Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income margin and diluted earnings per share, as adjusted are non-GAAP financial measures. These figures assume Cactus, Inc. held all units in its operating subsidiary at the beginning of the period. Additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures, including the definitions of these measures and the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are in the Supplemental Information tables.

(2)

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See the definitions of these measures and the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the Supplemental Information tables.

(3)

Operating income reflects certain expenses related to the Cactus International and FlexSteel acquisitions, including expenses related to purchase price fair value adjustments of inventory, fixed assets, backlog and other intangible amortization expenses related to purchase price accounting. See the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the Supplemental Information tables for further details.

Scott Bender, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Cactus, commented, “Overall company performance remained exceptionally strong in the third quarter. Our Spoolable Technologies segment meaningfully expanded sales with record international shipments and bookings since the acquisition, while achieving excellent margins. Our Pressure Control business declined as anticipated, but margins were more resilient than expected as strong domestic performance and synergy realization helped offset lower operating leverage in our Cactus International Joint Venture. I am also pleased with our order intake in the third quarter as our backlog grew by more than $150 million, nearly doubling in our Spoolable Technologies segment.

“We expect consolidated revenues in the fourth quarter to modestly increase. We believe that the U.S. land rig count will remain approximately flat from today’s levels through the remainder of the year. We anticipate that fourth quarter Pressure Control revenues will increase modestly versus the third quarter, as strength in the domestic market is combined with flat activity in the Middle East. In Spoolable Technologies, we expect sales to be up slightly in the fourth quarter, as continued international shipment momentum more than offsets typical North American market seasonality.”

Mr. Bender concluded, “This is a very exciting time for Cactus, and I am pleased to announce the Board’s approval of the construction of a Spoolable Technologies manufacturing facility in the Middle East. This facility, expected to commence operations in 2029, will offer a local footprint in a critically important long-term oil and gas region and further benefits from the rapidly expanding unconventional market in the Middle East. Customer demand for our Spoolable products continues to accelerate, and the previously announced expansion of our Baytown manufacturing facility coupled with the development in the Middle East is expected to provide the necessary capacity for several years of growth at what we believe are attractive returns.”

Segment Performance

We report two business segments, Pressure Control and Spoolable Technologies. Corporate and other expenses not directly attributable to either segment are presented separately as Corporate and Other expenses. Cactus International business results are included in the Pressure Control segment.

Pressure Control

Third quarter 2026 Pressure Control revenue decreased $39.2 million, or 11.4%, sequentially, primarily due to lower product shipments in the Middle East. Operating income increased $2.4 million, or 4.0%, sequentially, with margins increasing 300 basis points, as lower operating leverage was more than offset by continued strength in spares and repair margins in the Middle East and lower purchase price accounting-related adjustments, which declined from $20.0 million to $9.4 million in the quarter. Adjusted Segment EBITDA decreased $9.8 million, or 10.2%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins increasing 40 basis points.

Spoolable Technologies

Third quarter 2026 Spoolable Technologies revenues increased $21.3 million, or 20.2%, sequentially, due to strong growth in both domestic and international shipments. Operating income increased $9.4 million, or 29.3%, sequentially, on higher volume, while margins increased 230 basis points. Adjusted Segment EBITDA was higher by $9.8 million, or 23.3%, sequentially, with Adjusted Segment EBITDA margins increasing 110 basis points, as operating leverage moved favorably.

Corporate and Other Expenses

Third quarter 2026 Corporate and Other expenses increased $1.3 million sequentially, primarily due to higher transaction and personnel expenses. Third quarter Corporate and Other expenses included $0.6 million of transaction-related expenses resulting from the acquisition of Cactus International, $0.4 million higher than the second quarter.

Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other

As of September 30, 2026, the Company had $354.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, no bank debt outstanding, and $263.5 million of availability on our U.S. and UAE revolving credit facilities. Operating cash flow was $18.4 million for the third quarter of 2026, reflecting the $91.0 million amount disbursed to Baker Hughes related to legal entity formation activities. During the third quarter, the Company made dividend payments and associated distributions of $12.0 million.

Net capital expenditures were $16.1 million during the third quarter of 2026. For the full year 2026, the Company expects its net capital expenditures to be approximately $65 million. The estimate includes the placement of orders for long-lead equipment related to the Middle East Spoolable Technologies manufacturing facility and the ongoing Baytown facility expansion.

Remaining Performance Obligations, or backlog, closed the quarter at $615.6 million. The majority of this backlog is associated with our Cactus International business, with the balance attributable to Spoolable Technologies.

As of September 30, 2026, Cactus had 70,119,569 shares of Class A common stock outstanding (representing 87.5% of the total voting power) and 10,061,249 shares of Class B common stock outstanding (representing 12.5% of the total voting power).

Quarterly Dividend

The Board of Directors has approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share of Class A common stock. Payment will occur on December 17, 2026 to holders of record of Class A common stock at the close of business on November 30, 2026. A corresponding distribution of up to $0.15 per CC Unit has also been approved for holders of CC Units of Cactus Companies, LLC.

Cactus, Inc. – Supplemental Information

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted and adjusted net income margin

(unaudited)

Adjusted net income, diluted earnings per share, as adjusted and adjusted net income margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but they are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Cactus defines adjusted net income as net income subject to the adjustments described in the table below. Among other things, those adjustments exclude income attributable to non-controlling interests in the Company’s businesses, with the exception of income attributable to the non-controlling interests in the Company’s principal operating subsidiary, Cactus Companies LLC. For these interests, Adjusted net income assumes Cactus, Inc. held all units in its principal operating subsidiary throughout the entire period, with net income reduced by the resulting additional income tax expense related to the incremental income attributable to Cactus, Inc. Cactus defines diluted earnings per share, as adjusted as Adjusted net income divided by weighted average shares outstanding, as adjusted. Cactus defines Adjusted net income margin as Adjusted net income divided by total revenue. The Company believes this supplemental information is useful for evaluating performance period over period.

Cactus, Inc. – Supplemental Information

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin

(unaudited)

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Cactus defines EBITDA as net income excluding net interest, income tax and depreciation and amortization. Cactus defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding the other items outlined below.

Cactus management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful because they allow management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period without regard to financing methods or capital structure, or other items that impact comparability of financial results from period to period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s computations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Cactus defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. Cactus presents this supplemental information because it believes it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.

Cactus, Inc. – Supplemental Information

Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin

(unaudited)

Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin are not measures of net income as determined by GAAP but are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Cactus defines Adjusted Segment EBITDA as segment operating income excluding depreciation and amortization and the other items outlined below, in each case, that are attributable to the segment.

Cactus management believes Adjusted Segment EBITDA is useful because it allows management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s segment operating performance and compare the results of its segment operations from period to period without regard to financing methods or capital structure, or other items that impact comparability of financial results from period to period. Adjusted Segment EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or any other measure as determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s computations of Adjusted Segment EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Cactus defines Adjusted Segment EBITDA margin as Adjusted Segment EBITDA divided by total segment revenue. Cactus presents this supplemental information because it believes it provides useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.
