Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies As of June 30, 2025, we maintained letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $42.1 million primarily for the benefit of various insurance companies as collateral for retrospective premiums and retained losses that could become payable under the terms of the underlying insurance contracts and compliance with contractual obligations. These letters of credit expire annually at various times during the year and are typically renewed. As of June 30, 2025, no amounts had been drawn under the letters of credit. As of June 30, 2025, we had $37.0 million in surety bond exposure issued as financial assurance on an insurance agreement. As of June 30, 2025, we had commitments to purchase major equipment totaling approximately $94.8 million. Our completion services segment has entered into agreements to purchase minimum quantities of proppants from certain vendors. As of June 30, 2025, the remaining minimum obligation under these agreements was approximately $27.1 million, of which approximately $9.2 million, $13.1 million, and $4.8 million relate to the remainder of 2025, 2026, and 2027, respectively. Certain subsidiaries we acquired in the Ulterra acquisition are defendants in a claim brought by a subsidiary of NOV Inc. alleging breach of a license agreement related to certain patents. Such subsidiaries have asserted defenses to the claim and are defending vigorously against this claim. On February 6, 2023, Grant Prideco, Inc., ReedHycalog UK, Ltd. ReedHycalog, LP, National Oilwell Varco, LP (“NOV”) sued Ulterra Drilling Technologies, LP (“Ulterra”) and several other companies in Texas state court. NOV seeks a declaration that United States Patent No. 8,721,752 (the “’752 Patent”) is a “Licensed RH Patent” per the terms of a license agreement between Ulterra and NOV. NOV also alleges a breach of contract based on the license agreement between NOV and Ulterra and seeks allegedly owed royalties since October 22, 2021. NOV also seeks attorney’s fees. On February 27, 2023, Ulterra filed a plea to the jurisdiction, and subject thereto, an answer, affirmative defenses and counterclaims. Ulterra’s counterclaims include: (i) declaratory judgments of non-infringement of U.S. Pat. No. 7,568,534 and the ’752 patent; (ii) a declaratory judgment of no royalties after Oct. 22, 2021; (iii) a declaratory judgment that certain other identified patents are expired and therefore not infringed after Oct. 22, 2021; and (iv) a declaratory judgment of no breach of contract. On the same day, Ulterra filed a notice of removal in federal court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (SDTX 4:23-cv-00730), as well as a corresponding notice in Texas state court. NOV moved to dismiss and remand the case back to state court. On February 17, 2024, the Court denied NOV’s motion. On March 19, 2024, Ulterra moved for judgment on the pleadings regarding its declaratory judgment that certain other identified patents are expired and therefore not infringed after October 22, 2021. On February 13, 2025, the motion was granted in part and denied in part. Discovery is closed and dispositive motions are fully briefed. Trial is currently scheduled for October 27, 2025. An unfavorable judgment or resolution of this claim not covered by indemnity could have a material impact on our financial results. Additionally, we are party to various other legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business. We do not believe that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.
