“Keane executed exceptionally well in the face of first quarter transitory challenges, stemming from extreme winter weather in late 2017 and early 2018,” said James Stewart, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Keane. “These issues impacted work schedules early in the quarter, and drove stresses on the delivery of frac sand throughout the period. The first quarter exemplified the importance of our long-standing model of partnering with high-quality customers under dedicated agreements. This strategy, combined with our leading supply chain and supplier relationships, limited the impact to our customers and financials. With these transitory factors largely resolved, we are excited to continue on our growth trajectory, supported by our existing portfolio and newbuild expansion program.”
“Despite transitory headwinds, our team continued to execute, delivering first quarter revenue and annualized Adjusted Gross Profit per fleet in-line with the ranges we communicated in February,” said Greg Powell, President and Chief Financial Officer of Keane. “Efficiency and profitability improved as we exited the quarter, driven by the dissipation of transitory issues. Normalizing for transitory impacts, revenue totaled approximately

“We are focused on generating free cash flow and maintaining a conservative balance sheet,” said Greg Powell. “We are excited to have our repurchase program in place and given our expectation for further growth and profitability, remain committed to returning value to shareholders.”
Newbuild Update
Keane previously announced the order for 150,000 newbuild hydraulic horsepower, representing three additional hydraulic fracturing fleets. The first of its three newbuild hydraulic fracturing fleets and associated wireline equipment will be deployed in the Marcellus / Utica basin in late-May 2018, earlier than our previous expectation of by the end of second quarter of 2018, increasing Keane’s total hydraulic fracturing fleets to 27.
Today, Keane is announcing that it has entered into a new dedicated agreement for the second of its three newbuild hydraulic fracturing fleets. The fleet and associated wireline equipment will be deployed in the Permian by the end of the second quarter of 2018, bringing Keane’s total hydraulic fracturing fleets to 28.
Dedicated agreements for Keane’s first two newbuild fleets reflect annualized Adjusted Gross Profit per fleet of greater than

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Items
Keane has included both financial measures compiled in accordance with GAAP and certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Profit and ratios based on these financial measures. These measurements provide supplemental information which Keane believes is useful to analysts and investors to evaluate its ongoing results of operations, when considered alongside GAAP measures such as net income and operating income. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the financial impact of items management does not consider in assessing Keane’s ongoing operating performance, and thereby facilitate review of Keane’s operating performance on a period-to-period basis. Other companies may have different capital structures, and comparability to Keane’s results of operations may be impacted by the effects of acquisition accounting on its depreciation and amortization. As a result of the effects of these factors and factors specific to other companies, Keane believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Profit provide helpful information to analysts and investors to facilitate a comparison of its operating performance to that of other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to eliminate the impact of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, along with certain items management does not consider in assessing ongoing performance. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, further adjusted to eliminate the impact of all activities in the Corporate segment, such as selling, general and administrative expenses, along with cost of services that management does not consider in assessing ongoing performance.
