John Turner, President & CEO, commented, “During the third quarter, we took significant steps in our methodical approach to building out our behind-the-meter power business. Our plan is simple: secure the equipment, sign the contracts, lock in long-term financing, and deliver. Our CRAs with a leading frontier AI lab and our new $424 million bridge facility have significantly reduced the near-term financing and supply chain risk on the equipment for two significant data center projects we are currently negotiating. Our first behind-the-meter project in Socorro, Texas, remains on track to come online at the end of the first quarter of next year, and it shows what Atlas does best: build quickly, operate reliably, and deploy power where it’s needed.

In our sand business, we made a deliberate choice during the quarter to hold the line on pricing rather than chase uneconomic bids. As expected, that reduced our third quarter sales volumes. Our commercial team has since backfilled those volumes for the fourth quarter and, with line of sight to more than 23 million allocated tons for 2027, we expect sequential improvement across all of our business lines during the fourth quarter.”

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Third quarter 2026 revenue was approximately $267.8 million, comprised of product revenue of $97.9 million, service revenue of $140.8 million and power rental revenue of $29.1 million. Total proppant sales volume during the quarter were 5.4 million tons. Our average sales price for proppant for the third quarter was approximately $16.93 per ton. Included in our product revenue during the period is roughly $3.5 million of power equipment sales and $2.8 million of logistics related sales.

Third quarter costs of sales (excluding DD&A) were $215.5 million, consisting of $72.1 million in proppant plant and logistics operating costs, $2.1 million from power equipment costs, $128.7 million of service costs, $8.8 million in rental costs, and $3.8 million in royalties. Within our logistics operating costs, we also recognized $1.4 million during the quarter tied to the cessation of operations in a particular region.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2026 were $38.8 million.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2026 was $45.1 million, and Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2026 was $30.3 million.

Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other

As of September 30, 2026, the Company’s total liquidity was $116.7 million, which was comprised of $22.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $94.4 million of availability under the Company’s 2023 ABL Credit Facility.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into a $424.0 million senior secured bridge facility and as of October 23, 2026, the Company’s estimated total liquidity was $499.4 million, which was comprised of $152.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, $252.8 million of availability under the bridge facility that is designated for certain purchase obligations and $94.4 million of availability under the Company’s 2023 ABL Credit Facility.

the impact of geopolitical developments and tensions, war and uncertainty in oil-producing countries (including the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, the ongoing conflict involving Iran and disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, continued instability in the Middle East, the recent events in Venezuela and any related political or economic responses and counter-responses or otherwise by various global actors or the general effect on the global economy); health epidemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, natural disasters or inclement or hazardous weather conditions, including but not limited to cold weather, droughts, flooding, tornadoes and the physical impacts of climate change; physical, electronic and cybersecurity breaches; the effects of litigation; plans, objectives, expectations and intentions described in this press release that are not historical; and other factors discussed or referenced in our filings made from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026 and any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

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 Adjusted Cash SG&A, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin 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, Adjusted Cash SG&A, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Adjusted Gross Margin 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 and certain non-recurring costs 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. Certain prior period capital expenditures were reclassified 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 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.

  • We define Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit (loss) plus depreciation, depletion and accretion expense.

  • We define Adjusted Gross Margin as Adjusted Gross Profit divided by total revenue.
