MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"Early into 2024, we've continued to advance our multi-year value creation strategy as we position Newpark to become a market-leading, pure-play specialty rental business serving the global worksite access market," stated Matthew Lanigan, President and CEO of Newpark. "Our focus on asset optimization, operational excellence and returns-focused capital deployment contributed to 210 basis points of Adjusted EBITDA margin expansion in the first quarter, including contributions from both our Industrial Solutions and Fluids Systems segments as well as our corporate office."

"Within our Industrial Solutions business, our first quarter performance reflects a combination of improved operating leverage and a more favorable sales mix, resulting in segment EBITDA margin of nearly 37%, an increase of 150 basis points versus the prior-year period," continued Lanigan. "While segment revenue declined versus the prior-year period due to the timing of product sales supporting customer projects, rental demand conditions strengthened as the quarter progressed, with rental volumes reaching record levels entering the second quarter. We also continued to expand our rental fleet during the first quarter, positioning us to capitalize on strengthening demand conditions."

"Within our Fluids Systems business, a combination of stronger international activity, together with the benefits of recent cost actions, contributed to 120 basis points of EBITDA margin expansion," continued Lanigan. "Our revenues from international operations increased 19% versus the prior year, supported by strong growth from both our Eastern Hemisphere and Canadian operations."

"We are continuing to work diligently through the Fluids Systems strategic review and remain focused on having the process substantially concluded by mid-year 2024," noted Lanigan. "By simplifying our business, and focusing exclusively on worksite access industrial solutions, we intend to build a higher margin, more competitive business capable of delivering superior returns on invested capital through the cycle."

BUSINESS UPDATE

Newpark is engaged in a multi-year business transformation plan designed to drive organic commercial growth within targeted, higher-margin product and rental markets; improve asset optimization and organizational efficiency; and pursue a capital allocation strategy that prioritizes investments in opportunities with superior return profiles, together with a programmatic return of capital program.

During the first quarter 2024, Newpark continued to deliver on its business transformation plan, highlighted by the following (all comparisons versus the prior year period unless otherwise noted):

    --  Accelerating worksite access solutions demand entering the second
        quarter 2024. Industrial Solutions revenue from specialty rental and
        services decreased 3% for the first quarter of 2024, as declines from
        oil and gas, pipeline and other sectors was partially offset by 7%
        revenue growth in the utilities sector. Following a subdued start to
        2024, rental and service activity strengthened later in the first
        quarter, setting up for a strong second quarter.
    --  Fluids Systems segment continues momentum in international operations.
        The segment delivered strong international revenue growth in the first
        quarter of 2024, with international operations contributing 75% of
        Fluids Systems revenue in the quarter. Newpark's Eastern Hemisphere
        revenue increased 24% to $68 million and Canada increased 10% to $21
        million.
    --  Delivered margin expansion across reporting segments. Consolidated gross
        margin increased 280 basis points year-over-year to 20.4%, benefitting
        from a higher contribution from Industrial Solutions and improving
        Fluids Systems fundamentals. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved 210 basis
        points to 12.6% in the first quarter of 2024. Both reporting segments
        delivered margin expansion compared to the prior year period, with
        Industrial Solutions segment Adjusted EBITDA margin increasing 150 basis
        points to 36.8%, and Fluids Systems segment Adjusted EBITDA margin
        increasing 120 basis points to 7.2%. Margin expansion was attributable
        to a combination of improved asset optimization and operating expense
        leverage in Industrial Solutions, along with the positive impacts of
        improved pricing and restructuring actions in Fluids Systems.
    --  Robust return of capital program. In February 2024, the Board of
        Directors increased the authorization for repurchases of common stock up
        to $50.0 million. In 2023, Newpark repurchased more than $30 million of
        its common equity, representing more than 7% of total shares
        outstanding. No share repurchases were made in the first quarter of
        2024.
    --  Driving operational efficiency through streamlining efforts. During the
        first quarter of 2024, the Company continued to take actions to
        streamline our overhead structure across both segments and the corporate
        office, generating approximately $3 million in annual cost savings.
    --  Strategic Review of Fluids Process Underway. The Company remains
        actively engaged in a strategic review of its Fluids Systems segment and
        anticipates the review will be substantially completed by mid-year 2024.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(Unaudited)

To help understand the Company's financial performance, the Company has supplemented its financial results that it provides in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") with non-GAAP financial measures. Such financial measures include Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Net Debt, and Net Leverage.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other parties in the evaluation of our performance and liquidity with that of other companies in our industry. Management uses these measures to evaluate our operating performance, liquidity and capital structure. In addition, our incentive compensation plan measures performance based on our consolidated EBITDA, along with other factors. The methods we use to produce these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from methods used by other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

The following tables reconcile the Company's net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share calculated in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share:
