Management Commentary

"NexTier's second quarter performance in an extremely challenging market demonstrates we can consistently deliver on our commitments through solid execution," said Robert Drummond, President and Chief Executive Officer of NexTier. "During the quarter, U.S. producers abruptly halted much of their activity and production in response to economic shutdowns resulting from COVID-19. Our quick and decisive actions around cost control, continued focus on service quality, and the enhanced strength of our overall platform through the deployment of NexHub, our integrated digital technologies including remote monitoring capabilities, are evident in our financial performance. As we continue to navigate the current market environment, our proactive actions to improve service delivery, increase efficiency and reduce costs further differentiate NexTier and enhance its ability to compete in any environment."

"We delivered adjusted EBITDA decrementals that were meaningfully ahead of our guidance, completion fleet market share at the high-end of our forecast, and increased our cash balance by $23 million," said Kenny Pucheu, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "As the market rapidly changed, we reacted quickly to restructure our organization to be even more lean and nimble, enhancing NexTier's ability to generate free cash flow and leading returns as the market eventually recovers. Our results and financial health demonstrate that NexTier is a business partner our customers can rely on over the long haul."

"While future activity remains highly uncertain, we are managing what is within our control, while maintaining an intense focus on NexTier's market readiness," continued Mr. Drummond. "Our ability to respond quickly and efficiently in a recovery is led by the capabilities of our world-class team, flexibility of our balance sheet, readiness of our asset base, and the further evolution of our innovation program. With the hard work and commitment of our entire team, we are further evolving NexTier's position as a leading completions platform."

Second Quarter 2020 Management Adjustments

Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2020 includes management adjustments of approximately $33.1 million consisting primarily of $18.9 million in market-driven severance and restructuring costs incurred as a result of significant declines in crude oil prices resulting from demand destruction from the COVID-19 pandemic and global oversupply, $5.1 million of non-cash stock compensation expense, $14.0 million of merger and integration costs, partially offset by gains of $5.0 million, which includes a net gain associated with the make-whole provision on the Basic notes received as part of the Well Support Services divestiture completed in March 2020.

Completion Services

Revenue in our Completion Services segment totaled $179.0 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $512.9 million in the first quarter of 2020. A sharp decrease in utilization, combined with price reductions in all basins, led to a significant decline in revenue in all service lines due to the global oil supply and demand imbalance and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Adjusted Gross Profit totaled $31.7 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $97.9 million in the first quarter of 2020. Net loss totaled $46.9 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to net loss of $13.1 million in the first quarter of 2020.

The Company had an average of 11 fully-utilized fracturing fleets in the second quarter of 2020. When taking only fracturing and bundled wireline into account, annualized Adjusted Gross Profit per fully-utilized fracturing fleet totaled $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $13.4 million in the first quarter of 2020.

Well Construction and Intervention Services

Revenue in our Well Construction and Intervention ("WC&I") Services segment, totaled $17.3 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $56.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. Revenue decreased 70% as a result of a sharp declines in activity in both our Coil Tubing and Cementing services lines, combined with pricing reductions in all basins, resulting from unprecedented declines in market activity. Adjusted Gross Profit totaled $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $8.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. Net loss totaled $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to net income of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2020.

Well Support Services

The Company completed the divestiture of its Well Support Services segment on March 9, 2020. As a result, there was no contribution from this business during the second quarter of 2020, and results for the first quarter of 2020 for this segment reflect operations from January 1, 2020 through the date of sale. Subsequent to this divestiture, the Company's reportable segments are (i) Completion Services and (ii) Well Construction and Intervention Services.

Balance Sheet and Capital

Total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2020 totaled $336.7 million, net of debt discounts and deferred finance costs and excluding lease obligations. As of June 30, 2020, total available liquidity was $430.5 million, comprised of cash and equivalents of $337.1 million, and $93.4 million of available borrowing capacity under our asset-based credit facility.

Total operating cash flow was $61.9 million and cash flow used in investing activities was $36.4 million, resulting in free cash flow of $25.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. Excluding cash used for merger and integration related costs of $13.0 million, and for market related severance and restructuring cash costs of $14.6 million, combined Adjusted free cash flow((1)) totaled $53.0 million in the second quarter of 2020.

NexTier continues to expect its 2020 total capital expenditures to be between $100 million and $120 million, subject to market conditions. Capital expenditures in 2020 will be driven by strategic innovation investments and maintenance capital expenditures. Capital expenditures during the first half of 2020 were primarily driven by the delivery of certain strategic innovation investments, with second half of 2020 spending expected to be mainly driven by maintenance.

Integration Update

On October 31, 2019, Keane and C&J completed their business combination and concurrent with closing, Keane, as the parent company, was renamed NexTier. Keane was determined to be the accounting acquirer in the merger, and as a result, the historical financial statements of Keane, prepared under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), for the periods prior to the merger are considered to be the historical financial statements of NexTier.

The Company has now fully completed its integration program related to the merger between Keane and C&J. The Company's targeted run-rate cost synergies of $125 million were achieved in April 2020, and ERP system integration was completed in the second quarter of 2020.

"I commend our team for completing a world-class integration process, including the achievement of increased target cost synergies more than 6 months ahead of original schedule, all while upholding our commitment to customers," said Mr. Drummond.

Coronavirus Monitoring and Planning

The Company is monitoring the spread and impact of the coronavirus closely, and is implementing measures in accordance with local directives, as well as internal policies, to protect employees and limit business interruption. These measures include restriction on travel and employee contact in certain regions, employee education, enhanced customer and supplier communication, alternative sourcing, and other measures. The Company continues to assess its mitigation plans for further and prolonged impact from the coronavirus. Additional information on the Company's response to the coronavirus can be found in its periodic reports that are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     (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 the
                      Company believes is useful to analysts and
                      investors to evaluate its ongoing results of
                      operations, when considered alongside GAAP
                      measures such as net income and operating
                      income.




          Non-GAAP financial measures include Adjusted
           EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net
           Income (loss), free cash flow, Adjusted free
           cash flow, adjusted SG&A, annualized adjusted
           gross profit per fully-utilized fracturing
           fleet, and adjusted EBITDA decremental. 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 Adjusted
           EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted SG&A,
           Adjusted Net Income(loss) and adjusted EBITDA
           decremental provide helpful information to
           analysts and investors to facilitate a
           comparison of its operating performance to
           that of other companies.  The Company
           believes free cash flow and Adjusted free
           cash flow is important to investors in that
           it provides a useful measure to assess
           management's effectiveness in the areas of
           profitability and capital management.
           Annualized Gross Profit per fully-utilized
           fracturing fleet is used to evaluate the
           operating performance of the business line
           for comparable periods, and the Company
           believes it is important as an indicator of
           operating performance of our fracturing and
           bundled wireline product line because it
           excludes the effects of the capital structure
           and certain non-cash items from the product
           line's operating results.  For a
           reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures,
           please see the tables at the end of this
           press release.




                     Non-GAAP Measure Definitions: Adjusted EBITDA
                      is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to
                      eliminate the impact of interest, income
                      taxes, depreciation and amortization, along
                      with certain items management does not
                      consider in assessing ongoing performance.
                      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 Gross Profit at
                      the segment level is not considered to be a
                      non-GAAP financial measure as it is our
                      segment measure of profit or loss and is
                      required to be disclosed under GAAP pursuant
                      to ASC 280. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is
                      defined as net income (loss) plus the after-
                      tax amount of merger/transaction-related
                      costs and other non-routine items. Adjusted
                      SG&A is defined as selling, general and
                      administrative expenses adjusted for
                      severance and business divestiture costs,
                      merger/transaction-related costs, and other
                      non-routine items. Free cash flow is defined
                      as the net increase (decrease) in cash and
                      cash equivalents before financing activities,
                      including share repurchase activity. Adjusted
                      free cash flow adjusts free cash flow for
                      certain management adjustments. Annualized
                      Adjusted Gross Profit per fully-utilized
                      fleet, is a non-GAAP measure and is defined
                      as (i) revenue less cost of services
                      attributable to the fracturing and bundled
                      wireline product line, further adjusted to
                      eliminate items in cost of services that
                      management does not consider in assessing
                      ongoing performance for the fracturing and
                      bundled wireline product line, (ii) divided
                      by the fully-utilized fracturing and bundled
                      wireline fleets (average deployed fleets
                      multiplied by fleet utilization) per quarter,
                      and then (iii) multiplied by four. Adjusted
                      EBITDA decremental is calculated by dividing
                      (i) the difference between first quarter
                      Adjusted EBITDA and second quarter Adjusted
                      EBITDA; by (ii) the difference between first
                      quarter Revenue and second quarter Revenue.
