HOUSTON, November 2, 2017 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Solaris Oilfield Infrastructure, Inc. (NYSE:SOI) (“Solaris” or the “Company”), a leading manufacturer and provider of patented mobile proppant management systems for oil and natural gas well sites, today reported financial results for the third quarter 2017, as further described in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) today.

 

Third Quarter 2017 Financial Review

 

Solaris reported net income of $7.4 million for third quarter 2017, compared to net income of $0.7 million in third quarter 2016 and net income of $1.1 million in second quarter 2017. Third quarter 2017 net income included certain non-recurring expenses, including approximately $617,000 of IPO-related compensation expense, $41,000 related to a loss on disposal of assets and $36,000 of non-recurring transaction costs.

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter was $11.2 million, an increase of $9.5 million from third quarter 2016 and an increase of $3.7 million compared to second quarter 2017. A description of adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to net income, its most directly comparable GAAP measure, is provided below.

 

Revenues were $18.5 million for the quarter, an increase of $13.7 million, or 289%, compared to third quarter 2016, and an increase of $5.1 million, or 38%, compared to second quarter 2017.

 

During third quarter 2017, the Company generated 4,564 revenue days, the combined number of days that its systems earned revenue during the quarter, a 202% increase from third quarter 2016, and up 35% compared to second quarter 2017. Customer demand and adoption rates for Solaris’ systems continue to grow as proppant consumption levels increase across the industry and customers realize the benefits of Solaris’ technology.

 

Capital Expenditures and Liquidity

 

Driven by strong customer demand and continued customer adoption of our proppant management systems and services, the Company invested $27.6 million in capital equipment during third quarter 2017 and added fifteen systems to the fleet, ending the quarter with 59 systems. These investments help address rising customer demand and are expected to drive future earnings and cash flow growth for Solaris. The Company’s third quarter capital expenditures included $4.8 million in long-lead item purchases made in connection with the construction of the Kingfisher Facility.

 

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had $54.0 million in cash and $20.0 million of availability under the undrawn credit facility for total liquidity of $74.0 million.

 

Operational Update

 

We currently have 68 systems in the rental fleet, with more than 90% of the systems deployed to customers who are renting multiple Solaris systems.

 

We recently began operations with our new non-pneumatic loading option, which provides additional proppant transportation flexibility, allowing our customers to use belly-dump trucks in addition to the industry standard pneumatic trucks to fill and maintain inventory in our systems.

 

In August, Solaris broke ground on the Kingfisher Facility and construction is progressing on schedule. Solaris plans to take first delivery of proppant at the facility in January 2018, with the final completion of the initial phase by August 2018. Solaris is engaged in discussions with additional tenants interested in obtaining capacity at the Kingfisher Facility.


 

 

Outlook

 

We are currently manufacturing approximately six systems per month. We have been able to reach this manufacturing rate through selective outsourcing of certain components of our systems. Based on our accelerated manufacturing cadence, we have increased our end of year system outlook to between 74 to 76 systems, an increase from the previous guidance of 68 to 72 systems. In addition, we have refined our 2017 capital expenditure guidance to between $85 million to $95 million as a result of the increased system deliveries.

 

Solaris recently executed customer agreements to term up the rental of mobile proppant management systems for a minimum of twelve months. These long-term arrangements provide enhanced visability into future earnings and highlight the crtical nature and value of our services.

 

Solaris’ Chief Executive Officer Greg Lanham commented, “We are excited about the continued adoption of our technology and service offering. As the industry continues to pump ever increasing amounts of sand per well and transition towards manufacturing style development of plays – including multi-well pads and multi-zone development of acreage – innovative and integrated logistics solutions are required to help drive supply chain costs down and provide certainty of execution. We believe our current fleet of 68 systems represents the industry’s leading market share for new technology proppant handling solutions. We continue to increase system deployments with our existing customers and gain adoption with new customers.

 

“We are also excited about the continued adoption of our propriatery inventory management system, PropView™. We currently have more than 125 registered third-party users of PropView™, with users spanning across the supply chain – from E&P procurement departments to pressure pumping logistic teams to last mile trucking companies. We believe the integration of our well site systems and the Kingfisher Facility with PropView™ uniquely position us to provide insight across the supply chain which we expect will drive continued market share growth.”

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFROMATION — ADJUSTED EBITDA

 

(In thousands)

 

(Unaudited)

 

We view EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as important indicators of performance. We define EBITDA as net income (loss), plus (i) depreciation and amortization expense, (ii) interest expense and (iii) income tax expense, including franchise taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (i) unit-based compensation expense and (ii) certain non-cash charges and unusual or non-recurring charges.

 

We believe that our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. Net income is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to net income presented in accordance with GAAP. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. The following table presents a reconciliation of Net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods indicated.
