Recent PROPWR℠ Highlights

Entered into a strategic framework agreement with Caterpillar Inc., securing access to up to approximately 2.1 additional gigawatts of power generation capacity over the next five years which enhances long-term supply visibility and supports PROPWR's continued growth. The Company is now positioned to have approximately 2.6 gigawatts of power generation capacity delivered by year-end 2031.
Engaged in advanced contract negotiations for approximately 100 megawatts to support oil and gas microgrid projects, with deployments expected later this year.
Achieved major advancements representing several hundred megawatts of high-potential data center opportunities, in a select portion of PROPWR's data center commercial pipeline.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is described and reconciled to net income (loss) in the table under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Management Comments

Sam Sledge, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "ProPetro's first quarter results once again demonstrated the resiliency of our business model. Despite weather-related disruptions that impacted activity and profitability, we delivered positive financial results in our completions business, particularly when measured by Adjusted EBITDA less incurred capital expenditures. These results highlight the strength of our industrialized model, which is the result of strategic investments, disciplined asset deployment, and rigorous cost management. The actions we took throughout 2025 to protect our assets and right-size our cost structure are benefiting us today and position us to perform successfully in this market.

With respect to the broader environment, we are still in the early stages of assessing the global and domestic implications of the Iran War. While uncertainty remains, we are starting to see signs of recovery across the broader North American oilfield services sector, given a strengthening commodity backdrop that is driving early pricing and activity tailwinds across our completions business. Importantly, structural tightening in the completions market continues to intensify, driven by ongoing attrition, particularly among smaller less disciplined competitors. This trend was already emerging prior to the onset of the Iran War and has since accelerated with the recent increase in demand for U.S. frac activity. Notably, there was already very little spare frac equipment capacity even before the conflict began, further amplifying current market constraints. These dynamics, combined with ongoing capital investment discipline and pricing discipline, have tempered any plans to expand capacity both within ProPetro and among our close peers in the completions space. Collectively, these factors have created a more constructive supply and demand environment for our business over time.

At the same time, our PROPWR business continues to gain significant momentum, advancing our growth strategy through the recently announced Framework Agreement with Caterpillar and the ongoing expansion of our contracted portfolio. Substantial growth opportunities remain ahead, especially within the rapidly evolving data center sector. We are pleased to report major advancements representing several hundred megawatts of high-potential data center opportunities, in a select portion of our commercial pipeline, further strengthening our presence in the digital infrastructure space.

We now have two powerful engines driving our business forward: an improving completions market, and a rapidly expanding PROPWR platform. As always, we will remain focused on what we can control, cost discipline, operational excellence, and strategic capital deployment. With these strengths, we are confident that ProPetro is well positioned to capitalize on the current tailwinds in the completions business and deliver sustained, long-term earnings growth through PROPWR."

Caleb Weatherl, Chief Financial Officer, commented, "During the first quarter, we maintained the Company's strong financial position through disciplined cost management and our continued focus on capital efficiency. ProPetro's balance sheet and liquidity remain key strengths, providing flexibility to navigate market volatility while continuing to invest to drive profitable growth. In PROPWR, we made meaningful progress during the quarter including securing additional capital to support the business as it scales. Going forward, we will remain proactive in sourcing low-cost capital and flexible financing solutions to support PROPWR's growth, while maintaining a strong balance sheet."

First Quarter 2026 Financial Summary

Revenue was $271 million, compared to $290 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. The 7% decrease in revenue was primarily driven by reduced utilization in the completions business, which was significantly impacted by adverse weather conditions in January 2026.

Cost of services for the first quarter of 2026 were $212 million, excluding approximately $38 million of depreciation and amortization expenses.

General and administrative ("G&A") expense of $27 million was down from $29 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. G&A expense excluding nonrecurring and noncash items of $4 million (stock-based compensation, business acquisition contingent consideration adjustments, retention bonuses and severance expenses) was $23 million, or 8% of revenue, a decrease of 6% as compared to the prior quarter.

Net loss totaled $4 million, or $0.03 loss per diluted share, compared to a net income of $1 million, or $0.01 income per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $36 million from $51 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, primarily due to lower revenues resulting from adverse weather conditions.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $3 million as compared to $81 million in the prior quarter. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower Adjusted EBITDA and working capital headwinds in the first quarter, which consumed approximately $32 million in cash and working capital tailwinds in the prior quarter, which were an approximately $35 million source of cash.

Liquidity and Capital Spending

As of March 31, 2026, cash and cash equivalents were $157 million, and borrowings under the financing agreement with Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation were $112 million. Total liquidity at the end of the first quarter of 2026 was $289 million, which included cash and cash equivalents and $132 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Credit Facility.

During the first quarter of 2026, capital expenditures paid were $43 million and capital expenditures incurred were $85 million, including approximately $14 million primarily supporting maintenance in the Company's completions business and approximately $71 million supporting its PROPWR orders. Notably, the difference between incurred and paid capital expenditures is primarily comprised of PROPWR-related capital expenditures that have been financed and paid directly by the financing partner and unpaid capital expenditures included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Net cash used in investing activities as shown on the statement of cash flows during the first quarter of 2026 was $41 million, which included capital expenditures paid of $43 million, offset by $2 million in proceeds from certain asset sales.

PROPWR Update

Mr. Sledge commented, "PROPWR continued to deliver strong progress and build momentum throughout the quarter, highlighted by our recent announcement of a new strategic framework agreement with Caterpillar. This agreement enables PROPWR to acquire up to approximately 2.1 gigawatts of additional power generation capacity over the next five years. When combined with the approximately 550 megawatts previously ordered, and upon the successful delivery of assets under this agreement, PROPWR is positioned to have approximately 2.6 gigawatts of power generation capacity delivered by year-end 2031 and fully deployed in 2032. This agreement also underscores PROPWR's leadership in deploying innovative energy solutions, and we are excited about the transformative potential it brings to our Company.

To support our upsized order backlog, we have built a robust commercial pipeline. Demand for reliable and low-emission power solutions remains strong, fueling continued growth across the data center, industrial, and oil & gas sectors. As noted earlier in this release, we are pleased to report major advancements representing several hundred megawatts of high-potential data center opportunities, in a select portion of our data center commercial pipeline. While specific details are contingent on finalizing agreements, these developments highlight our expanding leadership and strategic positioning in the digital infrastructure market. Additionally, we are engaged in advanced contract negotiations for approximately 100 megawatts to support oil and gas microgrid projects, with deployments expected later this year. These commercial developments will rapidly expand our total committed capacity beyond the approximately 240 megawatts currently committed under contract.

We are confident in PROPWR's future growth and expect to secure additional contracts throughout 2026 as we extend and deepen relationships with both new and existing partners. The majority of future megawatts are anticipated to be contracted within the data center and industrial sectors, driven by their larger load requirements and long-term strategic commitments. Importantly, our near-term focus also remains on disciplined execution, deploying and scaling PROPWR across our contracted customers, with a strong emphasis on de-risking deployments and building a resilient operational foundation to support sustainable long-term growth and profitability.

As we continue to deploy capital to grow PROPWR, we remain committed to maintaining financial flexibility and a strong balance sheet. Our preferred source of funding continues to be free cash flow generated from our completions business. This is supplemented by our strong balance sheet, proceeds from our recent equity offering and access to flexible financing arrangements including our Caterpillar financing facility and lease financing structures that we have in place. Given the recent increased orders, we will continue to actively pursue low-cost capital and flexible financing solutions to support PROPWR's growth."

Guidance

The Company now anticipates full-year 2026 capital expenditures incurred to be between $540 million and $610 million, up from the $390 million and $435 million range highlighted in the Company's fourth quarter earnings report. Of this, the completions business is expected to account for approximately $140 million to $160 million, including approximately $40 million to $50 million related to planned lease buyouts for a portion of the Company's FORCE^® electric fleet portfolio. As a reminder, the five FORCE^® electric fleet leases were secured with an initial three‑year term and include options to either buy out or extend the leases at the end of that period. The intent behind these leases was to defer upfront capital expenditures while securing the equipment at an attractive cost of capital, supported by the earnings from the FORCE^® electric fleets. This strategy proved successful, enabling the Company to rapidly transform its fleet and still generate accretive cash flow. The Company's current intent to exercise the upcoming lease buyouts reflects the completion of a deliberate and strategic capital allocation decision. By exercising these options, the Company will take full ownership of the FORCE^® fleets. Each buyout will immediately reduce the Company's lease expense, currently reflected in operating expenses, and strengthen its commercial flexibility. The Company currently expects to buy out all five fleets, with buyouts anticipated to begin in late 2026 and continue through 2028. Also, as a reminder, the Completions business guidance range includes capital reserved for refurbishing a portion of the existing Tier IV DGB fleet, investments in fleet automation technology, as well as measured investments in direct drive gas frac units. Investments in the Company's gas-burning equipment portfolio are especially valuable in the current market context. Accelerating demand for these fleets is driven by higher diesel prices and a significant diesel-to-natural gas price discount in the Permian Basin, resulting from the Iran War. This price differential enhances the economic viability of natural gas-powered fleets, making these investments critical for capitalizing on market opportunities and strengthening the company's competitive position.

Additionally, the Company anticipates incurring capital expenditures of approximately $400 million to $450 million for its PROPWR business in 2026. This projected increase is attributable to down payments for future deliveries associated with the recently executed framework agreement with Caterpillar. While these PROPWR capital expenditure estimates reflect the total cost of the equipment, they do not account for the impact of financing arrangements, which are expected to reduce the near-term actual cash outflows or cash capex required from the Company.

For the second quarter, the Company expects to operate approximately 12 active frac fleets, reflecting early signs of recovery and heightened activity in the Permian completions market as the strengthening commodity environment, driven by the ongoing Iran War, begins to support improved pricing and demand across the Company's completions business.

Pertaining to PROPWR, in the first half of 2026, the Company's primary focus is still on the successful deployment and scaling of PROPWR assets across our existing contracted customer base. By emphasizing strong performance and actively de-risking deployments during this period, the Company is positioning PROPWR for long-term growth. This strategic approach is expected to establish a strong operational foundation, enabling PROPWR to begin delivering positive and increasingly meaningful earnings in the second half of 2026, in alignment with the Company's growth objectives.

Outlook

Mr. Sledge concluded, "We recognize the improving completions market, which is benefiting from a stronger commodity environment and recent market dynamics, including the impact of the Iran War. Given current supply and demand fundamentals inside the completions market, we remain confident in our ability to respond to additional commercial opportunities as they arise.

At the same time, PROPWR continues to gain momentum, supported by a robust commercial pipeline and our strategic framework agreement with Caterpillar. Our focus remains on disciplined execution and building a durable platform for long-term growth and value creation. With these strengths, ProPetro is well positioned to deliver sustained performance for our stakeholders."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow for Completions Business are not financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax expense (benefit) and (iii) depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (i) loss (gain) on disposal of assets, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) business acquisition contingent consideration adjustments, (iv) other expense (income), (v) other unusual or nonrecurring (income) expenses such as impairment expenses, costs related to asset acquisitions, insurance recoveries, one-time professional fees and legal settlements and (vi) retention bonus and severance expense. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used in investing activities. We define Free Cash Flow for Completions Business as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used in investing activities plus net cash used in operating activities for PROPWR plus net cash used in investing activities for PROPWR.

We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures 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, and net cash from operating activities is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow for Completions Business. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow or Free Cash Flow for Completions Business in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow for Completions Business may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
