HOUSTON, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / May 7, 2025 / Stabilis Solutions, Inc., ("Stabilis" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:SLNG), a leading provider of clean fueling, production, storage, and last mile delivery solutions for many of the world's most recognized, high-performance brands, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

FIRST QUARTER 2025 HIGHLIGHTS

• Revenues of $17.3 million

• Net loss of ($1.6) million

• Adjusted EBITDA of $2.1 million

• Cash flow from operations of $1.0 million

• $9.0 million of cash and $3.5 million of availability under credit agreements as of March 31, 2025

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"During the first quarter, our team continued to make progress on key business development initiatives that support the long-term expansion of our platform in high-growth end-markets," stated Casey Crenshaw, Executive Chairman and Interim President & Chief Executive Officer. "As the small-scale LNG supplier of choice for customers requiring customized turnkey fueling solutions, we are seeing strong demand across the marine bunkering, commercial aerospace, and power generation sectors. Our team is actively pursuing multiple strategic opportunities with new and existing customers that will serve as catalysts for meaningful growth and additional investment over the coming years."

"While overall market demand remained robust, first quarter 2025 revenues declined year-over-year, primarily reflecting planned downtime with a key marine customer and the successful completion of a large, short-duration industrial project," continued Crenshaw. "Importantly, revenue growth within our aerospace and marine markets remained strong, increasing 13% compared to the prior year."

"We remain disciplined in our approach to capital allocation, maintaining a strong balance sheet while continuing to invest in growth," stated Andy Puhala, Chief Financial Officer. At the end of the first quarter, we had $12.5 million of cash and availability under our credit agreements, supporting our near-term priorities and providing flexibility to invest alongside rising customer demand. We continue to proactively manage our financial position and partner with strategic capital providers to fund the next phase of our growth."

"Stabilis' domestic footprint and end-market exposure favorably position us to deliver growth in the current trade environment," concluded Crenshaw. "Our focus remains squarely on executing our multi-year value creation strategy, targeting high-growth markets with multi-year demand for LNG solutions."

STRATEGIC AND OPERATIONAL UPDATE

• Strong competitive position within targeted, growth markets. Since the first quarter of last year, Stabilis' revenue mix in high-growth marine, power generation and aerospace end-markets increased from 56% of total revenue to nearly 70% in the first quarter of 2025. Demand within these end-markets is driven by multi-year trends such as the commercialization of the aerospace industry and the transition of marine vessels to LNG. The Company is uniquely positioned as an incumbent small-scale LNG supplier of choice in these markets given its turnkey solutions offering, which includes production, storage, transportation, and fueling services.

• Advancing significant operating and capital investments to support future growth, while delivering consistent operating cash flow. Stabilis continues to build out its commercial, technical and operations teams required to support execution and capture incremental marine, aerospace, and power generation opportunities. At the same time, the Company continues to allocate capital focused on expanding its capabilities in support of these growth markets.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Revenue for the first quarter of 2025 was $17.3 million, a decrease of 12.3% compared to the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in revenue compared to the prior year period was primarily attributable to expected downtime with a marine customer and the completion of a large industrial customer contract, partly offset by higher revenues associated with aerospace customers.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 was ($1.6) million, or ($0.09) per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in net income compared to the prior year period reflects the decrease in net revenues, including lower equipment and labor revenues on a completed customer contract and $2.1 million in non-recurring selling, general, and administration expenses associated with executive transition during the first quarter of 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2025 was $2.1 million, or 11.9% of revenue, compared to $3.1 million, or 15.7% of revenue, in the first quarter of last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA year-over-year is primarily attributable to lower revenues including lower equipment and labor revenues on a completed customer contract.

Most of these factors are outside our control and are difficult to predict. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such differences include, among other things: the future performance of Stabilis, future demand for and price of LNG, availability and price of natural gas, unexpected costs, and general economic conditions.

Non-GAAP Measures

Our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance and operating results of our business. EBITDA is defined as Earnings before Interest (includes interest income and interest expense), Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted for certain special items that occur during the reporting period, as noted below. We include EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to provide investors with a supplemental measure of our operating performance. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Accordingly, they should not be used as an indicator of, or an alternative to, net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance. In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow available for management's discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements, such as debt service requirements. Because the definition of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may vary among companies and industries, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands).
