Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin are non-GAAP financials measures. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures for a discussion of these measures and a reconciliation of these measures to our most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Bud Brigham, Founder, Executive Chairman and CEO, commented, “This was another strong quarter for the Company. We generated $84.1 million in Adjusted EBITDA and converted 81.5% of that Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted Free Cash Flow."
Mr. Brigham continued, "The Dune Express remains on-time and on-budget, and we expect it to be up and running in the fourth quarter of 2024. We have ordered more than 90% of the equipment and materials for the project and have also contracted more than 80% of the installation and labor, which significantly reduces budget risk. To-date, we have taken deliveries of more than 57-miles of conveyor belts and over 100-miles of fiber optic cable."
John Turner, President & CFO, added, “During the third quarter, we completed multiple important corporate initiatives, as previously announced. We closed the Up-C simplification transaction in October, which streamlines our organizational structure and eliminates the dual-class share structure. We also closed on the term loan refinancing, which simplifies our capital structure and provides additional liquidity. We believe these corporate initiatives, along with our continued strong margins and financial performance position the company optimally as oil prices have strengthened and market activity appears to be improving."
Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results Third quarter 2023 total sales decreased $4.2 million, or 2.6% when compared to the second quarter of 2023, to $157.6 million. Product sales decreased $10.4 million, or 8.3% when compared to the second quarter of 2023, to $114.8 million, driven by a decrease in sales price. Given our heavily contracted position during the period, this sequential price decline is a function of higher-priced, shorter-duration contracts rolling off and being replaced by new contracts at lower rates as well as quarterly pricing resets on certain contracts. Service sales increased by $6.3 million, or 17.1% when compared to the second quarter of 2023, to $42.8 million. The increase in service sales was due to an increase in active jobs enabled by an increase in the number of trucks deployed and continued customer adoptions of our single- and multi-trailer logistics offerings, which was partially offset by marginally shorter haul distance for work performed during the quarter as customer activity was concentrated closer to our mines during the period.
Third quarter 2023 cost of sales (excluding depreciation, depletion and accretion expense) (“cost of sales”) increased by $4.3 million, or 6.7% when compared to the second quarter of 2023, to $67.8 million. The increase in our cost of sales was primarily driven by higher trucking and last mile logistics costs resulting from the increased size of our fleet.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the third quarter of 2023 increased $2.1 million, or 17.4% when compared to the second quarter of 2023, to $14.3 million, driven primarily by $3.3 million in non-recurring transaction costs related to the Up-C Simplification (defined below) and the refinancing of the 2023 Term Loan Credit Facility.
Net income for the third quarter of 2023 was $56.3 million, and Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 was $84.1 million.
Liquidity, Capital Expenditures and Other As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s total liquidity was $438.4 million, which was comprised of $264.5 million in cash and cash equivalents (held in cash, CDs, and one- and two-month Treasury bills), $73.9 million of availability under the Company’s ABL Facility, and $100.0 million of availability under the Company's Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility; the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility and $1.1 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit.
Net cash used in investing activities was $98.9 million during the third quarter of 2023, driven largely by costs associated with the construction of the new Kermit facility and payments for long-lead time equipment for the construction of the Dune Express. The construction of our new Kermit facility is progressing on-time and on-budget. We have started commissioning activities for the wet plant and expect the additional production capacity to come online late in the fourth quarter of this year. We continue to expect the Dune Express to come online in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Quarterly Cash Dividend On October 30, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board) of Atlas declared a dividend to common stockholders of $0.20 per share, or approximately $20.0 million in aggregate to shareholders. The dividend includes a $0.15 per share base dividend and a $0.05 per share variable dividend. The dividend will be payable on November 16, 2023 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 9, 2023.
Subsequent Events On October 2, 2023, the company completed the previously announced corporate reorganization (the "Up-C Simplification"). As a result of the Up-C Simplification, the company's previous dual class structure was eliminated and the company now trades under a single class of common stock.
As of October 30, 2023, Atlas had 100,025,584 shares of common stock outstanding.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion and Maintenance Capital Expenditures are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures used by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts and others, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, to assess our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of development activities, provide views on capital resources available to organically fund growth projects and, in the case of Adjusted Free Cash Flow, assess the financial performance of our assets and their ability to sustain dividends or reinvest to organically fund growth projects over the long term without regard to financing methods, capital structure, or historical cost basis.
These measures do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Conversion and Maintenance Capital Expenditures may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.
