NATIONAL-OILWELL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect reported and contingent amounts of assets and
liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements present information
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and
applicable rules of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information or
footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with
our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10K. The financial statements for the three
months and six months ended June 30, 2003 have been restated as disclosed in
Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2003 Annual
Report on Form 10K.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements include all adjustments,
all of which are of a normal, recurring nature, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations
for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
2. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
We apply Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations in accounting for our
stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for
stock option grants as all options granted had an exercise price equal to the
market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Had
compensation expense for the stock option grants been determined on the fair
value at the grant dates consistent with the method of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", our net income and income per share would have been adjusted to
the pro forma amounts indicated below (amounts in thousands, except per share
amounts):

Diluted, as reported $ 0.25 $ 0.21 $ 0.38 $ 0.42
Diluted, pro forma 0.22 0.19 0.33 0.37
5
For purposes of determining compensation expense using the provisions of SFAS
No. 123, the fair value of option grants was determined using the Black-Scholes
option-valuation model. The weighted average fair value per share of stock
options granted in the first six months of 2004 and 2003 was $13.19 and $9.20,
respectively. The key input variables used in valuing the options granted in
2004 and 2003 were: risk-free interest rate of 2.7% in 2004 and 2.6% in 2003;
dividend yield of zero in each year; stock price volatility of 51% in 2004 and
48% in 2003, and expected option lives of five years for each year presented.

In November 2002, we sold $200 million of 5.65% unsecured senior notes due
November 15, 2012. Interest is payable on May 15 and November 15 of each year.
In March 2001, we sold $150 million of 6.50% unsecured senior notes due March
15, 2011, with interest payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year. In
June 1998, we sold $150 million of 6.875% unsecured senior notes due July 1,

At June 30, 2004, we had two committed credit facilities, a North American and a
Norwegian facility, totaling $266 million. Both facilities are available for
general corporate purposes and acquisitions, including letters of credit and
performance bonds.
Our North American facility is an unsecured $175 million revolving credit
facility that expires July 31, 2005 with availability up to $50 million for
issuance of letters of credit. At June 30, 2004, borrowings against this
facility totaled $77 million and there were $24 million in outstanding letters
of credit. Interest (1.9% @ June 30, 2004) is based upon prime or Libor plus
0.5% subject to a ratings based grid.
Our Norwegian facility, which expires in 2006, has revolving credit facilities
totaling $91 million, with $36 million available for letter of credit purposes.
At June 30, 2004, there were $19 million in outstanding letters of credit and no
borrowings against this facility. Interest is based upon a pre-agreed percentage
point spread from either the prime interest rate, NIBOR or EURIBOR.
We also have additional uncommitted credit facilities totaling $131 million that
are used primarily for letters of credit, bid bonds and performance bonds. At
June 30, 2004, borrowings against these additional credit facilities totaled $2
million and there were $34 million in outstanding letters of credit and
performance bonds.
The senior notes contain reporting covenants and the credit facilities contain
financial covenants and ratios regarding maximum debt to capital and minimum
interest coverage. We were in compliance with all covenants governing these
facilities at June 30, 2004.

8. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In May 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Staff
Position ("FSP") 106-2, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the
Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 , which
supercedes FSP 106-1 of the same title issued in January 2004. FSP 106-2 becomes
effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2004.
FSP 106-2 provides guidance on the accounting for the effects of the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the "Act") for
employers that sponsor postretirement health care plans that provide
prescription drug benefits. FSP 106-2 also requires those employers to provide
certain disclosures regarding the effect of the federal subsidy provided by the
Act. We do not expect adoption of FSP No. 106-2 to have a material effect on our
financial condition or results of operations.
During March 2004, the FASB issued an exposure draft of a new standard entitled
Share Based Payment , which would amend SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based
Compensation , and SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows . Among other items, the
new standard would require the expensing of stock options issued by the company
in the financial statements. The new standard, as proposed, would be effective
January 1, 2005, for calendar year companies. See Note 2 for pro forma
disclosures regarding the effect on income from continuing operations and
earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of
the exposure draft and SFAS No. 123. Depending on the model used to calculate
stock-based compensation expense in the future, the pro forma disclosure in Note
2 may not be indicative of the stock-based compensation expense to be recognized
in future financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION
We design, manufacture and sell drilling systems, drilling equipment and
downhole products as well as distribute maintenance, repair and operating
products to the oil and gas industry. Our revenues and operating results are
directly related to the level of worldwide oil and gas drilling and production
activities and the profitability and cash flow of oil and gas companies and
drilling contractors, which in turn are affected by current and anticipated
prices of oil and gas. Oil and gas prices have been and are likely to continue
to be volatile. This is a cyclical industry and, unlike most prior cycles,
sustained, relatively high oil and gas prices have not driven a corresponding
level of increased spending by our customers.
We conduct our operations through the following segments:
Products and Technology
Our Products and Technology segment designs and manufactures complete land
drilling and workover rigs, and drilling related systems for offshore rigs.
Technology has increased the desirability of one vendor assuming responsibility
for the entire suite of components used in the drilling process, as mechanical
and hydraulic components are replaced by or augmented with integrated
computerized systems. In addition to traditional components such as drawworks,
mud pumps, top drives, derricks, cranes, jacking and mooring systems, and other
structural components, we provide automated pipehandling, control and electrical
power systems. We have also developed new technology for drawworks and mud pumps
applicable to the highly demanding offshore markets. We have made strategic
acquisitions during the past several years in an effort to expand our product
offering and our global manufacturing capabilities, including new operations in
Norway, the United Kingdom and China. Product and Technology revenues are
directly dependent on the levels of worldwide drilling activity.
Distribution Services
Our Distribution Services segment provides maintenance, repair and operating
supplies and spare parts from our network of distribution service centers to
drill site and production locations throughout North America and to offshore
contractors worldwide. Products are purchased from numerous manufacturers and
vendors, including our Products and Technology segment. We have expanded this
business to locations outside North America, including Europe, the Middle East,
Southeast Asia, and South America. We have made significant investments in
systems, staffing and inventory in the international market and, using our
information technology platforms and processes, we can provide complete
procurement, inventory management, and logistics services to our customers.
Approximately half of Distribution Services revenues are tied to worldwide
drilling activity, and the balance relates to the production of oil and gas
reserves.

Products and Technology
Q2 2004 versus Q2 2003
Revenues for the Products and Technology segment increased $37 million, or 12%,
during the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the same quarter in 2003.
Capital equipment revenues were essentially flat but the higher North American
rig count generated growth in our parts, service and rental tools businesses.
Sales of spare parts for drilling equipment increased approximately $15 million,
pumps and related expendable parts were up $10 million and downhole tools and
rentals recorded increases of approximately $5 million.
Despite the higher revenues, operating income declined by $3 million in the
second quarter of 2004 compared to the same quarter in 2003. Margin gains due to
the higher volume was offset by lower margin on certain capital equipment
orders, in part due to higher steel prices, and product mix, resulting in a
gross margin % reduction of 1.3 points. Higher selling and administrative costs,
increased property taxes and insurance coverage costs and depreciation
contributed to the reduced operating income.
Backlog of the Products and Technology capital products was $441 million at June
30, 2004, reflecting an increase of $29 million from the March 31, 2004 level.
Backlog at June 30, 2003 was $366 million. Product in current backlog will be
delivered by the end of 2005.
1st Six Month of 2004 versus 1st Six Months of 2003
Products and Technology segment revenues increased $6 million in the first six
months of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. We recorded a $41 million
decline in capital equipment revenues, primarily due to reduced shipments in the
first quarter of 2004. As expected, we experienced an increase in second quarter
2004 capital equipment revenues and given the current backlog, we anticipate
this higher level of activity to continue in the near term. Sales of drilling
spare parts, expendable pump parts and downhole tools and rentals increased
approximately $24 million, $10 million and $11 million, respectively, as
expected with the increase in the North American rotary rig count.
11
Operating income decreased $20 million in the first half of 2004 compared to the
same period in 2003 primarily due to a 3% reduction in gross margins. Unusually
high costs on several capital equipment orders resulted in the lower overall
margins. Selling and administrative expenses were flat during the first six
months of 2004 as compared to 2003 while property taxes, insurance coverage
costs and depreciation increased approximately $3 million.
Distribution Services
Q2 2004 versus Q2 2003
Distribution Services revenues increased $29 million, or approximately 15%,
during the second quarter of 2004 over the comparable 2003 period as all
geographic regions showed improvement. North American revenues were especially
strong due to the increase in 2004 in the number of active rigs running in the
U.S. and Canada. The fourth quarter 2003 acquisition of Corlac Equipment Ltd.
contributed approximately $9 million to our Canadian revenues in the second
quarter. From a product perspective, maintenance, repair and operating supplies
("MRO") revenues increased approximately $23 million and the sale of parts
manufactured by the Products and Technology segment increased approximately $5
million.
Operating income of $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2004 doubles the prior
year results due to the increased revenue as well as a margin % improvement
resulting from recent price increases on certain products. Operating increases
to run our expanded network amounted to $3 million, and selling and
administrative expenses increased approximately $2 million. The addition of
Corlac contributed $1 million to the second quarter 2004 operating income.
1st Six Month of 2004 versus 1st Six Months of 2003
Revenues for the Distribution Services segment increased $63 million in the
first half of 2004 when compared to the prior year. Revenue in the international
market was up 17%, Canada increased 32% and the U.S. operations reflected an 11%
improvement. The Canadian results include revenues from the Corlac acquisition
of $16 million (representing 60% of the increase). Revenues from the sale of
parts manufactured by the Products & Technology segment increased $9 million
(20%) while the maintenance, repair and operating supplies revenues reflected a
15% improvement from the first six months of 2003. Tubular revenues were higher
by approximately $5 million.
Operating income in the first half of 2004 of $12 million doubled the comparable
period in 2003. Gross margin improvement resulting from the revenue volume
increase and price increases on certain products was offset by higher
administrative expenses to support the global market expansion, and higher
taxes, insurance and bad debt costs. Corlac operating profit for the first six
months of 2004 totaled approximately $1.4 million.
Corporate
Corporate charges represent the unallocated portion of centralized and executive
management costs. These costs have been slightly above the $3 million level
since our last major acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2002 and we expect
spending to approximate this level in the near term.
Interest Expense
12
Interest expense for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004 was
essentially flat, as slightly lower interest rates offset slightly higher
average debt outstanding.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was 29%
compared to 32% for the same period in 2003, reflecting a higher
percentage of earnings in foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates and the
benefit associated with export sales, which is currently the subject of
legislation to repeal these benefits. If repealed and not replaced with similar
benefits, we expect our effective tax rate to increase to 32%.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 2004 we had working capital of $839 million, an increase of $45
million from December 31, 2003. Reduction in the current portion of long-term
debt accounted for $15 million of this increase, as we repaid all of the
Norwegian term loans, and inventory increased $75 million as we position
ourselves for the market upturn and related capital projects. A reduction of $19
million in accounts receivable was offset by a similar reduction in accounts
payable. Cash decreased approximately $12 million during the first six months
ended June 30, 2004.
Total capital expenditures were $14 million during the first six months of 2004
compared to $16 million in the same period of the prior year. The majority of
these capital expenditures represent additions to the downhole rental tool fleet
and enhancements to information management systems. We expect our capital
expenditures in 2004 to total approximately $30 million. We believe we have
sufficient existing manufacturing capacity to meet currently anticipated demand
for our products and services.
In November 2002, we sold $200 million of 5.65% unsecured senior notes due
November 15, 2012. Interest is payable on May 15 and November 15 of each year.
In March 2001, we sold $150 million of 6.50% unsecured senior notes due March
15, 2011, with interest payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year. In
June 1998, we sold $150 million of 6.875% unsecured senior notes due July 1,
2005, with interest payments due on January 1 and July 1.
At June 30, 2004, we had two committed credit facilities, a North American and a
Norwegian facility, totaling $266 million. Both facilities are available for
general corporate purposes and acquisitions, including letters of credit and
performance bonds.
Our North American facility is an unsecured $175 million revolving credit
facility that expires July 31, 2005 with availability up to $50 million for
issuance of letters of credit. At June 30, 2004, borrowings against this
facility totaled $77 million and there were $24 million in outstanding letters
of credit. Interest (1.9% @ June 30, 2004) is based upon prime or Libor plus
0.5% subject to a ratings based grid.
Our Norwegian facility, which expires in 2006, has revolving credit facilities
totaling $91 million, with $36 million available for letter of credit purposes.
At June 30, 2004, there were $19 million in outstanding letters of credit and no
borrowings against this facility. Interest is based upon a pre-agreed percentage
point spread from either the prime interest rate, NIBOR or EURIBOR.
We also have additional uncommitted credit facilities totaling $131 million that
are used primarily for letters of credit, bid bonds and performance bonds. At
June 30, 2004, borrowings against these additional credit facilities totaled $2
million and there were $34 million in outstanding letters of credit and
performance bonds.
The senior notes contain reporting covenants and the credit facilities contain
financial covenants and ratios regarding maximum debt to capital and minimum
interest coverage. We were in compliance with all covenants governing these
facilities at June 30, 2004.
We believe cash generated from operations and amounts available under the credit
facilities and from other sources of debt will be sufficient to fund operations,
working capital needs, capital expenditure requirements
13
and financing obligations. We also believe any significant increase in capital
expenditures caused by any need to increase manufacturing capacity can be funded
from operations or through debt financing.
During the six months ended June 30, 2004, we did not enter into any
transactions, arrangements, or relationships with unconsolidated entities or
other persons which would materially affect liquidity, or the availability of or
requirements for capital resources, from the amounts disclosed in our Form 10-K
for the year ending December 31, 2003.
We intend to pursue additional acquisition candidates, but the timing, size or
success of any acquisition effort and the related potential capital commitments
cannot be predicted. We expect to fund future cash acquisitions primarily with
cash flow from operations and borrowings, including the unborrowed portion of
the credit facility or new debt issuances, but may also issue additional equity
either directly or in connection with acquisitions. There can be no assurance
that additional financing for acquisitions will be available at terms acceptable
to us.
Inflation has not had a significant impact on our operating results or financial
condition in recent years.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Our estimation process generally relates to
potential bad debts, obsolete and slow moving inventory, revenue recognition on
long term contracts, pension plan accounting, value of goodwill and intangible
assets, and deferred income tax accounting. Our estimates are based on
historical experience and on our future expectations that we believe to be
reasonable under the circumstances. The combination of these factors result in
the amounts shown as carrying values of assets and liabilities in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from our current
estimates and those differences may be material.
These estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired,
as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes.
There have been no material changes or developments in our evaluation of the
accounting estimates and the underlying assumptions or methodologies that we
believe to be material to the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as
disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2003.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In May 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Staff
Position ("FSP") 106-2, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the
Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 , which
supercedes FSP 106-1 of the same title issued in January 2004. FSP 106-2 becomes
effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2004.
FSP 106-2 provides guidance on the accounting for the effects of the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the "Act") for
employers that sponsor postretirement health care plans that provide
prescription drug benefits. FSP 106-2 also requires those employers to provide
certain disclosures regarding the effect of the federal subsidy provided by the
Act. We do not expect adoption of FSP No. 106-2 to have a material effect on our
financial condition or results of operations.
During March 2004, the FASB issued an exposure draft of a new standard entitled
Share Based Payment , which would amend SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based
Compensation , and SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows . Among other items, the
new standard would require the expensing of stock options issued by the company
in the financial statements. The new standard, as proposed, would be effective
January 1, 2005, for calendar year companies. See Note 2 for pro forma
disclosures regarding the effect on income from continuing operations and
earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of
the exposure draft and SFAS No. 123. Depending on the model used to calculate
stock-based compensation expense in the future, the pro forma disclosure in Note
2 may not be indicative of the stock-based compensation expense to be recognized
in future financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some of the information in this document contains, or has incorporated by
reference, forward-looking statements. Statements that are not historical facts,
including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by use of terms
such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," and similar words,
although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. You should
be aware that our actual results could differ materially from results
anticipated in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors,
including but not limited to changes in oil and gas prices, customer demand for
our products and worldwide economic activity. You should also consider carefully
the statements under "Risk Factors," as disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year
ending December 31, 2003, which address additional factors that could cause our
actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Given these uncertainties, current or prospective investors are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. We undertake no
obligation to update any such factors or forward-looking statements to reflect
future events or developments.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.
Additional information concerning each of these matters follows:
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
We have operations in foreign countries, including Canada, Norway and the United
Kingdom, as well as operations in Latin America, China and other European
countries. The net assets and liabilities of these operations are exposed to
changes in foreign currency exchange rates, although such fluctuations generally
do not affect income since their functional currency is the local currency.
These operations also have net assets and liabilities not denominated in the
local currency, which exposes us to changes in foreign currency exchange rates
that do impact income. We recorded foreign exchange gains in our income
statement of approximately $1.0 million in the first six months of 2004,
compared to $3.3 million in foreign exchange losses in the same period of the
prior year. We do not believe that a hypothetical 10% movement in these foreign
currencies would have a material impact on our earnings.
Some of our revenues in foreign countries are denominated in US dollars, and
therefore, changes in foreign currency exchange rates impact our earnings to the
extent that costs associated with those US dollar revenues are denominated in
the local currency. In order to mitigate that risk, we may utilize foreign
currency forward contracts to better match the currency of our revenues and
associated costs. We do not use foreign currency forward contracts for trading
or speculative purposes. The counterparties to these contracts are major
financial institutions, which minimizes counterparty credit risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Our long term borrowings consist of $150 million in 6.875% senior notes, $150
million in 6.5% senior notes and $200 million in 5.65% senior notes. We also
have borrowings under our other facilities totaling $79 million at June 30, 2004
(weighted average interest rate of 2.2% at June 30, 2004). A portion of the
borrowings are denominated in multiple currencies which could expose us to
market risk with exchange rate movements. These instruments carry interest at a
pre-agreed upon percentage point spread from either the prime interest rate,
LIBOR, NIBOR or EURIBOR. Under our credit facilities, we may, at our option, fix
the interest rate for certain borrowings based on a spread over LIBOR, NIBOR or
EURIBOR for 30 days to 6 months. Based upon our June 30, 2004 borrowings under
our variable rate facilities of $79 million, an immediate change of one percent
in the interest rate would cause a change in annual interest expense of
approximately $0.8 million. Our objective in maintaining a portion of
15
our debt in variable rate borrowings is the flexibility obtained regarding early
repayment without penalties and lower overall cost as compared with fixed-rate
borrowings.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Within 90 days before filing this report, we carried out an evaluation, under
the supervision and with the participation of the company's management,
including the company's President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the
company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the
company's President and Chief Executive Officer along with the company's Chief
Financial Officer concluded that the company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information
relating to the company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be
included in the company's periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of
our evaluation.
