Read MoreHide Full Article
A month has gone by since the last earnings report for ProPetro Holding (PUMP - Free Report) . Shares have added about 27.8% in that time frame, outperforming the S&P 500.
But investors have to be wondering, will the recent positive trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is ProPetro due for a pullback? Well, first let's take a quick look at the latest earnings report in order to get a better handle on the recent drivers for ProPetro Holding Corp. before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late.
ProPetro Q4 Earnings & Revenues Top Estimates
ProPetro Holding reported a fourth-quarter 2025 adjusted profit per share of 1 cent, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 13 cents. The bottom line also improved from the year-ago loss of 1 cent per share, backed by a 16.3% year-over-year decline in costs and expenses.
Revenues of $290 million beat the consensus mark of $280 million. This improvement can be attributed to better-than-expected service revenues in the Wireline and Hydraulic Fracturing segments. Revenues in the Wireline segment reached $55.4 million, surpassing the consensus estimate by 7.4%. Revenues in the Hydraulic Fracturing segment reached $203.9 million, surpassing the consensus estimate by 1.4%. However, the top line decreased 9.6% from the year-ago quarter’s level of $321 million. This was due to a year-over-year decline in service revenues from the Hydraulic Fracturing and Cementing segments.
Adjusted EBITDA amounted to $51 million, up 46% from $35 million reported in the previous quarter. The figure also topped our model estimate of $46.4 million.
For the quarter under review, the Midland, TX-based oil and gas equipment and services company posted a net income of $1 million, a sequential rise from the previous quarter’s reported net loss of $2 million.
