The offshore drilling market dynamics present a complex picture. The decision to stack the West Phoenix rig signals oversupply concerns in certain regions. This defensive move, while protecting dayrates, indicates market softness. The company's strategy to prioritize pricing discipline over utilization is prudent but highlights industry challenges.
The Brazil market remains a bright spot, with two rigs (West Auriga and West Polaris) undergoing customer acceptance. However, the commentary about "near-term imbalance between available rigs and opportunities" suggests potential pricing pressure in 2024-2025. The focus on premium floaters positions Seadrill well for an eventual market recovery, but near-term headwinds are evident.

“We will continue to be disciplined stewards of shareholder capital, remaining focused on maximizing cash flow per rig as we seek to contract uncommitted capacity in 2025 and into 2026. Despite the near-term imbalance between available rigs and opportunities, we remain resolute in our belief in the strength and durability of the offshore drilling industry and Seadrill’s position within it. Operating a concentrated fleet of premium floaters supported by a strong balance sheet positions us well to withstand market movements and generate improving returns through the cycle.”

Appendix I - Reconciliation of Operating Profit to Adjusted EBITDA (Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA represents operating profit before depreciation, amortization and similar non-cash charges. Additionally, in any given period, the Company may have significant, unusual or non-recurring items which may be excluded from Adjusted EBITDA for that period. When applicable, these items are fully disclosed and incorporated into the reconciliation provided below. Adjusted EBITDA Margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Total operating revenues. Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables, represents Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Reimbursable revenues and Reimbursable expenses. Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables represents Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables as a percentage of Total operating revenues excluding Reimbursable revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables and Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that the aforementioned non-GAAP financial measures assist investors by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of interest, other financial items, taxes and depreciation and amortization, which are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which may significantly affect operating profit between periods.
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables and Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit or any other indicator of Seadrill Limited’s performance calculated in accordance with US GAAP.
The tables below reconcile operating profit to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Reimbursables and Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding Reimbursables.
