In connection with the closing of the Public Offering and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated a private placement (“Private Placement”) of an aggregate of 15,500,000 warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant,Transaction, MPAC changed its name to the Sponsor and the Underwriter, generating gross proceeds of $7,750,000, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $16,824,469, consisting of $6,000,000 of underwriting fees, $10,250,000 of deferred underwriting commissions (which are held in the Trust Account (defined below)) and $574,469 of Public Offering costs. As described in Note 7, the $10,250,000 of deferred underwriting commissions are contingent upon the consummation of an Initial Business Combination by March 15, 2019.

The Trust Account

U.S. Well Services, Inc.

Following the closing of the Public Offering on March 15, 2017, an amount of $325,000,000 from the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the Private Placement was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”). The proceeds held in the Trust Account may be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds investing solely in U.S. treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below, if the Company is unable to complete the Initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering (the “Combination Period”) or upon any earlier liquidation of the Company. The remaining proceeds outside the Trust Account may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.

 The Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, other than the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes, if any, none of the funds held in the Trust Account will be released until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the Initial Business Combination; (ii) the redemption of any Public Shares that have been properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if it does not complete the Initial Business Combination within the Combination Period; and (iii) the redemption of 100% of the Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete an Initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (subject to the requirements of law). The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Company’s public stockholders.

Initial Business Combination

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, althoughTransaction, substantially all of the net proceedsCompany’s assets and operations are intended to be applied generally toward consummating the Initial Business Combination. Nasdaq Capital Marketheld and conducted by U.S. Well Services, LLC (“NASDAQ”USWS LLC”) rules provide that, a wholly owned subsidiary of USWS Holdings, and the Company’s Initial Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80%only assets are equity interests representing 79.9% ownership of USWS Holdings as of June 30, 2019.

Unless the balance in the Trust Account (less any deferred underwriting commissionscontext otherwise requires, “the Company”, “USWS”, “we,” “us,” and taxes payable on interest earned) at the time of the signing of a definitive agreement in connection with the Initial Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully affect an Initial Business Combination.

The Company will provide its stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would require the Company to seek stockholder approval under applicable law or stock exchange listing requirement. The public stockholders will be entitled to redeem their shares“our” refer, for a pro rata portion of the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account ($10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). The Company will proceed with an Initial Business Combination only if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation and a majority of the outstanding shares voted are voted in favor of the Initial Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents with the SECperiods prior to completing an Initial Business Combination. If, however, a stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with an Initial Business Combination, the Company’s directors, officers and the Sponsor have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4) and any Public Shares they may acquire during or after this offering in favor of approving an Initial Business Combination.

If the Company holds a stockholder vote or there is a tender offer for shares in connection with an Initial Business Combination, a public stockholder will have the right to redeem its shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. As a result, such shares of Class A common stock will be recorded at redemption amount and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Public Offering, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”

7

The Company will also provideTransaction, to USWS Holdings and its stockholders with the opportunity to redeem allsubsidiaries and, for periods upon or a portion of their Public Shares in connection with any stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of Public Shares if it does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The stockholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then on deposit in the Trust Account ($10.00 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). There will be no redemption rights with respect to the Company’s Warrants (as defined in Note 3) in connection with such a stockholder vote to approve such an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not redeem shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.

Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, if the Company is unable to complete the Initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest (which shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.

The Company’s directors and officers and the Sponsor have agreed (i) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and Public Shares in connection withafter the completion of the Initial Business Combination,Transaction, to US Well Services, Inc. and (ii) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination within the Combination Period). The Underwriter also agreed to waive its rights to deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not consummate the Initial Business Combination within the Combination Periodsubsidiaries, including USWS Holdings and in such event, such amounts will be included with the funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial public offering price per Unit in the Public Offering. Placing funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against the Company. Although the Company seeks to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities it engages execute agreements with the Company waiving any claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that such persons will execute such agreements.its subsidiaries.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Notwithstanding the foregoing redemption rights, if the Company seeks stockholder approval of its Initial Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions in connection with its Initial Business Combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a public stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to an aggregate of 20% or more of the shares sold in the Public Offering. However, there is no restriction on the Company’s stockholders’ ability to vote all of their shares for or against an Initial Business Combination.

8

In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company after an Initial Business Combination, the Company’s stockholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The Company’s stockholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock, except that the Company will provide its stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination, subject to the limitations described herein.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars in conformity withwere prepared using generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuantthe instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the accountingannual financial statements included in the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”).

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosure rulesaccompanying notes present the consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and regulationsequity of the SecuritiesCompany as of June 30, 2019 and Exchange Commission (“SEC”),December 31, 2018, and reflectfor the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of September 30, 2017 andresults for the interim period. The results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain informationthree and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Interim resultssix months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the entire fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.


Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. We regularly evaluate estimates and judgments based on historical experience and other relevant facts and circumstances. Significant estimates included in these financial statements primarily relate to allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for inventory obsolescence, estimated useful lives and valuation of property and equipment and intangibles, impairment assessments of goodwill and other intangibles, Level 2 inputs used in fair value estimation of term loans, accounting for business combination, and the assumptions used in our Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo option pricing models associated with the valuation of share-based compensation and certain equity instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents that are restricted as to withdrawal or use under the terms of certain contractual agreements, or are reserved for a full year.specific purpose that is not readily available for immediate or general use are recorded in restricted cash in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The restricted cash in our condensed consolidated balance sheet represents cash transferred into a trust account to support our workers’ compensation obligations and cash held for use in capital expenditures related to approved fleet expansion amounting to $0.5 million and $16.5 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2019, and $0.5 million and nil, respectively, as of December 31, 2018.

Inventory

Inventory consists of proppant, chemicals, and other consumable materials and supplies used in our high-pressure hydraulic fracturing operations. Inventories are stated at the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the final prospectus filedlower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined principally on a first-in-first-out cost basis. All inventories are purchased for use by the Company in the delivery of its services with no inventory being sold separately to outside parties. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed regularly and write-downs for obsolete inventory are recorded based on our forecast of the SEC dated March 9, 2017inventory item demand in the near future. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had inventory reserves of $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for obsolete and slow-moving inventory.

On certain contracts with our proppant vendors, we take ownership of proppant as it leaves the auditedsand mines. These in transit inventories are recognized as part of Inventory in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, in transit inventories were nil and $0.3 million, respectively.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurement, as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a three-level hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1–inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2–inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3–inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability.

The following is a summary of the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial instruments as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. These carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of the instruments or because the carrying value is equal to the fair value of those instruments on the balance sheet includeddates.

Senior Secured Term Loan and Second Lien Term Loan. The carrying value of the Senior Secured Term Loan and Second Lien Term Loan approximates fair value as its terms are consistent with and comparable to current market rates as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Equipment financing. The carrying value of the equipment financing approximates fair value as its terms are consistent with and comparable to current market rates as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard, ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The details of the significant changes to accounting policies resulting from the adoption of the new standard are set out below. The Company adopted the standard using a modified retrospective method, allowing the Company to apply the cumulative effect of the standard in the Form 8-K filed bymost current period presented as an adjustment to retained earnings. As a result of the change in accounting principle, the Company withrecorded a $0.1 million increase in retained earnings due to the SECtiming of expense recognition related to certain sales commissions considered to be costs of acquiring customer contracts.

Under the new standard, revenue recognition is based on March 21, 2017.the customer’s ability to benefit from the services rendered in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those services. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore excluded from revenues in the Company’s financial statements.

 

Emerging Growth CompanyThe Company’s revenues consist of providing hydraulic fracturing services for either a pre-determined term or number of stages/wells to exploration and production (E&P) companies operating in the onshore oil and natural gas basins of the United States. Revenues are earned as services are rendered, which is generally on a per stage or fixed monthly rate basis. Customers are invoiced according to contract terms either upon the completion of a stage, the completion of a well or monthly with payment due typically 30 days from invoice date.

 

Hydraulic fracturing is a well-stimulation technique intended to optimize hydrocarbon flow paths during the completion phase of wellbores. The process involves the injection of water, sand and chemicals under high pressure into shale formations. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time, typically measured in number of stages completed or the number of pumping days a fleet is available to pump for a customer in a month. A field ticket is created for each stage completed that records all services performed, including any chemicals and proppant consumed in completing the stage. The field ticket is signed by a customer representative and evidences the amounts to which the Company has a right to invoice and thus to recognize as revenue. All revenue is recognized when a contract with a customer exists, collectability of amounts subject to invoice is probable, the performance obligations under the contract have been satisfied over time, and the amount to which the Company has the right to invoice has been determined. Contract fulfillment costs, such as mobilization costs and shipping and handling costs, are expensed as incurred and are recorded in cost of services in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. A portion of the Company’s contracts contain variable consideration; however, this variable consideration is typically unknown at the time of contract inception, and is not


known until the job is complete, at which time the variability is resolved. Examples of variable consideration include the amount of consumables (such as chemicals and proppants) that will be used to complete a job.

The Company has elected to use the “as invoiced” practical expedient to recognize revenue based upon the amount it has a right to invoice upon the completion of each performance obligation per the terms of the contract. The practical expedient permits an entity to recognize revenue in the amount to which it has a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date. The Company believes that this is an accurate reflection of the value transferred to the customer as each incremental obligation is performed.

The Company has elected to expense sales commissions paid upon the successful signing of a new customer contract as incurred if the related contract will be fully satisfied within one year. For contracts that will not be fully satisfied within one year, these incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer will be recognized as a contract asset and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at their outstanding balances adjusted for an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by analyzing the payment history and credit worthiness of each debtor. Receivable balances are charged off when they are considered uncollectible by management. Recoveries of receivables previously charged off are recorded as income when received. The Company held a reserve for doubtful accounts amounting to $0.5 million and $0.2 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Major Customer and Concentration of Credit Risk

The concentration of our customers in the oil and natural gas industry may impact our overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, in that customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic and industry conditions. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and do not generally require collateral in support of our trade receivables.

Fair Value of Preferred Stock

The fair value of preferred stock is estimated by calculating the present value of its one-year redemption cost to the Company and then discounted for lack of marketability.

Embedded Conversion Features

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within a convertible instrument under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options for consideration of any beneficial feature.

The Company records a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) when the convertible instrument is issued with conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates that are below market value when issued. The BCF for convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital. The intrinsic value is generally calculated at the commitment date as the difference between the conversion price and the fair value of the common stock or other securities into which the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible. If certain other securities are issued with the convertible security, the proceeds are allocated among the different components. The portion of the proceeds allocated to the convertible security is divided by the contractual number of the conversion shares to determine the effective conversion price, which is used to measure the BCF. The effective conversion price is used to compute the intrinsic value. The value of the BCF is limited to the basis that is initially allocated to the convertible security.

The BCF for the convertible instrument is recorded as a reduction, or discount, to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the fair value of the conversion feature. The discount is then amortized as deemed dividends over the period from the date of the convertible instrument’s issuance to the earliest redemption date, provided that the convertible instrument is not currently redeemable but probable of becoming redeemable in the future.

Warrants Issued with Convertible Instruments

The Company calculates the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible instruments using the Black-Scholes valuation method. The Company allocates the value of the proceeds received from a convertible instrument transaction between the conversion feature and any other detachable instruments (such as warrants) on a relative fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded as discount or premium.

Income Taxes

Prior to the completion of the Transaction, the Company was a limited liability company and was treated as a partnership for federal and certain state income tax purposes. As such, the results of operations were allocated to the members for inclusion in their income tax returns and therefore no provision or benefit for federal or certain state income taxes was included in our financial statements prior to the completion of the Transaction.


The Company under ASC 740 uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of (i) temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities and (ii) operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are based on enacted tax rates applicable to the future period when those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period the rate change is enacted. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at June 30, 2019. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

NOTE 3 – ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholdershareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, sectionSection 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which is intended to reduce the diversity in practice around how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. The new guidance will be effective for emerging growth companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019; however early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this new guidance as of April 1, 2019 which resulted in the presentation of the cash portion of the loss on extinguishment of debt amounting to $6.6 million as cash used in financing activities rather than operating activities in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Net Income Per Common Share

Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income applicableIn May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and subsequent amendments thereto. This pronouncement requires entities to common stockholdersrecognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09. Since the original issuance of ASU 2014-09, the FASB has issued several amendments and updates to this guidance, and additional amendments and updates are currently being considered by the weighted average numberFASB. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2019. The adoption of common shares outstanding duringthis ASU did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.


In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-1, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The new guidance will be effective for emerging growth companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2019 and did not have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. ASU No. 2015-17 eliminated the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and non-current in a classified balance sheet. Instead, companies are required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this new guidance as of December 31, 2018, the first period plus, to the extent dilutive, the incremental number of shares of common stock to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury stock method. At September 30, 2017,in which the Company had deferred taxes. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2017-13, ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11, ASU 2018-20 and ASU 2019-01 (collectively, Topic 842). Topic 842 requires companies to generally recognize on the balance sheet operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets. We expect to adopt Topic ASC 842 using the effective date of January 1, 2020 as the date of our initial application of the standard. Consequently, financial information for the comparative periods will not be updated. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of Topic 842 on our consolidated financial statements. We currently expect that most of our operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon our adoption of Topic 842, which will increase our total assets and total liabilities that we report relative to such amounts prior to adoption. The Company chose to use the modified retrospective with applied transition method upon adoption of the standard. Under this adoption method, all leases that are in effect and in existence as of, and subsequent to transition date will be applied as of the transition date, with a cumulative impact to retained earnings in that period. Prior period financial statements would be stated under the old guidance ASC 840 with no change to prior periods or disclosures associated with prior period.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates the second step of the previous two-step quantitative test of goodwill impairment. Under the new guidance, the quantitative test consists of a single step in which the carrying amount of the reporting unit is compared to its fair value. An impairment charge would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the amount of the impairment would be limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The guidance does not affect the existing option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine whether the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The new guidance will be effective for emerging growth companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Senior Secured Term Loan

On May 7, 2019, USWS LLC (the “Borrower”), a subsidiary of the Company, and all of the other subsidiaries of the Company entered into a $250.0 million Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Senior Secured Term Loan”). The Company is required to make quarterly principal payments of 2.0% per annum of the initial principal balance, commencing on January 15, 2020, with final payment due at maturity on May 7, 2024.

The Senior Secured Term Loan will bear interest at a variable rate per annum equal to the applicable LIBOR rate, subject to a 2.0% floor, plus 8.25%.

The Senior Secured Term Loan is not subject to financial covenants but is subject to certain non-financial covenants, including but not limited to reporting, insurance, notice and collateral maintenance covenants as well as limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, permitted investments, liens on assets, dispositions of assets, paying dividends, transactions with affiliates, mergers and consolidations.


The Senior Secured Term Loan requires mandatory prepayments upon certain dispositions of property or issuance of other indebtedness, as defined, and quarterly a percentage of excess cash flow, if any, equal to 25% to 100% (depending on total debt outstanding) commencing in September 2019. Certain mandatory prepayments (excluding excess cash flows sweep) and optional prepayments are subject to a yield maintenance fee for the first two years and prepayment premium of 2% in year three and 1% in year four. Upon the final payment and termination of the Senior Secured Term Loan, the Borrower is subject to an exit fee equal to 2.0% of the principal amount of loans then outstanding and the aggregate optional prepayment of principal amounts repaid during the 120 days that occurred prior to such final payment.

Proceeds from the Senior Secured Term Loan were used to repay the outstanding balances of the First Lien Credit Facility, Second Lien Term Loan, and certain equipment financings, fund a cash account reserved solely for future expansion capital expenditures, and pay associated fees and expenses. The First Lien Credit Facility and Second Lien Term Loan were both terminated and accounted for as debt extinguishments which resulted in a $6.5 million loss on early repayment of debt, and write off of $1.7 million of unamortized debt issue costs related to the First Lien Credit Facility and write off of $4.3 million of unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs related to the Second Lien Term Loan, all of which were presented as part of loss on extinguishment of debt in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.  

The Senior Secured Term Loan was issued at a $5.0 million discount and the Company incurred $5.8 million in debt issuance costs with both amounts recorded as a direct deduction to the face amount of the Senior Secured Term Loan. The debt issuance costs and debt discount related to the Senior Secured Term Loan are being amortized to interest expense based on the effective interest rate method over the term of the Senior Secured Term Loan.

As of June 30, 2019, the outstanding principal balance of the Senior Secured Term Loan was $250.0 million, of which $3.8 million was due within one year from the balance sheet date.

ABL Credit Facility

On May 7, 2019, the Company entered into a $75.0 million ABL Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Facility”) which matures on February 6, 2024. The ABL Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base which is calculated based on a formula referencing the Loan Parties’ eligible accounts receivables. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR, plus an applicable LIBOR rate margin of 1.5% to 2.0% or base rate margin of 0.5% to 1.0% as defined in the ABL Credit Facility. The unused portion of the ABL Credit Facility is subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.250% to 0.375%.

All borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties and certifications regarding sales of certain inventory, and to a borrowing base (described above). In addition, the ABL Credit Facility includes a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 but only when a financial covenant trigger period is in effect as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally by the Loan Parties, other than future unrestricted subsidiaries.

In connection with the ABL Credit Facility, the Company incurred $1.2 million in debt issuance costs, recorded as deferred financing costs, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Debt issuance costs related to the ABL Credit Facility are being amortized to interest expense ratably over the term of the ABL Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2019, the borrowing base was $75.0 million and the outstanding revolver loan balance was $40.0 million, classified as long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock. Thesepreferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. On May 23, 2019, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors (collectively, the “Purchasers”) to issue and sell in a private placement 55,000 shares were excluded fromof newly created series of convertible redeemable preferred stock of the calculationCompany (“Series A preferred stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of diluted income (loss)$1,000 per common share, because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. An aggregatefor total gross proceeds of 31,132,810$55.0 million.

At the initial closing on May 24, 2019 (“Closing Date”), the Purchasers purchased all of the Series A preferred stock and 2,933,333 initial warrants exercisable for shares of Class A common stock. Subject to there being Series A preferred stock outstanding, the Company will issue an additional 4,399,992 warrants to the Purchasers in quarterly installments of 488,888 warrants beginning nine months after the Closing Date. Crestview III USWS, L.P. and Crestview III USWS TE, LLC, two of the Purchasers, are part of an affiliate group which, prior to the Closing Date, held an aggregate 29.80% ownership interest in the Company and is entitled to designate for nomination by the Company for election two directors to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors.

Holders of shares of Series A preferred stock are entitled to receive cumulative dividends, compounding and accruing quarterly in arrears, from the Closing Date until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, at an annual rate of 12.0%, and thereafter, 16% of the stated value of $ 1,000 per share, subject to possible redemptionincrease in connection with the payment of dividends in kind.

Due to a loss during the period ended September 30, 2016, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share. At September 30, 2016, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then share in the earnings of the Company under the treasury stock method.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company had not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Financial Instruments

The fairstated value of the Company’s assetsoutstanding Series A preferred stock by the amount per share of the dividend on February 24, May 24, August 24, and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets.

UseNovember 24 of Estimateseach year, commencing on August 24, 2019.

 

The preparation ofSeries A preferred stock is redeemable by the balance sheets in conformity with GAAP requiresCompany at any time for cash equal to the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities atstated value per share on the date of redemption. Except for a redemption occurring prior to the financial statementsnine-month anniversary of the Closing Date, in which case the redemption price shall be $1,092.73 per share. If the Company notifies the holders that it has elected to redeem the Series A preferred stock, the holder may instead elect to convert such shares into Class A common stock. If the Company funds the redemption with proceeds of an equity offering within one year of the Closing Date, then any converting shares will convert at a ratio that is based on the higher of the price to the public in the offering or the ordinary conversion price of $6.67. Otherwise, such converting shares will convert by reference to the ordinary conversion price. In any event, the Series A preferred stock converting in response to a redemption notice will net settle for a combination of cash and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.Class A common stock.

 

Offering Costs

The Company complies withFollowing the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs were $16,824,469 (including an underwriting fee of $6,000,000 and deferred underwriting commissions of $10,250,000), consisting principally of costs incurred in connection with formation and preparation for the Public Offering. These offering costs were charged to additional paid in capital upon closingfirst anniversary of the Public Offering on March 15, 2017.

As discussed in Note 1,preferred stock may convert all or any portion of the 32,500,000its shares of Series A preferred stock into Class A common stock soldbased on the then-applicable liquidation preference at a conversion price of $6.67, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, at any time, but not more than once per quarter, so long as partsany conversion is for at least $1.0 million.


The Company has the option to force a conversion of any then outstanding Series A preferred stock following the third anniversary of the Units inClosing Date, and contingent upon (i) the Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of Class A common stock under the Company’s Liquidation or Tender Offer/Stockholder Approval provisions. In accordance with FASB ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of FASB ASC 480. Although the Company has not specified a maximum redemption threshold, its amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that in no event will the Company redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.

10

The Company recognizes changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable Class A common stock shall be affected by charges against additional paid in capital. Accordingly, at September 30, 2017, 31,132,810 of the 32,500,000 shares of Class A common stock included in the Units were classified outside of permanent equity at its redemption value. There were no shares of Class A common stock outstanding at December 31, 2016.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2017. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at September 30, 2017. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

Note 3 — Public Offering

Pursuant to the Public Offering, the Company sold 32,500,000 Units, including a partial exercise of the Underwriter’s over-allotment option of 2,500,000 Units. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $325,000,000. As a result of the Underwriter’s partial exercise of the over-allotment option, the Sponsor forfeited 500,000 shares of Class F common stock (see Note 4).

Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and one warrant (“Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $5.75 per half share ($11.50 per whole share). Each Warrant will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination or 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering and will expire five years after the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants in whole and not in part at a price of $0.01 per Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, if and only if the last sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $24.00 per sharebeing greater than 130% of the Conversion Price for any 20 trading days within a 30-tradingduring any 30-day consecutive trading day period, ending on(ii) the thirdaverage daily trading day prior to the date on which the Company sent the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders.

Note 4 — Related Party Transactions

Private Placement Warrants

Simultaneously with the Public Offering, the Sponsor and the Underwriter purchased an aggregate of 15,500,000 Private Placement Warrants (14,500,000 Private Placement Warrants by the Sponsor and 1,000,000 Private Placement Warrants by the Underwriter) at a price of $0.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $7,750,000. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable for one-half of one sharevolume of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $5.75 per half share ($11.50 per whole share). A portionexceeding 250,000 for 20 trading days and (iii) the Company having an effective registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) covering resales of the purchase price of the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the Public Offering held in the Trust Account pending completion of the Initial Business Combination such that at the closing of the Public Offering $325 million was held in the Trust Account. If the Initial Business Combination is not completed within the Combination Period, then the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor and the Underwriter will expire worthless.

The Private Placement Warrants are not transferrable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Initial Business Combination and the Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable so long as they are held by the Sponsor, the Underwriter or their permitted transferees. The Private Placement Warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor, the Underwriter or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by holders on the same basis as the Warrants underlying the Units issued in the Public Offering. In addition, for as long as the Private Placement Warrants are held by the Sponsor or the Underwriter or its designees or affiliates, they may not be exercised after March 9, 2022. Otherwise, the Private Placement Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to the Warrants underlying the Units issued in the Public Offering including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period.

Founder Shares

On March 31, 2016, the Sponsor purchased 7,187,500 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class F common stock, $0.0001 par value, for $25,000 or $0.004 per share. In May 2016, the Company effectuated a 1.2-for-1 stock split in the form of a dividend, resulting in an aggregate of 8,625,000 Founder Shares outstanding, including an aggregate of up to 1,125,000 shares subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor to the extent that the Underwriter’s over-allotment was not exercised in full, so that the Sponsor would collectively own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Public Offering. As a result of the Underwriter’s election toexercise its over-allotment option to purchase 2,500,000 Units on March 15, 2017 and waiver of the remainder of its over-allotment option, 625,000 Founder Shares were no longer subject to forfeiture and 500,000 Founder Shares were forfeited.As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, “Founder Shares” shall be deemed to include the shares of Class A common stock issuableto be received upon such conversion.

In connection with the Series A preferred stock offering, there were 55,000 shares of Series A preferred stock and 2,933,333 warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2019. The Series A preferred stock was recorded as Mezzanine Equity, net of issuance cost, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets because it has redemption features upon certain triggering events that are outside the Company’s control, such as change in control.

The Company has determined that the warrants should be accounted as a component of stockholders’ equity. On the Closing Date, the Company estimated the fair value of the warrants at $12.8 million using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following primary assumptions: contractual term of 6.5 years, volatility rate of 53.0%, risk-free interest rate of 2.2% and expected dividend rate of 0%. Based on the warrant’s relative fair value to the fair value of the Series A preferred stock, approximately $10.8 million of the $12.8 million of aggregate value was allocated to the warrants, creating a corresponding preferred stock discount in the same amount.

Due to the reduction of allocated proceeds to Series A preferred stock, the effective conversion thereof. price was approximately $5.40 per share creating a beneficial conversion feature of $20.1 million which further reduced the carrying value of the Series A preferred stock. Since the Holders’ conversion option of the Series A preferred stock could only be exercisable after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the discount resulting from the beneficial conversion feature will be accreted over one year as deemed preferred dividends using the effective yield method, resulting in a corresponding increase in the carrying value of the Series A preferred stock over the same time period.

The Founder Series A preferred stock had similar characteristics of an “Increasing Rate Security” as described by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5Q, Increasing Rate Preferred Stock. As a result, the discount on Series A preferred stock is considered an unstated dividend cost that is amortized over the period preceding commencement of the perpetual dividend using the effective interest method, by charging imputed dividend cost against retained earnings, or additional paid in capital in the absence of retained earnings, and increasing the carrying amount of the Series A preferred stock by a corresponding amount. The discount is therefore being amortized over two years using the effective yield method. The amortization in each period is the amount which, together with the stated dividend in the period, results in a constant rate of effective cost with regard to the carrying amount of the Series A preferred stock.

The expected term of the options granted was based on the safe harbor rule of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 “Share-Based Payment” as the Company lacks historical exercise data to estimate the expected term of these options. The expected stock price volatility is calculated based on the Company’s peer group because the Company does not have sufficient historical data and will continue to use peer group volatility information until historical volatility of the Company is available to measure expected volatility for future grants. The exercise price for stock options granted equals the closing market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. These options are time-based and are not based upon attainment of performance goals. Stock based compensation costs totaling $4.2 million associated with this award will be recognized over the four-year vesting period.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, stock-based compensation expense of $2.3 million related to restricted and unrestricted stock grants and stock option grants was recorded, of which $0.8 million is presented as part of cost of services, and $1.5 million presented as part of selling, general, and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, stock-based compensation expense of $3.4 million related to restricted and unrestricted stock grants and stock option grants was recorded, of which $1.1 million is presented as part of cost of services, and $2.3 million presented as part of selling, general, and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

As of June 30, 2019, total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based compensation grants under the LTIP was $25.2 million. We expect to recognize these costs over a weighted average period of 3.8 years.

NOTE 14 – EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

In 2013, the Company established the U.S. Well Services 401(k) Plan. The Company matches 100% of employee contributions up to 6% of the employee’s salary, subject to cliff vesting after two years of service. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, matching contributions were $1.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, matching contributions were $2.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The matching contributions were included in cost of services and selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES

Prior to the completion of the Transaction, the Company was a limited liability company and was taxed as a partnership for federal and certain state income tax purposes. As such, the results of operations were allocated to the members for inclusion in their income tax returns and therefore no provision or benefit for federal or certain state income taxes were included in our financial statements prior to the completion of the Transaction.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and local jurisdictions and is subject to examination by the taxing authorities.

The Company’s effective tax rate on continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was (0.78)%. The difference between the effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate is due to state taxes, flow-through income not subject to tax, and a valuation allowance.

We follow guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This guidance clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold an income tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the consolidated financial statements and applies to all income tax positions. Each income tax position is assessed using a two-step process. A determination is first made as to whether it is more likely than not that the income tax position will be sustained, based upon technical merits, upon examination by the taxing authorities. If the income tax position is expected to meet the more likely than not criteria, the benefit recorded in the consolidated financial statements equals the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon its ultimate settlement.

We have considered our exposure under the standard at both the federal and state tax levels. We did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018. We record income tax-related interest and penalties, if any, as a component of income tax expense. We did not incur any material interest or penalties on income taxes.

After consideration of all of the information available, management determined that a valuation allowance was appropriate, as it is not more likely than not that the Company will not utilize its net deferred tax assets.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into legislation. As part of the legislation, the U.S. corporate income tax rate was reduced to 21%. Since the Company was previously a flow-through entity, no deferred tax expense was recorded as a result of the reduced tax rate.


NOTE 16 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Sand Purchase Agreements

The Company entered into agreements for the supply of proppant for use in its hydraulic fracturing operations. Under the terms of these agreements, the Company is subject to minimum purchase quantities on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis at fixed prices or may be adjusted in certain circumstances includingpay penalties in the event of any shortfall. As of June 30, 2019, we estimated and accrued for a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However,shortfall in quantities. This accrual is presented as part of accrued liabilities on the warrants will notcondensed consolidated balance sheets.

The minimum commitments represent the aggregate amounts that we would be adjustedobligated to pay in the event that we procured no additional proppant under the contracts subsequent to June 30, 2019.

During the first quarter of 2019, we were involved in a contract dispute with a proppant vendor resulting in the cancellation of the contract. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2019, we have excluded $47.1 million and $48.0 million of contracted and minimum commitments, respectively, related to this contract. The litigation involving the contract in dispute is its early stages, as such no prediction can be made as to the outcome.

Operating Lease Agreements

The Company has various operating leases for issuancefacilities with terms ranging from 24 to 76 months.

Rent expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of common stock atwhich $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, are recorded as part of cost of services and $0.1 million, $0.1 million, respectively, are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Rent expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $1.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of which $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, are recorded as part of cost of services and $0.2 million, $0.1 million, respectively, are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Self-insurance

Beginning June 2014, the Company be requiredestablished a self-insured plan for employees’ healthcare benefits except for losses in excess of varying threshold amounts. The Company charges to net cash settleexpense all actual claims made during each reporting period, as well as an estimate of claims incurred, but not yet reported.

We believe that the liabilities we have recorded are appropriate based on the known facts and circumstances and do not expect further losses materially in excess of the amounts already accrued for existing claims.

NOTE 17 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company purchased $2.8 million and $4.7 million, respectively, in chemicals used for our hydraulic fracturing operations from Rockwater Energy Solutions (“Rockwater”), a subsidiary of Select Energy Services (“Select Energy”).

Overview

We provide high-pressure, hydraulic fracturing services in unconventional oil and natural gas basins. Both our conventional and Clean Fleets hydraulic fracturing fleets are among the most reliable and highest performing fleets in the industry, with the capability to meet the most demanding pressure and pump rate requirements in the industry. We operate in many of the active shale and unconventional oil and natural gas basins of the United States and our clients benefit from the performance and reliability of our equipment and personnel. Specifically, all of our fleets operate on a 24-hour basis and have the ability to withstand the high utilization rates that result in more efficient operations. Our senior management team has extensive industry experience providing pressure pumping services to exploration and production companies across North America.

We are a blank check company incorporatedwere originally formed in March 2016 as a Delaware corporation on March 10, 2016 and formedspecial purpose acquisition company under the name Matlin & Partners Acquisition Corporation for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination withinvolving one or more businesses. We intendOn November 9, 2018, we completed the Transaction with USWS Holdings. As part of the Transaction, we changed our name from Matlin & Partners Acquisition Corporation to effectuate our Initial Business Combination using cash fromU.S. Well Services, Inc. Following the proceedscompletion of the Transaction, substantially all of our Public Offeringassets and operations are held and conducted by USWS Holdings and its subsidiaries, including U.S. Well Services, LLC, and our only assets are equity interests in USWS Holdings. We own a majority of the economic and voting interests of USWS Holdings and are the sole manager of USWS Holdings.


How the Company Generates Revenue

We generate revenue by providing hydraulic fracturing services to our customers. We own and operate a fleet of hydraulic fracturing units to perform these services. We have written contractual arrangements with our customers. Under these contracts, we charge our customers base monthly rates, adjusted for activity and provision of materials such as proppant and chemicals or we charge a per stage amount based on the nature of the stage including well pressure, sand and chemical volumes and transportation.

Our Costs of Conducting Business

The principal costs involved in conducting our hydraulic fracturing services are materials, transportation, labor and maintenance costs. A large portion of our costs are variable, based on the number and requirements of hydraulic fracturing jobs. We manage our fixed costs, other than depreciation and amortization, based on factors including industry conditions and the Private Placementexpected demand for our services.

Materials include the cost of warrantssand delivered to the basin of operations, chemicals, and other consumables used in our operations. These costs vary based on the quantity and quality of sand and chemicals utilized when providing hydraulic fracturing services. Transportation represents the costs to transport materials and equipment from receipt points to customer locations. Labor costs include payroll and benefits related to our field crews and other employees. A majority of our employees are paid on an hourly basis. Maintenance costs include preventative and other repair costs that occurred simultaneously withdo not require the consummationreplacement of the Public Offering,major components of our capital stock, debt or a combination of cash, stockhydraulic fracturing fleets. Maintenance and debt.

repair costs are expensed as incurred.

The issuancefollowing table presents our cost of additional shares of our stock services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 (in a business combination:

may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in the Public Offering, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the Class F common stock resulted in the issuance of Class A shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class F common stock;

may subordinate the rights of holders of our common stock if preferred stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;

could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our common stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;
may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us; and

may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our units, common stock and/or warrants.

Similarly, if we issue debt securities, it could result in:

default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an Initial Business Combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and

limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, and execution of our strategy; and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.

As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, at September 30, 2017, we had $853,555 in cash outside of the Trust Account. We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our Initial Business Combination will be successful.

Revenues. Revenues decreased by $41.2 million, or 21.4%, to $151.4 million for the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, we had a net income2019 from $192.6 in the prior corresponding period. The decrease was primarily attributable to more customers self-sourcing lower-margin consumables such as sand, chemicals, and sand transportation, which was partially offset by an increase in higher-margin service and equipment revenue due to an increase in our active fleet count.

Cost of $285,327services, excluding depreciation and $382,570, respectively. Our entire activity through September 30, 2017, consistedamortization. Cost of formationservices, excluding depreciation and preparationamortization, decreased by $44.0 million, or 29.1%, to $107.4 million for the Public Offeringthree months ended June 30, 2019 from $151.4 million in the prior corresponding period. The decrease was primarily attributable to revenue mix as discussed above. Cost of services, excluding depreciation and sinceamortization, as a percentage of revenues decreased from 78.6% to 70.9% over this period.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased by $15.4 million, or 61.8%, to $40.3 million for the Public Offering,three months ended June 30, 2019 from $24.9 million in the searchprior corresponding period. The increase was primarily due to depreciation related to the four hydraulic fracturing fleets added after the second quarter of 2018.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $2.3 million, or 43.4%, to $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $5.3 million in the prior corresponding period. Of this amount, $0.4 million was mainly due to head count and salary increases associated with the Company becoming a publicly traded company, and $1.1 million was due to share based compensation expense associated with awards granted in March 2019. In addition, $0.2 million was mainly due to public company reporting expenses, and $0.3 million was due to higher travel and lodging costs to support our growth and increased activity. In June 2019, we provided for a target business withbad debts reserve amounting to $0.3 million related to a specific customer.

Loss on disposal of assets. Loss on disposal of assets decreased by $1.2 million, or 23.1%, to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $5.2 million in the prior corresponding period. The amount of loss on disposal of assets fluctuate period over period due to differences in operating conditions of our hydraulic fracturing equipment such as wellbore pressure and rate of barrels pumped per minute, that impact the timing of disposals of our hydraulic fracturing pump components and amount of gain or loss recognized.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense increased by $0.9 million, or 13.0%, to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $6.9 million in the prior corresponding period. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in our average debt balance resulting from the new senior secured term loan, which is described further under “Debt Agreements.”

Revenues. Revenues decreased by $73.0 million, or 20.0%, to $291.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $364.2 in the prior corresponding period. The decrease was primarily attributable to more customers self-sourcing lower-margin consumables such as sand, chemicals, and sand transportation, which was partially offset by an Initial Business Combination,increase in higher-margin service and equipment revenue due to an increase in our active fleet count.

Cost of services, excluding depreciation and amortization. Cost of services, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased by $72.8 million, or 25.1%, to $217.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $289.8 million in the prior corresponding period. The decrease was primarily attributable to revenue mix as such, we had no operationsdiscussed above. Cost of services, excluding depreciation and no significant operating expenses. Subsequentamortization, as a percentage of revenues decreased from 79.6% to 74.5% over this period.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased by $27.4 million, or 53.9%, to $78.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $50.8 million in the prior corresponding period. The increase was primarily due to depreciation related to the closingfour hydraulic fracturing fleets added after the second quarter of 2018.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $6.7 million, or 69.8%, to $16.3 million for the Public Offering on March 15, 2017, our normal operating costs included costssix months ended June 30, 2019 from $9.6 million in the prior corresponding period. Of this amount, $1.3 million was mainly due to head count and salary increases associated with our search forthe Company becoming a target business, costspublicly traded company, and $1.3 million was due to share based compensation expense associated with awards granted in March 2019. In addition, $3.6 million was mainly due to higher professional and legal fees associated with the Company becoming a publicly traded company, and $0.5 million was mainly due to higher travel and lodging to support our governancegrowth and public reporting,increased activity.

Loss on disposal of assets. Loss on disposal of assets increased by $2.8 million, or 34.6%, to $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $8.1 million in the prior corresponding period. The amount of loss on disposal of assets fluctuate period over period due to differences in operating conditions of our hydraulic fracturing equipment such as wellbore pressure and state franchise taxes.rate of barrels pumped per minute, that impact the timing of disposals of our hydraulic fracturing pump components and amount of gain or loss recognized.

Interest Expense, net. Interest expense decreased by $1.4 million, or 9.8%, to $12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from $14.3 million in the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily attributable to decrease in average debt balance in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the prior corresponding period resulting from paying off our previous term loan in connection with the Transaction, which was partially offset by an increase in our average debt balance in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the prior corresponding period resulting from the new senior secured term loan obtained in May 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Until the consummation of the Public Offering, our onlyOur primary sources of liquidity wereand capital resources are cash on the balance sheet, cash flow generated from operating activities, borrowings under bank credit agreements and availability under our revolving credit facility.

We believe that our current cash position, cash generated from operations, and borrowing capacity from the new ABL Facility (as defined below) will be sufficient to satisfy the anticipated cash requirements associated with our existing operations.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities primarily represents the results of operations exclusive of non-cash expenses, including depreciation, amortization, interest, impairment losses, loss on extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on disposal of assets, and share-based compensation, and the impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $14.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $27.7 million from the prior corresponding period. This decrease was primarily attributable to an initialincrease in working capital requirements driven by new fleet deployments during the first half of 2019 and diversification of our customer base with the addition of several new customers. We anticipate net cash provided by operating activities to increase moving forward from the deployment of the three new fleets in January 2019, April 2019, and June 2019, respectively, and acceleration of our cash collections.

Net Cash used in Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities primarily relates to the purchase of Founder Sharesproperty and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities was $144.9 million for $25,000the six months ended June 30, 2019, $50.6 million of which related to maintaining and supporting our existing hydraulic fracturing equipment, $81.1 million of which related to growth and $13.2 million of which related to fleet enhancements. The investment spend for the six months ended June 30, 2019 relates to the addition of three hydraulic fracturing fleets that we placed into service in January, April, and May of 2019, and deposit payments for an expansion fleet which we plan on deploying by early 2020, maintaining and supporting the hydraulic fracturing equipment, and fleet enhancements to our existing hydraulic fracturing equipment.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities primarily relates to proceeds from our preferred stock offering, revolving credit facility, long-term debt, and notes payable, offset by repayments of amounts under equipment financing arrangements, notes payable, revolver, long-term debt, and principal payments under the finance lease obligations. Net cash provided by financing activities was $152.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. During this period, we received proceeds of $54.5 million from our preferred stock offering, which was net of issue costs, $49.0 million from our revolving credit facility and $285.0 million from long-term debt. We also repaid $4.4 million of debt under notes payable, $63.2 million of debt under equipment financing arrangements, $8.4 million of principal under finance lease obligations, $6.6 million of fees related to debt extinguishment, and $13.5 million of deferred financing costs. We also repaid $65.0 million and $75.0 million of debt under our first lien credit facility and second lien term loan, respectively, and terminated both facilities.

Capital Expenditures. Our business requires continual investments to upgrade or enhance existing property and equipment and to ensure compliance with safety and environmental regulations. Capital expenditures primarily relate to maintenance capital expenditures, growth capital expenditures and fleet enhancement capital expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures include expenditures needed to maintain and to support our current operations. Growth capital expenditures include expenditures to generate incremental distributable cash flow. Fleet enhancement capital expenditures include expenditures on new equipment related to existing fleets that increase the productivity of the fleet. Capital expenditures for growth and fleet enhancement initiatives are discretionary.

We classify maintenance capital expenditures as expenditures required to maintain or supplement existing hydraulic fracturing fleets. We budget maintenance capital expenditures based on historical run rates and current maintenance schedules. Growth capital expenditures relate to adding additional hydraulic fracturing fleets and are based on quotes obtained from equipment manufacturers and our estimate for the timing of placing orders, disbursing funds and receiving the equipment. Fleet enhancement capital expenditures relate to technology enhancements to existing fleets that increase their productivity and are based on quotes obtained from equipment manufacturers and our estimate for the timing of placing orders, disbursing funds and receiving the equipment.  

We continuously evaluate our capital expenditures and the amount we ultimately spend will depend on a number of factors, including expected industry activity levels and company initiatives. We intend to fund the majority of our capital expenditures, contractual obligations and working capital needs with cash on hand, cash generated from operations, borrowing capacity under our ABL Facility and other financing sources.

Debt Agreements

Senior Secured Term Loan

We have a $250.0 million Senior Secured Term Loan that matures in May 2024.

Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock

On May 23, 2019, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors (collectively, the “Purchasers”) to issue and sell in a totalprivate placement 55,000 shares of $275,000newly created series of loans and advances by the Sponsor. The $275,000 loans and advances were non-interest bearing and were paid in full on March 15, 2017 in connection with closingconvertible redeemable preferred stock of the Public Offering.

On March 15, 2017, we consummated our Public Offering in which we sold 32,500,000 Units at aCompany (“Series A preferred stock”), for an aggregate purchase price of $10.00$1,000 per Unit (including the partial exercise of the Underwriter’s overallotment option) generatingshare, for total gross proceeds of $325,000,000 before underwriting fees$55.0 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

17

 As of September 30, 2017, we have available to us $853,555 of cash on our balance sheet. We will use these funds to identifyThe Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements include the operating leases and evaluate target businesses, perform business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete a business combination. As of September 30, 2017, we also had $829,443 in interest income available from our investmentsunconditional commitments disclosed in the Trust Account“Contractual Obligations” section herein. For further description of such operating leases and unconditional commitments please see “Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies” in the Notes to pay for our income tax obligations.the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended Initial Business Combination, our Sponsor or an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. If we complete our Initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our Initial Business CombinationThe Company does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $0.50 per warrant at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. Other than as set forth above, the terms of such loans by our Sponsor, an affiliate of our Sponsor or our officers and directors, ifhave any have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. We do not expect to seek loans from parties other than our Sponsor, an affiliate of our Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors, if any, as we do not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to fundsinterest in our Trust Account.

We expect that we have sufficient resources subsequent to our Public Offering to fund our operations through March 15, 2019. We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds following this offering in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating an Initial Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon completion of our business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination, which may include a specified future issuance. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our business combination. If we are unable to complete our Initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Account. In addition, following our Initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.entities.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risks from interest rate and commodity price fluctuations. We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debtderivative financial instrument transactions to manage or commitmentsreduce market risk for speculative purposes. Our operations are conducted entirely in the United States; therefore, we have no significant exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. The consolidated financial statements are subject to concentrations of other entities, orcredit risk consisting primarily of accounts receivable.

We are subject to interest rate risk on our Senior Secured Term Loan entered into any non-financial assets.

Contractual Obligations

At September 30, 2017, we did not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities.

 The Underwriter was paid a cash underwriting fee of 2% of gross proceeds of the Public Offering, excluding any amounts raised pursuanton May 7, 2019. This agreement is subject to an annual interest rate that is indexed to the overallotment option, or $6,000,000. In addition, the Underwriter is entitledLondon Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”).

Our material costs primarily consist of proppants and (ii) 5%chemicals that are consumed while providing hydraulic fracturing services. Our fuel costs primarily consist of the gross proceeds of the Units solddiesel fuel used by our trucks and other equipment. Our material and fuel costs are variable and are impacted by changes in supply and demand. We generally pass along price increases to our customers; however, we may be unable to do so in the Public Offering pursuantfuture. We do not engage in commodity price hedging activities. However, we have commitments in place with certain vendors to the overallotment option. The deferred underwriting commissions will become payable to the Underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes an Initial Business Combination, subject to the termspurchase sand. Some of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual resultsthese agreements have minimum purchase requirements. We could materially differ from those estimates. The Company has identified the following as its critical accounting policies:

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not beingbe required to comply with the auditor attestation requirementspurchase sand and pay prices in excess of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 Further, section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standardmarket prices at the time private companies adoptof purchase. Refer to “Item 2. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the new or revised standard. Thiscontractual commitments and obligations table as of June 30, 2019.

The concentration of our customers in the oil and gas industry may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differencesimpact our overall exposure to credit risk in accounting standards used.

Net Income Per Common Share

Net income per common share is computedthat customers may be similarly affected by dividing net income applicablechanges in economic and industry conditions. We extend credit to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus, to the extent dilutive, the incremental number of shares of common stock to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury stock method. At September 30, 2017, the Company had outstanding warrants to purchase 24,000,000 shares of common stock. These shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted income (loss) per common share because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. An aggregate of 31,132,810 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption at September 30, 2017 have been excluded from the calculation of basic income (loss) per common share since such shares, if redeemed, only participate in their pro rata share of earnings from the Trust Account. Due to a loss during the period ended September 30, 2016, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share. At September 30, 2016, the Company did not have any dilutive securitiescustomers and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into common stock and then shareparties in the earningsnormal course of the Company under the treasury stock method.our business. We manage our credit exposure by performing credit evaluations of our customers and maintaining an allowance for doubtful accounts.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheets.

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A — “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs were $16,824,469 (including an underwriting fee of $6,000,000 and deferred underwriting commissions of $10,250,000), consisting principally of costs incurred in connection with formation and preparation for the Public Offering. These offering costs were charged to additional paid in capital upon closing of the Public Offering on March 15, 2017.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2017. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at September 30, 2017. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no material deferred tax assets.

Redeemable Class A Common Stock

All of the 32,500,000 shares of Class A common stock sold as parts of the Units in the Public Offering contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of Class A common stock under the Company’s Liquidation or Tender Offer/Stockholder Approval provisions. In accordance with FASB ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of FASB ASC 480. Although the Company has not specified a maximum redemption threshold, its amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that in no event will the Company redeem its public shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001.

The Company will recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of the security to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying amount of redeemable Class A common stock shall be affected by charges against additional paid in capital. Accordingly, at September 30, 2017, 31,132,810 of the 32,500,000 shares of Class A common stock included in the Units were classified outside of permanent equity at its redemption value. There were no shares of Class A common stock outstanding at December 31, 2016.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company’s management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Through September 30, 2017, our efforts have been limited to organizational activities, activities relating to our Public Offering and since the Public Offering, the search for a target business with which to consummate an Initial Business Combination. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues. We have not engaged in any hedging activities since our inception on March 10, 2016. We do not expect to engage in any hedging activities with respect to the market risk to which we are exposed.

The net proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account have been invested in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 180 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations.

PART II

PART II – PART II – OTHER INFORMATIONItem 1. Legal Proceedings.

As described in our quarterly report filed on the Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019, we were named as a defendant in a case filed on January 14, 2019 in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (Smart Sand, Inc. v. U.S. Well Services, LLC) seeking monetary damages arising out of the cancellation of a sand contract. The litigation is in the discovery stages. As such, no prediction can be made as to the outcome of the case at this time.

We are involved in various other pending or potential legal actions in the ordinary course of our business. Management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation. However, management believes that the most probable, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
