    • Adjusted EBITDA for the full year ended 2020 was $7.3 million compared to $17.4 million for the full year ended 2019.
    • For the full year ended 2020, the Company generated net cash provided by operating activities of $13.2 million.
    • Total liquidity available as of December 31, 2020 was $17.9 million including $5.0 million available under the Company’s undrawn operating line of credit.
    • The Company refinanced its debt, repaying outstanding loan obligations of $20.9 million with proceeds from new debt of $23.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2020. In addition under the operating line of credit there was availability of $5.0 million.
    • The Southern division was shutdown for several days during the first quarter of 2021 due to unprecedented winter weather.

    “Based on all measures 2020 was an extremely challenging year and business activity for the last three quarters of the year was depressed, with our oil-focused Bakken region hurt the most. We saw pressure on both pricing and volumes to varying degrees across all our businesses in all three regions. We managed to reduce costs across the board and generated cash as the balance sheet decreased as a function of lower sales. In addition we refinanced all of our term debt and ended the year in a healthy liquidity position. While commodity prices have recovered over recent months, our customers have been maintaining strict capital spending discipline and, as a result, we thus far have seen limited improvement in activity or pricing. We are reviewing our strategic and geographic positioning and are committed to making any adjustments to continue serving the customers that are important to our franchise,” said Charlie Thompson, Chief Executive Officer.

    FOURTH QUARTER 2020 RESULTS

    For the fourth quarter of 2020 when compared to the same quarter in 2019, revenue decreased by 35.4%, or $13.2 million, resulting primarily from lower water transport services in the Rocky Mountain and Northeast divisions and lower disposal services in all three divisions, partially offset by an increase in water transport services in the Southern division. The economic impact of COVID-19 was the main driver for the decline in demand for gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, which led to lower drilling and completion activity with fewer rigs operating in all three divisions. Commodity prices for crude oil decreased 25% over this time while rig count during the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 declined 79% in the Rocky Mountain division, 38% in the Northeast division and 29% in the Southern division.

    The Rocky Mountain division experienced a significant slowdown, with producers reducing rigs due to the decline in WTI crude oil price per barrel, which averaged $42.52 in the fourth quarter of 2020 versus an average of $56.84 for the same period in 2019, resulting in a rig count decline of 79% from 53 during the fourth quarter of 2019 to 11 during the same period in 2020. Revenues for the Rocky Mountain division decreased by $9.3 million, or 43%, during the fourth quarter of 2020 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 primarily due to a $3.8 million, or 30%, decrease in water transport revenues from lower trucking volumes. Revenue from company-owned trucking revenue declined $3.9 million or 37%, while third-party trucking revenue increased 12%, or $0.2 million. Average total billable hours were down 27% compared to the prior year. While company-owned trucking activity is more levered to production water volumes, third-party trucking activity is more sensitive to drilling and completion activity, which has declined to historically low levels, thereby resulting in meaningful revenue reduction coupled with an increase in competition for this service resulting in unfavorable pressure on trucking rates. Though third-party trucking saw a slight increase during the quarter on account of some plug and abandonment projects and well completion work, which boosted production water hauling and winch trucks demand above our driver count capabilities at the time. Our rental and landfill businesses are our two service lines most levered to drilling activity, and therefore have declined by the highest percentage versus the prior period. Rental revenues decreased in the current year due to lower utilization resulting from a significant decline in drilling activity driving the return of previously rented equipment. Our landfill revenues decreased 89%, or $0.9 million, compared to prior year due primarily to a 92% decrease in disposal volumes at our landfill as rigs working in the vicinity declined materially. Our salt water disposal well revenue decreased $1.7 million, or 56%, compared to prior year as rig count reductions and lower completion activity led to a 46% decrease in average barrels per day disposed during the current year.

    Revenues for the Northeast division decreased by $3.2 million, or 29%, during the fourth quarter of 2020 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 due to decreases in water transport and disposal services. This decrease was partially due to prices of natural gas which remained at historically low levels, averaging $2.52 and $2.38 respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2020 and the same period in 2019, contributing to a 38% rig count reduction in the Northeast operating area from 52 during the fourth quarter of 2019 to 32 during the fourth quarter of 2020. In addition, as a result of the low oil prices experienced earlier in the year, many of our customers who had historically focused on production of liquids-rich areas of the basin reduced new drilling activity and temporarily shut in some production in our operating area. In addition to reduced drilling and completion activity due to commodity prices, our customers continued the industry trend of water reuse during completion activities. Water reuse inherently reduces trucking activity due to shorter hauling distances as water is being transported between well sites rather than to disposal wells. For our trucking services, revenue per billed hour was down 5% from the prior year which was partially offset by a 5% improvement in driver utilization. Disposal volumes decreased in our salt water disposal wells resulting in a 34% decrease in average barrels per day, coupled with lower revenue per barrel.

    The Southern division experienced the lowest revenue decline relative to the other business units, driven by its focus on servicing customers who are themselves focused on dry natural gas, which has experienced a relatively smaller impact from the 2020 downturn in commodity prices. Revenues for the Southern division decreased by $0.7 million, or 16%, during the fourth quarter of 2020 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. The decrease was due primarily to lower disposal well volumes, whether connected to the pipeline or not, resulting from an activity slowdown in the region, as evidenced by fewer rigs operating in the area as well as lower revenue per barrel. Rig count declined 29% in the area, from 55 during the fourth quarter of 2019 to 39 during the fourth quarter of 2020. Volumes received in our disposal wells not connected to our pipeline decreased by an average of 7,743 barrels per day, or 29% during the current year and volumes received in the disposal wells connected to the pipeline decreased by an average of 8,305 barrels per day, or 20% during the current year. Offsetting the declines in disposal well revenues was a 9% increase in water transport services. Subsequent to the year end, the Southern division experienced unprecedented winter weather in February that shutdown the business for several days. We are expecting this to have a significant impact on the first quarter of 2021 revenue.

    Total costs and expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 2019 were $30.4 million and $73.9 million, respectively. Total costs and expenses, adjusted for special items, for the fourth quarter of 2020 were $30.4 million, or a 29% decrease, when compared with $43.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. This is primarily a result of lower volumes and related costs in water transport services and disposal services coupled with company initiatives to match trucking capacity to demand, resulting in a 27% and 34% decrease in the number of drivers compared to the prior year period in the Rocky Mountain and Northeast divisions respectively, as well as declines in third-party hauling costs and fleet-related expenses, including maintenance and repair costs and fuel, and general and administrative expenses.

    Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $7.2 million, an increase of $30.3 million as compared to a net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 of $37.5 million. For the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company reported a net loss, adjusted for special items, of $6.0 million. This compares with a net loss, adjusted for special items, of $7.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2019.

    Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $1.4 million, a decrease of 55% as compared to adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2019 of $3.1 million. The decrease is a function of the reasons discussed previously, with primary drivers being lower trucking volumes, salt water disposal volumes and rental equipment utilization in the Rocky Mountain and Northeast divisions. Fourth quarter of 2020 adjusted EBITDA margin was 5.8%, compared with 8.2% in the fourth quarter of 2019 driven primarily by declines in revenue, partially offset by cost reductions in 2020.

    YEAR-TO-DATE (“YTD”) RESULTS FOR THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020

    When compared to 2019, 2020 revenue decreased by 34%, or $58.0 million, due primarily to decreases in the available market for water transport services, disposal services and third-party rentals in all three divisions. The major underlying driver for this decrease was lower commodity prices for both crude oil and natural gas, which decreased 31% and 21%, respectively, over this time period. The economic impact of COVID-19 is the main driver for the decline in demand for gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, which led to lower drilling and completion activity with fewer rigs operating in all three divisions and significant well shut-ins primarily in the Rocky Mountain division. Rig count during the year 2020 compared to 2019 declined 56% in the Rocky Mountain division, 27% in the Northeast division and 18% in the Southern division.

    Of our three divisions, the Rocky Mountain division experienced the most significant slowdown, with rig count declining 56% from 52 during the year ended December 31, 2019 to 23 during the year ended December 31, 2020. In addition, beginning in April 2020, some producers shut in many wells due to the decline in WTI crude oil price per barrel, which averaged $39.16 in 2020 versus an average of $56.98 for the same period in 2019, resulting in their cash costs of operations exceeding revenues per barrel. Revenues for the Rocky Mountain division decreased by $44.2 million, or 43%, during 2020 as compared to 2019 primarily due to a $24.3 million, or 37.8%, decrease in water transport revenues from lower trucking volumes. Company-owned trucking revenue declined $10.7 million or 25%, and third-party trucking revenue decreased $12.0 million, or 60%. Average total billable hours were down 19% compared to the prior year. While company-owned trucking activity is more levered to production water volumes, third-party trucking activity is more sensitive to drilling and completion activity, which declined to historically low levels, thereby resulting in meaningful third-party revenue reduction. Our rental and landfill businesses are our two service lines most levered to drilling activity, and therefore have declined by the highest percentage versus the prior period. Rental revenues decreased in the current year due to lower utilization resulting from a significant decline in drilling activity driving the return of previously rented rental equipment. Our landfill revenues decreased 62%, or $3.2 million, compared to prior year due primarily to a 61% decrease in disposal volumes at our landfill as rigs working in the vicinity declined materially. Our salt water disposal well revenue decreased $6.4 million, or 50%, compared to prior year as well shut-ins and lower completion activity led to a 37% decrease in average barrels per day disposed during the current year, with water from producing wells continuing to maintain a base level of volume activity.

    Revenues for the Northeast division decreased by $9.8 million, or 22%, during 2020 as compared to 2019 due to decreases in water transport services of $5.6 million, or 19%, and disposal services of $3.9 million, or 32%. Natural gas prices per million Btu, as measured by the Henry Hub Natural Gas Index, decreased 21% from an average of $2.56 for 2019 to an average of $2.03 for 2020, contributing to a 27% rig count reduction in the Northeast operating area from 52 during the year ended December 31, 2019 to 38 during the year ended December 31, 2020. Additionally, as a result of the 31% decline in WTI crude oil prices experienced during the period, many of our customers who had historically focused on production of liquids-rich gas wells also reduced activity levels and shut-in some production in our operating area due to lower realized prices for these products. This led to lower activity levels for both water transport services and disposal services despite the relatively lower decrease in natural gas prices versus crude oil prices. In addition to reduced drilling and completion activity due to commodity prices, our customers continued the industry trend of water reuse during completion activities. Water reuse inherently reduces trucking activity due to shorter hauling distances as water is being transported between well sites rather than to disposal wells. For our trucking services, revenue per billed hour was down 7% from the prior year, which was partially offset by a 6% improvement in driver utilization. Disposal volumes decreased in our salt water disposal wells resulting in a 5% decrease in average barrels per day.

    Revenues for the Southern division decreased by $4.0 million, or 19%, during 2020 as compared to 2019. The decrease was due primarily to lower disposal well volumes, whether connected to the pipeline or not, resulting from a drilling and completion activity slowdown in the region, as evidenced by fewer rigs operating in the area, as well as lower revenue per barrel. Rig count declined 18% in the area, from 49 during the year ended December 31, 2019 to 40 during the year ended December 31, 2020. Volumes received in our disposal wells not connected to our pipeline decreased by an average of 8,644 barrels per day, or 30%, during the current year and volumes received in the disposal wells connected to the pipeline decreased by an average of 7,557 barrels per day, or 17% during the current year.

    Total costs and expenses for 2020 and 2019 were $150.5 million and $218.3 million, respectively. Total costs and expenses, adjusted for special items, for 2020 were $131.7 million, or a 30% decrease, when compared with $187.5 million for 2019. This is primarily a result of lower volumes and related costs in water transport services and disposal services and company initiatives to match trucking capacity to demand, resulting in a 19% and 20% decrease in the number of drivers compared to the prior year period in the Rocky Mountain and Northeast divisions respectively, as well as a decline in third-party hauling costs and fleet-related expenses, including maintenance and repair costs and fuel, and general and administrative expenses.

    Net loss for 2020 was $44.1 million, an increase of $10.8 million as compared to a net loss for 2019 of $54.9 million. For 2020, the Company reported a net loss, adjusted for special items, of $25.4 million. This compares with a net loss, adjusted for special items, of $23.9 million for YTD 2019.

    Adjusted EBITDA for 2020 was $7.3 million, a decrease of 58% as compared to adjusted EBITDA for 2019 of $17.4 million. The decrease is a function of the reasons discussed previously, with primary drivers being lower trucking volumes, salt water disposal volumes and rental equipment utilization in the Rocky Mountain and Northeast divisions. During 2020, adjusted EBITDA margin was 7%, compared with 10% in 2019 driven primarily by declines in revenue partially offset by cost reductions in 2020.

    CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY

    Net cash provided by operating activities for 2020 was $13.2 million, mainly attributable to a decline in sales, which contributed to a decrease of $11.2 million in accounts receivable, while capital expenditures net of asset sales consumed cash of $0.2 million. Asset sales were related to unused or under-utilized assets. Gross capital expenditures for 2020 of $3.4 million primarily included the purchase of property, plant and equipment as well as expenditures to extend the useful life and productivity of our fleet, equipment and disposal wells.

    Total liquidity available as of December 31, 2020 was $17.9 million. This consisted of $12.9 million of cash and $5.0 million available under our operating line of credit. As of December 31, 2020, total debt outstanding was $35.0 million, consisting of $13.0 million under our equipment term loan, $9.9 million under our real estate loan, $4.0 million under our Paycheck protection Program loan, $0.4 million under our vehicle term loan, $0.2 million under our equipment finance loan, and $7.6 million of finance leases for vehicle financings and real property leases.

    On November 24, 2020, the Company closed on a multi-faceted debt refinancing with First International Bank and Trust based in Watford City, North Dakota. The Company executed a $13.0 million equipment term loan financed under the Main Street Priority Lending program, a $10.0 million real estate loan, a $5.0 million operating line of credit and a $4.839 million letter of credit facility. Proceeds from the real estate loan and the equipment term loan financing repaid all outstanding obligations owed under our First Lien Credit Agreement (which included the outstanding letters of credit) and all outstanding obligations under our Second Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement.

    NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

    This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of operations or balance sheets of the Company; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the attached financial tables.

    These non-GAAP financial measures are provided because management of the Company uses these financial measures in evaluating the Company’s ongoing financial results and trends. Management uses this non-GAAP information as an indicator of business results, and evaluates overall performance with respect to such indicators. Management believes that excluding items such as acquisition expenses, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, asset impairments, restructuring charges, expenses related to litigation and resolution of lawsuits, and other charges, which may or may not be non-recurring, among other items that are inconsistent in amount and frequency (as with acquisition expenses), or determined pursuant to complex formulas that incorporate factors, such as market volatility, that are beyond our control (as with stock-based compensation), for purposes of calculating these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates a more meaningful evaluation of the Company’s current operating performance and comparisons to the past and future operating performance. The Company believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted net income (loss) per share, in addition to related GAAP financial measures, provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by the Company’s management. These non-GAAP financial measures are not substitutes for measures of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP and may not necessarily be indicative of the Company’s liquidity or ability to fund cash needs. Not all companies calculate non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner, and our presentation may not be comparable to the presentations of other companies.
