Mammoth Energy Services, Inc. reported a drop in first quarter 2022 revenue and a net loss of nearly $15 million or 32 cents a share.
The Oklahoma City company stated it had total revenue of $62.3 million for the three-months that ended March 31 compared to $66.8 million for the same quarter a year earlier. However the new revenue was an increase from the $57.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2022 was $14.8 million, or a $0.32 loss per share, as compared to $12.4 million, or a $0.27 loss per share, for the same quarter of 2021, and $13.3 million, or a $0.28 loss per share, for the fourth quarter of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA was $9.3 million for the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $9.2 million for the same quarter of 2021 and $17.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021.
Despite the loss and decline in revenue, Arty Straehla, Chief Executive Officer said the company was able to maintain positive top line momentum during the first quarter, “—which we believe is a trend that will continue into the second quarter and back half of 2022.”
He said pricing and utilization rates continue to increase and grow revenue in the firm’s well completions and drilling services segments.
“Similarly, strong industry tailwinds persist in the infrastructure space where we continue to compete for new project work. During the first quarter of 2022, the revenue contribution from our infrastructure services segment increased as a percentage of our total revenue and we are seeing an increasing number of opportunities in this segment,” said Straehla.
Mammoth’s infrastructure services division contributed revenue of $23.0 million, or approximately 37% of Mammoth’s total revenue, for the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $30.2 million for the same quarter of 2021 and $19.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease in revenue compared to the same quarter of 2021 is primarily due to a decline in storm activity, resulting in lower storm restoration revenue.
Mammoth’s well completion services division contributed revenue of $23.9 million on 699 stages for the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $23.0 million on 445 stages for the same quarter of 2021 and $21.3 million on 891 stages for the fourth quarter of 2021. On average, 1.6 of the Company’s fleets were active for the first quarter of 2022, compared to an average utilization of 0.9 fleets during the same quarter of 2021 and 1.6 fleets during the fourth quarter of 2021. As of May 5, 2022, we were operating three of our six pressure pumping fleets.
Mammoth’s natural sand proppant services division contributed revenue of $9.2 million for the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $8.7 million for the same quarter of 2021 and $10.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. In the first quarter of 2022, the company sold approximately 329,000 tons of sand at an average sales price of $21.44 per ton, as compared to sales of approximately 171,000 tons of sand at an average sales price of $16.83 per ton during the same quarter of 2021. In the fourth quarter of 2021, sales were approximately 270,000 tons of sand at an average price of $17.84 per ton.
Mammoth’s drilling services division contributed revenue of $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2022, as compared to $0.9 million for the same quarter of 2021 and $1.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase is due to an increase in utilization for Mammoth’s directional drilling business.
As of May 5, 2022, Mammoth had cash on hand of $6.9 million and outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility of $84.7 million. As of May 5, 2022, the Company had $10.3 million of available borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility, after giving effect to $7.5 million of outstanding letters of credit and the requirement to maintain a $10.0 million reserve out of the available borrowing capacity.
