The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all of the normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the interim financial information set forth herein have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results of a full year or of future years.

 

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the most recent annual financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Enservco Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2013. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests.

 

Accounts Receivable 

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers. The Company provides a reserve for doubtful accounts based on a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. The provision for uncollectible amounts is continually reviewed and adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate to cover future losses. The allowance is management's best estimate of uncollectible amounts and is determined based on historical collection experience related to accounts receivable coupled with a review of the current status of existing receivables. The losses ultimately incurred could differ materially in the near term from the amounts estimated in determining the allowance. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $295,000 and $245,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded bad debt expense (net of recoveries) of $40,000 and $50,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded bad debt expense (net of recoveries) of $44,163 and $170,397, respectively.     

 

Inventory 

 

Inventory consists primarily of propane, diesel fuel and chemicals used in the servicing of oil wells and is carried at the lower of cost or market in accordance with the first in, first out method. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. The Company looks primarily to the undiscounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired. No impairments were recorded during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment consists of (1) trucks, trailers and pickups; (2) trucks that are in various stages of fabrication; (3) real property which includes land and buildings used for office and shop facilities and wells used for the disposal of water; and (4) other equipment such as tools used for maintaining and repairing vehicles, office furniture and fixtures, and computer equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company charges repairs and maintenance against income when incurred and capitalizes renewals and betterments, which extend the remaining useful life or expands the capacity or efficiency of the assets. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 5 to 30 years.

 

Leases

 

The Company conducts a major part of its operations from leased facilities. Each of these leases is accounted for as an operating lease. Normally, the Company records rental expense on its operating leases over the lease term as it becomes payable. If rental payments are not made on a straight-line basis, in accordance with the terms of the agreement, the Company records a deferred rent expense and recognizes the rental expense on a straight-line basis throughout the lease term. The majority of the Company’s facility leases contain renewal clauses and expire through August 2017. In most cases, management expects that in the normal course of business, leases will be renewed or replaced by other leases.

The Company is leasing a number of trucks and equipment in the normal course of business, which are recorded as operating leases. The Company records rental expense on its equipment operating leases over the lease term as it becomes payable; there are no rent escalation terms associated with these equipment leases. On a number of the equipment leases, purchase options exist allowing the Company to purchase the leased equipment at the end of the lease term, based on the market price of the equipment at the time of the lease termination and exercised purchase option.

 

The Company has also in the past entered into several capital leases in order to acquire trucks and equipment. Each of these leases allow the Company to retain title of the equipment leased through the lease agreements upon final payment of all principal and interest due. The Company records the assets and liabilities associated with these leases at the present value of the minimum lease payments per the lease agreement. The assets are classified as property and equipment and the liabilities are classified as current and long-term liabilities based on the contractual terms of the agreements and their associated maturities. There are no outstanding capital leases as of June 30, 2014.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed and determinable, services are provided, and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Earnings Per Share

 

Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the diluted weighted average number of common shares. The diluted weighted average number of common shares is computed using the treasury stock method for common stock that may be issued for outstanding stock options.

 

As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, there were outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire an aggregate of 3,917,063 and 8,867,226 shares of Company common stock, respectively, which have a potentially dilutive impact on earnings per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the incremental shares of the options and warrants to be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share had a dilutive impact on the Company’s earnings per share of 2,466,052 shares. Dilution is not permitted if there are net losses during the period. As such, the Company does not show dilutive earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2014. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the incremental shares of the options and warrants to be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share had a dilutive impact on the Company’s earnings per share of 3,589,220 and 3,444,113 shares, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Non-Competition Agreements. The non-competition agreements with the sellers of Heat Waves and Dillco have finite lives and were being amortized over a five-year period. All non-competition agreements were fully amortized as of June 30, 2013. Amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 totaled $15,000 and $30,000, respectively.

 

Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired, including identified intangible assets, recorded in connection with the acquisitions of Heat Waves. Goodwill is not amortized but is assessed for impairment at least annually.

 

Impairment. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount. Guidance allows a qualitative assessment of impairment to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill is impaired. If it is determined that it is more-likely-than-not that an impairment exists, accounting guidance requires that the impairment test be performed through the application of a two-step fair value test. The Company utilizes this method and recognizes a goodwill impairment loss in the event that the fair value of the reporting unit does not exceed its carrying value. During fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Company performed the annual impairment test and determined that no impairment existed. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not note any events that occurred, nor did any circumstances change, that would require goodwill to be assessed for impairment.

Loan Fees and Other Deferred Costs

 

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into loan agreements with its primary lending institutions. The majority of these lending agreements require origination fees and other fees in the course of executing the agreements. For all costs associated with the execution of the lending agreements, the Company recognizes these as capitalized costs and amortizes these costs over the term of the loan agreement using the effective interest method. These deferred costs are classified on the balance sheet as current or long-term assets based on the contractual terms of the loan agreements. All other costs not associated with the execution of the loan agreements are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes 

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities will be recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income taxes are classified as a net current or non-current asset or liability based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting purposes.  A deferred tax asset or liability that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting is classified according to the expected reversal date.  The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that it believes is more likely than not expected to be realized.

 

The Company accounts for any uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company measures the tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The application of income tax law is inherently complex. Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous.  As such, the Company is required to make many subjective assumptions and judgments regarding income tax exposures. Interpretations of and guidance surrounding income tax law and regulations change over time and may result in changes to the Company’s subjective assumptions and judgments which can materially affect amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income. The result of the reassessment of the Company’s tax positions did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

Interest and penalties associated with tax positions are recorded in the period assessed as general and administrative expenses. No interest or penalties have been assessed as of June 30, 2014. The Company files tax returns in the United States and in the states in which it conducts its business operations. The tax years 2010 through 2013 remain open to examination in the taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

 

Fair Value

 

The Company follows authoritative guidance that applies to all financial assets and liabilities required to be measured and reported on a fair value basis. The Company also applies the guidance to non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including non-competition agreements and goodwill. The guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.

 

Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company did not change its valuation techniques nor were there any transfers between hierarchy levels during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

 

 
9

 

 

The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:

 

 

Level 1:

Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2:

Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability; or

 

Level 3:

Unobservable pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model as a method for determining the estimated fair value for all stock options awarded to employees, officers, and directors. The expected term of the options is based upon evaluation of historical and expected further exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based upon U.S. Treasury rates at the date of grant with maturity dates approximately equal to the expected life of the grant. Volatility is determined upon historical volatility of our stock and adjusted if future volatility is expected to vary from historical experience. The dividend yield is assumed to be none as we have not paid dividends nor do we anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

The Company also uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of warrants. Expected volatility is based upon the weighted average of historical volatility over the contractual term of the warrant and implied volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based upon implied yield on a U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issue with a remaining term equal to the contractual term of the warrants. The dividend yield is assumed to be none.

 

Management Estimates 

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently Issued

 

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of a Component of an Entity.” ASU 2014-08 changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and requires new disclosures for discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Other than the additional presentation and disclosure requirements, the adoption of this guidance is not expected to have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The new standard is effective as of the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method or determined the effect of the standard on its financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or presentation thereof.

Revolving Line of Credit

 

The revolving line of credit has a maximum borrowing capacity of $5,000,000. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had borrowing availability of approximately $1.7 million. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there was no outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit.

 

Covenant Compliance

 

At June 30, 2014, the Company did not meet one of the financial covenants imposed by the PNC loan agreements which resulted in an event of default under the loan documents. PNC has waived the effect of this event of default for the period. As a result of the waiver, no default was declared. The Company believes that it is in line to meet the debt covenants and all other future covenant requirements.

 

Interest Rate Swap

 

On November 13, 2012 the Company entered into an Interest Rate Swap Agreement (“swap”) with PNC with a nominal value of $11,000,000 in order to hedge the cash flow requirements for the variable interest rate associated with the PNC Term Loan. The floating variable interest rate associated with the Term Loan debt of 4.25% plus LIBOR was swapped for a fixed rate of 4.25% plus 0.64% for the duration of the Term Loan.

 

At June 30, 2014, an updated valuation was performed resulting in a current liability of $8,370 (classified as Accounts payable and accrued liabilities) and a long-term asset of $9,627 (classified as Other Assets) associated with the swap. The Company determined that there was no ineffectiveness to the cash flow hedge and recorded changes in value to other comprehensive income.

Note 5 – Income Taxes

 

Income tax expense during interim periods is based on applying an estimated annual effective income tax rate to year-to-date income, plus any significant unusual or infrequently occurring items which are recorded in the interim period.  The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 differs from the amount that would be provided by applying the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate of 34% to pre-tax income primarily because of state income taxes and estimated permanent differences.

 

The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in various jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year.  The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is obtained, additional information becomes known or as the tax environment changes.

 

 

Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies

 

Operating Leases

 

As of June 30, 2014, the Company leases facilities and certain trucks and equipment under lease commitments that expire through August 2017. Future minimum lease commitments for these operating lease commitments are as follows:

2019

    96,000  

Thereafter

    152,000  

Total

  $ 2,012,842  

 

Equipment Purchase Commitments

 

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $8.8 million in outstanding purchase commitments that are necessary to complete the purchase and fabrication of sixteen hot oil trucks, eighteen frac heaters and one acid truck included in the Company’s 2014 CAPEX program. The Company intends to finance the purchase of this equipment through cash flow from operations and through a new revolving credit facility.

 

 

Note 7 – Warrants

 

In conjunction with the Private Placement and subordinated debt conversion in November 2012, the Company granted a one-half share warrant for every full share of common stock acquired by the equity investors or converted by Mr. Herman. As such, the Company granted warrants to purchase 4,960,714 shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable at $0.55 per share for a five year term. Each of the warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis. The warrants also provide that subject to various conditions, the holders have piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of the warrants.

 

In November 2012, the Company granted each of the principals of an existing investor relations firm warrants to acquire 112,500 shares of the Company’s common stock (a total of 225,000 shares) for the firms assistance in creating awareness for the Company’s Private Placement. The warrants are exercisable at $0.55 per share and expire 5 years from date of grant.

On November 29, 2012, the Company entered into an investor relations agreement with an unaffiliated firm. Pursuant to this agreement and in lieu of cash fees, the Company issued the firm 125,000 shares of common stock at $0.40 per share and granted the firm a warrant to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock at $0.40 per share through June 1, 2016. The warrants vest based on performance criteria and may be exercised on a cashless basis. The warrants also provide that subject to various conditions, the holders have piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of the warrants. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized an expense (through operating expense as general and administrative expense) of $60,047 attributable to these warrants.

Note 8 – Stockholder’s Equity

 

Stock Option Plans

 

On July 27, 2010 the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). The aggregate number of shares of common stock that may granted under the 2010 Plan is reset at the beginning of each year based on 15% of the number of shares of common stock then outstanding. As such, on January 1, 2014 the number of shares of common stock available under the 2010 Plan was reset to 5,223,380 shares based upon 34,822,536 shares outstanding on that date. Options are typically granted with an exercise price equal to the estimated fair value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant with a vesting schedule of one to three years and a contractual term of 5 years. As of June 30, 2014, there were 3,215,167 options outstanding under the 2010 Plan.

 

The “2008 Equity Plan” was established by Aspen Exploration in February 2008 and was retained by the Company after the Acquisition. An aggregate of 1,000,000 common shares were reserved for issuance under the 2008 Equity Plan. On July 27, 2010, the Company terminated the 2008 Equity Plan, although such termination did not terminate or otherwise affect the contractual rights of persons who hold options to acquire common stock under the 2008 Equity Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, 140,431 shares were terminated due to expiration on February 27, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there were 250,000 options outstanding under the 2008 Plan.

Note 9Related Party Transactions

 

On February 3, 2014, the Board of Directors approved the sale of two trucks and a trailer to an entity owned 50% by the Company’s Chairman for $50,000. The equipment had not been in service for over two years and was not economically feasible to repair and return to service. The Company was holding this equipment primarily for salvage purposes. At the time of the sale, the equipment had a net book value of $38,000 which resulted in a gain of $12,000. The Company believes the price paid was at least equal to the fair market value of the units had they been sold through auction or in the open market.

 

 

Note 10 – Subsequent Events

 

On August 1, 2014, the Company received approval from PNC Business Credit for a five-year, $40 million revolving credit facility. The facility will replace the Company’s current revolving credit facility with PNC bank and will allow the Company to borrow up to 85% of eligible receivables and 85% of the appraised value of trucks and equipment. The Company intends to use the facility to fund approximately $7 million of its $16 million 2014 capital expenditure program and to consolidate its existing PNC term loan and other equipment loans at a lower average interest rate. The remaining amount available under the facility will be used for future working capital needs or to supplement future capital expenditures. The new facility is expected to close in September 2014, subject to customary due diligence and amendment to our existing loan documentation with PNC Bank.

Management believes that, for the reasons set forth below, Adjusted EBITDA (even though a non-GAAP measure) is a valuable measurement of the Company's liquidity and performance and is consistent with the measurements offered by other companies in Enservco's industry. See further discussion of our use of EBITDA, the risks of non-GAAP measures, and the reconciliation to Net Income, below.

 

Overview:

 

As has been the Company’s history, revenues, gross margins, and EBITDA margins for the second quarter tend to decrease considerably from the first quarter as the demand for frac water heating services declines resulting in a larger portion of revenues being derived from recurring maintenance services such as hot oiling, acidizing and water hauling.

 

In addition to the seasonal decrease in frac water heating services, the second quarter of 2014 was impacted by a well site incident in the DJ basin which halted frac water services for one of our largest customers. Although it was determined that the accident was a result of a failure of equipment owned by another service provider, the work stoppage significantly impacted our revenues towards the end of the heating season. Further, the labor costs we incurred to retain our work force during this stoppage in anticipation of returning to work also impacted our profitability. On a positive note, hot oil revenues for the quarter continued to grow significantly as compared to the same quarter last year as a result of increased equipment utilization, geographic expansion, and additional heating capacity (over the last two years, the Company has focused a greater portion of its CAPEX programs on its recurring, less seasonal maintenance services of hot oiling and acidizing). We anticipate that the this positive comparative trend in hot oiling and acidizing services will continue in future quarters.

Despite the impact of the decline in frac water heating revenues during the second quarter, revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were significantly higher than the comparable period last year due to record revenues achieved during the first quarter of 2014. Additional frac water heating and hot oiling equipment, increased utilization of hot oiling equipment, and the impact of sharp increases in propane prices during the first quarter of this year all contributed to the six month revenue increase. Although showing a decline in 2014 as a percentage of revenues, gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA margins remain comparable to the prior year when adjusted for the impact of the increase in propane prices. This is due primarily to the mathematical impact of higher propane costs being passed along to customers with minimal markup thereby increasing revenues with no corresponding significant increase in profit.

 

Revenue Details:

 

Although the Company does not have segmented business operations, which would require segment reporting within the notes of its financial statements, we believe that revenue by service offering and revenue by geographic regions are important to understanding our business operations. The following tables set forth revenue by service offering and geographic region during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Revenues:

 

Service Offerings:

 

Well Enhancement Services: Well enhancement service revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 declined $841,000 (15%) from the comparable period last year primarily due to a $1.8 million decline in frac water heating revenues. A halt in frac water heating services by a large customer in the DJ Basin described above was the primary reason for the decline. In addition, customer demand for frac water heating services in the Eastern USA region was lower than the comparable period last year as one customer suspended its drilling program and another customer modified its frac design to reduce heating requirements during the spring season. The decrease in frac water heating revenue was partially mitigated by an $876,000 (52%) increase in hot oil service revenue and $58,000 (11%) increase in acidizing services over the same quarter last year. The increase in these revenues was primarily attributable to (i) four hot trucks added at the end of 2013, (ii) increased utilization of existing equipment, and (iii) expansion into Rock Springs, Wyoming which is a market with high demand for hot oiling and acidizing services.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, well enhancement service revenues increased $5.8 million or 26% over the comparable period last year. With the addition of new frac water heating and hot oiling equipment we were able to meet increased customer demand during the first quarter of 2014 in the Rocky Mountain and Eastern USA Regions and therefore offset the second quarter decline described above.   In addition, during the first quarter of 2014, due to a sudden and sharp increase in propane prices resulting in a change in billing for propane in our Rocky Mountain region that resulted in propane revenues increasing approximately $2.4 million from the comparable period last year

 

Fluid Management: Fluid management service revenues, which represent approximately 13% of our consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014, remained relatively flat at $2.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

Other: Other revenues consist of well site construction and roustabout services, which represent less than 2% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014, continue to remain an insignificant part of our business and are provided as ancillary services with our other services.

 

Geographic Areas:

 

For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, revenues in the Rocky Mountain Region, which primarily consist of well enhancement services, decreased $230,000 or 5% primarily due to the well-site accident described above which was partially offset by an increase in hot oil service revenue from the addition hot oil trucks and expansion of services into Rock Springs, Wyoming. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, revenues in this region increased $3.5 million or 23% from the comparable period last year due to several factors in the first quarter including (i) increased propane revenues from changing to a “cost plus” billing method, (ii) increased drilling and completion activity by several new and existing customers in the Niobrara Shale/DJ Basin, and (iii) revenues generated from the recent expansion of service into Rock Springs, WY.

 

Revenues in the Eastern USA region decreased $503,000 or 56% from the second quarter of last year primarily due to lower frac water heating demand from two customers. One customer suspended its drilling activities in the Utica shale to focus its resources in other locations and the other customer modified its frac design so that less water heating was required during the spring months. Despite the decline in the second quarter, revenues in the Eastern USA region increased $2.1 million or 41% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period last year primarily due to continued expansion of our services into the Utica Shale market where exploration and production activity and demand for our services increased over the comparable period last year. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company added two new sizable customers in addition to experiencing revenue growth with its largest customer. Additionally, since propane costs are billed to customers, higher propane prices during the first quarter as compared to the prior year also contributed to the revenue increase during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

 

 
20

 

 

For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, revenues in the Central USA region increased $80,000 or 3% from the comparable period last year primarily due to a slight increase in fluid management revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, revenues in the Central USA region increased $413,000 or 7% from the comparable period last year primarily due to increased frac water heating revenues generated from a customer in the Texas Panhandle during the first quarter.

 

Historical Seasonality of Revenues: 

 

Because of the seasonality of our frac water heating and hot oiling business, revenues generated during the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year, covering the months during what is known as our “heating season”, are significantly higher than revenues earned during the second and third quarters of our fiscal year. In addition, the revenue mix of our service offerings also changes among quarters as our Well Enhancement services (which includes frac water heating and hot oiling) decrease as a percentage of total revenues and Fluid Management services and other services increase. Thus, the revenues recognized in our quarterly financials in any given period are not indicative of the annual or quarterly revenues through the remainder of that fiscal year.

 

As an indication of this quarter-to-quarter seasonality, the Company generated revenues of $33.7 million (73%) during the first and fourth quarters of 2013 compared to $12.7 million (27%) during the second and third quarters of 2013. In 2012, the Company earned revenues of $20.8 million (66%) during the first and fourth quarters of 2012, compared to $10.7 million (34%) during the second and third quarters of 2012. While the Company is pursuing various strategies to lessen these quarterly fluctuations by increasing non-seasonal business opportunities, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in doing so.

 

Cost of Revenues:

 

Cost of revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 increased $747,000 or 13% from the comparable period last year primarily due to increased labor costs, higher fleet costs and expenses related to geographic expansion. As the Company's fleet of trucks has expanded, employee headcount and expenses such as insurance and repairs and maintenance have increased correspondingly.

 

Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $6.5 million or 40% from the comparable period last year due to the same reasons as mentioned above for the first quarter but also were impacted by significantly higher propane costs from the same period last year.

 

Gross Profit:

 

Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 decreased to 12% of revenues as compared to 28% of revenues for the comparative quarter last year. The decline in gross profit percentage was primarily due to lost revenues in the 2014 quarter relating to the well-site accident (as discussed in the Overview section above) coupled with expenses of retaining employees while waiting for operations to resume and increases in expenses related to fleet expansion at same time revenues were negatively impacted by the well-site incident and a revenue decrease in the Company’s Eastern USA region.

 

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue declined to 30% for the six months June 30, 2014 as compared to 39% for the comparable period last year. In addition the factors mentioned above in the second quarter discussion, the largest impact on the gross profit percentage decline was due to the mathematical impact of higher propane costs experienced in the first quarter (see “Propane Impact Discussion” below). In addition, lower operating margins in our fluid management business contributed to the overall decline in our gross profit percentage from the same period last year.

 

 

 
21

 

 

Propane Impact Discussion:

 

Prior to January 2014, many of our frac water heating customers in the DJ Basin were billed on a “per barrel of water heated” basis which included the price of propane. As result, our gross profit percentage was immediately impacted once propane prices started to rise in December 2013 and was further impacted as prices continued to rise significantly in January 2014. In late January and early February, the Company was able to renegotiate pricing for propane with customers in the DJ Basin to a cost plus basis which is similar to the billing method we use in our other regions. Under this method, propane is billed at cost plus a fixed dollar per gallon mark-up. This change in pricing eliminated the negative impact on gross profit and gross profit percentage due to increases in propane prices. Management estimates that the impact to gross profit from the increase in propane prices under the old per barrel billing prior to price renegotiations was approximately $500,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

Higher propane prices also tend to reduce gross profit percentages on frac heating customers which bill propane on a cost plus basis. Typically, our mark-up on propane is a fixed dollar amount per gallon. Therefore, as propane prices increase, this fixed dollar mark-up becomes a smaller percentage of the billed propane costs resulting in a lower gross profit percentages. The increase in propane prices also causes propane revenues to become a larger portion of total revenues. As a result, the lower propane margins tend to dilute our overall gross profit percentage. We estimate that the higher propane prices and corresponding impact diluted our overall gross profit percentage in 2014 by approximately 4% to 5% of revenues.

 

The Company anticipates that propane prices will continue to fluctuate in the future based on the relative demand and availability of propane in different geographic areas across the United States. Since the Company passes along the cost of propane to its customers on a cost plus mark-up basis, fluctuations in the price of propane will continue to impact revenues, cost of revenues and gross profit percentages. Decreases in propane prices will tend to reduce well enhancement revenues and costs of revenues and may increase our overall gross profit percentage as the dollar value of lower margin propane revenue and cost of revenue becomes a lower percentage of total revenue. Conversely, increases in propane prices similar to what the Company experienced during this quarter, will tend to increase well enhancement revenues and costs of revenues and may decrease our gross profit percentage, as the dollar value of lower margin propane revenue and cost of revenue becomes a higher percentage of total revenue.

 

General and Administrative Expenses:

 

For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $164,000 or 15% as compared to the same period last year. Costs associated with the Company’s listing on the NYSE MKT national stock exchange and higher personnel costs related to the Company’s expansion contributed to the increase. These increases in expenses were partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation costs during the quarter as compared to the prior year’s quarter.

 

As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses remained consistent at 7% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, there was an increase of approximately $458,000 or 23% as compared to the same period last year. Higher personnel costs to support the Company’s growth including a CFO in April 2013 and the addition of two regional operations managers in the Company’s Heat Waves operations in October 2013 and June 2014 were the primary reasons. Costs associated with the Company’s listing on the NYSE MKT national stock exchange also contributed to the increase. Stock-based compensation costs were lower during the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. In addition, during the 2013 period, franchise taxes were $121,000 lower due to a credit received.

 

Depreciation and Amortization:

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, depreciation and amortization expenses increased $140,000 or 24%, and $254,000 or 22%, respectively, from the comparable periods last year. The increase in depreciation expense was due to new equipment placed into service over the previous 12 months, which includes six bobtail frac water heaters, two double burner frac heaters, and eight hot oilers.

 

 

 
22

 

 

Income Taxes:

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $543,000 on a pre-tax loss of $1.4 million as compared to $118,000 of income tax expense on pre-tax income of $309,000 for the comparable period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $2.2 million on pre-tax income of $5.5 million as compared to $2.8 million of income tax expense on pre-tax income of $6.9 million for the comparable period last year.

 

The effective tax rate on income from operations was approximately 39% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. This effective tax rate, as compared to a generally expected federal corporate tax rate of 34%, is primarily due to state and local income tax.

*Note: See below for discussion of the use of non-GAAP financial measurements.

 

 

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements and for use within management’s discussion and analysis based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the reader's understanding of the Company’s financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures are provided herein.

 

EBITDA is defined as net income plus or minus interest expense plus taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from EBITDA stock-based compensation and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing the Company’s operating performance (see list of these items to follow below). None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure. Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its operational and financial decision-making, believing that it is useful to eliminate certain items in order to focus on what it deems to be a more reliable indicator of ongoing operating performance and the Company’s ability to generate cash flow from operations. Management also believes that investors may find non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP disclosures.

 

 

 
23

 

 

 

All of the items included in the reconciliation from Net Income to EBITDA and from EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items (e.g., depreciation, amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation, etc.) or (ii) items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing the Company’s operating performance (e.g., income taxes, gain on sale of investments, loss on disposal of assets, etc.). In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors can better assess the Company’s operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect the Company’s ability to generate free cash flow or invest in its business.

 

Because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. However, these measures can still be useful in evaluating the Company’s performance against its peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosures.

Overview:

 

We have relied on cash flow from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and equipment financing to satisfy our liquidity needs. Our ability to fund operating cash flow shortfalls, fund capital expenditures, and make acquisitions will depend upon our future operating performance and on the availability of equity and debt financing.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the Company has a credit facility with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) which includes a $5.0 million revolving line of credit and a $12.4 million equipment term loan. Advances under both the revolving and term loans incur interest based upon an effective Eurodollar rate or alternate base rate for domestic loans.

 

 

 
24

 

 

The revolving line of credit has a variable interest rate that is based, at the Company’s discretion, of 1 month LIBOR plus 3.25% for Eurodollar Loans or PNC Bank rate plus 1.25% for domestic loans. The revolving line of credit is secured with inventory and accounts of the company and has a facility fee of .375% per annum, which is applied to any undrawn portion of the maximum revolving advance amount. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had $0 outstanding under the revolving line of credit.

 

The term note is payable in twenty-three fixed monthly principal payments of $172,620 beginning November 30, 2013 with the remaining principal balance due on November 2, 2015. The term loan has a variable interest rate that is based, at the Company’s discretion of 1 month LIBOR plus 4.25% for Eurodollar Rate Loans or PNC Base Rate plus 2.25% for Domestic Rate Loans. As discussed in Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has entered into an interest rate swap to hedge the interest rate of the original term loan at an effective rate of 4.89% through the term of the loan.

 

The PNC credit facility has certain customary financial covenants that include, among others:

 

 

(i)

an annual limit on capital expenditures ($12,000,000 for 2014 and $2,500,000 annually thereafter);

 

(ii)

a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined, not less than 1.1:1, measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, and must be determined based on trailing twelve month information.); and

 

(iii)

a minimum tangible net worth test (set annually by the lender based upon financial projections of the Company and is measured on a quarterly basis). The tangible net worth limit for 2014 was based upon projections and ranges from $13,065,000 to $15,313,000.

 

These financial covenants could restrict our ability to secure additional debt financing or access funds under our revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2014, the Company did not meet one of the financial covenants imposed by the PNC loan agreements which resulted in an event of default under the loan documents. PNC has waived the effect of this event of default for the period As a result of the waiver, no default was declared. The Company believes that it is in line to meet the debt covenants and all other future covenant requirements.

 

On August 1, 2014, the Company received approval from PNC Business Credit for a five-year, $40 million revolving credit facility. The facility will replace the Company’s current revolving credit facility discussed above and will allow the Company to borrow up to 85% of eligible receivables and 85% of the appraised value of trucks and equipment. The Company intends to use the facility to fund approximately $7 million of its $16 million 2014 capital expenditure program and consolidate its existing PNC term loan and other equipment loans at a lower average interest rate. The remaining amount available under the facility will be used for future working capital needs or to supplement future capital expenditures. The new facility is expected to close in September, subject to customary due diligence and amendment to our existing loan documentation with PNC Bank.

 

Working Capital:

 

As of June 30, 2014 the Company had working capital of approximately $5.8 million, a decrease in working capital of approximately $2.4 million as compared to our 2013 fiscal year end. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to the utilization of cash and proceeds from collections of accounts receivable to fund $5.1 million of capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

Cash flow from Operating Activities:

 

Cash flow provided by operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $11.2 million as compared to cash flow provided by operating activities of $7.9 million during the comparable period last year. The increase in cash flow from operations was largely due to collections of accounts receivable during the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase due to cash collections of accounts receivable was partially offset by the net loss during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared to net income during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

 

 

 
25

 

 

Cash flow provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $11.2 million as compared to cash flow provided by operating activities of $8.5 million during the comparable period last year. The increase in cash flow from operations was largely due to collections of accounts receivable during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase due to cash collections of accounts receivable was partially offset by the decrease in net income during the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

Cash flow Used In Investing Activities:

 

Cash flow used in investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $5.1 million as compared to cash flow used in from investing activities of $1.2 million during the comparable period last year. The $3.9 million change in cash flows was the result of $5.1 million being used for purchases of equipment during the three months ended June 30, 2014 whereas during the three months ended June 30, 2013 only $1.2 million was used for purchases of equipment.

 

Cash flow used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $6.6 million as compared to cash flow used in from investing activities of $35,000 during the comparable period last year. The $6.6 million change in cash flows was the result of $6.6 million being used for purchases of equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2014 whereas in 2013 only $1.8 million was used for purchases of equipment, and there was $1.8 million of cash proceeds from sale of well site construction equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

Cash flow from Financing Activities:

 

Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $1.6 million as compared to cash used of $1.7 million for the comparable period last year. The change was primarily due to the timing of borrowings and payments under the PNC revolving credit facility related to working capital needs.

 

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $903,000 as compared to cash used of $3.3 million for the comparable period last year. The change was primarily due to the timing of borrowings and payments under the PNC revolving credit facility related to working capital needs.

 

Outlook:

 

The Company plans to continue to expand its business operations by acquiring and fabricating additional equipment and increasing the volume and scope of services offered to our existing customers. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company announced CAPEX programs of $16 million that will be used for the purchase and fabrication of sixteen hot oil trucks, four acidizing trucks, and eighteen frac water heaters. The Company spent $6.6 million of the 2014 CAPEX program during the first two quarters of fiscal 2014 and the Company plans to spend the remaining $9.4 million during the next three quarters.

 

As discussed above, the Company received approval from PNC Business Credit on August 1, 2014 for a five-year, $40 million revolving credit facility. The facility will replace the Company’s current revolving credit facility with PNC bank and intends to use the facility to fund approximately $7 million of its $16 million 2014 capital expenditure program and consolidate its existing PNC term loan and other equipment loans at a lower average interest rate. The remaining amount available under the facility will be used for future working capital needs or to supplement future capital expenditures. The new facility is expected to close in September, subject to customary due diligence and amendment to our existing loan documentation with PNC Bank.

 

On April 16, 2014, the Company filed an S-3 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that was declared effective by the SEC on April 30, 2014. The Form S-3 provides the Company with the flexibility to offer and sell from time to time, up to $50 million of the Company’s common stock in order to supplement our cash flows from operations and financing activities. The Company currently does not have any immediate plans to sell securities under the shelf registration statement, but plans to maintain the registration statement in the event there is a need to supplement its existing capital resources.

Capital Commitments and Obligations:

 

The Company’s capital obligations as of June 30, 2014 consists primarily of scheduled principal payments under the PNC Term Loan, the PNC Revolving Line of Credit, as well as other bank debt and certain operating leases.  As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is working towards closing a new five-year, $40 million revolving credit facility with PNC Bank which would replace the PNC loans above and change the Company’s capital obligations. General terms and conditions for, and amounts due under, these commitments and obligations are summarized in the notes to the financial statements. 

 

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately $8.8 million in outstanding purchase commitments that are necessary to complete the purchase and fabrication of sixteen hot oil trucks, eighteen frac heaters and one acid truck included in the Company’s 2014 CAPEX program. The Company intends to finance the purchase of this equipment through cash flow from operations and through the new revolving credit facility described above.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make a variety of estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and (ii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements.

 

Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates and assumptions based upon actual results may have a material impact on our results of operation and/or financial condition. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q.

 

While all of the significant accounting policies are important to the Company’s financial statements, the following accounting policies and the estimates derived there from have been identified as being critical.

 

Accounts Receivable 

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers. The Company provides a reserve for doubtful accounts based on a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. The provision for uncollectible amounts is continually reviewed and adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate to cover future losses. The allowance is management's best estimate of uncollectible amounts and is determined based on historical performance that is tracked by the Company on an ongoing basis. The losses ultimately incurred could differ materially in the near term from the amounts estimated in determining the allowance.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed determinable, services are provided, and collection is reasonably assured. Due to the seasonality of the Company’s operations, a significant portion of revenues are recognized during the colder, winter months of the year. Therefore, the Company believes that, the revenues recognized for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 are not indicative of quarterly revenues through the remainder of the fiscal year.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment consists of (1) trucks, trailers and pickups; (2) trucks that are in various stages of fabrication; (3) real property which includes land and buildings used for office and shop facilities and wells used for the disposal of water; and (4) other equipment such as tools used for maintaining and repairing vehicles, office furniture and fixtures, and computer equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company charges repairs and maintenance against income when incurred and capitalizes renewals and betterments, which extend the remaining useful life or expand the capacity or efficiency of the assets. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 5 to 30 years.

 

 

 
27

 

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. The Company looks primarily to the discounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired.

 

Income Taxes 

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities will be recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income taxes are classified as a net current or non-current asset or liability based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting purposes.  A deferred tax asset or liability that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting is classified according to the expected reversal date.  The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that it believes is more likely than not expected to be realized.

 

The Company accounts for any uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company measures the tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The application of income tax law is inherently complex. Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous.  As such, the Company is required to make many subjective assumptions and judgments regarding income tax exposures. Interpretations of and guidance surrounding income tax law and regulations change over time and may result in changes to the Company’s subjective assumptions and judgments which can materially affect amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income. The result of the reassessment of the Company’s tax positions did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

Interest and penalties associated with tax positions are recorded in the period assessed as general and administrative expenses. No interest or penalties have been assessed as of June 30, 2014. The Company files tax returns in the United States and in the states in which it conducts its business operations. The tax years 2010 through 2013 remain open to examination in the taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model as a method for determining the estimated fair value for all stock options awarded to employees, officers, and directors. The expected term of the options is based upon evaluation of historical and expected further exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based upon U.S. Treasury rates at the date of grant with maturity dates approximately equal to the expected life of the grant. Volatility is determined upon historical volatility of our stock and adjusted if future volatility is expected to vary from historical experience. The dividend yield is assumed to be none as we have not paid dividends nor do we anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We also use the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of warrants. Expected volatility is based upon the weighted average of historical volatility over the contractual term of the warrant and implied volatility. The risk-free interest rate is basis upon implied yield on a U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issue with a remaining term equal to the contractual term of the warrants. The dividend yield is assumed to be none.

 

 
28

 

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Other than the guarantees made by Enservco (as the parent Company) and by Mr. Michael Herman (Chairman) on various loan agreements and operating leases disclosed in Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Company had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

 

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”), as of June 30, 2014, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer). Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were not any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated by the SEC under the 1934 Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

See the risk factors set forth in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed on March 20, 2014, which is incorporated herein by reference. There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in that Form 10-K.

 

Item 2.   UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS     

 

During the period from May 9, 2014 through August 8, 2014, a number of holders of common stock purchase warrants exercised those warrants and received shares of common stock as a result of such exercise. The warrants had originally been issued to accredited investors and underwriters in connection with an equity financing that the Company completed in November 2012. In total, warrants to acquire 205,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.49 per share to $0.55 per share were exercised on a cashless basis by three individuals including two investor relations consultants and one individual from the firm that underwrote the offering resulting in the issuance of 166,143 shares of common stock; and

 

The following sets forth the information required by Item 701 of SEC Regulation S-K.

 

(a)           Securities Sold: Common Stock, $0.005 par value, of Enservco. The date of the sales are outlined above.

 

(b)          Underwriters and Other Purchasers. One individual from the underwriting firm and two investor relations consultants exercised warrants to acquire 205,000 shares of common stock resulting in the issuance of 166,143 shares of common stock.

 

(c)           Consideration. Warrants to acquire 205,000 common shares were exercised on a cashless basis resulting in the issuance of 166,143 shares of common stock. In each case where the warrants are entitled to a cashless exercise, the Company has interpreted the term “fair market value” of the underlying shares to equal the ten day VWAP for the Company’s common stock, ending on the day before notice of exercise is received by the Company.

 

(d)           Exemption from Registration Claimed. The shares were issued upon exercise of the warrants to accredited investors and to underwriters pursuant to the exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 found in Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506 thereunder, as well as in Section 4(a)(5) thereof in that each of the purchasers was an accredited investor, and Section 3(a)(9) inasmuch as each of the warrant holders was an existing security holder of Enservco. The offer was made without any form of advertising or general solicitation, and each of the accredited investors represented to Enservco that they acquired the shares and the underlying securities for investment purposes only and without a view toward further distribution.

 

(e)           Terms of Conversion or Exercise. Not applicable.

 

(f)            Use of Proceeds. Not applicable.
