Exterran Corporation Announces Third Quarter 2021 Results

Net Debt Decreased by $15 million with Results In-Line with Expectations

Over $125 million of Contract Operations Contract Renewals in Latin America; ECO Backlog at $1.4 billion

Full Year 2021 Adjusted EBITDA Guidance Updated to $143-148 million

Capital Structure Review Focused on Operational Opportunities

HOUSTON, November 2, 2021 - Exterran Corporation (NYSE: EXTN) (“Exterran” or the “Company”) today reported third quarter financial results.

Andrew Way, Exterran’s President and Chief Executive Officer commented:

“Commercially, this quarter was a great success as we were awarded a significant contract for our water business and signed over $125 million of contract renewals in Latin America. Our global teams worked extremely hard in a continued challenging environment to deliver not only a quarter in-line with expectations, but to also achieve significant commercial successes. To top all of this off, net debt decreased by $15 million in the quarter.

We are modestly adjusting our full year adjusted EBITDA guidance to between $143 and $148 million as a function of timing of product order awards. We continue to have great confidence in our pipeline that remains around $3.5 billion and we believe the success we had in the third quarter is only the beginning of what is to come over the next few quarters.

Lastly, over the past couple of quarters we discussed the capital structure review we were undertaking in order to take full advantage of our commercial pipeline. We are in the middle of our planning cycle for 2022 and our view thus far gives us confidence in the multi-year forecast that we communicated in the first quarter. Given this, we are currently focused on the operational opportunities we have spoken to that would improve leverage and liquidity. We also continue to evaluate longer-term solutions to help support ongoing project financing.”

Net loss from continuing operations was $15.6 million, or $0.47 per share, on revenue of $161.3 million for the third quarter of 2021. This compares to net loss from continuing operations of $35.1 million, or $1.06 per share, on revenue of $146.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 and net loss from continuing operations of $16.7 million, or $0.51 per share, on revenue of $169.5 million for the third quarter of 2020. Net loss was $16.3 million for the third quarter of 2021, as compared to net loss of $35.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 and net loss of $17.7 million for the third quarter of 2020. EBITDA, as adjusted, was $35.1 million for the third quarter of 2021, as compared to $35.1 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $35.8 million for the third quarter of 2020. Loss before taxes was $20.8 million as compared to loss before taxes of $26.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 and loss before taxes of $11.0 million for the third quarter of 2020.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $34.9 million in the third quarter of 2021, as compared with $33.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 and $30.0 million in the third quarter of 2020.

Contract Operations Segment

Contract operations revenue in the third quarter of 2021 was $83.4 million, a 5% decrease from the second quarter of 2021 revenue of $87.5 million and a 2% increase from the third quarter of 2020 revenue of $81.7 million.

Contract operations adjusted gross margin in the third quarter of 2021 was $55.6 million, a 7% decrease from the second quarter of 2021 adjusted gross margin of $59.7 million and 3% decrease from the third quarter of 2020 adjusted gross margin of $57.1 million. Adjusted gross margin percentage in the third quarter of 2021 was 67%, as compared with 68% in the second quarter of 2021 and 70% in the third quarter of 2020.

Revenue decreased sequentially primarily due to the acceleration of deferred revenue in the prior quarter not repeating. Margins decreased sequentially due to the aforementioned decline in deferred revenue as well as additional maintenance costs.

Aftermarket Services Segment

Aftermarket services revenue in the third quarter of 2021 was $24.6 million, a 16% decrease from the second quarter of 2021 revenue of $29.4 million and a 19% decrease from the third quarter of 2020 revenue of $30.4 million.

Aftermarket services adjusted gross margin in the third quarter of 2021 was $5.3 million, a 12% decrease from the second quarter of 2021 adjusted gross margin of $6.0 million and 28% decrease with the third quarter of 2020 adjusted gross margin of $7.3 million. Adjusted gross margin percentage in the third quarter of 2021 was 21%, as compared with 20% in the second quarter of 2021 and 24% in the third quarter of 2020.

Revenue decreased sequentially due to global parts sales timing, while adjusted margin rate rose slightly from a favorable parts and services mix.

Product Sales Segment

Product sales revenue in the third quarter of 2021 was $53.3 million, an 82% increase from the second quarter of 2021 revenue of $29.3 million, and a 7% decrease from the third quarter of 2020 revenue of $57.4 million.

Product sales adjusted gross margin in the third quarter of 2021 was $6.5 million, an increase from the second quarter of 2021 adjusted gross margin of $2.2 million and an increase as compared to the third quarter of 2020 adjusted gross margin of $3.1 million. Adjusted gross margin percentage in the third quarter of 2021 was 12%, as compared with 7% in the second quarter of 2021 and 5% in the third quarter of 2020.

Revenue increased from the prior quarter as significant progress was made on our Middle East project. Adjusted gross margin percent improved to double digits from rising volume and lower under absorption.

Product sales backlog was $365.2 million at September 30, 2021, as compared to $410.8 million at June 30, 2021 and $496.7 million at September 30, 2020.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Information

Adjusted gross margin is defined as revenue less cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization expense). Adjusted gross margin percentage is defined as gross margin divided by revenue. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on gross margin for each segment.

EBITDA, as adjusted, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income (loss) excluding income (loss) from discontinued operations (net of tax), cumulative effect of accounting changes (net of tax), income taxes, interest expense (including debt extinguishment costs), depreciation and amortization expense, impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, non-cash gains or losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes recorded on intercompany obligations, expensed acquisition costs, gain on extinguishment of debt and other items.

Adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations and diluted adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share, non-GAAP measures, are defined as net income (loss) and earnings per share, excluding the impact of income (loss) from discontinued operations (net of tax), cumulative effect of accounting changes (net of tax), impairment charges (net of tax), restructuring and other charges (net of tax), gain on extinguishment of debt, the effect of income tax adjustments that are outside of the Company’s anticipated effective tax rates and other items.

See tables below for additional information concerning non-GAAP financial information, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial information presented in this press release to the most directly comparable financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial information supplements should be read together with, and are not an alternative or substitute for, the Company’s financial results reported in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial information is not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

(1) Represents the portion only attributable to cost of sales.

(2) Management evaluates the performance of each of the Company’s segments based on adjusted gross margin. Total adjusted gross margin, a non-GAAP measure, is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary measure used by our management to evaluate the results of revenue and cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization expense), which are key components of our operations. Management believes total adjusted gross margin is important supplemental information for investors because it focuses on the current performance of our operations and excludes the impact of the prior historical costs of the assets acquired or constructed that are utilized in those operations, the indirect costs associated with our SG&A activities, the impact of our financing methods, restructuring and other charges, gain on extinguishment of debt and income taxes. In addition, the inclusion of depreciation and amortization expense may not accurately reflect the costs required to maintain and replenish the operational usage of our assets and therefore may not portray the costs from current operating activity.

(3) Management believes EBITDA, as adjusted, is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare our core operating results from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from outstanding debt), asset base (depreciation and amortization), our subsidiaries’ capital structure (non-cash gains or losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes on intercompany obligations), tax consequences, impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, expensed acquisition costs, gain on extinguishment of debt and other items. Management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, as supplemental measures to review current period operating performance, comparability measures and performance measures for period to period comparisons. In addition, the Company's compensation committee has used EBITDA, as adjusted, in evaluating the performance of the Company and management and in evaluating certain components of executive compensation, including performance-based annual incentive programs.

(4) The tax impacts of adjustments were based on the Company’s statutory tax rates applicable to each item in the appropriate taxing jurisdictions. Using statutory tax rates for presentation of the non-GAAP measures allows a consistent basis for investors to understand financial performance of the Company across historical periods. The overall effective tax rate on adjustments was impacted by the inability to recognize tax benefits from charges in jurisdictions that are in cumulative-loss positions.

(5) Management believes adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations and diluted adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share provides useful information to investors because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare our core operating results from period to period by removing the impact of impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, expensed acquisition costs, gain on extinguishment of debt and other items not appropriately reflective of our core business.

(6) Diluted adjusted net income (loss) from continuing operations per common share, was computed using the two-class method to determine the net income (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating security (certain of our restricted stock and restricted stock units) according to participation rights in undistributed earnings.
