the same quarter in the prior year and increased by $31 million, or 100%, from the second quarter of 2016. Also included in the quarter’s free cash flow were $101 million of debt interest payments. Additionally, $38 million of cash severance and restructuring costs were paid this quarter, thereby reducing operating costs going forward. Although working capital generated $65 million of cash, driven by reductions in inventory balances, this was well short of expectations as we saw a large number of customers managing their cash flow actively and further delaying payments to service companies across the board.

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 and ratios (as defined under the SEC’s Regulation G) may provide users of this financial information, additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods. The non-GAAP amounts shown below 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.

“Net Debt” is defined as debt less cash. Management believes that it provides useful information regarding our level of indebtedness by reflecting cash that could be used to repay debt.
Working capital is defined as accounts receivable plus inventory less accounts payable.

“Free Cash Flow” is defined as net cash provided by or used in operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from dispositions and insurance recoveries. “Free Cash Flow Provided by (Used In) Operations” is defined as net cash provided by or used in operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from dispositions and insurance recoveries and adjusted for litigation reimbursements. Management uses the two free cash flow metrics to measure progress on capital efficiency and cash flow initiatives.
*As of September 30, 2016, the $67 million includes proceeds from disposal of property, plant, and equipment of $28 million and $39 million of insurance reimbursements received on a land drilling rig loss.
**As of September 30, 2016, the $4 million in insurance proceeds received in the first quarter 2016 reimburses a portion of a shareholder derivative litigation settlement payment of $120 million made in the third quarter of 2015.
