    Valaris Limited (NYSE:VAL) ("Valaris" or the "Company") today reported fourth quarter 2024 results.

    President and Chief Executive Officer Anton Dibowitz said, "We continued to deliver solid operating and financial performance, achieving fleetwide revenue efficiency of 96% in the fourth quarter and 97% for the full year. We also had outstanding safety performance in 2024 and are proud to have been recognized with safety awards by both the IADC and the Center for Offshore Safety. I thank every member of the Valaris team around the world for their dedication, hard work and continued focus on operating safely and efficiently for our customers."

    Dibowitz added, "The contracting outlook for 2026 and beyond remains strong for high-specification assets and we are focused on securing attractive, long-term programs for our active rigs. We will also continue to prudently manage our fleet as demonstrated by our recent actions to reduce costs for idle rigs and further focus our fleet on high-specification assets."

    Dibowitz concluded, "We are steadfast in our belief that offshore oil and gas will play an important role in providing secure, reliable and affordable energy to the world. Valaris is well-positioned to help meet that need and drive sustainable, long-term value creation for our shareholders by virtue of our high-specification fleet and excellent safety and operational track record."

    Financial and Operational Highlights

    • Delivered net income of $131 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $142 million;
    • Achieved revenue efficiency of 96% during the quarter and 97% for the year;
    • Generated $125 million of cash from operating activities and $13 million of Free Cash Flow;
    • Repurchased $25 million of shares;
    • Recognized by the International Association of Drilling Contractors ("IADC") Brazil Chapter with its 2024 Safety Award;
    • Secured approximately $120 million of contract backlog, including a multi-year contract for jackup VALARIS Stavanger in the North Sea; and
    • Announced in the first quarter 2025 the planned retirement of semisubmersibles VALARIS DPS-3, DPS-5 and DPS-6 and the sale of jackup VALARIS 75 for $24 million.

    Fourth Quarter Review

    Net income increased to $131 million from $63 million in the third quarter 2024, including a tax benefit of $7 million compared to tax expense of $24 million in the third quarter. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $142 million from $150 million in the third quarter primarily due to lower utilization for the floater fleet, partially offset by more operating days for the jackup fleet.

    Revenues exclusive of reimbursable items decreased to $548 million from $600 million in the third quarter primarily due to lower utilization for the floater fleet and lower amortized mobilization revenue, partially offset by more operating days for the jackup fleet.

    Exclusive of reimbursable items, contract drilling expenses decreased to $381 million from $423 million in the third quarter primarily due to lower amortized mobilization expense, lower costs associated with rigs that were idle during the quarter and lower repair costs.

    Depreciation expense increased to $34 million from $32 million in the third quarter 2024. General and administrative expenses decreased to $27 million from $31 million in the third quarter 2024 primarily due to lower compensation costs and professional fees.

    Other income of $5 million compared to other expense of $8 million in the third quarter 2024. This increase was primarily due to foreign currency exchange gains compared to losses in the third quarter.

    Tax benefit of $7 million compared to tax expense of $24 million in the third quarter 2024. The fourth quarter tax provision included $16 million of discrete tax benefit, which was primarily attributable to changes in liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years. Exclusive of discrete tax items, tax expense decreased to $9 million from $24 million in the third quarter.

    Capital expenditures increased to $112 million from $82 million in the third quarter 2024 primarily due to higher rig upgrade expenditures related to contract preparations for VALARIS 144 and DS-4.

    Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased to $381 million as of December 31, 2024, from $392 million as of September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to capital expenditures and share repurchases, partially offset by cash flow from operations.

    Fourth Quarter Segment Review

    Floaters

    Revenues exclusive of reimbursable items decreased to $328 million from $375 million in the third quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower utilization for the floater fleet associated with out of service time for VALARIS DS-15 and DS-17 to meet regulatory requirements in Brazil and for VALARIS DS-4 to complete upgrade work prior to the start of its contract as well as idle time for VALARIS DS-10 and DPS-5, which completed contracts during the third quarter.

    Exclusive of reimbursable items, contract drilling expenses decreased to $211 million from $235 million in the third quarter primarily due to capitalization of costs for VALARIS DS-4 during its shipyard upgrade project, lower costs for VALARIS DPS-5 and DS-10 while the rigs were warm stacked during the fourth quarter and lower mobilization expense.

    Jackups

    Revenues exclusive of reimbursable items decreased to $188 million from $193 million in the third quarter primarily due to lower amortized mobilization revenue associated with VALARIS 247. This was partially offset by more operating days for the jackup fleet primarily due to VALARIS 249 returning to work after completing leg repairs and a full quarter of operations for VALARIS 247 and 122.

    Exclusive of reimbursable items, contract drilling expenses decreased to $114 million from $137 million in the third quarter primarily due to lower amortized mobilization expense associated with VALARIS 247 and lower repair costs for VALARIS 249.

    ARO Drilling

    Revenues increased to $136 million from $114 million in the third quarter 2024 primarily due to a full quarter of operations for Kingdom 2, which commenced its maiden contract in the third quarter, and more operating days for Kingdom 1 due to out of service time in the prior quarter. Contract drilling expenses decreased to $82 million from $94 million in the third quarter primarily due to lower bareboat charter expense.

    Other

    Revenues exclusive of reimbursable items increased to $33 million from $32 million in the third quarter 2024. Exclusive of reimbursable items, contract drilling expenses increased to $18 million from $15 million in the third quarter due to higher survey costs for rigs leased to ARO.

    (1) The full operating results included above for ARO are not included within our consolidated results and thus deducted under "Reconciling Items" and replaced with our equity in earnings of ARO.

     

    (2) Our onshore support costs included within contract drilling expenses are not allocated to our operating segments for purposes of measuring segment operating income (loss) and as such, these costs are included in "Reconciling Items." Further, general and administrative expense and depreciation expense incurred by our corporate office are not allocated to our operating segments for purposes of measuring segment operating income (loss) and are included in "Reconciling Items."

     

    (3) Certain previously reported line items presented in the table above (Total operating revenues and Total contract drilling expenses (exclusive of depreciation)) were further disaggregated to separately disclose Reimbursable revenues and Reimbursable expenses, respectively, to align with the updated presentation of our segment tables upon the adoption of ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("Update 2023-07"). The disaggregation of these line items was presentational only and was retrospectively applied to the prior periods presented. There were no impacts to the overall Total operating revenues or Total contract drilling expense (exclusive of depreciation) line items.

    As previously announced, Valaris will hold its fourth quarter 2024 earnings conference call at 9:00 a.m. CT (10:00 a.m. ET) on Thursday, February 20, 2025.

    Our contract drilling backlog reflects commitments, represented by signed drilling contracts, and is calculated by multiplying the contracted day rate by the contract period. Contract drilling backlog may include drilling contracts subject to final investment decision ("FID") and drilling contracts which grant the customer termination rights if FID is not received with respect to projects for which the drilling rig is contracted. The contracted day rate excludes certain types of lump sum fees for rig mobilization, demobilization, contract preparation, as well as customer reimbursables and bonus opportunities.

    Represents the total number of days under contract in the period. Days under contract equals the total number of days that rigs have earned and recognized day rate revenue, including days associated with early contract terminations, compensated downtime and mobilizations. When revenue is deferred and amortized over a future period, for example when we receive fees while mobilizing to commence a new contract or while being upgraded in a shipyard, the related days are excluded from days under contract.

    Contract drilling backlog reflects commitments, represented by signed drilling contracts, and is calculated by multiplying the contracted day rate by the contract period. The contracted day rate excludes certain types of lump sum fees for rig mobilization, demobilization, contract preparation, as well as customer reimbursables and bonus opportunities.

    (2)

    Leased rigs backlog as of July 29, 2024, included approximately $113 million related to the drilling contracts for VALARIS 147 and VALARIS 148, which previously received suspension notices from Saudi Aramco. The contracts were subsequently terminated and are no longer included in leased rigs backlog as of October 30, 2024.

    (1)

    Average daily revenue is derived by dividing Revenues (exclusive of reimbursable revenues), by the aggregate number of operating days.

    (2)

    All ARO leased rigs are leased from Valaris.

    (3)

    Rig utilization is derived by dividing the number of operating days by the number of available days in the period for the rig fleet.

    (4)

    Revenue efficiency is day rate revenue earned as a percentage of maximum potential day rate revenue.

    (5)

    Represents the maximum number of days available in the period for the rig fleet, calculated by multiplying the number of rigs in each asset category by the number of days in the period, irrespective of asset status.

    (6)

    Represents the total number of days under contract in the period. Days under contract equals the total number of days that rigs have earned and recognized day rate revenue, including days associated with early contract terminations, compensated downtime and mobilizations. When revenue is deferred and amortized over a future period, for example when we receive fees while mobilizing to commence a new contract or while being upgraded in a shipyard, the related days are excluded from days under contract.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)

    To supplement Valaris' condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, this press release provides investors with Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDAR and Free Cash Flow, which are non-GAAP measures.

    Valaris defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net income (loss) before income tax expense, interest expense, other (income) expense, depreciation expense, amortization, and equity in (earnings) losses of ARO. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that our management uses to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance and to evaluate our long-term financial performance against that of our peers. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of our core operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies within our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered (a) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), (b) as an indication of cash flows from operating activities, or (c) as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

    Valaris defines "Adjusted EBITDAR" as Adjusted EBITDA before reactivation costs. Adjusted EBITDAR is a non-GAAP measure that our management uses to assess the performance of our fleet excluding one-time rig reactivation costs. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDAR should not be considered (a) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), (b) as an indication of cash flows from operating activities, or (c) as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDAR may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

    Valaris defines "ARO Adjusted EBITDA" as ARO's net income (loss) before income tax expense, other expense, net, depreciation expense and loss on impairment. ARO Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that our management uses to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of ARO's core operating performance and to evaluate ARO's long-term financial performance against that of ARO's peers. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of ARO's core operating performance and makes it easier to compare ARO's results with those of other companies within ARO's industry. ARO Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered (a) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), (b) as an indication of cash flows from operating activities, or (c) as a measure of liquidity. ARO Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

    The Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the Company's forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA, as discussed on its fourth quarter 2024 earnings conference call, to the most directly comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts necessary for such a reconciliation, including forward-looking tax expense and other income (expense).

    Valaris defines "Free Cash Flow" as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure that our management uses to assess the cash generation of our fleet after paying operating expenses and capital expenditures to maintain and upgrade our assets. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of the cash generation of our business.

    Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
