Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Decline: Revenue decreased 8.6% QoQ and 10.1% YTD compared to 2024. This was driven by decreased customer pricing, lower activity levels (rig count dropped to 265 in July 2025), and the sale of the Vernal, Utah cementing business in late 2024. These declines were partially offset by the full inclusion of the AquaProp acquisition (wet sand services) in 2025 results.
- Profitability Pressure: Net loss widened in Q2 2025 to $7.2 million compared to a $3.7 million loss in Q2 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin contracted to 15.2% from 18.5% in the prior year quarter due to pricing pressure and cost inflation.
- Asset Disposal Losses: Loss on disposal of assets increased significantly to $4.3 million in Q2 2025 (vs. $0.4 million in Q2 2024) due to the sale of Tier II hydraulic fracturing equipment as part of the fleet transition strategy.
- Depreciation Reduction: Depreciation and amortization decreased 28.3% QoQ to $43.3 million, primarily due to assets fully depreciating and the impairment of Tier II assets in late 2024.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
- Capital Expenditures: Management projects 2025 capital expenditures to range between $270 million and $310 million. This includes approximately $100–$140 million for completion services and $170 million for the PROPWR power generation business.
- Share Repurchases: The Board extended the share repurchase program to December 31, 2026, with up to $200 million authorized. As of June 30, 2025, $89.2 million remained available. No shares were repurchased in Q2 2025.
- Power Generation Expansion: The company has significant commitments for power generation equipment ($84.8 million remaining on one arrangement and $96.8 million on others) to support the PROPWR business line, with deliveries expected through 2026.
- Risks:
- Trade Policy: New U.S. tariffs on steel (25%) and general imports (10%) announced in early 2025 may increase material input costs.
- Market Conditions: Volatility in oil prices (WTI ~$68/barrel in June 2025) and declining rig counts continue to pressure service pricing.
- Regulatory: Ongoing Texas Comptroller audits regarding fuel and gross receipt taxes have resulted in accrued settlement expenses of approximately $6.8 million combined.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Fleet Transition Costs: Verify the timeline and capital impact of retiring Tier II diesel units versus the revenue ramp-up of electric (FORCE) and dual-fuel fleets.
- PROPWR Execution: Monitor the delivery schedule and financing terms for the ~$180 million in committed power generation equipment to ensure it aligns with projected cash flows.
- Pricing Power: Assess the ability to pass through inflation and tariff-related cost increases to customers given the current decline in rig counts and service pricing.
- Debt Covenants: Review the ABL Credit Facility borrowing base calculations, as they are tied to eligible accounts receivable which may fluctuate with customer credit ratings and activity levels.
- Contingent Consideration: Track the fair value adjustments related to the AquaProp acquisition earn-out, which decreased by $0.4 million in Q2 2025.
