Item 1.    Business

Our Company

We provide modular and scalable equipment-based solutions for power generation, control and distribution, and the management of raw materials in oil and natural gas well completions. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Solaris serves multiple U.S. end markets, including data center, energy, and other commercial and industrial sectors.

We operate through two reportable business segments:

•Solaris Power Solutions: This segment delivers power generation, control, and distribution solutions. Our offerings support data center, energy, and other commercial and industrial sector customers by providing flexible, on-demand power infrastructure, including power control and distribution capabilities.

•Solaris Logistics Solutions: This segment designs and manufactures specialized equipment that enables the efficient management of raw materials used in the completion of oil and natural gas wells. Our equipment-based logistics services include field technician support, software solutions, and may also include last mile and mobilization services.

Our Properties

We own or lease various facilities, including our corporate headquarters in Houston, Texas, and the following segment-specific facilities:

Solaris Power Solutions. Repair and maintenance facility in Buffalo, Texas, and storage and yard facilities in Southaven, Mississippi, Memphis, Tennessee, and Hobbs, New Mexico; and

Solaris Logistics Solutions. Repair and maintenance facility in Monahans, Texas, and a manufacturing facility in Early, Texas.

Suppliers

Solaris Power Solutions. As part of the acquisition of Mobile Energy Rentals, LLC (“MER” and such acquisition, the “MER Acquisition”), we obtained access to a long-standing relationship with a leading supplier of distributed power generation equipment. This supplier provides a significant portion of the equipment used in this segment’s operations. While recent commercial dialogue with this supplier remains strong, as evidenced by our numerous significant purchase orders placed with this supplier, there is risk that we may not be able to secure additional supply of power generation capacity in a timely or cost-effective manner. While we believe that viable market alternatives to this vendor exist, there is no guarantee that we would not be exposed to supply chain shortages or price increases in the future.

Solaris Logistics Solutions. We have built long-term relationships with third-party suppliers for the transportation of equipment and products, as well as for the provision of materials used in the manufacturing and maintenance of our systems. Although we do not currently have long-term agreements with third-party trucking suppliers, we have consistently relied on these suppliers over extended periods, which has enabled us to obtain trucking services on a timely basis. While

we believe that we can make satisfactory alternative arrangements in the event of any interruption in the supply of third-party trucking services, there is no guarantee that we will be able to avoid shortages or price increases in the future.

Our Customers and Contracts

Solaris Power Solutions. Revenue in this segment is currently significantly dependent on a single data center customer, which made up 88% and 96%, respectively, of total segment revenue for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

In 2025, we entered into a long-term commercial arrangement with this customer to provide up to approximately 900 megawatts of power generation capacity to support its data center. The commercial contract has an initial term of seven years. Revenue under this arrangement is expected to commence in 2026. In connection with this arrangement, we and the customer formed Stateline Power, LLC, which is owned 50.1% by us and 49.9% by the customer.

During the first quarter of 2026, we entered into a rental agreement with an affiliate of an investment grade, global technology company and industry leader in the evolving artificial intelligence computer space to provide over 500 megawatts of power generation equipment to support the customer’s power demand for artificial intelligence computing needs at its data center. The agreement’s initial term of ten years is expected to commence in 2027.

Solaris Logistics Solutions. The customer base within this segment primarily consists of major exploration and production (“E&P”) companies, as well as oilfield services companies. We typically engage with our customers through Master Service Agreements (“MSAs”), which outline the key terms of our arrangements. Individual work orders, which define the scope and specific service to be performed, are issued under the framework of these MSAs. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, one customer accounted for 28% and 20%, respectively, of total revenue in this segment. Additionally, another customer represented 12% and 13% of total revenue in this segment for the same periods.

Competition

Solaris Power Solutions. The majority of the distributed energy we provide occurs off-grid or “behind-the-meter” and is often seen as an alternative to grid-based power when grid access is either unavailable, delayed or viewed as unreliable. Behind-the-meter power can also be viewed by some customers as a compliment to the grid as it can provide a diversified energy source and an extra layer of backup once grid connection is received. Therefore, our primary competition for our offering is the electricity grid, but we can also work in conjunction with the grid. There are also numerous other distributed energy companies that offer both similar and different technologies. Each customer’s application can favor one technology over another, so not all technologies or companies are in direct competition, and as is the case with grid power, can even be complimentary offerings. The majority of distributed energy companies today are privately held, and competition tends to be very fragmented at smaller generator sizes. Only a few companies have similar capabilities as Solaris to provide an integrated distributed power solution on large, behind-the meter power applications.

Solaris Logistics Solutions. The oil and natural gas services industry is highly competitive. We have numerous types of competitors, including logistics companies, equipment manufacturers, hydraulic fracturing service companies and sand mining companies. Some of these companies could be customers of ours on certain jobs while also utilizing their own equipment and integrated service offerings on other jobs.

For both business segments, we believe that the principal competitive factors in the markets we serve are equipment reliability, technical expertise, patent-protected technology (for Solaris Logistics Solutions), ability to offer unique and/or bundled services offerings, equipment capacity, work force competency, efficiency, safety record, reputation, experience and price. We seek to differentiate ourselves from our competitors by delivering the highest-quality services and equipment possible, coupled with superior execution and operating efficiency in a safe working environment.

Seasonality

Our business is not significantly impacted by seasonality, although our business may be impacted by holidays, inclement weather, and our clients’ budget cycles, during which we may experience declines in our operating results.

For a discussion of the impact of weather on our operations, please see Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors—Our business is subject to inherent risks some of which are beyond our control, such as disasters and extreme or seasonal weather events or workforce matters. These risks may be self-insured or may not be fully covered under our insurance policies.”

Human Capital

We believe that our employees are the foundation to fostering an innovative culture, the safe operation of our assets and delivery of services to our customers. We foster a collaborative and welcoming work environment, focused on working safely every day. We seek to identify qualified internal and external talent for our organization, enabling us to execute on our strategic objectives.

As of December 31, 2025, we employed 468 employees overall. None of our employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements. We consider our employee relations to be good.

We continually strive to attract and retain talented individuals. Our commitment to equal employment opportunity principles and developing an employee population that brings varied perspectives to the workplace aids us in promoting a culture of thought, skill and knowledge across our operations to drive enhanced decision-making and execution for the business.

Health and Safety

Safety is a core value of ours and begins with the protection of our employees. We value people above all else and remain committed to making their safety and health our top priority. To protect our employees, contractors, and surrounding community from workplace hazards and risks, we implement and maintain an integrated system of policies, practices, and controls, including requirements to complete detailed safety and regulatory compliance training on a regularly scheduled basis for all applicable individuals.

Recruiting

In order to recruit and maintain a workforce that is talented and qualified, we have personnel devoted to recruiting and retention, online job postings and recruiting programs, such as job fairs and other recruiting events, which we have established at academic and professional institutions for roles at all levels.

Environmental and Occupational Health and Safety Regulations

Our business operations are subject to stringent federal, tribal, state and local laws and regulations governing occupational health and safety, the discharge of materials into the environment and environmental protection. Numerous governmental entities, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) and analogous state agencies, have the power to enforce compliance with these laws and regulations and the permits issued thereunder. We may be required to undertake difficult and costly actions, including as a result of any governmental enforcement actions, which could include the incurrence of potentially significant capital or operating expenditures to mitigate or prevent releases of materials from our equipment, facilities or from customer locations where we provide products and services. These laws and regulations may also, among other things, require the acquisition of permits to conduct regulated activities; restrict the types, quantities and concentration of various substances that can be released into the environment; require remedial measures to mitigate pollution from former and ongoing operations; impose specific safety and health criteria addressing worker protection; and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from operations and support services.

The more significant of these existing environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations include the following U.S. legal standards, as amended from time to time:

(1)the Clean Air Act (“CAA”), which restricts the emission of air pollutants from many sources and imposes various pre-construction, operational, monitoring, and reporting requirements, and that the EPA has relied upon as authority for adopting climate change regulatory initiatives relating to greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions;

(2)the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act (“CWA”), which regulates discharges of pollutants from facilities to state and federal waters, including wetlands, and establishes the extent to which waterways are subject to federal jurisdiction and rulemaking as protected waters of the United States;

10

Table of Contents

(3)the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, which, among other things, subjects owners and operators of onshore facilities to liability for removal costs and damages arising from an oil spill in waters of the United States;

(4)the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), which imposes liability on generators, transporters, disposers and arrangers of hazardous substances at sites where hazardous substance releases have occurred or are threatening to occur;

(5)the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), which governs the generation, treatment, storage, transport, and disposal of solid wastes, including hazardous wastes;

(6)the Safe Drinking Water Act (“SDWA”), which ensures the quality of the nation’s public drinking water through adoption of drinking water standards and controlling the injection of waste fluids into below-ground formations that may adversely affect drinking water sources;

(7)the Occupational Safety and Health Act, which establishes workplace standards for the protection of the health and safety of employees, including the implementation of hazard communications programs designed to inform employees about hazardous substances in the workplace, potential harmful effects of these substances, and appropriate control measures;

(8)the Endangered Species Act, which restricts activities that may affect existing or previously unidentified federally listed endangered and threatened species or their habitats by the implementation of new or existing operating restrictions or a temporary, seasonal, or permanent ban in affected areas; and

(9)the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”) regulations, which relate to advancing the safe transportation of energy and hazardous materials and emergency response preparedness.

Certain of these federal environmental laws such as CERCLA and the RCRA, as well as analogous state laws impose joint and several strict liability for costs required to clean up and restore properties where pollutants have been released regardless of whom may have caused the harm or whether the activity was performed in compliance with all applicable laws. States also adopt and implement their own environmental laws and regulations, which may be more stringent than federal requirements. Many of the properties owned or leased by us were previously operated by third parties whose management, disposal or release of materials and wastes was not under our control. Private parties, including the owners of properties that we lease or upon which we conduct our services for our customers as well as facilities where our materials or wastes are taken for recycling or disposal, may also have the right to pursue legal actions to enforce compliance as well as to seek damages for non-compliance with environmental laws and regulations or for personal injury or property or natural resource damages. We have incurred and will continue to incur operating and capital expenditures, some of which may be material, to comply with environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations and such costs may have a material adverse effect on our business and operational results in the future.

The trend in environmental regulation is to place more restrictions and limitations on activities that may affect the environment or public health and we or our customers may be required to make significant, unanticipated capital and operating expenditures. Examples of regulatory initiatives to which we are subject to include the following:

(1)Hydraulic Fracturing. At the federal level, the EPA has asserted federal regulatory authority under the SDWA over certain hydraulic fracturing activities involving the use of diesel fuels and published permitting guidance for such activities. Additionally, the EPA issued a final regulation under the CWA prohibiting discharges to publicly owned treatment works of wastewater from onshore unconventional oil and gas extraction facilities. Notwithstanding these legal developments, new laws or regulations or administrative and policy initiatives could be adopted that have the effect of restricting hydraulic fracturing activities generally, or those occurring on federal lands. For example, Congress has, from time to time, legislated changes to the fiscal terms and bonding requirements of federal oil and gas leases. At the state level, many states have adopted legal requirements that have imposed new or more stringent permitting, public disclosure or well construction requirements on hydraulic fracturing activities, including states where our customers operate. States could also elect to place prohibitions on hydraulic fracturing and local governments may seek to adopt ordinances within their jurisdictions regulating the time, place or manner of hydraulic fracturing activities. Finally, water is an essential component of shale oil and natural gas production during both the drilling and hydraulic fracturing processes. Our customers’ access to water to be used in these processes may be adversely affected due to reasons such as periods of extended drought, private, third party competition for water in localized

11

Table of Contents

areas or the implementation of local or state governmental programs to monitor or restrict the beneficial use of water subject to their jurisdiction for hydraulic fracturing to ensure adequate local water supplies.

(2)Induced Seismicity. In recent years, wells used for the disposal by injection of flowback water or certain other oilfield fluids below ground into non-producing formations have been associated with an increased number of seismic events, with research suggesting that the link between seismic events and wastewater disposal may vary by region and local geology. In response to these concerns, regulators in some of the states in which our customers operate have adopted additional requirements related to seismicity and its potential association with hydraulic fracturing. Moreover, states may issue orders to temporarily shut down or to curtail the injection depth of existing wells in the vicinity of seismic events, as was the case in recent years in the Permian Basin of Texas and has been the case over the past several years in central Oklahoma. Another consequence of seismic events may be lawsuits alleging that disposal well operations have caused damage to neighboring properties or otherwise violated state and federal rules regulating waste disposal.

(3)National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The EPA is required by the CAA to set National Ambient Air Quality Standards (“NAAQS”) for six principle pollutants that are considered harmful to public health. Whether the air quality in a particular region is in “attainment” with NAAQS impacts the stringency of certain air quality regulations in that area. From time to time, the EPA considers revisions to the NAAQS and States reassess the attainment status of counties within their borders. For example, the EPA recently revised the NAAQS for particulate matter of 2.5 micrometers or less in size and is currently reviewing the NAAQS for ground-level ozone. State implementation of revised NAAQS could, among other things, require installation of new emission controls on some of our or our customers’ equipment, result in longer permitting timelines, and significantly increase our or our customers’ capital expenditures and operating costs.

(4)Climate Change. In the United States, no comprehensive climate change legislation has been implemented at the federal level, but certain federal laws, like the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), have been enacted to advance climate-related initiatives and provide significant financial support for alternative or lower GHG-emitting energy production. While many of the IRA’s provisions were repealed or otherwise modified following the change in presidential administrations and the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) in 2025, any similar or future climate-related legislation could increase costs within the oil and gas industry accelerate a transition away from fossil fuels, which in turn could reduce demand for our services. There also continues to be uncertainty surrounding the federal regulation of GHG emissions. Following findings that GHGs endanger public health and the environment, the EPA has adopted regulations related to the permitting, reduction, and monitoring of GHG emissions. For example, EPA recently adopted enhanced performance standards for the reduction of methane emissions from the upstream oil and gas sector. However, federal policy towards GHG emissions, and regulation thereunder, has varied significantly between the past several presidential administrations. The current Trump Administration has expressed a policy preference of limiting or rescinding regulations concerning GHG emissions and, in February 2026, promulgated a final rule repealing the EPA’s “Endangerment Finding,” which underpins most of EPA’s GHG-related rules. Whether or how such policies and the EPA’s rescission of its “Endangerment Finding” will be implemented and if they survive any potential legal challenges, or whether future administrations or Congress may pursue new GHG emissions regulation, cannot be predicted at this time. In the absence of federal climate legislation, various states and groups of states have adopted or are considering adopting climate-related legislation, regulations or other policy initiatives that include GHG cap and trade programs, disclosure and reporting requirements, carbon taxes, superfund-style cost recovery funds, and direct restrictions of GHG emissions. State, regional, and local governments may also elect to continue to participate in international climate change initiatives, despite the Trump Administration withdrawing the United States from such initiatives, including the Paris Agreement, the United States’ withdrawal from which was finalized in January 2026. These federal and state regulatory regimes and any new or emerging initiatives could have the effect of increasing our or our customers’ costs of compliance and adversely impact our financial performance.

Climate-related litigation risks are also increasing, as a number of states, municipalities and other plaintiffs have sought to bring suit against the largest oil and natural gas exploration and production companies in state or federal court, alleging, among other things, that such companies created public nuisances by producing fuels that contributed to global warming effects and therefore are responsible for roadway and infrastructure damages as a result, or that the companies have been aware of the adverse effects of climate change for some time but defrauded their investors by failing to adequately disclose those impacts. Though we have not been

12

Table of Contents

subject to such a suit, any involvement, or the involvement of our customers, could adversely impact our reputation and financial performance.

Finally, increasing concentrations of GHGs in the earth’s atmosphere may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, droughts, floods, rising sea levels and other climatic events, as well as chronic shifts in temperature and precipitation patterns. These climatic developments have the potential to cause physical damage to our assets or those of our customers, and thus could have an adverse effect on our operations. Additionally, changing meteorological conditions, particularly temperature, may result in changes to the amount, timing, or location of demand for energy production. While our consideration of changing climatic conditions and inclusion of safety factors in design is intended to reduce the uncertainties that climate change and other events may potentially introduce, our ability to mitigate the adverse impacts of these events depends in part on the effectiveness of our facilities and our disaster preparedness and response and business continuity planning, which may not have considered or be prepared for every eventuality.

We are also subject to the requirements of the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act and comparable state statutes whose purpose is to protect the health and safety of workers. OSHA’s hazard communication standard, the EPA’s Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act and Risk Management Plan requirements, and comparable state regulations and any implementing regulations require that we organize and/or disclose information about hazardous materials used or produced in our operations and that this information be provided to employees, state and local governmental authorities and citizens. We have an internal program of inspection designed to monitor and enforce compliance with worker safety requirements. Additionally, there are legal requirements relating to human exposure to crystalline silica that are applicable to certain of our operations. For example, OSHA has implemented rules establishing a more stringent permissible exposure limit for exposure to respirable crystalline silica as well as other regulatory initiatives protective of our employees, including in connection with hydraulic fracturing-related activities. These workplace legal requirements remain subject to future change, including in respect of permissible exposure limits, required controls and personal protective equipment. Further, the inhalation of respirable crystalline silica is associated with health risks including, for example, the lung disease silicosis and these health risks have been, and may continue to be, a significant issue confronting the hydraulic fracturing industry. Concerns over silicosis and other potential adverse health effects, as well as concerns regarding potential liability from the use of hydraulic fracture sand, may have the effect of discouraging our customers' use of hydraulic fracture sand. The actual or perceived health risks of handling hydraulic fracture sand could materially and adversely affect hydraulic fracturing service providers, including us, through reduced use of hydraulic fracture sand, the threat of product liability or the filing of lawsuits naming us as a defendant, increased scrutiny by federal, state and local regulatory authorities of us and our customers or reduced financing sources available to the hydraulic fracturing industry.

Additionally, as part of the services we provide, we engage third parties that operate as motor carriers and therefore, are subject to regulation by the DOT and analogous state agencies. These regulatory authorities exercise broad powers, governing activities such as the authorization to engage in motor carrier operations, regulatory safety, equipment testing, driver requirements and specifications, and insurance requirements. The trucking industry is subject to possible regulatory and legislative changes that may impact our operations, including increased costs, such as changes in fuel emissions limits, hours of service regulations that govern the amount of time a driver may drive or work in any specific period and limits on vehicle weight and size. We cannot predict whether, or in what form, any legislative or regulatory changes or municipal ordinances applicable to our logistics operations will be enacted and to what extent any such legislation or regulations could increase our costs or otherwise adversely affect our business or operations.

Intellectual Property

We continuously seek to innovate our product and service offerings to improve our operations and deliver increased value to our customers, and our software team is constantly designing and building increased software capabilities to enable efficient supply chain planning and management for our customers. As such, we seek patent and trademark protections for our technology when we deem it prudent, and we aggressively pursue protection of these rights. We believe our patents, trademarks, and other protections for our proprietary technologies are adequate for the conduct of our business and that no single patent or trademark is critical to our business. In addition, we rely to a great extent on the technical expertise and know-how of our personnel to maintain our competitive position, and we take commercially reasonable measures to protect trade secrets and other confidential and/or proprietary information relating to the technologies we develop.

As of December 31, 2025, we had eleven issued patents in the United States, nine corollary patents issued in Canada and four corollary patents issued in Mexico; two pending utility patent application in the United States, two in Canada, and two in Mexico. Each patent and patent application relates to our systems, services and other technologies. Our issued patents expire between 2032 and 2044, provided all of the maintenance fees are paid. We cannot make any assurances that any of our currently pending patent applications will result in the issuance of a granted patent, or whether the examination process will require us to narrow the present claims. Additionally, any issued patents may be contested, circumvented, found unenforceable or invalid, and we may not be able to prevent third parties from infringing them.
