NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, RELATED RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pertaining to interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all information or footnote disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto in our ~~2024~~2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other current filings with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of those of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the results of the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods presented may not necessarily be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Table of Contents

Principles of Consolidation

The Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of H&P and its domestic and foreign subsidiaries. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company gains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income, expenses and other comprehensive income or loss of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the fiscal year are included in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. The equity attributable to non-controlling interests in subsidiaries is shown separately in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with banks and all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are subject to potential credit risk, and certain of our cash accounts carry balances greater than the federally insured limits.

As of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and September 30, ~~2024~~2025, restricted cash was $6132.13 million and $129.31 ~~billion~~million, respectively. Of the total at ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and September 30, ~~2024~~2025, $5930.49 million and $6827.94 million, respectively, represents the amount management has elected to restrict for the purpose of potential insurance claims in our wholly-owned captive insurance companies. Additionally, of the total at September 30, 2024, $1.2 billion represents net proceeds from senior notes issued in fiscal year 2024 to finance the purchase price of the entire issued share capital (the "Acquisition") of KCA Deutag International Limited ("KCA Deutag") and to repay certain of KCA Deutag's outstanding indebtedness. ~~and~~These ~~was~~proceeds were subsequently used during the ~~nine~~fiscal ~~months~~year ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2025 to fund the Acquisition. ~~For additional information regarding the completion of the Acquisition, refer to Note 3—Business Combination.~~ The restricted amounts are primarily invested in short-term money market securities.

In October 2022, we made a $14.1 million equity investment, representing 106.0 million common shares in Tamboran Resources Limited ("Tamboran Resources"). In December 2023, all shares of Tamboran Resources were transferred to Tamboran Corp. in exchange for depository interests in Tamboran Corp. Depository interests, referred to as CHESS Depository Interests, each representing beneficial interests of 1/200th of a share of Tamboran Corp. common stock, are listed on the Australian Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "TBN." Tamboran Corp. is focused on developing a natural gas resource in Australia's Beetaloo Sub-basin.

On June 4, 2024, the Company entered into a convertible note agreement with Tamboran Corp. This note was utilized to relieve Tamboran's outstanding accounts receivable balance owed to the Company, and therefore no cash was exchanged as part of the transaction. The convertible note agreement provided that the notes converted into shares of common stock of Tamboran Corp. under certain circumstances in connection with an initial public offering in which its stock was listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") or NASDAQ Stock Exchange. On June 26, 2024, Tamboran Corp. completed an initial public offering of its common stock on the NYSE and its common stock is listed on the NYSE, under the ticker "TBN". As a result of this offering, the convertible note of $9.4 million was converted into 0.5 million common shares of Tamboran Corp. Additionally and separately, one of our executive officers served as a director of Tamboran Corp until his resignation in July 2025. Refer to Note 12—Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments for additional information related to our investment.

Concurrent with the October 2022 investment agreement, we entered into a fixed-term drilling services agreement with Tamboran Resources. As of June 30, 2025, we recorded $0.9 million in receivables and $4.3 million in contract liabilities on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2024, we recorded $5.0 million in receivables and $3.9 million in contract liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recognized $3.1 million and $11.3 million in revenue on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, related to the drilling services agreement with Tamboran Resources, compared to $2.9 million and $9.9 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. We expect to earn $30.7 million in revenue over the remaining contract term, and, as such, this amount is included within our contract backlog as of June 30, 2025.

Change in Accounting Estimate

In accordance with its policy, the Company reviews the estimated useful lives of its fixed assets and intangible assets on an ongoing basis. As a result of this review, based on events occurring during the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company adjusted the estimated useful life of the intangible assets arising from the Acquisition. The weighted average useful life for customer relationships decreased from 15 years to 9 years. This change was effective and accounted for prospectively beginning on April 1, 2025. The effects of this change in the estimated useful life for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, was an increase in amortization expense of $7.8 million, a decrease in net income of $6.2 million, and a decrease to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.06.

Recently Issued Accounting Updates

Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable, clarifications of ASUs listed below, immaterial, or already adopted by the Company.

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements and our analysis of the effects on our financial statements:

Standard	Description	Date ofAdoption	Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
Standards that are not yet adopted as of June 30, 2025
Standards that are not yet adopted as of December 31, 2025
ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures	This ASU improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in this update enhance annual and interim disclosure requirements, determine significant segment expense, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024.	September 30, 2025	We plan to adopt this ASU, as required, during fiscal year 2025, with the first disclosure enhancements reflected in our fiscal year 2025 Form 10-K. The adoption requires us to provide additional disclosures related to our segments, but otherwise it does not materially impact our financial statements.
ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures	This ASU enhances income tax disclosure requirements. Under the ASU, public business entities must annually (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). Specific categories that must be included in the reconciliation for each annual reporting period are specified in the amendment. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted. Upon adoption, the amendments shall be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted.	September 30, 2026	We plan to adopt this ASU, as required, during fiscal year 2026, with the first disclosure enhancements reflected in our fiscal year 2026 Form 10-K. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on our disclosures.
ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement -- Reporting Comprehensive Income -- Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40)	This ASU enhances disclosure requirements for certain costs and expenses. The amendments in this update enhance annual and interim disclosure requirements, certain liability-related expenses, expense reimbursements related to a cost-sharing or cost-reimbursement arrangement with another entity, and the disaggregation of relevant expense captions. This update gives entities the ability to use estimates or other methods that produce a reasonable approximation of the amounts required to be disclosed. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the amendments shall be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this Update or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements.	September 30, 2028	We plan to adopt this ASU, as required, during fiscal year 2028 with the first disclosure enhancements reflected in our 2028 fiscal year Form 10-K. We are currently evaluating the impact the new guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Self-Insurance

We continue to use our captive insurance companies to ~~insure~~fund the self-insured retentions ("SIRs") and deductibles for our domestic workers’ compensation, general liability, automobile liability claims programs, ~~and~~ medical stop-loss program, and tocertain ~~insure the deductibles from the Company's~~ international casualty and property programs. Our operating subsidiaries are paying premiums to the Captives, typically on a monthly basis, for the estimated losses based on an external actuarial analysis. These premiums are currently held in a restricted cash account, resulting in a transfer of risk from our operating subsidiaries to the Captives. Direct operating costs ~~primarily~~ consisted primarily of adjustments ~~of $29.3 million and $5.3 million~~ to accruals for estimated losses ~~for~~of ~~the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and~~ $433.5 million and $103.49 million ~~for the nine months ended June 30, 2025~~ and ~~2024, respectively, and~~ rig and casualty insurance premiums of $1011.15 million and $910.5 million during the three months ended ~~June~~December ~~30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $~~31~~.8 million and $28.5 million for the nine months ended June 30~~, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Foreign Currencies

The reporting and functional currency of the parent company, H&P, is the United States Dollar ("USD"). Our foreign subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). For some of our foreign subsidiaries, functional currency is not measured in U.S. Dollars, and, instead, is ~~equal to~~ the local currency. On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of our non U.S. Dollar functional entities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the reporting period. Translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and are included in Other comprehensive income or loss on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

For foreign subsidiaries where the functional currency is the USD, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, while non-monetary items are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are remeasured at the average exchange rates prevailing during the reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from remeasurement are included within Foreign currency exchange gain (loss) on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Prior to the three months ended March 31, 2025, foreign currency exchange gains and losses were presented in the operating costs and expense line items to which they relate, namely within Drilling services operating expenses, on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. To conform with the current period presentation, we reclassified amounts previously presented in separate line items within operating costs and expenses to the Foreign currency exchange gain (loss) line on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2024. The impact of this change was not material to any period presented.

International ~~Drilling~~Operations Risks

International drilling operations may significantly contribute to our revenues and net operating income (loss). There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully conduct such operations, and a failure to do so may have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Also, the success of our international operations will be subject to numerous contingencies, some of which are beyond management’s control. These contingencies include general and regional economic conditions, geopolitical developments and tensions, war and uncertainty in oil-producing countries, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, foreign currency exchange restrictions and other difficulties repatriating cash from foreign countries, changes in international regulatory requirements and international employment issues, risk of expropriation of real and personal property and the burden of complying with foreign laws. Additionally, in the event that extended labor strikes occur or a country experiences significant political, economic or social instability, we could experience shortages in labor and/or material and supplies necessary to operate some of our drilling rigs, thereby potentially causing an adverse material effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Because of the impact of local laws, some of our current operations and potential future operations in certain areas may be conducted through entities in which local citizens own interests. Additionally, these operations might involve entities (including joint ventures) where we hold only a minority interest or where operations are carried out under contracts with local entities. While we believe that neither operating through such entities nor pursuant to such arrangements would have a material adverse effect on our operations or revenues, there can be no assurance that we will in all cases be able to structure or restructure our operations to conform to local law (or the administration thereof) on terms acceptable to us.

Q3Approximately 41.2 ~~FY25~~percent ~~FORM~~and ~~10-Q | 13~~7.2 percent of our operating revenues were generated from international locations during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The majority of our operating revenues in the Middle East were from operations in Saudi Arabia and Oman. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, a single customer in Saudi Arabia accounted for 6.5 percent of our total consolidated operating revenues. This customer has the ability to suspend rigs and a portion of our rigs with this customer are currently suspended. The future occurrence of one or more international events arising from the types of risks described above could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

~~NOTE~~Property, 3plant ~~BUSINESS~~and ~~COMBINATION~~equipment as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025 consisted of the following:

On January 16, 2025 (the “Closing Date” or "Acquisition Date"), H&P and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries completed the previously announced agreement to acquire KCA Deutag. Upon closing, H&P paid aggregate cash consideration of approximately $2.0 billion, which consisted of the share purchase price of $0.9 billion and $1.1 billion which was used to contemporaneously repay or redeem certain of KCA Deutag's existing debt, including, as applicable, the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest, premiums, and fees.

Of the $0.9 billion, approximately $80.0 million was deposited into a customary escrow on the Closing Date pending the resolution of certain potential tax obligations of KCA Deutag. In May 2025, these escrowed funds were subsequently released to the shareholders following a determination that KCA Deutag would not be liable for the identified obligations. As part of this release, H&P received approximately $5.2 million, primarily attributable to favorable movements in the euro foreign exchange rate since the Closing Date. This amount is reported within Foreign currency exchange loss in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025.

To finance the purchase price and to pay related fees and expenses, we completed a private offering of $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes, together with the proceeds of a term loan credit agreement, cash on hand, and monetization of our investment in ADNOC Drilling. Refer to Note 7—Debt for further details on the senior notes and term loan credit agreement.

The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their Acquisition Date fair values. Determining the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities assumed requires the use of independent valuation specialists and the use of significant estimates and assumptions with respect to future rig counts, estimated economic useful lives, operating and capital cost estimates, and a weighted average discount rate reflecting the cost of capital for market participants of 11.0 percent. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, deferred income, contingent liabilities, and provisions and other payables approximate their fair values due to their nature. The remaining assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 inputs. The purchase price allocation presented below is preliminary, as certain data necessary to complete the purchase price allocation is not yet available, including, but not limited to, the final valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, working capital adjustments, and valuation of deferred taxes. Management is also evaluating certain assumptions of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and may adjust the allocation in subsequent periods. The final valuation will be completed no later than one year from the Acquisition Date.

(1)The preliminary estimated fair value of accounts receivable is $367.2 million, with the gross contractual amount being $381.3 million. The Company estimates $14.1 million to be uncollectible.

Inventory

Inventory includes materials, supplies and spare parts used as part of contract drilling operations and was valued at fair value using a replacement cost approach.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a measurement period adjustment that increased the estimated fair value of inventory by $2.0 million.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment consists primarily of drilling rigs and equipment and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. These assets were valued using a combination of replacement cost and a market approach.

Q3 FY25 FORM 10-Q | 15

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets included in the Acquisition consist of developed technology, customer relationships, a trade name, and in-process research and development. The fair values were determined using a combination of the income and market approach. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a measurement period adjustment that increased the estimated fair value of intangible assets by $2.0 million.

These assets will be amortized over their respective periods of expected benefit. Refer to Note 6—Goodwill and Intangible Assets for estimated amortization expense over the next five years. The preliminary values assigned to each intangible asset and the corresponding preliminary useful lives, as of the Acquisition Date, are as follows:

(in thousands)	Amount		Weighted Average Useful life(Years)
Customer relationships	$	432,200	9 years
Trade name	10,860		10 years
Developed technology	21,420		11 years
In-process research and development	6,183		Indefinite
Estimated fair value of acquired intangible assets	$	470,663

As of June 30, 2025, the acquired customer relationships had a weighted average remaining term of 2.7 years until their next contract renewal or extension.

Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets

In connection with the Acquisition, we acquired operating lease right-of-use assets and a corresponding current and noncurrent liability as summarized below:

(in thousands)	Amount
Real estate properties	$	35,333
Drilling equipment	11,944
Total Operating lease right-of-use asset	47,277
Current portion of lease liabilities within Accounts payable and Accrued liabilities	$	19,964
Noncurrent portion of operating lease liabilities within Other noncurrent liabilities	36,920

We measured the lease liability at the present value of the remaining lease payments, applying a weighted average discount rate of 5.6 percent, as if the acquired lease was a new lease of H&P at the Acquisition Date. The right-of-use asset was measured at the same amount as the lease liability and adjusted by $9.8 million to reflect unfavorable terms of the leases when compared to market terms. We have elected to apply the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption to leases that have a remaining lease term of 12 months or less at the Acquisition Date. The weighted average remaining lease term for the acquired leases is approximately 10.8 years as of June 30, 2025 .

Goodwill

The amount of goodwill recognized in the Acquisition represents the excess of the gross consideration transferred and the amount of any non-controlling interest over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is attributed to the assembled workforce, anticipated operational synergies, and the allocation of proceeds in excess of the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill arising from the Acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax reporting purposes. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, certain measurement period adjustments were made to the fair value of inventory and intangible assets (as discussed above) resulting in a $4.0 million decrease in goodwill. Separately, during the same period, we recognized an impairment of a portion of the goodwill arising from the Acquisition. Refer to Note 6—Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional details.

Long-Term Debt

As discussed above, we paid $1.1 billion to contemporaneously repay or redeem certain of KCA Deutag's existing debt upon consummation of the acquisition. As of the Closing Date, we assumed an aggregate $84.9 million in secured term loan borrowings comprised of two separate agreements as summarized in Note 7—Debt—2024 KCA Deutag Oman Facility and —2023 KCA Deutag Oman Facility.

End-of-Service Benefit Plans

As a result of the Acquisition, we assumed a liability of $39.6 million related to end-of-service benefit plans. This liability arises from KCA Deutag's compliance with local legislation in various Middle Eastern and South American countries, where end-of-service benefit plans are mandated. These plans require payments to employees upon the conclusion of their service, calculated based on their most recent salary and years of service. These plans are not pre-funded. A significant portion of this liability stems from operations in the Middle East for which we relied on independent actuaries to assess the value of these obligations. The primary costs associated with these plans include the present value of benefits accrued for an additional year of service and the interest on the obligation related to employee service in previous years. This liability is presented within Accrued liabilities on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

As a result of the Acquisition, we now maintain pension plans in Germany and the United Kingdom "UK". Refer to Note 13—Employee Benefit Plans for additional details.

Non-controlling Interest

The non-controlling interests acquired represents the portion of certain consolidated subsidiaries that are owned by third-parties and are recorded at estimated fair market value. The non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component of equity in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and the consolidated net income attributable to non-controlling interests is disclosed separately in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Results of Operations

KCA Deutag's results of operations for its land operations and offshore management contract operations are reported within our International Solutions and Offshore Solutions operating segments, respectively. KCA Deutag's manufacturing and engineering operations results are included in "Other". The results of operations attributable to the Acquisition have been included in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of the acquisition, on January 16, 2025, through June 30, 2025. Revenue and net loss attributable to the net assets acquired for the period January 16, 2025 through June 30, 2025, were $669.2 million and $253.2 million, respectively.

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized approximately $8.6 million and $49.0 million, respectively, in acquisition transaction costs associated with the Acquisition, as compared to $6.7 million and $7.5 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. These non-recurring costs are primarily related to third-party legal, advisory and valuation services and are included in Acquisition transaction costs on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The supplemental pro forma financial information presented below is for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been realized if the Acquisition had been completed on the date indicated, does not reflect synergies that might have been achieved, and is not indicative of future results of operations.

The summarized unaudited pro forma financial information reflects several adjustments to reflect preliminary purchase price accounting and differences in accounting policies between International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and U.S. GAAP. These adjustments account for incremental depreciation and amortization expenses based on the fair value of KCA Deutag’s assets, the elimination of interest expenses from KCA Deutag’s historical borrowings, and the addition of H&P debt to fund the acquisition. The pro forma adjustments are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that H&P believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The tax impact of these adjustments was determined using statutory tax rates.

The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information presents results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, as if we had completed the Acquisition on October 1, 2023:

Depreciation

Depreciation expense during the three months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and 2024 was $~~160~~162.85 million and $9697.20 million, including abandonments of $0.1 million ~~during each respective period.

In November 2022, a fire at a wellsite caused substantial damage to one of our super-spec rigs within our North America Solutions segment. The major components were destroyed beyond repair and considered a total loss, and, as a result, these assets were written off and the rig was removed from our available rig count. At the time of the loss, the rig was fully insured under replacement cost insurance. During the nine months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized a gain on involuntary conversion of the rig of $5.5 million which represents the insurance proceeds received in excess of the carrying value of the rig and therefore was recognized as a gain within operating income during the nine months ended June 30, 2024.

Assets Held-for-Sale

~~During~~The ~~the~~following ~~three~~is ~~months ended June 30, 2025, we committed to~~ a ~~plan~~summary ~~to sell a significant portion~~ of ~~our real estate portfolio, including a shopping center comprised of approximately 371,000 leasable square feet with a net book value of $11.0 million.

~~Lease~~During ~~Position~~the three months ended December 31, 2025, we committed to a plan to scrap 30 rigs and auxiliary equipment within our North America Solutions segment and three rigs within our Offshore Solutions segment as part of our strategy to right size our fleet and reduce expenses. Of the 30 North America Solutions rigs, 10 were previously decommissioned. The book values of those assets in our North America Solutions and Offshore Solutions segments were written down to the fair value less estimated cost to sell, and were reclassified as held-for-sale during the three months ended December 31, 2025. As a result, we recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $97.9 million and $2.1 million in the North America Solutions and Offshore Solutions segments respectively, during the three months ended December 31, 2025, in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2025, the aggregate net book value of North America Solutions and Offshore Solutions assets classified as held-for-sale was $4.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we identified six land rigs, inventory, and auxiliary assets within our International Solutions operating segment that met the asset held-for-sale criteria with an aggregate net book value of $6.4 million. The carrying amounts of these assets were determined to be equal to their estimated fair values; therefore, no impairment charge was recognized. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we completed the disposal of a portion of the International Solution assets that had been classified as held-for-sale as of September 30, 2025. The assets had a net book value of $1.3 million, resulting in a $0.3 million gain during three months ended December 31, 2025. Gains related to the disposal of these assets are recorded in Other loss on sale of assets within our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Lease Obligations

Future minimum rental payments required under operating leases having initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year at June 30, 2025 (in thousands) are as follows:

Fiscal Year	Amount
Remainder of 2025	$	9,104

(1)Our future minimum rental payments exclude optional extensions that have not been exercised but are probable to be exercised in the future. Those probable extensions are included in the operating lease liability balance.

Of the $155.8 million of future minimum rental payments, $61.8 million is attributable to our recently acquired subsidiary, KCA Deutag.

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, we amended the lease for our Tulsa industrial facility. As part of the amendment, we extended the lease term, now continuing through June 30, 2035 with two five-year renewal options, resulting in an increase of $18.1 million to the right-of-use assets and lease liability on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. We recognized one of the five-year renewal options as part of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. This contract is accounted for as an operating lease. The future minimum lease payments for the Tulsa industrial facility represent a material portion of the amounts shown in the table above.

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, we amended the lease for our Tulsa corporate headquarters, resulting in a $5.9 million increase to right-of-use assets and lease liability on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The additional right of use asset will be amortized over the remaining 11 years of the original lease term. The future minimum lease payments for our corporate headquarters office space represent a material portion of the amounts shown in the table above.

NOTE 6 GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Due to the Acquisition, we recognized increases to our goodwill and intangible assets balances as of June 30, 2025. The goodwill and intangible assets recognized as a result of the Acquisition are considered preliminary. The purchase price allocation may be subject to future adjustments due to the final valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, working capital adjustments, and the valuation of deferred taxes, and any such future adjustments may be recognized in earnings immediately as an adjustment to the impairment charge discussed below. The final valuation will be completed within the measurement period, no later than one year from the Acquisition Date, as allowed by ASC 805. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded certain measurement period adjustments that increased the fair value of inventory and intangible assets each by $2.0 million and decreased goodwill by $4.0 million. For additional information regarding the completion of the Acquisition, refer to Note 3—Business Combination.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for potential impairment at the reporting unit level, at a minimum on an annual basis in the fourth fiscal quarter, or when indications of potential impairment exist. Our reporting units with goodwill are H&P Technologies, ~~International~~(within ~~Solutions,~~our ~~Offshore~~North America Solutions, segment) and ~~Kenera.~~Offshore Solutions.

During the third fiscal quarter of 2025, due primarily to the sustained decline in our share price and market capitalization, we identified indicators of potential impairment of goodwill and performed an interim impairment test. We estimated the fair value of each reporting unit using a market approach, incorporating significant unobservable, or Level 3, inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy. We employed a combination of the guideline public company method and the guideline transactions method, leveraging company comparisons and analyst reports from the energy industry, which supported a range of fair values derived from annualized earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") multiples between 2.5x and 5.5x for guideline public companies and between 3.4x and 7.6x for guideline transactions. We then derived an estimated fair value of each reporting unit based on an EBITDA multiple at or below the peer-median trading multiple.

Q3 FY25 FORM 10-Q | 20

Table of Contents

Based on our interim goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2025, we concluded that the International Solutions and Kenera reporting units' carrying value exceeded their respective estimated fair value. As a result, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $128.4 million and $44.9 million, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2025, which represented a full impairment of the goodwill allocated to these reporting units. The estimated fair values of our H&P Technologies and Offshore Solutions reporting units as of June 30, 2025 exceeded their respective carrying values by approximately 76 percent and 20 percent, respectively. These estimates reflect management’s best judgments as of June 30, 2025; however, changes in key assumptions or market conditions could yield materially different outcomes. We will continue to monitor events and circumstances that may affect fair values.

The following table sets forth our goodwill balance by segment for the periods indicated:

Senior Notes Issued in Fiscal Year 2024

On September 17, 2024, we completed a private offering of $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes, comprised of the following tranches (collectively, the “Notes”): $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.65 percent senior notes due 2027 issued at a price equal to 99.958 percent of their face value, $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.85 percent senior notes due 2029 issued at a price equal to 99.883 percent of their face value and $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50 percent senior notes due 2034 issued at a price equal to 99.670 percent of their face value. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2025.

On January 16, 2025, H&P completed the Acquisition, and the Company used the net proceeds of the Notes, together with the proceeds of its term loan credit agreement (discussed below) and cash on hand, to finance the purchase price for the Acquisition, to repay or redeem certain of KCA Deutag’s outstanding indebtedness, and to pay related fees and expenses. For additional information regarding the completion of the Acquisition, refer to Note 3—Business Combination.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of September 17, 2024 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), with the initial purchasers of the Notes named therein. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed, among other things, to use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, and cause to be declared effective, a registration statement with respect to an offer to exchange each series of the Notes for freely tradable notes (“Registered Notes”) having terms identical in all material respects to each such series of Notes (the “Registered Exchange Offer”). Accordingly, on May 15, 2025, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC, which was declared effective on May 28, 2025. On May 28, 2025, the Company launched the Registered Exchange Offer, which expired on July 10, 2025. Substantially all of the Notes were tendered and exchanged for Registered Notes in the Exchange Offer.

The indenture governing the Notes contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur certain liens; engage in sale and lease-back transactions; and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. The indenture governing the Notes also contains customary events of default with respect to the Notes.

The indenture governing the 2031 Notes also contains customary events of default with respect to the 2031 Notes.

Term Loan Credit Agreement

On August 14, 2024, the Company entered into an unsecured term loan credit agreement (the "Term Loan Credit Agreement"), among the Company, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (“MSSF”) as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto. On the Closing Date, the Company drew an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million under the Term Loan Credit Agreement for purposes of financing the Acquisition. The Term Loan Credit Agreement matures at the two-year anniversary of the funding of the term loans unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Credit Agreement. On January 16, 2025, H&P completed the Acquisition, and the Company used the proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Agreement, together with the net proceeds from the Notes, and cash on hand, to finance the purchase price for the Acquisition, to repay or redeem certain of KCA Deutag's outstanding indebtedness, and to pay related fees and expenses. ~~For additional information regarding the completion of the Acquisition, refer to Note 3—Business Combination.~~ During the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025, the Company repaid $4830.0 million ~~and $73.0 million, respectively,~~ of the outstanding balance on the Term Loan Credit Agreement. As such, the outstanding balance as of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025, was $~~327~~170.0 million. In ~~July~~January ~~2025~~2026, we repaid $4730.0 million, decreasing the outstanding balance on the Term Loan Credit Agreement to $~~280~~140.0 million.

The benchmark rate is the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). We can elect to borrow at either an adjusted SOFR rate or an adjusted base rate, plus an applicable margin. The adjusted SOFR rate is the forward-looking term rate based on SOFR for the applicable tenor of one, three, or six months, plus 0.10 percent per annum. The adjusted base rate is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the administrative agent's prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50 percent, or (iii) the one-month adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.0 percent. We also pay a commitment fee on the unused balance of the facility. Borrowing spreads as well as commitment fees are determined based on the debt rating for senior unsecured debt of the Company, as determined by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s. The applicable margin for SOFR borrowings and adjusted base rate borrowings ranges from 1.0 percent to 1.625 percent per annum and zero to 0.625 percent per annum, respectively. Commitment fees for both rates range from 0.10 percent to 0.250 percent per annum. Based on the unsecured debt rating of the Company on ~~June 30~~December 31, 2025, the spread over SOFR was 1.375 percent and commitment fees were 0.175 percent. As of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025, the interest rate on the Term Loan Credit Agreement was 5.~~793~~205 percent per annum. The weighted average variable interest rate on all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan ~~was~~Credit ~~5.796~~Agreement ~~percent~~was ~~and~~ 5.~~731~~494 percent for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025.

Bridge Loan Facility

In connection with, and concurrently with the entry into, the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a debt commitment letter dated July 25, 2024 with MSSF, pursuant to which MSSF committed, subject to satisfaction of standard conditions, to provide the Company with an unsecured 364-day bridge loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $2.0 billion (the “Bridge Loan Facility”) the proceeds of which would, if drawn, be used to fund the Acquisition. In connection with the Bridge Loan Facility, the Company incurred approximately $10.6 million in commitment fees during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024. Due to the execution of the other financing arrangements discussed above, the commitments under the Bridge Loan Facility were reduced to $335.3 million as of September 30, 2024. As a result, we recognized approximately $9.2 million of commitment fees recorded within Interest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations during fiscal year 2024. As of September 30, 2024, approximately $1.4 million in commitment fees were deferred and included in Prepaid assets and other, net within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. On October 15, 2024, the remaining commitments under the Bridge Loan Facility were reduced such that there were no remaining commitments available, and the Bridge Loan Facility was automatically terminated in accordance with its terms. Upon termination of the facility, we recognized the remaining $1.4 million of commitment fees within Interest expense on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations during the nine months ended June 30, 2025.

There is an annual financial covenant in the 2023 Oman Facility that requires KCAD Energy to maintain a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.20:1.00. The 2023 Oman Facility and related agreements contain additional terms, conditions, restrictions and covenants that we believe are usual and customary in secured debt arrangements for companies of similar size and credit quality.

Amended Credit Facility

On August 14, 2024, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Facility") with the lenders party thereto (the "Revolving Credit Agreement Lenders"), the issuing lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo, ~~National Association~~ ("Wells Fargo") as administrative agent, ~~swing~~swingline ~~line~~ lender and issuing lender, which amended and restated the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 13, 2018 (as amended through Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement dated as of March 8, 2022, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo, as administrative agent, ~~swing~~swingline ~~line~~ lender and issuing lender.

Under the terms of the Amended Credit Facility, the Company may obtain unsecured revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $950.0 million outstanding at any time. $775.0 million of the revolving commitments under the Amended Credit Facility expire on November 12, 2028 and $175.0 million of the revolving commitments mature on November 10, 2027 (the “Stated Maturity Date”), but the Company may request two one-year extensions of the Stated Maturity Date, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. Commitments under the Amended Credit Facility may be increased by up to $100.0 million, subject to the agreement of the Company and new or existing Revolving Credit Agreement Lenders.

The proceeds of the loans made under the Amended Credit Facility may be used by the Company for (i) working capital and other general corporate purposes, (ii) for the payment of fees and expenses related to the entering into of the Amended Credit Facility and the other credit documents and (iii) for the refinancing of the extensions of credit under the Existing Credit Agreement.

Q3The ~~FY25~~benchmark ~~FORM~~rate is the SOFR. We can elect to borrow at either an adjusted SOFR rate or an adjusted base rate, plus an applicable margin. The adjusted SOFR rate is the forward-looking term rate based on SOFR for the applicable tenor of one, three, or six months, plus 0.10 percent per annum. The adjusted base rate is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the administrative agent's prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50 percent, or (iii) the one-~~Q | 24~~month adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.0 percent. We also pay a commitment fee on the unused balance of the facility. Borrowing spreads as well as commitment fees are determined based on the debt rating for senior unsecured debt of the Company, as determined by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s. The applicable margin for SOFR borrowings and adjusted base rate borrowings ranges from 0.875 percent to 1.500 percent per annum and zero to 0.50 percent per annum, respectively. Commitment fees for both rates range from 0.075 percent to 0.200 percent per annum. Based on the unsecured debt rating of the Company on December 31, 2025, the spread over SOFR would have been 1.250 percent had borrowings been outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility and commitment fees would have been 0.150 percent. There is a financial covenant in the Amended Credit Facility that requires us to maintain a total funded debt to total capitalization ratio of less than or equal to 55.0 percent. The Amended Credit Facility contains additional terms, conditions, restrictions and covenants that we believe are usual and customary in unsecured debt arrangements for companies of similar size and credit quality, including a limitation that priority debt (as defined in the credit agreement) may not exceed 17.5 percent of the net worth of the Company. As of December 31, 2025, there were no borrowings or letters of credit outstanding, leaving $950.0 million available to borrow under the Amended Credit Facility.

The applicable agreements for all unsecured debt contain additional terms, conditions and restrictions that we believe are usual and customary in unsecured debt arrangements for companies that are similar in size and credit quality. At June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

NOTE 8 INCOME TAXES

We use an estimated annual effective tax rate for purposes of determining the income tax provision during interim reporting periods. In calculating our estimated annual effective tax rate, we consider forecasted annual pre-tax income and estimated permanent book versus tax differences. Adjustments to the effective tax rate and estimates could occur during the year as information and assumptions change which could include, but are not limited to, changes to the forecasted amounts, estimates of permanent book versus tax differences, and changes to tax laws and rates.

Our income tax expense for the three months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and 2024 was $2911.02 million and $3321.76 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (2113.84) percent and 2728.53 percent, respectively. ~~Our~~Effective ~~income~~ tax ~~expense~~rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0 percent for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June 30~~December 31, 2025, ~~and~~primarily ~~2024~~due ~~was~~to ~~$92.1~~permanent ~~million~~non-deductible ~~and~~items, ~~$96.0~~foreign ~~million~~losses for which no tax benefit has been recognized, ~~respectively~~state and foreign income taxes, ~~resulting~~and indiscrete ~~effective~~adjustments. The discrete adjustments are primarily due to tax ~~rates~~expense of ~~(764~~$4.9)3 ~~percent~~million related to equity compensation and ~~26.3~~unrecognized ~~percent,~~tax ~~respectively~~benefits.

~~Effective~~ Q1 ~~tax~~FY26 ~~rates~~FORM ~~differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0 percent for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to non~~10-deductible items, state and foreign income taxes, and discrete tax adjustments. The significant difference between the effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily driven by the non-deductible goodwill impairment recognized during the current quarter and foreign losses for which no tax benefit has been recognized.Q | 17

Effective tax rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0 percent for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 primarily due to state and foreign income taxes, permanent non-deductible items, and discrete tax adjustments. The discrete tax adjustments for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 primarily relate to equity compensation and return to provision adjustments.

As of June 30, 2025, we have recorded unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties of approximately $24.5 million. We cannot predict with certainty if we will achieve ultimate resolution of any additional uncertain tax positions associated with our U.S. and international operations resulting in any additional material increases or decreases of our unrecognized tax benefits for the next twelve months.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The OBBBA includes various provisions, such as 100% bonus depreciation for assets placed in service after January 19, 2025 and full expensing of domestic research and development expenditures. ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, requires the effects of the changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax and current tax balances to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. The Company is still evaluating the impact of the OBBBA and the results of such evaluations will be reflected on our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025.

NOTE 8 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

NOTE 10 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Drilling Services Revenue

The majority of our drilling services are performed on a “daywork” contract basis, under which we charge a rate per day, with the price determined by the location, depth and complexity of the well to be drilled, operating conditions, the duration of the contract, and the competitive forces of the market. These drilling services, including our technology solutions, represent a series of distinct daily services that are substantially the same, with the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Because our customers benefit equally throughout the service period and our efforts in providing drilling services are incurred relatively evenly over the period of performance, revenue is recognized over time using a time-based input measure as we provide services to the customer. For any contracts that include a provision for pooled term days at contract inception, followed by the assignment of days to specific rigs throughout the contract term, we have elected, as a practical expedient, to recognize revenue in the amount for which the entity has a right to invoice, as permitted by ASC 606.

Performance-based contracts are contracts pursuant to which we are compensated partly based upon our performance against a mutually agreed upon set of predetermined targets. These types of contracts ~~are relatively new to the industry and~~ typically have a lower base dayrate, but give us the opportunity to receive additional compensation by meeting or exceeding certain performance targets agreed to by our customers. The variable consideration that we expect to receive is estimated at the most likely amount, and constrained to an amount such that it is probable a significant reversal of revenue previously recognized will not occur based on the performance targets. Total revenue recognized from performance contracts, including performance bonuses, was $~~309~~280.86 million and $~~941~~305.48 million, of which $1413.18 million and $4816.19 million was related to performance bonuses recognized due to the achievement of performance targets during the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025, ~~respectively. Total revenue recognized from performance contracts, including performance bonuses, was $294.4 million~~ and ~~$880.4 million, of which $11.8 million and $37.4 million was related to performance bonuses recognized due to the achievement of performance targets during the three and nine months ended June 30,~~ 2024, respectively.

Contract Costs

As of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and September 30, ~~2024~~2025, we had capitalized fulfillment costs of $3330.2 million and $1934.28 million, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The total aggregate transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligations, isrelated to firm contracts, commonly referred to as backlog., Asas of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025~~, our firm backlog~~ was approximately $5.4.8 billion, of which ~~approximately~~ $01.61 billion is expected to be recognized during the remainder of fiscal year ~~2025~~2026, ~~approximately~~ $10.28 billion isin ~~expected to be recognized during~~ fiscal year ~~2026~~2027, and ~~approximately~~ $32.69 billion isin ~~expected to be recognized during~~ fiscal year ~~2027~~2028 and thereafter. The firm backlog ~~figure includes $4.0 billion attributed to our recently acquired subsidiary, KCA Deutag. The firm backlog~~ amounts do not include anticipated contract renewals or expected performance bonuses as part of its calculation. Additionally, contracts that currently contain month-to-month terms are represented in our backlog as one month of unsatisfied performance obligations. Our contracts are subject to cancellation or modification at the election of the customer. Although we have not been materially adversely affected by contract cancellations or modifications in the past due to the level of capital deployed by our customers on underlying projects, the early termination of a contract or suspension of operations may result in a rig being idle for an extended period of time, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. ~~The~~Some ~~agreements~~of ~~within~~ our ~~recently~~revenue ~~acquired~~agreements ~~subsidiary, KCA Deutag,~~ contain provisions for optional early termination or suspension without any associated early termination fee and could cause the actual amount of revenue earned to significantly vary from the backlog reported.

~~NOTE~~Table 11of ~~EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE~~Contents

NOTE 9 EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

ASC 260, Earnings per Share, requires companies to treat unvested share-based payment awards that have non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents as a separate class of securities in calculating earnings per share. We have granted and expect to continue to grant to employees restricted stock grants that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends. Such grants are considered participating securities under ASC 260. As such, we are required to include these grants in the calculation of our basic earnings per share and calculate basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings.

Basic earnings per share is computed utilizing the two-class method and is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented.

Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods utilizing the two-class method for stock options, non-vested restricted stock and performance units.

Under the two-class method of calculating earnings per share, dividends paid and a portion of undistributed net income, but not losses, are allocated to unvested restricted stock grants that receive dividends, which are considered participating securities.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 10 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We have certain assets and liabilities that are required to be measured and disclosed at fair value. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use the following fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820-10 to measure fair value to prioritize the inputs:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Short-term Investments

Short-term investments primarily include securities classified as trading securities. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in Other income (expense) in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These securities are recorded at fair value. Level 1 inputs include U.S. agency issued debt securities with active markets ~~and money market funds~~. For these items, quoted current market prices are readily available. Level 2 inputs include corporate ~~and municipal~~ bonds measured using broker quotations that utilize observable market inputs.

During September 2021, the Company made a $100.0 million cornerstone investment in ADNOC Drilling in advance of its announced initial public offering, representing 159.7 million shares of ADNOC Drilling, equivalent to a one percent ownership stake and subject to a three-year lockup period. ADNOC Drilling’s initial public offering was completed on October 3, 2021, and its shares are listed and traded on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange. ~~During September 2024, the three-year lockup period expired and the balance was reclassified to Short-term investments on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.~~

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June 30~~December 31, ~~2025~~2024, we sold our equity securities of 159.7 million shares in ADNOC Drilling and received net proceeds of approximately $193.3 million. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June 30~~December 31, ~~2025~~2024, we recognized a loss of $12.4 million on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, related to this investment, of which $8.4 million iswas associated with the change in fair value of the investment and $4.0 million ~~relates~~related to transaction ~~fee~~fees associated with the sale of the securities. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized a gain of $5.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively, as a result of the change in fair value of the investment. This investment was classified as a Level 1 investment based on the quoted stock price on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, and was measured at fair value with any gains or losses recorded within Gain (loss) on investment securities on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Long-term Investments

Equity Securities Our long-term investments include debt and equity securities and assets held in a Non-Qualified Supplemental Savings Plan ("Savings Plan") and are recorded within Investments on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our assets that we hold in the Savings Plan are comprised of mutual funds that are measured using Level 1 inputs.

Equity Securities with Fair Value Option In October 2022, we made a $14.1 million equity investment, representing 106.0 million common shares in Tamboran Resources. In December 2023, all shares of Tamboran Resources were transferred to Tamboran Corp. in exchange for depository interests in Tamboran Corp. Depository interests, referred to as CHESS Depository Interests, each representing beneficial interests of 1/200th of a share of Tamboran Corp. common stock, are listed on the Australian Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "TBN." Tamboran Corp. is focused on developing a natural gas resource in Australia's Beetaloo Sub-basin.

On Q1 ~~June~~FY26 4,FORM 2024, the Company entered into a convertible note agreement with Tamboran Corp. This note was utilized to relieve Tamboran's outstanding accounts receivable balance owed to the Company, and therefore no cash was exchanged as part of the transaction. The convertible note agreement provided that the notes converted into shares of common stock of Tamboran Corp. under certain circumstances in connection with an initial public offering in which its stock was listed on the NYSE or NASDAQ Stock Exchange. On June 26, 2024, Tamboran Corp. completed an initial public offering of its common stock on the NYSE and its common stock is listed on the NYSE, under the ticker "TBN". As a result of this offering, the convertible note of $9.4 million was converted into 0.5 million common shares of Tamboran Corp. 10-Q | 22

We believe we have a significant influence, but not control or joint control over the investee, due to several factors, including our ownership percentage, operational involvement and role on the investee's board of directors. As of June 30, 2025, our combined equity ownership was approximately 6.1 percent representing 1.0 million common shares in Tamboran Corp. We consider this investment to have a readily determinable fair value and have elected to account for this investment using the fair value option with any changes in fair value recognized through net income. Under the guidance, Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, this investment is classified as a Level 1 investment based on the quoted stock price which is publicly available. Our investment is classified as a long-term equity investment within Investments on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and measured at fair value with any gains or losses recognized through net income and recorded within Gain (loss) on investment securities on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized gain (loss) of $(0.8) million and $1.3 million, respectively, as a result of the change in fair value of the investment compared to a gain of $1.9 million and $3.7 million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.

			Equity volatility	95.0	%

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a $29.6 million loss on our investment in Galileo, due to an allowance for credit loss on the convertible note, driven by heightened liquidity constraints and changes in governance, which led management to conclude that the fair value of the investment was not recoverable. As a result, the investment was fully reserved as of September 30, 2025. The loss was recognized through net income (loss) and recorded within Gain (loss) on investment securities on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we released Galileo from this legal obligation, resulting in the full write-off of the investment.

			Risk-free rate	3.5	%

The above significant unobservable inputs are subject to change based on changes in economic and market conditions. The use of significant unobservable inputs creates uncertainty in the measurement of fair value as of the reporting date. Significant increases or decreases in the discount rate, risk-free rate, and equity volatility in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. It is not possible for us to predict the effect of future economic or market conditions on our estimated fair values.

A majority of our long-term debt securities, including our investment in Galileo, are classified as available-for-sale and are measured using Level 3 unobservable inputs based on the absence of market activity. The following table reconciles changes in the fair value of our Level 3 assets for the periods presented below:

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

We have certain assets that are subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. For these nonfinancial assets, measurement at fair value in periods subsequent to their initial recognition is applicable if they are determined to be impaired. These assets generally include property, plant and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets, and operating lease right-of-use assets. If measured at fair value in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, these would generally be classified within Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Further details on any changes in valuation of these assets is provided in their respective footnotes.

Equity Securities

We also hold various other equity securities without readily determinable fair values, primarily comprised of geothermal investments. These equity securities are initially measured at cost, less any impairments, and will be marked to fair value once observable changes in identical or similar investments from the same issuer occur. All of our long-term equity securities are measured using Level 3 unobservable inputs based on the absence of market activity.

The following table reconciles changes in the balance of our equity securities, without readily determinable fair values, including investments that have been marked to fair value on a nonrecurring basis, for the periods presented below:

(2)The gains recorded during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 were attributable to the change in fair value of various geothermal equity investments as a result of disposals or observable price changes in identical or similar investments during the periods.

Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these items. The majority of cash equivalents are invested in highly liquid money-market mutual funds invested primarily in direct or indirect obligations of the U.S. Government and in federally insured deposit accounts. The carrying value of accounts receivable, other current and noncurrent assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities approximated fair value at June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024.

The fair values of the long-term fixed-rate debt is based on broker quotes at June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024. The unsecured senior notes and unsecured term loan credit agreement are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are not actively traded in markets.

The unsecured senior notes and unsecured term loan agreement are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are not actively traded in markets. The secured term agreements are classified as nonpublic debt, meaning their value was directly negotiated between the involved parties and is not observable in the market. As a result, they are categorized as Level 3. Since this debt is nonpublic, the carrying value and the fair value of the loans are identical.

WeNOTE ~~maintain~~11 aCOMMITMENTS ~~domestic~~AND noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering certain U.S. employees who meet certain age and service requirements. In July 2003, we revised the Helmerich & Payne, Inc. Employee Retirement Plan (“U.S. Plan”) to close the Pension Plan to new participants effective October 1, 2003, and reduce benefit accruals for current participants through September 30, 2006, at which time benefit accruals were discontinued and the Pension Plan was frozen. CONTINGENCIES

As a result of the Acquisition, we now maintain pension plans in Germany and the UK (collectively, the "Non-U.S. Plans"). These plans had net pension liability of $103.2 million ($136.4 million in obligations and $33.2 million in plan assets) as of the Acquisition Date. Of the $103.2 million, $4.2 million is presented in Accrued liabilities within Current liabilities and $99.0 million is presented in Retirement benefit obligations within Noncurrent liabilities, on the opening balance sheet presented in Note 3—Business Combination. In fiscal year 2025, we do not expect minimum contributions required by law to be needed. However, we may make contributions in fiscal year 2025 if needed as benefit payments come due.

The Company recognizes the unfunded status of its Non-U.S. Plans, based on the projected benefit obligation, as retirement benefit obligations. Changes in the funded status are recognized in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income in the period in which they occur. Prior to June 30, 2025, Retirement benefit obligations were presented in Other within Noncurrent liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Guarantee Arrangements

We are contingently liable to sureties in respect of bonds issued by the sureties in connection with certain commitments entered into by us in the normal course of business. We have agreed to indemnify the sureties for any payments made by them in respect of such bonds.

Contingencies

During the ordinary course of our business, contingencies arise resulting from an existing condition, situation or set of circumstances involving an uncertainty as to the realization of a possible gain or loss contingency. We account for gain contingencies in accordance with the provisions of ASC 450, Contingencies, and, therefore, we do not record gain contingencies or recognize income until realized. The property and equipment of our Venezuelan subsidiary was seized by the Venezuelan government on June 30, 2010. Our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Helmerich & Payne International Drilling Co. ("HPIDC"), and Helmerich & Payne de Venezuela, C.A. filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia on September 23, 2011 against the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Petroleos de Venezuela, S.A. and PDVSA Petroleo, S.A., seeking damages for the seizure of their Venezuelan drilling business in violation of international law and for breach of contract. While there exists the possibility of realizing a recovery on HPIDC's expropriation claims, we are currently unable to determine the timing or amounts we may receive, if any, or the likelihood of recovery.

Table of Contents

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various other pending legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. We maintain insurance against certain business risks subject to certain deductibles. Although no assurance can be given, we believe, based on our experiences to date and taking into account established reserves and insurance, that the ultimate resolution of such items will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations. When we determine a loss is probable of occurring and is reasonably estimable, we accrue an undiscounted liability for such contingencies based on our best estimate using information available at that time. If the estimated loss is a range of potential outcomes and there is no better estimate within the range, we accrue the amount at the low end of the range. We disclose contingencies where an adverse outcome may be material, or in the judgment of management, we conclude the matter should otherwise be disclosed.

NOTE 15 BUSINESS SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

Description of the Business

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, the naming convention for one of our reportable segments changed from Offshore Gulf of Mexico to Offshore Solutions. Beginning on the Closing Date, Offshore Solutions now includes the results from the acquired KCA Deutag offshore management contract operations. Similarly, our International Solutions segment now includes the results from the acquired KCA Deutag land operations. Operating results related to KCA Deutag's Kenera business unit are included in "Other" along with results from our real estate operations and our wholly-owned captive insurance companies. Our North America Solutions operating segment remains unchanged. For additional information regarding the completion of the Acquisition, refer to Note 3—Business Combination.

We are a performance-driven drilling solutions and technologies company based in Tulsa, Oklahoma with operations in all major U.S. onshore oil and gas producing basins as well as the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, and Australia. Our drilling operations consist mainly of contracting Company-owned drilling equipment primarily to large oil and gas exploration companies. We believe we are the recognized industry leader in drilling as well as technological innovation. We focus on offering our customers an integrated solutions-based approach by combining proprietary rig technology, automation software, and digital expertise into our rig operations rather than a product-based offering, such as a rig or separate technology package. Our drilling services operations are organized into the following reportable operating business segments: North America Solutions, International Solutions, and Offshore Solutions.

Each reportable operating segment is a strategic business unit that is managed separately, and consolidated revenues and expenses reflect the elimination of all material intercompany transactions. External revenues included in “Other” primarily consist of rental, manufacturing and engineering services income.

Segment Performance

WeOur ~~evaluate~~chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is John Lindsay, Director and Chief Executive Officer. Our CODM evaluates segment performance and allocates resources based on segment operating income (loss) before income taxes. ~~which~~Components ~~includes:~~within segment operating income (loss), such as operating revenues and direct operating expenses, are used to monitor actual performance against forecasted results for each segment.

Segment operating income (loss) before income taxes includes:

•Revenues from external and internal customers

•Direct operating costs

•Depreciation and amortization

•Research and development

•Allocated general and administrative expenses

▪Acquisition transaction costs

•Asset impairment charges

•Restructuring charges

but excludes gain on reimbursement of drilling equipment, other loss on sale of assets, corporate selling, general and administrative costs, corporate depreciation, corporate acquisition transaction costs, corporate asset impairment charges, and corporate restructuring charges.

General and administrative costs are allocated to the segments based primarily on specific identification and, to the extent that such identification is not practical, other methods may be used which we believe to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided.

Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, we initiated a workforce reduction plan to help improve operating margins by reducing direct and indirect support costs. As a result, during the three months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred costs of approximately $4.7 million, primarily related to one-time severance payments to involuntarily terminated employees. These expenses are recorded within Restructuring charges on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “predict,” “project,” “target,” “continue,” or the negative thereof or similar terminology, and such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Acquisition ~~(as defined herein)~~ and the anticipated benefits; and impact of such transaction, the timing and terms of recommencement of suspended rigs related to the Acquisition, our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management. Forward-looking statements are based upon current plans, estimates, and expectations that are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, many of which are beyond our control and any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. The inclusion of such statements should not be regarded as a representation that such plans, estimates, or expectations will be achieved.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

•our ability to achieve the strategic and other objectives relating to the Acquisition;

•the risk that we are unable to integrate KCA Deutag International Limited's ("KCA Deutag") operations in a successful manner and in the expected time period;

•the volatility of future oil and natural gas prices;

•contracting of our rigs and actions by current or potential customers;

•the effects of actions by, or disputes among or between, members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and other oil producing nations (together, “OPEC+”) with respect to production levels or other matters related to the prices of oil and natural gas;

•changes in future levels of drilling activity and capital expenditures by our customers, whether as a result of global capital markets and liquidity, changes in prices of oil and natural gas or otherwise, which may cause us to idle or stack additional rigs, or increase our capital expenditures and the construction, upgrade or acquisition of rigs;

•changes in worldwide rig supply and demand, competition, or technology;

•possible cancellation, suspension, renegotiation or termination (with or without cause) of our contracts as a result of general or industry-specific economic conditions, mechanical difficulties, performance or other reasons;

•expansion and growth of our business and operations;

•our belief that the final outcome of our legal proceedings will not materially affect our financial results;

•the impact of federal, state and foreign legislative and regulatory actions and policies, affecting our costs and increasing operating restrictions or delay and other adverse impacts on our business;

•environmental or other liabilities, risks, damages or losses, whether related to storms or hurricanes (including wreckage or debris removal), collisions, grounding, blowouts, fires, explosions, other accidents, terrorism or otherwise, for which insurance coverage and contractual indemnities may be insufficient, unenforceable or otherwise unavailable;

•the impact of geopolitical developments and tensions, war and uncertainty involving or in the geographic region of oil-producing countries (including the ongoing armed conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, ~~and~~ conflicts in ~~Israel~~the Middle East, recent shifts in Venezuela's political landscape, and any related political or economic responses and counter-responses or otherwise by various global actors or the general effect on the global economy);

As of June 30, 2025, our drilling rig fleet included a total of 368 drilling rigs. Our reportable operating business segments consist of the North America Solutions segment with 224 rigs, the International Solutions segment with 137 rigs, and the Offshore Solutions segment with seven offshore platform rigs as of June 30, 2025. Although the Offshore Solutions segment has a fleet of platform rigs, the majority of its revenues are derived from asset-light management contracts. At the close of the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, we had 213 active contracted rigs, of which 140 were under a fixed-term contract and 73 were working well-to-well, compared to 170 contracted rigs at September 30, 2024. Our long-term strategy remains focused on innovation, technology, safety, operational excellence, and reliability. As we move forward, we believe that our rig fleet, technology offerings, financial strength, contract backlog and strong customer and employee base position us very well to respond to continued cyclical and often times, volatile market conditions and to take advantage of future opportunities.

Market Outlook

Our revenues are primarily derived from the capital expenditures of companies involved in the exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas (“E&Ps”). Generally, the level of capital expenditures is dictated by capital budgets set to achieve respective production targets in relation to current and expected future prices of crude oil and natural gas, which are determined by various supply and demand factors and have historically been volatile. Furthermore, E&Ps have become more fiscally disciplined in their level of capital expenditures relative to commodity price fluctuations and the amount of free cash flows that can be returned to their shareholders, which has resulted in less volatility within the oilfield service businesses, including our operations.

Q3In ~~FY25~~early ~~FORM~~calendar ~~10-Q | 41~~year 2025, the announcements by the U.S. government regarding the implementation of global tariffs and OPEC+ regarding the planned increase of crude oil supply created continued uncertainty in the global energy markets. More recently, heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and ongoing political developments in Venezuela have perpetuated and elevated the level of uncertainty further. Although we do not anticipate that these announcements and events will have a direct material impact on the Company's operations or financial results, we believe the indirect effects could potentially lead to reduced activity in fiscal year 2026 as operators evaluate activity levels commensurate with commodity prices. Both crude oil and natural gas prices are volatile and global economic conditions heavily influence activity levels in the United States. In our international operations, commodity pricing has an impact on potential activity by our customers; however, other variables have a heavy influence on those activity levels, including disparate country budgets and the need to fund other commitments in certain areas.

KCA Deutag is a diverse global drilling company. The company derives a significant portion of its revenues and cash flow from its land operations and has a substantial land drilling presence in the Middle East with additional operations in South America, Europe, and Nothern Africa. In addition to its land operations, the company has asset-light offshore management contract operations in the North Sea, Angola, Azerbaijan and Canada. Management contract operations provide services to customer platforms where the customer owns the drilling rig. KCA Deutag’s Kenera business unit comprises manufacturing and engineering operations, including Bentec, with three facilities serving the energy industry. See Note 3—Business Combination for additional details related to the Acquisition.

Subsequent to the announcement of the Acquisition in July 2024 through July 2025, KCA Deutag and the Company have received notifications of contract suspensions for rigs from the legacy KCA Deutag rig fleet operating in Saudi Arabia. Through June 30, 2025, the Company's total rig suspensions were 26 rigs; however, subsequent to June 30, 2025, the Company has received notification of one additional rig suspended bringing the total rigs suspensions in country to 27 rigs.

At the time the Acquisition was announced, we initially expected to realize approximately $25 million in synergies. Since that time, we have been able to conduct a more detailed analysis of possible synergies, and we also launched a broader review of our enterprise cost structure. We now anticipate realizing in excess of $25 million of cost savings from the combination of synergies associated with the Acquisition and other permanent cost-saving initiatives (such as our workforce reduction plan discussed in Note 16—Restructuring Charges) and anticipate reducing our overall cost structure by approximately $50 to $75 million. We believe these cost-saving efforts will become increasingly evident in the forthcoming quarters.

Contract Backlog

As of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and September 30, ~~2024~~2025, our total contract drilling backlog, being the expected future dayrate revenue from executed contracts, was $7.30 billion ~~and $1~~.5 ~~billion, respectively. The increase in backlog from September 30, 2024 to June 30, 2025 is primarily due to the completion of the Acquisition.~~ Approximately 2716.86 percent of the ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 total backlog is reasonably expected to be fulfilled through fiscal year 2026, as a majority of our contracts are long term.

Q3The ~~FY25~~following ~~FORM~~table ~~10-Q | 42~~sets forth the total backlog by reportable segment as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025:

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024

Consolidated Results of Operations

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Helmerich & Payne Inc. We reported a loss of $162.8 million ($(1.64) diluted share) for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to income of $88.7 million ($0.88 diluted share) for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Operating Revenue During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, consolidated operating revenues were $1.0 billion and $0.7 billion, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $348.6 million of revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Direct Operating Expenses, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization Direct operating expenses were $735.3 million and $416.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $290.4 million in direct operating expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Other Operating Expenses Other operating expenses were $31.1 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $20.6 million of costs associated with Kenera's manufacturing and engineering operations.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $179.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $97.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $74.3 million in depreciation and amortization expense during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $65.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $60.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $13.3 million in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was partially offset by a $7.9 million decrease in professional services, consulting, and IT related expenses.

~~Acquisition~~Results ~~Transaction~~of ~~Costs~~Operations ~~During~~for the ~~three~~Three ~~months~~Months ~~ended~~Ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and 2024, we recognized $8.6 million and $6.7 million, respectively, in acquisition transaction costs associated with the Acquisition. These non-recurring costs are primarily related to third-party legal, advisory and valuation services. See Note 3—Business Combination for additional details related to the Acquisition.

Asset Impairment Charges During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $173.3 million associated with our International Solutions and Kenera reporting units. See Note 6—Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional details related to the goodwill impairment charges.

Interest Expense Interest expenses were $29.2 million and $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by interest associated with our September 2024 senior notes offering and Term Loan Credit Agreement. See Note 7—Debt for additional details related to our debt agreements.

Gain (Loss) on Investment Securities During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized an aggregate loss of $0.3 million on investment securities. The aggregate loss primarily consisted of a $0.8 million loss on our investment in Tamboran, partially offset by a $0.6 million gain on a geothermal equity investment due to changes in the fair value of the investments. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized a gain of $0.4 million on investment securities. The gain consisted of a $5.6 million gain and $1.9 million gain on our equity investments in ADNOC Drilling and Tamboran Corp., respectively; both of which were a result of increases in the fair market value of the stocks. These gains were offset by a $7.1 million loss recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2024 as a result of a Blue Chip Swap transaction that occurred during the period.

Income Taxes For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we had income tax expense of $29.0 million (which includes a discrete tax expense of $1.3 million primarily related to return to provision adjustments, a decrease to the deferred state income tax rate and certain foreign taxes) compared to income tax expense of $33.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 (which includes a discrete tax benefit of $0.8 million related to return to provision adjustments). Our statutory federal income tax rate for fiscal year 2025 and 2024 is 21.0 percent (before incremental state and foreign taxes).

Operating Revenues We continue to use our Captive insurance companies to insure the deductibles for our domestic workers’ compensation, general liability, automobile liability claims programs, and medical stop-loss program and to insure the deductibles from the Company's international casualty and rig property programs. Operating revenues of $42.9 million and $17.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily consisted of $16.3 million and $14.7 million, respectively, in intercompany premium revenues recorded by the Captives. These revenues were eliminated upon consolidation. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, operating revenues also consisted of $23.7 million from Kenera's manufacturing and engineering operations, of which, $4.5 million is related to intercompany revenues that were eliminated upon consolidation.

Direct Operating Expenses Direct operating expenses of $63.0 million and $21.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily consisted of $29.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively, in adjustments to accruals for estimated losses allocated to the Captives, rig and casualty insurance premiums of $10.1 million and $9.5 million, respectively, and medical stop loss expenses of $4.4 million and $4.1 million, respectively. The change to accruals for estimated losses was primarily due to actuarial valuation adjustments by our third-party actuary. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, direct operating expenses also consisted of $20.6 million from Kenera's manufacturing and engineering operations.

Asset Impairment Charges During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $44.9 million associated with our Kenera reporting unit. See Note 6—Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional details related to the goodwill impairment charges.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024

The Compnay's results presented for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 reflect a full 273 days of legacy H&P operations and 166 days of KCA Deutag operations, as the Acquisition was completed on January 16, 2025.

The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $~~669~~342.2 5 million of revenue during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025.

Direct Operating Expenses, Excluding Depreciation and Amortization Direct operating expenses were $1682.~~9 billion~~8 million and $1410.~~2 billion~~9 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $~~551~~270.1 4 million in direct operating expenses during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025.

Other Operating Expenses Other operating expenses were $3531.73 million and $31.32 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $3230.8 0 million of costs associated with ~~Kenera's~~BENTEC™ manufacturing and engineering operations.

Q3Selling, ~~FY25~~General ~~FORM~~and 10Administrative Expense Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $70.4 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $63.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $16.9 million in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended December 31, 2025. The increase was partially offset by a $5.7 million decrease in professional services and IT related expenses and a $3.0 million decrease in labor and labor-~~Q | 47~~related expenses.

Asset Impairment Charges During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $103.1 million primarily related to certain assets that were reclassified as held‑for‑sale within our North America Solutions and Offshore Solutions segments. The reclassification required us to adjust the assets to their fair value, which corresponded to their scrap value, resulting in the impairment. See Note 3—Property, Plant and Equipment for additional details related to the impairment charges.

Interest Expense Interest expenses were $25.6 million and $22.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was mainly attributable to higher debt activity associated with the completion of the Acquisition. See Note 5—Debt for additional details related to our debt agreements.

Gain (Loss) on Investment Securities During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recognized an aggregate gain of $0.9 million on investment securities. The aggregate gain primarily consisted of a $1.5 million gain on our investment in Tamboran due to a change in the fair value of the investment. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recognized a loss of $13.4 million on investment securities. The aggregate loss is mainly comprised of a $12.4 million loss on our sale of equity investments in ADNOC Drilling. Additionally, during the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recognized a $1.1 million loss on our equity investment in Tamboran Corp. as a result of a decrease in fair market value of the stock.

Income Taxes For the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded income tax expense of $11.2 million (which includes a discrete tax expense of $4.3 million primarily related to equity compensation and unrecognized tax benefits) compared to income tax expense of $21.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 (which includes a discrete tax expense of $0.7 million primarily related to equity compensation). Our statutory federal income tax rate for fiscal year 2026 and 2025 is 21.0 percent (before incremental state and foreign taxes).

Selling, General and Administrative Expense Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $209.4 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $178.0 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the completion of the Acquisition, resulting in an additional $32.9 million in selling, general and administrative expenses during the nine months ended June 30, 2025.

Acquisition Transaction Costs During the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized approximately $49.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively, in acquisition transaction costs associated with the Acquisition. These non-recurring costs are primarily related to third-party legal, advisory and valuation services. See Note 3—Business Combination for additional details related to the Acquisition.

Asset Impairment Charges During the nine months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded asset impairment charges of $175.1 million primarily driven by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $173.3 million associated with our International Solutions and Kenera reporting units. See Note 6—Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional details related to the impairment charges.

Interest Expense Interest expenses were $79.8 million and $13.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by interest expense associated with our September 2024 senior notes offering and Term Loan Credit Agreement. See Note 7—Debt for additional details related to our debt agreements.

Gain on Investment Securities During the nine months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized an aggregate gain of $14.1 million on investment securities. The aggregate gain consisted of $15.0 million, $10.2 million and $1.3 million of gains on various geothermal equity investments, our investment in Galileo, and our investment in Tamboran, respectively, due to changes in the fair value of the investments. The gain was partially offset by a $12.4 million loss on our sale of equity securities in ADNOC Drilling, of which $8.4 million is associated with the change in the fair value of the investment and $4.0 million relates to transaction fees associated with the sale of the securities. During the nine months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized an aggregate gain of $0.1 million on investment securities. The gains consisted of $3.7 million and $3.5 million of gains on our equity investments in Tamboran Corp. and ADNOC Drilling, respectively; both of which were results of increases in the fair market values of the stock. The gains on our equity investments in Tamboran and ADNOC Drilling were offset by a $7.1 million loss recognized as a result of the Blue Chip Swap transaction that occurred during the period.

Income Taxes For the nine months ended June 30, 2025 we had income tax expense of $92.1 million (which includes a discrete tax expense of $2.1 million primarily related to equity compensation, return to provision adjustments, a decrease to the deferred state income tax rate and certain foreign taxes) compared to income tax expense of $96.0 million (which includes a discrete tax benefit of $1.6 million related to equity compensation and return to provision adjustments) for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. Our statutory federal income tax rate for fiscal year 2025 and 2024 is 21.0 percent (before incremental state and foreign taxes).

Asset Impairment Charges During the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $3.0 million associated with previously capitalized in-process research and development expenses that were determined to have no alternative future use.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

Our sources of available liquidity include existing cash balances on hand, cash flows from operations, and availability under the Amended Credit Facility. Our liquidity requirements include meeting ongoing working capital needs, funding our capital expenditure projects, paying dividends declared, repaying our outstanding indebtedness, and funding the Acquisition. Historically, we have financed operations primarily through internally generated cash flows. During periods when internally generated cash flows are not sufficient to meet liquidity needs, we may utilize cash on hand, borrow from available credit sources, access capital markets or sell our investments. Likewise, if we are generating excess cash flows or have cash balances on hand beyond our near-term needs, we may return cash to shareholders through dividends or share repurchases, or we may invest in highly rated short-term money market and debt securities. These investments can include U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Agency issued debt securities, highly rated corporate bonds and commercial paper, certificates of deposit and money market funds. However, in some international locations we may make short-term investments that are less conservative, as equivalent highly rated investments are unavailable.

We may seek to access the debt and equity capital markets from time to time to raise additional capital, increase liquidity as necessary, fund our additional purchases, exchange or redeem senior notes, or repay any amounts under the Amended Credit Facility. Our ability to access the debt and equity capital markets depends on a number of factors, including our credit rating, market and industry conditions and market perceptions of our industry, general economic conditions, our revenue backlog and our capital expenditure commitments.

Cash Flows

Our cash flows fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including, among others, the number of our drilling rigs under contract, the revenue we receive under those contracts, the efficiency with which we operate our drilling rigs, the timing of collections on outstanding accounts receivable, the timing of payments to our vendors for operating costs, and capital expenditures. As our revenues increase, net working capital is typically a use of capital, while conversely, as our revenues decrease, net working capital is typically a source of capital.

Net working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) was $~~680~~740.75 million and $~~745~~650.16 million as of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 and September 30, ~~2024~~2025, respectively.

As of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $~~166~~247.12 million, ~~restricted cash of $61.1 million~~ and short-term investments of $21.38 million. Our cash flows for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June~~December 3031, 2025, and 2024 are presented below:

Amended Credit Facility

~~The~~ Q1 ~~benchmark~~FY26 ~~rate~~FORM is the SOFR. We can elect to borrow at either an adjusted SOFR rate or an adjusted base rate, plus an applicable margin. The adjusted SOFR rate is the forward-looking term rate based on SOFR for the applicable tenor of one, three, or six months, plus 0.10 percent per annum. The adjusted base rate is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the administrative agent's prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50 percent, or (iii) the one-month adjusted SOFR rate plus 1.0 percent. We also pay a commitment fee on the unused balance of the facility. Borrowing spreads as well as commitment fees are determined based on the debt rating for senior unsecured debt of the Company, as determined by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s. The applicable margin for SOFR borrowings and adjusted base rate borrowings ranges from 0.875 percent to 1.500 percent per annum and zero to 0.50 percent per annum, respectively. Commitment fees for both rates range from 0.075 percent to 0.200 percent per annum. Based on the unsecured debt rating of the Company on June 30, 2025, the spread over SOFR would have been 1.25 percent had borrowings been outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility and commitment fees would have been 0.15 percent. There is a financial covenant in the Amended Credit Facility that requires us to maintain a total funded debt to total capitalization ratio of less than or equal to 55.0 percent. The Amended Credit Facility contains additional terms, conditions, restrictions and covenants that we believe are usual and customary in unsecured debt arrangements for companies of similar size and credit quality, including a limitation that priority debt (as defined in the credit agreement) may not exceed 17.5 percent of the net worth of the Company. As of June 30, 2025, there were no borrowings or letters of credit outstanding, leaving $950.0 million available to borrow under the Amended Credit Facility. Q | 39

As of June 30, 2025, we had $400.0 million in uncommitted bilateral credit facilities, for the purpose of obtaining the issuance of international letters of credit, bank guarantees, and performance bonds. Of the $400.0 million, $175.3 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2025. Separately, we had $44.9 million in standby letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding. In total, we had $220.2 million outstanding as of June 30, 2025.

Future Cash Requirements

Our operating cash requirements, scheduled debt repayments, interest payments, any declared dividends, and estimated capital expenditures for fiscal year 2025 are expected to be funded through current cash and cash to be provided from operating activities. However, there can be no assurance that we will continue to generate cash flows at current levels. If needed, we may decide to obtain additional funding from our $950.0 million Amended Credit Facility. Our indebtedness under our unsecured senior notes totaled $1.8 billion at June 30, 2025 and comprised of the following maturities: $350.0 million due December 2027, $350.0 million due December 2029, $550.0 million due September 2031, and $550.0 million due December 2034. Our indebtedness under our unsecured term loan credit agreement totaled $327.0 million at June 30, 2025 and matures in January 2027. Our indebtedness under our secured term loan credit agreements totaled $84.6 million at June 30, 2025, of which $6.9 million is due within one year, and the remaining balance is required to be paid on a quarterly basis through the respective maturity dates of December 2033 and December 2034. This debt is allocated specifically to finance the ongoing rig construction activities in Oman.

The applicable agreements for all unsecured debt contain additional terms, conditions and restrictions that we believe are usual and customary in unsecured debt arrangements for companies that are similar in size and credit quality. At December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

Future Cash Requirements

Our operating cash requirements, scheduled debt repayments, interest payments, any declared dividends, and estimated capital expenditures for fiscal year 2026 are expected to be funded through current cash and cash to be provided from operating activities. However, there can be no assurance that we will continue to generate cash flows at current levels. If needed, we may decide to obtain additional funding from our $950.0 million Amended Credit Facility. Our indebtedness under our unsecured senior notes totaled $1.8 billion at December 31, 2025 and comprised of the following maturities: $350.0 million due December 2027, $350.0 million due December 2029, $550.0 million due September 2031, and $550.0 million due December 2034. Our indebtedness under our unsecured term loan credit agreement totaled $170.0 million at December 31, 2025 and matures in January 2027. Our indebtedness under our secured term loan credit agreements totaled $81.2 million at December 31, 2025, of which $6.9 million is due within one year, and the remaining balance is required to be paid on a quarterly basis through the respective maturity dates of December 2033 and December 2034. This debt is allocated specifically to finance the ongoing rig construction activities in Oman.

As of December 31, 2025, we had a $631.1 million deferred tax liability on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, primarily related to temporary differences between the financial and income tax basis of property, plant and equipment. Our capital expenditures over the last several years have been subject to accelerated depreciation methods (including bonus depreciation) available under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, enabling us to defer a portion of cash tax payments to future years. Future levels of capital expenditures and results of operations will determine the timing and amount of future cash tax payments. We expect to be able to meet any such obligations utilizing cash and investments on hand, as well as cash generated from ongoing operations. As of December 31, 2025, we have recorded unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties of approximately $18.8 million.

Material Commitments

Material commitments as reported in our ~~2024~~2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K have not changed significantly as of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025, other than those disclosed in Note ~~3—Business Combination, Note~~ 5—~~Leases, Note 7—~~Debt, and Note 1411—Commitments and Contingencies to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our accounting policies and estimates that are critical or the most important to understand our financial condition and results of operations, and that require management to make the most difficult judgments, are described in our ~~2024~~2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on management's evaluation, ~~except as discussed below~~ there have been no material changes in these critical accounting policies and estimates.

~~Fair~~ Q1 ~~Value~~FY26 ~~Estimates~~FORM ~~in Business Combination Accounting~~ 10-Q | 40

In addition to the critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed, due to the Acquisition, we also consider estimates used in applying the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, to be part of our critical accounting policies and estimates due to the high degree of judgment and complexity in its application. The acquisition method of accounting involves the allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This allocation process involves the use of estimates and assumptions made in connection with estimating the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed including cash flows expected to be derived from the use of the asset, the timing of such cash flows, the remaining useful life of assets, estimated asset replacement costs, and applicable discount rates. Acquisition accounting allows for up to one year to obtain the information necessary to finalize the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at January 16, 2025. Refer to Note 3—Business Combination to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information about accounting for the Acquisition.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Management assesses the potential impairment of our long‑lived assets and finite-lived intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Changes that could prompt such an assessment may include equipment obsolescence, changes in the market demand, periods of relatively low rig utilization, declining revenue per day, declining cash margin per day, completion of specific contracts, change in technology and/or overall changes in general market conditions. If a review of the long‑lived assets and finite-lived intangibles indicates that the carrying value of certain of these assets or asset groups is more than the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is made, as required, to adjust the carrying value to the estimated fair value. Cash flows are estimated by management considering factors such as prospective market demand, recent changes in rig technology and its effect on each rig’s marketability, any cash investment required to make a rig marketable, suitability of rig size and makeup to existing platforms, and competitive dynamics including utilization. The fair value of drilling rigs is determined based upon either an income approach using estimated discounted future cash flows, a market approach considering factors such as recent market sales of rigs of other companies and our own sales of rigs, appraisals and other factors, a cost approach utilizing new reproduction costs adjusted for the asset age and condition, and/or a combination of multiple approaches. The use of different assumptions could increase or decrease the estimated fair value of assets and could therefore affect any impairment measurement.

We review goodwill for impairment annually in the fourth fiscal quarter or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the carrying amount of the reporting unit holding such goodwill may exceed its fair value. We initially assess goodwill for impairment based on qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of one of our reporting units is greater than its carrying amount. If further testing is necessary or a quantitative test is elected, we quantitatively compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, an impairment charge will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess; however, the loss recognized would not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

Q3 FY25 FORM 10-Q | 57

During the third fiscal quarter of 2025, due primarily to the sustained decline in our share price and market capitalization, we identified indicators of potential impairment of goodwill and performed an interim impairment test. We estimated the fair value of each reporting unit using a market approach, incorporating significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy. We employed a combination of the guideline public company method and the guideline transactions method, leveraging company comparisons and analyst reports from the energy industry, which supported a range of fair values derived from annualized earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") multiples between 2.5x and 5.5x for guideline public companies and between 3.9x and 9.8x for guideline transactions. We then derived an estimated fair value of each reporting unit based on an EBITDA multiple at or below the peer-median trading multiple.

Based on our interim goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2025, we concluded that the International Solutions and Kenera reporting units' carrying value exceeded their respective estimated fair value. As a result, we recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $128.4 million and $44.9 million, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2025, which represented a full impairment of the goodwill allocated to these reporting units. The estimated fair values of our H&P Technologies and Offshore Solutions reporting units as of June 30, 2025 exceeded their respective carrying values by approximately 75.8 percent and 20.3 percent, respectively. These estimates reflect management’s best judgments as of June 30, 2025; however, changes in key assumptions or market conditions could yield materially different outcomes. We will continue to monitor events and circumstances that may affect fair values.

Due to the goodwill impairment described above, we also considered whether there was an indicator of impairment of our long-lived assets (including our finite-lived intangible assets) as of June 30, 2025. For the period ended June 30, 2025, we evaluated the suspension of land rigs in Saudi Arabia and the finite-lived intangible assets of our Saudi Arabia and Kenera operations for potential indicators of impairment and determined that further impairment analysis was unnecessary. These determinations are based on conditions as of June 30, 2025; should circumstances change, our conclusions could materially differ.

As of June 30, 2025, total goodwill was $166.6 million and property, plant and equipment, net was $4.4 billion. We will continue to monitor market and operational conditions and perform further impairment testing if triggering events arise.

Non-GAAP Measurements

Direct Margin

Direct margin is considered a non-GAAP metric. We define "Direct margin" as operating revenues less direct operating expenses. Direct margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because we believe it is useful in assessing and understanding our current operational performance, especially in making comparisons over time. Direct margin is not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should therefore be considered only as supplemental to such U.S. GAAP financial measures.

The following table reconciles direct margin to segment operating income (loss), which we believe is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that is most directly comparable to direct margin.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, and as a result of the material weakness identified in internal control over financial reporting described in Part II, Item 9A of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K being inapplicable in the current period, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~June~~December 3031, 2025 at ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We are in the process of integrating the KCA Deutag business into our internal control environment and expect to have this completed beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. As the integration progresses, we may modify or change certain processes and procedures which may result in changes to our internal controls over financial reporting.
