Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and should be read together with our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our accounting policies are in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect:
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

Ultimate results could differ from our estimates.

In our opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2020 and the results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. In addition, certain reclassifications of prior period balances have been made to conform to the current period presentation.

The results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 may not be indicative of results for the full year.

Note 2. Impairments and Other Charges
        
The oil and gas industry experienced an unprecedented disruption during the first half of 2020 as a result of a combination of factors, including the substantial decline in global demand for oil caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent mitigation efforts, and disagreements between the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other oil producing nations (OPEC+) in February 2020 regarding limits on production of oil. These events created a substantial surplus of oil. WTI oil spot prices decreased from a high of $63 per barrel in early January to a low of negative $37 per barrel in late April, a level which had never been experienced, and then rose to a high of $41 per barrel in early July. The drop to a negative per barrel price for WTI was a short term effect of a combination of forward contracts expiring, coupled with the decrease in demand and the absence of available storage capacity. As a result, global activity declined significantly, with the global rig count sinking to the lowest level since 1973. The U.S. average rig count for the second quarter declined 50% compared to the first quarter, while the international rig count dropped 22%.

These market conditions have significantly impacted our business and our outlook globally, with a more severe impact to our North America business in the near-term. Customers continue to revise their capital budgets in order to adjust spending levels in response to the lower commodity prices, and we have experienced significant activity reductions and pricing pressure for our products and services, which we expect to continue. In line with these rapidly changing market conditions, our market capitalization also deteriorated as a result during the first half of 2020. We determined these recent events constituted a triggering event that required us to review the recoverability of our long-lived assets and perform an interim goodwill impairment assessment as of May 1, 2020. We also took actions to rationalize our portfolio of real estate facilities and initiate reductions in our global workforce in an effort to mitigate the impact of market deterioration and better align our workforce and cost structure with anticipated activity levels. As part of our real estate rationalization, we identified owned properties to sell and leased properties to abandon.

HAL Q2 2020 FORM 10-Q | 5

Part I. Item 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
We determined the fair value of our long-lived assets based on a discounted cash flow analysis, with the exception of real estate facilities which are classified as held for sale for which fair value was based on third party sales price estimates. We determined the fair value for each reporting unit in our goodwill impairment assessment using both a discounted cash flow analysis and a multiples-based market approach for comparable companies. Given the current volatile market environment, we utilized third-party valuation advisors to assist us with these valuations. These analyses included significant judgment, including management’s short-term and long-term forecast of operating performance, discount rates based on our weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rates, profitability margins, capital expenditures, the timing of future cash flows based on an eventual recovery of the oil and gas industry, and in the case of long-lived assets, the remaining useful life and service potential of the asset. These impairment assessments incorporate inherent uncertainties, including projected commodity pricing, supply and demand for our services and future market conditions, which are difficult to predict in volatile economic environments and could result in impairment charges in future periods if actual results materially differ from the estimated assumptions utilized in our forecasts.

Based upon our impairment assessments, we determined the carrying amount of some of our long-lived assets exceeded their respective fair values. Therefore, we recorded impairments and other charges of approximately $1.3 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2020 relating to these assets. Long-lived asset impairments include impairments of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, and real estate facilities. As a result of our goodwill impairment assessment, we determined that the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its net book value and, therefore, no goodwill impairments were deemed necessary. We will continue to evaluate these reporting units for potential goodwill impairment in the third quarter of 2020 as market conditions evolve.

The following table presents various pre-tax charges we recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, which are reflected within "Impairments and other charges" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Other160  48  185  48  
Total impairments and other charges$2,147  $247  $3,220  $308  

Of the $2.1 billion of impairments and other charges recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2020, approximately $1.4 billion was attributable to our Completion and Production segment and approximately $770 million was attributable to our Drilling and Evaluation segment. The $1.3 billion of long-lived asset impairments consists of the following: $368 million attributable to hydraulic fracturing equipment, the majority of which was located in North America; $281 million related to real estate properties; $122 million related to right-of-use assets, primarily operating leases; $146 million related to well intervention services equipment; $131 million related to intangible assets; and $204 million associated with other fixed asset impairments, including disposals. Inventory costs and write-downs in the table above primarily represent disposal of excess inventory, including drilling fluids and other chemicals, and write-downs in which some of our inventory cost exceeded its market value.

Given the dynamic nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and related market conditions, we cannot reasonably estimate the period of time that these events will persist or the full extent of the impact they will have on our business. If market conditions continue to deteriorate, including crude oil prices further declining and remaining at low levels for a sustained period of time, we may record further asset impairments, which may include an impairment of the carrying value of our goodwill.

Note 3. Business Segment Information

We operate under two divisions, which form the basis for the two operating segments we report: the Completion and Production segment and the Drilling and Evaluation segment. Our equity in earnings and losses of unconsolidated affiliates that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting are included within cost of services and cost of sales on our statements of operations, which is part of operating income of the applicable segment.

(c) For the six months ended June 30, 2020, amount includes a $168 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the early repurchase of senior notes. See Note 6 for further discussion on this charge.

Note 4. Revenue

Revenue is recognized based on the transfer of control or our customers' ability to benefit from our services and products in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services and products. The vast majority of our service and product contracts are short-term in nature. In recognizing revenue for our services and products, we determine the transaction price of purchase orders or contracts with our customers, which may consist of fixed and variable consideration. We also assess our customers' ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including our customers' historical payment experience and financial condition. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 20 to 60 days. Other judgments involved in recognizing revenue include an assessment of progress towards completion of performance obligations for certain long-term contracts, which involve estimating total costs to determine our progress towards contract completion and calculating the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize.

Disaggregation of revenue
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into types of services or products, consistent with our two reportable segments, in addition to geographical area. Based on the location of services provided and products sold, 41% and 54% of our consolidated revenue was from the United States for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our revenue.

Total revenue$3,196  $5,930  $8,233  $11,667  

Contract balances
We perform our obligations under contracts with our customers by transferring services and products in exchange for consideration. The timing of our performance often differs from the timing of our customer’s payment, which results in the recognition of receivables and deferred revenue. Deferred revenue represents advance consideration received from customers for contracts where revenue is recognized on future performance of service. Deferred revenue, as well as revenue recognized during the period relating to amounts included as deferred revenue at the beginning of the period, was not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent firm contracts for which work has not been performed and future revenue recognition is expected. We have elected the practical expedient permitting the exclusion of disclosing remaining performance obligations for contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. We have some long-term contracts related to software and integrated project management services such as lump sum turnkey contracts. For software contracts, revenue is generally recognized over time throughout the license period when the software is considered to be a right to access our intellectual property. For lump sum turnkey projects, we recognize revenue over time using an input method, which requires us to exercise judgment. Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations for these long-term contracts is not material.

Receivables
As of June 30, 2020, 27% of our net trade receivables were from customers in the United States. As of December 31, 2019, 36% of our net trade receivables were from customers in the United States. No other country or single customer accounted for more than 10% of our trade receivables at those dates. As a result of the current market environment, we have an increased risk of delayed customer payments and payment defaults associated with customer liquidity issues and bankruptcies. We routinely monitor the financial stability of our customers and employ an extensive process to evaluate the collectability of outstanding receivables. This process, which involves a high degree of judgment utilizing significant assumptions, includes analysis of our customers’ historical time to pay, financial condition and various financial metrics, debt structure, credit agency ratings, and production profile, as well as political and economic factors in countries of operations and other customer-specific factors.

Total$2,745  $3,139  

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $494 million of impairment charges related to inventory. See Note 2 for further discussion on impairments and other charges.

Note 6. Debt

On March 3, 2020, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 2.92% senior notes due March 2030. Subsequently, on March 5, 2020, we completed a tender offer to purchase $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes using proceeds from the debt issuance and cash on hand. The tender offer consisted of $500 million of 3.50% senior notes due August 2023 and $1.0 billion of 3.80% senior notes due November 2025. This early debt repurchase resulted in a $168 million loss on extinguishment, which included a tender premium, unamortized discounts and costs on the retired notes, and other tender fees. These costs were included in "Loss on early extinguishment of debt" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The $1.0 billion senior notes issued in March rank equally with our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, have semiannual interest payments, and have no sinking fund requirements. We may redeem some or all of the notes at any time at the applicable redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Note 7. Income Taxes

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a total income tax benefit of $402 million on a pre-tax loss of $2.1 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 19.3%. Our effective tax rate during the three months ended June 30, 2020 was impacted by the geographic mix of our earnings.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a total income tax benefit of $283 million on a pre-tax loss of $3.0 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 9.5%. The effective tax rate for this period was primarily impacted by our first quarter results, which included the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and OPEC+ disagreements which created an unprecedented disruption in the oil and gas industry. After evaluating the negative impact that these events are expected to have on our business outlook, we determined that it was more likely than not that certain foreign tax credits would not be realized. Accordingly, we recognized a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets in the amount of $310 million during the first quarter. Additionally, we recorded $3.2 billion of impairments and other charges and a $168 million loss on extinguishment of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2020, resulting in a $686 million tax benefit recognized during the period. Our effective tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was also impacted by the geographic mix of our earnings.

See Note 2 for further information on these adverse market conditions and impairments and other charges recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various legal or governmental proceedings, claims or investigations, including personal injury, property damage, environmental and tax-related matters, arising in the ordinary course of business, the resolution of which, in the opinion of management, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position. There is inherent risk in any litigation, claim or investigation, and no assurance can be given as
to the outcome of these proceedings.

Guarantee arrangements
In the normal course of business, we have agreements with financial institutions under which approximately $1.9 billion of letters of credit, bank guarantees or surety bonds were outstanding as of June 30, 2020. Some of the outstanding letters of credit have triggering events that would entitle a bank to require cash collateralization. None of these off balance sheet arrangements either has, or is likely to have, a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 10. Income per Share

Basic income per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued. Antidilutive shares represent potential common shares which are excluded from the computation of diluted income per share as their impact would be antidilutive.

The total fair value of our debt decreased during the first half of 2020, primarily due to the negative impact on our business and industry associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and OPEC+ disagreements as described in Note 2. These events have collectively increased the credit spreads for all of our publicly traded bonds, thus reducing the associated fair value. Additionally, the fair value and carrying value of our debt decreased in the first half of 2020 due to an early repurchase of senior notes. See Note 6 for further information.

Our debt categorized within level 1 on the fair value hierarchy is calculated using quoted prices in active markets for identical liabilities with transactions occurring on the last two days of period-end. Our debt categorized within level 2 on the fair value hierarchy is calculated using significant observable inputs for similar liabilities where estimated values are determined from observable data points on our other bonds and on other similarly rated corporate debt or from observable data points of transactions occurring prior to two days from period-end and adjusting for changes in market conditions. Differences between the periods presented in our level 1 and level 2 classification of our long-term debt relate to the timing of when third party market transactions on our debt are executed. We have no debt categorized within level 3 on the fair value hierarchy.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements included in "Item 1. Financial Statements" contained herein.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Organization
We are one of the world's largest providers of products and services to the energy industry. We help our customers maximize value throughout the lifecycle of the reservoir - from locating hydrocarbons and managing geological data, to drilling and formation evaluation, well construction and completion, and optimizing production throughout the life of the asset. Activity levels within our operations are significantly impacted by spending on upstream exploration, development and production programs by major, national and independent oil and natural gas companies. We report our results under two segments, the Completion and Production segment and the Drilling and Evaluation segment:
our Completion and Production segment delivers cementing, stimulation, intervention, pressure control, specialty chemicals, artificial lift, and completion products and services. The segment consists of Production Enhancement, Cementing, Completion Tools, Production Solutions, Multi-Chem, Artificial Lift, and Pipeline and Process Services.
our Drilling and Evaluation segment provides field and reservoir modeling, drilling, evaluation and precise wellbore placement solutions that enable customers to model, measure, drill and optimize their well construction activities. The segment consists of Baroid, Sperry Drilling, Wireline and Perforating, Drill Bits and Services, Landmark Software and Services, Testing and Subsea, and Project Management.

The business operations of our segments are organized around four primary geographic regions: North America, Latin America, Europe/Africa/CIS and Middle East/Asia. We have manufacturing operations in various locations, the most significant of which are located in the United States, Malaysia, Singapore and the United Kingdom. With more than 40,000 employees, we operate in more than 80 countries around the world, and our corporate headquarters are in Houston, Texas.

The following charts depict the company's revenue split between our two operating segments and our four primary geographic regions for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

COVID-19 pandemic and market conditions update
The COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions have created significant volatility, uncertainty, and turmoil in the oil and gas industry. Oil demand has significantly deteriorated as a result of the virus outbreak and corresponding preventative measures taken around the world to mitigate the spread of the virus. In the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other oil producing nations (OPEC+) were initially unable to reach an agreement on production levels for crude oil, at which point Saudi Arabia and Russia initiated efforts to aggressively increase production. The convergence of these events created the unprecedented dual impact of a massive decline in the demand for oil coupled with the risk of a substantial increase in supply. While OPEC+ agreed in April to cut production, downward pressure on commodity prices has remained and could continue for the foreseeable future. WTI oil spot prices decreased from a high of $63 per barrel in early January to a low of negative $37 per barrel in late April, a level which had never been experienced, and then rose to a high of $41 per barrel in early July. The drop to a negative per barrel price for WTI was a short term effect of a combination of forward contracts expiring, coupled with the decrease in demand and the absence of available

Part I. Item 2 | Executive Overview
storage capacity. As a result, global activity declined significantly, with the global rig count sinking to the lowest level since 1973. The U.S. average rig count for the second quarter declined 50% compared to the first quarter, while the international rig count dropped 22%.

Financial results
The pandemic and the disruption in the oil and gas industry has had and continues to have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations. The financial results for the second quarter of 2020 reflect the reduced activity experienced in various locations around the world. The following graph illustrates our revenue and operating margins for each operating segment for the second quarter of 2019 and 2020.

hal-20200630_g3.jpg

During the second quarter of 2020, we generated total company revenue of $3.2 billion, a 46% decrease as compared to the second quarter of 2019. We reported an operating loss of $1.9 billion during the second quarter of 2020 driven by the decrease in revenue and $2.1 billion of impairments and other charges. This compares to operating income of $303 million during the second quarter of 2019, which includes $247 million of impairments and other charges. Our Completion and Production segment revenue decreased 56% from the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to a global reduction in pressure pumping activity. Our Drilling and Evaluation segment revenue decreased 28% from the second quarter of 2019, primarily driven by reduced drilling-related services and wireline activity in both North America and Latin America.

In North America, our revenue decreased 68% in the second quarter of 2020, as compared to the second quarter of 2019, driven by reduced activity and pricing in U.S. land, primarily associated with stimulation activity, well construction, artificial lift, wireline, and completion tool sales. North America activity is declining as a result of lower oil prices caused by the pandemic and the precipitous decline in the demand for oil. Our customers remain focused on reducing their capital spending budgets, with full year spending estimated to be approximately 50% lower than 2019. The average U.S. land rig count fell by approximately 50% since the first quarter of 2020 and 61% compared to the second quarter of 2019, and continued to decline into July 2020.

Revenue in our international markets decreased 18% in the second quarter of 2020, as compared to the second quarter of 2019, primarily driven by decreased activity across Argentina and Colombia, coupled with lower pressure pumping activity in Europe/Africa/CIS. International customers are reducing capital spending, deferring exploration and appraisal activity and looking to reduce costs on major ongoing projects, most notably in the offshore exploration markets.

Business outlook
Demand for our products and services could continue to decline as our customers revise their capital budgets downwards and adjust their operations in response to lower oil prices. As operators in North America and the international markets look for ways to reduce spending, we will work to improve efficiencies that help both our customers and our company optimize costs. We have taken significant steps to reduce our fixed costs through our service delivery improvement strategy, including reducing headcount, consolidating our facilities, removing layers of operations management in North America, streamlining our support functions, and reducing maintenance cost per horsepower-hour. We cannot predict the length of time that the market disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate its effects will continue, the ultimate impact on our business, or the pace or extent of any subsequent recovery. Nevertheless, we will maintain our commitment to safety and service quality for our customers and continue to focus on generating returns and cash flow.

HAL Q2 2020 FORM 10-Q | 14

Part I. Item 2 | Executive Overview
In North America, we expect production to remain structurally lower in the foreseeable future with slower growth going forward. With shrinking demand for shale oil and limited access to the capital markets, we expect to see a more disciplined market with stronger operators and service companies. We expect to see a modest improvement in completions activity during the third quarter, followed by a seasonal deceleration at the end of the year. The decline in drilling activity has slowed and we believe the rig count decline should level off in the third quarter. We restructured our North America organization in 2019 and implemented additional measures in the second quarter of 2020 to further reduce our costs and improve our cash flow with the acceleration of our service delivery improvement strategy. We also expect to continue deploying technologies that lower our costs and improve production results for our customers.

Internationally, we anticipate drilling activity to continue to decline modestly, while completions stay resilient into year-end. Overall, we expect a mid-teens percentage decline in international activity and spending in 2020 as compared to 2019. We believe the activity changes will not be uniform across all markets and anticipate that the least affected markets will be the OPEC countries in the Middle East and the Norwegian sector of the North Sea, while Latin America and Africa may see a more significant decline. OPEC+ production decisions and compliance, as well as the duration of pandemic-related demand and activity disruptions will ultimately determine how much international spending will decline in 2020. Within our international business, we plan to implement our remaining cost reduction actions by the end of the third quarter. We expect that as oil demand recovers, international producers will have the opportunity to regain market share as a result of declining U.S. production, leading to healthy activity levels internationally.

During the first half of 2020, we had $355 million of capital expenditures, a decrease of 58% from the first half of 2019, as we adjusted to current market conditions. Our expected full year 2020 capital expenditures remain approximately $800 million, a 48% decrease from 2019, with expenditures largely directed towards our international business. We believe this level of spend will still allow us to invest in our key strategic areas, while continuing to rationalize our business to current market conditions. We will continue to maintain capital discipline and monitor the rapidly changing market dynamics and adjust our capital expenditures accordingly.

Under the adverse market conditions we are facing in 2020, we are taking swift actions that we believe will not only temper the impact of the activity declines on our financial performance, but also will further boost our earnings power and cash flow generation ability. We plan to continue executing the following strategies through the end of 2020:
collaborating with, and engineering solutions to maximize asset value for our customers;
directing capital and resources to projects around the world that we believe will provide the best opportunity to generate acceptable returns;
accelerating our adoption of digital technologies to drive performance, operational efficiencies and cost reductions for our customers and internally;
deploying differentiated technology that helps our customers reduce reservoir uncertainty and improve well productivity;
improving working capital and managing our balance sheet to maximize our financial flexibility;
seeking additional ways to be one of the most cost-efficient service providers in the industry by optimizing structural costs, maintaining capital discipline and leveraging our scale and breadth of operations; and
striving to achieve superior returns and cash flow generation for our shareholders.
Our operating performance and business outlook are described in more detail in “Business Environment and Results of Operations.”

Financial markets, liquidity, and capital resources
We believe we have invested our cash balances conservatively and secured sufficient financing to help mitigate any near-term negative impact on our operations from adverse market conditions. In March 2020, we retired $500 million in total debt and extended the maturity for $1.0 billion of senior notes out to 2030. We have focused on debt reduction over the last few years, reducing total debt by approximately $2.6 billion since 2016. We believe we have a very manageable debt maturity profile, with approximately $1.3 billion coming due through 2024. As of June 30, 2020, we had $1.8 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.5 billion of available committed bank credit under our revolving credit facility. We believe this provides us with sufficient liquidity to address the challenges and opportunities of the current market. For additional information on market conditions, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Business Environment and Results of Operations.”

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2020, we had $1.8 billion of cash and equivalents, compared to $2.3 billion of cash and equivalents at December 31, 2019.

Significant sources and uses of cash during the first six months of 2020
Sources of cash:
Cash flows from operating activities were $823 million. This included a positive impact from the primary components of our working capital (receivables, inventories and accounts payable) of a net $296 million, primarily associated with lower customer receivables, offset by approximately $235 million of cash payments for impairment and other charges, primarily severance.

Uses of cash:
In March 2020, we executed two transactions resulting in a reduction of net debt by $500 million. We issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes and used the net proceeds from issuance along with cash on hand to repurchase $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes. Inclusive of the tender premium and fees, these transactions resulted in a net payment of approximately $654 million.
Capital expenditures were $355 million.
We paid $198 million in dividends to our shareholders.
We repurchased approximately 7.4 million shares of our common stock in early March, largely before the significant decline in oil prices, under our share repurchase program at a total cost of $100 million.

Future sources and uses of cash
We manufacture most of our own equipment, which allows us flexibility to increase or decrease our capital expenditures based on market conditions. Capital spending for the full year 2020 is currently expected to be approximately $800 million, a decrease of 48% from 2019. We believe this level of spend will still allow us to invest in our key strategic areas, while continuing to rationalize our business to current market conditions. We will continue to maintain capital discipline and monitor the rapidly changing market dynamics and adjust our capital spend accordingly.

During the second quarter of 2020, based on our market outlook, we reduced our quarterly dividend rate from $0.18 per common share to $0.045 per common share, which equates to a reduction in cash outflow from approximately $160 million per quarter to approximately $40 million per quarter. We will continue to maintain our focus on liquidity and review our quarterly dividend in light of our priorities of future debt reduction and, as market conditions evolve, reinvesting in our business.

Our Board of Directors has authorized a program to repurchase our common stock from time to time. Approximately $5.1 billion remained authorized for repurchases as of June 30, 2020 and may be used for open market and other share purchases.

Other factors affecting liquidity
Financial position in current market. As of June 30, 2020, we had $1.8 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.5 billion of available committed bank credit under our revolving credit facility. Furthermore, we have no financial covenants or material adverse change provisions in our bank agreements, and our debt maturities extend over a long period of time. We believe our cash on hand, cash flows generated from operations and our available credit facility will provide sufficient liquidity to address the challenges and opportunities of the current market and our global cash needs, including capital expenditures, working capital investments, dividends, if any, and contingent liabilities.

Guarantee agreements. In the normal course of business, we have agreements with financial institutions under which approximately $1.9 billion of letters of credit, bank guarantees or surety bonds were outstanding as of June 30, 2020. Some of the outstanding letters of credit have triggering events that would entitle a bank to require cash collateralization.

Credit ratings. Our credit ratings with Standard & Poor’s (S&P) remain BBB+ for our long-term debt and A-2 for our short-term debt, with a negative outlook. Our credit ratings with Moody’s Investors Service (Moody's) remain Baa1 for our long-term debt and P-2 for our short-term debt, with a negative outlook.
HAL Q2 2020 FORM 10-Q | 16

Part I. Item 2 | Liquidity and Capital Resources
Customer receivables. In line with industry practice, we bill our customers for our services in arrears and are, therefore, subject to our customers delaying or failing to pay our invoices. In weak economic environments, we may experience increased delays and failures to pay our invoices due to, among other reasons, a reduction in our customers’ cash flow from operations and their access to the credit markets as well as unsettled political conditions. Given the nature and significance of the pandemic and disruption in the oil and gas industry, we could experience delayed customer payments and payment defaults associated with customer liquidity issues and bankruptcies. If our customers delay paying or fail to pay us a significant amount of our outstanding receivables, it could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

Part I. Item 2 | Business Environment and Results of Operations
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We operate in more than 80 countries throughout the world to provide a comprehensive range of services and products to the energy industry. Our revenue is generated from the sale of services and products to major, national, and independent oil and natural gas companies worldwide. The industry we serve is highly competitive with many substantial competitors in each segment of our business. During the first six months of 2020, based upon the location of the services provided and products sold, 41% of our consolidated revenue was from the United States, compared to 54% of consolidated revenue from the United States in the first six months of 2019. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our revenue.

Operations in some countries may be adversely affected by unsettled political conditions, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, force majeure, war or other armed conflict, sanctions, expropriation or other governmental actions, inflation, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, foreign currency exchange restrictions and highly inflationary currencies, as well as other geopolitical factors. We believe the geographic diversification of our business activities reduces the risk that an interruption of operations in any one country, other than the United States, would be materially adverse to our consolidated results of operations.

Activity within our business segments is significantly impacted by spending on upstream exploration, development and production programs by our customers. Also impacting our activity is the status of the global economy, which impacts oil and natural gas consumption. The COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate its effect have had a substantial negative impact on the global economy and demand for oil.

Some of the more significant determinants of current and future spending levels of our customers are oil and natural gas prices and our customers' expectations about future prices, global oil supply and demand, completions intensity, the world economy, the availability of credit, government regulation and global stability, which together drive worldwide drilling and completions activity. Additionally, many of our customers in North America have shifted their strategy from production growth to operating within cash flow and generating returns. Lower oil and natural gas prices usually translate into lower exploration and production budgets and lower rig count, while the opposite is usually true for higher oil and natural gas prices. Our financial performance is therefore significantly affected by oil and natural gas prices and worldwide rig activity, which are summarized in the tables below.

The table below shows the average oil and natural gas prices for West Texas Intermediate (WTI), United Kingdom Brent crude oil, and Henry Hub natural gas. Commodity prices dramatically decreased during the second quarter of 2020 due to the dual impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and over supply of oil from the inability of OPEC+ to agree on production cuts in the first quarter of 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions have created significant volatility, uncertainty, and turmoil in the oil and gas industry. Oil demand has significantly deteriorated as a result of the virus outbreak and corresponding preventative measures taken around the world to mitigate the spread of the virus. In the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, in the first quarter of 2020 OPEC+ was initially unable to reach an agreement on production levels for crude oil, at which point Saudi Arabia and Russia initiated efforts to aggressively increase production. The convergence of these events created the unprecedented dual impact of a global oil demand decline coupled with the risk of an over supply of oil.

As a result of these events, crude oil prices significantly declined during the first half of 2020. WTI oil spot prices decreased from a high of $63 per barrel in early January to a low of negative $37 per barrel in late April. The drop to a negative per barrel price for WTI was a short term effect of a combination of forward contracts expiring, coupled with the decrease in demand and the absence of available storage capacity. Within 10 days the WTI price had recovered to above $19 per barrel, but has remained below $41 per barrel through early July. Brent crude oil spot prices also deteriorated during the first half of 2020, from a high of $70 per barrel in early January to a low of $15 per barrel in late March, a level which had not been experienced since June 1999, before rebounding to a high of $43 in early July. While OPEC+ agreed in April to cut production, downward pressure on commodity prices has continued and could continue for the foreseeable future, particularly given concerns over available storage capacity.

In the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) July 2020 "Short Term Energy Outlook," the EIA projects average WTI prices to be $38 per barrel in the third quarter and for the full year 2020, and to increase to $46 per barrel in 2021. Brent prices are projected to average $41 per barrel during the second half of 2020 and rise to $50 per barrel in 2021.

The EIA projects crude oil production in the United States to average 11.6 million barrels per day in 2020, a 5% decrease from 2019, and 11.0 million barrels per day in 2021. The International Energy Agency's (IEA) July 2020 "Oil Market Report" reports global oil supply to have fallen by 2.4 million barrels per day in June to a nine-year low of 86.9 million barrels per day. Compliance with the OPEC+ output deal has cut the world oil output by nearly 14 million barrels per day since April. If the OPEC+ cuts stay in place as agreed, global oil supply could fall by 7.1 million barrels per day in 2020 before seeing a modest recovery of 1.7 million barrels per day next year. The IEA forecasts global demand to average approximately 92.1 million barrels per day in 2020, down 7.9 million barrels per day, or 8%, from 2019 demand. This is a slightly smaller decline than previously forecasted. In addition, IEA forecasted a recovery of 5.3 million barrels per day in 2021. The recent increase in COVID-19 cases and the introduction of partial lockdowns introduces more uncertainty to the forecast.

The Henry Hub natural gas spot price averaged $1.71 per MMBtu in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $0.85 per MMBtu, or 33%. The EIA July 2020 “Short Term Energy Outlook” projects Henry Hub natural gas prices to average $1.93 per MMBtu in 2020 and $3.10 per MMBtu in 2021.

North America operations
During the second quarter of 2020, the average United States land rig count decreased 61%, as compared to the second quarter of 2019. The pandemic and disruption in the oil and gas industry has particularly affected the North America market as the U.S. rig count continues to decline into July. Customers continue to revise their capital budgets in order to adjust spending levels in response to the lower demand and commodity prices. Nevertheless, assuming no material adverse change in the status of the pandemic, and WTI spot prices remain range-bound around $40 per barrel, we believe customers will begin to bring back shut-in production which will lead to a modest uptick in completions activity during the third quarter of 2020, followed by a seasonal deceleration at the end of the year. The decline in drilling activity has slowed, and we believe the rig count should reach its lowest point in the third quarter of 2020. Our full year 2020 customer spend outlook for North America remains unchanged at approximately 50% lower than 2019. With shrinking demand for shale oil and limited access to the capital markets, we expect to see a more disciplined market with stronger operators and service companies.

International operations
The average international rig count for the second quarter of 2020 was down 25% compared to the second quarter of 2019. We anticipate drilling activity to continue to decline modestly, while completions stay resilient into year-end. The activity changes have not been and will not be uniform across all international markets. Some customers across our international markets are deferring new projects, most notably in the offshore exploration markets. On a full year basis, we expect activity in the OPEC countries in the Middle East and the Norwegian sector of the North Sea to be more resilient, while Latin America and Africa decline sharply. Due to the deeper and longer pullback in Latin America, we now anticipate a mid-teens percentage decline in international activity and spend for the full year 2020.

Part I. Item 2 | Business Environment and Results of Operations
Venezuela. The general license issued by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S. Department of Treasury, which allowed us to continue operating in Venezuela despite OFAC sanctions imposed against the Venezuelan energy industry, was set to expire in July 2019 and had been extended several times. In April 2020, OFAC issued an updated general license. Effective April 21, 2020, the license prohibits us from performing the majority of our operations in the country. In particular, we are prohibited from performing activities associated with: (a) the drilling, lifting, or processing of, purchase or sale of, or transport or shipping of any Venezuelan-origin petroleum or petroleum products; and (b) the design, construction, installation, repair, or improvement of any wells or other facilities or infrastructure in Venezuela or the purchasing or provision of any goods or services, except as required for safety. Through December 1, 2020, we are only permitted to perform certain transactions and activities necessary for (i) safety or the preservation of assets in Venezuela or (ii) the winding down of operations, contracts or other agreements in Venezuela, along with other administrative activities. Consequently, we have ceased our primary operations in Venezuela in order to comply with the sanctions. It is unlikely that we will be able to remove our assets that remain in Venezuela and those assets may be expropriated. Since we have previously written down all of our investment in Venezuela and have maintained limited operations in this country during the general license period, we do not expect the expiration of the license to have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

Consolidated revenue was $3.2 billion in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $2.7 billion, or 46%, as compared to the second quarter of 2019. These results were driven by lower activity and pricing in U.S. land, primarily associated with stimulation activity, well construction, and artificial lift, as well as reduced activity in Latin America. Revenue from North America was 33% of consolidated revenue in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 56% of consolidated revenue in the second quarter of 2019. We reported an operating loss of $1.9 billion during the second quarter of 2020 driven by the decrease in revenue and $2.1 billion of impairments and other charges. This compares to operating income of $303 million during the second quarter of 2019, which included $247 million of impairments and other charges. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these charges.

Operating Segments

Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue in the second quarter of 2020 was $1.7 billion, a decrease of $2.1 billion, or 56%, when compared to the second quarter of 2019, while operating income was $159 million, a decrease of $311 million, or 66%. These results were primarily due to a global reduction in pressure pumping activity, coupled with lower artificial lift and completion tool sales in U.S. land.

Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the second quarter of 2020 was $1.5 billion, a decrease of $601 million, or 28% when compared to the second quarter of 2019, while operating income was $127 million, a decrease of $18 million, or 12%. These results were driven by reduced drilling-related services and wireline activity in both North America and Latin America, coupled with decreased project management activity in Middle East/Asia. This decline was partially offset by increased drilling-related services in the North Sea.

Geographic Regions

North America
North America revenue in the second quarter of 2020 was $1.0 billion, a 68% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2019. This decline was mainly due to reduced activity and pricing in U.S. land, primarily associated with stimulation activity, well construction, artificial lift, wireline, and completion tool sales. These results were partially offset by increased stimulation activity and completion tool sales in the Gulf of Mexico.

Latin America
Latin America revenue in the second quarter of 2020 was $346 million, a 39% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2019, resulting from reduced activity across the majority of product service lines in Argentina, Colombia, Brazil, and Ecuador.

Europe/Africa/CIS
Europe/Africa/CIS revenue in the second quarter of 2020 was $691 million, a 16% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2019, resulting primarily from decreased stimulation activity, well construction, and wireline activity across the region, coupled with lower activity across multiple product service lines in Nigeria. These declines were partially offset by increased activity in Russia.

Middle East/Asia
Middle East/Asia revenue in the second quarter of 2020 was $1.1 billion, an 8% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2019, largely resulting from decreased stimulation services, project management activity, and well intervention services in the Middle East, coupled with reduced project management activity in Asia. These declines were partially offset by increased activity in Indonesia.

Other Operating Items

Impairments and other charges. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $2.1 billion of impairments and other charges to further adjust our cost structure to current market conditions. These charges consisted primarily of asset impairments, mostly associated with pressure pumping equipment and real estate facilities, as well as inventory write-offs, severance, and other costs. This compares to $247 million of impairments and other charges recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily related to asset impairments and severance costs. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these second quarter charges.

Nonoperating Items

Effective tax rate. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a total income tax benefit of $402 million on a pre-tax loss of $2.1 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 19.3%. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a total income tax provision of $74 million on pre-tax income of $151 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 48.5%. Our effective tax rate during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was significantly impacted by $247 million in pre-tax impairments and other charges recorded during the period, as we did not recognize a corresponding financial statement tax benefit for the majority of these charges. Our effective tax rate during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was also impacted by the geographic mix of our earnings.

Consolidated revenue was $8.2 billion in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of $3.4 billion, or 29%, as compared to the first six months of 2019. This decline was primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services and well construction in North America. We reported an operating loss of $2.5 billion in the first six months of 2020 compared to operating income of $668 million during the first six months of 2019. Operating results in the first six months of 2020 were impacted by a decrease in revenue and $3.2 billion of impairments and other charges, while operating results in the first six months of 2019 included $308 million of impairments and other charges. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these charges. Revenue from North America was 43% of consolidated revenue in the first six months of 2020, compared to 57% of consolidated revenue in the first six months of 2019.

Operating Segments

        Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue in the first six months of 2020 was $4.6 billion, a decrease of $2.8 billion, or 38%, compared to the first six months of 2019. Operating income in the first six months of 2020 was $504 million, a decrease of $334 million, or 40%, compared to the first six months of 2019. These results were primarily driven by a global decline of pressure pumping activity, primarily in U.S. land and Latin America, coupled with lower artificial lift activity in U.S. land.

        Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the first six months of 2020 was $3.6 billion, a decrease of $601 million, or 14%, compared to the first six months of 2019, primarily related to reduced drilling-related activity in both North America and Latin America, coupled with lower wireline activity in U.S. land and decreased project management activity in Middle East/Asia. These results were partially offset by increased drilling-related services in the Eastern Hemisphere. Operating income in the first six months of 2020 was $344 million, an increase of $76 million, or 28%, compared to the first six months of 2019, primarily associated with changes in our North America cost structure and favorable changes in the activity mix related to drilling-related services in the Eastern Hemisphere.

Geographic Regions

        North America
        North America revenue in the first six months of 2020 was $3.5 billion, a 47% decrease compared to the first six months of 2019. These results were driven by lower activity and pricing across the region, primarily associated with stimulation activity, well construction, artificial lift, wireline, and completion tool sales.

        Latin America
        Latin America revenue in the first six months of 2020 was $862 million, a 26% decrease compared to the first six months of 2019, resulting primarily from decreased well construction, stimulation activity, and wireline activity in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Ecuador.

        Europe/Africa/CIS
        Europe/Africa/CIS revenue in the first six months of 2020 was $1.5 billion, a 3% decrease from the first six months of 2019, primarily due to reduced pressure pumping and pipeline services across the region, partially offset by increased drilling-related services in the North Sea.

        Middle East/Asia
        Middle East/Asia revenue in the first six months of 2020 was $2.3 billion, which was flat from the first six months of 2019. Higher well construction activity in Indonesia, coupled with increased activity in Malaysia, offset the reduction in stimulation activity in the Middle East and lower project management activity in India.

Other Operating Items

Impairments and other charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $3.2 billion of impairments and other charges to further adjust our cost structure to current market conditions. These charges consisted primarily of asset impairments, mostly associated with pressure pumping equipment and real estate facilities, as well as inventory write-offs, severance and other costs. This compares to $308 million of charges in the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily related to asset impairments and severance costs. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these charges.

Nonoperating Items

Loss on early extinguishment of debt. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a $168 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt, which included a tender premium, unamortized discounts and costs on the retired notes,
and tender fees. See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

        Effective tax rate. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a total income tax benefit of $283 million on a pre-tax loss of $3.0 billion, resulting in an effective tax rate of 9.5%.

Part II. Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
Item 1(a). Risk Factors

The statements in this section describe the known material risks to our business and should be considered carefully. The risk factor below updates our risk factors previously discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

The recent COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions have had, and continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition, which effect could worsen.

The COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions have created significant volatility, uncertainty, and turmoil in the oil and gas industry. These events have directly affected our business and have exacerbated the potential negative impact from many of the risks described in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, including those relating to our customers’ capital spending and trends in oil and natural gas prices. For example, demand for our products and services is declining as our customers continue to revise their capital budgets downwards and swiftly adjust their operations in response to lower commodity prices. In addition, we are facing logistical challenges including border closures, travel restrictions and an inability to commute to certain facilities and job sites, as we provide services and products to our customers. We are also experiencing inefficiencies surrounding stay-at-home orders and remote work arrangements. These logistical challenges and inefficiencies could worsen if the pandemic worsens.

In the midst of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, in the first quarter of 2020 OPEC+ was initially unable to reach an agreement to continue to impose limits on the production of crude oil. Oil demand has significantly deteriorated as a result of the virus outbreak and corresponding preventative measures taken around the world to mitigate the spread of the virus. The convergence of these events created the unprecedented dual impact of a global oil demand decline coupled with the risk of a substantial increase in supply. While OPEC+ agreed in April to cut production, there is no assurance that the agreement will continue or be observed by its parties, and downward pressure on commodity prices has continued and could continue for the foreseeable future.

Given the nature and significance of the events described above, we are not able to enumerate all potential risks to our business; however, we believe that in addition to the impacts described above, other current and potential impacts of these recent events include, but are not limited to:
disruption to our supply chain for raw materials essential to our business, including restrictions on importing and exporting products;
notices from customers, suppliers and other third parties arguing that their non-performance under our contracts with them is permitted as a result of force majeure or other reasons;
liquidity challenges, including impacts related to delayed customer payments and payment defaults associated with customer liquidity issues and bankruptcies;
a credit rating downgrade of our corporate debt and potentially higher borrowing costs in the future;
a need to preserve liquidity, which could result in a further reduction or suspension of our quarterly dividend or a delay or change in our capital investment plan;
cybersecurity issues, as digital technologies may become more vulnerable and experience a higher rate of cyberattacks in the current environment of remote connectivity;
litigation risk and possible loss contingencies related to COVID-19 and its impact, including with respect to commercial contracts, employee matters and insurance arrangements;
a further reduction of our global workforce to adjust to market conditions, including severance payments, retention issues, and an inability to hire employees when market conditions improve;
additional costs associated with rationalization of our portfolio of real estate facilities, including possible exit of leases and facility closures to align with expected activity and workforce capacity;
additional asset impairments, including an impairment of the carrying value of our goodwill, along with other accounting charges;
infections and quarantining of our employees and the personnel of our customers, suppliers and other third parties in areas in which we operate;
changes in the regulation of the production of hydrocarbons, such as the imposition of limitations on the production of oil and gas by states or other jurisdictions, that may result in additional limits on demand for our products and services;
HAL Q2 2020 FORM 10-Q | 27

Part II. Item 1(a) | Risk Factors
actions undertaken by national, regional and local governments and health officials to contain COVID-19 or treat its effects; and
a structural shift in the global economy and its demand for oil and natural gas as a result of changes in the way people work, travel and interact, or in connection with a global recession or depression.

Given the dynamic nature of these events, we cannot reasonably estimate the period of time that the COVID-19 pandemic and related market conditions will persist, the full extent of the impact they will have on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows or the pace or extent of any subsequent recovery.

The confluence of events described above have had a significant adverse impact on the oil and gas industry and a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition. We cannot predict when the continuing adverse effect on us will end, and depending on the duration of the pandemic and its severity, this adverse effect could worsen.
