Oil States International, Inc. (NYSE:OIS): During its
Third Quarter 2024 Earnings Conference Call held on October 30,
2024, Oil States provided a strategic update announcing several
important initiatives including business unit optimization, the
exit of certain U.S. domestic underperforming business lines and
locations, continued investment in new technologies including
Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) systems, the generation of free
cash flow to facilitate growth and the enhancement of stockholder
returns via an increased share repurchase authorization.
To provide an update on these initiatives, Oil States is pleased
to announce that it has completed the sale of a previously idled
facility generating net proceeds of $24.8 million. Together with
cash on-hand and cash flows generated from its operations, net debt

repurchase authorization plan in October 2024, Oil States has
repurchased 1.5 million shares of its common stock for
consideration totaling $7.9 million.
Oil States’ President and Chief Executive Officer, Cindy B.
Taylor, stated, “The consolidation of our Houston operations and
completion of the sale of our Houston Ship Channel facility
combined with the repurchase of our common stock adds momentum to
the execution of our long-term strategy and demonstrates our
commitment to enhance stockholder value. We will continue to
capitalize on offshore and international growth opportunities,
invest in differentiated technology offerings and optimize our
domestic operations to maximize free cash flow with plans to
increase returns for stockholders.”
