AI summary
What happened and why it matters
Flotek posted Q2 2026 revenue of $99.4m, up 70% YoY, with Data Analytics at a record $19.2m and accounting for 51% of gross profit. The Puerto Rico PREPA contract for 400 MW supports a $400m, 10-year opportunity, and management raised 2026 guidance to $270–$290m in revenue and $36–$41m EBITDA, excluding PREPA impact. The company’s data-driven pivot expands addressable markets and could sustain upside beyond 2026.

- Guidance raised to $270–$290m revenue and $36–$41m EBITDA, increasing investor confidence.

Sentiment rationale
Strong Q2 beat signals operating leverage in Data Analytics, a higher-margin mix shift, and a large, visible PREPA contract that could sustain revenue/EBITDA growth; guidance uplifts (despite PREPA caveat) are positive, potentially re-rating multiple expansion.
