Halliburton reports Q3 results and projects mid‑single‑digit revenue growth with 15% margins for 2024

Halliburton posted third‑quarter revenue of about $5.71 billion and adjusted earnings of $0.60 per diluted share. International revenue rose 3% to $3.5 billion while North American revenue fell 5% to $2.2 billion. The company forecast mid‑single‑digit revenue growth and operating margins near 15% for 2024, citing stronger international drilling and production activity.

The higher‑margin outlook suggests improved profitability for investors if international contracts materialize. The guidance also signals that the company expects revenue growth despite flat U.S. activity, which could affect valuation models.
