**<u>Nabors Announces Fourth Quarter 2022 Results</u>**

HAMILTON, Bermuda, February 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Nabors Industries Ltd. ("Nabors" or the "Company") (NYSE: NBR) today reported fourth quarter 2022 operating revenues of $760 million, an increase of approximately 10%, compared to operating revenues of $694 million in the third quarter of 2022. The net loss attributable to Nabors shareholders for the quarter was $69 million, or $7.87 per share. This compares to a loss of $14 million, or $1.80 per share, in the third quarter. The fourth quarter results included a non-cash charge of $36 million, or $3.98 per share, related to mark-to-market treatment of Nabors' warrants. The third quarter results included a non-cash gain for the warrants of $34 million, or $3.74 per share. Excluding the impact of the Nabors warrants on each quarter's results, the net loss improved sequentially by $15 million. Fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA was $230 million, a 21% increase compared to $191 million in the previous quarter.

Anthony G. Petrello, Nabors Chairman, CEO and President, commented, "Our fourth quarter performance and financial results were impressive. Once again, all segments contributed to strong sequential growth. Total adjusted EBITDA was the highest quarterly level since 2015. The U.S. Drilling segment drove most of our growth, highlighted by unprecedented daily margins in the Lower 48 market. Daily margin and adjusted EBITDA also improved in our International segment. In Drilling Solutions, growth accelerated with the annual adjusted EBITDA run rate surpassing $120 million, as gross margin set another record at nearly 53%. Rig Technologies had its best quarter in seven years.

"In the Lower 48, we successfully repriced the majority of our rigs during the quarter. As a result, daily rig revenue increased by more than $3,500. Almost all of that increase flowed through to daily gross margin, which improved by nearly $3,500, to $14,600, an all-time high. Notwithstanding this growth, leading edge daily revenue in this market remains substantially higher than our fourth quarter average.

"In our International segment, SANAD deployed its second newbuild rig, of the initial five awards, late in the quarter. The remaining three units are expected to commence operations by the third quarter. In addition, SANAD has been awarded five more newbuild rigs, bringing the total awarded to date to 10. Deployment of this second tranche of five is expected to begin around the end of 2023 at the earliest. We also reactivated an existing rig in Saudi Arabia, and in Papua New Guinea our advanced rig contributed a full quarter at its operating rate.

"Revenue in our Drilling Solutions segment accelerated in the fourth quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased by 18% sequentially, driven by growth across most product lines. NDS revenue on our U.S. rigs, third-party U.S. rigs, and International rigs all saw double-digit growth in the quarter.

"In our Rig Technologies segment, all product lines contributed to the increase in segment EBITDA. The most significant increases were in aftermarket parts, and rentals.

"Demonstrating our commitment and progress supporting the energy transition, Nabors was awarded the Energy Transition Award – Upstream at the 24<sup>th</sup> Annual Platts Global Energy Awards in December. Our strategy has taken shape since we announced it a year ago. We have deployed multiple energy transition solutions on our rigs, as well as on third party units. Also, we are developing advanced technologies focused on responsible hydrocarbon production, hydrogen, and carbon."

<u>Segment Results</u>

The U.S. Drilling segment reported $144.1 million in adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2022, a 26% increase from the prior quarter. Nabors' average Lower 48 rig count, at 95, increased by three rigs. Daily adjusted gross margin in the Lower 48 market averaged $14,600, 31% higher than the prior quarter.

International Drilling adjusted EBITDA totaled $88.8 million, a 3% increase from the prior quarter. Improved performance across Latin America and in Saudi Arabia drove the growth. The International rig count averaged 75.7, up one rig sequentially. Daily adjusted gross margin for the fourth quarter averaged $14,902, up $313 from the prior quarter.

Drilling Solutions adjusted EBITDA increased sequentially by 18% to $30.3 million. Growth was strong across most product and service categories, notably Managed Pressure Drilling, Casing Running, and Performance Tools.

In Rig Technologies, adjusted EBITDA increased by 57% to $7.6 million in the fourth quarter. Revenue increased by 24% sequentially, to $62.8 million, mainly due to higher aftermarket sales, reflecting increased rig and equipment utilization across the industry.

<u>Adjusted Free Cash Flow</u>

Adjusted free cash flow totaled $101 million in the fourth quarter, primarily driven by higher financial results across all segments, strong collections, and disciplined capital spending. For the full year, adjusted free cash flow was $154 million. Capital expenditures for the fourth quarter totaled $103 million, including $16 million supporting the SANAD newbuilds. Full-year capital expenditures totaled $382 million, of which $91 million was for SANAD newbuilds.

At the end of the fourth quarter, net debt was $2.085 billion, a $75 million reduction compared to the third quarter.

William Restrepo, Nabors CFO, stated, "We benefitted from strong financial performance in the fourth quarter across all of our segments. U.S. Drilling delivered continued increases in pricing, as well as higher rig count. At the same time our International business continued its steady upward progression with more growth expected over the coming quarters, as activity across the globe expands from its current levels and dayrates have started to increase. Our low-capital-intensity businesses grew briskly during the quarter with both Drilling Solutions and Rig Technologies exceeding their quarterly targets.

"In the Lower 48, dayrate increases were significant as we repriced nearly two-thirds of the fleet. Our revenue per day average for the fleet reached $32,000. There's still plenty of room to run as we reprice our fleet to the current leading edge dayrates.

"We intend to capitalize on this environment to further improve our capital structure and reduce leverage. We are already seeing the impact our cash flow generation and debt reduction has had on the cost of our debt, with interest rate spreads compressing significantly over the last quarter. For 2023, we estimate we will generate adjusted free cash flow exceeding $400 million. We intend to allocate our cash flow primarily to debt reduction and we expect to close the year with net debt of approximately $1.7 billion."

<u>Outlook</u>

Nabors expects the following metrics for the first quarter 2023:

U.S. Drilling

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o An
 increase in average Lower 48 rig count of one rig vs. the fourth quarter average

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Lower
 48 adjusted gross margin per day of approximately $16,100 - $16,300

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o A
 $2 to $3 million decrease in adjusted EBITDA for Alaska and U.S. Offshore combined, mainly
 due to two Alaska rigs going on standby rate

International

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Rig
 count up approximately one to two rigs vs. the fourth quarter average

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Adjusted
 gross margin per day approximately in line with the fourth quarter

Drilling Solutions

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Adjusted
 EBITDA up by approximately 6% above the fourth quarter level

Rig Technologies

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Adjusted
 EBITDA approximately in line with the fourth quarter

Capital Expenditures

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Capital
 expenditures of $150 million, of which approximately $45 million supports SANAD newbuilds

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Capital
 expenditures for the full year 2023 of $490 million, including $180 million for
 SANAD and an incremental $20 million for sustaining capex on the higher rig count

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Adjusted
 free cash flow for the full year 2023 to exceed $400 million

Mr. Petrello concluded, "Our fourth quarter results capped a year of significant achievement. We reached noteworthy milestones across the company. Looking into 2023, the momentum from higher dayrates, newbuild deployments in Saudi Arabia, greater penetration of our advanced performance solutions, the start of expanding activity in international markets, and broader recognition of our decarbonization initiatives sets us up for a strong 2023."

Forward-looking Statements

The information included in this press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, as disclosed by Nabors from time to time in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result of these factors, Nabors' actual results may differ materially from those indicated or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release reflect management's estimates and beliefs as of the date of this press release. Nabors does not undertake to update these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Disclaimer

This press release presents certain "non-GAAP" financial measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Adjusted operating income (loss) represents income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, interest expense, investment income (loss), and other, net. Adjusted EBITDA is computed similarly, but also excludes depreciation and amortization expenses. In addition, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss) exclude certain cash expenses that the Company is obligated to make. Net debt is calculated as total debt minus the sum of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Adjusted free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sales of assets. Management believes that adjusted free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of the company's ability to generate cash flow, after reinvesting in the company for future growth, that could be available for paying down debt or other financing cash flows, such as dividends to shareholders. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure is useful information to investors when comparing our cash flows with the cash flows of other companies.

Each of these non-GAAP measures has limitations and therefore should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the amounts reported in accordance with GAAP. However, management evaluates the performance of its operating segments and the consolidated Company based on several criteria, including Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income (loss), net debt, and adjusted free cash flow, because it believes that these financial measures accurately reflect the Company's ongoing profitability and performance. Securities analysts and investors also use these measures as some of the metrics on which they analyze the Company's performance. Other companies in this industry may compute these measures differently. Reconciliations of consolidated adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss) to income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, net debt to total debt, and adjusted free cash flow to net cash provided by operations, which are their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures, are included in the tables at the end of this press release. We do not provide a forward-looking reconciliation of our outlook for Segment Adjusted EBITDA, Segment Gross Margin or Adjusted Free Cash Flow, as the amount and significance of items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures cannot be estimated at this time without unreasonable efforts. These special items could be meaningful.

(1) Includes
 our oilfield equipment manufacturing activities.

(2) Represents
 the elimination of inter-segment transactions related to our Rig Technologies operating segment.

(3) Adjusted
 EBITDA represents net income (loss) before income (loss) from discontinued operations, net
 of tax, income tax expense (benefit), investment income (loss), interest expense, other,
 net and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and
 should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the amounts reported in accordance
 with GAAP. In addition, adjusted EBITDA excludes certain cash expenses that the Company is
 obligated to make. However, management evaluates the performance of its operating segments
 and the consolidated Company based on several criteria, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted
 operating income (loss), because it believes that these financial measures accurately reflect
 the Company's ongoing profitability and performance. Securities analysts
 and investors use this measure as one of the metrics on which they analyze the Company's
 performance. Other companies in this industry may compute these measures differently. A
 reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to net income (loss), which is the most closely comparable
 GAAP measure, is provided in the table set forth immediately following the heading "Reconciliation
 of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Net Income (Loss)".

(4) Represents
 the elimination of inter-segment transactions and unallocated corporate expenses.

(5) Adjusted
 operating income (loss) represents net income (loss) before income (losses) from discontinued
 operations, net of tax, income tax expense (benefit), investment income (loss), interest
 expense and other, net. Adjusted operating income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial
 measure and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the amounts reported in
 accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted operating income (loss) excludes certain cash
 expenses that the Company is obligated to make. However, management evaluates the performance
 of its operating segments and the consolidated Company based on several criteria, including
 adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss), because it believes that these financial
 measures accurately reflect the Company's ongoing profitability and performance. Securities

 reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to net income (loss), which is the most closely comparable
 GAAP measure, is provided in the table set forth immediately following the heading "Reconciliation
 of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Net Income (Loss)".

(6) Rig
 revenue days represents the number of days the Company's rigs are contracted and performing
 under a contract during the period. These would typically include days in which
 operating, standby and move revenue is earned.

(7) Average
 rigs working represents a measure of the average number of rigs operating during a given
 period. For example, one rig operating 45 days during a quarter represents approximately
 0.5 average rigs working for the quarter. On an annual period, one rig operating
 182.5 days represents approximately 0.5 average rigs working for the year. Average
 rigs working can also be calculated as rig revenue days during the period divided by the
 number of calendar days in the period.

(8) Daily
 rig revenue represents operating revenue, divided by the total number of revenue days during
 the quarter.

(9) Daily
 adjusted gross margin represents operating revenue less direct costs, divided by the total
 number of rig revenue days during the quarter.

(10) The
 U.S. Drilling segment includes the Lower 48, Alaska, and Gulf of Mexico operating areas.

(1) Adjusted operating income (loss) represents net income (loss) before income (losses) from discontinued operations, net of tax, income tax expense (benefit), investment income (loss), interest expense, and other, net. Adjusted operating income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the amounts reported in accordance with GAAP. In addition, adjusted operating income (loss) excludes certain cash expenses that the Company is obligated to make. However, management evaluates the performance of its operating segments and the consolidated Company based on several criteria, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income (loss), because it believes that these financial measures accurately reflect the Company's ongoing profitability and performance. Securities analysts and investors use this measure as one of the metrics on which they analyze the Company's performance. Other companies in this industry may compute these measures differently.

(2) Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, income tax expense (benefit), investment income (loss), interest expense, other, net and depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sales of assets. Management believes that adjusted free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of the company's ability to generate cash flow, after reinvesting in the company for future growth, that could be available for paying down debt or other financing cash flows, such as dividends to shareholders. Adjusted free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, cash flow from operations reported in accordance with GAAP.

NABORS.COM We often discuss expectations regarding our future markets, demand for our products and services, and our performance in our annual, quarterly, and current reports, press releases, and other written and oral statements . Such statements, including statements in this document that relate to matters that are not historical facts, are "forward - looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of Section 27 A of the U . S . Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21 E of the U . S . Securities Exchange Act of 1934 . These "forward - looking statements" are based on our analysis of currently available competitive, financial and economic data and our operating plans . They are inherently uncertain, and investors should recognize that events and actual results could turn out to be significantly different from our expectations . Factors to consider when evaluating these forward - looking statements include, but are not limited to: • actual and potential political or economic instability, civil disturbance, war or acts of terrorism involving any of the countries in which we do business; • the Covid - 19 pandemic and its impact on oil and gas markets and prices; • fluctuations and volatility in worldwide prices of and demand for oil and natural gas; • fluctuations in levels of oil and natural gas exploration and development activities; • fluctuations in the demand for our services; • competitive and technological changes and other developments in the oil and gas and oilfield services industries; • our ability to renew customer contracts in order to maintain competitiveness; • the existence of operating risks inherent in the oil and gas and oilfield services industries; • the possibility of the loss of one or a number of our large customers; • the impact of long - term indebtedness and other financial commitments on our financial and operating flexibility; • our access to and the cost of capital, including the impact of a further downgrade in our credit rating, covenant restrictions, availability under our revolving credit facility, and future issuances of debt or equity securities; • our dependence on our operating subsidiaries and investments to meet our financial obligations; 2 Forward Looking Statements • our ability to retain skilled employees; • our ability to complete, and realize the expected benefits of, strategic transactions; • changes in tax laws and the possibility of changes in other laws and regulation; • the possibility of changes to U.S. trade policies and regulations including the imposition of trade embargoes or sanctions; and • general economic conditions, including inflation, rising interest rates and the general status of the capital and credit markets. Our businesses depend, to a large degree, on the level of spending by oil and gas companies for exploration, development and production activities . Therefore, sustained lower oil or natural gas prices that have a material impact on exploration, development or production activities could also materially affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows . The above description of risks and uncertainties is by no means all - inclusive but is designed to highlight what we believe are important factors to consider . For a discussion of these factors and other risks and uncertainties, please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including those contained in our Annual Reports on Form 10 - K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q, which are available at the SEC's website at www . sec . gov . We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward - looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law . Non - GAAP Financial Measures This presentation refers to certain "non - GAAP" financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, net debt and adjusted free cash flow . The components of these non - GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") . Reconciliations of non - GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are provided in the Appendix at the end of this presentation .
