KLX ENERGY SERVICES HOLDINGS, INC. REPORTS

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this release for a discussion of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, net debt, net working capital, net leverage ratio and their reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We have not provided reconciliations of our future expectations as to Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA margin as such reconciliations are not available without unreasonable efforts. In addition, for comparative purposes, we have also presented Pro Forma Operating Income (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 in the Additional Selected Operating Data section below.
Chris Baker, KLX President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, stated, “During 2022, we were focused on driving price and utilization while prudently managing our cost structure on the heels of our successful 2020 merger with QES. This translated into a record year relative to other periods post-merger and immediately pre-merger, and we finished 2022 on a high note with a strong

fourth quarter, overcoming typical seasonality impacts in our late fourth quarter calendars. Our strategy of utilizing key performance indicators to analyze price, asset utilization and discrete district performance provided the roadmap to our early 2022 strategic asset realignment and yielded materially improved results throughout 2022. I’m proud to report that we are largely trending ahead of 2019 levels for revenue and margins when viewed on a second half 2022 annualized basis. I'm also proud to report that Q4 was our highest net income since generating $13.6 million of net income in Q2 2018. Additionally, we have materially improved our capitalization profile and exited 2022 with a fourth quarter annualized net leverage ratio of only 1.5x.
“Looking to the first quarter of 2023, we typically expect a natural transition in activity as operators ramp up their 2023 programs. However, the normal sequential revenue decline from the fourth quarter to the first quarter is expected to be less pronounced than prior years due to the continued tightness in the oilfield services market related to both equipment and crews. We expect first quarter revenue to be between $225.0 million to $230.0 million and first quarter Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $30.0 million to $35.0 million. For the full year, we expect our 2023 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA margin to be in the range of $925.0 million to $975.0 million and 16.0% to 18.0%, respectively. Full year 2023 capital spending is expected to range between $55.0 and $65.0 million, representing approximately 5.9% to 6.7% of full year 2023 revenue guidance,” concluded Baker.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 totaled $223.3 million, a slight increase of 0.8% compared to third quarter revenue of $221.6 million. The increase in revenue reflects the increase in activity and pricing across all geographic segments and product service lines. On a product line basis, drilling, completion, production and intervention services contributed approximately 29.9%, 48.8%, 12.1% and 9.2%, respectively, to revenues for the fourth quarter 2022.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $13.2 million, compared to third quarter net income of $11.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $37.3 million, compared to third quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $37.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the fourth quarter of 2022 remained at 16.7%, same as third quarter Adjusted EBITDA margin.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Segment Results
The Company reports revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA through three geographic business segments: Rocky Mountains, Southwest and Northeast/Mid-Con.
•Rocky Mountains: Revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the Rocky Mountains segment was $66.1 million, $12.4 million and $17.9 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2022. Fourth quarter revenue represents a 0.6% decrease over the third quarter of 2022 largely due to a slight decrease in completions activity driven by holidays and seasonal slowdowns.
•Southwest: Revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the Southwest segment, which includes the Permian and South Texas, was $74.8 million, $7.7 million and $12.4 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2022. Fourth quarter revenue represents a 9.2% increase over the third quarter of 2022 largely driven by an increase in activity and weighted average pricing across all of our product service lines, with directional drilling and tech services experiencing the largest increases.
2
•Northeast/Mid-Con: Revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the Northeast/Mid-Con segment was $82.4 million, $15.4 million and $19.7 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2022. Fourth quarter revenue represents a 4.8% decrease over the third quarter of 2022 largely due to slightly lower activity in pressure pumping and tech services driven by customer drilling issues and holidays.
The following is a tabular summary of revenue, operating income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022 and third quarter ended September 30, 2022 ($ in millions).

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
Total debt outstanding as of December 31, 2022 was $283.4 million, compared to $295.6 million as of September 30, 2022. The decrease in total debt was driven by debt exchange transactions as detailed below. As of December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents totaled $57.4 million. Available liquidity as of December 31, 2022 was $101.8 million, including availability of $44.4 million on the December 2022 asset-based lending facility (the “ABL Facility”) borrowing base certificate. The Senior Secured Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 11.5%, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1st and November 1st. Accrued interest as of December 31, 2022 was $4.6 million for the Senior Secured Notes and $0.2 million related to the ABL Facility.
3
Net working capital as of December 31, 2022 was $72.1 million, which was up 14.6% from September 30, 2022 levels. The increase in net working capital was driven by a slight slowdown in customer payments at year-end, which resulted in a 7.4% increase in days sales outstanding.
Reduction in Senior Secured Notes Outstanding
The Company exchanged $12.8 million of its Senior Secured Notes for 777,811 shares in multiple transactions during the fourth quarter of 2022 pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933. These exchanges reduce future annual cash interest expense by $1.5 million.
Other Financial Information
Capital expenditures were $9.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $3.0 million or 24.0% compared to capital expenditures of $12.5 million in the third quarter of 2022. Capital spending during the fourth quarter was driven primarily by maintenance capital expenditures across our segments. As of December 31, 2022, we had $4.9 million of assets held for sale related to two facilities, land and select equipment in the Rocky Mountains and Southwest segments.
Guidance
•First quarter 2023 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance ranges of $225.0 million to $230.0 million and $30.0 million to $35.0 million, respectively. Note, Q1 is perennially impacted by weather, customer budget finalization timing and elevated personnel costs due to payroll and unemployment taxes.
•Full year 2023 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA margin guidance ranges of $925.0 million to $975.0 million and 16.0% to 18.0%, respectively.
•Full year 2023 capital spending between $55.0 and $65.0 million, representing approximately 5.9% to 6.7% of full year 2023 revenue guidance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes Adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and net working capital measures. Each of the metrics are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net earnings or cash flows as determined by GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, (iii) restructuring charges, (iv) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (v) costs incurred related to the COVID-19 pandemic and (vi) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is used to calculate the Company’s leverage ratio, consistent with the terms of the Company’s ABL Facility.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and proceeds from sale of property and equipment. Our management uses free cash flow to assess the Company’s liquidity and ability to repay maturing debt, fund operations and make additional investments. We believe that free cash flow provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company’s liquidity, including its ability to reduce net debt, make strategic investments and repurchase stock.
Net working capital is calculated as current assets, excluding cash, less current liabilities, excluding accrued interest and finance lease obligations. We believe that net working capital provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company’s liquidity.
We define net debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We believe that net debt provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company’s indebtedness.
10
We define annualized net leverage ratio as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, divided over 4 multiplied by Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that annualized net leverage ratio provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company’s indebtedness in relation to its operating performance.
The following tables present a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated:
