NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

(unaudited)Description of Business

1. Organization and description of business

The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein are those of ProFrac Holdings, LLC (“ProFrac LLC”) and its subsidiaries, which include Best Pump & Flow LP (“Best Flow”) and Alpine Silica, LLC (“Alpine”). ProFrac LLC, on a consolidated basis, is the predecessor to ProFrac Holding Corp. and is referred to herein as “ProFrac Predecessor,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company.” Prior to December 21, 2021, Dan Wilks and Farris Wilks (or entities they control) (collectively, the “Wilks”) held a controlling interest in each of ("ProFrac LLC, Best Flow and Alpine. Historical periods for ProFrac Predecessor had been presented on a consolidated and combined basis given the common control ownership by the Wilks. On December 21, 2021, all of the then-outstanding membership interests in Best Flow and Alpine were contributed to ProFrac LLC in exchange for membership interests in ProFrac LLC. Accordingly, the results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 have been retrospectively adjusted to present the operations of ProFrac LLC, Best Flow and Alpine on a combined basis. The acquisitions of Best Flow and Alpine have been accounted for in a manner consistent with the pooling of interest method of accounting, as the transaction was a combination of entities under common control. Under this method of accounting, the statements of operations, equity and cash flows have been adjusted to include all activities of the commonly controlled groups for all periods in which common control existed.

ProFrac PredecessorCorp.") is a vertically integrated and innovation-driven energy services company providing hydraulic fracturing, completion services and other complementary products and services to leading upstream oil and natural gas companies engaged in the exploration and production (“E&P”) of North American unconventional oil and natural gas resources. The ProFrac Predecessor operatesWe operate in 3three business segments: stimulation services, manufacturing, and proppant production.

ProFrac Holding Corp. was incorporated as a Delaware corporation August 17, 2021, to become a holding corporation for ProFrac Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries upon completion of a corporate reorganization in conjunction with a planned initial public offering (“IPO”). On May 12, 2022, ProFrac Holding Corp. completed its IPO of 16,000,000 shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock") at a public offering price of $18.00 per share.On June 6, 2022, an over-allotment option was exercised resulting in an additional 2,228,153 shares of Class A Common Stock being priced at $18.00 per share. The IPO and exercise of the over-allotment option generated combined net proceeds of $303.9 million, after deducting underwriter discounts and commissions and estimated offering costs. The Company used $72.9 million of the net proceeds to redeem the membership ownership interests from the then-existing owners of THRC FTSI Related Equity (as described in Note 11 Acquisitions and Investments) and contributed the remaining proceeds to ProFrac Holdings, LLC. The Company used the remaining proceeds (i) to pay down $143.8 million of the outstanding borrowings under the New Term Loan Credit Facility (as defined herein) (ii) to fully pay the $22.0 million of the outstanding borrowings of The Back Stop Note (as defined herein) (iii) pay down $22.0 million of the outstanding borrowings of the Closing Date Note (as defined herein) (iv) to pay down $20.8 million of the outstanding borrowings of the Equify Bridge Note (as defined herein) and (v) with the remaining proceeds to be used for general corporate uses and additional repayment of debt.

Concentrations of Risk

Our business activities are concentrated in the accompanying unauditedwell completion services segment of the oilfield services industry in the United States. The market for these services is cyclical, and we depend on the willingness of our customers to make operating and capital expenditures to explore for, develop, and produce oil and natural gas in the United States. The willingness of our customers to undertake these activities depends largely upon prevailing industry conditions that are predominantly influenced by current and expected prices for oil and natural gas. Historically, a low commodity-price environment has caused our customers to significantly reduce their hydraulic fracturing activities and the prices they are willing to pay for those services. During these periods, these customer actions materially adversely affected our business, financial statements. Operatingcondition and results forof operations.

New Accounting Standards to be Adopted

No new accounting pronouncements issued or effective during the three-monthsthree month period ended March 31, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022. The December 31, 2021, balance sheet information has been derived from the 2021 audited financial statements.

Table of Contents

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and (2) the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We base these estimates on historical results and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable, all of which form the basis for making estimates concerning the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources.It is at least reasonably possible these estimates could be revised in the near term, and these revisions could be material.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the arrangement. To the extent that we determine an arrangement represents a lease, we classify that lease as an operating lease2023 have had or a finance lease. We capitalize operating and finance leases on our consolidated balance sheets through a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding lease liability. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. See Note 9 – Leases for additional information.

Operating and finance lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s products and services are sold based upon contracts with customers. The Company recognizes revenue as it satisfies performance obligations by transferring control over a service or product to a customer. Payment terms are specified in each customer agreement and are typically a specific number of days following satisfaction of the performance obligation. The following are descriptions of the principal activities of each reportable segment from which the Company generates its revenue.

Stimulation services.    We generate revenue through the provision of hydraulic fracturing services, which involves the injection of water, sand and chemicals under high pressure into formations to optimize hydrocarbon flow paths during the completion phase of wellbores. Our contracts with customers are short term in nature, typically less than four weeks, and have a single performance obligation, which is the contracted total stages, satisfied over time. Once a stage has been completed, a field ticket is created which includes charges for services performed and any inputs consumed during the service. The signing of the field ticket by a customer representative represents their acceptance of the service and agreement to the amounts to which the Company has the right to invoice and recognize as revenue. We believe that recognizing revenue based on actual stages completed, upon receipt of a signed field ticket, appropriately depicts how our hydraulic fracturing services are transferred to our customers over time.

Manufacturing.    We generate revenue through sales of equipment used to perform oilfield services. The performance obligation is satisfied and revenues are recognized at the point-in-time that control of goods are transferred to the customer, generally upon shipment from our manufacturing facility. Payment terms are specified in each customer agreement and are typically a specific number of days following satisfaction of the performance obligation.

Proppant production.    We generate revenue through the sale of frac sand to oilfield service providers and E&P companies. The performance obligation is satisfied and revenue is recognized at the point-in-time that control of the product is transferred to the customer, generally upon shipment from our facility. We charge our customers on a per-ton basis at current market prices. Payment terms are specified in each customer agreement and are typically a specific number of days following satisfaction of the performance obligation.

Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and are therefore excluded from revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.

Business Combinations

Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. The excess, if any, of the acquisition price over the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. For significant acquisitions, we utilize third-party appraisal firms to assist us in determining the fair values for certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The measurement of these fair values requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions which are inherently uncertain.

Adjustments to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are made until we obtain all relevant information regarding the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date (the “measurement period”), not to exceed one year from the date of

Table of Contents

the acquisition. We recognize measurement-period adjustments in the period in which we determine the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts we would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.

See Note 11 — Acquisitions and Investments for information on acquisitions completed during the historical period.

Variable Interest Entities

We evaluate our ownership, contractual and other interest in entities to determine if they are variable interest entities (“VIE”). We evaluate whether we have a variable interest in those entities and the nature and extent of those interests. Based on our evaluation, if we determine we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we consolidate the entity in our financial statements.

Fair value measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at a measurement date. We apply the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases of categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1: The use of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1, inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. At March 31, 2022, we had no Level 2 measurements.

Level 3: The use of significant unobservable inputs that typically require the use of management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing. See Note 12 — Fair Value of Financial Interests for more information on our investments using Level 3 measurements.

Our current assets and liabilities contain financial instruments, the most significant of which are trade accounts receivable and payable. We believe the carrying value of our current assets and liabilities approximate fair value. Our fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including: (i) the short-term duration of the instruments and (ii) our historical incurrence of and expectations of future bad debt expense. The book value of our floating rate debt approximates fair value because of its floating rate structure.

Income taxes

At March 31, 2022, the ProFrac Predecessor entities were organized as limited liability companies or a limited partnership and were treated as either a disregarded entity or a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, whereby the ordinary business income or loss and certain deductions were passed-through and reported on the members’ income tax returns. As such, the ProFrac Predecessor was not required to account for U.S. federal income taxes in the consolidated financial statements. Certain state income-based taxes are imposed on the ProFrac Predecessor entities which are reflected as income tax expense or benefit in historical periods.

In connection with the IPO in May 2022 (see Note 15 – Subsequent Events), ProFrac Predecessor became partially owned by ProFrac Holding Corp., a U.S. Internal Revenue Code Subchapter C corporation (“C-Corporation”). ProFrac Holding Corp. is a taxable entity and will be required to account for income taxes under the asset and liability method beginning in the second quarter of 2022.

Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled pursuant to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts more-likely-than-not to be realized.

Recently adopted accounting standards

On January 1, 2022, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) accounting standards update for “Leases,” which amended existing guidance to require lessees to recognize liabilities and ROU assets on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by long-term leases and to disclose additional quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements.

9


Table of Contents

We adopted this guidance using a modified retrospective approach on January 1, 2022 using the transition method that allows a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.

We have completed our process to implement this standard, and we have designed processes and internal controls necessary for adoption of this standard. We have made policy elections to (i) not capitalize short-term leases for all asset classes, (ii) not separate non-lease components from lease components for all of our existing asset classes, (iii) apply the package of practical expedients that allows us to not reassess: whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases, lease classification for any expired or existing leases and initial direct costs for existing leases and (iv) apply the practical expedient to apply hindsight in estimating lease term and impairment.   

The impact of applying this standard is not expected to significantly impact our results of operations or cash flows. As of January 1, 2022, we recognized ROU assets and liabilities of approximately $35.8 million from operating leases on our consolidated balance sheet. See Note 9 - Leases for additional disclosures related to our adoption this accounting standards update.

New accounting standards to be adopted

We have not yet implemented FASB ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The ASU introduces a new accounting model, the Current Expected Credit Losses model (“CECL”), which requires recognition of credit losses and additional disclosures related to credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. This model replaces the multiple existing impairment models previously used under GAAP, which generally require that a loss be incurred before it is recognized. The new standard also applies to financial assets arising from revenue transactions such as contract assets and accounts receivable.

Implementation is currently required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company does not believe implementation will have a material impact on its financial statements.

We have not yet implemented FASB ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 under GAAP. The new guidance also improves the application of income tax-related guidance and simplifies GAAP for franchise taxes that are partially based on income, transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill, separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax, and enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on itsour unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS

3. RestrictedOn January 3, 2023, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interest of Producers Service Holdings LLC (“Producers”), an employee-owned pressure pumping services provider serving Appalachia and the Mid-Continent, for a total purchase consideration of $36.5 million, consisting of (i) Class A common stock valued at $12.9 million based on the acquisition date closing price of $21.40; (ii) cash consideration of $1.4 million; (iii) an estimated amount payable of $8.3 million related to our preliminary calculation of working capital adjustments; and (iv) our pre-existing investment of $13.9 million. Throughout the first quarter of 2023, we integrated Producers' operations. As a result, we track all stimulation services assets as one group and it would be impracticable to separately report Producers' revenues or pretax earnings subsequent to the acquisition.

On February 24, 2023, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests in (i) Performance Proppants, LLC, (ii) Red River Land Holdings, LLC, (iii) Performance Royalty, LLC, (iv) Performance Proppants International, LLC, and (v) Sunny Point Aggregates, LLC (together, “Performance Proppants”) for a total purchase consideration of $464.8 million, consisting of (i) Class A common stock valued at $6.2 million based on the acquisition date closing price of $19.67; (ii) cash consideration of $454.4 million; and (iii) the settlement of a pre-existing receivable of $4.2 million. Performance Proppants is a frac sand provider in the Haynesville basin. We recognized revenues of $22.7 million and a pretax income of $7.4 million related to the Performance Proppants acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

We accounted for these acquisitions as business combinations. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents,reflects pro forma revenues and restricted cash reported within the consolidated statement of cash flows as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021:

Intangible assets are amortized over the period the Company expects the asset to generate cash flows. As such, we amortize each electric frac license through the remaining license period, beginning when the initial fleet built under each license is placed into service, a period we estimate to be 17 years. For technology acquired during 2021, we estimated this period to be seven years. For technology acquired in 2022 related to the Performance Proppants acquisition represent customer relationships and the fair value was determined using the with-and-without method which is an income approach and considers the time needed to rebuild the customer base.

The amounts allocated to goodwill are attributable to the organized workforce and potential or expected synergies. The goodwill for Producers and Performance Proppants was recognized in the stimulation services and proppant production segments, respectively. We estimate that substantially all of FTS International Inc., we estimated the periodgoodwill will be deductible for income tax purposes.

The amounts included in the table above are preliminary with respect to be three years. Amortization expense relatedaccruals and working capital adjustments and include the use of estimates based on information that was available at the time these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared. We believe that the estimates used are reasonable; however, the estimates are subject to intangible assets was $0.4 millionchange as additional information becomes available.

8. Income taxes

At March 31, 2022, the ProFrac Predecessor entities were organized as limited liability companies or a limited partnership and were treated as either a disregarded entity or a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, whereby the ordinary business income or loss and certain deductions were passed-through and reported on the members’ income tax returns. As such, the ProFrac Predecessor was not required to account for U.S. federal income taxes in the consolidated financial statements. Certain state income-based taxes are imposed on the ProFrac Predecessor entities which are reflected as income tax expense or benefit in historical periods. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, federal and state tax expense was $0.8 million, compared with $25,000 of tax benefit in the three months ended March 31, 2021.NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In connection with the IPO in May 2022 (see Note 15 – Subsequent Events), ProFrac Predecessor became partially owned by ProFrac Holding Corp., a C-Corporation. ProFrac Holding Corp. is a taxable entity and will be required to account for income taxes under the asset and liability method beginning in the second quarter of 2022.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, ProFrac Predecessor and its members completed the acquisition of FTSI, a C-Corporation.  Through a series of transactions, ProFrac Predecessor obtained ownership of all of the assets and liabilities of FTSI, but the FTSI C-Corporation legal entity was owned by the ProFrac Predecessor members. In connection with the IPO, the FTSI C-Corporation legal entity merged with a subsidiary of ProFrac Holding Corp., which inherited the tax attributes of the FTSI legal entity.

We estimate that ProFrac Holding Corp. will have significant deferred tax assets as a result of the tax attributes it inherited from the FTSI legal entity, however, we anticipate recording a full valuation allowance on ProFrac Holding Corp.’s net deferred tax assets based on our assessment that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. A change in these assumptions could cause a decrease to the valuation allowance, which could materially impact our results of operations.

9. Leases

Effective January 1, 2022, we adopted the new lease accounting guidance under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases. The details of the significant changes to our accounting policies resulting from the adoption of the new lease standard are set out below. We adopted the standard using the optional modified retrospective transition method; accordingly, the comparative information as of December 31, 2021, has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under the previous lease standard. Under the new standard, assets and liabilities that arise from all leases are required to be recognized on the balance sheet for lessees. Previously, only capital leases, which are now referred to as finance leases, were recorded on the balance sheet. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recognition of approximately $35.8 million of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Beginning January 1, 2022, for all leases with a term in excess of 12 months, we recognized a lease liability equal to the present value of the lease payments and right-of-use asset representing our right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For operating leases, lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and accretion of the lease liability, while finance leases (of which we have none) include both an operating expense and an interest expense component. For all leases with a term of 12 months or less, we elected the practical expedient to not recognize lease assets and liabilities. We recognize lease expense for these short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We are a lessee for several operating leases, related primarily to real estate and light duty vehicles. The majority of our operating leases have remaining lease terms of 10 years or less. None of our leases include options to extend the leases, nor do any include options to terminate the leases. The accounting for leases may require judgment, which includes determining the incremental borrowing rates to utilize in our net present value calculation of lease payments for lease agreements which do not provide an implicit rate.

In connection with the completion of the FTSI Acquisition (as defined below), FTSI conveyed to Wilks Development, LLC, an affiliate of ProFrac LLC, substantially all of FTSI’s owned real property, consisting primarily of FTSI’s hydraulic fracturing equipment manufacturing facilities, in exchange for cash consideration of approximately $44.4 million (the “FTSI Sale Leaseback”). We will lease such real property from Wilks Development, LLC in exchange for aggregate monthly lease payments of $51.6 million through March 2032. The cash consideration received was $3.7 million less than the carrying value of these assets. Because this sale was to an affiliate under common control, we accounted for the $3.7 million as an equity transaction recorded as a deemed distribution within our consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Our leasing activities primarily consist of operating leases for administrative offices, manufacturing and maintenance facilities along with some light duty vehicles. We do not lease any equipment on a long-term basis.

Additionally, in January and February of 2021, ProFrac LLC executed two agreements with one of ProFrac LLC’s members for the sale of certain lots of equipment, in exchange for $8.7 million in cash, an amount that approximates the net book value of the assets. Under these agreements, for any assets subsequently resold by the member, ProFrac LLC will reimburse the member for a certain percentage of the net loss, or conversely be entitled to a certain percentage of the net gain, at rates established in the agreements. As of March 31, 2022, the majority of the assets have been sold by the member, and ProFrac LLC’s remaining liability of approximately $0.2 million for assets that have not been resold has been recorded.

On February 4, 2022, THRC Holdings entered into a Rights Agreement with Encantor Properties LP, one of the sellers from whom the Company purchased the Munger Ranch property, under which the related party was assigned rights to $8.1 million of the $30.0 million in consideration related to the Munger purchase. As part of the IPO completed in May 2022, the sellers of Munger Ranch were issued 2,114,273 shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for the $30.0 million consideration related to the Munger Ranch purchase. See Note 15 – Subsequent Events.

11. Acquisitions and investments

FTS International, Inc.

On March 4, 2022, the Company acquired the outstanding stock of FTSI for a purchase price of $405.7 million, consisting of cash consideration of $332.8 million, and THRC Holdings’ equity interest of $72.9 million (“THRC FTSI Related Equity”) (collectively the “FTSI Acquisition”).

The THRC FTSI Related Equity was the result of a transaction whereby THRC Holdings, which owned approximately 19.5% of FTSI, agreed to retain that interest in FTSI in lieu of receiving cash pursuant to the FTSI Merger Agreement. Immediately following the closing of the cash acquisition pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 21, 2021, by and among FTSI, ProFrac LLC and ProFrac Acquisitions, Inc. (the “FTSI Merger Agreement”), ProFrac LLC distributed the 80.5% of the FTSI equity it acquired in such merger to Farris Wilks and THRC Holdings in a manner that resulted in each of them owning 50% of FTSI (the “FTSI Distribution”), with THRC Holdings receiving a smaller share of the FTSI Distribution and instead retaining certain preferred equity in ProFrac LLC in lieu of its redemption in connection with such distribution.

We have accounted for the acquisition of FTSI using the acquisition method of accounting. We used our best estimates and assumptions to assign fair value to the tangible and intangible assets expected to be acquired and liabilities expected to be assumed at the acquisition date. The majority of the measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 inputs.

The allocation of the purchase price to FTSI’s net tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets as of March 4, 2022, is preliminary and subject to revisions to the fair value calculations for the identifiable assets and liabilities. The determination and allocation of the purchase consideration are subject to change during the measurement period, up to one year from the date the acquisition closed.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, our revenues and pretax earnings included $48.6 million and $0.1 million loss, respectively, associated with the FTSI acquired operations after the closing on March 4, 2022. In addition, FTSI Acquisition-related costs of approximately $3.7 million were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022, consisting of external legal and consulting fees. These costs are classified in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, we incurred $9.3 million in severance costs in connection with the FTSI Acquisition, which are classified in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

The following unaudited pro forma results of operations have been prepared as though the FTSI acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2021. Pro forma amounts are based on the purchase price allocation of the significant acquisition and are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported in the future.

Flotek Industries, Inc.

On February 2, 2022, we entered into an agreement with Flotek Industries, Inc. (“Flotek”), pursuant to which Flotek will provide full downhole chemistry solutions for a minimum of 10 hydraulic fleets for three years starting on April 1, 2022, at a price of cost plus 7% (“Flotek Supply Agreement”). In exchange for entry into the Flotek Supply Agreement, we received $10 million in initial principal amount of notes that are convertible into Flotek common stock (“Convertible Notes”) and acquired an additional $10 million in principal amount of Convertible Notes in a related private offering transaction. Our equity ownership in Flotek on a fully diluted basis as a result of this investment is approximately 17%. In addition, we are permitted to designate up to2 new directors to Flotek’s board of directors.

On February 16, 2022, we and Flotek agreed to amend the Flotek Supply Agreement to increase the term to ten years and increase the scope to 30 fleets. In exchange for our entry into the amendment to the Flotek Supply Agreement (the “Flotek Supply Agreement Amendment”), Flotek agreed to issue us $50 million in initial principal amount of Convertible Notes that will be convertible into

21


Table of Contents

Flotek common stock. The Flotek Supply Agreement Amendment and issuance to us of additional Flotek Convertible Notes are conditioned upon customary closing conditions including the approval of Flotek’s shareholders. In May 2022, the Flotek shareholders approved the Convertible Notes issuance and the Flotek Supply Agreement Amendment. See Note 15 – Subsequent Events. Our equity ownership in Flotek on a fully diluted basis after the consummation of these transactions is approximately 43%, and we will be permitted to designate 2 additional directors, or up to 4 new directors to Flotek’s board of directors.

The Flotek Supply Agreement Amendment includes a minimum annual volume commitment whereby we will be obligated to pay Flotek liquidated damages equal to 25% of the shortfall for such year, should we fail to meet the minimum purchase amount.

The notes issued to ProFrac accrue paid-in-kind interest at a rate of 10% per annum, have a maturity of one year, and convert into common stock of Flotek (a) at the holder’s option at any time prior to maturity, at a price of $1.088125 per share, (b) at Flotek’s option, if the volume-weighted average trading price of Flotek’s common stock equals or exceeds $2.50 for 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day period, or (c) at maturity, at a price of $0.8705 (the “Convertible Notes”). We initially recognized the Convertible Notes with an initial principal balance of $20 million at $20 million.

We have designated our investment in the Convertible Notes as trading securities. Securities designated as trading securities are reported at fair value, with gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value recognized in net investment income on the consolidated statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized noncash income of $8.1 million as other (expense) income on our consolidated statements of operations related to the change in fair value of the Convertible Notes. The Company had an investment of $28.1 million in Flotek as of March 31, 2022, a Level 3 fair value measurement. See Note 12 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments for more information on our investments using Level 3 measurements.

Basin Production and Completion LLC

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company purchased Series B-1 Preferred Units of Basin Production and Completion LLC (“BPC”), a manufacturer of equipment used in hydraulic fracturing for $4.2 million. This comprises approximately 20% of the BPC Series B Preferred Units. As of December 31, 2021, we did not exercise significant influence over this entity. As we determined this to be an equity security, we initially recorded our investment at cost, presented as “Investments” in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021.

On February 9, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase all the series A-1 & B-1 preferred units of BPC for $46.0 million (“Basin Units Acquisition”), consisting of $40.0 million to BPC for series A-1 & B-1 preferred units and $6.0 million to selling holders of BPC series B-1 preferred units. Additionally, on February 14, 2022, the Company made a loan to FHE USA LLC, a subsidiary of BPC for $1.25 million. The loan bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum. Interest is either paid at each calendar quarter end or added to the principal balance at the election of BPC.  The loan matures on February 14, 2027. The Company had an investment of $50.2 million in BPC as of March 31, 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, our investments in BPC provide the Company the ability to have significant influence, but not control over BPC’s operations. BPC's business and affairs are managed under the direction of its board of directors, which the Company does not control. Based on our evaluation, we determined that BPC is a VIE, but the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. We have elected the fair value option to account for our equity method investment in BPC. See Note 12 — Fair Value of Financial Interests for more information on our investments using Level 3 measurements.

EKU

On December 22, 2020, the Company purchased a 25% stake in EKU, an equipment manufacturer based in Germany, for $1.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 2020, we accounted for this investment using the equity method as we had significant influence over EKU, and held a voting interest of 20% or greater, but less than 50%. In January 2021, the Company obtained a controlling interest in EKU, the results of which are consolidated thereafter.

The Company obtained a 75% controlling interest in EKU in January 2021 and performed a purchase price allocation in conjunction with the consolidation of this subsidiary. We recognized net working capital of $2.5 million, property, plant and equipment of $0.4 million, intangible assets of $3.5 million and debt of $1.4 million at estimated fair value. In consolidation, we eliminated our investment in associate, recognized equity of $3.7 million for the value of our 75% interest, and noncontrolling interest of $1.2 million for the value of the minority shareholder positions. See Note 6 – Intangible Assets for additional information related to the recognized intangible assets.

Munger RanchLitigation

The Company entered into an agreement to acquire property in West Texas (“Munger Right Agreement”) in November 2021 for a purchase price of $30.0 million. Under the Munger Right Agreement, the sellers were given the option to receive the consideration in cash, or in the event of an IPO prior to November 17, 2022, in equity, at the sellers’ election. Under the equity option, in the event the Company completes an IPO, the sellers would be entitled to 1.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock immediately following the IPO. Each seller initially elected the equity option, as such this was a non-cash transaction for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Munger Right Agreement includes a ‘Make Whole’ provision. Under the Make Whole provision, if any seller liquidates 100% of the Class A shares they are issued prior to the one-year anniversary of the IPO, then the company will pay the difference between the IPO price of the shares disposed and the disposal price of the Class A shares. As of March 31, 2022, the liability of $30.0 million is presented within Other Current Liabilities in our Balance Sheet. The acquired property was treated as an asset acquisition and not an acquisition of a business, and is presented within Property, plant, and equipment in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022.

On February 4, 2022, THRC Holdings entered into a Rights Agreement with Encantor Properties LP, one of the sellers from whom the Company purchased the Munger Ranch property, under which the related party was assigned rights to $8.1 million of the $30.0 million in consideration related to the Munger purchase.

As part of the IPO completed in May 2022, the sellers of Munger Ranch were issued 2,114,273 shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for the $30.0 million consideration related to the Munger Ranch purchase. See Note 15 – Subsequent Events.

iO-TEQ, LLC

The Company acquired iO-TEQ, LLC (“IOT”) in October 2021 for $2.2 million and performed a purchase price allocation at the acquisition date. We recognized net working capital of $0.2 million, property, plant and equipment of $0.1 million, intangible assets of $2.4 million and debt of $0.4 million at estimated fair value. See Note 6 – Intangible Assets for additional information related to the recognized intangible assets.

Best Flow minority interests

In December 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Eagleton Venture, Inc. (“Eagleton”) to purchase Eagleton’s 15.172% interest in Best Flow for a purchase price of $3.9 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022. Eagleton was paid $3.9 million in cash.

12. Fair value of financial instruments

Assets and liabilities recorded on a recurring basis in the balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values.

The Company’s financial instruments and investments that are carried at fair value consist mainly of Level 3 assets. Level 3 assets that are measured on a recurring basis relate to the Company’s investments in (i) Convertible Notes of Flotek, designated as trading securities and (ii) the equity method investment in BPC, for which we elected the fair value option, as described in Note 11 – Acquisitions and Investments for disclosure of the terms of these investments. The Company did 0t have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value using Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy at March 31, 2022. We had 0 Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2021.

Litigation

In the ordinary course of business, we are the subject of, or party to a number of pending or threatened legal actions and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.proceedings. While many of these matters involve inherent uncertainty, we believe that, other than as described below, the amount of the liability, if any, ultimately incurred with respect to proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position as a whole or on our liquidity, capital resources or future annual results of operations.

U.S. Well Services Inc. and U.S. Well Services, LLC (collectively, “USWS”) v. Halliburton Company and Cimarex Energy Co. (collectively, “Halliburton”)

In April 2021, USWS filed a patent infringement suit against Halliburton in United States District Court for the Western District of Texas Waco Division. In the suit, USWS alleges willful infringement of seven U.S. patents based on Halliburton’s “All-Electric Fracturing Fleet.” The trial was previously scheduled for March 2023, but has been postponed to a date yet to be determined in August 2023 or later.

In June 2021, Halliburton filed inter partes review petitions against these USWS patents. In January 2023, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) entered final written decisions finding certain claims of these patents invalid. In March 2023, USWS filed a notice of appeal of the final written decisions invalidating certain claims of three of these patents. Other appeal deadlines remain open. In May 2022, the Western District of Texas ruled certain claims of five of the USWS patents are invalid.

ProFrac Holding Corp.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

(Amounts in millions, except per share amounts, or where otherwise noted)

In May 2022, Halliburton filed an amended answer to this patent infringement suit counterclaiming for declaratory judgment of invalidity of USWS’ patents asserted against Halliburton in this matter and willful infringement of seven of Halliburton’s U.S. patents based on USWS’ clean fleets and conventional fleets. In June 2022, USWS filed inter partes review petitions against four of Halliburton’s patents. In December 2022, the PTAB denied institution of inter partes review against these four patents.

The outcome of Halliburton’s counterclaim against us is uncertain and the ultimate resolution of it could have a material adverse effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in the period in which the resolution is recorded.

Halliburton Energy Services, Inc., Halliburton US Technologies, Inc., and Halliburton Group Technologies, Inc. (collectively, “Halliburton”) v. U.S. Well Services, LLC (“USWS”)

In September 2022, Halliburton filed two patent infringement suits against USWS in United States District Court for the Western District of Texas Waco Division. In the first lawsuit, Halliburton alleges willful infringement of three of its previously asserted patents as well as five additional U.S. patents. In the second lawsuit, Halliburton alleges willful infringement of two of its previously asserted patents as well as five additional U.S. patents. Both lawsuits allege infringement based on all of USWS and ProFrac LLC's fleets. The two lawsuits are scheduled together and set for trial in May 2024.

In January 2023, USWS filed amended answers to these patent infringement suits counterclaiming for declaratory judgment of invalidity of Halliburton’s patents asserted against USWS in this matter and willful infringement of two additional USWS’ U.S. patents based on Halliburton’s “All-Electric Fracturing Fleet.” In February 2023, Halliburton filed inter partes review petitions against these USWS patents.

The outcomes of these cases are uncertain and the ultimate resolution of them could have a material adverse effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in the period in which the resolution is recorded.

Patterson v. FTS International Manufacturing, LLC and FTS International Services, LLC (collectively, “FTS”):

On June 24, 2015, Joshua Patterson filed a lawsuit against the Company in the 115th Judicial District Court of Upshur County, Texas, alleging, among other things, that the CompanyFTS was negligent with respect to an automobile accident in 2013. Mr. Patterson sought monetary relief of more than $1$1.0 million. On July 19, 2018, a jury returned a verdict of approximately $100$100.0 million, including punitive damages, against the Company.FTS. The trial court reduced the judgment to approximately $33.0 million on November 12, 2018, to approximately $33 million. The Company’s2018. FTS's insurance carriers appealed and the Twelfth Court of Appeals reversed the verdict in its entirety on August 26, 2020, remanding the case for a new trial. The Company’s insurance carriers are currently appealing one ofThis litigation was settled in the appellate findings with the Texas Supreme Court. No new trial date has been set. While the outcome of this case is uncertain, the Company hasthree months ended March 31, 2023. We had previously met itsour insurance deductible for this matter and we do not expect the ultimate resolutionsettlement of this case to have a material adversehad no effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Lonestar Prospects, Ltd. d/b/a Vista Sand v.We estimate and provide for potential losses that may arise out of legal proceedings and claims to the extent that such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in making these estimates and our final liabilities may ultimately be materially different from these estimates. When preparing our estimates, we consider, among other factors, the progress of each legal proceeding and claim, our experience and the experience of others in similar legal proceedings and claims, and the opinions and views of legal counsel. Legal costs related to litigation contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Tax Receivable Agreement

In connection with our initial public offering, ProFrac Services, LLC: ProFrac Services, LLC (“ProFrac Services”)Corp. entered into a Master Purchase Agreement For Products And/Or Servicestax receivable agreement (the “TRA”) with Lonestar Prospects, Ltd. d/b/certain holders of limited liability company interests in ProFrac LLC (the “TRA Holders”). The TRA generally provides for payment by ProFrac Corp. to the TRA Holders of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax and franchise tax that ProFrac Corp. actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) as a Vista Sand (“Vista”)result of (i) certain increases in tax basis that occur as a result of ProFrac Corp.'s acquisition (or deemed acquisition for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of all or a portion of such TRA Holder’s ProFrac LLC units in connection with the initial public offering or the exercise of the Redemption Right (as defined in the TRA) or the Call Right (as defined in the TRA), dated November 27, 2017 (the “Vista MSA”),and (ii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by ProFrac Corp. as amendeda result of, and additional tax basis arising from, any payments ProFrac Corp. makes under the TRA.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

(Amounts in millions, except per share amounts, or where otherwise noted)

Payments will generally be made under the TRA as ProFrac Corp. realizes actual cash tax savings from the tax benefits covered by the First AddendumTRA. However, if ProFrac Corp. experiences a Change of Control (as defined in the TRA) or the TRA otherwise terminates early, ProFrac Corp.'s obligations under the TRA would accelerate and ProFrac Corp. would be required to Vista MSAmake an immediate payment equal to the present value of the anticipated future payments to be made by it under the TRA. For example, if a Change in Control or other early termination event had occurred on March 31, 2023, we estimate the payment could have ranged up to more than $270 million. There can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy our obligations under the TRA.

We account for amounts payable under the TRA when we determine that a liability is probable and the First Amendment to Vista MSA, both of which are dated June 10, 2018 (collectively, the “Vista Agreement”). Under the terms of the Vista Agreement, ProFrac Services agreed to purchase certain quantities of sand from Vista. Vista filed a complaint against ProFrac Services in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas on March 15, 2021, in which it alleges that ProFrac Services breached the terms of the Vista Agreement by failing to purchase the required amount of sand or pay for the underpurchased amounts as required by the Vista Agreement. Vista is seeking damages of approximately $8.31 million. Vista and ProFrac Services have entered into a mutually agreed upon Scheduling Order signed by the Court on February 12, 2022. Trial docket call for this matter is currently scheduled for September 6, 2022.

When deemed necessary, we establish reserves for certain legal proceedings. The establishment of a reserve is based on an estimation process that includes the advice of legal counsel and subjective judgment of management. While management believes these reserves to be adequate, it is reasonably possible we could incur additional losses with respect to those matters in which reserves have been established.estimable. As of March 31, 2023, the liability from the TRA was $3.3 million.

NOTE 8. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY

As a result of our investment in and contractual relationship with Flotek Industries, Inc. ("Flotek"), Flotek meets the definition of a VIE and we are the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, we have consolidated the operating results, assets and liabilities of Flotek.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $74.6 million and $79.2 million, respectively, of Flotek's assets and $62.4 million and $72.0 million, respectively, of Flotek's liabilities are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. These amounts are exclusive of goodwill and are after intercompany eliminations. The assets of Flotek can only be used to settle its obligations and the creditors of Flotek have no recourse to our assets. Our exposure to Flotek is generally limited to the carrying value of our variable interest.

NOTE 9. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

We believe that disaggregating our revenue by operating segment (see Note 14) provides the information necessary to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenues and cash flows.

Contract Balances with Customers

Our contract assets are included in “Accounts receivable” in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accounts receivable consist of invoiced amounts or amounts for which we have a right to invoice based on services completed or products delivered. Our current and non-current contract liabilities are included in “Other current liabilities” and “Other liabilities”, respectively, in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenues from advance consideration received from customers related to future performance of service or delivery of products and off-market contract liabilities from unfavorable contracts recognized in connection with our business acquisitions in the Proppant Production segment.

Deferred revenues, including revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023 relating to amounts included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period, are not material to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded additional off-market contract liabilities amounting to $85.0 million from the Performance Proppants acquisition (see Note 2) and recorded the related amortization of $8.1 million to revenue. As of March 31, 2023, our off-market contract liabilities amounted to $100.5 million and the related estimated future amortization to revenue is expected to be $49.4 million for the remainder of 2023, $43.5 million in 2024 and $7.6 million in 2025.

Performance Obligations

Certain of our Proppant Production contracts contain multiple performance obligations to provide a minimum quantity of proppant products to our customers in future periods. For these contracts, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation at estimated selling prices and we recognize revenue as we satisfy these performance obligations. As of March 31, 2023, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations was $530.7 million, and we expect to perform these obligations and recognize revenue of $202.7 million for the remainder of 2023, $189.8 million in 2024, $80.2 million in 2025, $43.5 million in 2026 and $14.5 million in 2027.

(Amounts in millions, except per share amounts, or where otherwise noted)

We have elected the practical expedient permitting the exclusion of disclosing the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for Stimulation Services and Manufacturing contracts as these contracts have original contract terms of one year or less or we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Loss (gain) on disposal of assets, net consists of gains and losses on excess property, early equipment failures and other asset dispositions.

Litigation expenses and accruals for legal contingencies generally represent legal and professional fees incurred in litigation as well as estimates for loss contingencies with regards to certain vendor disputes and litigation matters. In the three months ended March 31, 2023, these costs represent litigation costs incurred in connection with a patent infringement lawsuit against Halliburton. See Note 7 for a discussion of significant litigation matters.

The acquisition earnout adjustment represents a decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration related to our acquisition of REV Energy Holdings, LLC ("REV").

NOTE 11. INCOME TAXES

The Predecessors were organized as limited liability companies or a limited partnership and were treated as either a disregarded entity or a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, whereby the ordinary business income or loss and certain deductions were passed-through and reported on the members’ income tax returns. As such, the Predecessors were not required to account for U.S. federal income taxes in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In connection with our initial public offering in May 2022, we have recordedreorganized and ProFrac LLC became partially owned by ProFrac Corp, a C-corporation. ProFrac Corp. is a taxable entity and is required to account for its income taxes under the asset and liability method for periods subsequent to May 17, 2022.

We record income taxes for interim periods based on an estimated liability of $4.0 million related to a contract dispute claim with a vendor.

We will continue to evaluate our litigationannual effective tax rate. The estimated annual effective rate is recomputed on a quarterly basis and will establishmay fluctuate due to changes in forecasted annual operating income, positive or negative changes to the valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets and adjust any litigation reserveschanges to actual or forecasted permanent book to tax differences.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 10.1%. The difference between our effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate is related to the income that is earned within the financial statement consolidated group that is not subject to tax within the financial statement consolidated group and changes in the valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets.

We have established a valuation allowance on substantially all of our net deferred tax assets. At each reporting date, we consider all available positive and negative evidence to evaluate whether our deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. As of March 31, 2023, we concluded that a valuation allowance was still required because it was more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would not be realized.

The fair value of the earnout payments was estimated using a Black-Scholes model, adjusted for the capped amount of the earnout. The fair value was discounted using a company specific credit spread to account for the counterparty credit risk in making the payment. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement are the risk-free rate, credit spread of the acquirer, discount rate, forecasted results and volatility.

The fair value of the Munger make-whole provision was estimated using a Black-Scholes model. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement are the risk-free rate and volatility.

Nonrecurring Measurements

We have certain assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but were subjected to fair value adjustments at the time of acquisition. These include long-lived assets and liabilities acquired through our business combination activities, the fair values of which were determined using applicable valuation models based on significant unobservable inputs classified as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 2 for additional information.

Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values of our financial instruments have been determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, certain investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of our financial instruments other than long-term debt approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of the items.

The carrying amounts of our term loan facility and ABL credit facility approximate fair value due to the variable interest rate. The fair value of our fixed rate debt, which includes the Monarch note, the REV note and the Equify note was as follows:

NOTE 14. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

We manage our business segments primarily on the type of product or services provided. We have three reportable segments which we operate within the United States of America: stimulation services, proppant production and manufacturing. Amounts in the other category reflect our assessment of the then current status of litigation.

14. Segment information

Our business has 3activities that are not separately reportable, segments: Stimulation services, Manufacturing and Proppant production. Each reportable segment represents a separate business unit that operated as a standalone company prior to the reorganization of the Company in December 2021. Following the reorganization, each reportable segment continues to have distinct management and prepares discrete financial informationwhich primarily includes Flotek for the segment (consistent with when each operated as a standalone business). FTSI is part of our stimulation services segment. Our chief operating decision makers review the discrete segment financial information, including Adjusted EBITDA as the measure of profitability,periods presented.

ProFrac Holding Corp.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

(Amounts in millions, except per share amounts, or where otherwise noted)

We evaluate the performance of our segments and make resource allocation decisions.

We account for intersegment transactions as if the transactions were with third parties, that is, at estimated current market prices. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, intersegment revenues for the manufacturing segment were 84% and 86%, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, intersegment revenues for the proppant production segment were 69% and 29%, respectively.

The performance of our segments is evaluated primarilybased on Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net income (loss), before (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax provision,taxes, (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization, (iv) loss(loss) gain on disposal of assets, (v) stock-based compensation, and (v)(vi) other unusual or non-recurring charges, such as reorganization costs, stock compensation expense and other costs related to our initial public offering, non-recurring supply commitment charges, certain bad debt expense andcredit losses, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt.debt, unrealized gain (loss) on investments, acquisition and integration expenses, litigation expenses and accruals for legal contingencies and acquisition earnout adjustments.

Our Predecessor and ProFrac Holding Corp.

Our predecessor consists of ProFrac LLC and its subsidiaries, Best Flow and Alpine (which we refer to as “ProFrac Predecessor”) on a consolidated basis. Historical periods for ProFrac Predecessor had been presented on a consolidated and combined basis given the common control ownership by the Wilks. On December 21, 2021, all of the then-outstanding membership interests in Best Flow and Alpine were contributed to ProFrac LLC in exchange for membership interests in ProFrac LLC. Unless otherwise indicated, the historical consolidated financial informationnotes thereto included in this Quarterly Report, on Form 10-Q presents the historical financial information of ProFrac Predecessor. Historical consolidated financial information is not indicative of the results that may be expected in any future periods.as well as our Annual Report.

Overview

We are a growth-oriented,technology-focused, vertically integrated and innovation-driven energy services company providing hydraulic fracturing, completionwell stimulation services, proppants production and other complementary products and services to leading upstream oil and gas companies engaged in the E&P of North American unconventional oil and natural gas resources. Founded in 2016, ProFrac was built to beresources throughout the go-to service provider for E&P companies’ most demanding hydraulic fracturing needs. We are focused on employing new technologies to significantly reduce “greenhouse gas” emissions and increase efficiency in what has historically been an emissions-intensive component of the unconventional E&P development process.United States. We believe we are among the technicallargest well stimulation services providers in the United States. We operate throughout nearly all major unconventional oil and operational capabilities of our fleets ideally position us to capture increased demand resulting from the market recovery and our customers’ shifting preferences favoring the sustainable development of natural resources.

Our operations are focused on the leading unconventional regionsgas basins in the United States where we have cultivated deep and longstandingour scale and geographical footprint provide us with both operating leverage as well as exposure to a diversified customer relationships with some of those regions’ most active E&P companies. and commodity mix.

We operate in three reportable business segments: stimulation services, manufacturing and proppant production. We believe we are one of the largest providers of hydraulic fracturing services in North America, with installed capacity of 34 conventional fleets, of which, as of March 31, 2022, 31 were active.

Overall trends and outlook

The global public health crisis associated with the COVID-19 pandemic had an unprecedented effect on demand for energy, crude oil prices and global economic activity. In 2020, the combined effect of COVID-19 and the disruptions to the energy industry led to a rapid and significant decline in WTI crude oil prices and Henry Hub natural gas prices. In response to the significant drop in commodity prices, E&P companies acted swiftly to reduce capital budgets and drilling and completion activity. Reduced demand for services compounded by constrained capital access forced the acceleration of the attrition cycle for pressure pumping equipment as older equipment requiring higher repair and maintenance spending were used for spare parts or scrapped.

Difficult industry conditions allowed us to strengthen our industry leadership position by implementing targeted and forward-looking initiatives. First, we utilized our in-house repair and maintenance yards to maintain and ensure ongoing operational integrity of our equipment without cannibalization, retaining the quality and reliability of our fleet. Second, we successfully completed in-house research and development regarding advanced power end and fluid ends designs, leading to substantially longer life of our expendables and reduced repair and maintenance costs. Third, we added over 140 dual fuel kits to our Tier IV engines, in order to position ourselves as a market leading provider of low carbon emission solutions. Fourth, we completed the acquisition of EKU, a provider of idle reduction technologies and other equipment engineering and controls that further reduce the carbon footprint of our fleet. Finally, we strategically invested in businesses providing ancillary products and services, such as our investments in West Munger, Flotek and FHE, which provides us with greater supply chain control and mitigates disruptions that have previously impacted the operations of our competitors and customers.

Drilling and completion activities for oil and gas are heavily influenced by oil and gas prices. In 2022, geopolitical tensions in Eastern Europe related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have resulted in significant supply disruptions as a broad coalition of countries have responded with sanctions and/or import bans associated with Russian oil and natural gas. This has resulted in significant tightening in the market as reflected by higher commodity prices, with oil and gas prices reaching decade highs. As a result of the FTSI Acquisition, our operations have diversified exposure to both natural gas and oil producing areas. Natural gas and oil prices have increased substantially compared to year-end 2020 prices and have also surpassed year-end 2019 (pre-COVID-19) levels.

While commodity prices have returned to and exceeded pre-pandemic levels, the pandemic has nonetheless led to supply chain disruptions worldwide. Tariffs, access to employees, increased shipping rates and raw material shortages are plaguing markets. Our supply chain is either vertically integrated or predominantly U.S. based, mitigating our exposure to global disruptions and price increases and allowing us to continue to maintain attractive margins. As our operations are predominantly U.S. based, we have no direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine. We have realized indirect impacts that may have occurred as a result of the crisis, such as modest increases in the costs of certain raw materials and components we purchase for use in our manufacturing processes. However, given the inflationary climate in the United States and globally, we are unable to determine the extent to which such increased commodity prices are the result of the crisis in Ukraine or a result of other factors. Despite these increases, we have experienced improved results of operations due to increased utilization of our fleets and increased prices for our products and services which have permitted us to maintain and increase our margins notwithstanding such cost increases.

The oil and gas industry is currently undergoing significant realignment of operating practices with a focus on reducing impacts to the environment. Many E&P companies are implementing carbon tracking and reduction initiatives and are expecting oilfield service providers to deliver products and services that utilize the most advanced and environmentally friendly technologies. We believe that companies in the pressure pumping industry with the most technologically advanced fleets and lowest carbon footprint will likely see significant growth in market share at the expense of companies with less advanced equipment. We have embraced tangible initiatives that help to protect the environment and improve our environment and communities making it part of our organizational culture since early in the life of the company. We have and intend to continue to invest in a number of industry leading advanced technologies that reduce carbon emissions while increasing profitability. We are currently upgrading five to ten engines per month from Tier II to Tier IV DGB. In June, 2021 we entered into an agreement with USWS under which we have the ability to acquire up to 20 licenses to construct electric-powered hydraulic fracturing fleets utilizing Clean Fleet® technology. We believe that these initiatives and commitment to lower emissions will help us lead the energy transition of the frac industry towards cleaner and sustainable business.

How we generate revenue

We operate three business segments: stimulation services manufacturingsegment owns and proppant production.

Stimulation services.    We own and operateoperates a fleet of mobile hydraulic fracturing units and other auxiliary equipment that generates revenue by providing stimulation services to our customers. We also provide personnelOur proppant production segment provides proppant to oilfield service providers and services that are tailored to meet each of our customers’ needs. We generally do not have long-term written contractual arrangements with our customers other than standard master service agreements, which include general contractual terms between our customers and us. We charge our customers on a per-job basis, in which we set pricing terms after receiving full specifications for the requested job, including the lateral length of the customer’s wellbore, the number of frac stages per well, the amount of proppant employed and other specifications of the job. Well stimulation contains complementary services that we often provide to our customers, including sand and associated logistics, chemicals and fuel. These complementary services are provided through various contractual arrangements based on our customers’ needs.

Manufacturing.    We primarily generate revenue through sales ofE&P companies. Our manufacturing segment sells highly engineered, tight tolerance machined, assembled, and factory tested products such as high horsepower pumps, valves, piping, swivels, large-bore manifold systems, seats, and fluid ends. As of March 31,

Costs of conducting our business

The principal costs of products and Stimulation services involved in operating our business are expendables, personnel, equipment repairs and maintenance and fuel. Our fixed costs are relatively low and a large portion of the costs described below are only incurred as we perform jobs for our customers.

Expendables.    Expendables used in our stimulation services business are the largest expenses incurred, and include the fuel, product and freight costs associated with proppant, chemicals and other consumables. Fuel is consumed both in the operation and movement of our hydraulic fracturing fleets and other equipment. In our proppant production business, fuel to run equipment is one of our major expenses. These costs comprise a substantial variable component of our service costs, particularly with respect to the quantity and quality of sand demanded when providing hydraulic fracturing services.

Raw Materials.    Our manufacturing segment relies on various raw materials, specifically various grades of steel and other raw metals, and electricity.

Direct Labor Costs.    Payroll and benefit expenses directly related to the delivery of our products and services are included in our operating costs.

Other Direct Costs.    We incur other expenses related to our products and service offerings, including the costs of repairs and maintenance, general supplies, equipment rental and other miscellaneous operating expenses. Capital expenditures to upgrade or extend the useful life of equipment are not included in other direct costs.

How we evaluate our operations

Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to evaluate and analyze the performance of our business, including Adjusted EBITDA.

Note regarding Non-GAAP financial measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, net loss, operating loss 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 is a supplemental measure 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 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 view Adjusted EBITDA as an important indicator of performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net income (loss), before (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax provision, (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization, (iv) loss on disposal of assets and (v) other unusual or non-recurring charges, such as costs related to our initial public offering, non-recurring supply commitment charges, certain bad debt expense and gain on extinguishment of debt.

We believe that our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA will provide useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. 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. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of this non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility.

Factors affecting the comparability of our financial results

Our future results of operations may not be comparable to our historical results of operations for the reasons described below:

Table of Contents

Recent Acquisitions

We have grown recently through strategic acquisitions and investments, including through our recently completed acquisitions of FTSI and West Munger and our investments in BPC and Flotek. These acquisitions are not reflected in our historical results of operations and our future results will differ as a result.

In addition, in connection with our acquisitions, we have recorded the acquired assets and liabilities at fair value on the date of acquisition, which has impacted deferred revenue and deferred costs balances and increased revenue and expenses from that which would have otherwise been recognized in subsequent periods. We also recorded identifiable intangible assets that are amortized over their useful lives, increasing expenses from that which would otherwise have been recognized.

Public company expenses

We expect to incur additional recurring administrative expenses as a result of becoming a publicly traded corporation that we have not previously incurred, including costs associated with compliance under the Exchange Act, annual and quarterly reports to shareholders, transfer agent fees, audit fees, incremental director and officer liability insurance costs, SOX compliance readiness, and director and officer compensation. We additionally expect to incur approximately $2.5 million in incremental, non-recurring costs related to our transition to a publicly traded corporation.

Income taxes

ProFrac Holding Corp. is a corporation and will be subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes. Although the ProFrac Predecessor entities are subject to franchise tax in the State of Texas, they have historically been treated as pass-through entities for U.S. federal and other state and local income tax purposes and as such were not subject to U.S. federal income taxes or other state or local income taxes. Rather, the tax liability with respect to the taxable income of the ProFrac Predecessor entities was passed through to their owners. Accordingly, prior to the March 2022 acquisition of FTSI, a corporation subject to U.S. federal and state income tax, the financial data attributable to ProFrac Predecessor contains no provision for U.S. federal income taxes or income taxes in any state or locality (other than franchise tax in the State of Texas). Subsequent to the acquisition of FTSI in March 2022, the financial data of the ProFrac Predecessor does contain both U.S. federal and state income taxes. We estimate that we will be subject to U.S. federal and state taxes at a blended statutory rate of approximately 23% of pre-tax earnings. Additionally, with the acquisition of EKU, the Company is subject to certain foreign taxes, which were immaterialrevenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Effective March 4, 2022 we account for income taxes under2023 increased $454.0 million, or 135% from the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequencessame period in 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amountsour acquisitions of existing assetsFTS, USWS, REV and liabilitiesProducers which increased our average fleet count and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled pursuant to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts more likely than not to be realized.related pumping hours substantially.

We recorded a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets based on our assessment that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. A change in these assumptions could cause a decrease to the valuation allowance, which could materially impact our results of operations.

Sources of Liquidity

Historically, our primary sources of liquidity have been borrowings under our term loan facility or ABL credit facility and cash flows from operations.

At March 31, 2023, we had $57.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, excluding Flotek, and $111.5 million available for borrowings under our ABL credit facility, resulting in a total liquidity position of $169.0 million.

Cash Requirements

Our material cash requirements have consisted of, and we anticipate will continue to consist of the following:

debt service obligations, including interest,
capital expenditures, and
acquisitions of strategic businesses

Debt Service Obligations

As of March 31, 2023, we have $1.3 billion in aggregate principal amount of long-term debt outstanding. We believe we have a manageable debt maturity profile, with $140 million coming due over the next twelve months. For additional information about our services,long-term debt, please see Item 8 "Financial Statements and costs associated with the FTSI acquisitionSupplementary Data" in our Annual Report.

Capital Expenditures

The nature of $13.0 million.our capital expenditures consists of a base level of investment required to support our current operations and amounts related to growth and company initiatives.

Adjusted EBITDA—Manufacturing.    Adjusted EBITDA—Manufacturing increased $7.7 million, to $10.0 million forDuring the three months ended March 31, 2022, from $2.32023, our capital expenditures were $83.2 million, consisting of expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increased volumemaintenance capital expenditures for our products used by our oil field services customers.

Adjusted EBITDA—Proppant production.    Adjusted EBITDA—Proppant production increased $5.5 million,larger fleet, building four electric-powered hydraulic fracturing fleets, and engine upgrades to $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, from $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable an increase in proppant production and pricing resulting from increased proppant demand in the Permian basin.

Liquidity and capital resources

Historically, our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have been borrowings under our Old ABL Credit Facility, cash flows from our operations and capital contributions from our shareholders. Our primary uses of capital have been investing in and maintaining our property and equipment and repaying indebtedness.

Looking forward, we expect that our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources will be cash on hand, including net proceeds of our IPO, cash flows generated by operating activities and borrowings under our credit facilities.convert legacy pumps to next generation technology. We expect that our primary usescapital expenditures to accelerate over the next six months given the projected timing of project completions and cash outlays. We will remain disciplined with capital will be to continue to fund our operations, support organicallocation and strategic growth opportunities and satisfy future debt payments.

We expect to incur significant additional indebtedness in order to finance the acquisitions of the SP Companies and USWS (the “Acquisition Transactions”), which will limit our operating flexibility, and could adversely affect our operations and financial results and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations. The USWS Merger Agreement requires us to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and consummate a financing to fund the repayment in connection with the closing of the Merger of certain indebtedness of USWS and its subsidiaries.  In addition, the completion of the SPS Acquisition is dependent upon our ability to fund the $90 million cash purchase price under the SP Companies Purchase Agreement. Our obtaining the financing necessary to consummate either of the Acquisition Transactions is not a condition to closing either such Acquisition Transaction.

In order to fund our various obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions, including the repayment of approximately $170 million of USWS debt currently projected to be outstanding at closing and the payment of expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition Transactions, we expect to incur up to approximately $250 million of new indebtedness.  We currently expect such new indebtedness to be funded, at least in part, from a potential upsizing of our New Term Loan Credit Facility and/or New ABL Credit Facility. We also expect to assume approximately $55 million of indebtedness in connection with the USWS transaction, and to fund certain of our obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions through cash flows generated from operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to upsize our current facilities, refinance any of our outstanding indebtedness, and/or obtain additional financing on favorable terms, or at all, or that our cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient, in order to satisfy our obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions, or otherwise. For additional discussion of risks relating to our liquidity needs, the Acquisition Transactions and our anticipated additional indebtedness, see our risk factors under Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Based on our current cash and cash equivalents balance, operating cash flow, current availability under our credit facilities, and the ongoing actions and financing alternatives discussed above, we believe that we will be able to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund our planned acquisitions andreduce capital expenditures satisfy our obligations, and remain in compliance with our existing debt covenants through the next twelve months and beyond.

On May 17, 2022, in connection with our IPO,based on total fleet activity levels to ensure we entered into a tax receivable agreement (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”) with certain of the common unit holders of ProFrac LLC (the “TRA Holders”). The Tax Receivable Agreement generally provides for the payment by us to each TRA Holder of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax and franchise tax (computed using simplifying assumptions to address the impact of state and local taxes) that we actually realize (or are deemed to realize in certain circumstances) as a result of (i) certain increases in tax basis that occur as a result of our acquisition (or deemed acquisition for U.S. federal income tax purposes) ofmaintain return thresholds on all or a portion of such TRA Holder’s common units of ProFrac LLC in

connection with our IPO or pursuant to an exercise of the Redemption Right or the Call Right (as such terms are defined in the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of ProFrac LLC) and (ii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by us as a result of, and additional tax basis arising from, any payments we make under the Tax Receivable Agreement. We depend on ProFrac LLC to make distributions to us in an amount sufficient to cover our obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement.

Payments will generally be made under the Tax Receivable Agreement as we realize actual cash tax savings from the tax benefits covered by the Tax Receivable Agreement. However, if we experience a change of control, or the Tax Receivable Agreement otherwise terminates early, our obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement would accelerate and we would be required to make an immediate payment equal to the present value of the anticipated future payments to be made by us under the Tax Receivable Agreement (determined by applying a discount rate). Any such payment is expected to be substantial.

Our 2022 Capital Budget

Our 2022 capital expenditure budget, excluding acquisitions, is estimated to be in a range between $240 million and $290 million. We have budgeted approximately $65 million to $70 million to construct three electric-powered fleets. We are fully committed to building the three electric-powered fleets and have several customers interested in contracting these fleets. We intend to align fleet construction and other growth capital expenditures with visible customer demand, by strategically deploying new equipment in response to inbound customer requests and industry trends. Also included in our 2022 capital expenditure budget is $25 million to $30 million to construct the West Munger sand mine. We estimate maintenance capital expenditures to be $2.75 million to $3.0 million per fleet per year. We expect that the remainder of our 2022 capital expenditure budget, excluding any potential acquisitions, will be used to fund other growth initiatives such as upgrading Tier II fleets to Tier IV dual fuel fleets. We continually evaluate our capital expenditures and the amount that we ultimately spend will depend on a number of factors, including customer demand for new fleets and expected industry activity levels.

Acquisitions of Strategic Businesses

Our growth strategy includes potential acquisitions and other strategic transactions. From time to time we enter into non-binding letters of intent to make investments or acquisitions. These letters of intent may provide for purchase consideration including cash, notes payable by us, equity or some combination, the use of which could impact our liquidity needs. These potential transactions are subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence, the negotiation and resolution of significant business and legal issues, the negotiation, documentation and completion of mutually satisfactory definitive agreements among the parties, the consent of our lenders, our ability to finance any cash payment at closing, and approval of our board of directors. We cannot guarantee that any such potential transaction would be completed on acceptable terms, if at all.

We have historically funded our acquisitions through issuances of our equity securities and borrowings under our term loan facility or ABL credit facility. For any future acquisitions, we may utilize borrowings under our ABL credit facility and various financing sources available to us, including the issuance of equity or debt securities through public offerings or private placements, to fund these acquisitions. Our ability to complete future offerings of equity or debt securities and the timing of these offerings will depend on various factors including prevailing market conditions and our financial condition.

We believe wethat our cash and cash equivalents, cash provided by operations, and the availability under our ABL credit facility will be ablesufficient to fund our 2022 capital program from cash flows from operations.

Working Capital

Our working capital was $71.0 million and $5.0 million as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively. The $66.0 million increase in working capital was primarily due to higher activity levels in the first quarter of 2022.

Credit facilities and other financing arrangements

New ABL Credit facility

On March 4, 2022, ProFrac LLC, ProFrac II LLC, as borrower (in such capacity, the “ABL Borrower”), and certain of the ABL Borrower’s wholly owned subsidiaries as obligors, entered into a senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement (as amended, the “New ABL Credit Facility”), with a group of lenders with JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent. The New ABL Credit Facility provides for an asset-based revolving credit facility with a borrowing base and lender commitments of $100.0 million. The New ABL Credit Facility has a borrowing base composed of certain eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory less customary reserves, as redetermined monthly. As of March 31, 2022, the maximum availability under the New ABL Credit Facility was the aggregate lender commitments of $100.0 million with $70.7 million of borrowings outstanding and $9.2 million of letters of credit outstanding, resulting in approximately $20.1 million of remaining availability. Our New ABL Credit Facility matures on the earlier of (i) March 4, 2027 and (ii) 91 days prior to the stated maturity of any material indebtedness (other than the First Financial Loan).  

Borrowings under the New ABL Credit Facility accrue interest based on a three-tier pricing grid tied to average historical availability, and the ABL Borrower may elect for loans to be based on either an Adjusted Term SOFR or a base rate, plus the applicable margin. The interest rate under our New ABL Credit Facility for (a) Adjusted Term SOFR is the applicable margin plus the fluctuating per annum rate equal to Adjusted Term SOFR (with an Adjusted Term SOFR Floor of 0.00%); and (b) Base Rate Loans are the applicable margin plus the fluctuating per annum rate equal to the greatest of the Prime Rate in effect on such day, or the NYFRB Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2% of 1% and the Adjusted Term SOFR for a one-month Interest Period as published two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), plus 1.0%. The applicable margin for Adjusted Term SOFR Loans ranges from 1.50% to 2.00% and for Base Rate Loans ranges from 0.50% to 1.00%, depending on the average daily availability over the last three months under our New ABL Credit Facility.

Our New ABL Credit Facility bears an unused line fee ranging from 0.250% to 0.375%, depending on the average daily availability over the last three months payable quarterly in arrears. The New ABL Credit Facility also bears customary letter of credit fees. The interest rate was 4.75% as of March 31, 2022.

Our New ABL Credit Facility is subject to customary mandatory prepayments, including a mandatory prepayment if the aggregate unpaid principal balance of revolving loans, agent advances, swingline borrowings, unreimbursed drawings under letters of credit and the undrawn amount of outstanding letters of credit exceeds at any time the lesser of (x) the then applicable borrowing base and (y) the then total effective commitments under the New ABL Credit Facility, in an amount equal to such excess. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Period (defined in the New ABL Credit Facility as (a) any period commencing upon the date that availability shall have been less than the greater of (i) 12.5% of the Maximum Credit (which is the lesser of the maximum revolver amount in effect at such time and the borrowing base at such time) and (ii) $10.0 million for a period of five consecutive business days and continuing until the date on which availability shall have been at least the greater of (y) 12.5% of the Maximum Credit and (z) $10.0 million for 20 consecutive calendar days next 12 months. If we pursue additional acquisitions during 2023, we will likely need to raise additional debt and/or (b) any period commencing on the occurrence of certain specified events of default, and continuing during the period that such specified event of default shall be continuing).

Our New ABL Credit Facility contains certain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants.

Capital expenditures

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, our capital expenditures were $41.5 million and $17.4 million, respectively. We currently expect our capital expenditures to increase in 2022 and 2023, which are expected to be funded with cash flows from operations. The primary drivers of the increase are building electric-powered hydraulic fracturing fleets, continued engine upgrades as part of our ESG initiatives, and deployment costs associated with reactivating hydraulic fracturing fleets.

Off-Balance sheet arrangements

From time-to-time, we enter into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that can give rise to off-balance sheet obligations. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that we have entered into include undrawn letters of credit. We do not believe that these arrangements are reasonably likely to materially affect our liquidity or availability of, or requirements for, capital resources.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally acceptable in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and base our estimates on historical experience, current conditions and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities as well as identifying and assessing the accounting treatment with respect to commitments and contingencies. Our actual results may materially differ from these estimates.

Our critical accounting policies are described under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Prospectus.

Listed below are the changes in our accounting policies that we believe are critical to our financial statements due to the degree of uncertainty regarding the estimates or assumptions involved, and that we believe are critical to the understanding of our operations.

Variable Interest Entities

We evaluate our ownership, contractual and other interest in entities to determine if they are variable interest entities (“VIE”). We evaluate whether we have a variable interest in those entities and the nature and extent of those interests. Based on our evaluation, if we determine we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we consolidate the entity in our financial statements.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. Historically, our risks have been predominantly related to potential changes in the fair value of our long-term debt due to fluctuations in applicable market interest rates. Going forward our market risk exposure generally will be limited to those risks that arise in the normal course of business, as we do not engage in speculative, non-operating transactions, nor do we utilize financial instruments or derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Table of Contents

Commodity price riskInterest Rate Risk

Our material and fuel purchases expose us to commodity price risk. Our material costs primarily include the cost of inventory consumed while performing our pressure pumping services such as proppants, chemicals, trucking and fluid supplies. For our manufacturing segment, our material costs primarily include the cost of steel. For our proppant production segment, our material costs primarily include the cost of fuel. Our fuel costs consist primarily of diesel fuel used by our trucks, frac fleets and other motorized equipment. The prices for fuel and the raw materials in our inventory are volatile and are impacted by changes in supply and demand, as well as market uncertainty and regional shortages. Additionally, the market for our products and services is indirectly exposed to fluctuations in the prices of oil and natural gas to the extent such fluctuations impact well completion activity levels. Historically, we have generally been able to pass along price increases to our customers; however, we may be unable to do so in the future. We do not engage in commodity price hedging activities.

Interest rate risk

We are subject to interest rate risk on our variable rate debt from our New Term Loan Credit Facilityterm loan credit facility and our New ABL Credit Facility. The Companycredit facility. We also hashave fixed rate debt but doesdo not currently utilize derivative instruments to manage the economic effect of changes in interest rates. The impact of a 1% increase in interest rates on our outstanding debt as of March 31, 20222023, would have resulted in an annual increase in interest expense of approximately $5.2$11.1 million.

CreditOur exposure to other market risks has not materially changed since December 31, 2022. For additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting us, see Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" in our Annual Report. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2022.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are trade account receivables. We extend credit to customers and other parties in the normal course of business. We have established various procedures to manage our credit exposure, including credit evaluations and maintaining an allowance for doubtful accounts.ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Item 4. Controls and Procedures. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain a systemIn accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Executive Chairman (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Executive Chairman and 15d-15(e)) designedChief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023 to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in theour reports that we filefiled or submitsubmitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms offorms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the SEC, andExchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Executive Chairman (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer, (our principal financial officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.disclosures.

Our management, with the participation of our Executive Chairman and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under the Exchange Act, as of March 31, 2022, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Executive Chairman and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Limitations on Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Prospectus. Except for the risk factors noted below, thereThere have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Prospectus. In addition to the risk factors enumerated below, risk factors in our Prospectus, including without limitationsignificant risk factors that address risks relating to potential future acquisitions and risks relating to indebtedness, are implicated by the Acquisition Transactions (as defined below) and our expected financing needs in connection therewith.

Consummation of the acquisitions of the SP Companies and USWS is contingent upon the satisfaction of a number of conditions, including, as to USWS, approval by USWS’ stockholders, which may not be satisfied or completed on a timely basis, if at all. Failure to complete either of these transactions could negatively impact our stock price, business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Consummation of the acquisitions of the SP Companies and USWS (the “Acquisition Transactions”) is subject to conditions to closing that are not wholly within the Company’s control, including, among other things, with respect to USWS, adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of USWS Common Stock entitled to vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement. We cannot assure you that each of the conditions with respect to either Acquisition Transaction will be satisfied or waived in a timely manner, if at all, and either Acquisition Transaction may be delayed or not consummated. If the conditions are not satisfied or waived in a timely manner and either of the Acquisition Transactions is delayed or not consummated, we may lose some or all of the intended or perceived benefits of the Acquisition Transactions, which could cause our stock price to decline and harm our business.

We are also subject to additional risks in connection with the Acquisition Transactions, including, without limitation: (1) the parties’ ability to meet expectations regarding the timing and completion of the Acquisition Transactions; (2) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Acquisition Transactions; (3) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the Acquisition Transactions on our business relationships, operating results, and business generally; (4) risks that the Acquisition Transactions disrupt the Company’s current plans and operations; (5) the amount of the costs, fees, expenses and other charges related to the Acquisition Transactions; (6) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against us or any of our affiliates relating to the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Transactions; (7) the restrictions imposed on our business and operations pursuant to any affirmative or negative covenants set forth in the documents relating to the Acquisition Transactions, and the potential impact of such covenants on our business; (8) the risk that the Acquisition Transactions will divert management’s attention resulting in a potential disruption of our current business plan; (9) potential difficulties in employee retention arising from the Acquisition Transactions; (10) the ability to obtain certain governmental and regulatory approvals, including the expiration or termination of the HSR Act waiting period; and (11) the ability to integrate acquired assets and personnel into our existing business model and realize the expected value of resulting operational synergies from the Acquisition Transactions.

We expect to incur significant additional indebtedness in order to finance the Acquisition Transactions, which will limit our operating flexibility, and could adversely affect our operations and financial results and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations.

The USWS Merger Agreement requires us to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and consummate a financing to fund the repayment in connection with the closing of the Merger of certain indebtedness of USWS and its subsidiaries.  In addition, the completion of the SPS Acquisition is dependent upon our ability to fund the $90 million cash purchase price under the SP Companies Purchase Agreement. Our obtaining the financing necessary to consummate either of the Acquisition Transactions is not a condition to closing either such Acquisition Transaction.

In order to fund our various obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions, including the repayment of approximately $170 million of USWS debt currently projected to be outstanding at closing and the payment of expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition Transactions, we expect to incur up to approximately $250 million of new indebtedness.   We currently expect such new indebtedness to be funded, at least in part, from a potential upsizing of our New Term Loan Credit Facility and/or New ABL Credit Facility. We also expect to assume approximately $55 million of indebtedness in connection with the USWS transaction, and to fund certain of our obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions through cash flows generated from operations.

Table of Contents

Our ability to upsize our current facilities, refinance any of our outstanding indebtedness, and/or obtain additional financing in order to satisfy our obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions will depend on, among other things, our financial condition at the time, restrictions in agreements governing our indebtedness, and other factors, including the financial condition of USWS and the SP Companies, restrictions in agreements governing the indebtedness of  that we are assuming, and the condition of the financial markets and the markets in which we compete. As a result, we cannot assure that we will be able to upsize our current facilities, refinance any of our outstanding indebtedness, and/or obtain additional financing on favorable terms, or at all, or that our cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient, in order to satisfy our obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions, or otherwise.

To the extent we are able to upsize our current facilities, refinance any of our outstanding indebtedness, and/or obtain additional financing, such level of indebtedness may:

make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our outstanding indebtedness;

increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including increases in interest rates;

require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to interest and principal payments on our indebtedness, which would reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, expansion efforts and other general corporate purposes;

limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate;

place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; and

limit our ability to borrow additional funds for working capital, capital expenditures, general corporate purposes and acquisitions.

In addition, the terms of any financing obligations to be incurred in connection with any upsizing of our current facilities, refinancing of any of our outstanding indebtedness, and/or additional financing are likely to contain covenants that restrict our ability to engage in certain transactions and may impair our ability to respond to changing business and economic conditions, including, among other things, limitations on our ability to:

incur additional indebtedness;

pay dividends and make distributions;

repurchase stock;

make certain investments;

create liens;

engage in transactions with affiliates;

merge with or acquire another company; and

transfer and sell assets.

Our ability to comply with these provisions may be affected by general economic conditions, political decisions, industry conditions and other events beyond our control. Our failure to comply with the covenants contained in any amended or new financing facilities could result in an event of default, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operation and financial condition.

If there were an event of default underoperations or liquidity as described in Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our current, amended or new debt instruments (if any), the holders of such debt may be able to cause all amounts outstanding to be due and payable immediately and such event of default may be cross-defaulted to other debt. Our assets or cash flow may not be sufficient to fully repay borrowings under such debt instruments if accelerated upon an event of default, and there is no guarantee that we would be able to repay, refinance or restructure the payments under any such indebtedness.

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow to service all of our obligations, including our obligations under our new credit and other financing facilities.

efforts, will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control.Annual Report.

Our business may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, and we cannot assure that future borrowings will be available to us in amounts sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or any future indebtedness as such indebtedness matures and to fund our other liquidity needs. If this is the case, we will need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity, and we cannot assure that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We may need to implement one or more alternatives, such as reducing or delaying planned expenses and capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring debt, or obtaining additional equity or debt financing. These financing strategies may not be executed on satisfactory terms, if at all. Our ability to upsize our current facilities, refinance our indebtedness or obtain additional financing, and to do so on commercially reasonable terms, will depend on, among other things, our financial condition at the time, restrictions in agreements governing our indebtedness, and other factors, including the condition of the financial markets and the markets in which we will compete.

If we do not generate sufficient cash flows from operations, and additional borrowings, refinancings or proceeds of asset sales are not available to us, we may not have sufficient cash to enable us to meet all of our obligations, including our various obligations in connection with the Acquisition Transactions.
