NABORS INDUSTRIES LTD. (NYSE:NBR) Files An 8-K Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial
Condition.

On April26, 2017, we issued a press release announcing our
results of operations for the three-month period ended March31,
2017. A copy of that release is furnished herewith as Exhibit99.1
and is incorporated herein by reference.

The press release includes forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities
Act) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act). Such forward-looking statements are subject to
risks and uncertainties, as disclosed from time to time in our
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result
of these factors, our actual results may differ materially from
those indicated or implied by such forward-looking statements.

We also presented in the press release certain non-GAAP financial
measures. We presented our adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating
income (loss) and net debt for all periods presented in the
release. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed
by using amounts that are determined in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP). Adjusted EBITDA is computed by subtracting the
sum of direct costs, general and administrative expenses, and
research and engineering expenses from the sum of operating
revenues. Adjusted operating income (loss) is computed similarly,
but also subtracts depreciation and amortization expenses from
the sum of operating revenues. Net debt is calculated as total
debt minus the sum of cash and cash equivalents and short-term
investments. As part of the press release information, we have
provided a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted
operating income (loss) to income (loss) from continuing
operations before income taxes and net debt to total debt which
are the most closely comparable GAAP financial measures.

Management evaluates the performance of our operating segments
and our consolidated results based on several criteria, including
these non-GAAP measures, because it believes that these financial
measures accurately reflect our ongoing profitability and
performance. There are, however, certain limitations to these
measures and therefore they should be considered in addition to
and not as an alternative to our results in accordance with GAAP.

The information in this Item 2.02, including Exhibit99.1, shall
not be deemed filed for purposes of Section18 of the Exchange
Act, or otherwise subject to liabilities of that Sectionor
Sections 11 and 12(a)(2)of the Securities Act.

Item 7.01. Other Events.

On April27, 2017, we will present certain information in
connection with our call with shareholders, analysts and others
relating to our results of operations discussed above. Attached
hereto as Exhibit99.2 are slides that will be presented at that
time.

The information included in this Current Report on Form8-K under
Item 7.01, including Exhibit99.2, is being furnished and shall
not be deemed filed for purposes of Section18 of the Exchange
Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Sectionor
Sections 11 and 12(a)(2)of the Securities Act.
