Archrock: Emerging As A True Industry Leader
Summary The TOPS acquisition has been transformational for Archrock as demonstrated by over 40% gains in EPS in both Q4 and 2025 projections. The company has raised the dividend for two straight quarters and now yields 2.9%. LNG exports, electronification, and AI data centers are expected to increase market rates for compression equipment. AROC is also investing to grow its fleet by 5% in 2025. I maintain my BUY rating. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaSeeking Alpha • Feb 23
Archrock: Politics Overshadows Business
Summary Recession fears due to political factors may overshadow Archrock's prospects. The long-term outlook for natural gas is positive. The recent acquisition seemed promising initially, but unforeseen economic challenges now pose significant risks to the company's outlook. The likelihood of avoiding a recession (or worse) is diminishing, making the investment riskier. This is a very well-run company, with factors beyond the control of management changing the outlook.

Archrock: Steadily Improving Profitability Through Natural Gas Compression
Summary Q3 results showed a step change in gross margins from the company's baseline compressor fleet. The TOPS fleet should continue to push gross margin even higher in Q4, potentially reaching 70%. The natural gas growth thesis remains intact, giving the company a multi-year tail wind. Based on 2025 EBITDA projections, AROC appears undervalued for a highly contracted business and trades at less than 8.0x EV to EBITDA on a forward basis. I continue to rate AROC as a BUY.
