Revenue and Profitability Overview: National Energy Services Reunited Corp. (NESR) reported revenue of $303.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, marking a modest 2.1% year-over-year increase. This growth came despite a notable sequential decline of 11.8% from Q4 2024, primarily attributed to seasonal factors such as the Ramadan period. Net income for the quarter rose to $10.4 million, up 4.1% compared to Q1 2024, reflecting steady profitability amidst operating headwinds.
Earnings per Share and Adjusted Metrics: Diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter stood at $0.11, reflecting a 10% year-over-year growth. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted diluted EPS was $0.14, slightly below the $0.15 recorded in the same quarter last year. Adjusted net income was reported at $13.0 million, a 7.7% decline from Q1 2024. The differences between GAAP and non-GAAP earnings include remediation expenditures, impairment charges, and reserve releases, reflecting the company’s ongoing restructuring and compliance efforts.
Adjusted EBITDA and Operational Margin: Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $62.5 million, down 2.7% year-over-year and 28.4% sequentially. This figure includes $2.6 million in adjustments related to non-operational charges. Despite the decline, the EBITDA margin stood at 20.6%, underlining NESR’s ability to maintain operational discipline amid a challenging macroeconomic and geopolitical environment in the MENA region.
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Dynamics: Operating cash flow for Q1 2025 was $20.5 million, but free cash flow turned negative at $9.6 million, compared to a positive $31.2 million in Q1 2024. The decline was largely driven by seasonal increases in working capital during the holy month. Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $78.7 million from $108.0 million in the previous quarter, while total debt stood at $366.3 million, slightly down from year-end 2024. Net Debt increased to $287.6 million due to the reduction in cash despite ongoing debt repayments.
Strategic and Regional Positioning: NESR continues to benefit from its strong geographic presence in the MENA region, where upstream activity remains robust despite global economic pressures and falling commodity prices. Recent contract wins and accelerated deployment of advanced technologies, particularly in its NEDA portfolio, are expected to drive long-term growth. Management remains focused on operational efficiency, technology commercialization, and disciplined capital management.
Leadership Commentary and Outlook: Company leadership emphasized its commitment to countercyclical investment and long-term positioning, drawing parallels to its strategic response during the COVID-19 pandemic. Operational execution remained strong across the region, and internal enhancements have improved processes and control mechanisms. The management expects continued performance strength into 2025 and 2026, supported by new contracts and ongoing technological integration.
Considering recent key business, financial updates, current trading levels, and key business risks, a ‘Speculative Buy’ recommendation has been given on National Energy Services Reunited Corp (NASDAQ: NESR) at the current market price of USD 6.33, as on July 11, 2025 at 10:45 AM PDT.
