Newpark Resources Reports Net Income Of $0.17 Per Diluted Share For The Second Quarter 2013

Newpark Resources Reports Net Income Of $0.17 Per Diluted Share For The Second Quarter 2013

THE WOODLANDS, Texas, July 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Newpark Resources, Inc. (NYSE: NR) today announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2013.  Total revenues for the second quarter of 2013 increased 13% to $276.6 million compared to $245.8 million in the second quarter of 2012.  Net income for the second quarter of 2013 increased 8% to $15.7 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared to $14.5 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2012.

The second quarter 2013 results include a pre-tax charge of approximately $1.8 million in Brazil ($0.02 per diluted share) associated with adjustments to previously estimated margins on unbilled sales to Petrobras.  In addition, the second quarter 2013 results include a $1.1 million operating loss from our U.S. completion services and equipment rental business.

Paul Howes, Newpark's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are pleased with the revenue growth in our drilling fluids segment, which rose 16% on a worldwide basis compared to last year's second quarter.  North American revenues increased approximately 8% from a year ago but were down 9% sequentially due to Spring break-up in Canada.  International revenues grew 38% from a year ago and 4% sequentially, largely driven by strength in our EMEA region.  Margins in our U.S. drilling fluids business continued to strengthen in the quarter. For the segment, however, our margins were negatively impacted by the charge in Brazil, a challenging Spring break-up in Canada, and continued weakness in our completion services business.  Despite our ongoing efforts to rationalize the cost structure of the completion services business unit, we are evaluating strategic alternatives for this business.     

"In our mats segment, we are particularly pleased by the strengthening rental activity as we prepare for anticipated demand for our spill containment system.  Rental revenues increased 14% from a year ago and 22% sequentially, while mat sales were down from the prior year but improved 28% sequentially.  As we discussed previously, we remain focused on the strategic expansion of our rental fleet, which is limiting mat sales activity.  In the meantime, while we have initiated the sale process for our Environmental Services business, this segment continued to post strong operating results, benefiting from the strength in the Gulf of Mexico," concluded Howes.

SEGMENT RESULTS
The Fluids Systems and Engineering segment generated revenues of $234.0 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $202.4 million in the second quarter of 2012, a 15.6% increase.  Segment operating income was $17.7 million (7.6% operating margin) in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $13.5 million (6.7% operating margin) in the second quarter of 2012.

The Mats and Integrated Services segment generated revenues of $25.4 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $30.1 million in the second quarter of 2012, a 15.5% decrease.  Segment operating income was $10.3 million (40.7% operating margin) in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $13.1 million (43.5% operating margin) in the second quarter of 2012. 

The Environmental Services segment generated revenues of $17.2 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $13.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, a 29.7% increase.  Segment operating income was $5.3 million (30.9% operating margin) in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $3.5 million (26.4% operating margin) in the second quarter of 2012.
