FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NEWPARK RESOURCES REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER 2021 RESULTS

Revenues improve 18% sequentially; Fluids Systems returns to profitability

Company provides update on ongoing strategic portfolio review

THE WOODLANDS, TX – February 17, 2022 – Newpark Resources, Inc. (NYSE: NR) (“Newpark” or the “Company”) today announced results for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021. Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $179.6 million compared to $151.8 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $129.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $3.7 million, or ($0.04) per share, compared to net loss of $10.5 million, or ($0.11) per share, for the third quarter of 2021, and net loss of $18.4 million, or ($0.20) per share, for the fourth quarter of 2020.

Fourth quarter 2021 operating results include $0.02 per share in after-tax charges including the impact of $0.9 million of pre-tax restructuring related charges in the Fluids Systems segment and $0.9 million of incremental pre-tax expenses in the Industrial Solutions segment related to a multi-year sales tax audit and insurance reserves.

Paul Howes, Newpark’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our fourth quarter results reflect the benefit of our continued expansion in the power transmission market, as well as the improving market dynamics in the global oil and gas sector. Consolidated revenues increased 18% sequentially to $180 million in the fourth quarter, benefiting from strong growth in both the Industrial Solutions and Fluids Systems segments.

“The Industrial Solutions segment generated $52 million of revenues in the fourth quarter, reflecting an 18% sequential improvement, benefiting from the anticipated year-end strength for Site and Access Solutions product sales into the utilities sector. The Industrial Solutions segment operating margin declined modestly to 16% in the fourth quarter, impacted by the anticipated headwind from elevated raw materials costs and the lack of industrial blending production volume, as well as the elevated expenses associated with the sales tax audit and insurance reserves.”

Howes continued, “The Fluids Systems segment revenues also improved 18% sequentially, driven by broad-based growth across most of our key markets. In North America, revenues improved by 17% sequentially to $83 million, including 21% sequential growth from both U.S. land and Canada. These improvements were partially offset by a $2 million decline in the Gulf of Mexico, driven by further project delays with a primary customer experiencing drillship mechanical issues. International revenues improved 21% sequentially to $45 million in the fourth quarter, driven primarily by increased activities in North Africa. As a result of the revenue improvement and ongoing cost reduction efforts, the Fluids Systems segment returned to positive operating income, despite incurring the restructuring charges. Corporate office expenses were also elevated in the fourth quarter, primarily reflecting higher long-term incentive expense driven by the Company’s share price performance relative to our peer group, as well as increased legal and professional expenses, primarily attributable to M&A activity and the restructuring of certain subsidiary legal entities within Europe.

“Regarding cash flows, operating activities used cash of $17 million in the fourth quarter, including a $35 million increase in receivables driven by the higher revenue level. Receivable DSO’s remained elevated in the fourth quarter, due in part to the timing of large projects and product sales within the quarter, though we expect DSO’s will normalize in the first quarter and provide a favorable tailwind for cash generation,” added Howes. “Net cash used in investing activities were $10 million in the fourth quarter, including $13 million to fund a strategic acquisition in the Industrial Solutions segment which expands our geographic reach in the Northeast and strengthens our utility industry customer base.”

Strategic Review Update

As part of the ongoing business and portfolio review, the Company announced that the Board of Directors recently approved two near-term actions intended to enhance liquidity available for investment in higher returning businesses, as the Company remains focused on taking the necessary steps to improve returns on invested capital and enhance long-term value for shareholders. These actions include winding down our industrial blending operations in the next few months and pursuing the sale of the industrial blending and warehouse facility and related equipment located in Conroe, Texas. Industrial blending contributed $9 million of revenues in 2021 while incurring a $2 million operating loss and ended the year with roughly $20 million of net capital employed. As a result of the plan to exit and dispose of the assets used in the Industrial Blending business, we may incur pre-tax charges in the range of approximately $4 million to $8 million primarily related to the non-cash impairment of long-lived assets, which we expect to recognize in the first quarter of 2022.

Second, the Company will explore strategic options for the U.S. mineral grinding business, which supplies ground barite and other minerals to the U.S. Fluids Systems business, as well as to third parties in the oil and gas and industrial markets. The mineral grinding business contributed total third-party revenues of $36 million in 2021 yielding approximately break-even operating income and ended the year with $47 million of net capital employed, including roughly $25 million of net working capital.

Segment Results

The Fluids Systems segment generated revenues of $127.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to $108.0 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $79.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Segment operating income was $0.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to an operating loss of $6.6 million for the third quarter of 2021 and an operating loss of $20.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2021 includes $0.9 million of charges primarily related to facility exit and severance costs. Operating loss for the third quarter of 2021 includes $4.0 million of charges primarily related to self-insured costs associated with Hurricane Ida damage to our Fourchon, Louisiana Fluids Systems operating base, facility exit, and severance costs. Operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2020 includes $11.2 million of net charges, primarily related to our exit from Brazil including $11.7 million of charges for the non-cash recognition of cumulative foreign currency translation losses.

The Industrial Solutions segment generated revenues of $51.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to $43.8 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $50.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Segment operating income was $8.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to operating income of $8.1 million for the third quarter of 2021 and operating income of $9.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2021 includes $0.9 million of incremental pre-tax expenses related to a multi-year sales tax audit and insurance reserves.
