“We are pleased with our second quarter 2024 results as we completed the acquisition of CSI Compressco to form the industry’s largest contract compression fleet and delivered record revenues and Adjusted EBITDA,” stated Mickey McKee, Kodiak’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We’ve made tremendous progress on integration and have raised our estimate of the synergies we expect to realize through the combination to over $30 million, driving margin expansion and growth in future cash flows.
"Our leading position in the Permian Basin positions us to benefit from the coming growth in U.S. natural gas supply to meet demand from LNG and electricity load growth to power data centers. Large horsepower compression remains in high demand, and our new unit deliveries are effectively fully contracted through 2025. This positive outlook along with our solid execution gives us confidence to raise the low end of our 2024 Adjusted EBITDA guidance range and increase our quarterly dividend. We’re committed to returning

Full-Year 2024 Guidance
Kodiak is providing revised guidance for the full year 2024. The full-year 2024 guidance below incorporates three quarters of the financial impact of the CSI Acquisition that closed on April 1, 2024. Amounts below are in thousands except percentages.

(1)The Company is unable to reconcile projected Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income (loss) and Discretionary Cash Flow to projected net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, respectively, without unreasonable efforts because components of the calculations are inherently unpredictable, such as changes to current assets and liabilities, unknown future events, and estimating certain future GAAP measures. The inability to project certain components of the calculation would significantly affect the accuracy of the reconciliations.
(2)Discretionary Cash Flow assumes no change to Secured Overnight Financing Rate futures.
(3)Growth capital expenditures guidance excludes (i) approximately $30 million in one-time capital expenditures related to the CSI Acquisition, (ii) a $20 million non-cash accrual for sales taxes on compression units purchased in prior years and (iii) proceeds from the pending sale of small horsepower compression units.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, net; income tax expense (benefit); and depreciation and amortization; plus (i) loss (gain) on derivatives; (ii) equity compensation expense; (iii) severance expenses; (iv) transaction expenses; and (v) loss (gain) on sale of assets. Adjusted EBITDA Percentage is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Percentage are used as supplemental financial measures by our management and external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and other financial institutions, to assess: (i) the financial performance of our assets without regard to the impact of financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis of our assets; (ii) the viability of capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities; (iii) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to make debt payments and pay dividends; and (iv) our operating performance as compared to those of other companies in our industry without regard to the impact of financing methods and capital structure. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Percentage provide useful information to investors because, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, they provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. We also believe that external users of our financial statements benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating the results of our business. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as revenue less cost of operations, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage is defined as Adjusted Gross Margin divided by revenues. We believe Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Gross Margin Percentage are useful as supplemental measures to investors of our operating profitability. Reconciliations of Adjusted Gross Margin to gross margin are presented below.
Discretionary Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures;(ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; and (iv) certain other expenses; plus (x) cash loss on extinguishment of debt; and (y) transaction expenses. We believe Discretionary Cash Flow is a useful liquidity and performance measure and supplemental financial measure for us and our investors in assessing our ability to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, make growth capital expenditures and assess our operating performance. Reconciliations of Discretionary Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures; (ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; (iv) certain other expenses; and (v) net growth capital expenditures; plus (x) transaction expenses; and (y) proceeds from sale of capital assets. We believe Free Cash Flow is a liquidity measure and useful supplemental financial measure for us and investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments to grow our business and to service our debt. Reconciliations of Free Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
