“Our solid performance despite the challenging operating environment is a testament to our team’s expertise and resilience, and our ability to continue to adapt to our customers’ evolving needs. We enhanced our business mix and our team is taking advantage of improving industry fundamentals and expanded operational capabilities. We achieved broad-based growth across our regions and product lines, with particularly notable growth in the areas of production, subsea well access and well intervention and integrity services. Of note, Segment EBITDA margin was up sequentially in each of our geography-based operating segments and Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 120 basis points sequentially, all reflecting an improved business mix. We also continue to realize the benefits of our investments to develop innovative, proprietary solutions to support our customers’ energy transition goals. We remain focused on expanding our portfolio of carbon reduction solutions to help lead our industry’s journey toward a lower carbon future.
“We are successfully implementing a thoughtful and comprehensive integration plan and have already made significant progress bringing the legacy Frank’s and Expro’s businesses together in order to capture the full potential of our combined platform. Through the careful and deliberate implementation of our integration plan, we are creating a stronger, more flexible business with a more competitive cost structure that will allow us to significantly expand our margins. Efficiencies are already being realized across our business and customers are experiencing the benefits of our expanded offering. During fourth quarter 2021 we identified and actioned cost savings that will allow us to capture more than
“In addition to the
“We ended 2021 in a strong financial position with bright prospects for growth and profitability. Driven by performance and powered by our people, we remain confident in our ability to deliver on the significant opportunities ahead. In 2022, we intend to further cement our position as a full-cycle energy services leader while driving strong financial performance and significant value creation for our shareholders.
“Looking ahead, we expect that the first quarter of 2022 will show continued solid financial performance, tempered by the typical seasonally weaker activity levels in the Northern Hemisphere. As previously disclosed, we expect that revenue in the first quarter of 2022 will be relatively flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.
“Also consistent with comments on our third quarter earnings conference call, we continue to see strengthening signals of a multiyear recovery, with favorable macro fundamentals that are supported by a steady recovery in oil and gas demand, modest near-term supply additions and commodity prices that will support incremental international activity and increased investment in production capacity by our customers. In the near- to intermediate-term, we expect that revenue momentum will be driven by an increase in shorter-cycle, faster-return production optimization projects, which will most directly benefit our well flow management and well intervention and integrity product lines. We also expect to see a strong recovery in offshore development in the second half of the year for which our well construction and subsea well access businesses are very well positioned.
“We expect that Adjusted EBITDA margin in the first quarter of 2022 will be 12
Notable Awards and Achievements
As a demonstration of the combined company’s strengthening portfolio, during the just completed fourth quarter, Expro successfully completed a site integration test of a legacy Expro Electro H Subsea Umbilical with a legacy Frank’s TRS Sheaveless COBRA® Control Line Manipulator Arm. There was strong customer interest in this combination of legacy Expro’s and legacy Frank’s technologies and one customer has now committed to using these combined offerings in a key operation in the Eastern Mediterranean in the first quarter of 2022. This combination of technologies provides deployment efficiency while improving overall operational safety.
Expro’s first automated tong system, iTONG, was also commissioned during the fourth quarter. This system uses artificial intelligence to optimize tubular make ups and will facilitate a step change in drilling rig efficiency and safety, reducing manpower requirements and improving well integrity. This “one touch” automated system is well aligned with the Company’s drive for automation and will build on Expro’s record of significantly enhancing rig performance.
Further demonstrating Expro’s commitment to new technologies, in the fourth quarter the Company also announced the launch of Galea™, the world’s first fully autonomous well intervention system designed to maximize production while reducing intervention costs, HSE risks and environmental impact.
Another milestone was achieved in the fourth quarter of 2021 in our MENA business when Expro passed a half million hours of data transmission. Expro’s ability to provide a complete data solution allowed the customer’s reservoir and production teams to optimize production from its wells. In particular, expedited data transmission, real-time monitoring and close collaboration allowed both Expro and the customer to effectively mitigate the consequences of unexpected changes in production.
Also in the fourth quarter of 2021, Expro delivered a customized well intervention solution for a deviated well in

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this release that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this release include statements, estimates and projections regarding the Company’s future business strategy and prospects for growth, cash flows and liquidity, financial strategy, budget, projections and operating results. These statements are based on certain assumptions made by the Company based on management’s experience, expectations and perception of historical trends, current conditions, anticipated future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable and are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that these assumptions are accurate or that any of these expectations will be achieved (in full or at all) or will prove to have been correct. Moreover, such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. Such assumptions, risks and uncertainties include the outcome and results of the integration process associated with the Merger, the amount, nature and timing of capital expenditures, the availability and terms of capital, the level of activity in the oil and gas industry, volatility of oil and gas prices, unique risks associated with offshore operations, political, economic and regulatory uncertainties in international operations, the ability to develop new technologies and products, the ability to protect intellectual property rights, the ability to employ and retain skilled and qualified workers, the level of competition in the Company’s industry, global or national health concerns, including health epidemics, such as COVID-19 and any variants thereof, the possibility of a swift and material decline in global crude oil demand and crude oil prices for an uncertain period of time, future actions of foreign oil producers such as

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, contribution, contribution margin, support costs, adjusted cash flow from operations, cash conversion, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, which may be used periodically by management when discussing financial results with investors and analysts. The accompanying schedules of this press release provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management believes these metrics provide additional information relative to the performance of the business. These metrics are commonly employed by financial analysts and investors to evaluate the operating and financial performance of Expro from period to period and to compare such performance with the performance of other publicly traded companies within the industry. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, contribution, contribution margin, support costs, adjusted cash flow from operations cash conversion, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Expro’s results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, contribution, contribution margin, support costs, adjusted cash flow from operations, cash conversion, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share may be defined differently by other companies in the industry, the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
Expro defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted for (a) income tax expense (benefit), (b) depreciation and amortization expense, (c) impairment expense, (d) severance and other expense, net, (e) stock-based compensation expense, (f) merger and integration expense, (g) gain on disposal of assets, (h) other income, net, (i) interest and finance expense (income), net, and (j) foreign exchange losses. Adjusted EBITDA margin reflects Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of total revenue.
Contribution is defined as total revenue less cost of revenue excluding indirect support costs included in cost of revenue. Contribution margin is defined as contribution divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage. Support costs is defined as indirect costs attributable to supporting the activities of the operating segments, research and engineering expenses and product line management costs included in cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, and general and administrative expense, excluding depreciation and amortization, which represent costs of running the corporate head office and other central functions, including logistics, sales and marketing and health and safety, and does not include foreign exchange gains or losses and other non-routine expenses. Adjusted cash flow from operations is defined as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for cash paid during the period for interest, net, severance and other expense and merger and integration expense. Cash conversion is defined as Adjusted cash flow from operations divided by Adjusted EBITDA, expressed as a percentage.
The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) as net loss before merger and integration expense, severance and other expense, New Facility expense, stock-based compensation expense, asset impairments, and gain on disposal of assets, adjusted for corresponding tax benefits of these items. The Company defines adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share as net loss per diluted share before merger and integration expense, severance and other expense, New Facility expense, stock-based compensation expense, asset impairments, and gain on disposal of assets, adjusted for corresponding tax benefits of these items, divided by diluted weighted average common shares.

Expro evaluates its business segment operating performance using Segment Revenue, Segment EBITDA and Segment EBITDA margin. Expro’s management believes Segment EBITDA and Segment EBITDA margin are useful operating performance measures as they exclude transactions not related to its core operating activities and corporate costs and allows Expro to meaningfully analyze the trends and performance of its core operations by segment as well as to make decisions regarding the allocation of resources to segments. |
|
|
|
|
(2) |
Expro defines Segment EBITDA margin as Segment EBITDA divided by Segment Revenue, expressed as a percentage. |
|
|
|
|
(3) |
Expro defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage. |
|
|
|
|
(4) |
Corporate costs include the costs of running our corporate head office and other central functions that support the operating segments, including research, engineering and development, logistics, sales and marketing and health and safety and are not attributable to a particular operating segment. |
