Ranger Energy Services, Inc. Announces Q4 2021 Results

March 17, 2022

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Ranger Energy Services, Inc. (NYSE: RNGR) (“Ranger” or the “Company”) announced today its results for its fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2021.

– Completed the Basic Energy asset transaction recognizing a gain on purchase of $48 million

– Revenue grew 51% sequentially, driven by inorganic growth

– Amended reporting segments post acquisitions

Consolidated Financial Highlights

Quarterly revenues of $123.1 million increased $41.4 million, or 51%, from $81.7 million in Q3. The revenue increase is attributable to the High Specification Rigs and Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services reporting segments.

Net income of $24.4 million increased $33.5 million from a net loss of $9.1 million in Q3. Net income growth was driven by a $37.2 million bargain purchase gain related to the Basic Energy Asset Acquisition (“Basic Acquisition”).

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $9.1 million increased $7.2 million from $1.9 million in Q3. The increase was driven by increased profit margins attributable to the High Spec Rigs and Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services reporting segments.

CEO Comments

Stuart Bodden, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated “We are particularly excited to share the results of our 4th quarter with you. This being the first quarter which incorporates the full contribution of both our wireline acquisitions completed mid-year and the Basic transaction which closed at the start of the 4^th quarter.

Like everyone, we are experiencing increased demand for our services and better pricing. However, supply chain and labor issues persist, and attracting new labor into the industry, in particular, remains a challenge. That said, we believe Ranger is set up for a very strong 2022.

The High Spec Rigs business continues to perform in-line with our aggressive expectations. We have become the clear market leader, demand for our services is increasing, and we have been successful in increasing price and leveraging the performance of our hi-spec rig fleet.

The Wireline business has a more competitive landscape, however both pricing and operational performance are now showing improvements. We can now see a clear path to a successful second half of the year, both from a demand and a pricing perspective.

The legacy business lines embedded in our new Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services segment were already material, successful businesses in their own right. The Basic acquisition brought several new lines of business to this segment and we have now evaluated each of these businesses for fit. We have decided not to sell any of these businesses at this time, as on review, we now believe they are all capable of generating solid returns with growth prospects beyond what we experienced in Q4 2021.

On the heels of our acquisitions, we are changing our reporting lines to provide greater transparency into our primary service lines. Our three reporting segments are now Hi-Spec Rigs, Wireline, and Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services. The High Spec Rigs segment carries over unchanged in composition and includes our production and completion related well servicing work. The Wireline segment includes production and completion related wireline work. And the Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services segment now includes our Torrent gas processing services, Coiled Tubing, Plugging and Abandonment and related Cementing Services, Rentals, and Fishing Tools.

Looking forward to Q1 of this year, we are anticipating revenue of approximately $120 million with an exit run rate of $130 million. Across the entire year, we are now expecting the pattern of margin and EBITDA development to be more weighted to the back half of 2022 than originally anticipated. For full year 2022, we expect revenues to fall within a range of $520 million – $560 million, an increase from our previous guidance of $450 million – $500 million. We expect full year EBITDA margins to range between 11% and 13% while still targeting a 15% EBITDA run rate target by year end for the company as a whole.

Finally, I will note that excess asset divestitures are on plan with a total of $8 million of already completed with expected total sales of more than $20 million.”

Business Segment Financial Results

High Specification Rigs

High Specification Rigs segment revenue increased by $29.6 million to $59.5 million in Q4 from $29.9 million in Q3 2021. The rig hours increased to 111,600 hours in Q4 from 51,200 hours in Q3. The increase in rig hours was partially offset by a decrease of $51, or 9%, in the hourly average rig rate to $533 in Q4 from $584 in Q3. Decrease in hourly average rig rate was primarily driven by the addition of the rigs acquired as part of the Basic acquisition.

Operating income increased by $0.2 million to $0.9 million in Q4 from $0.7 million in Q3. Adjusted EBITDA increased 83%, or $4.0 million, to $8.8 million in Q4 from $4.8 million in Q3. The increase in operating income and Adjusted EBITDA was driven by increased profit margins associated with the Basic rig assets.

Wireline Services

Wireline Services segment revenue decreased by $0.6 million to $44.8 million in Q4 from $45.4 million in Q3 2021. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to a decline of 1,500 completed stage counts from 11,400 in Q3 to 9,900 in Q4 for completion services.

Operating loss increased $1.7 million to a loss of $3.0 million in Q4 from a loss of $1.3 million in Q3. Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.0 million, to $1.0 million in Q4 from a break-even point in Q3. The increase in operating loss and decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by decreased profit margins within the completions business, attributable to the reduction in revenues as described above.

Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services

Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services segment revenue increased by $12.4 million to $18.8 million in Q4 from $6.4 million in Q3 2021. The increase in revenue was due to the acquisition of Basic assets, which attributed to approximately $8.5 million of the increase.

Operating income increased $2.4 million to income of $2.4 million in Q4 from a break-even point in Q3. Adjusted EBITDA increased 140%, or $2.1 million, to $3.6 million in Q4 from $1.5 million in Q3. The increase in operating income and increase in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by increased gross profit margins associated with the assets purchased in the Basic Acquisition.

Liquidity

We ended the quarter with $18.6 million of liquidity, consisting of $18.0 million of capacity available on our revolving credit facility and $0.6 million of cash. The Q4 cash ending balance of $0.6 million compares to $2.8 million at the end of Q3 2021.

Debt

We ended Q4 with aggregate net debt of $85.0 million, an increase of $14.9 million, as compared to $70.1 million at the end of Q3. The increase is attributable to a $15.0 million term loan. The term loan was utilized for general business needs subsequent to the closing of the Basic Acquisition.

We ended Q4 with aggregate adjusted net debt⁽¹⁾ of $72.3 million, an increase of $15.0 million, as compared to $57.3 million at the end of Q3. Of our total debt balance we consider $34.5 million to be term debt.

We had an outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility of $27.0 million at the end of Q4 compared to $29.7 million at the end of Q3.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(UNAUDITED)

Note Regarding Non‑GAAP Financial Measure

The Company utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes to be insightful in understanding the Company’s financial results. These financial measures, which include Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Debt, should not be construed as being more important than, or as an alternative for, comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Detailed reconciliations of these Non-GAAP financial measures to comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures have been included below and are available in the Investor Relations sections of our website at www.rangerenergy.com. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Debt should not be construed as an indication that our results will be unaffected by the items excluded from the reconciliations. Our computations of these Non-GAAP financial measures may not be identical to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure because it allows for an effective evaluation of our operating performance when compared to our peers, without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income or loss in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially within our industry depending upon accounting methods, book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are reflected in Adjusted EBITDA.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before net interest expense, income tax provision or benefit, depreciation and amortization, equity‑based compensation, acquisition-related, severance and reorganization costs, gain or loss on disposal of assets, and certain other non-cash and certain items that we do not view as indicative of our ongoing performance.

The following tables are a reconciliation of net income or loss to Adjusted EBITDA for each of the three months ended during 2021. Additionally, the information being presented reflects the updated reporting segments.
