NOTE 1—BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of the business: Select Water Solutions, Inc. (“we,” “Select Inc.,” “Select” or the “Company”), formerly Select Energy Services, Inc., was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on November 21, 2016. On May 8, 2023, Select Energy Services, Inc.’s Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation became effective upon filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware which, among other things, changed the name of the company from Select Energy Services, Inc. to Select Water Solutions, Inc. to reflect its strategic focus as a water-focused company. We retained our stock ticker “WTTR” trading on the New York Stock Exchange. The Company is a holding company whose sole material asset consists of common units (“SES Holdings LLC Units”) in SES Holdings, LLC (“SES Holdings”).

We are a leading provider of sustainable water-management and chemical solutions to the energy industry in the United States (“U.S.”). As a leader in the water solutions industry, we place the utmost importance on safe, environmentally responsible management of oilfield water throughout the lifecycle of a well. Additionally, we believe that responsibly managing water resources through our operations to help conserve and protect the environment in the communities in which we operate is paramount to our continued success.

*Class A and Class B common stock:*As of March 31, 2024, the Company had both Class A and Class B common shares issued and outstanding. Holders of shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A common stock”) and Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class B common stock”) are entitled toone vote per share and vote together as a single class on all matters presented to our stockholders for their vote or approval.

*Exchange rights:*Under the Eighth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of SES Holdings (the “SES Holdings LLC Agreement”), SES Legacy Holdings LLC (“Legacy Owner Holdco”) and its permitted transferees have the right (an “Exchange Right”) to cause SES Holdings to acquire all or a portion of its SES Holdings LLC Units for, at SES Holdings’ election, (i) shares of Class A common stock at an exchange ratio ofone share of Class A common stock for each SES Holdings LLC Unit exchanged, subject to conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification and other similar transactions or (ii) cash in an amount equal to the Cash Election Value (as defined within the SES Holdings LLC Agreement) of such Class A common stock. Alternatively, upon the exercise of any Exchange Right, Select Inc. has the right (the “Call Right”) to acquire the tendered SES Holdings LLC Units from the exchanging unitholder for, at its election, (i) the number of shares of Class A common stock the exchanging unitholder would have received under the Exchange Right or (ii) cash in an amount equal to the Cash Election Value of such Class A common stock. In connection with any exchange of SES Holdings LLC Units pursuant to an Exchange Right or Call Right, the corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock will be cancelled.

Basis of presentation: The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures required for financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP.

This Quarterly Report relates to the three months ended March 31, 2024 (the “Current Quarter”) and the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Prior Quarter”). The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”), filed with the SEC on February 21, 2024, includes certain definitions and a summary of significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report. All material adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods have been reflected. The results for the Current Quarter may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and all of its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

For investments in subsidiaries that are not wholly-owned, but where the Company exercises control, the equity held by the minority owners and their portion of net income or loss are reflected as noncontrolling interests. Investments in entities in which the Company exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity-method, and investments in entities for which the Company does not have significant control or influence are accounted for using the cost-method or other appropriate basis as applicable. As of March 31, 2024, the Company hadthree equity-method investments. The Company’s investments are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When circumstances indicate that the fair value of its investment is less than its carrying value and the reduction in value is other than temporary, the reduction in value is recognized in earnings. Our investments in unconsolidated entities are summarized below and are included in the assets of our Water Services segment:

Dividends: During the Current Quarter, the Company paid $5.9 million in dividends accounted for as a reduction to additional paid-in capital, $1.0 million of distributions accounted for as a reduction to noncontrolling interests and $0.6 million as a reduction to accrued expenses and other current liabilities. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $0.4 million of dividends payable included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in connection with unvested restricted stock awards. All future dividend payments are subject to quarterly review and approval by the board of directors.

Segment reporting: The Company hasthree reportable segments. Reportable segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s current reportable segments are Water Services, Water Infrastructure, and Chemical Technologies. See “Note 16—Segment Information” for additional information.

Effective June 1, 2023, our CODM began to strategically view and manage certain water sourcing and transfer operations, previously included in our Water Infrastructure segment, as part of our Water Services segment. These changes were driven by multiple factors, including the preponderance of our water sourcing business that integrates with our water transfer operations, the continued transition of completions water demand from fresh and brackish water to recycled water, and the anticipation of more efficient sharing and utilization of resources to realize potential synergies. Prior periods have been recast to include the water sourcing and transfer operations within the Water Services segment and remove the results of those operations from the Water Infrastructure segment.

Concurrently, the Company also decided to rename its Oilfield Chemicals segment as Chemical Technologies. This change was based on a number of factors, including the continued success of our chemicals business in delivering customized, specialty chemicals products developed through our own research and development efforts and the de-emphasis of certain traditional commoditized chemistry products within the oil and gas industry, as well as the continued investments in time and resources we make to manufacture and sell our specialty chemical products into non-oilfield industrial-related applications. We believe these segment changes better align the business with the current and future state of the Company’s operations and capital allocation and strategic objectives. This change was a naming convention only change that did not impact any Current Quarter or Prior Quarter numbers.

The Water Services segment consists of the Company’s services businesses, including water sourcing, water transfer, flowback and well testing, fluids hauling, water monitoring, water containment and water network automation,

primarily serving E&P companies. Additionally, this segment includes the operations of our accommodations and rentals business.

The Water Infrastructure segment consists of the Company’s fixed infrastructure assets, including operations associated with our water distribution pipeline infrastructure, our water recycling solutions, and our produced water gathering systems and saltwater disposal wells (“SWDs”), as well as waste solutions facilities, primarily serving E&P companies.

The Chemical Technologies segment provides technical solutions, products and expertise related to chemical applications in the oil and gas industry. We develop, manufacture, manage logistics and provide a full suite of chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing, stimulation, cementing and well completions for customers ranging from pressure pumpers to major integrated and independent oil and gas producers. This segment also utilizes its chemical experience and lab testing capabilities to customize tailored water treatment solutions designed to optimize the fracturing fluid system in conjunction with the quality of water used in well completions.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to the Company’s prior period consolidated financial information to conform to the current year presentation. These presentation changes did not impact the Company’s consolidated net income, consolidated cash flows, total assets, total liabilities or total stockholders’ equity.

NOTE 2—SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Significant accounting policies: The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the 2023 Form 10-K.

Use of estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to the recoverability of long-lived assets and intangibles, useful lives used in depreciation, amortization and accretion, uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory reserve, income taxes, self-insurance liabilities, share-based compensation, contingent liabilities, lease-related reasonably certain option exercise assessments, and the incremental borrowing rate for leases. The Company bases its estimates on historical and other pertinent information that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes.

*Allowance for credit losses:*The Company’s allowance for credit losses relates to trade accounts receivable. The Company treats trade accounts receivable as one portfolio and records an initial allowance calculated as a percentage of revenue recognized based on a combination of historical information and future expectations. Additionally, the Company adjusts this allowance based on specific information in connection with aged receivables. Historically, most bad debt has been incurred when a customer’s financial condition significantly deteriorates, which in some cases leads to bankruptcy. Market volatility is highly uncertain and, as such, the impact on expected losses is subject to significant judgment and may cause variability in the Company’s allowance for credit losses in future periods.

The change in the allowance for credit losses is as follows:

Asset retirement obligations: The Company’s asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) relate to disposal facilities with obligations for plugging wells, removing surface equipment, and returning land to its pre-drilling condition. The following table describes the changes to the Company’s ARO liability for the Current Quarter:

We review the adequacy of our ARO liabilities whenever indicators suggest that the estimated cash flows underlying the liabilities have changed. The Company’s ARO liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

*Lessor Income:*The Company is a lessor for a nominal number of owned facilities and also recognizes income related to multiple facility subleases that are accounted for as follows:

The Company also generates short-term equipment rental revenue. See “Note 4—Revenue” for a discussion of revenue recognition for the accommodations and rentals business.

During the Current Quarter, the Company made the decision to abandon operations attwo leased Water Services locations. As a result, the Company recorded $0.5 million of right-of-use asset impairment charges.

Defined Contribution Plan: The Company sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan for the benefit of substantially all employees of the Company. The Company incurred $1.7 million and $1.5 million match expense in the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, respectively.

*Severance:*During the Current Quarter, the Company incurred$0.6 million of severance in connection with the termination of the former Chief Financial Officer included in selling, general and administrative within the consolidated statements of operationsand the full amount is included in accrued salaries and benefits as of March 31, 2024.

Recent accounting pronouncements: In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items to reconcile to segment profit or loss, and the title and position of the entity’s CODM. The amendments in this update also expand the interim segment disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 will be effective for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, and for interim periods starting in our first quarter of 2025. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments in this update are required to be applied on a retrospective basis. We are currently reviewing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2023-07 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 will be effective for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2023-09 to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Many of the assets acquired are adjacent to the Company’s Big Spring Recycling System (“BSRS”) in the Permian Basin, with connectivity into BSRS providing future revenue and cost synergies.

NOTE 4—REVENUE

The Company follows ASC 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for most revenue recognition, which provides a five-step model for determining revenue recognition for arrangements that are within the scope of the standard: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the five-step model only to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration the Company is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services the Company transfers to the customer. The accommodations and rentals revenue continues to be guided by ASC 842 –Leases, which is discussed further below.

The following factors are applicable to allthree of the Company’s segments for the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter:

In the Water Services and Water Infrastructure segments, performance obligations arise in connection with services provided to customers in accordance with contractual terms, in an amount the Company expects to collect. Services are generally sold based upon customer orders or contracts with customers that include fixed or determinable prices. Revenues are generated by services rendered and measured based on the output generated, which is usually simultaneously received and consumed by customers at their job sites. As a multi-job site organization, contract terms, including the pricing for the Company’s services, are negotiated on a job site level on a per-job basis. Most jobs are completed in a short period of time, usually between one day and one month. Revenue is recognized as performance obligations are completed on a daily, hourly or per-unit basis with unconditional rights to consideration for services rendered reflected as accounts receivable trade, net of allowance for credit losses. In cases where a prepayment is received before the Company satisfies its performance obligations, a contract liability is recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Final billings generally occur once all of the proper approvals are obtained. Mobilization and demobilization are factored into the pricing for services. Billings and costs related to mobilization and demobilization are not material for customer agreements that start in one period and end in another. As of March 31, 2024, the Company hadsixteen** **revenue-producing contracts lasting over one year that include enforceable rights and obligations to fall within the scope of the model in the ASC 606 standard. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company hadno contract assets or contract liabilities.

Accommodations and rentals revenue is included in the Water Services segment and the Company accounts for accommodations and rentals agreements as an operating lease. The Company recognizes revenue from renting equipment on a straight-line basis. Accommodations and rental contract periods are generally daily, weekly or monthly. The average lease term is less than three months and as of March 31, 2024, there were no material rental agreements in effect lasting more than one year. During the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, approximately $20.3 million and $21.7 million, respectively, of accommodations and rentals revenue was accounted for under ASC 842 lease guidance.

In the Chemical Technologies segment, the typical performance obligation is to provide a specific quantity of chemicals to customers in accordance with the customer agreement in an amount the Company expects to collect. Products and services are generally sold based upon customer orders or contracts with customers that include fixed or determinable prices. Revenue is recognized as the customer takes title to chemical products in accordance with the agreement. Products may be provided to customers in packaging or delivered to the customers’ containers through a hose. In some cases, the customer takes title to the chemicals upon consumption from storage containers on their property, where the chemicals are considered inventory until customer usage. In cases where the Company delivers products and recognizes revenue before collecting payment, the Company has an unconditional right to payment reflected in accounts receivable trade, net of allowance for credit losses. Customer returns are rare and immaterial and there were no material in-process customer agreements for this segment as of March 31, 2024, lasting greater than one year.

The following table sets forth certain financial information with respect to the Company’s disaggregation of revenues by geographic location:

In the Water Services segment, the most recent topthree revenue-producing regions are the Permian Basin, Eagle Ford and Rockies, which collectively comprised 74% and 66% of segment revenue for the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, respectively. In the Water Infrastructure segment, the most recent topthree revenue-producing regions are the Permian Basin, Haynesville and Bakken which collectively comprised 83% and 79% of segment revenue for the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, respectively. In the Chemical Technologies segment, the most recent topthree revenue-producing regions are the Permian Basin, Rockies and Eagle Ford, which collectively comprised 90% and 87% of segment revenue for the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, respectively.

NOTE 5—INVENTORIES

Inventories, which are comprised of chemicals and raw materials available for resale and parts and consumables used in operations, are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with cost determined under the weighted-average method. The significant components of inventory are as follows:

During the Current Quarter, the Company recorded net credits to the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory of less than$0.1 million. During the Prior Quarter, the Company recorded net charges to the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory of $0.1 million. Both credits and charges to the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory were recognized within costs of revenue on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s inventory reserve was $5.4 million and $5.5 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The reserve for excess and obsolete inventories is determined based on the Company’s historical usage of inventory on hand, as well as future expectations and the amount necessary to reduce the cost of the inventory to its estimated net realizable value.

NOTE 6—PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation (and amortization of finance lease assets) is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each asset. Property and equipment consists of the following as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Total depreciation, amortization and accretion expense related to property and equipment and finance leases presented in the table above, as well as amortization of intangible assets presented in “Note 7— Other Intangible Assets” is as follows:

NOTE 7—GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company recorded $26.5 million of goodwill in connection with the Company’s 2024 acquisitions (See “Note 3—Acquisitions”). Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist.

The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill by reportable segment as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows:

The components of other intangible assets, net as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows:

During the Current Quarter, the Company added $15.5 million in customer relationships in connection with the Company’s 2024 acquisitions (See “Note 3—Acquisitions”). The weighted-average period for customer relationships, patents and other intellectual property, and water rights and other was 12.8 years,9.5 years and 10.0 years respectively, and the weighted-average remaining amortization period for customer relationships, patents and other intellectual property, and water rights and other was 9.0 years,4.4 years and 0.4 years, respectively, as of March 31, 2024. See “Note 6—Property and Equipment” for the amortization expense during the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter. The indefinite-lived water rights are generally subject to renewal every five toten years at immaterial renewal costs. Annual amortization of intangible assets for the next five years and beyond is as follows:

NOTE 8—DEBT

Sustainability-linked credit facility and revolving line of credit

On March 17, 2022 (the “Restatement Date”), SES Holdings and Select Water Solutions, LLC (“Select LLC”), formerly Select Energy Services, LLC and a wholly-owned subsidiary of SES Holdings, entered into a $270.0 million amended and restated senior secured sustainability-linked revolving credit facility (the “Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility”), by and among SES Holdings, as parent, Select LLC, as borrower, and certain of SES Holdings’ subsidiaries, as guarantors, each of the lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, issuing lender and swingline lender (the “Administrative Agent”) (which amended and restated the Credit Agreement dated November 1, 2017 by and among SES Holdings, as parent, Select LLC, as borrower and certain of SES Holdings’ subsidiaries, as guarantors, each of the lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent (the “Prior Credit Agreement”)). Refer to “Note 10—Debt” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of the Prior Credit Agreement. The Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility also has a sublimit of $40.0 million for letters of credit and $27.0 million for swingline loans, respectively. Subject to obtaining commitments from existing or new lenders, Select LLC has the option to increase the maximum amount under the senior secured credit facility by $135.0 million during the first three years following the Restatement Date.

The Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility permits extensions of credit up to the lesser of $270.0 million and a borrowing base that is determined by calculating the amount equal to the sum of (i)85% of the Eligible Billed Receivables (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility), plus (ii)75% of Eligible Unbilled Receivables (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility), provided that this amount will not equal more than 35% of the borrowing base, plus (iii) the lesser of (A) the product of 70% multiplied by the value of Eligible Inventory (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility) at such time and (B) the product of 85% multiplied by the Net Recovery Percentage (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility) identified in the most recent Acceptable Appraisal of Inventory (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility), multiplied by the value of Eligible Inventory at such time, provided that this amount will not equal more than 30% of the borrowing base, minus (iv) the aggregate amount of Reserves (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility), if any, established by the Administrative Agent from time to time, including, if any, the amount of the Dilution Reserve (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility). The borrowing base is calculated on a monthly basis pursuant to a borrowing base certificate delivered by Select LLC to the Administrative Agent.

Borrowings under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility bear interest, at Select LLC’s election, at either the (a) one- or three-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (as defined in the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility) or (b) greatest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (ii) one-month Term SOFR plus 1% and (iii) the Administrative Agent’s prime rate (the “Base Rate”), in each case plus an applicable margin, and interest shall be payable monthly in arrears. The applicable margin for Term SOFR loans ranges from 1.75% to 2.25% and the applicable margin for Base Rate loans ranges from 0.75% to 1.25%, in each case, depending on Select LLC’s average excess availability under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility, as set forth in the table below. During the continuance of a bankruptcy event of default, automatically, and during the continuance of any other default, upon the Administrative Agent’s or the required lenders’ election, all outstanding amounts under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility will bear interest at 2.00% plus the otherwise applicable interest rate. The Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on the fifth anniversary of the Restatement Date.

Under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility, the interest rate margin and the facility fee rates are also subject to adjustments based on Select LLC’s performance of specified sustainability target thresholds with respect to (i) total recordable incident rate, as the Employee Health and Safety Metric and (ii) barrels of produced water recycled at permanent or semi-permanent water treatment and recycling facilities owned or operated, as the Water Stewardship Metric, in each case, subject to limited assurance verification by a qualified independent external reviewer. The adjustment for the interest rate margin is a range of plus and minus 5.0 basis points and the adjustment for the fee margin is a range of plus and minus 1.0 basis point, subject to the mechanics under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility.

The obligations under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility are guaranteed by SES Holdings and certain subsidiaries of SES Holdings and Select LLC and secured by a security interest in substantially all of the personal property assets of SES Holdings, Select LLC and their domestic subsidiaries.

The Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the lenders may declare all amounts outstanding under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable.

In addition, the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility restricts SES Holdings’ and Select LLC’s ability to make distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, its equity interests, except for certain distributions, including distributions of cash so long as, both at the time of the distribution and after giving effect to the distribution, no default exists under the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility and either (a) excess availability at all times during the preceding 30 consecutive days, on a pro forma basis and after giving effect to such distribution, is not less than the greater of (1)25% of the lesser of (A) the maximum revolver amount and (B) the then-effective borrowing base and (2) $33.75 million or (b) if SES Holdings’ fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 1.0 to 1.0 on a pro forma basis, and excess availability at all times during the preceding 30 consecutive days, on a pro forma basis and after giving effect to such distribution, is not less than the greater of (1)20% of the lesser of (A) the maximum revolver amount and (B) the then-effective borrowing base and (2) $27.0 million. Additionally, the Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility generally permits Select LLC to make distributions required under its existing Tax Receivable Agreements.

NOTE 10—EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

The SES Holdings 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) was approved by the board of managers of SES Holdings in April 2011. In conjunction with the private placement of 16,100,000 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock on December 20, 2016 (the “Select 144A Offering”), the Company adopted the Select Energy Services, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2016 Plan”) for employees, consultants and directors of the Company and its affiliates. Options that were outstanding under the 2011 Plan immediately prior to the Select 144A Offering were cancelled in exchange for new options granted under the 2016 Plan. On May 8, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2016 Plan to increase the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock that may be issued under the 2016 Plan by 4,000,000 shares and to make certain other administrative changes. The 2016 Plan includes share recycling provisions that allow shares subject to an award that are withheld or surrendered to the Company in payment of any exercise price or taxes or an award that expires or is cancelled, forfeited or otherwise terminated without actual delivery of the underlying shares of Class A common stock to be considered not delivered and thus available to be granted as new awards under the 2016 Plan.

Currently, the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan is approximately 13.3 million shares, with approximately 1.2 million shares available to be issued as of March 31, 2024. For all share-based compensation award types, the Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

On February 23, 2022, the Company assumed the Nuverra Environmental Solutions, Inc. 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”), and the Nuverra Environmental Solutions, Inc. 2018 Restricted Stock Plan for Directors (the “2018 Plan” and, together with the 2017 Plan, the “Assumed Plans”) and certain equity awards outstanding under the Assumed Plans in connection with the Company’s previously completed acquisition of Nuverra Environmental Solutions, Inc. (the “Nuverra Acquisition”). Under the 2017 Plan, the Company may grant to certain eligible participants who were employees, directors or other service providers of Nuverra prior to the Nuverra Acquisition options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards, cash awards, substitute awards, performance awards, or any combination of the foregoing, with respect to up to 1,772,058 shares of Nuverra common stock. Under the 2018 Plan, the Company may grant to certain eligible participants who were directors of Nuverra prior to the Nuverra Acquisition restricted stock awards with respect to up to 100,000 shares of Nuverra common stock. The shares remaining available for issuance under the Assumed Plans were converted into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion rate ofone Nuverra share to 0.2551 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock such that at the time of the Nuverra Acquisition an aggregate of 131,110 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock was available for issuance with respect to assumed awards and future awards under the 2017 Plan and an aggregate of 24,984 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock was available for issuance with respect to assumed awards and future awards under the 2018 Plan. No awards have been granted under these legacy Nuverra Assumed Plans.

The aggregate number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock available for issuance under the Assumed Plans will be reduced byone share of the Company’s Class A common stock for every one share of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to an award granted under the Assumed Plans. If any award granted under the 2017 Plan (in whole or in part) is cancelled, forfeited, exchanged, settled in cash, or otherwise terminated, the shares of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award will again be available at a rate ofone share of the Company’s Class A common stock for every one share of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award, and if any award granted under the 2018 Plan (in whole or part) is forfeited, the shares of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award will again be available at a rate ofone share of the Company’s Class A common stock for every one share of the Company’s Class A common stock subject to such award. The Company registered the securities issuable under the Assumed Plans by filing a registration statement on Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 23, 2022. As of March 31, 2024, the maximum number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock available for future issuance under the 2017 Plan is 55,769 and under the 2018 Plan is 14,736.

Stock Option Awards

The Company has outstanding stock option awards as of March 31, 2024 but there have beenno option grants since 2018. The stock options were granted with an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of Class A common stock as of the date of grant. The expected life of the options at the time of the grant was based on the vesting period and term of the options awarded, which wasten years.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity and related information as of and for the Current Quarter is as follows:

(a) Aggregate intrinsic value for stock options is based on the difference between the exercise price of the stock options and the quoted closing Class A common stock price of $9.23 and $7.59 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021, all equity-based compensation expense related to stock options had been recognized.

Restricted Stock Awards

The value of the restricted stock awards granted was established by the market price of the Class A common stock on the date of grant and is recorded as compensation expense ratably over the vesting term, which is generally over three years from the applicable date of grant. The Company recognized compensation expense of $3.7 million and $3.9 million related to the restricted stock awards for the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, there was $18.7 million of unrecognized compensation expense with a weighted-average remaining life of 2.2 years related to unvested restricted stock awards.

A summary of the Company’s restricted stock awards activity and related information for the Current Quarter is as follows:

Performance Share Units (“PSUs”)

During 2022 and 2023, the Company approved grants of PSUs that are subject to both performance-based and service-based vesting provisions related to (i) return on asset performance (“ROA”) in comparison to thirteen peer companies and (ii) Adjusted Free Cash Flow (“FCF”) performance percentage. The number of shares of Class A common stock issued to a recipient upon vesting of the PSUs will be calculated based on ROA and FCF performance

over the applicable period from either January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024 or January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025.

The target number of shares of Class A common stock subject to each remaining PSU granted in 2022 and 2023 isone; however, based on the achievement of performance criteria, the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be received in the settlement of each PSU can range from 0.0 to 1.75 times the target number. The PSUs become earned at the end of the performance period after the attainment of the performance level has been certified by the compensation committee, which will be no later than June 30, 2025 for the 2022 PSU grants, and June 30, 2026, for the 2023 PSU grants, assuming the applicable minimum performance metrics are achieved.

The target PSUs granted in 2022 and 2023 that become earned connected with the ROA in comparison to other companies will be determined based on the Company’s Average Return on Assets (as defined in the applicable PSU agreement) relative to the Average Return on Assets of the peer companies (as defined in the applicable PSU agreement) in accordance with the following table, but the Company must have a positive Total Shareholder Return (as defined in the applicable PSU agreement) over the performance period. As a result of this market condition, the 2022 and 2023 PSUs will be valued each reporting period utilizing a Black-Scholes model.

The target PSUs that become earned in connection with the adjusted FCF performance percentage will be determined (as defined in the applicable PSU agreement) in accordance with the following table:

During 2024, the Company approved grants of PSUs that are subject to both performance-based and service-based vesting provisions related to ROA in comparison to twelve peer companies and PSUs subject to market-based and service-based vesting provisions related to absolute total shareholder return (“TSR”) over the performance period from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026. The target number of shares of Class A common stock subject to each PSU granted in 2024 is 1.0; however, based on the achievement of performance criteria, the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be received in the settlement of each PSU can range from 0.0 to 2.0 times the target number. No PSUs are earned if the Company's TSR is negative. The PSUs become earned at the end of the performance period after the attainment of the performance level has been certified by the compensation committee, which will be no later than June 30, 2027.

The target PSUs granted in 2024 that become earned in connection with the ROA in comparison to other companies will be determined (as defined in the applicable PSU agreement) in accordance with the following table:

The PSUs granted in 2024 that become earned in connection with TSR will be determined (as defined in the applicable PSU agreement) in accordance with the following table:

The fair value on the date the PSUs were granted during 2024, 2023 and 2022 was$5.2 million, $5.3 million and $5.0 million, respectively. Compensation expense related to the PSUs is determined by multiplying the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying such awards that, based on the Company’s estimate, are probable to vest by the measurement date (i.e., the last day of each reporting period date) fair value and recognized using the accelerated attribution method. The Company recognized charges to compensation expense of $2.6 million and credits to compensation expense of $0.9 million related to the PSUs for the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, the unrecognized compensation cost related to our unvested PSUs is estimated to be$9.6 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years. However, this compensation cost will be adjusted as appropriate throughout the applicable performance periods.

The following table summarizes the information about the PSUs outstanding as of March 31, 2024:

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)

The Company formerly had an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) under which employees that have been continuously employed for at leastone year may purchase shares of Class A common stock at a discount. On November 3, 2022, our board of directors approved an amendment to the ESPP, which suspended all offerings on or after December 1, 2022. Our board of directors reserves the right to recommence offerings pursuant to its discretion and the terms of the ESPP.

Share Repurchases

During the Current Quarter, the Company repurchased 830,337 shares of Class A common stock in connection with employee minimum tax withholding requirements for shares vested under the 2016 Plan. All repurchased shares were retired. During the Current Quarter, the repurchases were accounted for as a decrease to paid-in-capital of $7.0 million and a decrease to Class A common stock of $8,000. In the Prior Quarter, the Company repurchased 1,231,996 shares of Class A common stock in the open market pursuant to our share repurchase program and 425,207 shares of Class A common stock in connection with employee minimum tax withholding requirements.

The 1% U.S. federal excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. corporations enacted as part of the IRA 2022 applies to our share repurchase program.

NOTE 11—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company utilizes fair value measurements to measure assets and liabilities in a business combination or assess impairment and abandonment of property and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill or to measure the value of securities marked to market. Fair value is defined as the amount at which an asset (or liability) could be bought (or incurred) or sold (or settled) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Further, ASC 820,Fair Value Measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and includes certain disclosure requirements. Fair value estimates are based on either (i) actual market data or (ii) assumptions that other market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including estimates of risk.

ASC 820 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for the disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2—Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3—Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining fair value).

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. There wereno transfers into, or out of, the three levels of the fair value hierarchy for the three months ended March 31, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023.

Other fair value considerations

The carrying values of the Company’s current financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable trade and accounts payable, approximate their fair value as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of debt as of March 31, 2024 approximates fair value due to variable market rates of interest. The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market exchange.

NOTE 12—RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company considers its related parties to be those stockholders who are beneficial owners of more than 5.0% of its common stock, executive officers, members of its board of directors or immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons, an investment in a company that is significantly influenced by another related party, and cost-method and equity-method investees. The Company has entered into a number of transactions with related parties. In accordance with the Company’s related persons transactions policy, the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors regularly reviews these transactions. However, the Company’s results of operations may have been different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties.

During the Current Quarter, sales to related parties were $0.2 million and purchases from related-party vendors were $4.6 million. These purchases consisted of $3.0 million relating to the rental of certain equipment or other services used in operations, $0.6 million relating to property and equipment, $0.6 million relating to management, consulting and other services and $0.4 million relating to inventory and consumables.

During the Prior Quarter, sales to related parties were $0.3 million and purchases from related-party vendors were $3.8 million. These purchases consisted of $3.0 million relating to the rental of certain equipment or other services used in operations, $0.6 million relating to property and equipment and $0.2 million relating to management, consulting and other services.

Tax Receivable Agreements

In connection with the Select 144A Offering, the Company entered into two tax receivable agreements (the “Tax Receivable Agreements”)with certain then-affiliates of the then-holders of SES Holdings LLC Units. As of March 31, 2024, certain of the TRA Holders were employed by the Company, on the Company’s board of directors and/or owned shares of the Company’s Class A and/or Class B common stock.

The first of the Tax Receivable Agreements, which the Company entered into with Legacy Owner Holdco and Crestview Partners II GP, L.P. (“Crestview GP”) generally provides for the payment by the Company to such TRA Holders of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax that the Company actually realizes (computed using simplifying assumptions to address the impact of state and local taxes) or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances in periods after the Select 144A Offering as a result of, as applicable to each such TRA Holder, (i) certain increases in tax basis that occur as a result of the Company’s acquisition (or deemed acquisition for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of all or a portion of such TRA Holder’s SES Holdings LLC Units in connection with the Select 144A Offering or pursuant to the exercise of the Exchange Right or the Company’s Call Right and (ii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of, and additional tax basis arising from, any payments the Company makes under such Tax Receivable Agreement.

The second of the Tax Receivable Agreements, which the Company entered into with an affiliate of Legacy Owner Holdco and Crestview GP, generally provides for the payment by the Company to such TRA Holders of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax that the Company actually realizes (computed using simplifying assumptions to address the impact of state and local taxes) or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances in periods after the Select 144A Offering as a result of, as applicable to each such TRA Holder, (i) any net operating losses available to the Company as a result of certain reorganization transactions entered into in connection with the Select 144A Offering and (ii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of any payments the Company makes under such Tax Receivable Agreement.

On June 23, 2023, the Tax Receivable Agreements were amended to replace references to one year LIBOR with references to the 12-month term SOFR published by CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited plus 171.513 basis points, which is the benchmark replacement rate and additional margin that, under the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act of 2021, would have otherwise been inserted in place of references to LIBOR in the Tax Receivable Agreements following June 30, 2023.

The Company has recognized a liability associated with the Tax Receivable Agreements of $38.2 million as of both March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, because the likelihood of a payment to be made under the Tax Receivable Agreements has been determined to be probable as of both March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023. The recognized liability associated with the Tax Receivable Agreements represents 85% of the net cash savings in U.S. federal, state and local income tax or franchise tax that the Company anticipates realizing in future years from certain increases in tax basis and other tax attributes arising from the Company’s completed acquisitions of SES Holdings LLC Units from the TRA Holders and from the net operating losses available to the Company as a result of certain reorganization transactions entered into in connection with the Select 144A Offering.

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES

The Company’s income tax information is presented in the table below. The effective tax rate is different than the 21% standard Federal rate due to net income allocated to noncontrolling interests, state income taxes and permanent book tax differences.

We regularly review our deferred tax assets for realization and establish a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Historically, we have maintained a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. The Company considers all available positive and negative evidence in determining whether realization of the tax benefit is more likely than not. This evidence includes historical income / loss, projected future income, the expected timing of the reversal of existing temporary differences and the implementation of tax planning strategies. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company evaluated all available positive and negative evidence and determined that$61.9 million of the valuation allowance as of December 31, 2023, associated with deferred tax assets should be released because the Company believed that it had become more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would be realized. In the Company's evaluation of the need for and amount of a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets, the Company placed the most weight on objectively verifiable direct evidence, including its recent and historical operating results and the significant improvement in its operating profitability. The specific positive factors and evidence considered in the realizability of its deferred tax assets included the cumulative pre-tax income that the Company generated over the past three-year period and the expectation of income in future periods. The release of the valuation allowance resulted in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to deferred income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2023.

NOTE 14—NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

The Company’s noncontrolling interests fall into two categories as follows:

For all periods presented, there were changes in Select Inc.’s ownership interest in SES Holdings. The effects of the changes in Select Inc.’s ownership interest in SES Holdings are as follows:

NOTE 15—INCOME PER SHARE

Income per share is based on the amount of income allocated to the stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period for each class of common stock. Outstanding options to purchase 1,467,544 and 1,663,972 shares of Class A common stock are not included in the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the Current Quarter and Prior Quarter, respectively, as their effect is antidilutive. Shares of the Company’s Class B common stock do not share in net income or losses attributable to the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class B common stock under the two-class method has not been presented.

The following tables present the Company’s calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the Current and Prior Quarter (dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts):
