SAMUEL D. SLEDGE

Chief Executive Officer and Director

Dear Stockholders,

2024 was a pivotal year for ProPetro. Thanks to the hard work of our team, we continued to see the benefits of our strategic execution, with further fleet transition, the establishment of our PROPWRSM power generation business, disciplined capital allocation and consistent operational excellence in our existing service lines. Our continued execution as well as our ongoing investments in upgrading and transitioning our fleet and service offerings and our commitment to supporting the development of our new PROPWRSM business all support our conviction that our business will remain resilient through the cycles and that we will be positioned for success in what remains a disciplined market for oilfield services.

​2024 BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS​

​

Realized continued benefits from our optimization program which together with disciplined capital management allowed us to realize almost 60% lower capital expenditures compared to 2023

​

Established our PROPWRSM power generation business and placed initial orders for approximately 140 megawatts (MW) of power generation equipment

​

Repurchased and retired approximately 7.2 million shares in 2024, with total repurchases of approximately 13 million shares representing approximately 11% of our outstanding common stock at the time the repurchase plan commenced in May 2023

​

Continued the execution of our fleet transition, deploying two additional FORCE® fleets and we expect one additional FORCE® fleet to be deployed in 2025

​

Our FORCE® electric fleets, along with our Tier IV DGB Dual-fuel fleets, now represent approximately 75% of our hydraulic fracturing capacity

​

We published our second ProPetro ProEnergy ProPeople Sustainability Report

​

​

Message from Our Chief Executive Officer

​Thanks to the continued hard work of our team, we remain positioned to execute on our strategic objectives and to support the development of reliable, consistent, efficient and secure sources of energy. We believe this approach will drive value creation for our stockholders.​
​LOOKING AHEAD​

2024 showed again the strength and operational excellence of our team. As we look ahead to 2025, we expect our customers to remain disciplined. We believe ProPetro is well positioned to see continued success in this environment and that demand for top tier service providers like ProPetro will remain stable in a challenging market.

To support our success, ProPetro will remain focused on its disciplined and dynamic capital allocation strategy. As we look to 2025, we expect our approach to focus on four key elements:

First, launching and scaling PROPWRSM, which we believe will be a key pillar of future growth;

​

Second, investing in our next-generation fleet transition, helping to ensure we remain the premier provider of low-emission, high-efficiency pressure pumping services;

​

Third, executing on accretive M&A transactions and optimizing our portfolio; and

​

Fourth, returning capital to shareholders through our share repurchase program.

​

We began 2025 with great momentum, a strong foundation and a clear vision for the future. Despite the recent tariff announcements, OPEC+ production increases, and potential other challenges the year may present, we believe opportunities lie ahead and that we are well positioned to weather these challenges and capitalize on available opportunities. Our fleet modernization efforts will continue to drive efficiencies for our customers while enhancing our competitive positioning. At the same time, the introduction of PROPWRSM offers an exciting opportunity for growth using our existing operational strengths and customer network to support the development of this new business line. With a strong balance sheet, disciplined capital allocation and management, and an unwavering focus on operational excellence, we believe 2025 will be another positive year for ProPetro.

​2025 ANNUAL MEETING​

Thank you for your continued support of ProPetro. We look forward to you joining us at our annual meeting of stockholders on May 20, 2025.

Sincerely,

Samuel D. Sledge
