Management Comments
Wayne Prejean
Our first quarter results came in largely in-line with our expectations minus some softness in Canada due to the spring breakup arriving earlier this year. While we continue to operate in a complicated market environment, including uncertainty in the Middle East and volatile commodity prices, we are leveraging our differentiated, specialized product suite to capture international market share and preserve our leading position in downhole drilling tools worldwide. I’m also pleased that, despite a 4% year-over-year decline in global rig count, we remain confident in our ability to achieve and reaffirm our full year guidance, which constitutes growth at the midpoint when compared to our 2025 results. Our ClearPath and Drill-N-Ream product lines are gaining significant traction with international offshore operators as well as customers managing complex well configurations, enhancing our mix toward higher-margin, technology-enabled solutions to deliver improved returns for DTI. During the first quarter, we reached another important milestone. Our primary private equity sponsor, HHEP, completed the distribution of its remaining DTI shares to its limited partners. This materially increases our public float and trading liquidity. This distribution, together with the recent refreshment to the composition of our Board of Directors, marks a significant transition for DTI into a fully independent public company with broader ownership and a governance framework tailored to our next phase of growth. Looking ahead, we continue to expect activity in the first half of 2026 to remain relatively flat, but we see tangible catalysts emerging that should drive improvement later in the year. To capitalize on these opportunities, we plan to make targeted investments in select international markets to capture incremental demand and deploy our specialized technologies more efficiently into regions with complex well requirements. Near term, we expect our second quarter results to benefit from the earlier-than-expected spring break up in Canada, which should translate into an earlier post-breakup rebound. We are excited about the opportunities in front of us, both organic and inorganic, and I look forward to sharing updates on our growth plans in the coming quarters as we build on this solid foundation.”
