Addendum: Non-GAAP Financial Measures 12 © 2018 Archrock, Inc. All rights reserved.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Archrock Non-GAAP Measures EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income (loss) excluding income (loss) from discontinued operations (net of tax), income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, long-lived asset impairment, restructuring and other charges, corporate office relocation costs, expensed acquisition costs, indemnification (income) expense, net, restatement and other charges, debt extinguishment costs, and other items. Cash available for dividend, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as distributions received by us from Archrock Partners, L.P., plus our deconsolidated gross margin, less the following deconsolidated items: maintenance and other capital expenditures, cash sales, general and administrative expense excluding corporate office relocation costs, cash interest expense associated with our debt, cash tax and (gain) loss on sale of property, plant and equipment. Cash available for dividend coverage is defined as cash available for dividend divided by total dividends. Archrock is unable, without unreasonable efforts, to provide a quantitative reconciliation of its preliminary non-GAAP outlook of EBITDA or cash available for dividend coverage because net income or loss, maintenance and other capital expenditures, expense or benefit from income taxes, and cash tax expense or refund cannot be estimated due to the level of unpredictability and uncertainty associated with these items. For these same reasons, Archrock is unable to assess the probable significance of these excluded items. 13 © 2018 Archrock, Inc. All rights reserved.
