HOUSTON and LONDON, Oct. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Baker Hughes Company (Nasdaq: BKR) (Baker Hughes or the Company) announced results today for the third quarter of 2023.

"We were pleased with our third quarter results and remain optimistic on the outlook. We maintained strong orders performance in both Industrial & Energy Technology (IET) and Oilfield Services & Equipment (OFSE), with large awards coming from Venture Global in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and Vår Energi in subsea. We also delivered strong operating results at the upper end of our EBITDA* guidance range, booked almost $100 million of new energy orders and generated $592 million of free cash flow*. We continue to see positive momentum across our portfolio despite persisting global economic uncertainty," said Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes chairman and chief executive officer.

"Oil prices have rebounded as the combination of resilient oil demand and production cuts have tightened the market. As a result, the oil market is likely to see inventory draws through the rest of 2023. Continued discipline from the world’s largest producers, the pace of oil demand growth in the face of economic uncertainty, and geopolitical risk will be important factors to monitor as we look into 2024."

"Outside of the upstream markets, the global LNG market remains fundamentally tight despite recent economic softness. This tightness is evidenced by the recent LNG price spikes that resulted from the current Middle East conflict and strikes by LNG workers in Australia, which temporarily interrupted operations at several LNG facilities. Globally, we expect 2023 LNG demand to approach 410 million tons per annum (MTPA), or up about 2% compared to last year. With estimated global nameplate capacity of 490 MTPA this year, effective utilization is expected to be over 90%, which has historically represented a tight market. As a result, the LNG project pipeline remains strong, both in the U.S. and internationally."

"As we enhance our position as a leading energy technology company, we remain excited about the continued growth that we see across both segments. While there is a growing consensus the energy transition will likely take longer and be more complex than many expected, our unique portfolio is set to benefit irrespective of the pace of development. Importantly, we are laying the foundation today for a more durable earnings and free cash flow growth profile, enabling best-in-class returns and structurally increasing shareholder returns. I want to thank our shareholders, our customers, and our employees for their continued support as we continue to take energy forward," concluded Simonelli.

Quarter Highlights
Supporting Our Customers

The OFSE business segment secured a significant contract from a sub-Saharan African operator for subsea equipment in its Subsea & Surface Pressure Systems (SSPS) product line offshore Angola. The order for 11 deepwater horizontal trees, four Aptara™ manifolds and SemStar5™ subsea controls expands Baker Hughes’ presence in Angola.

OFSE also saw continued regional growth in the North Sea with two major multi-year contracts from Vår Energi. The first, a nine-year contract in OFSE's Completions, Intervention & Measurements (CIM) product line, will enhance well intervention and exploration services to further Vår's Norwegian Continental Shelf prospects and seamlessly integrate Baker Hughes' technologies into their operations to assist Vår's carbon reduction efforts. The second, a 15-year contract in OFSE's SSPS product line, will deliver bespoke vertical tree systems selected for the complexities of the Balder Field.

During the third quarter, OFSE also booked several major awards from a Middle East operator, including a long-term directional drilling services contract spanning the entirety of the customer's oil and gas rigs both on- and offshore. The contract is one of the largest in the region and demonstrates a range of Baker Hughes' cutting-edge technologies and services capabilities in drilling and delivering vertical and directional wellbores at unprecedented speeds. A second award will use Baker Hughes' coiled tubing drilling technology for an integrated project for natural gas development to support the country's self-reliance aims.

The IET business segment's third quarter orders confirmed Baker Hughes' continued strength in the natural gas and LNG growth cycle with several awards for gas technology equipment and services. IET received a major Gas Technology Equipment contract for modularized LNG systems and power island for Venture Global LNG. The contract was awarded under a master equipment supply agreement between Venture Global LNG and Baker Hughes for more than 100 MTPA of production capacity, which was recently expanded from 70 MTPA. The award builds on previous orders for Baker Hughes to provide comprehensive LNG technology solutions for the Calcasieu Pass and Plaquemines LNG projects in Louisiana.

The Gas Technology Services product line secured multiple orders to support energy customers across various segments. IET was also awarded a contract by a Latin American customer to train its personnel, and provide technical engineering assistance and service advisory for all its in-service floating production storage and offloading units located in the region. A contract with an LNG customer in the Middle East will see support for capital and insurance spares, and finally, IET secured an upgrades contract with a North American customer to increase LNG trains availability and reliability to maximize production.

Also in the third quarter, Baker Hughes was awarded an important Gas Technology Equipment order to provide rotating equipment for the gas refrigeration process of an offshore LNG facility in the Eastern Hemisphere. The order consists of four turbo-compression trains for mix refrigeration services based on aeroderivative gas turbine technology and driving centrifugal compressors.

A successful track record with a North American LNG producer earned IET's Condition Monitoring product line a contract to deliver asset health solutions for a major plant expansion. The scope includes Bently Nevada's monitoring and protection systems and System 1 software for 18 LNG trains to deliver data driven insights and help improve the safety, efficiency and reliability of the customer's operations. The contract supports the customer's long-term expansion plans and positions Baker Hughes well for the future as natural gas continues to play a critical role in the energy transition.

Executing on Priorities and Leading with Innovation

In the third quarter, IET secured important new energy contracts, notably in the carbon capture space. Baker Hughes was awarded a front-end engineering and design (FEED) study by the Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) for carbon capture and storage (CCS) at a 700 megawatt (MW) coal-fired electric generating unit. The FEED study will assess chilled ammonia process (CAP), a solvent-based CO2 capture technology, for NPPD's project to capture and store up to 90% of the unit's CO2.

Baker Hughes received multiple orders from Air Products to support its hydrogen projects across the globe, adding another milestone in the two companies' partnership inaugurated in 2021. Orders include compressors for projects in Europe manufactured at Baker Hughes' Florence, Italy, facility. IET also secured a third contract with Air Products to provide Control Valves and Consolidated Relief Valves from the Pumps, Valves & Gears product line, for integration into their Louisiana Clean Energy Complex.

IET expanded its industrial presence with several contracts in mining, specialty chemicals and renewables. A major mining client awarded the Condition Monitoring product line a multimillion-dollar global agreement for asset strategy consulting services, expanding its scope from seven to 16 sites across three regions. Elsewhere, a specialty chemicals customer awarded a contract to deliver asset strategy software, consulting services and training across seven sites in four countries. Finally, an additional award was granted to deliver Bently Nevada protection and condition monitoring systems for a new alternative fuel refinery in Europe.

Also, Condition Monitoring received an order to replace a European customer’s existing monitoring systems with Bently Nevada next generation Orbit 60 monitoring and protection technology, continuing to drive growth in digital transformation. A second contract with the same customer was secured to conduct an availability study and equipment criticality assessment for a new renewable fuel complex. These awards build on an existing multi-year agreement with the customer to deploy software, services and training across four plants in Europe.

IET's Inspection product line continued to advance the energy transition and support Baker Hughes' industrial growth in the third quarter. IET's Waygate Technologies' advanced computed tomography (CT) solutions for battery inspection reached a milestone within the electric vehicle (EV) sector, with eight of the world's top 10 EV manufacturers now using Waygate technology to ensure safety and productivity, and with over 130 CT systems installed in gigafactories and automotive plants across the globe.

OFSE achieved several strategic wins in Production Solutions, supporting a key growth area for the business segment. The business marked 30 years of upstream chemical supply to a large Canadian operator with a contract renewal, recognizing Baker Hughes' strong service delivery. The broadening of the Oilfield & Industrial Chemicals portfolio to add defoamer technology at the site reflects new product revenue for the business.

Also in Canada, Baker Hughes was chosen to be the preferred supplier of production chemicals for two customers. MEG Energy extended a multi-year contract, a demonstration of OFSE's product performance and service delivery. Vermillion Energy, advancing digitization of their business, selected Baker Hughes to supply required production chemicals to manage current assets and grow their footprint in northeast British Columbia. Baker Hughes' tank level monitors helped solidify OFSE as Vermilion's chemical vendor of choice.

On October 25, 2023, Baker Hughes’ Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share of Class A common stock payable on November 17, 2023, to holders of record on November 6, 2023. Baker Hughes expects to fund its quarterly cash dividend from cash generated from operations.

*Non-GAAP measure. See reconciliations in the section titled "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures" later in this document.

"F" is used in most instances when variance is above 100%.

Revenue for the quarter was $6,641 million, an increase of 5% sequentially and an increase of 24% year-over-year. The increase in revenue was driven by higher volume in both IET and OFSE.

The Company's total book-to-bill ratio in the quarter was 1.3; the IET book-to-bill ratio in the quarter was 1.6.

Operating income on a GAAP basis for the third quarter of 2023 was $714 million. Operating income increased $200 million sequentially and increased $445 million year-over-year. Total segment operating income was $811 million for the third quarter of 2023, up 11% sequentially and up 34% year-over-year.

Adjusted operating income (a non-GAAP measure) for the third quarter of 2023 was $716 million, which excludes adjustments totaling $2 million before tax. A complete list of the adjusting items and associated reconciliation from GAAP has been provided in Table 1a in the section titled "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures." Adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2023 was up 13% sequentially and up 42% year-over-year.

Depreciation and amortization for the third quarter of 2023 was $267 million.

Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) for the third quarter of 2023 was $983 million, which excludes adjustments totaling $2 million before tax. See Table 1b in the section titled "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures." Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter was up 8% sequentially and up 30% year-over-year.

The sequential increase in adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA was driven by higher volume in both segments and price in OFSE, partially offset by negative equipment mix in IET. The year-over-year increase in adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA was driven by volume and pricing in both segments and structural cost out initiatives, partially offset by cost inflation in both segments, and higher equipment mix and higher research and development (R&D) spend in IET.

Corporate costs were $95 million in the third quarter of 2023, down 3% sequentially and down 8% year-over-year.

Other Financial Items

Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO) in the third quarter ended at $32.4 billion, an increase of $1.4 billion from the second quarter of 2023.

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management provides non-GAAP financial measures because it believes such measures are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance (including adjusted operating income; EBITDA; EBITDA margin; adjusted EBITDA; adjusted net income attributable to Baker Hughes; and adjusted diluted earnings per share) and liquidity (free cash flow) and that these measures may be used by investors to make informed investment decisions. Management believes that the exclusion of certain identified items from several key operating performance measures enables us to evaluate our operations more effectively, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals for certain management compensation purposes. Management also believes that free cash flow is an important supplemental measure of our cash performance but should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP.

These forward-looking statements, including forecasts, may be substantially different from actual results, which are affected by many risks, along with the following risk factors and the timing of any of these risk factors:

Economic and political conditions - the impact of worldwide economic conditions and rising inflation; the effect that declines in credit availability may have on worldwide economic growth and demand for hydrocarbons; foreign currency exchange fluctuations and changes in the capital markets in locations where we operate; and the impact of government disruptions and sanctions.

Orders and RPO - our ability to execute on orders and RPO in accordance with agreed specifications, terms and conditions and convert those orders and RPO to revenue and cash.

Oil and gas market conditions - the level of petroleum industry exploration, development and production expenditures; the price of, volatility in pricing of, and the demand for crude oil and natural gas; drilling activity; drilling permits for and regulation of the shelf and the deepwater drilling; excess productive capacity; crude and product inventories; liquefied natural gas supply and demand; seasonal and other adverse weather conditions that affect the demand for energy; severe weather conditions, such as tornadoes and hurricanes, that affect exploration and production activities; Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) policy and the adherence by OPEC nations to their OPEC production quotas.

Terrorism and geopolitical risks - war, military action, terrorist activities or extended periods of international conflict, particularly involving any petroleum-producing or consuming regions, including Russia and Ukraine; and the recent conflict in the Middle East; labor disruptions, civil unrest or security conditions where we operate; potentially burdensome taxation, expropriation of assets by governmental action; cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents or attacks; epidemic outbreaks.
