provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as &#8220;anticipates,&#8221; &#8220;intends,&#8221; &#8220;plans,&#8221; &#8220;seeks,&#8221; &#8220;believes,&#8221; &#8220;estimates,&#8221; &#8220;expects&#8221; and similar references to future periods, or by the inclusion of forecasts or projections. Forward-looking statements, including our expectations regarding losses, appeals outcome and insurance coverage of the lawsuit, are based on our current expectations and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Such forward-looking statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company&#8217;s actual results could differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could affect those results include those mentioned in the documents that the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 10pt;line-height: 108%;margin-bottom: .001pt;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;margin-top: 0;text-indent: 0.25in;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-size: 10pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;"> </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 10pt;line-height: 108%;margin-bottom: .001pt;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;margin-top: 0;text-indent: 0.25in;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-size: 10pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;"> </span></p></div>

Item 7.01
Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 14, 2023,
NCS Multistage Holdings. Inc. (the "Company," "NCS", "we" or "our") issued a press release announcing that its subsidiary had settled outstanding litigation with Boyd & McWilliams Energy Group, Inc. et. al. (defined as the "Texas Matter" in our recent filing on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023) on the preceding day. Under the settlement agreement, the insurance carrier will pay all agreed-upon settlement amounts to the plaintiff, resulting in no cash payments by NCS. As of September 30, 2023, we had accrued a provision for litigation of $40.8 million associated with this matter. We expect to fully offset this provision during the fourth quarter of 2023 with a benefit from the settlement.
In addition, we do not currently have any outstanding litigation related to property damage claims, as we previously settled the litigation in Wyoming in August 2023, with such settlement also fully paid by the insurance carrier. For a further description of these settled litigation matters, please refer to the 'Texas Matter' and 'Wyoming Matter' in "Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies" to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in our recent filing on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.
A copy of the Company's press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and the accompanying exhibit shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to liabilities of that section, and is not incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.

Forward Looking Statements.
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "seeks," "believes," "estimates," "expects" and similar references to future periods, or by the inclusion of forecasts or projections. Forward-looking statements, including our expectations regarding losses, appeals outcome and insurance coverage of the lawsuit, are based on our current expectations and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Such forward-looking statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could affect those results include those mentioned in the documents that the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
