NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  1. Organization and Description of Business

Kodiak Gas Services, Inc. (the “Company” or “Kodiak”) is an operator of contract compression infrastructure and related services primarily in the U.S. The Company operates compression units under primarily fixed-revenue contracts with upstream and midstream customers.

Kodiak operates its business and the majority of the Company’s assets and liabilities under its subsidiary Kodiak Gas Services, LLC (“Kodiak Services”). Kodiak is the primary beneficiary of Kodiak Services, which is a variable interest entity, since the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Kodiak Services’ economic performance and the Company has the right (and obligation) to receive benefits (and absorb losses) of Kodiak Services that could be potentially significant to the Company.

  1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial information. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kodiak and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE)and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Clarifying the Effective Date. These updates require disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions and the total amount of selling expenses. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our disclosures.

ABL Facility

On April 2, 2026, Kodiak and Kodiak Services entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Fifth Amendment”) with the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (as amended or restated from time to time, the “ABL Credit Agreement” or “ABL Facility”), which amends the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 22, 2023. The Fifth Amendment, among other things, modifies the calculation of the leverage ratio. Through June 30, 2026, the Fifth Amendment allows Kodiak Services to deduct from its total indebtedness the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Senior Notes, in addition to the existing $50,000,000 cash netting cap, so long as such proceeds remain as unrestricted cash or cash equivalents.

The ABL Facility is a revolving credit arrangement with a lockbox feature, where customer payments may be sent to a bank account managed by the agent and used to pay down borrowings if availability drops below $100 million forfive consecutive business days. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, availability exceeded this threshold, so the balance was classified as long-term in accordance with its maturity.

Interest on the outstanding borrowings under the ABL Facility is payable monthly and accrues based on variable rates of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.75% to 2.50% or prime rate plus an applicable rate ranging from 0.75% to 1.50% depending on the leverage ratio as of the most recently ended quarter. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the weighted average interest rate on the ABL Facility was 5.67% and 5.72%, respectively, excluding the effect of the interest rate swap. The Company pays an annualized commitment fee of 0.25% on the unused portion of its ABL Facility.

The ABL Facility provides for commitments totaling $2.0 billion and a maturity date of September 5, 2030. As of March 31, 2026, $1.4 million in letters of credit were outstanding. As of March 31, 2026, borrowings under our ABL Facility totaled $449.9 million.

As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all covenants under the ABL Facility. All obligations under the ABL Facility are collateralized by essentially all the assets of the Company.

On March 11, 2026, we provided notice to the holders of our 2029 Senior Notes that, contingent on receipt of the proceeds from the 2031 Senior Notes, the 2029 Senior Notes would be redeemed at a premium on April 10, 2026. On March 30, 2026, utilizing a portion of the proceeds from the 2031 Senior Notes (as defined below), we made an irrevocable deposit of funds with the trustee to satisfy and discharge the 2029 Senior Notes in accordance with the terms of the applicable indenture, which resulted in a legal defeasance under GAAP (the “Defeasance”).

The Defeasance required a cash outlay of $785.5 million, which was irrevocably deposited with the trustee to fund interest payments on the 2029 Senior Notes through April 10, 2026, when the 2029 Senior Notes were redeemed at a premium, as well as fund the redemption of the 2029 Senior Notes in full. As a result of the Defeasance, the Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of$36.5 million for thethree months ended March 31, 2026, which represents the early redemption premium of$27.2 million, thewrite-off of deferred financing costs of $7.8 million, and accrued interest of $1.5 million.

2031 Senior Notes

On March 20, 2026, Kodiak Services issued $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2031 (the “2031 Senior Notes”). The net proceeds from the 2031 Senior Notes were used by the Company to redeem all of Kodiak Services’ outstanding 7.25% Senior Notes due 2029 at a redemption price equal to 103.625% of the $750.0 million aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The 2031 Senior Notes are redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, prior to April 1, 2028, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus a “make-whole” premium and any accrued and unpaid interest up to the redemption date. This make-whole premium is determined as the excess, if any, of the present value at such time of the redemption plus any required interest payments through April 1, 2028, discounted semi-annually to the redemption date using the applicable treasury rate plus 0.50% over the principal amount of the 2031 Senior Notes. Prior to April 1, 2028, the Company may also redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Senior Notes using an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 105.875% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest up to the redemption date, provided that at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount remains outstanding following such redemption and the redemption occurs within 180 days following the equity offering’s closing.

On or after April 1, 2028, Kodiak Services may, on one or more occasions, redeem any or all of the 2031 Senior Notes at the redemption prices set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the redemption date, beginning on April 1 of the specified years indicated below.

Percentage of Principal Amount
2028102.938%
2029101.469%
2030 and thereafter100.000%

Fees and costs totaling $14.3 million were incurred related to the 2031 Senior Notes and are amortized over the life of the notes to interest expense.

2033 Senior Notes

On September 5, 2025, Kodiak Services issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.50% senior unsecured notes due 2033 (the “2033 Senior Notes”). On September 22, 2025, Kodiak Services completed a private offering of an additional $170.0 million of 2033 Senior Notes for $173.4 million. The excess fair value above the face value was recognized as a bond premium, which is amortized as a reduction in interest expense over the remaining term of the 2033 Senior Notes. The net proceeds from the 2033 Senior Notes were used by the Company to repay a portion of the debt outstanding under the ABL Facility.

The 2033 Senior Notes can be redeemed by the Company on or after October 1, 2028, at specified redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest. Additionally, prior to October 1, 2028, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the 2033 Senior Notes using proceeds from certain equity offerings at specified redemption prices and make-whole premiums plus any accrued and unpaid interest provided at least 50% of the original principal remains and redemption occurs within 180 days of the offering.

2035 Senior Notes

On September 5, 2025, Kodiak Services issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior unsecured notes due 2035 (the “2035 Senior Notes”). Subsequently, on September 22, 2025, Kodiak Services completed a private offering of an additional $30.0 million of 2035 Senior Notes for $30.9 million. The excess fair value above the face value was recognized as a bond premium, which is amortized as a reduction in interest expense over the remaining term of the 2035 Senior Notes. The net proceeds from the 2035 Senior Notes were utilized for the same purposes described above for the 2033 Senior Notes.

The 2035 Senior Notes can be redeemed by the Company on or after October 1, 2030, at specified redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest. Additionally, prior to October 1, 2030, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the 2035 Senior Notes using proceeds from certain equity offerings at specified redemption prices and make-whole premiums plus any accrued and unpaid interest provided at least 50% of the original principal remains and redemption occurs within 180 days of the offering.

The indentures governing the 2031 Senior Notes, 2033 Senior Notes and 2035 Senior Notes contain covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries from actions such as distributing or redeeming equity, making certain investments, incurring additional debt, creating liens, selling assets, merging, engaging in affiliate transactions, and forming unrestricted subsidiaries, with some exceptions. Most restrictions terminate if the 2031 Senior Notes, 2033 Senior Notes and 2035 Senior Notes receive investment grade ratings from any two of Moody’s, S&P, and Fitch, and no default exists. The indentures also include standard events of default.

  1. Derivative Instruments

The Company has entered into an interest rate swap, exchanging variable interest rates for fixed interest rates. The interest rate swap was designated as a cash flow hedge derivative instrument, and management evaluated hedge effectiveness and determined it to be highly effective as of March 31, 2026. See Note 10. Fair Value Measurements for details on the valuation of the interest rate swap.

The table below summarizes the amortization schedule related to the interest rate swap, which matures on September 5, 2030:

  1. Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, derivative instruments and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their respective Level 1 fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The Company’s ABL Facility applies floating interest rates to outstanding amounts; therefore, the carrying amount of the ABL Facility approximates its Level 3 fair value. The fair value of our senior notes is determined using Level 2 inputs, relying on quoted prices in less active markets.

The Company records derivative instruments at fair value using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. The interest rate swap is valued using a discounted cash flow analysis based on available market data on the expected cash flows of each derivative using observable inputs, including interest rate curves and credit spreads. See Note 9. Derivative Instruments for more details.

The following table summarizes the fair value of our interest rate swap, measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and our long‑term debt disclosed at fair value:

  1. Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchases

Kodiak’s board of directors (“Board”) has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $100.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock (the “Share Repurchase Program”) through December 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, $31.7 million remains available for repurchase under the Share Repurchase Program.

Preferred Stock

Holders of the Company’s preferred stock are entitled toone vote for each share, voting proportionally with holders of common stock. The preferred stock lacks economic benefits beyond its par value of $0.01 per share (with a maximum value of $50,000), as it does not participate in earnings or cash dividends of Kodiak. Rather, it solely represents a voting share. Each preferred stock holds an equal number of OpCo Units, representing economic interests in Kodiak’s subsidiary, Kodiak Services. Each OpCo Unit is redeemable at the option of the holder for (i)one share of common stock (along with cancellation of a corresponding share of preferred stock) or (ii) cash at Kodiak Services’ election, and subject to certain conditions. On or after April 1, 2029, Kodiak shall have the right to effect redemption of such OpCo Units (along with corresponding share of preferred stock). The OpCo Units represent and are accounted for as noncontrolling interests in Kodiak Services. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and the year ended December 31, 2025, a total of 0.1 million and 0.5 million, respectively, shares of preferred stock and OpCo Units were converted into an equivalent number of common stock shares.

2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan

On June 20, 2023, Kodiak’s Board authorized and adopted the Kodiak Gas Services, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) for employees, consultants and directors. The Omnibus Plan enables Kodiak’s Board (or a committee authorized by Kodiak’s Board) to award incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock awards, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards, cash awards and substitute awards intended to align the interests of service providers, including the Company’s named executive officers, with those of the Company’s stockholders. As of March 31, 2026, a total of 6.1 million shares of common stock has been reserved for issuance pursuant to awards under the Omnibus Plan.

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) are time-based units that vest ratably over athree-year period, subject to continuous service through each vesting date. Stock-based compensation for RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

Performance Stock Units

Performance stock units (“PSUs”) cliff vest at the end of athree-year performance period, with the ultimate number of shares earned and issued ranging from 0 -200% of the number of shares subject to the PSU award based on the Company's achievement of certain predefined internal targets and the Company’s performance relative to its peers as described in the underlying PSU agreement, subject to continuous service through the end of the performance period. With respect to each PSU, each PSU holder is granted associated dividend equivalents rights. In the event that the Company declares and pays a regular cash dividend, on the record date for such dividend, the Company will accrue a dividend equivalent based on the number of PSUs expected to vest. The fair value of the market condition within the PSUs is determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model. Stock-based compensation for PSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based on the probable performance outcome. The Company reassesses the probability of achieving the performance targets each reporting period and adjusts compensation expense accordingly.

The following table summarizes award activity under the Omnibus Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

As of March 31, 2026, the total future compensation cost related to non-vested equity awards was approximately $50.8 million to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 2.4 years, assuming the performance-based restricted stock units vest at 135%, pursuant to the terms of the applicable award. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, approximately $5.9 million and $7.0 million, respectively, in equity compensation expense was recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses.

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company resolved outstanding Texas sales and use tax matters with the Texas Comptroller’s office related to certain prior periods. The settlement, which included applicable interest for the periods under review, was paid in full. The amount settled had previously been recognized in prior years, reflecting management’s earlier assessment of the liability.

Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various legal matters. Management believes that as of March 31, 2026, there are no legal matters whose resolution could have a material adverse effect on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In the first quarter of 2025, the Company received a report regarding certain payments to local government officials in Mexico that commenced prior to the Company’s acquisition of its Mexican business in connection with the acquisition of CSI Compressco LP (the “CSI Acquisition”) that presented potential compliance issues under U.S. law. In response, the Company retained outside counsel to conduct an internal investigation of the reported payments, including whether any payments made may have indirectly benefited individuals associated with certain criminal cartel organizations, some of which may be designated as foreign terrorist organizations (FTOs) and Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs) per Executive Order 14157 of January 20, 2025. The investigation determined that certain payments likely were made to persons associated with an organization designated as an FTO or SDGT. The payments appear to have been made in order to protect employees of the Mexican business from threats of harm or harassment, and to ensure access to work sites. The aggregate amount of these payments was not material. The Company sold its operations and legal entities in Mexico on September 30, 2025.

The Company voluntarily self-reported this matter to governmental authorities in the United States, including the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), and is cooperating with the investigative steps being taken by the DOJ and OFAC into the matter as a result of the voluntary self-disclosure. The Company also voluntarily self-reported to the SEC and intends to cooperate fully should there be any investigation by the Commission. This matter could result in U.S. governmental authorities seeking criminal and/or civil sanctions, including monetary fines and penalties, against the Company, as well as requiring additional changes to the Company’s business practices and compliance programs. To the extent any of the payments at issue are determined to be illegal in a foreign jurisdiction, it is possible that there could be civil or criminal penalties assessed in that jurisdiction.

Although the Company does not expect the findings from the investigation or actions taken by governmental authorities to have a significant adverse impact on its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of these matters at this time.

Letters of Credit

As of March 31, 2026, there was $1.4 million of letters of credit outstanding under the ABL Facility mainly to support the Company's obligations to construct a gas compression station on behalf of a customer.

The Company didnot have any uncertain tax benefits as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company hadno accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions, andno amounts were recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

  1. Segments

The Company manages its business throughtwo operating segments: Contract Services and Other Services. Contract Services consists of operating Company-owned compression, customer-owned compression, and gas treating and cooling infrastructure, pursuant to fixed-revenue contracts, to enable the production, gathering and transportation of natural gas and oil. Other Services consists of a broad range of services to support ancillary needs of customers, including station construction, maintenance and overhaul, freight and crane charges, and other time and material-based offerings.

Our Chief Executive Officer, also our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), assesses the performance of each segment based on adjusted gross margin. This metric is calculated by subtracting specific costs of service, such as cost of operations, from revenues directly attributable to the segment. Adjusted gross margin is a key tool used by the CODM for annual budgeting, monthly forecasting, and determining how to allocate capital and resources across the segments.

The following tables represent financial metrics by segment:

  1. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of common stock is computed by using the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, including the dilutive effect of restricted stock units and performance stock units based on an average share price during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025,115.0 thousand and 15.0 thousand unvested RSUs and PSUs, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of potential dilutive common shares due to their anti-dilutive impact.

The computations of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:

  1. Subsequent Events

Acquisition of Distributed Power Solutions

On April 1, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of Distributed Power Solutions, LLC (“DPS”), a provider of turnkey distributed and behind‑the‑meter power generation solutions. DPS has been rebranded as Kodiak Power Solutions, a division of the Company. Kodiak Services acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of DPS. The acquisition expands the Company’s platform beyond contract compression into distributed power generation and adds generation capacity, with customers across data center, microgrid, manufacturing and energy infrastructure end markets.

The total consideration consisted of $587.3 million of cash, including adjustments for certain additional power generation assets purchased since the transaction announcement, indebtedness and working capital, and the issuance of 2,401,278 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share with an estimated fair value of $139.0 million based on the Company’s closing stock price on April 1, 2026. Subsequent to March 31, 2026, and in connection with the acquisition of DPS, we entered into purchase commitments totaling approximately $244.8 million for the acquisition of power generation assets. These commitments are expected to be fulfilled over a period of approximately four years and are intended to support our planned investment in expanding our power generation fleet. As these commitments were entered into after March 31, 2026, they are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

Due to the limited time since the closing of the acquisition, the initial valuations and accounting for this business combination are incomplete as of the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements. As a result, certain disclosures required by ASC 805, including the allocation of the purchase price, the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, acquisition‑related costs, and the supplemental pro forma revenue and earnings for the combined entity have not yet been determined as the pro forma adjustments are expected to consist of estimates for the depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment assets, respectively, which will result from the purchase price allocation and determination of the fair values for the asset acquired.

In connection with the closing of the acquisition of DPS, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Mustang PRS, LLC and Louisiana Machinery Company, L.L.C. (together, the “Holders”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Holders were granted customary rights to require us to file and maintain the effectiveness of a shelf registration statement with respect to the re-sale of the Common Stock received by the Holders, along with customary piggyback registration rights.
