Scott Bender, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Cactus, commented, “First quarter 2025 revenues in both segments exceeded our expectations. Strength in Spoolable Technologies was driven by non-U.S. product sales, which increased sequentially, while the outperformance in Pressure Control was driven by record
1


levels of product sold per rig followed. Margins in both segments remained resilient. Cash flow conversion was lower than our usual cadence in the first quarter as working capital increased on particularly strong revenue performance in March in both segments. Additionally, as mentioned last quarter, we made a deferred cash tax payment in January and incurred elevated capex and investments largely due to a Vietnam supply chain investment.”
“In the second quarter of 2025, we anticipate that the U.S. land rig count will decline from today's levels as customers reset their operating budgets given lower commodity pricing and an increasingly uncertain global economic outlook. We anticipate exiting Q2 with the U.S. land rig count below today's levels, with potential for further activity reductions to continue as the year progresses. In Pressure Control, we expect revenues to be down modestly. In Spoolable Technologies, we expect a typical seasonal sales expansion in the second quarter, despite industry activity headwinds, as a result of record first quarter orders achieved during the period.”

Mr. Bender concluded, “Tariff policies and the associated uncertainty have led to a rapidly deteriorating global economic outlook, impacting our whole industry. We anticipate our results will face headwinds in the near-term as our input costs increase in both segments due to elevated tariff rates, though to a lesser degree in our Spoolable Technologies business. We are taking several actions to mitigate the current impacts of increased tariff rates, such as accelerating production from Vietnam, and we expect these actions to be largely complete within twelve months. We believe our strong balance sheet, diversifying supply chain, historically supportive customer base, and the capital-light nature of our business will enable us to successfully navigate this market, as we have proven in previous downcycles. As always, we intend to take appropriate and timely actions to protect margins, returns and cash flows.”

Segment Performance
We report two business segments, Pressure Control and Spoolable Technologies. Corporate and other expenses not directly attributable to either segment are presented separately as Corporate and Other expenses.

Pressure Control

First quarter 2025 Pressure Control revenue increased $13.6 million, or 7.7%, sequentially, primarily due to increased sales of wellhead and production related equipment resulting from increased customer drilling efficiencies. Operating income increased $3.5 million, or 6.9%, sequentially, on the higher volume, with margins decreasing 20 basis points due to reserves taken in connection with litigation claims. Adjusted Segment EBITDA increased $3.3 million, or 5.3%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins decreasing 80 basis points.

Spoolable Technologies

First quarter 2025 Spoolable Technologies revenues decreased $3.5 million, or 3.6%, sequentially, due to reduced customer activity levels in the seasonally slow first quarter. Operating income decreased $1.6 million, or 6.5%, sequentially, on lower volume, while margins decreased 80 basis points on lower operating leverage. Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased $1.8 million, or 5.0%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins decreasing 50 basis points.

2


Corporate and Other Expenses

First quarter 2025 Corporate and Other expenses increased $3.7 million, or 62.7%, sequentially, primarily due to professional fees associated with growth initiatives.

Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $347.7 million of cash and cash equivalents, no bank debt outstanding, and $222.6 million of availability on our revolving credit facility. Operating cash flow was $41.5 million for the first quarter of 2025. During the first quarter, the Company made dividend payments and associated distributions of $10.7 million.

Net capital expenditures were $15.5 million during the first quarter of 2025, inclusive of a meaningful supply chain equity investment into a Vietnam manufacturing facility to enable more rapid expansion of our local manufacturing capacity. For the full year 2025, the Company now expects net capital expenditures to be in the range of $40 to $50 million, inclusive of capital directed towards supply chain diversification efforts and efficiency improvements in the Baytown manufacturing facility, a reduction of $5 million from prior guidance considering the revised market outlook. We are continuing to evaluate further reductions to our capital spending program for the year.

As of March 31, 2025, Cactus had 68,390,114 shares of Class A common stock outstanding (representing 85.7% of the total voting power) and 11,432,545 shares of Class B common stock outstanding (representing 14.3% of the total voting power).
Quarterly Dividend
The Board of Directors has approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.13 per share of Class A common stock with payment to occur on June 20, 2025 to holders of record of Class A common stock at the close of business on June 2, 2025. A corresponding distribution of up to $0.13 per CC Unit has also been approved for holders of CC Units of Cactus Companies, LLC.

Cactus, Inc. – Supplemental Information
Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin
(unaudited)

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Cactus defines EBITDA as net income excluding net interest, income tax and depreciation and amortization. Cactus defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding the other items outlined below.
Cactus management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful because they allow management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period without regard to financing methods or capital structure, or other items that impact comparability of financial results from period to period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s computations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Cactus defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. Cactus presents this supplemental information because it believes it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.

Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin
(unaudited)

Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Cactus defines Adjusted Segment EBITDA as segment operating income excluding depreciation and amortization and the other items outlined below, in each case, that are attributable to the segment.
Cactus management believes Adjusted Segment EBITDA is useful because it allows management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s segment operating performance and compare the results of its segment operations from period to period without regard to financing methods or capital structure, or other items that impact comparability of financial results from period to period. Adjusted Segment EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s computations of Adjusted Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Cactus defines Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin as Adjusted Segment EBITDA divided by total segment revenue.
