Company Reaffirms 2024 Outlook
HOUSTON, May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Drilling Tools International Corp., (NASDAQ: DTI) ("DTI" or the "Company"), a global oilfield services company that designs, engineers, manufactures and provides a differentiated, rental-focused offering of tools for use in onshore and offshore horizontal and directional drilling operations, as well as other cutting-edge solutions across the well life cycle, today reported 2024 first quarter results and reaffirmed its 2024 full year outlook.
DTI generated total consolidated revenue of $37 million in the first quarter of 2024. First quarter Tool Rental net revenue was approximately $30 million and Product Sales net revenue totaled $7 million. First quarter operating expenses were $31.8 million and operating income was $5.1 million. Net Income and Adjusted Net Income(1) for the first quarter were $3.1 million and $3.8 million, respectively. First quarter Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $10.9 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow(1)(2) was $4.7 million. As of March 31, 2024, DTI had approximately $14 million of cash and cash equivalents, net debt of $11 million, and an undrawn $80 million ABL Credit Facility.
Wayne Prejean, CEO of DTI, stated, "We are pleased to report first quarter results that were in line with our expectations despite the current competitive and flat rig count environment. Highlights for the first quarter included entering into a definitive agreement to acquire Superior Drilling Products, Inc. (NYSE American: SDPI) ("SDP"); the closing of our Deep Casing Tools acquisition; and boosting our balance sheet by securing a new $25 million Term Loan, which was fully drawn as of March 31, 2024, and amending and extending our ABL Credit Facility. We are very excited about our growth opportunities organically and through acquisitions, both domestically and internationally, throughout 2024 and into 2025."
Prejean added, "We are reaffirming our full-year 2024 outlook. As we disclosed in our 2023 year-end earnings release, our current 2024 outlook includes our recent Deep Casing Tools acquisition's estimated impact on 2024 results but does not include any contributions from the pending acquisition of Superior Drilling Products. We will update 2024 guidance to include SDP once we close the transaction."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Net Income measures. Each of the metrics are "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net earnings or cash flows as determined by GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, (iii) restructuring charges, (iv) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and (v) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance of our business.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to supplement the GAAP measures in order 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. We exclude the items listed above in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, and we define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less Gross Capital Expenditures. We use Adjusted Free Cash Flow as a financial performance measure used for planning, forecasting, and evaluating our performance. We believe that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is useful to enable investors and others to perform comparisons of current and historical performance of the Company. As a performance measure, rather than a liquidity measure, the most closely comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss).
We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as consolidated net income (loss) adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) restructuring charges, (iii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and (iv) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business. We believe Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is useful because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance.
We define Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per share as the quotient of adjusted net income (loss) and diluted weighted average common shares. We believe that Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per share provides useful information to investors because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance on a diluted per share basis.
The following tables present a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Net Income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated:
