Taylor, stated,“As we projected on our first quarter earnings call held at the end of April, the market dislocations caused by the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic have been unprecedented. The impact on the energy industry has been extreme due to the rapid demand destruction for crude oil and the resulting inventory builds across the globe. U.S. land based drilling and completion activity fell sharply during the quarter, with the U.S. rig count declining 64% to a historical low of 265 rigs operating at the close of the second quarter.“Our Offshore/Manufactured Products segment proved resilient during the second quarter, with revenues increasing 4% due to an increase in project-driven revenues, partially offset by reduced short-cycle sales. Segment EBITDA margins also improved 149 basis points sequentially, reflecting the benefit of closing out projects in backlog efficiently along with cost reduction initiatives implemented. Backlog totaled $235 million as of June 30, 2020, a decline of 12% sequentially. Our bookings totaled $64 million, yielding a book-to-bill ratio for the second quarter of 0.7x, bringing the year-to-date ratio to 0.8x.“Revenues in our Completion Services and Downhole Technologies businesses declined 56% and 64% sequentially – driven by the steep reduction in industry activity in the U.S. shale play regions due to the low crude oil price environment. During the second quarter, both businesses implemented significant cost reduction measures in response to the material downturn in activity, leading to $4.9 million of severance and downsizing charges being incurred. The full benefit of these cost reduction measures should be realized during the third quarter.“Importantly, we generated $39 million of cash flow from operations and bought in $12 million principal amount of our convertible senior notes at a 51% discount to par value. Cash on-hand at June 30 totaled $54 million while borrowings outstanding under our credit facility totaled $71 million. We amended our bank credit facility during the second quarter securing a covenant holiday through March 30, 2021 in exchange for reducing the facility size to $200 million. We believe that these actions have stabilized the Company during a very difficult period. We will continue to closely manage our debt, working capital and cash flow generation in the quarters to come.”BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS(See Segment Data tables)Offshore/Manufactured ProductsOffshore/Manufactured Products reported revenues of $94.9 million and Segment EBITDA (Note B) of $15.0 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared to revenues of $91.2 million and Segment EBITDA of $13.1 million reported in the first quarter of 2020. Revenues increased 4% sequentially, due to an increase in the segment’s project-driven revenue, which was partially offset by lower demand for U.S. land-based short-cycle products. Segment EBITDA increased 15%, driven by the higher revenues, efficient completion of projects in backlog and benefits from cost control measures implemented. Segment EBITDA margin in the second quarter of 2020 was 16% compared to 14% in the first quarter of 2020.Backlog totaled $235 million at June 30, 2020, a decrease of 12% sequentially and 17% year-over-year.

A. The term Consolidated EBITDA consists of net loss plus net interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and adjustments for certain other items such as non-cash asset impairment charges and gain on extinguishment of 1.50% convertible senior notes. Consolidated EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net loss or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Additionally, Consolidated EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company has included Consolidated EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that Consolidated EBITDA provides useful information regarding its ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures and provides investors a helpful measure for comparing its operating performance with the performance of other companies that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. The Company uses Consolidated EBITDA to compare and to monitor the performance of the Company and its business segments to other comparable public companies and as a benchmark for the award of incentive compensation under its annual incentive compensation plan. The table above sets forth a reconciliation of Consolidated EBITDA to net loss, which is the most directly comparable measure of financial performance calculated under generally accepted accounting principles.
