Recent Accounting Developments

Accounting Standards Updates Implemented

Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires disclosures of significant expenses for each reportable segment, as well as certain other disclosures to help investors understand how the CODM evaluates segment expenses and operating results. ASU 2023-07 allows disclosure of multiple measures of segment profitability if those measures are used to allocate resources and assess performance. We adopted ASU 2023-07 retrospectively during the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 17 (“Segments”) for further details.

Business Combinations – Joint Venture Formations

In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, to reduce diversity in practice and provide decision-useful information to a joint venture’s investors by requiring that a joint venture apply a new basis of accounting upon formation. By applying a new basis of accounting, a joint venture will recognize and initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value, with exceptions to fair value measurement that are consistent with the business combinations guidance, on the date of formation. ASU 2023-05 is effective prospectively for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Additionally, a joint venture that was formed before January 1, 2025, may elect to apply the amendments retrospectively if it has sufficient information to do so. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period in which financial statements have not been issued or been made available for issuance, either prospectively or retrospectively. We adopted ASU 2023-05 during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and its adoption had no impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. 11

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which will require tabular disclosures about certain expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement, as well as disclosures about selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Entities are required to adopt ASU 2024-03 prospectively with the option for retrospective application. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which will require significant additional disclosures, primarily focused on the disclosure of income taxes paid and the rate reconciliation table. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and should be applied on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. We are assessing and modifying our systems and processes to comply with our future adoption of ASU 2023-09.

3. Business Transactions

NGCS Acquisition

On May 1, 2025, we completed the NGCS Acquisition, whereby we acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in NGCS, including a fleet of approximately 326,000 operating horsepower and a 18,000 horsepower backlog of contracted new equipment, for aggregate total consideration of $351.5 million. Total consideration consisted of $298.5 million in cash, of which we paid $267.0 million to NGCSI sellers and $31.5 million to NGCSE sellers, and approximately 2.3 million shares of common stock issued to NGCSE sellers with an NGCS acquisition date fair value of $53.0 million. The cash portion of the purchase price was funded with borrowings under the Credit Facility. The purchase price paid is subject to customary post-closing adjustments in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreements.

The NGCS Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their fair value on the NGCS acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price, which is subject to certain adjustments, was based upon preliminary valuations. Our estimates and assumptions are subject to change upon the completion of management’s review of the final valuations. We are in the process of finalizing valuations related to property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible assets, deferred tax liabilities, tax contingencies and goodwill. Post-closing adjustments to the purchase price could impact future depreciation and amortization as well as income tax expense. The final valuation of net assets acquired is expected to be completed as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the NCGS acquisition date.

Purchase price	$	267,008	$	84,458	$	351,466

Goodwill

The amount of goodwill resulting from the NGCS Acquisition is attributable to the expansion of our services in the Permian Basin where we currently operate and was allocated to our contract operations segment. The goodwill recorded is considered to have an indefinite life and will be reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. None of the goodwill recorded for the NGCS Acquisition is expected to be deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Tax Contingency and Indemnification

In connection with the NGCS Acquisition, the sellers agreed to indemnify us for certain non-income tax and environmental contingencies up to $11.4 million as of the NGCS acquisition date. Dependent upon facts and circumstances, the sellers’ indemnification obligation may be reduced over a period of four years from the NGCS acquisition date but may also be extended until the resolution of claims timely submitted to the sellers. We are currently assessing the tax and environmental contingencies and respective indemnification assets.

Results of Operations

The results of operations attributable to the NGCS Acquisition have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements as part of our contract operations segment since the NGCS acquisition date. Revenue attributable to the assets acquired from the NGCS acquisition date through June 30, 2025 was $13.2 million. We are unable to provide earnings attributable to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed since the NGCS acquisition date, as we do not prepare full stand-alone earnings reports for those assets and liabilities. 13

The NGCS Acquisition is presented in this unaudited pro forma financial information as though the acquisition occurred as of January 1, 2024, and reflects the following:

●	the effects of the NGCSI employee retention and other compensation-related arrangements associated with the NGCS Acquisition;
●	the application of our accounting policies and adjusting the results of NGCS to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets had been applied from January 1, 2024;
---	---
●	the interest expense resulting from borrowings under the Credit Facility used to fund the cash portion of the purchase price;
---	---
●	the amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement;
---	---
●	the exclusion of $4.0 million and $6.9 million of nonrecurring financial advisory, legal, audit and other professional fees incurred related to the NGCS Acquisition and recorded to transaction-related costs in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The six months ended June 30, 2024 pro forma earnings were adjusted to reflect these charges; and
---	---
●	the income tax effects of the adjustments based on the estimated blended statutory tax rate of 23%.

TOPS Acquisition

On August 30, 2024, we completed the TOPS Acquisition, whereby we acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in TOPS, including a fleet of approximately 580,000 horsepower, including approximately 530,000 operating horsepower, for aggregate consideration consisting of $868.7 million in cash and approximately 6.9 million shares of common stock with a TOPS acquisition date fair value of $139.1 million. The cash portion of the purchase price was funded with proceeds from the July 2024 Equity Offering, the 2032 Notes offering and borrowings under the Credit Facility. In accordance with the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, customary post-closing adjustments were made during the fourth quarter of 2024, resulting in a $0.4 million reduction to the purchase price.

The TOPS Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their fair value on the TOPS acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred over those fair values is recorded as goodwill.

The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation based on the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the TOPS acquisition date:


(in thousands)

Goodwill

The amount of goodwill resulting from the TOPS Acquisition is attributable to the expansion of our services in the Permian Basin where we currently operate and was allocated to our contract operations segment. The goodwill recorded is considered to have an indefinite life and will be reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. All of the goodwill recorded for the TOPS Acquisition is expected to be deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Tax Contingency and Indemnification Asset

We recorded a non-income tax based contingency of $4.3 million and a corresponding indemnification asset of $4.3 million based on facts existing on the TOPS acquisition date. The tax contingency arose from pre-acquisition activities of TOPS. As part of the TOPS Acquisition, the sellers agreed to indemnify us for certain tax contingencies up to $21.6 million as of the TOPS acquisition date. Dependent upon facts and circumstances, the sellers’ indemnification obligation may be reduced over a period of five years from the TOPS acquisition date but may also be extended until the resolution of claims timely submitted to the sellers. 15

Valuation Methodologies

The valuation methodologies and significant inputs for fair value measurements associated with our business acquisitions are detailed by significant asset class below. The fair value measurements for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 measurements.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is primarily comprised of natural gas and electric motor drive compression equipment that will depreciate on a straight-line basis over an estimated average remaining useful life of 15 years for the NGCS Acquisition and 25 years for the TOPS Acquisition. The fair value of the property, plant and equipment was determined using both the cost and market approach. For most of the compression equipment, we estimated the replacement cost using the direct cost method by evaluating recent purchases of similar assets or published data, then adjusting the replacement cost for physical deterioration and functional and economic obsolescence, as applicable. For certain compression equipment, we then considered the market approach by comparing our estimated dollar per horsepower to market comparables and market participant assumptions and adjusted as necessary.

Other fixed assets were valued using the indirect cost method, whereby we applied asset-specific trend information using published indexes to calculate the estimated replacement cost of assets that were identified to be reflected at historical cost. Other assets were depreciated based on published normal useful life estimates and prior experience with similar assets.

Intangible Assets

The intangible assets consist of customer relationships and trade names that have estimated useful lives of 12 years and five years, respectively. The amount of intangible assets and their associated useful life were determined based on the period over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to our future cash flows. 16

Table of Contents

Archrock, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets related to customer relationships was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method, which is a specific application of the discounted cash flow method, an income approach, whereby we estimated and then discounted the future cash flows of the intangible asset by adjusting overall business revenue for attrition, obsolescence, cost of sales, operating expenses, taxes and the required returns attributable to other contributory assets acquired. Significant estimates made in arriving at expected future cash flows included our expected customer attrition rate and the amount of earnings attributable to the assets. To discount the estimated future cash flows, we utilized a discount rate that was at a premium to our WACC to reflect the less liquid nature of the customer relationships relative to the tangible assets acquired.

The trade name fair market value was measured using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach, whereby we calculated the royalty savings by estimating a reasonable royalty rate that a third party would negotiate in a licensing agreement expressed as a percentage of total revenue involving a trade name. The revenue related to the trade name was multiplied by the selected royalty rate over the estimated expected useful life of the trade name to arrive at the royalty savings. The royalty savings were tax effected and discounted to present value using a discount rate commensurate with the risk profile of the trade name relative to our WACC and the return on the other acquired assets.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

We determine at the inception of each arrangement whether an entity in which we have made an investment or in which we have other variable interests is considered a VIE. We are the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have the power to direct activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We consider a variety of factors in identifying the entity that holds the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, including evaluating the nature of relationships and activities of the parties involved. We consolidate a VIE if we are the primary beneficiary. If we are not the primary beneficiary in a VIE, we account for the investment or other variable interests in a VIE in accordance with applicable GAAP. We periodically reassess whether any changes in an entity’s capital structure or our relationship with the entity affect our VIE determination and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary.

Table of Contents

Archrock, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Investments in which we are deemed to exert significant influence, but not control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, except in cases where the fair value option is elected. For such investments where we have elected the fair value option, the election is irrevocable and is applied on an investment-by-investment basis at initial recognition.

For ownership interests that are not accounted for under the equity method and that do not have readily determinable fair values, we have elected the fair value measurement alternative to record these investments at cost minus impairment, if any, including adjustments for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Investments in equity securities measured using the fair value measurement alternative are reviewed for impairment or observable price changes in orderly transactions each reporting period.

Investment in ECOTEC

In April 2022, we agreed to acquire for cash a 25% equity interest in ECOTEC, a company specializing in methane emissions detection, monitoring and management. We have elected the fair value option to account for this investment. Changes in the fair value of this investment are recognized in other (income) expense, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, however during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we did not recognize unrealized gains or losses related to the change in fair value of our investment. See Note 15 (“Fair Value Measurements”) for further details. As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our ownership interest in ECOTEC was 25%, which is included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Investment in Ionada

In November 2023, we agreed and made an initial investment of $3.8 million, to serve as the lead investor in a series A preferred financing round for Ionada, a global carbon capture technology company committed to reducing GHG emissions and creating a sustainable future. Ionada has developed a post-combustion carbon capture solution to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from various small to mid-sized industrial emitters in the energy, marine and e-fuels industries, among others. We have elected the fair value measurement alternative to account for this investment. See Note 15 (“Fair Value Measurements”) for further details.

On November 19, 2024, subject to the same terms and conditions of our initial investment, we invested an additional $1.2 million and as a result, the carrying value of our investment in Ionada at both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $5.5 million, including cumulative transaction costs of $0.5 million, and is included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had a fully diluted ownership equity interest in Ionada of 12%. Subject to certain contractual conditions, we may invest on the same terms and conditions as the initial and secondary investments, $1.3 million in November 2025 and $4.8 million prior to July 2026, for a fully diluted ownership interest of 15% and 24%, respectively.

Investment in FGC Holdco

On October 1, 2024, we, together with ColdStream, entered into a limited liability agreement with FGC Holdco, a company that designs, manufactures and sells, through distributors, MaCH4 NRS equipment for the global oil and gas market. As of the effective date of the agreement, FGC Holdco had initial authorized capital of 1.0 million units, with 68% of its units issued to ColdStream and 32% of its units issued to us at a cost of $0.001 per unit. Subject to certain contractual provisions, we are obligated to fund, as capital contributions, our proportionate share of FGC Holdco’s general, administrative and operational costs and expenses. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we invested $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, in FGC Holdco, and as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying value of our investment in FGC Holdco, including transaction costs of $0.2 million, was $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

We determined FGC Holdco is a VIE over which we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance and therefore are not the primary beneficiary. The board of directors of FGC Holdco have control over the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance, and while we have voting rights through board participation, we do not have the ability to control board decisions. We apply the equity method of accounting to account for this investment. The carrying value of our equity investment is impacted by our share of investee income or loss, distributions, amortization or accretion of basis differences and other-than-temporary impairments. 18

Table of Contents

Archrock, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

As of June 30, 2025, we had a $0.3 million basis difference between the cost of our investment and our proportionate share of the carrying value of FGC Holdco’s underlying net assets. The basis difference is primarily attributed to intangible assets and is being amortized over the estimated 20-year useful life. Basis differences are updated as needed to reflect the impact of additional capital contributions. We recognized a loss of $0.2 million related to our investment in FGC Holdco for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, which is included in equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliate, net of tax, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The investment is included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cash contributions are included in the investing activities section of our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. See Note 16 (“Related Party Transactions”) for further details.

Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On May 16, 2025, we amended our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to increase the borrowing capacity of the Credit Facility from $1.1 billion to $1.5 billion and to provide for the ability for the borrowers to request additional increases in the aggregate commitments under the Credit Facility to a total amount not to exceed $2.3 billion (with any increase being at the discretion of the lenders and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement).

During the second quarter of 2025, we incurred $1.8 million in transaction costs related to the Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which were included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Facility.

The Credit Facility matures in May 2028 unless renewed or amended prior to that date. As of June 30, 2025, there were $3.0 million letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility and the applicable margin on borrowings outstanding was 2.1%. The weighted-average annual interest rate on the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility was 6.7% and 6.8% at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We incurred $0.4 million of commitment fees on the daily unused amount of the Credit Facility during both the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $1.0 million and $0.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. 19

As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants under our Credit Facility. Additionally, all undrawn capacity on our Credit Facility was available for borrowings as of June 30, 2025.

First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On August 28, 2024, we amended our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to, among other things:

●	increase the borrowing capacity of the Credit Facility from $750.0 million to $1.1 billion;
●	increase the portion of the Credit Facility available for the issuance of swing line loans from $75.0 million to $110.0 million;
---	---
●	increase the cash dominion trigger threshold amount from $75.0 million to $110.0 million;
---	---
●	add certain financial institutions as lenders under the Credit Facility;
---	---
●	join a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Archrock Services, L.P. as a guarantor and grantor under the Credit Facility; and
---	---
●	modify certain other covenants to which we are subject.
---	---

During the third quarter of 2024, we incurred $2.6 million in transaction costs related to the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which were included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Facility.

2032 Notes

On August 26, 2024, we completed a private offering of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due September 2032 and received net proceeds of $690.0 million after deducting issuance costs. The $10.0 million of issuance costs were recorded as deferred financing costs within long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations over the term of the notes. A portion of the net proceeds were used to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the TOPS Acquisition, the 2027 Notes Tender Offer and to repay borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility.

The 2032 Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the U.S. except pursuant to a registration exemption under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. We offered and issued the 2032 Notes only to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain non-U.S. persons outside the U.S. in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The 2032 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by us, and by all of our existing subsidiaries, other than Archrock Partners Finance Corp., which is the issuer of the 2032 Notes. The 2032 Notes and the guarantees rank equally in right of payment with all of our and the guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness.

We may, at our option, redeem all of part of the 2032 Notes at any time on or after September 1, 2027, at specified redemption prices, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to September 1, 2027, we may redeem up to 40% of the 2032 Notes at specified redemption prices and make-whole premiums, plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

2027 Notes Tender Offer

In connection with the offering of the 2032 Notes, we completed a concurrent cash tender offer of $202.0 million, which reflects approximately 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the tendered 2027 Notes and $0.2 million of agent and legal fees. On the date of tender, the net carrying value of the tendered 2027 Notes was $198.8 million and during the third quarter of 2024, we recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $3.2 million in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. 20

Commitments and Contingencies

Insurance Matters

Our business can be hazardous, involving unforeseen circumstances such as uncontrollable flows of natural gas or well fluids and fires or explosions. As is customary in our industry, we review our safety equipment and procedures and carry insurance against some, but not all, risks of our business. Our insurance coverage includes property damage, general liability and commercial automobile liability and other coverage we believe is appropriate. We believe that our insurance coverage is customary for the industry and adequate for our business, however; losses and liabilities not covered by insurance would increase our costs.

Additionally, we are substantially self-insured for workers’ compensation and employee group health claims in view of the relatively high per-incident deductibles we absorb under our insurance arrangements for these risks. Losses up to the deductible amounts are estimated and accrued based upon known facts, historical trends and industry averages. We are also self-insured for property damage to our offshore assets.

Tax Matters

We are subject to a number of state and local taxes that are not income-based. As many of these taxes are subject to audit by the taxing authorities, it is possible that an audit could result in additional taxes due. We accrue for such additional taxes when we determine that it is probable that we have incurred a liability and we can reasonably estimate the amount of the liability. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $7.5 million and $8.6 million, respectively, accrued for the outcomes of non-income-based tax audits. We do not expect that the ultimate resolutions of these audits will result in a material variance from the amounts accrued. We do not accrue for unasserted claims for tax audits unless we believe the assertion of a claim is probable, it is probable that it will be determined that the claim is owed and we can reasonably estimate the claim or range of the claim. We believe the likelihood is remote that the impact of potential unasserted claims from non-income-based tax audits could be material to our condensed consolidated financial position, but it is possible that the resolution of future audits could be material to our condensed consolidated results of operations or cash flows.

As of December 31, 2024, $0.6 million of the tax contingencies mentioned above related to audits that had advanced to the contested hearing phase, and by June 30, 2025, these audits are now closed. As of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, $4.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively, of the tax contingencies mentioned above had an offsetting indemnification asset.

Litigation and Claims

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, we believe that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and arbitration proceedings, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends.

Stockholders’ Equity

NGCS Acquisition

On May 1, 2025, we completed the NGCS Acquisition and issued approximately 2.3 million shares of common stock to NGCSE sellers as part of the acquisition purchase price. The NGCS acquisition date fair value was $53.0 million and is reflected in common stock and additional paid-in capital in our condensed consolidated statements of equity. See Note 3 (“Business Transactions”) for further details. 21

TOPS Acquisition

On August 30, 2024, we completed the TOPS Acquisition and issued approximately 6.9 million shares of common stock to the sellers as part of the acquisition purchase price. The TOPS acquisition date fair value was $139.1 million and is reflected in common stock and additional paid-in capital in our condensed consolidated statements of equity. See Note 3 (“Business Transactions”) for further details.

July 2024 Equity Offering

On July 24, 2024, we sold, pursuant to a public underwriting offering, approximately 12.7 million shares, including approximately 1.7 million shares pursuant to an over-allotment option. Archrock received net proceeds of $255.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. Proceeds from this equity offering were used to fund a portion of the TOPS Acquisition.

Share Repurchases

Share Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program in April 2023 that allowed us to repurchase and retire up to $50.0 million of outstanding common stock over a 12-month period. An extension of the Share Repurchase Program was approved by our Board of Directors in April 2024 for an additional 24-month period and replenished the amount of shares authorized for repurchase, resulting in available capacity of $50.0 million at that time. In April 2025, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the Share Repurchase Program by an additional $50.0 million through April 27, 2026.

As of June 30, 2025, available capacity under the Share Repurchase Program was $58.9 million. Under the Share Repurchase Program, shares of our common stock may be repurchased periodically, including in the open market, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, at any time. Through June 30, 2025, we had repurchased 2,719,315 common shares at an average price of $18.84 per share for an aggregate of $51.2 million.

On June 30, 2025, we retired 2,719,315 shares that had been previously repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program.

Shares Withheld to Cover

The 2020 Plan allows us to withhold shares upon vesting of restricted stock at the then-current market price to cover taxes required to be withheld on the vesting date. 22

We do not disclose the aggregate transaction price for the remaining performance obligations for aftermarket services as there are no contracts with customers with an original contract term that is greater than one year.

Receivables from Contracts with Customers

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our receivables from contracts with customers, net of allowance for credit losses, were $171.6 million and $126.3 million, respectively. 24

Contract Liabilities

Freight billings to customers for the transport of compression assets, customer-specified modifications of compression assets and milestone billings on aftermarket services often result in a contract liability. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our contract liabilities were $11.7 million and $10.0 million, respectively, which is included in other long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we deferred revenue of $9.6 million and recognized $7.8 million as revenue. The revenue recognized during the period primarily related to freight billings and milestone billings on aftermarket services.

Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairment

We review long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangibles that are being amortized, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, including remeasurement of the disposal group classified as held for sale and the removal of compressors from our active fleet, indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

Compression Fleet

We periodically review the future deployment of our idle compression assets for units that are not of the type, configuration, condition, make or model that are cost efficient to maintain and operate. Based on these reviews, we determine that certain idle compressors should be retired from the active fleet. The retirement of these units from the active fleet triggers a review of these assets for impairment, and as a result of our review, we may record an asset impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value. The fair value of each unit is estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use.

In connection with our review of our idle compression assets, we evaluate for impairment idle units that were culled from our fleet in prior years and are available for sale. Based on that review, we may reduce the expected proceeds from disposition and record additional impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value.

The following table presents the results of our compression fleet impairment review as recorded in our contract operations segment:


		Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended

Assets Held For Sale

In connection with the classification of the disposal group as assets held for sale as of June 30, 2025, we adjusted the carrying value of the disposal group to its estimated fair value less costs to sell and recorded a write-down of $8.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, which is included in long-lived and other asset impairment in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 18 (“Assets Held for Sale”) for further details.

Restructuring Charges

During the second quarter of 2025, management approved and initiated a plan to exit certain facilities that were no longer deemed economical for our business, and in the second quarter of 2025, we incurred $0.1 million of costs to exit these facilities. The property disposal costs incurred under the above restructuring plan were recorded to restructuring charges in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We expect to incur additional restructuring charges of $1.0 million to $2.0 million over the next twelve months related to these restructuring activities.

During the first quarter of 2025, management approved and executed a plan to exit a facility no longer deemed economical for our business, and in the first quarter of 2025, we incurred $0.7 million of costs to exit this facility. The severance and property disposal costs incurred under the above restructuring plan were recorded to restructuring charges in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We do not expect to incur additional restructuring charges related to these restructuring activities.

Income Taxes

OB3 Tax Law

The OB3 Tax Law made permanent certain key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including reinstating: the add-back for depreciation and amortization in the business interest expense limitation, the allowance for 100% bonus depreciation, 26

Table of Contents

Archrock, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

and a full expensing option for domestic research and experimental expenditures. We are currently evaluating the impact of the OB3 Tax Law on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Effective Tax Rate

The year-to-date effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 differed significantly from our statutory rate primarily due to state taxes, unrecognized tax benefits and the limitation on executive compensation offset by the benefit from equity-settled long-term incentive compensation.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

As of June 30, 2025, we believe it is reasonably possible that $3.7 million of our unrecognized tax benefits, including penalties, interest and discontinued operations, will be reduced prior to June 30, 2026 due to the settlement of audits or the expiration of statutes of limitations or both. However, due to the uncertain and complex application of the tax regulations, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters may result in liabilities that could materially differ from this estimate.

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, basic earnings per common share is determined by dividing net income, after deducting amounts allocated to participating securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Participating securities include unvested restricted stock and stock-settled restricted stock units that have nonforfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid. During periods of net loss, only distributed earnings (dividends) are allocated to participating securities, as participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to participate in our undistributed losses.

Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental common stock equivalents attributed to outstanding performance-based restricted stock units and stock to be issued pursuant to our ESPP unless their effect would have been anti-dilutive. 27

The following table shows the calculation of net income attributable to common stockholders, which is used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share, potential shares of common stock that were included in computing diluted earnings per common share and the potential shares of common stock issuable that were excluded from computing diluted earnings per common share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Fair Value Measurements

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Investment in ECOTEC

As of June 30, 2025, we owned a 25% equity interest in ECOTEC in which we have elected the fair value option to account for this investment. See Note 6 (“Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates”) for further details. There were no purchases of equity interests or unrealized changes in the fair value of our investment in ECOTEC recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 or 2024. The fair value of our investment in ECOTEC at both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $14.7 million.

The fair value determination of this investment primarily consisted of unobservable inputs, which creates uncertainty in the measurement of fair value as of the reporting date. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, which was valued through an average of an income approach (discounted cash flow method) and a market approach (guideline public company method), are the WACC and the revenue multiples. Significant increases (decreases) in these inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. This fair value measurement is classified as Level 3. 28

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Investment in Ionada

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had a fully diluted ownership equity interest in Ionada of 12%, in which we have elected the fair value measurement alternative to account for this investment. See Note 6 (“Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates”) for further details. The carrying value of our investment in Ionada at both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $5.5 million, which includes cumulative transaction costs of $0.5 million. There were no upward adjustments, impairments or downward adjustments to the carrying value of the investment as of June 30, 2025.

Compressors

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded nonrecurring fair value measurements related to our idle compressors. Our estimate of the compressors’ fair value was primarily based on the expected net sale proceeds compared with other fleet units we recently sold and/or a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. We discounted the expected proceeds, net of selling and other carrying costs, using a weighted-average disposal period of four years. These fair value measurements are classified as Level 3.

The fair value of our impaired compression fleet was as follows:


(in thousands)				June 30, 2025			December 31, 2024
Impaired compression fleet				$	449		$	1,048

The significant unobservable inputs used to develop the above fair value measurements were weighted by the relative fair value of the compressors being measured. Additional quantitative information related to our significant unobservable inputs was as follows:


	****	Range	****	Weighted Average ^(1)^
Estimated net sale proceeds:
As of June 30, 2025		$0 - $241 per horsepower		$50 per horsepower
As of December 31, 2024		$0 - $188 per horsepower		$46 per horsepower
(1)	Calculated based on an estimated discount for market liquidity of 23% and 25% as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
---	---

See Note 11 (“Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairments”) for further details.

Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of our cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying amount of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate. The measurement of the fair value of these outstanding borrowings is a Level 3 measurement.

The fair value of our fixed rate debt is estimated using yields observable in active markets, which are Level 2 inputs, and was as follows:


(in thousands)	****	June 30, 2025		****	December 31, 2024
Carrying amount of fixed rate debt ^(1)^		$	1,790,832		$	1,790,051
Fair value of fixed rate debt			1,817,000			1,796,000

(1) Carrying amounts are shown net of unamortized premium and deferred financing costs. See Note 7 (“Long-Term Debt”). 29

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Assets held for sale

As of June 30, 2025, we adjusted the carrying value of the disposal group to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. The determination of the fair value was based on the indicative sales value of $71.0 million from Flowco pursuant to the asset purchase agreement entered into on July 1, 2025 and unobservable inputs which are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. See Note 18 (“Assets Held for Sale”) for further details.

Related Party Transactions

ECOTEC

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we made purchases of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, from our unconsolidated affiliate ECOTEC for use in our operations.

Adjusted gross margin is the primary measure used by our CODM to evaluate segment performance because it focuses on the current performance of segment operations and excludes the impact of the prior historical costs of assets acquired or constructed that are utilized in those operations, the indirect costs associated with our SG&A activities, our financing methods and income taxes. Our CODM considers adjusted gross margin forecast to actual results and period over period financial variances in conjunction with product and customer service metrics and market trends when assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources.

18. Assets Held for Sale

During the second quarter of 2025, we committed to a plan to sell certain contract operations customer agreements and approximately 155 compressors, comprising approximately 47,000 horsepower, used to provide compression services under those agreements, as well as other assets used to support the operations and determined that the criteria for classification as assets held for sale as of June 30, 2025 was met.

The disposal group includes an allocation of goodwill, customer-related intangible assets and unamortized revenue recognition balance sheet accounts based on a ratio of the horsepower sold relative to the total horsepower of the asset group. To adjust the carrying value of the disposal group to its estimated fair value less costs to sell, we recorded a write-down of $8.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, which is included in long-lived and other asset impairment in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value less costs to sell of the disposal group classified as assets held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025:

Sale of disposal group

On August 1, 2025, we completed the sale of the disposal group classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2025. The transaction, executed pursuant to the asset purchase agreement dated July 1, 2025, included contract operations customer agreements, compression and other assets sold to Flowco for cash consideration of $71.0 million. The purchase price is subject to customary post-closing adjustments in accordance with the terms of the asset purchase agreement.

Table of Contents ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Form 10-Q and in conjunction with our 2024 Form 10-K.

OVERVIEW

We are an energy infrastructure company with a primary focus on midstream natural gas compression. We are a premier provider of natural gas compression services, in terms of total compression fleet horsepower, to customers in the energy industry throughout the U.S., and a leading supplier of aftermarket services to customers that own compression equipment in the U.S. We operate in two business segments: contract operations and aftermarket services. Our predominant segment, contract operations primarily include designing, sourcing, owning, installing, operating, servicing, repairing and maintaining our owned fleet of natural gas compression equipment to provide natural gas compression services to our customers. In our aftermarket services business, we sell parts and components and provide operations, maintenance, overhaul and reconfiguration services to customers who own compression equipment.

(3) Defined as average of period end horsepower that is operating under contract and horsepower that is idle but under contract and generating revenue such as standby revenue, including operating horsepower as of May 1, 2025 through June 30, 2025 for the compressors acquired in the NGCS Acquisition and as of December 31, 2024 through June 30, 2025 for compressors acquired in the TOPS Acquisition.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the non–GAAP financial measure of adjusted gross margin.

We define adjusted gross margin as total revenue less cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization. Adjusted gross margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary measure used by our management to evaluate the results of revenue and cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, which are key components of our operations. We believe adjusted gross margin is important because it focuses on the current operating performance of our operations and excludes the impact of the prior historical costs of the assets acquired or constructed that are utilized in those operations, the indirect costs associated with our SG&A activities, our financing methods and income taxes. In addition, depreciation and amortization may not accurately reflect the costs required to maintain and replenish the operational usage of our assets and therefore may not portray the costs of current operating activity. As an indicator of our operating performance, adjusted gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, gross margin, net income (loss) or any other measures presented in accordance with GAAP. Our adjusted gross margin may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other entities because other entities may not calculate adjusted gross margin in the same manner. 33

Table of Contents Adjusted gross margin has certain material limitations associated with its use as compared to net income. These limitations are primarily due to the exclusion of SG&A, depreciation and amortization, long-lived and other asset impairments, restructuring charges, interest expense, transaction-related costs, gain on sale of assets, net, other (income) expense, net provision for income taxes, and equity in net loss of unconsolidated affiliate, net of tax. Because we intend to finance a portion of our operations through borrowings, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue. Additionally, because we use capital assets, depreciation expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue and SG&A is necessary to support our operations and required corporate activities. To compensate for these limitations, management uses this non–GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to other GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of our performance.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary of Results

Revenue was $383.2 million and $270.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $730.3 million and $539.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increases in revenue were primarily due to increased revenue from both our contract operations business and aftermarket services business during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. See “Contract Operations” and “Aftermarket Services” below for further details.

Net income was $63.4 million and $34.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher adjusted gross margin from both our contract operations business and aftermarket services business, higher gain on sale of assets as well as an increase in other income. These increases were partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision for income taxes, long-lived and other asset impairment, SG&A, and transaction-related costs. 34

Table of Contents Net income was $134.3 million and $75.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher adjusted gross margin from both our contract operations business and aftermarket services business, higher gain on sale of assets as well as an increase in other income. These increases were partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization, interest expense, provision for income taxes, SG&A, transaction-related costs and long-lived and other asset impairment.

---	---

Revenue in our contract operations business increased approximately $92.9 million, due primarily to the compression units acquired in the TOPS Acquisition, as well as compression units acquired in the NGCS Acquisition, higher rates and an increase in average operating horsepower.

The increase in cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, was primarily due to the compression units acquired and the addition of headcount from the TOPS Acquisition and the NGCS Acquisition, including a $11.2 million increase in employee compensation, a $6.6 million increase in direct costs to service our compression fleet and a $0.5 million increase in lube oil expenses, due primarily to an increase in consumption, which was partially offset by lower prices. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in startup expenses resulting from average horsepower utilization for the fleet at record levels, as well as fewer unit stops.

The increases in adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross margin percentage were mainly driven by revenue growth that outpaced the increase in cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization.

Aftermarket Services


	****	Three Months Ended

Adjusted gross margin percentage ^(1)^			23	%		22	%	1	%

(1) Defined as adjusted gross margin divided by revenue.

Revenue in our aftermarket services business increased primarily due to higher parts sales, including the non-recurring sale of overhauled engines, increased service activity driven by higher customer demand, and an increase in maintenance service contracts.

The increase in adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross margin percentage were mainly driven by increased revenue which exceeded the increase in cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, due to differences in the scope, timing and type of services performed. 35

Gain on sale of assets, net			(4,297)			(576)
Other (income) expense, net			(2,841)			128

Selling, general and administrative. The increase in SG&A was primarily driven by a $2.2 million increase in employee compensation and benefits expense, a $1.5 million increase in professional and consulting fees, a $0.5 million increase in information technology expenses and a $0.4 million increase in sales commission.

Depreciation and amortization. The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily due to fixed assets additions, including depreciation and amortization associated with the compression units and intangible assets acquired in the TOPS Acquisition and the NCGS Acquisition. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in depreciation associated with assets reaching the end of their depreciable lives.

Long-lived and other asset impairment. The increase in long-lived and other asset impairment was primarily due to assets remeasured at estimated fair value less costs to sell on a nonrecurring basis related to assets held for sale. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in compression fleet impairment.

Compression Fleet

We periodically review the future deployment of our idle compressors for units that are not of the type, configuration, condition, make or model that are cost efficient to maintain and operate. We also evaluate for impairment our idle units that have been culled from our compression fleet in prior years and are available for sale. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recognized $2.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively, of impairment charges to write down these compressors to their fair value. The decrease in impairment charges on compressors was primarily due to an increase in customer demand and as a result, higher utilization of our equipment. See Note 11 (“Long-Lived Asset and Other Impairments”) for further details on these impairment charges. The following table presents the results of our compression fleet impairment review, as recorded in our contract operations segment:

Assets Held For Sale

In connection with the classification of the disposal group as assets held for sale as of June 30, 2025, we adjusted the carrying value of the disposal group to its estimated fair value less costs to sell and recorded a write-down of $8.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, which is included in long-lived and other asset impairment in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 18 (“Assets Held for Sale”) for further details.

Restructuring charges. Restructuring charges of $0.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of property disposal costs related to our property restructuring activities. See Note 12 (“Restructuring Charges”) for further details on these restructuring charges. 36

Table of Contents Interest expense. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to a higher average outstanding balance of long-term debt primarily due to the 2032 Notes offering and borrowings under our Credit Facility to fund cash consideration of the TOPS Acquisition and the NGCS Acquisition.

Transaction-related costs. We incurred $4.7 million of professional fees and other costs related to the NGCS Acquisition during the three months ended June 30, 2025, and we incurred $1.4 million and $1.8 million of compensation and other costs related to the TOPS Acquisition during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. See Note 3 (“Business Transactions”) for further details on transaction-related costs for the NGCS Acquisition and the TOPS Acquisition.

Gain on sale of assets, net. The increase in gain on sale of assets, net was primarily due to gains of $3.6 million on compression asset sales during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to gains of $0.3 million on compression asset sales during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Other (income) expense, net. The change in other (income) expense, net was primarily due to an increase in proceeds from insurance and other settlements.

Provision for Income Taxes

The increase in provision for income taxes was primarily due to the tax effect of the increase in book income during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Gain on sale of assets, net. The increase in gain on sale of assets was primarily due to gains of $10.7 million on compression asset sales during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to gains of $2.5 million on compression asset sales during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Other (income) expense, net. The change in other (income) expense, net was primarily due to an increase in proceeds from insurance and other settlements. 39

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Our ability to fund operations, finance capital expenditures and pay dividends depends on the levels of our operating cash flows and access to the capital and credit markets. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from our operations and our borrowing availability under our Credit Facility. Our cash flow is affected by numerous factors including prices and demand for our services, oil and natural gas exploration and production spending, conditions in the financial markets and other factors. We have no near-term maturities and believe that our operating cash flows and borrowings under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our future liquidity needs.

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity or debt securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, may be material, will be upon terms and prices as we may determine and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.

Cash Requirements

Our contract operations business is capital intensive, requiring significant investment to maintain and upgrade existing operations. Our capital spending is primarily dependent on the demand for our contract operations services and the availability of the type of compression equipment required for us to provide those contract operations services to our customers. Our capital requirements have consisted primarily of, and we anticipate will continue to consist of, the following:

•	operating expenses, namely employee compensation and benefits, inventory and lube oil purchases;
•	growth capital expenditures;
---	---
•	maintenance capital expenditures;
---	---
•	interest on our outstanding debt obligations;
---	---
•	dividend payments to our stockholders; and
---	---
•	shares repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program and to cover taxes required to be withheld on the vesting date of long-term incentive grants to employees.
---	---

Capital Expenditures

Growth Capital Expenditures. The majority of our growth capital expenditures are related to the acquisition cost of new compressors when our idle equipment cannot be reconfigured to economically fulfill a project’s requirements and the new compressor is expected to generate economic returns that exceed our cost of capital over the compressor’s expected useful life. In addition to newly-acquired compressors, growth capital expenditures include the upgrading of major components on an existing compression package where the current configuration of the compression package is no longer in demand and the compressor is not likely to return to an operating status without the capital expenditures. These expenditures substantially modify the operating parameters of the compression package such that it can be used in applications for which it previously was not suited. 40

Table of Contents Growth capital expenditures were $206.7 million and $139.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Maintenance Capital Expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures are related to major overhauls of significant components of a compression package, such as the engine, electric motor, compressor and cooler, which return the components to a like-new condition, but do not modify the application for which the compression package was designed.

Maintenance capital expenditures were $55.2 million and $44.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in maintenance capital expenditures was primarily due to an increase in scheduled and unscheduled maintenance activities due to maintenance cycle requirements and the addition of the compression units acquired in the TOPS Acquisition, partially offset by lower make–ready investment.

Projected Capital Expenditures. We currently plan to spend approximately $485 million to $520 million on capital expenditures during 2025, primarily consisting of approximately $340 million to $360 million for growth capital expenditures and approximately $110 million to $120 million for maintenance capital expenditures.

Dividends

On July 24, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.21 per share of common stock to be paid on August 12, 2025 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 5, 2025. Any future determinations to pay cash dividends to our stockholders will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations and credit and loan agreements in effect at that time and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

Sources of Cash

Credit Facility

During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, our Credit Facility had an average debt balance of $589.9 million and $287.0 million, respectively. The weighted-average annual interest rate on the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility was 6.7% and 6.8% at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, there were $3.0 million letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility and the applicable margin on borrowings outstanding was 2.1%.

As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants under our Credit Facility. Additionally, all undrawn capacity on our Credit Facility was available for borrowings as of June 30, 2025.

2032 Notes and 2027 Notes Tender Offer

On August 26, 2024, we completed a private offering of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due September 2032 and received net proceeds of $690.0 million after deducting issuance costs. In connection with the offering of the 2032 Notes, we completed a concurrent cash tender offer of $202.0 million. See Note 7 (“Long-Term Debt”) for further details. 41

Table of Contents

July 2024 Equity Offering

On July 24, 2024, Archrock sold, pursuant to a public underwriting offering, approximately 12.7 million shares, including approximately 1.7 million shares pursuant to an over-allotment option. Archrock received net proceeds of $255.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. See Note 9 (“Stockholders’ Equity”) for further details.

Cash Flows

Our cash flows, as reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized below:


	****	Six Months Ended
		June 30,
(in thousands)	****	2025		****	2024
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities		$	243,099		$	208,353
Investing activities			(541,697)			(173,488)
Financing activities			300,039			(35,284)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents		$	1,441		$	(419)

Operating Activities

The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to an overall increase in levels of activity, including the impact from the NGCS Acquisition and the TOPS Acquisition, which resulted in increases in accounts receivable and inventory, as well as higher adjusted gross margin from both our contract operations business and aftermarket services business, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable.

Investing Activities

The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to $298.5 million of cash consideration paid in the NGCS Acquisition and a $88.6 million increase in capital expenditures, partially offset by a $13.9 million increase in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.

Financing Activities

The change to cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to a $390.3 million increase in net borrowings of long-term debt, partially offset by a $27.8 million increase in common stock purchased under the Share Repurchase Program, a $16.0 million increase in dividends paid to stockholders and a $8.5 million increase in taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in the variable interest rate of our Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2025, we had $822.3 million of variable interest rate indebtedness outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 6.7%.

A 1% increase or decrease in the effective interest rate on our Credit Facility’s outstanding balance at June 30, 2025 would have resulted in an annual increase or decrease in our interest expense of $8.2 million.

Table of Contents ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act included in this Form 10-Q as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2.

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that we are able to record, process, summarize and report the information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based on the evaluation, as of June 30, 2025, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and made known to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, on a timely basis to ensure that it is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Other than the following items, there have been no material changes or updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2024 Form 10-K.

Risks Related to the NGCS Acquisition

We may not be able to achieve the expected benefits of the NGCS Acquisition. We may also encounter significant

difficulties in integrating NGCS.

We may not be able to achieve the expected benefits of the NGCS Acquisition. There can be no assurance that the NGCS Acquisition will be beneficial to us. We may not be able to integrate the assets acquired in the NGCS Acquisition without increases in costs or other difficulties. The integration of a business is a complex, costly and time-consuming process. As a result, we will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating our business practices and operations with the business practices and operations of NGCS. The integration process may disrupt our business and, if implemented ineffectively, would restrict the full realization of the anticipated benefits from the NGCS Acquisition. The failure to meet the challenges involved in integrating NGCS and to realize the anticipated benefits of the NGCS Acquisition could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects, as well as the market price of our common stock. The challenges of integrating the operations of acquired businesses include, among others:

●	difficulties with the integration of the business of NGCS and workforce following the completion of the NGCS Acquisition;
●	conditions in the oil and natural gas industry, including the level of production of, demand for or price of oil or natural gas;
---	---
●	our reduced profit margins or the loss of market share resulting from competition or the introduction of competing technologies by other companies;
---	---
●	changes in economic or political conditions, including terrorism and legislative changes;
---	---
●	the inherent risks associated with our operations, such as equipment defects, impairments, malfunctions and natural disasters;
---	---
●	the risk that counterparties will not perform their obligations under our financial instruments;
---	---
●	the financial condition of our customers;
---	---
●	our ability to timely and cost-effectively obtain components necessary to conduct our business;
---	---
●	employment and workforce factors, including our ability to hire, train and retain key employees;
---	---
●	our ability to implement certain business and financial objectives, such as:
---	---
●	winning profitable new business;
---	---
●	growing our asset base and enhancing asset utilization;
---	---
●	integrating acquired businesses;
---	---
●	generating sufficient cash; and
---	---
●	accessing the capital markets at an acceptable cost;
---	---
●	liability related to the use of our services;
---	---
●	changes in governmental safety, health, environmental or other regulations, which could require us to make significant expenditures;
---	---

Table of Contents

●	the effectiveness of our control environment, including the identification of control deficiencies; and
●	our level of indebtedness and ability to fund our business.
---	---

Many of these factors are outside of our control, and any one of them could result in increased costs and liabilities, decreases in the amount of expected revenue and earnings, and diversion of management’s time and energy, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of the acquired business.

The market price of our common stock may decline as a result of the NGCS Acquisition if, among other things, the integration of the properties acquired in the NGCS Acquisition is unsuccessful or transaction costs related to the NGCS Acquisition are greater than expected. The market price of our common stock may decline if we do not achieve the perceived benefits of the NGCS Acquisition as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by us or by securities market participants or if the effect of NGCS Acquisition on our business, results of operations or financial condition or prospects is not consistent with our expectations or those of securities market participants.

Any acquisitions we complete, including the NGCS Acquisition, are subject to substantial risks that could reduce our ability to make distributions to our common stockholders.

Even if we do make acquisitions that we believe will increase the amount of cash available for distribution to our common stockholders, these acquisitions, including the NGCS Acquisition, may nevertheless result in a decrease in the amount of cash available for distribution to our common stockholders. Any acquisition, including the NGCS Acquisition, involves potential risks, including, among other things:

●	the assumption of unknown liabilities, losses or costs for which we are not indemnified or for which any indemnity we receive is inadequate;
●	our inability to obtain satisfactory title to the assets we acquire; and
---	---
●	the occurrence of other significant changes, such as impairment of long-lived assets, asset devaluation or restructuring charges.
