Scott Bender, President and CEO of Cactus, commented, “We were pleased to achieve significant revenue growth during the quarter, meaningfully outpacing that of the U.S. rig count. In our Product business line, Cactus maintained market share(1) above 40% during the period despite continued disproportionate activity growth by private operators. Additionally, our Product revenues per rig followed was up approximately 20% on a sequential basis and we were able to improve Product margins despite inflationary cost pressures. In our Rental business line, we were pleased to see a significant increase in the uptake of our innovations, which drove above market growth in this revenue category. In addition, we delivered free cash flow well in excess of our dividend and related distributions.

“Looking ahead to the third quarter, we anticipate further gains in Product revenue and rigs followed. Additionally, we expect Rental revenues to outpace the change in U.S. completion activity for the period. Internationally, we anticipate generating our first revenue in the Middle East, where we now have Associates deployed.”

Mr. Bender concluded, “The last twelve months have showcased the Company’s ability to execute despite difficult market conditions and to generate significant free cash flow through the cycle. Based on this and our strong balance sheet, I am pleased to announce that our board has authorized an 11% increase to the regular quarterly cash dividend to $0.10 per share, highlighting our ability to increase capital returns to shareholders. We will continue to maintain our focus on generating attractive returns on capital employed.”

Gross profit decreased $0.1 million sequentially and margins decreased 90 basis points due to increased equipment reactivation costs in relation to revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)
SG&A expense for the second quarter of 2021 was $11.4 million (10.5% of revenues), compared to $9.6 million (11.4% of revenues) for the first quarter of 2021 and $8.7 million (13.1% of revenues) for the second quarter of 2020. The sequential increase was primarily due to higher payroll expenses, including an increase in non-cash performance-based stock compensation expense and a larger bonus accrual.
Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other
As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $309.1 million of cash and no bank debt outstanding. Operating cash flow was $27.5 million for the second quarter of 2021. During the second quarter, the Company made dividend payments and associated distributions of $6.8 million.
Net cash used in investing activities was $2.3 million during the second quarter of 2021, driven largely by additions to the Company’s fleet of rental equipment. For the full year 2021, the Company expects capital expenditures to be in the range of $10 to $15 million.
On June 17, 2021, Cadent Energy Partners II, L.P. (“Cadent”) transferred 0.9 million units representing limited liability company interests (“CW Units”) in Cactus Wellhead, LLC, together with the same number of shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, to various Cadent-affiliated entities. Following this, Cadent redeemed approximately 3.3 million CW Units for an equal number of shares of Class A common stock in the Company and distributed such shares to its limited partners. In connection with these events, 3.3 million CW Units and an equal number of shares of Class B common stock were cancelled. The Company received no proceeds from these events, and there was no change in the combined number of voting shares of Cactus, Inc. outstanding.

Net income, as adjusted and diluted earnings per share, as adjusted are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP. 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. 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. Net income, as adjusted, also includes certain other adjustments described below. Cactus defines diluted earnings per share, as adjusted as net income, as adjusted divided by weighted average shares outstanding, as adjusted. 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 and Adjusted EBITDA
(unaudited)

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, 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 presents EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes they provide useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.

Estimated Market Share
(unaudited)
 
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.
