Flotek Industries, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2018 Results

HOUSTON, Nov. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Flotek Industries, Inc. ("Flotek" or the "Company") (NYSE: FTK) today announced results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

"The third quarter showed material improvement over the first half of this year as our full-fluids Prescriptive Chemistry Management(®) ("PCM(®)") business continued to expand, diligent cost cutting measures were furthered and we executed upon the largest single Complex nano-Fluid(®) ("CnF(®)") order in Company history. Additionally, we delivered consolidated incremental adjusted EBITDA margins of 51% sequentially in the third quarter, in sharp contrast to our disappointing start to the year. As we committed to in the last quarter, our leadership team continues to make steady progress toward increasing our profitability," said John Chisholm, Flotek's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

"During the quarter, domestic shale operators generally reduced activity. At the same time, they increased their focus on understanding mechanical limitations of proppant loading and lateral lengths to optimize completion techniques and reservoir performance, which we believe play into Flotek's reservoir-centric chemistry offering. Further, as operators prioritize capital efficiency to deliver positive free cash flow, Flotek is providing value-added chemistry technology that delivers higher production at a variety of price points. Meanwhile, there has been increased direct operator interaction as we help address significant reservoir challenges by fine-tuning fluid systems through our chemistry applications. Additionally, we are aligning with service companies that have taken an approach to differentiate themselves through chemistry technology and in turn, can benefit from greater horsepower efficiencies in proppant delivery.

"Impacting Florida Chemical, which is our Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies ("CICT") segment, global citrus markets remained in a state of undersupply during the quarter relative to historical averages. However, the potential for greater crop yields points to the prospect of relief from the inflationary cost environment of the last couple of years. There has been a considerable increase in consumer demand for natural flavors and fragrances, leading to growing market opportunities for our high-margin compounds."

Key accomplishments during the quarter include some of the updates below:

    --  Cash Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") expense in 3Q 2018 is
        now reduced by a run-rate of $28.0 million from our 4Q 2016 reference
        point, as another $2.8 million annually was removed from the prior
        quarter.
    --  Identified further structural cost saving opportunities within
        logistics, information technology systems and other administrative
        processes which will drive greater operational efficiencies going
        forward.
    --  PCM(®) platform - providing full-service, value-added fluids systems
        customized for the unique complexities of our clients' reservoirs - grew
        sequentially and now represents a majority of the domestic Energy
        Chemistry Technologies ("ECT") business.
    --  Our Global Research & Innovation Center is receiving meaningfully
        increased inbound client engagements related to reservoir challenges
        that have emerged over the past two years, namely frac hits, lower child
        well production, cost-effective remediation solutions and managing
        recycled water, all against a backdrop of driving capital efficiency
        improvements.
    --  Domestic ECT revenue held relatively flat, sequentially.
    --  Despite lower revenue in our CICT segment, it was able to expand
        adjusted EBITDA modestly compared to the second quarter.
    --  Demand for tailored, high-margin flavor and fragrance offerings are
        beginning to show a steady increase as we expected into year end and
        2019.
    --  Completed the upgrade to our Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP")
        system.

"Flotek remains focused on expanding our client base, better serving the needs of challenging and evolving industries, and solidifying new and segmented channels to market with technologically superior chemistry solutions. At the same time, we are continuing to reduce our cash and non-cash costs, and we will diligently manage our balance sheet to realize working capital benefits to drive positive operating cash flow," stated Mr. Chisholm.

3Q Financial Snapshot

    --  Revenue of $71.0 million for 3Q 2018 increased 20.1% compared to 2Q 2018
        and decreased 10.7% compared to 3Q 2017.
    --  Cash SG&A of $12.4 million for 3Q 2018 (excluding stock compensation
        expense of $2.2 million) decreased 5.3% compared to 2Q 2018 and
        decreased 25.2% compared to 3Q 2017.
    --  Net income (loss) of ($3.9) million for 3Q 2018, compared to ($75.0)
        million for 2Q 2018 and net loss from continuing operations of ($3.4)
        million for 3Q 2017.
    --  GAAP earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") of ($0.07) for 3Q 2018, compared
        to ($1.30) for 2Q 2018 and EPS from continuing operations of ($0.06) for
        3Q 2017.
    --  Adjusted EPS of ($0.06) for 3Q 2018, compared to ($0.34) for 2Q 2018 and
        adjusted EPS from continuing operations of ($0.06) for 3Q 2017.
    --  Adjusted EPS for 3Q 2018 excludes an after tax charge of $0.4 million,
        or $0.01 per share, related to a loss on sale of business and deferred
        tax asset valuation allowance. (See our Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Items
        and Non-Cash Items Impacting Earnings at the conclusion of this
        release.)
    --  Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, of $2.0 million for 3Q 2018,
        compared to ($4.0) million in 2Q 2018 and $3.3 million in 3Q 2017, a
        $6.0 million sequential improvement.
    --  Free cash flow (operating cash flow less capital expenditures) of ($6.2)
        million for 3Q 2018, compared to ($8.7) million for 2Q 2018 and $6.8
        million for 3Q 2017. This was primarily due to working capital
        investments of $6.5 million as our Days Sales Outstanding ("DSOs")
        increased, due to the growth of our foreign revenues which carry longer
        payment terms compared to our domestic revenue.
    --  Net debt position of $51.6 million at end of 3Q 2018 increased from
        $46.0 million at end of 2Q 2018, principally due to an increase in DSOs.
        We are striving to reduce net debt by year end.

Energy Chemistry Technologies Highlights ("ECT"):

    --  Third quarter revenue increased 35.8% sequentially to $53.7 million, and
        decreased 12.2% year-over-year.
    --  Revenue increased sequentially due to international CnF(®) sales and
        PCM(®) activity.
    --  Third quarter adjusted EBITDA margins increased 4.7 percentage points
        sequentially to 15.3% and decreased 3.9 percentage points
        year-over-year.
    --  The sequential increase in adjusted EBITDA was driven by higher
        international revenue and continued increase in PCM(®) activity.
    --  Third quarter incremental operating income margins increased 33.0%
        sequentially.
    --  Four new patents were granted during the third quarter 2018.

Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies Highlights ("CICT"):

    --  Third quarter revenue decreased 11.6% sequentially to $17.3 million, and
        decreased 5.5% year-over-year.
    --  Revenue decreased sequentially due to lower terpene sales, partially
        offset by an increase in flavor and fragrance and Japan.
    --  Third quarter adjusted EBITDA margins increased by 1.3 percentage points
        sequentially to 9.2% and decreased 1.0 percentage points year-over year.
    --  Third quarter adjusted EBITDA margins increased sequentially despite
        lower revenues due to higher mix of flavor and fragrance sales, and
        increased internal terpene consumption.
    --  Current focus on expanding varietal offerings through investment in
        non-thermal extraction capabilities.
    --  During the fourth quarter, realized the largest weekly sales order
        bookings year-to-date, providing visibility into 2019.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Net Debt increased $5.6 million from $46.0 million at second quarter end to $51.6 million at third quarter end, and increased $16.0 million year-over-year from $35.6 million at third quarter end 2017. Working capital requirements were $6.5 million for the third quarter 2018, as DSOs expanded primarily due to international revenue growth. Total liquidity, including cash balances, at quarter end was $17.0 million. The balance on our credit facility as of September 30, 2018 was $53.4 million, compared to $49.1 million at second quarter end 2018. We expect a positive cash benefit from working capital in the fourth quarter.

Flotek Outlook

In commenting about Flotek's outlook, Mr. Chisholm added, "As many of our peers and clients have already reported, fourth quarter domestic completion activity will contract for the energy industry. However, based on what we have seen to date this quarter, we expect that our fourth quarter domestic ECT revenue will be up sequentially from the third quarter, while our international ECT revenue will decline due to the timing and lumpiness of large orders. As a result, we believe that our total ECT revenue will decline in the high-single digit percentage range, sequentially, in the fourth quarter.

"Within CICT, there are a number of high-margin flavor orders that we expect to occur through year end and into 2019. As such, we anticipate revenues to be up mid-to-high single digits sequentially with adjusted EBITDA margins expanding by a few percentage points in the segment.

"While we have exceeded our initial expectations on cost reductions, we continue to reduce our cash and non-cash costs across the board. We have put into place further initiatives to drive lower fixed costs and greater operational efficiencies across the organization which should begin to reflect as early as the end of this year as we continue to focus on improved cash flow."

Conference Call and Presentation Details

               * Management believes that
                adjusted Net Income for the
                three and nine months ended
                September 30, 2018, and
                September 30, 2017, is useful to
                investors to assess and
                understand operating
                performance, especially when
                comparing those results with
                previous and subsequent periods.
                Management views the expenses
                noted above to be outside of the
                Company's normal operating
                results. Management analyzes
                operating results without the
                impact of the above items as an
                indicator of performance, to

               * Management believes that
                adjusted EBITDA for the three
                and nine months ended September
                30, 2018, and September 30,
                2017, is useful to investors to
                assess and understand operating
                performance, especially when
                comparing those results with
                previous and subsequent periods.
                Management views the expenses
                noted above to be outside of the
                Company's normal operating
                results. Management analyzes
                operating results without the
                impact of the above items as an
                indicator of performance, to
                identify underlying trends in
                the business and cash flow from
                continuing operations, and to
                establish operational goals.

     * Management believes that adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, and
      September 30, 2017, is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially
      when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods. Management analyzes operating results
      without the impact of the above items as an indicator of performance, to identify underlying trends in
      the business and cash flow from continuing operations, and to establish operational goals.
