6. In May 1996 the Company renewed its line of credit agreement with certain banks. The new agreement provides for maximum borrowing of $50,000,000 at adjustable interest rates based on London Interbank Offered Rates (LIBOR). The borrowings will mature either in May of 1997 or May of 1998. A $40,000,000 portion of the line is for a 364 day term and a $10,000,000 portion is for a two year term. As of March 31, 1997, the Company had borrowed $3,000,000 against the line of credit, at a weighted average interest rate of 5.88%, and had letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $7,921,000, leaving an unused portion of $39,079,000. Under the line of credit agreement, the Company must meet certain requirements regarding levels of debt, net worth and earnings. The Company anticipates renewing the line of credit agreement with certain banks in May 1997 for maximum borrowing of $40 million. The Company has an additional $14.0 million line of credit with a bank to be used primarily for letters of credit.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MARCH 31, 1997
Business Environment and Risk Factors
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere herein. The Company's future operating results may be affected by various trends and factors which are beyond the Company's control. These include, among other factors, fluctuations in natural gas prices, expiration or termination of drilling contracts, changes in general economic conditions, rapid or unexpected changes in technologies and uncertain business conditions that affect the Company's businesses. Accordingly, past results and trends should not be used by investors to anticipate future results or trends.
With the exception of historical information, the matters discussed below under the headings "Results of Operations" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company wishes to caution readers that a number of important factors discussed in this report and in the Company's other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, could affect the Company's actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.
Results of Operations
The Company reported net income of $22,418,000 ($0.90 per share) from revenues of $132,479,000 for the second quarter ended March 31, 1997, compared with net income of $11,027,000 ($0.45 per share) from revenues of $95,213,000 for the second quarter of the prior fiscal year. Net income for the first six months of this fiscal year totaled $42,543,000 ($1.71 per share) from revenues of $250,741,000, compared with net income of $22,120,000 ($0.90 per share) from revenues of $183,640,000 for the same period last year.
The Company's Exploration and Production Division reported operating profit of $20,196,000 and $38,470,000 for the second quarter and six months ended March 31, 1997, respectively, compared with operating profit of $4,690,000 and $8,765,000 for the same periods in fiscal 1996.
I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
HELMERICH & PAYNE, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MARCH 31, 1997
(Continued)
The increase in operating profit was primarily the result of continued strength in natural gas prices through most of the second quarter and increased natural gas volumes. Natural gas prices for the second quarter and first six months of 1997 averaged $2.65 per mcf and $2.56 per mcf, respectively, compared with $1.72 per mcf and $1.62 per mcf in the same periods of 1996. Natural gas volumes for the first six months of 1997 were 111.0 mmcf/day compared with 89.5 mmcf/day for the first six months of 1996. Oil prices for the second quarter and first six months of 1997 averaged $21.86 and $22.64, respectively, compared with $18.24 and $17.34, in the same periods of 1996. Average oil production increased to 2,798 barrels per day for the first six months of fiscal 1997, compared with 2,199 barrels per day in the same period of 1996. Dry hole expense for the first six months of 1997 was $1,931,000 compared with $2,435,000 for the first six months of 1996.
The Contract Drilling Division reported an operating profit of $24,990,000 in the first six months of fiscal year 1997, compared with $20,885,000 in the same period of 1996. Operating profit from the domestic drilling operations increased to $9,165,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1997, compared with $4,691,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1996. Increased utilization of land rigs (revenue days increased 23% from the first six months of 1996) and increased day rates for land rigs contributed to the increased operating profit. Also contributing substantially to earnings was the new Mars offshore platform rig which began drilling in the third quarter of fiscal 1996. Two additional rigs will commence operations for Shell Offshore Inc. in the third quarter of fiscal year 1997. The Company expects this will have a positive impact on domestic operating profit for the last six months of fiscal 1997.
Operating profit from the Company's international drilling operations decreased to $15,825,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1997 from $16,194,000 in the same period last year. The first six months of fiscal 1996 included foreign currency transaction gains in Venezuela of $500,000. No such gains were realized in the first six months of fiscal 1997. Utilization of the 37 international rigs was 90% during the second quarter of 1997 compared with 86% during the same quarter of 1996.
The Company's Real Estate Division increased operating profit to $3,069,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1997 from $2,644,000 in the same period of fiscal 1996. The increase was primarily due to a gain on the sale of a small parcel of land during the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

MARCH 31, 1997
(Continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by continuing operations was $69,878,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1997, compared with $64,414,000 for the same period in 1996. Capital expenditures were $63,337,000 and $55,423,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively.
It is anticipated for fiscal 1997 that capital expenditures could possibly exceed internally generated cash flows and that the Company will borrow under its line of credit agreement or sell a portion of its investment portfolio to fund capital expenditures.
There were no significant changes in the Company's financial position since September 30, 1996.
