Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 26, 2025, NPK International Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing financial information for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024. The press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the information in the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To help understand the Company’s financial performance, the Company has supplemented its financial results that it provides in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) with non-GAAP financial measures. Such financial measures include Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Common Share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA Margin from Continuing Operations, and Free Cash Flow.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other parties in the evaluation of our performance and liquidity with that of other companies in our industry. Management uses these measures to evaluate our operating performance, liquidity and capital structure. In addition, our incentive compensation plan measures performance based on our consolidated EBITDA, along with other factors. The methods we use to produce these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from methods used by other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Applicable reconciliations to the nearest GAAP financial measure of each non-GAAP financial measure are included in the attached Exhibit 99.1.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
“We delivered a strong finish to a historic year for NPK,” stated Matthew Lanigan, President and CEO of NPK International. “Through our third quarter 2024 divestiture, we streamlined our business model to focus exclusively on site-access and specialty rental solutions. We have also sharpened our commercial strategy and completed the expansion of our commercial sales team, to accelerate the penetration of higher-value growth opportunities. This transformative shift positions us to further optimize our return on invested capital through continued investments in organic expansion, targeted investments in inorganic growth and our $50 million share repurchase authorization.”
“Our nationwide sales coverage model and targeted focus on key growth accounts has positioned us to prioritize higher-growth, higher-value opportunities, consistent with our strategic focus. Our team demonstrated strong execution on our commercial growth and operational excellence initiatives throughout the year, a performance that culminated in 12% year-over-year organic growth in Adjusted EBITDA,” continued Lanigan. “Revenue growth and continued cost discipline contributed to improved operating leverage, resulting in 160 bps of Adjusted EBITDA margin expansion, when compared to the prior year.”
“We delivered an outstanding fourth quarter performance,” continued Lanigan. “Fourth quarter revenue and Adjusted EBITDA increased by 24% and 35%, respectively, as rental revenue reached a new single-quarter record. Gross margin increased by nearly 500 bps to a two-year high, supported by a more favorable sales mix, while Adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 240 bps to 29.7%, when compared to the prior year.”
“During the fourth quarter, we launched our new brand identity, NPK International, a leading worksite access solutions company committed to providing best-in-class products and services to support our customers critical infrastructure projects,” continued Lanigan. “We continue to make progress with our industry reclassification process and currently expect our new industry classification to be finalized before our first quarter 2025 results conference call.”
“Today, we are introducing financial guidance for the full-year 2025,” continued Lanigan. “We remain constructive on the long-term outlook for utility and critical infrastructure spending, together with our proven ability to deliver profitable growth through the cycle. To that end, at the midpoint of our 2025 financial guidance, we anticipate revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth of 10% and 18%, respectively,
when compared to the full-year 2024. Our guidance also assumes 2025 net capital expenditures of between $35 million to $40 million, approximately 80% of which is expected to be allocated toward the continued expansion of our rental fleet.”
“Entering 2025, NPK is uniquely positioned to capitalize on both favorable demand conditions within our utilities transmission and critical infrastructure markets, along with increased adoption of our next-generation composite matting technology,” continued Lanigan. “We remain focused on accelerating our pace of organic growth through geographic expansion, market share gains, and capabilities expansion within our worksite access markets, while continuing to drive efficiency improvements and cost optimization across the organization, consistent with our long-term focus on sustained value creation.”
BUSINESS UPDATE
NPK is engaged in a multi-year business transformation plan designed to drive organic commercial growth within targeted, higher-margin product and rental markets; improve asset optimization and organizational efficiency; and pursue a capital allocation strategy that prioritizes investments in opportunities with superior return profiles, together with a programmatic return of capital program.
Fourth quarter 2024 highlights include:
•Strong customer demand for matting rental and related services. Revenues from specialty rental and related services increased to a record $42 million in the fourth quarter, driven by elevated demand from key customer accounts in support of scheduled transmission projects. Revenues from product sales also increased to $16 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting typical quarterly fluctuations in order and delivery timing.
•Improved operating efficiency. NPK remains focused on efficiency improvements and operating cost optimization across every aspect of its business. The Company continues to evaluate and execute actions intended to streamline the organization and its cost structure, while targeting SG&A as percentage of revenue in the mid-teens percent range by early 2026. In the fourth quarter of 2024, NPK’s SG&A as percentage of revenue was 18.6%, a decline of nearly 350 bps versus the prior year period.
•Robust return of capital program. In February 2024, the Board of Directors increased the authorization for repurchases of common stock up to $50.0 million. No share repurchases were made in 2024 due to trading blackout restrictions associated with the Fluids Systems sale process that was completed in September 2024, along with other events.
•New brand identity. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company announced a name change from Newpark Resources (NYSE: NR) to NPK International (NYSE: NPKI). On December 19, 2024, the Company’s common stock began trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol ‘NPKI’.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
In the fourth quarter of 2024, NPK generated income from continuing operations of $8.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, on total revenue of $57.5 million, compared to income from continuing operations of $5.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, on total revenue of $46.5 million, in the prior year period. Income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2024 includes an income tax benefit of $1.3 million primarily reflecting the release of valuation allowances on U.S. state net operating losses following the sale of the Fluids Systems business. Gross margin was 39.2% in the fourth quarter 2024, compared to 34.2% in the fourth quarter of 2023. The Company reported Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations of $17.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, or 29.7% of total revenue, compared to $12.7 million, or 27.3% of total revenue, in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $10.7 million (18.6% of revenues) in the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $10.2 million (22.1% of revenues) in the prior year period. For the full year 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses were $46.0 million (21.2% of revenues), compared to $51.1 million (24.6%) in the prior year.
BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY
As of December 31, 2024, NPK had total cash of $18 million, total debt of $8 million, and available liquidity under its U.S. ABL credit facility of $66 million. Additionally, the Company had $18 million of receivables and net deferred consideration from the Fluids Systems sale as of December 31, 2024.
Operating cash flow used $4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, which included $20 million usage in net working capital driven by the elevated business activity. Capital investments used $12 million, net,
primarily funding the expansion of the mat rental fleet to support increased fourth quarter customer demand. The Company reduced debt outstanding by $6 million in the fourth quarter and remained in a net cash positive position as of December 31, 2024.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(Unaudited)
To help understand the Company’s financial performance, the Company has supplemented its financial results that it provides in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) with non-GAAP financial measures. Such financial measures include Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Common Share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EBITDA Margin from Continuing Operations, and Free Cash Flow.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors, securities analysts and other parties in the evaluation of our performance and liquidity with that of other companies in our industry. Management uses these measures to evaluate our operating performance, liquidity and capital structure. In addition, our incentive compensation plan measures performance based on our consolidated EBITDA, along with other factors. The methods we use to produce these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from methods used by other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Common Share
The following tables reconcile the Company’s income from continuing operations and income from continuing operations per common share calculated in accordance with GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations Per Common Share:
