Enerflex Ltd. (TSX: EFX) (NYSE: EFXT) (“Enerflex” or the “Company”)
today reported its financial and operational results for the three
and twelve months ended December 31, 2024.
All amounts presented are in U.S. Dollars
(“USD”) unless otherwise stated.
Q4/24 FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL
OVERVIEW
- Generated
revenue of $561 million compared to $574 million in Q4/23 and $601
million in Q3/24.
- Recorded gross
margin before depreciation and amortization of $174 million, or 31%
of revenue, compared to $158 million, or 28% of revenue in Q4/23
and $176 million, or 29% of revenue during Q3/24.
- Energy
Infrastructure (“EI”) and After-Market Services (“AMS”) product
lines generated 67% of consolidated gross margin before
depreciation and amortization during Q4/24 and 69% on a full-year
basis in 2024.
- ES gross margin
before depreciation and amortization increased to 21% in Q4/24
compared to 15% in Q4/23 and 19% in Q3/24, benefiting from
favorable product mix and strong project execution.
- Adjusted
earnings before finance costs, income taxes, depreciation, and
amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”) of $121 million compared to $91
million in Q4/23 and $120 million during Q3/24. The year-over-year
increase in adjusted EBITDA reflects improved gross margin and
favorable foreign exchange rate movements.
- Cash provided by
operating activities was $113 million, which included net working
capital recovery of $39 million. This compares to cash provided by
operating activities of $158 million in Q4/23 and $98 million in
Q3/24. Free cash flow was $76 million in Q4/24 compared to $139
million during Q4/23 and $78 million during Q3/241.
- Invested $47
million in the business in Q4/24, consisting of $32 million in
capital expenditures and $15 million for expansion of an EI project
in the Eastern Hemisphere (“EH”) that will be accounted for as a
finance lease.
- Recorded ES
bookings of $301 million inclusive of a $75 million derecognition,
with no associated gross margin on future revenue, related to the
termination of the cryogenic natural gas processing facility
project contract in Kurdistan. The majority of bookings originated
in the North America segment and relate to gas compression
solutions. Total backlog as at December 31, 2024 was $1.3 billion,
providing strong visibility into future revenue generation and
business activity levels.
- Enerflex’s USA
contract compression business continues to perform well, led by
increasing natural gas production in the Permian basin and
continued discipline across industry competitors.
- This business
generated revenue of $36 million and gross margin before
depreciation and amortization of 78% during Q4/24 compared to $33
million and 76% in Q4/23 and $37 million and 70% during Q3/24.
- Utilization
remained stable at 95% across a fleet size of approximately 428,000
horsepower. Enerflex expects its North American contract
compression fleet will grow to over 475,000 horsepower by the end
of 2025.
- The Board of
Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of CAD$0.0375 per
share, payable on March 24, 2025, to shareholders of record on
March 10, 2025.
BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY
- Enerflex exited
Q4/24 with net debt of $616 million, which included $92 million of
cash and cash equivalents, a reduction of $208 million compared to
Q4/23 and $76 million lower than the third quarter.
- During Q4/24,
Enerflex redeemed $62.5 million (or 10% of the aggregate principal
amount originally issued) of its 9.00% Senior Secured Notes due
2027. The redemption was completed at a price of 103% of the
principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid
interest up to, but excluding, the redemption date. The redemption
was funded with available liquidity, which included cash and cash
equivalents and the undrawn portion of Enerflex’s lower cost $800
million revolving credit facility.
- Enerflex’s
bank-adjusted net debt-to-EBITDA ratio was approximately 1.5x at
the end of Q4/24, down from 2.3x at the end of Q4/23 and 1.9x at
the end of Q3/24. The leverage ratio at the end of Q4/24 is within
Enerflex’s target bank-adjusted net debt-to-EBITDA ratio range of
1.5x to 2.0x.
- The Company
maintains strong liquidity with access to $614 million under its
credit facility.
__________________________________________1
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company modified its
calculation of free cash flow. Free cash flow is now defined as
cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less total capital
expenditures (growth and maintenance) for PP&E and EI assets,
mandatory debt repayments, and lease payments, while proceeds on
disposals of PP&E and EI assets are added back. Refer to the
“Free Cash Flow” section of this press release for further
details.2 The Company defines bank-adjusted net debt to EBITDA as
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF”) and its
9.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”) less cash and
cash equivalents, divided by EBITDA as defined by the Company’s
lenders for the trailing 12- months.
MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
“We delivered a strong finish to the year, with
solid operating results across Enerflex’s geographies and product
lines,” said Marc Rossiter, Enerflex’s President and Chief
Executive Officer. “Our Energy Infrastructure and After-Market
Services business lines continue to provide steady, reliable
performance and revenue streams, reinforcing Enerflex’s ability to
deliver sustainable returns across our global platform. Our
Engineered Systems business delivered solid performance throughout
2024, highlighted by strong project execution.”
Rossiter continued, “As we enter 2025,
visibility across our business remains solid, underpinned by a $1.5
billion contract backlog for our Energy Infrastructure assets, the
recurring nature of our After-Market Services business, and a $1.3
billion Engineered Systems backlog. By focusing on operational
execution, optimizing our core business, and maintaining
disciplined capital allocation, we expect to further reduce debt
and create meaningful long-term value for our shareholders.”
Preet S. Dhindsa, Enerflex’s Senior Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Enerflex delivered
fourth-quarter results that exceeded the ranges included in our
2024 guidance. We are particularly pleased with our ongoing
progress in efficiently managing working capital, lowering net
finance costs, and optimizing the Company’s debt stack. Backed by
Enerflex’s strong global leadership team and talented employees, we
continue to enhance the profitability and resilience of our
operations. Our focus remains on generating sustainable free cash
flow, further improving our balance sheet health and positioning
the Company for long-term growth and value creation.”

Enerflex's consolidated financial statements and
notes (the "financial statements") and Management's Discussion and
Analysis ("MD&A") as at December 31, 2024, can be accessed on
the Company's website at www.enerflex.com and under the Company's
SEDAR+ and EDGAR profiles at www.sedarplus.ca and
www.sec.gov/edgar, respectively.
OUTLOOK
During 2025, Enerflex’s priorities include: (1)
enhancing the profitability of core operations; (2) leveraging the
Company’s leading position in core operating countries to
capitalize on expected increases in natural gas and produced water
volumes; and (3) maximizing free cash flow to further strengthen
Enerflex’s financial position, provide direct shareholder returns,
and invest in selective customer supported growth
opportunities.
Industry Update
Enerflex’s preliminary outlook for 2025 reflects
steady demand across its business lines and geographic regions.
Operating results will be underpinned by the highly contracted EI
product line and the recurring nature of AMS, which together are
expected to account for approximately 65% of our gross margin
before depreciation and amortization. Enerflex’s EI product line is
supported by customer contracts, which are expected to generate
approximately $1.5 billion of revenue during their current
terms.
Complementing Enerflex's recurring revenue
businesses is the ES product line, which carried a backlog of
approximately $1.3 billion as at December 31, 2024, the majority of
which is expected to convert into revenue over the next 12 months.
During 2025, ES gross margin before depreciation and amortization
is expected to be more consistent with the historical long-term
average for this business line, reflective of the weakness in
domestic natural gas prices during much of 2024 and a shift of
project mix in Enerflex’s ES backlog. Notwithstanding, near-term
revenue for this business line is expected to remain steady.
Enerflex is encouraged by initial customer response to improved
domestic natural gas prices, and the medium-term outlook for ES
products and services continues to be attractive, driven by
expected increases in natural gas and produced water volumes across
Enerflex’s global footprint.
The Company continues to closely monitor
geopolitical tensions across North America, including the potential
application of tariffs. Based on currently available information,
the direct impact of tariffs on Enerflex’s business is expected to
be mitigated by the Company’s diversified operations and proactive
risk management. Enerflex’s operations in the USA, Canada and
Mexico are largely distinct in the customers and projects they
serve, and the Company has been working to mitigate the impact of
potential tariffs. The United States is Enerflex’s largest
operating region, generating 45% of consolidated revenue in 2024 by
destination of sale, and we believe the Company is well positioned
to benefit from growth in domestic energy production. Enerflex’s
operations in Canada and Mexico generated 10% and 3% of
consolidated revenue in 2024, respectively.
Capital Spending
Enerflex is targeting a disciplined capital program in 2025,
with total capital expenditures of $110 million to $130 million.
This includes a total of approximately $70 million for maintenance
and PP&E capital expenditures. Similar to 2024, disciplined
capital spending will focus on customer supported opportunities in
the USA and Middle East. Notably, the fundamentals for contract
compression in the USA remain strong, led by expected increases in
natural gas production in the Permian basin and capital spending
discipline from market participants. Enerflex will continue to make
selective customer supported growth investments in this
business.
Capital Allocation
Providing meaningful direct shareholder returns
is a priority for Enerflex. With the Company operating within its
target leverage range of bank-adjusted net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of
1.5x to 2.0x, Enerflex is positioned to increase direct shareholder
returns. This is reflected through the previously announced 50%
increase of the Company’s quarterly dividend.
Going forward, capital allocation decisions will
be based on delivering value to Enerflex shareholders and measured
against Enerflex’s ability to maintain balance sheet strength. In
addition to increases to the Company’s dividend, share repurchases,
and disciplined growth capital spending, Enerflex will also
consider reducing leverage below its target range to further
improve balance sheet strength and lower net finance costs.
Unlocking greater financial flexibility positions the Company to
capitalize on opportunities to optimize its debt stack and respond
to evolving market conditions.
DIVIDEND DECLARATION
Enerflex is committed to paying a sustainable
quarterly cash dividend to shareholders. The Board of Directors has
declared a quarterly dividend of CAD$0.0375 per share, payable on
March 24, 2025, to shareholders of record on March 10, 2025. With
this dividend declaration, Enerflex has shortened the number of
calendar days between its record date and payment date to better
align the Company’s dividend approach with peers.

NON-IFRS MEASURES
Throughout this news release and other materials
disclosed by the Company, Enerflex employs certain measures to
analyze its financial performance, financial position, and cash
flows, including net debt-to-EBITDA ratio and bank-adjusted net
debt-to-EBITDA ratio. These non-IFRS measures are not standardized
financial measures under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar
financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Accordingly,
non-IFRS measures should not be considered more meaningful than
generally accepted accounting principles measures as indicators of
Enerflex's performance. Refer to "Non-IFRS Measures" of Enerflex's
MD&A for the three months ended December 31, 2024, for
information which is incorporated by reference into this news
release and can be accessed on Enerflex's website at

FREE CASH FLOW AND DIVIDEND PAYOUT
RATIO
The Company modified its calculation of free
cash flow to include a deduction for growth capital expenditures
and exclude the deduction for dividends paid. Free cash flow is now
defined as cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less
total capital expenditures (growth and maintenance) for PP&E
and EI assets, mandatory debt repayments, and lease payments, while
proceeds on disposals of PP&E and EI assets are added back.
This modification is aimed at providing additional clarity into
Enerflex’s free cash flow and help users of the financial
statements assess the level of free cash generated to fund other
non-operating activities. These activities could include dividend
payments, share repurchases, and non-mandatory debt repayments.
Free cash flow may not be comparable to similar measures presented
by other companies as it does not have a standardized meaning under
IFRS. Management has adopted this non-IFRS measure to improve
comparability with its peers.

BANK-ADJUSTED NET DEBT-TO-EBITDA
RATIO
The Company defines net debt as short- and
long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents at period end, which
is then divided by EBITDA for the trailing 12 months. In assessing
whether the Company is compliant with the financial covenants
related to its debt instruments, certain adjustments are made to
net debt and EBITDA to determine Enerflex's bank-adjusted net
debt-to-EBITDA ratio. These adjustments and Enerflex's
bank-adjusted net-debt-to EBITDA ratio are calculated in accordance
with, and derived from, the Company's financing agreements.
GROSS MARGIN BEFORE DEPRECIATION AND
AMORTIZATION
Gross margin before depreciation and
amortization is a non-IFRS measure defined as gross margin
excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization. The
historical costs of assets may differ if they were acquired through
acquisition or constructed, resulting in differing depreciation.
Gross margin before depreciation and amortization is useful to
present operating performance of the business before the impact of
depreciation and amortization that may not be comparable across
assets.
ADVISORY REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING
INFORMATION
This news release contains “forward-looking
information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities
laws and “forward-looking statements” (and together with
“forward-looking information”, “FLI”) within the meaning of the
safe harbor provisions of the US Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of
historical fact are FLI. The use of any of the words “anticipate”,
“believe”, “could”, “estimate”, “expect”, “future”, “intend”,
“may”, “plan”, “potential”, “predict”, “should”, “will” and similar
expressions, (including negatives thereof) are intended to identify
FLI.
In particular, this news release includes
(without limitation) forward-looking information and statements
pertaining to:
- expectations
that the North American contract compression fleet will grow to
over 475,000 horsepower by the end of 2025;
- the Company’s
expectations to further reduce debt, provide direct shareholder
returns and create meaningful long-term value for Enerflex
shareholders, and the timing associated therewith, if at all;
- disclosures
under the heading “Outlook” including:
- steady demand
will continue across our business lines and geographic regions for
2025;
- the highly
contracted EI product line and the recurring nature of AMS will,
together, account for approximately 65% of Enerflex’s gross margin
before depreciation and amortization;
- customer
contracts within Enerflex’s EI product line will generate
approximately $1.5 billion of revenue during their current
terms;
- a majority of
the ES product line backlog of approximately $1.3 billion as at
December 31, 2024, will convert into revenue over the next 12
months;
- ES gross margin
before depreciation and amortization is expected to be more
consistent with the historical long-term average for this business
line with near term revenue remaining steady;
- the potential
application of tariffs and the anticipated impact of such tariffs
including the Company’s expectation that such impact to Enerflex
will be mitigated by the Company’s diversified operations and
proactive risk management;
- that the Company
is well positioned to benefit from growth in domestic energy
production;
- total capital
expenditures in 2025 will be $110 million to $130 million which
includes approximately $70 million for maintenance and PP&E
capital expenditures; and
- the fundamentals
for contract compression in the USA remain strong, led by expected
increases in natural gas production in the Permian and capital
spending discipline from market participants;
- the ability of
Enerflex to continue to pay a sustainable quarterly cash
dividend.
FLI reflect management's current beliefs and
assumptions with respect to such things as the impact of general
economic conditions; commodity prices; the markets in which
Enerflex's products and services are used; general industry
conditions, forecasts, and trends; changes to, and introduction of
new, governmental regulations, laws, and income taxes; increased
competition; availability of qualified personnel; political unrest
and geopolitical conditions; and other factors, many of which are
beyond the control of Enerflex. More specifically, Enerflex’s
expectations in respect of its FLI are based on a number of
assumptions, estimates and projections developed based on past
experience and anticipated trends, including but not limited
to:
- any potential
tariffs imposed will have a manageable impact on our operations and
cost structure and increased domestic energy production will offset
any negative effects of such tariffs;
- market dynamics,
including increased energy demand, infrastructure development, and
production activity, will drive growth in natural gas and produced
water volumes across Enerflex’s core operating countries;
- market
conditions, customer activity, and industry fundamentals will
support stable demand across our business lines and geographic
regions throughout 2025;
- the high level
of contractual commitments within the EI product line and the
predictable, recurring revenue from AMS will continue;
- existing
customer contracts within the EI product line will remain in effect
and with no material cancellations or renegotiations over their
remaining terms;
- the execution of
projects within the ES product line will proceed as scheduled and
the conversion to revenue will proceed without significant delays
or cancellations;
- no significant
unforeseen cost overruns or project delays;
- Enerflex will
maintain sufficient cash flow, profitability, and financial
flexibility to support the ongoing payment of a sustainable
quarterly cash dividend, subject to market conditions, operational
performance, and board approval.
As a result of the foregoing, actual results,
performance, or achievements of Enerflex could differ and such
differences could be material from those expressed in, or implied
by, the FLI. The principal risks, uncertainties and other factors
affecting Enerflex and its business are identified under the
