"Oil prices have rebounded as the combination of resilient oil demand and production cuts have tightened the market. As a result, the oil market is likely to see inventory draws through the rest of 2023. Continued discipline from the world’s largest producers, the pace of oil demand growth in the face of economic uncertainty, and geopolitical risk will be important factors to monitor as we look into 2024."
"Outside of the upstream markets, the global LNG market remains fundamentally tight despite recent economic softness. This tightness is evidenced by the recent LNG price spikes that resulted from the current
"As we enhance our position as a leading energy technology company, we remain excited about the continued growth that we see across both segments. While there is a growing consensus the energy transition will likely take longer and be more complex than many expected, our unique portfolio is set to benefit irrespective of the pace of development. Importantly, we are laying the foundation today for a more durable earnings and free cash flow growth profile, enabling best-in-class returns and structurally increasing shareholder returns. I want to thank our shareholders, our customers, and our employees for their continued support as we continue to take energy forward," concluded Simonelli.

The sequential increase in adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA was driven by higher volume in both segments and price in OFSE, partially offset by negative equipment mix in IET. The year-over-year increase in adjusted operating income and adjusted EBITDA was driven by volume and pricing in both segments and structural cost out initiatives, partially offset by cost inflation in both segments, and higher equipment mix and higher research and development (R&D) spend in IET.

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management provides non-GAAP financial measures because it believes such measures are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance (including adjusted operating income; EBITDA; EBITDA margin; adjusted EBITDA; adjusted net income attributable to Baker Hughes; and adjusted diluted earnings per share) and liquidity (free cash flow) and that these measures may be used by investors to make informed investment decisions. Management believes that the exclusion of certain identified items from several key operating performance measures enables us to evaluate our operations more effectively, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals for certain management compensation purposes. Management also believes that free cash flow is an important supplemental measure of our cash performance but should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP.
