ProPetro Reports Narrow Profit Amid Permian Slowdown, Expands PROPWR Power Push
Event summary
- ProPetro reported $1.3B in full-year 2025 revenue with net income of just $1M ($0.01 per diluted share).
- Fourth-quarter revenue dipped to $290M from $294M prior quarter, but Adjusted EBITDA rose 18% to $51M.
- PROPWR division expanded committed capacity to ~240MW with orders for 550MW of equipment by year-end 2027.
- Company secured $350M lease financing facility and raised $163M in equity offering to support PROPWR growth.
The big picture
ProPetro's results reflect broader Permian Basin challenges, with OPEC+ production increases and tariff impacts creating market uncertainty. The company is positioning itself as a next-generation operator through its PROPWR division, targeting data center and industrial clients beyond traditional oilfield services. With $1.3B in annual revenue but razor-thin profitability, the strategic tension lies in balancing legacy completions cash flow with high-growth power generation investments.
