NATURE OF OPERATIONS	NOTE 1 NATURE OF OPERATIONS H&P through its operating subsidiaries provides performance-driven drilling solutions and technologies that are intended to make hydrocarbon recovery safer and more economical for oil and gas exploration and production companies. Our drilling services operations are organized into the following reportable operating business segments: North America Solutions, International Solutions and Offshore Gulf of Mexico. Our real estate operations and our wholly-owned captive insurance companies are included in "Other." Refer to Note 17—Business Segments and Geographic Information for further details on our reportable segments. Our North America Solutions operations are primarily located in Texas, but also traditionally operate in other states, depending on demand. Such states include: Colorado, Louisiana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Utah, West Virginia, and Wyoming. Our International Solutions operations have rigs and/or services primarily located in five international locations: Argentina, Australia, Bahrain, Colombia and the U.A.E. Additionally, we commenced operations in Saudi Arabia in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Our Offshore Gulf of Mexico operations are conducted in Louisiana and in U.S. federal waters in the Gulf of Mexico. We also own and operate a limited number of commercial real estate properties located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Our real estate investments include a shopping center and undeveloped real estate. Pending KCA Deutag Acquisition On July 25, 2024, H&P and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries entered into the Purchase Agreement to acquire KCA Deutag for total cash consideration of approximately $2.0 billion, which consists of the $0.9 billion unadjusted share purchase price and $1.1 billion to contemporaneously repay or redeem certain of KCA Deutag's existing debt upon consummation of the Acquisition. Total consideration is subject to adjustment as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The transaction is expected to close prior to calendar 2024 year end, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. KCA Deutag is a diverse global drilling company. The company has a significant land drilling presence in the Middle East, which represents approximately two-thirds of the company’s calendar year 2023 Operating EBITDA, with additional operations in South America, Europe and Africa. In addition to its land operations, KCA Deutag has asset-light offshore management contract operations in the North Sea, Angola, Azerbaijan and Canada, with super major customers and long-term earnings visibility through a robust backlog. KCA Deutag’s Kenera segment comprises manufacturing and engineering businesses, including Bentec, with three facilities serving the energy industry, representing a longer-term growth opportunity.
