HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ranger Energy Services, Inc. (NYSE: RNGR) (“Ranger” or the “Company”) announced today its results for its fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022.

– Quarterly revenues of $123.6 million increased $0.5 million from $123.1 million in Q4 despite weather and supply chain related delays early in the quarter

– High-Spec Rig revenue grew 9% or $5.4 million sequentially with an operating income increase of $6.8 million to $7.7 million in Q1 from $0.9 million in Q4

– Capital structure simplification complete with Class A common stock our sole outstanding equity

Consolidated Financial Highlights

Quarterly revenues of $123.6 million increased $0.5 million from $123.1 million in Q4. The revenue increase is attributable to the High Specification Rigs and Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services reporting segments.

Net loss of $5.7 million decreased $30.1 million from a net income of $24.4 million in Q4. The net income decrease is attributable to the $37.2 million bargain purchase gain related to the Basic Energy Asset Acquisition in the prior quarter, partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative costs.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $9.6 million increased $0.5 million from $9.1 million in Q4. The increase was driven by the increased gross profit margins attributable to the High-Spec Rig reporting segment, partially offset by a reduction to the Wireline gross profit margin.

CEO Comments

Stuart Bodden, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are excited about our Q1 results, and in particular the velocity of the business as we exited the first quarter. The Ranger management team has been working diligently to integrate our recent acquisitions, and we made significant strides during Q1 in building right-sized and efficient operations in each of our service lines. We have also remained focused on the sale of excess assets, and we launched a concerted effort in Q1 to improve our working capital balance. All of these efforts are paying off, particularly as we move out of Q1 and into Q2.

We experienced seasonal and supply chain related issues during January and February, but Ranger finished Q1 with a strong quarterly revenue run rate of $140 million and corporate EBITDA margin of 10%. Moving into Q2, we continue to see increasing demand and a constructive pricing environment across all service lines, which, along with operational improvements in the business, are setting Ranger up for a very strong second quarter and second half of the year. Although we have experienced weather related delays in April, particularly in our Northern operations, we expect Q2 revenue to be between $135 million and $145 million with corporate EBITDA margins ranging between 10% and 12%. For full year 2022, we are increasing our guidance for revenue to be between $540 million and $580 million with full year EBITDA margins of 11% to 13%. We continue to target 15% EBITDA margins by year end.

As noted, we remain focused on excess asset sales and launched an effort in early Q1 to reduce working capital. Relative to the end of Q1, as of today we have reduced Term Loan B by $5 million and reduced our revolver draw by $13 million, for a total net debt reduction of $18 million. These improvements will be reflected in our Q2 results. Coupled with the strong performance of the business, by early 2023 we expect Ranger will have term debt of $10 million to $15 million, no revolver draw, and a positive cash balance. Depending on market conditions and availability of accretive deals, we intend to either build cash reserves in preparation for additional M&A or consider paying dividends.”

Business Segment Financial Results

High Specification Rigs

High Specification Rigs segment revenue increased by $5.4 million to $64.9 million in Q1 from $59.5 million in Q4 2021. Rig hours increased to 112,500 hours in Q1 from 111,600 hours in Q4. The increase in rig hours was coupled with an increase of $44, or 8%, in the hourly average rig rate to $577 in Q1 from $533 in Q4.

Operating income increased by $6.8 million to $7.7 million in Q1 from $0.9 million in Q4. Adjusted EBITDA increased 60%, or $5.3 million, to $14.1 million in Q1 from $8.8 million in Q4. The increase in operating income and Adjusted EBITDA was largely the result of the ongoing sequential increase in hourly rig rates.

Wireline Services

Wireline Services segment revenue decreased by $6.2 million to $38.6 million in Q1 from $44.8 million in Q4 2021. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to a decline of 2,500 completed stage counts from 9,900 in Q4 to 7,400 in Q1.

Operating loss increased $1.5 million to a loss of $4.5 million in Q1 from a loss of $3.0 million in Q4. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $2.8 million, to a loss of $1.8 million in Q1 from earnings of $1.0 million in Q4. 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.

As discussed during last quarter’s earnings call, Wireline Services’ Q1 performance was impacted by both supply chain and labor utilization issues. We are making significant adjustments on several fronts and are seeing positive impacts. The segment exited Q1 with positive Adjusted EBITDA margins and we are expecting further margin growth though Q2 and the balance of the year.

Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services

Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services segment revenue increased by $1.3 million to $20.1 million in Q1 from $18.8 million in Q4 2021. The increase in revenue was attributable to the coil tubing line of business.

Operating income decreased $1.1 million to $1.3 million in Q1 from $2.4 million in Q4. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 8%, or $0.3 million, to $3.3 million in Q1 from $3.6 million in Q4. The decrease in operating income and Adjusted EBITDA was driven by decreased gross profit margins. The sequential margin decrease is attributable primarily to low January utilization levels.

Liquidity

We ended the quarter with $10.2 million of liquidity, consisting of $6.4 million of capacity on our revolving credit facility and $3.8 million of cash.

Our current liquidity is approximately $24.2 million, which is comprised of total loan borrowing capacity of $55.9 million, partially offset by borrowings of $32.1 million and cash on hand of $0.4 million.

Debt

We ended Q1 with aggregate net debt of $92.5 million, an increase of $8.6 million, as compared to $83.9 million at the end of Q4 2021. The increase is attributable to additional borrowings from our revolving credit facility, slightly offset by payments made to term debt.

We ended Q1 with aggregate adjusted net debt⁽¹⁾ of $79.9 million, an increase of $8.7 million, as compared to $71.2 million at the end of Q4. Of our total debt balance, we consider $31.0 million to be term debt.

We had an outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility of $44.8 million at the end of Q1 compared to $27.0 million at the end of Q4.

Our current principal balance under our revolving credit facility and term loan B are $32.1 million and $6.1 million, respectively, which compares to the $44.8 million and $11.0 million at the end of Q1, resulting in total principal reductions of $17.6 million.

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 the three months ended March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, in millions:

Net Debt and Adjusted Net Debt

We believe Net Debt and Adjusted Net Debt are useful performance measures of liquidity, financial health and provides an indication of our leverage. We define Net Debt as current and long-term debt, finance leases, other financing obligations, offset by cash and cash equivalents. We define Adjusted Net Debt as Net Debt, less a facility financing lease, to be analogous to the calculation of certain financial covenants. All debt and other obligations present the principal balances outstanding as of the respective periods.

The following tables are a reconciliation of consolidated debt and cash and cash equivalents to Net Debt and Adjusted Net Debt as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:
