4 HALLIBURTON COMPANY NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 1. Management Representation The Company employs accounting policies that are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires Company management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Ultimate results could differ from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements present information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and applicable rules of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information or footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the Company, the financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of June 30, 1996, and the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 and its cash flows for the six months then ended. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 may not be indicative of results for the full year. In connection with the discontinuance of the Company's insurance segment, the Company has adopted a classified balance sheet format. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Note 2. Inventories
June 30 December 31 1996 1995 --------- ----------- Millions of dollars Sales items $ 91.4 $ 85.2 Supplies and parts 152.0 121.7 Work in process 41.7 27.1 Raw materials 21.2 17.5 ========= =========== Total $ 306.3 $ 251.5 ========= ===========
About one-third of all sales items (including related work in process and raw materials) are valued using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. If the average cost method had been in use for inventories on the LIFO basis, total inventories would have been about $20.9 million and $18.3 million higher than reported at June 30, 1996, and December 31, 1995, respectively. Note 3. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses were $38.9 million and $41.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. General and administrative expenses were $74.5 million and $78.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Note 4. Income Per Share Income per share amounts are based upon the average number of common and common share equivalents outstanding. Common share equivalents included in the computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options which have a dilutive effect. 5 Note 5. Related Companies The Company conducts some of its operations through various joint venture and other partnership forms which are accounted for using the equity method. European Marine Contractors, Limited, (EMC) which is 50% owned by the Company and part of Engineering and Construction Services, specializes in engineering, procurement and construction of marine pipelines. Summarized operating results for 100% of the operations of EMC are as follows:
Three Months Six Months Ended June 30 Ended June 30 ------------------- -------------------- 1996 1995 1996 1995 -------- -------- -------- --------- Millions of dollars Millions of dollars Revenues $ 60.9 $ 116.4 $ 102.4 $ 175.3 ======== ======== ======== ======== Operating income $ 9.7 $ 38.1 $ 29.4 $ 53.8 ======== ======== ======== ======== Net income $ 6.5 $ 25.0 $ 19.7 $ 35.0 ======== ======== ======== ========
Included in the Company's revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are equity in income of related companies of $19.5 million and $26.6 million, respectively. The amounts included in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are $40.6 million and $40.4 million, respectively. In the second quarter of 1996, M-I Drilling Fluids, Inc., one of the Company's joint ventures which is 36% owned and a part of Energy Services, purchased Anchor Drilling Fluids. The Company's share of the purchase price was $41.3 million and is included in cash flows from other investing activities. Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies The Company is involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) in remedial activities to clean up various "Superfund" sites under applicable Federal law which imposes joint and several liability, if the harm is indivisible, on certain persons without regard to fault, the legality of the original disposal, or ownership of the site. Although it is very difficult to quantify the potential impact of compliance with environmental protection laws, management of the Company believes that any liability of the Company with respect to all but one of such sites will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations of the Company. With respect to a site in Jasper County, Missouri (Jasper County Superfund Site), sufficient information has not been developed to permit management to make such a determination and management believes the process of determining the nature and extent of remediation at this site and the total costs thereof will be lengthy. Brown & Root, Inc. (Brown & Root), a subsidiary of the Company, has been named as a PRP with respect to the Jasper County Superfund Site by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Jasper County Superfund Site includes areas of mining activity that occurred from the 1800's through the mid 1950's in the southwestern portion of Missouri. The site contains lead and zinc mine tailings produced from mining activity. Brown & Root is one of nine participating PRPs which have agreed to perform a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS), which is not expected to be completed until the third quarter of 1996. Although the entire Jasper County Superfund Site comprises 237 square miles as listed on the National Priorities List, in the RI/FS scope of work, the EPA has only identified seven areas, or subsites, within this area that need to be studied and then possibly remediated by the PRPs. Additionally, the Administrative Order on Consent for the RI/FS only requires Brown & Root to perform RI/FS work at one of the subsites within the site, the Neck/Alba subsite, which only comprises 3.95 square miles. Brown & Root's share of the cost of such a study is not expected to be material. At the present time Brown & Root cannot determine the extent of its liability, if any, for remediation costs on any reasonably practicable basis. The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various other legal proceedings. Although the ultimate dispositions of such proceedings are not presently determinable, in the opinion of the Company any liability that may ensue will not be material in relation to the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company. Note 7. Acquisitions On June 30, 1996, the Company entered into a definitive agreement providing for the acquisition of Landmark Graphics Corporation (Landmark). Landmark is the leading supplier of integrated exploration and production information systems and professional services for the petroleum industry. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Landmark customers include 90 percent of the world's largest oil and gas companies. 6 Under terms of the agreement, the Company will issue 0.574 of a share of its common stock for each outstanding share of Landmark common stock. The acquisition will result in the issuance of approximately 10.0 million shares of the Company common stock. Approximately 124.8 million shares of the Company's common stock will be outstanding after such issuance. The proposed merger has received unanimous approval from the respective boards of directors of each company, but is subject to the approval of Landmark's stockholders and Hart-Scott-Rodino antitrust clearance. For accounting purposes the merger will be structured as a pooling of interests and, for federal income tax purposes, as a tax-free exchange to Landmark shareholders. The companies anticipate completion of the acquisition during the fall of 1996. At the same time, the Company and Landmark announced that they are pursuing the formation of an alliance with Electronic Data Systems (EDS) to develop a worldwide distributed data management capability that integrates all information associated with the oil field lifecycle. This alliance will be designed to combine the leadership of the Company in oil field energy services, Landmark in geoscience and engineering software systems and services, and EDS in global information services. The intent of the alliance will be to create an information management environment that will automate and integrate petroleum exploration and production from energy company offices throughout their oil fields. This scaleable environment will have the potential to encompass applications, workflows, processes and data from the Company, Landmark and EDS. It will be based on industry standards and open to any software supplier, service company or energy company for widespread adoption. The following supplemental unaudited pro forma combined financial information, is based on adjustments to the historical consolidated statements of income of the Company and Landmark to give effect to the merger using the pooling of interests method of accounting for business combinations. The following information may not necessarily reflect the results of operations of the Company that would have actually resulted had the merger occurred as of the date and for the periods indicated or reflect the future earnings of the Company.

Note 8. Discontinued Operations On January 23, 1996, the Company spun-off its property and casualty insurance subsidiary, Highlands Insurance Group, Inc. (HIGI), in a tax-free distribution to holders of Halliburton Company common stock. Each common shareholder of the Company received one share of common stock of HIGI for every ten shares of Halliburton Company common stock. Approximately 11.4 million common shares of HIGI were issued in conjunction with the spin-off. The following summarizes the results of operations of the discontinued operations:

7 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND OUTLOOK In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company notes that the statements in this 10-Q and elsewhere, which are forward looking and which provide other than historical information, involve risks and uncertainties that may impact the Company's actual results of operations. Future trends for revenues and profitability remain difficult to predict in the industries served by the Company. The Company continues to face many risks and uncertainties including: unsettled political conditions, war, civil unrest, currency controls and governmental actions in countries of operation; new trade restrictions and economic embargoes; environmental laws, including those that require emission performance standards for new and existing facilities; governmental spending for military and logistical support; operations in higher risk countries; technological and structural changes in the industries served by the Company; changes in the price of oil and natural gas; changes in capital spending by customers in the hydrocarbon industry for exploration, development, production, processing, refining and pipeline delivery networks; changes in capital spending by customers in the wood pulp and paper industries for plants and equipment; and changes in world economic conditions related to capital spending by governments for infrastructure. The Company operates in over 100 countries around the world to provide a variety of energy services and engineering and construction services. Operations in some countries may be affected by unsettled political conditions, expropriation or other governmental actions and exchange control and currency problems. Recently enacted United States law provides for sanctions on foreign companies and, in some cases, their affiliates which make certain investments in petroleum resources in Iran or Libya or sell to such countries certain products or technology which enhance the ability of those countries to develop their petroleum resources. This new law may adversely impact the Company's ability to provide services and/or products to some of its foreign customers, including the cessation of operations and trading by certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company with customers in such countries. Although at the present time it is not possible to determine the exact nature of the impact of such law on the Company, it is possible that the Company's ability to realize the value of equipment and other assets, including accounts receivable, associated with such business may become impaired and that such impairment may be material to the results of operations of the Company for some future period. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Second Quarter of 1996 Compared with the Second Quarter of 1995 Revenues Consolidated revenues increased 27% to $1,776.8 million in the second quarter of 1996 compared with $1,397.6 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Approximately 56% of the Company's consolidated revenues were derived from international activities in the second quarter of 1996 compared to 52% in the second quarter of 1995. Consolidated international revenues increased 35% in the second quarter of 1996 over the second quarter of 1995. Consolidated United States revenues increased by 19% in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the second quarter of 1995. Energy Services revenues increased by 15% compared with an 8% increase in drilling activity as measured by the worldwide rotary rig count for the second quarter of 1996 over the same quarter of the prior year. International revenues increased by 12%, reflecting growth in all product and service lines in the Europe/Africa markets. United States revenues increased 18% while the United States rig count increased 12% over the same quarter of the prior year. Engineering and Construction Services revenues increased 37% to $1,055.3 million compared with $768.0 million in the same quarter of the prior year due primarily to higher activity levels in the pulp and paper, energy and chemicals industries as well as a service contract with the US Department of Defense to provide technical and logistical support for military peacekeeping operations in Bosnia. Operating income Consolidated operating income increased 13% to $110.1 million in the second quarter of 1996 compared with $97.0 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Approximately 86% of the Company's consolidated operating income was derived from international activities in the second quarter of 1996 compared to 72% in the second quarter of 1995. 8 Energy Services operating income increased 30% to $92.1 million in the second quarter of 1996 compared with $71.0 million in the same quarter of the prior year. The operating margin for the second quarter of 1996 was 12.8% compared to the prior year operating margin of 11.3%. The increase in operating income in 1996 is primarily related to higher activity levels in North America, from deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and Europe/Africa, primarily related to the North Sea, Nigeria, and the Congo basin. Engineering and Construction Services operating income decreased 21% to $26.4 million compared to $33.3 million in the second quarter of the prior year. Operating margins were 2.5% in the second quarter of 1996 compared to 4.3% in the prior year second quarter. Results for the quarter include $31.8 million income relating to gain sharing revenue on the Brown & Root portion of the cost savings realized on the BP Andrew alliance. The alliance completed the project seven months ahead of the scheduled production of oil and achieved a $125 million savings compared with the targeted cost. This was offset by a $14.2 million reduction in income due to lower activity levels and revenues generated by EMC, its 50%-owned pipeline construction affiliate, and a $16.3 million charge relating to the impairment of Brown & Root's equity in the Dulles Greenway toll road extension project. During the second quarter Brown & Root determined that the Dulles Greenway toll road extension project which began operation in September 1995 will never achieve financial viability for Brown & Root and its equity partners in the venture. This was based upon a new study of traffic projections which concluded that traffic revenue will continue to fall short of original expectations. As a result, the partners have ceased funding the cash shortfall and consequently could lose their entire investment. This resulted in a $16.3 million impairment loss in the second quarter of 1996. Nonoperating items Interest expense decreased to $5.8 million in the second quarter of 1996 compared to $12.3 million in the same quarter of the prior year due primarily to the redemption of the zero coupon convertible subordinated debentures in September 1995, and the redemption of the $42.0 million term loan in December 1995. Interest income decreased in 1996 primarily due to lower levels of invested cash due mainly to the redemption of long-term debt. Foreign currency losses were $3.0 million for the second quarter of 1996 as compared to $1.6 million for the same quarter in 1995. The losses in 1996 were primarily attributable to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar. Net income Net income from continuing operations in the second quarter of 1996 increased 22% to $67.1 million, or 58 cents per share, compared with $54.8 million, or 48 cents per share, in the same quarter of the prior year. First Six Months of 1996 Compared with the First Six Months of 1995 Revenues Consolidated revenues increased 29% to $3,438.2 million in the first six months of 1996 compared with $2,671.5 million in the same period of the prior year. Approximately 54% of the Company's consolidated revenues were derived from international activities in the first six months of 1996 compared to 52% in the same period of 1995. Consolidated international revenues increased 34% in the first six months of 1996 over the same period of 1995. Consolidated United States revenues increased by 23% in the first six months of 1996 compared to the same period of 1995. Energy Services revenues increased by 16% compared with a 5% increase in drilling activity as measured by the worldwide rotary rig count for the first six months of 1996 over the same period of the prior year. International revenues increased by 14%, reflecting growth in the Europe/Africa and Latin America markets. United States revenues increased 18% while the United States rig count increased 6% over the same period of the prior year. Engineering and Construction Services revenues increased 39% to $2,053.4 million compared with $1,472.9 million in the same six month period of the prior year due primarily to higher activity levels in the pulp and paper, energy and chemicals industries as well as a service contract with the US Department of Defense to provide technical and logistical support for military peacekeeping operations in Bosnia. 9 Operating income Consolidated operating income increased 20% to $190.9 million in the first six months of 1996 compared with $158.7 million in the same period of the prior year. Approximately 73% of the Company's consolidated operating income was derived from international activities in the first six months of 1996 compared to 65% in the same period of 1995. Energy Services operating income increased 29% to $159.4 million in the first six months of 1996 compared with $123.3 million in the same period of the prior year. The operating margin for the first six months of 1996 was 11.5% compared to the prior year operating margin of 10.3%. The increase in operating income in 1996 is primarily related to higher activity levels in North America, from deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and Europe/Africa, primarily related to the North Sea and Nigeria. Engineering and Construction Services operating income for the first six months of 1996 was $48.7 million compared to 1995 operating income of $49.0 million. Operating margins were 2.4% in for the first six months of 1996 and 3.3% for the same period in 1995. Results for the six months include $31.8 million income relating to gain sharing revenue on the Brown & Root portion of the cost savings realized on the BP Andrew alliance. The alliance completed the project seven months ahead of the scheduled production of oil and achieved a $125 million savings compared with the targeted cost. This was offset by a $12.2 million reduction in income due to lower activity levels and revenues generated by EMC, its 50%-owned pipeline construction affiliate, and a $16.3 million charge relating to the impairment of Brown & Root's equity in the Dulles Greenway toll road extension project. Nonoperating items Interest expense decreased to $10.7 million in the first six months of 1996 compared to $25.1 million in the same period of the prior year due primarily to the redemption of the zero coupon convertible subordinated debentures in September 1995, and the redemption of the $42.0 million term loan in December 1995. Interest income decreased in 1996 primarily due to lower levels of invested cash due mainly to the redemption of long-term debt. Foreign currency losses were $2.0 million for the first six months of 1996 as compared to a gain of $3.1 million for the same period in 1995. The prior year period benefited from a $7.7 million realized gain in Nigeria from the devaluation of the naira offset by losses primarily related to the Mexican peso. The current year losses are primarily attributable to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar. Net income Net income from continuing operations in the first six months of 1996 increased 27% to $118.6 million, or $1.03 per share, compared with $93.1 million, or 81 cents per share, in the same period of the prior year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company ended the second quarter of 1996 with cash and equivalents of $14.2 million, a decrease of $160.7 million from the end of 1995. Operating activities Cash flows from operating activities were $2.7 million in the first six months of 1996, as compared to $120.3 million in the first six months of 1995. The major operating activity use of cash in 1996 was to fund working capital requirements related to increased revenues including the service contract to provide technical and logistical support for military peacekeeping operations in Bosnia. 10 Investing activities Cash flows used in investing activities were $156.7 million and $114.1 million in the first six months of 1996 and 1995, respectively. Included in 1996 investing activities is $41.3 million related to the Company's share of the purchase price of a subsidiary acquired by the Company's M-I Drilling affiliate. Financing activities Cash flows used in financing activities were $5.6 million in the first six months of 1996 compared to $72.0 million in the first six months of 1995. The Company borrowed $40.0 million in short-term funds consisting of commercial paper in the first six months of 1996 to fund cash requirements. Proceeds from exercises of stock options provided $13.6 million in the first six months of 1996 compared to $0.7 million in the same period of the prior year. The Company has the ability to borrow additional short-term and long-term funds if necessary. LANDMARK GRAPHICS ACQUISITION On June 30, 1996, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for the purpose of acquiring Landmark Graphics Corporation in a stock transaction. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS The Company completed its exit from the insurance industry segment on January 23, 1996, with distribution of the Company's property and casualty insurance subsidiary, Highlands Insurance Group, Inc., to its shareholders in a tax-free spin-off. The operations of the Insurance Services Group have been classified as discontinued operations. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS The Company is involved as a potentially responsible party in remedial activities to clean up various "Superfund" sites under applicable Federal law which imposes joint and several liability, if the harm is indivisible, on certain persons without regard to fault, the legality of the original disposal, or ownership of the site. Although it is very difficult to quantify the potential impact of compliance with environmental protection laws, management of the Company believes that any liability of the Company with respect to all but one of such sites will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations of the Company. See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on the one site. 11 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 4.
