During August 2019, Schlumberger’s market capitalization deteriorated significantly compared to the end of the second quarter of 2019. Schlumberger’s stock price reached a low not seen since 2005. Additionally, the Philadelphia Oil Services Sector Index, which is comprised of companies involved in the oil services sector, reached an 18-year low.

As a result of these facts, Schlumberger determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of certain of its reporting units were less than their carrying value. Therefore, Schlumberger performed an interim goodwill impairment test as of August 31, 2019.

As of August 31, 2019, Schlumberger had 17 reporting units with goodwill balances aggregating $25.0 billion. Schlumberger determined that the fair value of seven of its reporting units, representing approximately $13.8 billion of the goodwill, was substantially in excess of their carrying value. Schlumberger performed a detailed quantitative impairment assessment of the remaining 10 reporting units, which represented $11.2 billion of goodwill. As a result of this assessment, Schlumberger concluded that the goodwill associated with nine of the 10 reporting units was impaired, resulting in an $8.8 billion goodwill impairment charge. This charge primarily relates to Schlumberger’s Drilling and Cameron segments.

Following the $8.8 billion goodwill impairment charge relating to these nine reporting units, only three had a remaining goodwill balance. These three reporting units had goodwill balances which ranged between $0.4 billion and $0.6 billion and aggregated to $1.5 billion as of August 31, 2019. The tenth reporting unit, which was determined not to be impaired, had $0.9 billion of goodwill.

Schlumberger primarily used the income approach to estimate the fair value of its reporting units, but also considered the market approach to validate the results. The income approach estimates the fair value by discounting each reporting unit’s estimated future cash flows using Schlumberger’s estimate of the discount rate, or expected return, that a marketplace participant would have required as of the valuation date. The market approach includes the use of comparative multiples to corroborate the discounted cash flow results. The market approach involves significant judgement involved in the selection of the appropriate peer group companies and valuation multiples.

Some of the more significant assumptions inherent in the income approach include the estimated future net annual cash flows for each reporting unit and the discount rate. Schlumberger selected the assumptions used in the discounted cash flow projections using historical data supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions and estimated growth rates. Schlumberger’s estimates are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. However, given the inherent uncertainty in determining the assumptions underlying a discounted cash flow analysis, actual results may differ from those used in Schlumberger’s valuations which could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

The discount rates utilized to value Schlumberger’s reporting units were between 12.5% and 14.0%, depending on the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective reporting unit. Assuming all other assumptions and inputs used in each of the respective discounted cash flow analysis were held constant, a 50 basis point increase in the discount rate assumption would have increased the goodwill impairment charge by approximately $0.3 billion. Conversely, assuming all other assumptions and inputs used in each of the respective discounted cash flow analysis were held constant, a 50 basis point decrease in the discount rate assumption would have decreased the goodwill impairment charge by approximately $0.4 billion.

•

The negative market indicators described above combined with deteriorating market conditions in North America, as well as the results of the previously mentioned fair value determinations of certain of Schlumberger’s reporting units and the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer (as described below), were all triggering events that indicated that certain of Schlumberger’s long-lived tangible and intangible assets may be impaired.

Recoverability testing, which was performed as of August 31, 2019, indicated that long-lived assets associated with certain asset groups were impaired. The estimated fair value of these asset groups was determined to be below their carrying value. As a result, Schlumberger recorded the following impairment and related charges:

$1.085 billion of intangible assets, of which $842 million relates to Schlumberger’s 2010 acquisition of Smith International, Inc. The remaining $243 million primarily relates to other acquisitions in North America.

$1.575 billion of charges relating to Schlumberger’s pressure pumping business in North America. This amount consists of $1.324 billion of pressure pumping equipment and related assets; $98 million of right-of-use assets under operating leases; $121 million relating to a supply contract; $19 million of inventory; and $13 million of severance.

$310 million of charges primarily relating to other businesses in North America, consisting of $230 million of fixed asset impairments, $70 million of inventory write-downs and $10 million of severance.

•

As a result of the ongoing economic challenges in Argentina, Schlumberger recorded $127 million of charges during the third quarter of 2019. This consists of $72 million of asset impairments, a $26 million devaluation charge and $29 million of severance.

•

Schlumberger also recorded the following impairment and restructuring charges:

$231 million relating to certain equity method investments that were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

$294 million impairment relating to the carrying value of certain smaller Schlumberger Production Management (“SPM”) projects.

$242 million of restructuring charges consisting of: $62 million of severance; $57 million relating to the acceleration of stock-based compensation expense associated with certain individuals; $49 million of business divestiture costs; $29 million relating to the repurchase of certain Senior Notes (see Note 9 - Long-term Debt); and $45 million of other provisions.

The fair value of certain of these impaired assets was estimated based on the present value of projected future cash flows that the underlying assets are expected to generate. Such estimates included unobservable inputs that required significant judgment.

Substantially all of the charges recorded during the third quarter of 2019 will not result in any future cash outflows.

During the third quarter of 2019, Schlumberger’s Board of Directors announced the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer. As the new Chief Executive Officer further develops and implements his strategy, it may result in additional restructuring charges in future periods. Furthermore, Schlumberger may be required to record additional impairment charges if industry conditions deteriorate.

There were no charges or credits recorded during the first six months of 2019.

2018

During the second quarter of 2018, Schlumberger recorded a $184 million pretax charge ($164 million after-tax) associated with headcount reductions, primarily to further streamline its support cost structure. This charge is classified in Impairments & other in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

There were no charges or credits recorded during the first and third quarters of 2018.

During the third quarter of 2019, Schlumberger issued €500 million of 0.00% Notes due 2024, €500 million of 0.25% Notes due 2027 and €500 million of 0.50% Notes due 2031.

In September 2019, Schlumberger repurchased $783 million of its 3.00% Senior Notes due 2020 and $321 million of its 3.625% Senior Notes due 2022. Schlumberger paid a premium of $29 million in connection with these repurchases. This premium was classified as Impairments & other in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). (See Note 2 - Charges and Credits.)

In April 2019, Schlumberger completed a debt exchange offer, pursuant to which it issued $1.500 billion in principal of 3.90% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “New Notes”) in exchange for $401 million of 3.00% Senior Notes due 2020, $234 million of 3.63% Senior Notes due 2022 and $817 million of 4.00% Senior Notes due 2025. In connection with the exchange of principal, Schlumberger paid a premium of $48 million, substantially all of which was in the form of New Notes. This premium is being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the New Notes.

The estimated fair value of Schlumberger’s Long-term Debt, based on quoted market prices at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, was $16.9 billion and $14.6 billion, respectively.

At September 30, 2019, Schlumberger had separate committed credit facility agreements aggregating $6.5 billion with commercial banks, of which $4.1 billion was available and unused. These committed facilities support commercial paper programs in the United States and Europe, of which $1.0 billion matures in February 2020, $2.0 billion matures in February 2023, $2.0 billion matures in February 2024 and $1.5 billion matures in July 2024. Interest rates and other terms of borrowing under these lines of credit vary by facility.

Borrowings under Schlumberger’s commercial paper programs at September 30, 2019 were $2.4 billion, of which $0.3 billion was classified in Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt and the remaining $2.1 billion was classified in Long-term Debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. At December 31, 2018, borrowings under the commercial paper programs were $2.4 billion, all of which was classified in Long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Schlumberger is exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To mitigate these risks, Schlumberger utilizes derivative instruments. Schlumberger does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

Schlumberger is subject to interest rate risk on its debt and its investment portfolio. Schlumberger maintains an interest rate risk management strategy that uses a mix of variable and fixed rate debt combined with its investment portfolio, to mitigate the exposure to changes in interest rates.

At September 30, 2019, Schlumberger had fixed rate debt aggregating $14.0 billion and variable rate debt aggregating $2.7 billion.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

As a multinational company, Schlumberger generates revenue in more than 120 countries. Schlumberger’s functional currency is primarily the US dollar. However, outside the United States, a significant portion of Schlumberger’s expenses are incurred in foreign currencies. Therefore, when the US dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the foreign currencies of the countries in which Schlumberger conducts business, the US dollar-reported expenses will increase (decrease).

Schlumberger is exposed to risks on future cash flows to the extent that the local currency is not the functional currency and expenses denominated in local currency are not equal to revenues denominated in local currency. Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts to provide a hedge against a portion of these cash flow risks. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the changes in the fair value of the hedge recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. Amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods that the hedged item is recognized in earnings.

Schlumberger is also exposed to risks on future cash flows relating to certain of its fixed rate debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Schlumberger uses cross-currency swaps to provide a hedge against these cash flow risks.

During 2017, a Canadian-dollar functional currency subsidiary of Schlumberger issued $1.1 billion of US-dollar denominated debt. Schlumberger entered into cross-currency swaps for an aggregate notional amount of $1.1 billion in order to hedge changes in the fair value of its $0.5 billion of 2.20% Senior Notes due 2020 and its $0.6 billion of 2.65% Senior Notes due 2022. These cross-currency swaps effectively convert the US-dollar denominated notes to Canadian-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 1.97% and 2.52%, respectively.

During the third quarter of 2019, a US-dollar functional currency subsidiary of Schlumberger issued €1.5 billion of Euro-denominated debt. Schlumberger entered into cross-currency swaps for an aggregate notional amount of €1.5 billion in order to hedge changes in the fair value of its €0.5 billion 0.00% Notes due 2024, €0.5 billion 0.25% Notes due 2027 and €0.5 billion Notes due 2031. These cross-currency swaps effectively convert the Euro-denominated notes to US-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 2.29%, 2.51% and 2.76%, respectively.

Schlumberger is exposed to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. While Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options to economically hedge this exposure as it relates to certain currencies, these contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Instead, the fair value of the contracts is recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and changes in the fair value are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) as are changes in fair value of the hedged item.

At September 30, 2019, contracts were outstanding for the US dollar equivalent of $6.8 billion in various foreign currencies, of which $2.8 billion relates to hedges of debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.

At September 30, 2019, Schlumberger recognized a cumulative $37 million loss in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss relating to changes in the fair value of foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swaps.

The effect of derivative instruments designated as fair value and cash flow hedges, and those not designated as hedges, on the Consolidated Statement of (Loss) Income was as follows:

							(Stated in millions)

	Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income (Loss)

11. Contingencies

Schlumberger is party to various legal proceedings from time to time. A liability is accrued when a loss is both probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that the probability of a material loss with respect to any currently pending legal proceeding is remote. However, litigation is inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate disposition of any of these proceedings.

Third-quarter revenue of $8.5 billion increased 3% sequentially with North America revenue of $2.8 billion increasing 2%, while international revenue of $5.6 billion increased 3%.

International revenue increased 3% sequentially, led by Europe/CIS/Africa where revenue increased 9% sequentially driven by the peak summer activity campaigns in the Northern Hemisphere as well as the start of new projects in Africa. Sequential international revenue growth was also driven by double-digit growth in Asia. Latin America revenue decreased 9% sequentially on lower activity in Argentina and Mexico. International activity in the fourth quarter will be affected by the usual winter slowdown, particularly in the Northern Hemisphere.

North America revenue improved 2% sequentially, driven by WesternGeco^® multiclient seismic license sales. Land revenue was slightly higher as a modest increase in OneStim^® activity was off-set by softer pricing while land drilling revenue was essentially flat despite the lower rig count. As Schlumberger exited the third quarter, OneStim activity decelerated as frac programs were either deferred or cancelled due to customer budget and cash flow constraints.

The third quarter’s results reflected a macro environment of slowing production growth rate in North American land as operators maintained capital discipline and reduced drilling and frac activity. Year-to-date high single-digit international revenue growth continues to be underpinned by international investment levels. Market uncertainty, however, is weighing on future oil demand outlook in a climate where trade concerns are seen as challenging global economic growth.

Reservoir Characterization

Reservoir Characterization revenue of $1.7 billion increased 6% sequentially due to peak summer activity campaigns. Growth was led by Wireline international activity, increased Integrated Service Management (ISM) project activity in India and higher WesternGeco multiclient seismic license sales in North America.

Reservoir Characterization pretax operating margin of 22% was 149 basis points (bps) higher sequentially due to the peak summer campaign for Wireline and stronger WesternGeco multiclient seismic license sales.

Drilling

Drilling revenue of $2.5 billion increased 2% sequentially led by stronger international activity in Russia from the peak summer drilling campaign that mainly benefited Drilling & Measurements. Higher drilling activity in China and Australia also contributed to the sequential growth.

Drilling pretax operating margin of 12% was essentially flat sequentially.

Production

Production revenue of $3.2 billion increased 2% sequentially, primarily driven by higher international activity for Completions in the Far East, Asia & Australia, Russia & Central Asia, and Sub-Sahara Africa GeoMarkets.

Recent production shut-ins in Ecuador due to the ongoing civil unrest may potentially impact fourth quarter revenue.

Production pretax operating margin of 9% expanded 148 bps sequentially largely due to improved international margins from higher activity. Additionally, the reduction in depreciation and amortization expense as a result of the third quarter 2019 impairment charges (see Note 2 - Charges & Credits) accounted for just under half of the sequential margin improvement.

Cameron

Cameron revenue of $1.4 billion increased 3% sequentially driven by higher international revenue for Surface Systems, OneSubsea, and Drilling Systems.

Cameron pretax operating margin of 13% was essentially flat sequentially.

Third-quarter 2019 revenue of $8.5 billion was essentially flat year-on-year as North America revenue declined 11% while international revenue increased 8%. The international results were underpinned by increased investment levels. In contrast, the North America results reflect a slowing production growth rate on land as operators maintained capital discipline and reduced drilling and frac activity.

Reservoir Characterization

Third-quarter 2019 revenue of $1.7 billion was 4% higher year-on-year. Revenue in Wireline, Testing, and ISM drove the increase as a result of higher international activity.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 90 bps to 22%.

Drilling

Third-quarter 2019 revenue of $2.5 billion increased 2% year-on-year primarily due to higher demand for drilling services, largely in the international markets.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 161 bps to 12% despite higher revenue as margins were affected by competitive pricing and higher costs associated with a number of integrated contracts internationally.

Production

Third-quarter 2019 revenue of $3.2 billion decreased 3% year-on-year with most of the revenue decrease attributable to lower OneStim activity in North America as customers reduced spending due to higher cost of capital, lower borrowing capacity and expectation of better returns from their shareholders.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 72 bps to 9% primarily due to reduced profitability in OneStim in North America.

Cameron

Third-quarter 2019 revenue of $1.4 billion decreased 2% year-on-year due to lower revenue for OneSubsea and Valves & Process Systems.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin increased 117 bps to 13% due to improved profitability in OneSubsea.

Nine-month 2019 revenue of $24.7 billion was essentially flat year-on-year with North America revenue decreasing 8% and international revenue increasing 6%. The international results were underpinned by increased investment levels. In contrast, the North America results reflect a slowing production growth rate on land as operators maintained capital discipline and reduced drilling and frac activity.

Reservoir Characterization

Nine-month 2019 revenue of $4.7 billion increased 1% year-on-year primarily driven by increased international activity.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 91 bps to 20%.

Drilling

Nine-month 2019 revenue of $7.3 billion increased 7% year-on-year primarily due to higher demand for drilling services, largely in the international markets that benefited Drilling & Measurements, M-I SWACO, and Integrated Drilling Services (IDS).

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 103 bps to 12% despite higher revenue as margins were affected by competitive pricing and higher costs associated with a number of integrated contracts internationally.

Production

Nine-month 2019 revenue of $9.1 billion decreased 4% year-on-year with most of the revenue decline attributable to lower OneStim activity in North America as customers reduced spending due to higher cost of capital lower, borrowing capacity and expectation of better returns from their shareholders.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 90 bps to 8% primarily due to reduced profitability in OneStim in North America.

Cameron

Nine-month 2019 revenue of $3.9 billion decreased 5% year-on-year due to lower revenue for OneSubsea and Valves & Process Systems.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 19 bps to 12%.

Interest and Other Income

Interest & other income consisted of the following:

(Stated in millions)

	Third Quarter				Nine Months
	2019		2018		2019		2018
Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies	$	13	$	26	$	30	$	67
Interest income		8		10		31		51
	$	21	$	36	$	61	$	118

The decreases in earnings from equity method investments primarily relates to lower income associated with Schlumberger's equity investments in rig- and seismic-related businesses.

Interest income for the first nine months of 2019 declined $20 million to $31 million as compared to the same period of 2018 as a result of lower short-term investment balances.

Other

Research & engineering and General & administrative expenses, as a percentage of Revenue, for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Third Quarter						Nine Months
	2019			2018			2019			2018
Research & engineering		2.1	%		2.1	%		2.1	%		2.1	%
General & administrative		1.4	%		1.2	%		1.4	%		1.3	%

The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2019 was 5%, as compared to 16% for the same period of 2018. The lower effective tax rate was almost entirely due to the charges described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which were primarily related to non-deductible goodwill.

The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2019 was 4%, as compared to 18% for the same period of 2018. The charges described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements reduced the effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2019 by 12 percentage points, as the majority of the charges related to non-deductible goodwill.

Charges and Credits

2019

Schlumberger recorded the following charges in connection with the preparation of its third quarter 2019 financial statements, which are fully described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, all of which are classified in Impairment & other in the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss):

	(Stated in millions)

	Pretax		Tax			Net
Goodwill	$	8,828	$	(43	)	$	8,785
Intangible assets		1,085		(248	)		837

Other		242		(13	)		229
	$	12,692	$	(713	)	$	11,979

As these impairment charges were effective as of August 31, 2019, the third quarter 2019 results include a one month reduction in depreciation and amortization expense of $27 million. Approximately $21 million of this amount relates to the Production segment. The remaining $6 million is reflected in the “Corporate & other” line item.

There were no charges or credits recorded during the first six months of 2019.

2018

There were no charges or credits recorded during the first and third quarters of 2018.

⁽¹⁾

^“Net debt” represents gross debt less cash and short-term investments. Management believes that Net debt provides useful information regarding the level of Schlumberger’s indebtedness by reflecting cash and investments that could be used to repay debt. Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, total debt.

⁽²⁾	Includes depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets, multiclient seismic data costs and SPM investments.

⁽³⁾	Includes severance payments of approximately $104 million and $265 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

⁽⁴⁾

“Free cash flow” represents cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, SPM investments and multiclient seismic data costs capitalized. Management believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of our ability to generate cash. Once business needs and obligations are met, this cash can be used to reinvest in the company for future growth or to return to shareholders through dividend payments or share repurchases. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as substitute for or superior to, cash flow from operations.

Key liquidity events during the first nine months of 2019 and 2018 included:

•

On January 21, 2016, the Board approved a $10 billion share repurchase program for Schlumberger common stock. Schlumberger had repurchased $1.0 billion of Schlumberger common stock under this program as of September 30, 2019.

The following table summarizes the activity under the share repurchase program:

(Stated in millions, except per share amounts)

	Total cost		Total number		Average price
	of shares		of shares		paid per
	purchased		purchased		share
Nine months ended September 30, 2019	$	278		7.0	$	39.92
Nine months ended September 30, 2018	$	300		4.4	$	67.67

•

Capital expenditures were $1.2 billion during the first nine months of 2019 compared to $1.5 billion during the first nine months of 2018. Capital expenditures for full-year 2019 are expected to be approximately $1.6 billion to $1.7 billion as compared to $2.2 billion in 2018.

•

During the third quarter of 2019, Schlumberger issued €500 million of 0.00% Notes due 2024, €500 million of 0.25% Notes due 2027 and €500 million of 0.50% Notes due 2031.

•

In September 2019, Schlumberger repurchased $783 million of its 3.00% Senior Notes due 2020 and $321 million of its 3.625% Senior Notes due 2022.

•

In April 2019, Schlumberger completed a debt exchange offer, pursuant to which it issued $1.500 billion in principal of 3.90% Senior Notes due 2028 in exchange for $401 million of 3.00% Senior Notes due 2020, $234 million of 3.63% Senior Notes due 2022 and $817 million of 4.00% Senior Notes due 2025.

•

During the first quarter of 2019, Schlumberger issued $750 million of 3.75% Senior Notes due 2024 and $850 million of 4.30% Senior Notes due 2029.

In October 2019, Schlumberger and Rockwell Automation closed their previously announced joint venture, Sensia. Rockwell Automation owns 53% of the joint venture and Schlumberger owns 47%. At closing, Rockwell Automation made a $250 million cash payment to Schlumberger.

Schlumberger generates revenue in more than 120 countries. As of September 30, 2019, five of those countries individually accounted for greater than 5% of Schlumberger’s net receivables balance, of which only the United States accounted for greater than 10% of such receivables.

As of September 30, 2019, Schlumberger had $2.3 billion of cash and short-term investments on hand. Schlumberger had separate committed debt facility agreements aggregating $6.5 billion that support commercial paper programs, of which $4.1 billion was available and unused. Schlumberger believes these amounts are sufficient to meet future business requirements for at least the next 12 months.

This third-quarter 2019 Form 10-Q, as well as other statements we make, contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which include any statements that are not historical facts, such as our forecasts or expectations regarding business outlook; our expectations regarding the amount of cash expenditures estimated to be incurred as a result of the impairment charges described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements; growth for Schlumberger as a whole and for each of its segments (and for specified products or geographic areas within each segment); oil and natural gas demand and production growth; oil and natural gas prices; improvements in operating procedures and technology, including our transformation program; capital expenditures by Schlumberger and the oil and gas industry; the business strategies of Schlumberger’s customers; our effective tax rate; future global economic conditions; and future results of operations. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, global economic conditions; changes in exploration and production spending by Schlumberger’s customers and changes in the level of oil and natural gas exploration and development; general economic, political and business conditions in key regions of the world; foreign currency risk; pricing pressure; weather and seasonal factors; operational modifications, delays or cancellations; production declines; changes in government regulations and regulatory requirements, including those related to offshore oil and gas exploration, radioactive sources, explosives, chemicals, hydraulic fracturing services and climate-related initiatives; the inability of technology to meet new challenges in exploration; and other risks and uncertainties detailed in this third-quarter 2019 Form 10-Q and our most recent Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. If

one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize (or the consequences of any such development changes), or should our underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements. Schlumberger disclaims any intention or obligation to update publicly or revise such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting Schlumberger, see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” of the Schlumberger Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. Schlumberger’s exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Schlumberger has carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of Schlumberger’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of Schlumberger’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, Schlumberger’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that Schlumberger files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Schlumberger’s disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to its management, including the CEO and the CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There was no change in Schlumberger’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Schlumberger’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 5. Other Information.

In 2013, Schlumberger completed the wind down of its service operations in Iran. Prior to this, certain non-US subsidiaries provided oilfield services to the National Iranian Oil Company and certain of its affiliates (“NIOC”).

Schlumberger’s residual transactions or dealings with the government of Iran during the third quarter of 2019 consisted of payments of taxes and other typical governmental charges. Certain non-US subsidiaries of Schlumberger maintain depository accounts at the Dubai branch of Bank Saderat Iran (“Saderat”), and at Bank Tejarat (“Tejarat”) in Tehran and in Kish for the deposit by NIOC of amounts owed to non-US subsidiaries of Schlumberger for prior services rendered in Iran and for the maintenance of such amounts previously received. One non-US subsidiary also maintained an account at Tejarat for payment of local expenses such as taxes. Schlumberger anticipates that it will discontinue dealings with Saderat and Tejarat following the receipt of all amounts owed to Schlumberger for prior services rendered in Iran.
