Operational Insights
Mammoth's Well Completion Services division generated $2.2 million in revenues during the quarter, a sharp decrease from the $20.3 million reported in the same period of 2023. This downturn was primarily due to the lack of active pressure-pumping fleets, as the company did not have any fleets operational during the quarter.
Infrastructure Services Performance
Conversely, the Infrastructure Services division maintained stable performance, generating $26.0 million in revenue, slightly lower than $26.7 million in Q3 of the previous year. With 77 active crews, operating capabilities remained robust, despite market fluctuations.
Natural Sand Proppant Services and Additional Segments
The Natural Sand Proppant Services segment faced a decline as well, with revenues of $4.9 million compared to $10.6 million in Q3 2023. In the segment, the company sold around 163,000 tons of sand, with an average sale price of $22.89 per ton. This contrasts with the sale of 352,000 tons at $30.18 per ton during the same quarter last year.
Mammoth's drilling services division reported earnings of $1.6 million for the third quarter, down from $2.3 million last year. The company's other services, including aviation, equipment rentals, remote accommodations, and equipment manufacturing, managed to increase revenue from $6.0 million to $7.0 million compared to the previous year.
Cost Management and Expenditures
In terms of expenses, selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) totaled $8.7 million, a notable improvement from $10.4 million reported in Q3 2023. This decline showcases efficient cost management strategies in operation.
Financial Obligations and Future Outlook
