Key Points

Positve
  • Expro Group Holdings NV (XPRO) reported a strong Q2 2024 with revenue of $470 million and adjusted EBITDA of $95 million, both exceeding guidance.
  • The company saw a sequential revenue increase of 22% and a year-over-year increase of 18%, driven by increased activity across all regions and product lines.
  • Expro Group Holdings NV (XPRO) successfully closed the acquisition of CoreTrax earlier than expected, contributing positively to revenue and EBITDA.
  • The company has a healthy backlog of approximately $2.2 billion, indicating strong future revenue potential.
  • Expro Group Holdings NV (XPRO) raised its full-year 2024 guidance, expecting revenue between $1.7 billion and $1.75 billion and adjusted EBITDA between $350 million and $375 million.
Negative
  • The ESSA segment's EBITDA margin was flat sequentially and down approximately 4 percentage points year-over-year due to lower margins on the Congo Production Solutions project.
  • Q3 2024 revenue is expected to decline sequentially by approximately 10%, reflecting the transition of the Congo project to the operations and maintenance phase and the timing of subsea well access projects.
  • Net income for Q2 2024 was $15 million, which, although an improvement, still indicates room for growth in profitability.
  • Adjusted cash flow from operations was only $6 million in Q2 2024, significantly lower than the $36 million in Q2 2023, primarily due to an increase in net working capital.
  • The company faces challenges in maintaining high EBITDA margins in the Asia Pacific region, which has historically underperformed compared to other regions.
