Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 28, 2016, Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. A copy of the release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 99.1 to this report contains “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The non-GAAP financial measures reflect earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income per diluted share (“Adjusted Diluted EPS”) and free cash flow, before acquisitions (“free cash flow”). A reconciliation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and free cash flow to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”) is included as an attachment to the press release. The Company believes the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and free cash flow is useful to the Company's investors because (i) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the Company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's securities and making strategic acquisitions and (ii) each of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and free cash flow is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the Company's normal operating results. In addition, EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community.
The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The information contained in this Current Report shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Forum Energy Technologies Announces
Second Quarter 2016 Results
HOUSTON, TEXAS, July 28, 2016 - Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FET) today announced second quarter 2016 revenue of $143 million, a decrease of $17 million, or 10%, from the first quarter 2016. Net loss for the quarter was $29 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $23 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2016. Excluding $0.12 per share of special items, the adjusted net loss was $0.19 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2016.
Forum generated cash flow from operating activities of $18 million and free cash flow after net capital expenditures but before acquisitions of $16 million during the second quarter of 2016.
Special items in the second quarter 2016 included pre-tax charges of $26 million for inventory and other working capital reserves and $3 million for restructuring charges, partially offset by $10 million of foreign exchange gains. See Tables 1-5 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
Segment Results
Drilling & Subsea segment revenue was $57 million, a 13% decrease from the first quarter 2016, due to the 23% decline in the United States drilling rig count and lower demand for subsea robotics and equipment.
The Completions segment revenue was $25 million, a 29% decline sequentially, as customers continued to defer all non-essential spending on completions equipment.
Production & Infrastructure segment revenue was $62 million, a 2% increase from the first quarter 2016, as the improvement in valve sales, particularly to the midstream gas transmission industry, was partially offset by lower surface production equipment deliveries in the quarter.
New orders received by Forum in the second quarter were $128 million, resulting in a book to bill ratio of 90%.
Review and Outlook
Cris Gaut, Forum’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, "Although the second quarter saw a new low in industry activity in this down cycle, our operating results were better than the industry trend. Our second quarter revenue declined only 10% sequentially, and we generated significant free cash flow. Our initiatives to right-size our organization and improve operational efficiency enabled us to hold our operating


1



income decremental margins to 13% from the prior quarter. I am confident these cost structure and operational enhancements will allow Forum to achieve high incremental margins when activity improves.
"Our financial strength is a differentiator, allowing us to invest in operational excellence initiatives, new product development and acquisition opportunities.
“Forum is well positioned for the recovery in drilling and completions activity. We have a significant majority of our revenue coming from North America, which is expected to be the first market to recover, and from early cycle, consumable products and activity-based equipment sales."
Recent Events
Forum received an order from New Orient Marine, to supply three remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) for its multi-purpose ice-class vessel. The order includes two Perry™ XLX 200 HP work class ROV systems and one Sub-Atlantic™ Comanche observation class ROV.
Forum has aligned with Offshore Technology Development, a subsidiary of Keppel Offshore & Marine, to offer the oil and gas industry the latest in hydraulic catwalk technology for offshore rigs, a catwalk with best-in-class cycle times for moving pipe and completion tubulars from the pipe storage area up to the drill floor.

(3) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA is useful to the Company's investors because EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
(4) Depreciation and amortization expense has been reclassified among corporate and the operating segments.  Prior period EBITDA financial information has been revised to conform with current period presentation with no impact to operating income.
(5) Includes transaction expenses.

(1) Includes earnings from equity investment.
(2) Includes transaction expenses, loss on sale of business and gain/(loss) on sale of assets.
(3) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA is useful to the Company's investors because EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's securities and making strategic acquisitions. In addition, EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.

(1) The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income and adjusted Diluted EPS is useful to the Company's investors because (i) EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the Company's operating performance and liquidity that reflects the resources available for strategic opportunities including, among others, investing in the business, strengthening the balance sheet, repurchasing the Company's securities and making strategic acquisitions and (ii) each of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income and adjusted Diluted EPS is useful to investors to assess and understand operating performance, especially when comparing those results with previous and subsequent periods or forecasting performance for future periods, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of the Company's normal operating results. In addition, EBITDA is a widely used benchmark in the investment community. See the attached separate schedule for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information.
(2) Loss (gain) on foreign exchange, net primarily relates to the translation of U.S. dollar denominated receivables for reporting purposes only and has no economic impact in dollar terms.
