Nine Energy Service Announces Second Quarter 2024 Results

  • Revenue, net loss and adjusted EBITDAA of $132.4 million, $(14.0) million and $9.7 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2024
  • Total liquidity as of June 30, 2024 of $50.8 million
  • Updated 2024 full-year capex guidance of $10 - $15 million
  • During Q2, surpassed 300 total refrac jobs run to-date

Nine Energy Service, Inc. ("Nine" or the "Company") (NYSE: NINE) reported second quarter 2024 revenues of $132.4 million, net loss of $(14.0) million, or $(0.40) per diluted share and $(0.40) per basic share, and adjusted EBITDA of $9.7 million. The Company had provided original second quarter 2024 revenue guidance between $130.0 and $140.0 million, with actual results coming within the provided range.

“The US rig count continued to decline during Q2, which impacted both our revenue and earnings. Since the end of 2023, over 40 additional rigs have come out of the market, following a year in which we had 150 rigs exit. As a spot-market business, our revenue and earnings are correlated closely with the US rig count,” said Ann Fox, President and Chief Executive Officer, Nine Energy Service.

“As anticipated, cementing revenue was down slightly in Q2. This service line has been significantly impacted by the continued rig decline. However, historically the cementing business recovers rapidly with the market and is one of our most differentiated service lines. Completion tool revenue was down single digits this quarter, due to a reduction in US market activity and lower international tool sales. Growing our international tools business continues to be an important part of our long-term strategy but will continue to be lumpy in the near-term. We had a strong quarter within our US refrac business, surpassing over 300 jobs run to-date and establishing ourselves as one of the top providers in the US. Coiled tubing revenue was down due to whitespace in the Permian, as well as sustained lower activity levels in the Haynesville. Despite a tough market and a difficult competitive landscape, wireline maintained flat revenue this quarter and continues to differentiate through superior service quality and wellsite execution.

“Q2 was a challenging quarter with natural gas prices averaging below $2.15 for the first half of 2024, leading to lower activity levels and increased whitespace across all basins. Thus far, the rig count in Q3 has been relatively flat since the end of Q2 and activity and pricing levels are mostly stable. Because of this, we expect Q3 revenue and profitability to be relatively flat compared with Q2.

“It is extremely difficult to predict commodity prices, but the oil markets have remained mostly stable, and we do remain positive on the medium and long-term outlook for the gas markets. Nine’s exposure to the gas markets provide a significant catalyst for growth if natural gas prices recover. We have weathered difficult markets before and have maintained a strong team across service lines and basins. Our asset-light business model allows us to shift quickly with the market, while not impeding the quality of the business. We are prepared and experienced in capitalizing on a growing market and believe we are differentiated in our service and technology offerings.”

Operating Results

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company reported revenues of $132.4 million, gross profit of $11.4 million and adjusted gross profitB of $20.4 million. During the second quarter, the Company generated ROIC of (19.5)% and adjusted ROICC of (1.5)%.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company reported general and administrative (“G&A”) expense of $12.5 million. Depreciation and amortization expense ("D&A") in the second quarter of 2024 was $9.4 million.

The Company’s tax provision was approximately $0.3 million year to date. The provision for 2024 is the result of our tax position in state and non-U.S. tax jurisdictions.

Liquidity and Capital Expenditures

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company reported net cash provided by operating activities of $12.9 million. Capital expenditures totaled $2.5 million during the second quarter of 2024 and totaled $8.1 million for the first half of 2024. The Company had previously provided full-year 2024 capex guidance of $15 to $25 million, which has been reduced to $10 to $15 million.

As of June 30, 2024, Nine’s cash and cash equivalents were $26.0 million, and the Company had $24.8 million of availability under the revolving credit facility, resulting in a total liquidity position of $50.8 million as of June 30, 2024. On June 30, 2024, the Company had $52.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility. On July 29, 2024, the Company borrowed an additional $3.0 million under the revolving credit facility.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company sold approximately 4.2 million shares of common stock under its at-the-market equity offering program, which generated approximately $6.8 million in net proceeds.

AAdjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (which is 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) fees and expenses relating to our units offering and other refinancing activities, (iv) loss or gain on revaluation of contingent liabilities, (v) loss or gain on the extinguishment of debt, (vi) loss or gain on the sale of subsidiaries, (vii) restructuring charges, (viii) stock-based compensation and cash award expense, (ix) loss or gain on sale of property and equipment, and (x) 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 provides useful information to us and our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it allows us and them 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 impairments, acquisitions and dispositions and costs that are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business.

BAdjusted 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 believes adjusted gross profit (loss) provides useful information to us and our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operation and helps management evaluate our operating performance by eliminating the impact of depreciation and amortization, which we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance.

CAdjusted return on invested capital (“adjusted ROIC”) is defined as adjusted after-tax net operating profit (loss), divided by average total capital. We define adjusted after-tax net operating profit (loss), which is a non-GAAP measure, 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) fees and expenses relating to our units offering and other refinancing activities, (iv) interest expense (income), (v) restructuring charges, (vi) loss (gain) on the sale of subsidiaries, (vii) loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, and (viii) the provision (benefit) for deferred income taxes. We define total capital as book value of equity (deficit) plus the book value of debt less balance sheet cash and cash equivalents. We compute and use the average of the current and prior period-end total capital in determining adjusted ROIC. Management believes adjusted ROIC provides useful information to us and our investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations 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, and management uses adjusted ROIC to assist them in capital resource allocation decisions and in evaluating business performance.
