Halliburton Announces Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Halliburton Company (NYSE: HAL) announced today net income of $615 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024. This compares to net income for the third quarter of 2024 of $571 million, or $0.65 per diluted share. Adjusted net income2 in the third quarter of 2024, excluding impairments and other charges and tax adjustments, was $641 million, or $0.73 per diluted share. Halliburton’s total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $5.6 billion, compared to total revenue of $5.7 billion in the third quarter of 2024. Operating income was $932 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to operating income of $871 million in the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted operating income3, excluding impairments and other charges, was $987 million in the third quarter of 2024. Total revenue for the full year of 2024 was $22.9 billion, flat compared to 2023. Operating income for 2024 was $3.8 billion, compared to 2023 operating income of $4.1 billion. Adjusted operating income, excluding impairments and other charges, for the full year of 2024 was $3.9 billion. "I am pleased with our performance in 2024. We generated over $2.6 billion dollars of free cash flow, and returned over $1.6 billion dollars of cash to our shareholders," commented Jeff Miller, Chairman, President and CEO. "While we expect 2025 to be sequentially softer in North America, we begin the second half of this decade in a great position, with a transformed balance sheet, leading returns, and strong free cash flow. "I am excited about the long term outlook for Halliburton. I expect to execute our value proposition, deepen our technology portfolio, and drive value through our growth engines: drilling technology, unconventionals, well intervention, and artificial lift," concluded Miller. Operating Segments Completion and Production Completion and Production revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $3.2 billion, a decrease of $121 million, or 4% sequentially, while operating income was $629 million, a decrease of $40 million, or 6%. These results were primarily driven by lower stimulation activity in North America and decreased pressure pumping services in Latin America. Partially offsetting these decreases were higher year-end completion tool sales and improved artificial lift activity in North America and the Middle East, and increased stimulation activity in Africa and the Middle East. Drilling and Evaluation Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $2.4 billion, while operating income was $401 million, both flat sequentially. Increased fluid services in the Middle East and Europe/Africa, improved drilling-related services in the North Sea, and improved software sales internationally were offset by decreased drilling services in the Middle East and Latin America, and decreased wireline activity globally. Geographic Regions North America North America revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $2.2 billion, a 7% decrease sequentially. This decline was primarily driven by lower stimulation activity and decreased fluid services in U.S. land and Canada, along with lower wireline activity in U.S. land. Partially offsetting these declines were increased fluid activities in the Gulf of Mexico, improved drilling services in U.S. land, and higher artificial lift activity and increased completion tool sales in the region. International International revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $3.4 billion, an increase of 3% sequentially. Latin America revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $953 million, a decrease of 9% sequentially. This decrease was primarily due to lower activity across multiple product lines in Mexico and decreased pressure pumping services and lower wireline activity in Argentina. Partially offsetting these decreases were higher activity across multiple product lines in Brazil and increased fluid services in Argentina and the Caribbean. Europe/Africa revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $795 million, an increase of 10% sequentially. This increase was primarily due to improved drilling-related services in the North Sea, as well as increased pressure pumping services and higher fluid services in Africa. Partially offsetting these increases were lower cementing activity and decreased pipeline services in the North Sea and decreased drilling services in West Africa. Middle East/Asia revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $1.6 billion, an increase of 7% sequentially. This increase was primarily due to higher stimulation activity and increased fluid services in the Middle East, higher completion tool sales in Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates, and improved drilling services throughout Asia. Partially offsetting these improvements were decreased drilling services in the Middle East and lower fluid services in Asia. Other Financial Items During the fourth quarter of 2024, Halliburton: Repurchased approximately $309 million of its common stock. Repurchased approximately $100 million of debt across multiple senior notes. Paid dividends of $0.17 per share. Spent $33 million on SAP S4 migration.
