Thomas Brown doesn’t let anything slide. “[He] has a certain demeanor about him, whether it’s showing up on time and getting on the guys,” Bears quarterback Caleb Williams said after his first practice under the Bears’ interim head coach, “Whether they’re older guys, younger guys ... making sure accountability is really important in football teams and business and family. He’s done a solid job so far with that, and holding me accountable, holding all the guys accountable. He’s a lead-by-example type of guy and that’s been great.” “Accountability” had been a buzzword all season under former coach Matt Eberflus — from the time the leadership council met with offensive coordinator Shane Waldron after a Week 3 loss to the Colts and pleaded to be coached harder. In fact, the issue was severe enough that players started taking matters of accountability into their own hands “a few weeks back,” defensive end DeMarcus Walker said, when ask if the Bears were being coached differently under Brown. “I feel like the players have taken the lead, where if we don’t see plays being run right, or there’s a mess-up or a mental error, we’ll start the whole play over,” Walker said. “I think we’ve done a great job of taking over and doing that the correct way.” The Bears (4-8) began a new era with their first practice under Brown, who was named the Bears’ interim coach when Eberflus was fired Friday following a 23-20 loss to the Lions at Ford Field on Thanksgiving Day — their sixth consecutive loss. Though Brown’s manner and approach are starkly different from Eberflus, operational changes were minimal in the opening preparation for Sunday’s game against the 49ers at Levi’s Stadium. With the Bears 12 games into the season, Brown wasn’t in position to make significant changes even if he wanted to. As the head coach, he now wears the Bears hat with the script “B” on it — an honor reserved for the Bears head coach going back to team founder George Halas. And when asked about changes that players will notice, he told reporters that after struggling for weeks to lose weight, he has lost 22 pounds — down to 203 — since he was promoted to offensive coordinator Nov. 12. He was just joking, he said. But even that marked a difference from Eberflus, who often struggled just to answer the question and kept his sense of humor in-house. Brown will be a little more amiable, but also a little more demanding, which is probably the way they prefer it. “I’ll be myself. I try to bring energy every single day,” Brown said. “I am a very direct person. I try to be engaging in front of the group, but not entertaining. I don’t care about entertaining them — but delivering the message, being clear and concise, but also collaborating with the entire staff, and our players as well.” One noticeable change on Day 1. The Bears will hold their media access after practice on Wednesday and Thursday. Under Eberflus the Bears held media access before practice, but after the team’s walk-through. “It was about trying to get our guys to be more efficient to how we do walk-throughs into practice, instead of having a break inbetween,” Brown said, “so we can get down in the building and do quality work.” But even though there were not many operational changes, players still noticed they were now being coached by Thomas Brown – “being a man of action and getting right to the point,” as linebacker and co-captain T.J. Edwards said. “He’s done a good job since the start of the week just setting his expectations for what he wants to get done,” Edwards said. “Operationally, we kind of do what we do, but I think he has just done a good job of keeping everyone on the same sheet of music. “I think we appreciate the way he goes about it, and just how he spoke to leadership today — he was to the point and understands what we need to get done and wants to go do it.” It remains to be seen how much of a difference that will make in Brown’s five-week trial as head coach. But for now he has what he needs most from his players — their attention. Brown literally has them on the edge of their seats. So if the new approach is going to resonate, now is the time. “Everything he’s telling us right now is very intentful and all of us are locked in,” guard Teven Jenkins said. “Everybody is sitting at the front of their seat, leaning in. You can see when somebody’s actually attentive and you can see that everybody in the whole team room is very bought-in to what he’s been saying.” Brown comes in with a big advantage. He inherits a team that, while it respected Eberflus, welcomed the change — despite the awkwardness of it happening during the season. After going 14-32 the past three seasons under Eberflus, Brown doesn’t have to re-invent the wheel. He represents the change the Bears need. “The main thing is winning,” Jenkins said. “If we’re put in the best spot and that’s TB [Brown] to do it, I think the whole team is very excited to see what he can do this Sunday and help lead us to another win.”

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 4, 2024-- Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc. (NYSE:SEI) (“Solaris” or the “Company”), today announced a financial and operational update for the fourth quarter 2024 as well as updates to its growth capital program to further support the Solaris Power Solutions segment in response to rapidly evolving customer demand. Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial and Operational Update The Company is increasing its fourth quarter 2024 Adjusted EBITDA* guidance to a range of $36 million to $39 million, compared to its prior expectation for a range of $33 million to $36 million. The primary drivers behind the updated range are continued enhanced utilization levels and improved cost absorption in the Solaris Power Solutions segment. The Company expects to deploy an average of approximately 250 MW during the fourth quarter, which reflects full utilization of its currently available asset base. In its Solaris Logistics Segment, the Company expects results to be relatively in line with expectations, which should continue to support strong total company operating cash flow generation in the fourth quarter. Solaris Power Solutions Growth Capital Update The Company recently placed orders for 9 additional 16.5 megawatt (“MW”) gas-fired turbines to support rapidly accelerating customer demand, totaling approximately 145 MW in incremental generation capacity. Solaris now expects to exit first quarter 2026 with approximately 680 MW of generation capacity. The Company expects to invest up to $120 million for the new turbine order, including ancillary equipment. Additionally, the Company expects to invest approximately $40 million in Selective Catalytic Reduction (“SCR”) technology to further enhance the emissions profile of the fleet in support of multi-year installations on selected locations. This expected approximately $160 million growth capital investment should occur primarily over the course of 2025, with equipment deliveries scheduled to occur from fourth quarter 2025 through first quarter 2026. “Demand for Solaris’ power-as-a-service offering continues to exceed our available capacity, providing us with the confidence to place this additional equipment order,” commented Bill Zartler, Solaris’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, the increasing site design and engineering complexities associated with the extending tenor of our contract fixtures presents an opportunity for Solaris to offer incremental ‘balance of plant’ equipment, such as the emissions control technology, that complements our power generation offering and is expected to enhance returns. This new equipment order will provide Solaris’ customers with near-term solutions in support of some of the most demanding ‘behind-the-meter’ power applications in operation today.” Footnotes: * Non-GAAP financial measure.

About Non-GAAP Measures Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because it reflects the core operating results of the Company’s businesses and helps facilitate comparisons of operating performance across periods. We define EBITDA as net income, plus (i) depreciation and amortization expense, (ii) interest expense and (iii) income tax expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus (i) stock-based compensation expense and (ii) certain non-cash items and extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring gains, losses or expenses. Although management believes the aforementioned non-GAAP financial measure is a good tool for internal use and the investment community in evaluating Solaris’s overall financial performance, the foregoing non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. However, no reconciliations of this non-GAAP measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure is available without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various reconciling items that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, that have not yet occurred, are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted given we have not completed any reporting processes for the period presented. Preliminary Estimate This press release provides a preliminary estimate of our Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ending December 31, 2024. This preliminary estimate is derived from our internal records and is based on the most current information available to management.

Any such adjustments could be material. This preliminary estimate has not been audited or reviewed by our independent auditors nor have our independent auditors performed any procedures with respect to this information or expressed any opinion or any form of assurance on such information.
