Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation were $48.7m, up from last year's $23.6m.
As part of the restructuring, its facility at Velsen-Noord in the Netherlands will be closed and activities in the country will be merged into a single location, Hunting said.
Its operating segment Hunting Titan had started the closure of its Oklahoma City operating site and would transfer the manufacturing of perforating systems to the group's Pampa, US and Mexico facilities.
