Current report
In the first nine months of 2025, Select executed seven asset acquisitions totaling $24.4 million, enhancing current and future water infrastructure capabilities. These asset acquisitions added disposal capacity, pipeline capacity, surface rights, and over 400 acres of land and also improved connectivity with customers by enhancing infrastructure and connectivity across operational sites andposition Select for future growth and operational efficiency in the Water Infrastructure segment. We also acquired certain wastewater treatment facilities for the accommodation and rentals business line in the Permian and Eagle Ford regions for $1.7 million. Further, the Company paid $7.5 million to purchase its corporate headquarters building in Gainesville, Texas, which was previously subject to a lease agreement.

Peak Rental Update
Current report
In August 2025, we announced that we had started an evaluation of strategic alternatives for Peak Rentals, our equipment rental and distributed power business within the Water Services segment. This evaluation includes a range of potential paths forward, including capital structure initiatives and other portfolio optimization opportunities. As of September 30, 2025, no transaction is pending or imminent, and we continue to own 100% of the business. We are continuing to evaluate strategic alternatives for Peak Rentals in the ordinary course; however, there can be no assurance that any particular outcome will ultimately be pursued or completed.
Current report
*Water Infrastructure.*Revenue decreased $3.2 million, or 3.9%, to $78.8 million for the Current Quarter compared to $82.0 million for the Prior Quarter. The decline was primarily driven by lower recycling revenues, reflecting key
Current report
customer activity timing, a combination of macroeconomic factors, including a reduction in hydraulic fracturing crews impacting activity and key customer activity timing, as well as lower Bakken activity. This was partially offset by increased disposal and solids revenues, supported by the expansion of our asset base through recent acquisitions.
Current report
Costs of revenue decreased $30.2 million, or 9.8%, to $278.7 million for the Current Quarter compared to $308.9 million for the Prior Quarter. The decrease was primarily composed of a $49.2 million decrease in** **Water Services costs partially offset by a $12.9 million increase in Chemical Technologies costs, a $1.5 million increase in Water Infrastructure costs and a $4.7 million increase in depreciation, amortization and accretion.
Current report
Water Infrastructure. Costs of revenue increased $1.5 million, or 4.1%, to $37.0 million for the Current Quarter compared to $35.5 million for the Prior Quarter. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue increased from 43.3% to 46.9% primarily due to lower recycling margins, driven by reduced revenue levels. This was partially offset by modest margin improvement in disposal and solids margins, reflecting higher revenue contributions and continued integration of recently acquired assets.
Current report
Water Services. Costs of revenue decreased $49.2 million, or 26.5%, to $136.8 million for the Current Quarter compared to $186.0 million for the Prior Quarter. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased from 79.5% in the Prior Quarter to 82.0% in the Current Quarter. The increase was primarily impacted by lower revenue levels in the Water Transfer, Well Testing and Accommodation and Rentals business lines, as not all costs could be proportionally reduced. This increase was also impacted by a decline in water sourcing revenue, reflecting a transition from fresh water to produced water operations. This was partially offset by higher poly and containment margins stemming from the right-sizing of vehicle and equipment rentals, and higher Fluids Hauling margins, favorably impacted by the divestment of lower margin operations in connection with the Omni transaction.
Current report
During the Current Quarter, we recognized $2.3 million in impairments and abandonments primarily due to the abandonment of a SWD well in the Water Infrastructure segment.

term contracts and the continued organic buildout of our recycling infrastructure, as well as higher disposal and solids revenues reflecting contributions from recently acquired assets. These gains were partially offset by a combination of macroeconomic factors, including a reduction in hydraulic fracturing crews impacting activity and key customer activity timing and reduced activity levels in the Bakken.
Current report
Water Services. Revenue decreased $84.1 million, or 12.2%, to $608.2 million for the Current Period compared to $692.3 million in the Prior Period. The decrease was primarily driven by lower Water Sourcing revenue following the conversion from freshwater to produced water operations, reduced fluids hauling revenue reflecting the divestiture of operations in connection with the Omni transaction and broader macroeconomic softness, and lower Well Testing revenue, also impacted by macroeconomic conditions.
Current report
Costs of revenue decreased $24.0 million, or 2.6%, to $903.8 million for the Current Period compared to $927.7 million for the Prior Period. The decrease was primarily composed of a $54.1 million decrease in Water Services costs partially offset by a $16.1 million increase in Chemical Technologies costs, a $3.9 million increase in Water Infrastructure costs and a $10.1 million increase in depreciation, amortization and accretion.
Current report
Water Infrastructure. Costs of revenue increased $3.9 million, or 3.8%, to $106.7 million for the Current Period compared to $102.8 million for the Prior Period. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue decreased from 48.0% to 46.0% primarily driven by higher margins in gathering, disposal, and solids operations, reflecting both the accretive impact of recently acquired assets and effective integration execution. Pipeline margins were also higher in the period. These increases were partially offset by modest declines in higher margin recycling operations, primarily reflecting changes in service mix.

Current report
EBITDA was $53.6 million for the Current Quarter compared to $66.1 million for the Prior Quarter. The $12.5 million decrease in EBITDA was driven primarily by a $14.2 million decrease in gross profit, $5.3 million less in equity earnings in unconsolidated investments, a $4.4 million increase in selling, general and administrative expense and a $2.3 million increase in impairments and abandonments partially offset by the $14.9 million remeasurement gain on business combination with Omni. Adjusted EBITDA was $59.5 million for the Current Quarter compared to $72.8 million for the Prior Quarter.

Water Services. Costs of revenue decreased $5.0 million, or 2.8%, to $173.3 million for the Current Quarter compared to $178.3 million for the Prior Quarter. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased from 77.5% in the Prior Quarter to 80.4% in the Current Quarter. This increase was primarily driven by a decline in water sourcing revenue and reduced margins in the water transfer, poly and containment and well testing business lines, reflecting selective price reductions implemented to retain key customer relationships. These impacts were partially offset by improved gross margins in our fluids hauling business lines, attributable to continued cost discipline, operational efficiencies and consolidation activities.

Select is prioritizing investments in Water Infrastructure projects, which often bring a more predictable and steady revenue stream through long-term contracts and production-related operations. These investments typically produce higher gross margins and also foster stronger partnerships with customers, as Select becomes an integral partnerin ensuring well productivity for ongoing customer production over the life of a well. Our focus is on integrated solutions that enhance contracted infrastructure projects with logistics services and chemical solutions, and expanding the value we provide to our customers. Our approach, historically and during the year ended December 31, 2024, has been to streamline operations and offer a more comprehensive and valuable overall package to customers that is built around optimizing the entire water lifecycle as such integrated solutions drive revenue growth and enhance overall value to clients.

In addition, since 2021, OPEC+ countries have instituted production cuts (as well as voluntary production cuts), which currently cut output by approximately 4.66 million barrels/day in the aggregate, comprised of a core production cut of 3.66 million barrels/day and voluntary production cuts of approximately 1.0 million barrels/day, which is set to be fully unwound by the end of September. Most recently, on July 28, 2025, OPEC+ reaffirmed the existing production cuts including the next scheduled winddown of 0.5 million barrels/day of voluntary production cuts in August. OPEC+ may, at its discretion, continue to decrease, or increase, production, which will continue to impact crude oil and natural gas price volatility. The actions of OPEC+ countries with respect to oil production levels and announcements of potential changes in such levels, including agreement on and compliance with production targets, may result in volatility in the industry in which we and our customers operate. The average price of West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil decreased in the Current Quarter versus the Prior Quarter due to a combination of factors, including heightened trade tensions, weakening global demand, rising domestic production, the threat of a global recession and increased production from OPEC+ countries. During the Current Quarter, the average spot price of WTI crude oil was $64.57 versus an average price of $81.81 for the Prior Quarter.

Separately, global macroeconomic developments, such as the development or change in international trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs, may adversely affect our ability to source raw materials and the demand for our services. While we have positioned ourselves to largely not be reliant on any sole supplier and believe we would beable to find alternative sources for our raw materials, any trading disruption (such as tariffs, product restrictions, etc.) in the trading relationships between the U.S. and other nations may adversely impact our business. For instance, on April 2, 2025, the United States government announced that a 10% base tariff will be applied to all imports to the United States effective April 5, 2025, subject to limited exceptions for Mexico and Canada, and that almost 60 countries will, in lieu of the 10% base tariff, be assigned higher reciprocal tariffs on imports that extend as high as 50%, effective April 9, 2025. Although most of the reciprocal tariffs were later suspended and replaced by a base tariff of 10% for a period of 90 days, it is uncertain if and to what extent the tariffs may be reimposed. For instance, despite the suspension of most reciprocal tariffs, the governments of the U.S. and China maintained substantial tariffs on one another, before eventually agreeing to temporarily roll back certain of the tariffs in May 2025. Tariffs and any additional changes in U.S. trade policy could result in one or more other jurisdictions adopting responsive trade policies. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs or trade agreements or policies has the potential to adversely impact us and the global economy.

While we have positioned ourselves to largely not be reliant on any sole supplier and believe we would beable to find alternative sources for our raw materials, any trading disruption (such as tariffs, product restrictions, etc.) in the trading relationships between the U.S. and other nations may adversely impact our business. For instance, beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the U.S. imposed new or additional tariffs, through executive orders, on a variety of imported raw materials and products, including steel and aluminum. In response to the U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum, the European Union and several other countries, including Canada and China, have threatened and/or imposed retaliatory tariffs. We continue to monitor the effects of the ever-evolving global trade landscape, including with respect to sanctions, tariffs, existing trade agreements, anti-dumping and countervailing duty regulations and more. President Trump has threatened additional increased tariffs on goods imported from China as result of current Chinese trade policy. A portion of those tariffs might by overturned depending on the resolution of certain U.S. litigation. Specifically, the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case determining whether a federal law giving the president certain emergency powers allowed President Trump to levy tariffs on nearly all goods imported into the United States through a series of executive orders. The Court is scheduled to begin hearing oral arguments on November 5, with a ruling on the challenges potentially expected at the end of 2025. Tariffs and any additional changes in U.S. trade policy could result in one or more other jurisdictions adopting responsive trade policies. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs or trade agreements or policies has the potential to adversely impact us and the global economy.

From an operational standpoint, many of the recent efficiency trends still apply to ongoing unconventional oil and gas development. The continued trend towards multi-well pad development and simultaneous well completions, executed within a limited time frame, combined with service price inflation and elevated interest rates, has increased the overall intensity, complexity and cost of well completions, while increasing fracturing efficiency and the use of lower-cost in-basin sand has decreased total costs for our customers. However, we note the continued efficiency gains in the

We view EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as important indicators of performance. We define EBITDA as net income, plus interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation, amortization and accretion. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus any impairment and abandonment charges or asset write-offs pursuant to GAAP, plus non-cash losses on the sale of assets or subsidiaries, non-recurring compensation expense, non-cash compensation expense, and non-recurring or unusual expenses or charges, including severance expenses, transaction costs, or facilities-related exit and disposal-related expenditures, plus/(minus) foreign currency losses/(gains), plus/(minus) losses/(gains) on unconsolidated entities and plus tax receivable agreements expense. The adjustments to EBITDA are generally consistent with such adjustments described in our Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility. See “—Comparison of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for more information and a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, plus proceeds received from sales of property and equipment. Our board of directors and executive management team use free cash flow to assess our liquidity and ability to fund operations, make additional investments, pay dividends and distributions, repay maturing debt and repurchase common stock. We believe free cash flow provides similarly useful information to investors for assessing the recent and ongoing financial and operational performance, outlook and liquidity position of the Company. Our measure of free cash flow may not be directly comparable to similar measures reported by other companies. Furthermore, free cash flow is not a substitute for, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities nor any other measure prescribed by GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP measures such as free cash flow. Accordingly, free cash flow should not be considered a measure of the income generated by our business or discretionary cash available to it to invest in the growth of our business.
