Management has allocated capital toward building durable advantages. The Hi‑Crush acquisition created the largest proppant producer and strengthened logistics at what appears to be a roughly 3x adjusted EBITDA multiple.
The Moser acquisition added a distributed‑power platform at an estimated ~4.3x 2025 EBITDA, seeding contracted, higher‑quality cash flows. Significant growth capex funded Dune Express and OnCore mobile mines to entrench cost and service advantages. The April 2026 converts reduced financing cost and help fund equipment under the Caterpillar GFA.
Offsetting risks: dividend suspension in late 2025, integration and maintenance outlays, share count increases from 2025 equity raise, and potential dilution from the 2031 converts. Net, the track record is bold and mostly rational, but must be validated by cash conversion through the cycle.
