VICTORY OILFIELD TECH, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2019March 31, 2020

(Unaudited)

 

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Organization and nature of operations

 

Victory Oilfield Tech, Inc. (“Victory”), a Nevada corporation, is an oilfield technology products company offering patented oil and gas drilling products designed to improve well performance and extend the lifespan of the industry’s most sophisticated and expensive equipment. On July 31, 2018, Victory entered into an agreement to acquire Pro-Tech Hardbanding Services, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (“Pro-Tech”), which provides various hardbanding solutions to oilfield operators for drill pipe, weight pipe, tubing and drill collars. See Note 3, Pro-Tech Acquisition, for further information.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Victory and Pro-Tech for all periods presented and the accounts of Pro-Tech for periods occurring after the date of acquisition.presented. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts between Victory and Pro-Tech (together, the “Company”) have been eliminated.

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements is in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

 

In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited interim financial information contained herein includes all normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30,March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and 2018. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations, along with Accumulated deficit on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018, have been adjusted to reflect a $150,000 reduction to Selling, general and administrative expenses as reported on the Company’s Form 10-Q as filed for the nine months ended June 30, 2018. The adjustment was necessary because the amount deposited into escrow related to the acquisition of Pro-Tech was recorded to expense rather than to Current Assets. See Note 3, Pro-Tech Acquisition, for further details.2019.

 

The results reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year or any future periods.

 

Going Concern

 

Historically the Company has experienced, and the Company continues to experience, net losses, net losses from operations, negative cash flow from operating activities, and working capital deficits. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company anticipates that operating losses will continue in the near term as management continues efforts to leverage the Company’s intellectual property through the platform provided by the acquisition of Pro-Tech and, potentially, other acquisitions. The Company intends to meet near-term obligations through funding under the New VPEG Note (See Note 4,9, Related Party Transactions) as it seeks to generate positive cash flow from operations.

 

In addition to increasing cash flow from operations, we will be required to obtain other liquidity resources in order to support ongoing operations. We are addressing this need by developing additional capital sources, which we believe will enable us to execute our recapitalization and growth plan. This plan includes the expansion of Pro-Tech’s core hardbanding business through additional drilling services and the development of additional products and services including wholesale materials, RFID enclosures and mid-pipe coating solutions.

 

Based upon anticipated new sources of capital, and ongoing near-term funding provided through the New VPEG Note, we believe we will have enough capital to cover expenses through at least the next twelve months. We will continue to monitor liquidity carefully, and in the event we do not have enough capital to cover expenses, we will make the necessary and appropriate reductions in spending to remain cash flow positive. While management believes our plans help mitigate the substantial doubt that we are a going concern, there is no guarantee that our plans will be successful or if they are, will fully alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt that we are a going concern.


Capital Resources

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of $517,000$601,076 from VPEG through the New VPEG Note and advances of $175,000 from Ron Zamber, who is a director and shareholder, to provide funding for operations.Note. As of October 31, 2020the date of this report and for the foreseeable future the Company expects to cover operating shortfalls, if any, with funding through the New VPEG Note.Note while we enact our strategy to become a technology-focused oilfield services company and seek additional sources of capital. As of October 31, 2020,the date of this report, the remaining amount available for the Company for additional borrowings on the New VPEG Note was approximately $515,000.

In addition, during 2019, the Company extended the maturity date of the Kodak Note. See Note 8, Notes Payable and Note 13, Subsequent Events, for additional information regarding the Kodak Note.

During 2018, the Company converted several related party debt instruments to equity. See Note 4, Related Party Transactions.$420,024.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on a modified retrospective basis. The Company recognizes revenue as it satisfies contractual performance obligations by transferring promised goods or services to the customers. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those promised goods or services A good or service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that good or service.

 

The Company has one revenue stream, which relates to the provision of hardbanding services by its subsidiary Pro-Tech. All performance obligations of the Company’s contracts with customers are satisfied over the duration of the contract as customer-owned equipment is serviced and then made available for immediate use as completed during the service period. The Company has reviewed its contracts with Pro-Tech customers and determined that due to their short-term nature, with durations of several days of service at the customer’s location, it is only those contracts that occur near the end of a financial reporting period that will potentially require allocation to ensure revenue is recognized in the proper period. The Company has reviewed all such transactions and recorded revenue accordingly.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, all of the Company’s revenue was recognized from contracts with oilfield operators,operators. See Note 10 “Segment and the Company did not recognize impairment losses on any receivables or contract assets.Geographic Information and Revenue Disaggregation” for further information.

 

Because the Company’s contracts have an expected duration of one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) to not disclose information about its remaining performance obligations.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk, Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents placed with high credit quality institutions and accounts receivable due from Pro-Tech’s customers. Management evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. If management becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations after a sale has occurred, the Company records an allowance to reduce the net receivable to the amount that it reasonably believes to be collectable from the customer. Accounts receivable are written off at the point they are considered uncollectible. Due to historically very low uncollectible balances and no specific indications of current uncollectibility, the Company haswe have not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts at September 30,March 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019. If the financial conditions of Pro-Tech’s customers were to deteriorate or if general economic conditions were to worsen, additional allowances may be required in the future.

 

As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, three customers comprised 50%70% of the Company’s gross accounts receivable.receivables and three customers comprised 72% of the Company’s total revenue.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, Plant and Equipment is stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and the costs of additions and betterments that increase the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. When property, plant and equipment is disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the condensed consolidated balance sheets and any gain or loss is included in Other income/(expense) in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, as follows:

 

Asset category Useful Life
Welding equipment, Trucks, Machinery and equipment 5 years
Office equipment 5 - 7 years
Computer hardware and software 7 years

See Note 4, Property, Plant and Equipment, for further information.


Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

Finite-lived intangible assets are recorded at cost, net of accumulated amortization and, if applicable, impairment charges. Amortization of finite-lived intangible assets is provided over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis or the pattern in which economic benefits are consumed, if reliably determinable. The Company reviews its finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

 

We perform an impairment test of goodwill annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. To date, anA goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill has not been recorded.allocated to that reporting unit. We have determined that the Company is comprised of one reporting unit at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the goodwill balances of $145,149 are included in the single reporting unit. For the year ended December 31, 2019, we bypassed the qualitative assessment, and proceeded directly to the quantitative test for goodwill impairment and noted no indication of goodwill impairment was necessary.

 

The Company’s Goodwill balance consists of the amount recognized in connection with the acquisition of Pro-Tech. See Note 3, Pro-Tech Acquisition, for further information. The Company’s other intangible assets are comprised of contract-based and marketing-related intangible assets, as well as acquisition-related intangibles. Acquisition-related intangibles include the value of Pro-Tech’s trademark and customer relationships, both of which are being amortized over their expected useful lives of 10 years beginning August 2018.

 

The Company’s contract-based intangible assets includeat March 31, 2019 included an agreement to sublicense certain patents belonging to Armacor Victory Ventures, LLC (the “AVV Sublicense”) and a license (the “Trademark License”) to the trademark of a proprietary coating technology. The contract-based intangible assets havehad useful lives of approximately 11 years for the AVV Sublicense and 15 years for the Trademark License. With the initiation of a multi-year strategy plan involving synergies between the acquisition of Pro-Tech and the Company’s existing intellectual property, theThe Company has begunbegan to use the economic benefits of its intangible assets, and therefore began amortization of its intangible assets on a straight-line basis over the useful lives indicated above beginning July 31, 2018, the effective date of the Pro-Tech acquisition.

See Note 7, Goodwill However, during 2019 the Company determined that the AVV Sublicense and Other Intangible Assets,the Trademark License were unlikely to produce future cash flows and, Note 13, Subsequent Events, for further information.accordingly, those intangible assets were written down to zero.

 

Business Combinations

 

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The excess of the fair value of consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company from time to time may issue stock options, warrants and restricted stock as compensation to employees, directors, officers and affiliates, as well as to acquire goods or services from third parties. In all cases, the Company calculates share-based compensation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and expenses awards based on fair value at the grant date on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which in the case of third party suppliers is the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the vesting period, and for employees, directors, officers and affiliates is typically the vesting period. Share-based compensation is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 9,7, Stock OptionsStockholders’ Equity, for further information.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws and regulations. Deferred tax assets include tax loss and credit carry forwards and are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 


Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 28,037,713 and 21,290,933,28,037,713, respectively, at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and DecemberMarch 31, 2018.2019. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilutive effects of common stock equivalents such as options, warrants and convertible securities. Given the historical and projected future losses of the Company, all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents are considered anti-dilutive.

 

3. Pro-Tech Acquisition

On July 31, 2018, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Pro-Tech, a hardbanding service provider servicing Oklahoma Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and New Mexico. The Company believes that the acquisition of Pro-Tech will create opportunities to leverage its existing portfolio of intellectual property to fulfill its mission of operating as a technology-focused oilfield services company.


In exchange for the outstanding common stock of Pro-Tech, Victory agreed to pay consideration of approximately $1,386,000, comprised of the following:

(i) a total of $500,000 in cash at closing, including $150,000 previously deposited into escrow;

(ii) 11,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $0.75 per share;

(iii) $264,078 in cash on the 60th day following the closing date, and

(iv) a zero-coupon note payable with discounted value of $614,223 at the date of acquisition (for further information, see Note 8, Notes Payable)

The fair value of customer relationships and trademarks is provisional pending determination of final valuation of those assets. The Company believes the methodology and estimates utilized to determine the net tangible assets and intangible assets are reasonable.

Net tangible assets acquired, at fair value $1,068,905 
Intangible assets acquired:  - 
Customer relationships  129,680 
Trademark  42,840 
Goodwill  145,148 
Total purchase price $1,386,573 

The following table summarizes the components of the net tangible assets acquired, at fair value:

Cash and cash equivalents $203,883 
Accounts receivable  264,078 
Inventories  54,364 
Property and equipment  678,361 
Deferred tax liability  (87,470)
Other assets and liabilities, net  (44,311)
Net tangible assets acquired $1,068,905 

Pro-Tech’s results of operations subsequent to the July 31, 2018 acquisition date are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The below unaudited combined pro-forma financial data of Victory and Pro-Tech reflects results of operations as though the companies had been combined as of the beginning of each of the periods presented.

The amendments in ASU 2017-04 require goodwill impairment to be measured using the difference between the carrying amount and Visionary Private Equity Group I, LP, a Missouri limited partnership (“VPEG”) entered into a settlement agreement and mutual release (the “Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which VPEG agreed to release and discharge the Company from its obligations under the VPEG Note (see below). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, and in consideration and full satisfactionfair value of the outstanding indebtednessreporting unit and require the loss recognized to not exceed the total amount of $1,410,200 undergoodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

In January 2020, the World Health Organization has declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern,” which continues to spread throughout the world and has adversely impacted global commercial activity and contributed to significant declines and volatility in financial markets. The coronavirus outbreak and government responses are creating disruption in global supply chains and adversely impacting many industries. The outbreak could have a continued material adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate material adverse impact of the coronavirus outbreak. Nevertheless, the outbreak presents uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company, its performance, and its financial results.

Business Overview

 

General Overview

 

Victory Oilfield Tech, Inc. (“Victory”, the “Company”, “we”), a Nevada corporation, is an Austin, Texas based publicly held oilfield energy technology products company focused on improving well performance and extending the lifespan of the industry’s most sophisticated and expensive equipment. America’s resurgence in oil and gas production is largely driven by new innovative technologies and processes as most dramatically and recently demonstrated by fracking. We provide and apply wear-resistant alloys for use in the global oilfield services industry which are mechanically stronger, harder and more corrosion resistant than typical crystalline structure alloys found in the market today. This combination of characteristics creates opportunities for drillers to dramatically improve lateral drilling lengths, well completion time and total well costs.

On July 31, 2018, we entered into a stock purchase agreement to purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Pro-Tech Hardbanding Services, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (“Pro-Tech”), which provides various hardbanding solutions to oilfield operators for drill pipe, weight pipe, tubing and drill collars and servicing Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and New Mexico. We believe that the acquisition of Pro-Tech will create opportunities to leverage its existing portfolio of intellectual property to fulfill its mission of operating as a technology-focused oilfield services company. The stock purchase agreement was included as Exhibit 10.1 on the Form 8-K filed by us on August 2, 2018.

 

Our wear-resistant alloys reduce drill-string torque, friction, wear and corrosion in a cost-effective manner, while protecting the integrity of the base metal. We apply our coatings using advanced welding techniques and thermal spray methods. We also utilize common materials, such as tungsten carbide to chromium carbide, to deliver the optimal solution to the customers. Some of our hardbanding processes protect wear in tubulars using materials that achieve a low coefficient of friction to protect the drillstring and casing from abrasion.

Growth Strategy

 

We plan to continue our U.S. oilfield services company acquisition initiative, aimed at companies which are already recognized as a high-quality service providers to strategic customers in the major North American oil and gas basins. When completed, we expect that each of these oilfield services company acquisitions will provide immediate revenue from their current regional customer base, while also providing us with a foundation for channel distribution and product development of our existing products. We intend to grow each of these established oilfield services companies by providing better access to capital, more disciplined sales and marketing development, integrated supply chain logistics and infrastructure build out that emphasizes outstanding customer service and customer collaboration, future product development and planning.

 

We believe that a well-capitalized technology-enabled oilfield services business will provide the basis for more accessible financing to fund our growthgrow the Company and to execute our oilfield services company acquisitions strategy. We anticipate new innovative products will come to market as we collaborate with drillers to solve their other down-hole needs.

Recent Developments

 

Impact of Coronavirus Pandemic

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. The virus has since spread to over 150 countries and every state in the United States. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency. Most states and cities have reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, “stay-at-home” rules and restrictions on the types of businesses that may continue to operate, as well as guidance in response to the pandemic and the need to contain it.

 

Although stay at home orders and lock downs on businesses in the areas where we operate have caused our staff to conduct business operations from their homes, this change has not resulted in a significant impact to our ability to operate. However, the spread of the coronavirus outbreak across the world has driven sharp demand destruction for crude oil as whole economies ordered curtailed activity. As a result, companies across the industry have responded with severe capital spending budget cuts, personnel layoffs, facility closures and bankruptcy filings. We expect industry activity levels and spending by customers to remain depressed throughout the remainder of 2020 and into 2021 as destruction of demand for oil and gas continues.

 


As the coronavirus continues to spread throughout areas in which we operate, we believe the outbreak has the potential to have a material negative impact on our operating results and financial condition. The extent of the impact of the coronavirus on our operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, impact on our operators, employees and vendors, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. The extent of the pandemic’s continued effect on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration, spread and intensity of the outbreak, the pace at which jurisdictions across the country re-open and restrictions begin to lift, the availability of government financial support to our business and our customers, and whether a resurgence of the outbreak occurs. Given these uncertainties, we cannot reasonably estimate the related impact to our business, operating results and financial condition, but it could be material.

 


Key Events

On July 31, 2018, we entered into a stock purchase agreement to purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Pro-Tech Hardbanding Services, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (“Pro-Tech”), which provides various hardbanding solutions to oilfield operators for drill pipe, weight pipe, tubing and drill collars and servicing Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and New Mexico. We believe that the acquisition of Pro-Tech will create opportunities to leverage its existing portfolio of intellectual property to fulfill its mission of operating as a technology-focused oilfield services company. The stock purchase agreement was included as Exhibit 10-1 on the Form 8-K filed by us on August 2, 2018.

On July 31, 2018, we entered into a loan agreement to fund the acquisition of Pro-Tech with Kodak Brothers Real Estate Cash Flow Fund, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Kodak”), pursuant to which the Company borrowed $375,000 from Kodak under a 10% secured convertible promissory note maturing March 31, 2019, with an option to extend maturity to June 30, 2019 (the “Kodak Note”). Under the loan agreement with Kodak, we issued to an affiliate of Kodak a five-year warrant to purchase 375,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $0.75 per share. The loan agreement with Kodak was included as Exhibit 10-3 on the Form 8-K filed by us on August 2, 2018.

Subsequent Events

 

During the period of OctoberApril 1, 20192020 through October 31, 2020January 1, 2021, we received additional loan proceeds of $859,800$501,700 from VPEG pursuant to the New VPEG Note.Note (See Note 9, Related Party Transactions, to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a definition and description of the New VPEG Note).

 

On October 21, 2019, we, Kodak and Pro-Tech entered into a Second Extension and Modification Agreement, effective September 30, 2019, pursuant to which the maturity date of the Kodak Note was extended from September 30, 2019 to December 20, 2019, and the interest rate was increased from 15% to 17.5%. Upon the execution of the Second Extension and Modification Agreement, we paid to Kodak interest on the Loan for the fourth quarter of 2019 in the amount of $11,059.03, and an extension fee in the amount of $14,062.50. We agreed to: (i) pay a total of $12,500.00 to Kodak and its manager, which represents due diligence fees; (ii) pay to Kodak and its manager a total of $27,500, which represents $25,000 of loan monitoring fees and $2,500 of loan extension fees; (iii) on or before October 31, 2019, pay to Kodak the sum of $125,000, as a payment of principal, and we will incur a late of $5,000 for every seven (7) days (or portion thereof) that the balance remains unpaid after October 31, 2019; (iv) on or before November 29, 2019, pay to Kodak the sum of $125,000, as a payment of principal, and we will incur a late fees of $5,000 for every seven (7) days (or portion thereof) that the balance remains unpaid after November 29, 2019; and (v) on or before December 30, 2019, we will pay to Kodak any unpaid and/or outstanding balances owed on the Note. If the Note and any late fees, other fees, interest, or principal is not paid in full by December 30, 2019, we will pay to Kodak $25,000 as liquidated damages.

As of January 10, 2020, VPEG, on our behalf, has paid in full all amounts due in connection with the Kodak Note. The November 29, 2019 payment was not paid timely and therefore we incurred a $5,000 penalty. The December 30, 2019 payment was not paid timely and accordingly we incurred penalties of $45,000 and interest of $9,076.

Effective September 1, 2020, we and AVV (See Note 9, Related Party Transactions, to the condensed consolidated financial statements for definitions and additional information) have mutually agreed to terminate the AVV Sublicense Agreement and Trademark License. Since the date of the Transaction Agreement, we have not realized any revenue from products or services related to the AVV Sublicense Agreement or Trademark License. Also effective September 1, 2020, we and LMCE have agreed to terminate the supply and services agreement dated September 6, 2019 although we continue to purchase and utilize the products of LMCE. We are evaluating our business strategy in light of the current conditions of the national and global oil and gas markets.

 

On October 30, 2020, we and VPEG entered into an amendment to the New Debt Agreement (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to increase the loan amount to up to $3,000,000 to cover advances from VPEG through October 30, 2020 and our working capital needs.

 

On January 31, 2021, we and VPEG entered into an amendment to the New Debt Agreement (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to increase the loan amount to up to $3,500,000 to cover future working capital needs.

Loss from Continuing Operations, Income from Discontinued Operations, and Rogers note. Loss Applicable to Common Stockholders

 

Tax benefit: There is no tax benefit recorded for either the three months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018 due to the net operating losses (“NOL”) of both periods. The realization of future tax benefits is dependent on our ability to generate taxable income within the NOL carry forward period. Given our history of net operating losses, management has determined that it is more-likely-than-not we will not be able to realize the tax benefit of the carry forwards. Current standards require that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Current standards require that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Income from discontinued operations: Income from discontinued operations decreased by $60,535 or 48%, to $66,494 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from $127,029 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as a result of trailing activity managed by the company on behalf of Aurora Energy Partners. Income from discontinued operations in the 2019 and 2018 periods was due to trailing activity managed by the Company on behalf of Aurora.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Going Concern

 

Historically we have experienced, and we continue to experience, net losses, net losses from operations, negative cash flow from operating activities, and working capital deficits. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Management anticipates that operating losses will continue in the near term as we continue efforts to leverage our intellectual property through the platform provided by the acquisition of Pro-Tech and, potentially, other acquisitions. In the near term, we are relying on financing obtained from VPEG through the New VPEG Note to fund operations as we seek to generate positive cash flow from operations. See Note 86 “Notes Payable,” and Note 139 “Related Party Transactions,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the New VPEG Note. In addition to increasing cash flow from operations, we will be required to obtain other liquidity resources in order to support ongoing operations. We are addressing this need by developing additional capital sources which we believe will enable us to execute our recapitalization and growth plan. This plan includes the expansion of Pro-Tech’s core hardbanding business through additional drilling services and the development of additional products and services including wholesale materials, RFID enclosures and mid-pipe coating solutions. 

 

Based upon capital formation activities as well as the ongoing near-term funding provided through the New VPEG Note, we believe we will have enough capital to cover expenses through at least the next twelve months. We will continue to monitor liquidity carefully, and in the event we do not have enough capital to cover expenses, we will make the necessary and appropriate reductions in spending to remain cash flow positive.

 

Capital Resources

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we received loan proceeds of $517,000obtained $601,076 from VPEG through the New VPEG Note, and advances of $175,000 from Ron Zamber, who is a Director and shareholder, to provide funding for operations.Note. As of OctoberMarch 31, 20202021 and for the foreseeable future, we expect to cover operating shortfalls if any, with funding through the New VPEG Note while we enact our strategy to become a technology-focused oilfield services company and seek additional sources of capital. As of OctoberMarch 31, 20202021 the remaining amount available to us for additional borrowings on the New VPEG Note was approximately $315,900.$377,324.

 

In addition, during 2019, we extended the maturity date ofthree months ended March 31, 2020, VPEG, on our behalf, paid in full all amounts due in connection with the Kodak Note. See Note 8,6, Notes Payable and Note 13, Subsequent Events,, to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regardinga description of the Kodak Note.

 


During 2018, we converted several related party debt instruments to equity. See Note 4, Related Party Transactions, to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on these agreements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current of future effect on our financial condition.

 

Cash Flow

 

The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and 2018:2019:

The most significant drivers were decreases in accounts receivable (due to timing of collections) and increases in accrued and other short term liabilities which were partially offset by increases in prepaids and other current assets in addition to decreases in accounts payable.

This compares to cash used in operating activities for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2018March 31, 2019 of $(11,441,010)$50,677 after the net loss adjusted for non-cash items for that period provided cash of ($12,695,933) was increased by adjustments to reconcile net loss to cash used$11,450.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 was $299,061$207,869 compared to $1,023,129$120,869 in net cash provided by financing activities during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. In each of 20192020 and 2018 nine month periods2019 net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to debt financing proceeds from affiliates, net of repayments and redemptions of preferred stock.repayments.

  

We believe it will be necessary to obtain additional liquidity resources in order to support our operations. We are addressing our liquidity needs by developing additional backup capital sources.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements:

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on a modified retrospective basis. We recognize revenue as it satisfies contractual performance obligations by transferring promised goods or services to the customers. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those promised goods or services A good or service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that good or service.

 


We have one revenue stream, which relates to the provision of hardbanding services by its subsidiary Pro-Tech. All performance obligations of our contracts with customers are satisfied over the duration of the contract as customer-owned equipment is serviced and then made available for immediate use as completed during the service period. We have reviewed our contracts with Pro-Tech customers and determined that due to their short-term nature, with durations of several days of service at the customer’s location, it is only those contracts that occur near the end of a financial reporting period that will potentially require allocation to ensure revenue is recognized in the proper period. We have reviewed all such transactions and recorded revenue accordingly.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, all of our revenue was recognized from contracts with oilfield operators, and we did not recognize impairment losses on any receivables or contract assets.

 

Because our contracts have an expected duration of one year or less, we have elected the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) to not disclose information about its remaining performance obligations.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk, Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents placed with high credit quality institutions and accounts receivable due from Pro-Tech’s customers. Management evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. If management becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations after a sale has occurred, we record an allowance to reduce the net receivable to the amount that it reasonably believes to be collectable from the customer. Accounts receivable are written off at the point they are considered uncollectible. Due to historically very low uncollectible balances and no specific indications of current uncollectibility, we have not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. If the financial conditions of Pro-Tech’s customers were to deteriorate or if general economic conditions were to worsen, additional allowances may be required in the future. 

 

As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, three customers comprised 50%70% of our gross accounts receivables.receivables and three customers comprised 72% of our total revenue.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, Plant and Equipment is stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and the costs of additions and betterments that increase the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. When property, plant and equipment is disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the condensed consolidated balance sheets and any gain or loss is included in Other income/(expense) in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 


Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, as follows:

  

Asset category Useful Life
Welding equipment, Trucks, Machinery and equipment 5 years
Office equipment 5 - 7 years
Computer hardware and software 7 years

 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

Finite-lived intangible assets are recorded at cost, net of accumulated amortization and, if applicable, impairment charges. Amortization of finite-lived intangible assets is provided over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis or the pattern in which economic benefits are consumed, if reliably determinable. We review our finite-lived intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

 

We perform an impairment test of goodwill annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. To date, anA goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill has not been recorded.allocated to that reporting unit. We have determined that the Company is comprised of one reporting unit at December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the goodwill balances of $145,149 at December 31 of each year are included in the single reporting unit. For the year ended December 31, 2020, we bypassed the qualitative assessment, and proceeded directly to the quantitative test for goodwill impairment and noted no indication of goodwill impairment was necessary.

 

Our Goodwill balance consists of the amount recognized in connection with the acquisition of Pro-Tech. See Note 3, Pro-Tech Acquisition, for further information. Our other intangible assets are comprised of contract-based and marketing-related intangible assets, as well as acquisition-related intangibles. Acquisition-related intangibles include the value of Pro-Tech’s trademark and customer relationships, both of which are being amortized over their expected useful lives of 10 years beginning August 2018.

 


Our contract-based intangible assets include an agreement to sublicense certain patents belonging to Armacor Victory Ventures, LLCAVV (the “AVV Sublicense”) and, a license (the “Trademark License”) to the trademark of a proprietary coating technology.Liquidmetal Coatings Enterprises LLC (“Liquidmetal”), and several non-compete agreements made in connection with the acquisition of the AVV Sublicense and the Trademark License (the “Non-Compete Agreements”). The contract-based intangible assets have useful lives of approximately 11 years for the AVV Sublicense and 15 years for the Trademark License. With the initiation of a multi-year strategy plan involving synergies between the acquisition of Pro-Tech and our existing intellectual property, we have begun to use the economic benefits of ourits intangible assets, and therefore began amortization of ourits intangible assets on a straight-line basis over the useful lives indicated above beginning July 31, 2018, the effective date of the Pro-Tech acquisition.

 

See Note 7, GoodwillDuring the year ended December 31, 2019, we recorded impairment of the AVV Sublicense, the Trademark License and Other Intangible Assets, for further information.the Non-Compete Agreements totaling $2,616,705.

 

Business Combinations

 

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date in our condensed consolidated financial statements. The excess of the fair value of consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

We fromFrom time to time we may issue stock options, warrants and restricted stock as compensation to employees, directors, officers and affiliates, as well as to acquire goods or services from third parties. In all cases, the we calculate share-based compensation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and expenses awards based on fair value at the grant date on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which in the case of third party suppliers is the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the vesting period, and for employees, directors, officers and affiliates is typically the vesting period. Share-based compensation is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 12,7, Stock OptionsStockholder’s Equity, for further information.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws and regulations. Deferred tax assets include tax loss and credit carry forwards and are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding at September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 28,037,713 and 21,290,933,28,037,713, respectively, at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and DecemberMarch 31, 2018.2019. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilutive effects of common stock equivalents such as options, warrants and convertible securities. Given ourthe historical and projected future losses, all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents are considered anti-dilutive.

 

RecentRecently Adopted Accounting PronouncementsStandards

On October 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”), which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment. The amendments in ASU 2017-04 require goodwill impairment to be measured using the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the reporting unit and require the loss recognized to not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 has been applied on a prospective basis, effective for our annual goodwill impairment test beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2019-12 on our financial statements.


Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Discussions about Market Risk

 

Not applicable.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have evaluated, with the participation of our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer determined that, because of the material weakness described in Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018,2019, which we are still in the process of remediating as of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Changes in Internal Controls 

 

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

 

During its evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our management identified the following material weaknesses:

 

We lack sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency represents a material weakness.

 

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018,2019, our management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses, and in the first halfquarter of fiscal 2019,2020, we continued to implement these remedial procedures. In order to cure the foregoing material weakness, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions are performed by separate individuals to the extent possible. In addition, we will look to hire additional personnel with technical accounting expertise to further support our current accounting personnel. As necessary, we will continue to engage consultants or outside accounting firms in order to ensure proper accounting for our consolidated financial statements.

 

We intend to complete the remediation of the material weaknesses discussed above as soon as practicable, but we can give no assurance that we will be able to do so. Designing and implementing an effective disclosure controls and procedures is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to devote significant resources to maintain a financial reporting system that adequately satisfies our reporting obligations. The remedial measures that we have taken and intend to take may not fully address the material weaknesses that we have identified, and material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures may be identified in the future. Should we discover such conditions, we intend to remediate them as soon as practicable. We are committed to taking appropriate steps for remediation, as needed.

 

The lack of full time accounting personnel and financial constraints resulting in delayed payments to our external professional services providers have restricted our ability to gather, analyze and properly review information related to financial reporting in a timely manner. For these reasons, we were unable to timely file our quarterly reports and annual report during 2019 and our quarterly reports during 2020.

Due to resource constraints, from time to time we have not had the resources to fund sufficient staff and pay professional fees to ensure that all of our reports are filed timely. However, our management has recently obtained, and continues to actively seek, additional sources of capital which we believe will allow us to increase our staffing levels and remain current on our obligations to our external professional services providers. We believe this action, in addition to future improvements, will allow us to resume timely public reporting practices no later than the first quarter of 2021.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

ThereExcept for the matters described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first nine monthsquarter of 2019fiscal year 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
