May 7, 2019 - Houston, Texas - Frank’s International N.V. (NYSE: FI) (the “Company” or “Frank’s”) today reported financial and operational results for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

First Quarter 2019 Financial Highlights


•	Generated total revenue of $144.4 million, down 1.0% from $145.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 and up 25.0% from $115.6 million for the first quarter of 2018.


•	Reported a net loss of $28.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $15.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018 and a net loss of $42.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2018.

•

Adjusted net loss was $27.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, excluding severance and other charges, net of tax, as compared to an adjusted net loss of $14.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2018, excluding severance and other charges, net of tax. For the first quarter of 2018, the Company reported an adjusted net loss of $41.0 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, excluding severance and other charges, net of tax, and mergers and acquisition expense, net of tax.


•	Adjusted EBITDA was $9.7 million as compared to $12.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 and was significantly higher than a loss of $2.2 million for the first quarter of 2018. The increase in adjusted EBITDA from the first quarter of 2018 reflected an incremental year-over-year margin improvement of 41.0%.

“Our strong first quarter revenue was due to the highest level of sales for our Cementing Equipment segment since the acquisition of Blackhawk, driven by increased product sales in the North American offshore markets and onshore in the U.S. In addition, our Tubular Running Services segment saw continued strength in Africa, the Caribbean, U.S. onshore and certain other markets. Finally, we announced last week the reorganization of our company into three new segments, aligning financial reporting with management structure to drive accountability, streamline decision-making and better leverage the Company’s global infrastructure. We look forward to fully capitalizing on the numerous advantages afforded by our improved structure as we move through the remainder of the year,” said Michael Kearney, the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“Our full year 2019 view for significant revenue growth and increased margins across all of our business segments remains unchanged,” concluded Mr. Kearney. “We anticipate the majority of the improvement to come from our international operations followed by North America offshore. Supporting our efforts is the accelerating acceptance of our unique product and service offerings that are designed to solve our customers’

complex drilling and completion challenges. We will continue to closely collaborate with our customers and appreciate their ongoing confidence and support.”

Financial measures not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) are defined and reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measures below. Please see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliations to the nearest comparable GAAP measures.

Segment Results

During 2018, changes to the Company’s organizational structure were internally announced. These changes allow each segment to operate as an “independent” business in order to drive accountability and streamline decision-making, while leveraging the advantages of the Company’s global infrastructure. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company’s chief operating decision maker changed the information he regularly reviews to allocate resources and assess performance and the Company accordingly realigned its reporting segments into three reportable segments: Tubular Running Services (“TRS”) segment, Tubulars segment and Cementing Equipment (“CE”) segment. The TRS segment represents the prior International Services and U.S. Services segments, as well as the costs associated with manufacturing the TRS equipment. Corporate costs that were previously included in the International Services and U.S. Services segments are now included in a separate Corporate component. The Tubulars segment represents the prior Tubular Sales segment and the drilling tools business which was previously included within the International Services and U.S. Services segments. The costs associated with TRS manufacturing are now reflected in the TRS segment, rather than Tubulars. The CE segment is comprised of the prior Blackhawk segment. In addition, regional support costs that were previously included in the International Services and U.S. Services segments are now allocated amongst the three current segments, generally based on revenue or headcount. Segment reporting has been revised to reflect the current management approach and prior periods have been recast to conform to the current segment presentation.

Tubular Running Services

Tubular Running Services revenue was $98.1 million for the first quarter of 2019, as compared to $100.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 and $78.9 million for the first quarter of 2018. The decline in sequential revenue was primarily driven by the anticipated decrease in well completions in the Gulf of Mexico. Partially offsetting the decrease was increased customer activity in Africa, the Caribbean, Mexico and South America, as well as continued growth in the U.S. onshore business despite a declining rig count. The first quarter of 2019 reflects the eleventh consecutive quarter of growth for the U.S. onshore TRS business.

Segment adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2019 was $17.7 million, or 18.1% of revenue, as compared to $21.6 million, or 21.5% of revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2018 and $4.9 million, or 6.3% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2018. The decrease in sequential adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2019 was primarily a result of the timing of manufacturing costs and increased repair and maintenance expenses.

Tubulars

Tubulars revenue for the first quarter of 2019 was $18.7 million, as compared to $22.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, and $17.7 million for the first quarter of 2018. Primarily driving the decrease for the first quarter of 2019 was the timing of a large customer order that occurred in fourth quarter of 2018. The overall decrease was partially offset by traction gained in Asia Pacific and Europe, as well as an uptick in domestic drilling tools revenue.

Segment adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2019 was $4.1 million, or 22.0% of revenue, as compared to $2.8 million, or 12.5% of revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2018 and $3.6 million, or 20.3% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2018. Contributing to the 47.6% growth in adjusted EBITDA from the fourth quarter of 2018 was an increase in higher-margin drilling tools revenue.

Cementing Equipment

Cementing Equipment revenue was $27.7 million in the first quarter of 2019, up 22.0% from $22.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2018, and 45.6% higher than $19.0 million for the first quarter of 2018. Contributing to the sequential increase from the fourth quarter of 2018 was increased product sales in the North American offshore markets led by the Gulf of Mexico, as well as record product sales for the segment’s U.S. onshore operations.

Segment adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2019 was $3.8 million, or 13.7% of revenue, as compared to $1.5 million, or 6.8% of revenue, for the fourth quarter of 2018 and $1.0 million, or 5.0% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2018. The 145.9% increase in sequential adjusted EBITDA was primarily a result of an improved mix of product and service revenues both domestically and internationally in the first quarter of 2019.

Capital Expenditures and Financial Position

Cash expenditures related to property, plant and equipment and intangibles were $8.1 million for the first quarter of 2019. The Company continues to expect total capital expenditures of $40 million to $50 million for 2019, with the majority of spending related to further investment in new equipment.

As of March 31, 2019, the Company’s consolidated cash and short-term investments was $172.0 million and debt outstanding was $3.9 million. Liquidity as of March 31, 2019 was $254.3 million, including cash and short-term investments, as well as $82.3 million available under the Company’s Credit Facility.

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this press release specifically include statements, estimates and projections regarding the Company’s future business strategy and prospects for growth, cash flows and liquidity, financial strategy, budget, projections and operating results, the amount, nature and timing of capital expenditures, the availability and terms of capital, the level of activity in the oil and gas industry, volatility of oil and gas prices, unique risks associated with offshore operations, political, economic and regulatory uncertainties in international operations, the ability to develop new technologies and products, the ability to protect intellectual property rights, the ability to employ and retain skilled and qualified workers, the level of competition in the Company’s industry and other guidance. These statements are based on certain assumptions made by the Company based on management’s experience, expectations and perception of historical

trends, current conditions, anticipated future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance.

Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable and are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that these assumptions are accurate or that any of these expectations will be achieved (in full or at all) or will prove to have been correct. Moreover, such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, which may be used periodically by management when discussing the Company’s financial results with investors and analysts. The accompanying schedules of this press release provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are presented because management believes these metrics provide additional information relative to the performance of the Company’s business. These metrics are commonly employed by financial analysts and investors to evaluate the operating and financial performance of the Company from period to period and to compare it with the performance of other publicly traded companies within the industry. You should not consider adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin may be defined differently by other companies in the Company’s industry, the Company’s presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) before severance and other charges, net, net of tax and mergers and acquisition expense, net of tax. The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share as net income (loss) before severance and other charges, net, net of tax and mergers and acquisition expense, net of tax, divided by diluted weighted average common shares. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest income, net, depreciation and amortization, income tax benefit or expense, asset impairments, gain or loss on disposal of assets, foreign currency gain or loss, equity-based compensation, the effects of the tax receivable agreement, unrealized and realized gains or losses and other non-cash adjustments and other charges or credits. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA to assess its financial performance because it allows the Company to compare its operating performance on a consistent

basis across periods by removing the effects of its capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of the Company’s management team (such as income tax and foreign currency exchange rates). The Company defines adjusted EBITDA margin as adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.

Please see the accompanying financial tables for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.
