HELMERICH & PAYNE, INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
Helmerich & Payne, Inc. reported net income of $53,044,000 ($0.50 per diluted share) from operating revenues of $387,767,000 for its third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared with net income of $125,369,000 ($1.18 per diluted share) from operating revenues of $522,517,000 during last year’s third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008. Net income recorded for the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009, includes $0.01 per share of after-tax gains from the sale of drilling equipment. Included in last year’s third quarter net income were $0.09 per share of after-tax gains from the sale of portfolio securities and $0.04 per share from the sale of drilling equipment and insurance settlements, as well as a charge of $0.07 per share (after-tax) from the write-off of in-process research and development resulting from the acquisition of TerraVici Drilling Solutions.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the Company reported net income of $302,057,000 ($2.84 per diluted share) from operating revenues of $1,531,821,000 compared with net income of $335,253,000 ($3.16 per diluted share) from operating revenues of $1,452,824,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2008. Net income recorded for the first nine months of fiscal 2009 included $0.03 per share of after-tax gains from the sale of drilling equipment. Included in net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 were gains from the sale of portfolio securities and drilling equipment, and gains from insurance settlements of $0.21 per share and the above mentioned in-process research and development charge of $0.07 per share.
Segment operating income for U.S. land operations was $96,593,000 for this year’s third fiscal quarter, compared with $159,413,000 for last year’s third fiscal quarter and $192,930,000 for this year’s second fiscal quarter. The decline was primarily a result of significantly lower activity levels in the U.S. land drilling market during this year’s third fiscal quarter as compared to prior quarters. The segment’s average rig revenue per day declined by $3,059 from $31,384 during this year’s second fiscal quarter to $28,325 during the third fiscal quarter, and the average rig margin per day declined by $3,302 from $19,354 during this year’s second fiscal quarter to $16,052 during the third fiscal quarter. Approximately $4,400 per day of the average rig revenue and margin per day reported for this year’s third fiscal quarter was primarily a result of early contract termination revenue and of delay penalty revenues corresponding to requested delivery delays for new builds under long-term contracts. This compares to approximately $6,500 per day included in the rig revenue and margin per day averages corresponding to this year’s second fiscal quarter for

the same type of early termination and delay penalty revenue. Additional revenues of approximately $70 million corresponding to new build early terminations and requested delivery delays are expected to be recognized after the third fiscal quarter. At this point, the Company expects about 40% of this amount to favorably impact the fourth fiscal quarter revenues, and the remainder to favorably impact fiscal 2010. Excluding the impact of income corresponding to early terminations and requested delivery delays during this year’s second and third fiscal quarters, the average rig revenue per day declined sequentially by $949 to $23,927 for the third fiscal quarter, and the average rig margin per day declined sequentially by $1,168 to $11,730 for the third fiscal quarter.
Rig utilization for the Company’s U.S. land segment declined to 51% for this year’s third fiscal quarter, compared with 96% for last year’s third fiscal quarter and 72% for this year’s second fiscal quarter. The rig utilization rate excludes new builds under long-term contracts that may already be generating revenue, but that have not yet commenced operations given customer requests to delay new build deliveries. The Company’s U.S. land segment had 110 rigs contracted (including 89 rigs under term contracts) and 100 rigs idle and available at the end of the third fiscal quarter. In its U.S. land segment, the Company expects an average of approximately 91 rigs to remain under term contracts during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2009, and an average of approximately 80 rigs to remain under term contracts during all of fiscal 2010.
President and C.E.O. Hans Helmerich commented, “The first half of calendar 2009 has seen a dramatic plunge in U.S. land rig activity driven by lower natural gas prices and resultant capital spending reductions by exploration and production companies. We’re encouraged by what appears to be a recent bottoming out in the industry rig count. H&P’s rig utilization is the highest in the industry among large drilling contractors due to its high percentage of rigs on term contracts and because of the availability of FlexRigs® in the spot market. With over 80% of our U.S. land fleet comprised of FlexRigs, we are in a favored position to benefit from any improvement that lies ahead in the land rig market.”
Segment operating income for the Company’s offshore operations was $12,723,000 for this year’s third fiscal quarter, compared with $12,013,000 for last year’s third fiscal quarter and $15,837,000 for this year’s second fiscal quarter. The sequential decline was attributable to declining activity given softer market conditions in the offshore platform business and to a significant number of rigs that were concurrently operating at reduced standby or move rates during portions of the third fiscal quarter. Average rig utilization in the offshore segment was reported at 93% for this year’s third fiscal quarter, compared with 89% during last year’s third fiscal quarter and 98% during this year’s second fiscal quarter. Average rig margins per day declined to $18,555 during this year’s third fiscal quarter from $22,330 during this year’s second fiscal quarter.
The Company’s international land operating segment recorded a loss of $8,321,000 for this year’s third fiscal quarter, compared with operating income of $17,492,000 for last year’s third fiscal quarter, and a $15,282,000 loss for this year’s second fiscal quarter. The operating loss was a result of the Company’s previous decision to

not record revenue beginning the second fiscal quarter from the Company’s operations in Venezuela until the corresponding cash is collected. This negatively impacted the international land segment’s revenue by $19.7 million during the third fiscal quarter of 2009, or approximately $10,024 per rig revenue day. Consequently, the segment’s average rig margin per day was reported at $907 for the quarter, as compared to $10,931, which would have been reported for the quarter if Venezuelan revenues were to have been recorded. Average rig utilization for the third fiscal quarter was 62%, compared with 79% for last year’s third fiscal quarter, and 81% during this year’s second fiscal quarter. The sequential decline in utilization was primarily a result of the Company’s lower level of activity in Venezuela.
The Company is proactively continuing efforts to collect unpaid invoice amounts in Venezuela. Since the Company’s last quarterly earnings release on April 30, 2009, the Company has collected approximately $48 million (U.S. currency equivalent) from PDVSA. Included in these collections is a recent total collection in local currency equivalent to approximately $40 million U.S. dollars. As of today, the total invoiced amount by the Company that remains pending payment from PDVSA is approximately $97 million (U.S. currency equivalent), of which approximately 80% is over 90 days old. Nine of the 11 H&P rigs that formerly worked for PDVSA and that have completed their contract obligations are currently stacked in Venezuela. The Company’s remaining two rigs continue to work for PDVSA and are expected to complete their contract obligations within the next six weeks. The Company will continue to pursue future drilling opportunities in Venezuela, but it does not expect to commit to new contracts until additional progress is made on pending receivable collections.
The Company also announced today that it has entered into term daywork drilling contracts with a multinational service company (Schlumberger Ltd - SLB) for integrated project management (IPM) work in Mexico, providing four FlexRigs for a duration of at least two years. Furthermore, a fifth FlexRig is being prepared for international work based on a binding letter of intent from a U.S. based exploration and production company for a short-term project in Africa. All five of these FlexRigs were built in prior years and were recently idle and available for work in the U.S. land market.
President and C.E.O. Hans Helmerich commented, “We are pleased about the opportunity to increase our international exposure to the FlexRig. The availability of FlexRigs in the U.S. provides the Company the opportunity to enlarge its international fleet with newer and more technologically advanced rigs in geographical areas where the value of the FlexRig has not been experienced before.”
On July 21, 2009, the Company closed a private placement of $200 million of senior unsecured, fixed-rate 6.10% notes due July 2016. The proceeds from this facility will be used to repay indebtedness, to fund capital expenditures, or for other general corporate purposes. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually. The Company will make five equal annual principal repayments of $40 million beginning on the third anniversary of the closing date.

News Release
July 30, 2009
Segment operating income for all segments is a non-GAAP financial measure of the Company’s performance, as it excludes general and administrative expenses, corporate depreciation, income from asset sales and other corporate income and expense. The Company considers segment operating income to be an important supplemental measure of operating performance for presenting trends in the Company’s core businesses. This measure is used by the Company to facilitate period-to-period comparisons in operating performance of the Company’s reportable segments in the aggregate by eliminating items that affect comparability between periods. The Company believes that segment operating income is useful to investors because it provides a means to evaluate the operating performance of the segments and the Company on an ongoing basis using criteria that are used by our internal decision makers. Additionally, it highlights operating trends and aids analytical comparisons. However, segment operating income has limitations and should not be used as an alternative to operating income or loss, a performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP, as it excludes certain costs that may affect the Company’s operating performance in future periods.
The following table reconciles operating income (loss) per the information above to income before income taxes and equity in income of affiliates as reported on the Consolidated Statements of Income (in thousands).
