Aris Water Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: ARIS) (“Aris,” “Aris Water” or the “Company”) today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

SECOND QUARTER 2024 HIGHLIGHTS

  • Increased produced water volumes 5% and recycled water volumes 6% versus the second quarter of 2023
  • Achieved net income of $13.1 million, a 26% increase versus the second quarter of 2023
  • Generated Adjusted EBITDA1 of $50.0 million, up 17% versus the second quarter of 2023
  • Achieved Gross Margin per barrel of $0.31 and Adjusted Operating Margin2 per barrel of $0.46, a 21% increase in Adjusted Operating Margin per barrel2 versus the second quarter of 2023
  • Maintained a strong balance sheet with quarter-end leverage of 2.2x3 and $299 million of available liquidity under our revolving credit facility
  • Increasing 2024 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $195 to $205 million, reflecting strong first half performance and further confidence in the outlook for the second half of the year

“Aris had a strong second quarter as resilient produced water volumes and operating margins combined to deliver outstanding results. Our customers are steadily growing their production and associated water volumes in our dedicated acreage, and we are pleased with how well Aris has performed to date this year. In the second half of the year, we will remain focused on operating and capital efficiencies, driving free cash flow and working with new and existing customers as we evaluate opportunities for further growth,” said Amanda Brock, President and CEO of Aris.

“While we remain focused on our core business, we continue to gauge how we can create additional value from our produced water stream and are increasingly optimistic regarding mineral extraction. In the second quarter, Aris signed a letter of intent with an established iodine production and marketing company to construct an iodine extraction facility at one of Aris’s Permian Basin produced water management facilities. Aris anticipates that this first iodine extraction facility in the Permian Basin will be operational by year-end 2025.

As it relates to our beneficial reuse efforts, we continue to work with regulators to accelerate the approval process for applications outside of oil and gas. The Aris-led Joint Industry Project (“JIP”) with ConocoPhilllips, Chevron, and ExxonMobil has successfully completed its second of three desalination pilots and is scheduled to complete Phase 1 testing by year-end to confirm that produced water can be cost effectively and safely treated for multiple uses.

Overall, we remain committed to continuous improvement in our operations, increasing automation and reducing costs while maintaining system safety and integrity. Margins are at record levels, capital expenditures are in line with expectations, and, when combined with our consistent, contracted produced water revenue stream, we have reached free cash flow generation that supports additional shareholder returns. We remain optimistic about our future opportunities as a leader in delivering sustainable comprehensive water management and infrastructure solutions to the industry.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Company uses financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel, Adjusted Net Income, net debt and leverage ratio, and Capital Expenditures. Although these Non-GAAP financial measures are important factors in assessing the Company’s operating results and cash flows, they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or gross margin or any other measures prepared under GAAP.

The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus: interest expense; income taxes; depreciation, amortization and accretion expense; abandoned well costs, asset impairment and abandoned project charges; losses on the sale of assets; transaction costs; research and development expense; change in payables related to the Tax Receivable Agreement liability as a result of state tax rate changes; loss on debt modification; stock-based compensation expense; and other non-recurring or unusual expenses or charges (such as litigation expenses and severance costs), less any gains on the sale of assets.

The Company calculates Adjusted Operating Margin as Gross Margin plus depreciation, amortization and accretion. The Company defines Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel as Adjusted Operating Margin divided by total volumes handled, sold or transferred.

The Company calculates Adjusted Net Income as Net Income (Loss) plus the after-tax impacts of stock-based compensation and plus or minus the after-tax impacts of certain items affecting comparability, which are typically noncash and/or nonrecurring items. The Company calculated Diluted Adjusted Net Income Per Share as (i) Net Income (Loss) plus the after-tax impacts of stock-based compensation and plus or minus the after-tax impacts of certain items affecting comparability, which are typically noncash and/or nonrecurring items, divided by (ii) the diluted weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, assuming the full exchange of all outstanding LLC interests, adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based awards.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company calculates its leverage ratio as net debt as of June 30, 2024, divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months. Net debt is calculated as the principal amount of total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2024, less cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024.

The Company calculates Capital Expenditures as cash capital expenditures for property, plant, and equipment additions less changes in accrued capital costs.

The Company believes these presentations are used by investors and professional research analysts for the valuation, comparison, rating, and investment recommendations of companies within its industry. Similarly, the Company’s management uses this information for comparative purposes as well. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel, Adjusted Net Income, and Capital Expenditures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as measures of liquidity or as alternatives to net income (loss), gross margin, or cash paid for property, plant and equipment. Additionally, these presentations as defined by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) and other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as gross margin, operating income, net income, cash paid for property, plant, and equipment or cash flows from operating activities.

Although we provide forecasts for the non-GAAP measures Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel, and Capital Expenditures, we are not able to forecast their most directly comparable measures (net income, gross margin, and cash paid for property, plant, and equipment) calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Certain elements of the composition of forward-looking GAAP metrics are not predictable, making it impractical for us to forecast. Such elements include but are not limited to non-recurring gains or losses, unusual or non-recurring items, income tax benefit or expense, or one-time transaction costs and cost of revenue, which could have a significant impact on the GAAP measures. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results. As a result, no reconciliation of forecasted non-GAAP measures is provided.
