Q2/25 FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
Article content
- Generated revenue of $615 million compared to $614 million in Q2/24 and $552 million in Q1/25.
- Recorded gross margin before depreciation and amortization of $175 million, or 29% of revenue, compared to $173 million, or 28% of revenue in Q2/24 and $161 million, or 29% of revenue during Q1/25.
- EI and After-Market Services (“AMS”) product lines generated 65% of consolidated gross margin before depreciation and amortization during Q2/25.
- Engineered Systems (“ES”) gross margin before depreciation and amortization decreased to 18% in Q2/25 compared to 19% in Q2/24, primarily due to product mix.
- SG&A was $61 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, down $14 million from the prior year period, driven by cost-saving initiatives, improved operational efficiencies, and the absence of one-time integration costs incurred in Q2/24.
- Adjusted earnings before finance costs, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”) of $130 million is a new quarterly record for Enerflex and compares to $122 million in Q2/24 and $113 million during Q1/25. Adjusted EBITDA benefitted from higher gross margin before depreciation and amortization, cost-saving initiatives and operational efficiencies.
- Cash provided by operating activities before changes in working capital increased to $89 million in Q2/25 compared to $63 million in Q2/24 and $62 million in Q1/25, a function of higher adjusted EBITDA, lower net finance costs, and lower current tax expense.
- Free cash flow was a use of cash of $39 million in Q2/25 compared to a use of cash of $4 million during Q2/24 and source of cash of $85 million during Q1/25. Compared to the second quarter of 2024, an increase in cash provided by operating activities before changes in working capital was more than offset by increased growth capital spending and a build in net working capital, notably: (1) strategic inventory investments to support future projects, including work in progress related to EI assets and purchases of select major components with increasing lead times; (2) income taxes payable; and (3) executive transition costs.
- Return on capital employed (“ROCE”)1 increased to 16.4% in Q2/25 compared to 1.7% in Q2/24 and 14.2% in Q1/25. ROCE during the second quarter of 2025 was the highest in over five years, benefitting on a year-over-year basis from an increase in trailing 12-month EBIT and lower average capital employed, predominantly due to a decline in net debt.
- Net earnings increased to $60 million or $0.49 per share in Q2/25 compared to $5 million or $0.04 per share in Q2/24 and $24 million or $0.19 per share in Q1/25. Compared to Q2/24, profitability benefitted from higher gross margin, lower SG&A expenses, lower net finance costs, reduced income tax expense, and an unrealized gain of $15 million related to the redemption options of its senior secured notes.
- Invested $71 million in the business, consisting of $34 million in capital expenditures ($23 million for growth) and $37 million for expansion of an EI project in the EH region that was commissioned in Q3/25 and accounted for as a finance lease. The Company now expects capital expenditures of approximately $120 million this year (previous guidance of $110 million to $130 million), including approximately $60 million allocated to growth opportunities.
- ES backlog as at June 30, 2025 of $1.2 billion was consistent on a year-over-year and sequential basis, providing strong visibility into future revenue generation and business activity levels. Bookings of $365 million during Q2/25 compared to $331 million in Q2/24, $205 million in Q1/25 and a trailing eight quarter average of $329 million. The ES book-to-bill ratio (calculated as bookings divided by revenue) was 1.1x during Q2/25 and was 1.0x on a trailing 12-month basis, highlighting that the Company is consistently replenishing its backlog in line with project execution.
- Enerflex’s U.S. contract compression business continues to perform well, led by increasing natural gas production in the Permian.
- This business generated revenue of $38 million and gross margin before depreciation and amortization of 74% during Q2/25 compared to $37 million and 65% in Q2/24 and $36 million and 72% during Q1/25. Revenue during Q2/25 reflects a shift in rental mix towards longer-term projects and a year-over-year reduction in non-rental activity.
- Utilization remained stable at 94% across a fleet size of approximately 456,000 horsepower. Enerflex expects its North American contract compression fleet will grow to over 475,000 horsepower by the end of 2025.

1 ROCE is calculated by taking EBIT for the 12-month trailing period divided by capital employed. Capital employed is average debt and Shareholders’ equity less average cash for the trailing four quarters.

SHAREHOLDER RETURNS
Article content
- The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of C$0.0375 per share, payable on September 2, 2025, to shareholders of record on August 18, 2025.
- During Q2/25, Enerflex repurchased 1,899,200 Common Shares at an average price of C$10.08 per share. Under the current normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”), the Company is authorized to acquire up to a maximum of 6,159,695 Common Shares or approximately 5% of its public float as at the application date, for cancellation. The NCIB commenced on April 1, 2025 and will terminate no later than March 31, 2026.

BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY
Article content
- Enerflex exited Q2/25 with net debt of $608 million, which included $71 million of cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $155 million compared to Q2/24 and $44 million higher than the first quarter of 2025. The increase in net debt compared to the first quarter of 2025 was a function of higher cash provided by operating activities before changes in working capital being more than offset by increased growth capital spending and a build in net working capital.
- Enerflex’s bank-adjusted net debt-to-EBITDA ratio was approximately 1.3x at the end of Q2/25, down from 2.2x at the end of Q2/24 and consistent with Q1/25.
- On July 11, Enerflex entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with respect to its syndicated secured revolving credit facility (the “RCF”). The maturity date of the RCF has been extended by three years to July 11, 2028, and availability is unchanged at $800 million. The Company also continues to maintain a $70 million unsecured credit facility (the “LC Facility”) with one of the lenders in its RCF syndicate.

OUTLOOK
Article content
Enerflex’s near-term priorities remain unchanged and include: (1) enhancing the profitability of core operations; (2) leveraging the Company’s leading position in core operating countries to capitalize on expected increases in natural gas and produced water volumes; and (3) maximizing free cash flow to further strengthen Enerflex’s financial position, provide direct shareholder returns, and invest in selective customer supported growth opportunities.
Article content
Enerflex continues to expect operating results to be underpinned by the highly contracted EI product line and the recurring nature of AMS, which together are expected to account for approximately 65% of gross margin before depreciation and amortization during 2025. The EI product line is supported by customer contracts expected to generate approximately $1.5 billion of revenue over their remaining terms.
Article content
Demand in the ES product line remains constructive, although the Company is actively monitoring near-term risks and uncertainties, including the impact of tariffs and commodity price volatility. Enerflex expects ES revenue to remain steady in the near term, supported by a backlog of approximately $1.2 billion as at June 30, 2025, and gross margin for the ES product line to align more closely with historical averages, reflective of a shift in project mix.
Article content
The medium-term outlook for each of Enerflex’s product lines remains attractive, supported by anticipated growth in the supply of natural gas and associated liquids, especially within Enerflex’s North American footprint.
Article content
Capital Allocation
Article content
Enerflex is refining its capital expenditure guidance for 2025. The Company now expects capital expenditures of approximately $120 million this year (prior guidance of $110 million to $130 million), including approximately $60 million allocated to growth opportunities (prior guidance of $40 million to $60 million) and $60 million for maintenance and PP&E expenditures (prior guidance $70 million). Growth investments will focus on customer-supported opportunities, primarily in the U.S. contract compression business line, where market fundamentals remain strong. This strength is underpinned by expected increases in natural gas production in the Permian Basin and continued capital discipline from industry participants.
Article content
Article content
Providing meaningful direct shareholder returns is a priority for Enerflex. During Q2/25, Enerflex returned $18 million to shareholders through dividend ($4 million) and share repurchases ($14 million).
Article content
The current NCIB commenced on April 1, 2025, and will terminate no later than March 31, 2026, with the Company authorized to acquire up to a maximum of 6,159,695 Common Shares or approximately 5% of its public float as at the application date, for cancellation. During Q2/25, Enerflex repurchased 1,899,200 Common Shares at an average price of C$10.08 per share
Article content
Going forward, capital allocation decisions will be based on delivering value to Enerflex shareholders and measured against Enerflex’s ability to maintain balance sheet strength. In addition to disciplined growth capital spending, share repurchases and dividends, Enerflex will also consider further debt reduction to strengthen its balance sheet and lower net finance costs. Unlocking greater financial flexibility positions the Company to respond to evolving market conditions and capitalize on opportunities to optimize its debt stack.

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

NON-IFRS MEASURES
Article content
Throughout this news release and other materials disclosed by the Company, Enerflex employs certain measures to analyze its financial performance, financial position, and cash flows, including net debt-to-EBITDA ratio and bank-adjusted net debt-to-EBITDA ratio. These non-IFRS measures are not standardized financial measures under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Accordingly, non-IFRS measures should not be considered more meaningful than generally accepted accounting principles measures as indicators of Enerflex’s performance. Refer to “Non-IFRS Measures” of Enerflex’s MD&A for the three months ended June 30, 2025, for information which is incorporated by reference into this news release and can be accessed on Enerflex’s website at www.enerflex.com and under the Company’s SEDAR+ and EDGAR profiles at www.sedarplus.ca and www.sec.gov/edgar, respectively.

FREE CASH FLOW
Article content
The Company defines free cash flow as cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less total capital expenditures (growth and maintenance) for EI assets – operating leases and PP&E, mandatory debt repayments, and lease payments, while proceeds on disposals of PP&E and EI assets – operating leases are added back. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies as it does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS. Management uses this non-IFRS measure to assess the level of free cash generated to fund other non-operating activities. These activities could include dividend payments, share repurchases, and non-mandatory debt repayments. Free cash flow is also used in calculating the dividend payout ratio.

BANK-ADJUSTED NET DEBT-TO-EBITDA RATIO
Article content
The Company defines net debt as short- and long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents at period end, which is then divided by EBITDA for the trailing 12-months. In assessing whether the Company is compliant with the financial covenants related to its debt instruments, certain adjustments are made to net debt and EBITDA to determine Enerflex’s bank-adjusted net debt-to-EBITDA ratio. These adjustments and Enerflex’s bank-adjusted net-debt-to EBITDA ratio are calculated in accordance with, and derived from, the Company’s financing agreements.
Article content
GROSS MARGIN BEFORE DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Article content
Gross margin before depreciation and amortization is a non-IFRS measure defined as gross margin excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization. The historical costs of assets may differ if they were acquired through acquisition or constructed, resulting in differing depreciation. Gross margin before depreciation and amortization is useful to present operating performance of the business before the impact of depreciation and amortization that may not be comparable across assets.

More specifically, Enerflex’s expectations in respect of its FLI are based on a number of assumptions, estimates and projections developed based on past experience and anticipated trends, including but not limited to:
Article content

- existing customer contracts within the EI product line will remain in effect and with no material cancellations or renegotiations over their remaining terms;
- the execution of projects within the ES product line will proceed as scheduled and the conversion to revenue will proceed without significant delays or cancellations;
- no significant unforeseen cost overruns or project delays;
- market conditions continuing to support the NCIB within the anticipated timeframe; and
- Enerflex will maintain sufficient cash flow, profitability, and financial flexibility to support the ongoing payment of a sustainable quarterly cash dividend, subject to market conditions, operational performance, and board approval.
