See Tables 1-6 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
Neal Lux, President and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, “2023 was a transformative year for FET. In addition to executing our strategy, we accomplished two significant milestones that accelerate FET’s long-term growth trajectory. We began the year by reducing our long-term debt by 48%, and we ended the year with the Variperm acquisition announcement.
1

“This highly accretive acquisition demonstrates strong industrial logic. Variperm’s differentiated products and patent-protected technologies complement our artificial lift product portfolio, expanding the total addressable market for FET.
“Together, we are a formidable manufacturer of highly engineered products and solutions that we expect will generate significant financial returns for our shareholders. In 2024, we are forecasting EBITDA of $100 to $120 million and free cash flow between $40 to $60 million.
“We executed our strategy, adapted to volatile market conditions, and benefited from our strong global footprint, delivering revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth of 6% and 14%, respectively. Our full year 2023 book-to-bill ratio was just under 100%. The Subsea Technologies product line led the way with a book-to-bill ratio of 129% and doubled its backlog from the beginning of the year. Revenue grew in all our international regions, led by a 72% increase in the Middle East. In the aggregate, international revenue increased 23%, twice the pace of international rig count growth.
“FET also benefited from increasing customer adoption of its differentiated technology portfolio. We commercialized several new products that we believe will drive revenue growth, including our frac automated switch technology system, FASTConnect, and the next generation iron roughneck. In addition, our Coiled Tubing product line set new world records for length and weight of two different strings, both for the Middle East.
“Our long-term outlook for the industry has not changed. The world needs more energy. FET will be a leading equipment manufacturer, delivering solutions that allow for safer, cleaner, and more efficient energy production.”
Segment Results (unless otherwise noted, comparisons are fourth quarter 2023 versus third quarter 2023)
Drilling & Downhole segment revenue was $91 million, a 12% increase, mainly due to higher project revenue recognized from ROVs and cable management systems in our Subsea Technologies product line. This increase was partially offset by lower sales volume in our Downhole Technologies product line. Orders were $79 million, a 17% decrease, following strong third quarter bookings for new remotely operated vehicles in our Subsea Technologies product line. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $11 million, flat sequentially. Drilling & Downhole operations focus primarily on capital equipment and consumable products for global well construction, artificial lift, and subsea markets.
Completions segment revenue was $57 million, a 8% decrease, primarily related to lower shipments for coiled tubing products. Orders were $58 million, a 11% decrease, primarily due to a softer completions activity market in the U.S. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $7 million, comparable to third quarter 2023 due to favorable product mix. The Completions segment designs and manufactures products for the coiled tubing, wireline and well stimulation markets.
2

Production segment revenue was $37 million, comparable to third quarter 2023, due to higher demand for our processing equipment and technologies. The benefit of this higher demand was offset by lower valve product sales. Orders were $23 million, a 40% decrease, due to the timing of lumpy Production Equipment orders. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $2 million, comparable to the third quarter 2023. The Production segment manufactures land well site production equipment, desalination processing equipment, and a wide range of valves for upstream, midstream and process industry customers.

(1) Includes transaction expenses, gain on sale-leaseback transaction and gain (loss) on disposal of assets and other.
(2) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA is useful to the Company's investors because EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the Company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's 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.

Total book to bill ratio |  | 0.87 |  |  | 1.13 |  |  | 1.11 |
(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 the Company's 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 the Company's 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 the Company's normal operating results and (ii) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's 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.
