Scott Bender, President and CEO of Cactus, commented, “Our industry-leading technology and continued ability to execute placed Cactus in an excellent position to capitalize on the cyclical market recovery that is now underway. As such, Cactus achieved record Product market share(1) during the fourth quarter, as we supplied wellhead equipment for approximately 43% of the U.S. land rigs in operation. Full year and fourth quarter 2020 results highlighted our ability to generate substantial free cash flow and maintain strong margins even in challenging markets.
“Looking to the first quarter of 2021, we expect further gains in rigs followed will benefit our Product business. Additionally, we have witnessed meaningful sequential growth in Rental activity to start the year as customers return to higher-end suppliers with a focus on safety and technology. We expect double digit revenue growth on a percentage basis across all our business lines sequentially during the first quarter, even when accounting for the impact of the adverse weather witnessed in recent weeks.
“In addition to the increased activity witnessed during the fourth quarter, there are a number of positive developments unfolding for Cactus. The macroeconomic environment and associated demand for our products and services is clearly improving in the U.S., as noted by our early 2021 outlook. On the R&D front, we are currently in the late stages of developing technologies specifically designed to reduce the environmental impact of flow control equipment and assist our customers in realizing their ESG-related goals. Additionally, we made our first shipments of equipment to the Middle East in January 2021, which should provide opportunities for growth in the region this year.”
Mr. Bender concluded, “Our performance and recent developments provide grounds for optimism about the trajectory of the business. As always, we will operate with a focus on margins, returns, and creating value for our shareholders.”

Gross margin30.8 %44.6 %37.3 %

Fourth quarter 2020 product revenue increased $7.2 million, or 20.0%, sequentially, as sales of wellhead and production related equipment increased primarily due to higher drilling activity and increased market share in the U.S. Gross profit decreased $2.7 million, or 17.0%, sequentially, with margins decreasing 1,380 basis points driven largely by a $5.2 million decrease in credits related to tariff refunds. Absent these credits, gross margins would have increased approximately 100 basis points sequentially.

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.

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.
