Forum Energy Technologies Announces
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2019 Results

Fourth Quarter Highlights
Revenue of $200 million
Net loss of $12 million and diluted EPS of $(0.11)
Adjusted EBITDA of $11 million
Cash flow from operations of $28 million and free cash flow after capital expenditures of $26 million
Net debt reduced by $29 million
HOUSTON, TEXAS, February 12, 2020 - Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FET) today announced fourth quarter 2019 revenue of $200 million, a decrease of $40 million from the third quarter 2019. Net loss for the quarter was $12 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $533 million, or $4.83 per diluted share, for the third quarter 2019. Excluding $3 million, or $0.02 per share of special items, adjusted net loss was $0.09 per diluted share in the fourth quarter 2019 compared to adjusted net income of $0.02 per diluted share in the third quarter 2019. Forum generated $11 million of adjusted EBITDA in the quarter.
Special items in the fourth quarter 2019, on a pre-tax basis, included a gain on disposition of business of $2 million, other charges primarily for discontinued products of $4 million, and an $8 million foreign exchange loss. See Tables 1-5 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
Forum’s total revenue for the full year 2019 was $957 million, a decrease of $108 million, or 10%, from 2018. Net loss was $567 million, or $5.15 per diluted share. Excluding $4.96 per share of special items, adjusted net loss was $0.19 per diluted share for the full year 2019 compared to adjusted net income of $0.02 in 2018. Adjusted EBITDA for full year 2019 was $73 million, a decrease of $24 million, or 25% from 2018.
Cris Gaut, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, “Despite the exceptionally low level of customer spending in the fourth quarter, we continued to successfully execute our strategy of achieving strong free cash flow, reducing net debt and inventory levels, and emphasizing our winning products. Free cash flow was $26 million in the fourth quarter, our fifth successive quarter of strong cash results. We reduced our net inventory position by $29 million in the quarter, as reduction of excess inventory continues to be a meaningful source of cash for the company. Our revenue was down 17% from the third quarter due to our customers’ reduced


1



capital and operating spending resulting from budget exhaustion and preservation of cash. However, we did see an inflection in our bookings in the fourth quarter driven by new orders for international projects, and our book-to-bill ratio for the quarter was above one for the first time in several quarters. Our adjusted EBITDA of $11 million was in line with our expectations despite the lower revenue as we managed our costs.
"In 2019, Forum generated $73 million of adjusted EBITDA and $90 million of free cash flow, representing a greater than 75% free cash yield on our current equity market capitalization, and a greater than 120% conversion rate of EBITDA to cash. Over the year, we reduced net debt by $130 million through a combination of strong free cash flow and divestitures of non-core assets. We ended the year with net debt of $342 million, $58 million of cash on the balance sheet, and an undrawn revolver. We expect to continue to generate significant free cash flow throughout 2020.
“Oilfield activity is off to a slow start in 2020 due to low oil and natural gas prices and constrained spending budgets. There is also uncertainty about the demand for oil due to concerns about the coronavirus and its potential impact on the Chinese and global economy. Subject to these uncertainties, we expect activity to increase over the course of the year. Therefore, we expect our EBITDA for 2020 to be within a range of $60 million to $70 million and our free cash flow conversion to remain very high. Generating free cash flow and managing for cost efficiency remain our top priorities along with growing market share through our portfolio of winning products."
Fourth Quarter Segment Results
Drilling & Downhole segment revenue was $78 million, a decrease of $10 million, or 11%, from the third quarter 2019, primarily due to customers deferring receipt of equipment into the first quarter, as well as lower sales of drilling and well construction consumable products in the U.S. Orders in the fourth quarter were $74 million, an 8% decrease from the third quarter. Segment adjusted EBITDA decreased by $3 million, or 22%, from the third quarter. Approximately half of the decrease was related to the third quarter divestiture of our equity interest in Ashtead Technology. 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 $58 million, a decrease of $12 million, or 17% sequentially, due to the severe slowdown in the U.S. onshore completions market. Orders in the fourth quarter were $58 million, a decrease of $6 million, or 10% from the third quarter. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $5 million, a $6 million sequential decrease, resulting from decreased operating leverage from lower volumes, and lower cost recovery compared to the third quarter. The Completions segment designs and manufactures products for the coiled tubing, stimulation and intervention markets.
Production segment revenue was $65 million, a decrease of $16 million, or 20%, from the third quarter. This was primarily due to lower sales of valves as distributors continued to reduce their inventories and, to a lesser


2



extent, lower deliveries of surface production equipment as exploration and production budgets were exhausted. Orders in the fourth quarter were $70 million, a 26% increase sequentially, due to receipt of two large international orders for desalination equipment and significant orders for well-site production equipment for deliveries throughout 2020. This was partially offset by lower orders for valves. Segment adjusted EBITDA decreased by $3 million, sequentially, due to the lower volumes and unfavorable sales mix. 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.

(1) Includes earnings (loss) from equity investment for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2019.

(2) Includes transaction expenses, gain/(loss) on disposal of assets, and impairments of goodwill, intangibles, and property and equipment.

(3) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA is useful to the Company's investors because 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, 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.

(4) Refer to Table 1 for schedule of adjusting items.

(1) Includes earnings (loss) from equity investment.

(2) Includes transaction expenses, gain (loss) on disposal of assets, contingent consideration benefit, and impairments of goodwill, intangibles, property and equipment.

(3) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA is useful to the Company's investors because 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, 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.

(1) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) 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.
