Mark Layton: Thank you, Mohammed. Good morning, everyone. I'll start with a brief review of 2025 as a whole, cover Q4 results, and then turn it over to Bernard Lancaster, our Chief Operating Officer, to walk through operational performance by segment. I'll then come back to cover the financials and our outlook for 2026, after which we'll open the line for questions. With that, let me start with 2025. Over the course of the year, we executed four major transactions that meaningfully reshaped the company. Collectively, these transactions generated approximately $150 million of proceeds, and they reflect two things. First, the value embedded in assets we built and operated well. Second, our willingness to monetize businesses that no longer fit our long-term return objectives. We sold our transmission and distribution and our engineering businesses at valuations we believe were attractive.

Collectively, these transactions generated approximately $150 million of proceeds, and they reflect two things: first, the value embedded in assets we built and operated well, and second, our willingness to monetize businesses that no longer fit our long-term return objectives.

Speaker #4: We sold our transmission and distribution, and our engineering businesses, at valuations we believe were attractive. Those were good businesses, and the prices we achieved reflect that.

Mark Layton: Those were good businesses. The prices we achieved reflect that. We think those outcomes are a direct signal of the value that exists inside this company. Value that, in our view, is not reflected in where the stock currently trades. We also exited 2 businesses that were not meeting our return standards. First, we sold our pressure pumping equipment, which lacked scale, was capital intensive, and increasingly challenged from a cycle and return standpoint. Second, we divested a sand mine that had become a drag on performance and didn't warrant continued investment based on logistical challenges with that particular mine and processing plant. Those were the right exits. We are a leaner, more focused company because of them. At the same time, 2025 was the year we initiated a meaningful expansion of our platform in aviation rentals.

Speaker #4: Those were the right exits. And we were a leaner, more focused company because of them. At the same time, 2025 was the year we initiated a meaningful expansion of our platform in aviation rentals.

Mark Layton: We deployed more than $65 million of capital with the goal of creating a more stable recurring revenue stream with strong cash flow characteristics. Aviation started the year with limited scale. It ended the year with real operating scale and a clear path to becoming a core earnings contributor as utilization ramps. Put simply, 2025 was a deliberate pivot. Exit assets without a clear path to sustainable returns and redeploy capital into areas where we see a better return profile. Now turning to Q4. Revenue was $9.5 million, compared to $10.9 million in Q3 2025 and $10 million in Q4 2024. A year-over-year decline of approximately 6%.

Speaker #4: Now turning to the fourth quarter. Revenue was $9.5 million, compared to $10.9 million in the third quarter of 2025. And $10 million in the fourth quarter, 2024.

Speaker #4: A year-over-year decline of approximately 6%. For the full year, revenue was $44.3 million, versus $45.6 million in 2024. Down approximately 3%. Which we view as a reasonable outcome given the amount of portfolio change we executed throughout the year.

Mark Layton: For the full year, revenue was $44.3 million versus $45.6 million in 2024, down approximately 3%, which we view as a reasonable outcome given the amount of portfolio change we executed throughout the year. Within the quarter, there were areas that performed well. Rentals, infrastructure, and accommodations all came in ahead of our internal revenue expectations. Aviation revenue continued its upward trajectory relative to continued deployment of aviation assets on lease. Infrastructure showed solid demand across grid and broadband-related project work. Accommodations continued to improve on both occupancy and cost efficiency. I want to be direct about where we fell short. EBITDA in Q4 was below our expectations and below our standard. This was not a demand problem. It was an execution and cost control issue, and we own it. We've already started taking action.

Speaker #4: We've already started taking action. In infrastructure, we made additional management changes within the fiber business to address the performance issues that surfaced during the quarter.

Mark Layton: In infrastructure, we made additional management changes within the fiber business to address the performance issues that surfaced during the quarter. Across the rest of the portfolio, we are making targeted investments to address cost structure and improve the conversion of revenue to EBITDA. Bernie will walk through the specifics by segment. With that, I'll turn the call over to Bernard Lancaster.

Bernard Lancaster: Thanks, Mark. Q4 was a mixed quarter operationally with some pockets of real strength, which we will build upon in 2026. In our rental segment, we continued to build on our aviation business with another full quarter of revenue contribution. We exited Q3 with approximately 15 aviation assets and added another 11 assets during Q4. A total of 16 of the 26 aviation assets were on lease at quarter end, and we expect the remaining assets to go on lease during the first half of 2026, subject to maintenance schedules and customer delivery timing. There is still meaningful runway here. Non-aviation rentals showed good top-line momentum. Assets on rent increased 15% sequentially to approximately 328 pieces. Profitability was pressured by higher equipment rental costs and insurance premiums.

Bernard Lancaster: Our non-aviation rentals have lost some of the advantages previously realized from economies of scale. As a result, we have identified additional opportunities to be more strategic with our customer and fleet mix in an effort to reduce overall coverage requirements and expect to work through this process as we move into 2026. Investing in the non-aviation rental business is a priority in 2026 as we see strong demand and a tightening equipment market. Turning to infrastructure. Revenue came in ahead of our expectations, which speaks to the demand environment across network hardening, broadband expansion, and data center-related work. EBITDA, however, was not acceptable. Execution challenges in our fiber operations drove significant cost overruns and margin compression. We've already acted and made top-down management changes within the fiber business and tightened project oversight to improve accountability, schedule discipline, and cost control.

Bernard Lancaster: These are meaningful changes. Our focus is on restoring consistent execution so the business can convert demand into profitable growth in 2026. Accommodations revenue was up, driven by a 25% increase in occupancy. This segment has been improving quarter after quarter, and the team deserves considerable credit for their consistent execution and excellent safety record. Sand and drilling were challenged in the quarter. In sand, pricing and volume pressure continued to significantly constrain the team's results. We are focused on positioning ourselves to obtain more consistent volumes while also reducing the lease expense burden from parts of our railcar fleet that are no longer needed. In drilling, Q4 2025 stepped down from a very strong Q3 performance as customer timing worked against our team.

Speaker #5: In drilling, fourth quarter 2025 stepped down from a very strong third quarter performance, as customer timing worked against our team. One of our priorities in 2026 is to invest back into our drilling business and improve performance through high-grading the asset base.

Bernard Lancaster: One of our priorities in 2026 is to invest back into our drilling business and improve performance through high-grading the asset base, where we see a clear path to better utilization and profitability. We believe that adding motor and MWD capacity to reduce rental expense and upgrading our power sections to improve customer marketability during the first half of the year will lead to material improvement in 2026. Overall, revenue performance in Q4 showed that demand is there in several parts of our portfolio. Our execution and cost management didn't meet our expectations. We're not making excuses, we're making changes, and I'm confident the actions underway will drive a better trajectory in 2026. Thank you to our employees for the hard work through a demanding quarter. With that, I'll hand it back to Mark.

Mark Layton: Thanks, Bernie. Let me walk through our segment results for Q4 2025, and then I'll cover consolidated results, balance sheet, and our outlook. Rental segment revenue was $3.3 million, up 19% sequentially and 179% year-over-year, mainly driven by the 23% sequential increase in aviation rentals in line with our commercial expectations. Non-aviation rental revenue increased 18% during the quarter, reflecting improved asset utilization. Our rental segment faced cost overruns driven by insurance costs and equipment rental expense due to equipment needed to support our operations and customer demands. Although stronger equipment utilization and favorable aviation rental mix helped offset some of these pressures, the sequential rise in operating costs reduced overall segment profitability. Infrastructure segment revenue was $1.2 million, up 44% sequentially and 231% year-over-year.

Management and oversight changes we have made are focused on ensuring revenue performance flows through to the bottom line going forward.

Mark Layton: Profitability was impacted by fiber execution issues, as Bernie described. Management and oversight changes we have made are focused on ensuring revenue performance flows through to the bottom line going forward. While we expect that there will be an EBITDA overhang on this business through the first half of 2026, we are encouraged by the early steps taken by the new leadership team. Accommodations revenue was $2.8 million, up 24% sequentially and up 19% year-over-year, reflecting higher occupancy. Sand segment revenue was $1.7 million, down 37% sequentially and down 67% year-over-year. Drilling segment revenue was $0.5 million, down 80% sequentially and down 38% year-over-year. Turning to consolidated results. For the Q4 of 2025, total revenue was $9.5 million, down 13% sequentially and 6% year-over-year.

Mark Layton: For the full year 2025, total revenue was $44.3 million compared to $45.6 million in 2024, a year-over-year decline of 3%. Net loss from continuing operations for Q4 was $12.3 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to $0.20 in Q4 of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was a loss of $6.8 million in Q4 of 2025, compared to a loss of $6 million in the prior year period. The underperformance relative to our plan was operationally driven. We are taking targeted actions across each segment to address it.

Speaker #6: The underperformance relative to our plan was operationally driven and we are taking targeted actions across each segment to address it. In our sand and drilling segments, cost of services decreased at a significantly lower rate than activity levels, resulting in margin compression driven by reduced utilization and lower fixed cost absorption during the winter slowdown typical in the oil and gas industry.

Mark Layton: In our sand and drilling segments, cost of services decreased at a significantly lower rate than activity levels, resulting in margin compression driven by reduced utilization and lower fixed cost absorption during the winter slowdown typical in the oil and gas industry. In the other segment, fully idled operations led to no revenue and only partial cost reductions, creating an unavoidable drag on profitability. SG&A expense during the quarter was $5.7 million, down from $6.9 million in Q4 2024, a reduction of approximately 17% year-over-year. On a fully normalized basis, excluding the bad debt expense related to PREPA in Q2 2024, SG&A declined approximately 22%.

Speaker #6: A reduction of approximately 17% year over year. On a fully normalized basis, excluding the bad debt expense related to PREPA in the second quarter of 2024, SG&A declined approximately 22%.

Mark Layton: We have more work to do on the cost structure as we continue to rightsize the company for the portfolio we have today. That remains a priority heading into 2026. Capital expenditures during the quarter were $25.9 million, nearly all directed toward aviation. 8 APUs, 2 engines, and 1 small aircraft were acquired during the quarter to bolster capacity and support future contracted deployment. For the full year, aviation accounted for the vast majority of our approximately $70 million in total 2025 CapEx, reflecting our conviction in the return profile and scalability of that platform. Very little capital was allocated to drilling, sand, accommodations, or infrastructure during the year. We expect that to change meaningfully in 2026 as we high grade assets, pursue equipment acquisitions that reduce costs, and invest in the operational improvements needed to drive profitability across those segments.

Mark Layton: We have more work to do on the cost structure as we continue to rightsize the company for the portfolio we have today. That remains a priority heading into 2026.

Mark Layton: At quarter end, we had $121.6 million of unrestricted cash equivalents, and marketable securities, and total liquidity of approximately $158.3 million, including our undrawn credit facility. Mammoth remains debt free. This gives us the flexibility to invest across the portfolio, pursue accretive opportunities, and absorb near-term volatility without any balance sheet pressure. Subsequent to quarter end, we closed the sale of a property in Ohio that previously supported our pressure pumping operations, generating net proceeds of $4.6 million. The asset was no longer in use following our exit from that business, and converting it to cash was the logical next step. We flag this because we think it is representative of a broader dynamic. There are assets on our balance sheet, some obvious, and some less so, that carry value not reflected in where the stock trades.

We will continue to identify and monetize positions where we are not generating an adequate return, and we expect to surface additional value through that process over time.

Mark Layton: We will continue to identify and monetize positions where we are not generating an adequate return, and we expect to surface additional value through that process over time. Entering 2026, we are constructive on the path ahead, seeing a path to greater than 50% revenue growth in 2026 versus 2025, primarily driven by two main things. Full year of aviation contribution at higher utilization and improved asset utilization across our oil and gas exposed businesses. To add some detail regarding our aviation portfolio, we nearly doubled the monthly revenue out of the portfolio from $0.6 million in December to $1 million in January. Once fully utilized, we believe this portfolio can generate monthly revenue of approximately $1.6 million per month.

Speaker #6: Once fully utilized, we believe this portfolio can generate monthly revenue of approximately $1.6 million per month. On capital allocation, we expect non-aviation CAPEX of approximately $11 million in 2026.

Mark Layton: On capital allocation, we expect non-aviation CapEx of approximately $11 million in 2026, a mix of maintenance and targeted growth investments across our oil and gas and infrastructure segments. To be direct, we have under-invested in these businesses for several years. That has been one of the contributors to the cost and performance issues. The investments are going into an existing asset base to address specific inefficiencies with identifiable paybacks. We expect the returns to be meaningful and relatively quick to materialize. On aviation, CapEx will remain opportunistic. As we have demonstrated, we are disciplined on entry point. We will continue to deploy capital there only where the economics are compelling. Taking all of this together, we expect 2026 to be a year of inflection for Mammoth. Revenue growth accelerating and positive EBITDA back within reach. We want to be clear on that last point.

Speaker #6: We want to be clear on that last point. The current asset base, operated better and supported by the right level of investment, is capable of delivering positive EBITDA.

Mark Layton: The current asset base operated better and supported by the right level of investment is capable of delivering positive EBITDA. From that foundation, our sights are set on mid-teens EBITDA margins and positive free cash flow as we move into 2027. The path is clear. The work is to execute against it. The macro backdrop in both areas is favorable. Oil and gas demand fundamentals are solid. Activity in our core basins is steady. We see specific investment opportunities we are actively evaluating. In aviation, leasing demand in the regional market is holding up, and we have capacity coming available as the fleet continues to ramp. Revenue growth is only part of the equation. The priority in 2026 is ensuring that growth converts into EBITDA and cash flow, and we are working to improve operational execution along with the deploying additional capital to help improve returns.
