HOUSTON, August 5, 2019 – NCS Multistage Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: NCSM) (the “Company,” “NCS,” “we” or “us”), a leading provider of highly engineered products and support services that facilitate the optimization of oil and natural gas well completions and field development strategies, today announced its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.
Financial Review
Revenues were $39.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, which was a decrease of 8% compared to the second quarter of 2018. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower volumes of fracturing systems product sales and services in the U.S. and Canada, and lower tracer diagnostics revenue in the United States. The decrease was partially offset by increased sales of our well construction and Repeat Precision, LLC (“Repeat Precision”) products. Total revenues decreased by 25% as compared to the first quarter of 2019 with decreases of 54% in Canada and 39% outside of North America partially offset by an increase of 6% in the United States.
Gross profit, which we define as total revenues less total cost of sales exclusive of depreciation and amortization, was $16.7 million, or 42% of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease compared to $23.5 million, or 54% of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2018. Cost of sales was a higher percentage of revenues due to reduced fixed cost utilization related to lower sales volumes for fracturing systems product sales and services, especially in the U.S. and Canada, higher-than-anticipated use of third-party machining capacity, reductions in the pricing of our products and services, and higher cost of sales in tracer diagnostics, related to field service staffing levels and increased chemical costs associated with tariffs imposed on certain imports from China in September 2018. These increases were partially offset by increased sales of well construction and Repeat Precision products, which enabled better utilization of fixed costs.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased in the second quarter as compared to the prior year due to increases in personnel, higher professional services expenses, including litigation expenses and support for our new enterprise resource planning system, higher share-based compensation expense and an increase in bad debt expense, partially offset by a reduction in accrued bonus expense and other professional services.
During the second quarter of 2019, we performed an impairment test for goodwill and determined that the carrying value of one of our reporting units exceeded its fair value. We recorded an impairment charge of $7.9 million for our tracer diagnostic services reporting unit as a result of a further deterioration in customer activity levels in North America. This resulted in lower demand for oilfield services driving a decrease in our market share and increased customer and competitor-driven pricing pressures in addition to a decline in the quoted price of our common stock. Following the impairment, our tracer diagnostic services reporting unit has no remaining goodwill balance. There was no indication an impairment may have occurred in any other reporting unit.
Net loss was $(22.3) million, or $(0.48) per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, which included a net impact of $8.2 million (after tax effect of $17.1 million, or $0.37 per diluted share) related to an impairment charge and realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses. The income tax adjustment was significantly affected by the income tax valuation allowance recorded to reduce the carrying value of our U.S. deferred tax asset and the tax effect of a non-deductible goodwill impairment. Adjusted net loss, which excludes these items, was $(5.2) million, or $(0.11) per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. This compares to a net loss of $(4.1) million, or $(0.09) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2018, which included a net expense
1
of $0.1 million ($0.1 million after tax, or $0.00 per diluted share) related to the change in fair value of contingent consideration and realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses. Adjusted net loss, which excludes these items, was $(4.0) million, or $(0.09) per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.0) million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $(6.4) million as compared to the second quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the quarter was (3%), as compared to 12% for the second quarter of 2018.
Capital Expenditures and Liquidity
The Company incurred capital expenditures of $1.3 million, net, for the second quarter of 2019 and $4.1 million, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
As of June 30, 2019, the Company had $12.2 million in cash, total potential availability under its revolving credit facility of $59.0 million and $19.5 million in total debt. During the second quarter, the Company reduced its total debt by $6.5 million, including a $4.0 million reduction in its revolving credit facility balance.
Cost Reduction Initiatives
The Company is implementing cost reduction initiatives in response to continuing decreases in current and expected customer activity levels in North America. In July 2019, we reduced our employee workforce by approximately six percent. In connection with the workforce reduction, we expect to incur one-time severance costs between $0.6 million to $0.7 million, which will be reflected in our consolidated statements of operations under SG&A in the third quarter.
NCS’s Chief Executive Officer, Robert Nipper, commented, “We continue to face a challenging market environment in our primary operating areas in the U.S. and Canada. We were able to deliver total revenue in the quarter that met the high end of the $35 - $40 million range that we guided for this quarter on our last earnings call, primarily due to continued market share gains in Canada and strong performance in our Repeat Precision joint venture.
We experienced meaningful pressure on our gross margin during the quarter, reflecting continued customer and competitor driven pricing pressure, the underutilization of fixed field service personnel and other costs during a seasonally slower quarter, higher-than-anticipated use of third-party machining capacity, and expenses incurred in advance of specific customer opportunities that we expect to contribute to revenue in the second half of the year. In addition, our SG&A costs in the second quarter were approximately in line with the first quarter, but higher than the second quarter of 2018.
We continue to expect that capital spending, drilling and completions activity for our U.S. customers will be lower than last year, and that activity will continue to decline from current levels in the second half of the year. Customer activity in Canada continues to be materially lower on a year-over year basis, with the average rig count lower by 32% on a year-to-date basis through the end of July. We believe that operating activity in Canada is likely to remain significantly below historical averages until additional oil and natural gas pipeline capacity is placed into service.
In response to these challenging market conditions, which we expect to persist into the foreseeable future, we are implementing cost reduction initiatives, and in July reduced our headcount by approximately 6% and implemented salary reductions for certain executives. We believe that these actions will result in an immediate pre-tax annualized cost reduction of approximately $5.0 million, which will primarily be reflected in SG&A. We will continue to evaluate other opportunities to further reduce our spending, which we expect to implement in the coming quarters. As part of the reduction in workforce, we have also made changes to our reporting structure, which we believe will position us to be more responsive to changes in the market environment and accelerate new product development.
I’m very proud of my co-workers at NCS who continue to deliver exemplary operational performance and customer service and who contributed to our highlights during the quarter, including:
· |
Our seventh straight quarter of sequential revenue growth in product sales in the U.S.; |
· |
Strong performance at Repeat Precision, including further market penetration of our Purple Seal Express integrated frac plug and setting tool system and initial sales of our RP 10 and RP 20 single-use, disposable setting tools; |
· |
Additional market share gains in Canada, evidenced by our revenue performance with a year-over-year revenue decline of 17%, outperforming a comparable rig count decline of 24%; and |
· |
Zero recordable incidents through the first half of 2019, highlighting our commitment to safety. |
We are executing on the key components of our strategy, which includes leveraging the full suite of our product and service offering across our geographic markets, commercializing new technologies that help our customers save money and operate more efficiently and making disciplined investments that will enable us to leverage our capital-light business model to generate free cash flow, enhance our balance sheet and improve financial returns.
2
At the same time, we are focused on controlling the items that we can manage, including the cost reduction initiatives and our capital spending, which we now expect to be between $7.0 to $10.0 million in 2019, the midpoint of which is $2.5 million below the range we guided to at the beginning of the year and approximately 45% below our capital spending in 2018.
We are focused on providing our customers with the products and services that will enable them to succeed, which will in turn allow us to generate value for our shareholders. Taking actions like those we did in July are never easy, and I want to thank all of my co-workers at NCS and Repeat Precision – in my view the best team in our industry – for their incredible efforts and support of our strategy.”

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(In thousands, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income before interest expense, net, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted to exclude certain items which we believe are not reflective of ongoing operating performance or which, in the case of an impairment and share-based compensation, are non-cash in nature. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA Less Share-Based Compensation is defined as Adjusted EBITDA minus share-based compensation expense. Adjusted Net (Loss) Income is defined as net (loss) income attributable to NCS Multistage Holdings, Inc. adjusted to exclude certain items which we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance. Adjusted Net (Loss) Earnings per Diluted Share is defined as Adjusted Net (Loss) Income divided by our diluted weighted average common shares outstanding during the relevant period. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property and equipment (inclusive of the purchase and development of software and technology) plus proceeds from sales of property and equipment, as presented in our consolidated statement of cash flows. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Net (Loss) Earnings per Diluted Share are important measures that exclude costs that management believes do not reflect our ongoing operating performance and, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, certain costs associated with our capital structure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA Less Share-Based Compensation presents our financial performance in a manner that is comparable to the presentation provided by many of our peers. We believe free cash flow is useful because it provides information to investors regarding the cash that was available in the period that was in excess of our needs to fund our capital expenditures and other investment needs. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA Less Share-Based Compensation, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income, Adjusted Net (Loss) Earnings per Diluted Share and Free Cash Flow are key metrics that management uses to assess the period-to-period performance of our core business operations. We believe that presenting Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA Less Share-Based Compensation, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Net (Loss) Earnings per Diluted Share enables investors to assess our performance from period to period using the same metrics utilized by management and that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA Less Share-Based Compensation, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Net (Loss) Earnings per Diluted Share enable investors to evaluate our performance relative to other companies that are not subject to such factors.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA Less Share-Based Compensation, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income, Adjusted Net (Loss) Earnings per Diluted Share and Free Cash Flow (our “non-GAAP financial measures”) are not defined under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), are not measures of net income, income from operations, cash provided by operating activities or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and are subject to important limitations. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in our industry and are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial performance as reported under GAAP and they should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), cash provided by operating activities or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as measures of our liquidity.
The tables below set forth reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measure of financial performance calculated under GAAP:
