Management Comments

John Schmitz

The second quarter was a very strong quarter for Select across all three operating segments, with both our Water Infrastructure and Chemical Technologies segments producing record revenue and gross profit in the quarter. During the second quarter of 2026, we delivered strong consolidated revenue and gross profit growth, resulting in $23 million of net income and $93 million of Adjusted EBITDA, respectively. We continue to increase our produced water volumes handled in the Water Infrastructure segment, with approximately 1.5 million barrels of produced water recycled or disposed per day in the second quarter, while also seeing the benefit of increased skim oil volumes and pricing, resulting in record quarterly revenue of $102 million and gross margins before D&A of 58% for the segment in the second quarter. We expect to see further growth in the third quarter and are well on track to meet the upper end of our full year guidance for the segment, setting the stage for solid year-over-year growth into 2027. Further supporting this growth profile is the expansion of our multi-basin relationship and operations with a key customer through the execution of a strategic minimum volume commitment contract award, comprised of a 128-million-barrel commitment over a seven-year term. Furthermore, the agreement includes the direct conveyance of a portfolio of underutilized, but strategic SWDs across Lea and Eddy Counties, New Mexico. We continue to find ways to collaborate with our customers to maximize the value of existing assets and to optimize produced water management as part of their long-term development planning. We view this contract as a strong validation of the strategic value proposition of Select’s broad and expanding commercial network of integrated recycling and disposal solutions. As our system continues to grow throughout the Northern Delaware Basin, Select’s backlog of potential opportunities has continued to evolve as well, and we are acutely focused on prudent growth that prioritizes long-term contracts, strong cash flow streams, and increased utilization across our networks. In support of our latest infrastructure contract awards and opportunities, we now expect net capital expenditures of $250 – $290 million in 2026. Elsewhere, our Chemical Technologies segment saw significant sequential improvement, coming in well above our expectations, with a 23% increase in revenue and 30% increase in gross profit before D&A as compared to the first quarter of 2026. The $96 million of Chemical Technologies revenue in the second quarter was a segment record, and we continue to identify ways to deliver strong margins, despite increases to oil-based raw material input costs, with margins of 20% in the quarter. Our in-basin manufacturing, rapid new product development pace, and steady field execution have driven market share gains while increased completions intensity and complexity, and growing interest in surfactant technology, have supported increased demand for our higher margin product offerings. Our Water Services segment also outperformed our expectations during the second quarter, with revenue growth of 4% and gross profit before D&A growth of 9% as compared to the first quarter of 2026. We have been pleased with the year-to-date performance of our last-mile water logistics and delivery business, and current macro trends remain supportive of sustained performance over the second half of the year. In summary, I am pleased with the ongoing strategic execution in our Water Infrastructure business, and our ability to grow and take market share in our Water Services and Chemical Technologies segments. Altogether we expect another strong quarter ahead, and on a consolidated basis, we anticipate Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter to be an estimated $90 – $94 million. With the support of a healthy balance sheet, we are well positioned to continue to invest in the attractive growth opportunities in front of us in order to deliver long-term value to our customers, employees, and stakeholders.
