Current report
In September 2026, we amended the Alpine 2023 Term Loan to extend its maturity to February 2030 and to defer the timing of required principal repayments. See “Note 4. Debt” in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the amendment to the Alpine 2023 Term Loan. In addition, (a) certain Wilks Parties purchased $60.0 million in principal amount of Alpine 2023 Term Loans, (b) ProFrac GDM, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, transferred approximately 2.3 million shares of Flotek common stock to such Wilks Parties and (c) Alpine 2023 Term Loan lenders agreed that only such purchased term loans (including any prepayment premium or make-whole amount) were deemed to be repaid in full and cancelled. The remaining Alpine 2023 Term Loans remained outstanding.
Current report
In September 2026, Flotek entered into a senior secured term loan credit agreement that matures in September 2031, providing for an initial term loan of $75.0 million. Flotek used a portion of these proceeds to repay in full all outstanding obligations under, and terminated, the Flotek PWRtek Note. Flotek expects to use the remaining proceeds to fund capital expenditures, working capital and general corporate purposes.

Stimulation Services. Stimulation Services revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased $78.4 million and decreased $41.6 million, or 23% and 3%, respectively, from the same periods in 2025. The increase for the third quarter compared to the same period in 2025 was due to an increase in proppant and chemistry volumes and pricing as well as higher average pricing for our services, which was partially offset by a decrease in average active fleets. The decrease for the first nine months of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 was due to decreased average active fleets and lower average pricing for our services in the first six months of the period, which was partially offset by the increases discussed above in the third quarter.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
Current report
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recognized a $3.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt primarily related to the termination of our 2022 ABL Credit Facility.
Current report
Historically, our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and availability under our revolving credit facility. Additional sources of liquidity in 2026 have included the issuance of $25.0 million of 2029 Senior Notes in the first quarter of 2026 and a new $300.0 million revolving credit facility, entered into in July 2026, that replaced our existing revolving credit facility and eliminated the $45.0 million minimum availability covenant under that facility, as discussed further below. In addition, in September 2026 we reduced the outstanding principal amount of the Alpine 2023 Term Loan by $60.0 million through a non-cash exchange of shares of Flotek common stock held by us, as described under “—2026 Developments” above.
Current report
September 30, 2026 through March 31, 2028, and Alpine is required to make quarterly excess cash flow payments. The Alpine Term Loan September 2026 Amendment also amended ProFrac Holding Corp.’s guarantee of the Alpine 2023 Term Loan to restrict ProFrac Holding Corp.’s ability to make distributions of cash or other property, subject to customary exceptions and a $1.0 million annual basket. Refer to our Annual Report and "Note 4. Debt" in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the Alpine 2023 Term Loan.
Current report
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash provided by operations, availability under our revolving credit facility, and anticipated proceeds from certain planned liquidity initiatives, along with the cost-reduction and capital-discipline initiatives described in our Annual Report, will be sufficient to fund our capital expenditures, satisfy our obligations, and remain in compliance with our existing debt covenants for at least the next 12 months These initiatives include contemplated dispositions of certain non-core assets that are not necessary to support our ongoing operations and are available for disposition under our debt arrangements in each case intended to enhance our liquidity and reduce indebtedness.
Current report
The timing, amount and availability of proceeds from these initiatives are subject to a number of factors, including the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, applicable approvals and other customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that these initiatives will be completed on the anticipated terms or within the anticipated timeframe, or that they will generate the anticipated proceeds. The amount and timing of any proceeds may differ materially from our current estimates. If we are unable to complete these initiatives as anticipated, we may need to pursue additional actions to preserve or enhance our liquidity.
Current report
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $43.8 million and $31.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. In 2026 cash borrowed net of debt repayments was $44.7 million. In addition, we recorded a non-cash financing transaction whereby we transferred $60.0 million of Flotek common stock in exchange for $60.0 million of debt principal reduction. In 2025 debt repayments net of cash borrowed was $46.1 million, which was offset by $79.0 million of net proceeds from the issuance of our common stock.

Stimulation Services. Stimulation Services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $2.5 million and $120.0 million, or 1% and 13%, respectively, from the same periods in 2025. The decreases were primarily due to decreases in average active fleets and lower average pricing for our services in 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025. The decreases were also due to cold weather related work disruptions in January 2026. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in jobs where we supplied proppant and chemistry.
Previous report
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $51.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with cash used by financing activities of $30.0 million for the same period in 2025. This change was primarily due to increased net borrowings in 2026.

Our business depends on the willingness of E&P companies to make expenditures to explore for, develop, and produce oil and natural gas in the United States. The willingness of E&P companies to undertake these activities is predominantly influenced by current and expected future prices for oil and natural gas. Adverse weather impacted our results early in the first quarter of 2026. In the second quarter of 2026, oil commodity prices were higher than their average in the first quarter of 2026 with increased volatility.
Current wording
Our business depends on the willingness of E&P companies to make expenditures to explore for, develop, and produce oil and natural gas in the United States. The willingness of E&P companies to undertake these activities is predominantly influenced by current and expected future prices for oil and natural gas as well as E&P spending to drill and complete wells. West Texas Intermediate oil prices were volatile late in the second quarter and have recently increased on continued geopolitical disruptions coupled with historically low U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserves. Henry Hub natural gas prices have generally settled between $2.52 and $3.34 per MMBtu from the beginning of the third quarter through October 27, 2026. Natural gas demand is anticipated to increase due to LNG exports in addition to the build out of AI-focused domestic power generation to support scaled data center compute capabilities.
Previous wording
We currently expect increased pricing for our Stimulation Services business in the third quarter of 2026, compared to the second quarter of 2026. We have observed increased customer demand for hydraulic fracturing equipment that can operate with fuel other than diesel as well as a reduced supply of this equipment due to industry attrition. While we have limited visibility for future demand for our products and services, we are encouraged by current market dynamics and increasing customer engagement around 2027 planning.
Current wording
We experienced increased pricing for our Stimulation Services business in the third quarter of 2026, compared to the second quarter of 2026. We have observed increased customer demand for hydraulic fracturing equipment that can operate with fuel other than diesel as well as a reduced supply of this equipment due to industry attrition, equipment cannibalization and lower capital investment. Despite uneven activity in the third quarter, due to unanticipated white space and downtime, fourth quarter utilization has improved and is expected to remain relatively consistent including customary year-end seasonality. We remain constructive on supply and demand fundamentals and pricing as we look ahead to 2027.
Previous wording

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash provided by operations, and the availability under our new revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund our capital expenditures, satisfy our obligations, and remain in compliance with our existing debt covenants for at least the next 12 months. The market for our services is cyclical and if our customers unexpectedly reduce activity levels or the pricing of our products and services unexpectedly declines, we may need to take action to improve our liquidity, which may include selling assets or seeking additional sources of capital. There can be no assurance that any such additional liquidity enhancements will be available, or if available, that they will be on terms acceptable to us or our stakeholders. In addition, Alpine is closely monitoring its forthcoming debt covenant compliance obligation that commences in the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2028. While there can be no assurance, Alpine believes that it will be able to meet, modify, or further defer this debt covenant. See “Note 4. Debt” in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information about this forthcoming debt covenant.
Current wording
The market for our services is cyclical, and if our customers unexpectedly reduce activity levels, the improvement in activity we currently expect beginning in the second quarter of 2027 is delayed, or the pricing of our products and services unexpectedly declines, we may need to take additional actions to improve our liquidity, which may include reducing capital expenditures, selling additional assets or seeking additional sources of capital. There can be no assurance that any such additional liquidity enhancements will be available, or if available, that they will be on terms acceptable to us or our stakeholders.
