Patterson-UTI Energy Reports Financial Results for Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
HOUSTON, Texas – July 25, 2013 – PATTERSON-UTI ENERGY, INC. (NASDAQ: PTEN) today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The Company reported net income of $40.8 million, or $0.28 per share, for the second quarter of 2013, compared to net income of $92.5 million, or $0.60 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2012. Revenues for the second quarter of 2013 were $659 million, compared to $681 million for the second quarter of 2012.
The Company reported net income of $97.0 million, or $0.66 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to net income of $190 million, or $1.22 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $1.3 billion, compared to $1.4 billion for the same period in 2012.
The financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2012 include a pretax gain on the sale of assets of $27.2 million ($17.2 million after-tax) related to the sale of the Company’s flowback operations and the auction sale of certain excess drilling assets.
Andy Hendricks, Patterson-UTI’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Although utilization of our APEX® rigs remained high in the second quarter, lower utilization levels of conventional rigs and the seasonal decline in Canada affected our rig count. Our operating rig count averaged 183 in the United States and 2 in Canada during the second quarter, compared to 188 rigs in the United States and 11 in Canada during the first quarter.”
Mr. Hendricks added, “The greater proportion in our rig count of higher-dayrate APEX® rigs positively affected average revenue per day in the United States during the second quarter, which improved on a sequential basis to $22,990 despite a greater benefit in the first quarter from lump-sum early termination revenues. The seasonal slowdown in Canadian activity negatively impacted our total average revenue per day, which was $23,120 during the second quarter, compared to $23,410 during the first quarter.
“The seasonal slowdown in Canada, combined with increased rig operating costs in the United States and a decrease in lump-sum early termination revenues in the second quarter, negatively impacted average margin per operating day, which was $8,730 during the second quarter, compared to $9,610 during the first quarter. The increase in rig operating costs was related to a rig utilization schedule that included rigs moving between regions and some rigs stacking while others were being activated. The continued improvement of our preventive maintenance process also had some associated costs.
“During the second half of this year, we expect to recognize early termination revenues totaling approximately $60 million related to the early termination of term contracts for 6 rigs. I am very pleased that with the strong demand for APEX® rigs we are seeing in the market, we were quickly able to contract these rigs with other customers, and therefore the impact to our utilization from the early termination should be negligible.
“We completed 3 new APEX® rigs during the second quarter, all of which are working under term contracts. Demand for new APEX® rigs has recently increased, and we have now contracted all 13 rigs that are included in our 2013 budget.
“During the second quarter we signed 25 term contracts, and as of June 30, 2013, we had term contracts for drilling rigs providing for approximately $1.05 billion of dayrate drilling revenue. Based on contracts currently in place, we expect an average of 121 rigs operating under term contracts during the third quarter, and an average of 113 rigs operating under term contracts during the second half of 2013. For the month of July, we expect to average approximately 181 rigs operating in the United States and 8 rigs operating in Canada.
“In pressure pumping, we generated record quarterly revenues of $255 million during the second quarter, as we realized the full impact of equipment activated during the first quarter. Sequentially, pressure pumping revenues increased 10%, providing for a 6% sequential increase in pressure pumping EBITDA to $62.0 million,” he concluded.
Mark S. Siegel, Chairman of Patterson-UTI, stated, “The second quarter did not unfold as we expected, but there were a number of bright spots on which we continue to build. Demand continues to be strong for our APEX® rigs, as we had a record number of active APEX® rigs during the second quarter. Additionally, in pressure pumping, we generated our third consecutive quarter of revenue growth.
“Our outlook remains positive as we have seen an increase in contracting activity in recent weeks. We have contracted our remaining newbuild APEX® rigs for this year, and we were quickly able to contract the 6 rigs that are being early terminated. I believe the high level of demand for APEX® rigs and their industry-leading utilization level in the U.S. is a testament to the quality of our APEX® rigs and our employees.
“In pressure pumping, we have performed well despite challenging market conditions, and I believe we are well positioned to benefit when this market comes back into balance. We continue to innovate new ways to deliver value to our customers, including operating what we believe to be the largest bi-fuel fracturing fleet in the Marcellus, which has been working continuously since early in the year.
“We continue to focus on being good stewards of capital, and we are proud of our track record. We continue to evaluate potential uses of capital including the profitable growth of the Company and the return of capital to shareholders when appropriate,” he concluded.
The Company declared a quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of $0.05 per share, to be paid on September 30, 2013 to holders of record as of September 16, 2013.
