Speaker #4: Thanks , Ryan . Good morning everybody . Our fourth quarter results cap in exceptional year in which we generated meaningful value for our shareholders .
Bond Clement: Thanks, Ryan. Good morning, everybody. Our Q4 results cap an exceptional year in which we generated meaningful value for our shareholders. As highlighted in yesterday's presentation on slide 7, we achieved several important milestones, including our highest quarterly revenue since 2017, driven in part by the largest quarterly contribution from ProFrac in the more than 4-year history of our supply agreement, and the first quarter in which our data analytics segment surpassed $10 million in revenue. The continued expansion of data analytics revenue is translating directly into enhanced profitability. As Ryan noted, in the Q4, DA accounted for 48% of total company gross profit, a significant increase from just 8% in the prior year period. Two really impressive metrics stand out, as highlighted on slide 11.

Speaker #4: The continued expansion of data analytics revenue is translating directly into enhanced profitability . As Ryan noted in the fourth quarter , Da accounted for 48% of total company gross profit , a significant increase from just 8% in the prior year period .
Speaker #4: Two really impressive metrics stand out , is highlighted on slide 11 . One . Our data analytics gross profit for 2025 totaled just over 18 million , which represents more than two times the growth versus last year's total data analytics revenues And second , the data analytics data analytics revenue during the fourth quarter exceeded Da revenue for the entire year of 2024 , both of these metrics highlight the exceptional growth that realized in 2025 from our Da segment Regarding total company revenues during the quarter , they were up 33% from the year ago quarter , and benefited from a 22 million , or approximately 80% increase in related party revenue as compared to the fourth quarter of last year .
Bond Clement: One, our data analytics gross profit for 2025 totaled just over $18 million, which represents more than two times the growth versus last year's total data analytics revenues. Second, the data analytics revenue during Q4 exceeded DA revenue for the entire year of 2024. Both of these metrics highlight the exceptional growth that we realized in 2025 from our DA segment. Regarding total company revenues during the quarter, they were up 33% from the year-ago quarter and benefited from a $22 million or approximately 80% increase in related party revenue as compared to Q4 of last year. Approximately $15 million of the ProFrac revenue increase was chemistry-related, while $6.7 million was associated with the PWRtek lease agreement.

Speaker #4: Approximately 15 million of the Pro revenue increase was chemistry related , while 6.7 million was associated with the Powertech lease agreement . External customer chemistry revenue declined 30% from the year ago quarter , due in large part to slowing activity levels in November and December However , external chemistry revenues were still up an outstanding 26% for the full year versus 2024 .
Bond Clement: External customer chemistry revenue declined 30% from the year ago quarter, due in large part to slowing activity levels in November and December. However, external chemistry revenues were still up an outstanding 26% for the full year versus 2024, despite the numerous headwinds in the upstream completion markets that Ryan touched upon earlier. Data analytics had another solid quarter with product revenue and service revenue up significantly from the year ago, driving the segment's highest quarterly and annual revenue ever. Data analytics segment revenue represented 15% of total company revenue in Q4, up from just 5% in the year ago quarter.

Speaker #4: Despite the numerous headwinds in the upstream completion markets that Ryan touched upon earlier , data analytics had another solid quarter with product revenue and service revenue up significantly from the year ago , driving the segment's highest quarterly and annual revenue ever .
Speaker #4: Data analytics segment revenue represented 15% of total company revenue in the fourth quarter , up from just 5% in the year ago quarter Powertech revenues totaled 15.8 million during 2025 , and as shown on slide 11 , since closing the Powertech acquisition in the second quarter , these assets have been a clear catalyst for margin and profitability expansion , driving improvements not only within the Da segment but also at the corporate level .
Bond Clement: PWRtek revenues totaled $15.8 million during 2025, and as shown on slide 11, since closing the PWRtek acquisition in Q2, these assets have been a clear catalyst for margin and profitability expansion, driving improvements not only within the DA segment, but also at the corporate level. As a reminder, based on the contractual terms of the lease agreement, PWRtek revenues in 2026 are expected to be north of $27 million or an approximate 70% increase from 2025. We continue to expect these assets to be a significant contributor to our 2026 results. Gross profit increased 24% and 52% respectively as compared to the year-ago quarter, and fiscal year.
Bond Clement: PWRtek revenues totaled $15.8 million during 2025, and as shown on slide 11, since closing the PWRtek acquisition in Q2, these assets have been a clear catalyst for margin and profitability expansion, driving improvements not only within the DA segment, but also at the corporate level.

Speaker #4: As a reminder , based on the contractual terms of the lease agreement , Powertech revenues in 2026 are expected to be north of 27 million , or an approximate 70% increase from 2025 .
Speaker #4: So we continue to expect these assets to be a significant contributor to our 2026 results . Gross profit increased 24% and 52% , respectively , as compared to the year ago quarter .
Speaker #4: In fiscal year , fourth quarter gross profit is a percentage of revenue totaled 22.5% and was impacted by a combination of product mix as well as the approximate 5 million sequential reduction related to the shortfall penalty , which is a byproduct of the huge quarter of revenue we achieved with Pro frac sG&A expenses increased compared to the fourth quarter of last year , primarily reflecting higher personnel costs , including stock compensation .
Bond Clement: Q4 gross profit as a percentage of revenue totaled 22.5% and was impacted by a combination of product mix as well as the approximate $5 million sequential reduction related to the shortfall penalty, which is a byproduct of the huge quarter of revenue we achieved with ProFrac. SG&A expenses increased compared to the Q4 of last year, primarily reflecting higher personnel costs, including stock compensation, as well as elevated professional fees, a portion of which relate to the company's first-time integrated audit requirements. Importantly, as revenue scaled, G&A declined to 11% of revenue from 13% in the prior-year quarter, demonstrating improving operating leverage and the efficiency of our cost structure as the business grows.

Importantly , as revenue scaled , G&A declined to 11% of revenue from 13% in the prior year quarter , demonstrating improving operating leverage and efficiency of our cost structure .
Speaker #4: As the business grows Net income for the quarter totaled 3 million , or $0.08 per diluted share , compared to 4.4 million , or $0.14 per diluted share , in the prior year quarter .
Bond Clement: Net income for the quarter totaled $3 million or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to $4.4 million or $0.14 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. It's worth pointing out that the current quarter net income and diluted earnings per share as compared to the year ago quarter were impacted by higher depreciation and interest costs, which are primarily related to the PWRtek acquisition, as well as higher effective tax rate driven by non-cash adjustments related to the company's valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The effective tax rate for Q4 was approximately 35% compared to 7% in the year ago period. We do expect the effective tax rate to normalize closer to 21% going forward, and we do not expect to pay cash taxes over the next few years other than minor amounts related to state income taxes.

We do expect the effective tax rate to normalize closer to 21% going forward , and we do not expect to pay cash taxes over the next few years other than minor amounts related to state income taxes Earnings per share for the 2025 periods as compared to the year ago periods , also included a higher share count .
Bond Clement: Earnings per share for the 2025 periods as compared to the year ago periods also included a higher share count as a result of the 6 million share warrant issued in connection with the PWRtek acquisition. Although the warrant has not been exercised, the shares have been included in both basic and diluted share counts since the acquisition closed in Q2. As noted in yesterday's release, as of the end of 2025, we elected to change our calculation of adjusted EBITDA to better align with the SEC's guidance on non-GAAP financial metrics. What this means is that for external reporting purposes, we will no longer add back non-cash amortization of contract assets to our adjusted EBITDA. All adjusted EBITDA references in the earnings release reflect the revised computational methodology.

Speaker #4: As noted in yesterday's release , as of the end of 2025 , we elected to change our calculation of adjusted EBITDA to better align with the SEC's guidance on non-GAAP financial metrics What this means is that for external reporting purposes , we will no longer add back non-cash amortization of contract assets to our adjusted EBITDA All adjusted EBITDA references in the earnings release reflect the revised computational methodology to compute adjusted EBITDA , consistent with our prior methodology for purposes of comparison to our original adjusted EBITDA guidance .
Bond Clement: To compute adjusted EBITDA consistent with our prior methodology for purposes of comparison to our original adjusted EBITDA guidance, simply add the non-cash amortization of contract assets as disclosed in the press release to the revised adjusted EBITDA balances shown. That math suggests that adjusted EBITDA for Q4 2025 under our previous methodology was approximately $10.1 million. Using the revised calculation, adjusted EBITDA was up 40% versus the year-ago quarter and grew 123% for the full year. Using either methodology, we were near the top end of the original or revised methodology guidance range on adjusted EBITDA. Wrapping up my comments, touching briefly on the balance sheet, we ended the year with $5.7 million in cash and $3.3 million drawn on our ABL.

Ryan Ezell: Yeah. Jeff, I'd be glad to provide a little bit of color on that because we're pretty excited about the advancements that we've made. I'll kind of refer back to some of the comments I made on our end-of-quarter call. At Q3, we set up our PWRtek advancement of our business development units around three major steps. One is proving the validation of the measurement, then moving to levels of various control and integration, and then therefore the final thing we do is full distribution and conditioning. I'm proud to say that we've moved into seven new customers successfully on the measurement side with executed POs and successful field trials. Now we are moving into longer-term duration contracts and looking at placing our new advanced NGS or smart skids as well as ESD.

Ryan Ezell: We have right now ongoing about six different operations in the field, and on top of our most recent announced win on the industrialized infrastructure component for utilities. It's going really well. We've also kind of brought forward what we're looking at on capital spend at building new pieces of equipment to go out to location. From that standpoint, I think, you know, we're still on track to hit that run rate of doubling the size of the fleet by the end of the year, if not, maybe a little bit sooner on those opportunities.
Ryan Ezell: We have right now ongoing about six different operations in the field, and on top of our most recent announced win on the industrialized infrastructure component for utilities.

Speaker #3: So it's going really , really well . We've also begun we've kind of brought forward what we're looking at on capital spend at building new pieces of equipment to go out to location .
Speaker #3: And so from that standpoint , I think , you know , we're still on track to hit that run rate of doubling the size of the fleet by the end of the year .
Speaker #3: If not , maybe a little bit sooner on those opportunities . And , and I think that , you know , I think the unique capabilities of our technology and some of these harsh conditions is opening up some unique pathways for us to hit some of these really stranded , you know , disaster relief power locations .
Ryan Ezell: I think that, you know, the unique capabilities of our technology in some of these harsh conditions is opening up some unique pathways for us to hit some of these really stranded, you know, disaster relief power locations. That's been an interesting opportunity for us to unlock here at Flotek.

That's been an interesting opportunity for us to unlock here at Flotek.
Speaker #3: And that's been it's been an interesting opportunity for us to unlock here at Tech .
Jeff Grampp: Great. I appreciate that. On a related question, what the business model or kind of contract approach, if you will, on this utility infrastructure deal, do you guys view that as kind of a one-off specific to this customer need? Or is that something you guys view as more repeatable for some of the other opportunities that, say, that you're discussing with customers?
Jeff Grampp: Great. I appreciate that. On a related question, what the business model or kind of contract approach, if you will, on this utility infrastructure deal, do you guys view that as kind of a one-off specific to this customer need? Or is that something you guys view as more repeatable for some of the other opportunities that, say, that you're discussing with customers?
Speaker #6: Great . I appreciate that . And on a related question , what the business model or kind of contract approach , if you will , on this utility infrastructure deal , do you guys view that as kind of a one off specific to this customer need , or is that something you guys view as more repeatable for some of the other opportunities that that you're discussing with customers ?
Ryan Ezell: No, I believe it's 100% repeatable, Jeff. I think that, you know, where our wheelhouse or strength is the monitoring, conditioning, and the setting up of the power generation equipment to be not only successful, but operate safely. The fact that we can do this in some of the harshest conditions on the planet, for field gas, no matter isolation or, you know, how we look at it with a field gas, is that this allows us to work with some of the larger suppliers of power to pull them through and jointly with what we do and work alongside of them and provide this power. I think there's gonna be a multitude of opportunities very similar to this.

Speaker #3: No , I believe it's 100% repeatable . Jeff . I think that , you know , where our wheelhouse is , strength is , is the , the monitoring , conditioning and the setting up of the power generation equipment to be not only successful , but operate safely .
Speaker #3: And the fact that we can do this as some of the harshest conditions on the planet for field gas , no matter isolation or , you know , how we look at it with field gas , is that this allows us to work with some of the larger suppliers of power to pull them through and jointly with what we do and work alongside of them .
Speaker #3: And provide this power. So I think there’s going to be a multitude of opportunities very similar to this, and we’re hoping that the development of working with some additional power providers opens up some additional opportunities for us inside the data center and some of the more established infrastructure components around AI.
Ryan Ezell: We're hoping that the development of working with some additional power providers opens up some additional opportunities for us inside the data center and some of the more established infrastructure components around AI. Right now, I would say that the horizon looks that direction. It's worked to our liking so far, and we hope to have some more exciting updates on that as it progresses throughout Q1.

Speaker #1: Thank you . Your next question is from Rob Brown from Lake Street Capital Markets . Your line is now open .
Rob Brown: Hi. Good morning. Congratulations on all the progress. On the power services contract or the PWRtek contract, could you kind of clarify how that contract works? I think you said an initial six-month term, and then options beyond that. I think you quoted kind of $1 million per megawatt. Just a sense of how that revenue flows and kind of the timing of how you expect that to flow in.
Rob Brown: Hi. Good morning. Congratulations on all the progress. On the power services contract or the PWRtek contract, could you kind of clarify how that contract works? I think you said an initial six-month term, and then options beyond that. I think you quoted kind of $1 million per megawatt. Just a sense of how that revenue flows and kind of the timing of how you expect that to flow in.
Speaker #7: Hi . Good morning . Congratulations on all the progress On on the power services contract with Powertech . Contract . Could you kind of clarify how that contract works ?
Speaker #7: I think you said an initial six month term and then and then options beyond that . And I think you quoted a kind of a million per per megawatt , but just a sense of how that revenue flows and kind of the timing of how you expect that to , to flow in
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. I'll tell you, we're gonna be probably providing some, you know, continuous updates on this. There's like a lot of these remote power gen processes. Kind of, we're looking at it a little bit on a conservative ramp. Our team has been on location all week. We are expecting to start to see this revenue probably in the starting parts to middle part of Q2, which would be initial mobilization and setup. The power will probably be split over two locations. One is providing power to the current community and its infrastructure, and some of the services there, in particular like the hospitals and things. Then there's a secondary location that will be powering additional housing that'll be built to recover from what was destroyed.
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. I'll tell you, we're gonna be probably providing some, you know, continuous updates on this. There's like a lot of these remote power gen processes. Kind of, we're looking at it a little bit on a conservative ramp. Our team has been on location all week.

Then there's a secondary location that will be powering additional housing that'll be built to recover from what was destroyed.
Speaker #3: Yeah . So I would tell you , we're going to be probably . Providing a , you know , continuous updates on this .
Speaker #3: There's like a lot of these remote power gen processes, kind of—we're looking at it a little bit on the conservative ramp.
Speaker #3: Our team has been on location all week . We are expecting to start to see this revenue probably in the in the starting parts to middle part of Q2 , which would be initial mobilization and set up .
Speaker #3: It'll probably the power will probably be split over two locations . One is providing power to a . The current community and it's infrastructure , as some of the services there , particularly like the hospitals and things .
Speaker #3: And then there's a secondary location that will be powering additional housing . That'll be built for to recover from what was destroyed . And so it'll kind of come in , I think two , two phases .
Ryan Ezell: It'll kind of come in, I think, two phases. I think for us, we expect some of that to start the mobilization pieces and all go here in Q2 and start to build throughout the year. It does appear that, on our initial onsets is that, I think this will have a high probability of progressing past the six months just for the sheer fact it'll take longer than that to build the temporary structures of houses. Plus, they're looking at a full installation of an additional power plant at the end. We're expecting this to get extended and be a good contract win for us.
Ryan Ezell: It'll kind of come in, I think, two phases. I think for us, we expect some of that to start the mobilization pieces and all go here in Q2 and start to build throughout the year. It does appear that, on our initial onsets is that, I think this will have a high probability of progressing past the six months just for the sheer fact it'll take longer than that to build the temporary structures of houses. Plus, they're looking at a full installation of an additional power plant at the end. We're expecting this to get extended and be a good contract win for us.
Speaker #3: But I think for us , we expect most some of that to start the mobilization pieces . And I'll go here in Q two and start to build throughout the year .
Speaker #3: It does appear that on our initial onsets is that I think this will have a high probability of progressing past the six month , just for the sheer fact it'll take longer than that to build the temporary structures of houses .
Speaker #3: Plus, they're looking at a full installation of an additional power plant at the end. So we're expecting this to get extended and be a good contract win for us.
Ryan Ezell: The unique model is that we were initially approached because of our unique capabilities in terms of conditioning any types or variable types of gas so that they could provide safe fuel source for operational gen sets. I think that allowed us to help go out and work with finding these power providers to bring and pull it through. I think we'll see some similar model opportunities in these kind of disaster relief components. I don't know how much that model works when we look at data centers because usually those are the big megawatt type installations. For these remote areas, it's a favorable business model for us to help work with the power providers on doing that. The other side, we'd just be on the pure conditioning aspect.

Rob Brown: Okay. Got it. Just to clarify, I think you said the PWRtek contract that you had was $27 million in revenue. Did that include some of this new award, or would the new award be incremental to that?
Rob Brown: Okay. Got it. Just to clarify, I think you said the PWRtek contract that you had was $27 million in revenue. Did that include some of this new award, or would the new award be incremental to that?
Speaker #7: Okay , okay . Got it . And then just just to clarify , I think you said the Powertech contract that you had was was 27 million in revenue .
Speaker #7: Did that include some of this ? Some of this new award , or would that be the new award ? Be incremental to that ?
Ryan Ezell: Yeah, the new award is incremental. That is just the original work that we have on a dry lease program for 5 years, 27 annual on those, plus an extension in year 6 at a market rate. The new industrial, or I should say utility services contract is completely add on top of that.
Ryan Ezell: Yeah, the new award is incremental. That is just the original work that we have on a dry lease program for 5 years, 27 annual on those, plus an extension in year 6 at a market rate. The new industrial, or I should say utility services contract is completely add on top of that.
Speaker #3: Yeah , the new award is incremental . That is the just the original work that we have on a , a dry lease program for five years .
Speaker #3: 27 annual on those plus an extension in year six at a market rate . The new industrial or I should I say utility services contract is a completely add on top of that

Ryan Ezell: Hey, Gerry, how are you?
Ryan Ezell: Hey, Gerry, how are you?
Speaker #3: Hey , Jerry , how are you ?
Gerry Sweeney: I'm doing well, thanks. I wanted to touch upon an area that I think you mentioned in your prepared remarks, just your systems can communicate directly with the engines, and that I think it offers a unique ability to improve engine flow, efficiency, life of the engine. I think you're working with some important engine and turbine manufacturers. Can you go into a little bit more detail of what's happening on that front and how that opportunity could emerge a little bit further in 2026 and 2027?

Speaker #8: And I think it offers a unique ability to improve engine flow efficiency . Life of the engine . Can you and I think you're working with some important engine and turbine manufacturers .
Speaker #8: Can you go into a little bit more detail of what's happening on that front? And how that opportunity could emerge a little bit further in '26 and '27?
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. You know, Jerry, this is a really kind of exciting platform for us when we look at applications inside of PWRtek. Without, you know, dropping any specific names, but I will say the majority of the OEMs that we're working with are the nameplate companies that you see on the majority of these power gen sites, particularly on the reciprocating engine side. Essentially what we have is whether you're using a Verax or an XSPCT unit, is that because most of these engines like to see a gas quality measurement once a day or once every few days just to see that if they're in an operating realm where they set points for potential adjustment, our capabilities allow data to be fed directly to the OEM engine every 5 seconds.
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. You know, Jerry, this is a really kind of exciting platform for us when we look at applications inside of PWRtek. Without, you know, dropping any specific names, but I will say the majority of the OEMs that we're working with are the nameplate companies that you see on the majority of these power gen sites, particularly on the reciprocating engine side.

Speaker #3: Yeah . You know , Jerry , this is a really kind of exciting platform for us . When we look at applications inside of Powertech without , you know , dropping any , you know , specific names .
Speaker #3: But I will say the majority of the OEMs that we're working with are the nameplate companies that you see on the majority of these , these power , Jennifer's Jen sites , particularly on the reciprocating engine side .
Speaker #3: But essentially what we have is whether you're using a verax or an expect unit , is that because these engines like to see a gas quality measurement once a day or once every few days , just to see that if they're in an operating realm where they set set points for potential adjustment , our capabilities allow data to be fed directly to the OEM engine .
Speaker #3: Every five seconds . And so this allows a closing in of set points , operational efficiency to where they really get tuned and dialed in to the best operational performance parameters .
Ryan Ezell: This allows a closing in of set points, operational efficiency to where they really get tuned and dialed in to the best operational parameters to not only improve fuel efficiency and emission standards, but also reduce R&M costs for the engines. For us, you know, there's potential for one unit to feed multiple engines, or we reduce it down to a simplified version of our XSPCT units per engine. These projects have been solely focused on engine optimization and improving their overall performance. You know, we will still be able to independently run our gas conditioning upstream, you know, up from that to where we condition the gas prior to coming to the engine. Technically, it's a separate revenue stream.

Speaker #3: And not only improve fuel efficiency and emission standards , but also reduce R&D costs for the engines . And so for us , you know , there's there's potential to for one unit to feed multiple engines or we reduce it down to a simplified version of our Zetec units per engine .
Speaker #3: And so this , these projects have been solely focused on engine optimization and improving the overall performance . And it doesn't even , you know , we will still be able to independently run our gas conditioning upstream .
Speaker #3: You know , up from that to where we condition the gas prior to coming to the engine . So we technically it's a , it's a separate revenue stream .
Ryan Ezell: We've got projects with four different OEMs on that at various levels. The longest standing one has been in the works in research for about 18 months, and it's progressed pretty far down the road into advanced field trials. We're hoping to have a little bit more clarity on what a potential long-term relationship looks like there and what that may come like here in 2026. We referenced some of these in a recent social media post with some of the success of the testing here at Flotek. We're excited about that.

Speaker #3: We referenced some of these in a recent social media post with some success of the testing here at Flow Tech . So we're excited about that .
Ryan Ezell: I do believe those will start to be monetized here, probably by mid-year, if not the back half of the year as a potential addition on to a lot of these reciprocating engine operations.
Ryan Ezell: I do believe those will start to be monetized here, probably by mid-year, if not the back half of the year as a potential addition on to a lot of these reciprocating engine operations.
Speaker #3: And I do believe those will start to be monetized here, probably by mid-year, if not the back half of the year, as a potential addition onto a lot of these reciprocating engine operations.
Gerry Sweeney: Is this a little bit different approach? I mean, you know, the power side, obviously, you know, you have data centers, fuel gas for frack fleets, et cetera. But this almost sounds as though this is purely, and I think the ones I just mentioned were protect the engine, different quality gas. This is more pure efficiency opportunities for the engines and improves-

Gerry Sweeney: And-
Ryan Ezell: Yeah.
Ryan Ezell: Yeah.
Gerry Sweeney: Yeah. Go ahead. Sorry.
Gerry Sweeney: Yeah. Go ahead. Sorry.
Ryan Ezell: You're 100% correct. The value proposition is there. There's what the NGS, ESDs, and NGSD do on the broad variety of conditioning, you know, horrible gas into much better operational parameters. There's what these individual units do per engine in optimizing timing, firing sequence, fuel mixture, and everything to work them at their optimum rate to, you know, minimize derating or different components there. Also, you know, helps them in terms of the potential to reduce R&M maintenance throughout the year.

Speaker #3: Yeah , you're 100% correct . The value proposition is there's what the NGS , SD and NGS d do on the broad variety of conditioning projects .

And then there's what these individual units do per engine and optimizing timing , firing sequence , fuel mixture and everything to work them at their optimum rate , to , you know , minimize de-rating or different components .
Speaker #3: There . And then also , you know , help them on terms of the potential to reduce our R&D maintenance throughout the year .
Gerry Sweeney: Got it. Switching gears, you're starting to highlight opportunities that you have in the field or deployments. At some point, would you be able to break out or tell us how many data analytic units you have in the field for tracking purposes, or would this ever occur, or is that asking too much? It could be asking too much.
Gerry Sweeney: Got it. Switching gears, you're starting to highlight opportunities that you have in the field or deployments.

Ryan Ezell: I think, Gerry, I think it's our intent, you know, we're gonna get probably where we are at the end of Q1, we're gonna come back with where we are updated on the total number of. When I look at PWRtek, I would say the number of types of skids that we have out and operating, and then also combined with where we're doing measurements to improve distribution and PRV, pressure reduction valve units, et cetera. And we'll start talking a little bit more about these growth numbers. What I would say is that, you know, if you look at what our initial contract we had with the original PWRtek assets, we're progressing nicely to get to that doubling of the fleet in 2025.
Ryan Ezell: I think, Gerry, I think it's our intent, you know, we're gonna get probably where we are at the end of Q1, we're gonna come back with where we are updated on the total number of.

What I would say is that, you know, if you look at what our initial contract we had with the original PWRtek assets, we're progressing nicely to get to that doubling of the fleet in 2025.
Speaker #3: I think here in I think it's our intent , you know , we're going to get it probably where we are at the end of end of Q1 .
Speaker #3: We're going to come back with where we are updated on the total number of . When I look at power techs , I would say the number of types of skids that we have out in operating .
Speaker #3: And then also combined with where we're doing measurements to improve distribution and PV pressure reduction , valve units , etc. . And we'll start talking a little bit more about these growth numbers .
Speaker #3: But what I would say is , is that , you know , if you look at what our initial contract we had with the original power tech assets , we're progressing nicely to get to that doubling of the fleet .
Ryan Ezell: We'll probably, as we start to initiate our guidance like we traditionally do at the end of Q1, we'll give an update on where that stands, so it'll help you align the guidance on there.
Ryan Ezell: We'll probably, as we start to initiate our guidance like we traditionally do at the end of Q1, we'll give an update on where that stands, so it'll help you align the guidance on there.
Speaker #3: And 25 . But we'll probably as we start to initiate our guidance like we traditionally do at the end of Q1 , we'll give an update on where that stands .
Speaker #3: So it'll help you align the guidance on there .

Operator: Thank you. Your next question is from Don Crist from Johnson Rice. Your line is now open.
Speaker #1: Thank you . Your next question is from Donald Crist from Johnson Rice . Your line is now open .
Donald Crist: Morning, guys. Ryan, on that last point of the PWRtek units, just to be clear, I believe you bought 22 or so from ProFrac, but then they were delivering another 8, so the doubling would be off that 30 number, right?
Donald Crist: Morning, guys. Ryan, on that last point of the PWRtek units, just to be clear, I believe you bought 22 or so from ProFrac, but then they were delivering another 8, so the doubling would be off that 30 number, right?
Speaker #9: Morning , guys . Ryan , on that last point of the Powertech units , just to be clear , I believe you bought 22 or so from Pro .
Speaker #9: But then they were delivered another eight. So the doubling would be off that 30 number, right?
Ryan Ezell: Yes. We actually had all 30 units by, I wanna say November timeframe of Q4 is when we had taken them all in. The number we are talking about, Don, is. We have 30 individual units that make up what we call 15 pairs of operating assets, and our goal is to double that number based on the 30 or 15 pairs.
Ryan Ezell: Yes. We actually had all 30 units by, I wanna say November timeframe of Q4 is when we had taken them all in. The number we are talking about, Don, is. We have 30 individual units that make up what we call 15 pairs of operating assets, and our goal is to double that number based on the 30 or 15 pairs.
Speaker #3: Yes . We we we actually received we had all 30 units by say November time frame of Q4 is when we taken them all in .
Speaker #3: So the number we are talking about , Don , is so we have 30 individual units that make up what we call 15 pairs of operating assets .
Speaker #3: And our goal is to double that number based on the 30 or 15 pairs .
Donald Crist: Okay. Yeah. Just to be clear.
Donald Crist: Okay. Yeah. Just to be clear.
Ryan Ezell: Yeah.
Ryan Ezell: Yeah.
Donald Crist: I wanted to touch more broadly on just the construction of whether it be custody transfer units or skids or the carts that you put out for the flares, just how is all that going? I guess one for Bond, in addition to that, is how do we look at CapEx for this year? I'm guessing it won't be that big, but just any kind of rough parameters would be helpful.

Speaker #9: And I guess one for bond , in addition to that is how do we look at CapEx for this year ? I'm guessing it won't be that big , but just any kind of rough parameters would be helpful .
Ryan Ezell: Well, I would tell you what I would say in terms of lead times here is that the absorption of XSPCT units and our newer technology that we call the 2C unit, which is a dual channel Verax, have been well-received post the GPA 2172 passing of the standard. We've seen great progress. We sold out of the 2C units by February, and so we've advanced capital builds on a multitude of those as well as XSPCT units. We've advanced capital to those to start really because we're seeing some strong deployments where traditionally, Don, when we first had acquired or brought the data analytics division in, we were selling these things 1 to 2 at a time. We're now starting to receive POs of double-digit numbers at a time.
Ryan Ezell: Well, I would tell you what I would say in terms of lead times here is that the absorption of XSPCT units and our newer technology that we call the 2C unit, which is a dual channel Verax, have been well-received post the GPA 2172 passing of the standard.

We've advanced capital to those to start really because we're seeing some strong deployments where traditionally, Don, when we first had acquired or brought the data analytics division in, we were selling these things 1 to 2 at a time. We're now starting to receive POs of double-digit numbers at a time.
Speaker #3: Well , I would tell you what I was saying in terms of lead times here is that we the absorption of X spec units and our newer technology that we call the Too-c unit , which is a dual channel Vorax , have been well received post the GPA 2172 passing of the standard .
Speaker #3: We've seen great progress. We sold out of the Too-C units by February, and so we... We've advanced capital builds on a multitude of those, as well as expect units.
Speaker #3: And we've advanced capital to those to start really because we're seeing some strong deployments where traditionally done in our . When we first had acquired or brought the data analytics division in , we were selling these things 1 to 2 off at a time .
Speaker #3: We're now starting to receive POS of double digit numbers at a time , and some of the unique things about the way our operating system works , some of the advancements we've made in the software really helps to integrate these units and show day to day , you know , within the hour value creation of those .
Ryan Ezell: Some of the unique things about the way our operating with system Verax works, some of the advancements we made in the software really helps to integrate these units and show day-to-day, you know, within the hour value creation of those. We're seeing significant adoption and absorption of those. I wouldn't say we're at a supply constraint yet, but what we are doing is we're making aggressive steps to rapidly expand that ahead of what we were thinking by this time in the year. We're allocating capital at Bond. I'll let you kind of comment on that.
Ryan Ezell: Some of the unique things about the way our operating with system Verax works, some of the advancements we made in the software really helps to integrate these units and show day-to-day, you know, within the hour value creation of those.

We're allocating capital at Bond. I'll let you kind of comment on that.
Speaker #3: And so we're seeing significant adoption and absorption of those . And so I wouldn't say we're at a , we're at a supply constraint yet , but what we are doing is we're making aggressive steps to rapidly expand that ahead of what we were thinking by this time in the year .
Bond Clement: Yeah. Don, I mean, certainly I think 2026 is gonna be the largest year of CapEx we've had in quite a long time. I think our CapEx in 2025 was somewhere around $2 million. You know, just rough numbers, we would expect CapEx for 2026 to be somewhere between $10 and $15 million. Obviously from a funding perspective, we've got the OSP and then, as it relates to equipment financing, we're evaluating options there as well.
Bond Clement: Yeah. Don, I mean, certainly I think 2026 is gonna be the largest year of CapEx we've had in quite a long time. I think our CapEx in 2025 was somewhere around $2 million. You know, just rough numbers, we would expect CapEx for 2026 to be somewhere between $10 and $15 million. Obviously from a funding perspective, we've got the OSP and then, as it relates to equipment financing, we're evaluating options there as well.
Speaker #3: And so we're allocating capital and bond . I'll let you kind of comment on that .
Speaker #4: Yeah , Don , I mean certainly I think 26 is going to be the largest year of CapEx we've had in quite a long time .
Speaker #4: I think our CapEx in 2025 is somewhere around 2 million bucks . You know , just rough numbers . We would expect CapEx for 2026 to be somewhere between 10 and $15 million .
Speaker #4: Obviously , from a funding perspective , we've got the OSP and then as it relates to equipment financing , we're evaluating options there as well .
Donald Crist: Right. That OSP should more than double cover that $10 to 15 million that you have to put out, right? That should all come in Q1.
Donald Crist: Right. That OSP should more than double cover that $10 to 15 million that you have to put out, right? That should all come in Q1.
Speaker #9: Right . And that OSP should more than double cover that that 10 to 15 million that you have to put out . Right .
Bond Clement: Well, it won't double it. The OSP, because remember, we had a $7 million offset related to the PWRtek transaction, which was effectively deferred consideration. When you look at what the net OSP is at the end of the year, it's right at $20 million. It surely goes a long way and satisfies, from a cash equipment perspective.
Bond Clement: Well, it won't double it. The OSP, because remember, we had a $7 million offset related to the PWRtek transaction, which was effectively deferred consideration. When you look at what the net OSP is at the end of the year, it's right at $20 million. It surely goes a long way and satisfies, from a cash equipment perspective.
Speaker #9: And that should all come in the first quarter .
Speaker #4: Well, it won't double it. The OSP, because remember we had a $7 million offset related to the Powertech transaction, which was effectively deferred consideration.
Speaker #4: So when you look at what the net OSP is at the end of the year , it's right at $20 million . But it surely goes a long way in satisfies from a cash or equipment perspective .
Donald Crist: Right. You'll have cash flow through the year as well. Not a big deal there. Ryan, I did wanna ask, you know, obviously there's a lot of impact in the Middle East right now, from what's going on with the hostilities. You know, you spent a lot of time over there, and y'all sell a lot of chemicals into there. Just an update on how much product you have on the ground and the options of moving shipments, you know, rather than going through the strait to other ports, maybe Egypt or something like that, and then shipping them in. Any kind of thoughts around that?
Donald Crist: Right. You'll have cash flow through the year as well. Not a big deal there. Ryan, I did wanna ask, you know, obviously there's a lot of impact in the Middle East right now, from what's going on with the hostilities. You know, you spent a lot of time over there, and y'all sell a lot of chemicals into there. Just an update on how much product you have on the ground and the options of moving shipments, you know, rather than going through the strait to other ports, maybe Egypt or something like that, and then shipping them in. Any kind of thoughts around that?
Speaker #9: Right ? And you'll have . Cash flow through the year as well . So not a big deal . There . And Ryan , I did want to ask , you know , obviously there's a lot of impact in the Middle East right now from what's going on with the hostilities .
Speaker #9: But you know , you spent a lot of time over there and you'll sell a lot of chemicals into there . But just an update on on how much product you have on the ground and , and the options of , of moving shipments , you know , rather than going through the straight to other ports , maybe Egypt or something like that , and then shipping them in any kind of thoughts around that .
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. What I'll say is I kind of stage these in pieces. Number one, the current operations have been going very well. We've had our operations teams on the ground, and we've picked up, you know, some of that unconventional work that we had been speaking of, particularly in the Kingdom. It's picked up and running very well, probably to the upper end of our expectations. We're seeing solid growth there.
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. What I'll say is I kind of stage these in pieces. Number one, the current operations have been going very well. We've had our operations teams on the ground, and we've picked up, you know, some of that unconventional work that we had been speaking of, particularly in the Kingdom. It's picked up and running very well, probably to the upper end of our expectations. We're seeing solid growth there.
Speaker #3: Yeah . So what I was saying is , I , I kind of stages in pieces . So number one , the current operations have been going very well .
Speaker #3: We've had our operations teams on the ground and we've picked up , you know , some of that unconventional work that we've been speaking of , particularly in the Kingdom , it's picked up and running very well , probably to the upper end of our expectations .
Ryan Ezell: Just as we're starting to see that, as you can imagine, the supply constraints is in all the traditional sailing vessel methods that we would deliver, whether it coming from inside the GCC and/or us bringing other chemicals in, some of our specialty stuff, have been a bit strained, as of late, particularly, due to the Strait of Hormuz pressure, et cetera. We are identifying alternative pathways that will probably, in the near term, have a little bit of additional cost, Don, 'cause they have to be touched twice. Again, our goal is to be a solid working partner for our customers there, and we've been kind of ahead of this, by about a, you know, technically probably a month or two because we were concerned that this might happen.
Ryan Ezell: Just as we're starting to see that, as you can imagine, the supply constraints is in all the traditional sailing vessel methods that we would deliver, whether it coming from inside the GCC and/or us bringing other chemicals in, some of our specialty stuff, have been a bit strained, as of late, particularly, due to the Strait of Hormuz pressure, et cetera.

Again, our goal is to be a solid working partner for our customers there, and we've been kind of ahead of this, by about a, you know, technically probably a month or two because we were concerned that this might happen.
Speaker #3: And we're seeing solid growth there . And just as we're starting to see that , we're starting to see , as you can imagine , the supply constraints , as in all the sailing vessel methods would deliver , whether it's coming from inside the GCC and or us bringing other chemicals in some of our specialty stuff have been a bit strained as of late , particularly due to the Straits of Hormuz , pressure , etc.
Speaker #3: we are identifying alternative pathways that will probably , in the near term , have a little bit of additional cost down because they have to be touched twice , but again , our goal is to be as solid working partner for our customers .
Ryan Ezell: I do think right now our supply is relatively stable at this point. There's no doubt that we're gonna be all hands on deck, and we're gonna utilize the multi years of experience that we have in a global supply chain and, you know, our expertise of being on the ground there and from the past to understand about how we get there and level out. I do think we're definitely using an alternative delivery method than the traditional sailing routes that we were doing, which will probably include, you know, cross-country trucking methodology. We've done this before, Don, on some of the initial move out of there. We had some issues around COVID when we first sent chemicals in, so we're familiar with this alternative pathway.
Speaker #3: There , and we've been kind of ahead of this by about a , you know , technically probably a month or two because we were concerned that this might happen .
Ryan Ezell: I do think right now our supply is relatively stable at this point. There's no doubt that we're gonna be all hands on deck, and we're gonna utilize the multi years of experience that we have in a global supply chain and, you know, our expertise of being on the ground there and from the past to understand about how we get there and level out.

We've done this before, Don, on some of the initial move out of there. We had some issues around COVID when we first sent chemicals in, so we're familiar with this alternative pathway.
Speaker #3: But I do think right now our supplies relatively stable at this point , but there's no doubt that we're going to be all hands on deck and we're going to utilize the multi years of experience that we have in global supply chain .
Speaker #3: And you know, our expertise of being on the ground there, and from the past, to understand about how we get there and level it out.
Speaker #3: But I do think we're going to have to use an all . We're definitely using an alternative delivery method than the traditional sailing routes that we were doing , which will probably include a trans , you know , cross country trucking methodology .
Ryan Ezell: It's just not the best on the margin profile. We'll make it work in the near term and make sure that we stay growing with that revenue opportunity.
Ryan Ezell: It's just not the best on the margin profile. We'll make it work in the near term and make sure that we stay growing with that revenue opportunity.
Speaker #3: We've done this before , dawn on some the initial mob out of there , we had some some issues around Covid when we first sent chemicals in .
Speaker #3: So we're familiar with this alternative pathway . It's just not the , the best on the margin profile . But , but we'll , we'll make it work in the near term to make sure that we , we stay growing with that revenue opportunity .
Donald Crist: Okay. Just to be clear, I mean, other than some excess shipping costs, activity is basically unchanged right now, right? Things are still moving.
Donald Crist: Okay. Just to be clear, I mean, other than some excess shipping costs, activity is basically unchanged right now, right? Things are still moving.
Speaker #9: Okay . But just to be clear , I mean , other than some , some excess shipping costs . Activities basically on , on changed right now , right ?
Ryan Ezell: We haven't seen much disruption in KSA. We have seen a few things that we were doing on the data analytics side. Some measurement installs in UAE and a few of those get pushed back a few weeks just because of the location and different pieces. But right now, you know, we're having calls. Leon and the team are having calls basically every morning, and we're steadily running in KSA right now because the majority of the Jafurah field is used locally for energy inside the country. It'll keep running pretty steady. Our bigger customers there, I say it's business as usual, all things considered, with the instability, you know, to their neighboring countries, but they are full speed ahead right now.
Ryan Ezell: We haven't seen much disruption in KSA. We have seen a few things that we were doing on the data analytics side. Some measurement installs in UAE and a few of those get pushed back a few weeks just because of the location and different pieces. But right now, you know, we're having calls.

Speaker #9: We have .
Speaker #3: We haven't seen much . Yeah . We haven't seen much disruption in KSA . We have seen a few things that we were doing on the data analytics side .
Speaker #3: Some measurement installs in UAE and a few of those get pushed back a few weeks just because of the location and different pieces .
Speaker #3: But right now , you know , we're having calls , Leon and the team are having calls basically every morning . And we're steadily running in KSA right now because the majority of this field is used locally for energy inside the country .
Speaker #3: And so it'll , it'll , it'll keep running pretty , pretty steady . And , and our bigger customers , they're like I say , it's business as usual .
Bond Clement: I'll just say those, you know, we'll caveat that a little bit. That's based upon what we know today, Don.
Bond Clement: I'll just say those, you know, we'll caveat that a little bit. That's based upon what we know today, Don.
Speaker #3: All things considered , with the instability , you know , to their neighboring countries . But they are full speed ahead right now .
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. I mean, it could change tonight, right?
Ryan Ezell: Yeah. I mean, it could change tonight, right?
Bond Clement: It could change if this thing expands or extends.
Bond Clement: It could change if this thing expands or extends.
Speaker #4: And I'll just say those , you know , we'll caveat that a little bit . That's based upon what we know today .
Donald Crist: Right. Yeah, I get it. Yeah, that's what I'm hearing too, is it's pretty much business as usual unless you're really on the coast, right? That's about it. I appreciate the color, guys. I'll turn it back.
Donald Crist: Right. Yeah, I get it. Yeah, that's what I'm hearing too, is it's pretty much business as usual unless you're really on the coast, right? That's about it. I appreciate the color, guys. I'll turn it back.
Speaker #3: Yeah, I mean, it could change tonight.
Speaker #4: If this thing expands or or extends , right .
Speaker #9: Yeah , I get it . But yeah , that's , that's what I'm hearing too , is it's pretty much business as usual unless you're really on the coast .
Bond Clement: All right, man.
Bond Clement: All right, man.
Operator: Thank you. Your next question is from Josh Jayne from Daniel Energy Partners. Your line is now open.
Operator: Thank you. Your next question is from Josh Jayne from Daniel Energy Partners. Your line is now open.
Speaker #9: Right . And that's about it . So I appreciate the color guys . I'll turn it back .
Speaker #4: All right , ma'am
Josh Jayne: Good morning. Thanks for taking my questions. First one is just on the chemistry side. Obviously, commodity prices are volatile, but wherever oil settles out over the next few weeks, hopefully in the next few weeks, any thoughts on how operators are ultimately likely going to handle sort of a higher commodity price deck than they were thinking coming into this year? I know you haven't given guidance yet for the rest of the year, but I think the world was thinking sort of flattish CapEx, and that's what these guys have announced. Maybe just any insight. Are you seeing more demand for chemistry heading into you know, the back half of this year in 2026 than you might have been thinking you know, 3 to 6 months ago? Maybe just some thoughts there.

Speaker #10: Good morning . Thanks for taking my questions . First one is just on the chemistry side . Obviously , commodity prices are volatile , but wherever oil settles out over the next few weeks , hopefully in the next few weeks .
Speaker #10: Any thoughts on how operators are ultimately likely going to handle sort of a higher commodity price deck than they were thinking coming into this year ?
Speaker #10: I know you you haven't given guidance yet for the rest of the year , but I think the world was thinking sort of flattish CapEx , and that's what these guys have announced .
Speaker #10: But maybe just any insight ? Are you seeing more demand for chemistry heading into , you know , the back half of this year , in 26 , then you might have been thinking 3 to 6 months ago , maybe just some thoughts there .
Ryan Ezell: You know, Josh, that is a great question, and probably as in-depth as I could maybe look into a hazy crystal ball, right? Let me talk about things that I do see in the industry is. You know, I've talked about them a little bit in terms of when you look globally around, we still see the potential for demand to increase in that medium to long term, if not a little bit sooner. You see that supply rebalance. What we are seeing is that there is definitely a reduction in this and where there isn't a decline curve contribution because you have such a large percentage of unconventionals contributing to that stack.
Ryan Ezell: You know, Josh, that is a great question, and probably as in-depth as I could maybe look into a hazy crystal ball, right? Let me talk about things that I do see in the industry is. You know, I've talked about them a little bit in terms of when you look globally around, we still see the potential for demand to increase in that medium to long term, if not a little bit sooner. You see that supply rebalance. What we are seeing is that there is definitely a reduction in this and where there isn't a decline curve contribution because you have such a large percentage of unconventionals contributing to that stack.
Speaker #3: You know , Josh , that's a that is a great question and probably is as in-depth as I can maybe look it to the hazy crystal ball .
Speaker #3: Right . But let me talk about things that I do see in the industry is , you know , I talked about them a little bit in terms of when you look globally around , you're going to see we still see the potential for demand to increase in that medium to long term .
Speaker #3: If not , if not a little bit sooner . And you see that supply rebalance , but what we are seeing is that there is definitely a reduction in this and where there isn't a decline curve contribution , because you have such a large percentage of unconventionals contributing to that stack .
Ryan Ezell: You're also seeing a little bit of decline in reservoir quality, which would tell me what they're focused on is getting the most out of what work they are doing, which means leaning in towards advanced technology, efficiency-creating technologies or stuff that improves overall performance. All those things play into the wheelhouse of what we do well by providing real-time data measurements, making choices based on that in our prescriptive engineering process with our PCM business. All those things work really well for what we wanna do. Not only that, when you look at product margin basis, they typically run at a little bit better margin for us, throughout the cycle piece in that.
Ryan Ezell: You're also seeing a little bit of decline in reservoir quality, which would tell me what they're focused on is getting the most out of what work they are doing, which means leaning in towards advanced technology, efficiency-creating technologies or stuff that improves overall performance.

All those things work really well for what we wanna do. Not only that, when you look at product margin basis, they typically run at a little bit better margin for us, throughout the cycle piece in that.
Speaker #3: And so, and you're also seeing a little bit of decline in reservoir quality, which would tell me what they're focused on is getting the most out of what work they are doing, which means leaning in towards advanced technology, efficiency, creating technologies or stuff that improves overall performance.
Speaker #3: All those things lay into the wheelhouse of what we do well by providing real time data measurements , making choices better for that and our prescriptive engineering process with our PCM business .
Speaker #3: So all those things work really well for what we want to do . And not only that , when you look at product margin basis , they typically run at a little bit better margin for us throughout throughout the cycle piece .
Ryan Ezell: I think the interesting part is there's no doubt when you look at the products that we sold in Q4 of this year, we saw the frac fleet get to the lowest that it was since probably Q2 2021 coming out of COVID. We saw commodity prices around the same thing, but our revenue was eight times more than it was then, and we made significantly better gross profit. We've shown that resiliency through the cycle. What I believe is we're gonna continue in this near term to see a little bit of softness in the demand for the chemistry parts.
Ryan Ezell: I think the interesting part is there's no doubt when you look at the products that we sold in Q4 of this year, we saw the frac fleet get to the lowest that it was since probably Q2 2021 coming out of COVID. We saw commodity prices around the same thing, but our revenue was eight times more than it was then, and we made significantly better gross profit. We've shown that resiliency through the cycle. What I believe is we're gonna continue in this near term to see a little bit of softness in the demand for the chemistry parts.
Speaker #3: And that, I think, the interesting part is, there's no doubt when you look at the products that we sold, and in Q4 of this year, we saw the frac fleet get to the lowest that it was since probably Q2 '21, coming out of Covid.
Speaker #3: We saw commodity prices around the same thing , but our revenue was eight times more than it was then . And we made significantly better gross profit .
Speaker #3: And so we've shown that resiliency through the cycle . And what I believe is we're going to continue in this near term to see a little bit of softness in the demand for for the for the chemistry parts .
Ryan Ezell: I think we see that upside potential maybe in the back half of the year to start to answer some of the call here, and I think that'll require some of the advanced technologies that Flotek is poised to position. Now the level of that, Josh, I mean, that's hard to say right now. But I do think I do see a little bit of silver lining in the back half of the year and as we look at 2027.
Ryan Ezell: I think we see that upside potential maybe in the back half of the year to start to answer some of the call here, and I think that'll require some of the advanced technologies that Flotek is poised to position. Now the level of that, Josh, I mean, that's hard to say right now. But I do think I do see a little bit of silver lining in the back half of the year and as we look at 2027.
Speaker #3: But I think we see that that upside potential , maybe in the back half of the year to start to answer , answer some of the call here .
Speaker #3: And I think that requires some of the advanced technologies that Flotek is poised to position. Now, the level of that... Josh.
Bond Clement: Yeah. I'll just add one thing, Josh. I think it's gonna be interesting to see how producers react relative to the hedge market. I mean, obviously the curve's still pretty backwardated, but I think just generally even looking out past the spike out to the latter months, those numbers are probably a good bit higher than what expectations were for oil coming into the year. So, you know, if operators have the opportunity and go ahead and lock in those prices over a longer term, I mean, obviously that underwrites higher CapEx.
Bond Clement: Yeah. I'll just add one thing, Josh. I think it's gonna be interesting to see how producers react relative to the hedge market. I mean, obviously the curve's still pretty backwardated, but I think just generally even looking out past the spike out to the latter months, those numbers are probably a good bit higher than what expectations were for oil coming into the year. So, you know, if operators have the opportunity and go ahead and lock in those prices over a longer term, I mean, obviously that underwrites higher CapEx.
Speaker #3: I mean , I that's hard to say right now , but I do think I do see a little bit of silver lining in the back half of the year .
Speaker #3: And as we look at 27.
Speaker #4: Yeah , I'll just add one thing . Josh . I think it's going to be interesting to see how producers react relative to the hedge market .
Speaker #4: I mean , obviously the curve is still pretty backwardated , but I think just generally even looking out past the spike out to the latter months , those numbers are probably a good bit higher than what expectations were for oil coming into the year .
Speaker #4: So, you know, if operators have the opportunity and go ahead and lock in those prices over a longer term, I mean, obviously that underwrites a higher CapEx.
Josh Jayne: For sure. I appreciate the color. Thanks for taking my question.
Josh Jayne: For sure. I appreciate the color. Thanks for taking my question.
Operator: Thank you. Your next question is from Gowshi Sri from Singular Research. Your line is now open.
Operator: Thank you. Your next question is from Gowshi Sri from Singular Research. Your line is now open.
Speaker #10: For sure . I appreciate the color . Thanks for taking my question
Gowshi Sri: Good morning, gentlemen. Can you all hear me?
Gowrishankar Sriram: Good morning, gentlemen. Can you all hear me?
Speaker #1: Thank you . Your next question is from Jersey Street from Singular Research . Your line is open .
Ryan Ezell: Yes.
Ryan Ezell: Yes.
Bond Clement: Yes, sir.
Bond Clement: Yes, sir.
Gowshi Sri: All right. Congrats on a strong year and a continued execution. On your expected data analytics drive to be more than half of the company profitability, if we think about that qualitatively, how sensitive is that mixed target to the timing of a few large PWRtek wins? Or is that 50% threshold achieved even if a couple of projects slip right to the end of the calendar?
Gowrishankar Sriram: All right. Congrats on a strong year and a continued execution. On your expected data analytics drive to be more than half of the company profitability, if we think about that qualitatively, how sensitive is that mixed target to the timing of a few large PWRtek wins? Or is that 50% threshold achieved even if a couple of projects slip right to the end of the calendar?
Speaker #11: Good morning gentlemen . Can you all hear me ?
Speaker #3: Yes .
Speaker #4: Sir .
Speaker #11: Hi . Congrats on a strong year and a continued execution . You , on your expected data analytics drive to be more than half of the company profitability .
Speaker #11: If we think about that qualitatively , how sensitive is that mix target to the timing of a few large tech wins ? Or is that 50% threshold achieved ?
Bond Clement: Yeah. I mean, if you look at the Q4, we were effectively there. We're at 40%, gross margins or gross profit from data analytics. Just thinking about how the PWRtek lease agreement, which we talked about will be 70% higher in 2026 versus 2025 just due to longer duration for the full year versus a partial year last year. We feel extremely confident we're gonna exceed 50% in 2026 on the DA side.
Bond Clement: Yeah. I mean, if you look at the Q4, we were effectively there. We're at 40%, gross margins or gross profit from data analytics. Just thinking about how the PWRtek lease agreement, which we talked about will be 70% higher in 2026 versus 2025 just due to longer duration for the full year versus a partial year last year. We feel extremely confident we're gonna exceed 50% in 2026 on the DA side.
Speaker #11: Even in a couple of projects ? Slip in , slipped right to the of the calendar ?
Speaker #4: Yeah . I mean , if you look at the fourth quarter , we were effectively there . We at 40% gross margins or gross profit from data analytics .
Speaker #4: So just thinking about how the power tech or the power tech lease agreement , which we talked about will be 70% higher in 2026 versus 2025 , just due to longer duration for the full year versus a partial year last year , we feel extremely confident we're going to exceed 50% in 2026 .
Operator: Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. I will now hand the call back over to Mike Critelli for the closing remarks.
