Archrock (NYSE: AROC) Q2 2026 results, long-term contract and updated EBITDA view
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Archrock, Inc. reported second quarter 2026 revenue of $371.2 million, down from $383.2 million a year earlier, while net income increased to $66.7 million and diluted EPS was $0.38 versus $0.36. Adjusted net income was $66.5 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $212.6 million, essentially flat year over year.
Contract operations revenue rose to $329.3 million with a 71% adjusted gross margin and 94.4% horsepower utilization, though aftermarket services revenue declined to $42.0 million due to lower parts sales and reduced major maintenance activity. Archrock highlighted a long‑term agreement with an existing customer covering approximately 665,000 horsepower and reported a leverage ratio of 2.6x, improved from 3.3x, after redeeming $800.0 million of 6.250% senior notes due 2028.
The company raised its quarterly dividend to $0.23 per share (annualized $0.92) with dividend coverage of 3.1x, and reaffirmed 2026 growth capital expenditures of $250–$275 million plus a multi‑year growth capex opportunity of $1.4–$1.6 billion from 2027 through 2030. Full‑year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance was tightened to $865–$885 million from $865–$915 million, reflecting higher make‑ready and lube oil costs, softer aftermarket demand and higher SG&A from incentive compensation.
