ProPetro (PUMP) Buys Par Five, Solidifies Cementing Position
Read MoreHide Full Article
ProPetro Holding (PUMP - Free Report) has agreed to acquire the assets and business operations of Par Five Energy Services LLC, an established leader in cementing services in the Delaware Basin.
Par Five Energy Services, founded in 2011, has built a strong reputation for providing efficient cementing services to major oil and gas producers in southeastern New Mexico. The recent expansion of its bulk plant further underscores its commitment to meeting operational demands with state-of-the-art facilities.
ProPetro's existing cementing business in the Midland Basin region of the Permian Basin should complement Par Five’s operations. To ensure a smooth transition, Par Five will be integrated into ProPetro’s cementing and operating team and brand. This acquisition aligns with the Midland, Texas-based oilfield service provider’s strategy to strengthen its position in the Permian Basin, serving both the Midland and Delaware Basin areas.
PUMP emphasized the strategic importance of the acquisition, highlighting its alignment with Par Five’s growth strategy and the potential for increased free cash flow generation. The move is seen as an opportunity to capitalize on revenue synergies by leveraging Par Five’s capacity alongside ProPetro’s commercial architecture and established customer relationships.
The acquisition is expected to boost ProPetro's 2024 adjusted EBITDA by approximately $10 million, with 80-90% converting into free cash flow. This financial enhancement strengthens ProPetro’s position and supports its strategy of pursuing increased free cash flow generation while expanding its cementing operations into the Delaware Basin.
By uniting their strengths, ProPetro and Par Five aim to consolidate their positions in the cementing services industry, offering a comprehensive suite of high-quality solutions to meet market demands. This strategic move is a testament to ProPetro’s commitment to growth, innovation, and delivering exceptional value to its stakeholders as the two players continue expanding their capabilities.
