Innovex Announces First Quarter 2026 Results

Innovex International, Inc. (NYSE:INVX) ("Innovex," the "Company" or "we") today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2026.

First Quarter Highlights

• Revenue of $239 million, down 13% quarter-over-quarter and down 1% year-over-year
• Net Loss of $17 million and Net Loss Margin of (7)%
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $49 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin¹ of 21%
• Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities of $20 million
• Free Cash Flow¹ of $14 million
• Income from Operations of $89 million (twelve months ended March 31, 2026)
• Return on Capital Employed¹ of 12% (twelve months ended March 31, 2026)
• $201 million of cash and cash equivalents and no bank debt at quarter-end
• Substantially completed exit from the legacy Eldridge facility
• Awarded two significant subsea projects in Asia, each exceeding $20 million, including a comprehensive offshore package as well as a mudline wellhead and shallow water tree system award
• Delivered the first subsea wellhead order in Southeast Asia under the OneSubsea alliance
• Repurchased $14.1 million of our shares at a price of $24.59 per share
• Closed the acquisition of Drilling Innovative Solutions, LLC ("DIS") for $16 million at approximately 4x TTM EBITDA

Adam Anderson, CEO, commented, "We delivered a strong start to 2026, with revenue and Adjusted EBITDA both exceeding the high end of our guidance range. Revenue benefited from strong operational execution, new product introductions, and cross-selling across our global platform. Adjusted EBITDA benefited from favorable mix and earlier than anticipated benefits from the exit of the legacy Eldridge facility. These strong results reinforce our view that our subsea businesses can generate margins in excess of 20% when we apply our proven, capital-light business model. As we look forward, we continue to focus on both organic and inorganic investment opportunities, as well as generating strong free cash flow and exceptional shareholder returns. We believe the quarter demonstrates that our strategy is working. During the quarter, we completed the acquisition of DIS, which adds differentiated production technologies that complement our existing portfolio, strengthen our position in the U.S. offshore market, and create additional opportunities for organic growth. We continue to gain share across multiple markets through innovation, service quality, and the breadth of our integrated platform. We believe this combination of innovation, execution, and capital discipline continues to differentiate Innovex and supports our ability to deliver durable and profitable growth."

Kendal Reed, CFO, continued, "Our first quarter results reflect the strength of our capital-light, returns-focused business model. Adjusted EBITDA and margins benefited from favorable mix, as well as earlier-than-expected benefits from the transition out of the legacy Eldridge facility, which reduced the manufacturing footprint of our subsea businesses by approximately 85%. We generated strong Free Cash Flow in the quarter, converting approximately 28% of Adjusted EBITDA into free cash flow, and ended the quarter with approximately $201 million of cash and no bank debt, providing significant financial flexibility. The acquisition of DIS exemplifies our focus on returns. We believe we can grow this business significantly through our global distribution, further strengthening the attractive returns on this acquisition, which was purchased approximately at 4x TTM EBITDA. We also repurchased $14.1 million of our shares in the quarter for a price of $24.59 per share, underscoring our confidence in the intrinsic value of Innovex and our commitment to thoughtful capital allocation."

Operational & Financial Results

Kendal Reed, CFO commented, "We made progress against our margin goals in the first quarter, while also benefiting from favorable product mix. Strength in NAM Land and a meaningful increase in activity in Mexico helped offset softer activity in other international markets, which we view as timing-related and consistent with historical variability. We also saw modest operational impact from conflict-related disruptions in the Middle East, which partially offset the strength in NAM Land and Mexico during the quarter. From a capital allocation perspective, we remain focused on balancing organic investment with disciplined M&A. Our M&A pipeline remains robust, including a mix of smaller, bolt-on opportunities like DIS, as well as larger opportunities. We will only execute against this playbook if the opportunity aligns with our ‘big impact, small ticket' proposition, can generate high gross margins with low capital expenditures, and can be acquired at a reasonable multiple." Adam Anderson, CEO, concluded, "We are off to a strong start to 2026. I am particularly excited by the momentum in our subsea business. Not only are our margins improving, but we are also gaining share organically by focusing on customer pain points. In the quarter, we secured two major subsea awards in Asia, each exceeding $20 million in value. We also delivered the first subsea wellhead order under the OneSubsea alliance for a customer in Southeast Asia. In the Middle East, softer first quarter activity was driven primarily by timing-related factors. We remain encouraged by recent commercial progress in the region, including an offshore gas award in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as well as a contract extension for off-bottom liner systems and lower completions technologies. We continue to view the Middle East as an important long-term growth market. We continue to evaluate a number of inorganic growth opportunities but will only execute on these opportunities if they fit our unique value proposition, generate strong free cash flow, and are priced at a reasonable multiple. We look forward to discussing these should we decide to execute on them."

Balance Sheet, Debt, Cash Flow & Other

Net cash provided by operating activities was $20 million for the first quarter of 2026, while capital expenditures totaled $6 million (approximately 2.4% of revenue) for the first quarter of 2026.

Innovex generated Free Cash Flow of $14 million during the first quarter of 2026 and ended the quarter with approximately $201 million of cash and cash equivalents and no bank debt.

Innovex maintains a strong liquidity position and disciplined balance sheet to preserve flexibility and support high-return capital allocation opportunities. We continue to focus on M&A opportunities with strong quantitative and qualitative characteristics.

Return on Capital Employed ("ROCE")

Innovex's efficient capital allocation and capital-light business model enable the Company to generate strong returns on our invested capital. Income from operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2026 was $89 million. Return on Capital Employed ("ROCE") for the twelve months ended March 31, 2026 was 12%. We remain focused on capital efficiency, which we believe is a key driver of sustainable value creation for our stockholders.

Q2 2026 Guidance

Looking to the second quarter of 2026, Innovex expects to generate $235 - $245 million in total revenue and Adjusted EBITDA of $43 - $48 million. Our guidance reflects our expectation for a marginally less favorable product mix in Q2, as well as the potential for sales disruptions and higher costs associated with the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) as net income (loss) before interest (income) expense, income tax expense (benefit), net, depreciation and amortization, (gain) loss on sale of assets and other expense, net, further adjusted to exclude certain items which we believe are not reflective of our ongoing performance or which are non-cash in nature. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the profitability of our business operations and to compare our operating performance to our competitors without regard to the impact of financing methods and capital structure and excluding costs that management believes do not reflect our ongoing operating performance. We track Adjusted EBITDA on an absolute dollar basis and as a percentage of revenue, which we refer to as Adjusted EBITDA Margin.

Free Cash Flow

We also utilize Free Cash Flow (a non-GAAP measure) to evaluate the cash generated by our operations and results of operations. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Management believes Free Cash Flow is useful because it demonstrates the cash that was available in the period that was in excess of our needs to fund our capital expenditures. We track Free Cash Flow both on an absolute dollar basis and as a percentage of revenue. Free Cash Flow does not represent our residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures, as we have non-discretionary expenditures, including, but not limited to, any principal payments required under the terms of our credit facility, which are not deducted in calculating Free Cash Flow.

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE)

We utilize Return on Capital Employed ("ROCE") (a non-GAAP measure) to assess the effectiveness of our capital allocation over time and to compare our capital efficiency to our competitors. We define ROCE as income from operations excluding acquisition and integration costs, litigation related expenses not reflective of our ongoing operating performance, and income tax expense (resulting in Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax) divided by average capital employed. Capital employed is defined as the combined values of debt and stockholders' equity. We revised our definition of ROCE and Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax to exclude litigation related expenses not reflective of our ongoing operating performance, which for the twelve months ended March 31, 2026 is reflective of the costs related to the Impulse Litigation. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of the aforementioned litigation related expenses eliminated in calculating Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax and ROCE provides useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. We did not revise prior years' Adjusted Income from Operations, after tax or ROCE because there were no other charges similar in nature to these costs.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and ROCE do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income and net cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our financial performance. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and ROCE may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see tables below.

Management has provided outlook regarding Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure and excludes certain charges. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the corresponding GAAP financial measure has not been provided because guidance for the various reconciling items is not provided. The Company is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because they cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of the Company's control and cannot be reasonably predicted since these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.
