Forum Energy Technologies Announces Third Quarter 2019 Results

HOUSTON

Revenue of $239 million
Net loss of $533 million and diluted EPS of $(4.83)
Adjusted EBITDA of $22 million
Cash flow from operations of $35 million and free cash flow after capital expenditures of $32 million
Net debt reduced by $70 million

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FET) today announced third quarter 2019 revenue of $239 million, a decrease of $6 million from the second quarter 2019. Net loss for the quarter was $533 million, or $4.83 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $14 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2019. Excluding $535 million, or $4.85 per share of special items, adjusted net income was $0.02 per diluted share in the third quarter 2019 compared to adjusted net loss of $0.08 per diluted share in the second quarter 2019. Forum generated $22 million of adjusted EBITDA in the quarter, a sequential improvement of approximately $4 million on slightly reduced revenue.

Special items in the third quarter 2019 included $532 million of pretax charges related to impairments of goodwill, intangibles, and fixed assets. These charges bring Forum’s book value of equity more in line with the current market value. See Tables 1-5 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.

Cris Gaut, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, “Despite challenging market conditions, Forum continues to execute on our business strategy of achieving strong free cash flow, reducing net debt and inventory levels, and growing our market share through our portfolio of winning products. Free cash flow was $32 million in the third quarter, another sequential improvement and the fourth successive quarter of strong free cash flow. Over the past twelve months, we have generated $86 million of free cash flow, representing a greater than 50% annualized free cash yield on our current equity market capitalization. We decreased our net inventory position by $26 million in the quarter, in line with our expectations. We also closed the previously announced disposition of our interest in Ashtead, which generated an additional $39 million of cash proceeds that we used to repay debt. We ended the quarter with net debt of approximately $372 million and total liquidity of $308 million, including an undrawn revolver. We expect to continue to generate strong free cash flow in the fourth quarter.

“Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, we expect a continued decrease in drilling and completions activity in the U.S. onshore market, driven by E&P budget exhaustion and capital discipline. We expect this to result in lower operating results for Forum, as our service company customers are stacking equipment, reducing spending, and deferring maintenance. During this pause in spending by our customers, which we view as temporary and unsustainable, we will focus on generating free cash flow and managing for cost efficiency. In addition, we will foster the recovery in the international and offshore markets through our global sales and distribution network."

Segment Results

Drilling & Downhole segment revenue was $88 million, an increase of $6 million, or 7%, from the second quarter 2019, due to higher deliveries of capital equipment for international markets. Orders in the third quarter were $80 million, a 2% increase from the second quarter. Segment EBITDA increased 57% to $12 million due to higher international sales and cost efficiencies. Drilling & Downhole operations focus primarily on manufactured equipment and consumable products for global drilling, well construction, artificial lift and subsea construction and services markets.

Completions segment revenue was $71 million, a decrease of $11 million, or 13% sequentially, due to lower sales of pressure pumping products. Orders in the third quarter were $65 million, a decrease of $6 million, or 9% from the second quarter 2019, due to lower orders of stimulation products, as the pressure pumping services companies continue cannibalizing their idle fleets and destocking their consumables. The Completions segment designs and manufactures products for the completion, stimulation and intervention markets.

Production segment revenue was $81 million, a decrease of $2 million, or 3% from the second quarter 2019, due to lower sales of surface production equipment. Orders in the third quarter were $55 million, a 27% decrease sequentially, due to deferred order placement for surface production equipment as operators slow their completion activity. In addition, our valve distribution customers placed fewer orders consistent with their destocking strategy. The Production segment manufactures land well site production equipment, desalination refinery equipment, and a wide range of valves for the upstream, midstream and process industry customers.

Subsequent Events

In the Production Equipment product line, we have approximately $20 million in firm orders or letters of intent, much of that for process equipment for international markets.

Forum Subsea Technologies received another order for a workclass ROV and related equipment for non-oil and gas activity.

Total book to bill ratio	0.83			1.03			0.91

⁽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.

(1) 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.

(2) The difference between the fair value of our interest in Ashtead and the book value of the underlying net assets resulted in a basis difference non-operating gain, which was allocated to fixed assets, intangible assets and goodwill based on their respective fair values as of the transaction date. This amount represents the amortization of the basis difference gain associated with intangible assets and property, plant and equipment which is included in equity earnings (loss) over the estimated life of the respective assets.

(3) 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.
