News Release
U.S. Silica Holdings, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results
•GAAP and adjusted EPS for the quarter of $0.29 and $0.32 per diluted share, respectively
•Revenue increased 27% sequentially due to strong customer demand
•Adjusted EBITDA increased 77% sequentially
•Oil & Gas segment contribution margin increased 73% sequentially
•Industrial & Specialty Products segment contribution margin increased 21% sequentially
•Repurchased $100 million of debt at a discount to par using cash on hand in July
Katy, Texas, July 29, 2022 – U.S. Silica Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SLCA) (the “Company”), a diversified industrial minerals company and the leading last-mile logistics provider to the oil and gas industry, today announced net income of $22.9 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. The second quarter results were negatively impacted by $2.4 million pre-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share after-tax, of charges primarily related to merger and acquisition related expense and facility closure costs, resulting in adjusted EPS (a non-GAAP measure) of $0.32 per diluted share.
These results compared with a net loss of $8.4 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022, which were negatively impacted by $9.4 million pre-tax, or $0.09 per diluted share after-tax, of charges primarily related to a supplier contract termination and merger and acquisition related expenses, resulting in an adjusted loss of $0.02 per diluted share.
Bryan Shinn, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We delivered an exceptional second quarter with outstanding sales volume, revenue, earnings and cash generation across the company. By capitalizing on the strength in our underlying markets and improved operational efficiencies, we generated a 77% sequential increase in adjusted EBITDA, and $88 million of cash flow from operations. We continued to experience robust customer demand during the quarter and implemented numerous price increases and surcharges across both business units to fight inflationary impacts. In addition, I am extremely proud of our organization's execution during the second quarter as we creatively improved international logistics performance, increased plant outputs and delivered world class safety performance.
“In our Oil & Gas segment, the supply and demand balance in the sand and last mile logistics market remains very tight and we were effectively sold out due to strong well completion demand, particularly in West Texas. During the second quarter, we took advantage of operational efficiency gains at key mine sites to maximize production and our sand and SandBox sales prices and margins continued to move higher. Given the expectation for a multi-year energy up cycle, customers have been determined to secure sand supply and are signing attractive multi-year contracts, including paying cash up front.
“In our Industrial & Specialty Products segment, demand remained strong across end market segments. The transitory seasonal issues we experienced in the first quarter were resolved and we realized a very strong rebound in the second quarter, driven by price increases and surcharges across all major product lines to combat inflation, improved product mix, and greater operational efficiencies from initiatives such as leveraging alternate shipping ports and packaging automation.
"During the first half of 2022, our businesses generated significant profitability and levels of free cash flow that afforded us the ability to opportunistically repurchase $100 million of debt at a discount to par using cash on hand earlier this month. Given that we expect continued meaningful free cash flow generation in the second half of 2022,
we anticipate further reductions in our net debt, and are forecasting continued positive momentum in the third quarter.”

Outlook and Guidance
Looking forward to the third quarter and second half of 2022, the Company's two business segments remain well positioned for growth in their respective markets. The Company has a strong portfolio of industrial and specialty products that serve numerous essential, high growth and attractive end markets, supported by a robust pipeline of new products under development, as well as growth in its underlying base business and pricing increases and surcharges to continue to fight inflationary impacts.
The oil and gas industry is progressing through what is anticipated to be a multi-year growth cycle. Strength in both WTI crude oil and natural gas prices are promising for an active well completions environment throughout the second half of 2022 and into 2023.
The Company remains focused on generating free cash flow and de-levering the balance sheet and intends on being operating cash flow positive in 2022, keeping an estimated $40-$60 million of capital expenditures within operating cash flow.

Forward-looking Statements
This second quarter 2022 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; supply chain and logistics constraints for our company and our customers, 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; cost inflation; 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.
