Company History
KLX Energy Services was initially formed from the combination of seven private oilfield service companies acquired during 2013 and 2014. The Company continued to selectively acquire regional and product line specific businesses through 2019 to expand our service capabilities and broaden our geographic presence. Once the acquisitions were completed, we undertook a comprehensive integration of these businesses to align our services, our people and our assets across all the geographic regions where we maintain a presence. We acquired Quintana Energy Services, Inc. (“QES”) during the second quarter of 2020 and, by doing so, helped establish KLXE as an industry leading provider of asset-light oilfield solutions across the full well lifecycle to the major onshore oil and gas producing regions of the United States.
The merger of KLXE and QES (the “QES Merger”) provided increased scale to serve a blue-chip customer base across the onshore oil and gas basins in the United States. The QES Merger combined two strong company cultures comprised of highly talented teams with shared commitments to safety, performance, customer service and profitability. The combination leveraged two of the largest fleets of coiled tubing and wireline assets, resulting in KLXE becoming a leading diversified provider of drilling, completions and production services, with market leadership positions in coiled tubing and fishing services. After closing the QES Merger, the Company integrated personnel, facilities, processes and systems across all functional areas of the organization.
On March 8, 2023, KLXE acquired all of the equity interests of Greene’s Energy Group, LLC (“Greene’s”), in an all-stock transaction, including $1.7 in cash remaining at Greene's, which was subsequently adjusted to $1.1 due to a $0.6 working capital adjustment.
On June 2, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), KLXE completed the acquisition of certain assets owned by Wolf Pack Rentals, LLC (the “Wolf Pack Acquisition”). The purchase price for the Wolf Pack Acquisition is $16.9, subject to customary post-closing adjustments and to be paid as follows: (i) on the Closing Date, the Buyer paid the Seller $14.1; (ii) two deferred payments of $1.5 each, to be paid at 180 and 360 days after the Closing Date, either in cash or shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), in its sole discretion, with a net present value of $2.7; and (iii) estimated post-closing adjustment to the purchase price of $0.1.
Looking ahead, the Company expects to continue to pursue opportunistic, strategic, accretive acquisitions that would be expected to further strengthen the Company’s competitive positioning and capital structure and drive efficiencies, accelerate growth and create long‑term stockholder value.
Company Overview

Table of Contents
We serve many of the leading companies engaged in the exploration and development of onshore conventional and unconventional oil and natural gas reserves in the United States. Our customers are primarily large independent and major oil and gas companies. We currently support these customer operations from over 60 service facilities located in the key major shale basins. We operate in three segments on a geographic basis, including the Rocky Mountains Region (the Bakken, Williston, DJ, Uinta, Powder River, Piceance and Niobrara basins), the Southwest Region (the Permian Basin, Eagle Ford Shale and the Gulf Coast as well as in industrial and petrochemical facilities) and the Northeast/Mid-Con Region (the Marcellus and Utica Shale as well as the Mid-Continent STACK and SCOOP and Haynesville Shale). Our revenues, operating earnings and identifiable assets are primarily attributable to these three reportable geographic segments. While we manage our business based upon these geographic groupings, our assets and our technical personnel are deployed on a dynamic basis across all of our service facilities to optimize utilization and profitability.
These expansive operating areas provide us with access to a number of nearby unconventional crude oil and natural gas basins, both with existing customers expanding their production footprint and third parties acquiring new acreage. Our proximity to existing and prospective customer activities allows us to anticipate and respond quickly to such customers’ needs and efficiently deploy our assets. We believe that our strategic geographic positioning will benefit us as activity increases in our core operating areas. Our broad geographic footprint provides us with exposure to the ongoing recovery in drilling, completion, production and intervention related service activity and will allow us to opportunistically pursue new business in basins with active drilling environments.
We work with our customers to provide engineered solutions across the lifecycle of the well by streamlining operations, reducing non-productive time and developing cost effective solutions and customized tools for our customers’ challenging service needs, including their technically complex extended reach horizontal wells. We believe future revenue growth opportunities will continue to be driven by increases in the number of new customers served and the breadth of services we offer to existing and prospective customers.
We offer a variety of targeted services that are differentiated by the technical competence and experience of our field service engineers and their deployment of a broad portfolio of specialized tools and proprietary equipment. Our innovative and adaptive approach to proprietary tool design has been employed by our in-house research and development (“R&D”) organization and, in selected instances, by our technology partners to develop tools covered by 40 patents and 6 pending patent applications, which we believe differentiates us from our regional competitors and also allows us to deliver more focused service and better outcomes in our specialized services than larger national competitors that do not discretely dedicate their resources to the services we provide.
We utilize contract manufacturers to produce our products, which, in many cases, our engineers have developed from input and requests from our customers and customer-facing managers, thereby maintaining the integrity of our intellectual property while avoiding manufacturing startup and maintenance costs. This approach leverages our technical strengths, as well as those of our technology partners. These services and related products are modest in cost to the customer relative to other well construction expenditures but have a high cost of failure and are, therefore, critical to our customers’ outcomes. We believe our customers have come to depend on our decades of field experience to execute on some of the most challenging problems they face. We believe we are well positioned as a company to service customers when they are drilling and completing complex wells, and remediating both newer and older legacy wells.
We invest in innovative technology and equipment designed for modern production techniques that increase efficiencies and production for our customers. North American unconventional onshore wells are increasingly characterized by extended lateral lengths, tighter spacing between hydraulic fracturing stages, increased cluster density and heightened proppant loads. Drilling and completion activities for wells in unconventional resource plays are extremely complex, and downhole challenges and operating costs increase as the complexity and lateral length of these wells increase. For these reasons, E&P companies with complex wells increasingly prefer service providers with the scale and resources to deliver best-in-class solutions that evolve in real-time with the technology used for extraction. We believe we offer best-in-class service execution at the

wellsite and innovative downhole technologies, positioning us to benefit from our ability to service technically complex wells where the potential for increased operating leverage is high due to the large number of stages per well.
We endeavor to create a next generation oilfield services company in terms of management controls, processes and operating metrics, and have driven these processes down through the operating management structure in every region, which we believe differentiates us from many of our competitors. This allows us to offer our customers in all of our geographic regions discrete, comprehensive and differentiated services that leverage both the technical expertise of our skilled engineers and our in-house R&D team.
Recent Trends and Outlook
Demand for services in the oil and natural gas industry is cyclical and subject to sudden and significant volatility. So far in 2026, factors affecting oil prices have included instability and conflict in the Middle East, output increases from the largest oil-producing countries and changes in the growth rate of the U.S. and world economies. Oil and natural gas prices have been, and may remain, volatile, which impacts demand for our business. West Texas Intermediate’s (“WTI") average daily price per barrel increased by approximately 48.1%, to $95.65 per Bbl during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the WTI average daily price per barrel of $64.57 per Bbl during the three months ended June 30, 2025. Prices during the quarter were volatile, swinging between $70.30 at their lowest and $114.58 at their highest. As of June 30, 2026, U.S. land rig count stood at 561, which is an increase of 5.8% compared to the rig count at the prior quarter-end of 530 and an increase of 6.5% compared to December 31, 2025, when the U.S. land rig count was 527.
Looking ahead to the year ending December 31, 2026, assuming economic activity holds at the recent level and commodity prices remain volatile, we anticipate that our customers will continue to cautiously allocate capital. So far in the year ending December 31, 2026, WTI prices have increased when the conflict with Iran intensified and have decreased when the conflict deescalated. Although we expect this dynamic to hold for the foreseeable future, it is difficult to anticipate future changes in price. As oil price remains above the break-even level for most operators, we expect the industry to retain a cautious approach to drilling and completion expansion.
Oil and natural gas prices may fluctuate with changes in demand due to, among other things, the ongoing war in Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas conflict, the conflict with Iran, international sanctions, speculation as to future actions by OPEC+, gas prices, interest rates, inflation and government efforts to reduce inflation, and possible changes in the overall health of the global economy, including a perceived economic recovery or any increased volatility in financial and credit markets, the imposition of increased, new and retaliatory tariffs or a recession. To what extent these and other external factors (such as government action with respect to climate change regulation) ultimately impact our future business, liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations is highly uncertain and dependent on numerous factors, including future developments, that are not within our control and cannot be accurately predicted.
We believe our diverse product and service offerings uniquely position KLXE to respond to a rapidly evolving marketplace where we can provide a comprehensive suite of engineered solutions for our customers with one call and one master services agreement.
How We Generate Revenue and the Costs of Conducting Our Business
Our business strategy seeks to generate attractive returns on capital by providing differentiated services and prudently applying our cash flow to select targeted opportunities, with the potential to deliver high returns that we believe offer superior margins over the long-term and short payback periods. Our services generally require equipment that is less expensive to maintain and is operated by a smaller staff than many other oilfield services providers. As part of our returns-focused approach to capital spending, we are focused on efficiently utilizing capital to develop new products. We support our existing asset base with targeted investments in R&D, which we believe allows us to maintain a technical advantage over our competitors providing similar services using standard equipment.

Demand for services in the oil and natural gas industry is cyclical and subject to sudden and significant volatility. We remain focused on serving the needs of our customers by providing a broad portfolio of product service lines across major basins, while preserving a solid balance sheet, maintaining sufficient operating liquidity and prudently managing our capital expenditures.
We believe we have strong management systems in place, which will allow us to manage our operating resources and associated expenses relative to market conditions. Historically, we believe our services have generated margins superior to our competitors based upon the differential quality of our performance, and that these margins may contribute to future cash flow generation. The required investment in our business includes both working capital (principally for accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable growth tied to increasing activity) and capital expenditures for both maintenance of existing assets and ultimately growth when economic returns justify the spending. Our required maintenance capital expenditures tend to be lower than other oilfield service providers due to the generally asset-light nature of our services, the lower average age of our assets and our ability to charge back a portion of asset maintenance to customers for a number of our assets.

Total revenue $ 167.3 $ 159.0 5.2 %
For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, revenues were $167.3, an increase of $8.3, or 5.2%, as compared with the prior year period. The overall increase in revenues reflects an increase in activity during the quarter, leading to higher demand for our services. Higher weighted average volume contributed to approximately all of the $8.3 increase. On a segment basis, Rocky Mountains segment revenue decreased by $3.3 or 6.1%. Lower weighted average volume contributed to approximately all of the dollar decrease. Southwest segment revenue increased by $5.7 or 9.7%. Higher weighted average price contributed to approximately 22% of the dollar increase, and higher weighted average volume contributed to the remaining approximately 78%. Northeast/Mid-Con segment revenue increased by $5.9 or 12.8%. Higher weighted average volume contributed to approximately all of the dollar increase.
Cost of sales. For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, cost of sales were $130.9, or 78.2% of sales, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025 of $125.6, or 79.0% of sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues decreased primarily due to higher leverage of fixed costs during the quarter. The two largest components of cost of sales are labor and repair & maintenance. As cost of sales as a percentage of revenues increased, labor costs per employee increased by 5.7% as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2025. Repair & maintenance costs as a percentage of revenues decreased by 9.0% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, due to the higher pricing during the quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”). For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, SG&A expenses were $19.0, or 11.4% of revenues, as compared with $18.0, or 11.3% of revenues, in the prior year period. SG&A expenses decreased slightly while revenues increased during the quarter, which caused the percentage of revenues to improve compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Operating (loss) income. The following is a summary of operating (loss) income by segment:

Table of Contents
Three Months Ended
June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 % Change
Operating income (loss):
Rocky Mountains $ 0.2 $ 3.3 (93.9) %
Southwest 0.2 (1.7) 111.8 %
Northeast/Mid-Con 5.1 (1.3) 492.3 %
Corporate and other (3.4) (9.0) 62.2 %
Total operating income (loss) $ 2.1 $ (8.7) 124.1 %
For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, operating income was $2.1 compared to operating loss of $8.7 in the prior year period, due to an increase in activity and pricing.
The operating results across our three geographic segments broadly declined as a function of lower revenues compared to the prior year period. Rocky Mountains segment operating income was $0.2, Southwest segment operating income was $0.2, and Northeast/Mid-Con segment operating income was $5.1 for the three months ended June 30, 2026.
Income tax (benefit) expense. For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, income tax benefit was $1.7, as compared to income tax expense of $0.2 in the prior year period, with the change primarily due to a deferred tax benefit recognized from the reduction in the valuation allowance, offset by state and local taxes. The Company did not recognize a federal tax benefit on its year-to-date losses because it has a full valuation allowance recorded against its net deferred tax assets.
Net loss. For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, net loss was $8.4, as compared to net loss of $19.9 in the prior year period, improving primarily as a result of higher leverage of fixed costs as discussed above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, revenues were $312.0, a decrease of $1.0, or 0.3%, as compared with the prior year period. The overall decrease in revenues reflects a slight decline in activity during the six months ended, leading to lower demand for our services. Lower weighted average price contributed to approximately all of the $1.0 decrease. On a segment basis, Rocky Mountains segment revenue decreased by $12.5 or 12.3%. This decrease was driven predominantly by a decrease in weighted average price. Southwest segment revenue decreased by $5.9 or 4.8%. Lower weighted average price contributed to approximately 71% of the decrease, and lower weighted average volume contributed to the remaining approximately 29%. Northeast/Mid-Con segment revenue increased by $17.4 or 20.0%. Higher weighted average price contributed to approximately 51% of the dollar increase, and higher weighted average volume contributed to the remaining approximately 49%.

Net loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net loss was $32.4, as compared to net loss of $47.8 in the prior year period, improving primarily as a result of improvements in profitability in the Northeast/Mid-Con and Corporate.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We require capital to fund ongoing operations, including maintenance expenditures on our existing fleet and equipment, organic growth initiatives, debt service obligations, investments and acquisitions. Our primary sources of liquidity to date have been capital contributions from our equity and note holders, borrowings under our Prior ABL Facility (as defined below) and 2028 ABL Facility (as defined below) and cash flows from operations. At June 30, 2026, we had $7.9 of cash and cash equivalents, and $45.4 available capacity under the 2028 ABL Facility.
We have taken several actions to continue to improve our liquidity position, including efficiencies gained from the QES Merger, equity issuances under our ATM Offering program, debt-for-equity exchanges that have reduced interest burden and monetized non-core and obsolete assets. Most recently, we completed a refinancing of our long-term indebtedness on March 12, 2025, as described in greater detail under “—Refinancing”, “—ABL Facilities—2028 ABL Facility” and “—Senior Secured Notes—2030 Senior Notes” below. As market conditions warrant and subject to our contractual restrictions, liquidity position and other factors, we may further access the public or private debt and equity markets or seek to recapitalize, refinance or otherwise restructure our capital structure. On August 6, 2026, our Board approved a backstopped Rights Offering expected to result in gross proceeds of up to $125.0 and a $94.0 reduction in the outstanding principal amount of the 2030 Senior Notes. The Company intends to use any net cash proceeds it receives in connection with the Rights Offering up to $31.0 for general corporate purposes, and for any amounts over $31.0, the Company intends to repurchase 2030 Senior Notes at par, which is permitted under the Backstop Agreement. For additional information, see “Note 13 - Subsequent Events” above.

Table of Contents
Our ability to comply with the covenants in our debt instruments and pay the principal and interest on our debt and to satisfy our other liabilities will depend on our future operating performance and our ability to refinance our debt as it becomes due. Our future operating performance and ability to refinance such indebtedness will be affected by prevailing economic and political conditions, the level of drilling, completion, production and intervention services activity for North American onshore oil and natural gas resources, the willingness of capital providers to lend to our industry and other financial and business factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, incurring additional debt in excess of our existing outstanding indebtedness would result in increased interest expense and financial leverage, and issuing Common Stock may result in dilution to our current stockholders.
In order to ensure our continued compliance with the maximum total net leverage ratio covenant under the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, on March 6, 2026, the requisite Investors (as defined below) agreed to execute the First Amendment to the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture (the “First Amendment to the Indenture”) to provide financial covenant relief, described more fully below under “2030 Senior Notes.” In connection with the entry into the First Amendment to the Indenture, we issued warrants for our Common Stock (the “Warrants”) to our Investors, based on their pro rata ownership of principal amount of the 2030 Senior Notes, providing for the purchase of up to 803,712 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, subject to adjustment, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
Our 2028 ABL Facility matures on March 7, 2028 and we intend to work with our existing lenders or other sources of capital to refinance the 2028 ABL Facility.
In light of our substantial leverage position, as market conditions warrant and subject to our contractual restrictions, liquidity position and other factors, we have evaluated several alternatives for deleveraging including debt for equity exchanges, non-core asset sales or other potential transactions to recapitalize, refinance or otherwise restructure our capital structure and our Board has determined to move forward with the Rights Offering described above. For risks associated with the Rights Offering, please see “Part II. Item 1A Risk Factors-Risks Related to the Rights Offering” below.
We actively manage our capital spending and are focused primarily on required maintenance spending. For the past couple of years, due to increasing oil prices leading to an increase in demand for our services, our operating cash flow has been positive. Based on our current forecasts, we believe our cash on hand, availability under the New ABL Facility and our cash flows will provide us with the ability to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months.
Refinancing
On March 7, 2025, the Company and certain of our subsidiaries party thereto entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain holders (the “Investors”) of our 11.5% senior secured notes due 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors (a) approximately $232.2 in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Floating Rate Cash / PIK Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes” and, together with the 2025 Senior Notes, the “Senior Secured Notes”) and (b) warrants entitling the holders thereof to purchase, in the aggregate, up to 2,373,187 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, subject to adjustment in exchange for (i) approximately $78.4 in aggregate cash consideration and (ii) approximately $143.6 aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Senior Notes, which were cancelled by the Company upon receipt thereof (collectively, the “Refinancing”). The Company consummated the Refinancing on March 12, 2025.
Senior Secured Notes
2030 Senior Notes
On March 12, 2025, as part of the Refinancing, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture, with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as the trustee and notes collateral agent, pursuant to which $232.2 of the 2030 Senior Notes were issued. The 2030 Senior Notes will

Table of Contents
mature on March 12, 2030 and bear a floating rate of interest of Term SOFR plus the Applicable Margin (as defined in the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture) based on the Secured Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture) payable on the last day of the applicable interest period in cash or, at the Company’s election, additional 2030 Senior Notes paid-in-kind on one-, three- or six-month interest periods, which shall include a 100 basis point premium for any period where interest is paid-in-kind. The 2030 Senior Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by each of the Company’s current domestic subsidiaries and by certain future subsidiaries, subject to agreed guaranty and security principles and certain exclusions.
The 2030 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Company’s current subsidiaries. The 2030 Senior Notes will also be guaranteed by each of the Company’s future subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s indebtedness or indebtedness of guarantors, including under the 2028 ABL Facility and such subsidiaries that become guarantors in the future will also pledge their collateral in support of such guarantees. These guarantees are senior secured obligations of the guarantors secured by a first priority security interest on substantially all of the guarantors’ assets (other than collateral securing the 2028 ABL Facility on a first priority basis) and a second priority security interest on the guarantors’ assets which secure the 2028 ABL Facility on a first priority basis, subject in each case to certain excluded assets.
The Company is required to redeem the 2030 Senior Notes in an amount equal to 2.00% per annum of all 2030 Senior Notes outstanding as of the prior applicable Interest Payment Date (as defined in the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture) on the last business day of each of March, June, September and December. Additionally, upon certain changes of control, consummation of certain asset sales and other events, the Company will be required to repurchase the 2030 Senior Notes at the applicable redemption prices.
The 2030 Senior Notes Indenture contains certain financial covenants that include (i) a maximum total net leverage ratio of not greater than 4.50 to 1.0 for the test periods ended March 31, 2025 through December 31, 2025, stepping down to 4.00 to 1.0 for the test periods ending March 31, 2026 through December 31, 2026, 3.50 to 1.0 for the test periods ending March 31, 2027 through December 31, 2027, 3.00 to 1.0 for the test periods ending March 31, 2028 through December 31, 2028, and 2.50 to 1.0 for each test period thereafter and (ii) restrictions on making net capital expenditures in any test period in excess of the greater of (x) $65.0 in the aggregate or (y) 7.00% of revenues during such test period.
The 2030 Senior Notes Indenture also restricts, among other things, the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness and liens, pay dividends or make other distributions, make certain other restricted payments or investments, sell assets, enter into restrictive agreements, enter into transactions with the Company’s affiliates, and merge or consolidate with other entities or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the Company’s properties and assets to another person, which, in each case, is subject to certain limitations and exceptions. The 2030 Senior Notes Indenture also contains customary events of default including, among other things, the failure to pay interest for three business days, failure to pay principal when due, failure to observe or perform any other covenants or agreement in the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture subject to grace periods, cross-acceleration to indebtedness with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $7.5, material impairment of liens, failure to pay certain material judgments and certain events of bankruptcy. The 2030 Senior Notes Indenture permits the Company to incur additional pari passu indebtedness of up to $150.0 within twelve months of the Refinancing (including for the purpose of consummating permitted acquisitions and investments) subject to the terms and conditions contained in the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture and contains certain other covenants, events of default and other customary provisions.
On March 6, 2026, the requisite Investors agreed to execute the First Amendment to the Indenture to provide financial covenant relief in the form of (i) extending the period for which the maximum total net leverage ratio covenant is tested at 4.50 to 1.0 through and including the testing period ending March 31, 2027, stepping down to 3.50 to 1.0 for the testing periods ending June 30, 2027 through and including March 31, 2028, to 3.00 to 1.0 for the testing periods ending June 30, 2028 through and including March 31, 2029, and to 2.50 to 1.0 for the testing periods ending June 30, 2029 and thereafter, (ii) a temporary holiday to exclude capital lease obligations as indebtedness for the purposes of determining compliance with the maximum total net leverage ratio covenant for the testing periods ending December 31, 2025 through and including March 31,

2027 and (iii) clarifying that proceeds from our ATM Offering program may be applied as an equity cure. The First Amendment to the Indenture also establishes additional debt and lien baskets to permit the issuance of letters of credit by third parties for the Company’s account in favor of insurers in connection with a $6.7 substitute insurance collateral facility. As of June 30, 2026, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the 2030 Senior Notes.
There is no certainty that the First Amendment to the Indenture will be sufficient to allow us to comply with our covenants under the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture or that we will be able to obtain future amendments in the event we are unable to comply with such covenants. For additional details, see “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Financial Considerations—The 2030 Senior Notes Indenture and the 2028 ABL Facility have significant financial and operating restrictions that may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. A failure to comply with the obligations contained in any such agreement governing our indebtedness could result in an event of default under such agreement, which could permit acceleration of the related debt, enforcement against any liens securing the related debt and acceleration of debt under other instruments that may contain cross acceleration or cross default provisions. We may not have, or may not be able to obtain, sufficient funds to make any required accelerated payments” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Also in connection with our entry into the First Amendment to the Indenture, we issued Warrants to our noteholders, based on their pro rata ownership of principal amount of the 2030 Senior Notes, providing for the purchase of up to 803,712 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, subject to adjustment, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
During the second quarter of 2026, the Company entered into debt-for-equity exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements” and each, an “Exchange Agreement”) with certain holders (the “Noteholders”) of the 2030 Senior Notes. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, the Noteholders exchanged $2.2 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s outstanding Notes for an aggregate of 627,521 shares of Common Stock.
As of June 30, 2026, the principal amount outstanding under the 2030 Senior Notes was $254.3. On a net basis, after taking into consideration unamortized debt issuance costs and issue discount for the 2030 Senior Notes, total debt related to the 2030 Senior Notes as of June 30, 2026 was $232.9. The effective interest rate under the 2030 Senior Notes was approximately 12.12% on June 30, 2026. Accrued interest related to the 2030 Senior Notes was $— as of June 30, 2026 and $— as of December 31, 2025.
In connection with the Rights Offering (as described above), substantially concurrently with the closing of the Backstop Exchange, the Company, the subsidiaries party thereto, as guarantors, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and notes collateral agent, will enter into the A&R Indenture (as defined above). The A&R Indenture will amend and restate in its entirety the 2030 Senior Notes Indenture. The 2030 Senior Notes will remain guaranteed and secured on substantially the same terms other than as described below. For additional information, see “Note 13 - Subsequent Events” above.
2025 Senior Notes
The previously-issued 2025 Senior Notes were redeemed on March 30, 2025 and the related indenture was satisfied and discharged in full.
ABL Facilities

Table of Contents
2028 ABL Facility
On March 7, 2025, the Company also entered into a Credit Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2025 (the “2028 ABL Facility”), with the Company, as borrower, Eclipse Business Capital LLC, as administrative agent, as collateral agent and as FILO administrative agent and the lenders party thereto. The 2028 ABL Facility is comprised of an asset-based revolving credit facility with a $125.0 commitment (the “Revolving Facility”), a first-in-last-out asset-based credit facility with a $10.0 commitment (the “FILO Facility”), and a committed incremental loan option under the Revolving Facility with a $25.0 commitment (the “Incremental Revolving Loans”).
The availability of the Incremental Revolving Loans are subject to usual and customary conditions to effectiveness, including, for example, the Company electing to utilize such Incremental Revolving Loans by a date certain and the payment of required fees. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility (including, to the extent incurred, the Incremental Revolving Loans) bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 4.625%. Borrowings under the FILO Facility bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 6.00%. The applicable margin under the Revolving Facility is subject to a 0.125% reduction and the applicable margin under the FILO Facility is subject to a 0.500% reduction, in each case upon the repayment in full of a $5.0 over-advance provided on the initial funding date under the Revolving Facility. The 2028 ABL Facility is secured by, among other things, a first priority lien on accounts receivable and inventory and contains customary conditions precedent to borrowing and affirmative and negative covenants.
The initial funding under the 2028 ABL Facility occurred on March 12, 2025, and the proceeds therefrom were used to repay the Prior ABL Facility in full. After giving effect to the foregoing, we had approximately $39.9 of available borrowing capacity under the 2028 ABL Facility. Our 2028 ABL Facility matures on March 7, 2028.
The 2028 ABL Facility includes a springing financial covenant which requires the Company’s consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio to be at least 1.0 to 1.0 if availability under the Revolving Facility falls below $7.0.
The 2028 ABL Facility includes financial, operating and negative covenants that limit our ability to incur indebtedness, to create liens or other encumbrances, to make certain payments and investments, including dividend payments, to engage in transactions with affiliates, to engage in sale/leaseback transactions, to guarantee indebtedness and to sell or otherwise dispose of assets and merge or consolidate with other entities. It also includes a covenant to deliver annual audited financial statements that are not qualified by a “going concern” or like qualification or exception. A failure to comply with the obligations contained in the 2028 ABL Facility could result in an event of default, which could permit acceleration of the debt, termination of undrawn commitments and enforcement against any liens securing the debt. The 2028 ABL Facility contains certain other covenants (including the ability to incur indebtedness for the purpose of consummating permitted acquisitions, subject to the terms of the 2028 ABL Facility), events of default and other customary provisions. As of June 30, 2026, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the 2028 ABL Facility.
As of June 30, 2026, the borrowings outstanding under the 2028 ABL Facility were $56.0. The effective interest rate under the 2028 ABL Facility was approximately 8.36% on June 30, 2026. Accrued interest related to the 2028 ABL Facility was $0.5 as of June 30, 2026 and $0.4 as of December 31, 2025.
Indemnities, Commitments and Guarantees
In the normal course of our business, we make certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which we may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility or lease and indemnities to other parties to certain acquisition agreements. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies and, in certain cases, is indefinite. Many of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees provide for limitations on the maximum potential future payments we could be obligated to make. However, we are unable to estimate the maximum amount of liability related to our
36
Table of Contents
indemnities, commitments and guarantees because such liabilities are contingent upon the occurrence of events that are not reasonably determinable. Our management believes that any liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees would not be material to our financial statements. Accordingly, no significant amounts have been accrued for indemnities, commitments and guarantees.
We have employment agreements with certain key members of management expiring on various dates. Our employment agreements generally provide for certain protections in the event of a change of control. These protections generally include the payment of severance and related benefits under certain circumstances in the event of a change in control.
Capital Expenditures
Our capital expenditures were $17.3 during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $27.7 in the six months ended June 30, 2025. We offset $5.6 of capital spending during the six months ended June 30, 2026 with the same amount of proceeds from asset sales. Based on current industry conditions and our significant investments in capital expenditures over the past several years, we expect to incur approximately $40.0 in total capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2026. The nature of our capital expenditures is comprised of a base level of investment required to support our current operations and amounts related to growth and Company initiatives. Capital expenditures for growth and Company initiatives are discretionary. We continually evaluate our capital expenditures, and the amount we ultimately spend will depend on a number of factors, including expected industry activity levels and Company initiatives.
Equity Distribution Agreement
On June 14, 2021, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Piper Sandler & Co. as sales agent (the “Agent”). Pursuant to the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company may sell from time to time through the Agent (the “ATM Offering”) the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0. On November 16, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Equity Distribution Agreement, which, among other things, allows for debt-for-equity exchanges in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. On March 14, 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Equity Distribution Agreement (the “EDA Amendment”), which, among other things, increased the aggregate offering price to up to approximately $57.75 (which amount includes all of the Common Stock previously sold pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement prior to the EDA Amendment) and provides for the Company's election not to deliver a placement notice. Under the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company will pay the Agent a commission equal to 3.0% of the gross sales price of the Common Stock sold.
Common Stock offered and sold in the ATM Offering was issued pursuant to the Registration Statement, the prospectus supplement relating to the ATM Offering filed with the SEC on March 14, 2025 and any applicable additional prospectus supplements related to the ATM Offering that formed a part of the Registration Statement. Sales of Common Stock under the Equity Distribution Agreement were made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Registration Statement expired on April 19, 2026 pursuant to Rule 415(a)(5) under the Securities Act. Sales under the ATM Offering program may restart when and if the Company files a prospectus supplement under a successor registration statement.
The Company has used and plans to use the net proceeds from the ATM Offering, after deducting the Agent’s commissions and the Company’s offering expenses, for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, paying or refinancing all or a portion of the Company’s then-outstanding indebtedness, and funding acquisitions, capital expenditures and working capital.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not sell any shares of Common Stock and incurred legal and administrative fees of $0.2 and $0.2, respectively.

Table of Contents
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold 25,000 and 167,769 shares of Common Stock, respectively, in exchange for gross proceeds of approximately $0.1 and $0.6, respectively, and incurred legal and administrative fees of $0.1 and $0.1, respectively.

Cash Flows
Our cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were approximately $10.8 as compared to approximately $18.5 used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Our operating cash flows are sensitive to many variables, the most significant of which are utilization and profitability, the timing of billing and customer collections, payments to our vendors, repair and maintenance costs and personnel, any of which may affect our available cash. Additionally, should our customers experience financial distress for any reason, they could default on their payments owed to us, which would affect our cash flows and liquidity.
At June 30, 2026, we had $7.9 of cash and cash equivalents. Cash on hand at June 30, 2026 increased by $2.2, as a result of $10.8 of cash flows provided by operating activities, $25.2 of cash flows used in investing activities and $16.6 provided by financing activities. Our liquidity requirements consist of working capital needs, debt service obligations and ongoing capital expenditure requirements. Our primary requirements for working capital are directly related to the activity level of our operations.
The following table sets forth our cash flows for the periods presented below:
Six Months Ended
June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, beginning of period $ 5.7 $ 91.6
Net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities 10.8 (18.5)
Net cash flows used in investing activities (25.2) (21.3)
Net cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities 16.6 (34.5)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash 2.2 (74.3)
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance end of period $ 7.9 $ 17.3
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $10.8 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $18.5 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The positive operating cash flows were attributable to improvements in working capital requirements in the current year.
Net cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $25.2 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $21.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Outside of the cash paid for the Wolf Pack Acquisition, the cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily driven by maintenance capital spending tied to the operation of our existing asset base offset by sales of property and equipment.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $16.6 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $34.5 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. We refinanced both our 2025 Senior Notes and Prior ABL Facility during the six months ended June 30, 2025, which brought additional cash outlays in the prior year.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
39
Table of Contents
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is a reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been used. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our financial statements. Other than the critical accounting policy included below, we believe that our critical accounting policies are limited to those described in the Critical Accounting Estimates section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026.
Business Combinations
We completed the Wolf Pack Acquisition on June 2, 2026. Wolf Pack’s results of operations have been included in our financial results for the period subsequent to the acquisition date.
Under the acquisition method of accounting, we allocate the fair value of purchase consideration transferred to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired, if any, and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the date of the acquisition. The fair values assigned, defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants, are based on estimates and assumptions determined by management. The estimated fair value of the assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, exceeds the purchase consideration, resulting in a bargain purchase gain.
When determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we make significant estimates and assumptions. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.
During the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to bargain purchase gain if new information is obtained related to facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. After the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition costs, such as legal and consulting fees, are expensed as incurred.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We continue to evaluate any recently issued accounting pronouncements for future adoption.
How We Evaluate Our Operations
Key Financial Performance Indicators
We recognize the highly cyclical nature of our business and the need for metrics to (1) best measure the trends in our operations and (2) provide baselines and targets to assess the performance of our managers.
The measures we believe most effective to achieve the above stated goals include:
•Revenue
•Operating income
•Adjusted Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”): 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
40
Table of Contents
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.
•Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, as a percentage of revenue.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to supplement the GAAP measures in order to 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 (Loss) because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods, 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 (loss) earnings 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.
