Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On August 6, 2020, Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. A copy of the release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 99.1 to this report contains “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The non-GAAP financial measures reflect earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense (“EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share (“Adjusted Diluted EPS”), book to bill ratio and free cash flow, before acquisitions (“free cash flow”). A reconciliation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, book to bill ratio and free cash flow to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”) is included as an attachment to the press release. The Company believes the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, book to bill ratio and free cash flow are useful to the Company's investors because (i) each of these financial metrics are useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the Company's normal operating results and (ii) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the Company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, these benchmarks are widely used in the investment community.
The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The information contained in this Current Report shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Forum Energy Technologies Announces
Second Quarter 2020 Results
Revenue of $113 million
Net loss of $(5) million and diluted EPS of $(0.05)
Adjusted EBITDA of $(11.6) million
Cash flow from operations of $(3.6) million and free cash flow after capital expenditures of $(3.5) million
HOUSTON, TEXAS, August 6, 2020 - Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FET) today announced second quarter 2020 revenue of $113 million, a decrease of $69 million from the first quarter 2020. Net loss for the quarter was $5 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $37 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2020. Excluding $27 million, or $0.24 per share of special items, adjusted net loss was $0.29 per diluted share in the second quarter 2020, compared to an adjusted net loss of $0.20 per diluted share in the first quarter 2020. Adjusted EBITDA was $(11.6) million in the second quarter 2020, a decrease of approximately $16.1 million from the first quarter 2020.
Special items in the second quarter 2020, on a pre-tax basis, included a $36 million gain on extinguishment of debt, repurchased by the company at a substantial discount, partially offset by $4 million of restructuring and other charges, $4 million of inventory and other impairments and $1 million of foreign exchange losses. See Tables 1-3 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
Cris Gaut, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, “The dislocation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting collapse in energy demand has been dramatic. With little ongoing work for drilling and completions services, customer spending has been exceptionally weak, impacting demand for many of Forum’s products.
“In response to these challenges, our management team moved swiftly to restructure the company to weather the storm. Early in the second quarter, we completed significant structural cost reductions, which represent a step change in the rate of continuous cost actions undertaken since the downturn began in 2014. Our results reflect the impact of removing approximately $100 million of cost on an annualized basis in the second quarter 2020 compared to the immediately preceding quarter. On a year-over-year basis, the cost reductions on an annualized basis are close to $150 million. This swift and significant action allowed Forum to significantly offset lower sales volume and pricing limiting our decremental margins to 23%

1


compared to the first quarter. We now have a much leaner cost structure to weather the downturn and benefit from any incremental activity increases.
“Earlier this week, Forum successfully closed the exchange offer for our outstanding notes. This transaction extends our maturity to 2025 and maintains our current cash interest cost. In addition, the new notes preserve equity value for our current shareholders and provide a deleveraging opportunity through a partial, mandatory conversion to equity at a significant premium to the current stock price. Forum now has ample runway to take advantage of the opportunities a market recovery will present.”
Segment Results
Drilling & Downhole segment revenue was $47 million, a decrease of $29 million, or 38%, from the first quarter 2020, due to lower sales of drilling and downhole products in North America, resulting from the significant slowdown in drilling and completions activity. Orders in the second quarter were $42 million, a 40% decrease from the first quarter, primarily due to lower orders for downhole and drilling consumable short cycle products. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $(3) million, down $10 million from the first quarter, resulting primarily from the significant decline in revenues partially offset by cost reduction actions taken in the second quarter. Drilling & Downhole operations focus primarily on capital equipment and consumable products for global drilling, well construction, artificial lift and subsea markets.
Completions segment revenue was $18 million, a sequential decrease of $33 million, or 65%, due to the severe slowdown in well completions activity and cannibalization of equipment by our service company customers. Orders in the second quarter were $14 million, a decrease of $36 million, or 72%, from the first quarter 2020. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $(6) million, down $10 million from the first quarter, as a result of the loss of operating leverage on lower sales volumes partially offset by significant cost reductions implemented in the second quarter. The Completions segment designs and manufactures products for the coiled tubing, stimulation and intervention markets.
Production segment revenue was $49 million, a decrease of $7 million, or 13% from the first quarter 2020, due to lower sales for our Valve Solutions product line. Orders in the second quarter were $29 million, a 43% decrease sequentially, due to lower orders for surface production equipment as operators slowed their completions activity and fewer bookings from our valve distribution customers due to their ongoing inventory destocking. Segment adjusted EBITDA was $2.1 million, an increase of $2 million sequentially, as a result of cost reductions from restructuring actions implemented in the second quarter. The Production segment manufactures land well site production equipment, desalination process equipment, and a wide range of valves for upstream, midstream and process industry customers.

(1) The book-to-bill ratio is calculated by dividing the dollar value of orders received in a given period by the revenue earned in that same period.  The Company believes that this ratio is useful to investors because it provides an indication of whether the demand for our products, in the markets in which the Company operates, is strengthening or declining.  A ratio of greater than one is indicative of improving market demand, while a ratio of less than one would suggest weakening demand.  In addition, the Company believes the book-to-bill ratio provides more meaningful insight into future revenues for our business than other measures, such as order backlog, because the majority of the Company's products are activity based consumable items or shorter cycle capital equipment, neither of which are typically ordered by customers far in advance.

(1) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS are useful to the Company's investors because (i) each of these financial metrics are useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the Company's normal operating results and (ii) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the Company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, these benchmarks are widely used in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
(2) The difference between the fair value of our interest in Ashtead and the book value of the underlying net assets resulted in a basis difference non-operating gain, which was allocated to fixed assets, intangible assets and goodwill based on their respective fair values as of the transaction date. This amount represents the amortization of the basis difference gain associated with intangible assets and property, plant and equipment which is included in equity earnings (loss) over the estimated life of the respective assets.
(3) Foreign exchange, net primarily relates to cash and receivables denominated in U.S. dollars by some of our non-U.S. subsidiaries that report in a local currency, and therefore the loss has no economic impact in dollar terms.
