Business Description

Company and Organization Company Description Nine Energy Service, Inc. (the “Company” or “Nine”), a Delaware corporation, is an oilfield services business that provides services integral to the completion of unconventional wells through a full range of tools and methodologies. The Company is headquartered in Houston, Texas. Current Bankruptcy Proceedings On February 1, 2026 (the “Petition Date”), the Company and our domestic and Canadian subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “Company Parties”) filed voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 (“Chapter 11”) of title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101–1532, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) to implement a prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) to effectuate a financial restructuring for the Company Parties’ existing indebtedness (the “Restructuring”) in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement (as defined below). Prior to filing the Chapter 11 Cases, on February 1, 2026, the Company Parties entered into a restructuring support agreement (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”) with an ad hoc group (collectively, the “Consenting Stakeholders”) of certain holders of the Company’s 13.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and the lenders (the “Prepetition ABL Lenders”) under the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2025 (the “Prepetition ABL Loan and Security Agreement”), by and among the Company and certain subsidiaries thereof, each as a borrower or guarantor, as applicable, White Oak Commercial Finance, LLC, as agent for the lenders, and the lenders from time to time party thereto. Pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement, the Consenting Stakeholders have agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to support the Plan. The material terms of the Plan include, among other things: • the Prepetition ABL Lenders providing the Company Parties with a senior secured super-priority asset-based debtor-in-possession credit facility consisting of up to $125.0 million in aggregate principal amount of revolving credit commitments (the “DIP ABL Facility”), including a roll-up or refinancing of all obligations under the Prepetition ABL Loan and Security Agreement, which will, upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, convert into an exit senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility consisting of up to $135.0 million in aggregate principal amount of revolving commitments on the effective date of the Plan (the “Plan Effective Date”) or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter; • on the Plan Effective Date, the reorganized Company will issue 100% of a single class of common equity interests to the holders of the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Notes will be canceled; and • on the Plan Effective Date, the Company’s currently existing common stock will be canceled. On February 3, 2026, the Bankruptcy Court, on an interim basis, approved the DIP ABL Facility, and the Company Parties entered into a loan and security agreement (the “DIP Loan and Security Agreement”) with White Oak Commercial Finance, LLC, as agent (the “DIP Agent”), and White Oak ABL 3, LLC and White Oak Europe ABL Limited, as lenders (the “DIP Lenders”), pursuant to which the DIP Lenders provided the Company Parties with the DIP ABL Facility. For additional information on the DIP ABL Facility, see Note 9 – Debt Obligations. Since the Petition Date, the Company Parties have been operating their businesses as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Company Parties have requested and obtained relief from the Bankruptcy Court that enables them to continue their ordinary course operations during the Chapter 11 Cases and uphold their commitments to their stakeholders, including employees, customers, and vendors, during the restructuring process, subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.…
