Orders: $221 million, book-to-bill ratio of 106%
Revenue: $209 million
Net income and adjusted net income: $4 million and $6 million
Adjusted EBITDA: $23 million
Share repurchases: $5 million returned to shareholders
2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance increased: $95 - $110 million

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:FET) today announced first quarter 2026 revenue of $209 million and net income of $4 million or $0.39 per diluted share. Adjusting for restructuring costs, net income was $6 million or approximately $0.47 per diluted share.¹

Neal Lux, President and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, "FET's first quarter results continued our momentum from 2025, with revenue and adjusted EBITDA growing 8% and 14% year-over-year. We received strong orders for our differentiated products and increased our backlog 44% compared to the first quarter 2025. The execution of our "Beat the Market" strategy continues to yield share gains.

"The conflict in the Middle East has produced significant hardships for the region. Thankfully, our employees remain safe and we experienced minimal impact to our financial results. Longer term, we expect elevated commodity prices and increased upstream spending to drive demand for FET's innovative products and technology. The combination of market expansion and our "Beat the Market" strategy's results provide additional confidence we will achieve our long-term FET 2030 goals.

"In the near term, we expect second quarter results to increase substantially, with adjusted EBITDA between $24 and $30 million. This performance will be driven by backlog conversion, cost savings, and market share gains. While we are seeing signs of increased industry activity, our current forecast conservatively assumes a flat market. However, with a strong start to the year, we are raising the mid-point of our full year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $103 million, a 20% percent increase over 2025 results."

Segment Results (unless otherwise noted, comparisons are first quarter 2026 versus fourth quarter 2025)

Drilling and Completions segment revenue was $127 million, comparable to the previous quarter. Adjusted EBITDA of $13 million increased 6%, benefiting from cost savings initiatives and improved plant utilization related to facilities consolidation. Book-to-bill was 107%, due to higher demand for capital equipment in both the Stimulation and Intervention and the Drilling product lines, and increased demand for wireline cables. Drilling and Completions provides consumable products and capital equipment for drilling, subsea, coiled tubing, wireline, and stimulation markets.

Artificial Lift and Downhole segment revenue was $82 million, a 9% increase, due to increased volumes across all product lines. Adjusted EBITDA of $17 million was relatively flat due primarily to unfavorable product mix. Book-to-bill was 104%, primarily due to an increase in valve product demand. Artificial Lift and Downhole engineers, manufactures, and supplies products for well construction, artificial lift, and oil and natural gas processing.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company presents its financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that non-GAAP measures are useful tools for evaluating the Company's overall financial performance. Not all companies define these measures in the same way. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for those prepared in accordance with GAAP and should, therefore, be considered only as a supplement. Please see the attached schedules for reconciliations between GAAP and the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release. The company is unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income because items that impact GAAP net income, such as restructuring charges, transaction expenses, and foreign exchange losses (gains), cannot be reasonably predicted.

In addition, EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.

⁽¹⁾ The book-to-bill ratio is calculated by dividing the dollar value of orders received in a given period by the revenue earned in that same period. The Company believes that this ratio is useful to investors because it provides an indication of whether the demand for our products is strengthening or declining. A ratio of greater than one is indicative of improving market demand, while a ratio of less than one would suggest weakening demand. In addition, the Company believes the book-to-bill ratio provides more meaningful insight into future revenues for our business than other measures, such as order backlog, because the majority of our products are activity based consumable items or shorter cycle capital equipment, neither of which are typically ordered by customers far in advance.

⁽¹⁾ The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating loss, adjusted net loss and adjusted diluted EPS are useful to investors because (i) each of these financial metrics are useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of normal operating results and (ii) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, these benchmarks are widely used in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
⁽²⁾ Foreign exchange, net primarily relates to cash and receivables denominated in U.S. dollars by some of our non-U.S. subsidiaries that report in a local currency, and therefore the loss (gain) has no economic impact in dollar terms.

⁽¹⁾ Includes transaction expenses, and gain (loss) on disposal of assets and other.
⁽²⁾ The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA is useful to investors because EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.

Artificial Lift and Downhole		1.04			0.88			1.07
Total book to bill ratio		1.06			1.04			0.93

⁽¹⁾ The book-to-bill ratio is calculated by dividing the dollar value of orders received in a given period by the revenue earned in that same period. The Company believes that this ratio is useful to investors because it provides an indication of whether the demand for our products is strengthening or declining. A ratio of greater than one is indicative of improving market demand, while a ratio of less than one would suggest weakening demand. In addition, the Company believes the book-to-bill ratio provides more meaningful insight into future revenues for our business than other measures, such as order backlog, because the majority of our products are activity based consumable items or shorter cycle capital equipment, neither of which are typically ordered by customers far in advance.

⁽¹⁾ The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating loss, adjusted net loss and adjusted diluted EPS are useful to investors because (i) each of these financial metrics are useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of normal operating results and (ii) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, these benchmarks are widely used in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
⁽²⁾ Foreign exchange, net primarily relates to cash and receivables denominated in U.S. dollars by some of our non-U.S. subsidiaries that report in a local currency, and therefore the loss (gain) has no economic impact in dollar terms.

It reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing securities, and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community.
