Risk Factors](index=27&type=section&id=Item%201A.Risk%20Factors) Solaris faces risks from market volatility, competition, operational hazards, customer concentration, regulatory shifts, and financial limitations - The demand for Solaris's products and services is primarily determined by current and anticipated oil and natural gas prices and the related levels of capital spending and drilling activity, making the company vulnerable to price volatility[72](index=72&type=chunk) - The company faces significant competition from various industry players, and consolidation among customers or competitors could impede market share gains or make adoption of new product offerings difficult[73](index=73&type=chunk)[74](index=74&type=chunk) - Continuing inflationary issues and associated changes in monetary policy may increase the cost of goods, services, and personnel, leading to higher capital expenditures and operating costs[75](index=75&type=chunk) - Changes in the transportation industry, including availability, reliability, or costs, could impair customers' ability to take delivery of products or make Solaris's offerings less attractive[76](index=76&type=chunk)[78](index=78&type=chunk) - Operational risks include natural or man-made disasters, extreme weather events, and employee/employer liabilities, which may not be fully covered by insurance and could disrupt business[79](index=79&type=chunk)[80](index=80&type=chunk) - Reliance on a few large customers means the loss of any material customer could adversely affect revenue and operating results, as redeploying equipment at similar utilization or pricing levels may be challenging[81](index=81&type=chunk) - External events such as pandemics, political unrest, armed conflicts (e.g., Ukraine-Russia, Israel-Hamas), and economic recessions could materially disrupt demand for oil and natural gas and Solaris's services[82](index=82&type=chunk)[84](index=84&type=chunk) - Failure to protect proprietary information and intellectual property rights, or successful challenges against them, could result in a loss of competitive advantage or market share[89](index=89&type=chunk) - Technological advancements in well service products, including those that reduce proppant or chemical requirements, could adversely affect business if Solaris cannot adapt or implement new technologies rapidly[90](index=90&type=chunk) - Cybersecurity risks, including information theft, data corruption, and operational disruption, are significant, and existing protective measures may not be sufficient against evolving threats[91](index=91&type=chunk) - The business depends on domestic capital spending by the oil and natural gas industry, and reductions in such spending due to commodity price declines or other factors could materially affect liquidity and financial condition[96](index=96&type=chunk) - Uncertainty in global financial markets or deterioration of customer financial condition could lead to reduced spending, non-payment, or inability to perform obligations[97](index=97&type=chunk)[100](index=100&type=chunk) - The Credit Agreement subjects Solaris to financial and restrictive covenants, and non-compliance could lead to acceleration of outstanding amounts or limited access to funds[101](index=101&type=chunk) - The ability to use net operating loss (NOL) carryovers may be limited by future income or an 'ownership change' under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code[102](index=102&type=chunk) - Laws, regulations, and executive orders relating to hydraulic fracturing could increase costs, result in restrictions, delays, or cancellations of oil and natural gas exploration and production activities, thereby reducing demand for Solaris's services[103](index=103&type=chunk) - Increasing attention to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) matters, including climate change, may lead to increased costs, reduced demand for hydrocarbon products, negative investor sentiment, and restricted access to capital markets[109](index=109&type=chunk)[110](index=110&type=chunk)[111](index=111&type=chunk) - Solaris Inc. is a holding company dependent on distributions from Solaris LLC to pay taxes and obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement (TRA), and restrictions on such distributions could adversely affect liquidity[116](index=116&type=chunk) - Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement could be substantial, potentially accelerated in a change of control, and may significantly exceed actual tax benefits, impacting liquidity and potentially deterring acquisitions[136](index=136&type=chunk)[138](index=138&type=chunk)[140](index=140&type=chunk)[141](index=141&type=chunk)[143](index=143&type=chunk) -
