Filing Explained

ProFrac retains disclosed shared power over 54.5% of Flotek, but 2,184,140 shares in that figure remain issuable under warrants.

After the disclosed transfer, ProFrac GDM reports 3,693,194 directly owned shares, or 10.2%, while the affiliated reporting persons collectively report 20,937,915 shares and shared voting and dispositive power, or 54.5%.

The 54.5% ownership figure includes 2,184,140 shares issuable upon exercise of prefunded warrants, in addition to 15,060,581 shares directly owned by ProFrac Holdings II and 3,693,194 directly owned by ProFrac GDM; the filing therefore does not present all reported beneficial ownership as currently issued shares.

beneficially own financial
"may be deemed to beneficially own, and may be deemed to have shared power"
Beneficially own means having the economic rights and risks of a security—such as the right to receive dividends, sell the shares, or profit from price changes—whether or not your name appears on the official share register. Think of it like renting a car: you use it and reap the benefits even if the title lists someone else. Investors care because beneficial ownership determines who truly controls value, must be disclosed under securities rules, and can signal potential influence or trading activity that affects a stock’s price.
Prefunded Warrants financial
"shares of Common Stock issuable to ProFrac Holdings II upon exercise of the June 2022 Prefunded Warrants"
Prefunded warrants are a security that gives the holder the right to convert the warrant into a share after paying a very small remaining amount because almost the full purchase price was paid upfront. They matter to investors because exercising them increases the company’s outstanding shares (dilution) and can provide immediate cash to the issuer while allowing holders to bypass ownership limits or simplify timing, similar to buying a nearly-complete gift card that only needs a tiny top-up to use.
Term Loan Credit Agreement financial
"under that certain Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated December 27, 2023, by and among Alpine Holding II, LLC"
A term loan credit agreement is a formal contract where a borrower receives a fixed sum of money from a lender and agrees to repay it over a set period with interest, much like a multi‑year mortgage or car loan for a business. It matters to investors because the size, cost and rules of the loan affect a company’s cash flow, risk of default and ability to invest or pay dividends; restrictive conditions can also force operational changes.
shared dispositive power financial
"may be deemed to have shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of"
make-whole amount financial
"the 2026 Term Loans (including any prepayment premium or make-whole amount) were deemed repaid in full"
A make-whole amount is the cash payment a borrower must give investors when it pays off a bond or loan early, designed to compensate them for lost future interest. Think of it like an early-termination fee that equals the current value of the remaining scheduled payments (often calculated using a set interest rate) so investors are put “made whole”; it matters because it changes how costly early refinancing is and affects bond values and investor returns.
