Adam Anderson, CEO, commented, “We delivered a strong third quarter as the investments we have made in our technology portfolio and global operating platform continue to drive profitable growth. Our U.S. Land business benefited from increased activity and modest share gains—with particular success in our cementing tool business. Our subsea backlog continued to grow in the quarter, which should translate into meaningful growth in 2027 and beyond. Despite regional disruptions related to the ongoing conflict in Iran, our Middle East business delivered a solid quarter, and we accelerated investment in new product qualifications which will support future growth. We re-entered Venezuela during the quarter as activity began to recover, and we see a significant opportunity to leverage the strength of our broad portfolio. Importantly, our capital-light business model allows us to participate in this growth without making significant fixed investments in the country. Overall, we remain encouraged by the momentum across our business and believe Innovex is well positioned to continue gaining market share while creating long-term value through innovation, operational execution, and disciplined growth.”

Kendal Reed, CFO, commented, “Our third quarter results demonstrate the strength of Innovex’s capital-light business model and disciplined approach to capital allocation. We generated $39 million of net cash provided by operating activities, $32 million of Free Cash Flow and ended the quarter with $189 million of cash and cash equivalents and no bank debt, providing significant financial flexibility to pursue both organic and inorganic growth opportunities. Supported by a strong balance sheet, healthy liquidity position, and active pipeline of opportunities, we remain well positioned to drive long-term shareholder value.”

Financial Summary

Operational & Financial Results

Kendal Reed, CFO, continued, “Operational execution remained strong throughout the third quarter even as we supported growing activity across key international markets. During the quarter, our teams efficiently executed several critical programs while maintaining high standards of safety and customer responsiveness. While project timing and geopolitical uncertainty may continue to create quarter-to-quarter variability, we remain encouraged by the breadth of opportunities developing across our portfolio and believe the underlying trajectory of the business remains positive.”

Adam Anderson, CEO, concluded, “We are encouraged by the momentum across our platform. In U.S. Land, we won meaningful awards with two large operators that expanded our leading market share position in cementing tools in the Lower 48. In US Offshore, we successfully began the installation of our industry leading 20K wellhead system, demonstrating our technology leadership as well as our exceptional execution capabilities in frontier deepwater technologies. In addition, we secured two follow-on subsea awards in Malaysia, a long-term subsea wellhead contract in Indonesia, and a significant fishing contract in the North Sea that displaces the incumbent supplier. In the Middle East, we advanced qualification efforts for key technologies and secured our first direct corporate purchase agreement with a major national oil company. Over the coming quarters we expect direct awards to increase— bypassing local agents, expanding our margins, and bringing us even closer to our customers. These successes demonstrate that Innovex is entering a new phase—one where our global platform increasingly enables technology deployments across geographies, applications, and customers. We remain focused on converting those advantages into sustainable, profitable growth while maintaining our discipline around execution and capital allocation.”

Balance Sheet, Debt, Cash Flow & Other

Net cash provided by operating activities was $39 million, while capital expenditures totaled $6 million (approximately 2.4% of revenue) for the third quarter of 2026.

Innovex generated Free Cash Flow of $32 million during the third quarter of 2026 and ended the quarter with approximately $189 million of cash and cash equivalents and no bank debt.

Innovex maintains a strong liquidity position and disciplined balance sheet to preserve flexibility and support high-return capital allocation opportunities. We continue to focus on M&A opportunities with strong quantitative and qualitative characteristics.

Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”)

Innovex’s efficient capital allocation and capital-light business model enable the Company to generate strong returns on its invested capital. Income from operations for the twelve months ended September 30, 2026 was $70 million. Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) for the twelve months ended September 30, 2026 was 10%. We remain focused on capital efficiency, which we believe is a key driver of sustainable value creation for our stockholders.

Q4 2026 Guidance

Looking to the fourth quarter of 2026, Innovex expects to generate $260 – $270 million in total revenue and Adjusted EBITDA of $53 – $58 million.

The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting the timing and magnitude of items that have not yet occurred.

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) as net income (loss) before interest (income) expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), net, depreciation and amortization, (gain) loss on sale of assets and other expense, net, further adjusted to exclude certain items which we believe are not reflective of our ongoing performance or which are non-cash in nature. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the profitability of our business operations and to compare our operating performance to our competitors without regard to the impact of financing methods and capital structure and excluding costs that management believes do not reflect our ongoing operating performance and for this reason we believe this measure will provide useful information to investors. We track Adjusted EBITDA on an absolute dollar basis and as a percentage of revenue, which we refer to as Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

Free Cash Flow

We also utilize Free Cash Flow (a non-GAAP measure) to evaluate the cash generated by our operations and results of operations. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, as presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Management believes Free Cash Flow is useful because it demonstrates the cash that was available in the period that was in excess of our needs to fund our capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow does not represent our residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures, as we have non-discretionary expenditures, including, but not limited to, any principal payments required under the terms of our credit facility, which are not deducted in calculating Free Cash Flow.

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)

We utilize Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) (a non-GAAP measure) to assess the effectiveness of our capital allocation over time and to compare our capital efficiency to our competitors, and for this reason we believe this measure will provide useful information to investors. We define ROCE as income from operations excluding acquisition and integration costs, litigation related expenses not reflective of our ongoing operating performance, and income tax expense (resulting in Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax) divided by average capital employed. Capital employed is defined as the combined values of debt and stockholders’ equity.  In the first quarter of 2026, we revised our definition of ROCE and Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax to exclude litigation related expenses not reflective of our ongoing operating performance, which for the twelve months ended September 30, 2026 is reflective of the costs related to the Impulse Litigation. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the aforementioned litigation related expenses eliminated in calculating Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax and ROCE provides useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. We did not revise prior years’ Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax or ROCE because there were no other charges similar in nature to these costs.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and ROCE do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income and net cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our financial performance. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and ROCE may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see tables below.

Management has provided outlook regarding Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure and excludes certain charges. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the corresponding GAAP financial measure has not been provided because guidance for the various reconciling items is not provided. The Company is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because they cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of the Company’s control and cannot be reasonably predicted since these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.
