Drilling Tools International Corp. Reports 2025 Third Quarter Results

Company maintains full year 2025 outlook

HOUSTON — November 6, 2025 — Drilling Tools International Corp., (NASDAQ: DTI) (“DTI” or the “Company”), a global oilfield services company that designs, engineers, manufactures and provides a differentiated, rental-focused offering of tools for use in onshore and offshore horizontal and directional drilling operations, as well as other cutting-edge solutions across the well life cycle, today reported its results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

DTI generated total consolidated revenue of $38.8 million in the third quarter of 2025. Third quarter Tool Rental revenue was $31.9 million, and Product Sales revenue totaled $7.0 million. Net Loss attributable to common stockholders for the third quarter was $903,000 or a loss of $0.03 per diluted share. Adjusted Net Income(1) was $751,000 and Adjusted Diluted EPS(1) for the third quarter $0.02 per share. Third quarter Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $9.1 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow(1)(2) was $5.6 million. As of September 30, 2025, DTI had approximately $4.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and Net Debt(1)of $46.9 million.

Wayne Prejean, President and Chief Executive Officer of DTI, stated, “Our proactive strategy outlined earlier this year of preparing for a market downturn and implementing strategic pricing adjustments allowed us to successfully outperform expectations in a challenging third quarter environment. Proactive communications with customers and our ability to flex pricing options in response to commodity price swings successfully stimulated higher activity levels during the quarter, offsetting the impact of pricing pressure. We also demonstrated strong financial discipline by simultaneously reducing debt, building cash reserves, and returning capital to shareholders through buybacks. Specifically, we paid down $5.6 million in debt, increased our cash position by $3.2 million, and bought back an additional $550,000 of common shares.

“We continue to benefit from our four acquisitions since becoming a public company with a more diversified geographic footprint and customer base as the rental tool business gains traction in the Eastern Hemisphere,” added Prejean. “Quarter over quarter, our Eastern Hemisphere segment grew revenue by 41% and contributed approximately 15% of our total revenue in the current quarter. We continue to be pleased with the strong performance of our organization as our efforts have helped DTI efficiently navigate the evolving energy landscape to deliver resilient financial results.

“Looking ahead, we expect the typical fourth quarter seasonality -- i.e. capital discipline, holiday whitespaces and budget exhaustion -- to affect activity levels, pricing and utilization. We are maintaining our previously disclosed full year guidance ranges, albeit leaning at or slightly above the midpoints of our ranges,” concluded Prejean.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Net Debt, Adjusted Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share, Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) measures. Each of the metrics are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net earnings or cash flows as determined by GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, (iii) restructuring charges, (iv) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and (v) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance of our business.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful because it allows us to supplement the GAAP measures in order to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, and we define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less Gross Capital Expenditures. We use Adjusted Free Cash Flow as a financial performance measure used for planning, forecasting, and evaluating our performance. We believe that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is useful to enable investors and others to perform comparisons of current and historical performance of the Company. As a performance measure, rather than a liquidity measure, the most closely comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss).

Net Debt is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, and we define Net Debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We use Net Debt to determine our outstanding debt obligations that would not be readily satisfied by our cash and cash equivalents on hand. We believe this metric is useful to analysts and investors in determining our leverage position since we have the ability to, and may decide to, use a portion of our cash and cash equivalents to reduce debt.

We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as consolidated net income (loss) adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) restructuring charges, (iii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iv) income taxes expense which is calculated by applying our effective tax rate on unadjusted net income to adjusted pre-tax income, and (v) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business. We believe Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is useful because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance.

We define Adjusted Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) per share as the quotient of adjusted net income (loss) and diluted weighted average common shares. We believe that Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per share provides useful information to investors because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance on a diluted per share basis.

The following tables present a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Net Income to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated:
