Forward Guidance

ProFrac is deploying a more disciplined approach to capital allocation to align with its E&P customers' activity levels. The Company lowered its active fleets in June and again in August. The Company expects further growth in the Proppant segment as the customer base expands, production increases, and costs are lowered.

Positive Outlook

  • Meaningful reductions to our cost structure that we believe will help maintain the per fleet profitability metrics.
  • Stronger commodity prices and improved credit markets should allow our customer base to increase activity levels and demand for our services in the back half of 2023, which we expect to increase further in 2024.
  • Remain prepared to be in a position to reactivate fleets as customers solidify their budgets and determine activity levels for next year.
  • The Proppant Segment continues to show signs of improvement.
  • Efforts to diversify the customer base reached an all-time high of approximately 70% third-party sales and we continue to pursue additional contracts that increase diversification and improve stability.
