Nine Energy Service Announces First Quarter 2022 Results

  • Total liquidity position of $74.6 million as of March 31, 2022
  • Revenue, net loss and adjusted EBITDAA of $116.9 million, $(6.9) million and $12.2 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2022
  • First quarter 2022 basic loss per share of $(0.23)

Nine Energy Service, Inc. ("Nine" or the "Company") (NYSE: NINE) reported first quarter 2022 revenues of $116.9 million, net loss of $(6.9) million and adjusted EBITDA of $12.2 million. For the first quarter 2022, adjusted net lossB was $(6.6) million, or $(0.22) adjusted basic loss per shareC.

The Company had provided original first quarter 2022 revenue guidance between $108.0 and $116.0 million, with actual results falling above the provided range and representing a sequential revenue increase of approximately 11% quarter over quarter.

“We had a strong growth quarter, with both activity and pricing improving over Q4 across the majority of our service lines,” said Ann Fox, President and Chief Executive Officer, Nine Energy Service.

“Overall, market activity did improve during Q1, with the average frac crew count increasing between 6-8% versus Q4. We saw activity increase across the majority of our service lines, with double-digit price increases in both cementing and coiled tubing. Cementing performed extremely well this quarter with revenue increasing by approximately 31% quarter over quarter versus the average U.S. rig count, which increased by approximately 13%. Our completion tool technology continues to perform well in the field, and we are excited about the continued interest in the dissolvable plug technology. ESG initiatives, including the recently proposed disclosure rules by the SEC, coupled with labor and equipment constraints, should continue to propel the adoption of dissolvable plugs.”

“The outlook for the remainder of 2022 and 2023 continues to be very positive. The oilfield service industry remains under-supplied from both an equipment and labor perspective and we anticipate this will continue to be a catalyst for further price increases for the remainder of the year; however, this will be coupled with cost inflation. We remain bullish on the outlook for the dissolvable plug market and its growth and expect revenue for all of our service lines to increase for Q2. With what we know today, we anticipate revenue and adjusted EBITDA to improve sequentially for Q2. With supportive commodity prices, U.S. shale will be an important supplier of natural gas and crude oil for the globe. We are well positioned with our geographic and service line diversity to grow earnings with relatively low capital requirements.”

Operating Results

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company reported revenues of $116.9 million, gross profit of $12.7 million and adjusted gross profitD of $22.6 million. Gross profit increased by approximately 169% quarter over quarter, and adjusted gross profit increased by approximately 52% quarter over quarter. During the first quarter, the Company generated ROICE of 2.1%.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company reported selling, general and administrative expense of $11.8 million, similar to $11.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Depreciation and amortization expense in the first quarter of 2022 was $10.4 million, compared to $10.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021.

The Company recognized income tax expense of approximately $112 thousand for the quarter, resulting in an effective tax rate of (1.7)% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The tax expense for 2022 is primarily the result of our tax position in state and foreign tax jurisdictions.

Liquidity and Capital Expenditures

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company reported net cash used in operating activities of $(6.5) million, compared to $(13.7) million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Capital expenditures totaled $2.4 million during the first quarter of 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, Nine’s cash and cash equivalents were $19.9 million, and the Company had $54.7 million of availability under the revolving credit facility, resulting in a total liquidity position of $74.6 million as of March 31, 2022. On March 31, 2022, the Company had $20.0 million of borrowings under the 2018 ABL Credit Facility and has subsequently borrowed an additional $7.0 million in April 2022.

AAdjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) loss or gain on revaluation of contingent liabilities, (iv) loss or gain on the extinguishment of debt, (v) loss or gain on the sale of subsidiaries, (vi) restructuring charges, (vii) stock-based compensation expense, (viii) loss or gain on sale of property and equipment, and (ix) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items which we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance of our business, such as legal expenses and settlement costs related to litigation outside the ordinary course of business. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure and helps identify underlying trends in our operations that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the impairments, acquisitions and dispositions and costs that are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business.

BAdjusted Net Income (Loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) restructuring charges, (iv) loss or gain on the sale of subsidiaries, (v) loss or gain on the extinguishment of debt and (vi) the tax impact of such adjustments. Management believes Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and helps identify underlying trends in our operations that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the impairments and acquisitions.

CAdjusted Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share is defined as adjusted net income (loss), divided by weighted average basic shares outstanding. Management believes Adjusted Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and help identify underlying trends in our operations that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the impairments and acquisitions.

DAdjusted Gross Profit (Loss) is defined as revenues less cost of revenues excluding depreciation and amortization. This measure differs from the GAAP definition of gross profit (loss) because we do not include the impact of depreciation and amortization, which represent non-cash expenses. Our management uses adjusted gross profit (loss) to evaluate operating performance. We prepare adjusted gross profit (loss) to eliminate the impact of depreciation and amortization because we do not consider depreciation and amortization indicative of our core operating performance.

EReturn on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) is defined as after-tax net operating profit (loss), divided by average total capital. We define after-tax net operating profit (loss) as net income (loss) plus (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) interest expense (income), (iv) restructuring charges, (v) loss (gain) on the sale of subsidiaries, (vi) loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, and (vii) the provision (benefit) for deferred income taxes. We define total capital as book value of equity plus the book value of debt less balance sheet cash and cash equivalents. We compute the average of the current and prior period-end total capital for use in this analysis. Management believes ROIC provides useful information because it quantifies how well we generate operating income relative to the capital we have invested in our business and illustrates the profitability of a business or project taking into account the capital invested.
