  • Record net income of $4.8 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $6.1 million and revenue of $10.3 million
  • Record 2,627 revenue days; 138% increase year-over-year and up 23% versus fourth quarter 2016
  • Added five proppant management systems to the rental fleet; total of 35 systems at quarter-end

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 first quarter 2017, as further described in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) earlier today.

Financial Review

Solaris’ first quarter 2017 financial results were at the top of the range of the preliminary estimate provided in the Company’s final prospectus dated May 11, 2017, filed with the SEC on May 15, 2017.

Net income increased to $4.8 million for first quarter 2017, from a net loss of $(0.1) million in first quarter 2016 and net income of $3.0 million in fourth quarter 2016.

Adjusted EBITDA was $6.1 million for the quarter, up $5.3 million from first quarter 2016 and an increase of $2.0 million compared to fourth quarter 2016. A description of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to net income, its most directly comparable GAAP measure, is provided below.

Revenues were $10.3 million for the quarter, an increase of $7.2 million, or 228%, compared to first quarter 2016, and an increase of $3.0 million, or 42%, compared to fourth quarter 2016. Customer demand for our systems has risen due to increased well completion activity and more proppant being used, on average, per well.

During first quarter 2017, the Company generated 2,627 revenue days, the combined number of days that its systems earned revenues during the quarter, a 138% increase from first quarter 2016, and up 23% compared to fourth quarter 2016.

Capital Expenditures

Driven by strong customer demand, the Company invested $7.6 million in capital equipment during first quarter 2017 to construct additional proppant systems and develop enhancements to its systems’ capabilities. These investments help address rising customer demand and are expected to drive future earnings and cash flow growth for Solaris.

Solaris’ Chief Executive Officer Greg Lanham commented, “Our strong start to 2017 was driven by continued demand from our premier customer base that resulted in a record 2,627 revenue days during the quarter. Our systems’ demonstrated value and our team’s execution strength has led to the continued adoption of our technology. We are manufacturing additional systems to help our customers drive last mile logistics efficiencies, enhance well site proppant management, deliver critical supply chain information and improve overall economics.”

Initial Public Offering and Liquidity

On May 17, 2017, Solaris successfully closed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of 10.1 million shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $12.00 per share. Solaris raised $113.9 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, from the IPO and used a portion of the proceeds to repay all outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s credit facility. To further increase liquidity and financial flexibility, the Company amended its credit agreement, increasing the size of its undrawn revolving facility to $20.0 million.

These actions during second quarter 2017 have enhanced the Company’s financial position since the end of the first quarter. As of March 31, 2017, the Company had $1.8 million in cash, total availability under its credit facility of $8.5 million and $2.9 million of funded debt, of which $2.5 million was indebtedness under the credit facility.

Operational Outlook

Solaris currently has 41 systems in its rental fleet, all of which are deployed with customers. The Company expects to deliver four systems to the rental fleet in June and end the second quarter with 44 systems in the fleet.

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 will provide 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.

            Three months ended     March 31, 2017       2016 Change (in thousands) Net income (loss) $ 4,782 $ (127 ) $ 4,909 Depreciation and amortization 1,164 869 295 Interest expense, net 22 8 14 Income taxes (1) 22 5 17 EBITDA $ 5,990 $ 755 $ 5,235 Non-recurring organizational costs (2) 90 — 90 Unit-based compensation expense (3) 32 36 (4 ) Adjusted EBITDA $ 6,112 $ 791 $ 5,321  

______________

(1)   Income taxes include add-back for franchise tax.   (2) Certain non-recurring organizational costs associated with Solaris’ IPO which are not considered to be offering costs.   (3) Represents non-cash compensation costs related to employee options.
