Total Energy’s results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023 reflect continued stable industry conditions. North American market share gains resulting from equipment upgrades and modestly improved pricing contributed to improved fourth quarter results in 2023 as compared to 2022. Fourth quarter Australian revenue was lower compared to the prior year due to lower service rig activity. $16.2 million of non-recurring income tax expense and $10.6 million of related interest and penalties were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023 as a result of a Tax Court of Canada ruling upholding Canada Revenue Agency reassessments related to the Company’s 2009 income trust conversion. Despite the $26.8 million reduction in net income resulting from this reassessment, Total Energy achieved record consolidated financial results for 2023.

|
|
CDS segment revenue during the fourth quarter of 2023 was higher compared with the previous year quarter due to increased revenue per operating day arising from the deployment of upgraded equipment. Negatively impacting utilization in the United States was the transfer of a triple drilling rig to Canada during the second quarter of 2023 and a general slowdown in industry activity, which was partially offset by higher pricing due in part to the mix of equipment operating. Higher utilization following the return to service of an upgraded drilling rig combined with higher revenue per operating day due to rate increases arising from rig upgrades and fewer standby days due to wet weather in 2023 compared to 2022 contributed to improved year over year fourth quarter results in Australia.

|
Fourth quarter revenue in the RTS segment decreased marginally as compared to the same period in 2022 due to the deferral of certain projects in Canada that was partially offset by market share gains in the United States. Higher year over year fourth quarter EBITDA and EBITDA margin was due to improved revenue per utilized piece of equipment. A significant number of underutilized rental pieces were disposed of in Canada during 2023.

Rental equipment utilization is measured on a horsepower basis. |
|
|
The year over year increase in the CPS segment’s fourth quarter revenue was due primarily to higher United States fabrication sales, increased equipment overhaul activity and improved utilization of the Canadian compression rental fleet. EBITDA and EBITDA margin increased due to improved fabrication sales margins and a greater relative revenue contribution from the higher margin parts and service business. The fabrication sales backlog decreased to $162.8 million compared to the $219.5 million backlog at December 31, 2022. Sequentially, the quarter end backlog increased by $9.9 million from September 30, 2023.

The Company reports its service rig utilization for its operational service rigs in North America based on service hours of 3,650 per rig per year to reflect standard 10 hour operations per day. Utilization for the Company’s service rigs in Australia is calculated based on service hours of 8,760 per rig per year to reflect standard 24 hour operations. |

Fourth quarter Canadian activity in the WS segment was negatively impacted by reduced well abandonment activity following the conclusion of government incentive programs. Segment EBITDA for the fourth quarter decreased as compared to 2022 due to lower activity in all jurisdictions and competitive North American pricing that was partially offset by increased pricing in Australia.
Corporate
During the fourth quarter of 2023, Total Energy remained focused on the safe and efficient operation of its business and the execution of its 2023 capital expenditure program in preparation for the upcoming North American winter drilling season. $75.2 million of capital expenditures were made to December 31, 2023, with $14.2 million of 2023 capital expenditure commitments carried forward into 2024.
Total Energy exited the fourth quarter of 2023 with $123.4 million of positive working capital, including $47.9 million of cash, and $125 million of available credit under its $175 million of revolving bank credit facilities. The weighted average interest rate on the Company’s outstanding debt at December 31, 2023 was 5.25%.
Outlook
Industry conditions remain relatively stable. Oil and natural gas producers continue to be measured in their drilling and completion programs as they pursue acquisition opportunities and execute shareholder return strategies. While recent North American natural gas spot market price weakness may adversely impact near term natural gas drilling activity, the pending completion of several LNG export facilities is expected to provide relief to the North American natural gas market.
Total Energy’s previously announced 2024 preliminary capital expenditure budget of $46.5 million includes $22.4 million of growth capital. Included in 2024 growth capital is the recertification and upgrade of three Australian service rigs that are being reactivated under long term contracts. The first rig was completed and commenced operations in late February and the remaining two rigs are expected to be completed and commence operations during the second and third quarters of 2024, respectively. Included in 2023 capital expenditure commitments carried into 2024 is the completion of an Australian drilling rig that is expected to commence operations in July 2024 under a long term contract as well as several natural gas compression rental units being constructed for deployment in the United States under long term contracts.
Total Energy’s wholly owned subsidiary, Savanna Energy Services Australia Pty Ltd. (“Savanna Australia”) today completed the acquisition of Saxon Energy Services Australia Pty Ltd. (“Saxon”). US $34.8 million cash was paid at closing, with an additional US $2.0 million less any applicable post-closing deductions to be paid on the first anniversary of closing. Concurrent with the acquisition of Saxon, Muhammad Yasir Nisar was appointed Assistant Vice President, Drilling Services of Total Energy.
Dividend Increase
The Board of Directors of Total Energy has declared a dividend of $0.09 per common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, a 13% increase from the fourth quarter 2023 dividend. The dividend is payable on April 15, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 29, 2024. The ex-dividend date is March 28, 2024. Unless otherwise indicated, all dividends declared by the Company are “eligible dividends” within the meaning of subsection 89(1) of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

Notes to the Financial Highlights
| (1) |
EBITDA means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and is equal to net income (loss) before income taxes plus finance costs plus depreciation. EBITDA is not a recognized measure under IFRS. Management believes that in addition to net income (loss), EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure as it provides an indication of the results generated by the Company’s primary business activities prior to consideration of how those activities are financed, amortized or how the results are taxed in various jurisdictions as well as the cash generated by the Company’s primary business activities without consideration of the timing of the monetization of non-cash working capital items. Readers should be cautioned, however, that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of Total Energy’s performance. Total Energy’s method of calculating EBITDA may differ from other organizations and, accordingly, EBITDA may not be comparable to measures used by other organizations. |

Working capital equals current assets minus current liabilities. |
|
|
| (3) |
Net Debt equals long-term debt plus lease liabilities plus current liabilities minus current assets. Management believes this measure provides a useful indication of the Company’s liquidity. |

Basic and diluted shares outstanding reflect the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the periods. See note 15 to the Company’s 2023 Consolidated Financial Statements. |
