Management Comments Sam Sledge, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "In the second quarter of 2024, despite industry challenges, ProPetro's strategic focus on industrializing our business and creating long term value remains strong. We continue to generate strong free cash flow, showcasing the effectiveness of our strategy. Our ongoing transition from diesel equipment to FORCESM electric equipment remains on track, bolstering our competitive edge both commercially and operationally. Our recent acquisitions, including AquaPropSM, highlight our disciplined approach to value accretive M&A and in the face of a challenging energy services landscape, ProPetro's strategic initiatives are delivering. Our transformational efforts, including fleet optimization, share repurchases, and opportunistic acquisitions, have bolstered our financial resilience and positioned us favorably amidst industry headwinds. Demand for our bifurcated services remains strong, underscored by our commitment to operational excellence and the deployment of innovative technologies like our FORCESM electric equipment. With a clear focus on industrialization and disciplined capital allocation, we are confident in our ability to sustain strong free cash flow and drive long-term value for our stakeholders." David Schorlemer, Chief Financial Officer, said, "Our second quarter results reflect a remarkable turnaround unfolding at ProPetro, one of reliable free cash flow generation. While revenues and profitability were impacted by some customer delays and pricing pressures predominantly on our Tier II diesel frac fleets, capital spending remained low driving a fifth consecutive quarter of strong free cash flow. Another key aspect of our strategy has been selective M&A to complement our existing businesses and drive incremental free cash flow per share. Since acquiring Silvertip, we have repurchased and retired more than 100% of the number of shares issued to Silvertip shareholders during the acquisition. Additionally, we are continuing to benefit from the high EBITDA to free cash flow conversion of this EXHIBIT 99.1
segment. We expect our disciplined investments and consistent operations to continue to drive more durable free cash flow today and in the future." Second Quarter 2024 Financial Summary Revenue was $357 million, compared to $406 million for the first quarter of 2024. The 12% decrease in revenue was largely attributable to customer delays, pricing pressures particularly on our Tier II diesel assets, and weather impact in our hydraulic fracturing and wireline businesses during the quarter. Cost of services, excluding depreciation and amortization of approximately $56 million relating to cost of services, decreased to $266 million from $289 million during the first quarter of 2024. General and administrative expense of $31 million increased from $28 million in the first quarter of 2024. G&A expense excluding nonrecurring and noncash items (stock-based compensation, transaction expense, and other items) of $6 million, was $25 million, or 7% of revenue. Net loss totaled $4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to net income of $20 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $66 million from $93 million in the first quarter of 2024 primarily related to decreased revenues noted above. Net cash provided by operating activities was $105 million as compared to $75 million in the prior quarter. Free Cash Flow was approximately $48 million as compared to Free Cash Flow of approximately $41 million in the prior quarter. Share Repurchase Program On April 24, 2024, the Company announced a $100 million increase to its share repurchase program increasing it to a total of $200 million while extending the plan to May 2025. During the quarter, the Company repurchased and retired 2.5 million shares for $23 million. Since inception, the Company has acquired and retired 11.3 million shares representing approximately 10% of its outstanding shares as of the date of plan inception. Liquidity and Capital Spending As of June 30, 2024, total cash was $67 million and our borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility were $45 million. Total liquidity at the end of the second quarter of 2024 was $145 million including cash and $78 million of available capacity under the ABL Credit Facility. Capital expenditures during the second quarter of 2024 were primarily related to maintenance and support equipment for our FORCESM electric hydraulic fracturing fleet deployments. Net cash used in investing activities during the second quarter of 2024 was $57 million of which $21 million was related to the acquisition of AquaPropSM. Guidance The Company is now reducing our full-year 2024 capital expenditure guidance to be between $175 million to $200 million, down from our prior guidance of $200 million to $250 million. Our effective frac fleet utilization for the second quarter was 15.5 fleets, which was above the guidance range we had provided. Thanks to efficiencies exceeding our expectations from previous years, we are shifting away from reporting on fleet utilization based on days worked. Instead, we'll focus on guiding and reporting the number of active frac fleets, which we believe better represents asset utilization in our hydraulic fracturing business. During the second quarter, 14 hydraulic fracturing fleets were active and we expect to run approximately 14 active frac fleets in the third quarter of 2024. EXHIBIT 99.1
Outlook Mr. Sledge added, “Looking ahead, we expect the second half of the year to play out similarly to the first half. Our bifurcated fleet offering paired with a first class operating team is contributing to industry-leading efficiencies and high customer satisfaction. The demand for our FORCESM electric equipment continues to outstrip our current supply and that demand coupled with the continued integration of our recent acquisitions should support even more resilient earnings as we progress through the balance of this year and beyond. Additionally, with our strong balance sheet and steady free cash flow generation, we continue to make excellent progress on all our strategic priorities, and we will continue to evaluate opportunities to further enhance financial returns and the overall competitiveness of our offering.” Mr. Sledge concluded, “Our strategy is designed to navigate the current market environment and drive long-term value. With a focus on operational excellence, advanced technology adoption, and a sound financial footing, ProPetro has minimized the volatility present in past cycles and is well-prepared to capitalize on the opportunities ahead."

This cost is recorded within cost of services in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow adjusted for Acquisition Consideration are not financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax expense (benefit) and (iii) depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (i) loss (gain) on disposal of assets, (ii) stock-based compensation, (iii) other expense (income), (iv) other unusual or nonrecurring (income) expenses such as costs related to asset acquisitions, insurance recoveries, one-time professional fees and legal settlements and (v) retention bonus and severance expense. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used in investing activities. We define Free Cash Flow adjusted for Acquisition Consideration as Free Cash Flow excluding net cash paid as consideration for business acquisitions. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. Net income (loss) is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA, and net cash from operating activities is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow adjusted for Acquisition Consideration. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow or Free Cash Flow adjusted for Acquisition Consideration in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow adjusted for Acquisition Consideration may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
