Market Supply / Demand Dynamics
INVESTMENT THESIS
FMSA’s footprint will be well-suited to meet demand for both local/regional sands in the
Permian and highest quality Northern White Sand across all basins
Permian basin demand expected to grow
~15-20M tons in 2018 and reach ~45-50M
tons by end of 2018
A number of customers have shown interest
in sourcing fine mesh demand locally
Local Permian supply is largely finer grades
with majority 100 mesh
Estimated ~30-40M tons of in basin Permian
capacity to come on line by the end of 2018
Permian demand will be served concurrently
by new cost-effective Permian capacity (100
mesh in particular) as well as Northern
White and Texas Gold® products
Significant Permian demand for 40/70 as
well as vast majority of coarser grades will
continue to be served cost-effectively by
FMSA’s Northern White or Texas Gold®
Demand for finer grades will grow in other
key basins, which can also be efficiently
served by FMSA’s footprint and logistics
network
As FMSA’s I&R business grows it will
continue to consume more finer grades
particularly 100 mesh

Midland Basin
FMSA KERMIT BENEFITS


Unique Opportunity for FMSA
Local Permian supply strengthens FMSA’s position by adding a low-cost, in-basin solution
near the Delaware basin that complements our strong position in the Midland basin
Meets key success criteria for new supply in the Permian basin including access to water,
existing roads and infrastructure, and contiguous reserves of quality sand
Lease structure requires less upfront capital, provides a more variable cost structure
(through royalty on tons sold) and generates higher return on net investment
Finalizing customer contracts for the majority of sand production from both Kermit and
Shakopee with possibility of prepayments from certain customers with long-term
commitments
FMSA KERMIT BENEFITS
Flexibility of lease structure optimizes cash, which enables FMSA to
make investments to grow business and to prepay $50M of term loans
