("Flotek" or the "Company") (NYSE: FTK), a leader in innovative energy solutions, today announced its financial results for the quarter and nine-months ended September 30, 2025, which reflect continued successful execution of its transformational strategy and robust growth across its two segments. Financial Summary (in thousands, except 'per share' amounts) Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 2024 % Change 2025 2024 % Change Total Revenues $      56,031 $      49,742 13 % $    169,743 $    136,267 25 % Gross Profit $      17,783 $         9,119 95 % $      44,639 $      27,108 65 % Net Income $      20,355 $         2,532 704 % $      27,503 $         6,068 353 % Diluted Income Per Share $           0.53 $           0.08 563 % $           0.78 $           0.20 290 % Adjusted EBITDA (1) $      11,721 $         4,840 142 % $      28,953 $      13,303 118 % Highlights: (all comparisons versus Q3 2024 unless noted)  Total revenues increased 13% driven largely by the Data Analytics segment, as the mobile gas conditioning assets acquired in the second quarter of 2025 (the "Acquired Assets") generated $6.1 million of third quarter 2025 revenue. Data Analytics segment revenues grew to 16% of total revenues, up from 5% in third quarter 2024, helping to deliver total Company gross profit margin of 32%, as compared to 18% in the year-ago quarter.  Data Analytics segment gross profit margin totaled 71% during the third quarter of 2025 as compared to 44% during the year-ago quarter. Net income totaled $20.4 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to $2.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter.  Third quarter 2025 net income included a $12.6 million tax benefit, as further discussed below.  Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased by 142% to $11.7 million, compared to $4.8 million in the year-ago quarter, representing the twelfth consecutive quarter of growth. On October 29, 2025 Flotek announced that the XSPCTTM analyzer was the first optical spectrometer to comply with GPA 2172 (O&G Custody Transfer Standard) 2025 Guidance Update: Based on strong year-to-date operational performance and the outlook for the fourth quarter, the Company is increasing its 2025 guidance ranges as follows ($MMs): Previous Guidance Revised Guidance Total Revenues $200-$220 $220-$225 Adjusted EBITDA (2) $34-$39 $35-$40 Management CommentaryChief Executive Officer Dr. Ryan Ezell commented, "Flotek delivered an outstanding third quarter, highlighted by reporting total Company gross profit margin of 32%. Throughout the quarter, we continued successfully executing our corporate strategy to transform Flotek into a data-driven technology enterprise. Our Data Analytics segment delivered quarterly revenue comparable to the full year 2024, reflecting accelerated adoption of our advanced analytics solutions supporting the industrial pivot within the energy infrastructure sector. Our Chemistry Technologies segment continued to expand market share, driven by strong demand for our innovative chemical solutions that enhance reservoir performance. Through the first three quarters of 2025, Chemistry segment revenues were 17% higher year-over-year. Our third quarter results underscore the strength in each of our segments and demonstrate our disciplined execution and steadfast commitment to creating value for our customers and shareholders even in challenging market conditions." Segment Revenue Summary (in thousands) Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 2024 % Change 2025 2024 % Change Chemistry Technologies: External Revenues $             20,221 $             14,097 43 % $ 64,773 $      42,143 54 % Related Party Revenues 26,956 32,977 (18) % 87,562 87,732 — % Total $             47,177 $             47,074 — % $  152,335 $    129,875 17 % Data Analytics: Product Revenues $               1,694 $               1,681 1 % $    5,176 $         3,920 32 % Service Revenues (3) 7,160 987 625 % 12,232 2,472 395 % Total $               8,854 $               2,668 232 % $ 17,408 $         6,392 172 % Revenues: Chemistry Technologies: The segment grew external revenue 43% as compared to the year-ago quarter. This growth reflects Flotek's ability to continue to capture market share despite a 25% year-over-year decline in North American frac fleets(4), indicating strong demand for our specialized chemistry solutions. However, related party chemistry purchases were impacted negatively by reduced fleet count utilization. Data Analytics: The segment achieved a 232% revenue increase as compared to the year-ago quarter, with service revenues growing 625% to $7.2 million, underscoring the growing market demand for Flotek's data-driven solutions that enhance operational efficiency for clients.  Third quarter 2025 service revenues include approximately $6.1 million related to the Acquired Assets.  Gross Profit: The Company generated gross profit of $17.8 million during the third quarter of 2025 compared to $9.1 million during the third quarter of 2024. The 95% increase in third quarter 2025 gross profit was driven by a 232% increase in high-margin Data Analytics revenue. Additionally, the reduction in related party chemistry sales, as compared to the year-ago quarter, resulted in a 28% increase in revenues attributable to the minimum chemistry purchase requirement contained in the Company's long-term supply agreement with ProFrac. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue totaled 32% in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to 18% in the year-ago period. Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") Expense: SG&A expense totaled $7.4 million for the third quarter of 2025, or 13% as a percentage of revenues, compared to $5.7 million during the third quarter of 2024, or 11% as a percentage of revenues. The increase in SG&A expenses during the third quarter of 2025 was primarily the result of higher professional fees and personnel costs including non-cash stock compensation costs. Net Income: In the third quarter of 2025, Flotek reported net income of $20.4 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, as compared to $2.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Net income during the third quarter of 2025 included a $12.6 million tax benefit related to previously reserved deferred tax assets. While the current quarter impact of the partial release of the valuation allowance is non-cash, it is a positive indication of the Company's outlook for generating future income from which it could utilize its deferred tax assets. Adjusted EBITDA(1) (Non-GAAP): Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $11.7 million in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2024. This marks the 12th consecutive quarter of Adjusted EBITDA(1) improvement. PWRtekTM Update: During the third quarter of 2025, revenues attributable to the Acquired Assets totaled $6.1 million with gross profit as a percentage of revenue totaling approximately 89%. As of September 30, 2025, all the Acquired Assets were in service and the Company expects fourth quarter and full year 2025 PWRtek revenues to total approximately $6.8 million and $16.1 million, respectively. Acquisition expenses related to the asset acquisition during the third quarter and nine-month periods of 2025 totaled $0.2 million and $4.4 million, respectively.

(2) A non-GAAP financial measure. See the "Unaudited Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Items and Non-Cash Items Impacting Earnings" table  in this release for more information about this measure. We are unable to reconcile this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts, as we are unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the impact of certain items that would be expected to impact the GAAP financial measure, including, among other items, certain stock-based compensation costs, interest costs related to fluctuations in borrowings outstanding under the Company's asset based loan and the impact of the revaluation of certain liabilities, which is based upon our future stock price. These items do not impact the non-GAAP financial measure. (3) Service revenues during the three- and nine-month 2025 periods include $6.1 million and $9.3 million respectively, related to PWRtek rental revenues.

In addition, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors, creditors and analysts with a clearer view of the Company's leverage profile and debt service capacity, enhancing comparability and augmenting the ability of investors, creditors and analysts to make investment decisions based upon liquidity. (2) The Company's contract assets arose from fixed, non-refundable consideration in the form of convertible notes issued by the Company to ProFrac in connection with the entry into the ProFrac Agreement and are amortized as a reduction of revenue over the contract term. While the GAAP presentation reduces revenue, these amounts economically represent the cost of acquiring the ProFrac Agreement, similar to commissions, marketing spend or other customer acquisition expenses. Accordingly, the Company's management treats the amortization of contract assets similar to a non-cash expense added-back to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA to more accurately reflect the recurring cash impact of the transaction and to maintain comparability with the treatment of other amortization costs and comparability of the Company's results with competitors that may not report amortization of contract assets. The Company believes that it is important for investors to understand that under GAAP, the amortization of contract assets is not an expense and instead reduces revenue. (3) Includes $0.2 million and $4.4 million of expenses related to Asset Acquisition for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. SOURCE Flotek Industries, Inc.
