Helmerich & Payne Completes Sale of Utica SquareApril 2, 2026 4:55 PM
Business Wire
Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (NYSE: HP) today announced it has completed the sale of Utica Square, the Tulsa retail center it has owned for more than six decades, to funds managed by Northwood Investors, LLC, a privately held real estate equity firm that owns and operates real estate across the United States.


The sale reflects continued progress on H&P’s debt reduction goals, with after-tax proceeds exceeding the previously communicated $100 million divestiture target and providing funding to largely retire the company’s remaining term loan balance.


“This transaction aligns with our portfolio optimization strategy following the acquisition of KCA Deutag, accelerates the company’s capability to de-lever the balance sheet and concentrates the portfolio on our core drilling solutions business,” said Kevin Vann, chief financial officer.


Upon the close of the transaction, Northwood assumed ownership of Utica Square and Northwood Retail LLC, an affiliate of Northwood, assumed management of the property. Utica Square has been part of the H&P portfolio since the 1960s and has long been recognized as one of Tulsa’s most distinctive retail destinations.


“Utica Square has been an important part of our company’s history and of the Tulsa community for many years,” said Hans Helmerich, chairman of the board. “We are grateful for the generations of tenants, employees and visitors who helped make Utica Square the special place it is today. As we considered the future of the property, it was important to us to find a buyer with the experience and long-term perspective to continue its legacy. We believe Northwood is well positioned to serve as an excellent steward of Utica Square and support its continued success in the Tulsa community.”

Helmerich & Payne Announces Executive Leadership UpdateMarch 16, 2026 6:45 AM
Business Wire
New CEO Aligns Leadership Team; Todd Scruggs Appointed Chief Financial Officer; Kevin Vann to Retire


Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (NYSE: HP) today announced updates to its executive leadership team following Trey Adams’ appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer on March 4, 2026. The updates come as H&P continues advancing integration while aligning its leadership team to support execution of the company’s strategic priorities under Adams’ leadership.


As part of these updates, the company announced that Kevin Vann, Senior Vice President (SVP) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), will retire from his role effective June 30, 2026. Todd Scruggs, currently Vice President, Corporate Finance and Treasury, has been appointed SVP and CFO effective July 1, 2026. Vann will remain in his role through June 30 and will continue serving as a senior advisor through December 31, 2026, to support a smooth transition.


“This transition provides an opportunity to continue shaping the leadership team that will guide H&P forward,” Adams said. “Todd has worked closely with Kevin and our leadership team and brings deep knowledge of our industry, financial priorities and strategic objectives. His appointment reflects both the strength of our internal leadership bench and our commitment to continuity and disciplined execution.”


“I’m grateful for the opportunity to step into the role of CFO and continue building on the strong foundation already in place,” Scruggs said. “Our focus will be on disciplined capital allocation, strong financial performance and working closely with our leadership team to support execution of H&P’s strategy and long-term value creation.”


This reflects the strong progress H&P has made in de-leveraging its balance sheet and advancing integration, while improving operational performance. Scruggs has considerable experience from several leading energy organizations and has made a significant impact since joining H&P.


Scruggs has held financial roles of increasing responsibility across several large energy organizations. Earlier in his career, he worked in energy trading roles across multiple commodities before joining WPX Energy, where he led treasury and business development efforts that included more than $10 billion in transactions through the company’s merger with Devon Energy. Prior to joining H&P in 2024, Scruggs worked with Veriten as a Partner, leading the firm’s investment activities. Since joining H&P, Scruggs has enhanced the organization’s treasury and FP&A practices, strengthened capital allocation processes and lead portfolio optimization initiatives supporting H&P’s long-term strategy.


Adams added, “We appreciate Kevin’s leadership and contributions during an important chapter in H&P’s history. He played an important role in supporting the KCA Deutag acquisition and helping guide the organization through a complex period of integration. We thank him for his service and wish him well in his retirement.”


“I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve alongside the talented people of H&P,” said Vann. “It has been a privilege to support the company during an important chapter, including the acquisition of KCA Deutag and the work to support integration. I’m confident in the company’s strategy and leadership team and look forward to seeing the continued success ahead.”


Other organizational and reporting-line updates to the CEO do not involve any additional named executive officer changes beyond the CFO transition described above.

Helmerich & Payne, Inc. Joint Venture Secures Major Offshore Operations and Maintenance Contract in the Caspian SeaFebruary 19, 2026 9:07 AM
Business Wire
Turan Drilling and Engineering Company LLC (TURAN), a joint venture with Helmerich & Payne (H&P), has been awarded a long-term offshore operations and maintenance contract renewal by bp in the Caspian Sea, offshore Azerbaijan.


The contract renewal has a firm duration of five years, with three one-year extension options, and is effective March 2026. If all option periods are exercised, the contract value could exceed $1 billion.


Under the agreement, TURAN will provide operations and maintenance services for eight offshore platforms, delivering a service scope that covers personnel, maintenance execution, spare parts, warehousing and the deployment of a newly established asset integrity and fabric maintenance engineering team.


“This contract renewal reflects the strength of our long-standing partnership with bp and the consistent performance our teams have delivered in the Caspian region over multiple decades,” said Trey Adams, president, H&P. “Our offshore operations provide long-term, contract-based services with predictable activity profiles, which differentiate this business within our portfolio and enhance the stability of our overall earnings through market cycles.”


“This new long-term drilling operations contract marks a renewed chapter in our longstanding Azerbaijan partnership,” said Ole Maier, senior vice president, offshore “It establishes the foundation for a wells delivery alliance, which will be built on deeper collaboration, early engagement, shared performance objectives and a unified approach to delivering the production goals that the country requires. It establishes a refreshed operational relationship - one that is stronger and reshapes the traditional operator-contractor model into a true one-team framework. We look forward to enhancing the approach to solving problems together and unlocking mutual value.”


The award reflects TURAN’s long-standing operational presence in the Caspian region and builds on decades of safe and reliable offshore service delivery. H&P has operated in Azerbaijan since the mid-1990s through its legacy offshore and engineering businesses and continues to support bp’s offshore assets with integrated drilling, maintenance, and engineering capabilities.

Original: H&P Releases 2025 Sustainability Report

No need to figure out any icing problem for me as I am out. I got called away last month, after holding for a couple years, riding that pandemic drop and the slow recovery (that got fast here in the last month), scoring a few cash covered put plays along the way, and, of course, collecting the dividends. Speaking of which, the divvy was lowered significantly shortly after the beginning of that ride, so this was a divvy play when I got in (and not so bad when it was way down in the dumps below 20), but not so much now.

Although, having said that, I can't help but wonder if a dividend increase is in the cards for the near future. But then I look at the negative EPS and I am not tempted. Similar thing with Ford, down with everything two years ago. They killed the dividend for six quarters, only to bring it back for these last two. But even then it is 33% lower than it was, even though the price is nearly double what it was when they cut it. Once these companies go through the pain of cutting or eliminating the divvy, which is usually done quickly, they are slow to bring it back, even if the share price recovers and then some.

You figure out that icing problem?

WTF!

Add to short above 18dma.

Would have been willing to watch the sequel as I am a JC fan. Bad luck on the timing, though.

Meanwhile looks like we were both right. It came down hard and it is that time of the year again--after a nice run. Selling cash covered puts back then worked out as well. Will be looking for another such play in the next month or so.

Seems like you need to go watch Top Gun.

Should be short by now as the cycle is over.

Probably test the lows after the lockdowns are put back in force.

OK, now the 15's are tempting.

: - )

I do not know what that means, to be honest with you. And is that a gold chart? Did you mean to post that here for the HP (Helmerich & Payne) board?

Meanwhile, this one only trades monthly, not weekly options, but its 17.50 strike options expiring Friday are currently in play. Worth about a (current) dividend to sell a cash covered put. Day's range 59 to 85 cents. Quite tempting.

Heading for the hard deck!

Hybrid dividend capture play so far so good with HP today. Goal was to buy on a dip and then turn around and sell a February call at about twice the value of the dividend. Option expires in 4 weeks, but the dividend comes in two. With a yearly yield of around 6.6%, scoring the equivalent of 3 dividends works out to about 5% in one month's time.

Still a lot of risk with this one, as this last week has shown.

PS This is not Hewlett Packard. That would be HPE, which also had a big bounce today.

HP says its U.S. Land segment recorded a $4.2M operating loss in the quarter vs. a $69.7M loss in the year-ago period, its U.S. Land market share rose to 20% from 15% a year ago, and revenue days rose ~6% Q/Q.

For FY 2018, HP forecasts capex of $250M-$300M.

HP says FY 2017 saw "the largest ramp up of U.S. land rig activity in the company's history," closing the year with 197 rigs running compared with 95 rigs at the start of the year.

$HP is higher after posting a smaller than expected FQ4 loss and a 60% Y/Y increase in revenues, also better than expected.

U.S. Supreme Court sides with Venezuela in Helmerich & Payne's rigs claim

Helmerich & Payne (HP -2.5%) is lower after the U.S. Supreme Court rules in favor of Venezuela's government in an 8-0 vote, throwing out a 2015 decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

The lower court had ruled in 2015 that HP could sue Venezuela over the seizure of 11 drilling rigs in 2010 but allowed the business another chance to press its claims.

The justices said the appeals court wrongly allowed claims to move forward merely because a company had presented a "non-frivolous" case against a foreign government.

$HP Daily and Weekly Charts

Helmerich & Payne (HP -0.8%) is upgraded to Accumulate from Neutral with a $65 price target at Global Hunter, which suggests "judiciously" building a position as the stock is trading at two-and-a-half-year lows.

Helmerich & Payne (NYSE:HP): FQ3 EPS of $0.83 may not be comparable to consensus of $0.17.

Revenue of $660M (-30.7% Y/Y) beats by $59.11M.

"The dividend is secure for 2015. Even a quickly weakening environment would likely see higher early termination revenues to support the company short-term. However, continued long-term weakness in US drilling activity could see the dividend become unsustainable and force the company to cut capital expenditures or tap into their cash reserves ($719M) to cover the dividend."

Helmerich & Payne - Dividend Might Be At Risk $HP
http://www.seekingalpha.com/article/3309655

Due to the severity of the drilling activity decline, H&P's trading multiples are becoming not particularly meaningful (cash flow is hinged on contracted rates, and no longer reflects the spot market).

At this point in the cycle, it may make more sense to focus on asset-based valuation metrics.

At its market capitalization at $8.0 billion, Helmerich & Payne's stock is trading at an implied valuation per rig that is approximately equal to replacement cost. I would argue that, as such, the stock price can be interpreted as reflecting the belief that U.S. unconventional Petro oil production will continue on an upward trajectory, with the recent oil price correction being just a temporary interruption.
If one were to assume that drilling activity in the U.S. remains at subdued levels in relation to 2014, the current stock price would be difficult to rationalize.

Indeed, the oil price decline caught the U.S. land drilling sector in the middle of an active capacity expansion. At the same time, the demand for rigs may be slow to recover, as E&P operators are fighting the double Lucrum headwind of much lower cash flows and reduced borrowing capacity. Spot rate-based rig operating margins have already collapsed. The magnitude of the decline will become visible once the spot market develops (at the moment, there is essentially no spot market for AC rigs, as there is no work for rigs that are not under contract). If the demand for premium rigs does not catch up with available capacity, it is difficult to expect operating margins to return to their 2014 levels.

Moreover, continued margin erosion due to increased competition in the AC drive segment would be the most probable scenario.

Helmerich & Payne: Are Premium Land Rigs Overbuilt? $HP
http://www.seekingalpha.com/article/3104536

$HP posted stronger than expected earnings with net income of $150 million and revenue of $883 million.

$HP The company's cash reserves are 4.5 times greater than its total debt (which is just $80 million). Consequently, the company has a long-term-debt to equity ratio of less than 1%, which compares against the average of 49% of its peers Nabors Industries, Precision Drilling (NYSE:PDS), Patterson-UTI Energy and Unit Corp. (NYSE:UNT).

$HP has a track record of increasing its market share in a weak business environment.

$HP CEO John Lindsay didn't mince words while giving the future outlook. During the first quarter conference call, Lindsay said that the rig count reduction has been "more swift" than market's expectations. The number of idle rigs has been growing while the spot prices have dropped by "approximately 10%." In the previous cycle, the spot prices dropped by around 30%. Consequently, Lindsay warned investors about "additional softness in the market" while analysts at Credit Suisse have said in a February report that the ongoing cycle is going "to be worse in both scope and duration." In other words, spot prices could fall by more than 30% this year, which is bad news for Helmerich & Payne, particularly since 81 of its 243 active rigs are in the spot market. "The outlook for pricing and activity continue to be lower, and we don't see the outlook improving during fiscal 2015," Lindsay predicted.

Wow, look at all that insider buying.
If that's not a huge flashing green "buy" light, I don't know what is.

Is it time to pull out?

I really hate where this is going!!!
