MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"We continued to advance our long-term business development and growth strategy by deepening engagement with customers across marine, aerospace, and power generation end-markets with a focus on securing the long-term contracts needed to grow our operations," stated Casey Crenshaw, Executive Chairman and Interim President & Chief Executive Officer. " Demand for our turnkey small-scale LNG solutions remains strong, underpinned by continued growth in commercial space applications. These trends reinforce our position as the provider of choice within our markets, and we are prepared to invest in additional LNG infrastructure in response to emerging commercial opportunities."

"Total revenue declined year-over-year in the second quarter, due to the successful completion of a large, short duration commercial project late in 2024. However, we are gaining momentum in our key high growth aerospace, marine and power generation markets, which together increased 15% year-over-year, reflecting growing demand for our solutions in high-performance and mission critical applications," continued Crenshaw. "This reinforces our confidence in the long-term fundamentals of our business, as we deepen relationships with both new and existing customers and benefit from the continued growth in LNG fuel applications."

"We remain focused on generating operating cash flows and maintaining a strong balance sheet and liquidity to support our long-term growth strategy," stated Andy Puhala, Chief Financial Officer. "As of the end of the second quarter, we had over $16 million in cash and available liquidity, providing us with the ability to continue investing in both capital expenditures and operating investments to support value creation for stakeholders."

STRATEGIC AND OPERATIONAL UPDATE

• Strong momentum in key growth markets. Since the second quarter of last year, Stabilis' revenue mix in high-growth marine, power generation and aerospace end-markets increased from 62% of total revenue to nearly 77% in the second quarter of 2025. Demand within these end-markets is driven by multi-year trends such as the commercialization of the aerospace industry and the transition of marine vessels to LNG. The Company is actively pursuing further commercial opportunities to expand relationships with both new and existing customers within these end-markets.

• Consistent cash conversion supports balance sheet versatility and growth investment potential. Stabilis' efficient cost structure and working capital utilization has continued to drive robust free cash flow conversion and a strengthening liquidity position. The Company continues to allocate capital and operating expenses toward growth initiatives and since the beginning of the year has invested $1.2 million in capital expenditures for growth initiatives.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $17.3 million, a decrease of 7% compared to the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in revenue compared to the prior year period was primarily attributable to the successful completion of a large industrial customer contract, partly offset by higher revenues associated with aerospace and power generation customers.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2025 was ($0.6) million, or ($0.03) per diluted share, compared to net income of $27 thousand or $0.00 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in net income compared to the prior year period reflects the decrease in net revenues, including lower equipment and labor revenues on a completed customer contract, partly offset by a $0.2 million reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.5 million, compared to $2.1 million, in the second quarter of last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA year-over-year is primarily attributable to lower revenues including lower equipment and labor revenues on a completed customer contract.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and within the meaning of Section 27a of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21e of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any actual results may differ from expectations, estimates and projections presented or implied and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as "can," "believes," "feels," "anticipates," "expects," "could," "will," "plan," "may," "should," "predicts," "potential" and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.

Such forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance, but reflect our current beliefs, based on information currently available. Most of these factors are outside our control and are difficult to predict. A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such differences include, among other things: the future performance of Stabilis, future demand for and price of LNG, availability and price of natural gas, unexpected costs, and general economic conditions.

The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Additional information concerning these and other risk factors is contained in the Risk Factors in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2025 which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or on the Investors section of our website at www.stabilis-solutions.com.

Non-GAAP Measures

Our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance and operating results of our business. EBITDA is defined as Earnings before Interest (includes interest income and interest expense), Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted for certain special items that occur during the reporting period, as noted below. We include EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to provide investors with a supplemental measure of our operating performance. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Accordingly, they should not be used as an indicator of, or an alternative to, net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance. In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow available for management's discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements, such as debt service requirements. Because the definition of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may vary among companies and industries, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands).

* Special items for all periods presented consist of adjustments related to unrealized (gain)/loss on natural gas derivatives. The three months ended March 31, 2025 and the six months ended June 30, 2025 also include an add-back of $2.1 million related to Mr. Ballard's severance expenses and a subtraction of $0.1 million for a gain related to a property damage settlement.
