BASIS OF PRESENTATION Effective September 25, 1997, National-Oilwell completed a combination ("Combination") with Dreco Energy Services Ltd. ("Dreco"). As a result of the Combination, each Dreco Class "A" common share ("Dreco Common Share") outstanding was converted into .9159 of a Dreco Exchangeable Share ("Exchangeable Share") and, accordingly, approximately 14.4 million Exchangeable Shares were issued. Each Exchangeable Share is intended to have substantially identical economic and legal rights as, and will ultimately be exchanged on a one-for-one basis for, a share of National-Oilwell common stock. The Combination was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and the consolidated financial statements of National-Oilwell and Dreco have been combined with all prior periods restated to give effect to the Combination. Information concerning common stock and per share data has been restated on an equivalent share basis and assumes the exchange of all Exchangeable Shares. National-Oilwell has a year end of December 31 and, prior to the Combination, Dreco had a year end of August 31. The restated financial statements combine the December 31, 1996 balance sheet of National-Oilwell with the November 30, 1996 balance sheet of Dreco. The income statement reflects the combined three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the combination of the three months ended March 31, 1997 for National-Oilwell with the three months ended February 28, 1997 for Dreco. 2.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. Statement 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components. The adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Company's net income or shareholders' equity. Statement 130 requires unrealized gains or losses on the Company's available-for-sale securities and foreign currency translation adjustments, which prior to adoption were reported separately in shareholders' equity, to be included in other comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the requirements of Statement 130. During the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive income amounted to $24,314 and $8,478. 4. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 4 6 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION The Company is a worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and sale of machinery and equipment and in the distribution of maintenance, repair and operating ("MRO") products used in oil and gas drilling and production. The Company's revenues are directly related to the level of worldwide oil and gas drilling and production activities and the profitability and cash flow of oil and gas companies and drilling contractors, which in turn are affected by current and anticipated prices of oil and gas. Effective September 25, 1997, National-Oilwell completed a combination ("Combination") with Dreco Energy Services Ltd. ("Dreco"). As a result of the Combination, each Dreco Class "A" common share ("Dreco Common Share") outstanding was converted into .9159 of a Dreco Exchangeable Share ("Exchangeable Share") and, accordingly, approximately 14.4 million Exchangeable Shares were issued. Each Exchangeable Share is intended to have substantially identical economic and legal rights as, and will ultimately be exchanged on a one-for-one basis for, a share of National-Oilwell common stock. Approximately 80% of the Exchangeable Shares have been exchanged for National-Oilwell common stock as of March 31, 1998. The Combination was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and the consolidated financial statements of National-Oilwell and Dreco have been combined with all prior periods restated to give effect to the Combination. Information concerning common stock and per share data has been restated on an equivalent share basis and assumes the exchange of all Exchangeable Shares. National-Oilwell has a year end of December 31 and, prior to the Combination, Dreco had a year end of August 31. The restated financial statements combine the December 31, 1996 balance sheet of National-Oilwell with the November 30, 1996 balance sheet of Dreco. The income statement reflects the combined three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the combination of the three months ended March 31, 1997 for National-Oilwell with the three months ended February 28, 1997 for Dreco. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Operating results (unaudited) by segment are as follows (in thousands): Quarter Ended March 31, -------------------------- 1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Revenues Products and Technology $ 148,034 $ 65,333 Downhole Products 17,810 15,710 Distribution Services 156,189 139,558 Eliminations (20,181) (13,931) ---------- ---------- Total $ 301,852 $ 206,670 ========== ========== Operating Income Products and Technology $ 25,128 $ 7,640 Downhole Products 6,263 6,138 Distribution Services 5,238 4,830 Eliminations (1,330) (1,912) ---------- ---------- Total $ 35,299 $ 16,696 ========== ========== 5 7 Products and Technology The Products and Technology segment designs and manufactures a large line of proprietary products, including drawworks, mud pumps, power swivels, electrical control systems and reciprocating pumps, as well as complete land drilling and well servicing rigs and structural components such as masts, derricks and substructures. A substantial installed base of these products results in a recurring replacement parts and maintenance business. Sales of new capital equipment can result in large fluctuations in volume between periods depending on the size and timing of the shipment of orders. This segment also provides drilling pump expendable products for maintenance of the Company's and other manufacturers' equipment. Revenues for the Products and Technology segment increased by $82.7 million (127%) in the first quarter of 1998 as compared to the same quarter in 1997 due to increased sales of major capital equipment and drilling spare parts. Sales of new mud pumps, masts, derricks and cranes were particularly strong, representing $24 million of the increase. Operating income increased by $17.5 million (229%) in the first quarter compared to the same quarter in 1997. Operating income as a percentage of revenues increased from 12% to 17%, primarily due to manufacturing and operating cost efficiencies that result from higher volumes. Backlog of the Products and Technology group has remained strong during the first quarter of 1998 and was $273 million at March 31, 1998, compared to $271 million at December 31, 1997 and $86 million at March 31, 1997. Substantially all of the current backlog will be shipped by the end of 1998. Downhole Products National-Oilwell designs and manufactures drilling motors and specialized drilling tools for rent and sale. Rentals generally involve products that are not economical for a customer to own or maintain because of the broad range of equipment required for the diverse hole sizes and depths encountered in drilling for oil and gas. Sales generally involve products that require infrequent service, are disposable or are sold in countries where National-Oilwell does not provide repair and maintenance services. Downhole Products revenues increased by $2.1 million (13%) in the first quarter of 1998 when compared to the same period in 1997, primarily due to a general increase in activity levels. Operating income for the Downhole Products segment increased slightly in the first quarter of 1998 compared to the same quarter in 1997, as additional depreciation charges offset the margin recognized on the incremental revenues. A change in product mix from motor spare parts to mechanical products further reduced operating income. Distribution Services Distribution Services revenues result primarily from the sale of MRO products from the Company's network of distribution service centers and from the sale of well casing and production tubing. These products are purchased from numerous manufacturers and vendors, including the Company's Products and Technology segment. Distribution Services revenues during the first quarter of 1998 exceeded the comparable 1997 period by $16.6 million. This 12% increase reflects the increased spending levels of the Company's tubular products alliance partners as sales of MRO products and other commodities remained flat. Operating income in the first quarter of 1998 was $0.4 million (8%) greater than the first quarter of 1997. 6 8 Corporate Corporate costs during the first quarter of 1998 were $0.6 million lower than the prior year primarily due to elimination of duplicate corporate costs that existed prior to the Combination. Interest Expense Interest expense decreased slightly during the three months ended March 31, 1998 due to both lower levels of debt and lower interest rates resulting from the credit facility entered into in conjunction with the Combination. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At March 31, 1998, the Company had working capital of $268 million, an increase of $16 million from December 31, 1997. Net cash provided by operating activities was $6 million, as a $22 million increase in inventories, primarily caused by increases in work in process and finished goods to support higher activity levels in the Products and Technology segment, used a significant portion of the cash generated from net income. Total capital expenditures were $4.9 million during the first three months of 1998. Enhancements to information and inventory control systems represent a large portion of these capital expenditures. The Company believes it has sufficient existing manufacturing capacity to meet currently anticipated demand through 1998 for its products and services. Any significantly greater increases in demand for oilfield equipment products, to the extent qualified subcontracting and outsourcing are not available, could result in additional increases in capital expenditures. The Company has a five-year unsecured $125 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") that is available for acquisitions and general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility provides for interest at prime or LIBOR plus 0.375% (8.5% and 6.03% at March 31,1998), subject to adjustment based on the Company's Capitalization Ratio, as defined. The Credit Facility contains financial covenants and ratios regarding minimum tangible net worth, maximum debt to capital and minimum interest coverage. The Company believes that cash generated from operations and amounts available under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund operations, working capital needs, capital expenditure requirements and financing obligations. The Company also believes any significant increase in capital expenditures caused by any need to increase manufacturing capacity can be funded from operations or through debt financing. The Company intends to pursue acquisition candidates, but the timing, size or success of any acquisition effort and the related potential capital commitments cannot be predicted. The Company expects to fund future cash acquisitions primarily with cash flow from operations and borrowings, including the unborrowed portion of the Credit Facility or new debt issuances. There can be no assurance that additional financing for acquisitions will be available at terms acceptable to the Company. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This document, other than historical financial information, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Such statements relate to the Company's revenues, sales of capital equipment, backlog, capacity, liquidity and capital resources and plans for acquisitions and any related financings.

Given these uncertainties, current or prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any obligation or intent to update any such factors or forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments. 7 9 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 6.
