Financial Summary

Scott Bender, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Cactus, commented, "Our second quarter performance highlights the benefits of portfolio diversification achieved through the FlexSteel acquisition, as cash flows and revenues remained resilient despite falling U.S. land activity levels. Spoolable Technologies revenues increased and margins exceeded expectations on improved manufacturing efficiency in the quarter. Pressure Control revenues declined more than expected, largely driven by lower frac equipment rental, while our product sales outperformed the quarter-over-quarter decline in the average U.S. land rig count reflecting our market share strength. Pressure Control margins were unfavorably impacted by tariffs as we exited the second quarter, particularly given the unexpected doubling of the Section 232 tariff announced and implemented in the quarter."

"In the third quarter of 2025, we anticipate that the U.S. land rig count will continue to decline, although we believe that the majority of the reductions for 2025 are behind us provided commodity prices remain relatively stable near today's levels. We expect revenues to be down modestly in both segments, following the lower average domestic activity levels."

Mr. Bender concluded, "The second quarter was transformational for Cactus as we announced the agreement to acquire a 65% majority interest in Baker Hughes' Surface Pressure Control business. Our integration planning work is progressing smoothly, and I am particularly pleased with the customer response to our Joint Venture announcement. Adjusting to lower North American activity levels and tariff uncertainties that have negatively impacted margins, we have recently taken action to right-size our organization to align with expectations for the second half of the year. The current softness in the North American market and the ongoing tariff uncertainty emphasized the strategic rationale for our planned acquisition of the Surface Pressure Control business of Baker Hughes, which will provide Cactus with a broader geographic footprint and further revenue diversification."

Segment Performance

We report two business segments, Pressure Control and Spoolable Technologies. Corporate and other expenses not directly attributable to either segment are presented separately as Corporate and Other expenses.

Pressure Control

Second quarter 2025 Pressure Control revenue decreased $10.5 million, or 5.5%, sequentially, primarily due to lower rental revenues and lower sales of wellhead and production related equipment resulting from reduced activity levels in the quarter. Operating income decreased $12.0 million, or 22.1%, sequentially, with margins declining 510 basis points due to tariff impacts to product margins and increased legal expenses and reserves recognized in connection with litigation claims. Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased $11.7 million, or 18.0%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins decreasing 450 basis points.

Spoolable Technologies

Second quarter 2025 Spoolable Technologies revenues increased $3.6 million, or 3.9%, sequentially, due to higher customer activity levels in the seasonally stronger second quarter. Operating income improved $4.2 million, or 17.5%, sequentially, on higher volume, while margins increased 340 basis points on higher operating leverage. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was higher by $4.4 million, or 13.2%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins improving 320 basis points.

Corporate and Other Expenses

Second quarter 2025 Corporate and Other expenses were flat sequentially. Second quarter Corporate and Other expenses contained $3.5 million of transaction-related expenses related to the announced plan to acquire a majority interest in Baker Hughes' Surface Pressure Control business, flat from the first quarter.

Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $405.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, no bank debt outstanding, and $222.6 million of availability on our revolving credit facility. Operating cash flow was $82.8 million for the second quarter of 2025. During the second quarter, the Company made dividend payments and associated distributions of $10.4 million.

Net capital expenditures were $11.1 million during the second quarter of 2025. For the full year 2025, the Company now expects net capital expenditures to be in the range of $40 to $45 million, inclusive of capital directed towards supply chain diversification efforts and efficiency improvements in the Baytown manufacturing facility. We are continuing to evaluate our capital spending program for the year given lower market activity levels.
