  • Deploying our first digiPrimeSM fleet in Canada for a cross-border Liberty customer
  • Commenced commercial operations of SLXRRYTM, Liberty’s proprietary last-mile sand slurry delivery system enabling lower delivered sand costs and reduced truck traffic, road wear, dust and emissions “The second quarter demonstrated strong operational execution as our team continued to deliver proven quality services amidst commodity price volatility and heightened geopolitical uncertainty. Liberty delivered revenue of $1.2 billion and Adjusted EBITDA of $151 million, leveraging the benefits of our strategic investments and AI-driven technology advancements as the industry modestly strengthened from early year cyclical lows,” commented Ron Gusek, Chief Executive Officer. “The success of our digiPrime platform in the U.S. has translated into a notable milestone, with the upcoming fleet deployment in Canada alongside a key cross-border customer. This demonstrates our ability to scale across North America while reinforcing how continuous technology innovation creates sustainable differentiation across our businesses.”

“Our recently announced JV with PowerBridge represents an important step in expanding Liberty’s participation in digital infrastructure and large-load power markets. By combining PowerBridge’s powered campus development platform with Liberty Power Innovations’ (“LPI”) integrated power generation, energy management expertise, and operational capabilities, we are creating a differentiated offering for hyperscale, AI, and other large-load customers,” continued Mr. Gusek. “The venture is designed to create a scalable framework that aligns both organizations across the full infrastructure stack, enabling a more integrated approach to delivering powered campuses for next generation digital infrastructure. PowerBridge’s planned portfolio of gigawatt scale West Texas campuses expands our opportunities to deploy Liberty’s power solutions at scale.”

Please see the supplemental financial information in the table under “Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA” at the end of this earnings release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

2 “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share” are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Please see the supplemental financial information in the table under “Reconciliation of Net Income and Net Income per Diluted Share to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share” at the end of this earnings release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

“Last week we announced a strategic alliance with SLB, bringing together Liberty’s integrated power solutions with SLB’s modular infrastructure capabilities and global market presence in a seamless solution to help address the growing need for scalable, power and electrical infrastructure solutions, both inside and outside the walls of the data center, with a unified interface for customers. This collaboration enhances our ability to pursue larger and more diverse opportunities while advancing our technology roadmap and supporting the rapid buildout of infrastructure required for AI and high-performance computing,” continued Mr. Gusek.

“Our LPI platform sets a new standard, combining power system architecture and energy market optimization. During the quarter, we secured multiple agreements to purchase power generation equipment with Bergen Engines, Wärtsilä, and other global suppliers. Our technology architecture and advantaged proprietary control systems are designed to integrate multiple leading manufacturers, enabling us to leverage the favorable attributes unique to each engine type for the optimization of the generation stack,” continued Mr. Gusek. “We also recently announced the formation of LWC, extending Liberty’s Chorus offering through direct participation in ERCOT power markets. We are now able to integrate on-site generation with both ERCOT and PJM market participation for large-load customers, positioning us to leverage favorable grid attributes while providing grid resilience within local communities.”

“We believe the opportunities in front of Liberty today are broader and more diverse than at any point in our history. Our completions business continues to benefit from years of disciplined investment in technology, execution, and customer relationships, while our power platform continues to advance through commercial engagement, strategic relationships, and the development of differentiated capabilities across the energy infrastructure value chain,” continued Mr. Gusek. “We remain focused on disciplined capital allocation, operational excellence, and investing in opportunities that strengthen our competitive position and create long-term value for our shareholders.”

Outlook

The most enduring consequence of the Middle East energy disruption has been a renewed focus on energy security and supply diversification. Heightened geopolitical risk, damage to regional energy infrastructure, and continued uncertainty surrounding key export corridors have reinforced the strategic importance of North American oil and natural gas resources. This shift is increasingly evident in commercial activity, with international buyers pursuing longer-term agreements for U.S. petroleum products and LNG, while also seeking greater direct participation in upstream supply. Planned storage expansions across Southeast Asia and Australia, together with the need to replenish depleted strategic reserves, are expected to support incremental demand for North American energy over time. As a result, U.S. and Canadian oil, natural gas, and refined products are becoming increasingly important to meeting global energy needs, supporting a constructive long-term outlook for North American energy.

Global oil and gas markets experienced significant volatility during the quarter. The conflict in Iran and related energy supply disruption drove oil prices to levels not seen since 2022 before moderating as softer Chinese demand tempered some of the resulting supply uncertainty. While it remains too early to fully assess the long-term impact of recent developments including the trajectory of Chinese demand, recent events have reinforced the complexity and interconnected nature of global energy markets. Although the acute phase of the crisis moderated following the June ceasefire and partial reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, renewed U.S.-Iran tensions highlighted the fragility of the recovery. Early signs of normalization in physical oil flows, LNG exports, and shipping logistics proved short-lived as transit through the Strait disrupted supply chains once again.

Frac markets improved modestly alongside a gradual increase in North American producer activity, providing greater transparency into the underlying availability of frac fleets impacted by years of fleet attrition and equipment cannibalization. Improved market conditions are supporting a modest recovery in service prices from cyclical lows earlier in the year. Next generation technologies remain in high demand as current commodity prices reinforce both the economic value of the diesel to natural gas fuel arbitrage and the benefits of AI-enhanced systems that reduce total fuel consumption. However, large U.S. and Canadian producers remain cautious toward increasing activity levels given continued price volatility and broader macroeconomic uncertainty, although recent developments in Canada are encouraging for the longer term outlook.

Power demand fundamentals remain strong, driven by the continued expansion of AI data center development and broader industrial power demand. As project requirements increase in scale and complexity, customers are prioritizing infrastructure partners capable of coordinating power supply, site readiness, energy management, and long-term operations through a unified development approach. At the same time, hyperscalers continue to expand their internal technical and commercial capabilities, enabling a more comprehensive evaluation of long-term power and infrastructure strategies. This evolution is creating greater opportunities for power providers capable of delivering integrated solutions across the infrastructure value chain while helping hyperscale customers address a diverse range of development strategies, site characteristics, power markets, and speed-to-power objectives.

“Liberty’s DNA is rooted in solving customer challenges through innovation, technical expertise, and a culture of execution, which are attributes that align closely with the needs of today’s largest energy and technology companies. Power customers are becoming increasingly aware that successful power solutions require dedicated partners capable of delivering integrated solutions and long-term operational support. This dynamic is familiar to Liberty, as our oil and gas customers have long relied on us as a trusted partner to unlock incremental value year after year,” continued Mr. Gusek.

“Looking ahead to the third quarter, we are encouraged by the momentum in the second quarter, while recognizing the uncertainties associated with global geopolitical developments and the potential effects on our customers and markets. We remain focused on executing against the broader opportunities emerging across the energy ecosystem.” continued Mr. Gusek.

Cash Dividend

During the quarter ended June 30, 2026, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.09 per share of Class A common stock, or approximately $15 million in aggregate to shareholders.

On July 14, 2026, the Board declared a cash dividend of $0.09 per share of Class A common stock, to be paid on September 18, 2026 to holders of record as of September 4, 2026.

Future declarations of quarterly cash dividends are subject to approval by the Board of Directors and to the Board’s continuing determination that the declarations of dividends are in the best interests of Liberty and its stockholders.

Second Quarter Results

For the second quarter of 2026, revenue was $1.2 billion, an increase of 14% from $1.0 billion in the second quarter of 2025 and an increase of 16% from $1.0 billion in the first quarter of 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This earnings release includes unaudited non-GAAP financial and operational measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share, and Adjusted Pre-Tax Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”). We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial and operational measures provides useful information about our financial performance and results of operations. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to eliminate the effects of items such as non-cash stock-based compensation, new fleet or new basin start-up costs, fleet lay-down costs, gain or loss on the disposal of assets, gain or loss on investments, net, bad debt reserves, transaction and other costs, the loss or gain on remeasurement of liability under our tax receivable agreements, and other expenses that management does not consider in assessing ongoing performance.

Our board of directors, management, investors, and lenders use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess our financial performance because it allows them to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of our capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation, depletion, and amortization) and other items that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period. We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe they provide useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting our business in addition to measures calculated under U.S. GAAP.

We present Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income per Diluted Share because we believe such measures provide useful information to investors regarding our operating performance by excluding the after-tax impacts of unusual or one-time benefits or costs, including items such as gain or loss on investments, net and transaction and other costs, primarily because management views the excluded items to be outside of our normal operating results. We define Adjusted Net (Loss) Income as net income after eliminating the effects of such excluded items and Adjusted Net (Loss) Income per Diluted Share as Adjusted Net (Loss) Income divided by the number of weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Management analyzes net income without the impact of these items as an indicator of performance to identify underlying trends in our business.

We define ROCE as the ratio of adjusted pre-tax net income (adding back income tax and certain adjustments that include tax receivable agreement impacts, gain or loss on investments, net, and transaction and other costs, when applicable) for the twelve months ended June 30, 2026 to Average Capital Employed. Average Capital Employed is the simple average of total capital employed (both debt and equity) as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. ROCE is presented based on our management’s belief that this non-GAAP measure is useful information to investors when evaluating our profitability and the efficiency with which management has employed capital over time. Our management uses ROCE for that purpose. ROCE is not a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, as defined by U.S. GAAP.

Non-GAAP financial and operational measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial and operational measures is not intended to be a substitute for, and should not be considered in isolation from, the financial measures reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. See the tables entitled Reconciliation and Calculation of Non-GAAP Financial and Operational Measures for a reconciliation or calculation of the non-GAAP financial or operational measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
