MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The management of Halliburton Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control
over financial reporting as defined in the Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f).
Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Therefore, even those
systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and
presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary
over time.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief
financial officer, we conducted an evaluation to assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2013 based upon criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of December 31,
2013, our internal control over financial reporting is effective.
The effectiveness of Halliburton’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 has been audited
by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report that is included herein.
