Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Sentiment|Negative
The call reported meaningful operational and seasonal headwinds: sequential revenue declines across most service lines, margin compression (adjusted EBITDA decline and a 230 bp margin contraction), higher SG&A as a percent of revenue, an accounting change increasing cost of revenues, and lost activity from winter storms and idled fleets. Offsetting factors include a strong balance sheet (≈$210M cash, no revolver borrowings), positive adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, ongoing product innovation (A-10 motor, Metal Max, UnPlug) driving share gains, and selective service-line strength (snubbing +13%, Cudd Pressure Control +1%). Overall, negatives around revenue, margins and near-term activity visibility outweigh the positives from liquidity, product wins and disciplined capital allocation.Company Guidance
Strong liquidity and cash generation
Quarter-end cash of approximately $210 million, no borrowings on $100 million revolver, $50 million seller-finance note payable; operating cash flow of $201.3 million and free cash flow of $52.9 million in FY2025; continued dividend payments totaling $35.1 million YTD (including $8.8 million in Q4).
Product innovation and market share gains in Thru Tubing
Successful rollout of A-10 downhole motor and ongoing expansion of Metal Max power section have driven incremental share gains and allowed expansion into new markets; UnPlug technology adoption steadily increasing, reducing need for bridge plugs and improving drill-out times.
Selective service-line outperformance
Cudd Pressure Control revenues up 1% sequentially with snubbing up 13% and coiled-tubing new 2 7/8-inch unit well utilized; increases in Spinnaker cementing and Patterson Tubular Services storage & inspection businesses noted.
Positive adjusted profitability despite headwinds
Adjusted EBITDA remained positive at $55.1 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.04 for the quarter, demonstrating ongoing underlying profitability even with sequential declines.
Balance-sheet flexibility and disciplined capital allocation
Full-year capex of $148 million focused on maintenance and selective investments; change in wireline accounting reduced reported CapEx; 2026 capex guidance of $150–$180 million with management emphasizing scrutiny and the ability to adjust spend based on activity; M&A and buybacks remain optional uses of capital.
