Aris Water Solutions, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2022 Results

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Aris Water Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: ARIS) (“Aris”, “Aris Water” or the “Company”) today announced financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

THIRD QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

  • Total water volumes of more than 1.4 million barrels per day for the third quarter of 2022, up 47% versus the third quarter of 2021 and up 14% sequentially from the second quarter of 2022.
  • Recycled produced water volumes of approximately 345 thousand barrels per day for the third quarter of 2022, up 165% versus the third quarter of 2021 and up 16% sequentially from the second quarter of 2022.
  • Net income of $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted Net Income 1 of $13.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, up 98% versus the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA 1 of $39.3 million for the third quarter of 2022, up 28% versus the third quarter of 2021.

RECENT EVENTS

  • Announced strategic agreement with Chevron U.S.A Inc. (“Chevron”) and ConocoPhillips Corporation (“ConocoPhillips”) to develop and pilot technologies and processes to treat produced water for potential beneficial reuse opportunities.
  • Completed acquisition of intellectual property rights, treatment technologies and assets from Water Standard Management (US), Inc. (“Water Standard”) which are expected to support and advance the Company’s efforts related to the beneficial reuse of produced water.

“In the third quarter, we continued to perform, growing our volumes and providing reliable, sustainable water solutions for our customers,” stated Amanda Brock, Chief Executive Officer of Aris. “We continue to benefit from our long-term contracts with leading operators who are committed to the Permian Basin. Our significant existing infrastructure overlays some of the lowest breakeven rock in the Permian Basin supporting our customers as they prioritize investments in our contracted acreage. Alongside our growth, we are focused on optimizing our operations while identifying additional efficiencies to improve our operating margins and offset the impact of recent extraordinary inflationary pressures. We are also very encouraged by our recent strategic agreement with ConocoPhillips and Chevron as well as the acquisition of technology and assets from Water Standard. These key transactions further demonstrate our leadership and commitment to beneficial reuse.”

OPERATIONS UPDATE

For the third quarter of 2022, the Company averaged approximately 1.4 million barrels of water per day of total volumes handled, up approximately 47% from 961 thousand barrels of water per day for the third quarter of 2021. The Company’s volume growth was primarily driven by increased activity levels from our long-term contracted customers and continued adoption of our recycled produced water solutions.

FINANCIAL UPDATE

Net income of $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2022, up from a net loss of $20.7 million in the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted Net Income 1 of $13.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, up 98% versus the third quarter of 2021.

The Company had Adjusted EBITDA 1 of $39.3 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $30.8 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of 28%. Aris continues to grow its Adjusted EBITDA alongside its long-term contracted customers and increased demand for its sustainable water recycling solutions.

The Company had gross margin per barrel of $0.23 per barrel for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $0.23 per barrel in the third quarter of 2021. The Company had Adjusted Operating Margin per barrel 2 of $0.36 per barrel for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $0.41 per barrel in the third quarter of 2021. Operating margins for the quarter were negatively impacted by ongoing inflationary pressure and non-recurring startup costs at new reuse facilities.

Third quarter 2022 property, plant, and equipment expenditures totaled $48.7 million compared to $20.4 million in the third quarter of 2021. Aris continues to invest in high-return capital projects that support its long-term contracted customers and leverage its existing infrastructure.

STRONG BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $25.2 million in cash and an available revolving credit facility of approximately $199.9 million for a total available liquidity of approximately $225.1 million.

FOURTH QUARTER 2022 DIVIDEND

On November 4, 2022, Aris’s Board of Directors declared a dividend on its Class A common stock for the fourth quarter of 2022 of $0.09 per share. In conjunction with the dividend payment, a distribution of $0.09 per unit will be paid to unit holders of Solaris Midstream Holdings, LLC. The dividend will be paid on November 30, 2022, to holders of record of the Company’s Class A common stock as of the close of business on November 17, 2022. The distribution to unit holders of Solaris Midstream Holdings, LLC will be subject to the same payment and record dates.

FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

For the fourth quarter of 2022, Aris projects Adjusted EBITDA1 between $39.0 and $41.0 million, consistent with the lower end of our previously provided guidance of $150.0-$160.0 million for the full year of 2022. We expect our capital expenditures for the full year of 2022 to be between $140.0 and $150.0 million, consistent with previously provided guidance.

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, and Adjusted Net Income. 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 impairments and abandoned project charges; losses on the sale and/or exchange of assets; loss on debt modification; and non-recurring or unusual expenses or charges (including temporary power costs), less any gains on sale and/or exchange of assets.

The Company calculates Adjusted Operating Margin as Gross Margin plus depreciation, amortization and accretion and temporary power costs. The Company defines Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel as Adjusted Operating Margin divided by total volumes.

The Company calculates Adjusted Net Income as Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Stockholders’/Members’ Equity 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) Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Stockholder’s Equity 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 September 30, 2022, the Company calculates its leverage ratio as net debt as of September 30, 2022, divided by annualized 3Q 2022 Adjusted EBITDA. Net debt is calculated as the principal amount of total debt outstanding as of September 30, 2022, less cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022.

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, and Adjusted Net Income are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as measures of liquidity or as alternatives to net income (loss) or gross margin. 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 or cash flows from operating activities.

Although we provide forecasts for the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA, we are not able to forecast the most directly comparable measure net income calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. Certain elements of the composition of the GAAP net income 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, which could have a significant impact on the GAAP measure. As a result, no reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted GAAP net income is provided.
