Forum Energy Technologies Announces First Quarter 2021 Results

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FET) today announced first quarter 2021 revenue of $115 million, an increase of $2 million from the fourth quarter 2020. Net loss for the quarter was $30 million, or $5.28 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $33 million, or $5.85 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter 2020. Excluding $8 million, or $1.33 per share of special items, adjusted net loss was $3.95 per diluted share in the first quarter 2021, compared to an adjusted net loss of $4.80 per diluted share in the fourth quarter 2020. Adjusted EBITDA was $2 million in the first quarter 2021, an improvement of approximately $5 million from the fourth quarter 2020.

Special items in the first quarter 2021, on a pre-tax basis, included $4 million of foreign exchange losses, $3 million of restructuring and other charges, and a $1 million loss on extinguishment of debt. See Tables 1-3 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.

Cris Gaut, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, “Strengthening drilling and completion activity and our restructuring efforts resulted in financial performance that exceeded first quarter expectations. The best indicator of FET's future results is our inbound order flow. On a pro forma basis, excluding the divested ABZ and Quadrant valve brands from fourth quarter 2020 results for better comparability, inbound orders increased sequentially by approximately $24 million, or 21%, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio above 1.2, the highest level we have seen since the fourth quarter 2016. Demand for our short-cycle consumable and maintenance goods are increasing at an even higher rate, as demonstrated by the more than 50% increase in orders for our Completions segment. Quoting activity for our capital equipment is increasing, which we expect will have a greater impact in future periods.

“Our portfolio restructuring efforts contributed meaningfully to our results. FET revenue increased sequentially by approximately $10 million, or 10%, and EBITDA increased by $7 million, both pro forma for the fourth quarter 2020 divestiture. The excellent incremental EBITDA margins experienced in the first quarter demonstrate the operating leverage we now have. We expect our focus on higher margin, differentiated products and operating leverage to further enhance our operating results as 2021 activity levels continue to improve.

“Given the increase in U.S. rig count that has already occurred in the second quarter and activity increases in international and non-oil and gas markets, our guide for second quarter revenue is between $125 and $135 million and EBITDA between $6 and $8 million. Based on the order flow we are receiving, we expect further revenue and EBITDA improvement in the second half 2021.

“Our efforts to improve our capital structure continue as we ended the first quarter 2021 with $300 million principal amount of debt outstanding and net debt of $199 million, a $137 million decrease over the last twelve months.

“I am pleased with the way our employees have continued to respond to the dynamic market conditions and I am confident that FET is well-positioned to take advantage of the increasing market opportunities.”

Segment Results

Drilling & Downhole segment revenue was $49 million and orders were $58 million, a decrease of 2% and an increase of 1%, respectively, from the fourth quarter 2020. The revenue decline was due to the timing of drilling capital equipment shipments to international customers. Higher demand for well construction products and drilling consumable products in connection with increasing drilling activity mostly offset this decline. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $3 million, a $2 million sequential increase, resulting primarily from a more favorable revenue mix and cost reductions. Drilling & Downhole operations focus primarily on capital equipment and consumable products for global drilling, well construction, artificial lift and subsea markets.

Completions segment revenue was $38 million, a sequential increase of $7 million, or 24%, due to a sharp increase in well completions activity in the first quarter 2021. Orders in the first quarter were $47 million, an increase of $17 million, or 56%, from the fourth quarter 2020. The first quarter 2021 book-to-bill ratio was 1.25, driven by strong demand from our pressure pumping service customers. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $5 million, up $4 million from the fourth quarter due to manufacturing efficiencies from higher sales volumes and continued cost management. The Completions segment designs and manufactures products for the coiled tubing, stimulation and intervention markets.

Production segment revenue was $28 million, a decrease of $5 million, or 14% from the fourth quarter 2020. Orders in the first quarter were $33 million, a 9% decrease sequentially. These results reflect a $9 million decrease in revenue and a $10 million decrease in orders due to the divestiture of our ABZ and Quadrant valve brands at the end of 2020. Excluding the impact of this divestiture, revenue and orders increased by $4 million and $7 million, respectively, driven by higher demand for valve products for the midstream and upstream markets and higher revenue recognized on international projects for desalination process equipment. Segment adjusted EBITDA was negative $1 million, a $1 million sequential decline as reported and a $1 million sequential increase pro forma for the disposition of the ABZ and Quadrant valve brands. The loss of gross margin from the divested valve brands was mostly offset by higher revenue from other products in the Production segment and cost reductions from restructuring actions implemented over the past two quarters. The Production segment manufactures land well site production equipment, desalination process equipment, and a wide range of valves for upstream, midstream and process industry customers.

In addition, EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.

(1)

The book-to-bill ratio is calculated by dividing the dollar value of orders received in a given period by the revenue earned in that same period. The Company believes that this ratio is useful to investors because it provides an indication of whether the demand for our products, in the markets in which the Company operates, is strengthening or declining. A ratio of greater than one is indicative of improving market demand, while a ratio of less than one would suggest weakening demand. In addition, the Company believes the book-to-bill ratio provides more meaningful insight into future revenues for our business than other measures, such as order backlog, because the majority of the Company's products are activity based consumable items or shorter cycle capital equipment, neither of which are typically ordered by customers far in advance.

The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS are useful to the Company's investors because (i) each of these financial metrics are useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the Company's normal operating results and (ii) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the Company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, these benchmarks are widely used in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.

Foreign exchange, net primarily relates to cash and receivables denominated in U.S. dollars by some of our non-U.S. subsidiaries that report in a local currency, and therefore the loss has no economic impact in dollar terms.
