Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ​ Interim Financial Information ​ The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Nabors have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to interim reporting. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”), certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. Therefore, these financial statements should be read together with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“2024 Annual Report”). In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2025 and the results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and changes in equity for the periods presented herein. Interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2025 may not be indicative of results that will be realized for the full year ending December 31, 2025. ​ Principles of Consolidation ​ Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nabors, as well as all majority-owned and non-majority owned subsidiaries consolidated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. ​ In addition to the consolidation of our majority owned subsidiaries, we also consolidate variable interest entities (“VIE”) when we are determined to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE. Determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based on whether an entity has (a) the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Our determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE considers all relationships between us and the VIE. Our joint venture, SANAD, which is equally owned by Saudi Aramco and Nabors, has been consolidated. As we have the power to direct activities that most significantly impact SANAD’s economic performance, including operations, maintenance and certain sourcing and procurement, we have determined Nabors to be the primary beneficiary. See Note 4—Joint Ventures. Also, we are the co-sponsor of a special purpose acquisition company (the “SPAC”) and have determined it is a VIE. Nabors is the primary beneficiary of the SPAC as we have the power to direct activities, the right to receive benefits and the obligation to absorb losses. Therefore, the SPAC has been consolidated. See Note 14—Special Purpose Acquisition Company. ​ On March 11, 2025, we completed our acquisition (the “Parker acquisition”) of Parker Drilling Company (“Parker”) resulting in Parker becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Nabors. Parker provides drilling services across global energy markets. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of Parker from March 12, 2025 to June 30, 2025. See Note 3—Parker Acquisition for additional details on the acquisition and merger. ​ Inventory ​ Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out or weighted-average cost methods and includes the cost of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead. Inventory included the following: ​

​ ​ Recent accounting pronouncements ​ Adopted ​ In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), which enhances prior reportable segment disclosure requirements in part by requiring entities to disclose significant expenses related to their reportable segments that are regularly provided to the chief operation decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items to reconcile to segment profit or loss. The guidance also requires disclosure of the CODM’s position for each segment and detail of how the CODM uses financial reporting to access their segment’s performance. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. We adopted this ASU as required for the year ended December 31, 2024. The adoption requires us to provide additional disclosures related to our segments, but otherwise it does not materially impact our financial statements. ​ Not Yet Adopted ​ In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures, to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This provides qualitative and quantitative updates to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures, including consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and disaggregation by jurisdiction of income taxes paid. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on our financial statements and related disclosures. ​ In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendments in this update require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization and depreciation, depletion and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas producing activities. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. The adoption of ASU 2024-03 requires us to provide additional disclosures but will otherwise not materially impact our financial statements. ​ We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. We assessed ASUs not listed above and determined that they either were not applicable or do not have a material impact on our financial statements.
