*The Company presents its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). However, management believes that using additional non-GAAP measures will enhance the evaluation of the profitability of the Company and its ongoing operations. Please see Tables 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 below for reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

Sherif Foda, Chairman of the Board and CEO of NESR said, "We are very proud of our field personnel's ability to outperform themselves and deliver another solid quarter, growing both the top and bottom lines, despite the pandemic and economic turmoil experienced around the globe. As the National Champion of MENA, we benefitted from the resilience of our customers and their long-term view. At a time of crisis, differentiation really matters and we believe our talented national teams get the top ranking in everything we do."

Mr. Foda continued, "Separately, we took control of Sahara Petroleum Services Company S.A.E. (SAPESCO) toward the end of the quarter, expanding our footprint and strengthening our presence in North Africa. SAPESCO adds significant talent to our solid base of best-in-class operations, further enabling our ambitious growth plans for the near future."

Net Income Results

The Company had net income for the second quarter of 2020 totaling $10.5 million. Net income for the second quarter of 2020, first quarter of 2020, and second quarter of 2019, includes amortization expenses of approximately $3.8 million, per quarter, associated with intangible assets acquired primarily in the 2018 acquisitions of our two initial operating subsidiaries, NPS Holdings Limited and Gulf Energy S.A.O.C. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2020 is $12.3 million and includes adjustments totaling $1.8 million (collectively, "Total Charges and Credits") mainly related to nonrecurring transaction costs associated with the acquisition of SAPESCO in Egypt. A complete list of the adjusting items and the associated reconciliation from GAAP has been provided in Table 1 below in the section entitled "Reconciliation of Net Income and Adjusted Net Income."

The Company reported $0.12 of diluted earnings per share ("EPS") for the second quarter of 2020. Adjusted for the impact of Total Charges and Credits, Adjusted Diluted EPS, a non-GAAP measure described in Table 1 below, for the second quarter of 2020 is $0.14.

Adjusted EBITDA Results

The Company produced Adjusted EBITDA of $51.8 million during the second quarter of 2020, growing 13% as compared to $45.7 million in the second quarter of 2019, and improving 2% as compared to $50.9 million in the first quarter of 2020. Second quarter 2020 Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments for certain Total Charges and Credits (those not related to interest, taxes, and/or depreciation and amortization) of $1.8 million. The Company posted the following results for the periods presented.

Production Services Segment Results

The Production Services segment contributed $139.0 million to consolidated revenue for the second quarter of 2020, an improvement of 46% from $95.4 million in the second quarter of 2019 and 4% from $133.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. Segment Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased to $40.5 million from $34.1 million in the second quarter of 2019, an improvement of 19%, and flat when compared to the first quarter of 2020. Segment Adjusted EBITDA margins declined 151 basis points as compared to the first quarter of 2020 mainly due to the inclusion of startup costs, associated with the second hydraulic fracturing fleet in Saudi Arabia, in cost of services for the second quarter of 2020. The Production Services segment posted the following results for the periods presented.

Drilling and Evaluation Services Segment Results

The Drilling and Evaluation ("D&E") Services segment contributed $64.2 million to consolidated revenue for the second quarter of 2020. Segment Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, totaled $15.8 million in the second quarter of 2020, improving 9% from $14.6 million in the first quarter of 2020. Segment EBITDA margins improved 263 basis points as compared to the first quarter of 2020 mainly due to the favorable mix from logging and thru tubing services.

The D&E Services segment posted the following results for the periods presented.

Offsetting both the Production Services segment and D&E Services segment results were certain corporate costs, which are not allocated to segment operations.

Balance Sheet

Cash and cash equivalents are $79.3 million as of June 30, 2020, compared to $73.2 million as of December 31, 2019.

Total debt as of June 30, 2020 is $421.6 million with $86.2 million of such debt classified as short-term. Working capital for the Company totaled $141.9 million as of June 30, 2020. Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, for the second quarter of 2020 is $16 million, improving by $65 million as compared to the second quarter of 2019 and $30 million over the first quarter of 2020. Net Debt, which is the sum of our recorded Current installments of long-term debt, Short-term borrowings, and Long-term debt less Cash and cash equivalents, totaled $342.3 million as of June 30, 2020 as compared to $336.3 million as of March 31, 2020 and $296.9 million as of June 30, 2019.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(Unaudited)

(In US$ thousands except per share amounts)

The Company uses and presents certain key non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its business and trends, measure performance, prepare financial projections and make strategic decisions. Included in this release are discussions of earnings before interest, income tax and depreciation and amortization adjusted for certain non-recurring and non-core expenses ("Adjusted EBITDA"), net income and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") adjusted for certain non-recurring and non-core expenses ("Adjusted Net Income" and "Adjusted Diluted EPS," respectively), as well as a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to operating income, net income, and diluted EPS, respectively, in accordance with GAAP. The Company also discusses the non-GAAP balance sheet measure of the sum of our recorded current installments of long-term debt, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents ("Net Debt") in this release and provides a reconciliation to the GAAP measures of cash and cash equivalents, current installments of long-term debt, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt to Net Debt.

The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS provides useful information to investors in assessing its financial performance and results of operations as the Company's board of directors, management and investors use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS to compare the Company's operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of changes in capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation and amortization), items that do not impact the ongoing operations (transaction, integration, and startup costs) and items outside the control of its management team. Similarly, Net Debt is used by management as a liquidity measure used to illustrate the Company's debt level absent variability in cash and cash equivalents, and the Company believes that the presentation of Net Debt provides useful information to investors in assessing its financial leverage. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS should not be considered as an alternative to operating income, net income, or diluted EPS, respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Net Debt also should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP measures of cash and cash equivalents, current installments of long-term debt, short-term borrowings, and long-term debt. Finally, Free Cash Flow is used by management as a liquidity measure to illustrate the Company's ability to produce cash that is available to be distributed in a discretionary manner, after excluding investments in capital assets. Free Cash Flow should not be considered as an alternative to Net cash provided by (used in) operations or Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities, respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. You should not consider non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.

Information regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker for evaluating the financial performance of operating segments is focused on the timing of when the services are performed during a well's lifecycle. Production Services are services performed during the production stage of a well's lifecycle. Drilling and Evaluation Services are services performed during the pre-production stages of a well's lifecycle. The Company believes that the presentation of Segment EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing its financial performance and results of operations.
