Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 2, 2023, Core Laboratories N.V. (“Core Lab” or the “Company”) held its Q4 2022 earnings call and webcast (the "Webcast") and made the Webcast available on its website. During the Webcast, management discussed the Company's intention to reorganize the Company's corporate structure, which will include the redomestication of the parent company from the Netherlands to the United States (the "Redomestication").

A copy of the transcript of the Webcast is set forth in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto.

The information in this Report and the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly stated by specific reference in such filing.

No Offer or Solicitation

 

This communication is not intended to and does not constitute an offer to sell, buy or exchange or the solicitation of an offer to sell, buy or exchange any securities or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction, nor shall there be any sale, purchase, or exchange of securities or solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law.

 

Important Information for Investors and Securityholders

 

In connection with the proposed corporate reorganization that includes, among other things, the Redomestication, Core Laboratories Luxembourg S.A., a predecessor to Core Lab Delaware, has filed a registration statement on Form S-4, which includes Core Lab Delaware’s prospectus as well as the Company’s proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company plans to mail the definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus to its shareholders in connection with the proposed corporate reorganization. INVESTORS AND SECURITYHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS AND OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED OR TO BE FILED WITH THE SEC CAREFULLY WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY, CORE LAB DELAWARE, THE CORPORATE REORGANIZATION AND RELATED MATTERS. Investors and securityholders will be able to obtain free copies of the definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus (when available) and other documents filed with the SEC by the Company through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov. In addition, investors and securityholders will be able to obtain free copies of the documents filed with the SEC on the Company website at www.corelab.com or by contacting the Company’s Corporate Secretary.

 

Participants in the Solicitation

 

The Company and certain of its directors, executive officers and employees may be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the proposed corporate reorganization. Information regarding the persons who may, under the rules of the SEC, be deemed participants in the solicitation of the securityholders of the Company in connection with the corporate reorganization, including a description of their respective direct or indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, will be included in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus described above when it is filed with the SEC. Additional information regarding the Company’s directors and executive officers is also included in the Company’s 2022 Proxy Statement, which was filed with the SEC on March 22, 2022. This document is available free of charge as described above.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This communication, as well as other statements we make, includes forward-looking statements made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of Federal securities law, including statements regarding: completion of the corporate reorganization that includes, among other things, the establishment of a new company domiciled in the U.S. and the timing and benefits thereof; the future revenue, profitability, business strategies and developments, including the Redomestication of the Company. These forward-looking statements are subject to various important cautionary factors, including: the ability to receive, in a timely manner and on satisfactory terms, required securityholder, stock exchange and court approvals; ability to achieve anticipated benefits of the corporate reorganization; publicity resulting from the reorganization and impacts to the company’s business and

 


 

share price; risks and uncertainties related to the oil and natural gas industry; business and general economic conditions, including inflationary pressures, the ability to achieve the benefits of the Redomestication, international markets, international political climates, including the Russia-Ukraine geopolitical conflict, public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic; and any related actions taken by businesses and governments, and other factors as more fully described in the Company’s most recent Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These important factors could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations of the Company’s performance and are subject to a variety of factors, some of which are not under the control of the Company. Because the information herein is based solely on data currently available, and because it is subject to change as a result of changes in conditions over which the Company has no control or influence, such forward-looking statements should not be viewed as assurance regarding the Company’s future performance.

 

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this communication, except as required by law.
