Baker Hughes Company Announces Third-Quarter 2024 Results
Third-quarter highlights
Orders of $6.7 billion, including $2.9 billion of IET orders.
RPO of $33.4 billion, including record IET RPO of $30.2 billion.
Revenue of $6.9 billion, up 4% year-over-year.
Attributable net income of $766 million.
GAAP diluted EPS of $0.77 and adjusted diluted EPS* of $0.67.
Adjusted EBITDA* of $1,208 million, up 23% year-over-year.
Cash flows from operating activities of $1,010 million and free cash flow* of $754 million.
Returns to shareholders of $361 million, including $152 million of share repurchases.
HOUSTON & LONDON (October 22, 2024) – Baker Hughes Company (Nasdaq: BKR) ("Baker Hughes" or the "Company") announced results today for the third quarter of 2024.
"We delivered another quarter of record EBITDA, highlighted by exceptional operational performance across both segments. Our margins continue to improve at an accelerated pace, with total company EBITDA margins increasing to 17.5%. This marks the highest margin quarter since the company was formed. On the back of our solid third-quarter results and stable outlook, we remain confident in achieving our full-year EBITDA guidance midpoint," said Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
"Orders remain at solid levels, with IET orders of $2.9 billion marking the eighth consecutive quarter at or above these levels. IET continued to demonstrate strong order momentum for gas infrastructure and FPSOs, booking the largest ever ICL compressor award from Dubai Petroleum Establishment for the Margham Gas storage facility and two FPSO awards with separate offshore operators."
"Overall, our segments continue to make strong progress on their journey toward 20% EBITDA margins, with both segments achieving high-teen margins during the quarter. Our operational discipline and rigor continue to gain traction."
"We are also benefiting from the life-cycle attributes of our service offerings and the breadth of our portfolio. With significant recurring IET service revenue, strong production-levered businesses, untapped market opportunities, and improved cost structure, we are becoming less cyclical and capable of generating more durable earnings and free cash flow across cycles."
"We are successfully executing our strategy, and this is a testament to the strength of our people and the culture we are building," concluded Simonelli.

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

Quarter Highlights
Industrial & Energy Technology ("IET") experienced a strong quarter for its Integrated Compressor Line ("ICL") technology. In its largest ICL award to-date, and booked under Climate Technology Solutions ("CTS"), Baker Hughes will supply 10 units to Dubai Petroleum Establishment for the Margham Gas storage facility. These ICL units will support gas infrastructure, providing stability to Dubai's energy supply by strengthening the system's ability to switch between natural gas and solar power.
IET's Gas Technology Equipment ("GTE") was also awarded a significant contract to supply advanced compression solutions to Saipem for TotalEnergies' all-electric Kaminho Floating Production Storage and Offloading ("FPSO") project in Angola. Baker Hughes' centrifugal BCL compressor and ICL technology were selected because of the capability to minimize greenhouse emissions and eliminate routine flaring by reinjecting associated gas into the reservoir for storage. Separately, IET was selected to provide electric motor-driven process compressors for an FPSO project in Latin America.
IET's Gas Technology Services ("GTS") secured a multi-decade agreement for an LNG facility in the Middle East. The scope encompasses extensive maintenance services and digital solutions, leveraging Baker Hughes' iCenter™ Remote Monitoring and Diagnostics capabilities.
Oilfield Services & Equipment ("OFSE") strengthened the Company's relationship with Petrobras, receiving contracts to supply 43 miles of flexible pipe systems in Brazil's Santos Basin. A significant portion of these risers and flowlines will be manufactured in-country at Baker Hughes' Niteroi plant. The contracts, awarded through an open tender, include multi-year service agreements to support maintenance activities through the life of the project and demonstrate Baker Hughes' dedication to providing equipment and services critical to help Petrobras achieve its strategic plan to expand operations.
In OFSE, mature assets solutions ("MAS") delivered a strong order quarter, illustrating confidence in the Company's full range of workflows and solutions to accelerate production and total recovery. OFSE won a MAS award to supply Santos Energy's strategic and historic Cooper Basin Development in Australia with drilling fluids and wireline services, marking Baker Hughes' return to the basin. Additionally, OFSE signed a multi-year contract extension with a customer in the Middle East for completions and well intervention.

Baker Hughes saw increased adoption of Leucipa™, the Company's intelligent automated field production digital solution. A major global operator expanded the use of Leucipa across multiple fields in the Permian Basin, enabling the customer to optimize production through real-time field orchestration to generate lower-carbon, short-cycle barrels. Additionally, a new strategic collaboration was established early in the fourth quarter with Repsol, a major customer of Leucipa, to develop and deploy next-generation artificial intelligence capabilities for this digital solution. The companies will share knowledge and expertise to optimize and enhance production across Repsol's global portfolio while creating new commercial opportunities for Baker Hughes.
Baker Hughes continues to innovate new digital technologies to support customers on their decarbonization journey. The Company launched CarbonEdge™, powered by Cordant™, an end-to-end, risk-based digital solution that delivers precise, real-time data and alerts on carbon dioxide (CO2) flows across CCUS infrastructure from subsurface to surface. This solution enables operators to mitigate risk, improve decision-making, enhance operational efficiency, and simplify regulatory reporting across the entire project lifecycle.

Baker Hughes Company News Release
Baker Hughes Company Announces Third-Quarter 2024 Results
Depreciation and amortization for the third quarter of 2024 was $278 million.
Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the third quarter of 2024 was $1,208 million. There were no adjustments to EBITDA in the third quarter. See Table 1b in the section titled "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures." Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter was up 7% sequentially and up 23% year-over-year.
The sequential increase in adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA was driven by higher pricing in both segments and structural cost-out initiatives, partially offset by lower volume in both segments. The year-over-year increase in adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA was driven by higher pricing in both segments, higher volume in IET, and structural cost-out initiatives, partially offset by cost inflation in IET and unfavorable business mix in both segments.
Other Financial Items
Remaining Performance Obligations ("RPO") in the third quarter ended at $33.4 billion, a decrease of $0.1 billion from the second quarter of 2024. OFSE RPO was $3.2 billion, down 5% sequentially, while IET RPO was $30.2 billion, up $44 million sequentially. Within IET RPO, GTE RPO was $11.9 billion and GTS RPO was $14.8 billion.

Cash flow from operating activities was $1,010 million for the third quarter of 2024. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the quarter was $754 million. A reconciliation from GAAP has been provided in Table 1d in the section titled "Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures."

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.
