HOUSTON, Feb. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Independence Contract Drilling, Inc. (the "Company" or "ICD") (NYSE: ICD) today reported financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023.
Fourth quarter 2023 Highlights
-- Net loss of $26.0 million, or $1.84 per share
-- Adjusted net loss, as defined below, of $8.6 million, or $0.61 per share
-- Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, of $9.9 million, including $2.1
million of costs associated with rig reactivations and transitions
-- Adjusted net debt, as defined below, of $179.1 million
-- 14.9 average rigs working during the quarter

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company reported revenues of $45.8 million, net loss of $26.0 million, or $1.84 per share, adjusted net loss (defined below) of $8.6 million, or $0.61 per share, and adjusted EBITDA (defined below) of $9.9 million. These results compare to revenues of $60.3 million, net income of $3.5 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, adjusted net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share, and adjusted EBITDA of $18.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, and revenues of $44.2 million, net loss of $7.6 million, or $0.54 per share, adjusted net loss of $5.2 million, or $0.37 per share, and adjusted EBITDA of $12.9 million in the third quarter of 2023.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company reported revenues of $210.1 million, a net loss of $37.7 million, or $2.69 per share, an adjusted net loss of $12.5 million, or $0.89 per share, and adjusted EBITDA of $62.8 million. This compares to revenues of $186.7 million, a net loss of $65.3 million, or $5.01 per share, an adjusted net loss of $25.7 million, or $1.98 per share, and adjusted EBITDA of $43.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Chief Executive Officer Anthony Gallegos commented, "In spite of the market headwinds in 2023 associated with a declining overall rig count in our target markets, fiscal 2023 represented a period of significant accomplishments for ICD. In the Permian basin, while the overall rig count in this basin declined 15% in 2023, ICD grew its Permian rig count by more than 40% as we successfully transitioned a substantial portion of our Haynesville rigs into this market during the year. Our backlog of term contracts also increased at year end as we recently signed several attractive contracts with Permian operators, including two multi-year contracts.
During fiscal 2023, we also accelerated our 200-to-300 Series conversion program, delivering four conversions during the year and completing a fifth in January of 2024. Today, we only have one operating 200 Series rig that has not yet been converted, and we have budgeted for that conversion to occur later in 2024 depending upon customer requirements. On the technology side, as we exited 2023, over half of our operating rigs were earning revenue from some sort of technology bundle, and based upon customer demand, we expect this percentage to increase during 2024.
Looking forward into 2024, we expect to see more opportunities for ICD to drive incremental demand for our drilling rigs, even in an overall flat rig count in our target markets. Near term rig reactivations will likely be limited to rig replacement opportunities in the Permian basin, but we will also continue to evaluate opportunities in adjacent markets. With the expectations for a flatter near-term environment, we have compressed our 2024 capital expenditure budget, net of disposals, to $18.2 million, and our cash SG&A budget to $15.3 million. Strategically, although our Convertible Notes do not mature until March 2026, the refinancing window for these Convertible Notes will open later this year, and we want to be proactive in starting the process to begin reviewing potential refinancing and other strategic opportunities. Thus, our Board has appointed a special committee of independent directors to begin this review and evaluation process."
Quarterly Operational Results
In the fourth quarter of 2023, operating days increased sequentially by 11% compared to the third quarter of 2023. The Company's marketed fleet operated at 57% utilization and recorded 1,370 revenue days, compared to 1,704 revenue days in the fourth quarter of 2022, and 1,229 revenue days in the third quarter of 2023. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company also recognized early termination revenue of approximately $0.7 million. There was no early termination revenue recognized during the fourth quarter of 2023 or the fourth quarter of 2022.
Operating revenues in the fourth quarter of 2023 totaled $45.8 million, compared to $60.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $44.2 million in the third quarter of 2023. Revenue per day in the fourth quarter of 2023 was $31,508, compared to $32,778 in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $32,925 in the third quarter of 2023. Sequential decreases in revenue per day were primarily due to expiration and repricing of higher dayrate term contracts originally entered into during fiscal 2022. Revenue per day statistics exclude early termination revenue recognized during the quarter.
Operating costs in the fourth quarter of 2023 totaled $31.5 million, compared to $36.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $27.5 million in the third quarter of 2023. Fully burdened operating costs were $19,195 per day in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $18,261 in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $18,920 in the third quarter of 2023. Reported cost per day excludes reactivation costs of $2.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and Haynesville-to-Permian rig transition costs of approximately $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2023. There were no reactivation costs or rig transition costs in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Fully burdened rig operating margins in the fourth quarter of 2023 were $12,313 per day, compared to $14,517 per day in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $14,005 per day in the third quarter of 2023. The Company currently expects per day operating margins in the first quarter of 2024 to fall approximately 12% to 14% sequentially driven primarily by lower average dayrates as rigs recontract in the current market environment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of 2023 were $5.7 million (including $1.2 million of non-cash compensation), compared to $7.7 million (including $1.9 million of non-cash compensation) in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $6.9 million (including $2.0 million of non-cash compensation) in the third quarter of 2023. Cash selling, general and administrative expenses decreased sequentially due to a $1.1 million charge in the third quarter of 2023 associated with modification and extension of an existing drilling contract with a customer, which has been excluded in the Company's calculation of adjusted net loss per share and adjusted EBITDA.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company recorded interest expense of $9.8 million, including $2.6 million relating to non-cash amortization of Convertible Note debt discount and debt issuance costs. The Company has excluded this non-cash amortization when presenting adjusted net loss. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company redeemed $5.0 million of Convertible Notes at par plus accrued interest.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company reviewed its idle equipment and recorded an impairment charge of $14.7 million associated with equipment and capital spares that it determined would no longer be utilized by the Company's marketed fleet of 26 rigs.
Drilling Operations Update
The Company currently expects to operate approximately 15 net average rigs during the first quarter of 2024, with several rigs transitioning between customers during the quarter. The Company's backlog of drilling contracts with original terms of six months or longer is $82.9 million. Approximately 75% of this backlog expires in 2024. This backlog excludes rigs operating on short-term pad-to-pad drilling contracts with original terms of less than six months.
Capital Expenditures and Liquidity Update
Cash outlays for capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2023, net of asset sales and recoveries, were $2.7 million. The Company's capital expenditure budget for 2024, net of disposals, is approximately $18.2 million.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had cash on hand of $5.6 million and a revolving line of credit with availability of $20.6 million, and net working capital of $3.0 million. The Company reported adjusted net debt as of December 31, 2023 of $179.1 million, consisting of the full amount of the outstanding Convertible Notes and outstanding borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit.
The refinancing window under the Indenture governing the Company's PIK Toggle Convertible Notes due 2026 opens September 18, 2024. In this regard, ICD's Board of Directors has decided to initiate a formal review process to begin evaluating alternatives with respect to refinancing these Convertible Notes and any other strategic opportunities that present themselves in connection with this evaluation and has formed a committee of independent directors for that purpose. There can be no assurance that this process will result in the Company pursuing any particular transaction or strategic outcome.

The following table provides various financial and operational data for the Company's operations for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. This information contains non-GAAP financial measures of the Company's operating performance. The Company believes this non-GAAP information is useful because it provides a means to evaluate the operating performance of the Company on an ongoing basis using criteria that are used by the Company's management. Additionally, it highlights operating trends and aids analytical comparisons. However, this information has limitations and should not be used as an alternative to operating income (loss) or cash flow performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP, as this information excludes certain costs that may affect the Company's operating performance in future periods.

(1) Rig operating days represent the number of days the Company's rigs are earning revenue under a contract during the period, including days that standby revenue is earned. Rig operating days exclude rigs earning revenue on an early termination basis. During the three months ended
December 31, 2023 and 2022 and September 30, 2023, there were 21.3, 3.1 and 92.3 operating days in which we earned revenue on a standby basis, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were 226.1 and 30.8 operating days in which we earned revenue on
a standby basis, respectively. During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized $5.9 million of early termination revenue. There was no early termination revenue recognized during the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.
(2)
Average number of operating rigs is calculated by dividing the total number of rig operating days in the period by the total number of calendar days in the period.
(3)
Rig utilization is calculated as rig operating days divided by the total number of days the Company's marketed drilling rigs are available during the applicable period.
(4) Average revenue per operating day represents total contract drilling revenues earned during the period divided by rig operating days in the period. Excluded in calculating average revenue per operating day are revenues associated with the reimbursement of (i) out-of-pocket
costs paid by customers of $2.7 million, $4.4 million and $3.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and September 30, 2023, respectively and $12.6 million and $14.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively and (ii) early
termination revenues of zero, zero and $0.7 million three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $5.9 million and zero during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(5) Average cost per operating day represents operating costs incurred during the period divided by rig operating days in the period. The following costs are excluded in calculating average cost per operating day: (i) out-of-pocket costs paid by customers of $2.7 million, $4.4
million and $3.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $12.6 million and $14.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022; (ii) overhead costs of $0.5 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million
during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $2.2 million and $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022; (iii) reactivation costs of $2.1 million, zero and zero during the three months ended December 31,
2023 and 2022, and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $2.1 million and zero during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022; and (iv) rig decommissioning and transition costs between basins of zero, zero and $0.8 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and
2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and $4.3 million and zero during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted net debt, adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is consistent with how EBITDA is calculated under the Company's credit facility for purposes of determining the Company's compliance with various financial covenants. The Company defines "adjusted net debt" as long-term notes (excluding long-term capital leases) less cash. The Company defines "adjusted net (loss) income" as net (loss) income before: asset impairment, net; gain or loss on disposition of assets, net; amortization of debt discount; amortization of issuance costs; gain or loss on extinguishment of debt; change in fair value of embedded derivative liability, gain on extinguishment of derivative and other adjustments. The Company defines "EBITDA" as earnings (or loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and asset impairment, net and the Company defines "adjusted EBITDA" as EBITDA before stock-based compensation, gain or loss on disposition of assets, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, gain on extinguishment of derivative and other non-recurring items added back to, or subtracted from, net income for purposes of calculating EBITDA under the Company's credit facilities. Neither adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA is a measure of net (loss) income as determined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
Management believes adjusted net debt, adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are useful because they allow the Company's stockholders to more effectively evaluate the Company's operating performance and compliance with various financial covenants under the Company's credit facility and compare the results of the Company's operations from period to period and against the Company's peers without regard to the Company's financing methods or capital structure or non-recurring, non-cash transactions. The Company excludes the items listed above from net income (loss) in calculating adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within the Company's industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. None of adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA should be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), the most closely comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's return on assets, cost of capital and tax structure. The Company's presentation of adjusted net debt, adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that the Company's results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. The Company's computations of adjusted net debt, adjusted net (loss) income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
