GlobeNewswire - Thu Aug 1, 5:00AM CDT

CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Calfrac Well Services Ltd. (“Calfrac” or “the Company”) (TSX: CFW) announces its financial and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The following press release should be read in conjunction with the management’s discussion and analysis and interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as at June 30, 2024. Readers should also refer to the “Forward-looking statements” legal advisory and the section regarding “Non-GAAP Measures” at the end of this press release. All financial amounts and measures are expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated. Additional information about Calfrac is available on the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca, including the Company’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2023.

CEO’S MESSAGE

Calfrac generated sequential improvement in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA during the second quarter as utilization in North America increased despite lower year-over-year commodity prices. The Company’s operations in Argentina have produced strong financial results over the last six quarters, and there are significant opportunities to grow operating scale in the Vaca Muerta shale play. As a result, the Company is strategically investing additional capital to bolster its fracturing capabilities in Argentina. Calfrac continues to improve upon its exceptional safety record as it reduced the trailing twelve-month Total Recordable Injury Frequency (“TRIF”) from 0.87 at the end of the first quarter to 0.77 as of June 30. The Company believes that through efficient execution and prudent deployment of capital across its diverse geographic footprint, it will be well-positioned to successfully navigate the current short-term headwinds in North America.

Calfrac’s Chief Executive Officer, Pat Powell commented: “I am proud of the resiliency that the Calfrac team demonstrated with the strong improvement in financial results during the second quarter. I am looking forward to leveraging that momentum through the remainder of the year as we continue to safely and efficiently execute on our client’s development plans in North America and Argentina to maximize returns for our shareholders.”

SECOND QUARTER OVERVIEW

In the second quarter of 2024, the Company:

  • generated revenue of $426.0 million, a decrease of 9 percent from the second quarter in 2023 resulting primarily from lower activity and a lower pricing environment in certain markets within the United States;
  • reported second-quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $65.4 million versus $87.8 million in the second quarter of 2023 mainly as a result of lower utilization and pricing in the United States;
  • reported net income from continuing operations of $24.5 million or $0.29 per share diluted compared to net income of $50.5 million or $0.58 per share diluted during the second quarter in 2023;
  • increased period-end working capital to $303.9 million from $236.4 million at December 31, 2023, due to a combination of higher revenue earned at period end and geographical mix; and
  • incurred capital expenditures from continuing operations of $66.8 million, which included approximately $36.7 million related to the Company’s fracturing fleet modernization program.

OUTLOOK

Calfrac’s meaningful sequential increase in financial performance during the second quarter was primarily due to core clients in Canada accelerating the timing of their 2024 completion programs, combined with the Company’s operations in the United States building momentum throughout the quarter. Despite lower natural gas prices decreasing the year-over-year rig count in the United States, the Company anticipates utilization in North America for the second half of the year to resemble the first six months, outside of normal winter seasonality and customer budget exhaustion. Although lower demand for pressure pumping fleets has impacted utilization and pricing, the Company continues to prioritize return on capital to maximize shareholder returns.

Calfrac continues to improve its asset quality through its Tier IV Dynamic Gas Blending (“DGB”) equipment modernization program as well as boosting its last-mile proppant delivery capabilities through investments in high capacity Super B sand transport units. As of the end of June, the Company operated 49 Tier IV DGB pumping units in North America and expects to deploy the equivalent of five Tier IV DGB fleets by early 2025. Calfrac’s 30 new Super B sand trailers enable it to haul significantly more proppant in each load to location, thereby increasing operating efficiencies and profitability. Through the first half of 2024, approximately 70% of the North American capital budget has been expended and the Company anticipates lower capital expenditures for this segment during the remainder of the year.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

REVENUE

Revenue from Calfrac’s North American operations decreased to $333.5 million during the second quarter of 2024 from $376.3 million in the comparable quarter of 2023. The Company generated strong second-quarter revenue in North America despite lower year-over-year activity in the Rockies region of the United States as planned completion programs were deferred until later in the year. Activity in Canada was stronger than expected, particularly in May and June, due to the efficient completion of core client programs. In addition, Calfrac idled two fracturing fleets in the United States during February, and as a result, the Company operated an average of 13 fleets in North America during the second quarter of 2024 versus 15 fleets in the comparable quarter of 2023. Lower pricing in the United States also contributed to the 14 percent decrease in average revenue per job in the second quarter of 2024 versus the same quarter in 2023. Coiled tubing revenue decreased by 26 percent as compared to the second quarter in 2023 mainly due to lower utilization of Calfrac’s six deep coiled tubing units offset partially by the completion of larger jobs.

ADJUSTED EBITDA

The Company’s operations in North America generated Adjusted EBITDA of $54.4 million or 16 percent of revenue during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $75.3 million or 20 percent of revenue in the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to the decline in fracturing fleet utilization in the United States combined with lower pricing relative to the same period in 2023.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

REVENUE

Revenue from Calfrac’s North American operations decreased to $582.5 million during the first six months in 2024 from $789.4 million in the comparable period in 2023. The 26 percent decrease in revenue was primarily due to lower activity in the United States combined with lower pricing in certain markets. As a result, Calfrac idled two fracturing fleets during February 2024 and operated an average of 10 and 13 fleets in North America, respectively, during the first and second quarters of 2024 as compared to 15 fleets during the first half of 2023. In addition, activity for the Company’s coiled tubing operations in North America decreased by 34 percent from the first six months of 2023 due to lower industry demand for its six crewed units.

ADJUSTED EBITDA

The Company’s operations in North America generated Adjusted EBITDA of $69.3 million during the first half of 2024 compared to $151.8 million in the same period in 2023. This decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was largely driven by lower fracturing and coiled tubing utilization in North America during the first quarter of 2024 as well as lower overall pricing levels in the United States. However, utilization during the second quarter of 2024 improved for Calfrac’s fracturing fleets in North America, particularly in May and June, as the completion programs of the Company’s core clients significantly increased.

OUTLOOK

Calfrac’s Argentinean operations generated Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $15 million in the second quarter which produced a record profit margin of 18% over the first six months of the year. The Company expects to leverage this momentum throughout the remainder of 2024 as it anticipates strong utilization across all service lines in the Vaca Muerta shale play combined with increased offshore coiled tubing activity. Calfrac is excited about its prospects and looks forward to collaborating with its clients to enhance oil and natural gas development in Argentina.

Due to the high customer demand for Calfrac’s services combined with the improving political and business environment, the Company made the strategic decision to expand its pressure pumping footprint in the Vaca Muerta shale play. To facilitate this expected growth, Calfrac has increased its capital investment in the country by approximately $29 million to support the deployment of additional Tier II dual-fuel capable fracturing equipment into Argentina by the end of the year.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

REVENUE

Calfrac’s Argentinean operations generated revenue of $92.5 million during the second quarter of 2024 versus $90.1 million in the comparable quarter in 2023 as the Company maintained strong activity across all service lines. This increase in revenue was primarily due to initial revenue generated from its new offshore coiled tubing operations. Fracturing and cementing revenue were relatively consistent with the comparable quarter in 2023.

ADJUSTED EBITDA

The Company’s operations in Argentina generated Adjusted EBITDA of $14.7 million during the second quarter of 2024 compared to $17.8 million in the same quarter of 2023, while the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA margins decreased to 16 percent from 20 percent. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in activity in the Las Heras region of Argentina relative to the comparable period in 2023 as the Company’s major customer in that region began the formal process of closing its operations in that area. The Company was able to offset most of this reduction with additional spot work with new customers in Neuquén during the quarter.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

REVENUE

Calfrac’s Argentinean operations generated revenue of $173.7 million during the first six months of 2024 compared to $170.4 million in the first six months of 2023 as the Company maintained strong activity across all service lines. The slight increase in revenue was due to the initial revenue generated from its newly commenced offshore coiled tubing operations. Fracturing and cementing revenue were relatively consistent with the comparable quarter in 2023.

ADJUSTED EBITDA

The Company’s operations in Argentina generated Adjusted EBITDA of $30.8 million or 18 percent of revenue during the first six months in 2024 versus $29.3 million or 17 percent of revenue in the comparable period in 2023. The Company continues to focus on growing its operating presence in the Vaca Muerta shale play to offset lower utilization in Las Heras following the completion of its contract with a major client in that region during the second quarter of 2024.

Capital expenditures were $66.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 versus $30.7 million in the comparable period in 2023. Calfrac’s Board of Directors approved a 2024 total capital budget of approximately $210.0 million in December 2023. This was an increase of $45.0 million from the previous year, primarily to continue its fracturing fleet modernization program in North America and dedicate $40.0 million to support its Argentinean operations while implementing new company-wide field-based technologies. On March 13, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a deferral of up to $50.0 million of capital allocated to its North American fleet modernization program to align with market conditions at that time. On July 31, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a reinstatement of $40.0 million of its original capital budget to facilitate expansion of the Company’s fracturing operations in the Vaca Muerta play in Argentina and to accommodate incremental maintenance capital in North America.
