    Management Commentary and Outlook

    “Exceptional execution drove Archrock’s outstanding second quarter performance,” said Brad Childers, Archrock’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “With unwavering customer demand for our services, we achieved another all-time high fleet utilization of 95% at quarter end and record monthly revenue per horsepower in the quarter. Higher pricing and our continued focus on cost management drove an increase in our contract operations gross margin percentage of 450 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2023. In aftermarket services, we delivered year-over-year gross margin growth of more than 40%, the result of encouraging outsourcing trends for equipment maintenance as well as meaningful price increases.

    “Our strong first half performance, the undersupplied compression market and an early and elevated level of customer bookings for 2024 give us confidence to raise expectations for the full-year 2023 and to expect this robust market to continue well into the future. Given the inflection point in our results, and reflecting our commitment to creating and returning value to our shareholders, we increased shareholder returns during the second quarter by over 15% on an annual basis, through an additional dividend increase and share repurchases.

    “Looking ahead, we believe natural gas production fundamentals remain durable and promising, particularly given our strong leverage to associated gas plays. In addition, the compression industry is as tight as we’ve ever seen, our competitive position is as strong as it’s ever been and our balance sheet offers distinctive flexibility within the compression sector. Based on our current outlook for 2024, we expect to be in the enviable position to grow our dividend, with a 2024 target of 5%, maintain a dividend coverage ratio of approximately 2.0x, and concurrently drive our leverage ratio even lower to a range of 3.0 to 3.5 times, all while also funding our growth capital expenditures and preserving optionality to buy back additional shares,” concluded Childers.  

    Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

    Archrock’s second quarter 2023 net income of $24.7 million included a non-cash long-lived and other asset impairment of $2.9 million and a non-cash unrealized change in the fair value of our investment in an unconsolidated affiliate of $1.7 million. Archrock’s second quarter 2022 net income of $16.7 million included a non-cash long-lived and other asset impairment of $4.6 million.

    2023 Annual Guidance

    Archrock is providing annual guidance as listed below. All figures are in thousands, except percentages and ratios:

            
      Full Year 2023 Guidance 
       Low  High 
    Net income (1)  $93,800 $113,800 
    Adjusted EBITDA(2)  430,000  450,000 
    Cash available for dividend(3)(4)  227,000  247,000 
            
    Segment       
    Contract operations revenue $800,000 $810,000 
    Contract operations gross margin percentage(5)  60% 62%
    Aftermarket services revenue $175,000 $185,000 
    Aftermarket services gross margin percentage  20% 22%
            
    Selling, general and administrative(5) $113,000 $110,000 
            
    Capital expenditures       
    Growth capital expenditures $200,000 $200,000 
    Maintenance capital expenditures  79,000  79,000 
    Other capital expenditures  16,000  16,000 


    (1)2023 annual guidance for net income includes $5.5 million of long-lived and other asset impairment as of June 30, 2023, but does not include the impact of any such future costs, because due to their nature, they cannot be accurately forecasted. Long-lived and other asset impairment does not impact Adjusted EBITDA or cash available for dividend (a non-GAAP measure defined below), however it is a reconciling item between these measures and net income. Long-lived and other asset impairment for both 2022 and 2021 was $21.4 million.
    (2)Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because this non-GAAP measure, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons.
    (3)Management uses cash available for dividend as a supplemental performance measure to compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned dividends.
    (4)A forward-looking estimate of cash provided by operating activities is not provided because certain items necessary to estimate cash provided by operating activities, including changes in assets and liabilities, are not estimable at this time. Changes in assets and liabilities were $(24.5) million and $(9.5) million for 2022 and 2021, respectively.
    (5)2023 annual guidance reflects the change in tax compliance for approximately $10 million of sales taxes associated with contract operations cost of sales; these costs will be accounted for in contract operations cost of sales in 2023 but were accounted for in selling, general and administrative costs during 2022 and 2021.

Accordingly, we have excluded net income attributable to participating securities from our calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share.

    (1)The amortization of capitalized implementation costs is a new adjustment beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022; as such, only the amounts for the first and second quarters of 2023 have been included.
    (2)Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because this non-GAAP measure, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons.
    (3)Management uses cash available for dividend as a supplemental performance measure to compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned dividends.

    _____________________

    (1)2023 annual guidance for net income includes $5.5 million of long-lived and other asset impairment as of June 30, 2023, but does not include the impact of any such future costs, because due to their nature, they cannot be accurately forecasted. Long-lived and other asset impairment does not impact Adjusted EBITDA or cash available for dividend, however it is a reconciling item between these measures and net income. Long-lived and other asset impairment for both 2022 and 2021 was $21.4 million.
    (2)Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because this non-GAAP measure, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons.
    (3)Management uses cash available for dividend as a supplemental performance measure to compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned dividends.
    (4)A forward-looking estimate of cash provided by operating activities is not provided because certain items necessary to estimate cash provided by operating activities, including changes in assets and liabilities, are not estimable at this time. Changes in assets and liabilities were $(24.5) million and $(9.5) million for 2022 and 2021, respectively.
