Drilling Tools International Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

HOUSTON, TEXAS (November 13, 2023) — Drilling Tools International Corp., (“DTI” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: DTI), a leading oilfield services company that manufactures and provides a differentiated, rental-focused offering of tools for use in horizontal and directional drilling, operating from 22 locations across North America, Europe and the Middle East, today reported its financial and operational results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter Financial Highlights

• Net Revenue of $38.1 million increased 4.4% from $36.5 million in Q3 2022

• Operating expenses of $(31.0) million were higher compared to $(28.5) million in Q3 2022

• Net Income was $4.3 million, compared to $6.7 million in Q3 2022

• Diluted Earnings Per Share were $0.21, compared to $0.36 in Q3 2022

• Adjusted EBITDA was $12.7 million, compared to $13.0 million in Q2 2022

“While US rig activity has declined approximately 20% since the beginning of the year, DTI continues to execute on plan, with a decrease of only 5% in monthly revenue from December 2022 to September 2023, outperforming the market,” said Wayne Prejean, CEO of DTI. “We remain focused on cost control, operational efficiencies and maintaining a strong financial position, in order to increase shareholder value and position the Company to thoughtfully execute on accretive growth opportunities going forward.”

Third Quarter 2023 Financial and Operating Results

In the third quarter the Company generated Net Tool Rental Revenue of $29.4 million, which was an increase of 9.4% compared to the third quarter of 2022. This increase was primarily driven by increased market activity and customer pricing across all divisions, led by the Directional Tool Rentals (“DTR”) division.

Product Sales Net Revenue in the third quarter totaled $8.8 million, a decrease of 9.6% compared to the third quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by lower than average rental tool recovery rate in the quarter.

Third quarter 2023 Operating Expenses were $(31.0) million, compared to $(28.5) million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by higher personnel expenses, depreciation from an increased property, plant and equipment balance, and an increase in insurance expenses.

Third quarter 2023 Net Income was $4.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to Net Income of $6.7 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. The primary factors contributing to the decline included higher taxes and a lower than average Rental Tool recovery revenue, as well as higher personnel, depreciation and insurance expenses. These negative impacts were partially offset by increased market activity and customer pricing across the Tool Rental segment.

Third quarter 2023 Adjusted EBITDA was $12.7 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $13.0 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by higher personnel expenses and other public company costs in the third quarter of 2023, and higher than average Tool Recovery revenue in the third quarter of 2022.

At September 30, 2023 the Company had $4.0 million of cash and cash equivalents. DTI retains strong financial flexibility with access to an undrawn $60 million revolving line of credit.

Outlook

US onshore rig activity has declined by approximately 20% on a monthly basis compared with the start of 2023. Despite the challenging environment, DTI continues to execute well, with a revenue decreased of only 5% from December 2022 to September 2023. Management anticipates the rig count will remain relatively flat in 4Q and is maintaining its previous projections for the full year 2023:

Full Year 2023

• Revenue: $150 – 158 million

• Adjusted EBITDA: $50 – 54 million

• Gross Capital Expenditures: $44 – 46 million

• Net Income: $12 – 19 million

• Adjusted Free Cash Flow⁽¹⁾: $6 – 8 million

(1) Adjusted Free Cash Flow defined as Adjusted EBITDA less Gross Capital Expenditures

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to understand and evaluate its core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as net income (loss), excluding interest income; interest expense; other income (expense), net; income tax benefit (expense); depreciation and amortization; and certain other non-cash or non-recurring items impacting net income (loss) from time to time. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA helps identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the expenses that the Company excludes in Adjusted EBITDA.

The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, reduced by gross capital expenditures. The Company believes Adjusted Free Cash Flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash that is available, after capital expenditures, for operational expenses and investment in its business and is a key financial indicator used by management. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures the Company’s ability to generate or use cash. Once the Company’s business needs and obligations are met, cash can be used to maintain a strong balance sheet and invest in future growth.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as substitutes for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures compared to the closest comparable GAAP measure. Some of these limitations are that:

• Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain recurring, non-cash charges such as depreciation of fixed assets and amortization of acquired intangible assets and, although these are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future;

• Adjusted EBITDA excludes income tax benefit (expense); and

Adjusted Free Cash Flow does not reflect the Company’s future contractual commitments.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following tables present a reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (non-recurring transaction expenses recorded to other (income) expense are presented separately within Adjusted EBITDA):

Exhibit 99.2 Investor Presentation November 2023

Disclaimers General: Drilling Tools International Corporation (“DTI”) is making this presentation available in connection with the release of its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. The information contained in this presentation does not purport to be all-inclusive or to contain all information that prospective investors may require. Prospective investors are encouraged to conduct their own analysis and review of information contained in this presentation as well as important additional information through the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) EDGAR system at www.sec.gov and on our website at www.drillingtools.com. Forward-Looking Statements: This presentation and the oral statements made in connection herewith include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. DTI’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections, and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward looking. These forward- looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding DTI and its management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this presentation may include, for example, statements about: (1) the demand for DTI’s products and services, which is influenced by the general level activity in the oil and gas industry; (2) DTI’s ability to retain its customers, particularly those that contribute to a large portion of its revenue; (3) DTI’s ability to remain the sole North American distributor of the Drill-N-Ream; (4) DTI’s ability to employ and retain a sufficient number of skilled and qualified workers, including its key personnel; (5) DTI’s ability to market its services in a competitive industry; (9) DTI’s ability to execute, integrate and realize the benefits of acquisitions, and manage the resulting growth of its business; (6) potential liability for claims arising from damage or harm caused by the operation of DTI’s tools, or otherwise arising from the dangerous activities that are inherent in the oil and gas industry; (7) DTI’s ability to obtain additional capital; (8) potential political, regulatory, economic and social disruptions in the countries in which DTI conducts business, including changes in tax laws or tax rates; (9) DTI’s dependence on its information technology systems, in particular Customer Order Management Portal and Support System, for the efficient operation of DTI’s business; (10) DTI’s ability to comply with applicable laws, regulations and rules, including those related to the environment, greenhouse gases and climate change; (11) DTI’s ability to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting; (12) the potential for volatility in the market price of DTI’s common stock; (13) the impact of increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs incurred as a public company, including the impact of possible shareholder litigation; (14) the potential for issuance of additional shares of DTI’s common stock or other equity securities; (15) DTI’s ability to maintain the listing of its common stock on Nasdaq; and (16) other risks and uncertainties separately provided to you and indicated from time to time described in filings and potential filings by DTI with the SEC. These forward looking statements are based on DTI’s management's current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. DTI cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive and not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including projections, which speak only as of the date made. You should also carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in “Risk Factors” in the Appendix to this presentation, as well as the “Risk Factors” section of DTI’s proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement filed on May 12, 2023, and the information presented in DTI’s current report on Form 8-K filed June 27, 2023, the quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed August 14, 2023 and in subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC. These filings or potential filings may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements referred hereto. DTI undertakes no obligation to and accepts no obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements or to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based, except as required by law. Industry, Market Data and Partnerships: In this presentation, DTI relies on and refers to certain information and statistics regarding the markets and industries in which DTI competes. Such information and statistics are based on management’s estimates and/or obtained from third-party sources, including reports by market research firms and company filings. While DTI believes such third-party information is reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of the indicated information. DTI has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by the third-party sources. This presentation contains descriptions of certain key business partnerships of DTI. These descriptions are based on DTI’s management team’s discussion with such counterparties, certain non-binding written agreements and the latest available information and estimates as of the date of this presentation. Use of Projections: This presentation contains projected financial information with respect to DTI. Such projected financial information constitutes forward-looking information, is for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as necessarily being indicative of future results. Further, illustrative presentations are not necessarily based on management’s projections, estimates, expectations or targets but are presented for illustrative purposes only. DTI’s independent auditors have not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this presentation, and, accordingly, they did not express an opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this presentation. The assumptions and estimates underlying such financial forecast information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, competitive and other risks and uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements” above. Actual results may differ materially from the results contemplated by the financial forecast information contained in this presentation, and the inclusion of such information in this presentation is not intended, and should not be regarded, as a representation by any person that the results reflected in such forecasts will be achieved. Further, the metrics referenced in this presentation regarding select aspects of DTI’s operations were selected by DTI on a subjective basis. Such metrics are provided solely for illustrative purposes to demonstrate elements of DTI’s business, are incomplete and are not necessarily indicative of DTI’s performance or future performance or overall operations. There can be no assurance that historical trends will continue. Any investment in DTI’s common stock entails a high degree of risk. No assurance can be given that investors will receive a return on their capital, and investors could lose part or all of their investment. Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This presentation includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including, but not limited to: Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. Note that other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently, and, therefore, such financial measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing DTI’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), net cash (used in) provided by operating activities or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. You should be aware that DTI’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. DTI believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to DTI’s results of operations. DTI believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in DTI, and in comparing DTI’s financial measures with those of other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which items of expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to footnotes where presented on each page of this presentation or to the tables herein for a reconciliation of these measures to what DTI believes are the most directly comparable measure evaluated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of historical non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures are provided in the Appendix. This presentation also includes certain projections of non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliation of these items to net income include gains or losses on sale or consolidation transactions, accelerated depreciation, impairment charges, gains or losses on retirement of debt, variations in effective tax rate and fluctuations in net working capital, which are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events. 1

The Rental Tool Business & DTI’s Value Proposition Why do E&P operators and some service providers prefer to rent rather than buy?

Risk Factors Risk Factors Summary Certain factors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our common stock following the business combination could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. Potential investors are encouraged to review the “Risk Factors” section of our proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement filed with the SEC on May 12, 2023. Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry • We are dependent upon the level of activity in the oil and gas industry, which is volatile and has caused, and may in the future cause, fluctuations in our operating results. Volatility and declines in oil and gas prices may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operation. • We operate in a highly competitive industry, and the introduction of new products and technologies by our competitors, as well as the expiration of the intellectual property rights protecting our products and technologies, could lead to lower revenue and earnings. • We are dependent on a relatively small number of customers in a single industry. The loss of an important customer could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. • A portion of our revenue is derived from our non-United States operations and sales, which exposes us to additional risks inherent in doing business in other countries. • If we fail to continue to improve and enhance the functionality, performance, reliability and design of our products in a manner that responds to our customers’ evolving needs, our business may be adversely affected. • Quality inconsistency, defects and product failures could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. • We may be unable to manage our growth effectively. • A financial downturn could negatively affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. • Inflation may increase the cost of operations beyond what we can recover through price increases. • Events outside of our control, including an epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease, such as COVID-19, may materially adversely affect our business. • Cyberattacks or other failures in telecommunications or IT systems could result in client or proprietary information theft, data corruption and significant disruption of our business operations. Our services may be perceived as not being secure, clients may curtail or stop using our services and we may incur significant legal and financial exposure and liabilities. • If we fail to attract and retain qualified management and skilled technical personnel, our business may be adversely affected. • We may incur indebtedness following the business combination that could adversely affect our business. • The terms and covenants in our existing indebtedness restrict our ability to engage in some business and financial transactions, which could adversely affect our business. • Our customers and the third parties with whom we contract are participants in the oil and gas, manufacturing, engineering and various other industries and are therefore subject to a number of risks specific to their industries, which directly or indirectly subjects our business to many of the same risks to which their respective operations are subject. • If the security measures of the third parties with whom we contract are breached and unauthorized access is obtained to client or proprietary data or our IT systems, we may incur significant legal and financial exposure and liabilities. Risks Relating to Legal and Regulatory Matters • We could be adversely affected if we fail to comply with any of the numerous existing or future federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations and policies that govern environmental protection, manufacturing and other matters applicable to our businesses. • The legal and regulatory landscape concerning oil & gas is complex and constantly changing. The adoption of any future federal, state, local or foreign laws or regulations imposing reporting obligations on, banning or in any other way limiting hydraulic fracturing, land or offshore drilling, or any other aspect of oil and gas exploration could make it more difficult for our clients to complete natural gas and oil wells, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. • We may be unable to protect our proprietary rights in our products, technologies and processes. • Legislative or regulatory initiatives, conservation measures or technological advances could reduce demand for oil and gas and, in turn, reduce demand for our products. • Climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of greenhouse gasses could result in increased operating costs and reduced demand for our products. • Our business exposes us to potential environmental, product or personal injury liability. • We may not have adequate insurance for potential environmental, product or personal injury liabilities. 33

Risk Factors (Cont’d) Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock • We may not meet the expectations of the market or achieve the performance indicated in this Presentation. • The price of our securities may be volatile and may trade significantly below the price you pay for them. • Our financial projections may not prove to be reflective of actual future results. • There may be circumstances in which the interests of our significant stockholders could conflict with the interests of our other stockholders. • We may issue additional shares of our common stock or other equity securities, and such issuances could reduce the price of our common stock and dilute your ownership interest. • Nasdaq may delist our common stock from trading, and such delisting could limit investors’ ability to execute transactions in our common stock and subject us to additional trading restrictions. 34
