NEWPARK RESOURCES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Newpark Resources, Inc. is a geographically diversified supplier providing products, as well as rentals and services. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Newpark Resources, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, which we collectively refer to as “we,” “our,” or “us,” have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and do not include all information and footnotes required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020. Our fiscal year end is December 31 and our first quarter represents the three-month period ended March 31. The results of operations for the first quarter of 20202021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. Unless otherwise noted, all currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 20202021 and our results of operations and cash flows for the first quarter of 20202021 and 2019.2020. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Our balance sheet at December 31, 20192020 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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. For further information, see Note 1 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
We operate our business through 2 reportable segments: Fluids Systems and Industrial Solutions. Our Fluids Systems segment provides customized drilling, completion, and stimulation fluids solutions to oil and natural gas exploration and production (“E&P”) customers primarily in North America and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), as well as certain countries in Asia Pacific and Latin America. Our Industrial Solutions segment includes our Site and Access Solutions business (historically reported as the Mats and Integrated Services segment), along with our Industrial Blending operations. Site and Access Solutions provides composite matting system rentals utilized for temporary worksite access, along with related site construction and services to customers in various markets including electrical utilities, E&P, pipeline, renewable energy, petrochemical, construction and other industries, primarily in the United States and Europe. We also sell our manufactured composite mats to customers around the world, with electrical utilities being the primary end-market. Our Industrial Blending operations began in 2020, leveraging our chemical blending capacity and technical expertise to enter targeted industrial end-markets.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Standards Adopted in 2020
Credit Losses. In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance which requires financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, including trade receivables, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new guidance requires an entity to estimate its lifetime “expected credit loss” for such assets at inception, which will generally result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Under previous guidance, reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable were determined on a specific identification basis when we believed that the required payment of specific amounts owed to us was not probable. Under the new guidance, our allowance for credit losses reflects losses that are expected over the contractual life of the asset, and takes into account historical loss experience, current and future economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
We adopted this new guidance as of January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective transition method, and recorded a net reduction of $0.7 million to opening retained earnings to reflect the cumulative effect of adoption. Results for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2019 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with previous guidance. See Note 4 for additional required disclosures.
The cumulative effect of the changes made to our consolidated balance sheet for the adoption of the new accounting guidance for credit losses were as follows:

Income Taxes: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. In December 2019, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. We adopted this new guidance as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of this new guidance had no material impact on our financial statements or related disclosures.
Standards Not Yet Adopted
Debt: Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. In August 2020, the FASB issued new guidance which is intended to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments. This guidance iswill be effective for us in the first quarter of 2022. As our existing convertible instrument matures in December 2021, with earlywe do not expect the adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating theof this guidance to have a material impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements andor related disclosures.

For the first quarter of 2021 and 2020, we excluded all potentially dilutive stock options and restricted stock awards in calculating diluted earnings per share as the effect was anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred for this period.these periods. The Convertible Notes (as defined in Note 6) only impact the calculation of diluted net income per share in periods that the average price of our common stock, as calculated in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes, exceeds the conversion price of $9.33 per share. We have the option to pay cash, issue shares of common stock, or any combination thereof for the aggregate amount due upon conversion of the Convertible Notes as further described in Note 6. If converted, we currently intend to settle the principal amount of the notes in cash and as a result, only the amounts payable in excess of the principal amount of the notes, if any, would be assumed to be settled with shares of common stock for purposes of computing diluted net income per share.
Note 3 – Repurchase Program
Our securities repurchase program remains available for repurchases of any combination of our common stock and our Convertible Notes. The repurchase program has no specific term. Repurchases are expected to be funded from operating cash flows, available cash on hand, and borrowings under our ABL Facility (as defined in Note 6). As part of the share repurchase program, our management has been authorized to establish trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of March 31, 2020,2021, we had $67.2$33.8 million remaining under the program.
During the first quarter of 2021, we repurchased $18.3 million of our Convertible Notes in the open market under the repurchase program for a total cost of $18.1 million. During the first quarter of 2020, we repurchased $14.5 million of our Convertible Notes in the open market under the repurchase program for a total cost of $13.8 million. There were 0 Convertible Notes repurchased under the program during 2019.
There were 0 shares of common stock repurchased under the repurchase program during the first quarter of 2021 or 2020. During the first quarter of 2019, we repurchased an aggregate of 655,666 shares of our common stock under the program for a total cost of $5.0 million.

We adopted the new accounting guidance for credit losses as of January 1, 2020 (see Note 1 for additional information). To measure expected credit losses, we evaluate our receivables on a collective basis for assets that share similar risk characteristics. Our allowance for credit losses reflects losses that are expected over the contractual life of the asset, and takes into account historical loss experience, current and future economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.2020.

Convertible Notes. In December 2016, we issued $100.0 million of unsecured convertible senior notes (“Convertible Notes”) that mature on December 1, 2021, of which $85.5$48.6 million principal amount was outstanding at March 31, 2020.2021. The notes bear interest at a rate of 4.0% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year.
Holders may convert the notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding June 1, 2021, only under the following circumstances:
during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (regardless of whether consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price of the notes in effect on each applicable trading day;
during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day was less than 98% of the last reported sale price of our common stock on such date multiplied by the conversion rate on each such trading day; or
upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as described in the indenture governing the notes, such as a consolidation, merger, or share exchange.
On or after June 1, 2021 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of whether any of the foregoing conditions have been satisfied. As of May 4, 2020,3, 2021, the notes were not convertible.
The notes are convertible into, at our election, cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of both, subject to satisfaction of specified conditions and during specified periods, as described above. If converted, we currently intend to pay cash for the principal amount of the notes converted. The conversion rate is 107.1381 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $9.33 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. We may not redeem the notes prior to their maturity date.
In accordance with accounting guidance for convertible debt with a cash conversion option, we separately accounted for the debt and equity components of the notes in a manner that reflected our estimated nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the carrying amount of the debt component was $76.2$46.3 million, which is net of the unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs of $9.3$2.3 million. Including the impact of the unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs, the effective interest rate on the notes is approximately 11.3%.
During the first quarter of 2020,2021, we repurchased $14.5$18.3 million of our Convertible Notes in the open market for a total cost of $13.8$18.1 million, and recognized a net loss of $0.9$0.8 million reflecting the difference in the amount paid and the net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including original issue discount and debt issuance costs.
Asset-Based Loan Facility. In May 2016, we entered into an asset-based revolving credit agreement, which replaced our previous credit agreement. Inwas amended in October 2017 we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and in March 2019 we entered into a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “ABL Facility”). The ABL Facility provides financing of up to $200.0 million available for borrowings (inclusive of letters of credit) and can be increased up to a maximum capacity of $275.0 million, subject to certain conditions. As of March 31, 2020,2021, our total availability under the ABL Facility was $151.0$88.3 million, of which $79.0$11.0 million was drawn, resulting in remaining availability of $72.0$77.2 million.
10


The ABL Facility terminates in March 2024; however, the ABL Facility has a springing maturity date that will accelerate the maturity of the ABL Facility to September 1, 2021 if, prior to such date, the Convertible Notes have not been repurchased, redeemed, refinanced, exchanged or otherwise satisfied in full or we have not escrowed an amount of funds, that together with the amount that we establish as a reserve against our borrowing capacity, is sufficient for the future settlement of the Convertible Notes at their maturity. The ABL Facility requires compliance with a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.0 calculated based on the trailing twelve-month period ended June 30, 2021 and minimumremaining unused availability of at least $25.0 million to utilize borrowings or assignment of availability under the ABL Facility towards funding the repayment of the Convertible Notes.
Borrowing availability under the ABL Facility is calculated based on eligible U.S. accounts receivable, inventory, and, subject to satisfaction of certain financial covenants as described below, composite mats included in the rental fleet, net of reserves and limits on such assets included in the borrowing base calculation. To the extent pledged by us, the borrowing base calculation also includes the amount of eligible pledged cash. The lender may establish such reserves, in part based on appraisals of the asset base, and other limits at its discretion which could reduce the amounts otherwise available under the ABL Facility. Availability associated with eligible rental mats will also be subject to maintaining a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.5 to 1.0 and a minimum levelat least $1.0 million of operating income for the MatsSite and Integrated Services segment.Access Solutions business, each calculated based on a trailing twelve-month period.
As of May 3, 2021, our total availability under the ABL Facility was $82.6 million, of which $16.0 million was drawn, resulting in remaining availability of $66.5 million. This availability under the ABL Facility excludes $24.2 million related to eligible rental mats as we failed to satisfy the required minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, as measured on the trailing twelve-month period ended March 31, 2021. We expect to satisfy the minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio as required to include eligible rental mats in the borrowing availability under the ABL Facility following the second quarter of 2021 and expect to satisfy the June 30, 2021 ABL Facility requirements to be able to utilize borrowings or assignment of availability under the ABL Facility towards funding the repayment of the Convertible Notes prior to September 1, 2021.
Under the terms of the ABL Facility, we may elect to borrow at a variable interest rate based on either, (1) LIBOR subject to a floor of zero or (2) a base rate equal to the highest of: (a) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. and (c) LIBOR, subject to a floor of zero, plus 100 basis points, plus, in each case, an applicable margin per annum. The applicable margin ranges from 150 to 200 basis points for LIBOR borrowings, and 50 to 100 basis points for base rate borrowings, based on the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the ABL Facility. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the applicable margin for borrowings under our ABL Facility was 150200 basis points with respect to LIBOR borrowings and 50100 basis points with respect to base rate borrowings. The weighted average interest rate for the ABL Facility was 2.4%2.1% at March 31, 2020.2021. In addition, we are required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the ABL Facility ranging from 25 to 37.5 basis points, based on the level of outstanding borrowings, as defined in the ABL Facility. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the applicable commitment fee was 37.5 basis points.
The ABL Facility is a senior secured obligation, secured by first liens on substantially all of our U.S. tangible and intangible assets, and a portion of the capital stock of our non-U.S. subsidiaries has also been pledged as collateral. The ABL Facility contains customary operating covenants and certain restrictions including, among other things, the incurrence of additional debt, liens, dividends, asset sales, investments, mergers, acquisitions, affiliate transactions, stock repurchases and other restricted payments. The ABL Facility also requires compliance with a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 calculated based on a trailing twelve-month period if availability under the ABL Facility falls below $22.5 million. In addition, the ABL Facility contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, a failure to make payments under the facility, acceleration of more than $25.0 million of other indebtedness, certain bankruptcy events, and certain change of control events.
Other Debt. In February 2021, a U.K. subsidiary entered a £6.0 million (approximately $8.3 million) term loan facility that matures in February 2024, the proceeds of which were used to pay down the ABL Facility. The term loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 3.4% per year, payable in quarterly installments of £375,000 plus interest beginning March 2021 and a £1.5 million payment due at maturity. We had $7.8 million outstanding under this arrangement at March 31, 2021.
Certain of our other foreign subsidiaries maintain local credit arrangements consisting primarily of lines of credit or overdraft facilities which are generally renewed on an annual basis. We utilize local financing arrangements in our foreign operations in order to provide short-term local liquidity needs. We had $6.7$6.5 million and $4.8$3.5 million outstanding under these arrangements at March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.
In addition, at March 31, 2020,2021, we had $49.8$50.2 million in outstanding letters of credit, performance bonds, and other guarantees for which certain of the letters of credit are collateralized by $7.6$5.8 million in restricted cash.
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, and debt. We believe the carrying values of these instruments, with the exception of our Convertible Notes, approximated their fair values at March 31, 20202021 and
11


December 31, 2019.2020. The estimated fair value of our Convertible Notes was $63.8$48.1 million at March 31, 20202021 and $101.4$61.1 million at December 31, 2019,2020, based on quoted market prices at these respective dates.

Note 7 – Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $3.0 million for the first quarter of 2021, despite reporting a pretax loss for the period, primarily reflecting the impact of the geographic composition of our pretax loss. The tax expense primarily relates to earnings from our international operations since we are currently unable to recognize the tax benefit from our U.S. losses as they may not be realized. The provision for income taxes was $0.2 million for the first quarter of 2020, despite reporting a pretax loss. This result primarily reflects the impact of the geographic composition of our pretax loss, where the tax benefit from losses in the U.S was more than offset by the tax expense related to earnings from our international operations. The provision for income taxes was $1.8 million foroperations is only partially offset by the first quarter of 2019, reflecting an effective tax rate of 58%. The 2019 effective tax rate was negatively impacted by $0.7 million of discrete tax adjustments relative to the amount of pre-tax income.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted on March 27, 2020benefit from losses in the United States. The CARES Act contains several tax provisions, including but not limited to additional carryback opportunities for net operating losses, temporary increases in the interest deductibility threshold, and the acceleration of refunds for any remaining alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) carryforwards. While there was no material impact from the CARES Act in our provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2020, we are continuing to evaluate the provisions of the CARES Act and currently anticipate filing an amendment to our 2018 U.S. federal income tax return in the second quarter of 2020 to accelerate the refund of $0.7 million of AMT carryforwards.
The CARES Act also permits most companies to defer paying their portion of certain applicable payroll taxes from the date the CARES Act was signed into law through December 31, 2020. The deferred amount will be due in two equal installments on December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. While we anticipate deferrals of applicable payroll taxes through December 31, 2020, there were no deferrals at March 31, 2020.

Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of conducting our business, we become involved in litigation and other claims from private party actions, as well as judicial and administrative proceedings involving governmental authorities at the federal, state, and local levels. While the outcome of litigation or other proceedings against us cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not expect that any loss resulting from such litigation or other proceedings, in excess of any amounts accrued or covered by insurance, will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Kenedy, Texas Drilling Fluids Facility Fire
In July 2018, a fire occurred at our Kenedy, Texas drilling fluids facility, destroying the distribution warehouse, including inventory and surrounding equipment. In addition, nearby residences and businesses were evacuated as part of the response to the fire. In order to avoid any customer service disruptions, we implemented contingency plans to supply products from alternate facilities in the area and region. Subsequently, we received petitions seeking payment for alleged bodily injuries, property damage, and punitive damages claimed to have been incurred as a result of the fire and the subsequent efforts we undertook to remediate any potential smoke damage. As of March 31, 2020, there are open claims remaining with 4 plaintiffs. We have been advised by our insurer that these claims are insured under our insurance programs. As of March 31, 2020, the claims related to the fire under our property, business interruption, and general liability insurance programs have not been finalized.

We recognized $1.4 million of charges for inventory write-downs and severance costs in the first quarter of 2020, with $1.2 million in the Fluids Systems segment and $0.2 million in the Corporate office. During March 2020, oil prices collapsed due to geopolitical events along with the worldwide effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. As of May 1, 2020, the U.S. active rig count was 408, reflecting a 48% decline from the first quarter 2020 average level, and is expected to continue to significantly decline in the coming months. In response to the deteriorating U.S. land oil and natural gas market, we initiated certain headcount reductions and other cost reduction programs late in the first quarter of 2020, and these actions have continued into the second quarter of 2020. As a result, we expect to recognize additional severance charges and certain facility exit costs in the second quarter of 2020; however, such amounts are not currently estimable.
We also made the decision in late 2019 to wind down our Brazil operations. At March 31, 2020, we had $11.6 million of accumulated translation losses related to our subsidiary in Brazil. As such, we will reclassify these losses and recognize a charge to income at such time when we have substantially liquidated our subsidiary in Brazil.

As of March 31, 2020, our consolidated balance sheet includes $42.1 million of goodwill, all of which relates to the Mats and Integrated Services segment. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually as of November 1, or more frequently, if indicators of impairment exists. In March 2020, primarily as a result of the collapse in oil prices and the expected declines in the U.S. land E&P markets, along with a significant decline in the quoted market prices of our common stock, we considered these developments to be a potential indicator of impairment that required us to complete an interim goodwill impairment evaluation. As such, in March 2020, we estimated the fair value of our Mats and Integrated Services reporting unit based on our current forecasts and expectations for market conditions and determined that even though the estimated fair value had decreased, the fair value remained substantially in excess of its net carrying value, and therefore, no impairment was required.
As of March 31, 2020, our consolidated balance sheet also includes $305.7 million of property, plant and equipment, net, and $27.5 million of finite-lived intangible assets, net, which combined includes $170.8 million in the Fluids Systems segment and $150.8 million in the Mats and Integrated Services segment. We review property, plant and equipment, finite-lived intangible assets and certain other assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We assess recoverability based on expected undiscounted future net cash flows. With the market uncertainty as discussed above, we completed an impairment review of such assets in March 2020, which indicated that the estimated undiscounted cash flows exceeded the carrying value, and therefore, no impairment was required.

ITEM 2.    Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion of our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this report as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020. Our first quarter represents the three-month period ended March 31. Unless otherwise noted, all currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars. The reference to a “Note” herein refers to the accompanying Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 “Financial Statements.”
Overview
We are a geographically diversified supplier providing products, as well as rentals and services. We operate our business through two reportable segments: Fluids Systems, which primarily serves the oil and natural gas exploration and production (“("E&P”&P") industry,customers, and Mats and Integrated Services,Industrial Solutions, which serves various markets including electrical utilities, E&P, pipeline, renewable energy, petrochemical, construction and other industries.
Our long-term strategy includes key foundational elements that are intended to enhance long-term shareholder value creation:
End-market diversification – To help reduce our dependency on customers in the volatile E&P industry, improve the stability in cash flow generation and returns on invested capital, and provide growth opportunities into new markets, we have focused our efforts over the past several years on diversifying our presence outside of our historical E&P customer base. These efforts have been primarily focused within our Site and Access Solutions business, where we have prioritized growth in electrical utilities, pipeline, renewable energy, and construction markets. In the first quarter of 2021, our Industrial Solutions segment generated $53 million of revenues, including approximately $45 million from electrical utilities and other non-E&P markets. The continued diversification of our revenues, including end-markets that are likely to benefit from ongoing energy transition efforts around the world, such as electrical utilities, renewable energy, and geothermal, remains a strategic priority going forward, and we anticipate that our capital investments will primarily focus on industrial end-market expansion.
Provide products that enhance environmental sustainability – Our Company has a long history of providing environmentally-friendly technologies to our customers. In the Industrial Solutions segment, we believe the lightweight design of our fully recyclable DURA-BASE® matting system provides a distinct environmental advantage for our customers as compared to alternative wood mat products in the market, by eliminating deforestation required to produce wood mat products while also reducing CO2 emissions associated with product transportation. In our Fluids Systems segment, our family of high-performance water-based fluids systems, which we market as Evolution® and DeepDrill® systems, are designed to enhance drilling performance while also providing a variety of industries, including E&P, electrical transmission & distribution, pipeline, solar, petrochemical,environmental benefits relative to traditional oil-based fluids. The continued advancement of technology that provides our customers with economic benefits, while also enhancing their environmental and construction industries.safety programs, remains a priority for our research and development efforts.
Our Fluids Systems operating results particularly for the Fluids Systems segment, dependremain dependent on oil and natural gas drilling activity levels in the markets we serve and the nature of the drilling operations (including the depth and whether the wells are drilled vertically or horizontally), which governs the revenue potential of each well. Drilling activity levels, in turn, depend on a variety of factors, including oil and natural gas commodity pricing, inventory levels, product demand, and regulatory restrictions. Oil and natural gas prices and activity are cyclical and volatile, and this market volatility has a significant impact on our operating results.

While our Fluids Systems revenue potential is driven by a number of factors including those described above, rig count data remains the most widely accepted indicator of drilling activity. Average North American rig count data for the first quarter of 20202021 as compared to the first quarter of 20192020 is as follows:

During 2019, U.S. rig counts steadily declined, exiting the year at 805 active rigs, a 26% decline from the end of 2018. During March 2020, oil prices collapsed due to geopolitical events along with the worldwide effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, U.S. rig counts havecount declined further,significantly beginning in late March 2020 before reaching a low of 244 in mid-August 2020. The average U.S. rig count increased 27% sequentially in the first quarter of 2021 and was 440 as of May 1, 2020,April 30, 2021. We anticipate that market activity will continue to improve from current levels, although the U.S. activeongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and an uncertain economic environment make the timing and pace of recovery difficult to predict. The Canada rig count was 408, reflecting a 48% decline from the first quarter 2020 average level, and is expected to continue to significantly decline in the coming months. With the continued decline in the U.S. land market rig count over the past several weeks, we expect revenues from U.S. land markets will significantly decline in the near term, driven by the anticipated reductions in E&P drilling and completion activity. The Canada active rig count was 2751 as of May 1, 2020,April 30, 2021, largely reflecting the normal seasonality for this market, with the highest rig count levels generally observed in the first quarter of each year, prior to Spring break-up; however, the current weakness in oil prices are expected to lead to lower activity in Canada throughout 2020.break-up.
Outside of North America land markets, drilling activity is generally more stable as this drilling activity in many countries is based on longer-term economic projections and multi-year drilling programs, which tends to reducetypically reduces the impact of short-term changes in commodity prices on overall drilling activity. However, operations in several countries in the EMEA region experienced activity disruptions and project delays beginning in March 2020 and continuing into 2021, driven by government-imposed restrictions on movements of personnel, quarantines of staffing, and logistical limitations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and wepandemic. We expect these disruptions and project delays will continue to continue throughoutimpact international activity levels in the second quarter of 2020. Whilenear-term, and while we anticipate a general improvement in customer activity as we progress through 2021, the impact from the duration and magnitude of the ongoing health pandemic and related government responses are very difficult to predict, we currently estimate our international revenues will decline sequentially by at least $10 million in the second quarter of 2020.predict.
In response to the deteriorating U.S. land oil and natural gas2020 market changes and reduced demand for our products and services as a result of the decline in oil prices and the COVID-19 pandemic, we initiatedtook a number of actions late in the first quarter ofduring 2020 aimed at conserving cash and protecting our liquidity, and these actions have continued intowhich included the second quarter of 2020, including:
The implementation of cost reduction programs, including workforce reductions, employee furloughs, the suspension of the Company’s matching contributions to its U.S. defined contribution plan, and temporary salary reductions

effective April 1, 2020 for a significant portion of U.S. employees, including a 15% cut to the salaries paid to executive officers and the annual cash retainers paid to all non-employee members of the Board of Directors;
The initiation of additional actions to further reduce the operational footprint of the Fluids Systems business in U.S. land, to better align our cost structure with expected declines in market activity levels; and
The elimination of all non-critical capital investments, which reduces our expected full year 2020 capital expenditures to approximately $15 million to $20 million.
employees. We recognized total charges of $29.2 million in 2020, including $1.4 million during the first quarter of charges2020 for inventory write-downs and severance costs in the first quarter of 2020, with $1.2 million in the Fluids Systems segment and $0.2 million in the Corporate office. In addition, as a result of the ongoing cost reduction programs described above, we expect to recognize additional severance charges and certain facility exit costs in the second quarter of 2020; however, such amounts are not currently estimable.charges. While we have taken certain actions to reduce our workforce and cost structure, our business contains high levels of fixed costs, including significant facility and personnel expenses.expense. Beginning in the second quarter of 2021, we restored salaries to pre-reduction levels for a portion of our non-executive U.S. employees and reinstituted the Company matching contribution for our U.S. defined contribution plan. We continue to evaluate under-performing areas within the Fluids Systems segment as well as opportunities to further enable a more efficient and scalable cost structure. In the absence of a longer-term increase in activity levels, we may incur future charges related to further cost reduction efforts or potential asset impairments, which may negatively impact our future results.
Segment Overview
Fluids Systems - Our Fluids Systems segment, which generated 81%62% of consolidated revenues for the first quarter of 2020,2021, provides customized drilling, completion, and stimulation fluids solutionsproducts and related technical services to E&P customers for oil, natural gas, and geothermal projects primarily in North America and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), as well as certain countries in Asia Pacific and Latin America. InternationalDespite the continuing effects of COVID-19 impacting international customer activity, expansion outside of North America, including the penetration of international oil companies (“IOCs”) and national oil companies (“NOCs”), isremains a key element of our Fluids Systems strategy, which has historically helped to stabilize segment revenues while North American oil and natural gas exploration activities have fluctuated significantly. Revenues from IOC and NOC customers represented approximately 38%31% of Fluids Systems segment revenues for the first quarter of 2020.
In addition2021 compared to our international expansion efforts, we have also expanded our presence in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, capitalizing on our capabilities, infrastructure, and strong market position, as well as through product line extensions into adjacent product offerings, including completion fluids. Revenues for drilling and completion fluids from offshore Gulf of Mexico increased to $16 million38% for the first quarter of 2020, comparedwith the decrease primarily due to $6 million for the first quarter of 2019.COVID-related activity disruptions and project delays.
In response to the increasing market demand for cleaning products following the COVID-19 pandemic, we are leveraging our chemical blending capacity and technical expertise to begin producing a variety of disinfectants and cleaning products in the second quarter of 2020. In April 2020, we received our first customer order as part of this effort, and we are working with several other potential customers with plans to ramp up production over the next several months.
Industrial Solutions - Our Mats and Integrated ServicesIndustrial Solutions segment, which generated 19%38% of consolidated revenues for the first quarter of 2020,2021, provides engineered composite matmatting system rentals utilized for temporary worksite access, along with related site construction and services to customers in various markets including electrical utilities, E&P, electrical transmission & distribution, pipeline, solar,renewable energy, petrochemical, construction and constructionother industries, across North Americaprimarily in the United States and Europe. We also sell our manufactured composite mats to customers around the world.world, with electrical utilities being the primary end-market. In addition, we began leveraging our chemical blending capacity and technical expertise into industrial blending operations, and in response

to the increasing market demand for cleaning products resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, began producing disinfectants and industrial cleaning products in 2020. The scale-up of production was completed by the end of the third quarter of 2020, which effectively repositioned our chemical blending operation located in Conroe, Texas to support industrial end-markets. Beginning prospectively in the fourth quarter of 2020, the assets and operating results associated with these industrial blending operations are included in the Industrial Solutions segment, while the historical results from earlier in 2020, which were immaterial, are included in the Fluids Systems segment.
The expansion of our rental and service activities in electrical utilities and other non-E&P markets remains a strategic priority for us due to the market’s relative stability compared to E&P, as well as the magnitude of this market growth opportunity, including the potential positive impact from the energy transition. During 2020, our business was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the market’s relative stability compared to E&P.customers delayed purchases and planned projects citing COVID-related market uncertainty, permitting delays, and logistical restrictions.

Revenues from our international operations increaseddecreased by $2.2$15.2 million (5%(31%), primarily driven by increased activity in our EMEA region.disruptions and project delays resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional information regarding the change in revenues is provided within the operating segment results below.
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues decreased 17%18% to $120.0 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $146.1 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared to $175.0 million for the first quarter of 2019.2020. This $28.9$26.1 million decrease was primarily driven by the 22%14% decrease in revenues described above.

Interest expense, net
Interest expense was $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $3.7 million for the first quarter of 2019.2020. Interest expense for the first quarter of 2021 and 2020 and 2019 includes $1.6$1.1 million and $1.5$1.6 million, respectively, in non-cash amortization of original issue discount and debt issuance costs. The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to lower debt balances.
Loss on extinguishment of debt
In the first quarter of 2021 and 2020, we repurchased $18.3 million and $14.5 million, respectively, of our Convertible Notes in the open market for $18.1 million and $13.8 million, respectively. The $0.8 million loss and $0.9 million loss for the first quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively, reflects the difference in the amount paid and the net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including original issue discount and debt issuance costs, related to the repurchase of $14.5 million of our Convertible Notes in the open market for $13.8 million.costs.
Provision for income taxes
The provision for income taxes was $3.0 million for the first quarter of 2021, despite reporting a pretax loss for the period, primarily reflecting the impact of the geographic composition of our pretax loss. The tax expense primarily relates to earnings from our international operations since we are currently unable to recognize the tax benefit from our U.S. losses as they may not be realized. The provision for income taxes was $0.2 million for the first quarter of 2020, despite reporting a pretax loss. This result primarily reflects the impact of the geographic composition of our pretax loss, where the tax benefit from losses in the U.S was more than offset by the tax expense related to earnings from our international operations. The provision for income taxes was $1.8 million foroperations is only partially offset by the first quarter of 2019, reflecting an effective tax rate of 58%. The 2019 effective tax rate was negatively impacted by $0.7 million of discrete tax adjustments relative tobenefit from losses in the amount of pre-tax income.U.S.

Rental and service revenues decreased $15.1 million to $27.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared to $42.7 million for the first quarter of 2019, which includes a decrease in revenues from E&P customers of $13.9 million, primarily resulting from lower U.S. activity caused by the decline in oil and natural gas prices. Revenues from product sales, which typically fluctuate based on the timing of mat orders from customers, was negativelyfavorably impacted in the first quarter of 2021 by pent-up demand following the COVID-19 pandemic, while the first quarter of 2020 as certainwas negatively impacted by customers delayed ordersdelaying purchases due to the uncertainty relatedCOVID-19 pandemic and market uncertainty. Rental and service revenues increased $1.1 million to $28.7 million for the COVID-19 pandemic.first quarter of 2021, which includes a $4.7 million increase from non-E&P customers partially offset by a $3.6 million decrease from E&P customers. The increase from non-E&P customers reflects our continued expansion into these markets, including an approximately 35% increase in revenues from the electrical utilities sector. The revenue decrease from E&P customers primarily resulted from the lower U.S. drilling activity, along with our focus on supporting the more stable non-E&P customer end-markets.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $27.8 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $4.4 million for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2019.2020. During the first quarter of 2020,2021, net incomeloss adjusted for non-cash items usedprovided cash of $0.4$7.0 million, while changes in working capital provided cash of $4.8$20.8 million.

Capital$8.6 million, substantially offset by $8.0 million in proceeds from the sale of assets. The majority of the proceeds from the sale of assets reflect used mats from our rental fleet, which are part of the commercial offering of our Site and Access Solutions business. Nearly all of our capital expenditures during the first quarter of 2020 included $3.22021 were directed to supporting our Industrial Solutions segment, including $6.9 million for the Mats and Integrated Services segment, includingof investments in the mat rental fleet, as well as new products, and $2.3 million forprimarily supporting the Fluids Systems segment.increasing demand from the electrical utilities sector.
Net cash provided byused in financing activities was $0.9$16.6 million for the first quarter of 2020,2021, which primarily includes net borrowings of $14.0 million on our ABL Facility offset by $13.8$18.1 million in repurchases of our Convertible Notes (as defined below).and a net repayment of $8.1 million on our ABL Facility, partially offset by $8.1 million of net proceeds from a U.K. term loan facility.
WeSubstantially all our $34.2 million of cash on hand at March 31, 2021 resides in our international subsidiaries. Subject to maintaining sufficient cash requirements to support the strategic objectives of these international subsidiaries and complying with applicable exchange or cash controls, we expect our revenues and operating resultsto continue to repatriate excess cash from these international subsidiaries. As we progress through 2021, we anticipate that working capital will be negatively impacted by the decrease in demand for our products and services from the dramatic declinelikely increase in the price of and demand for oil as well as the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic shutdowns around the world. We have initiated a number of actions aimed at conserving cash and protecting our liquidity, including workforce and salary reductions, elimination of all non-critical capital expenditures, as well as actions to reduce our operational footprint to match current and anticipated activity levels by operating region. We currently expect total 2020 capital expenditures to be approximately $15.0 million to $20.0 million. We anticipate thatnear term with future working capital requirements for our operations will fluctuategenerally fluctuating directionally with revenues. As such,We expect capital expenditures in the near term to focus on industrial end-market expansion opportunities that provide stable cash flow generation. In addition, we anticipate thatmay continue to purchase our near-term working capital requirements will decrease as a result of expected declines in revenues as well as on-going effortsConvertible Notes under our existing repurchase program prior to reduce inventory levels. the December 2021 maturity.
Availability under our ABL Facility also provides additional liquidity as discussed further below. Total availability under the ABL Facility will fluctuate directionally based on the level of eligible U.S. accounts receivable, inventory, and, subject to satisfaction of certain financial covenants as described below, composite mats included in the rental fleet. As of May 5, 2020,3, 2021, our total availability under the ABL Facility was $154.3$82.6 million, of which $72.0$16.0 million was drawn, resulting in remaining availability of $82.3$66.5 million.
While substantially all our $49.1 This availability under the ABL Facility excludes $24.2 million of cashrelated to eligible rental mats as we failed to satisfy the required minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, as measured on hand atthe trailing twelve-month period ended March 31, 2020 resides in2021. Based on our international subsidiaries,current projections of operating results through the first half of 2021, we expect to continue to repatriate excess cash from these international subsidiaries, subject to exchange or cash controls andsatisfy the cash requirements to supportfinancial covenants required such that the strategic objectiveseligible rental mats would again be included in the borrowing availability under the ABL Facility following the second quarter of these international subsidiaries. 2021.
We expect our available cash on-hand, cash generated by operations, and remainingthe expected availability under our ABL Facility to be adequate to fund our current operations during the next 12 months and wethe repurchase or repayment of the 2021 Convertible Notes. We also continue to evaluate access to capital and other sources of additional liquidity to support our longer-term liquidity options. In addition, we may continue to purchaseoptions, which include possible financing or alternative arrangements secured by certain assets in the U.S. or our common stock or Convertible Notes under our existing repurchase program from time to time.international operations.

Convertible Notes. In December 2016, we issued $100.0 million of unsecured convertible senior notes (“Convertible Notes”) that mature on December 1, 2021, of which $85.5$48.6 million principal amount was outstanding at March 31, 2020.2021. The notes bear interest at a rate of 4.0% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year.
Holders may convert the notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding June 1, 2021, only under the following circumstances:
during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (regardless of whether consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price of the notes in effect on each applicable trading day;
22


during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day was less than 98% of the last reported sale price of our common stock on such date multiplied by the conversion rate on each such trading day; or
upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as described in the indenture governing the notes, such as a consolidation, merger, or share exchange.
On or after June 1, 2021 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of whether any of the foregoing conditions have been satisfied. As of May 4, 2020,3, 2021, the notes were not convertible.
The notes are convertible into, at our election, cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of both, subject to satisfaction of specified conditions and during specified periods, as described above. If converted, we currently intend to pay cash for the principal amount of the notes converted. The conversion rate is 107.1381 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $9.33 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. We may not redeem the notes prior to their maturity date.
During the first quarter of 2020,2021, we repurchased $14.5$18.3 million of our Convertible Notes in the open market for a total cost of $13.8$18.1 million, and recognized a net loss of $0.9$0.8 million reflecting the difference in the amount paid and the net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including original issue discount and debt issuance costs.
Asset-Based Loan Facility. In May 2016, we entered into an asset-based revolving credit agreement, which replaced our previous credit agreement. Inwas amended in October 2017 we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and in March 2019 we entered into a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “ABL Facility”). The March 2019 amendment increased the amount available for borrowings, reduced applicable borrowing rates, and extended the term. The ABL Facility provides financing of up to $200.0 million available for borrowings (inclusive of letters of credit) and can be increased up to a maximum capacity of $275.0 million, subject to certain conditions. As of March 31, 2020, our total availability under the ABL Facility was $151.0 million, of which $79.0 million was drawn, resulting in remaining availability of $72.0 million.
The ABL Facility terminates in March 2024; however, the ABL Facility has a springing maturity date that will accelerate the maturity of the ABL Facility to September 1, 2021 if, prior to such date, the Convertible Notes have not been repurchased, redeemed, refinanced, exchanged or otherwise satisfied in full or we have not escrowed an amount of funds, that together with the amount that we establish as a reserve against our borrowing capacity, is sufficient for the future settlement of the Convertible Notes at their maturity. The ABL Facility requires compliance with a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.0 calculated based on the trailing twelve-month period ended June 30, 2021 and minimumremaining unused availability of at least $25.0 million to utilize borrowings or assignment of availability under the ABL Facility towards funding the repayment of the Convertible Notes.
22


Borrowing availability under the ABL Facility is calculated based on eligible U.S. accounts receivable, inventory, and, subject to satisfaction of certain financial covenants as described below, composite mats included in the rental fleet, net of reserves and limits on such assets included in the borrowing base calculation. To the extent pledged by us, the borrowing base calculation also includes the amount of eligible pledged cash. The lender may establish such reserves, in part based on appraisals of the asset base, and other limits at its discretion which could reduce the amounts otherwise available under the ABL Facility. Availability associated with eligible rental mats will also be subject to maintaining a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.5 to 1.0 and a minimum levelat least $1.0 million of operating income for the MatsSite and Integrated Services segment.Access Solutions business, each calculated based on a trailing twelve-month period.
As noted above, we do not currently satisfy the minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio that is required to include eligible rental mats in the borrowing availability under the ABL Facility. We expect to satisfy the minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio as required to include eligible rental mats in the borrowing availability under the ABL Facility following the second quarter of 2021 and expect to satisfy the June 30, 2021 ABL Facility requirements to be able to utilize borrowings or assignment of availability under the ABL Facility towards funding the repayment of the Convertible Notes prior to September 1, 2021. If we are unable to satisfy the minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratios following the second quarter of 2021, we would further evaluate options, which may include a waiver or amendment to our ABL Facility. Any waiver or amendment to the ABL Facility, if required, would be expected to increase the cost of our borrowings and may impose additional limitations over certain types of activities, and we can give no assurance that we will be able to obtain such amendment or waiver on favorable terms or at all.
Under the terms of the ABL Facility, we may elect to borrow at a variable interest rate based on either, (1) LIBOR subject to a floor of zero or (2) a base rate equal to the highest of: (a) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. and (c) LIBOR, subject to a floor of zero, plus 100 basis points, plus, in each case, an applicable margin per annum. The applicable margin ranges from 150 to 200 basis points for LIBOR borrowings, and 50 to 100 basis points for base rate borrowings, based on the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the ABL Facility. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the applicable margin for borrowings under our ABL Facility was 150200 basis points with respect to LIBOR borrowings and 50100 basis points with respect to base rate borrowings. The weighted average interest rate for the ABL Facility was 2.4%2.1% at March 31, 2020.2021. In addition, we are required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the ABL Facility ranging from 25 to 37.5 basis points, based on the level of outstanding borrowings, as defined in the ABL Facility. As of March 31, 2020,2021, the applicable commitment fee was 37.5 basis points.
The ABL Facility is a senior secured obligation, secured by first liens on substantially all of our U.S. tangible and intangible assets, and a portion of the capital stock of our non-U.S. subsidiaries has also been pledged as collateral. The ABL Facility contains customary operating covenants and certain restrictions including, among other things, the incurrence of additional debt, liens, dividends, asset sales, investments, mergers, acquisitions, affiliate transactions, stock repurchases and other restricted payments. The ABL Facility also requires compliance with a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 calculated based on a trailing twelve-month period if availability under the ABL Facility falls below $22.5 million. Based on our current projections, we do not expect availability under the ABL Facility to fall below $22.5 million. In addition, the ABL Facility contains customary events of default, including,
23


without limitation, a failure to make payments under the facility, acceleration of more than $25.0 million of other indebtedness, certain bankruptcy events, and certain change of control events.
Other Debt. In February 2021, a U.K. subsidiary entered a £6.0 million (approximately $8.3 million) term loan facility that matures in February 2024, the proceeds of which were used to pay down the ABL Facility. The term loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 3.4% per year, payable in quarterly installments of £375,000 plus interest beginning March 2021 and a £1.5 million payment due at maturity. We had $7.8 million outstanding under this arrangement at March 31, 2021.
Certain of our other foreign subsidiaries maintain local credit arrangements consisting primarily of lines of credit or overdraft facilities which are generally renewed on an annual basis. We utilize local financing arrangements in our foreign operations in order to provide short-term local liquidity needs. We had $6.7$6.5 million and $4.8$3.5 million outstanding under these arrangements at March 31, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively.
In addition, at March 31, 2020,2021, we had $49.8$50.2 million in outstanding letters of credit, performance bonds, and other guarantees for which certain of the letters of credit are collateralized by $7.6$5.8 million in restricted cash.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,(“U.S. GAAP”), which requires usmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures.disclosure. Significant estimates used in preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements include estimated cash flows and fair values used for impairments of long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangibles, and valuation allowances for deferred tax assets. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on our future expectations that we believe to be reasonable. The combination of these factors forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and
23


liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from our current estimates and those differences may be material.
As of March 31, 2020, our consolidated balance sheet includes $42.1 million of goodwill, all of which relates to the Mats and Integrated Services segment. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually as of November 1, or more frequently, if indicators of impairment exists. In March 2020, primarily as a result of the collapse in oil prices and the expected declines in the U.S. land E&P markets, along with a significant decline in the quoted market prices of our common stock, we considered these developments to be a potential indicator of impairment that required us to complete an interim goodwill impairment evaluation. As such, in March 2020, we estimated the fair value of our Mats and Integrated Services reporting unit based on our current forecasts and expectations for market conditions and determined that even though the estimated fair value had decreased, the fair value remained substantially in excess of its net carrying value, and therefore, no impairment was required.
In addition, we review property, plant and equipment, finite-lived intangible assets and certain other assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We assess recoverability based on expected undiscounted future net cash flows. With the market uncertainty as discussed above, we completed an impairment review of such assets in March 2020, which indicated that the estimated undiscounted cash flows exceeded the carrying value, and therefore, no impairment was required.
For additional discussion of our critical accounting estimates and policies, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020. Our critical accounting estimates and policies have not materially changed since December 31, 2019.2020.

ITEM 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. A discussion of our primary market risk exposure in financial instruments is presented below.
Interest Rate Risk
At March 31, 2020,2021, we had total principal amounts outstanding under financing arrangements of $172.2$74.7 million, including $85.5$48.6 million of borrowings under our Convertible Notes which bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.0% and $79.0, as well as $11.0 million of borrowings under our ABL Facility. BorrowingsFacility and $7.8 million of borrowings under our ABL Facilitya U.K. term loan which are subject to a variable interest raterates as determined by the ABL Facility.respective debt agreements. The weighted average interest rate at March 31, 20202021 for the ABL Facility and the U.K. term loan was 2.4%.2.1% and 3.4%, respectively. Based on the balance of variable rate debt at March 31, 2020,2021, a 100 basis-point increase in short-term interest rates would have increased annual pre-tax interest expense by $0.8$0.2 million.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our principal foreign operations are conducted in certain areas of EMEA, Canada, Asia Pacific, and Latin America. We have foreign currency exchange risks associated with these operations, which are conducted principally in the foreign currency of the jurisdictions in which we operate including European euros, Kuwaiti dinar, Algerian dinar, Romanian new leu, Canadian dollars, British pounds, and Australian dollars, and Brazilian reais.dollars. Historically, we have not used off-balance sheet financial hedging instruments to manage foreign currency risks when we enter into a transaction denominated in a currency other than our local currencies.
ITEM 4.    Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2020,2021, the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 20202021 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II         OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.    Legal Proceedings
None.
ITEM 1A.    Risk Factors
Except as set forth below, thereThere have been no material changes during the period ended March 31, 20202021 in our “Risk Factors” as discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Risks Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic
The effects of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, including actions taken by businesses and governments, have resulted in a significant and swift reduction in U.S. and international economic activity. These effects have adversely affected the demand for and price of oil and natural gas, as well as the demand for our products and services. The collapse in the demand for oil caused by this unprecedented global health and economic crisis, coupled with oil oversupply, has had, and is reasonably likely to continue to have, an adverse impact on our customers’ demand for the products and services we provide, which in turn could have a material and adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
While the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is not yet known, we are closely monitoring the effects of the pandemic on commodity demands, our customers and suppliers, as well as our operations and employees. These effects have included, and may continue to include, adverse revenue and profitability effects; disruptions to our operations; customer shutdowns of oil and natural gas exploration and production; employee impacts from illness, school closures and other community response measures; and temporary closures of our facilities or the facilities of our customers and suppliers.
The extent to which our operating and financial results are affected by COVID-19 will depend on various factors beyond our control, such as the duration and scope of the pandemic; additional actions by businesses and governments in response to the pandemic; and the speed and effectiveness of responses to combat the virus, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic activity can resume, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. COVID-19, and the volatile regional and global economic conditions stemming from the pandemic and the collapse in the demand for and price of oil, could also give rise to or aggravate the risk factors that we identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. COVID-19 could also materially and adversely impact our operating and financial results in a manner that is not currently known to us or that we do not currently consider to present significant risks to our operations.
Risks Related to Compliance with the New York Stock Exchange’s Requirements for the Continued Listing of Our Common Stock
We are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) and are required to meet the NYSE’s continued listing standards, including a requirement that the average closing price of our common stock not be below $1.00 per share over any consecutive thirty trading-day period. During March and April 2020, the price of our common stock has at times closed below $1.00 per share. The closing price of our common stock on May 5, 2020 was $1.30 per share and the average closing price of our common stock over the thirty trading-day period ended May 5, 2020 was $1.02 per share.
If we are unable to meet these listing standards and are unable to cure any such non-compliance within the applicable cure period provided by the NYSE, the NYSE could delist our common stock. A delisting of our common stock could negatively impact us by, among other things, reducing the liquidity and market price of our common stock; reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock, which could negatively impact our ability to raise equity financing; limiting our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future; decreasing the amount of news and analyst coverage of us; and causing us reputational harm with investors, our employees, and parties conducting business with us. A delisting of our common stock would constitute a “fundamental change” under the terms of our Convertible Notes, requiring us to make an offer to repurchase the Convertible Notes at par. As of March 31, 2020, $85.5 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Notes was outstanding, and there can be no assurance we would have sufficient funds available to us to repurchase the Convertible Notes if required to do so. Failure to repurchase the Convertible Notes also could cause a cross-default under our ABL Facility, which would permit the holders of the indebtedness to accelerate the maturity thereof and proceed against their collateral and could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.2020.

In November 2018, our Board of Directors authorized changes to our securities repurchase program. These changes increased the authorized amount under the repurchase program to $100.0 million, available for repurchases of any combination of our common stock and our Convertible Notes.
Our repurchase program authorizes us to purchase our outstanding shares of our common stock or Convertible Notes in the open market or as otherwise determined by management, subject to certain limitations under the ABL Facility and other factors. The repurchase program has no specific term. Repurchases are expected to be funded from operating cash flows, available cash on hand, and borrowings under our ABL Facility. As part of the share repurchase program, our management has been authorized to establish trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of March 31, 2020,2021, we had $67.2$33.8 million remaining under the program.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020,2021, we repurchased $14.5$18.3 million of our Convertible Notes in the open market under the repurchase program for a total cost of $13.8$18.1 million.
