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.

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 difficulties in retaining employees as a result of the Moser Acquisition; the risks related to Atlas’s financing of the Moser Acquisition; potential negative effects of this announcement and the pendency or completion of the Moser Acquisition on the market price of Atlas’s common stock or operating results; unexpected future capital expenditures; our ability to successfully execute our stock repurchase program or implement future stock repurchase programs; commodity price volatility, including volatility stemming from the ongoing armed conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and Israel and Hamas; increasing hostilities and instability in the Middle East; adverse developments affecting the financial services industry; our ability to complete growth projects on time and on budget; the risk that stockholder litigation in connection with our recent corporate reorganization may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; transaction costs; actions of OPEC+ to set and maintain oil production levels; the level of production of crude oil, natural gas and other hydrocarbons and the resultant market prices of crude oil; inflation; environmental risks; operating risks; regulatory changes; lack of demand; market share growth; the uncertainty inherent in projecting future rates of reserves; production; cash flow; access to capital; the timing of development expenditures; the ability of our customers to meet their obligations to us; our ability to maintain effective internal controls; and other factors discussed or referenced in our filings made from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2024, and any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them.

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.

Atlas Energy Solutions (NYSE: AESI) | January 2025 17 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.
