CEO Commentary
"Our third quarter results reflect the continued strength and profitability across our core business segments," said Mickey McKee, Kodiak's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Both our Compression Infrastructure and Power Infrastructure segments delivered exceptional financial results. In Compression Infrastructure, we delivered our third consecutive quarter of 70% adjusted gross margins, as increased operating efficiencies, driven by our focus on technology and cost discipline, offset inflationary pressures. In Power Infrastructure, our adjusted gross margin of 75.2% demonstrates the premium value customers place on reliable, scalable power solutions.
“The sizable sequential revenue increase in our Power Infrastructure segment is a direct reflection of the robust market demand for our assets — our gensets are realizing meaningful increases in pricing and, importantly, are staying on location longer, driving greater revenue visibility and returns. We recently achieved a significant milestone in our Power Infrastructure by commencing initial site work and beginning equipment setting at our data center project in West Texas, which will provide stable revenue in 2027. Given the high visible demand for large horsepower compression and the robust commercial pipeline of power projects, we remain highly confident in the long-term trajectory of both platforms and are focused on executing against our strategic priorities to drive sustainable value for our shareholders."

Full-Year 2026 Guidance
Kodiak is providing revised guidance for the full year 2026. The full year 2026 guidance below incorporates three quarters of the financial impact of the DPS acquisition given the April 1, 2026 closing date.

(1)The Company is unable to reconcile projected adjusted EBITDA to projected net income (loss) and discretionary cash flow to projected net cash provided by operating activities and projected adjusted gross margin percentage to projected gross margin percentage, the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, respectively, without unreasonable efforts because components of the calculations are inherently unpredictable, such as changes to current assets and liabilities, unknown future events, and estimating certain future GAAP measures. The inability to project certain components of the calculation would significantly affect the accuracy of the reconciliations.
(2)Discretionary cash flow guidance assumes no change to Secured Overnight Financing Rate futures.
(3)Other capital expenditures guidance excludes a $42.6 million non-cash finance lease addition related to one of our operational offices. Although recognized in the second quarter of 2026 capital expenditures, this non-cash activity is not reflected in the investing section of our statement of cash flows and is therefore excluded from our full-year capital expenditures guidance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are considered non-GAAP measures. Adjusted net income is defined as net income adjusted to exclude certain items, as applicable, such as (i) impairment of long-lived assets; (ii) severance expenses; (iii) transaction expenses; (iv) sales tax reserve; (v) loss on disposal of business; (vi) loss (gain) on derivatives; (vii) loss on extinguishment of debt; and (viii) the tax effects of the adjustments. Adjusted earnings per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA percentage are considered non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined net income before interest expense; income tax expense; and depreciation and amortization; plus certain items, as applicable, such as (i) impairment of long-lived assets; (ii) loss (gain) on derivatives; (iii) equity compensation expense; (iv) severance expenses; (v) transaction expenses; (vi) sales tax reserve; (vii) loss (gain) on disposal of business; (viii) loss (gain) on sale of assets; and (ix) loss on extinguishment of debt. We define adjusted EBITDA percentage as adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues.
Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA percentage are used as supplemental financial measures by our management and external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and other financial institutions, to assess: (i) the financial performance of our assets without regard to the impact of financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis of our assets; (ii) the viability of capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities; (iii) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to make debt payments and pay dividends; and (iv) our operating performance as compared to those of other companies in our industry without regard to the impact of financing methods and capital structure. We believe adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA percentage provide useful information because, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, they provide a more complete understanding of our performance than GAAP results alone. We also believe that external users of our financial statements benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating the results of our business. Reconciliations of adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA to net income and adjusted diluted EPS to GAAP diluted earnings per share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented below.
Adjusted gross margin is defined as revenue less cost of operations, exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted gross margin percentage is defined as adjusted gross margin divided by total revenues. We believe adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross margin percentage are useful as supplemental measures to investors of our operating profitability. Reconciliations of adjusted gross margin to gross margin are presented below.
Discretionary cash flow is considered a non-GAAP measure. Discretionary cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures; (ii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; and (iii) certain other expenses; plus certain items, as applicable, such as (w) severance expenses; (x) transaction expenses; and (y) sales tax reserve. We believe discretionary cash flow is a useful liquidity and performance measure and supplemental financial measure in assessing our ability to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, make growth capital expenditures and assess our operating performance. A reconciliation of discretionary cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities is presented below.
Free cash flow is considered a non-GAAP measure. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures; (ii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; (iii) certain other expenses; (iv) growth capital expenditures; and (v) other capital expenditures; plus certain items, as applicable, such as (w) severance expenses; (x) transaction expenses; (y) sales tax reserve; and (z) proceeds from sale of assets. We believe free cash flow is a liquidity measure and useful

supplemental financial measure in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments to grow our business and to service our debt. A reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities is presented below.
