Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information, which includes condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of  December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

It is management's opinion that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made, which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the remaining quarters or year ending December 31, 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of 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, 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. Significant estimates include estimates used to record purchase price allocation for the Company's acquisitions, fair value measurements used in goodwill impairment tests, impairment estimations of long-lived assets, revenue recognition on cost-to-cost type contracts, allowances for uncollectible accounts, valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances, estimates of the incremental borrowing rate for long-term leases, fair value estimates and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results  may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2021 classifications in order to conform to the 2022 presentation.

 

Company Conditions and Sources of Liquidity

The Company has experienced net losses and cash outflows from cash used in operating activities over the past years. As of and for the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $279.4 million, loss from continuing operations of $66.8 million, and net cash used in operating activities of $7.3 million.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $31.6 million available for working capital needs and planned capital asset expenditures and a working capital deficit of $98.9 million, including current maturities of debt. These factors initially raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, but this doubt has been alleviated by the Company’s plans to raise sufficient capital to meet our current obligations over the next twelve months, in addition to the expected recovery of our assets to satisfy liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has plans to access additional capital to meet its obligations for the twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. Historically, the Company has raised additional equity and debt financing to fund its expansion; refer to Note 16Notes Payable and Line of Credit. The Company has also funded some of its capital expenditures through long-term financing with lenders and other investors as also described in further detail in Note 16Notes Payable and Line of Credit and Note 20 Subsequent Events. Our ability to raise the additional capital is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market demand for our common stock, which itself is subject to a number of business risks and uncertainties, our creditworthiness and the uncertainty that we would be able to raise such additional capital at a price that is favorable to us. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has an effective S-3 shelf registration statement with $69.8 million of aggregate offering value available for the issuance of various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants. Management has demonstrated ability to extend its notes including its seller notes as needed. In addition, although no formal agreements exist, the company has solicited interest from various lenders to potentially raise additional term debt to restructure or refinance its existing notes. While management will look to continue funding future acquisitions, organic growth initiatives and continuing operations by raising additional capital from sources such as sales of its debt or equity securities or notes payable in order to meet operating cash requirements, there is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful.

 

As the Company continues its progression to build a full-service infrastructure services platform, a successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of positive cash flows through generating adequate revenue growth to support the Company’s cost structure. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our revenues have increased by $147.1 million and operating loss has decreased by $23.7 million resulting in an 861% increase and 71% decrease, respectively, compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. The significant increase in revenues and decrease in operating loss during the year was primarily driven by the strategic acquisitions of Front Line Power Construction, LLC, Gibson Technical Services, IMMCO, Inc., and Full Moon Telecom, LLC coupled with organic growth within Orbital Power, Inc. In addition, two large utility scale solar projects were awarded to Orbital Solar Services during the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2021. We anticipate, based on currently proposed plans and assumptions relating to our operations, the Company to generate sufficient revenue growth required to achieve profitability and generate positive cash flows from operations over the next twelve months. No assurance can be made that we will be able to obtain profitability and positive cash flows from our continuing operations.

 

The Company plans to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months by raising additional capital through equity and debt financing sources and expected positive cash flows generated from operations. Given the considerations, we believe the mitigating effect of management’s plans has alleviated any substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Sale of Orbital U.K.

On May 11, 2022, the Company completed the sale of its Orbital U.K. operations for the agreed upon amount of 3,000,000 GBP. The Company received 1,575,000 GBP on the settlement date and the remaining 1,425,000 GBP was received within 60 days of the settlement date but after June 30, 2022. The Company could receive additional consideration if certain events transpire during the 12-month restricted period following the settlement date. In addition, the Company will receive a “royalty” of 15% on any sales of the GasPT device related to Snam Rete Gas and/or the Future Billing Methodology (FBM) Project.

 

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived intangible assets

The Company has Goodwill from acquisitions made in 2020, 2021 and 2022.

 

9

 

The Company tests for impairment of Indefinite-lived intangibles and Goodwill in the second quarter of each year and when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of Goodwill exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable. 

 

Under current accounting guidance, Orbital Infrastructure Group is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The guidance includes a number of factors to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment. 

 

During the three months ended  June 30, 2022, the Company completed a quantitative analysis to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting units were less than their carrying amount, including goodwill. To complete the review, management evaluated the fair value of the Goodwill and considered all known events and circumstances that might trigger an impairment of goodwill. The review of goodwill, prepared as of  May 31, 2022, determined that there were not indicators present to suggest that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units were less than their carrying amounts and thus no impairment was necessary during the quarter ended  June 30, 2022. To complete the review, management evaluated the fair value of the Goodwill and considered all known events and circumstances that might trigger an impairment of goodwill. The review of goodwill, prepared as of  May 31, 2022, determined that there were not indicators present to suggest that it was more likely than not that the fair value of any of the Company's reporting units was less than its carrying amount and thus no impairment was necessary during the quarter ended  June 30, 2022

 

The Company did a second goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2022 due to a 42 percent drop in the Company's stock price between May 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, that caused an overall decrease in the Company’s market capitalization. We performed the interim impairment tests consistent with our approach for annual impairment testing, including similar models, inputs, and assumptions. As a result of the interim impairment testing, no impairment was identified as of June 30, 2022. 

 

Accrued expenses

Accrued expenses are liabilities that reflect expenses on the statement of operations that have not been paid or recorded in accounts payable at the end of the period. At June 30, 2022 and  December 31, 2021, accrued expenses of $31.7 million and $28.3 million, respectively included the following components:

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

 

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to significantly impact certain aspects and geographies of the global economy due to supply chain, production and other logistical disruptions. While we have continued to operate as a provider of essential services from the onset of the pandemic, during the course of the pandemic our operations and financial results have been adversely impacted by governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, including shut-down orders and limitations on work site practices implemented by governments. The longer-term implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial performance remain highly uncertain and variable. The future impact of COVID-19 will depend on the responses of governmental authorities, customers, suppliers and other third parties, our workforce availability, and the continued impact of COVID-19 on the global economy.

 

We continue to monitor governmental vaccination and testing standards or requirements related to COVID-19, as well as certain standards and guidance for preventing the spread of COVID-19. While the impact of these standards has lessened in 2022, we continue to monitor changes in these standards that may impact our business.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND SALE OF A BUSINESS

 

As part of the Company’s stated strategy to transform Orbital Infrastructure Group into a diversified energy infrastructure services platform serving North American energy customers, the Company’s board of directors made the decision to divest of its Orbital Gas subsidiaries. The Orbital Gas subsidiaries provide proprietary gas measurement and sampling technologies and the integration of process control and measuring/sampling systems. They are legacy businesses that are not part of the Company’s strategy of building an infrastructure services company serving the electric power, telecommunications and renewable markets. The disposition of the Orbital Gas subsidiaries will facilitate the Company’s restructuring and cost savings initiatives and are intended to realign and simplify its business structure and better position the Company for future growth and improved profitability. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a $9.2 million impairment related to its U.K. operations to write the value of its investment in the U.K. operations to its expected realizable value of 3 million GBP ($4.1 million on December 31, 2021).

 

The sale of the U.K. operations closed in May of 2022. The Company could receive additional consideration if certain events transpire during the 12-month restricted period following the settlement date. In addition, the Company will receive a “royalty” of 15% on any sales of the GasPT device related to Snam Rete Gas and/or the Future Billing Methodology (FBM) Project. Remaining assets and liabilities held for sale at June 30, 2022 include assets and liabilities of the Company's North America Orbital Gas subsidiary.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS 

 

The Electric Power segment provides full service building, maintenance and support to the electrical power distribution, transmission, substation, and emergency response sectors of North America through Front Line Power, Orbital Power Services and  Eclipse Foundation. The Telecommunications segment composed of Gibson Technical Services and subsidiaries provides technical implementation, design, maintenance, emergency and repair support services in the broadband, wireless, and outside plant and building technologies.  The Renewables segment, Orbital Solar Services, provides engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services that support the development of renewable energy generation focused on utility scale solar and community solar construction.

 

For our construction contracts, revenue is generally recognized over time. Our fixed price and unit-price construction projects generally use a cost-to-cost input method or an output method to measure our progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as we believe it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Revenue is also generally recognized over time as the entity’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Under the output method, progress towards completion is measured based on units of work completed based on the contractual pricing amounts.  Under the output method, revenue is determined by actual work achieved. For jobs under the output method, revenue is earned based on each unit in the contract completed. We construct comprehensive revenue calculations based on quantifiable measures of actual units completed multiplied by the agreed upon contract prices per item completed. 

 

For our engineering and network design contracts, revenue is also generally recognized over time. In these jobs, timing of revenue recognition also depends on the payment terms of the contract, as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to us. For those contracts where the Company's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced or for which we have a right to payment for performance completed to date at all times throughout our performance, inclusive of a cancellation, we recognize revenue over time. As discussed above, these performance obligations use a cost-to-cost input method or output method to measure our progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as we believe it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. However, for those contracts for which we do not have a right, at all times, to payment for performance completed to date and we are not enhancing a customer-controlled asset, we recognize revenue at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer. 

 

For our service contracts, revenue is also generally recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our performance as we perform the service. For our fixed price service contracts with specified service periods, revenue is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over such service period when our inputs are expended evenly, and the customer receives and consumes the benefits of our performance throughout the contract term.

 

For certain of our revenue streams, such as call-out repair and service work, and outage services, that are performed under time and materials contracts, our progress towards complete satisfaction of such performance obligations is measured using an input method as the customer receives and consumes the benefits of our performance completed to date.

 

Due to uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, it is possible that estimates of costs to complete a performance obligation will be revised in the near-term. For those performance obligations for which revenue is recognized using a cost-to-cost input method, changes in total estimated costs, and related progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation, are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions to the estimates are made. When the current estimate of total costs for a performance obligation indicates a loss, a provision for the entire estimated loss on the unsatisfied performance obligation is made in the period in which the loss becomes evident.

Accounts Receivable, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Accounts receivable are recognized in the period when our right to consideration is unconditional. We also assess our customer's ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including our historical payment experience with and the financial condition of our customers.

 

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, and are within industry standards across our business lines. Accounts receivable are recognized net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.
 

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contract assets include unbilled amounts from our construction projects when revenue recognized under the output method or input cost-to-cost method exceed the amounts invoiced to our customers, as the amounts cannot be billed under the terms of our contracts. Such amounts are recoverable from our customers based upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units or completion of a contract. Also included in contract assets are retainage receivables and amounts we seek or will seek to collect from customers or others for errors or changes in contract specifications or design, contract change orders or modifications in dispute or unapproved as to both scope and/or price or other customer-related causes of unanticipated additional contract costs (claims and unapproved change orders). Our contract assets do not include capitalized costs to obtain and fulfill a contract. Contract assets are generally classified as current within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Contract liabilities from our construction contracts occur when amounts invoiced to our customers exceed revenues recognized under the cost-to-cost or output method measure of progress. Contract liabilities additionally include advanced payments from our customers on certain contracts and provision for future contract losses for those contracts estimated to close in a gross loss position. Contract liabilities decrease as we recognize revenue from the satisfaction of the related performance obligation and are recorded as either current or long-term, depending upon when we expect to recognize such revenue.

 

Balances and activity in the current contract liabilities as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was as follows:

Performance Obligations

 

Remaining Performance Obligations

 

Remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price of contracts with customers for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts. As of June 30, 2022, the Company's remaining performance obligations are generally expected to be filled within the next 12 months. For the contracts that are greater than 12 months the Company has approximately $228.5 million in the aggregate of future revenue related to remaining performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as of June 30, 2022. 

 

Any adjustments to net revenues, cost of revenues, and the related impact to operating income are recognized as necessary in the period they become known. These adjustments may result from positive program performance, and may result in an increase in operating income during the performance of individual performance obligations, if we determine we will be successful in mitigating risks surrounding the technical, schedule and cost aspects of those performance obligations. Likewise, these adjustments may result in a decrease in operating income if we determine we will not be successful in mitigating these risks. Changes in estimates of net revenues, cost of revenues and the related impact to operating income are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period they become known, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a performance obligation's percentage of completion. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our performance obligations. 

 

Performance Obligations Satisfied Over Time

 

To determine the proper revenue recognition method for our contracts, we evaluate whether a single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and the decision to separate the single contract into multiple performance obligations could change the amount of revenue and profit recorded in a given period.

 

For most of our contracts, the customer contracts with us to provide a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project or capability (even if that single project results in the delivery of multiple units). Hence, the entire contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. Less commonly, however, we may promise to provide distinct goods or services within a contract in which case we separate the contract into more than one performance obligation. If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, we allocate the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation. We infrequently sell standard products with observable standalone sales. In cases where we do, the observable standalone sales are used to determine the standalone selling price. More frequently, we sell a customized customer specific solution, and in these cases we typically use output method or the expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

 

Variable Consideration

The nature of our contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration. In rare instances, we include in our contract estimates, additional revenue for submitted contract modifications or claims against the customer when we believe we have an enforceable right to the modification or claim, the amount can be estimated reliably and its realization is probable. In evaluating these criteria, we consider the contractual/legal basis for the claim, the cause of any additional costs incurred, the reasonableness of those costs and the objective evidence available to support the claim. These amounts are included in our calculation of net revenue recorded for our contracts and the associated remaining performance obligations. Additionally, if the contract has a provision for liquidated damages in the case that the Company misses a timing target, or fails to meet any other contract benchmarks, the Company accounts for those estimated liquidated damages as variable consideration and will adjust revenue accordingly with periodic updates to the estimated variable consideration as the job progresses. Liquidated damages are recognized as variable consideration and are estimated based on the most likely amount that is deemed probable of realization.

 

14

 

Significant Judgments

Our contracts with certain customers may be subject to contract cancellation clauses. Contracts with other cancellation provisions may require judgment in determining the contract term, including the existence of material rights, transaction price and identifying the performance obligations and whether a contract should be accounted for over time or on a completed contract basis. Revenue is recognized for certain projects over time using cost-based input methods, in which significant judgement is required to evaluate assumptions including the amount of total estimated costs to determine our progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize.

 

At times, customers may request changes that either amend, replace or cancel existing contracts. Judgment is required to determine whether the specific facts and circumstances within the contracts require the changes to be accounted for as a separate contract or as a modification. Generally, contract modifications containing additional goods and services that are determined to be distinct and sold at their stand-alone selling price are accounted for as a separate contract. For contract modifications where goods and services are not determined to be distinct and sold at their stand-alone selling price, the original contract is updated and the required adjustments to revenue and contract assets, liabilities, and other accounts will be made accordingly.

 

Our contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately rather than together may require significant judgment. For, example, we consider many of our contracts that coordinate multiple products into an integrated system to be a single performance obligation, while the same products would be considered separate performance obligations if not so integrated.

 

In contracts where there are timing differences between when we transfer a promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, we have determined that, our contracts do not include a significant financing component.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND EXPENSE

 

Through December 31, 2021, the Company had been vesting a series of stock appreciation rights (SARS) to be settled in cash to certain executives. The SARS were considered liability-classified awards meaning their fair-values were remeasured at the end of each reporting period using a binomial lattice model and any changes in fair value for the vesting periods to-date were recorded through the income statement with a corresponding liability accrued on the balance sheet. Since December 31, 2021, the SARS have been exchanged for restricted stock units (RSUs) on the modification date of January 14, 2022 as approved by the Board of Directors. To account for this exchange, the company revalued the SARS as of the modification date of January 14, 2022 using the binomial lattice model and recorded changes in the vested value since December 31, 2021 as an adjustment to the income statement. The Company then reclassified the SARS accrued liability to APIC for new RSUs and recognized incremental expense. Shares deemed vested at the modification date were released and issued net of tax in March 2022. The SARS that converted to RSUs, were added to the Company's existing RSU program. The company recorded $0.6 million and $1.3 million of expense for RSUs for the three and six months ended  June 30, 2022.

 

Restricted Stock

In  March 2021, the Company granted 3 million restricted shares with an aggregate fair value of $16.4 million with a graded vesting schedule. One-third of which were vested in  April 2021, one-third of which were due to vest in  April 2022, and one-third of which were due to vest in  April 2023. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded zero and a net credit of $3.9 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to the forfeiture and partial vesting of these grants compared to $4.6 million and $6.6 million of compensation expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 for partial vesting of the grants. The credit to compensation expense in the first six months of 2022 was due to a reversal of expense related to the forfeiture of the unvested restricted stock upon the termination of an employee as of June 30, 2022.

9.WARRANTS

 

On April 28, 2022, the Company” entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor. The Purchase Agreement provides for the sale and issuance by the Company of an aggregate of: (i) 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 7,153,847 shares of Common Stock and (iii) accompanying warrants to purchase up to 16,153,847 shares of Common Stock. The offering price per share and associated prefunded warrants was $1.30 for the shares and $1.2999 for the prefunded warrants. The prefunded warrants were immediately exercisable, had an exercise price of .0001 and were exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

 

The accompanying warrants have an exercise price of $1.31, and will be exercisable 6-months after their date of issuance and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the original issuance date.

 

Common stock warrants are accounted for in accordance with applicable accounting guidance provided in ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (ASC Topic 815), as either derivative liabilities or equity instruments depending on the specific terms of the warrant agreement.

 

The Company’s warrants are considered to be derivative warrants, are classified as liabilities, and are recorded at fair value. The warrants are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of change in fair value of warrant liability in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to estimate the fair value of the related derivative warrant liability. The warrants are classified as Level 3 liabilities (see Note 12 for fair value disclosures.)

SEGMENT REPORTING

 

Operating segments are defined in accordance with ASC 280-10 as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The measurement basis of segment profit or loss is income (loss) from operations. Management has identified five operating segments based on the activities of the Company in accordance with ASC 280-10. These operating segments have been aggregated into three reportable segments. The three reportable segments are Electric Power, Telecommunications, and Renewables and an Other category. 

 

The Electric Power segment consists of Front Line Power Construction, LLC, Orbital Power, Inc. and Eclipse Foundation Group. The segment provides comprehensive solutions to customers in the electric power industries. 

 

The Telecommunications segment is made up of Gibson Technical Services, Inc. (“GTS”) (acquired  April 13, 2021). GTS is an Atlanta-based telecommunications company providing diversified telecommunications services nationally since 1990 and is the parent of the following companies: IMMCO, Inc., Full Moon Telecom, and Coax Fiber Solutions, LLC.

 

The Renewables segment consists of Orbital Solar Services based in Raleigh, North Carolina. Orbital Solar Services provides engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services that support the development of renewable energy generation focused on utility-scale solar construction. The Company serves a wide variety of project types, including commercial, substation, solar farms and public utility projects.

 

The Other category is made up primarily of the Company's corporate activities. This category does not include any operating segments and does not generate revenue.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. ASU 2022-03 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security should not be considered in measuring fair value. It also requires the following disclosures for equity securities subject to the contractual sale restrictions: 1) the fair value of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions reflected in the balance sheet; 2) the nature and remaining duration of the restriction(s); and 3) the circumstances that could cause a lapse in the restriction(s). ASU 2022-03 is effective for the fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance should be applied prospectively. ASU 2022-03 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

 

On October 28, 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This guidance will require entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. This standard was designed to provide consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers. Legacy guidance requires entities to record contract assets and contract liabilities acquired to be recorded at fair value. The amendments will be effective for the Company beginning for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is allowed. If an entity early adopts, the entity would be required to apply the new guidance to all acquisitions made in the year of the early adoption. The Company is still reviewing the standard and as of the reporting date of this filing has not elected to early adopt.

LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260 (“FASB ASC 260”), “Earnings per Share,” Basic loss from continuing operations per share, basic income from discontinued operations per share and basic net income (loss) per share that is available to shareholders is computed by dividing the income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the respective loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period calculated using the treasury stock method. Due to the Company’s loss from continuing operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the assumed exercise of stock options, warrants and the unvested restricted stock that would otherwise increase diluted shares using the treasury stock method would have had an antidilutive effect and therefore 0.2 million shares related to stock options, 16.2 million warrants outstanding at June 30, 2022 and zero shares of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 0.2 million shares related to stock options outstanding at June 30, 2021 were excluded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2.0 million shares of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Accordingly, diluted earnings (loss) per share for continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income is the same as basic earnings (loss) per share for continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company continues to record a full valuation allowance against the Company's U.S. and U.K. net deferred tax assets and a partial valuation allowance on its Canada deferred tax assets as it is not more likely than not that the Company will realize a benefit from these assets in a future period other than a $98 thousand carryback benefit at Canada. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management concludes realization of such amounts is more likely than not. 

 

Total net income tax expense of $0.4 million and $0.6 million were recorded to the income tax provision from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022  resulting in an effective tax rate of (1.3%) and (0.9%), respectively. Income tax expense was primarily due to state minimum taxes and estimated Texas gross receipts taxes.

 

Total net income tax benefit of $9.0 million and $8.9 million was recorded to the income tax provision from continuing operations for the three and six months ended  June 30, 2021, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 51.8% and 26.6%, respectively. The income tax benefit from continuing operations for the three and six months ended  June 30, 2021 was as a result of the Company's purchase price allocation related to the  April 2021 acquisition of GTS, the Company recorded a $9.0 million deferred tax liability. As a result, the Company recorded a $9.0 million tax benefit for a reduction in prior recorded valuation allowances. All of the Company’s domestic and foreign net deferred tax assets were reduced by a full valuation allowance.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Performance and Payment Bonds and Parent Guarantees

In the ordinary course of business, Orbital Infrastructure Group and its subsidiaries are required by certain customers to provide performance and payment bonds for contractual commitments related to its projects. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of a contract and that the Company will pay its subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under a contract or to pay its subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company must reimburse the surety for expenses or outlays it incurs. Certain bonds are for open-ended contracts with multiple work orders so the value may increase as the work progresses and more work orders are started. The bonds will remain in place as the Company completes projects and resolves any disputed matters with the customers, vendors and subcontractors related to the bonded projects. As of June 30, 2022 the total amount of the outstanding performance and payment bonds was approximately $77.1 million. In addition, the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $1.4 million as of June 30, 2022.

 

Additionally, from time to time, we guarantee certain obligations and liabilities of our subsidiaries that may arise in connection with, among other things, contracts with customers, equipment lease obligations, and contractor licenses. These guarantees may cover all of the subsidiary’s unperformed, undischarged and unreleased obligations and liabilities under or in connection with the relevant agreement. For example, with respect to customer contracts, a guarantee may cover a variety of obligations and liabilities arising during the ordinary course of the subsidiary’s business or operations, including, among other things, warranty and breach of contract claims, third-party and environmental liabilities arising from the subsidiary’s work and for which it is responsible, liquidated damages, or indemnity claims.

 

Contingent Liabilities

Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. is occasionally party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, negligence or gross negligence and/or property damages, wage and hour and other employment-related damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief.

 

Regarding all lawsuits, claims and proceedings, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. records a reserve when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. discloses matters for which management believes a material loss is at least reasonably possible. None of these proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc.’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In all instances, management has assessed the matter based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, considering the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. Management’s judgment may prove materially inaccurate, and such judgment is made subject to the known uncertainties of litigation.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company now trades on the Nasdaq under the updated ticker symbol "OIG".  In addition to rebranding the Company, OIG has relocated its corporate domicile from the State of Colorado to Texas.

 

Note Payable agreement

On August 2, 2022, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. completed a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Company and an institutional investor (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Investor an unsecured instrument in the principal amount of $8.6 million (the “Note”). Upon the closing on August 2, 2022, the Company received gross proceeds of $8.0 million, before fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, including but not limited to, a $560,000 original issue discount payable to the Investor plus $15,000 to cover investor's legal fees. The net proceeds received by the Company will be used primarily for working capital, future acquisitions, and general corporate purposes.

 

The Note is payable in full within eighteen (18) months after the purchase price date in accordance with the terms set forth in the Note and accrues interest on the outstanding balance at the rate of nine percent (9%) per annum from the Purchase Price Date until the Note is paid in full. All interest shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of the Note. The Company has the right to prepay all or any portion of the outstanding balance in an amount equal to 115% multiplied by the portion of the outstanding balance to be prepaid.

 

Beginning six (6) months from the purchase price date, Investor has the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to redeem all or any portion of the Note (such amount, the “Redemption Amount”) subject to the maximum monthly redemption amount of $800,000 per calendar month, by providing Company with a “Redemption Notice."

 

The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, other obligations of the parties thereto, and termination provisions.

 

Beginning in the month of October 2022 and for each of the following three months thereafter, the Company will be obligated to reduce the aggregate debt balance with the investor by $4.0 million per month. The penalty for not meeting the required debt reduction is a 10% increase to the outstanding balance of the loan.

Orbital Infrastructure Group is a diversified infrastructure services company serving customers in the electric power, telecommunications, and renewable markets. The Company is dedicated to maximizing shareholder value through greenfield development and the acquisition of, and investment in successful, entrepreneurial led companies to profitably grow revenues by providing end-to-end solutions to customers, primarily in the renewable, electric power transmission and distribution, and telecommunications infrastructure markets. The Company is organized in three segments. The Electric Power segment consists of Front Line Power Construction, LLC based in Houston, Texas, Orbital Power, Inc. based in Dallas, Texas, and Eclipse Foundation Group based in Gonzales, Louisiana. The segment provides comprehensive infrastructure solutions to customers in the electric power industry. Services performed by Front Line Power and Orbital Power, Inc. generally include but are not limited to the engineering, design, installation, upgrade, repair and maintenance of electric power transmission and distribution infrastructure and substation facilities as well as emergency restoration services. Eclipse Foundation Group, which began operations in January 2021, is a drilled shaft foundation construction company that specializes in providing services to the electric transmission and substation, industrial, telecommunication and disaster restoration market sectors, with expertise performing services in water, marsh and rock terrains.

 

The Telecommunications segment consists of Gibson Technical Services (GTS) along with its subsidiaries IMMCO, Inc. based in Atlanta, Georgia and Full Moon Telecom, LLC based in Florida. GTS provides engineering, design, construction, and maintenance services to the broadband and wireless telecommunication industries and was acquired by the Company effective April 13, 2021. IMMCO, Inc. provides enterprise solutions to the cable and telecommunication industries and was acquired by the Company effective July 28, 2021. Full Moon Telecom, LLC provides telecommunication services including an extensive array of wireless service capabilities and was acquired by the Company effective October 22, 2021. Coax Fiber Solutions was acquired as of March 7, 2022, and is a Georgia based GDOT Certified contractor specializing in Aerial Installation, directional drilling, trenching, plowing, and missile crews for telecommunications, power, gas, water, CCTV, ATMS, and traffic signal cable installation.

 

Orbital Solar Services, LLC (OSS), based in Raleigh, North Carolina, makes up the Renewables segment. OSS provides engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services that support the development of renewable energy generation focused on utility-scale solar construction. 

 

The Company has experienced rapid growth through organic growth and acquisitions as the Company benefits from its 2021 investments and acquisitions and as the economy continues to emerge from the COVID-19 induced slowdown. Second quarter 2022 revenue was over eight times greater than the Company's total revenue from the second quarter of 2021. Improved revenues and income were as a result of the inclusion of operations from the November acquisition of Front Line Construction in the Electric Power segment along with improved revenue and gross margins from the rest of the segment and continued growth in the Telecommunications segment that got its start in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The Company continues to incur professional fees related to mergers and acquisitions as the Company pursues both organic growth and growth through acquisitions. The Company's Telecommunications segment made an additional "tuck-in" acquisition in the first quarter of 2022 for cash and stock consideration of approximately $0.9 million. The six-month period ended June 30, 2022 for all segments began to see tangible benefits from the investments the Company made in 2021 through improved revenue and gross margins. The Company's results were affected negatively in the first  half of 2022 by the $28.2 million loss on extinguishment of the Company's seller financed debt on the November 2021 Front Line Construction acquisition and stock-based payments made against its investor held debt. The loss on extinguishment on the seller financed debt was primarily related to financial instruments included in the first quarter 2022 loan modification. 

 

In the second quarter of 2021, the Company incurred ramp-up costs in the Electric Power segment that put downward pressure on margins in the second quarter of 2021.The Company also incurred professional fees related to mergers and acquisitions as the Company finalized the acquisition for GTS. The three-month period ended June 30, 2021 for both segments were also negatively affected by generally lower economic activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic that caused economic slowdowns throughout the world.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. had a consolidated loss from continuing operations of $30.1 million and $66.8 million, respectively, compared to a consolidated loss from continuing operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 of $8.3 million and $24.6 million, respectively. 

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. had a consolidated net loss of $68.6 million compared to a consolidated net loss in the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $26.2 million. The greater net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily the result of the loss on extinguishment of debt related to the loan modification of the seller financed debt, increased interest expense related to acquisitions financed by debt in the second half of 2021, and ongoing merger and acquisition activity.

 

Revenues from continuing operations increased for the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to the continued ramp-up of the Electric Power and Renewables segments along with the addition of the Telecommunications segment which was assembled via acquisitions starting in the second quarter of  2021 and continuing into 2022.

Revenue

The revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 increased compared to the 2021 comparable periods primarily due to the additions of the Telecommunications segment following the acquisitions of GTS in Q2 2021, IMMCO in Q3 2021, Full Moon in Q4 2021 and Coax Fiber Solutions, LLC in Q1 2022 along with the acquisition of Front Line Power Construction, LLC, included in the Company's Electric Power segment, added in Q4 2021. In addition, Orbital Power Inc. in the Electric Power segment has continued to ramp up operations in 2022. Renewables had significantly higher revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2022 on the strength of several large projects compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, which was affected by supply chain issues and a general slow-down caused by the COVID-19 epidemic.

 

The Electric Power Segment held backlogs of customer orders of approximately $217.5 million as of June 30, 2022 and $207.7 million at December 31, 2021. The increase in backlog is generally due to timing of master service agreement renewals. The Telecommunications segment held backlogs of customer orders of approximately $202.8 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to a backlog of $194.5 million at December 31, 2021. Increases to the backlog are due to the continuous growth of Gibson Technical Services. The Renewables segment had a backlog of $75.0 million as of June 30, 2022 compared to $121.4 million as of December 31, 2021 which is due to further work being completed and revenue being recognized in the quarter on projects that make up this backlog. Of the June 30, 2022 backlog totals, the amounts expected to be recognized in the twelve months following Q2 are approximately $291.0 million. The amounts expected to be recognized in the twelve months following Q2 consist of $140.2 million from the Electric Power segment, $75.8 million from the Telecommunications segment and $75.0 million from the Renewables segment. 

 

Cost of revenues

 

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the cost of revenues as a percentage of revenue decreased to 89.5% and 87.0% from 124.8% and 131.5% respectively from the prior-year period. This decrease was primarily in the Electric Power segment and was attributable to ramp-up of revenues in the segment both organically and the addition of Front Line Power Construction. Margin percentages will vary based upon the mix of projects including emergency response services, new crew onboarding costs, and the competitive markets in which the Company competes.

 

The three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were affected by start-up costs at the Company's Orbital Power Services group, lower margin projects during the period for Orbital Solar Service and was also affected negatively by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting world-wide economic slowdown. Ramp-up costs included onboarding personnel, equipment and supplies in advance of projected work in order to obtain the necessary resources in a competitive market as the Company prepared for forward demand expectations. Additionally, adverse weather negatively impacted several Electric Power fixed price jobs in the first half of 2021.

 

The Company expects continued improvement in margins during the remainder of 2022 as the Electric Power segment continues to gain efficiencies and increase revenues, and the Telecommunications segment sees continued synergistic benefits from the acquisitions of GTS, IMMCO, Full Moon, and Coax Fiber Solutions.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses include such items as wages, commissions, consulting, general office expenses, business promotion expenses and costs of being a public company, including legal and accounting fees, insurance and investor relations. SG&A expenses are generally associated with the ongoing activities to reach new customers, promote new product and service lines including for the Electric Power segment, Renewables segment, and Telecommunications segments.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, SG&A decreased $0.8 million and $4.7 million compared to the prior-year comparative periods. The decrease in SG&A for the six month period was primarily due to decreased SG&A costs in the Renewables segment due to the $5.2 million restricted stock forfeiture related to a Renewables' Executive termination in Q1 2022 and higher stock-based compensation in Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2022 due to the restricted stock vesting expense recorded in 2021 on the restricted stock that was subsequently forfeited in the first quarter of 2022.  Also contributing to the decreased SG&A was lower executive bonuses in Q1 2022 and a $0.3 million positive cash settled SARS mark-to-market fair value adjustment in 2022 compared to a $2.7 million mark-to-market expense in the six months ended June 30, 2021. These decreases were partially offset by increases in SG&A in the Electric Power and Telecommunications segments primarily due to organic growth and the Company's 2021 and 2022 acquisitions.

Depreciation and amortization expenses are associated with depreciation on leasehold improvements, furniture, equipment, vehicles, and amortization of intangible assets over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were up compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to additional amortization in the Electric Power and Telecommunication segments from acquisition intangibles that were acquired in the second, third and fourth quarter of 2021 and depreciation of equipment used by Orbital Power Services which had been ramping up their capital expenditures as more crews were added. 

 

 

Gain (loss) on Extinguishment of debt

Loss on extinguishment of debt in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 of $2.2 and $28.2 million was primarily related to loan modifications on the Company's seller financed debt with the sellers of Front Line Power Construction and approximately $0.8 million and $1.5 million loss on extinguishment in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 related to the payment of certain loans with stock-based payments. Gain on extinguishment of debt in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 related to a $1.2 million gain on extinguishment of debt due to the forgiveness by the U.S. government of certain payroll protection loans in the three months ended June 30, 2021, partially offset by the loss on the extinguishment of debt due to the amendment to remove the convertible equity feature of its convertible debt during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Other income (expense) changes contributing to increased expenses were liquidated damages incurred on the Company's investor held debt and less favorable foreign currency affects in 2022 compared to 2021. Losses were offset by greater rental income in the year-to-date period.  

Interest Expense

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred interest expense of $9.8 million and $17.9 million, respectively, compared to interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 of $1.1 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The increase in interest expense in 2022 is related to the increase in notes payable outstanding in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily related to the Front Line Power Construction acquisition.

Income Tax Expense

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company continues to record a full valuation allowance against the Company's U.S. net deferred tax assets and partial valuation allowance against the Company’s Canada net deferred tax assets, as it is not more likely than not that the Company will realize a benefit from these assets in a future period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Company Conditions and Sources of Liquidity

The Company has experienced net losses and cash outflows from cash used in operating activities over the past years. As of and for the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $279.4 million, loss from continuing operations of $66.8 million, and net cash used in operating activities of $7.3 million.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $31.6 million available for working capital needs and planned capital asset expenditures and a working capital deficit of $98.9 million, including current maturities of debt. These factors initially raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, but this doubt has been alleviated by the Company’s plans to raise sufficient capital to meet our current obligations over the next twelve months, in addition to the expected recovery of our assets to satisfy liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has plans to access additional capital to meet its obligations for the twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. Historically, the Company has raised additional equity and debt financing to fund its expansion; refer to Note 16 — Notes Payable and Line of Credit. The Company has also funded some of its capital expenditures through long-term financing with lenders and other investors as also described in further detail in Note 16 — Notes Payable and Line of Credit and Note 20 Subsequent Events. Our ability to raise the additional capital is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market demand for our common stock, which itself is subject to a number of business risks and uncertainties, our creditworthiness and the uncertainty that we would be able to raise such additional capital at a price that is favorable to us. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has an effective S-3 shelf registration statement with $69.8 million of aggregate offering value available for the issuance of various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants. Management has demonstrated ability to extend its notes including its seller notes as needed. In addition, although no formal agreements exist, the company has solicited interest from various lenders to potentially raise additional term debt to restructure or refinance its existing notes. While management will look to continue funding future acquisitions, organic growth initiatives and continuing operations by raising additional capital from sources such as sales of its debt or equity securities or notes payable in order to meet operating cash requirements, there is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful.

 

As the Company continues its progression to build a full-service infrastructure services platform, a successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of positive cash flows through generating adequate revenue growth to support the Company’s cost structure. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our revenues have increased by $147.1 million and operating loss has decreased by $23.7 million resulting in an 861% increase and 71% decrease, respectively, compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2021. The significant increase in revenues and decrease in operating loss during the year was primarily driven by the strategic acquisitions of Front Line Power Construction, LLC, Gibson Technical Services, IMMCO, Inc., and Full Moon Telecom, LLC coupled with organic growth within Orbital Power, Inc. In addition, two large utility scale solar projects were awarded to Orbital Solar Services during the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2021. We anticipate, based on currently proposed plans and assumptions relating to our operations, the Company to generate sufficient revenue growth required to achieve profitability and generate positive cash flows from operations over the next twelve months. No assurance can be made that we will be able to obtain profitability and positive cash flows from our continuing operations.

 

The Company plans to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months by raising additional capital through equity and debt financing sources and expected positive cash flows generated from operations. Given the considerations, we believe the mitigating effect of management’s plans has alleviated any substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

General

As of June 30, 2022, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $31.6 million and restricted cash of $0.6 million. Operations, investments, and equipment have been funded through cash on hand, the issuance of common stock authorized by its July 2020 and February 2021 S-3 filings, seller financing, and the issuance of debt and financing through the sale of future revenues. The Company filed an S-3 in February of 2021 which became effective in April 2021 for the issuance of additional stock or public debt. In April, 2022, the Company issued 9,000,000 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 7,153,847 shares of Common Stock for a total raise of $21.0 million before expenses. In August of 2021, the Company opened a $4.0 million dollar line of credit to support additional funding. Major uses of cash in the first six months of 2022 included the purchases of property and equipment, debt payments and changes in working capital. The Company continues to work to improve its short-term liquidity through management of its working capital. Long-term liquidity is expected to benefit from revenue growth and earnings through its existing operations. Overall volume growth in the Company's businesses both organically and through acquisitions are expected to benefit cash flows as well.

 

Cash Used in Operations

Cash used in operations of $7.3 million was a $15.5 million decrease in cash used compared to the six-month period in 2021.

 

The decrease in uses of cash in the first six months of 2022 are primarily related to higher merger and acquisition costs in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to 2022 along with company growth in 2022. Due to the large increase in revenue and associated costs both through acquisitions and organic growth, the Company was better able to cover it's fixed costs, but increased interest costs partially offset the benefits of much greater sales. Also with the growth of the company's revenue comes increased accounts receivables and accounts payable, which outside of timing, generally have offsetting cash flow effects. In the short-term, rapid growth can have a detrimental effect on cash flows as sales on account with positive gross margins waiting to be collected exceed accounts payable not yet paid. As the Company's growth begins to moderate, overall cash used in operations will continue to improve through revenue growth associated with new customers and larger projects. The change in cash used in operating activities since December 31, 2021, exclusive of net loss, is primarily the result of the following line items: Timing of cash payments on accounts payable and accrued liabilities was a combined $22.2 million increase in cash provided by operating activities related to larger projects at Orbital Solar Services and Orbital Power Inc. Changes in cost in excess of billing and accounts receivable from December 31, 2021 was a combined $15.3 million use of cash for the period and reflects the greater revenue volumes in the first six months of 2022 compared to the first six months of 2021.

 

 

S-3 registration

The Company filed an S-3 registration statement on July 17, 2020 containing a prospectus that was effective in September 2020. The Company utilized this filing in January 2021 to issue common stock for $45 million before costs. The Company filed a new S-3 shelf registration in January 2021, which, as amended, became effective in April 2021. With this filing, Orbital Infrastructure Group may from time-to-time issue various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants, up to an aggregate amount of $150 million. The Company utilized this S-3 registration to issue additional common stock in July 2021 for $38 million before expenses. In May 2022, the Company utilized the S-3 to issue shares and prefunded warrants for $21.0 million and additional warrants with a cumulative exercise value of $21.2 million. The Company has approximately $69.8 million remaining available to issue additional securities from its shelf registration.

 

As the Company focuses on growing its infrastructure services market presence both organically and through strategic acquisitions, technology development, product and service line additions, and increasing Orbital’s market presence, it will fund these activities together with related operating, sales and marketing efforts for its various product offerings with cash on hand, and possible proceeds from future issuances of equity through the S-3 registration statement, and available debt.

 

Orbital Infrastructure Group may raise additional capital needed to fund the further development and marketing of its products and services as well as payment of its debt obligations.

These investments typically include additions to equipment including vehicles and equipment for powerline service and maintenance, engineering, furniture, computer equipment for office personnel, facilities improvements and other fixed assets as needed for operations. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had collections from a notes receivable of $3.5 million related to the sale of the Company's electromechanical business in 2019. 

 

Financing Activities

In the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company made cash payments on notes payable of $29.8 million and had proceeds from notes payable of $23.3 million, respectively. This compared to $19.4 million of proceeds from notes payable and $5.6 million of payments on notes payable in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company also received $3.5 million in proceeds from their line of credit and made $2.0 million in payments on this line of credit in 2022 compared to $0.4 million paid in the first six months of 2021 to close its line of credit that was acquired with the Orbital Solar Services business. In the six months ended June 30 2022 and 2021 the Company recorded payments on finance lease obligations of $2.5 million and $0.3 million dollars, respectively.

At June 30, 2022 the Company had $2.8 million of cash and cash equivalents balances at domestic financial institutions (including $0.3 million of restricted cash) that were covered under the FDIC insured deposits programs and $0.3 million covered at foreign financial institutions.

The Company expects the revenues from its continuing operations, and cash on hand, to cover operating and other expenses for the next twelve months of operations. However, in the short-term, the Company expects to continue to need cash support as the Company's businesses increase their market positions and revenue. The Company may issue additional debt or equity to support continuing operations and acquisition efforts in the remaining months of 2022.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The Company has adopted various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, ("GAAP"). Certain of the Company's accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. In the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 31, 2022, the Company identified the critical accounting policies that affect the Company's more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.

 

The Company is exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact the Company’s financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. This market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company neither holds nor issues financial instruments for trading purposes.

 

 

 

Investment Risk

The Company has an Investment Policy that, inter alia, provides an internal control structure that takes into consideration safety (credit risk and interest rate risk), liquidity and yield. Our Investment officers, CEO and CFO, oversee the investment portfolio and compile a quarterly analysis of the investment portfolio when applicable for internal use. In addition, the Company has an Investment Committee to administer and operate the portfolio. At June 30, 2022, the Investment Committee is comprised of C. Stephen Cochennet, Corey A. Lambrecht, Chairman, and Nicholas M. Grindstaff, CFO.

 

Cash and cash equivalents are diversified and maintained with several financial institutions. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit, therefore, bear minimal credit risk.

 

The Company has trade receivable and revenue concentrations with large customers. See Note 17 of the Company's financial statements for more information on the Company's concentration risks.

 

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures. 

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and its Chief Financial Officer (CFO), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and the Company’s management is required to apply their judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and the CFO, concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

PART ll – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. is occasionally party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, negligence or gross negligence and/or property damages, wage and hour and other employment-related damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief.

 

Regarding all lawsuits, claims and proceedings, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. records a reserve when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company currently has no such reserves. In addition, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. discloses matters for which management believes a material loss is at least reasonably possible. None of these proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc.’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In all instances, management has assessed the matter based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, considering the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. Management’s judgment may prove materially inaccurate, and such judgment is made subject to the known uncertainties of litigation.

 

The Company recently filed and served a federal civil complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas – Dallas Division against the former owner of Reach Construction Group LLC (“Reach”).  The complaint alleges, among other things, misrepresentations and misconduct committed by the former owner in conjunction with the purchase and sale of Reach to Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc.  Based on the information and evidence contained in the complaint, the Company reasonably believes that it owes no more compensation to the former owner and is seeking return of certain funds already paid.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

There are no material changes from Risk Factors as previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 31, 2022.
