LONGMONT, Colo., Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enservco Corporation (NYSE:ENSV) ("Enservco", or the "Company"), a diversified provider of energy logistics solutions and specialized well-site services to the domestic energy industry, today announced operational and financial results for the second quarter of 2024. The Company announced on August 9, 2024 the sale of certain Colorado based frac water heating assets of Heat Waves Hot Oil Service, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Enservco, and its exit from the frac water heating business in Colorado. The financial results for Colorado frac water heating services are reported in the Company's "Completion and Other Services" segment in Enservco's financial statements, including its Form 10-Q filed earlier today with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In addition, the Company announced on August 12, 2024 the closing of the immediately accretive acquisition of Buckshot Trucking and closing on a share exchange with Star Equity Holdings, including an exchange of respective equity investments between the companies and short-term debt financing discussed in more detail in its Form 10-Q filed earlier today and Form 8-K filed Monday. As a result, the consolidated financial performance shown below and the Company's SEC filings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 is not indicative of future results, which the Company believes will be a material improvement due to the Company's repositioned portfolio of assets.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY Rich Murphy, the Company's CEO and Chairman stated "Our second quarter results marked an overall improvement on both a quarterly and year-to-date basis as well as a continued focus on controlling costs, which places us in a good position for the second half of 2024 as we begin to benefit from the positive financial performance and substantial opportunities provided by our recent transactions." Murphy continued, "The Company has evaluated and just recently executed a number of strategic initiatives designed to enhance our financial position and further rationalize our asset base as we reduced reliance on our seasonal frac water heating services business. In support of these efforts, we recently divested certain non-core assets and invested in opportunities such as logistics that generate solid cash flow and provide visible near and long-term growth. Over the past week, we announced the exit of our seasonal-focused Colorado frac water heating business and the closing of the immediately accretive Buckshot acquisition that provides a complementary customer base and increased profitable expansion opportunities. Importantly, we also announced our strategic financial relationship with Star Equity Holdings, which included respective equity investments by both companies. We are excited to have Rick Coleman – as CEO and a Director at Star – join the Board to add his insight and expertise as we look to further prudently expand our market position to enhance our service offerings and customer base." Mr. Murphy concluded, "I am extremely proud of the team here at Enservco. Over the past year and a half, we have been fortunate to materially improve our business and financial health through several key transactions and milestones. Many of these required significant organizational changes, and I want to thank everyone for their support and dedication as we critically repositioned the Company for long-term success – both operationally and financially. We look forward to shifting our nearer-term efforts to ensuring the successful integration of Buckshot's people and assets into Enservco's business, with five months of Buckshot's operations to be reflected in our second half results. This provides a solid outlook for the remainder of 2024 and the expectation of a strong 2025 assuming current or improved market conditions. Finally – and as important – I want to thank our shareholders for their ongoing confidence and continued support."
