Management Commentary and Outlook
“The compression market outlook remains highly constructive, driven by durable natural gas demand and a structurally tight compression market continuing to support our expectations for robust long-term growth,” said Brad Childers, Archrock’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our Contract Compression business continues to perform at a high level, supported by strong utilization, outstanding profitability and a healthy order book. This demand outlook supports reaffirming 2026 growth capital expenditures of
“We are tightening our full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance to primarily reflect near-term costs, including lube oil and timing impacts. This does not reflect a change in demand fundamentals. We remain confident in the strength of our core business and long-term outlook.
“We are focused on maximizing customer service and operational reliability, supporting critical midstream infrastructure tied to long-term growth in LNG exports and power demand, and maintaining a disciplined, returns-based approach to capital allocation. Our continued dividend increases, including five increases over the past two years, reflect our strong confidence in the durability of our long-term cash flow projections. Archrock has sector-leading balance sheet strength and a growing free cash flow profile, which position us well to support our customers’ long-term natural gas infrastructure needs while continuing to create peer-leading and durable shareholder value,” concluded Childers.

2026 Annual Guidance
Archrock is providing updated annual guidance as listed below. The updated 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance primarily reflects changes in certain assumptions, including an increase in contract compression make-ready costs to put idle equipment back to work, anticipated second-half lube oil cost pressure, reduced customer demand for aftermarket services, which did not experience the typical mid-year seasonal uptick, and higher SG&A expense due to higher long-term incentive compensation primarily driven by stock price increases.

(2) Management believes adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share provide useful information to investors because these non-GAAP measures, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to review our current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons without burdened earnings and earnings per share for non-recurring transactional costs.
(3) Basic and diluted earnings per common share is computed using the two-class method to determine the net income per share for each class of common stock and participating security (restricted stock and stock-settled restricted stock units that have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents) according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Accordingly, we have excluded net income attributable to participating securities from our calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share.
