Full Year 2018 Highlights

  • Reported revenues of $544.1 million, up 59.5% year-over-year;
  • Generated income from operations of $177.7 million; up 100.0% year-over-year;
  • Reported net income of $150.3 million; and
  • Generated Adjusted EBITDA(2) and related margin(3) of $212.6 million and 39.1%, up 89.6% year-over-year and 620 basis points, respectively.

Scott Bender, President and CEO of Cactus, commented, "2018 was a tremendous year for Cactus. Our profitability during the fourth quarter was generally consistent with our expectations despite the dramatic decline in oil prices throughout the fourth quarter, and we were pleased with the resiliency demonstrated by our business. Drilling related activity showed a slight increase, while completions related revenue declined more than anticipated as customers deferred activity due to budget exhaustion. The overall margin profile of our business remained strong notwithstanding the more pronounced than usual seasonal slowdown in our Field Service and Other business.

"Despite pulling forward both capital spending and additions to inventory prior to year-end due to concerns over tariffs, the fourth quarter and full year 2018 highlighted our ability to generate significant free cash flow and attractive returns on capital.

"Although the market is anticipating a pullback in the U.S. rig count in 2019, we believe the strength of our customer base will moderate the impact of a potential decline in drilling related activity. For the first quarter of 2019, we currently anticipate that revenue across all our business lines will increase relative to the fourth quarter of 2018 based on the rebound in activity we have seen during the first two months of the year.

Mr. Bender concluded, "We continue to make progress toward the commercialization of our new frac innovations, many of which have been successfully trialed in the field with customers. Initial adoption has been encouraging, and we expect investments in these offerings will drive further growth in our Rental business in the second half of 2019. Such growth initiatives will be pursued at levels consistent with and supportive of our attractive return on capital profile.”

Gross profit $ 33,123 $ 32,572 $ 19,662
Gross margin 42.0 % 41.0 % 34.4 %
 

Fourth quarter 2018 product revenue decreased $0.5 million, or 0.6%, sequentially, as lower sales of production related equipment more than offset an increase in sales of wellhead equipment. Gross profit increased $0.6 million sequentially with margins improving 100 basis points primarily due to product mix and more favorable supply chain execution. Cactus’ estimated market share(4) was 27.8% in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to 27.4% during the third quarter of 2018.

Gross margin 56.6 % 59.8 % 49.6 %
 

Fourth quarter 2018 rental revenue decreased $6.9 million, or 18.2%, sequentially, as budget exhaustion and the steep decline in oil prices during the quarter led to reduced customer completion activity. Gross profit decreased $5.1 million sequentially with gross profit margins down 320 basis points, primarily due to depreciation expense representing a higher proportion of revenue than during the previous quarter.

Gross profit $ 3,598 $ 7,826 $ 3,575
Gross margin 12.1 % 23.6 % 15.4 %
 

Fourth quarter 2018 field service and other revenue decreased $3.4 million, or 10.3%, sequentially, as lower completion activity coupled with fourth quarter seasonality drove a decline in associated billable hours and ancillary services. Gross profit decreased $4.2 million sequentially due to lower labor utilization during the quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG&A”)

SG&A for fourth quarter 2018 was $10.5 million (7.5% of revenues), compared to $11.1 million (7.3% of revenues) for third quarter 2018 and $6.6 million (6.3% of revenues) for fourth quarter 2017. The sequential decrease is primarily related to lower professional and legal fees.

Liquidity and Capital Expenditures

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $70.8 million of cash on hand, no bank debt outstanding and the full $75.0 million of capacity available under the Company’s revolving credit facility. Operating cash flow was $44.8 million for fourth quarter 2018 and $167.2 million for 2018, reflecting strong operating results.

Net capital expenditures for fourth quarter 2018 were $13.7 million, driven largely by additions to the Company’s fleet of rental assets. Net capital expenditures for 2018 were $68.2 million.

For the full year 2019, the Company expects capital expenditures to be in the range of $60 to $65 million.

Other Items

As of December 31, 2018, Cactus had 37,653,630 shares of Class A common stock outstanding (representing 50.3% of the total voting power) and 37,236,142 shares of Class B common stock outstanding (representing 49.7% of the total voting power).

Net income, as adjusted and diluted earnings per share, as adjusted are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Cactus defines net income, as adjusted as net income assuming Cactus, Inc. held all units in Cactus LLC, its operating subsidiary, at the beginning of the period, with the resulting additional income tax expense related to the incremental income attributable to Cactus, Inc. The Company believes this supplemental information is useful for evaluating performance period over period.
(5) Reflects the removal of the term loan interest expense recorded during first quarter 2018 as the term loan was repaid in full in conjunction with the IPO.
(6) Reflects the removal of the loss on debt extinguishment recorded in first quarter 2018 in conjunction with the IPO related to the write-off of the unamortized balance of deferred financing costs and original issue discount.
(7) Represents the additional stock-based compensation expense that would have been recorded during the first quarter assuming the restricted stock unit awards were issued as of January 1, 2018.
(8)

Represents the increase in tax expense as though Cactus, Inc. owned 100% of Cactus LLC at the beginning of the period, calculated as the difference in tax expense recorded during each period and what would have been recorded based on a corporate effective tax rate of 24.0% on income before income taxes for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, 22.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2018, and 24.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 reflects the adjustment necessary to derive a 24.0% corporate effective tax rate for the full year.

(9) Reflects 37,654 and 37,647 shares of Class A common stock plus 37,236 and 37,243 additional shares for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, respectively, as if the Class B common stock was exchanged and canceled for Class A common stock at the beginning of the period, plus the dilutive effect of 431 and 408 shares for restricted stock unit awards for the three month periods ended December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018 respectively. Reflects 37,654 shares of Class A common stock plus 37,236 additional shares for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, as if the Class B common stock was exchanged and canceled for Class A common stock at the beginning of the period, plus the dilutive effect of 366 shares for restricted stock unit awards for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.

(2)   EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Cactus defines EBITDA as net income excluding net interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. Cactus defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding (gain) loss on debt extinguishment and stock-based compensation.
 
Cactus management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful because they allow management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period without regard to financing methods or capital structure, or other items that impact comparability of financial results from period to period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s computations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Cactus presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes they provide useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.

Baker Hughes U.S. onshore rig count quarterly average 1,048 1,029 900
Market share (4) 27.8% 27.4% 26.0%
(4)   Market share represents the average number of active U.S. onshore rigs Cactus followed (which Cactus defines as the number of active U.S. onshore drilling rigs to which it was the primary provider of wellhead products and corresponding services during drilling) as of mid-month for each of the three months in the applicable quarter divided by the Baker Hughes U.S. onshore rig count quarterly average. Cactus believes that comparing the total number of active U.S. onshore rigs to which it was providing its products and services at a given time to the number of active U.S. onshore rigs during the same period provides Cactus with a reasonable approximation of its market share with respect to wellhead products sold and the corresponding services it provides.
