Summary

SLB LIMITED/NV (SLB) reported its first-quarter 2013 results, showcasing a slight increase in revenue and a marginal decrease in net income compared to the same period in the prior year. Total revenue for the quarter reached $10.7 billion, up from $9.9 billion in Q1 2012, driven by strong international performance across its oilfield services segments. Net income attributable to Schlumberger was $1.3 billion, or $0.94 per diluted share, compared to $1.3 billion, or $0.97 per diluted share, in the prior year's first quarter. The company experienced a notable foreign currency loss of $92 million due to the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency, impacting profitability. Operationally, SLB demonstrated solid execution with revenue growth in international markets, particularly in the Middle East & Asia and Europe/CIS/Africa regions, which offset a decline in North America revenue. The company's strong cash flow from operations provided ample liquidity, with significant share repurchases continuing under its approved program. Management remains focused on operational efficiency and strategic growth initiatives while navigating geopolitical and currency-related challenges.
