Internal Revenue Service Notice of Proposed Adjustment. We are subject to taxes in the United States and in numerous jurisdictions where we operate or where our subsidiaries are organized. Our tax returns are routinely subject to examination by the taxing authorities in the jurisdictions where we file tax returns. In most cases we are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities for years before 2013. The only significant operating jurisdiction that has tax filings under review or subject to examination by the tax authorities is the United States. Our United States federal income tax filings for tax years 2016 through 2023, including carry back of 2016 net operating losses to 2014, are currently under review or remain open for review by the Internal Revenue Service (the IRS).

Accounting Policies 104 words changed in this paragraph; it is 31% similar to last year's version.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing valuation allowances.

Since early 2021, world-wide oil and natural gas supply and demand imbalances and related volatility of oil and natural gas prices (including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic) have resulted in dramatic fluctuations in oil and natural gas markets. The volatility continued in 2024 as markets were impacted by macroeconomic uncertainty, non-OPEC supply growth, lack of demand recovery in China, geopolitical unrest in the Middle East and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. In the U.S., oil and natural gas production in 2024 remained elevated, despite a generally declining rig count, as a result of the industry's focus on efficiencies and higher service intensity. Lower commodity pricing and U.S. land rig counts generally contributed to softness in the market for energy products and services in North America. The international rig count was relatively flat in 2024, as gains in Africa and the Middle East were offset by reductions in Latin America.

Globally, we continue to be impacted by extended supply chain lead times for the supply of select raw materials. We monitor market trends and work to mitigate cost impacts through economies of scale in global procurement, technology modifications, and efficient sourcing practices. Also, while we have been impacted by inflationary cost increases, primarily related to chemicals, cement, and logistics costs, we generally try to pass much of those increases on to our customers and we believe we have effective solutions to minimize their operational impact.

In 2021, we announced our target to achieve a 40% reduction in our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2035 from the 2018 baseline. During 2024, we continued to execute on our priorities to drive down our emissions intensity. At the same time, we support our customers in their emissions reduction efforts by continuously developing and deploying goods and services that are accretive to their goals as well as ours. As the energy mix transition unfolds, we seek to apply our expertise and resources in growth sectors adjacent to our traditional oilfield services space, including carbon capture, utilization, and storage, and geothermal. Finally, we will continue to focus on accelerating the success of clean tech start-ups via Halliburton Labs, which also allows us to participate in the energy mix transition at relatively low risk by investing our expertise, resources, and team without a significant outlay of capital while we learn where we can strategically engage new markets. As of December 31, 2024, Halliburton Labs had 38 participants and alumni organizations.

Additionally, we published our 2023 Annual and Sustainability Report (ASR) in April of 2024, which detailed our strategy and progress on sustainability issues, as well as our efforts on increased environmental reporting transparency, including conducting a climate-risk scenario analysis, and expect to publish our 2024 ASR in April of 2025. Information on our website, including the ASR, is not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We manufacture most of our own equipment, which provides us with some flexibility to increase or decrease our capital expenditures based on market conditions. We currently expect capital spending for 2025 to be approximately 6% of revenue. We believe this level of spend will allow us to invest in our key strategic technologies and businesses, including the construction and deployment of our Zeus electric fracturing systems in North America and the international growth of our artificial lift, well intervention, unconventionals, and drilling technologies. We will continue to maintain capital discipline and monitor the rapidly changing market dynamics, and we may adjust our capital spend accordingly.

During 2023, we began our migration to SAP S4 which we now expect to complete in the first half of 2026. We now estimate the total project investment to increase between $20 million and $30 million above our initial $250 million forecast, of which we have incurred $124 million through December 31, 2024. For 2025, we expect to spend approximately $100 million on this project. We believe the new system will provide important efficiency benefits, cost savings, enhanced visibility to our operations, and advanced analytics that will benefit us and our customers.

Financial position in current market. As of December 31, 2024, we had $2.6 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.5 billion of available committed bank credit under a revolving credit facility with an expiration date of April 27, 2027. We believe we have a manageable debt maturity profile, with approximately $471 million coming due beginning in 2025 through 2027, with the majority coming due in 2025. 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 provide sufficient liquidity to address the challenges and opportunities of the current market and our expected global cash needs for 2025, including capital expenditures, working capital investments, shareholder returns, if any, and debt repurchases, if any, and scheduled interest and principal payments.

Guarantee agreements. In the normal course of business, we have agreements with financial institutions under which approximately $2.8 billion letters of credit, bank guarantees, or surety bonds were outstanding as of December 31, 2024. Some of the outstanding letters of credit have triggering events that would entitle a bank to require cash collateralization, however, none of these triggering events have occurred. As of December 31, 2024, we had no material off-balance sheet liabilities and were not required to make any material cash distributions to our unconsolidated subsidiaries.

We have entered into credit default swaps (CDSs) with third-party financial institutions that had an aggregate notional amount outstanding as of December 31, 2024 of $739 million related to borrowings provided by the financial institutions to one of our primary customers in Mexico, of which a portion of the proceeds were then utilized by this customer to pay certain of our outstanding receivables. Approximately $186 million of the outstanding amount of the CDSs reduces on a monthly basis over its remaining 14-month term and $203 million reduces on a monthly basis over its remaining 18-month term. The remaining $350 million outstanding amount is expected to increase to as much as $805 million in the first quarter of 2025 and will reduce over its remaining 19-month term beginning February 2025.

We operate in more than 70 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. In 2024, 2023, and 2022, based on the location of services provided and products sold, 40%, 44%, and 45%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue was from the United States. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our revenue.

Driven in large part by a decrease in the average North America rig count in 2024 2025 as compared to 2023, 2024, our North America revenue decreased 8% in 2024, resulting from lower pressure pumping services in U.S. land, reduced wireline activity, and decreased fluid services in the region.
