Nine Energy Service Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Results

  • Full year 2023 revenue, net loss and adjusted EBITDAA of $609.5 million, $(32.2) million and $73.0 million, respectively
  • Revenue, net loss and adjusted EBITDA of $144.1 million, $(10.3) million and $14.6 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Increased total number of Stinger Dissolvable units sold by approximately 18% year- over-year
  • Increased international revenue by approximately 16% year-over-year

Nine Energy Service, Inc. ("Nine" or the "Company") (NYSE: NINE) reported fourth quarter 2023 revenues of $144.1 million, net loss of $(10.3) million, or $(0.30) per diluted share and $(0.30) per basic share, and adjusted EBITDA of $14.6 million. The Company had provided original fourth quarter 2023 revenue guidance between $137.0 and $147.0 million, with actual results coming within the provided range.

“Fourth quarter revenue was in-line with expectations, coming within the upper end of our original guidance,” said Ann Fox, President and Chief Executive Officer, Nine Energy Service.

“The oil and gas market continued to be volatile in 2023, with the US rig count declining by approximately 20% since the end of 2022. Many of these rig declines came out of the gassy basins in conjunction with the average natural gas price declining by over 60% year-over-year. 2023 once again illustrated that the market can shift quickly, which is why we have created a nimble business that can flex quickly with market conditions.”

“Despite a challenging market backdrop, the Nine team accomplished a lot in 2023, including our 2028 senior secured notes offering, extension of our ABL credit facility and full redemption of our prior senior notes due 2023. This new capital structure gives us additional flexibility and de-levering continues to be a high priority for Nine.”

“I am extremely proud of our completion tool offering and what we have been able to accomplish in 2023 with both our existing tools and the introduction of new tools in the domestic and international markets. We have surpassed over 370,000 Scorpion Composite Plugs run since we acquired the technology in 2015. Despite activity declines year-over-year, we increased the total number of Stinger Dissolvable units sold by approximately 18% and increased our total international revenue by approximately 16% year-over-year. We also introduced new technology with our Pincer Hybrid Frac Plug and look forward to gaining market share with this tool in 2024.”

“During 2023, we made significant progress with ESG, quantifying the Company’s greenhouse gas emissions for 2021 and 2022 and we will have 2023 data in 2024. We are identifying gaps and procedures to make the collection of this data more accurate and efficient, as well as developing a strategy on how to potentially reduce our emissions moving forward.”

“Turning to Q4, activity levels and pricing were mostly stable versus Q3. We had a significant increase in our international tools sales quarter-over-quarter, which helped drive strong incremental margins.”

“The market can change quickly, but I do not foresee any catalyst for activity increases in the near-term. Q1 activity levels and pricing have been mostly flat compared to Q4, in conjunction with the US rig count. Because of this, we expect Q1 revenue to be relatively flat compared with Q4.”

“We will continue to focus on our strategy of being an asset and labor light business that couples excellent service and forward-leaning technology to help our customers lower their cost to complete. Our team can navigate sharp market changes and quickly capitalize on improving markets. Our service and geographic diversity provides us balance and we are focused on diversifying more of our top-line revenue streams to completion tools and the international markets.”

(1) Amounts represent fees and expenses relating to our units offering and other refinancing activities, including cash incentive compensation to employees following the successful completion of the units offering, that were not capitalized.

 

(2) Previously, in our SEC filings, press releases and other investor materials issued prior to December 31, 2023, we referred to (a) Adjusted ROIC as ROIC and (b) adjusted after-tax net operating profit (loss) as after-tax net operating profit (loss). We have made no changes to the manner in which these measures are calculated and have only revised the titles of these measures to more clearly identify them as non-GAAP measures.

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 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 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.

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 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. Previously, in our SEC filings press releases and other investor materials issued prior to December 31, 2023, we referred to (a) Adjusted ROIC as ROIC and (b) adjusted after-tax net operating profit (loss) as after-tax net operating profit (loss). We have made no changes to the manner in which these measures are calculated and have only revised the titles of these measures to more clearly identify them as non-GAAP measures.
