Summary

Natural Gas Services Group closed its acquisition of Flatrock Compression Holdings on June 15, 2026, for $120 million in a mix of cash and stock. The deal adds approximately 86,000 rented horsepower operating at roughly 95% utilization, bringing NGS's combined fleet to about 661,000 horsepower.

Management valued the transaction at 6.2 times Flatrock's annualized first quarter 2026 EBITDA and characterized it as immediately accretive to earnings, cash flow, and EBITDA. The acquisition addresses two strategic priorities for NGS.

First, it reduces customer concentration: Occidental Petroleum and Devon Energy previously represented 64% of revenue, now declining to 54% with the addition of two new large publicly traded E&P customers as the third and fourth largest relationships. Second, it strengthens NGS's basin position, with approximately 80% of Flatrock's horsepower in the Permian Basin (particularly the Midland Basin) and the remainder in the Eagle Ford, complementing NGS's existing footprint. The deal also meaningfully expands NGS's electric compression platform, as roughly 20% of Flatrock's horsepower is electric motor driven compared to 7% of NGS's existing fleet. NGS expanded its credit facility from $400 million to $500 million to finance the acquisition, with pro forma leverage expected at approximately $120 million three times adjusted EBITDA and more than $130 million of available borrowing capacity remaining after closing.
