Mammoth Energy Services, Inc. reported it made a slight improvement in fourth quarter total revenue but also had an increase in its losses.
The Oklahoma City energy firm released the financial results showing total revenue of $53.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $52.8 million for the same quarter of 2023 and $40.0 million for the third quarter of 2024. Total revenue for the full year of 2024 was $187.9 million compared to $309.5 million in 2023.
Phil Lancaster, Chief Executive Officer of Mammoth commented, “There were signs of improvement in our results for the fourth quarter. Despite typical seasonality and budget exhaustion, we experienced increased utilization which helped drive sequential improvement. Although we expect 2025 activity to be relatively steady, we have line of sight for potential upside performance compared to 2024 driven by incremental natural gas-related demand, which may further contribute to improved financial results. While these tailwinds may not materialize until later this year, we are seeing elevated activity from our customers that will lead to additional utilization improvements in the first quarter.
“Looking ahead, we expect to continue building upon our recent positive momentum in 2025. Our focus will be on operational execution, efficiency and unlocking value within our business. We have a debt-free balance sheet with approximately $86 million in cash today (inclusive of $21 million restricted cash) that we plan to strategically utilize to make accretive investments for future growth in Mammoth. We believe there are numerous opportunities to unlock value for our shareholders, and we look forward to sharing these developments with you in the coming quarters.”
