FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Sixty Six Oilfield Services, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2018 Performance
OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA, May 21, 2018 –SIXTY SIX OILFIELD SERVICES, INC. (OTCBB: SSOF), announces First Quarter Net Revenue of $426K on Gross Sales of $2.1M for the period ended March 31, 2018. Compared to the same period in 2017, the Company achieved quarter over quarter improvements of approximately 35% in gross sales and 28% in net revenue. The Company’s net margins increased slightly to 28% which included one-time sales of discounted inventory.
Dave T. Ho, President and Chief Executive Officer said “During the first quarter of the year we have made strong strides in sales and overall growth. However, we have also seen signs the oil field market tightening up with vendors and customers not meeting order and delivery commitments. We plan to address by redoubling our efforts to hold our vendors, independent sales representatives and customers to a higher standard of best practices and careful monitoring of order and delivery controls. We feel that the oil industry in the U.S. will further strengthen which helps us to grow with the industry. OPEC’s monthly report in May specifically cites U.S. shale producers continuing to ramp up volume. According to CNN Money, the number of rigs in the U.S. has doubled over the past year.”
While business is brisk, the Company’s clear focus continues to be working on the details around the acquisition of Five Star Rig and Supply. The Company has been working diligently with Five Star Management and Ownership and looks to consummate the deal in the near future. New announcements are expected to be made by the end of the second quarter.
The Company announces that all remaining debt that was not forgiven has been converted to stock. The first step of this process has been completed during the first quarter and will be fully settled by the end of the second quarter. Jim Frazier, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, said “The conversion of the remaining debt allows SSOF to become fully debt free and we have done so without significant dilution to our shareholders. This will allow the company to move forward with our business plans unencumbered. It has been a long time coming and is the primary reason that the Company had to delay the current Press Release and filing of First Quarter financials.”
Finally, the Company announces litigation disclosures detailing claims of $565,000 and a judgment award in favor of the Company in the amount of $3,600,000. The Company feels strongly that the claim against it has no merit, but may seek to settle the claim to best protect claimant and customer relationships. The judgment in favor of the Company is difficult to fully collect as the defendant has declared bankruptcy. The Company will work diligently through the bankruptcy courts to collect as much as possible.
