Financial performance and position
Amounts below are in U.S. dollars; financial statement figures are in millions unless stated otherwise.
- Third quarter 2019: Revenue was $108.2 million, up 16.1% from $93.3 million. Product revenue rose to $81.9 million from $63.2 million; services were $17.9 million versus $17.5 million; leasing fell to $8.5 million from $12.5 million.
- First nine months: Revenue was $306.4 million, up 6.6% from $287.3 million. Product revenue was $224.5 million, services $52.9 million and leasing $28.9 million.
- Profitability: Q3 operating income was $0.2 million, versus an operating loss of $14.1 million a year earlier; net loss narrowed to $1.3 million from $10.4 million. For the nine months, operating loss was $3.3 million versus $23.9 million, and net loss was $5.7 million versus $20.8 million. Basic and diluted loss per share were $0.04 for Q3 and $0.16 for the nine months.
- Margins: Cost of sales was 70.3% of revenue in Q3 versus 76.3% a year earlier, and 71.6% for the nine months versus 76.6%. The corresponding gross margins were approximately 29.7% and 28.4%, compared with 23.7% and 23.4% in the prior-year periods.
- Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP): $15.3 million for Q3 versus $0.8 million; $38.0 million for the nine months versus $10.4 million. The company cautions this measure is not a substitute for GAAP results or operating cash flow.
- Cash flow and capital spending: Nine-month operating cash flow was $6.6 million, down from $32.6 million. Capital expenditures were $8.6 million versus $26.7 million. Cash flow after capital expenditures was approximately negative $2.0 million, compared with positive $5.9 million in the prior-year period. Cash declined by $5.0 million during the nine months to $413.1 million.
- Liquidity and debt: Current assets were $878.7 million and current liabilities $96.5 million at September 30.

The company reported compliance with facility covenants.
- Equity and backlog: Stockholders’ equity was $1,092.7 million. Product backlog was $250.7 million, down from $322.2 million at June 30, 2019.
Material changes and unusual items
- Revenue growth was led by subsea equipment and stronger activity in the Eastern Hemisphere and Asia-Pacific; lower leasing revenue reflected reduced rental-tool utilization. Nine-month Western Hemisphere product revenue was down, principally due to lower demand for subsea wellheads in Brazil.
- Q3 included a $2.0 million release of contingent consideration recorded in cost of sales and a $0.3 million gain on asset sales. The nine-month period included a $1.5 million gain on asset sales, primarily from the sale of the Youngsville, Louisiana facility.
- Q3 stock-based compensation was $7.7 million, including $4.3 million tied to 2016 performance share awards exceeding performance criteria. Nine-month stock compensation was $15.7 million.
- The company recorded an out-of-period adjustment in Q3 for a contract performance obligation satisfied in Q2: revenue increased by $3.4 million and net income decreased by $1.5 million. Management said the error and its correction were not material to the affected prior-period statements or the Q3 statements.
- Q3 bookings included negative $67.8 million of cancellation/revision adjustments. The Ca Rong Do project offshore Vietnam, awarded at approximately $82 million, was terminated in Q3 and excluded from September backlog.
- Foreign currency translation reduced comprehensive income by $10.3 million over the nine months. The company also reported foreign-exchange gains of $2.1 million in pretax income over that period.
Outlook, risks and contingencies
- Management expected continued pressure on oil and gas prices and drilling activity. It noted customers were replenishing some inventories as demand improved, but warned that prolonged weak commodity prices could delay or cancel projects and lead to impairment charges.
- The company achieved approximately $43 million in annualized cost savings under its global transformation plan, reaching the lower end of its $40–$50 million target. It said savings were expected to continue through the remainder of 2019. This is cost-savings commentary, not formal earnings guidance.
- Management cautioned that some of the 84 offshore rigs under construction could be postponed or cancelled. The filing also identifies exposure to oil-price volatility, customer contract changes, tariffs and trade restrictions, foreign exchange, international political risks, regulation and customer creditworthiness.
- A Brazilian tax dispute involves assessments totaling approximately $13.0 million. The subsidiary deposited approximately $8.8 million with the court; management considered success probable and recorded no liability.
- The company reported no material changes to risk factors from its 2018 Form 10-K. It stated disclosure controls were effective and there was no material change in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter.
