Exhibit 99.1
Atlas Energy Solutions Inc. Announces Agreement to Acquire Moser
Energy Systems
and Provides Preliminary Fourth Quarter and
Year-End 2024 Results
Austin, TX – January 27, 2025 –
Atlas Energy Solutions Inc. (NYSE: AESI) (“Atlas” or the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into
a definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of Moser Acquisition, Inc. (“Moser Energy Systems”
or “Moser”), a leading provider of distributed power solutions, in a transaction valued at $220 million (the “Moser
Acquisition”).
The transaction consideration includes $180 million
of cash and approximately 1.7 million shares (the “Stock Consideration”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01
per share, which are valued at $40.0 million based on the 20-day trailing volume-weighted average price ending at the close of trading
on Friday, January 24, 2025. Atlas has the ability to elect to pay the aggregate transaction consideration in cash in lieu of Atlas’s
issuance of the Stock Consideration (the “Cash Option”). The final consideration mix will be determined at closing and the
Stock Consideration is subject to revision for customary post-closing adjustments. Following closing, if the Cash Option has not been
exercised, all or any portion of the Stock Consideration will be subject to redemption at the option of Atlas, with any such redemption
to be paid in cash.
Acquisition Highlights
| · | The combination of Atlas’s completion platform
and Moser’s distributed power platform creates an innovative, diversified energy solutions provider with a leading portfolio of
proppant, logistics (including the Dune Express) and distributed power solutions. |
| · | Dynamic fleet of natural gas-powered assets (~212MWs)
expands Atlas’s current operations into production and distributed power end markets supported by strong macro tailwinds expected
to reduce through-cycle volatility associated with completions operations. |
| · | Moser’s
strong EBITDA(1) margin profile of 50%+ and robust cash flow generation is expected to
enhance Atlas’s pro forma cash flow generation and shareholder returns. |
| · | Adds
critical, differentiated in-house manufacturing and remanufacturing capabilities driving best-in-class quality and reliability while
reducing through-cycle maintenance and equipment replacement costs. |
| · | Increases Atlas’s customer reach with a
vital power service offering in Atlas’s core geography, the Permian Basin, while providing geographic diversity with operating locations
in key oil and gas basins across the central United States. |
| · | Estimated to be immediately accretive. |
| · | Assuming 10-months of contribution, we expect
the acquired assets to generate $40-45 million in Adjusted EBITDA(1) in 2025, which implies on a full run-rate basis
a valuation of approximately 4.3x 2025 Adjusted EBITDA(1). |
| · | The transaction is expected to close before the
end of the first quarter of 2025. |
1 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial
measures. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures for a discussion of these measures and a reconciliation of estimated 2024 Adjusted EBITDA to
our most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
John Turner, President and Chief Executive Officer
of Atlas, commented, “Today marks yet another exciting milestone for Atlas. This acquisition diversifies the Company into attractive
high-growth end markets in both production and distributed power while strengthening Atlas’s current market position as a leading
provider of energy solutions within the oil and gas sector across North America. This transaction highlights our continued commitment
to evolve our organization by deploying innovative and differentiated solutions to return value to our shareholders. We are looking forward
to continuing to invest in our current operations and expand the capabilities of our distributed power platform.”
“When we made our original investment in Moser, we saw a company
with tremendous potential and a rich legacy of customer service and excellence that Randy Moser and his family had built over the previous
40 years. We have worked hard to be good caretakers of that legacy as we have grown the business, and we view Atlas Energy as the perfect
company to further build upon that legacy,” said Mark Plunkett, Managing Partner of Hilltop Opportunity Partners. “We have
greatly valued the partnership we have had with the Moser team over the last several years and look forward to watching them thrive as
they lead Moser into this next chapter with Atlas.”
Transaction Financing
At closing, Atlas will fund $180 million of cash
and 1.7 million shares of Atlas common stock, subject to the Cash Option, to Moser’s sole shareholder. Atlas has secured funding for the cash portion of the consideration,
including the Cash Option, if exercised, through an upsizing amendment to its existing delayed draw term loan facility.
Transaction Timing and Approvals
Atlas’s Board of Directors has approved
the Moser Acquisition. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and the Company expects the transaction to close by
the end of the first quarter of 2025.

About Atlas Energy Solutions
Atlas Energy Solutions Inc. is a leading proppant
producer and proppant logistics provider, serving primarily the Permian Basin of West Texas and New Mexico. We operate 14 proppant production
facilities across the Permian Basin with a combined annual production capacity of 29 million tons, including both large-scale in-basin
facilities and smaller distributed mining units. We manage a portfolio of leading-edge logistics assets, which includes our 42-mile Dune
Express conveyor system. In addition to our conveyor infrastructure, we manage a fleet of over 120 trucks, which are capable of delivering
expanded payloads due to our custom-manufactured trailers and patented drop-depot process. Our approach to managing both our proppant
production and proppant logistics operations is intently focused on leveraging technology, automation and remote operations to drive efficiencies.
We are a low-cost producer of various high-quality,
locally sourced proppants used during the well completion process. We offer both dry and damp sand, and carry various mesh sizes including
100 mesh and 40/70 mesh. Proppant is a key component necessary to facilitate the recovery of hydrocarbons from oil and natural gas wells.
Our logistics platform is designed to increase
the efficiency, safety and sustainability of the oil and natural gas industry within the Permian Basin. Proppant logistics is increasingly
a differentiating factor affecting customer choice among proppant producers. The cost of delivering sand, even short distances, can be
a significant component of customer spending on their well completions given the substantial volumes that are utilized in modern well
designs.
We continue to invest in and pursue leading-edge
technologies, including autonomous trucking, digital infrastructure, and artificial intelligence, to support opportunities to gain efficiencies
in our operations. These technology-focused investments aim to improve our cost structure and also combine to produce beneficial environmental
and community impacts.
While our core business is fundamentally aligned
with a lower emissions economy, our core obligation has been, and will always be, to our stockholders. We recognize that maximizing value
for our stockholders requires that we optimize the outcomes for our broader stakeholders, including our employees and the communities
in which we operate. We are proud of the fact that our approach to innovation in the hydrocarbon industry while operating in an environmentally
responsible manner creates immense value. Since our founding in 2017, our core mission has been to improve human beings’ access
to the hydrocarbons that power our lives while also delivering differentiated social and environmental progress. Our Atlas team has driven
innovation and has produced industry-leading environmental benefits by reducing energy consumption, emissions, and our aerial footprint.
We call this Sustainable Environmental and Social Progress.
We were founded in 2017 by Ben M. “Bud”
Brigham, our Executive Chairman, and are led by an entrepreneurial team with a history of constructive disruption bringing significant
and complementary experience to this enterprise, including the perspective of longtime E&P operators, which provides for an elevated
understanding of the end users of our products and services. Our executive management team has a proven track record with a history of
generating positive returns and value creation. Our experience as E&P operators was instrumental to our understanding of the opportunity
created by in-basin sand production and supply in the Permian Basin, which we view as North America’s premier shale resource and
which we believe will remain its most active through economic cycles.

to Adjusted EBITDA; expectations regarding the leverage and dividend profile
of Atlas following the Moser Acquisition; the expected synergies and efficiencies to be achieved as a result of the Moser Acquisition;

Although forward-looking statements reflect
our good faith beliefs at the time they are made, we caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. These risks include but
are not limited to: the completion of the Moser Acquisition on anticipated terms and timing or at all, including obtaining any
required governmental or regulatory approval and satisfying other conditions to the completion of the Moser Acquisition;
uncertainties as to whether the Moser Acquisition, if consummated, will achieve its anticipated benefits and projected synergies
within the expected time period or at all; Atlas’s ability to integrate Moser’s operations in a successful manner and in
the expected time period; the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the
Moser Acquisition; risks that the anticipated tax treatment of the Moser Acquisition is not obtained; unforeseen or unknown
liabilities; potential litigation relating to the Moser Acquisition; the possibility that the Moser Acquisition may be more
expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; the effect of the announcement,
pendency or completion of the Moser Acquisition on the parties’ business relationships and business generally; risks that the
Moser Acquisition disrupts current plans and operations of Atlas or Moser and their respective management teams and potential

except as may be required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes or
references certain forward-looking financial measures not prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”),
including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Because Atlas provides certain of these
measures on a forward-looking basis, it cannot reliably or reasonably predict certain of the necessary components of the most directly
comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures, such as Gross Profit, Net Income, Operating Income, or any other measure derived in
accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, Atlas is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking, non-GAAP financial
measures to the respective most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures. Atlas believes that these forward-looking,
non-GAAP measures may be a useful tool for the investment community in comparing Atlas’s forecasted financial performance to the
forecasted financial performance of other companies in the industry.

Non-GAAP Measure Definitions
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before
depreciation, depletion and accretion, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, interest expense, income tax expense, stock
and unit-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on disposal of assets, insurance recovery (gain), unrealized commodity
derivative gain (loss), other acquisition related costs, and other non-recurring costs. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful
because it allows management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operating performance and compare the results of its operations
from period to period and against our peers without regard to financing method or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above
from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry
depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired.
We define EBITDA as net income before depreciation,
depletion and accretion expense, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, interest expense, and income tax expense.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes or references certain forward-looking financial measures not prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including free cash flow, cash
flow per share, Adjusted EBITDA and earnings per share. Because Atlas provides these measures on a forward-looking basis, it cannot reliably or reasonably predict certain of the necessary
components of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures, such as Gross Profit, Net Income, Operating Income, or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP.
Accordingly, Atlas is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking, non-GAAP financial measures to the respective most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial
measures. Atlas believes that these forward-looking, non-GAAP measures may be a useful tool for the investment community in comparing Atlas’s forecasted financial performance to the forecasted
financial performance of other companies in the industry.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Definitions
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, EBITDA, EBIT, ROCE and Maintenance Capital Expenditures are non-GAAP supplemental financial
measures used by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts and others, in the case
of Adjusted EBITDA, to assess our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of development activities,
provide views on capital resources available to organically fund growth projects and, in the case of Adjusted Free Cash Flow, assess the financial
performance of our assets and their ability to sustain dividends or reinvest to organically fund growth projects over the long term without regard to
financing methods, capital structure, or historical cost basis.
These measures do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income, income from operations, net
cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our
financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA, EBIT, ROCE and Adjusted Free Cash Flow have important limitations as analytical tools
because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our computation of
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, EBITDA, EBIT, ROCE and Maintenance Capital Expenditures may differ from computations of
similarly titled measures of other companies.
Non-GAAP Measure Definitions:
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before depreciation, depletion and accretion, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets,
interest expense, income tax expense, stock and unit-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on disposal of assets,
insurance recovery (gain), unrealized commodity derivative gain (loss), other acquisition related costs, and other non-recurring costs.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows management to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operating
performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period and against our peers without regard to financing method or capital
structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially
from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the
method by which the assets were acquired.
We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less Maintenance Capital Expenditures. Management believes that Adjusted Free
Cash Flow is useful to investors as it provides a measure of the ability of our business to generate cash.
We define Maintenance Capital Expenditures as capital expenditures excluding growth capital expenditures.
We define EBITDA as net income before depreciation, depletion and accretion expense, interest expense, and income tax expense.
We define EBIT as net income before interest expense and income tax expense.
We define ROCE as Adjusted EBITDA less depreciation, depletion, and accretion expense. |

Exhibit 99.3
Updated Risk Factors
Risks Related to the Moser Acquisition
We face a variety of risks related to our
entry into a new line of business following the completion of the Moser Acquisition.
Our entry into scaled distributed power solutions
is expected to enhance our position as a mobile equipment and logistics solution provider to the oil and natural gas industry as well
as diversify our business.
Entry into a new line of business may also subject
us to new laws and regulations with which we are not familiar and may lead to increased litigation and regulatory risk. Further, our management
team has not directly engaged in the distributed power solutions business before, and its lack of experience may result in delays or further
complications to the new business. If we are unable to successfully implement the acquired business of Moser, our revenue and profitability
may not grow as we expect, our competitiveness may be materially and adversely affected, and our reputation and business may be harmed.
The market price for our common stock following
the closing of the Moser Acquisition may be affected by factors different from those that historically have affected or currently affect
our common stock.
Our results of operations following the completion
of the Moser Acquisition may be affected by some factors that are different from those that have affected our results of operations in
the past. Accordingly, the market price and performance of our common stock is likely to be different from the performance of our common
stock in the absence of the Moser Acquisition. In addition, general fluctuations in stock markets could have a material adverse effect
on the market for, or liquidity of, our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.
Our newly acquired power solutions segment
is dependent on its relationships with key suppliers to obtain equipment for its business.
Our power generation business is dependent
on a sole key supplier for access to the unique equipment used in the provision of our power solutions offering. If we fail to
maintain an adequate relationship with this supplier, if we fail to receive equipment from this supplier in a timely manner or, if
we are required to find an alternative supplier of equipment, then our competitive position may be harmed and our operations,
financial conditions and/or cash flows may be negatively impacted.
In addition, the prices of certain equipment may
continue to experience inflationary pressures, which may be exacerbated by our reliance on a single key supplier, that could further increase
such costs. We may not be able to pass on these costs to our customers, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations,
financial condition or cash flows.
Unavailability of, and lengthy delays in
obtaining, the necessary equipment may result from a number of factors affecting our supplier including capacity constraints, labor
shortages or disputes, supplier product quality issues and our supplier’s allocations to other purchasers. These risks can be
magnified in a weak economic environment or following increases in demand arising from an economic downturn, but are also generally
present due to the nature of our business and its dependence on highly-specialized equipment. Such disruptions could result in our
inability to effectively meet the needs of our customers and could result in a material adverse effect on our operations, financial
condition or cash flows.
Many of our power systems involve long sales
cycles.
The sales cycle for our power systems, from initial
contact with potential customers to the commencement of field delivery, may be lengthy. Customers generally consider a wide range of solutions
before making a decision to rent or to purchase power systems. Before a customer commits to rent or purchase power systems, they often
require a significant technical review, assessment of competitive offerings and approval at a number of management levels within their
organization. During the time our customers are evaluating our power solutions offerings, we may incur substantial sales and marketing,
engineering, and research and development expenses.
Our customers may not continue to outsource
their power system needs.
Our customers can evaluate a wide range of applications
and equipment to address standby and/or prime power generation needs. As a result of the significant resources and expertise required
to develop these systems, certain of these customers have historically chosen to outsource the provision of power generation to Moser.
To a significant extent, we will depend on customers continuing to outsource their power generation needs. Additionally, we may be unable
to successfully maintain business relationships with customers due to difficulties integrating the acquired business or inability to provide
customers with the same level of service following the Moser Acquisition. Customers may not continue to outsource as much or any of their
power generation needs in the future or may seek alternative solutions.
We depend on a few customers for a significant
portion of our power solutions segment revenues, and the loss of one or more significant customers could affect our ability to maintain
the revenues of our power solutions segment.
In 2024, Moser derived more than 10% of its total
revenues from a single customer. If, following our acquisition of Moser, we were to lose this or any of our power solutions segment’s significant
customers without finding replacement customers, or if these customers were to change the terms, including pricing terms, on which they
buy power solutions from us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Distributed power solutions in some applications compete with
access to the grid.
Distributed power solutions are an alternative for customers to consider
when grid access is unavailable, costly or delayed. Our distributed power service offering could be affected in the event that large-scale
utility projects are completed and the associated transmission and distribution networks are established. In this case, customers may
only use our service offering as bridge power until line power is received or backup power.
