    THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Aug. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Smart Sand, Inc. (NASDAQ: SND) (the “Company” or “Smart Sand”), a fully integrated frac and industrial sand supply and services company, a low-cost producer of high quality Northern White frac sand and a provider of industrial product solutions and proppant logistics solutions through both its in-basin transloading terminal and SmartSystems™ products and services, today announced results for the second quarter 2022.

    “Smart Sand continued to deliver improving operating and financial results in the second quarter,” stated Charles Young, Smart Sand’s Chief Executive Officer. “Activity improved at both our Utica and Oakdale facilities. Second quarter sales volumes of approximately 1.2 million tons are a quarterly record for the Company. Given strong commodity prices and our ability to continue to deliver sand to multiple basins across the US, we anticipate that we will sell record volumes in 2022. Additionally, our SmartSystems last mile offering had increased deployments in the second quarter, and our industrial sand sales increased sequentially. We expect to continue to deliver strong financial results in the second half of the year.”

    Second Quarter 2022 Results

    Revenues were $68.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $41.6 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $29.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. Revenues increased in the second quarter, compared to both the first quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2021, due primarily to higher sand sales volumes and a higher average sales price for our sand. Sand volumes and sales prices have increased due to improvement in the supply and demand fundamentals for frac sand. We believe that this improvement has been driven by increased prices in oil and natural gas, which has led to stronger oil and natural gas drilling and completions activity in 2022.

    Gross profit was $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $(2.0) million in the first quarter of 2022 and $(2.4) million in the second quarter of 2021. Gross profit improved in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to higher sales volumes and higher average sales prices for our sand relative to the cost to produce and deliver products to our customers.

    Net cash used in operating activities was $(2.3) million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $(8.7) million in the first quarter of 2022 and net cash provided by operating activities of $36.5 million in the second quarter of 2021. Lower net cash used in operating activities in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to improved financial results from higher sales volumes and higher sand prices. Net cash provided by operating activities was higher in the second quarter of 2021, as compared to the second quarter of 2022, due primarily to the Company’s receipt of a of $35.0 million cash payment from U.S. Well Services, LLC (“U.S. Well”) in settlement of certain litigation with U.S. Well.

    Tons sold were approximately 1,196,000 in the second quarter of 2022, compared to approximately 852,000 tons in the first quarter of 2022 and 767,000 tons in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 40% and increase of 56%, respectively. Sales volumes increased due to increased primarily due to increased market activity.

    For the second quarter of 2022, the Company had a net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $5.9 million, or $(0.14) per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022 and a net loss of $27.3 million, or $(0.65) per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. The improvement in net loss in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to an increase in sales volumes and higher average sales prices for our sand. The decrease in net loss year-over-year was primarily due to improved gross profit from higher sales volumes and higher pricing in the current quarter compared to the same period a year ago. The second quarter of 2021 also included a $19.7 million non-cash bad debt expense which was the difference between the $54.6 million accounts receivable balance that was subject to the Company’s litigation with U.S. Well and the $35.0 million cash payment received in settlement of this litigation.

    Contribution margin was $15.3 million, or $12.75 per ton sold, for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $4.3 million, or $4.99 per ton sold for the first quarter of 2022, and $3.5 million, or $4.55 per ton sold, for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in contribution margin and contribution margin per ton in the second quarter of 2022 compared to both the first quarter of 2022 and second quarter of 2021 was primarily due to higher sales volumes sold, and higher average prices on sand sold.

    Adjusted EBITDA was $9.2 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $(1.9) million for the first quarter of 2022 and $(21.5) million for the second quarter of 2021. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to higher sales volumes and higher average prices on sand sold. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to higher sales volumes, and higher average sales prices for our sand, as well as the non-cash bad debt expense recorded in the second quarter of 2021.

    Free cash flow was $(3.7) million for the second quarter of 2022. Net cash used in operating activities during this period was $(2.3) million, due primarily to increased working capital in support of our higher sales activity in the quarter. Capital expenditures were $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2022.

    Liquidity

    Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flow generated from operations and available borrowings under our ABL Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2022, cash on hand was $2.1 million and we had $16.0 million in undrawn availability on our ABL Credit Facility, with $3.0 million in borrowings outstanding. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had approximately $11.7 million in capital expenditures, including approximately $6.5 million related to the acquisition of the Blair facility. We currently estimate that full year 2022 capital and acquisition expenditures, including amounts relating to the acquisition of the Blair facility, will be between $20.0 million and $25.0 million, with capital expenditures for the remainder of 2022 primarily being used to support efficiency projects at our Oakdale and Utica facilities.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Contribution Margin

    We also use contribution margin, which we define as total revenues less costs of goods sold excluding depreciation, depletion and accretion of asset retirement obligations, to measure its financial and operating performance. Contribution margin excludes other operating expenses and income, including costs not directly associated with the operations of the Company’s business such as accounting, human resources, information technology, legal, sales and other administrative activities. 

    Historically, we have reported production costs and production cost per ton as non-GAAP financial measures. As we expand our logistics activities and continue to sell sand closer to the wellhead, our sand production costs will only be a portion of our overall cost structure.

    Gross profit is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to contribution margin. Contribution margin should not be considered an alternative to gross profit presented in accordance with GAAP. Because contribution margin may be defined differently by other companies in the industry, our definition of contribution margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. The following table presents a reconciliation of contribution margin to gross profit.

    Contribution margin per ton$12.75 $4.99  $4.55 
    Total tons sold 1,196  852   767 

    EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

    We define EBITDA as net income, plus: (i) depreciation, depletion and amortization expense; (ii) income tax expense (benefit); (iii) interest expense; and (iv) franchise taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, plus: (i) gain or loss on sale of fixed assets or discontinued operations; (ii) integration and transition costs associated with specified transactions; (iii) equity compensation; (iv) acquisition and development costs; (v) non-recurring cash charges related to restructuring, retention and other similar actions; (vi) earn-out, contingent consideration obligations and other acquisition and development costs; and (vii) non-cash charges and unusual or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors and commercial banks, to assess:

    • the financial performance of our assets without regard to the impact of financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis of our assets;
    • the viability of capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities;
    • our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures;
    • our operating performance as compared to those of other companies in our industry without regard to the impact of financing methods or capital structure; and
    • our debt covenant compliance, as Adjusted EBITDA is a key component of critical covenants to the ABL Credit Facility.

    We believe that our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA will provide useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. Net income is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to net income presented in accordance with GAAP. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income for each of the periods indicated.

    Free Cash Flow

    Free cash flow, which we define as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment, is used as a supplemental financial measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors and commercial banks, to measure the liquidity of our business.

    Net cash provided by operating activities is the GAAP measure most directly comparable to free cash flow. Free cash flow should not be considered an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP. Because free cash flows may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility.
