Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial and Operating Results
Announces Increase in Dividend and Provides Updated 2026 Guidance
SOUTHLAKE, Texas, May 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. (“NGS” or the “Company”) (NYSE:NGS), a leading provider of natural gas compression equipment, technology, and services to the energy industry, today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
First Quarter 2026 Highlights
- Rental revenue of $47.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 represents a 21.1% year-over-year increase and a 6.3% sequential increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2025.
- Net income of $6.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $4.9 million or $0.38 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2025 and $4.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2025.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $24.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, represents a 25.8% year-over-year increase and a 14.6% increase sequentially.
- Commencing with the dividend payable in the second quarter 2026, the Company is increasing its quarterly dividend from $0.11 to $0.15 per share, representing a 36% increase, in the second quarter 2026 reflecting confidence in the Company's cash generation and long-term outlook.
Management Commentary and Outlook
"NGS delivered an exceptional start to 2026, highlighted by record quarterly rental revenue, adjusted gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, and horsepower utilization," said Justin Jacobs, Chief Executive Officer. "These results reflect disciplined execution in field service and growing demand for large horsepower compression. The increase in our 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance and the material increase in the Company's quarterly dividend underscore the strong start to the year as well as our favorable outlook for the balance of 2026."
"During the first quarter, we added approximately 17,000 horsepower to the fleet, all of which was large horsepower equipment and a majority of which was electric motor drive. These additions reinforce our continued focus on high-return, longer contract duration large horsepower applications, and we remain committed to deploying at least 50,000 horsepower during 2026."
"Looking ahead, market fundamentals remain constructive. Recent customer commentary indicating improving oil production sentiment combined with midstream infrastructure build out to support increased natural gas production should drive material incremental demand for compression."
"NGS remains well positioned to capture a disproportionate share of this growth given our advanced technology, the quality of our fleet, and the strength of our service team. We remain disciplined in our capital allocation framework as we continue to invest in organic fleet expansion, evaluate accretive M&A opportunities, and look to increase return of capital to shareholders. Our leverage at quarter end is the lowest of the public comparable set—we maintain great flexibility to invest in growth and drive value for our shareholders."
Corporate Guidance — 2026 Outlook
The Company now expects 2026 Adjusted EBITDA of $92.5 million to $97.5 million, compared to prior guidance of $90.5 to $95.5 million. The updated guidance reflects strong first quarter performance, high utilization, and contracted fleet expansion balanced with expectations for inflationary pressures in the remainder of 2026.
| Outlook | |
| FY 2026 Adjusted EBITDA | $92.5 million - $97.5 million |
| FY 2026 Growth Capital Expenditures | $55.0 million - $70.0 million |
| FY 2026 Maintenance Capital Expenditures | $15.0 million - $18.0 million |
The outlook for capital expenditures remains unchanged from last quarter. Growth capital expenditures for 2026 are expected in the range of $55 million to $70 million, reflecting continued investment in large horsepower compression units supported by multi-year customer contracts. Maintenance capital expenditures for 2026 are expected in the range of $15 million to $18 million consistent with the size, age, and operating profile of the Company's fleet.
Consistent with prior periods, the Company remains committed to disciplined capital allocation and investing in assets that generate attractive long-term returns for shareholders. The company's balance sheet and liquidity position provide flexibility to fund organic fleet expansion, evaluate strategic and accretive M&A opportunities, and continue returning capital to shareholders.
2026 First Quarter Financial Results
Revenue: Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased 17.1% to $48.5 million from $41.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily attributable to higher rental revenues for the comparable periods. Rental revenue increased 6.3% to $47.1 million from $44.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 driven by contracted fleet expansion and continued pricing strength across the company's fleet. As of March 31, 2026, we had 574,969 rented horsepower (1,243 utilized units) compared to 492,679 horsepower (1,202 utilized units) as of March 31, 2025, reflecting a 16.7% increase in total utilized horsepower.
Gross Margins and Adjusted Gross Margins: Total gross margins, including depreciation expense increased to $20.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $15.7 million for the same period in 2025. Total adjusted gross margin, exclusive of depreciation expense, increased to $30.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $24.3 million for the same period in 2025. For a reconciliation of Gross Margin, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures – Adjusted Gross Margin, below.
Operating Income: Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $13.1 million compared to operating income of $9.5 million for the comparable 2025 period.
Net Income: Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $6.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.9 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the comparable 2025 period and $4.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2025. The year-over-year and sequential increases in net income were driven by the increases in rental revenue and the associated gross margin impact, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses, rental equipment depreciation and interest expense.
Cash Flows: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, cash flows provided by operating activities were $23.0 million, while cash flows used in investing activities were $15.2 million. This compares to cash flows from operating activities of $21.3 million and cash flows used in investing activities of $19.3 million for the comparable three-month period in 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA increased 25.8% to $24.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $19.3 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to higher rental revenue and rental adjusted gross margin. Sequentially, Adjusted EBITDA increased 14.6% when compared to $21.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025.
Debt: Outstanding debt on our revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2025, was $226.0 million. Our leverage ratio as of March 31, 2026, was 2.33x and our fixed charge coverage ratio was 3.32x. The Company is in compliance with all terms, conditions and covenants of the credit agreement.
Selected data: The tables below show revenue by product line, gross margin and adjusted gross margin for the trailing five quarters. Adjusted gross margin is the difference between revenue and cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation.

(1) For a reconciliation of adjusted gross margin to its most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, please read “Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Adjusted Gross Margin” below.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure - Adjusted Gross Margin: “Adjusted Gross Margin” is defined as total revenue less costs of revenues (excluding depreciation and amortization expense). Adjusted Gross Margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary measure used by our management as it represents the results of revenue and costs (excluding depreciation and amortization expense), which are key components of our operations. Adjusted Gross Margin differs from gross margin, in that gross margin includes depreciation and amortization expense. 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. Depreciation and amortization expense does not accurately reflect the costs required to maintain and replenish the operational usage of our assets and therefore may not portray the costs from current operating activity. Rather, depreciation and amortization expense reflects the systematic allocation of historical property and equipment costs over their estimated useful lives.
Adjusted Gross Margin has certain material limitations associated with its use as compared to gross margin. These limitations are primarily due to the exclusion of depreciation and amortization expense, which is material to our results of operations. Because we use capital assets, depreciation and amortization expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue. In order 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. As an indicator of our operating performance, Adjusted Gross Margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, gross margin as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our Adjusted Gross Margin may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate Adjusted Gross Margin in the same manner.
The following table calculates our gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and reconciles it to Adjusted Gross Margin:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Adjusted EBITDA: “Adjusted EBITDA” is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as well as an increase in inventory allowance, impairments, retirement of rental equipment, nonrecurring restructuring charges including severance and non-cash equity-classified stock-based compensation expenses. This term, as used and defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies and is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income or loss, cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities, or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because: (i) it is widely used by investors in the energy industry to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors; (ii) it helps investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure and asset base from our operating structure; and (iii) it is used by our management for various purposes, including as a measure of operating performance, in presentations to our Board of Directors, and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows: (i) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect all our cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments; (ii) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (iii) Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt and finance leases; and (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any capital expenditures for such replacements.
The following tables reconciles our net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to Adjusted EBITDA:
