Forward Guidance
The company expects slightly reduced efficiencies in Q1 2023 compared to Q4 2022 due to a less efficient calendar and seasonal winter weather impacts. The startup of operations at the Lamesa mine and the acquisition of Monarch Silica should increase the number of fully integrated fleets and materials sales. The acquisition of Performance Proppants will result in a total of eight operating mines by the end of Q1 2023.
Positive Outlook
- Pricing levels have remained steady through February.
- The startup of operations at the Lamesa mine along with the acquisition of Monarch Silica should allow the Company to operate approximately five mines during the first quarter of 2023.
- This should serve to increase the number of fully integrated fleets and materials sales.
- The acquisition of Performance Proppants in late February will result in the Company exiting the quarter with a total of eight operating mines.
- The Company expects to enhance profit per fleet as it further integrates materials into its operating fleets
Challenges Ahead
- Lower commodity prices have impacted our customers' business over the last several months.
- In response to the sharp reduction in gas prices, the Company has seen a less efficient calendar develop over the course of the first quarter of 2023.
- The less efficient calendar combined with the seasonal winter weather impacts is expected to slightly reduce the Company's efficiencies in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022.
- Adjusted EBITDA per fleet will also be impacted by inefficiencies and fleet pricing trends in the market.
- Company will continue to assess the market dynamics.
