The Company’s current, quarterly, and annual reports may be accessed on the OTC’s website at https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/UNTC/disclosure, as well as the Company’s website at https://unitcorp.com/investor-relations/otc-sec-filings/.

Third Quarter and Year to Date Results

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $8.9 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, compared to $28.8 million, or $2.94 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $53.7 million, compared to $80.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net income was $36.6 million, or $3.67 per diluted share, compared to $191.5 million, or $19.55 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $177.7 million, compared to $252.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

“Our current year results remain on track, with results reflecting a relatively stable contract drilling market, as well as the expected decline in production volumes due to the December 2023 sale of certain non-core oil and gas assets in the Texas Panhandle,” said Phil Frohlich, Chief Executive Officer.

Operational highlights for the oil and natural gas and contract drilling segments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 include:
