Background
Nine Energy Service, Inc. (the “Company” or “Nine”), a Delaware corporation, is an oilfield services business that provides services integral to the completion of unconventional wells through a full range of tools and methodologies. The Company is headquartered in Houston, Texas.
Risks and Uncertainties
As Nine is a spot-market business, the Company’s business and its pricing depends, to a significant extent, on the level of unconventional resource development activity and corresponding capital spending of oil and natural gas companies. These activity and spending levels are strongly influenced by current and expected oil and natural gas prices, which have been extremely volatile historically and in recent years. In addition, the Company’s earnings are affected by its ability to maintain current pricing levels, the impact of wage and labor inflation, labor shortages, and supply chain constraints. Due to the spot-market nature of its business, the Company’s revenue and earnings generally move very similarly to rig, frac, and stage counts in U.S. rig count.
Historically, the Company has met its liquidity needs principally from cash on hand, cash flow from operations and, if needed, external borrowings and issuances of debt securities. At September 30, 2025, the Company had $14.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $25.9 million of availability under the 2025 ABL Credit Facility (as defined in Note 8 – Debt Obligations), which resulted in a total liquidity position of $40.3 million. As in the past, the Company expects its liquidity position to be materially impacted by the semi-annual interest payments ($19.5 million each, based on amounts outstanding as of September 30, 2025) to the holders of the 2028 Notes (as defined in Note 8 – Debt Obligations).
At September 30, 2025, the Company had $63.3 million of outstanding borrowings under the 2025 ABL Credit Facility. The Company also had $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2028 Notes outstanding as of September 30, 2025. In order to satisfy these debt obligations and meet its long-term liquidity requirements generally, the Company may seek to refinance or restructure its indebtedness, seek additional sources of capital, sell assets, or undertake a combination thereof. Any such transactions may involve the issuance of additional equity or convertible debt securities that could result in material dilution to the Company’s stockholders, and these securities could have rights superior to holders of the Company’s common stock and could contain covenants that will restrict the Company’s operations. The Company’s ability to successfully execute any such plans is dependent on its operating performance, which, as noted above, depends, to a significant extent, on the level of activity and capital spending of oil and natural gas companies. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in executing these plans. If unsuccessful, the Company may not have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to repay its indebtedness when it matures or otherwise meet its long-term cash requirements.
