"2024 is off to a strong start marked by steady growth and solid execution in our core contract compression business," stated Mickey McKee, Kodiak's founder and Chief Executive Officer. "Our focus on the Permian and other liquids-rich, associated gas basins allowed us to deliver strong first quarter results despite soft natural gas prices, and we stand to benefit from the coming growth in U.S. natural gas supply to meet demand from LNG projects scheduled to come online in the near term. We're also excited about the evolving prospects for U.S. natural gas demand to support the build-out in data centers to support the increasing adoption of artificial intelligence.
"With the closing of the CSI Compressco acquisition, Kodiak now has the largest contract compression fleet in the industry and a broadened suite of offerings to help our customers meet their compression infrastructure needs. We're pleased to announce revised 2024 guidance reflecting our expectations for the combined company, and we've made great progress towards realizing the significant synergies we see in the combination. Our capital allocation strategy remains focused on disciplined growth in our compression fleet combined with an attractive return of capital to investors through our dividend."

Full-Year 2024 Guidance
Kodiak is providing revised guidance for the full year 2024. The full-year 2024 guidance below incorporates three quarters of the financial impact of the CSI acquisition given the April 1, 2024, closing date. All amounts below are in thousands.
Full-Year 2024 Guidance
Low High
Total revenues $1,125,000 $1,175,000
Adjusted EBITDA (1) $580,000 $610,000
Discretionary Cash Flow (1)(2) $360,000 $390,000
Capital Expenditures:
Growth capital expenditures (3) $215,000 $235,000
Maintenance capital expenditures $55,000 $65,000
(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, 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 assumes no change to Secured Overnight Financing Rate futures.
(3) Growth capital expenditures exclude approximately $35 million in extraordinary capital expenditures related to the acquisition of CSI, including safety and emissions upgrades to the acquired fleet,
facilities rationalization and vehicle and rolling stock purchases.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, net: income tax expense (benefit); and depreciation and amortization; plus (i) loss on extinguishment of debt; (ii) loss (gain) on derivatives; (iii) equity compensation expense; (iv) transaction expenses; (v) loss (gain) on sale of assets; and (vi) impairment of compression equipment. Adjusted EBITDA Percentage is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. 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 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Percentage provide useful information to investors 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 EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and net cash provided by operating activities 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 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 defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures;(ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; and (iv) certain other expenses; plus (x) cash loss on extinguishment of debt; and (y) transaction expenses. We believe Discretionary Cash Flow is a useful liquidity and performance measure and supplemental financial measure for us and our investors in assessing our ability to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, make growth capital expenditures and assess our operating performance. Reconciliations of Discretionary Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less (i) maintenance capital expenditures;(ii) gain on sale of capital assets; (iii) certain changes in operating assets and liabilities; (iv) certain other expenses; and (v) net growth capital expenditures; plus (x) cash loss on extinguishment of debt; (y) transaction expenses; and (z) proceeds from sale of capital assets. We believe Free Cash Flow is a liquidity measure and useful supplemental financial measure for us and investors in assessing our ability to pursue business opportunities and investments to grow our business and to service our debt. Reconciliations of Free Cash Flow to net income and net cash provided by operating activities are presented below.
