Revenue declined 4.7% in Q2, as lower Subsea Products and Subsea Services revenue outweighed Well Construction growth. Six-month revenue rose 1.9%, led by Well Construction and Services. Six-month cost of sales fell to 72.7% of revenue from 75.4%, which management attributed mainly to favorable product mix and transformation savings.
Cash used in operating activities was $41.6 million in the first half, versus $20.2 million used in the prior-year period. The company attributed the outflow primarily to receivables and inventory movements. Capital expenditures were $15.6 million. Cash and cash equivalents were $236.5 million at June 30, down from $264.8 million at year-end; short-term investments were $18.8 million. Current assets were $755.2 million and current liabilities $88.1 million. The filing reports no outstanding borrowings; the prior ABL facility was terminated in 2022. Approximately $4.2 million of cash was held as collateral for letters of credit.
Total assets were $979.7 million and stockholders’ equity $879.4 million at June 30. Management said existing cash, investments and anticipated operating cash flows were expected to meet ordinary-course cash needs for the next 12 months.
Material changes and unusual items
- Q2 Subsea Products revenue decreased about $4.9 million year over year; Well Construction revenue increased about $2.2 million. For the first half, Well Construction revenue grew about $7.9 million while Subsea Products fell about $5.0 million.
- First-half gains on property sales were $7.4 million, including gains associated with Houston facility sales. Restructuring expense was $1.1 million for the half; Q2 included a $2.3 million release of a Well Construction restructuring liability, partly offset by other charges.
- The company identified prior-period accounting errors involving an indemnification receivable and duplicate billing. It revised prior-period financial information, reducing 2022 full-year net income from $0.4 million to a $1.6 million net loss. Management concluded the errors were not material to prior periods individually or in aggregate, but said their aggregate effect would have been material to current interim results and anticipated full-year results. The revisions did not affect reported operating cash flows.
- Backlog was approximately $252.0 million at June 30, up from $235.1 million at March 31 and $240.9 million at December 31. Backlog includes some bookings that do not meet the filing’s criteria for remaining performance obligations; those obligations were $55.4 million, with 85.3% expected to be recognized over the next 12 months.
Outlook, risks and contingencies
The filing provides no specific financial guidance. Management noted that oil prices and offshore activity had declined in the first half of 2023 and that lower commodity prices or customer contract changes could hurt results. Other cited exposures include international operations, foreign-exchange movements, inflation, interest rates, supply-chain disruption, regulation and geopolitical developments. The company does not materially hedge currency exposure.
After quarter-end, Dril-Quip acquired Great North Wellhead and Frac on July 31 for C$105 million, subject to customary adjustments, with potential earnouts of up to C$30 million tied to revenue growth in 2024 and 2025. It also received a $16.8 million tax refund in July and reported another $5.4 million approved refund still being processed.
FMC Technologies’ trade-secrets lawsuit resulted in a jury verdict for Dril-Quip in 2021; FMC appealed, and Dril-Quip said it would continue defending the matter. Management did not expect ordinary-course legal actions to have a material adverse effect. The company reported no material changes to its 2022 Form 10-K risk factors and said disclosure controls were effective as of June 30.
