See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" at the end of this release for a discussion of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share, levered and unlevered free cash flow, net working capital, net debt, net leverage ratio and their reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). We have not provided reconciliations of our future expectations as to adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA margin as such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts.

Chris Baker, KLX President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are very pleased with our third quarter results. Our teams did an exceptional job of managing costs, maintaining price and maximizing utilization as we managed forces outside of our control, specifically a volatile macro environment driven by continued commodity price volatility and rig count declines.

"KLX operates in every major basin in the U.S., and we touch every part of the well cycle: drilling, completion and production services," added Baker. "Regionally, we delivered our strongest results in the Rockies during the third quarter, as we have a market-leading franchise in that basin. Additionally, our consolidated third quarter revenue outperformed the underlying 10% decline in rig count and our adjusted EBITDA margin exceeded our prior guidance range. We achieved these strong results by focusing on pricing discipline and cost controls to maximize margins, which ultimately translated into strong free cash flow generation."

Baker continued, "Commodity prices remain highly supportive of underlying activity and are at levels which should drive incremental year-over-year activity as operators begin finalizing their drilling and completion programs for 2024. Moreover, we launched and commercialized numerous new proprietary products during the third quarter, including the PhantM Dissolvable Frac Plug and our patent-pending extended reach tool, Oracle SRT (Smart Reach Technology), which are rapidly gaining market acceptance. We believe these new products and our continued dedication to developing leading edge technology will be material differentiators for KLX in 2024 and beyond.

"Looking ahead, we anticipate fourth quarter margins will hold up well despite weaker seasonal activity and operator budget exhaustion typical of the fourth quarter. As a result, we expect strong full year 2023 adjusted EBITDA between $140 million to $150 million. In summary, we are encouraged by our growth prospects and the market fundamentals for the U.S. onshore drilling, completion and production markets expected in 2024 and beyond," concluded Baker.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Revenue for the third quarter of 2023 totaled $220.6 million, which was consistent with third quarter 2022 revenue of $221.6 million. The flat revenue reflects a strong quarter in the Rocky Mountains business segment and an increase in Southwest due to the addition of the Greene's business, offsetting the slowdown in activity in Northeast/Mid-Con. On a product line basis, drilling, completion, production and intervention services contributed approximately 24%, 51%, 15% and 10%, respectively, to revenues for the third quarter of 2023. We experienced a shift in revenue mix with a greater contribution from our rentals and frac rentals product service lines. Utilization was down almost across the board driven by a 15% lower rig count and 10% lower frac spread count relative to third quarter 2022 but was offset by predominantly increased pricing.

Net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $7.6 million, compared to third quarter 2022 net income of $11.1 million. Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $8.2 million, compared to third quarter 2022 adjusted net income of $12.8 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 decreased 1% to $36.7 million, compared to third quarter 2022 adjusted EBITDA of $37.1 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the third quarter of 2023 was 16.6%, compared to third quarter 2022 adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.7%. Our adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin were flat compared to third quarter 2022, but we saw a shift in geographic mix with a more material contribution from the Rocky Mountains and Southwest as well as a 18% reduction in Corporate and other costs.

Third Quarter 2023 Segment Results

The Company reports revenue, operating income and adjusted EBITDA through three geographic business segments: Rocky Mountains, Southwest and Northeast/Mid-Con.

• Rocky Mountains: Revenue, operating income and adjusted EBITDA for the Rocky Mountains segment was $77.0 million, $17.7 million and $23.3 million, respectively, for the third quarter of 2023. Third quarter revenue represents a 16% increase over the third quarter of 2022 largely driven by an increase in activity in the Bakken offset by a decrease in activity in the DJ Basin and Wyoming. Segment operating income and adjusted EBITDA increased 51% and 35% over the third quarter of 2022, driven by reduced white space and a positive shift in product service mix, with a greater contribution from higher margin services, including frac rentals, coiled tubing and rentals.
• Southwest: Revenue, operating income and adjusted EBITDA for the Southwest segment, which includes the Permian and South Texas, was $77.8 million, $4.8 million and $11.8 million, respectively, for the third quarter of 2023. Third quarter revenue represents a 14% increase over the third quarter of 2022, operating income decreased by 8% and adjusted EBITDA increased by 16%, largely driven by strength in rentals, frac rentals and downhole production services, driven by our latest generation PhantM Dissolvable Frac Plug, partially offset by relative softness in coiled tubing and directional drilling.
• Northeast/Mid-Con: Revenue, operating income and adjusted EBITDA for the Northeast/Mid-Con segment was $65.8 million, $5.2 million and $11.4 million, respectively, for the third quarter of 2023. Third quarter revenue represents a 24% decrease over the third quarter of 2022 and operating income and adjusted EBITDA declined 70% and 46% respectively, largely due to increased white space for our completions and intervention businesses, including coiled tubing, pressure pumping and tech services.

The following is a tabular summary of revenue, operating income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023, the second quarter ended June 30, 2023 and the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 ($ in millions).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share, unlevered and levered free cash flow, net working capital, net debt and net leverage ratio measures. Each of the metrics are "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net earnings or cash flows as determined by GAAP. We define adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, (iii) restructuring charges, (iv) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (v) costs incurred related to the COVID-19 pandemic and (vi) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is used to calculate the Company's leverage ratio, consistent with the terms of the Company's ABL Facility.

We believe adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above in arriving at adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. 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 components of adjusted EBITDA. Our computations of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Adjusted EBITDA margin is not a measure of net earnings or cash flows as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as the quotient of adjusted EBITDA and total revenue. We believe adjusted EBITDA margin is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure, as a percentage of revenues.

We define adjusted net income (loss) as consolidated net income (loss) adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) restructuring charges, (iii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iv) costs incurred related to the COVID-19 pandemic and (v) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business. We believe adjusted net income (loss) is useful because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance.

We define adjusted net income (loss) margin as the quotient of adjusted net income (loss) and total revenue. We believe adjusted net income (loss) margin is useful because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance.

We define adjusted diluted earnings per share as the quotient of adjusted net income (loss) and diluted weighted average common shares. We believe that adjusted diluted earnings per share provides useful information to investors because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance on a diluted per share basis.

We define unlevered free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and proceeds from sale of property and equipment plus interest expense. Our management uses unlevered free cash flow to assess the Company's liquidity and ability to repay maturing debt, fund operations and make additional investments. We believe that unlevered free cash flow provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's liquidity, including its ability to reduce net debt, make strategic investments and repurchase stock.

We define levered free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and proceeds from sale of property and equipment. Our management uses levered free cash flow to assess the Company's liquidity and ability to repay maturing debt, fund operations and make additional investments. We believe that levered free cash flow provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's liquidity, including its ability to reduce net debt, make strategic investments and repurchase stock.

Net working capital is calculated as current assets, excluding cash, less current liabilities, excluding accrued interest and finance lease obligations. We believe that net working capital provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's liquidity.

We define net debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We believe that net debt provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's indebtedness.

We define net leverage ratio as net debt divided by quarterly annualized adjusted EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA over the last twelve months. We believe that net leverage ratio provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's indebtedness in relation to its operating performance.

The following tables present a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated:
