Atlas Energy Solutions Announces Third Quarter 2025 Results and Suspension of Quarterly Common Stock Dividend

About this update from Atlas Energy Solutions Inc.

AUSTIN, Texas, November 03, 2025 --( BUSINESS WIRE )--Atlas Energy Solutions Inc. (NYSE: AESI) ("Atlas" or the "Company") today reported financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. Third Quarter 2025 Highlights John Turner, President & CEO, commented, "Despite an exceptionally weak West Texas completions market, Atlas generated meaningful Adjusted Free Cash Flow, a testament to the strength of our competitive position and cost-advantaged mines and logistics network. These results were achieved despite a challenging third quarter, marked by softer than expected customer demand and higher operating costs at Kermit due to issues with the dredge feed and the wet plant. While market conditions in the Permian completions market are expected to remain challenging, Atlas is well positioned to enhance our market position and generate meaningful Adjusted Free Cash Flow in 2026. In order to maximize our efficiencies and the flow-through to our financial results, we have instituted a company-wide efficiency initiative, targeting $20 million in annualized cost savings. While overall operator activity plans for 2026 remain opaque, we are currently well-positioned to exceed 10 million tons down the Dune Express next year and will have a better grasp of total volumes in the coming months. Our power business has witnessed a rapid expansion of its commercial opportunity set that is now approaching 2 GW in opportunities for permanent power installations in the commercial and industrial, technology, and data center end markets. Based on our current customer dialogues, we are targeting having more than 400 MW deployed across our business by early 2027 with a majority of that under long-term contracts. In line with this target, we have placed an order for 240 MW of power generation assets with a blue-chip equipment provider. This equipment package will feature units with nameplate capacity of 4 MW, and we expect to take possession of these assets in late 2026 with target commissioning in early 2027. The pace at which these projects have been developing has accelerated dramatically over the past quarter, and I would not be surprised to see our target for deployed power generation increase in short order." Bud Brigham, Executive Chairman, said, "Suspending the dividend was a deliberate choice to safeguard our balance sheet’s long-term strength while unlocking the flexibility to capitalize on transformative growth opportunities, especially in our power platform. These prospects have the potential to fundamentally reshape Atlas’s cash flow profile and drive outsized, sustainable value for shareholders." Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results Third quarter 2025 total revenue declined $29.1 million, or 10.1% when compared to the second quarter of 2025, to $259.6 million. Product revenue were lower by $19.5 million, or 15.4% when compared to the second quarter of 2025, to $106.8 million. Third quarter 2025 product revenue volumes were 5.25 million tons, approximately 3.3% less than levels in the second quarter of 2025. Service revenue were down $10.7 million, or 7.3% when compared to the second quarter of 2025, to $135.7 million. Third quarter 2025 rental revenue increased $1.1 million, or 6.9% when compared to second quarter of 2025, to $17.1 million. Third quarter 2025 cost of sales (excluding depreciation, depletion and accretion expense) ("cost of sales") decreased by $0.7 million, or 0.4% when compared to the second quarter of 2025, to $195.2 million. Cost of sales consisted of $66.3 million of plant operating costs, $117.8 million related to service costs, $6.4 million related to rental costs and $4.7 million in royalties. High cost of sales was mainly driven by higher third-party expenses and activities related to the dredge feed and wet shed at our Kermit facility. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2025 increased by $1.9 million when compared to the second quarter of 2025, to $36.3 million. Net (loss) for the third quarter of 2025 was ($23.7) million, and Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 was $40.2 million. Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s total liquidity was $128.9 million, which was comprised of $41.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $87.6 million of availability under the Company’s 2023 ABL Credit Facility.

Volumes for the Sand & Logistics business are currently forecast to be approximately 4.8 million tons as year-end seasonality is only partially offset by new customer additions and a resumption of completion activity from current customers.

Contribution from the Power business is expected to be up slightly due to increased unit deployments.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion and Maintenance Capital Expenditures 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 and Maintenance Capital Expenditures may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.
