Basis of Presentation

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Superior Drilling Products Inc. and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company does not have investments in any unconsolidated subsidiaries.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022, and the related footnote disclosures included herein, are unaudited. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of management’s estimates. The results of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year ended December 31, 2023. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the notes thereto, which were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Significant Accounting Policies

 

The Company’s accounting policies are set forth in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC. There were no significant updates or revisions to our accounting policies during the three or sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”) and in April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04 “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2019-04”) (collectively, the “CECL Standard”). These updates change how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value. The CECL Standard replaces the “incurred loss” approach under existing guidance with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. The CECL Standard requires entities to record allowances for held-to-maturity and available-for-sale debt securities that is deducted from the carrying amount of the assets to present the net carrying value at the amounts expected to be collected on the assets. All assets subject to the CECL Standard, with few exceptions, will be subject to these allowances rather than only those assets where a loss is deemed probable under the other-than-temporary impairment model. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the standard using the prospective method with no impact to condensed consolidated financial statements.

Concurrent with the sale of the Property, the Company entered into a fifteen-year lease agreement (the “Lease Agreement”) to lease back the Property at an annual rate of $311,395 with payments made monthly, subject to annual rent increases of 1.5%. Under the Lease Agreement, the Company has an option to extend the term of the lease and to repurchase the Property. Due to this repurchase option, the Company was unable to account for the transfer as a sale under ASC 842, Leases, and as such, the transaction is a failed sale-leaseback that is accounted for as a financing transaction.

 

The Company received cash of $1,622,106, retired real estate debt of $2,638,773 and recorded a financing obligation liability of $4,260,879 related to the transaction. There was no gain recorded since sale accounting was precluded. The financing obligation has an implied interest rate of 6.0%. At the conclusion of the fifteen-year lease period, the financing obligation residual is estimated to be $2,188,710, which corresponds to the carrying value of the property. The Company paid $36,87955,121 and $32,53248,455 of principal during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The outstanding balance of the financing obligation liability is summarized below:

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

We are subject to litigation that arises from time to time in the ordinary course of our business activities. In February 2019, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit, in the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, Lafayette Division, asserting that Stabil Drill Specialties, LLC’s (“Stabil Drill”) SmoothboreTM Eccentric Reamer infringes theseveral patents of Extreme Technologies, LLC (one of our subsidiaries) on our patented Drill-N-Ream® well bore conditioning tool. TheThis lawsuit was subsequently moved from Louisiana tois pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. Additionally, on May 20, 2019, Extreme Technologies, LLC sued Short Bit & Tool Co. and Lot William Short, Jr. (“Defendants”) in the Northern District of Texas-Dallas Division for their work manufacturing the Smoothbore Eccentric Reamer for Stabil Drill. The Dallas lawsuit is stayed pending resolution of the first-filed, Houston suit. On October 1, 2020, Superior Energy Services, Stabil Drill’s parent company, filed for bankruptcy, which resulted in a brief, automatic stay of the litigation. Superior Energy Services announced on February 2, 2021, that it successfully completed its financial restructuring and emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, but this bankruptcy did not affect Extreme Technologies’ claims against Stabil Drill. On March 9, 2021, the Court lifted the automatic bankruptcy stay, and on May 12, 2021, the Court denied Stabil Drill’s motion for summary judgment of non-infringement. On May 23, 2022, the Court issued its Order on Claim Construction of the patents, adopting Extreme Technologies’ proffered interpretation on the disputed claim terms. On October 12, 2022, the Court granted Extreme’s motion for leave to add its exclusive licensee Hard Rock Solutions, LLC, as a necessary party and co-plaintiff. On February 13, 2023, the lawsuit was reassigned to United States District Judge Drew B. Tipton and United States Magistrate Judge Peter Bray. On March 27,August 29, 2023, Judge Bray entered an amended Scheduling Order. In accordance with such amended Scheduling Order, fact discovery ended on April 14, 2023,Tipton granted Extreme’s and expert discovery is scheduled to end on or before August 31, 2023. On July 5, 2023, Judge Bray issued a Memorandum and Recommendation finding thatHard Rock’s motion for summary judgment striking Stabil Drill is prohibited from asserting itsDrill’s patent invalidity affirmative defenses. OnDiscovery ended on August 2, 2023, Stabil Drill filed objections to the Court’s Order31, 2021, and the Court could possibly modify the Order based upon Stabil Drill’s filed objections.parties have fully briefed dispositive and Daubert motions. The parties are preparing this case for trial and expect a jury trial setting in early spring of 2024.

 

We are not currently involved in any other litigation.

12. SEGMENT REPORTING

 

We report our segment results based on our geographic areas of operations, North America and International. These segments have similarities from a product perspective, but management believes that due to operational differences, such as sales models and regulatory environments, information about the segments would be useful to readers of the financial statements.

 

North America includes our PDC drill bit and specialty tool sales and contract services business in the United States and Mexico, which have been aggregated
  
International includes our specialty tool rental business in the Middle East

 

Revenue and certain operating expenses are directly attributable to each segment.

 

Unallocated corporate costs primarily include corporate shared costs, such as payroll and compensation, professional fees, and rent, as well as costs associated with certain shared research and development activities.

 

Our operating segments are not evaluated using asset information. Prior periods have been restated to conform with the current year presentation. This change was made due to international revenue becoming more significant in the current year.

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

Overview

 

Superior Drilling Products, Inc. is an innovative drilling and completion tool technology company providing cost saving solutions that drive production efficiencies for the oil and natural gas drilling industry. Our headquarters and manufacturing operations are located in Vernal, Utah and we operate a repair facility in Dubai. We design, manufacture, repair and sell or rent our drilling solutions which include the patented Drill-N-Ream®Drill-N-Ream® well bore conditioning tool (“Drill-N-Ream tool” or “DNR”) and the patented Strider™ Drill String Oscillation System technology (“Strider technology” or “Strider”). In addition, the Company is a refurbisher of PDC (polycrystalline diamond compact) drill bits primarily for a leading oil field services company.companies. In our state-of-the-art drill tool fabrication facility, we also design and manufacture custom products for our customers.

 

Our strategy for growth is to leverage our expertise in drill tool technology and precision machining in order to broaden our product offerings and solutions for the oil and gas industry. We believe through our patented technologies, as well as technologies under development, that we can offer the oil and gas industry the solutions it demands to improve drilling efficiencies and reduce production costs.

 

As a result of its ISO 9000 certification, the Company is qualified to bid on projects in industries outside oil and gas. We believe that with this certification, and our history of supplying high quality parts to research and development departments operating in the aerospace industry, we can work to diversify our revenue sources outside of the oil & gas industry.

 

In May 2023, we engaged Piper Sandler & Co. as our financial advisor to investigate a range of strategic alternatives with the intent to maximize shareholder value. We have not set a timetable for the conclusion of our review of potential alternatives.

Industry Trends and Market Factors

The Russia – Ukraine conflict is a global concern. The Company does not have any direct exposure to Russia or Ukraine through its operations, employee base, investments or sanctions. The Company does not receive goods or services sourced from those countries, does not anticipate any disruption in its supply chain and has no business relationships, connections to or assets in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine. No impairments to assets have been made due to the conflict. The global oil industry has been impacted by this situation, but the Company’s operations and business in the Middle East has not been disrupted to date. The increase in oil producing activities in the United States has benefitted the Company’s operations. We are unable at this time to know the full ramifications of the Russia – Ukraine conflict and its effects on our business.

 

The Israel conflict – We have not been directly impacted by the Israel-Hamas conflict. However, the historic volatility in the Middle East, including as a result of recent events in Israel and Gaza, may result in political instability and societal disruption could reduce overall demand for oil and natural gas, potentially putting downward pressure on demand for our services and causing a reduction in our revenue.

Inflationary and/or recessionary factors relating to the oil and gas industry may directly affect the Company’s operations. The increased demand for oil and gas production has benefited the Company’s operations. The Company is not immune to the effects of inflation on its labor requirements, supply chain and costs of revenues. The Company continues to monitor these economic trends as part of its strategic forward planning.

 

The total U.S. rig count as reported by Baker Hughes as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023 was 674623 rigs, a decrease of 76142 rigs from the rig count as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022. Our North American tool revenue is closely correlated to rig count.

 

The Middle East market began to improve during 2022 after a slow rebound from the COVID-19 impact, and continues to improve through mid-2023. Totalearly-2023. Effective Q1 2023 through Q3 2023 the Middle East market has been flat and total rig count in that region was 327 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2023, was 329 compared with 303308 at the same time last year.

How We Generate our Revenue

 

We are a drilling and completion tool technology company. We generate revenue from the refurbishment, manufacturing, repair, rental and sale of drill string tools. Our manufactured products are produced in a standard manufacturing operation, even when produced to our customer’s specifications. We also earn royalty fees under certain arrangements for certain tools we sell.

 

Tool sales, rentals and other related revenue

Tool Rental: Rental revenue is recognized upon completion of the customer’s job for which the tool was rented. While the duration of the rental will vary by job and number of runs, these rentals are generally less than one month. The rental agreements are typically based on the price per run or footage drilled and do not have any minimum rental payments or term.

 

Other Related Revenue: We receive revenue from the repair of tools upon delivery of the repaired tool to the customer. We earn royalty commission revenue when our customer invoices their customer for the use of our tools.

Contract Services

Drill Bit Manufacturing and Refurbishment: We recognize revenue for our PDC drill bit services upon transfer of control, which we have determined to be upon shipment of the product. Shipping and handling costs related to refurbishing services are paid directly by the customer at the time of shipment. We also provide contract manufacturing services to customers.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b).

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

We are subject to litigation that arises from time to time in the ordinary course of our business activities. In February 2019, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit, in the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, Lafayette Division, asserting that Stabil Drill Specialties, LLC’s (“Stabil Drill”) SmoothboreTM Eccentric Reamer infringes theseveral patents of Extreme Technologies, LLC (one of our subsidiaries) on our patented Drill-N-Ream® well bore conditioning tool. TheThis lawsuit was subsequently moved from Louisiana tois pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. Additionally, on May 20, 2019, Extreme Technologies, LLC sued Short Bit & Tool Co. and Lot William Short, Jr. (“Defendants”) in the Northern District of Texas-Dallas Division for their work manufacturing the Smoothbore Eccentric Reamer for Stabil Drill. The Dallas lawsuit is stayed pending resolution of the first-filed, Houston suit. On October 1, 2020, Superior Energy Services, Stabil Drill’s parent company, filed for bankruptcy, which resulted in a brief, automatic stay of the litigation. Superior Energy Services announced on February 2, 2021, that it successfully completed its financial restructuring and emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, but this bankruptcy did not affect Extreme Technologies’ claims against Stabil Drill. On March 9, 2021, the Court lifted the automatic bankruptcy stay, and on May 12, 2021, the Court denied Stabil Drill’s motion for summary judgment of non-infringement. On May 23, 2022, the Court issued its Order on Claim Construction of the patents, adopting Extreme Technologies’ proffered interpretation on the disputed claim terms. On October 12, 2022, the Court granted Extreme’s motion for leave to add its exclusive licensee Hard Rock Solutions, LLC, as a necessary party and co-plaintiff. On February 13, 2023, the lawsuit was reassigned to United States District Judge Drew B. Tipton and United States Magistrate Judge Peter Bray.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
