Cactus, Inc. (NYSE: WHD) reports financial results for Q4 and full year 2023 with revenue of $274.9 million, net income of $62.1 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $100.1 million. The company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per Class A share in January 2024.
Positive
  • None.
Negative
  • None.

The financial and operating results announced by Cactus, Inc. for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 demonstrate significant growth in revenue and profitability. The reported revenue of $274.9 million and net income of $62.1 million for the fourth quarter, along with a robust net income margin of 22.6%, indicate a strong performance relative to the same period in the previous year. A critical factor contributing to this growth is the successful integration of FlexSteel, which appears to have enhanced margins and diversified revenue streams.

From a financial perspective, the adjusted EBITDA margin of 36.4% is particularly noteworthy, as it exceeds industry norms, suggesting efficient management and operational execution. The company's liquidity position is solid, with a significant cash balance and no outstanding bank debt, which offers financial flexibility and supports potential growth initiatives. The planned capital expenditures for 2024 align with the company's strategy for supply chain diversification and international expansion, indicating a proactive approach to scaling operations.

Cactus, Inc.'s strategic focus on customer service, margins and returns has culminated in setting annual records for revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, signaling strong market positioning. The company's performance in the Pressure Control and Spoolable Technologies segments reflects a balanced portfolio, capable of weathering fluctuations in U.S. land activity levels.

Despite the sequential decrease in revenue for the Spoolable Technologies segment, the modest increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins suggests an ability to manage costs effectively. The company's anticipation of flat U.S. land activity levels for the first quarter of 2024 and their initiatives to enhance margins could resonate well with investors, as these efforts may mitigate potential revenue volatility in a challenging market environment.

The energy sector is known for its cyclical nature and Cactus, Inc.'s results reflect an adeptness at navigating this landscape. The company's focus on diversifying its revenue downstream of the wellhead through the acquisition of FlexSteel is a strategic move that could reduce dependency on the more volatile upstream activities. The integration of FlexSteel is particularly relevant as it provides growth opportunities outside the traditional oil and gas markets, which is crucial in an industry facing increasing pressure to innovate and adapt to changing energy demands.

Moreover, the company's proactive approach to managing branch expenses and repair costs in response to reduced domestic activity levels demonstrates a keen understanding of the operational levers that can be pulled to maintain profitability even when market conditions are not favorable.

Operating income includes a $1.8 million loss and a $5.1 million gain during the fourth quarter of 2023 and third quarter of 2023, respectively, related to the remeasurement of the earn-out liability associated with the FlexSteel acquisition.  Both quarters also include $4.0 million of intangible amortization expense related to purchase price accounting.

Scott Bender, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Cactus, commented, “I am proud of our company's continued focus on execution as well as its integration of FlexSteel. In the fourth quarter, Adjusted EBITDA margins in both segments exceeded expectations, and we generated substantial free cash flow.”

“In the first quarter of 2024, we anticipate that U.S. land activity levels will be approximately flat from the fourth quarter of 2023. In Pressure Control, we expect a slight decline in revenues relative to the fourth quarter, as sales in that period were augmented by higher production equipment sales relative to the rig count. In Spoolable Technologies, we anticipate revenues to increase modestly on increased customer demand.”

Mr. Bender concluded, “Our continuous focus on customer service, margins and returns led us to achieve several financial milestones in 2023. Both businesses set records for annual revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. We have made substantial progress in integrating FlexSteel, our first acquisition as a public company, which has enhanced margins and diversified our revenue further downstream of the wellhead, providing growth opportunities both inside and outside of upstream oil and gas. Although current industry expectations for 2024 U.S. land drilling and completion activity are modest, we have several initiatives underway to further enhance margins and remain focused on diversifying our international revenue streams through growth in both of our segments.”

Segment Performance

Upon completion of the FlexSteel acquisition, we re-evaluated our reportable segments and now report two business segments, Pressure Control (legacy Cactus) and Spoolable Technologies (FlexSteel). Starting with Q4 2023, corporate and other expenses not directly attributable to either segment are presented separately as Corporate and Other Expenses below. These expenses were previously included within the Pressure Control segment. Prior periods presented have been recast to conform to the new presentation. Historical results reconciling the prior and new presentation from 2021 through 2023 are available on the Company's website at the following link: click here.

Pressure Control

Fourth quarter 2023 Pressure Control revenue decreased $2.0 million, or 1.1%, sequentially, as sales of wellhead and production related equipment declined primarily due to lower customer activity. Operating income increased $1.2 million, or 2.2%, sequentially, with margins increasing 100 basis points due to lower equipment repair costs and efforts to reduce our branch expenses in response to reduced domestic activity levels. Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased $1.5 million, or 2.3%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins increasing 120 basis points.

Spoolable Technologies

Fourth quarter 2023 Spoolable Technologies revenues decreased $11.0 million, or 10.4%, sequentially, due to reduced customer activity levels. Operating income decreased $11.6 million, or 29.2%, sequentially, with operating income margins decreasing 790 basis points due primarily to the quarter over quarter change in the remeasurement of the earn-out liability associated with the FlexSteel acquisition. Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased $4.5 million, or 10.2%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins increasing 10 basis points due to more favorable input costs.

Corporate and Other Expenses

Fourth quarter 2023 Corporate and Other expenses decreased $1.3 million, or 18.9%, sequentially, due to lower transaction expenses related to the FlexSteel acquisition and lower stock-based compensation expenses.

Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $133.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, no bank debt outstanding, and $216.0 million of availability on our revolving credit facility. Operating cash flow was $91.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. During the fourth quarter, the Company made dividend payments and associated distributions of $9.5 million.

Net capital expenditures were $9.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2023. Net capital expenditures for the full year of 2023 were $38.6 million. For the full year 2024, the Company expects net capital expenditures to be in the range of $45 million to $55 million, inclusive of capital directed towards supply chain diversification efforts and organic international expansion.

As of December 31, 2023, Cactus had 65,409,329 shares of Class A common stock outstanding (representing 82.3% of the total voting power) and 14,033,979 shares of Class B common stock outstanding (representing 17.7% of the total voting power).

Quarterly Dividend

Cactus, Inc. – Supplemental Information
Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted net income, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted and adjusted net income margin
(unaudited)

Adjusted net income, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted and adjusted net income margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but they are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Cactus defines adjusted net income as net income assuming Cactus, Inc. held all units in 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. Adjusted net income also includes certain other adjustments described below. Cactus defines diluted earnings per share, as adjusted as Adjusted net income divided by weighted average shares outstanding, as adjusted. Cactus defines Adjusted net income margin as Adjusted net income divided by total revenue. The Company believes this supplemental information is useful for evaluating performance period over period.

Cactus, Inc. – Supplemental Information
Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin

(unaudited)

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but 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, income tax and depreciation and amortization. Cactus defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding the other items outlined below.

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 defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. Cactus presents this supplemental information because it believes it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.

Cactus, Inc. – Supplemental Information
Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin
(unaudited)

Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but 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 Adjusted Segment EBITDA as segment operating income excluding depreciation and amortization and the other items outlined below, in each case, that are attributable to the segment.

Cactus management believes Adjusted Segment EBITDA is useful because it allows management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s segment operating performance and compare the results of its segment 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. Adjusted Segment EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s computations of Adjusted Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Cactus defines Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin as Adjusted Segment EBITDA divided by total segment revenue. Cactus presents this supplemental information because it believes it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.
