Kodiak Gas Services reports Q1 adjusted EPS 59c, consensus 54c

Reports Q1 revenue $345.76M, consensus $340.43M. “Kodiak is off to a fantastic start in 2026, with record contract services revenue and adjusted gross margin percentage driving record quarterly adjusted EBITDA. Our contract compression business continues to outperform expectations, and our new power business has tremendous growth potential,” said Mickey McKee, Kodiak’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Since closing the DPS acquisition, we have been actively engaged with numerous data center developers discussing the scope and scale of their distributed power needs. Given the overwhelming demand, we are actively working to scale our power offerings, including today’s announcement of equipment orders that will significantly increase our power generation capacity to over 650 megawatts, and clear line of sight to over two gigawatts by the end of the decade. We are currently in advanced discussions with customers to deploy this capacity under long-term contracts. We remain constructive on the outlook for U.S. natural gas, with rising demand driving the need for incremental compression infrastructure. The market remains tight with historically long lead times for new large horsepower compression, but Kodiak is well positioned to deliver on our growth targets in the coming years. We’re also encouraged by the increasing adoption of distributed power as the preferred solution for data center and other large industrial power consumers’ long-term power needs. We have a robust pipeline of commercial opportunities, and have made meaningful progress to secure the equipment to allow us to capture those opportunities and realize our long-term growth objectives.”
