Kodiak Gas Services Announces Third Quarter 2023 Results Including Record Quarterly Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA; Updates Full Year 2023 Guidance
MONTGOMERY, Texas, Nov. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Kodiak Gas Services, Inc. (NYSE: KGS) ("Kodiak" or the "Company"), a leading provider of critical energy infrastructure and contract compression services, today reported financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and also updated full-year 2023 guidance.
Third Quarter 2023 Highlights
- Total revenues were $231.0 million compared to $182.6 million in the third quarter of 2022
- Core Compression Operations segment revenues grew 14% over last year's third quarter and 3% sequentially
- Net income was $21.8 million compared to net income of $45.9 million in the third quarter of 2022
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $110.1 million compared to $101.5 million in the third quarter of 2022
- Horsepower utilization ended the third quarter of 2023 at 99.9%
- Updated full-year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $430 to $440 million
- Initiated quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share, to be paid on November 10, 2023
Mickey McKee, Kodiak's founder and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our third quarter financial results were highlighted by record quarterly revenues and adjusted EBITDA, margin expansion in our Compression Operations segment and strong revenue growth in each of our segments. We initiated a quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share, above the midpoint of our prior guidance, with the first payment to be made on November 10th. Returning capital to our shareholders is an important component of our capital allocation strategy and we believe Kodiak's stock offers investors a very compelling yield.
"We exited the third quarter with 99.9% utilization and our planned 2023 horsepower additions are fully contracted, giving us great confidence in our revised full-year outlook. With lead times on new equipment orders remaining at a year or more, we are nearly fully contracted on our 2024 deliveries and already in discussions with our customers on their 2025 needs. The rates on new unit deployments continue to provide an attractive return on capital."
McKee added, "Large horsepower compression remains in high demand from our customers, and we see significant tailwinds for natural gas infrastructure growth, particularly in the Permian Basin, where over 70% of our horsepower is deployed. We're focused on growing our fleet in the best basins with the best customers while delivering the highest level of service in the industry."
(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a Non-GAAP Financial Measure. A definition and reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure is included herein.
Segment Information
Compression Operations segment revenues were $186.7 million in the third quarter of 2023, a 14.1% increase compared to $163.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. Compression Operations segment gross margin was $75.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, an 18% increase compared to $63.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. Compression Operations segment Adjusted Gross Margin was $121.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, a 12.4% increase compared to $107.8 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Other Services segment revenues were $44.3 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $19.0 million in the third quarter of 2022. This segment's revenues were higher than expected due to an accelerated construction schedule on our largest project. Other Services segment gross margin and Adjusted Gross Margin were each $5.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, up from $4.9 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Long-Term Debt and Liquidity
Total debt outstanding was $1.8 billion as of September 30, 2023, comprised entirely of borrowings on the ABL Facility and resulting in a leverage ratio of 4.07x. The leverage ratio decreased from June 30, 2023 as a result of the reduction in debt in connection with the consummation of our IPO, combined with growth in Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. At September 30, 2023, the Company had $396.2 million available on its ABL Facility.

(1)
The Company is unable to reconcile projected Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income (loss) and Discretionary Cash Flow to projected net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, respectively, without unreasonable efforts because components of the calculations are inherently unpredictable, such as changes to current assets and liabilities, unknown future events, and estimating certain future GAAP measures. The inability to project certain components of the calculation would significantly affect the accuracy of the reconciliations.
(2)
Discretionary Cash Flow includes a non-recurring $25.8 million realized gain on derivatives and assumes no change to Secured Overnight Financing Rate futures.
(3)
$1.52 per share annualized. The Company expects to pay one dividend in 2023.
(4)
Selling, General and Administrative, Adjusted excludes transaction expenses, equity compensation expense and $2.0 million of bad debt expense related to the collectability of outstanding receivables.
(5)
Growth capital expenditures include approximately $15 million in non-unit growth capital expenditures and exclude approximately $10 million in capital expenditures related to the purchase and expansion of previously-leased operations facilities during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, net: income tax expense (benefit); and depreciation and amortization; plus (i) loss on extinguishment of debt; (ii) loss (gain) on derivatives; (iii) equity compensation expense; (iv) transaction expenses; (v) loss (gain) on sale of assets; and (vi) impairment of compression equipment. Adjusted EBITDA Percentage is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Percentage are used as supplemental financial measures by our management and external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and other financial institutions, to assess: (i) the financial performance of our assets without regard to the impact of financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis of our assets; (ii) the viability of capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities; (iii) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to make debt payments and pay dividends; and (iv) our operating performance as compared to those of other companies in our industry without regard to the impact of financing methods and capital structure. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Percentage provide useful information to investors because, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, they provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. We also believe that external users of our financial statements benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating the results of our business. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as revenue less cost of operations, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage is defined as Adjusted Gross Margin divided by revenues. We believe Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage are useful as supplemental measures to investors of our operating profitability. Reconciliations of Adjusted Gross Margin to gross margin are presented below.
Discretionary Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures;(ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; and (iv) certain other expenses; plus (x) cash loss on extinguishment of debt; and (y) transaction expenses. We believe Discretionary Cash Flow is a useful liquidity and performance measure and supplemental financial measure for us and our investors in assessing our ability to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, make growth capital expenditures and assess our operating performance. Reconciliations of Discretionary Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures;(ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; (iv) certain other expenses; and (v) net growth capital expenditures; plus (x) cash loss on extinguishment of debt; (y) transaction expenses; and (z) proceeds from sale of capital assets. We believe Free Cash Flow is a liquidity measure and useful supplemental financial measure for us and investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments to grow our business and to service our debt. Reconciliations of Free Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.

SOURCE Kodiak Gas Services, Inc.
MONTGOMERY, Texas, Nov. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Kodiak Gas Services, Inc. (NYSE: KGS) ("Kodiak" or the "Company"), a leading provider of critical energy infrastructure and contract compression services, today reported financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and also updated full-year 2023 guidance.
Third Quarter 2023 Highlights
- Total revenues were $231.0 million compared to $182.6 million in the third quarter of 2022
- Core Compression Operations segment revenues grew 14% over last year's third quarter and 3% sequentially
- Net income was $21.8 million compared to net income of $45.9 million in the third quarter of 2022
- Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $110.1 million compared to $101.5 million in the third quarter of 2022
- Horsepower utilization ended the third quarter of 2023 at 99.9%
- Updated full-year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $430 to $440 million
- Initiated quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share, to be paid on November 10, 2023
Mickey McKee, Kodiak's founder and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our third quarter financial results were highlighted by record quarterly revenues and adjusted EBITDA, margin expansion in our Compression Operations segment and strong revenue growth in each of our segments. We initiated a quarterly dividend of $0.38 per share, above the midpoint of our prior guidance, with the first payment to be made on November 10th. Returning capital to our shareholders is an important component of our capital allocation strategy and we believe Kodiak's stock offers investors a very compelling yield.
"We exited the third quarter with 99.9% utilization and our planned 2023 horsepower additions are fully contracted, giving us great confidence in our revised full-year outlook. With lead times on new equipment orders remaining at a year or more, we are nearly fully contracted on our 2024 deliveries and already in discussions with our customers on their 2025 needs. The rates on new unit deployments continue to provide an attractive return on capital."
McKee added, "Large horsepower compression remains in high demand from our customers, and we see significant tailwinds for natural gas infrastructure growth, particularly in the Permian Basin, where over 70% of our horsepower is deployed. We're focused on growing our fleet in the best basins with the best customers while delivering the highest level of service in the industry."

Segment Information
Compression Operations segment revenues were $186.7 million in the third quarter of 2023, a 14.1% increase compared to $163.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. Compression Operations segment gross margin was $75.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, an 18% increase compared to $63.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. Compression Operations segment Adjusted Gross Margin was $121.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, a 12.4% increase compared to $107.8 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Other Services segment revenues were $44.3 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $19.0 million in the third quarter of 2022. This segment's revenues were higher than expected due to an accelerated construction schedule on our largest project. Other Services segment gross margin and Adjusted Gross Margin were each $5.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, up from $4.9 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Long-Term Debt and Liquidity
Total debt outstanding was $1.8 billion as of September 30, 2023, comprised entirely of borrowings on the ABL Facility and resulting in a leverage ratio of 4.07x. The leverage ratio decreased from June 30, 2023 as a result of the reduction in debt in connection with the consummation of our IPO, combined with growth in Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. At September 30, 2023, the Company had $396.2 million available on its ABL Facility.

The Company is unable to reconcile projected Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income (loss) and Discretionary Cash Flow to projected net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, respectively, without unreasonable efforts because components of the calculations are inherently unpredictable, such as changes to current assets and liabilities, unknown future events, and estimating certain future GAAP measures. The inability to project certain components of the calculation would significantly affect the accuracy of the reconciliations. |

Discretionary Cash Flow includes a non-recurring $25.8 million realized gain on derivatives and assumes no change to Secured Overnight Financing Rate futures. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, net: income tax expense (benefit); and depreciation and amortization; plus (i) loss on extinguishment of debt; (ii) loss (gain) on derivatives; (iii) equity compensation expense; (iv) transaction expenses; (v) loss (gain) on sale of assets; and (vi) impairment of compression equipment. Adjusted EBITDA Percentage is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Percentage are used as supplemental financial measures by our management and external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and other financial institutions, to assess: (i) the financial performance of our assets without regard to the impact of financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis of our assets; (ii) the viability of capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities; (iii) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to make debt payments and pay dividends; and (iv) our operating performance as compared to those of other companies in our industry without regard to the impact of financing methods and capital structure. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Percentage provide useful information to investors because, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, they provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. We also believe that external users of our financial statements benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating the results of our business. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as revenue less cost of operations, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage is defined as Adjusted Gross Margin divided by revenues. We believe Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage are useful as supplemental measures to investors of our operating profitability. Reconciliations of Adjusted Gross Margin to gross margin are presented below.
Discretionary Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures;(ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; and (iv) certain other expenses; plus (x) cash loss on extinguishment of debt; and (y) transaction expenses. We believe Discretionary Cash Flow is a useful liquidity and performance measure and supplemental financial measure for us and our investors in assessing our ability to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, make growth capital expenditures and assess our operating performance. Reconciliations of Discretionary Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures;(ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; (iv) certain other expenses; and (v) net growth capital expenditures; plus (x) cash loss on extinguishment of debt; (y) transaction expenses; and (z) proceeds from sale of capital assets. We believe Free Cash Flow is a liquidity measure and useful supplemental financial measure for us and investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments to grow our business and to service our debt. Reconciliations of Free Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
