Neutral Impact 4 of 5 product/contract Written later

On May 1, 2026, a Liberty Energy subsidiary signed two supply contracts with Bergen Engines AS for power generation equipment, with an aggregate purchase price of $505 million, for the company's prospective data center and other distributed power projects. Delivery is expected from the second half of 2027 through 2028, and Liberty must provide a parent guarantee for a specified portion of the price, so the deal commits significant capital ahead of those projects.
