Q1 FY26 earnings call · May 14, 2026
Q1 FY26
TL;DR. Nine Energy Service reported Q1 2026 revenue of $130 million and adjusted EBITDA of $3 million, distorted by emerging from Chapter 11 on March 5, 2026, a $5.5 million non-cash inventory write-down, and severe weather impacts on Wireline in the Northeast. The company guided Q2 2026 revenue to $136–$146 million and adjusted EBITDA to $10.0–$15.0 million.
Bullish
- + Guided Q2 2026 revenue of $136–$146 million and adjusted EBITDA of $10.0–$15.0 million, implying a meaningful step-up from Q1.
- + Total liquidity of $46.9 million as of March 31, 2026, including $11.2 million cash and $35.7 million of revolver availability.
- + Surpassed 500,000 Scorpion Composite Plugs sold, with updated Scorpion and dissolvable Stinger versions plus new tools expected.
- + Opened a new wireline facility in the Haynesville to capture gas-driven activity; Haynesville ended Q1 with 55 rigs, up ~25 rigs over four quarters.
- + Coiled tubing revenue rose ~4% on a 28% increase in days worked despite an 18% drop in day rate.
- + International tools business delivered ~14% sequential growth in 2025 and experienced minimal Q1 impact from the Iranian conflict.
Bearish
- − Reported adjusted EBITDA of just $3 million on $130 million of revenue, weighed down by a $5.5 million non-cash inventory write-down and weather-driven operational inefficiency.
- − Wireline revenue fell ~5% to $23.9 million on a ~4% decline in stages and ~1% lower blended revenue per stage, hit hardest by severe weather in the Northeast.
- − Completion tools revenue declined ~10% to $25.8 million on a ~10% drop in stages and took an additional hit from international disruptions.
- − Natural gas prices, which averaged ~$4.70 in Q1, have since declined and were trading below $3, potentially pressuring Haynesville-driven activity.
- − Net cash used in operating activities was $12.4 million in Q1 and DSO averaged 61 days.
- − Q1 was the first reporting period post-emergence from Chapter 11, creating unusually complex results and requiring fresh start accounting; the company cautioned that any remaining adjustments would be legitimate add-backs.
