Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Basis of Presentation	Organization and Basis of Presentation Organization Liberty Energy Inc., formerly known as Liberty Oilfield Services Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on December 21, 2016, to become a holding corporation for Liberty Oilfield Services New HoldCo LLC (“Liberty LLC”) and its subsidiaries upon completion of a corporate reorganization (the “Corporate Reorganization”) and planned initial public offering of the Company (“IPO”). On April 19, 2022, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation for the purpose of changing the Company’s name from “Liberty Oilfield Services Inc.” to “Liberty Energy Inc.” and thereafter, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to reflect the new name, effective April 25, 2022. Effective January 31, 2023, Liberty LLC was merged into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, all outstanding shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”), were redeemed and exchanged for an equal number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”). The Company did not make any distributions or receive any proceeds in connection with this exchange. The Merger did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company, together with its subsidiaries, is a leading integrated energy services and technology company focused on providing innovative hydraulic fracturing services and related technologies to onshore oil and natural gas exploration and production (“E&P”) companies in North America. We offer customers hydraulic fracturing services, together with complementary services including wireline services, proppant delivery solutions, field gas processing, compressed natural gas (“CNG”) delivery, data analytics, related goods (including our sand mine operations), and technologies to facilitate lower emission completions, thereby helping our customers reduce their emissions profile. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read together with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes present the condensed consolidated financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the results of operations and equity of the Company as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the entire fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Further, these estimates and other factors, including those outside the Company’s control, such as the impact of sustained lower commodity prices, could have a significant adverse impact to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. All intercompany amounts have been eliminated in the presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company’s operations are organized into a single reportable segment, which consists of hydraulic fracturing and related goods and services.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies Recently Issued Accounting Standards Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , which requires more detailed disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, related to the Company’s reportable segment. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Although the Company has only one reportable segment, the Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements. Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , which requires disaggregation of certain components included in the Company’s effective tax rate and income taxes paid disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements but does not expect it will have a material impact. Siren Acquisition On April 6, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of a Permian focused integrated natural gas compression and compressed natural gas delivery business, Siren Energy & Logistics, LLC, for cash consideration of $75.7 million, after post-closing adjustments and net of cash received, (the “Siren Acquisition”). The Siren Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, the Company conducted assessments of the net assets acquired and recognized amounts for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated acquisition date fair values, while transaction and integration costs associated with the acquisition were expensed as incurred. In connection with the Siren Acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $42.0 million, property and equipment of $34.9 million, net working capital of $2.5 million, deferred revenue of $5.2 million, and other assets of $1.8 million. Goodwill is recorded in other assets and deferred revenue is recorded in accrued liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Leases	Leases The Company has operating and finance leases primarily for vehicles, equipment, railcars, office space, and facilities. The terms and conditions for these leases vary by the type of underlying asset. Certain leases include variable lease payments for items such as property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and other operating expenses associated with leased assets. Payments that vary based on an index or rate are included in the measurement of lease assets and liabilities at the rate as of the commencement date. All other variable lease payments are excluded from the measurement of lease assets and liabilities, and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

For vehicle leases that are classified as finance leases, the Company includes the residual value guarantee, estimated in the lease agreement, in the financing lease liability. Lessor Arrangements The Company leases dry and wet sand containers and conveyor belts to customers through operating leases, where the lessor for tax purposes is considered to be the owner of the equipment during the term of the lease. The lease agreements do not include options for the lessee to purchase the underlying asset at the end of the lease term for either a stated fixed price or fair market value. However, some of the leases contain a termination clause in which the customer can cancel the contract. The leases can be subject to variable lease payments if the customer requests more units than what is agreed upon in the lease.

On January 23, 2023, the Company borrowed $106.7 million on the ABL Facility and used the proceeds to pay off and terminate the Term Loan Facility. The amount paid included the balance of the Term Loan Facility at pay off of $104.7 million, $0.9 million of accrued interest, and a $1.1 million prepayment premium. The weighted average interest rate on all borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was 7.6% and 7.6%, respectively. ABL Facility Under the terms of the ABL Facility, up to $525.0 million may be borrowed, subject to certain borrowing base limitations based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. As of June 30, 2024, the borrowing base was calculated to be $395.6 million, and the Company had $147.0 million outstanding in addition to letters of credit in the amount of $7.4 million, with $241.2 million of remaining availability. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or a base rate, plus an applicable SOFR margin of 1.5% to 2.0% or base rate margin of 0.5% to 1.0%, as described in the ABL Facility credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). Additionally, borrowings as of June 30, 2024 incurred interest at a weighted average rate of 7.6%. The average monthly unused commitment is subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.25% to 0.375%. Interest and fees are payable in arrears at the end of each month, or, in the case of SOFR loans, at the end of each interest period. The ABL Facility matures on January 23, 2028. Borrowings under the ABL Facility are collateralized by accounts receivable and inventory, and further secured by the Company as parent guarantor. The ABL Facility includes certain non-financial covenants, including but not limited to restrictions on incurring additional debt and certain distributions. Moreover, the ability of the Company to incur additional debt and to make distributions is dependent on maintaining a maximum leverage ratio. The ABL Facility is not subject to financial covenants unless liquidity, as defined in the Credit Agreement, drops below a specific level. The Company is required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, of 1.0 to 1.0 for each period if excess availability is less than 10% of the borrowing base or $52.5 million, whichever is greater. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2024. Maturities of debt are as follows: ($ in thousands) Remainder of 2024 $ — 2025 — 2026 — 2027 — 2028 147,000 Thereafter — $ 147,000

Fair Value Measurements and Fin

Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments	6 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments	Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments The fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities represent the amounts that would be received to sell those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction on the reporting date. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability on the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company discloses the fair values of its assets and liabilities according to the quality of valuation inputs under the following hierarchy: • Level 1 Inputs: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 Inputs: Inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable. • Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities. The classification of an asset or liability is based on the lowest level of input significant to its fair value. Those that are initially classified as Level 3 are subsequently reported as Level 2 when the fair value derived from unobservable inputs is inconsequential to the overall fair value, or if corroborating market data becomes available. Assets and liabilities that are initially reported as Level 2 are subsequently reported as Level 3 if corroborating market data is no longer available. Transfers occur at the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers into or out of Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, investments in equity securities, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, long-term debt, and finance and operating lease obligations. These financial instruments do not require disclosure by level. The carrying values of all of the Company’s financial instruments included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets approximated or equaled their fair values on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. • The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable (including accrued liabilities) approximated fair value on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, due to their short-term nature. • The carrying value of investments in equity securities were measured at fair value on June 30, 2024 based on quoted prices in active markets. • The carrying value of amounts outstanding under long-term debt agreements with variable rates approximated fair value on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as the effective interest rates approximated market rates. • The carrying values of amounts outstanding under finance and operating lease obligations approximated fair value on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as the effective borrowing rates approximated market rates. Nonrecurring Measurements Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These items are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but may be subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $1.2 million of land and $2.8 million of buildings, net of accumulated depreciation, of two properties that met the held for sale criteria, to assets held for sale at a total fair value of $3.4 million, which are included in prepaid and other current assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimated the fair value of the properties based on the listed selling price for the two properties, which is a Level 3 input. The Company estimates that the carrying value of the assets is equal to the fair value less the estimated costs to sell, net of write-downs taken in the prior period, and therefore no gain or loss was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company recorded $0.7 million of land and $0.8 million of buildings, net of accumulated depreciation, of one property that met the held for sale criteria, to assets held for sale at a total fair value of $0.8 million, which are included in prepaid and other current assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimated the fair value of the property based on a communicated selling price for one property, which is a Level 3 input. Recurring Measurements The fair values of the Company’s cash equivalents measured on a recurring basis pursuant to ASC 820-10 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures are carried at estimated fair value. Cash equivalents consist of money market accounts which the Company has classified as Level 1 given the active market for these accounts. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had cash equivalents, measured at fair value, of $0.3 million. The Company holds an investment in Oklo Inc. (“Oklo”) made during the three months ended September 30, 2023. In May 2024, Oklo was acquired by a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company which resulted in the conversion of the Company’s investment into common shares of Oklo, which are traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The Company measures this investment in equity securities at fair value using Level 1 inputs based on quoted prices in an active market. As of June 30, 2024, the fair value of the investment was estimated at $17.4 million. The change in Oklo’s fair value resulted in an unrealized gain of $7.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, included as a component of other expense, net in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, during the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company purchased depository interests representing shares of common stock in Tamboran Resources Corporation (“Tamboran”). In June 2024, Tamboran executed an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) and listed its common stock on the New York Stock Exchange. In addition to the prior purchase of depository interests, the Company participated in Tamboran’s IPO by purchasing an additional $10.0 million of Tamboran’s common stock. The Company measures this investment in equity securities at fair value using Level 1 inputs based on quoted prices in an active market. As of June 30, 2024, the fair value of the investment was estimated at $20.1 million. The change in Tamboran’s fair value resulted in an unrealized loss of $0.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, included as a component of other expense, net in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Nonfinancial assets The Company estimates fair value to perform impairment tests as required on long-lived assets. The inputs used to determine such fair value are primarily based upon internally developed cash flow models and would generally be classified within Level 3 in the event that such assets were required to be measured and recorded at fair value within the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. No such measurements were required as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 as no triggering event was identified. Credit Risk The Company’s financial instruments exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, and trade receivables. The Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances on deposit with financial institutions total $30.0 million and $36.8 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, which exceeded FDIC insured limits. The Company regularly monitors these institutions’ financial condition. The majority of the Company’s customers have payment terms of 45 days or less. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no c ustomers accounted for more than 10% o f total consolidated accounts receivable and unbilled revenue. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, customer A accounted for 12% and 14% of consolidated revenues, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, customer B accounted for 11% of consolidated revenues. No other customers accounted for more than 10% of revenues during the respective periods. The Company mitigates the associated credit risk by performing credit evaluations and monitoring the payment patterns of its customers. The Company applies historic loss factors to its receivable portfolio segments that are not expected to be further impacted by current economic developments, and an additional economic conditions factor to portfolio segments anticipated to experience greater losses in the current economic environment. While the Company has not experienced significant credit losses in the past and has not seen material changes to the payment patterns of its customers, the Company cannot predict with any certainty the degree to which unforeseen events may affect the ability of its customers to timely pay receivables when due. Accordingly, in future periods, the Company may revise its estimates of expected credit losses. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $0.9 million in allowance for credit losses as follows: ($ in thousands) Provision for credit losses on December 31, 2023 $ 939 Credit Losses: Current period provision — Amounts written off — Provision for credit losses on June 30, 2024 $ 939

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company is a corporation and is subject to taxation in the United States, Canada, Australia and various state, local and provincial jurisdictions. Historically, Liberty LLC was treated as a partnership, and its income was passed through to its owners for income tax purposes. Liberty LLC’s members, including the Company, were liable for federal, state and local income taxes based on their share of Liberty LLC’s pass-through taxable income. Effective January 31, 2023, the Company adopted a plan of merger, pursuant to which Liberty LLC merged into the Company, ceasing the existence of Liberty LLC with the Company remaining as the surviving entity. Liberty LLC filed a final tax return during the 2023 calendar year. The Company is still party to the TRAs; the associated liabilities are discussed below. On October 8, 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) released a statement on the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting, which agreed to a two-pillar solution to address tax challenges of the digital economy. On December 20, 2021, the OECD released Pillar Two model rules defining a 15% global minimum tax rate for large multinational corporations (the “Pillar Two Framework”). On June 20, 2024, Canada enacted the Pillar Two global minimum tax regime, which is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The OECD continues to release additional guidance and countries are implementing legislation, with widespread adoption of the Pillar Two Framework expected by 2025. The Company is continuing to evaluate the Pillar Two Framework and its potential impact on future periods, including any legislation enacted in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company may distribute cash from foreign subsidiaries to its U.S. parent as business needs arise. The Company has not provided for deferred income taxes on the undistributed earnings from certain foreign subsidiaries, as such earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. If such earnings were to be distributed, any income and/or withholding tax is not expected to be significant. The effective global income tax rate applicable to the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 23.7%, compared to 24.4% for the period ended June 30, 2023. The Company’s effective tax rate is greater than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% due to the Company’s Canadian operations, state income taxes in the states the Company operates, as well as nondeductible executive compensation. The Company recognized income tax expense of $32.6 million and $59.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The Company recognized income tax expense of $47.3 million and $101.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company recognized a net deferred tax liability in the amount of $102.3 million. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Tax Receivable Agreements In connection with the IPO, on January 17, 2018, the Company entered into two Tax Receivable Agreements (the “TRAs”) with R/C Energy IV Direct Partnership, L.P. and the then existing owners that continued to own units in Liberty LLC (“Liberty LLC Units”) (each such person and any permitted transferee, a “TRA Holder” and together, the “TRA Holders”). The TRAs generally provide for the payment by the Company 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 the Company actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) in periods after the IPO as a result, as applicable to each TRA Holder, of (i) certain increases in tax basis that occur as a result of the Company’s acquisition (or deemed acquisition for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of all or a portion of such TRA Holder’s Liberty LLC Units in connection with the IPO or pursuant to the exercise of redemption or call rights, (ii) any net operating losses available to the Company as a result of the Corporate Reorganization, and (iii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of, and additional tax basis arising from, any payments the Company makes under the TRAs. On January 31, 2023, the last redemption of the Liberty LLC Units occurred. As such, the Company recorded an increase of $7.8 million of deferred tax assets for the impact of the adopted plan of merger of Liberty LLC into the Company. Additionally, exchanges of Liberty LLC Units and shares of Class B Common Stock resulted in a net increase of $0.7 million in deferred tax assets, and an increase of $0.6 million in amounts payable under the TRAs, all of which was recorded through equity during the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, the Company ’ s liability under the TRAs was $112.4 million of which $37.4 million is payable within the next 12 months, and $75.0 million thereafter. The Company made TRA payments of $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company ’

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read together with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes present the condensed consolidated financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the results of operations and equity of the Company as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the entire fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Further, these estimates and other factors, including those outside the Company’s control, such as the impact of sustained lower commodity prices, could have a significant adverse impact to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. All intercompany amounts have been eliminated in the presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company’s operations are organized into a single reportable segment, which consists of hydraulic fracturing and related goods and services.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , which requires more detailed disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, related to the Company’s reportable segment. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Although the Company has only one reportable segment, the Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements. Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , which requires disaggregation of certain components included in the Company’s effective tax rate and income taxes paid disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements but does not expect it will have a material impact.
