UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (“H&P” or the “Company”) and KCA Deutag International Ltd. (“KCA Deutag”) and present the Company’s pro forma financial position and results of operations resulting from the Company’s acquisition of KCA Deutag (the “Acquisition”) and the related financing.
On January 16, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), H&P completed the Acquisition pursuant to that certain Sale and Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 24, 2024, by and among H&P, KCA Deutag and the other parties thereto (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”). 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 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 account on the Closing Date pending the resolution of certain potential tax obligations of KCA Deutag. On the Closing Date, the Company drew an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million under an unsecured term loan credit agreement (“Term Loan Credit Agreement”) for purposes of financing the Acquisition. The cash consideration was funded through a combination of net proceeds from the Company’s September 2024 senior notes offering, net proceeds from the funding of the Company’s Term Loan Credit Agreement, cash on hand, and monetization of the Company’s investment in ADNOC Drilling.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024 (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”) gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on December 31, 2024, combining the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of H&P at December 31, 2024 and the audited consolidated balance sheet of KCA Deutag at December 31, 2024.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 and for the three months ended December 31, 2024 (the “Pro Forma Statements of Operations”) give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on October 1, 2023, combining the audited results of H&P for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 and the audited results of KCA Deutag for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and combining the unaudited results of H&P and KCA Deutag for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Therefore, the results of KCA Deutag for the three months ended December 31, 2024, are included in the Pro Forma Statements of Operations for both the year ended September 30, 2024 and the three months ended December 31, 2024.
The Pro Forma Balance Sheet and the Pro Forma Statements of Operations and the accompanying notes are hereafter collectively referred to as the “Pro Forma Financial Statements.”

The Pro Forma Financial Statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the actual financial position and results of operations of H&P that would have been achieved had the Acquisition and related financing transactions occurred on the Closing Date assumed above, and do not reflect adjustments for any anticipated integration costs, synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings. The actual financial condition and results of operations may differ from the amounts set forth in the Pro Forma Financial Statements and in the accompanying notes herein. Therefore, it is possible that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments, and it is possible such differences may be material. There can be no assurance that additional information and analyses will not result in material changes. Adjustments are based on preliminary information available to H&P’s management during the preparation of the Pro Forma Financial Statements and assumptions that H&P’s management believes are reasonable and supportable. The pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised by H&P as additional information becomes available and is evaluated.

The Pro Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the following:
the audited consolidated financial statements and notes as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, included in H&P’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on November 13, 2024 (“H&P’s 2024 Form 10-K”);
the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes as of and for the three months ended December 31, 2024, included in H&P’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on February 5, 2025 (“H&P’s Q1 2025 Form 10-Q”); and
the audited consolidated financial statements and notes of KCA Deutag as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 included as exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed by H&P on April 4, 2025.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Pro Forma Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended, and reflect the acquisition of the entire equity interest of KCA Deutag. The Acquisition will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, as prescribed in Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations, (“ASC 805”), under U.S. GAAP, which requires an allocation of the acquisition price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their fair values as of the date of the Acquisition. H&P performed a detailed valuation study necessary to arrive at the required preliminary estimates of the fair value of KCA Deutag’s assets acquired, and liabilities assumed and the related allocations of acquisition price.
The H&P historical financial information included in the Pro Forma Financial Statements has been derived from the financial statements included within H&P’s 2024 Form 10-K and H&P’s Q1 2025 Form 10-Q. The KCA Deutag historical financial information included in the Pro Forma Financial Statements has been derived from KCA Deutag’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the unaudited statement of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2024.
The Pro Forma Balance Sheet gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on December 31, 2024, combining the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of H&P at December 31, 2024 and the audited consolidated balance sheet of KCA Deutag at December 31, 2024.
The Pro Forma Statements of Operations give effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on October 1, 2023, combining the audited results of H&P for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 and the audited results of KCA Deutag for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and combining the unaudited results of H&P and KCA Deutag for the three months ended December 31, 2024.
The historical consolidated financial statements of H&P were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and are shown in U.S. dollars. The historical consolidated financial statements of KCA Deutag were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”) and are shown in U.S. dollars. Refer to Note 2 for certain reclassification adjustments that have been made to conform KCA Deutag’s historical financial statement presentation to H&P’s financial statement presentation. Refer to Note 4 for the adjustments identified by H&P to preliminarily convert KCA Deutag’s historical financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS to U.S. GAAP and align KCA Deutag’s accounting policies to H&P’s accounting policies.
H&P prepares its consolidated financial statements on the basis of a fiscal year ended September 30th. The consolidated financial statements of KCA Deutag have historically been prepared on a basis of a fiscal year ended December 31st. In accordance with applicable SEC rules, if the fiscal year-end of an acquired entity differs from the acquirer’s fiscal year end by one quarter or less, the entities may combine their historical financial information in pro forma financial statements without any recasting of periods. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the year ended September 30, 2024 was prepared using the audited statements of operations for H&P and KCA Deutag for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2024 and December 30, 2024, respectively. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was prepared using the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for H&P and KCA Deutag for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Therefore, the results of operations of KCA Deutag for the three months ended December 31, 2024, are included in the Pro Forma Statements of Operations for both the year ended September 30, 2024, and the three months ended December 31, 2024.
The Pro Forma Statements of Operations disclose the basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations on both a historical and pro forma basis. The Acquisition has no impact on the weighted average shares outstanding used in the computation of earnings per share.

NOTE 3 PRELIMINARY IFRS TO U.S. GAAP CONVERSION ADJUSTMENTS AND POLICY ADJUSTMENTS
IFRS differs in certain material respects from U.S. GAAP. The following adjustments have been made to reflect KCA Deutag’s historical audited and unaudited consolidated statements of operations and consolidated balance sheet on a U.S. GAAP basis for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma financial information. The Pro Forma Financial Statements reflects the adjustments necessary to convert KCA Deutag’s historical financial statements to U.S. GAAP and to conform to H&P’s accounting policies based on an initial policy conversion assessment performed by management. Additional differences were identified; however no adjustments were made as the impact of these differences were deemed immaterial.
(a)KCA Deutag's accounting policy is to accrue and recognize demobilization costs of rigs in profit and loss over the primary term of the drilling contract on a straight line basis while H&P's accounting policy is to expense the demobilization costs as incurred. This adjustment is to eliminate the balance of accrued demobilization costs from the balance sheet of KCA Deutag as of December 31, 2024, with a corresponding adjustment recorded to retained earnings (accumulated deficit) of KCA Deutag as of the same date. In addition, demobilization costs accrued for but not yet incurred by KCA Deutag during fiscal year 2024 and the three months ended December 31, 2024 but accrued for as of December 31, 2024 were estimated through the change between the beginning and ending balances of accrued demobilization costs and then added to the drilling services operating expenses for each of these periods. The following table illustrates the balances of accrued demobilization cost and the related change by period:
(in thousands)
Accrued demobilization costs as of December 31, 2024

Accrued demobilization costs as of September 30, 2024

Pro forma adjustment to drilling services operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024
$5,809 
(b)KCA Deutag leases a number of cranes, vehicles and other transportation equipment under purchase orders. KCA Deutag’s management estimates the lease term as being the same length as the customer contract on which the equipment will be used, on the basis that the equipment will be needed to deliver that contract. Accordingly, a corresponding lease liability and right of use asset is recognized. This estimate differs from H&P’s management estimate where the lease term for cranes is deemed to be a short term lease (12 months or less). The following pro forma adjustment is to eliminate the lease liability and the corresponding right of use assets that are recorded in KCA Deutag's historical balance sheet as of December 31, 2024:
(in thousands)
Lease liabilities - current$24,986 
Lease liabilities - noncurrent36,754 
Operating lease right-of-use assets$61,740 
10


(c)Under IFRS, KCA Deutag recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for its leases. However, as required by IFRS, KCA Deutag does not distinguish between operating leases and finance leases and accounts for all leases recorded on the balance sheet similarly to finance leases under U.S. GAAP. KCA Deutag records depreciation on all right-of-use assets and interest expense on all lease liabilities, while a straight-line operating expense is presented for operating leases under U.S. GAAP. The impact on the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 is as follows:
(in thousands)Drilling services operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortizationSelling, general and administrative expenseTotal
Reclassification of the amortization of the right-of-use asset from depreciation and amortization to:$60,900 $1,100 $62,000 
Reclassification of interest on lease liabilities from interest expense to:
12,500 — 12,500 
$73,400 $1,100 $74,500 
(d)KCA Deutag's accounting policy is to report foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in the line items to which they relate, while H&P aggregates all transaction gains and losses and presents the net amount in a single caption within operating income in the statement of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2024, KCA Deutag recognized $4.9 million of exchange gains, resulting from the translation of pension liabilities which are largely denominated in Euros and classified as finance costs within the KCA Deutag historical financials. This adjustment reclassifies the foreign exchange gains from interest expense into operating expenses to conform with H&P’s accounting policy.
(e)Under IFRS, KCA Deutag recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for its leases. However, as required by IFRS, KCA Deutag does not distinguish between operating leases and finance leases and accounts for all leases recorded on the balance sheets similarly to finance leases under U.S. GAAP. KCA Deutag records depreciation on all right-of-use assets and interest expense on all lease liabilities, while a straight-line operating expense is presented for operating leases under U.S. GAAP. The impact on the statement of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2024 is as follows:
(in thousands)Drilling services operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortizationSelling, general and administrative expenseTotal
Reclassification of the amortization of the right-of-use asset from depreciation and amortization to:$15,655 $— $15,655 
Reclassification of interest on lease liabilities from interest expense to:
2,900 — 2,900 
$18,555 $— $18,555 
(f)KCA Deutag's accounting policy is to report foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in the line items to which they relate while H&P aggregates all transaction gains and losses and classify the net amount in a single caption within operating income in the statement of operations. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, KCA Deutag recognized $13.0 million of exchange gains, resulting from the translation of pension liabilities which are largely denominated in Euros and classified as finance costs within the KCA Deutag historical financials. This adjustment reclassifies the foreign exchange gains from interest expense into operating expenses to conform to H&P’s accounting policy.
(g)KCA Deutag’s accounting policy is to recognize revenue related to capital upgrades on drilling rigs requested by the customer, when invoiced, whereas H&P policy is to defer these revenues and recognize in profit and loss over the primary term of the drilling contract on a straight line basis. This adjustment is to derecognize KCA Deutag revenues by $1.2 million and $2.2 million for revenue that would have been deferred under H&P’s accounting policy during the three months ended December 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2024, respectively.
(h)Under IFRS, KCA Deutag’s actuarial gains or losses resulting from the remeasurement of its pension plans are recognized in Other comprehensive income and are not subsequently recognized in Net income, whereas U.S. GAAP requires actuarial gains or losses to be recognized in net income in future periods after they are initially recognized in Other comprehensive income. This adjustment of $4.6 million is intended to adjust KCA Deutag’s benefit costs with the amortization of actuarial gains and loss recorded in Other comprehensive income that would have been recognized in net income during the year ended December 31, 2024.
(i)Under IFRS, KCA Deutag’s actuarial gains or losses resulting from the remeasurement of its pension plans are recognized in Other comprehensive income and are not subsequently recognized in Net income, whereas U.S. GAAP requires actuarial gains or losses to be recognized in net income in future periods after they are initially recognized in Other comprehensive income. This adjustment of $1.1 million is intended to adjust KCA Deutag’s benefit costs with the amortization of actuarial gains and loss recorded in Other comprehensive income that would have been recognized in net income during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
(j)Under IFRS, KCA Deutag’s costs related to certain research activities are expensed as incurred and costs relating to development activities are capitalized after meeting certain conditions, whereas U.S. GAAP requires costs relating to research and development activities to be expensed as incurred. This adjustment of $0.9 million is to expense development costs capitalized by KCA Deutag during the year ended December 31, 2024.
11


(k)Under IFRS, KCA Deutag’s costs related to certain research activities are expensed as incurred and costs relating to development activities are capitalized after meeting certain conditions, whereas U.S. GAAP requires costs relating to research and development activities to be expensed as incurred. This adjustment of $0.2 million is to expense development costs capitalized by KCA Deutag during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
(l)Under both U.S. GAAP and IFRS, investments in equity securities are carried and measured at fair value; however, KCA Deutag has elected the IFRS option to recognize changes in fair value of equity investments in other comprehensive income (OCI). This adjustment of $(0.3) million and $(1.0) million is to record the loss on investments in equity securities carried at fair value on the statement of operations rather than OCI during the three months and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively.
(m)Adjustment represents the preliminary assessment of the tax impact of all the U.S. GAAP and policy alignment adjustments as applicable. The tax rates applicable for U.S. GAAP and policy adjustments affecting H&P and KCA Deutag are the statutory tax rates. Actual results might significantly differ than this preliminary assessment.

NOTE 4 TRANSACTION ACCOUNTING AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS
PRELIMINARY PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION
The total purchase consideration for the Acquisition has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information based on their estimated relative fair values. The allocation of the purchase consideration herein is preliminary. The final allocation of the purchase consideration for the Acquisition will be determined after the completion of a thorough analysis to determine the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed but in no event later than one year following the completion of the Acquisition.
Accordingly, the final acquisition accounting adjustments could differ materially from the preliminary amounts presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
12


Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as compared to the information shown herein, could also change the portion of the purchase consideration allocable to goodwill and could impact the operating results of H&P following the Acquisition due to differences in the allocation of the purchase consideration, depreciation and amortization related to some of these assets and liabilities.
The below summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of KCA Deutag for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements as of the Closing Date.
