John Turner, President & CEO, commented, “Our third quarter results were impacted by higher operating expenses related to lingering expenses related to the Kermit feed system rebuild and our follow-on initiatives to improve our operational processes and systems to ensure that the productive capabilities of our key plants are optimized. Importantly, the commissioning of the Dune Express commenced earlier this month. Our focus is on ensuring that Atlas’ diversified network of mines and logistics solutions is optimized for the transformational Dune Express delivery system and our expected expansion of sales in 2025.”

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Third quarter 2024 total sales increased $16.9 million, or 6% when compared to the second quarter of 2024, to $304.4 million. Product sales increased $17.1 million, or 13% when compared to the second quarter of 2024, to $145.3 million. Third quarter 2024 sales volumes increased to 6.0 million tons, or 22% when compared to the second quarter of 2024, which was offset by lower average pricing experienced during the period. Service sales were relatively flat when compared to the second quarter of 2024, at $159.1 million.

Third quarter 2024 cost of sales (excluding depreciation, depletion and accretion expense) (“cost of sales”) increased by $23.2 million, or 11% when compared to the second quarter of 2024, to $225.3 million. The increase in our cost of sales was primarily driven by temporarily higher costs at our Kermit facility associated with process improvements, the re-start of full mining operations, and delays in dredge commissioning. In addition, our costs of sales include incremental operating costs associated with OnCore deployments.

---

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the third quarter of 2024 decreased $1.8 million, or 7% when compared to the second quarter of 2024, to $25.5 million. Included within our SG&A is $6.3 million in stock based compensation and $2.4 million in other acquisition related costs.

Net income for the third quarter of 2024 was $3.9 million, and Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2024 was $71.1 million.

 

Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other

As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s total liquidity was $253.4 million, which was comprised of $78.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, $74.8 million of availability under the Company’s ABL Facility, and $100 million of availability under the Company's Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility. The Company had $50.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility and $0.2 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit.

Net cash used in investing activities was $76.3 million during the third quarter of 2024, driven largely by the construction of the Dune Express and other process and operational improvements.

 

Quarterly Cash Dividend

On October 24, 2024, the Board of Directors of Atlas declared an increased dividend to common stockholders of $0.24 per share, or approximately $26.5 million in aggregate to shareholders. The dividend will be payable on November 14, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 7, 2024.

 

Subsequent Events

Share Buyback Program

Subsequent to quarter end, the Board of Directors of Atlas authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $200 million of outstanding stock through December 31, 2026.

 

The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, through block trades, in privately negotiated transactions, through derivative transactions or by other means and in accordance with federal securities laws. The timing, as well as the number and value of shares repurchased under the program, will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors including management's assessment of the intrinsic value of the Company's common stock, the market price of the Company's common stock, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, compliance with the Company’s debt and other agreements, applicable legal requirements, and other considerations. The exact number of shares to be repurchased by the Company is not guaranteed, and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The Company expects to fund the repurchases by using cash on hand and expected free cash flow to be generated over the next two years.

About Atlas Energy Solutions

Atlas Energy Solutions Inc. is a leading proppant producer and proppant logistics provider, serving primarily the Permian Basin of West Texas and New Mexico. We operate 14 proppant production facilities across the Permian Basin with a combined annual production capacity of 29 million tons, including both large-scale in-basin facilities and smaller distributed mining units. We manage a portfolio of leading-edge logistics assets, which includes our 42-mile Dune Express conveyor system, which is currently under construction and is scheduled to come online in the fourth quarter of 2024. In addition to our conveyor infrastructure, we manage a fleet of 120 trucks, which are capable of delivering expanded payloads due to our custom-manufactured trailers and patented drop-depot process. Our approach to managing both our proppant production and proppant logistics operations is intently focused on leveraging technology, automation and remote operations to drive efficiencies.

 

We are a low-cost producer of various high-quality, locally sourced proppants used during the well completion process. We offer both dry and damp sand, and carry various mesh sizes including 100 mesh and 40/70 mesh. Proppant is a key component necessary to facilitate the recovery of hydrocarbons from oil and natural gas wells.

 

Our logistics platform is designed to increase the efficiency, safety and sustainability of the oil and natural gas industry within the Permian Basin. Proppant logistics is increasingly a differentiating factor affecting customer choice among proppant producers. The cost of delivering sand, even short distances, can be a significant component of customer spending on their well completions given the substantial volumes that are utilized in modern well designs.

 

We continue to invest in and pursue leading-edge technologies, including autonomous trucking, digital infrastructure, and artificial intelligence, to support opportunities to gain efficiencies in our operations. To this end, we have recently taken delivery of next-generation dredge mining assets to drive efficiencies in our proppant production operations. These technology-focused investments aim to improve our cost structure and also combine to produce beneficial environmental and community impacts.

 

While our core business is fundamentally aligned with a lower emissions economy, our core obligation has been, and will always be, to our stockholders. We recognize that maximizing value for our stockholders requires that we optimize the outcomes for our broader stakeholders, including our employees and the communities in which we operate. We are proud of the fact that our approach to innovation in the hydrocarbon industry while operating in an environmentally responsible manner creates immense value. Since our founding in 2017, our core mission has been to improve human beings’ access to the hydrocarbons that power our lives while also delivering differentiated social and environmental progress. Our Atlas team has driven innovation and has produced industry-leading environmental benefits by reducing energy consumption, emissions, and our aerial footprint. We call this Sustainable Environmental and Social Progress.

 

We were founded in 2017 by Ben M. “Bud” Brigham, our Executive Chairman, and are led by an entrepreneurial team with a history of constructive disruption bringing significant and complementary experience to this enterprise, including the perspective of longtime E&P operators, which provides for an elevated understanding of the end users of our products and services. Our executive management team has a proven track record with a history of generating positive returns and value creation. Our experience as E&P operators was instrumental to our understanding of the opportunity created by in-basin sand production and supply in the Permian Basin, which we view as North America’s premier shale resource and which we believe will remain its most active through economic cycles.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion and Maintenance Capital Expenditures are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures used by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts and others, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, to assess our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of development activities, provide views on capital resources available to organically fund growth projects and, in the case of Adjusted Free Cash Flow, assess the financial performance of our assets and their ability to sustain dividends or reinvest to organically fund growth projects over the long term without regard to financing methods, capital structure, or historical cost basis.

 

These measures do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion and Maintenance Capital Expenditures may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.
