Aris Water Solutions, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2024 Results, Announces 17% Increase to Quarterly Dividend

HOUSTON, Texas, May 7, 2024 – Aris Water Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: ARIS) (“Aris,” “Aris Water” or the “Company”) today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

FIRST QUARTER 2024 HIGHLIGHTS

Increased produced water volumes 6% quarter-over-quarter and 19% versus the first quarter of 2023
Grew recycled produced water volumes 31% versus the first quarter of 2023
Achieved first quarter 2024 net income of $16.8 million, a 29% increase sequentially
Generated Adjusted EBITDA1 of $53.1 million for the first quarter, up 8% sequentially and up 39% versus the first quarter of 2023
Improved Gross Margin per Barrel by 19% and Adjusted Operating Margin2 per Barrel by 12% sequentially, new all-time highs reflecting the continued success of electrification and cost reduction initiatives
Maintained a strong balance sheet with quarter-end leverage of 2.15x3 and $324 million of available liquidity under our revolving credit facility
Announcing a 17% increase to the quarterly dividend from $0.09 per share to $0.105 per share, reflecting consistent business performance and confidence in the Company’s long-term outlook

“Aris had an exceptional start to 2024, continuing to build on our momentum and strong results from last year. We grew produced water volumes 6% sequentially and expanded our operating margins to new highs. Our consistent performance is reflective of the hard work of our dedicated team leveraging our critical expansive infrastructure to support the delivery of our differentiated water solutions,” said Amanda Brock, President and CEO of Aris.

“Aris’s long-term infrastructure contracts continue to provide significant volume and revenue visibility. Over 80% of our revenue is from these production-based dedication agreements in the core of the Permian Basin from top-tier customers. We’ve steadily increased our volumes and


achieved record margins while finding ways to better leverage our asset footprint to lower our capital spending. Our persistent focus on efficiency is evident in our results, as our Adjusted EBITDA grew 8% sequentially, exceeding our expectations and guidance.

Given our balance sheet strength, expectations for continued growth, and confidence in our ability to increase our free cash flow, we are pleased to announce a 17% increase to our quarterly dividend. We expect to further reduce our capital expenditures in the second half of 2024 and intend to evaluate additional opportunities to increase returns to shareholders.

While we remain focused on execution in our core environmental infrastructure business, we are evaluating adjacent growth opportunities and have made progress in our beneficial reuse and mineral extraction efforts. We are successfully piloting and developing processes to desalinate and treat produced water to standards acceptable for aquifer replenishment, agriculture, and industrial uses and are actively pursuing how to cost effectively scale these technologies.

After extensive long-term testing, Aris has identified high-value minerals that could potentially be economically recovered from our produced water. Aris is now assessing potential partnership opportunities to commercialize the extraction of certain minerals.

Beneficial reuse and mineral extraction could expand our markets and revenue streams, and we are excited to be taking a leadership role in the future of the industry while executing exceptionally well and returning cash to shareholders.”

FINANCIAL UPDATE

Net income was $16.8 million for the first quarter of 2024 versus net income of $7.7 million in the first quarter of 2023 and net income of $13.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted Net Income1 was $20.1 million for the first quarter of 2024 versus $9.8 million for the first quarter of 2023 and $15.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA1 was $53.1 million for the first quarter of 2024, up approximately 39% from $38.1 million in the first quarter of 2023, and up approximately 8% from $49.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Gross Margin per Barrel for the first quarter of 2024 was $0.32 per barrel versus $0.24 per barrel in the first quarter of 2023.


Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel2 for the first quarter of 2024 was $0.46 per barrel versus $0.39 per barrel in the first quarter of 2023.

First quarter 2024 Capital Expenditures4 totaled approximately $38 million versus $48 million in the first quarter of 2023.

STRONG BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $21 million in cash and $324 million available under its revolving credit facility for total available liquidity of $345 million. The Company’s leverage ratio at the end of the first quarter of 2024 was 2.15X3, below the low end of its target leverage range of 2.5X-3.5X.

SECOND QUARTER 2024 DIVIDEND INCREASE

On April 30, 2024, Aris’s Board of Directors approved a 17% increase to Aris’s quarterly dividend to $0.105 per share. In conjunction with the dividend payment, a distribution of $0.105 per unit will be paid to unit holders of Solaris Midstream Holdings, LLC. The dividend will be paid on June 20, 2024, to holders of record of the Company’s Class A common stock as of the close of business on June 6, 2024. The distribution to unit holders of Solaris Midstream Holdings, LLC will be subject to the same payment and record dates.

SECOND QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK

“2024 is off to a strong start and we are encouraged by our outlook for the rest of the year. The first quarter of 2024 benefited from new well connections being delivered earlier than expected, which pulled forward produced water volumes from the second quarter into the first. Additionally, certain flowback volumes resulted in higher skim oil recoveries than we normally see and certain well maintenance costs were delayed until later this year. We estimate the EBITDA benefit to the quarter from these items was approximately $4.0 million.

As we update our outlook for the balance of the year and consider first quarter results, we are increasing the low-end of our 2024 Adjusted EBITDA guidance, establishing a new range of between $185 and $200 million,” said Amanda Brock.

For the second quarter of 2024, the Company expects:

Produced Water Handling volumes between 1,015 and 1,045 thousand barrels of water per day
Water Solutions volumes between 400 and 430 thousand barrels of water per day
Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel2 between $0.42 and $0.44
Skim oil recoveries of approximately 1,200 barrels per day
Adjusted EBITDA1 between $44 and $48 million
Capital Expenditures4 between $38 and $43 million, consistent with Aris’s first-half weighted capital plan; no change to Aris’s full year capital expenditure outlook of $85 to $105 million

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 temporary power costs, 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 and temporary power costs. 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 March 31, 2024, the Company calculates its leverage ratio as net debt as of March 31, 2024, divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months. Net debt is calculated as the principal amount of total debt outstanding as of March 31, 2024, less cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 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 non-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.
