●Introduced multi-year growth capital expenditure guidance of $1.4 billion to $1.6 billion cumulatively from 2027 through 2030.

Management Commentary and Outlook

“The compression market outlook remains highly constructive, driven by durable natural gas demand and a structurally tight compression market continuing to support our expectations for robust long-term growth,” said Brad Childers, Archrock’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our Contract Compression business continues to perform at a high level, supported by strong utilization, outstanding profitability and a healthy order book. This demand outlook supports reaffirming 2026 growth capital expenditures of $250 million to $275 million and a multi-year growth capital investment opportunity ranging from $1.4 billion to $1.6 billion cumulatively from 2027 through 2030.

“We are tightening our full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance to primarily reflect near-term costs, including lube oil and timing impacts. This does not reflect a change in demand fundamentals. We remain confident in the strength of our core business and long-term outlook.

“We are focused on maximizing customer service and operational reliability, supporting critical midstream infrastructure tied to long-term growth in LNG exports and power demand, and maintaining a disciplined, returns-based approach to capital allocation. Our continued dividend increases, including five increases over the past two years, reflect our strong confidence in the durability of our long-term cash flow projections. Archrock has sector-leading balance sheet strength and a growing free cash flow profile, which position us well to support our customers’ long-term natural gas infrastructure needs while continuing to create peer-leading and durable shareholder value,” concluded Childers.

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Archrock’s second quarter 2026 net income of $66.7 million included a non-cash long-lived and other asset impairment of $4.9 million. Archrock’s second quarter 2025 net income of $63.4 million included a non-cash long-lived and other asset impairment of $10.8 million and transaction-related costs totaling $6.1 million.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026 and 2025 included $0.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively, in net gains primarily related to the sale of compression and other assets. Also included in Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2026 was a debt extinguishment gain of $0.7 million related to the redemption of all outstanding 6.250% senior notes due 2028 on April 1, 2026 (the “2028 Notes”).

Contract Operations

For the second quarter of 2026, contract operations segment revenue totaled $329.3 million, an increase of 3% compared to $318.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. Total operating horsepower at the end of the second quarter of 2026 was 4.5 million compared to 4.7 million at the end of the second quarter of 2025, reflecting period-end fleet utilization of 94.4% and the sale of approximately 165,000 non-strategic operating horsepower since the prior-year period.

Adjusted gross margin for the second quarter of 2026 was $234.6 million, up 6% from $222.2 million in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2026 was 71%, compared to 70% in the second quarter of 2025.

Aftermarket Services

For the second quarter of 2026, aftermarket services segment revenue totaled $42.0 million, compared to $64.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting lower parts sales due to the absence of non-recurring sales of overhauled engines that benefited the prior-year quarter and reduced customer demand for major maintenance service activity, which did not experience the typical mid-year seasonal uptick. Adjusted gross margin for the second quarter of 2026 was $9.9 million, compared to $14.9 million in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2026 was 24%, compared to 23% for the second quarter of 2025.

Balance Sheet

Long-term debt was $2.3 billion, and our available liquidity totaled $631 million at June 30, 2026. Our leverage ratio was 2.6x as of June 30, 2026, down from 3.3x as of June 30, 2025.

On April 1, 2026, we repurchased our 2028 Notes. The 2028 Notes were redeemed at 100% of their $800.0 million aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest of approximately $25.0 million with borrowings under our $1.5 billion asset-based revolving credit facility due May 2028. We recorded a debt extinguishment gain of $0.7 million related to unamortized debt premium during the second quarter of 2026, partially offset by unamortized issuance costs.

Shareholder Returns

Quarterly Dividend

Our Board of Directors recently declared a quarterly dividend of $0.23 per share of common stock, or $0.92 per share on an annualized basis, approximately 10% higher compared to the second quarter of 2025. Dividend coverage in the second quarter of 2026 was 3.1x. The second quarter 2026 dividend will be paid on August 11, 2026 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 4, 2026.

Share Repurchase Program

We did not repurchase any outstanding shares during the second quarter of 2026. The share repurchase program had an available capacity of $113.2 million as of June 30, 2026.

Since the inception of the Share Repurchase Program in April 2023 and through June 30, 2026, we have repurchased 4,632,263 shares of common stock at an average price of $20.91 per share for an aggregate of $96.9 million.

2026 Annual Guidance

Archrock is providing updated annual guidance as listed below. The updated 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance primarily reflects changes in certain assumptions, including an increase in contract compression make-ready costs to put idle equipment back to work, anticipated second-half lube oil cost pressure, reduced customer demand for aftermarket services, which did not experience the typical mid-year seasonal uptick, and higher SG&A expense due to higher long-term incentive compensation primarily driven by stock price increases. All figures are in thousands, except percentages and ratios:

(1) 2026 annual guidance for net income includes $10.1 million of long-lived and other asset impairment as of June 30, 2026, but does not include the impact of long-lived and other asset impairment because due to its nature, it cannot be accurately forecasted. Long-lived and other asset impairment does not impact Adjusted EBITDA or cash available for dividend, however it is a reconciling item between these measures and net income. Long-lived and other asset impairment for the years 2025 and 2024 was $18.3 million and $10.7 million, respectively.

(2) Reflects an estimate of expenses incurred related to the acquisitions of Total Operations and Production Services, LLC (“TOPS”) and Natural Gas Compression Systems, Inc. and NGCSE, Inc. (“NGCS”).

(3) Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors because this non-GAAP measure, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons.

(4) Management uses cash available for dividend as a supplemental performance measure to compute the coverage ratio of estimated cash flows to planned dividends.

(5) A forward-looking estimate of cash provided by operating activities is not provided because certain items necessary to estimate cash provided by operating activities, including changes in assets and liabilities, are not estimable at this time. Changes in assets and liabilities were $(58.9) million and $(25.8) million for the years 2025 and 2024, respectively.

(1) Management believes adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross margin percentage, adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow after dividend provide useful information to investors because these non-GAAP measures, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to review current period operating performance, comparability measures and performance measures for period-to-period comparisons.

(1) Represents an estimated tax effect of restructuring charges, transaction-related costs and debt extinguishment gain based on the federal statutory tax rate of 21%.

(2) Management believes adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share provide useful information to investors because these non-GAAP measures, when viewed with our GAAP results and accompanying reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to review our current period operating performance, comparability measure and performance measure for period-to-period comparisons without burdened earnings and earnings per share for non-recurring transactional costs.

(3) Basic and diluted earnings per common share is computed using the two-class method to determine the net income per share for each class of common stock and participating security (restricted stock and stock-settled restricted stock units that have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents) according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Accordingly, we have excluded net income attributable to participating securities from our calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share.

Long-lived and other asset impairment does not impact Adjusted EBITDA or cash available for dividend; however, it is a reconciling item between these measures and net income.
