ProFrac Holding Corp. Reports First Quarter 2026 Results
WILLOW PARK, TX – May 7, 2026 – ProFrac Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: ACDC) (“ProFrac”, or the “Company”) today announced financial and operational results for its 2026 first quarter ended March 31, 2026.
First Quarter 2026 Results
| · | Total revenue was $450 million compared to fourth quarter revenue of $437 million |
| · | Net loss was $81 million compared to net loss of $141 million in the fourth quarter |
| · | Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $54 million compared to $61 million in the fourth quarter; 12% of revenue in the first quarter compared to 14% of revenue in the fourth quarter |
| · | Net cash provided by operating activities was $9 million compared to $50 million in the fourth quarter |
| · | Capital expenditures totaled $41 million compared to $37 million in the fourth quarter |
| · | Free cash flow² negative $25 million compared to $14 million in the fourth quarter |
“Our first quarter 2026 results exceeded expectations despite weather-related disruptions early in the period, which reduced Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $9 million,” stated Executive Chairman, Matt Wilks. “While the quarter got off to a slow start, market dynamics shifted meaningfully beginning in late February-early March, with improving operator sentiment and accelerating activity levels. Our Stimulation Services team delivered record efficiency levels in March. This demonstrates the strength of our operational execution and allowed us to exit the quarter with continued momentum. Given the inflection in utilization, strong efficiencies and limited available capacity, we are in active dialogues with operators regarding balanced pricing following a persistent period of declines.”
“We are also pleased to report strong progress on our business optimization program. On a year-over-year basis and including capital expenditure reduction in the fourth quarter of 2025, we have achieved the majority of our $100 million annualized savings target. Alongside these efforts, our continued focus on technology differentiation further strengthens our value proposition for customers.”
“Geopolitical events continue to influence the broader energy landscape,” continued Mr. Wilks. “The conflict in the Middle East has created supply disruptions that we believe extend beyond near-term dislocations. Energy infrastructure for both crude oil and LNG have been severely impacted further exacerbating dislocations in the physical markets. These dynamics, coupled with the prolonged nature of the conflict in Iran and shuttering of the Strait of Hormuz, are catalyzing a global shift in sentiment in favor of energy security. We believe this will disproportionately benefit North America. At the same time, industry activity has been running below levels needed to maintain flat shale production. As operator activity continues to accelerate, we see an increasingly constructive supply-demand backdrop for services in North America, especially as we enter the second half of 2026,” concluded Mr. Wilks.
Outlook
In Stimulation Services, ProFrac expects second quarter 2026 results to be stronger than first quarter 2026 performance, as improving operator sentiment has driven an increase in activity levels. The Company’s hydraulic fracturing calendar has continued to tighten from first quarter levels.
In Proppant Production, the Company remains focused on operational execution, cost efficiency, and reliability across its proppant assets. While industry completion activity is expected to increase, due to operational issues and unplanned downtime, the Company expects sequentially lower volumes in second quarter of 2026.
Business Segment Information
The Stimulation Services segment generated revenues of $407 million in the first quarter, which resulted in $32 million of Adjusted EBITDA and a margin of 8%.
The Proppant Production segment generated revenues of $120 million in the first quarter, which resulted in $7 million of Adjusted EBITDA and a margin of 6%. Approximately 88% of the Proppant Production segment's first quarter 2026 revenue was intercompany.
The Manufacturing segment generated revenues of $48 million in the first quarter, which resulted in $7 million of Adjusted EBITDA and a margin of 15%. Approximately 86% of the Manufacturing segment's first quarter 2026 revenue was intercompany.
Flotek Industries, Inc. ("Flotek") generated revenues of $72 million in the first quarter, which resulted in $11 million of Adjusted EBITDA and a margin of 15%. Approximately 75% of Flotek's first quarter 2026 revenue was intercompany.
Other Business Activities generated revenues of $3 million in the first quarter, which resulted in $(0.1) million of Adjusted EBITDA and a margin of (3)%.
Capital Expenditures and Capital Allocation
Cash capital expenditures totaled $41 million in the first quarter, up from $37 million reported in fourth quarter 2025.
For full year 2026, ProFrac maintains its expectation that capital expenditures will be in the range of $155 million to $185 million, which includes Flotek's current capital expenditure plan. Excluding Flotek, the Company expects capital expenditures to be in a range of $145 million to $175 million for 2026.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
Total principal debt outstanding as of March 31, 2026 was approximately $1.09 billion; net debt3 outstanding was approximately $1.05 billion.
Total cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026 was approximately $34 million, of which approximately $6 million was related to Flotek and not accessible by the Company.
As of March 31, 2026 the Company had approximately $108 million of liquidity, including approximately $28 million of cash and cash equivalents, excluding Flotek, and $80 million of availability under its asset-based credit facility.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as a substitute for net income (loss), net cash from operating activities, or GAAP measurements of debt, 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, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt 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 believe Net Debt is an important supplemental measure of indebtedness for management and investors because it provides a more complete understanding of our leverage position and borrowing capacity after factoring in cash and cash equivalents.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net income (loss), before (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income taxes, (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization, (iv) loss or gain on disposal of assets, net, (v) stock-based compensation, and (vi) other charges, such as certain credit losses, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, unrealized loss or gain on investments, acquisition and integration expenses, litigation expenses and accruals for legal contingencies, acquisition earnout adjustments, severance charges, goodwill impairments, gains on insurance recoveries, transaction costs, third-party supply commitment charges, lease termination costs, and impairments of long-lived assets. 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.
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.
Net Debt is defined as total debt plus unamortized debt discounts, premiums, and issuance costs less cash and cash equivalents. Total debt is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Net Debt. Net Debt should not be considered as an alternative to total debt. Net Debt has important limitations as a measure of indebtedness because it does not represent the total amount of indebtedness of the Company.
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, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated.
