Insights

The reported net loss of $59 million for the full year and $97 million for the fourth quarter, as opposed to the previous year's net income, is a significant downturn for ProFrac. This shift from profitability to loss is a red flag for investors and could be indicative of underlying operational or market challenges. The increase in net debt to $1.08 billion also suggests a potential liquidity concern, despite the modest cash and cash equivalents on hand. However, the 173% increase in free cash flow and the reduction in capital expenditures by 25% year-over-year demonstrate proactive management of the company's finances in a difficult market environment.

Looking forward, the company's capital expenditure forecast for 2024 implies a strategic focus on growth and maintenance, which could signal confidence in market recovery or a strategic pivot. The activation of 10 fleets and expected improvements in mine utilization suggest operational optimizations that investors will watch closely for signs of sustainable profitability. The intercompany revenue proportions in the Proppant Production and Manufacturing segments also warrant attention as they may affect the transparency of financial health within the broader corporate structure.

The oilfield services industry, in which ProFrac operates, is highly sensitive to commodity prices and market demand. ProFrac's operational results, including the strategy to enhance pumping efficiency and increase fleet count, are crucial for staying competitive. The improvements in pumping hours per active fleet could lead to greater operational efficiency and, potentially, to a stronger market position.

The expected pricing range for the Proppant Production segment indicates a stable but competitive market environment. The company's focus on achieving the lowest operating costs per unit could be a key differentiator, although this must be balanced against the risk of pricing pressures. Market observers should consider the broader industry trends, such as technological advancements and evolving regulatory landscapes, which could impact ProFrac's operational strategies and financial performance.

The softness in the market throughout the second half of the year, as stated by ProFrac's Executive Chairman, is reflective of the volatility in the energy sector. This volatility can be attributed to fluctuating oil prices, geopolitical tensions and shifts in energy policy. ProFrac's strategic priorities, including improving utilization and reducing operating costs, are directly aligned with the need for efficiency and cost-effectiveness in a sector known for its cyclical nature.

The outlook for the Stimulation Services segment is cautiously optimistic, with increased fleet activation and improved profitability levels anticipated for 2024. This suggests that ProFrac is adapting to market conditions by optimizing their assets and focusing on operational excellence. The anticipated mine utilization increase and higher expected pumping hours will be critical for the company's performance in the Proppant Production segment, which is a key factor in hydraulic fracturing operations.

WILLOW PARK, Texas, March 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ProFrac Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: ACDC) ("ProFrac", or the "Company") today announced financial and operational results for its 2023 full year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023.

2023 Full Year Results

  • Total revenue was $2.63 billion in 2023 compared to $2.43 billion in 2022
  • Net loss in 2023 was $59 million compared to net income of $343 million in 2022
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $688 million
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $554 million
  • Capital expenditures totaled $267 million
  • Free cash flow was $293 million, an increase of 173% from 2022
  • Net debt was $1.08 billion as of December 31, 2023

2023 Fourth Quarter Results

  • Total fourth quarter revenue was $489 million compared to $574 million in the third quarter of 2023 
  • Net loss was $97 million compared to a net loss of $18 million in the third quarter of 2023
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $110 million
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $43 million
  • Capital expenditures totaled $33 million
  • Free cash flow was $13 million

Matt Wilks, ProFrac's Executive Chairman, stated, "Our fourth quarter results were challenged, as we expected, due to softness that persisted throughout the second half of the year. Despite lower commodity prices and decreased activity levels, we meaningfully grew our free cash flow generation by 173% for the year and took important steps to position ProFrac for success in 2024 and beyond.

Mr. Wilks added that, "We have been deliberate and intentional with the actions we've taken, both in the second half of 2023 and early in 2024, to enhance ProFrac's position as a leader in the oilfield services industry. Beginning in 2023, we believed it was important to simplify our approach and focus on three key strategic priorities: providing safe, superior services and improving the overall experience for our customers; improving utilization in every aspect of our business; and achieving the lowest operating costs per unit in the industry.

"I am pleased that we have started seeing the impact of this targeted focus in 2024 as we have increased our fleet count for the start of the year with improved pumping efficiencies across all active fleets. To start the year, in January we surpassed our highest pumping efficiency since the fourth quarter of 2022 and in February we pushed the bar even higher as we increased our pumping hours per active fleet to the highest level ever recorded at ProFrac, nearly 20% over our 2023 average. This positive momentum gives us strong confidence that 2024 will be significantly improved over 2023," concluded Mr. Wilks.

Outlook

In the Stimulation Services segment, the Company has activated 10 fleets since the start of the fourth quarter. The higher fleet count, combined with higher expected pumping hours and the cost actions that have been put into place will help offset any pricing pressures and allow for increased profitability levels for 2024.

In the Proppant Production segment, the Company expects modest improvement to mine utilization in the first quarter of 2024 with pricing per ton in the $25 - $30 dollar range, based on metrics to-date. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company expects to further improve utilization to 65-75%.

Business Segment Information

The Stimulation Services segment generated revenues of $2.29 billion for full year 2023, which resulted in $480 million of Adjusted EBITDA. The segment generated revenues of $403 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, which resulted in $58 million of Adjusted EBITDA. Capital expenditures in the Stimulation Services segment totaled $222 million for full year 2023.

The Proppant Production segment generated revenues of $383 million for full year 2023, which resulted in $196 million of Adjusted EBITDA. The segment generated revenues of $93 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, which resulted in $45 million of Adjusted EBITDA. Approximately 30% and 25% of the Proppant Production segment's full year and fourth quarter revenue was intercompany, respectively. Capital expenditures in the Proppant Production segment totaled $41 million for full year 2023.

The Manufacturing segment generated revenues of $176 million for full year 2023, which resulted in $15 million of Adjusted EBITDA. The segment generated revenues of $34 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, which resulted in $2 million of Adjusted EBITDA. Approximately 89% and 83% of the Manufacturing segment's full year and fourth quarter revenue was intercompany, respectively. Capital expenditures in the Manufacturing segment totaled $3 million for full year 2023.

Our Other Business Activities generated revenues of $193 million for the full year 2023, which resulted in ($1.6) million of Adjusted EBITDA. Other Business Activities generated revenues of $44 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, which resulted in $5 million of Adjusted EBITDA. Capital expenditures in the Other Business Activities segment totaled $1 million for full year 2023. The Other Business Activities solely relate to the results of Flotek.

Capital Expenditures and Capital Allocation

Cash capital expenditures in the fourth quarter and full year 2023 totaled $33 million and $267 million, respectively. On a full year basis, this was a reduction of 25% when compared to 2022, which reflects the deferral of the previously announced fleet upgrade program and other growth expenditures due to the market softness experienced in the second half of 2023.

For the full year 2024, the Company expects cash capital expenditures to be between $150 million and $200 million in maintenance related expenditures and roughly an additional $100 million in growth initiatives across all segments. Currently, growth capital expenditures for 2024 are expected to be related to mine improvements and frac fleet upgrades. The Company will continue monitoring market conditions, industry dynamics and customer demand to appropriately align spending levels and growth initiative timelines.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Total net debt outstanding as of December 31, 2023 was $1.08 billion, an increase of approximately $27 million from the third quarter primarily due to fees and expenses related to the refinancing that occurred in December.

Total cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2023 was $25 million, of which $6 million was related to Flotek.

As of December 31, 2023 the Company had $103 million of liquidity, including $19 million in cash and cash equivalents, excluding Flotek, and $83 million of availability under its asset-based credit facility.

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.
