National Oilwell Varco Announces First Quarter 2013 Earnings and Backlog

National Oilwell Varco, Inc. (NYSE: NOV) today reported that for its
first quarter ended March 31, 2013 it earned net income of $502 million,
or $1.17 per fully diluted share, compared to fourth quarter ended
December 31, 2012 net income of $668 million, or $1.56 per fully diluted
share. The first quarter 2013 results included transaction costs
primarily related to the Robbins & Myers acquisition and Venezuela
currency devaluation charges, which combined for a total of $73 million
in pre-tax costs and charges. Excluding these costs and charges,
earnings were $553 million, or $1.29 per fully diluted share.
Revenues for the first quarter of 2013 were $5.31 billion, a decrease of
seven percent from the fourth quarter of 2012 and an increase of 23
percent from the first quarter of 2012. Operating profit for the
quarter, excluding the transaction charges, was $816 million, or 15.4
percent of sales. Sequentially, first quarter operating profit decreased
14 percent, while year-over-year first quarter operating profit
decreased seven percent.
Backlog for capital equipment orders for the Company′s Rig Technology
segment at March 31, 2013 was a record at $12.92 billion, up eight
percent from the fourth quarter of 2012, and up 24 percent from the
first quarter of 2012. New orders during the quarter were $3.04 billion,
reflecting continued strong demand for oilfield equipment.
Pete Miller, Chairman and CEO of National Oilwell Varco, remarked, 'The
North American market was softer than anticipated; however, our strong
backlog for drilling equipment, coupled with the recent investments that
we have made in acquisitions, international expansion and incremental
capacity, enabled our Company to generate solid earnings in the first
quarter. As we move through the year, we expect to see continued
improvements in international activity, strong industry demand for both
floaters and jackups, and a heightened level of interest and orders in
our floating production equipment offering.? Miller continued,
'Additionally, while we are cautious regarding the timing of a North
America recovery, we remain confident that land drillers and well
service firms will soon consume their current inventories, ultimately
requiring more of our products and services. Until that time, we take
comfort in knowing that we are well positioned for this market, given
our strong financial resources, unparalleled market presence,
exceptional backlog, and extraordinary workforce.?
Rig Technology
First quarter revenues for the Rig Technology segment were $2.63
billion, a decrease of nine percent from the fourth quarter of 2012 and
an increase of 16 percent from the first quarter of 2012. Operating
profit for this segment was $557 million, or 21.2 percent of sales.
Operating profit flow-through (change in operating profit divided by the
change in revenue) was two percent from the first quarter of 2012 to the
first quarter of 2013. Revenue out of backlog for the segment increased
16 percent year-over-year, and was down ten percent from the fourth
quarter of 2012 to $1.98 billion for the first quarter of 2013.
Petroleum Services & Supplies
Revenues for the first quarter of 2013 for the Petroleum Services &
Supplies segment were $1.70 billion, down four percent compared to

profit flow-through was down 64 percent from the fourth quarter of 2012
to the first quarter of 2013.
Distribution & Transmission
The Distribution & Transmission segment generated first quarter revenues
of $1.23 billion, down three percent from the fourth quarter of 2012 and
up 118 percent from the first quarter of 2012 (due mostly to previously
disclosed mergers completed in 2012). First quarter operating profit was
$65 million, or 5.3 percent of sales. Operating profit flow-through was
three percent from the first quarter of 2012 to the first quarter of
2013.

Note 1: EBITDA means earnings before taxes, interest, depreciation,
amortization, and other costs, and is a non-GAAP measurement. Management
uses EBITDA because it believes it provides useful supplemental
information regarding the Company′s on-going economic performance and,
therefore, uses this financial measure internally to evaluate and manage
the Company′s operations. The Company has chosen to provide this
information to investors to enable them to perform more meaningful
comparisons of operating results and as a means to emphasize the results
of on-going operations.
