Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) 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 of National Oilwell Varco, Inc. (“NOV” or the “Company”) present information in accordance with GAAP 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 GAAP in the United States for complete consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements in order for them to conform with the current presentation. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and payables approximated fair value because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments. Cash equivalents include only those investments having a maturity date of three months or less at the time of purchase. See Note 7 for the fair value of long-term debt and Note 10 for the fair value of derivative financial instruments.

Inventories consist of (in millions):

Accrued liabilities consist of (in millions):

Warranties

The Company provides warranties on certain of its products and services. The Company accrues warranty liability based upon specific claims and a review of historical claim experience in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 450 “Contingencies”. Adjustments are made to accruals as claim data and historical experience change. In addition, the Company incurs discretionary costs to service its products in connection with product performance issues and accrues for them when they are encountered.

The changes in the warranty provision are as follows (in millions):

The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are as follows (in millions):

The components of amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are as follows (in millions):

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. For a majority of the Company’s international entities in which there is a substantial investment, the local currency is their functional currency. As a result, currency translation adjustments resulting from the

7

process of translating the entities’ financial statements into the reporting currency are reported in other comprehensive income or loss in accordance with ASC Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters” (“ASC Topic 830”). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, a majority of these local currencies weakened against the U.S. dollar resulting in net other comprehensive losses of $32 million and $219 million, respectively, upon the translation from local currencies to the U.S. dollar. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, a majority of these local currencies strengthened against the U.S. dollar resulting in net other comprehensive income of $124 million and $290 million, respectively, upon the translation from local currencies to the U.S. Due to the sale of a non-core industrial business, $6 million of currency translation losses were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

The effect of changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are accumulated in other comprehensive income or loss, net of tax, until the underlying transactions they hedge are realized. The movement in other comprehensive income or loss from period to period will be the result of the combination of changes in fair value of open derivatives and the outflow of other comprehensive income or loss related to cumulative changes in the fair value of derivatives that have settled in the current period. The accumulated effect was other comprehensive income of $2 million (net of tax of $0) and $1 million (net of tax of $0) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The accumulated effect was other comprehensive income of $25 million (net of tax of $8 million) and $53 million (net of tax of $15 million) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.
