ProPetro Holding Corp. (PUMP - Free Report) recently issued a preliminary update on fourth-quarter 2020 financial and operational results.
Q4 Financial Estimates
ProPetro’squarterly revenues are projected between $151 million and $157 million. The oilfield service provider’s service cost (excluding depreciation and amortization costs) is estimated in the $112-$119 million band for the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, general and administrative expenses are expected in the $14-$16 million range for the quarter to be reported.
As of Dec 31, 2020, ProPetro had cash and cash equivalents worth $69 million and did not incur any long-term debt. It also has $52 million under its revolving credit facility. Capital expenditures for the full year are projected to be lower than $85 million and in line with the company’s prior expectations.
Other Updates
The company’s fourth-quarter effective fleet utilization is 9.6 while that for the first quarter of 2021 is estimated between 10.5 and 11.5 fleets. The company intends to retire nearly 150,000 hydraulic horsepower (HHP) of Tier II diesel equipment in the March quarter of 2021, a maiden strategic move in its track record so far.
With a view to transform its active fleet for lower emissions and cleaner burning dual fuel device, Propetro aims to reallocate nearly $37 million to planned refurbishment capital expenditure.
Meanwhile, ProPetro commissioned a DuraStim frac pump for field testing with a present customer as it looks to commercialize the sophisticated pump system in the latter half of this year.
With all its planned investments in the Tier IV DGB and the advancement of its fully electric DuraStim® technology, ProPetro moved an inch closer to achieve its target of minimizing operating expenses and reducing emissions.
CEO Phillip Gobe says, “After successfully navigating all the difficulties of 2020, we are building on that success going into 2021. Our best-in-class operating team continues to deliver excellent results to our blue-chip customers in all market conditions, and together we look forward to advancing our mutual sustainability goals in the coming year”.

The company offers a wide spectrum of specialized, complementary services and equipment for exploration and production of oil and natural gas.
It is set to release fourth-quarter 2020 earnings results on Feb 23, after the market closes. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at a loss of 22 cents per share while the same for revenues stands at $149.89 million.
Be among the early investors in the new type of device that experts say could impact society as much as the discovery of electricity. Current technology will soon be outdated and replaced by these new devices. In the process, it’s expected to create 22 million jobs and generate $12.3 trillion in activity.
A select few stocks could skyrocket the most as rollout accelerates for this new tech. Early investors could see gains similar to buying Microsoft in the 1990s. Zacks’ just-released special report reveals 8 stocks to watch. The report is only available for a limited time.
