TETRA Technologies, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2019 Results

THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Nov. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- TETRA Technologies, Inc. ("TETRA") (NYSE:TTI) announced consolidated third quarter net loss before discontinued operations of $9.1 million, compared to a net loss before discontinued operations of $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 and $12.9 million in the same quarter of last year.  Net loss per share before discontinued operations attributable to TETRA shareholders during the third quarter was $0.06, unchanged from the second quarter of 2019 and from the third quarter of 2018.  Adjusted per share(1) loss before discontinued operations and excluding special items, was $0.02 in the third quarter, unchanged from the second quarter of this year and the third quarter of 2018.

Brady M. Murphy, TETRA's Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Despite a challenging North America onshore market that is experiencing a significant pullback in activity, I'm pleased with our third quarter performance.  We continue to focus on differentiated offerings in each of our segments and on generating free cash flow.  Our third quarter results reflect great progress on these objectives.  Consolidated revenue from continuing operations was $246 million in the third quarter, down 15% sequentially and down 4% from last year.  During the quarter, consolidated cash provided by operations was $46.6 million and TETRA only adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations(1) was $9.7 million, which was a significant improvement over the second quarter of this year and the third quarter of last year.  Adjusted EBITDA(1) on a consolidated basis was $46 million, down from $50 million in the second quarter primarily as a result of the seasonal decline in our northern Europe industrial chemicals business, while Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue(1) improved sequentially across all three divisions.  The TETRA CS Neptune® completion fluids project that we were expecting to be materially completed in the third quarter has been delayed and is now anticipated to be completed in the fourth quarter.  Despite the delay in TETRA CS Neptune® completion fluids activity, our Completion Fluids & Products Division achieved income before taxes as a percentage of revenue of 19.1% and delivered solid Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue(1) of 23.7%, which is the highest Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue(1) without the benefit of TETRA CS Neptune® completion fluids sales since the fourth quarter of 2015.  Our Compression Division again achieved record high gross margins and utilization for our compression services equipment.  Water & Flowback Services Division income before taxes and Adjusted EBITDA(1) showed resiliency in a difficult market with income before taxes of $2.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA(1) increasing sequentially by $0.3 million to $11.2 million, outperforming the macro market indicators.

"Our Completion Fluids & Products Division continues to experience high demand for our services and products in domestic and most international offshore markets, with favorable product mix and pricing improvements that is reflected in the Division's income before taxes of $11.3 million.  In the second quarter of this year we signed a contract to provide TETRA CS Neptune® completion fluids for an ultra-deepwater Gulf of Mexico project that was expected to be materially completed towards the end of the third quarter.  This project was delayed and is now expected to be completed during the fourth quarter.  These type of projects are complex, ultra-deepwater wells that are prone to unforeseen challenges, making the predictability on the timing of completing the well very difficult.  During the third quarter we also launched the TETRA CS Neptune® completion fluids monovalent family of products at the Society of Petroleum Engineering (SPE) Europe conference. Monovalent completion fluids are more compatible with certain reservoirs and can also provide lower corrosion rates in some applications.  Feedback to-date has been very positive, and we believe that this new technology will open more opportunities to deploy our highly differentiated portfolio of TETRA CS Neptune® completion fluids.  Highlighting our progress with technology differentiation, TETRA was a finalist for World Oil's Magazine's Best Oilfield Fluids and Chemicals Award for the TETRA Advanced Displacement System (TADS).  Outside the oilfield services market, our industrial chemicals business remains strong and meaningfully contributed to our strong Completion Fluids & Products Division results and helps offset some of the volatility in our North America oilfield onshore business. 

"Water & Flowback Services Division income before taxes was $2.6 million.  The Division had income before taxes as a percentage of revenue of 3.5% and Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue(1) of 15.4% on slightly lower revenue from the second quarter of 2019, as we continue to focus on integrated projects utilizing our automation capabilities.  We finished the quarter with 20 integrated projects with 13 customers.  Four of the projects were with either new customers or in new basins.  To support our closed loop water management capability, we released our new TETRA BlueLinxTM Automated Control System, which provides remote control and monitoring for nearly every aspect of our integrated water management services.  In the third quarter, our automation efforts and cost cutting initiatives helped us successfully navigate through this challenging market. We also made progress commercializing our TETRA Advanced Cyclone System (TACS), which is achieving proven sand recovery efficiency greater than 95%, compared to traditional cyclones which typically have closer to 50% sand recovery efficiency.  We signed a take-or-pay contract with a major E&P operator in the Permian Basin, who was the first to run extensive trials with TACS, for multiple units to displace their current technology.  We have also been awarded a contract for multiple test separators in Argentina, our first Latin American contract for this type of equipment.  TETRA was also a finalist for two World Oil Magazine Best Water Management Technology Awards, one for its TETRA SwiftWater Automated Treatment (SWAT™) System, and the other for TETRA Lowest Cost Per Barrel Water Management Solution.  We were the only company that had two technology solutions in the finals.

"Compression Division revenue decreased sequentially to $114 million from $136 million on lower new equipment sales while compression services and aftermarket services revenue both increased.  Compression services gross margins were once again at record highs driven by price increases that we continue to achieve, record high utilization of equipment, cost actions and the deployment of new equipment at higher pricing.  While we have seen some of our customers slow down the need for additional compression services going into 2020, the overall fundamentals for the compression services business have not changed and this segment remains one of the strongest in the oil and gas industry.  We continue to see centralized gas lift as a growing trend to increase liquid production, and it, combined with our increased focus on surface artificial lift methods with solutions such as the Gas Assisted Plunger Lift (GAPL)  and Backside Auto Injection Systems (BAIS) technology, has resulted in a fourfold increase since the beginning of the year in the number of GasJack®  units we have working for these unconventional applications.  We are extremely pleased with the amount of interest and demand these new applications are creating for GasJack® units."

Operating Segments

Completion Fluids & Products Division

Completion Fluids & Products revenue was $59.3 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of 26% from the second quarter of 2019 following the seasonal high industrial chemicals activity in Northern Europe.  Completion Fluids & Products income before taxes was $11.3 million, or 19.1% of revenue.  Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $14.0 million decreased by $3.8 million sequentially and was 23.7% of revenue, a 130 basis point improvement sequentially.  We did not have the benefit of an expected TETRA CS Neptune® completion fluids project in this quarter.

Water & Flowback Services Division

Water & Flowback Services third quarter 2019 revenue decreased 0.4% sequentially to $72.8 million.  Income before taxes was $2.6 million, or 3.5% of revenue.  Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 3% sequentially to $11.2 million, despite the sequential revenue drop.  Results in this division held up well across most North America basins, despite the headwinds the industry is facing.  Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue(1) improved to 15.4% in the third quarter of 2019 from 14.9% in the second quarter driven by our transition towards integrated projects with automation and cost cutting efforts.

Compression Division

Third quarter Compression revenue decreased 16% from the second quarter of 2019 due to the timing on the shipment of new equipment, to $114 million, and was 1% below the third quarter of last year.  Compression services gross margins were 53.2%, up 50 basis points from the second quarter of 2019 and overall fleet utilization was 90.1%, both of which are the highest since the acquisition of Compressor Systems, Inc. in 2014.  As of September 30, 2019, total active operating horsepower was 1,043,384, a sequential improvement of over 14,000 horsepower. Compression Division net loss before taxes was $3.5 million, in-line with the net loss in the second quarter of 2019.  Third quarter 2019 Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $31.3 million decreased 5% from the second quarter of 2019 primarily due to lower new equipment sales.  We received net new equipment orders of $29 million in the third quarter of 2019, up from $18 million in the second quarter of this year.  New equipment sales backlog increased to $63 million at September 30, 2019 from $60 million at the end of the previous quarter.

Free Cash Flow and Balance Sheet

Consolidated cash provided from operating activities for the third quarter was $46.6 million.  TETRA only adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations(2) in the third quarter was $9.7 million and compares to $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2019.  We have historically consumed cash in the first half of the year and generated cash in the second half of the year, reflecting the seasonality of some of our businesses.  We continue to forecast that TETRA only adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations will be positive for the full year and above last year's levels.  Consolidated total debt(2) was $858 million while consolidated net debt([2]) was $822 million, with TETRA only net debt of $192 million (see Schedule H for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures).  At the end of the third quarter of 2019, TETRA only non-restricted cash was $21 million.

Schedule E: Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, this press release may include the following non-GAAP financial measures for the Company: net debt; adjusted consolidated and segment income (loss) before taxes and special charges; adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share before discontinued operations; consolidated and segment adjusted EBITDA; TETRA only adjusted free cash flow and TETRA only free cash flow from continuing operations; and segment adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue. The following schedules provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, as more fully discussed in the Company's financial statements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Management believes that the exclusion of the special charges from the historical results of operations enables management to evaluate more effectively the Company's operations over the prior periods and to identify operating trends that could be obscured by the excluded items.

Adjusted income (loss) before taxes (and adjusted income (loss) before taxes as a percent of revenue) is defined as the Company's (or the Segment's) income (loss) before taxes excluding certain special or other charges (or credits). Adjusted income (loss) before taxes (and adjusted income (loss) before taxes as a percent of revenue) is used by management as a supplemental financial measure to assess financial performance, without regard to charges or credits that are considered by management to be outside of its normal operations.

Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share before discontinued operations is defined as the Company's diluted earnings (loss) per share excluding certain special or other charges (or credits) and using a normalized effective income tax rate. Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share is used by management as a supplemental financial measure to assess financial performance, without regard to charges or credits that are considered by management to be outside of its normal operations.

Adjusted EBITDA before discontinued operations (and Adjusted EBITDA before discontinued operations as a percent of revenue) is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments and certain non-cash charges and non-recurring adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA before discontinued operations (and Adjusted EBITDA before discontinued operations as a percent of revenue) is used by management as a supplemental financial measure to assess the financial performance of the Company's assets, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis and to assess the Company's ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures.

TETRA only adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that the Company defines as cash from TETRA's operations, less capital expenditures net of sales proceeds and cost of equipment sold, and including cash distributions to TETRA from CSI Compressco LP. TETRA only adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations is defined as TETRA only adjusted free cash flow less discontinued operations EBITDA and discontinued operations capital expenditures. Management uses this supplemental financial measure to:

  • assess the Company's ability to retire debt;
  • evaluate the capacity of the Company to further invest and grow; and
  • to measure the performance of the Company as compared to its peer group.

TETRA only adjusted free cash flow and TETRA only adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations do not necessarily imply residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures, as they exclude cash requirements for debt service or other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted.

TETRA net debt is defined as the sum of the carrying value of long-term and short-term debt on its consolidated balance sheet, less cash, excluding restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet and excluding the debt and cash of CSI Compressco LP. Management views TETRA net debt as a measure of TETRA's ability to reduce debt, add to cash balances, pay dividends, repurchase stock, and fund investing and financing activities.
