Management Commentary

“NexTier’s second quarter results demonstrate the resilience of our business model and the strength of our commercial and operations teams. Quarterly revenue grew sequentially amid a slowdown in activity industry-wide,” commented Robert Drummond, President and Chief Executive Officer of NexTier. “Our differentiated solutions and a higher level of performance through our integrated platform allowed us to maintain relatively consistent activity levels while helping customers reduce costs at the wellsite. We believe the current market slowdown is transitory, and by early 2024 we think demand for our services will need to increase as higher drilling and completion activity will be needed for US land production to help fill growing global oil and natural gas demand.”

Mr. Drummond concluded, “We are making progress on completing our pending combination with Patterson-UTI, which we believe will create a stronger, more diversified leader in US land oilfield services that is well positioned to capitalize on the anticipated market upswing. Together, we will have a strengthened financial profile and expanded resources to continue to effectively allocate capital and invest in next-generation technologies to advance customers’ sustainability objectives and reduce costs, while also accelerating shareholder returns. We believe this transaction will allow us to remain at the forefront and help keep the US shale oil and gas industry positioned as a low-cost producer within the global cost curve.”

“We delivered another quarter of strong returns and free cash flow growth, building on our considerable momentum since the beginning of the recent industry recovery,” said Kenny Pucheu, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of NexTier. “Our free cash flow accelerated in the second quarter even as we made the final earnout payment associated with the Alamo acquisition. We continue to prudently allocate capital to drive shareholder returns and strengthen our balance sheet, and we expect to exceed our goal of zero net debt by the end of the third quarter. As we look into the future, we are confident that together with Patterson-UTI, we can drive even more value creation for our employees, customers and shareholders.”

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Revenue totaled $945.1 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $935.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. The 1% sequential increase in revenue was primarily driven by modestly higher pricing compared to the first quarter as well as strong execution and continued progress in our wellsite integration strategy, partially offset by a lower deployed fleet count relative to the first quarter.

Net income totaled $150.1 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2023, compared to net income of $254.0 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2023. The Company recognized a $5.5 million and $107.4 million non-cash tax benefit related to the partial release of a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets in the second quarter and first quarter of 2023, respectively. This release reflects improved market conditions and the Company’s expectation to utilize these deferred tax assets in the coming years. Adjusted net income totaled $157.5 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2023, compared to adjusted net income of $156.4 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2023.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) of $39.7 million in the second quarter of 2023, remained unchanged compared to the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted SG&A(1) totaled $30.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to adjusted SG&A of $30.3 million in the first quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA totaled $233.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $227.6 million in the first quarter of 2023.

Second Quarter 2023 Management Adjustments

EBITDA(1) for the second quarter of 2023 was $221.0 million. When excluding net management adjustments of $13.0 million, adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $233.9 million. Management adjustments included $8.2 million in non-cash stock compensation expense and a net $4.8 million in other adjustments, including $5.3 million in acquisition, integration, and expansion costs mostly associated with the pending merger with Patterson-UTI, partially offset by a $1.1 million gain on insurance recovery.

Completion Services

Revenue in our Completion Services segment totaled $905.5 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $895.6 million in the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted gross profit(1) in this segment totaled $260.1 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $252.6 million in the first quarter of 2023.

Well Construction and Intervention Services

Revenue in our Well Construction and Intervention Services segment, totaled $39.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $40.1 million in the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted gross profit in this segment totaled $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to adjusted gross profit of $9.1 million in the first quarter of 2023.

Balance Sheet and Capital

Total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2023 was $354.5 million, net of debt discounts and deferred financing costs and excluding finance lease obligations. As of June 30, 2023, total available liquidity was $721.5 million, comprised of cash of $310.2 million and $411.3 million of available borrowing capacity under our asset-based credit facility, which remains undrawn.

Total cash provided by operating activities during the second quarter of 2023 was $226.0 million and cash used by investing activities was $98.4 million, resulting in free cash flow of $127.5 million in the second quarter of 2023.

Net debt at the end of the second quarter was approximately $44.3 million, down $95.1 million from the prior quarter.

Outlook

Given the pending merger with Patterson-UTI, we will not provide detailed financial guidance. On activity, we anticipate we could see our deployed fleet count fall by as many as 3 fleets by the end of the third quarter, and we also expect to see increased whitespace, with our average pumping hours per fleet also expected to decline slightly.

For the third quarter of 2023, we expect capital expenditures will be down, sequentially, to $85 million. We expect to reduce capital expenditures further in the fourth quarter. Free cash flow should be strong again and we expect that we will exceed our target of zero net debt by the end of the third quarter.

Mr. Drummond concluded, “We view the current slowdown in industry activity as transitory, and by 2024, we see a path for US land completion activity to recover to levels that we saw in the first quarter of this year. Considering our view that

newbuilds have been insufficient to entirely replace attrition, we believe frac equipment could once again be the bottleneck to US oil and gas production growth by next year. We have no intention to accelerate the depreciation of our equipment to hold work in the near-term, and as such, we will use any downtime as an opportunity to invest to upgrade and fully maintain our fleet to ensure we are prepared for a recovery.”

(1)Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The Company has included in this press release or discussed on the conference call described above certain non-GAAP financial measures, some of which are calculated on segment basis or product line basis. These measurements provide supplemental information which management believes is useful to analysts and investors to evaluate our ongoing results of operations, when considered alongside GAAP measures such as net income and operating income. You should not consider them in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results under GAAP.

Non-GAAP financial measures include EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, incrementals, adjusted gross profit, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, free cash flow, adjusted SG&A, net debt, invested capital, average invested capital, return on invested capital, annualized return on invested capital, and adjusted annualized return on invested capital. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the financial impact of items management does not consider in assessing the Company’s ongoing operating performance, and thereby facilitate review of the Company’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis. Other companies may have different capital structures, and comparability to the Company’s results of operations may be impacted by the effects of acquisition accounting on its depreciation and amortization. As a result of the effects of these factors and factors specific to other companies, the Company believes EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, incrementals, adjusted gross profit, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, and adjusted SG&A provide helpful information to analysts and investors to facilitate a comparison of its operating performance to that of other companies. Management also uses adjusted EBITDA to set targets and to assess the performance of the Company. The Company believes free cash flow, and net debt provide investors a useful measure to assess management’s effectiveness in the areas of profitability and capital management. Invested capital, average invested capital, return on invested capital, annualized return on invested capital, and adjusted annualized return on invested capital are presented based on the Company’s belief that these non-GAAP measures are useful information to investors and management when comparing profitability and the efficiency with which capital has been employed over time relative to other companies.

For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures, please see the tables at the end of this press release. Reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures are not available due to the challenges and impracticability with estimating some of the items, particularly with estimates for certain contingent liabilities, and estimating non-cash unrealized fair value losses and gains which are subject to market variability and therefore a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Measure Definitions: EBITDA is defined as net income adjusted to eliminate the impact of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA as further adjusted with certain items management does not consider in assessing ongoing performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as (i) Revenue divided by (ii) Adjusted EBITDA. Incrementals is defined as the change in adjusted EBITDA quarter over quarter divided by the change in revenue quarter over quarter. Adjusted gross profit is defined as revenue less cost of services, further

adjusted to eliminate items in cost of services that management does not consider in assessing ongoing performance. Adjusted net income is defined as net income adjusted with certain items management does not consider in assessing ongoing performance. Adjusted net income per share is defined as (i) adjusted net income, (ii) divided by the number of weighted average shares outstanding. Free cash flow is defined as the net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents before financing activities, excluding any acquisitions. Adjusted SG&A is defined as selling, general and administrative expenses adjusted for non-cash stock compensation and other non-routine items. Net debt is defined as (i) total debt, net of unamortized debt discount and unamortized deferred financing costs, (ii) subtracting cash and cash equivalents. Invested capital is defined as the sum of (a) long-term operating lease liabilities, less current maturities, (b) plus long-term finance lease liabilities, less current maturities, (c) plus long-term debt, net of unamortized deferred financing cost and unamortized debt discounts, less current maturities (d) plus total stockholder’s equity. Average invested capital is defined as the average of the beginning and ending invested capital. Return on invested capital is defined as (i) net income, (ii) divided by average invested capital during the period. Annualized return on invested capital is defined as (i) annualized net income for a given quarter (ii) divided by average invested capital during the period. Adjusted annualized return on invested capital is defined as (i) annualized adjusted net income for a given quarter, (ii) divided by average invested capital during the period.
