Superior Drilling Products, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Results

Superior Drilling Products, Inc. (NYSE American: SDPI) (“SDP” or the “Company”), a designer and manufacturer of drilling tool technologies, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2020.

Troy Meier, Chairman and CEO, commented, “We are realizing the impact of the improvement in the industry as we add back variable costs to address improving demand. As we advanced through the fourth quarter and into 2021, we have had more activity in North America than we have seen since before the pandemic. It is encouraging to see the market improve, but more importantly, we are optimistic given the growing recognition with more operators of the Drill-N-Ream® (“DNR”), our unique, patented well bore conditioning tool. While International markets were challenged with the pandemic which restricted customers’ operations, we nonetheless continued to build market share and expanded the markets we serve. The production efficiencies which the DNR can deliver are measurable. We believe in this environment of cash conservation, the use of tools that can enhance productivity becomes an imperative for our customers. We were successful in reducing our cost structure to cash break even as we entered 2021 and expect revenue to sequentially improve from here.”

Reduced global demand for oil due to the social and economic impacts of the pandemic resulted in revenue declining $2.8 million, or 64%, when compared with the prior-year period. As global oil markets bottomed in the latter half of the year and slowly began to recover, fourth quarter revenue was unchanged sequentially. Specifically, the market in North America has begun to improve from its lows in the summer of 2020. Revenue in North America increased 8% sequentially on higher Contract Services from an increasing rig count, while International markets have lagged in the recovery.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock compensation expense and unusual items. See the attached tables for important disclosures regarding SDP’s use of Adjusted EBITDA, as well as a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA.

The cost of revenue declined approximately $1.2 million over the prior-year period reflecting lower material costs from lower volume and reduced fixed and other variable costs, specifically labor. The decline in costs was the result of actions taken to align operations with lower demand resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales was 53% compared with 48% for the prior-year period. The increase reflects lower absorption of overhead costs on reduced volume. Sequentially, on similar revenue, the cost of sales improved to 53.3% as a result of continued cost management and improved mix of products.

The 22% decline in selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A), which includes research and development projects, was primarily due to cost reduction measures related to the pandemic initiated in April 2020. The 3% decline sequentially reflected the third phase of similar cost reductions initiated in October 2020.

Net loss for the quarter was $0.6 million, showing improvement from a net loss of $1.7 million in the trailing third quarter of 2020, but down compared with fourth quarter 2019. Adjusted EBITDA(1) improved sequentially as a result of the additional cost saving measures.

The Company believes that when used in conjunction with measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure, helps in the understanding of its operating performance.

Revenue in the year ended 2020 was $10.5 million, compared with $19.0 million in 2019. Lower revenue was driven by the unfavorable impacts of COVID-19 on the demand for oil and the geopolitically driven imbalance of supply and demand in the global oil market, which resulted in a significant reduction in drilling activity globally.

Despite the decline in drilling activity, international revenue increased 43% as the DNR gained market share. Tool revenue was $7.1 million, down 42%, or $5.1 million, from the prior-year period. Contract Services revenue decreased approximately $3.5 million, or 50%, to $3.4 million for the year.

Aggressive cost reduction efforts in 2020 resulted in a $5.6 million, or 28%, decline in total operating costs compared with 2019. These measures included headcount reductions, salary reductions and the deferral of new product development initiatives.

Additionally, the Company recognized $933 thousand of loan forgiveness in 2020. Approximately $892 thousand was related to the Company’s PPP Loan and $41 thousand related to an SBA equipment loan that was forgiven as part of the CARES Act.

2020 net loss was $3.4 million, or $(0.13) per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA(1) was near breakeven for the year at $(0.1) million, or (1.3)% of sales in 2020.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Cash at the end of the year was $2.0 million, up from $1.2 million at the end of 2019. Cash used in operations in the fourth quarter of 2020 was $694 thousand, whereas for the full year 2020 the Company generated $575 thousand in cash from operations. During the fourth quarter, the Company completed a sale-leaseback transaction of its Vernal, UT property realizing net proceeds after fees of $4.2 million, of which $2.6 million was used to pay the total outstanding balance of the mortgage on the property. Long-term debt, including the current portion at December 31, 2020, was $2.8 million. The sale-leaseback transaction included a repurchase option and as a result, the Company recognized at year end a $4.2 million financial obligation related to the minimum 15-year lease of the Vernal, Utah property.

Strategy and outlook

Mr. Meier concluded, “We expect that we will grow through 2021 as global market conditions in the oil and gas industry improve. We are seeing the slow and steady rebound in the market in North America now and believe the opportunities in the International market will also gradually improve as we move through 2021. Although we do not expect that the global drill rig count will return to what it was prior to the pandemic, primarily as operators become more efficient with their production practices and are more disciplined in capital deployment, we do expect that we will continue to add new customers and further the market penetration of the DNR around the world.”

Definitions and Composition of Product/Service Revenue:

Contract Services Revenue is comprised of drill bit and other repair and manufacturing services.

Other Related Tool Revenue is comprised of royalties and fleet maintenance fees.

Tool Sales/Rental revenue is comprised of revenue from either the sale of tools or tools rented to customers.

Tool Revenue is the sum of Other Related Tool Revenue and Tool Sales/Rental revenue.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA represents net income adjusted for income taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization and other items as noted in the reconciliation table. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important supplemental measure of operating performance and uses it to assess performance and inform operating decisions. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a GAAP financial measure. The Company’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be used as a substitute for GAAP measures of performance, including net cash provided by operations, operating income and net income. The Company’s method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may vary substantially from the methods used by other companies and investors are cautioned not to rely unduly on it.
