Superior Drilling Products, Inc. Delivers Revenue Growth of 45% to $5.2 million with Expanded Margins in Third Quarter 2022

  • Third quarter revenue increased $1.6 million, or 45%, to $5.2 million over the prior-year period

  • Strong operating leverage resulted in net income of $639 thousand, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with a loss in the prior-year period

  • Adjusted EBITDA* was $1.5 million with a margin of 29.5%, up 560 basis points

  • Ended the quarter with $2.0 million in cash and $7.5 million in shareholders’ equity

  • 2022 outlook includes the anticipated sale of the initial phase of the existing DNR tool fleet to support Middle East demand; expecting revenue between $22 million to
    $24 million and Adjusted EBITDA* of $6.5 million to $7.5 million. Without this sale, expected 2022 revenue would be between $18 million and $20 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $4.0 to $5.0 million.

*Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. See comments regarding the use of non-GAAP measures and the reconciliation of the third quarter GAAP to non-GAAP measures in the tables of this release.

VERNAL, Utah, November 11, 2022–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Superior Drilling Products, Inc. (NYSE American: SDPI) (“SDP” or the “Company”), a designer and manufacturer of drilling tool technologies, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

“Our third quarter results were solid and near the high end range of our expectations as our teams continued to execute well to meet increasing demand for our tools and services,” commented
Troy Meier, Chairman and CEO. “Importantly, we have also strengthened the earnings power of the company as we delivered net income of $639 thousand and achieved Adjusted EBITDA of $1.5 million, the highest level in more than four years, which yielded an impressive 29.5% margin.”

He added, “We believe that we continue to position ourselves well for the demand that exists for our Drill-N-Ream® (“DNR”), both domestically and internationally, and our contract services work. We have enhanced our manufacturing team and processes, and are expanding our capacity and improving our throughput with investments in two new machining centers, one of which came online during the third quarter. The second machining center is expected to be operational during the first quarter of 2023. On the international front, we continue to advance our efforts as we have begun the process to setup a refurbishment facility in Dubai and have bolstered our team with a new sales and marketing lead that has made meaningful headway in Kuwait. We are also looking forward to leveraging our new sales channel partner to drive great exposure throughout the Middle East region.”

Revenue growth reflects the continued recovery in the North America oil & gas industry and improving market conditions in the Middle East. Also contributing was strong demand for the manufacture and refurbishment of drill bits and other related tools for the Company’s long-time legacy customer.

For the third quarter of 2022, North America revenue comprised approximately 89% of total revenue, with remaining revenue all within the Middle East. Revenue in North America grew 52% year-over-year from increased Tool Revenue and strong growth in Contract Services.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense, and unusual items. See the attached tables for important disclosures regarding SDP’s use of Adjusted EBITDA, as well as a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

The year-over-year increase in the cost of revenue as a percent of revenue was the result of global inflationary headwinds and an expansion of the Company’s workforce to accommodate for its current and expected demand.

Selling, general & administrative expenses were 33.3% of revenue, a significant improvement from the prior-year period due to the leverage on higher sales volume.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 10.5% year-over-year to $363 thousand due to fully amortizing a portion of intangible assets and fully depreciating manufacturing center equipment.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Cash at the end of the quarter was $2.0 million. Cash generated by operations for the year-to-date period was $1.3 million compared with $1.4 million in the prior-year period. Higher net income was offset by working capital timing and an increase in inventory to combat supply chain inefficiencies and in support of the Company’s growth. Year-to-date capital expenditures of $2.6 million were related to machining capacity expansion, higher maintenance activities, and an increase in the Company’s Middle East DNR rental tool fleet. The comparable period in 2021 had $589 thousand of capital spending. The Company refined its capital spending expectations for fiscal 2022 to range between
$3.5 million to $4.0 million.

Total debt was $3.0 million at September 30, 2022. Subsequent to quarter-end, in October, the Company made the final $750 thousand principal payment on its Hard Rock Note.

2022 Guidance

The full year 2022 expectations reflect the projected impact from the sale of the $3.8 million stage one Middle East DNR fleet to Bin Zayed Petroleum in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Revenue: $22 million to $24 million
SG&A: $7.0 million to $7.3 million
Adjusted EBITDA(1): $6.5 million to $7.5 million

Without the $3.8 million DNR fleet sale, expected 2022 revenue would be between $18 million and
$20 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $4.0 to $5.0 million.

These statements reflect the beliefs and expectations of the Company and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. These risks and uncertainties include, among other factors, the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and related impact on the oil and natural gas industry, the effectiveness of success at expansion in the Middle East, options available for market channels in North America, the deferral of the commercialization of the Strider technology, the success of the Company’s business strategy and prospects for growth; the market success of the Company’s specialized tools, effectiveness of its sales efforts, its cash flow and liquidity; financial projections and actual operating results; the amount, nature and timing of capital expenditures; the availability and terms of capital; competition and government regulations; and general economic conditions.

Forward Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Forward-looking adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort largely because forecasting or predicting our future operating results is subject to many factors out of our control or not readily predictable. In addition, the Company believes that such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s fiscal 2022 and future financial results. This non-GAAP financial measure is a preliminary estimate and is subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among others, changes in connection with purchase accounting, quarter-end and year-end adjustments. Any variation between the Company’s actual results and preliminary financial data set forth in this presentation may be material.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA represents net income adjusted for income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization and other items as noted in the reconciliation table. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important supplemental measure of operating performance and uses it to assess performance and inform operating decisions. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a GAAP financial measure. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be used as a substitute for GAAP measures of performance, including net cash provided by operations, operating income and net income. The Company’s method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may vary substantially from the methods used by other companies and investors are cautioned not to rely unduly on it.
