NOTE 6 – LEASES

We have leases for office equipment and office space. The leases for office equipment are classified as financing leases, and the typical term is between 36 and 60 months. We have the option to extend most office equipment leases, but we do not intend to do so. Accordingly, no extensions have been recognized in the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The office equipment lease payments are not variable, and the lease agreements do not include any non-lease components, residual value guarantees, or restrictions. There are no interest rates implicit in the office equipment lease agreements, so we have used our incremental borrowing rate to determine the discount rate to be applied to our financing leases for the purpose of determining our lease liabilities. The weighted average discount rate applied to our financing leases is 4.50% and the weighted average remaining lease term is ~~3.3~~3.0 years.

The following table shows the components of financing lease cost:

For the ~~Three~~Six Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held 5,085,203 and 5,038,130 shares of its common stock in treasury at a total cost of $7,394,281 and $7,336,323, respectively.

On May 9, 2023, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a share repurchase program allowing the Company to repurchase up to $2,000,000 worth of the Company’s common stock from time to time through April 30, 2024. Any purchases under the program will be made at the discretion of management or may also be made pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan. The size and timing of any purchases will depend on price, market and business conditions and other factors.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the Company had ~~568,985~~785,995 restricted stock units ("RSUs"), ~~640,364~~1,057,044 performance-based RSUs, and ~~759,900~~673,450 stock options outstanding with ~~$651,626~~$986,064 in remaining compensation expense to be recognized over the next ~~1.5~~1.6 years. See further details below about certain subsets of these outstanding equity-based awards.

On June 29, 2023, pursuant to the annual renewal of director compensation, the Board approved a grant of 195,966 RSUs to the Company's independent directors. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date or at the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders, whichever is earlier. The awards will result in total compensation expense of approximately $243,000 to be recognized over the vesting period.

PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

On April 25, 2023, the Compensation Committee approved the 2023 Executive Incentive Plan (the “2023 EIP”) for Messrs. Oviatt, Tidball, and Fisher. The 2023 EIP provides for the potential award of incentive compensation to the participants based on the Company’s financial performance in fiscal 2023. If earned, the incentive compensation will be payable in cash and stock, and the stock portion of the incentive compensation is intended to constitute an award under the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). In addition to the 2023 EIP, the Board also approved as a long-term incentive plan the grants of a restricted stock unit awards to Messrs. Oviatt, Tidball, and Fisher pursuant to the 2023 Plan (the “2023 LTIP”). The 2023 Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors on April 25, 2023, subject to shareholder approval at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “Annual Meeting”). The 2023 Plan was approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Annual Meeting which was held on June 14, 2023.

2023 EIP

Under the terms of the 2023 EIP, each participating executive officer has been assigned a target incentive compensation amount for fiscal 2023. The target incentive compensation amount for Mr. Oviatt is equal to 62% of his base salary as of December 31, 2023, the target incentive compensation amount for Mr. Tidball is equal to 62% of his base salary as of December 31, 2023, and the target incentive compensation for Mr. Fisher is equal to 37% of his base salary as of December 31, 2023. Under no circumstance can the participants receive more than two times the assigned target incentive compensation.

Participants will be eligible to receive incentive compensation based upon reaching or exceeding performance goals established by the Compensation Committee for fiscal 2023. The performance goals in the 2023 EIP are based on the Company’s total revenue, EBITDA, and two non-financial factors including revenue source diversification and safety and environmental performance. Each of the revenue, EBITDA, and revenue diversification performance goals will be weighted 30% while the safety and environment goal will be weighted 10% in calculating incentive compensation amounts.

The incentive compensation amounts earned under the 2023 EIP, if any, will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in shares of restricted stock under the 2023 Plan, subject to the 2023 Plan being approved by shareholders as described above. In no event shall the total award exceed 200% of the target incentive compensation amount for each participant, or exceed any limitations otherwise set forth in the 2023 Plan. The actual incentive compensation amounts, if any, will be determined by the Compensation Committee upon the completion of fiscal 2023 and paid by March 15, 2024, subject to all applicable tax withholding.

2023 LTIP

The 2023 LTIP consists of total awards of up to 287,076 restricted stock units (“Units”) to Mr. Oviatt, up to 287,076 Units to Mr. Tidball, and up to 50,868 Units to Mr. Fisher, pursuant to two separate restricted stock unit award agreements (collectively, the “Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements”) to be entered between the Company and each participant. One such agreement will cover 33% of each award recipient’s Units that are subject to time-based vesting, and the other such agreement will cover the remaining 67% of such award recipient’s Units that may vest based on performance metrics. Upon vesting, and subject to the 2023 Plan being approved by shareholders as described above, the award agreements entitle the award recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each vested Unit. The vesting period of the 2023 LTIP began on January 1, 2023 and terminates on December 31, 2025 (the “Performance Vesting Date”).

The Units subject to time-based vesting, including 95,692 Units to Mr. Oviatt, 95,692 Units for Mr. Tidball, and 16,956 Units to Mr. Fisher, will vest in three equal and annual installments beginning December 31, 2023 and ending on December 31, 2025 if the award recipients’ employment continues with the Company through such dates.

The performance-vesting Units, including up to 191,384 Units for Mr. Oviatt, 191,384 Units for Mr. Tidball, and 33,912 Units to Mr. Fisher, may vest over a three-year performance period beginning January 1, 2023 (the “Performance Period”) based upon the following Company performance metrics:

Oviatt, ~~the Company's Co-CEO, Co-President,~~Tidball, and ~~CFO, Cameron M. Tidball, the Company's Co-CEO and Co-President, and Patrick D. Fisher, the Company's Vice President of Product Development.~~Fisher. The 2022 EIP provided for the potential award of incentive compensation to the participants based on the Company’s financial performance in fiscal 2022. The incentive compensation was payable in cash and stock, and the stock portion of the incentive compensation ~~is intended to constitute~~constituted an award under the Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan").

~~For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022~~

Participants were eligible to receive incentive compensation based upon reaching or exceeding performance goals established by the Compensation Committee for fiscal 2022. The performance goals in the 2022 EIP were based on the Company’s total revenue, EBITDA, and a non-financial milestone relating to revenue source diversification. Each of these performance goals were weighted one third in calculating incentive compensation amounts.

On March 6, 2023, the Compensation Committee approved the incentive compensation amounts based on achieving certain targets pursuant to the 2022 EIP. The incentive compensation amounts earned under the 2022 EIP were paid 50% in cash and 50% in shares of restricted stock under the Plan. The incentive compensation amounts resulted in the Compensation Committee approving a one-time bonus for Company executives that was settled by issuing a total of 341,961 shares of common stock, or 192,964 shares net of tax withholding. These shares were fully vested as of March 6, 2023.

In addition to the 2022 EIP, the Board also approved as a long-term incentive plan the grants of restricted stock unit awards to Messrs. Oviatt, Tidball, and Fisher pursuant to the Plan (the “2022 LTIP”). The 2022 LTIP consists of total awards of up to 230,232 RSUs to Mr. Oviatt, up to 230,232 RSUs to Mr. Tidball, and up to 43,023 RSUs to Mr. Fisher, pursuant to two separate restricted stock unit award agreements (collectively, the “2022 LTIP Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements”) entered into between the Company and each participant. One such agreement covers the 33% of each award recipient’s RSUs that are subject to time-based vesting, and the other such agreement covers the remaining 67% of such award recipient’s RSUs that may vest based on performance metrics. Upon vesting, the award agreements entitle the award recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each vested unit. The vesting period of the 2022 LTIP began on January 1, 2022 and terminates on December 31, 2024 (the “2022 LTIP Performance Vesting Date”).

NOTE 8 – REVENUE

Performance Obligations

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

Our customers have the right to return certain unused and unopened products within 90 days for a restocking fee. We provide a warranty on some of our products ranging from 90 days to 2 years, depending on the product. See Note 5 for the amount accrued for expected returns and warranty claims as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

Contract Balances

We have elected to use the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4 (regarding recognition of the incremental costs of obtaining a contract) for costs related to contracts that are estimated to be completed within one year. All of our current sales contracts and service contracts are expected to be completed within one year, and as a result, we have not recognized a contract asset account. If we had chosen not to use this practical expedient, we would not expect a material difference in the contract balances. Occasionally, we collect milestone payments up front from customers on larger jobs. These payments are classified as deferred revenue until the deliverables have been met and revenue can be properly recognized in our financial

PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

statements. Each of the contracts related to these milestone payments is short-term in nature and we expect to recognize associated revenues within one year. As a result, we consider it appropriate to record deferred revenue for these transactions and do not have any other contract liability balances.

Disaggregation of Revenue

We consider all revenue recognized in the income statement to be revenue from contracts with customers. The table below shows revenue by category:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting our consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources during the ~~three-month~~three- and six month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022. This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to the financial statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), that are based on management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. For this purpose, any statement contained in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking, including, but not limited to, statements relating to our future actions, intentions, plans, strategies, objectives, results of operations, cash flows and the adequacy of or need to seek additional capital resources and liquidity. Words such as "may," "should," "expect," "project," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "intend," "budget," "forecast," "predict," "potential," "continue," "should," "could," "will," or comparable terminology or the negative of such terms are intended to identify forward-looking statements; however, the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements by their nature involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. Such factors include, but are not limited to, economic conditions generally and in the oil and gas industry in which we and our customers participate; competition within our industry; legislative requirements or changes which could render our products or services less competitive or obsolete; our failure to successfully develop new products and/or services or to anticipate current or prospective customers' needs; price increases; limits to employee capabilities; delays, reductions, or cancellations of contracts we have previously entered into; sufficiency of working capital, capital resources and liquidity and other factors detailed herein and in our other filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC" or "Commission"). Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those indicated. The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this report. For a more detailed discussion of the principal factors that could cause actual results to be materially different, you should read our risk factors in Item 1A. Risk Factors, included elsewhere in this report.

Forward-looking statements are based on current industry, financial, and economic information which we have assessed but which by its nature is dynamic and subject to rapid and possibly abrupt changes. Due to risks and uncertainties associated with our business, our actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied by such forward-looking statements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of these forward-looking statements and we hereby qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Forward-looking statements in this report are based only on information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on which they are made. We undertake no obligation to amend this report or revise publicly these forward-looking statements (other than as required by law) to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, whether as the result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this report and in our other filings with the Commission.

Overview

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

Principal Products and Services

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

Oil and gas companies, including upstream, midstream, downstream, pipeline, and gathering operators, utilize burner-management systems to achieve increased safety, greater operational efficiencies, and improved compliance with industry regulations. Without a burner-management system, a field employee must discover and reignite an extinguished burner flame, then restart the application manually. Therefore, without a proper burner-management system, all application monitoring must be accomplished in-person, directly on-site. This requirement for on-site monitoring, in an operational environment with limited field personnel, can result in the potential interruption of production for long periods of time and increased risks associated with reigniting a flame, which can lead to site hazards, including explosions and the possibility of venting gas into the atmosphere. In addition, without a burner-management system, burners often operate for longer durations, frequently with lower efficiency, resulting in increased equipment fatigue and greater expense related to fuel consumption.

We continue to assess regulatory requirements applicable to our customers. We believe that burner-management systems and services offer solutions for customers to meet compliance standards where applicable. In addition to product sales, we dispatch specialized service technicians to provide maintenance and installation support throughout the United States and Canada.

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

Our systems and solutions have been widely adopted by exploration and production companies, midstream operators, pipeline operators, as well as downstream transmission and utility providers. Our customers include Antero, ATCO, Chevron, Chesapeake, CNRL, ~~Concho Resources,~~Conoco, Devon Energy, Dominion Energy, EQT, Kinder Morgan, National Grid, Ovintiv, Oxy, Range Resources, Williams, XTO, and others. Our systems have also been sold and installed in other parts of the world including many countries in South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Though firmly established and primarily focused on North American oil and gas markets, we continue to invest in expansion efforts in developing sales in diversified industries where our combustion technology can be utilized.

Environmental, Social and Governance Focus

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

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

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

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

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