Management Commentary and Outlook

“Momentum in Archrock’s earnings power is carrying into 2024, reflecting our excellent operating execution, high-quality asset base and innovative processes and technology,” said Brad Childers, Archrock’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continued to deliver meaningful growth in quarterly revenue, gross margin and adjusted EBITDA. In addition, strong cash flow is funding high-return investment in our fleet and increased return of capital to investors, while we also continue to maintain a sector-leading balance sheet and excellent financial flexibility.

“As we look to the balance of 2024, we expect to sustain historically high levels of utilization, pricing and profitability. Confidence in our business and the opportunity-rich market are enabling us to raise the midpoint of our Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year.

“Expanding on the favorable and durable macro environment, strong oil prices are driving sustainable compression demand in our key associated gas markets, led by the Permian Basin. In addition, Archrock as well as producers, midstreamers and others in the compression industry continue to demonstrate prudent capital discipline. Longer term, we believe natural gas has tremendous potential to meet growing energy needs, particularly for LNG exports and domestic power generation and we are excited to be a crucial part of the value chain to provide cleaner, affordable and reliable energy to the U.S. and the world,” concluded Childers.

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Archrock’s first quarter 2024 net income of $40.5 million included a non-cash long-lived and other asset impairment of $2.6 million. Archrock’s first quarter 2023 net income of $16.5 million included a non-cash long-lived and other asset impairment of $2.6 million and restructuring charges of $1.0 million.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 included $2.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively, in net gains related to the sale of compression and other assets.

Contract Operations

For the first quarter of 2024, contract operations segment revenue totaled $223.1 million, an increase of 19% compared to $187.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. Gross margin (a non-GAAP measure defined below) was $145.3 million for the first quarter of

2024, up 34% from $108.3 million in the first quarter of 2023. Gross margin percentage was 65% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 58% in the first quarter of 2023. Total operating horsepower at the end of the first quarter of 2024 was 3.6 million compared to 3.5 million at the end of the first quarter of 2023. Utilization at the end of the first quarter of 2024 was 95%, compared to 94% at the end of the first quarter of 2023.

On a sequential basis, first quarter 2024 exit utilization was down slightly as we took delivery of new build units totaling 19,500 horsepower in March 2024 that were included in total available horsepower but not reflected in total operating horsepower as the units did not begin generating revenue until April 2024.

Aftermarket Services

For the first quarter of 2024, aftermarket services segment revenue totaled $45.4 million, compared to $42.1 million in the first quarter of 2023. Gross margin of $10.4 million for the first quarter of 2024 increased 27% compared to $8.2 million in the first quarter of 2023. Gross margin percentage was 23% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 19% for the first quarter of 2023.

Balance Sheet

Long-term debt was $1.6 billion at March 31, 2024 and our available liquidity totaled $477.7 million. Our leverage ratio was 3.2x, compared to 4.1x as of March 31, 2023.

Shareholder Returns

Quarterly Dividend

Our Board of Directors recently declared a quarterly dividend of $0.165 per share of common stock, or $0.66 per share on an annualized basis. Dividend coverage in the first quarter of 2024 was 3.2x. The first quarter 2024 dividend will be paid on May 14, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 7, 2024.

Share Repurchase Program

During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, Archrock repurchased 82,972 common shares at an average price of $14.83 per share, for an aggregate of approximately $1.2 million. Through March 31, 2024, the Company has repurchased 833,346 common shares at an average price of $12.11 per share for an aggregate of $10.1 million.

The Board of Directors approved an extension of the Company’s share repurchase program (“Share Repurchase Program”) upon expiry of the previous authorization on April 27, 2024, for an additional 24-month period. In connection with the extension, the Board of Directors replenished the amount of shares authorized for repurchase under the Share Repurchase Program, resulting in available capacity of $50 million.

2024 Annual Guidance

Archrock is providing updated annual guidance as listed below. All figures are in thousands, except percentages and ratios:

Full Year 2024 Guidance
Low High
Net income (1) $ 144,000 $ 174,000
Adjusted EBITDA (2) 510,000 540,000
Cash available for dividend (3)(4) 300,000 320,000
Segment
Contract operations revenue $ 890,000 $ 915,000
Contract operations gross margin percentage 65 % 66 %
Aftermarket services revenue $ 175,000 $ 185,000
Aftermarket services gross margin percentage 20 % 21 %
Selling, general and administrative $ 124,000 $ 120,000
Capital expenditures
Growth capital expenditures $ 190,000 $ 190,000
Maintenance capital expenditures 80,000 85,000
Other capital expenditures 20,000 25,000


(1) 2024 annual guidance for net income includes $3.0 million of long-lived and other asset impairment as of March 31, 2024, but does not include the impact of any such future costs, because due to its nature, it cannot be accurately forecasted. Long-lived and other asset impairment does not impact Adjusted EBITDA or cash available for dividend, however it is a reconciling item between these measures and net income. Long-lived and other asset impairment for the years 2023 and 2022 was $12.0 million and $21.4 million, respectively.
(2) Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because this non-GAAP measure, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons.
(3) Management uses cash available for dividend as a supplemental performance measure to compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned dividends.
(4) A forward-looking estimate of cash provided by operating activities is not provided because certain items necessary to estimate cash provided by operating activities, including changes in assets and liabilities, are not estimable at this time. Changes in assets and liabilities were $(28.0) million and $(24.5) million for 2023 and 2022, respectively.

(1) 2024 annual guidance for net income includes $3.0 million of long-lived and other asset impairment as of March 31, 2024, but does not include the impact of any such future costs, because due to its nature, it cannot be accurately forecasted. Long-lived and other asset impairment does not impact Adjusted EBITDA or cash available for dividend, however it is a reconciling item between these measures and net income. Long-lived and other asset impairment for the years 2023 and 2022 was $12.0 million and $21.4 million, respectively.
(2) Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because this non-GAAP measure, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons.
(3) Management uses cash available for dividend as a supplemental performance measure to compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned dividends.
(4) A forward-looking estimate of cash provided by operating activities is not provided because certain items necessary to estimate cash provided by operating activities, including changes in assets and liabilities, are not estimable at this time. Changes in assets and liabilities were $(28.0) million and $(24.5) million for the years 2023 and 2022, respectively.
