NOW Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2021 Results

NOW Inc. (NYSE: DNOW) announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

  • Revenue was $439 million for the third quarter of 2021
  • Net income was $5 million and non-GAAP net income excluding other costs was $6 million for the third quarter of 2021
  • Diluted earnings per share was $0.05 and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excluding other costs was $0.05 for the third quarter of 2021
  • Non-GAAP EBITDA excluding other costs for the third quarter of 2021 was $15 million
  • Cash and cash equivalents was $312 million and long-term debt was zero at September 30, 2021
  • Free cash flow for the third quarter of 2021 was $22 million

David Cherechinsky, President and CEO of NOW Inc., added, “I am delighted to report this quarter that the Company once again achieved solid results with better-than-expected sequential revenue growth of 10 percent, a third consecutive quarter of record-breaking gross margins and EBITDA excluding other costs of $15 million, well above expectations. Our strategic execution accelerated these results and generated $22 million in free cash flow in a period where we would have historically consumed cash.

Despite facing the pervasive effects of the continued worldwide pandemic, particularly global supply chain disruptions, product scarcity, industry labor shortages and elevated transportation costs, our global DNOW team delivered as a reliable source of critical products and services for our customers amid growing demand.

Looking ahead to full-year 2021 results, we expect revenue to be largely unchanged from full-year 2020. However, with stronger gross margins and a now much leaner cost structure, we anticipate full-year 2021 EBITDA improvement over full-year 2020 to be near $90 million, representing a fundamental shift in the capabilities of the Company and its earnings potential, laying the groundwork for a strong 2022.”

Prior to the earnings conference call a presentation titled “NOW Inc. Third Quarter 2021 Key Takeaways” will be available on the Company’s Investor Relations website.

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we disclose various non-GAAP financial measures in our quarterly earnings press releases and other public disclosures. The non-GAAP financial measures include: (i) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding other costs, (ii) net income (loss) excluding other costs and (iii) diluted earnings (loss) per share excluding other costs. Each of these financial measures excludes the impact of certain other costs and therefore has not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure is included in the schedules herein.

(2)

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, other costs primarily included impairment charges and transaction-related expenses, which were included in operating profit, and the increase in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, which was included in other expense.

(3)

EBITDA % excluding other costs is defined as EBITDA excluding other costs divided by Revenue.

(4)

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, other costs, net of tax, primarily included expenses of $1 million from changes in the valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets and $7 million related to impairment charges and transaction-related expenses. The Company has excluded the impact of these items on its valuation allowance in computing net income (loss) excluding other costs.

(5)

Totals may not foot due to rounding.
