Shares of ProFrac Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: ACDC) plummeted 5.04% in Wednesday's trading session following the release of the company's first-quarter 2025 financial results. The oilfield services provider reported a net loss despite a significant increase in revenue, amid challenging market conditions in the oil and gas industry.
ProFrac announced a total revenue of $600.3 million for Q1 2025, representing a 32% increase from the previous quarter. However, the company reported a net loss of $15.4 million, compared to a net loss of $101.7 million in Q4 2024. The improvement in the bottom line was not enough to offset investor concerns about the company's profitability in a volatile energy market.
Matt Wilks, ProFrac's Executive Chairman, highlighted the industry headwinds, stating, "Our industry faces headwinds from tariff-induced uncertainty and OPEC+'s production increase, which pressured commodity prices early in the second quarter and have clouded the forward outlook." He added that some customers have become more selective with their oil-directed completion schedules, focusing on cash flow optimization while awaiting greater clarity on oil supply and demand dynamics. However, Wilks noted that gas market dynamics remain relatively favorable, with continued inbound requests for services in the second half of 2025 and early 2026.
