Trican Reports Second Quarter Results for 2021

By: Newsfile

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - July 27, 2021) - Trican Well Service Ltd. (TSX: TCW) ("Trican" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its second quarter results for 2021. The following news release should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A"), the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes of Trican for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, as well as the Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2020. All of these documents are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Consolidated revenue from continuing operations was $93.7 million in Q2 2021, a 230% increase compared to Q2 2020.

  • Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $14.2 million, compared to negative $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was positively affected by higher activity levels and a lower cost structure, as well as the recognition of $6.1 million from the Canadian Emergency Subsidy ("CES") programs (Q2 2020 - $6.5 million).

  • Net loss from continuing operations for Q2 2021 was $8.4 million (Q2 2020 - net loss from continuing operations of $27.5 million). The year-over-year improvement in Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020 was driven by the recovery in activity levels as the COVID-19 pandemic shows signs of subsiding and commodity prices recovered to sustainable levels combined with a significantly improved cost structure.

  • Financial position and liquidity:

  • Working capital of $100.4 million (December 31, 2020 - $67.5 million)

  • Cash and cash equivalents of $58.9 million (December 31, 2020 - $22.6 million)

  • At June 30, 2021 the Company had no bank debt outstanding (December 31, 2020 - nil)

  • The Company's strong balance sheet and liquidity provides significant financial flexibility to improve its competitive position and invest in profitable growth to deliver shareholder value

  • At June 30, 2021, the outstanding share balance was 255,742,962 (December 31, 2020 - 255,735,611), which includes the repurchase and cancellation of 1,006,200 shares for the six months ended June 30, 2021 at a weighted average price per share of $1.71.

  • On June 28, 2021 the Company repurchased 43,500 common shares at a weighted average price per share of $2.60 pursuant to the Company's Normal Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB"). Subsequent to June 30, 2021, the shares were returned to treasury and cancelled.

  • Following a successful trial in Q1 2021, the Company announced that it would be introducing the first fracturing fleet in Canada with CAT Tier 4 Dynamic Gas Blending ("DGB") engines that displaces up to 85% of the diesel used in a conventional pumper with clean burning natural gas, reducing carbon dioxide and particulate matter emissions, demonstrating Trican's ESG commitment and supporting our key customers in meeting their ESG goals.

Second Quarter 2021 vs First Quarter 2021 Sequential Overview

Revenue in the second quarter of 2021 decreased 37%, or $54.3 million, from first quarter 2021 revenue levels. The second quarter experienced decreased activity levels compared to the previous quarter as a result of typical seasonal spring break up conditions. However, continued strong commodity price performance in the second quarter of 2021, cooperative weather conditions and increasing focus by our customers on level loading their full year well completion activities drove generally higher activity levels in the WCSB than anticipated.

The average rig count of 84 for Q2 2021 was sequentially lower than Q1 2021 levels but was significantly stronger than the same period last year. This provided a positive backdrop for the quarter, somewhat muting the typical seasonal downturn in activity related to spring break up conditions which limit movement in the field.

Demand for pressure pumping services in the second quarter remained strong as our core customers were relatively active with their completion programs. Proppant volumes pumped decreased by 22% sequentially (Q2 2021 - 260,000 tonnes vs Q1 2021 - 334,000 tonnes) but the decline on a sequential basis was significantly smaller than the 82% sequential decline during the same period in 2020. The Company secured a significant amount of pad-based work in Q2 2021 which aided in our efforts to conduct efficient logistics operations and minimized the impact that spring break up can have on down time as we travel between customer job sites. Trican maintained six hydraulic fracturing crews through the second quarter, although utilization decreased to 42% from 81% in the prior period. Utilization of dual fuel pumpers was prioritized through the quarter, supporting customer ESG and cost control objectives through a reduction in the amount of diesel used in favour of cleaner burning natural gas. The field trials of the Tier 4 DGB pumper that displaces up to 85% of diesel with natural gas continued successfully and Trican will use this operating data to better design and build the 30,000 HHP Tier 4 DGB fleet upgrade that was announced in the prior quarter for delivery in the fall of 2021.

Cementing had a robust second quarter, with activity higher than anticipated due to the resilient rig count. Activity skewed towards smaller jobs, anchored by high levels of abandonment work. Tonnage pumped per job decreased approximately 10% in line with the change in job type. Coiled tubing also had a busy second quarter, with operating days only decreasing by 12% sequentially, with steady utilization driven by ranging operations and first call work for a number of core customers. Sharp cost control minimized the impact of the modestly lower revenue in both these service lines, preserving margins.

Q2 2021 is typically our most challenging quarter due to the seasonal effects of spring break up and, as expected, most key financial metrics decreased compared to Q1 2021. However, stronger industry activity combined with continued focus on profitability, including sharp cost control, resulted in the generation of positive Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter after normalizing for the recognition of $6.1 million from CES programs in the quarter.

Gross loss and adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2021 were $0.2 million and $14.2 million, a decline against Q1 2021 results of $11.2 million gross profit and $27.3 million adjusted EBITDA. Net loss of $7.9 million in Q2 was lower than the $6.0 million net profit in Q1 2021. The second quarter is the weakest quarter on the calendar due to spring break up conditions, however, strong cost control, particularly in management of personnel, third party charges and equipment maintenance, was key to producing a positive adjusted EBITDA, and minimizing net loss. Trican recognized $6.1 million (Q1 2021 - $5.5 million) from the CES programs in the quarter.

OUTLOOK

Trican's outlook for the balance of the 2021 year is positive. We expect that customers will continue to exercise discipline in their capital allocation as they seek to improve returns to shareholders, but our view is that Canadian producers are much further along the cost curve relative to their US peers given the uniquely challenging market conditions in Canada over the last 5 years, and are therefore more likely to spend capital. Commodity prices will fluctuate in the near term in reaction to daily market events such as OPEC deliberations or concerns over a resurgence of COVID-19, but we believe that the fundamentals point to a second half with steady utilization that will deliver stronger year over year results.

The early Q3 2021 rig count has continued with the strong momentum generated in Q2 2021, and we expect the rig count to be similar to Q1 2021 of this year. Comparisons in rig count need to consider the continued drive for efficiency that has dominated the oilfield service sector in the last few years, but particularly in the last 12-15 months that were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. An example of these improvements can be seen in the advancements in drilling and completion techniques that continue to push the metres drilled per well higher. Average metres drilled per well increased from 2,952 metres for January to May 2020 to 3,370 metres per well for the same period in 2021 (source: Nickles Daily Oil Bulletin). The increase in metres drilled per well drives higher demand for pressure pumping services, magnifying the increase in rig count relative to prior years.

Our customers are recognizing that the market is tightening and are looking to secure equipment and crews now to ensure the success of their capital programs in the upcoming fall and winter seasons.

Pricing for our Services

Trican has been vocal about the need for higher pricing in the pressure pumping sector. The sector has been challenged by successive years of weak or negative returns on capital, creating an environment that is not sustainable. A sustainable industry needs to earn reasonable returns on capital in order to reinvest in their asset base and allow for development of technologies that help customers meet their goals.

We have been successful in achieving modest pricing gains although less than our 10% target. Inflation has been largely limited to fuel as gains from a lower US to Canadian dollar exchange rate were enough to offset increases in the price of parts and products sourced outside Canada. We expect that inflationary pressures will start to become more acute into the fall and winter season on our major cost categories, particularly on wages as the industry seeks to ramp up activity.

The improvement in commodity prices is a much needed relief for all players in the industry, and we will continue to work with our customers to achieve a level of pricing that delivers a sustainable return to Trican while meeting our customer's need for safe, efficient and environmentally conscious pressure pumping services.

Capital Expenditures and Divestitures

Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $17.0 million ($10.2 million during Q2 2021) with approximately half directed to growth capital and half to sustaining and infrastructure capital. These capital expenditures were funded from cash flows from continuing operations of $44.8 million as well as from proceeds generated on the sale of our software business and surplus or obsolete assets which together totalled $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Trican announced in Q2 2021 that it will deliver a 30,000 HHP Tier 4 DGB engine powered fracturing fleet to the market in Q4 2021. The Tier 4 engines powering this fleet substitute up to 85% of diesel consumption with cleaner burning natural gas, a key metric for many forward-thinking companies in meeting their ESG targets. Customer response has been favourable and Trican is prepared to commit additional capital to the conversion of existing Tier 2 diesel-powered fleets to Tier 4 DGB engines if internal capital return metrics can be achieved on the capital investment required.

There are no material changes expected to the previously announced $40 million capital budget for 2021. The capital budget is expected to be fully funded from available cash resources and free cash flow generated through the year.

We will continue to manage our balance sheet prudently, ensuring financial returns are commensurate with any balance sheet risk assumed. Our ability to generate strong operating cash flows and our financial flexibility will provide required capital to allow for selective investments that meet our return hurdle rate, including ongoing participation in our NCIB program.

Hydraulic Fracturing Asset Requirements

Trican's hydraulic fracturing equipment is specifically designed to meet the demands of the higher intensity regions of the WCSB, including the Montney, Duvernay and Deep Basin formations. These regions account for approximately 80% of the required hydraulic horsepower demand in Canada. Additionally, Trican's fleet also includes an industry leading 170,000 HHP of conventional dual fuel engine fracturing pumps, which displace higher particulate diesel fuel with cleaner burning natural gas. The existing dual fuel fleet will be complemented by an additional 30,000 HHP when the Tier 4 DGB fleet is introduced to the market in Q4 2021. These investments reflect Trican's commitment to becoming an industry leader in ESG practices by reducing the environmental footprint of our operations.

The Company's fleet of hydraulic fracturing pumps at June 30, 2021, is presented in the table below:

  At June 30, 2021
Fracturing Fleet:Type of PumpPumps (#)HHP% of Fleet
Continuous Duty2,700 / 3,000HHP127347,40061 %
Mid Tier2,500HHP89222,50039 %
Legacy Tier2,250HHP--- %
Total Fracturing Fleet  216569,900 

 

Primary Objectives

The goal remains to achieve top quartile return on invested capital in our sector. Our primary objectives are:

  • Strengthen Existing Businesses: Maintain our market leading position in fracturing and cementing service lines and strengthen auxiliary service lines, specifically coiled tubing.

  • Environmental, Social, and Governance: Deepen the integration of ESG into our business to improve value for our stakeholders. We will differentiate with new technologies to reduce our environmental impact. We will build strong community relationships in the areas we live and work in.

  • Shareholder Return: Continue our disciplined investment into future growth, ensuring full-cycle return hurdles can be met before investing in new equipment and sell surplus capital equipment, further strengthening the balance sheet.

  • Cost Control and Efficiency Gains: Control and reduce costs for ourselves and our client through efficiency improvements and scale.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Certain terms in this News Release, including adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA percentage, do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by IFRS and therefore, are considered non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP term and has been reconciled to profit / (loss) for the applicable financial periods, being the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with IFRS. Management relies on adjusted EBITDA to better translate historical variability in our principal business activities into future forecasts. By isolating incremental items from net income, including income / expense items related to how the Company chooses to manage financing elements of the business, management can better predict future financial results from our principal business activities. The items included in this calculation have been specifically identified as they are either non-cash in nature, subject to significant volatility between periods, and / or not relevant to our principal business activities. Items adjusted in the non-GAAP calculation of adjusted EBITDA, are as follows:

  • Non-cash expenditures, including depreciation, amortization, impairment of non-financial assets, and equity-settled share-based compensation;

  • Consideration as to how we chose to generate financial income and incur financial expenses, including foreign exchange expenses and finance costs;

  • Taxation in various jurisdictions; and

  • Other income / expense which generally result from the disposition of equipment, as these transactions generally do not reflect quarterly operational field activity.
