MCCOY GLOBAL ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2023 RESULTS AND DECLARATION OF QUARTERLY DIVIDEND

McCoy Global Inc. has released its operational and financial results for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023. The corporation also announced its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per common share payable on January 15, 2024, to shareholders of record as of close of business on December 31, 2023. The dividend per common share is a regular dividend and is an "eligible" dividend for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any similar provincial/territorial legislation.

Third Quarter Highlights :

• Revenue increased 36% to $16.9 million, compared to $12.4 million in 2022;
• Net earnings increased 593% to $1.9 million compared to the third quarter of 2022 of $0.3 million;
• Adjusted EBITDA1 increased 251% to $3.9 million, or 23% of revenue, compared to $1.1 million, or 9% of revenue, in 2022;
• Maintained a strong statement of financial position, ending the quarter with $14.0 million of net cash5 as at Sept. 30, 2023, after returning over $2.7 million to shareholders in the quarter through the completion of the normal course issuer bid (NCIB) announced in August and dividends;
• Advanced its Digital Technology Roadmap:
  • Reported eleven (11) commercial sales and two (2) tool rentals for McCoy's Flush Mount Spider (FMS) since January 1, 2023. An additional twenty-six (26) tools are scheduled for delivery in the fourth quarter of 2023 and early 2024. With a growing number of tools delivered in the third quarter and coming months, we expect the increased exposure with operators will showcase the benefits of McCoy's FMS, and in turn, further accelerate adoption in the coming quarters. McCoy's FMS is a hydraulic rotary flush mounted spider that when fully connected (smartFMS), handles casing while providing information on the state of the tool to the driller's display in real-time as well as the ability to integrate with McCoy Smart Casing Running Tool (smartCRT).
  • Reported two (2) commercial sales for McCoy's smartCRT since January 1, 2023, and delivered two (2) rental tools in Latin America to a large multinational customer committed to utilizing our technology. In addition, purchase order commitments were received from a new market entrant in Latin America as well as a purchase commitment for a further two (2) rental tools from our large multinational customer. McCoy's smartCRT is an intelligent, connected enhancement of our conventional casing running tool that offers superior safety, efficiency, and simplified operating procedure, with real-time data collection and post-job analysis capabilities. This technology effectively mitigates the risk of human error, while providing actionable insights that optimize future performance.
  • Completed the development and test-rig trials of the smarTR and have since begun in-field trials with our partnering customer in North America. McCoy's smarTR is a fully automated casing running system.
• Declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per common share payable on January 15, 2024, to shareholders of record as of close of business on December 31, 2023.

"McCoy's strong third quarter performance was the result of our concerted effort to deliver on our technology strategy globally, particularly through the continued market adoption of McCoy's DWCRT, FMS, and smartCRT by both leading regional participants and large multinational customers." said Jim Rakievich, President & CEO of McCoy. "With more and more of both our FMS and smartCRT tools successfully operating in the field, we expect that the increased exposure with operators and National Oil Companies (NOC's) will showcase the benefits of McCoy's smart technologies, and in turn, further accelerate adoption in the coming quarters. With the successful completion of development and test-rig trials for McCoy's smarTR, we have since begun in-field trials with our partnering customer in North America. We expect further advancements toward commercialization in the coming quarters and look forward to reporting our progress."

"Strong EBITDA performance was driven by market share increase of McCoy's DWCRT, as well as further deliveries of McCoy's new technologies including the FMS and smartCRT, and resulted in $4.1 million of cash generated from operating activities during the quarter. Much of these funds were used to return capital to shareholders with $2.5 million of cash used to repurchase shares under the corporation's now completed NCIB, and $0.3 million paid under the corporation's reinstated quarterly dividend." said Lindsay McGill, Vice President & CFO of McCoy. "As of Sept. 30, 2023, McCoy reported net cash of $14.0 million and with $11.9 million of additional funds available under undrawn credit facilities. McCoy is well positioned for revenue and earnings growth for the remainder of the year and beyond."

Financial Summary

Revenue for the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, increased by 36% and 46%, respectively, from the comparative period and was driven by continued market share increase of McCoy's DWCRT, as well as further deliveries of McCoy's new technologies including the FMS and smartCRT.

Gross profit percentage for the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, increased to 37% and 33%, respectively, from the comparative periods. This was largely driven by a favourable shift in product mix towards new technologies such as DWCRTs, smartCRTs, and FMS, which command higher margins compared to legacy capital equipment. Increased production throughput and material cost savings from effective supply chain management also favorably impacted results.

For the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, G&A increased by 29% and 33%, respectively, from the comparative periods due to headcount increases to support the increase in activity, as well as increased stock-based compensation from appreciation of the corporation's stock price. As a percentage of revenue, G&A fell one and two percentage points respectively, with the comparative periods.

Sales & Marketing expenses increased from the comparative periods by 31% due to increased commissions, travel, and headcount to support increased market activity. As a percentage of revenue, Sales & Marketing decreased one percentage point with the comparative periods.

During the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, the corporation further advanced its 'Digital Technology Roadmap' initiative by concentrating product development and support efforts on accelerating market adoption of new and recently commercialized 'smart' portfolio products, including the smartCRT, and FMS. Field trials for the automated smarTR system commenced in Q3 and will continue throughout Q4. The corporation has substantially concluded capital expenditures for the first suite of smart products under its 'Digital Technology Roadmap' initiative. For the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, product development and support expenses increased from the comparative periods by 27% and 34%, respectively due to a decrease in capitalized internal product design and development hours, as well as increased headcount and travel to support customer adoption of new technologies.

Finance (income) charges, net, includes borrowing costs, finance charges imputed on leases in accordance with IFRS 16, offset by interest income on cash and cash equivalents. For the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023, finance (income), net was reported due to full repayment of the corporation's term loan in the first quarter of 2023, as well as interest earned on cash and cash equivalents, net of finance charges imputed under IFRS 16. For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, finance charges, net was also impacted by prepayment penalties and recognition of the remaining amortized finance charges associated with early repayment of the corporation's term loan.

For the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, other losses, net consisted of foreign exchange losses offset by gains on disposal of property, plant, and equipment. For the three months ended Sept. 30, 2022, other gains, net is comprised of foreign exchange gains and government assistance related to the Canadian Emergency Rent Subsidies. For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2022, other gains, net is comprised primarily of gains on disposal of property, plant and equipment and foreign exchange gains offset by costs associated with strategic alternatives assessment.

Net earnings for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023, was $1.9 million or $0.07 per basic common share, compared with net earnings of $0.3 million or $0.01 per basic common share in the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA1 for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023, was $3.9 million compared with $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2022. Net earnings for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, was $3.9 million or $0.14 per basic common share, compared with net earnings of $1.5 million or $0.05 per basic common share in the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA1 for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, was $9.1 million compared with $4.9 million for the third quarter of 2022. As at Sept. 30, 2023, the corporation had $14.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and no borrowings.

Outlook and Forward-Looking Information

As at Sept. 30, 2023, McCoy's backlog totaled $24.7 million (US$18.3 million), which will support strong revenue and earnings performance for the remainder of 2023 and into 2024, though shifts in product mix may impact gross margins to some degree over the short term.

Over the short and medium term, forecasts for oil & gas market fundamentals continue to be robust for international markets, particularly the MENA and other international regions. In addition to increased drilling activity, new regional entrants paired with National Oil Companies' (NOC) strong focus on increased safety and efficiency will serve to further drive opportunities for our new products. We are well positioned to take advantage of these trends with market leading technologies that provide superior safety, efficiency, and simplified operating procedures, as well as expert technical support with local presence and the broadest portfolio of TRS equipment on the market.

The global CRT market continues to grow as customer preference shifts from running casing with traditional hydraulic power tongs to CRTs due to advantages of time and cost savings, risk reduction, and improved safety. This is another area of opportunity for McCoy with its DWCRT tool introduced in 2019. During the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2023, McCoy received orders from six (6) new customers and three (3) new geographies for its CRT technology. Looking ahead, we expect further growth in orders intake and revenue generation from this product line as we continue to gain market share with our product.

Turning to the North America land market, decreasing rig count and drilling activity experienced year-to-date negatively affects our legacy capital equipment and aftermarket sales in the region. We expect market conditions to remain flat in this region in the short-term, however, we expect robust order intake for our new FMS technology due to the performance and safety advantages inherent in its unique design, along with the ongoing labour challenges faced by many of our customers.

As we progress through the commercialization stage of our 'Digital Technology Roadmap' initiative, we expect future revenues to become less dependent on the cyclicality of drilling activity, and more driven by technology adoption, demand from new local and regional market entrants, and market share gains in new geographies.

For the remainder of 2023 and beyond, we continue to focus on our key strategic initiatives to deliver value to all our stakeholders:

Accelerating market adoption of new and recently developed 'smart' portfolio products;

Taking advantage of the current market trajectory by focusing on revenue generation from new and existing customers;

Focusing on capital allocation priorities; a) investment in growth through both organic and strategic M&A opportunities where returns are favourable and b) return excess cash to our shareholders in the form of share buy-backs and quarterly dividends.

We believe this strategy, together with our committed and agile team, McCoy's global brand recognition, application expertise, strong balance sheet, and global footprint will further advance McCoy's competitive position and generate strong returns on invested capital.
