NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
We are an energy infrastructure company with a pure-play focus on midstream natural gas compression. We are the leading provider of natural gas compression services to customers in the oil and natural gas industry throughout the U.S. and a leading supplier of aftermarket services to customers that own compression equipment in the U.S. We operate in two business segments: contract operations and aftermarket services. Our predominant segment, contract operations, primarily includes designing, sourcing, owning, installing, operating, servicing, repairing and maintaining our owned fleet of natural gas compression equipment to provide natural gas compression services to our customers. In our aftermarket services business, we sell parts and components and provide operations, maintenance, overhaul and reconfiguration services to customers who own compression equipment.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are not required in these interim financial statements and have been condensed or omitted. Management believes that the information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements presented in our 2020 Form 10-K, which contains a more comprehensive summary of our accounting policies. The interim results reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
2. Recent Accounting Developments
Accounting Standards Updates Implemented
Reference Rate Reform
On June 10, 2021, we prospectively adopted ASU 2020-04, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Entities may elect to apply the amendments for contract modifications as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. On June 10, 2021, we amended one of our interest rate swap agreements and determined that the modifications meet the criteria for the optional expedients and exceptions, which allow us to forego de-designation of the hedging relationship and to subsequently assess effectiveness on a qualitative basis. The adoption of ASU 2020-04 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In the first quarter, we evaluated Amendment No. 3 to our Credit Facility and determined that ASU 2020-04 was not applicable. We will continue to assess any modifications to our interest rate swap and Credit Facility agreements during the effective period of this update and will apply the amendments as applicable.
3. Business Transactions
February 2021 Disposition
On February 10, 2021, we completed the sale of certain contract operations customer service agreements and approximately 300 compressors, comprising approximately 40,000 horsepower, used to provide compression services under those agreements as well as other assets used to support the operations. We allocated customer-related and contract-based intangible assets based on a ratio of the horsepower sold relative to the total horsepower of the asset group. We recorded a gain on the sale of $6.0 million in (gain) loss on sale of assets, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
11
July 2020 Disposition
In July 2020, we completed the sale of the turbocharger business included within our . In connection with the sale, we entered into a supply agreement to purchase a minimum amount of turbocharger goods and services over a two-year term. In addition to cash of $9.5 million received upon closing, an additional $3.0 million was received on the first anniversary of the closing date in July 2021, and $3.5 million is being received through the purchase of turbocharger goods and services under the supply agreement. We received cash proceeds of $1.5 million and $0.7 million under the supply agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
March 2020 Disposition
In March 2020, we completed the sale of certain contract operations customer service agreements and approximately 200 compressors, comprising approximately 35,000 horsepower, used to provide compression services under those agreements as well as other assets used to support the operations. We allocated customer-related and contract-based intangible assets and goodwill based on a ratio of the horsepower sold relative to the total horsepower of the asset group. We recognized a gain on the sale of $3.2 million in (gain) loss on sale of assets, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
4. Discontinued Operations
In 2015 we completed the Spin-off. In order to effect the Spin-off and govern our relationship with Exterran Corporation after the Spin-off, we entered into several agreements with Exterran Corporation, including a tax matters agreement, which governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of Exterran Corporation and us with respect to certain tax matters.
As of each of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $7.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits (including interest and penalties) related to Exterran Corporation operations prior to the Spin-off recorded to noncurrent liabilities associated with discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We had an offsetting indemnification asset of $7.9 million related to these unrecognized tax benefits recorded to noncurrent assets associated with discontinued operations as of each of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

7. Goodwill
Our goodwill was recognized in connection with the Elite Acquisition and represents the excess of consideration transferred over the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. All of the goodwill was allocated to our contract operations reporting unit. We review the carrying amount of our goodwill in the fourth quarter of every year, or whenever indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine if the carrying amount of our contract operations reporting unit exceeds its fair value, including the goodwill. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic caused a significant deterioration in global macroeconomic conditions, including a collapse in the demand for oil coupled with an oversupply of oil, which commenced substantial spending cuts by our customers and a decline in production. This global response to the pandemic significantly impacted our market capitalization and estimates of future revenues and cash flows, which triggered the need to perform a quantitative test of the fair value of our contract operations reporting unit as of March 31, 2020. The quantitative test determined that the carrying amount of our contract operations reporting unit exceeded its fair value and we recorded a goodwill impairment loss of $99.8 million during the first quarter of 2020.
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, which have a significant impact on the fair value determined. We determined the fair value of our reporting unit using an equal weighting of both the expected present value of future cash flows and a market approach. The present value of future cash flows was estimated using our most recent forecast and the weighted average cost of capital. The market approach uses a market multiple on the earnings before interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense of comparable peer companies. Significant estimates for our reporting unit included in our impairment analysis were our cash flow forecasts, our estimate of the market’s weighted average cost of capital and market multiples.
8. Hosting Arrangements
In the fourth quarter of 2018 we began a process and technology transformation project that will, among other things, upgrade or replace our existing ERP, supply chain and inventory management systems and expand the remote monitoring capabilities of our compression fleet. Included in this project are hosting arrangements that are service contracts related to the cloud migration of our ERP system and cloud services for our new mobile workforce, telematics and inventory management tools.
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $9.8 million and $7.7 million, respectively, of capitalized implementation costs related to our hosting arrangements that are service contracts included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accumulated amortization was $0.5 million and $0.3 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We recorded $0.1 million of amortization expense to SG&A in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and $0.2 million and $0.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Credit Facility
As of June 30, 2021, there were $12.5 million letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility and the applicable margin on borrowings outstanding was 2.4%. The weighted average annual interest rate on the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility, excluding the effect of interest rate swaps, was 2.5% and 2.7% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We incurred $0.4 million in commitment fees on the daily unused amount of the Credit Facility during each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and $1.0 million and $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We must maintain certain consolidated financial ratios as defined in our Credit Facility agreement (see below). As of June 30, 2021, the ratio requirements did not constrain our undrawn capacity and as such, $421.0 million was available for additional borrowings. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility agreement.
Amendment No. 3
On February 22, 2021, we amended our Credit Facility to, among other things:
● | reduce the aggregate revolving commitment from $1.25 billion to $750.0 million, and |
● | adjust the maximum Senior Secured Debt to EBITDA and Total Debt to EBITDA ratios, as defined in the Credit Facility agreement, to the following: |
Senior Secured Debt to EBITDA |
| 3.00 to 1.0 |
Total Debt to EBITDA |
|
|
Through fiscal year 2022 | 5.75 to 1.0 | |
January 1, 2023 through September 30, 2023 |
| 5.50 to 1.0 |
Thereafter (1) |
| 5.25 to 1.0 |
(1) | Subject to a temporary increase to 5.50 to 1.0 for any quarter during which an acquisition satisfying certain thresholds is completed and for the two quarters immediately following such quarter. |
We incurred $1.8 million in transaction costs related to Amendment No. 3, which were included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Facility. In addition, we wrote off $4.9 million of unamortized deferred financing costs as a result of the amendment, which was recorded to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

2022 Notes Redemption
In April 2020, the 2022 Notes were redeemed at 100% of their $350.0 million aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest of $10.5 million with borrowings under the Credit Facility. A debt extinguishment loss of $4.0 million related to the redemption was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
10. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
Components of comprehensive income (loss) are net income (loss) and all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from transactions with owners. Our accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) consists of changes in the fair value of our interest rate swap derivative instruments, net of tax, which are designated as cash flow hedges.

11. Equity
At-the-Market Continuous Equity Offering Program
On February 23, 2021, we entered into the ATM Agreement, pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our common stock from time to time for an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million. We intend to use the net proceeds of these offerings, after deducting sales agent fees and offering expenses, for general corporate purposes. Offerings of common stock pursuant to the ATM Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale of all shares of common stock subject to the ATM Agreement or (ii) the termination of the ATM Agreement by us or by each of the sales agents. Any sales agent may also terminate the ATM Agreement but only with respect to itself.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we sold 357,148 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $3.4 million pursuant to the ATM Agreement.

We do not disclose the aggregate transaction price for the remaining performance obligations for aftermarket services as there are no contracts with customers with an original contract term that is greater than one year.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contract Assets
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our receivables from contracts with customers, net of allowance for credit losses, were $96.0 million and $95.6 million, respectively.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Trade accounts receivable are due from companies of varying size engaged principally in oil and natural gas activities throughout the U.S. We review the financial condition of customers prior to extending credit and generally do not obtain collateral for trade receivables. Payment terms are on a short-term basis and in accordance with industry practice. We consider this credit risk to be limited due to these companies’ financial resources, the nature of the products and services we provide and the terms of our customer agreements.
Due to the short-term nature of our trade receivables, we consider the amortized cost to be the same as the carrying amount of the receivable, excluding the allowance for credit losses. We recognize an allowance for credit losses when a receivable is recorded, even when the risk of loss is remote. We utilize an aging schedule to determine our allowance for credit losses and measure expected credit losses on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. We rely primarily on ratings assigned by external rating agencies and credit monitoring services to assess credit risk and aggregate customers first by low, medium or high risk asset pools, and then by delinquency status. We also consider the internal risk associated with geographic location and the services we provide to the customer when determining asset pools. If a customer does not share similar risk characteristics with other customers, we evaluate the customer’s outstanding trade receivables for expected credit losses on an individual basis. Trade receivables evaluated individually are not included in our collective assessment. Each reporting period, we reassess our customers’ risk profiles and determine the appropriate asset pool classification, or perform individual assessments of expected credit losses, based on the customers’ risk characteristics at the reporting date.
The contractual life of our trade receivables is primarily 30 days based on the payment terms specified in the contract. Contract operations services are generally billed monthly at the beginning of the month in which service is being provided. Aftermarket services billings typically occur when parts are delivered or service is completed. Loss rates are separately determined for each asset pool based on the length of time a trade receivable has been outstanding. We analyze two years of internal historical loss data, including the effects of prepayments, write-offs and subsequent recoveries, to determine our historical loss experience. Our historical loss information is a relevant data point for estimating credit losses, as the data closely aligns with trade receivables due from our customers. Ratings assigned by external rating agencies and credit monitoring services consider past performance and forecasts of future economic conditions in assessing credit risk. We routinely update our historical loss data to reflect our customers’ current risk profile, to ensure the historical data and loss rates are relevant to the pool of assets for which we are estimating expected credit losses.

Contract Liabilities
Freight billings to customers for the transport of compression assets, customer-specified modifications of compression assets and milestone billings on aftermarket services often result in a contract liability. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our contract liabilities were $3.6 million and $4.6 million, respectively, which were included in deferred revenue and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The decrease in the contract liability balance during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to $5.0 million recognized as revenue during the period, partially offset by revenue deferral of $4.1 million, each primarily related to freight billings and milestone billings on aftermarket services.
13. Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairment
We review long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangibles that are being amortized, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, including the removal of compressors from our active fleet, indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
In the first quarter of 2020, we determined that the impairment of our contract operations reporting unit’s goodwill was an indicator of potential impairment of the carrying amount of our long-lived assets, including our compressor fleet and associated customer and contract-based intangible assets. Accordingly, we performed a quantitative impairment test of our long-lived assets, by which we determined that they were not also impaired. No similar impairment has been indicated subsequent to the first quarter of 2020.
Compression Fleet
We periodically review the future deployment of our idle compression assets for units that are not of the type, configuration, condition, make or model that are cost efficient to maintain and operate. Based on these reviews, we determine that certain idle compressors should be retired from the active fleet. The retirement of these units from the active fleet triggers a review of these assets for impairment and as a result of our review, we may record an asset impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value. The fair value of each unit is estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use.
In connection with our review of our idle compression assets, we evaluate for impairment idle units that were culled from our fleet in prior years and are available for sale. Based on that review, we may reduce the expected proceeds from disposition and record additional impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value.

14. Restructuring Charges
During the first quarter of 2020, we completed restructuring activities to further streamline our organization and more fully align our teams to improve our customer service and profitability. We incurred severance costs of $1.7 million related to these activities during the first quarter of 2020. No additional costs will be incurred for this organizational restructuring.
In response to the decreased activity level of our customers that resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in the second quarter of 2020, we have incurred severance costs of $6.8 million to right-size our business. We do not expect to incur additional material severance costs under this restructuring plan.
During the third quarter of 2020, a plan to dispose of certain non-core properties was approved by management. We have incurred $1.5 million of restructuring costs as a result of our property disposals and do not expect to incur additional material property disposal costs under this restructuring plan.
The severance and property disposal costs incurred under the above restructuring plans were recorded to restructuring charges in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

15. Income Taxes
Valuation Allowance
The amount of our deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted if projections of future taxable income are reduced or objective negative evidence in the form of a three-year cumulative loss is present or both. Should we no longer have a level of sustained profitability, excluding nonrecurring charges, we will have to rely more on our future projections of taxable income to determine if we have an adequate source of taxable income for the realization of our deferred tax assets, namely net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. This may result in the need to record a valuation allowance against all or a portion of our deferred tax assets.
20
Effective Tax Rate
The year-to-date effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 differed significantly from our statutory rate primarily due to unrecognized tax benefits and the limitation on executive compensation.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
As of June 30, 2021, we believe it is reasonably possible that $2.8 million of our unrecognized tax benefits, including penalties, interest and discontinued operations, will be reduced prior to June 30, 2022 due to the settlement of audits or the expiration of statutes of limitations or both. However, due to the uncertain and complex application of the tax regulations, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters may result in liabilities that could materially differ from this estimate.
16. Earnings per Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines net income (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, basic net income (loss) per common share is determined by dividing net income (loss), after deducting amounts allocated to participating securities, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Participating securities include unvested restricted stock and stock-settled restricted stock units that have nonforfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid. During periods of net loss, only distributed earnings (dividends) are allocated to participating securities, as participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to participate in our undistributed losses.
Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental common stock equivalents attributed to outstanding options, performance-based restricted stock units and stock to be issued pursuant to our ESPP unless their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The following table shows the calculation for net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, which is used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share:

17. Derivatives
We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in the variable interest rate of our Credit Facility. We use derivative instruments to manage our exposure to fluctuations in this variable interest rate and thereby minimize the risks and costs associated with financial activities. We do not use derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
As of June 30, 2021, we had $300.0 million notional value of interest rate swaps outstanding, which expire in March 2022 and were entered into to offset changes in expected cash flows due to fluctuations in the associated variable interest rates. The counterparties to these derivative agreements are major financial institutions. We monitor the credit quality of these financial institutions and do not expect nonperformance by any counterparty, although such nonperformance could have a material adverse effect on us. We have no collateral posted for our derivative instruments.
We have designated our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged transaction affects earnings. At that time, amounts are reclassified into earnings to interest expense, the same statement of operations line item to which the earnings effect of the hedged item is recorded. Cash flows from derivatives designated as hedges are classified in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows under the same category as the cash flows from the underlying assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions unless the derivative contract contains a significant financing element, in which case, the cash settlements for these derivatives are classified as cash flows from financing activities.
22
We expect the hedging relationship to be highly effective as the interest rate swap terms substantially coincide with the hedged item and are expected to offset changes in expected cash flows due to fluctuations in the variable rate. We estimate that $3.9 million of the deferred pre-tax loss attributable to interest rate swaps included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 30, 2021 will be reclassified into earnings as interest expense at then-current values during the next 12 months as the underlying hedged transactions occur.
As of June 30, 2021, the weighted average effective fixed interest rate of our interest rate swaps was 1.8%.

18. Fair Value Measurements
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
On a quarterly basis, our interest rate swap derivative instruments are valued based on the income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including LIBOR forward curves. These fair value measurements are classified as Level 2. The following table presents our derivative position measured at fair value on a recurring basis, with pricing levels as of the date of valuation:

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Goodwill
In the first quarter of 2020, we determined that the significant deterioration in global macroeconomic conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic was an indicator of potential impairment of our goodwill, and we performed a quantitative impairment test as of March 31, 2020 that resulted in a $99.8 million impairment of our goodwill. Significant estimates used in our impairment analysis included cash flow forecasts, our estimate of the market’s weighted average cost of capital and market multiples, which are Level 3 inputs. See Note 7 (“Goodwill”) for further details of the valuation methodology used in connection with the goodwill impairment.
Compressors
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded nonrecurring fair value measurements related to our idle and previously-culled compressors. Our estimate of the compressors’ fair value was primarily based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold and/or a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. We discounted the expected proceeds, net of selling and other carrying costs, using a weighted average disposal period of four years. These fair value measurements are classified as Level 3. The following table presents the fair value of our compressors impaired during 2021 and 2020:
(in thousands) |

| December 31, 2020 | ||
Impaired compressors | $ | 3,462 | $ | 19,046 |
The significant unobservable inputs used to develop the above fair value measurements were weighted by the relative fair value of the compressors being measured. Additional quantitative information related to our significant unobservable inputs follows:
| Range |

See Note 13 (“Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairment”) for further details.
Other Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of our cash, receivables and payables approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of those instruments.
The carrying amount of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility approximates fair value due to its variable interest rate. The fair value of these outstanding borrowings is a Level 3 measurement.
The fair value of our fixed rate debt is estimated using yields observable in active markets, which are Level 2 inputs, and was as follows:

20. Commitments and Contingencies
Performance Bonds
In the normal course of business we have issued performance bonds to various state authorities that ensure payment of certain obligations. We have also issued a bond to protect our 401(k) retirement plan against losses caused by acts of fraud or dishonesty. The bonds have expiration dates in 2021 through the fourth quarter of 2022, and maximum potential future payments of $2.2 million. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all obligations to which the performance bonds pertain.
Tax Matters
We are subject to a number of state and local taxes that are not income-based. As many of these taxes are subject to audit by the taxing authorities, it is possible that an audit could result in additional taxes due. We accrue for such additional taxes when we determine that it is probable that we have incurred a liability and we can reasonably estimate the amount of the liability. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we accrued $5.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively, for the outcomes of non-income-based tax audits. We do not expect that the ultimate resolutions of these audits will result in a material variance from the amounts accrued. We do not accrue for unasserted claims for tax audits unless we believe the assertion of a claim is probable, it is probable that it will be determined that the claim is owed and we can reasonably estimate the claim or range of the claim. We believe the likelihood is remote that the impact of potential unasserted claims from non-income-based tax audits could be material to our consolidated financial position, but it is possible that the resolution of future audits could be material to our consolidated results of operations or cash flows.
25
Subject to the provisions of the tax matters agreement between Exterran Corporation and us, both parties agreed to indemnify the primary obligor of any return for tax periods beginning before and ending before or after the Spin-off (including any ongoing or future amendments and audits for these returns) for the portion of the tax liability (including interest and penalties) that relates to their respective operations reported in the filing. The tax contingencies mentioned above relate to tax matters for which we are responsible in managing the audit. As of December 31, 2020, we had an indemnification liability (including penalties and interest), in addition to the tax contingency above, of $1.6 million for our share of non-income-based tax contingencies related to audits being managed by Exterran Corporation. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, these audits were settled and our indemnification liability was reduced to zero.
Insurance Matters
Our business can be hazardous, involving unforeseen circumstances such as uncontrollable flows of natural gas or well fluids and fires or explosions. As is customary in our industry, we review our safety equipment and procedures and carry insurance against some, but not all, risks of our business. Our insurance coverage includes property damage, general liability and commercial automobile liability and other coverage we believe is appropriate. We believe that our insurance coverage is customary for the industry and adequate for our business; however, losses and liabilities not covered by insurance would increase our costs.
Additionally, we are substantially self-insured for workers’ compensation and employee group health claims in view of the relatively high per-incident deductibles we absorb under our insurance arrangements for these risks. Losses up to the deductible amounts are estimated and accrued based upon known facts, historical trends and industry averages. We are also self-insured for property damage to our offshore assets.
Litigation and Claims
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, we believe that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and arbitration proceedings, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends.
21. Related Party Transactions
In connection with the closing of the Elite Acquisition, we issued 21.7 million shares of our common stock to JDH Capital, an affiliate of our customer Hilcorp. As long as JDH Capital, together with affiliates of Hilcorp, owns at least 7.5% of our outstanding common stock, it will have the right to designate one director to our Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2021, JDH Capital owned 11.1% of our outstanding common stock.
Jeffery D. Hildebrand, founder and executive chairman of Hilcorp, was appointed Director in August 2019 and served until his resignation on July 29, 2020, at which time Jason C. Rebrook, President of Hilcorp, was appointed Director to fill the resulting vacancy. Mr. Hildebrand did not receive compensation in his role as Director and Mr. Rebrook received no compensation in his role as Director in 2020. In December 2020, the Board of Directors voted to approve the payment of Director cash and equity compensation to Mr. Rebrook beginning in 2021.
Revenue from Hilcorp and affiliates was $9.6 million and $10.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $19.1 million and $20.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Accounts receivable, net due from Hilcorp and affiliates was $4.4 million and $3.9 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

22. Segments
We manage our business segments primarily based on the type of product or service provided. We have two segments which we operate within the U.S.: contract operations and aftermarket services. The contract operations segment primarily provides natural gas compression services to meet specific customer requirements. The aftermarket services segment provides a full range of services to support the compression needs of customers, from parts sales and normal maintenance services to full operation of a customer’s owned assets.
We evaluate the performance of our segments based on gross margin for each segment. Revenue includes only sales to external customers.

23. Subsequent Events
July 2021 Dispositions
In July 2021, we completed sales consisting of certain contract operations customer service agreements and approximately 575 compressors, comprising approximately 100,000 horsepower, used to provide compression services under those agreements, as well as other assets used to support the operations. We allocated customer-related and contract-based intangible assets based on a ratio of the horsepower sold relative to the total horsepower of the asset group. Total cash consideration for the sales will approximate $61.0 million and a gain on the sales of approximately $13.5 million will be recognized in the third quarter of 2021.
The proceeds received in July from the sales were used to repay borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility. On July 1, 2021, we dedesignated $125.0 million notional value of our interest rate swaps. Amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss will remain there until the expected cash flows impact earnings or become probable of not occurring. Changes in the value of the dedesignated interest rate swaps will be recorded in earnings.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in conjunction with our 2020 Form 10-K.
Overview
We are an energy infrastructure company with a pure-play focus on midstream natural gas compression. We are the leading provider of natural gas compression services to customers in the oil and natural gas industry throughout the U.S. and a leading supplier of aftermarket services to customers that own compression equipment in the U.S. We operate in two business segments: contract operations and aftermarket services. Our contract operations services primarily include designing, sourcing, owning, installing, operating, servicing, repairing and maintaining our owned fleet of natural gas compression equipment to provide natural gas compression services to our customers. In our aftermarket services business, we sell parts and components and provide operations, maintenance, overhaul and reconfiguration services to customers who own compression equipment.
Recent Business Developments
February 2021 Disposition
On February 10, 2021, we completed the sale of certain contract operations customer service agreements and approximately 300 compressors, comprising approximately 40,000 horsepower, used to provide compression services under those agreements as well as other assets used to support the operations. We recorded a gain on the sale of $6.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. See Note 3 (“Business Transactions”) to our Financial Statements for further details of this transaction.
COVID-19 Pandemic
Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic caused a deterioration in global macroeconomic conditions, including a collapse in the demand for natural gas and crude oil coupled with an oversupply of crude oil, which led to substantial spending cuts by our customers and a decline in natural gas and crude oil production. This global response to the pandemic has adversely impacted our revenue and cash flows. Though demand has shown improvement since the lows reached in the second quarter of 2020 as economies have reopened and vaccine rollout is underway globally, the potential for additional surges and variants of the disease remains and as such, uncertainty still exists around the timing and magnitude of a full economic recovery.
The key driver of our business is the production of U.S. natural gas and crude oil. Changes in natural gas and crude oil production spending therefore typically result in changes in demand for our services. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s July 2021 Short-Term Energy Outlook, U.S. dry natural gas and crude oil production is expected to increase 1% and decline 2%, respectively, in 2021 as producers limit drilling and completion activity to achieve maintenance levels of production and cash flows in the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. U.S. production of both commodities is expected to increase in 2022 at a rate of 2% for dry natural gas and 7% for crude oil.
Our customers substantially cut spending and activity beginning in the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the significant declines in natural gas and crude oil prices and demand. Our horsepower, utilization and revenue have experienced declines and are expected to remain at lower levels in 2021 as compared to the first quarter of 2020 and periods prior in both our contract operations and aftermarket services businesses. However, U.S. onshore activity is on the rise, which we expect will provide prospects for growth in our businesses beginning as early as the second half of 2021.
29
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results is primarily visible in the $99.8 million non-cash impairment of goodwill and the impairment’s resulting $22.7 million tax benefit in the first quarter of 2020. Revenue, cost of sales, SG&A, long-lived and other asset impairment and restructuring charges have also been significantly impacted. See “Financial Results of Operations” below and Note 7 (“Goodwill”), Note 13 (“Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairment”) and Note 14 (“Restructuring Charges”) to our Financial Statements for further discussion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the non-GAAP financial measure of gross margin.
We define gross margin as total revenue less cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization). Gross margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary measure used by our management to evaluate the results of revenue and cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization), which are key components of our operations. We believe gross margin is important because it focuses on the current operating performance of our operations and excludes the impact of the prior historical costs of the assets acquired or constructed that are utilized in those operations, the indirect costs associated with our SG&A activities, our financing methods and income taxes. In addition, depreciation and amortization may not accurately reflect the costs required to maintain and replenish the operational usage of our assets and therefore may not portray the costs of current operating activity. As an indicator of our operating performance, gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our gross margin may not be comparable to a similarly-titled measure of other entities because other entities may not calculate gross margin in the same manner.
Gross margin has certain material limitations associated with its use as compared to net income (loss). These limitations are primarily due to the exclusion of SG&A, depreciation and amortization, impairments, restructuring charges, interest expense, debt extinguishment loss, (gain) loss on sale of assets, net, other (income) loss, net and provision for (benefit from) income taxes. Because we intend to finance a portion of our operations through borrowings, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue. Additionally, because we use capital assets, depreciation expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue and SG&A is necessary to support our operations and required corporate activities. To compensate for these limitations, management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to other GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of our performance.

Results of Operations: Summary of Results
Revenue
Revenue was $195.6 million and $220.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and $391.0 million and $470.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decreases in revenue during these periods were due to decreases in revenue from our contract operations and aftermarket services businesses. See “Contract Operations” and “Aftermarket Services” below for further details.
Net Income (Loss)
We had net income of $8.8 million and a net loss of $30.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and net income of $12.9 million and a net loss of $91.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The change from net loss to net income during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily driven by decreases in long-lived and other asset impairment, depreciation and amortization, debt extinguishment loss and SG&A as well as the change from a net loss to a net gain on sale of assets. These changes were partially offset by a decrease in gross margin from our contract operations business and the change from a benefit from to a provision for income taxes.
The change from net loss to net income during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily driven by decreases in goodwill impairment, long-lived and other asset impairment, depreciation and amortization and SG&A as well as an increase in gain on sale of assets, net. These changes were partially offset by decreases in gross margin from our contract operations and aftermarket services businesses and the change from a benefit from to a provision for income taxes.

Revenue decreased primarily due to returns of horsepower amidst the market downturn and the strategic disposition of horsepower in 2020 and the first quarter of 2021.
Gross margin decreased due to the decrease in revenue, however, the decline was moderately mitigated by the decrease in cost of sales. The lower operating horsepower discussed above drove a decrease in maintenance, freight and other operating expenses. The impact of horsepower returns was partially offset by an increase in unit redeployment in the second quarter of 2021, which in turn led to an increase in mobilization expense.

Revenue decreased primarily due to the impact of the sale of our turbocharger business in July 2020. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase in parts sales as a result of an increase in customer demand beginning in the second quarter of 2021.
Despite the decrease in revenue, gross margin improved due to a larger decrease in cost of sales. The decrease in cost of sales was primarily the result of the sale of our turbocharger business. Excluding the impact of the July 2020 Disposition, cost of sales was flat quarter over quarter and gross margin increased as a result of the increase in parts sales revenue mentioned above.

Selling, general and administrative. The decrease in SG&A was primarily due to a $2.0 million decrease in bad debt expense, a $0.4 million decrease in sales and use tax and a $0.3 million decrease in compensation and benefits.
Depreciation and amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily due to a decrease in depreciation expense resulting from assets reaching the end of their depreciable lives, the impact of compression and other asset impairments and sales during 2020 and early 2021 and a decrease in amortization expense as certain intangible assets reached the end of their useful lives. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense associated with fixed asset additions during 2020 and early 2021.
Long-lived and other asset impairment. We periodically review the future deployment of our idle compressors for units that are not of the type, configuration, condition, make or model that are cost efficient to maintain and operate. In addition, we evaluate for impairment idle units that have been culled from our compression fleet in prior years and are available for sale. See Note 13 (“Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairment”) to our Financial Statements for further details. The following table presents the results of our compression fleet impairment review, as recorded in our contract operations segment:

Restructuring charges. Restructuring charges of $0.7 million and $2.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, primarily consisted of severance costs related to our pandemic restructuring activities. See Note 14 (“Restructuring Charges”) to our Financial Statements for further details.
Interest expense. Interest expense was flat due to an increase in the weighted average effective interest rate and an offsetting decrease in the average outstanding balance of long-term debt.
Debt extinguishment loss. We recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $4.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of the redemption of the 2022 Notes. See Note 9 (“Long-Term Debt”) to our Financial Statements for further details.
(Gain) loss on sale of assets, net. The change in (gain) loss on sale of assets, net was primarily due to a $2.1 million gain on compression assets sold during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to a $2.9 million loss on compression assets sold during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Goodwill impairment. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded goodwill impairment of $99.8 million due to the decline in the fair value of our contract operations reporting unit. See Note 7 (“Goodwill”) to our Financial Statements for further details.
Restructuring charges. Restructuring charges of $1.6 million and $4.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, primarily consisted of severance costs related to our organizational and pandemic restructuring activities. See Note 14 (“Restructuring Charges”) to our Financial Statements for further details.
Interest expense. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the $4.9 million write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to Amendment No. 3 and an increase in the weighted average effective interest rate, partially offset by a decrease in the average outstanding balance of long-term debt.
35
Debt extinguishment loss. We recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $4.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of the redemption of the 2022 Notes. See Note 9 (“Long-Term Debt”) to our Financial Statements for further details.
Gain on sale of assets, net. Our net gain on sale of assets during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily the result of the $6.0 million gain on the February 2021 Disposition and a $6.4 million gain recognized on other compression asset sales. Our net gain on sale of assets during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the $3.2 million gain recorded on the March 2020 Disposition, which was partially offset by a $2.8 million loss on other compression assets sold. See Note 3 (“Business Transactions”) to our Financial Statements for further details of these sales.
Other income, net. The increase in other income, net was primarily due to a $0.7 million decrease in indemnification expense remitted pursuant to our tax matters agreement with Exterran Corporation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Requirements
Our contract operations business is capital intensive, requiring significant investment to maintain and upgrade existing operations. Our capital spending is primarily dependent on the demand for our contract operations services and the availability of the type of compression equipment required for us to provide those contract operations services to our customers. Our capital requirements have primarily consisted of, and we anticipate will continue to consist of, the following:
● | growth capital expenditures, which are made to expand or to replace partially or fully depreciated assets or to expand the operating capacity or revenue-generating capabilities of existing or new assets; and |
● | maintenance capital expenditures, which are made to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and related cash flows, further extending the useful lives of the assets. |
The majority of our growth capital expenditures are related to the acquisition cost of new compressors when our idle equipment cannot be reconfigured to economically fulfill a project’s requirements and the new compressor is expected to generate economic returns over its expected useful life that exceed our cost of capital. In addition to newly-acquired compressors, growth capital expenditures include the upgrading of major components on an existing compression package where the current configuration of the compression package is no longer in demand and the compressor is not likely to return to an operating status without the capital expenditures. These expenditures substantially modify the operating parameters of the compression package such that it can be used in applications for which it previously was not suited.
Maintenance capital expenditures are related to major overhauls or significant components of a compression package such as the engine, compressor and cooler, which return the components to a like-new condition but do not modify the application for which the compression package was designed.
36
Projected Capital Spend
We currently plan to spend approximately $80 million to $106 million in capital expenditures during 2021, primarily consisting of approximately $30 million to $50 million for growth capital expenditures and approximately $40 million to $45 million for maintenance capital expenditures. We anticipate decreased 2021 capital expenditures, particularly growth capital expenditures, as compared to 2020 due to the impact that we expect the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have on customer demand.
Financial Resources
Overview
Our ability to fund operations, finance capital expenditures and pay dividends depends on the levels of our operating cash flows and access to the capital and credit markets. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from our operations and our borrowing availability under our Credit Facility. Our cash flow is affected by numerous factors including prices and demand for our services, oil and natural gas exploration and production spending, conditions in the financial markets and other factors. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic caused a deterioration in global macroeconomic conditions, which adversely impacted our estimates of future revenues and cash flows. However, we have no near-term maturities and believe that our operating cash flows and borrowings under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our future liquidity needs.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.
Credit Facility
During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Credit Facility had an average daily balance of $345.3 million and $675.5 million, respectively. The weighted average annual interest rate on the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility, excluding the effect of interest rate swaps, was 2.5% and 2.7% at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, there were $12.5 million letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility.
We must maintain certain consolidated financial ratios as defined in our Credit Facility agreement (see below). As of June 30, 2021, the ratio requirements did not constrain our undrawn capacity and as such, $421.0 million was available for additional borrowings. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility agreement.
Amendment No. 3. On February 22, 2021, we amended our Credit Facility to, among other things:
● | reduce the aggregate revolving commitment from $1.25 billion to $750.0 million, and |
● | adjust the maximum Senior Secured Debt to EBITDA and Total Debt to EBITDA ratios, as defined in the Credit Facility agreement, to the following: |
Senior Secured Debt to EBITDA |
| 3.00 to 1.0 |
Total Debt to EBITDA |
|
|
Through fiscal year 2022 | 5.75 to 1.0 | |
January 1, 2023 through September 30, 2023 |
| 5.50 to 1.0 |
Thereafter (1) |
| 5.25 to 1.0 |
(1) | Subject to a temporary increase to 5.50 to 1.0 for any quarter during which an acquisition satisfying certain thresholds is completed and for the two quarters immediately following such quarter. |
See Note 9 (“Long-Term Debt”) to our Financial Statements for further details on Amendment No. 3.

At-the-Market Continuous Equity Offering Program
On February 23, 2021, we entered into the ATM Agreement whereby we may sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50.0 million. We intend to use the net proceeds of these offerings for general corporate purposes. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we sold 357,148 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $3.4 million pursuant to the ATM Agreement. See Note 11 (“Equity”) to our Financial Statements for further details on the ATM Agreement.
Business Dispositions
In July 2021, we completed sales of compressors and other assets for which total consideration will approximate $61.0 million. The proceeds received in July from the sales were used to repay borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility. See Note 23 (“Subsequent Events”) to our Financial Statements for further details on these sales.
Cash Flows
Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized below:
| Six Months Ended | |||||
June 30, | ||||||
(in thousands) |
| 2021 |
| 2020 | ||
Net cash provided by (used in): |
|
|
|

Investing activities |

| (85,866) | ||
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 2,215 | $ | (1,480) |
Operating Activities
The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to reduced cash inflows from revenue, deferred revenue and accounts receivable, as well as increased cash outflow for inventory, partially offset by decreased cash outflows for cost of sales, SG&A expenses, accounts payable and other liabilities, interest paid on long-term debt and restructuring charges.
Investing Activities
The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to a $74.5 million decrease in capital expenditures and a $13.1 million increase in proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment, partially offset by a $5.4 million decrease in proceeds from business dispositions.
Financing Activities
The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to a $36.5 million increase in net repayments of long-term debt, partially offset by $3.4 million of net proceeds from the issuance of common stock under the ATM Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Dividends
On July 28, 2021, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.145 per share of common stock to be paid on August 16, 2021 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 9, 2021. Any future determinations to pay cash dividends to our stockholders will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations and credit and loan agreements in effect at that time and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of our 2020 Form 10-K. Our exposures as of June 30, 2021 have not changed materially since December 31, 2020.

This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act included in this Quarterly Report as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2.
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that we are able to record, process, summarize and report the information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based on the evaluation, as of June 30, 2021 our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and made known to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, on a timely basis to ensure that it is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, we believe that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and arbitration proceedings, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes or updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2020 Form 10-K.
