Item 2.02 | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On May 8, 2023, Nine Energy Service, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release providing information on its results of operations and financial condition for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information under this Item 2.02 and in Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K are being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information under this Item 2.02 and in Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
On May 5, 2023, at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), as further described below in Item 5.07, the Company’s stockholders approved the Second Amendment (the “Incentive Plan Amendment”) to the Nine Energy Service, Inc. 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective February 28, 2017 and as further amended effective March 5, 2021 (the “Incentive Plan”). Previously, subject to the approval by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved the Incentive Plan Amendment, which (i) increases the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued under the Incentive Plan by 2,000,000 shares, (ii) prohibits share recycling with respect to options and stock appreciation rights, (iii) prohibits the payment of dividends on unvested awards for all equity award types, and (iv) clarifies that the vesting of time-based and performance-based equity awards will not be automatically accelerated in connection with a “Corporate Change” (as defined in the Incentive Plan).
The Incentive Plan is a long-term incentive plan pursuant to which awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance awards, restricted stock units, bonus stock, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards and cash awards, may be granted to certain employees and other service providers of the Company and its subsidiaries. It is not possible to determine specific amounts and types of awards that may be granted to eligible participants under the Incentive Plan subsequent to the Annual Meeting because the grant and payment of such awards is subject to the discretion of the Board’s Nominating, Governance and Compensation Committee.
The foregoing description of the Incentive Plan Amendment is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Incentive Plan Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein. In addition, a description of the material terms of the Incentive Plan Amendment and the Incentive Plan was included in the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 8, 2023 (the “Proxy Statement”).
Item 5.07 | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
On May 5, 2023, the Company held the Annual Meeting, at which the Company’s stockholders were requested to: (1) elect the three nominees named in the Proxy Statement to serve on the Board as Class II Directors until the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified, (2) ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, and (3) approve the Incentive Plan Amendment.

W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Nine Energy Service, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), previously adopted the Plan pursuant to which the Company is authorized to grant equity and equity-based incentive awards to certain employees and other service providers of the Company and its subsidiaries;
WHEREAS, Paragraph XVII of the Plan provides that the Board of Directors of the Company (the Board) may amend the Plan from time to time, including to increase the aggregate maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan with the approval of the Companys stockholders;
WHEREAS, the Board desires to amend the plan to (i) increase the aggregate maximum number of shares common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company available for issuance under the Plan by 2,000,000 shares, (ii) prohibit the recycling of shares withheld to pay the exercise price and tax withholding on options and stock appreciation rights, (iii) prohibit the payment of dividends and dividend equivalents prior to the vesting of the underlying award and (iv) clarify that the vesting of time-based and performance-based equity awards will not be automatically accelerated in connection with a Corporate Change, in each case, subject to the approval of the Companys stockholders; and
WHEREAS, the Board has determined that it is desirable and in the best interests of the Company to amend the Plan in the manner contemplated hereby, subject to approval by the Companys stockholders at the Companys upcoming annual meeting to be held on May 5, 2023 (the Annual Meeting).
NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan shall be amended as follows, effective as of the Effective Date:

Exhibit 99.1
Nine Energy Service Announces First Quarter 2023 Results
| Revenue, net loss and adjusted EBITDAA of $163.4 million, $(6.1) million and $25.0 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2023 |
| For the first quarter of 2023 the Company generated ROICB of 16.2% |
| Total liquidity position of $47.4 million as of March 31, 2023 |
HOUSTON Nine Energy Service, Inc. (Nine or the Company) (NYSE: NINE) reported first quarter 2023 revenues of $163.4 million, net loss of $(6.1) million, or $(0.19) per diluted share and $(0.19) per basic share, and adjusted EBITDA of $25.0 million. The Companys net loss in the first quarter of 2023 includes the impact of fees and expenses incurred in connection with its public offering of units and other refinancing activities in January. The Company had provided original first quarter 2023 revenue guidance between $160.0 and $165.0 million, with actual results falling within the provided range.
First quarter results were as expected said Ann Fox, President and Chief Executive Officer, Nine Energy Service, with revenue within our original guidance.
We have seen a softening in the market due largely to the decline in natural gas prices over the past several months, resulting in a decrease in activity and pricing thus far in 2023 versus Q4 levels. Operationally, our cementing service line continues to be a strong performer, and we remain very excited about this service line. We continue to believe we have one of the top completion tool portfolios in the U.S. We increased the total number of StingerTM Dissolvable plugs sold by approximately 23%, due in large part to a significant international sale, and increased completion tool revenue by approximately 7%, in each case, quarter-over-quarter. Wireline and coiled tubing markets remain fragmented and highly competitive but play a very important role in the completions process and customer relationships.
Recessionary fears in the global market are affecting commodity prices, which have been erratic over the last several months. I do believe there will continue to be numerous factors that will impact commodity prices; however, I remain optimistic on the outlook for the energy sector with both OPECs and U.S. oil producers demonstrated commitment to capital discipline.
Looking ahead, U.S. rig and frac crew counts are good proxies for both our revenue outlook and potential pricing leverage. Activity levels thus far in Q2 are down, and we continue to see some pricing pressure from select customers, especially in the Northeast and Haynesville. As a result of this, we expect Q2 revenue to be down slightly sequentially to Q1.
We have purposely designed our business to be capital light, which reduces capital allocation risk, as well as diversified in terms of service lines, geography, and commodity exposure. We continue to develop and look for new technologies to expand our tool portfolio, as well as constantly improve our current offerings. Our priorities are unchanged. We are focused on generating free cash flowc, which would be used towards de-levering. While 2023 has not been the growth market we originally anticipated at the end of 2022, we have demonstrated our ability to navigate through all market cycles and quickly increase earnings in conjunction with activity growth.
Operating Results
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company reported revenues of $163.4 million, gross profit of $26.5 million and adjusted gross profitD of $36.3 million. During the first quarter, the Company generated ROIC of 16.2%.
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company reported general and administrative expense of $19.7 million. Depreciation and amortization expense in the first quarter of 2023 was $10.3 million.
The Companys tax provision for the first quarter of 2023 was approximately $0.9 million. The provision for 2023 is the result of our tax position in state and non-U.S. tax jurisdictions.
Liquidity and Capital Expenditures
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company reported net cash provided by operating activities of $4.0 million. Capital expenditures totaled $5.0 million during the first quarter of 2023.
As of March 31, 2023, Nines cash and cash equivalents were $21.4 million, and the Company had $26.0 million of availability under the revolving credit facility, resulting in a total liquidity position of $47.4 million as of March 31, 2023. On March 31, 2023, the Company had $72.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
ABCDSee end of press release for definitions of these non-GAAP measures. These measures are intended to provide additional information only and should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), gross profit, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from these measures are significant components in understanding and assessing a companys financial performance or liquidity, such as a companys cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets. Our computation of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

A | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) Units offering and other refinancing fees and expenses, (iv) loss or gain on revaluation of contingent liabilities, (v) loss or gain on the extinguishment of debt, (vi) loss or gain on the sale of subsidiaries, (vii) restructuring charges, (viii) stock-based compensation and cash award expense, (ix) loss or gain on sale of property and equipment, and (x) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items which we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance of our business, such as legal expenses and settlement costs related to litigation outside the ordinary course of business. Management believes 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 and helps identify underlying trends in our operations that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the impairments, acquisitions and dispositions and costs that are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business. |
B | Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) is defined as after-tax net operating profit (loss), divided by average total capital. We define after-tax net operating profit (loss) as net income (loss) plus (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) Units offering and other refinancing fees and expenses, (iv) interest expense (income), (v) restructuring charges, (vi) loss (gain) on the sale of subsidiaries, (vii) loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, and (viii) the provision (benefit) for deferred income taxes. We define total capital as book value of equity (deficit) plus the book value of debt less balance sheet cash and cash equivalents. We compute the average of the current and prior period-end total capital for use in this analysis. Management believes ROIC provides useful information because it quantifies how well we generate operating income relative to the capital we have invested in our business and illustrates the profitability of a business or project taking into account the capital invested. |
C | Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) capital expenditures, (ii) payments on finance leases, (iii) debt issuance costs, (iv) payments of contingent liability, (v) payments on short-term debt, (vi) cash employment taxes related to vesting of restricted stock and stock units and (vii) the impact of foreign currency exchange on cash. |
D | Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) is defined as revenues less cost of revenues excluding depreciation and amortization. This measure differs from the GAAP definition of gross profit (loss) because we do not include the impact of depreciation and amortization, which represent non-cash expenses. Our management uses adjusted gross profit (loss) to evaluate operating performance. We prepare adjusted gross profit (loss) to eliminate the impact of depreciation and amortization because we do not consider depreciation and amortization indicative of our core operating performance. |
