Basis of Presentation | 1.Basis of Presentation Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” in these Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements refers to Helmerich & Payne, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pertaining to interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all information or footnote disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other current filings with the Commission. In the opinion of management all adjustments, consisting of those of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the results of the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods presented may not necessarily be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. As more fully described in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, our contract drilling revenues are comprised of daywork drilling contracts for which the related revenues and expenses are recognized as services are performed. For contracts that are terminated by customers prior to the expirations of their fixed terms, contractual provisions customarily require early termination amounts to be paid to us. Revenues from early terminated contracts are recognized when all contractual requirements have been met. During the three months ended December 31, 2016, early termination revenue was approximately $13.5 million. We had $28.9 million of early termination revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Depreciation in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations includes abandonments of $0.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. The functional currency for all our foreign operations is the U.S. dollar. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates and monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the period. Income statement accounts are translated at average rates for the period presented. Foreign currency gains and losses from remeasurement of foreign currency financial statements and foreign currency translations into U.S. dollars are included in direct operating costs. Included in direct operating costs is an aggregate foreign currency loss of $1.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016. For the three months ended December 31, 2015, we had aggregate foreign currency losses of $8.5 million, primarily due to the sharp devaluation of the Argentine peso in December 2015.
