NCS Multistage Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: NCSM) has reported a notable 22.8% year-over-year increase in total revenues for the second quarter of 2025, reaching $36.5M. This performance underscores the company's resilience and adaptability in a fluctuating market, primarily driven by heightened activity in fracturing systems and frac plug sales across Canada and the U.S. Despite a seasonal revenue dip in Canada due to spring break-up, the company's strategic maneuvers have paved the way for sustained growth.
The acquisition of ResMetrics LLC for $5.9M, plus potential earn-outs, marks a significant step in NCSM's expansion into high-margin diagnostics markets. ResMetrics, with its robust revenue stream and EBITDA margin exceeding 30%, is expected to contribute $4–5M in revenue and $1–1.5M in EBITDA for the remainder of FY25. This move not only enhances NCSM's diagnostics portfolio but also extends its reach into the U.S. and Middle East markets, leveraging ResMetrics' advanced analytical lab and digital platform, PetroXY.
Financially, NCSM stands on solid ground with a net working capital of $64.0M and a total liquidity position of $42.6M, juxtaposed against a modest total debt of $7.7M. The company's adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year ranges between $22.0M to $25.5M, reflecting confidence in its operational and strategic direction. Stonegate Capital Partners' valuation analysis further reinforces NCSM's market potential, with a DCF valuation midpoint of $40.89 and an EV/EBITDA valuation midpoint of $42.06.
