Management Comments
Stuart Bodden, Ranger's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Ranger continued to execute at a high level, achieving near-record revenues, gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA this quarter in two of its three segments. Every quarter of solid performance by Ranger in this market validates our differentiated, production-focused service lines and underscores our resilient business model. Each of our segments excelled, reflecting our collective determination to exceed customer expectations by delivering quality assets, services and safety performance every day."
"Ranger's flagship high-spec rig business surpassed expectations again, delivering top-line growth that set yet another record for the business, with steadily expanding margins. Our Wireline segment showed marked improvement, as our decisions to streamline this business segment and focus on production oriented services are paying off, reflected in improved revenues and healthier margins. Ancillary Services also performed strongly, with coil tubing, plug-and-abandonment and Torrent service lines growing revenue nicely quarter over quarter.
"Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, we remain optimistic about our ability to continue executing at a high level in a challenging environment, with the High Specification Rigs segment leading the way. While typical seasonality and holiday impacts are expected to occur in the fourth quarter, early indications for 2025 are positive. We anticipate year-over-year growth in High Specification Rigs, continued stabilization in Wireline as the pivot to production services matures, and further contributions from Ancillary Services.
"Our production focus sets us apart and enables us to concentrate on our strategic pillars of free cash flow conversion, balance sheet strength, and returning cash to shareholders under any market conditions. We have continued to maintain zero net debt and returned over 81% of free cash flow to shareholders year to date through dividends and share buybacks, far exceeding our commitment. We've thrived as an organization through the market challenges presented over the past 18 months. As always, I remain grateful to our entire Ranger team for their dedication, which makes me as optimistic about the future as ever."
CAPITAL RETURNS AND GOVERNANCE UPDATE
Ranger has far exceeded its commitment of returning at least 25% of Free Cash Flow(2) to shareholders this year. Year to date, the Company has repurchased 1,520,300 shares of stock for a total value of $15.5 million at an average price of $10.11 per share. Since the share repurchase program's inception in 2023 through the end of the most recent quarter, the Company has repurchased a total of 3,325,800 shares, representing over 15% of shares outstanding as of September 30, 2024, for a total value of $34.5 million at an average price of $10.37 per share. Additionally, on October 28, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable November 22, 2024 to common stockholders of record at the close of business on November 8, 2024 reinforcing our commitment to returning capital each and every quarter.
This quarter, Ranger is also announcing an update to its governance structure. Charlie Leykum has announced his intention to step down from the Board of Directors effective November 1, 2024. As a Founder of Ranger, Charlie has been instrumental in supporting the organization since its inception and his contributions are deeply acknowledged and appreciated. With his retirement, Ranger will affect a change to reduce the size of its Board of Directors from 7 members to 6 members.
PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
For the third quarter of 2024, revenue was $153.0 million, an increase from the second quarter of $138.1 million and a decrease from $164.4 million in the prior year period. Quarter over quarter increases in revenue are attributable to improvements across segments in activity levels while year over year revenue declines are due to reduced activity in the wireline completions service line partially offset by increases in other business segments. Cost of services for the third quarter of 2024 was $122.0 million, or 80% of revenue, compared to $134.8 million, or 82% of revenue in the prior year period. The decrease in cost of services as a percentage of revenue from the prior year quarter was primarily attributable to reduced operating activity in wireline completions activity and restructuring activities. General and administrative expenses were $7.1 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $6.9 million in the prior quarter and $7.0 million in the prior year period.
Net income totaled $8.7 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $4.7 million in the prior quarter and $9.4 million in the prior year period. Fully diluted earnings per share was $0.39 for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $0.21 in the prior quarter and $0.38 in the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA of $25.1 million for the third quarter of 2024 increased $4.4 million from $21.0 million in the prior quarter and increased $1.1 million from $24.0 million in the prior year period. Quarter over quarter increases were driven by increasing activity levels in several service lines and margin improvements from operating leverage and restructuring efforts. The year over year increases were driven by increases to revenue and margins in High-Specification Rigs and Ancillary Services.
BUSINESS SEGMENT FINANCIAL RESULTS
High Specification Rigs
High Specification Rigs segment revenue was $86.7 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $4.0 million relative to the prior quarter revenue of $82.7 million and an increase of $7.5 million relative to the prior year period. Rig hours increased by 3% to 116,900 from 113,100 in the prior quarter and from 112,400 in the prior year period. Hourly rig rates increased by 1% to $741 from $732 per hour in the prior quarter, due to asset mix reflecting relatively consistent pricing levels quarter over quarter. Hourly rig rates increased by 6% from $700 in the prior year period.
Operating income was $13.8 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $2.0 million, or 17% compared to $11.8 million in the prior quarter, and an increase of $3.2 million, or 30% compared to $10.6 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $19.2 million in the third quarter, up from $18.7 million in the prior quarter and from $15.7 million in the prior year period.
Wireline Services
Wireline Services segment revenue was $30.3 million in the third quarter of 2024, up $5.8 million, or 24% compared to $24.5 million in the prior quarter and down $22.9 million, or 43% compared to $53.2 million in the prior year period. Our Completions service line reported completed stage counts of 2,500, a decrease of 47% compared to 1,700 for the prior quarter and 63% compared to 6,800 in the prior year period.
Revenue Breakdown by Service Line, in millions:
Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||
Service Line | 2022 YTD
| 2023 YTD
| 2024 YTD
|
Wireline Completions | $109.4 | $108.0 | $35.5 |
Wireline Production | 26.7 | 32.5 | 35.9 |
Wireline Pump Down | 12.6 | 17.1 | 16.2 |
Total Wireline Segment Revenue | $148.7 | $157.6 | $87.6 |
The decrease in revenue and stage count from the prior year periods is indicative of lower operational activity reflecting the Company's decision to pursue only work with appropriate margins and a shift in activity from completions work to production focused work.
Operating income was at a break-even in the third quarter, up $2.6 million from an operating loss of $2.6 million for the prior quarter and down $4.3 million, from operating income of $4.3 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $2.7 million, up from $0.4 million for the prior quarter and down 64% from $7.4 million in the prior year period.
Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services
Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services segment revenue was $36.0 million in the third quarter of 2024, up $5.1 million, or 17% from $30.9 million in the prior quarter and up $4.0 million, or 13% from $32.0 million for the prior year period. The increase from the prior quarter was largely attributable to increased operational activity in most service lines with the largest contribution coming from the Coil Tubing service line. The increase from the prior year period was largely attributable to increased operational activity in most service lines with the largest contribution coming from the P&A and Torrent service lines.
Operating income in this segment was $6.6 million in the third quarter, up from $5.2 million in the prior quarter and $4.5 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $8.8 million, an increase compared to $7.3 million in the prior quarter and $6.5 million in the prior year period.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $86.1 million of liquidity, consisting of $71.3 million of capacity on its revolving credit facility and $14.8 million of cash on hand. This compares to the prior year period end of September 30, 2023 when the Company had $69.9 million of liquidity, consisting of $61.7 million of capacity on its revolving credit facility and $8.2 million of cash on hand.
Cash provided by Operating Activities for year to date 2024 is $51.8 million, compared to $53.1 million over the same period in 2023. The Company's Free Cash Flow(2) of $23.1 million for year to date 2024 compares to Free Cash Flow(2) of $25.2 million in the prior year period primarily due to heavier capital expenditures during 2024 in support of expanding customer relationships.
The Company had capital expenditures of $28.7 million, compared to $27.9 million over the same period in 2023. Year to date, the Company has deployed approximately $10 million toward growth capital expenditures on more modern equipment that is more marketable at better pricing, updates to technology offerings or expanded service offerings. Many of these investments have been implemented in order to strengthen our customer relationships and provide for improved returns in future periods.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)
Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measure
The Company utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes to be insightful in understanding the Company's financial results. These financial measures, which include Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, should not be construed as being more important than, or as an alternative for, comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Detailed reconciliations of these Non-GAAP financial measures to comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures have been included below and are available in the Investor Relations sections of our website at www.rangerenergy.com. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow should not be construed as an indication that our results will be unaffected by the items excluded from the reconciliations. Our computations of these Non-GAAP financial measures may not be identical to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful performance measure because it allows for an effective evaluation of our operating performance when compared to our peers, without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed below from net income or loss in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially within our industry depending upon accounting methods, book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. 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 reflected in Adjusted EBITDA.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before net interest expense, income tax provision or benefit, depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, acquisition-related, severance and reorganization costs, gain or loss on disposal of property and equipment, and certain other non-cash items that we do not view as indicative of our ongoing performance.

Free Cash Flow
We believe Free Cash Flow is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company's financial performance, as it measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations. Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net income as a measure of our performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, our definition of Free Cash Flow is limited and does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, we believe it is important to view Free Cash Flow as supplemental to our entire statement of cash flows.
The following table is a reconciliation of consolidated operating cash flows to Free Cash Flow for the respective periods, in millions:
