Except where the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the "Company," "Profire," "we," "us," "our," or similar words and phrases are to Profire Energy, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, taken together.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements contained in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("Form 10-K").  The results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Line of Business

This Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company's accounting policies conform to "US GAAP."

The Company provides burner-management products, solutions and services for the oil and gas industry primarily in the US and Canadian markets.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies of the Company from the information provided in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's most recent Form 10-K.

NOTE 4 – PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consisted of the following at each balance sheet date:
 As of
 March 31, 2021December 31, 2020
Assets classified as held for sale$— $623,805

Total$823,901 $1,678,428 

In the table above, the assets classified as "held for sale" consisted of an office building located in Spruce Grove, Alberta, Canada. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we sold the remaining three bays that were part of the office building, which resulted in a gain of $42,378 CAD that was recorded during the period.

NOTE 5 – ACCRUED LIABILITIES

Accrued liabilities consisted of the following at each balance sheet date:
 As of
 March 31, 2021December 31, 2020
Employee-related payables$1,007,405 $789,573

Other149,675 176,926 
Total$1,361,404 $1,196,870 

NOTE 6 – LEASES

We have leases for office equipment and office space. The leases for office equipment are classified as financing leases and the typical term is 36 months. We have the option to extend most office equipment leases, but we do not intend to do so. Accordingly, no extensions have been recognized in the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The office equipment lease payments are not variable and the lease agreements do not include any non-lease components, residual value guarantees, or restrictions. There are no interest rates implicit in the office equipment lease agreements, so we have used our incremental borrowing rate to determine the discount rate to be applied to our financing leases for purposes of determining our lease liabilities. The weighted average discount rate applied to our financing leases is 4.50% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 12.8 months.

The following table shows the components of financing lease cost:

For the Three Months Ended March 31,
Financing Lease Cost20212020
Amortization of right-of-use assets$10,992 $18,376

Because our office space leases are substantially all considered to be short-term, we have elected not to recognize them on our balance sheet under the short-term recognition exemption. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, we recognized $16,262 and $19,472, respectively, in short-term lease costs associated with office space leases.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company held 3,412,378 shares of its common stock in treasury at a total cost of $5,353,019, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had 222,472 restricted stock units, 182,278 performance based restricted stock units, and 934,700 stock options outstanding with $428,931 in remaining compensation expense to be recognized over the next 2.0 years.

2020 EIP and LTIP

Due to economic uncertainties including those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board of Directors of the Company, with the support of the Company's executives, elected not to adopt an executive incentive plan ("2020 EIP") or long-term incentive plan ("2020 LTIP") for 2020. The Board and executives believed this was an appropriate short-term measure that helped align the Company's cost structure with the extraordinary conditions affecting the industry in which we operate.

2021 RSUs

On February 18, 2021, the Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee"), approved a restricted stock award of 18,852 shares of common stock to each of Cameron M. Tidball and Ryan W. Oviatt. Messrs. Tidball and Oviatt entered into Restricted Stock Award Agreements, the forms of which were approved pursuant to the Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. These restricted stock awards, which vested immediately, were settled by the issuance of a total of 27,334 shares of common stock, net of tax withholding and resulted in $45,999 of compensation expense.

2020 RSUs

On June 17, 2020, pursuant to the annual renewal of director compensation, the Board approved a grant of 270,966 RSUs to the independent directors of the Board. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date or at the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders, whichever is earlier. The awards will result in total compensation expense of $252,000 to be recognized over the vesting period.

PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020
Mr. Arlen B. Crouch resigned from his position as a member of the Board, effective August 3, 2020. Mr. Crouch’s resignation did not result from any disagreements with management or the Board. On the effective date of Mr. Crouch's resignation, all of his unvested RSUs were forfeited. The related compensation expense associated with Mr. Crouch's unvested RSUs will be recaptured. On July 30, 2020, the Board appointed Colleen Larkin Bell to serve as a director to fill the vacancy resulting from Mr. Crouch’s resignation, effective August 3, 2020. Ms. Bell was also appointed as Chair of the Nominating Committee and as a member of the Audit and Compensation Committees. As part of her compensation for her service as a director and committee member, on August 21, 2020, the board approved a grant of 92,934 RSUs. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of the grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. The awards will result in total compensation expense of $72,953 to be recognized over the vesting period.

2020 Stock Options

On March 17, 2020, (the "March Grant Date"), the Board approved a grant of options to purchase 115,200 shares of the Company's common stock at a strike price of $0.81 to various employees (the "March 2020 Options"). The March 2020 Options terminate four years from the March Grant Date and became exercisable as to one-third of the shares of common stock covered thereby on each anniversary of the March Grant Date for the next three years following the March Grant Date. The March 2020 Options resulted in a total compensation expense of $40,280.

On July 2, 2020 (the "July Grant Date"), upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board approved the grant of a non-qualified stock option to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of Mr. Oviatt and Mr. Tidball under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and pursuant to the standard form of Notice of Stock Option Grant and Stock Option Agreement under the plan (the “July 2020 Options”). The exercise price of the July 2020 Options is equal to the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on July 2, 2020 or $0.8439 per share. The July 2020 Options vest equally over a period of three years from the July Grant Date. Vesting occurs on the anniversary date of the July Grant Date, with one-third of the total shares vesting on each of the first three anniversaries of the July Grant Date. Vesting is contingent upon the executive’s continued employment with the Company on each applicable vesting date. The July 2020 Options expire on July 2, 2024. The July 2020 Options will result in a total compensation expense of $79,431 to be recognized over the vesting period.

On August 21, 2020 (the "August Grant Date"), the Board approved a grant of options to purchase 630,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a strike price of $0.785 to various employees (the "August 2020 Options"). The August 2020 Options terminate four years from the August Grant Date and become exercisable as to one-third of the shares of common stock covered thereby on each anniversary of the August Grant Date for the next three years following the August Grant Date. The August 2020 Options will result in a total compensation expense of $233,111 to be recognized over the vesting period.

NOTE 8 – REVENUE

Performance Obligations
Our performance obligations include providing product and servicing our product. We recognize product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product is delivered to the customer. Occasionally, if we are shipping the product on a customer’s account, we recognize revenue when the product has been shipped. At that point in time, the control of the product is transferred to the customer. When we perform service work, we apply the practical expedient that allows us to recognize service revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed. We do not engage in transactions acting as an agent. The time needed to complete our performance obligations varies based on the size of the project; however, we typically satisfy our performance obligations within a few months of entering into the applicable sales contract or service contract.

Our customers have the right to return certain unused and unopened products within 90 days for a restocking fee. We provide a warranty on some of our products ranging from 90 days to 2 years, depending on the product. See note 5 for the amount accrued for expected returns and warranty claims as of March 31, 2021.

Contract Balances
We have elected to use the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4 (regarding recognition of the incremental costs of obtaining a contract) for costs related to contracts that are estimated to be completed within one year. All of our current sales contracts and service contracts are expected to be completed within one year, and as a result, we have not recognized a contract asset account. If we had chosen not to use this practical expedient, we would not expect a material difference in the

Overview

We are a technology company providing solutions that enhance the efficiency, safety, and reliability of industrial combustion appliances while mitigating potential environmental impacts related to the operation of these devices. Our legacy business is primarily focused in the upstream, midstream, and downstream transmission segments of the oil and gas industry; however, we have commenced identifying applications in other industries where we believe our solutions will be applicable as we expand our addressable market over time. We specialize in the engineering and design of burner and combustion management systems and solutions used on a variety of natural and forced draft applications. We sell our products and services primarily throughout North America. Our experienced team of sales and service professionals are strategically positioned across the United States and Canada providing support and service for our products.

Principal Products and Services

Across the energy industry, there are numerous demands for heat generation and control. Applications such as combustors, enclosed flares, gas production units, treaters, glycol and amine reboilers, indirect line-heaters, heated tanks, and process heaters require heat as part of their production and or processing functions. This heat is generated through the process of combustion, which must be controlled, managed, and supervised. Combustion and the resulting generation of heat are integral to the process of separating, treating, storing, incinerating, and transporting oil and gas. Factors such as specific gravity, the presence of hydrates, temperature and hydrogen sulfide content contribute to the need for heat generation in oil and gas production and processing applications. Our burner-management systems ignite, monitor, and manage pilot and burner systems that are utilized in this process. Our technology affords remote operation, reducing the need for employee interaction with the appliance's burner for purposes such as re-ignition or temperature monitoring. In addition, our burner-management systems can help reduce emissions by efficiently reigniting a failed flame, thereby improving efficiencies and up-time. Our extensive service and combustion experience provide customers with solutions that are consistent with industry trends and regulatory requirements to mitigate environmental impacts and reduce emissions through increased efficiency.

Oil and gas companies, including upstream, midstream, downstream, pipeline, and gathering operators, utilize burner-management systems to achieve increased safety, greater operational efficiencies, and improved compliance with industry regulations. Without a burner-management system, a field employee must discover and reignite an extinguished burner flame, then restart the application manually. Therefore, without a proper burner-management system, all application monitoring must be accomplished in-person, directly on-site. This requirement for on-site monitoring, in an environment with limited field personnel, can result in the potential interruption of production for long periods of time and increased risks associated with reigniting a flame, which can lead to site hazards, including explosions and the possibility of venting gas into the atmosphere. In addition, without a burner -management system, burners often operate for longer durations, frequently with lower efficiency, resulting in increased equipment fatigue and greater expense related to fuel consumption. We continue to assess regulatory requirements on behalf of our customers. We believe that burner-management systems and services offer solutions for customers to meet compliance standards where applicable. In addition to product sales, we dispatch specialized service technicians to provide maintenance and installation support throughout the United States and Canada.

We initially developed our first burner-management controller in 2005. Since that time, our systems have become widely adopted throughout the United States and Western Canada. Profire burner-management systems have been designed to comply with widely accepted safety and industrial codes and standards in North America, including those proscribed and certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) standards.

Our systems and solutions have been widely adopted by exploration and production companies (E&P), midstream operators, pipeline operators, as well as downstream transmission and utility providers. Our customers include, EQT, Antero, Chevron, Concho Resources, Devon Energy, XTO, CNRL, Cenovus, Hess, Pioneer Natural Resources, Williams, Dominion, ATCO, and others. Our systems have also been sold and installed in other parts of the world including many countries in South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Though firmly established and primarily focused on North American oil and gas markets, we continue to invest in expansion efforts in international markets and the broader combustion industries.

Environmental, Social and Governance Focus

As guiding principles and core to our strategy, our products and solutions are developed with a focus on safety, environmental impacts, reliability and efficiency. Protecting human life, protecting the environment, and protecting our customers’ investments are key guiding principles. Our products play a key role in supporting our customers’ existing and future initiatives regarding improving workplace safety and environmental impacts.

Our burner-management technology is designed to monitor, operate, and manage a wide array of complex industrial heat-applications. Providing our customers with safety-approved and certified technology, purposefully designed and built to meet regulatory requirements and process needs, is a critical component of our customers’ safety protocols and initiatives.

Proper burner and combustion management control, coupled with peripheral solutions, increase site and location safety while reducing emissions. Profire technology and solutions are integrated into a variety of applications to significantly reduce the release of methane and volatile organic compounds into the environment.

15


Profire burner-management controls and complementary solutions provide users with the ability to monitor field equipment remotely. This reduces truck rolls and the need for field personnel to travel to and manually inspect burner malfunctions in remote sites and locations. Our automated solutions help our customers improve safety, reduce emissions, and decrease operating costs.

Operator safety is at the heart of burner-management solution technology. The use of these systems helps our customers increase the likelihood that their employees return home safe each day. Adding greater physical distance between humans and the combustion process, as well as ensuring gas supplies are properly shutoff when no flame is present, are two of the critical elements of how our burner-management solutions help protect human life.

Results of Operations

Comparison quarter over quarter

The table below presents certain financial data comparing the most recent quarter to prior quarters:
For the three months ended
March 31, 2021December 31, 2020September 30, 2020June 30, 2020March 31, 2020
Total Revenues$5,092,349 $5,651,883 $4,000,106 $4,359,479 $7,447,142 
Gross Profit Percentage42.7 %48.7 %38.0 %47.9 %42.5 %
Operating Expenses$2,978,912 $2,762,437 $2,849,921 $3,164,318 $3,829,736 
Net Income (Loss)$(601,500)$55,918 $(1,057,748)$(808,504)$(365,264)
Operating Cash Flow$1,820,665 $141,723 $(724,342)$575,941 $271,078 

Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 decreased by 32% or $2,354,793 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which was mostly driven by macro industry changes and the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic over the past year. The average oil price during the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $58.09 per barrel compared to $45.34 per barrel for the same period of last year, representing an increase of 28.1%. However, the first quarter of 2021 weekly average rig count for North America was 522 compared to 958 in the same period of last year, which represents a decrease of 46%. Although oil prices have recovered somewhat from the historic fall in 2020 which was caused by a flood of supply from Russia and Saudi Arabia and a dramatic drop in global demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the operating environment in the first quarter of 2021 continued to be characterized by uncertainty surrounding economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical factors. This uncertainty continued to create strain in oil supply and demand dynamics. As a result of these extraordinary macro pressures and uncertainties, exploration and production companies have remained cautious and are not currently investing in new production like they were prior to the pandemic. Until our customers return to more normal capital expenditure levels, our business is likely to continue to be adversely affected.

Our gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2021 was up slightly from the same quarter of last year but was below our normally expected range. The gross margin percentage normally fluctuates each quarter due to changes in product mix and product related reserves, which contributed to the change in gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2021. In addition, the significant decrease in revenue for the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same quarter last year also caused the fixed cost portion of cost of goods and services to push the product margin lower than historic levels. Although we took actions during 2020 to reduce costs and adjust the cost structure of the Company to reduce the fixed cost burden on gross margin, our fixed costs will continue to impact our gross profit margin until revenues recover.

Operating expenses decreased $850,824 from the same quarter of last year, which reflected a focus on cost control measures as we navigate the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting oil market supply and demand imbalance. We expect that our operating expenses, particularly labor and travel costs, will increase to levels more consistent with pre-pandemic amounts in 2021 as economies recover from the pandemic and demand for oil and gas increases.

Due to the significantly lower revenues discussed above, we reported a net loss of $601,500 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 compared to net loss of $365,264 for the same quarter in 2020.

Operating cash flows increased significantly during the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020, due primarily to a focus on customer collection efforts and the sale of the remaining bays from our old office building in Canada, which took place during the period.
16



The global COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact our business during the first quarter of 2021 and will likely continue to impact our business in future quarters. However, we remain optimistic that our results of operations will improve as vaccine distribution increases, which we anticipate will result in improved economic conditions and improved demand for oil and gas.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital at March 31, 2021 was $22,677,200, compared to $23,420,475 at December 31, 2020.

Our liquidity position is impacted by operating, investing and financing activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we generated $1,820,665 of positive cash flow from operating activities, primarily due to cash received from customer sales and from the sale of remaining bays from our old office building in Canada, partially offset by the impact of changes in income tax, accounts payable and accrued liabilities accounts. Operating activity trends consist of cash inflows and outflows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we used $468,871 of cash in investing activities, primarily due to new investment purchases. Investing activity trends consist of changes in the mix of our investment portfolio, purchases or sales of fixed assets, and acquisition activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we used $37,856 of cash in financing activities, primarily related to equity awards issued to management. Financing activity trends consist of transactions related to equity awards and purchases or sales of treasury stock. We did not purchase any treasury stock during the first quarter of 2021. The extent to which the global COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect our liquidity position will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. As of March 31, 2021, we held $19,358,668 of cash and investments that form our core excess liquidity which could be utilized, if required, due to the issues described above. See also Item 1A.  Risk Factors for further discussion on the impact of COVID-19 on our business.
