In the third quarter of 2024, NCS Multistage showcased a robust performance, with revenue increasing by 15% year-over-year to $44 million, surpassing expectations. The company's revenue for the first nine months of the year reached $118 million, demonstrating a clear upward trajectory. These figures were driven by growth in all major markets, including the U.S., Canada, and internationally.

Building on Market Positions and Differentiated Technology

NCS Multistage's success can be attributed to its strategic focus on building upon market positions and capitalizing on international and offshore opportunities. A notable achievement was the adoption of NCS' sliding sleeve solutions by a Canadian customer to mitigate seismic events during fracturing operations, showcasing the company's unique value proposition and expertise. Furthermore, the company's tracer diagnostics services have expanded to the North Sea, a significant milestone in its international growth strategy.

Innovation and Technology Leadership

The company's commitment to innovation is evident in its development of new products and solutions, such as the larger version of its frac sleeve and service tool for 7-inch casing and the high-performance dissolvable frac plug, PurpleReign. These innovations are designed to meet the evolving needs of customers, particularly in the context of increasingly complex wells and the shift towards geothermal and carbon capture projects.

Financial Health and Strategic Outlook

NCS Multistage's financial health remains strong, with a positive net cash position and a total liquidity of over $37 million. The company expects to meet or exceed its prior record level of annual revenue from international markets, demonstrating a solid foundation for future growth.

Looking ahead, NCS Multistage is poised to leverage its market positions, innovative solutions, and strategic initiatives to continue delivering value to its stakeholders. With a strong balance sheet, a robust product portfolio, and a focus on customer-centric solutions, the company is well-positioned to navigate the challenges and opportunities of the oil and gas industry in the coming years.
