News Release
U.S. Silica Holdings, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2021 Results
•Settled customer dispute and received $128 million of consideration, including $90 million in cash
•Second quarter revenue totaled $317.3 million
•GAAP and adjusted EPS for the quarter of $0.34 and ($0.12) per diluted share, respectively
•Overall volumes increased 15% sequentially with growth in both Industrial & Specialty Products and Oil & Gas Segments
Katy, Texas, July 29, 2021 – U.S. Silica Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SLCA), a diversified industrial minerals company and the leading last-mile logistics provider to the oil and gas industry (the “Company”), today announced net income of $26.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared with a net loss of $20.8 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2021.
The second quarter results were positively impacted by $46.9 million net, or $0.46 per diluted share, due to a customer settlement of $48.9 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, recorded in the Oil & Gas segment, and partially offset by delayed winter weather impacts and facility closure costs.
Bryan Shinn, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our strong financial and operational performance during the second quarter exceeded both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA expectations. Additionally, we recorded sequential volume growth in both of our operating segments, supported by the broader market recovery and constructive commodity prices.
"In the Industrial & Specialty Products segment, second quarter revenue grew at a rate that exceeded GDP growth and we recently announced our third price increase this year for our industrial and specialty products beginning September 1st. Our Oil & Gas segment benefited from strong commodity prices and completions activity, as we out-executed our competition and gained market share in the second quarter, which drove sequential increases in proppant volumes and SandBox delivered loads.
"I'm also happy to report that in late June, we came to an agreement with a customer to settle a dispute regarding fees related to minimum purchase commitments from 2014-2020. As a result of this resolution, the Company received approximately $128 million of consideration, including $90 million in cash. Half of the cash settlement amount was received in the second quarter and the balance was received in July. We have used a portion of this settlement to pay off our outstanding revolver balance of $25 million.
“Our commitment to deleveraging the balance sheet remains a key corporate initiative. As the macro environment continues to improve, we are focused on prioritizing free cash flow, growing the Industrial & Specialty Products segment, and maximizing efficiencies in the Oil & Gas segment.”
Second Quarter 2021 Highlights
Total Company
•Revenue of $317.3 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 84% when compared with the second quarter of 2020 and increased 35% compared with $234.4 million in the first quarter of 2021. However,
excluding the $48.9 million benefit in the Oil & Gas segment related to a customer settlement, revenue increased 15% sequentially.
•Overall tons sold of 4.104 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 15% compared with 3.561 million tons sold in the first quarter of 2021 and increased 116% when compared with the second quarter of 2020.
•Contribution margin of $128.6 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 110% when compared with the second quarter of 2020 and increased 109% compared with $61.6 million in the first quarter of 2021. However, excluding the $48.9 million benefit in the Oil & Gas segment, contribution margin increased 29% sequentially. In addition, costs associated with delayed winter weather impact and facility closure costs negatively impacted the second quarter.
•Adjusted EBITDA of $103.3 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 170% compared with $38.3 million in the first quarter of 2021. However, excluding the $48.9 million benefit in the Oil & Gas segment, adjusted EBITDA increased 42% sequentially.
Industrial & Specialty Products (ISP)
•Revenue of $124.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 10% compared with $112.7 million in the first quarter of 2021, and increased 24% when compared with the second quarter of 2020.
•Tons sold totaled 1.08 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 10% compared with 0.984 million tons sold in the first quarter of 2021, and increased 36% when compared with the second quarter of 2020.
•Segment contribution margin of $45.9 million, or $42.50 per ton, for the second quarter of 2021 increased 15% compared with $40.0 million in the first quarter of 2021, and increased 31% when compared with the second quarter of 2020.
Oil & Gas
•Revenue of $193.3 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 59% when compared with $121.7 million in the first quarter of 2021 and increased 167% when compared with the second quarter of 2020. However, excluding the $48.9 million customer settlement, revenue increased 19% sequentially.
•Tons sold of 3.024 million for the second quarter of 2021 increased 17% compared with 2.577 million tons sold in the first quarter of 2021, and increased 172% when compared with the second quarter of 2020.
•Segment contribution margin of $82.7 million, or $27.35 per ton, increased 285% when compared with $21.5 million in the first quarter of 2021 and increased 216% when compared with the second quarter of 2020. However, excluding the $48.9 million customer settlement, segment contribution margin increased 57% sequentially.
Capital Update
As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $212.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and total debt was $1.235 billion. The Company's $100.0 million Revolver had $25.0 million drawn, with $22.0 million allocated for letters of credit, and availability of $53.0 million. On July 27, 2021, the Company paid off its $25.0 million outstanding Revolver balance. Capital expenditures in the second quarter totaled $3.6 million. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company generated $68.3 million in cash flow from operations including the cash settlement. However, excluding the $48.9 million customer settlement, cash flow from operations would have been $23.3 million. The Company remains focused on building on its fundamental operating successes, its disciplined approach to expanding its business, ensuring that it generates sustainable free cash flow and continuing to de-lever its balance sheet.
Outlook and Guidance
Looking ahead to the second half of 2021 and beyond, the Company is well positioned for sustainable, long-term growth. The Company has a strong portfolio of industrial and specialty products, supported by a robust pipeline of new products under development as well as recent pricing increases.
The Industrial & Specialty Products segment continues to prove its strength and stability through cycles.
The oil and gas industry is progressing through a transitional year of what is forecasted to be a multi-year growth cycle as economic activity recovers. The first half of 2021 was marked by strong WTI crude oil prices and the completion of previously drilled but uncompleted wells. Progressing through the second half of 2021, customer spending in the Oil & Gas segment is anticipated to rebalance from well completions towards drilling activity.
The Company expects to deliver positive free cash flow this year and to continue to reduce net debt by year end.

Forward-looking Statements
This second quarter 2021 earnings release, as well as other statements we make, contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws - that is, statements about the future, not about past events. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. These statements may include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "plan," "intend," "believe," "may," "will," "should," "could," "can have," "likely" and other words and terms of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements made include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact and may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding U.S. Silica's growth opportunities, strategy, future financial results, forecasts, projections, plans and capital expenditures, technological innovations, the impacts of COVID-19 on the Company's operations, and the commercial silica industry. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions, which may not prove to be accurate. These statements are not guarantees and are subject to risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from these forward-looking statements. Among these factors are global economic conditions; the
effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on markets the Company serves; fluctuations in demand for commercial silica, diatomaceous earth, perlite, clay and cellulose; fluctuations in demand for frac sand or the development of either effective alternative proppants or new processes to replace hydraulic fracturing; the entry of competitors into our marketplace; changes in production spending by companies in the oil and gas industry and changes in the level of oil and natural gas exploration and development; changes in oil and gas inventories; general economic, political and business conditions in key regions of the world; pricing pressure; weather and seasonal factors; the cyclical nature of our customers' business; our inability to meet our financial and performance targets and other forecasts or expectations; our substantial indebtedness and pension obligations, including restrictions on our operations imposed by our indebtedness; operational modifications, delays or cancellations; prices for electricity, natural gas and diesel fuel; our ability to maintain our transportation network; changes in government regulations and regulatory requirements, including those related to mining, explosives, chemicals, and oil and gas production; silica-related health issues and corresponding litigation; and other risks and uncertainties detailed in this press release and our most recent Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize (or the consequences of such a development changes), or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any intention or obligation to update publicly or revise such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Segment Contribution Margin
Segment contribution margin is a key metric that management uses to evaluate our operating performance and to determine resource allocation between segments. Segment contribution margin excludes selling, general, and administrative costs, corporate costs, plant capacity expenses, and facility closure costs.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to segment contribution margin.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of our financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance, cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. Adjusted EBITDA contains certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and cash costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized, and excludes certain charges that may recur in the future. Management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and by using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally. Our measure of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the methods of calculation.

(3) | Merger and acquisition related expenses include legal fees, consulting fees, bank fees, severance costs, certain purchase accounting items such as the amortization of inventory fair value step-up, information technology integration costs and similar charges. While these costs are not operational in nature and are not expected to continue for any singular transaction on an ongoing basis, similar types of costs, expenses and charges have occurred in prior periods and may recur in the future as we continue to integrate prior acquisitions and pursue any future acquisitions. |
(4) | Plant capacity expansion expenses include expenses that are not inventoriable or capitalizable as related to plant expansion projects greater than $5 million in capital expenditures or plant start up projects.
