- Friday, August 10, 2012, 5:17 PM Weatherford (WFT) files to delay its 10-Q, citing material weakness in the company's internal controls. Last month, WFT said errors in its Q1 and Q2 results had rendered those financial statements unreliable. Shares -1.5% AH. Comment! [Energy]
- Thursday, July 26, 2012, 10:40 AM Weatherford (WFT -2.1%) adds to yesterday's losses as shares are downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Goldman, which says while Q2 results were sound operationally, the lack of resolution on internal tax control issues will likely remain an overhang on the stock until they are resolved. UBS also cuts shares to Neutral. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas, On the Move]
- Wednesday, July 25, 2012, 4:48 PM Analysts are growing impatient with Weatherford's (WFT) continuing income tax accounting problems; shares finished -8.8% and ranked among the energy sector's biggest losers. After identifying “additional errors” in reviewing Q1 and Q2 results, WFT won’t issue restated financial statements for 2011 and Q1 2012 or file statements for Q2 until a further review is completed. 1 Comment [Energy]

[On the Move] - Tuesday, July 24, 2012, 5:55 PM Weatherford (WFT) reports preliminary Q2 results: EBIT of $205M, or $276M after excluding $71M in pre-tax losses; revenues were $3.78B vs. $3.64B expected, +23.8% Y/Y and the highest quarterly total in the company's history. Sees Q3 EPS of $0.30-$0.33 vs. $0.32 consensus. WFT -1.4% AH. Comment! [Earnings, Energy]
- Thursday, June 28, 2012, 10:51 AM “Buy quality when there’s blood in the streets,” Bernstein says in upgrading Halliburton (HAL +0.7%) to Outperform, adding the deepwater service market should "double from 2011-14 while gas drilling is surging in the Middle East and Asia." The firm also cuts Weatherford (WFT -1.2%) to Market Perform, citing high debt and a federal investigation under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. 2 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, June 19, 2012, 12:15 PM Weatherford (WFT +2.9%) wins an $843M crucial oil field facilities contract from a group led by Eni (E) that will boost oil production from Iraq's Zubair oil field to 554K bbl/day from the current 254K bbl/day, a government spokesman says. Schlumberger (SLB) and an Italian JV had competed for the contract to build the facilities in Basra in southern Iraq. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, June 6, 2012, 2:06 PM Oil service stocks (OIH +1.7%) hold up well despite Halliburton's (HAL -2.4%) operational update, which said the price of guar gum "has inflated more rapidly than previously expected due to concerns over the potential for shortages for the commodity later in 2012." It seems unlikely HAL would be the only firm in the sector with tight supplies, Jon Ogg notes. BHI -0.9% but SLB +2.6%, WFT +0.7%. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, June 6, 2012, 1:33 PM More on Halliburton (HAL -0.3%): Lowers its forecast for North America margins in its operational update, citing higher costs for guar gum as a result of its expansion of oil and liquids-related activity in North America. Guar gum is an agricultural commodity used as a blending additive to its fluids utilized in hydraulic fracturing. Margins are expected to be impacted by an additional 300 basis points more than previous guidance of 200-250 basis points. 6 Comments [Energy, On the Move, Breaking News]
- Thursday, May 31, 2012, 10:43 AM Major oil services stocks (OIH -3.1%) are hammered in early trading, capping a brutal May as crude oil prices declined and equities reeled in the face of the European debt crisis and slowing global growth. SLB -3.8%, WFT -4.5%, HAL -2.9%, BHI -2.5%, RIG -2.2%. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 16, 2012, 2:56 PM National Oilwell Varco (NOV -1.4%) is upgraded to Buy from Hold with an $80 target price at Standpoint Research, which believes shares closely correlate to crude oil prices over the long term and are poised to move up when oil prices rise in 2013-14. The firm considers NOV one of the best performing names in the equipment and services sector, ahead of SLB, WFT and MDR. 4 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, May 16, 2012, 9:05 AM JPMorgan upgrades Weatherford (WFT +2.8%) to "overweight" from "neutral," citing the oilfield services company strong presence in artificial lift services, for which there is high demand. However, JPM cuts Baker Hughes (BHI -0.7%) to "neutral" from "overweight" and its price target to $50 from $53 on execution fears about the firm's revamp. 1 Comment [Energy]
- Tuesday, April 24, 2012, 12:23 PM Weatherford (WFT +3.9%) missed on its Q1 earnings and revenues, and lowered Q2 estimates, but shares surge after CEO Bernard Duroc-Danner says he expects growth across the board for 2012. WFT "remain(s) constructive on North America, both top line and margin," and expects international revenue to rise 20% and operating income to double in H2. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 24, 2012, 6:39 AM Weatherford International (WFT): Q1 EPS of $0.25 misses by $0.04. Revenue of $3.6B (+26% Y/Y). (PR) 1 Comment [Earnings]
