Company outlook raised

Share price after the results: −0.7%

2026 guidance raised: adjusted EBITDA of $103 million to $108 million (previously $92.5 million to $97.5 million, including the Flatrock acquisition), at least 55,000 horsepower deployed instead of 50,000.

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“Based on our second quarter performance, the Flatrock acquisition, contracted organic fleet additions, and our current visibility into the remainder of the year, we are increasing full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance to $103 million to $108 million from our previous range of $92.5 million to $97.5 million.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
