WILLOW PARK, Texas, Nov. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ProFrac Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: ACDC) ("ProFrac", or the "Company") today announced financial and operational results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Results and Recent Highlights

Total revenue was $574.2 million compared to $709.2 million in the second quarter of 2023
Net loss was $17.9 million compared to a net loss of $4.6 million in the second quarter of 2023
Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was $149.3 million
Net cash provided by operating activities was $123.6 million
Free cash flow was $72.6 million, which combined with the preferred equity issuance, reduced net debt by $122.9 million⁽²⁾
Further right-sized active fleet count in August to optimize calendar efficiencies, increase utilization and reduce costs
Issued $50 million of perpetual preferred equity securities convertible into ProFrac Holding Corp. Class A common stock at a conversion price of $20.00 per share, subject to adjustment, to The Wilks Family

Matt Wilks, ProFrac's Executive Chairman, stated, "After right-sizing our fleet count and our overall support structure, we believe we have realized the synergies from our acquisitions and positioned the company to capitalize on the operating leverage this business has when we experience incremental customer demand.

"We are now focused on pursuing dedicated agreements in 2024 with operators under contracted terms. Driven by our recent successes in the ongoing RFP season, we expect to be in a position to increase our fleet count in the first quarter, with the majority of those fleets having already been committed.

"In addition, the first step to unlocking the potential of our Proppant Production segment is well underway. We are marketing all eight mines for the first time in an RFP process, and we are seeing positive results to date. We anticipate having more contracts with third parties, in addition to volumes demanded from ProFrac and spot customers. We expect this to greatly increase the utilization of our mining assets and lower our mining costs per ton.

"Our current visibility gives us confidence that 2024 will be much improved over 2023. We are well-positioned and excited for the coming year," concluded Wilks.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

For the third quarter of 2023, consolidated revenues totaled $574.2 million, down approximately 19% sequentially. The decrease was driven primarily by a lower average active fleet count and associated material sales, when compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Selling, general, and administrative costs were $61.0 million in the third quarter, of which $6.6 million was related to Flotek and $4.4 million was related to stock-based compensation.

Net loss for the third quarter was $17.9 million, and basic and diluted loss per Class A common share was $0.21.

In the third quarter, Adjusted EBITDA was $149.3 million, a decrease of 18% from the $182.5 million in the second quarter.

Net cash from operating activities was $123.6 million in the third quarter.

The Stimulation Services segment generated revenues of $489.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, which resulted in $93.3 million of Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as a substitute for net income (loss) or net cash from operating activities, respectively, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our profitability or liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are supplemental measures utilized by our management and other users of our financial statements such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and others, to assess our financial performance. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is an important supplemental measure because it allows us to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of our capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation and amortization) and items outside the control of our management team (such as income tax rates). We believe Free Cash Flow is an important supplemental liquidity measure of the cash that is available (if any), after purchases of property and equipment, for operational expenses, investment in our business, and to make acquisitions, and Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash in excess of our capital investments in property and equipment.

We view Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow as important indicators of performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net income (loss), before (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax provision, (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization, (iv) loss on disposal of assets, (v) stock-based compensation, and (vi) other charges, such as reorganization costs, stock compensation expense and other costs related to our initial public offering, certain credit losses, (gain) or loss on extinguishment of debt, unrealized loss (or gain) on investment, acquisition and integration expenses, litigation expenses and accruals for legal contingencies, and acquisition earn-out adjustments. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by or (used in) operating activities less investment in property, plant and equipment plus proceeds from sale of assets.

We believe that our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow will provide useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations.

Net income (loss) is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Because Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of this Non-GAAP financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

Net cash provided by operating activities is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow should not be considered as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities. Free Cash Flow has important limitations as an analytical tool including that Free Cash Flow does not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service our indebtedness and Free Cash Flow is not a reliable measure for actual cash available to the Company at any one time. Because Free Cash Flow may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of this Non-GAAP Financial Measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

The presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures is not intended to be a substitute for, and should not be considered in isolation from, the financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. The following tables present a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated.
