Helmerich & Payne Couldn't Get Over the Profit Hurdle Last Quarter
As great as 2017 has been for the shale oil sector, with growing production that put rigs and other drilling equipment back online, and crews back to work, that hasn't necessarily translated to profit growth for equipment and service providers like Helmerich & Payne (NYSE: HP).

Here's a look at the good and bad points from the company's most recent earnings report, and what investors can expect from here.
