Superior Energy Services Announces Second Quarter 2020 Results

HOUSTON, Aug. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Superior Energy Services, Inc. (NYSE: SPN) (the "Company") today announced a net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2020 of $58.9 million, or $3.97 per share, on revenue of $183.9 million. This compares to a net loss from continuing operations of $32.3 million, or $2.18 per share, for the first quarter of 2020, on revenue of $321.5 million and a net loss from continuing operations of $18.4 million, or $1.18 per share, for the second quarter of 2019, on revenue of $367.4 million.

The Company reported $9.1 million in severance and other related costs, and $8.6 million of merger-related transaction costs. The resulting adjusted net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2020 was $45.3 million, or $3.06 per share.

David Dunlap, President and CEO, commented, "We expected a significant reduction in oil field activity resulting from the COVID-19 related economic slow-down during the second quarter, and our sequential revenue decline of 43% was in line with those expectations.

"As we manage these troubling and uncertain times, we have prioritized our balance sheet and cost structure. Measures taken during the quarter include lower levels of spending, structural cost reductions, and disciplined operations, resulting in a 10% sequential increase of our cash balance, which grew to $278 million. Our cash balance at quarter-end does not reflect a tax refund of approximately $30 million, which was received in July.

"Despite an uncertain forward outlook, we are observing signals that oil field activity, particularly completion related operations, will increase during the second half of the year as broader economic activity improves. We expect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to persist well into the future, and we will continue to be agile in our approach as the landscape evolves."
