Analysis of Third Quarter 2015 Results
Stuart M. Brightman, TETRA's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our third quarter results were exceptional, following a very strong second quarter, but in an increasingly more challenging market environment. I attribute these results to the continued diversification of our customer base, the introduction of new products into the market, as well as additional actions taken across the organization to react to market conditions.
"Revenues in our Fluids Division for the third quarter of 2015 increased $5.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2014. Adjusted pretax margins for the Division improved $17.0 million versus the third quarter of 2014. These third quarter results are similar to the results of the Division's second quarter of this year. The number of significant completion fluids-related projects in the third quarter was a major driver of the Division's outstanding results, and we also saw continued strength in our manufacturing operations, as well as the Division's international operations. During the quarter, our Gulf of Mexico completion fluids business continued to benefit significantly from the introduction of new products, as well as the acceleration in timing of several projects. Overall, this was a record quarter for the Division in both revenues and profits.
"Excluding the impact of an adjustment for bad debts of $2 million, and VAT charges of $0.9 million in Brazil, our Production Testing Division's third quarter 2015 pretax earnings were a slight loss. Going forward, we expect the challenging market for Production Testing in the U.S. to continue, and we are continuing to expand our customer base and take the necessary cost actions to minimize the impact.
"For the third quarter of 2015 our Compression Division reported adjusted pretax earnings of $2.1 million, a decrease from the $6.6 million of adjusted pretax earnings reported in the third quarter of 2014. Utilization for compression services trended down during the third quarter, reflecting lower oil and gas wellhead-related activity mainly in lower horsepower applications. On October 20, 2015, CSI Compressco LP declared a distribution of $0.5025 per unit attributable to the third quarter, an increase of 9.2% over the third quarter 2014 distribution.
"Our Offshore Services segment reported adjusted pretax earnings of $5.1 million for the third quarter of 2015. This compares favorably to adjusted earnings of $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2014. In the very challenging offshore Gulf of Mexico market environment, our ability to achieve profitability in the third quarter was almost exclusively driven by the impact of ongoing cost reductions.
"During the third quarter TETRA, excluding the operations of CSI Compressco, had $30.2 million of free cash flow, which includes distributions from CSI Compressco but excludes $0.8 million spent on Maritech asset retirement obligations (see schedule G for a reconciliation to GAAP cash from operations). This result was driven by our cash earnings, as well as minimal capital expenditures during the third quarter of 2015. The third quarter represents our fourth consecutive quarter of improved leverage ratios."
Divisional revenues, adjusted pretax earnings/(loss), adjusted pretax margins, and adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014 are summarized in the table below:

Maritech reported a pre-tax loss of $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2015.

Future Financial Guidance
Total 2015 free cash flow for TETRA (excluding CSI Compressco but including CSI Compressco distributions) is expected to be in excess of $80.0 million(1), or $1.00 per share, reflecting the Company's focus on managing working capital, reducing costs, and generating revenue from a broad, diversified customer base. We are expecting GAAP earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2016 to each be a slight loss, reflecting our normal seasonal slowdown in activity and an expected early year-end curtailment of activity by our customers. However, we expect the Gulf of Mexico projects we benefited from in the second and third quarters of this year to resume in the second quarter of 2016.

Generally, the use of words such as "may," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "projects," "anticipate," "believe," "assume," "could," "should," "plans," "targets" or similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events, activities, expectations or outcomes identify forward-looking statements that the Company intends to be included within the safe harbor protections provided by the federal securities laws.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, this press release includes the following non-GAAP financial measures for the Company: net debt, consolidated and segment income before taxes, excluding the Maritech segment and unusual charges; Adjusted EBITDA; and free cash flow. The following schedules provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, as more fully discussed in the Company's financial statements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Management believes that following the sale of essentially all of Maritech's oil and gas properties, it is helpful to show the Company's results excluding the impact of the costs and charges relating to the decommissioning of Maritech's remaining properties since these results will show the Company's historical results of operations on a basis consistent with expected future operations. Management also believes that the exclusion of the unusual charges from the historical results of operations enables management to evaluate more effectively the Company's operations over the prior periods and to identify operating trends that could be obscured by the excluded items.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as the Company's adjusted income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and equity compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as a supplemental financial measure to assess the financial performance of the Company's assets, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis and to assess the Company's ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures.
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure that the Company defines as cash from operations, excluding cash settlements of Maritech ARO, less capital expenditures. Management uses this supplemental financial measure to:
- assess the Company's ability to retire debt;
- evaluate the capacity of the Company to further invest and grow; and
- to measure the performance of the Company as compared to its peer group of companies.
