8. LEASES

Our leasing arrangements consist of both operating and finance leases. We are a lessee on several leases of real estate, administrative offices, manufacturing and maintenance facilities, heavy duty equipment, light duty vehicles, tractors, and power generation equipment. We do not have any material lessor arrangements.

In connection with the completion of the FTSI Acquisition, FTSI conveyed to Wilks Development, LLC, an affiliate of ProFrac LLC, substantially all of FTSI’s owned real property, consisting primarily of FTSI’s hydraulic fracturing equipment manufacturing facilities, in exchange for cash consideration of approximately $44.4 million (the “FTSI Sale Leaseback”). We now lease such real property from Wilks Development, LLC in exchange for aggregate monthly lease payments of $51.6 million through March 2032. The cash consideration received was $3.7 million less than the carrying value of these assets. Because this sale was to an affiliate under common control, we accounted for the $3.7 million as an equity transaction recorded as a deemed distribution within our consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Immediately subsequent to the AST acquisition, AST conveyed to the Wilks Parties substantially all of AST’s owned real property in exchange for cash consideration of approximately $23 million. We now lease such real property from the Wilks Parties in exchange for aggregate monthly lease payments totaling $30.2 million through May 2034. The cash consideration received was equal to the carrying value of these assets. This lease is accounted for as an operating lease.

In December 2024, we sold certain stimulation service equipment to the Wilks Parties in exchange for cash consideration of approximately $40.0 million. We now lease such equipment from the Wilks Parties in exchange for aggregate monthly lease payments totaling $44.8 million through December 2028. The cash consideration received was $26.5 million more than the carrying value of these assets. Because this sale was to an affiliate under common control, we accounted for the $26.5 million as an equity transaction recorded as a deemed contribution within our consolidated statements of changes in equity. This lease is accounted for as an operating lease.
