We have not provided reconciliations of our future expectations as to Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA margin as such reconciliations are not available without unreasonable efforts.

Chris Baker, KLX President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "KLX delivered a very strong finish to 2025. The fourth quarter was our most profitable of the year, and both Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin were at their 2025 highs, driven by a more muted fourth quarter revenue decline, typical year-end accrual unwinds and incremental revenue in our natural gas portfolio. Throughout 2025, we continued to optimize our corporate cost structure and thoughtfully invested in our product lines, while leaning into gas-weighted asset allocation as we realigned certain PSLs and benefited from capacity rationalization in the industry.

"Our focus on cost discipline, strategic capital deployment and the preservation of our talented workforce, allowed us to grow earnings in the back half of the year in spite of persistent commodity price volatility and softer activity in certain basins. Operationally, the Northeast/Mid-Con segment was the standout in the quarter. Despite typical winter weather and year-end budget dynamics, that segment held revenue essentially flat sequentially and again expanded margins, driven by robust demand in our gas-directed work. Our dry gas exposure continued to grow as a share of the portfolio, and gas-levered revenue has steadily been marching back toward prior cycle peaks.

"We expect the first quarter to be impacted by seasonality and winter storm Fern, which led to the loss of approximately four to five working days in many districts. However, as the year progresses, we should return to the stronger run-rate we delivered in the second half of 2025," concluded Baker.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $156.8 million, a decrease of 5.9% compared to third quarter revenue of $166.7 million. The decrease in revenue reflects a decrease in activity in addition to the expected seasonal decline in the fourth quarter. On a product line basis, drilling, completion, production and intervention services contributed approximately 18%, 58%, 16% and 8%, respectively, to revenues for the fourth quarter 2025.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $(15.0) million, compared to fourth quarter of 2024 net loss of $(14.7) million. Adjusted net loss for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $(14.5) million, compared to fourth quarter of 2024 adjusted net loss of $(13.1) million. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $22.5 million, compared to fourth quarter of 2024 Adjusted EBITDA of $22.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the fourth quarter of 2025 was 14.3%, compared to fourth quarter of 2024 Adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.7%.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Segment Results

The Company reports revenue, operating income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA through three geographic business segments: Rocky Mountains, Southwest and Northeast/Mid-Con. The Company reports operating activities not attributable to an individual geographic business segment as Corporate and other. Segment results are reported after inter-segment eliminations.

• Rocky Mountains: Revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the Rocky Mountains segment was $46.3 million, $0.8 million and $6.9 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2025. Fourth quarter revenue represents a 8.9% decrease over the third quarter of 2025 largely due to winter holiday seasonality and budget exhaustion, which affected all of our regional completion and intervention offerings, including coiled tubing, frac rentals and tech services. Segment operating income and Adjusted EBITDA decreased 55.6% and 14.8%, respectively, as a function of the seasonal decrease in activity, which is expected to correct as we exit the first quarter of 2026.
• Southwest: Revenue, operating loss and Adjusted EBITDA for the Southwest segment, which includes the Permian and South Texas, was $50.9 million, $(1.6) million and $6.8 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2025. Fourth quarter revenue represents a 10.1% decrease over the third quarter of 2025 largely due to annual seasonality due to budget exhaustion and winter holiday breaks, which affected most product service lines in the region, including frac rental, tech services and coiled tubing. Segment operating loss and Adjusted EBITDA improved 52.9% and 33.3%, respectively, due largely to a shift in revenue mix and reduced overhead, including headcount and vehicle fleet.
• Northeast/Mid-Con: Revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the Northeast/Mid-Con segment was $59.6 million, $6.5 million and $15.1 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2025. Fourth quarter revenue represents a 0.5% increase over the third quarter of 2025 driven by increased activity in the Northeast, offset by a seasonal decrease in coiled tubing and frac rental. Segment operating income decreased 1.5% and Adjusted EBITDA increased 4.1%, as a result of slightly higher one-time costs and depreciation and amortization.
• Corporate and other: Operating loss and Adjusted EBITDA loss for Corporate and other were $(7.9) million and $(6.3) million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2025. Segment operating loss and Adjusted EBITDA loss remained largely in line with prior quarter.

The following is a tabular summary of revenue, operating income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, the third quarter ended September 30, 2025 and the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024 ($ in millions).

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Total debt outstanding as of December 31, 2025 was $258.3 million. As of December 31, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled $5.7 million. Available liquidity as of December 31, 2025 was $56.3 million, including availability of $50.6 million on the December 2025 asset-based revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility") borrowing base certificate. The senior secured notes (the "2030 Senior Notes") bear interest at a variable annual rate, which as of December 31, 2025 was approximately 12.3%. Accrued interest as of December 31, 2025 was $0.0 million for the 2030 Senior Notes and $0.4 million related to the ABL Facility.

Net working capital as of December 31, 2025 was $49.5 million, a 93% increase from December 31, 2024, driven by a decrease in days payable outstanding and an increase in days sales outstanding.

Other Financial Information

Capital expenditures were $9.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2025. Fourth quarter capital expenditures decreased by $2.6 million or 21.7% compared to capital expenditures of $12.0 million in the third quarter of 2025. Capital spending during the fourth quarter was driven primarily by maintenance capital expenditures across our segments.

Indenture Amendment and Issuance of Warrants

On March 6, 2026, we entered into an amendment (the "First Amendment to the Indenture") to the indenture dated March 12, 2025 relating to our 2030 Senior Notes, to provide financial covenant relief, including (i) extending and resetting the step-down schedule for the maximum total net leverage ratio covenant, (ii) a temporary holiday to exclude capital lease obligations from the leverage ratio calculation for certain testing periods, and (iii) clarifying that proceeds from our at-the-market offering program may be applied as an equity cure. In connection with the entry into the First Amendment to the Indenture, on March 6, 2026 and March 11, 2026, we issued to our noteholders, based on their pro rata ownership of principal amount of the 2030 Senior Notes, warrants to purchase, in aggregate, up to 803,712 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, subject to adjustment (the "Warrants"). The Warrants expire five years from their respective date of issuance. Other than the issuance date and the expiration date, the terms of the Warrants are consistent with the warrants issued in March 2025 in connection with our issuance of the 2030 Senior Notes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted Diluted Loss per share, Unlevered and Levered Free Cash Flow, Net Working Capital, Net Debt, Consolidated Net Loss Margin and Segment Operating Income (Loss) Margin 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) 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 the ongoing performance of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is used to calculate the Company's leverage ratio, consistent with the terms of the Company's ABL Facility.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is 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 EBITDA margin 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 margin is not a measure of net earnings or cash flows as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as the quotient of Adjusted EBITDA and total revenue. We believe Adjusted EBITDA margin is 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, as a percentage of revenues.

We define Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) as operating income (loss) adjusted for (i) long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) restructuring charges, (iii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and (iv) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business. We believe Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) is useful because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance.

We define Adjusted Net Loss as consolidated net loss adjusted for (i) long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) restructuring charges, (iii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and (iv) 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 Loss is useful because it allows us to exclude non-recurring items in evaluating our operating performance.

We define Adjusted Diluted Loss per share as the quotient of adjusted net loss and diluted weighted average common shares. We believe that Adjusted Diluted 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.

We define Unlevered Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and proceeds from sale of property and equipment and other proceeds plus cash interest expense. We define Levered Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and proceeds from sale of property and equipment and other proceeds. Our management uses Unlevered and Levered Free Cash Flow to assess the Company's liquidity and ability to repay maturing debt, fund operations and make additional investments. We believe that each of Unlevered and Levered Free Cash Flow provide useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's liquidity, including our ability to reduce Net Debt and make strategic investments.

Net Working Capital is calculated as current assets, excluding cash, less current liabilities, excluding accrued interest, current portion of long-term debt, operating lease obligations and finance lease obligations. We believe that Net Working Capital provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's liquidity.

We define Net Debt as total debt less cash and cash equivalents. We believe that Net Debt provides useful information to investors because it is an important indicator of the Company's indebtedness.

We define Consolidated net loss margin as the quotient of consolidated net loss and total revenue. We define Segment operating income (loss) margin as the quotient of segment operating income (loss) and segment revenue. We believe that Consolidated net loss margin and Segment operating income (loss) margin provide useful information to investors to understand and evaluate core operating performance and trends across fiscal periods.

The following tables present a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated:
