John Turner, President & CEO, commented, "Power is where our growth is going, and we are building it contract-first. Our oilfield power division continues to scale and we expect 180 to 200 MWs deployed by the end of this year. In the second quarter we signed our first long-term behind-the-meter contract, for 120 MWs expected to come online at the end of the first quarter of 2027, and we put mobile power on that site immediately to keep the customer running through construction. That is the whole point. Data center customers want one partner to solve the entire power problem, not a generator supplier, and solving it starts on day one rather than the day the permanent plant is finished. Since signing the Global Framework Agreement with Caterpillar, the opportunities in front of us have grown in scale, duration and scope. We are in active negotiations now, and we will announce equipment placements and economics when contracts are signed, not before."

“Atlas’ status as the leading provider of sand and logistics in the West Texas market has positioned us to be selective about the work going forward we secure as the proppant market begins to recover. With the productive capacity of some of our competitors’ mines potentially impaired by lack of sustaining investment, we believe the sand market is currently close to balance and positioned for further tightening in 2027. Atlas is positioning itself to maximize its advantages both for itself and its key customers in a market where we believe supplier execution will be at a premium.”

Bud Brigham, Executive Chairman, said, “Our excitement and optimism in private power lie in the fact that we have the right equipment, the right strategy and, most importantly, the right people. I could not be more excited about the opportunities we are currently working on and sharing more information about those projects in the not-so-distant future when able.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion, Maintenance Capital Expenditures and Adjusted Cash SG&A are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures used by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts and others, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, to assess our consolidated operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of development activities, provide views on capital resources available to organically fund growth projects and, in the case of Adjusted Free Cash Flow, assess the financial performance of our assets and their ability to sustain dividends or reinvest to organically fund growth projects over the long term without regard to financing methods, capital structure, or historical cost basis.

These measures do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion, Maintenance Capital Expenditures and Adjusted Cash SG&A may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.

Non-GAAP Measure Definitions:

• We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before depreciation, depletion and accretion, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, interest expense, income tax expense, stock and unit-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on disposal of assets, insurance recovery (gain), litigation-related costs, net, unrealized commodity derivative gain (loss), other acquisition related costs, and other non-recurring costs. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s consolidated operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period and against our peers without regard to financing method or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Certain prior period litigation-related costs, net are now included as an add-back to Adjusted EBITDA in order to conform to the current period presentation and to more accurately describe the Company’s consolidated operating performance and results period over period.
• We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.
• We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less Maintenance Capital Expenditures. Management believes that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as it provides a measure of the ability of our business to generate cash.
• We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin as Adjusted Free Cash Flow divided by total revenue.
• We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion as Adjusted Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA.
• We define Maintenance Capital Expenditures as capital expenditures excluding growth capital expenditures, reconstruction of previously incurred growth capital expenditures, equipment assets acquired through debt, and asset retirement obligations.
• We define Adjusted Cash SG&A as selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) less stock-based compensation, depreciation in SG&A, non-recurring transaction expenses, and certain litigation expenses and insurance proceeds in SG&A.
