Halliburton Co. (NYSE: HAL) reported a smaller quarterly loss from a year earlier when the oilfield service provider recorded $2.77 billion in charges.
Net loss attributable to Halliburton narrowed to $32 million, or 4 cents per share, in the first quarter ended March 31, from $2.41 billion, or $2.81 per share, a year earlier.
The year-ago quarter included charges mainly related to asset impairments.
The world’s No. 2 oilfield services provider said on April 24 that revenue rose 1.9% to $4.28 billion as U.S. shale producers added more rigs, buoyed by oil prices that have stabilized above $50 after a more than two-year slump.
