KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited – In millions)

millions of U.S. dollars)

Note 1.

NOTE 1 - Description of Business and Basis of Presentation


Description of Business

On September 14, 2018, KLX Inc. (the “Former Parent” or “KLX”) created an independent, publicly-traded company through a spin-off of its Energy Services Group business to Former Parent’s stockholders (the “Spin-Off”).  As a result of the Spin-Off,


KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “KLXE” or “KLX Energy Services”) now operates as an independent, publicly-traded company.

The Company is a growth-oriented provider of completion, intervention and productiondiversified oilfield services and products to the majorleading onshore oil and natural gas producing regionsexploration and production (“E&P”) companies operating in both conventional and unconventional plays in all of the active major basins throughout the United States.

The Company delivers mission critical oilfield services focused on drilling, completion, production and intervention activities for the most technically demanding wells in over 50 service and support facilities located throughout the United States.


The Company offers a complementary suite of proprietary products and specialized services that is supported by technically skilled personnel and a broad portfolio of innovative in-house manufacturing, repair and maintenance capabilities. KLXE’s primary services include coiled-tubing, directional drilling, frac rentals, fishing, pressure control, wireline, rig-assisted snubbing, fluid pumping, flowback, testing and well control services. KLXE’s primary rentals and products include hydraulic fracturing stacks, blow out preventers, tubulars, downhole tools, dissolvable plugs, composite plugs and accommodation units.

On July 24, 2020, KLXE stockholders approved an amendment to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of KLXE (the “Reverse Stock Split Amendment”) to effect a reverse stock split of KLXE common stock at a ratio within a range of 1-for-5 and 1-for-10 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), as determined by KLXE’s board of directors (the “Board”). The Board subsequently resolved to implement the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1-for-5.

On July 28, 2020, KLX Energy Services, Krypton Intermediate, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of KLXE, Krypton Merger Sub, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of KLXE (“Merger Sub”), and Quintana Energy Services Inc. (“QES”) completed the previously announced acquisition of QES, by means of a merger of Merger Sub with and into QES, with QES surviving the merger as a subsidiary of KLXE (the “Merger”). On July 28, 2020, immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, the Reverse Stock Split Amendment became effective and thereby effectuated the 1-for-5 Reverse Stock Split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock.

Basis of Presentation

Prior to the Spin-Off on September 14, 2018, the Company’s


The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements were derived from the Former Parent’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accounting records as if it was operated on a stand-alone basis and werehave been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). All intercompany transactions and account balances within the Company have been eliminated.

The condensed consolidated statements of (loss) earnings for periods prior to the Spin-Off reflect allocations of general corporate expenses from the Former Parent, including, but not limited to, executive management, finance, legal, information technology, human resources, employee benefits administration, treasury, risk management, procurement and other shared services. The allocations were made on a direct usage basis when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenues generated, costs incurred, headcount or other measures. Management of the Company considers these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services by, or the benefits provided to, the Company. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense the Company would have incurred as a stand-alone company for the periods presented. Actual costs that may have been incurred if the Company had been a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, what functions were outsourced or performed by employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology and infrastructure.

Former Parent Company Investment – Former Parent company investment in the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018 represents Former Parent’s historical investment in the Company, the net effect of cost allocations from transactions with Former Parent and net transfers of cash and assets from Former Parent. See Note 6 for a further description of the transactions between the Company and Former Parent.

Financial Statement Preparation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. All adjustments which, in the opinion of the Company’s management, are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods shown are of a normal recurring nature and have been reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year 2020 or for any future period.

The information included in these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 24, 2020.


7

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Table of Contents


The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements present the consolidated KLXE and QES financial position as of October 31, 2020, and the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2020 includes an entire quarter of combined results for both legacy KLXE and legacy QES. The condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended October 31, 2020includes QES’s results for the period July 29, 2020 through October 31, 2020.

Segment Reporting

The Company changed its presentation of reportable segments related to the allocation of corporate overhead costs to reflect the presentation used by the chief operational decision-making group (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the Company’s reportable segments and to assess segment performance. Historically, and through July 31, 2020, the Company’s total corporate overhead costs were allocated and reported within each reportable segment. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company changed the corporate overhead allocation methodology to only include corporate costs incurred on behalf of its operating segments, which includes accounts payable, accounts receivable, insurance, audit, supply chain, health, safety and environmental and others. The remaining unallocated corporate costs are reported as a reconciling item in the Company’s segment reporting disclosures. See Note 14 for additional information. As a result of the change in presentation, the total corporate overhead costs allocated for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020, to the Company’s 3 reportable segments decreased $11.2 and $54.6, respectively. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, the total corporate overhead costs allocated to the Company’s 3 reportable segments decreased $13.6 and $44.6, respectively.

In conjunction with the change in presentation of reportable segments, the Company also changed its presentation of segment assets. Historically, and through July 31, 2020, the Company’s corporate assets were allocated and reported within each reportable segment. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company changed the presentation of total assets to present corporate assets separately as a reconciling item in its segment reporting disclosures. As a result of the change in presentation, the total corporate assets allocated to the Company’s 3 reportable segments decreased by $88.5 and $139.1 as of October 31, 2020 and January 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company also changed its presentation of service offering revenues. Historically, and through July 31, 2020, the Company’s service offering revenues included revenues from the completion, production and intervention market types within segment reporting. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company changed the presentation of its service offering revenues by separately reporting a drilling market type revenue, which includes directional drilling, drilling accommodation units and related drilling support services. The reclassifications are reported in the Company’s segment reporting disclosures to reflect the drilling revenue change and use of the information by the Company’s CODM. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020, the total drilling revenues reported within segment reporting was $15.3 and $26.9, respectively. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, the total drilling revenues reported within segment reporting was $11.0 and $38.5, respectively.

These current period changes in the Company’s corporate allocation method and service offering revenue disclosures have no net impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The change better reflects the CODM’s philosophy on assessing performance and allocating resources as well as improves the Company’s comparability to its peer group.

Correction of Errors

During the three months ended October 31, 2020, the Company determined that accumulated depreciation was overstated following the impairment of certain property and equipment in prior periods. As a result, a prior period correction of $3.7 to reduce accumulated depreciation and depreciation expense was recorded during the three months ended October 31, 2020, of which $2.3 relates to depreciation expense recognized in the three months ended July 31, 2020 for assets impaired as of April 30, 2020.

Table of Contents

In addition, the Company identified a $2.0 gain on termination of leased vehicles which related to the three months ended July 31, 2020 but was recorded in the three months ended October 31, 2020. There was no impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 related to this error.

The Company concluded the errors were not material to previously issued financial statements.

NOTE 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In January 2017,March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations. This update clarifiesAccounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (“Topic 848”): Facilitation of the definitionEffects of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses.Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU isprovides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The amendments in this ASU are elective and apply to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning afterall entities, if elected, through December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption31, 2022. While the exact impact of ASU 2017-01 didthis standard is not known, the guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This ASU is intended to simplify aspects of income tax approach for intraperiod tax allocations when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items, and to provide a general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year. Topic 740 also provides guidance to simplify how an entity recognizes a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax, and evaluations of when step ups in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of a business combination. Companies should also reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The guidance is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning February 1, 2022. While the exact impact of this standard is not known, the guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)(“Topic 230”): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, related towhich addresses how certain cash receipts and payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. These cash flow issues include debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions and separately identifiable cash flows. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied retrospectively. The Company does not expect a material impact upon adoption of this ASU to its condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows are not impacted by the eight issues listed above.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. The ASU includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including that excess tax benefits and shortfalls be recorded as income tax benefit or expense in the statement of earnings, rather than equity, and requires excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation to be classified in cash flows from operations. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The adoption of this ASU2016-15 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.


In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU is intended to update the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. This update improves financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope by using the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The new accounting standard introduces the CECL methodology for estimating allowances for credit losses. The Company is an oilfield service company and as of October 31, 2020 had a third-party accounts receivable balance, net of allowance, of $49.4. Topic 326 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), which supersedes ASC Topic 840, Leases, and creates a new topic, ASCLeases. Topic 842 Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a lease asset for all leases, including operating leases, with a term greater than 12 months on its balance sheet. The update also expands the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. ASU 2016-02Topic 842 will be applied using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. In November 2019, the FASB deferred the effective date for implementation of ASU 2016-02Topic 842 by one year and, in June 2020, FASB deferred the effective date by an additional year. The guidance under ASU 2016-02Topic 842 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 20202021 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021.2022. Earlier adoption is permitted. To assess the impact of this guidance, the Company has established a cross functional implementation project team and is currently in the process of accumulating and evaluating all the necessary information required to properly account for its lease portfolio under the new standard. The Company is in the process of developing its new accounting policies and determining the potential aggregate impact this guidance is likely to have on its condensed consolidated financial statements as of its adoption date.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts

NOTE 3 - Business Combinations

QES Merger

On July 28, 2020, the Company completed the Merger with Customers, which updated the guidance in ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition. The core principleQES, a diversified provider of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods oroilfield services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should identify the contract(s) with a customer, identify the

The Merger purchase price allocate the transaction pricewas approximately $44.4 with cash paid to the performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date for implementationsettle QES debt, comprised of ASU 2014-09 by one year and during 2016, the FASB issued various related accounting standard updates, which clarified revenue accounting principles and provided supplemental adoption guidance. The guidance under ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. To assess the impact of this guidance, the Company established a cross functional implementation project team, inventoried its revenue streams and contracts with customers and applied the principles of the guidance against a selection of contracts to assist in the determination of potential revenue accounting differences. No individually significant implementation matters were identified, and revenue is recognized on a “point-in-time” basis for product revenues and over time for service revenues under the new standard, which is consistent with previous practice. The Company implemented internal controls, policies and processes to comply with the new standard. The Company adopted ASC Topic 606 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the modified retrospective method of adoption, which resulted in no changes to the opening balance sheet as of February 1, 2019. Prior period statements of (loss) earnings will remain unchanged.

Amortization expense associated with intangible assets was $0.0 and $1.0 for the three months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $3.8 and $2.9 for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Due to the accelerated amortization of intangible assets, the Company does not expect to recognize future material amortization expense related to intangible assets. During the nine months ended October 31, 2020, accelerated amortization of $2.7 was recognized related to the Company’s customer contracts and relationships long-lived intangible. Actual future amortization expense may be different due to future acquisitions, impairments, changes in amortization periods or other factors.

Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset has decreased below its carrying value. The oilfield service industry experienced an abrupt deterioration in industry conditions,demand during the second half of 2019, which accelerated throughhas continued into 2020. During the endfirst quarter of 2020, the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic emerged and applied significant downward pressure on the global economy and oil demand and prices, leading North American operators to announce significant cuts to planned 2020 capital expenditures. The combination of the COVID-19 pandemic and supply concerns has driven a steep drop in oil prices, leading to decreases in demand for the Company’s third quarter, was driven by a sharp sequential quarterly decline in U.S. land rig count and an unprecedented decline in active frac spreads from the second quarter to the third quarter. In fact, there was a significant sequential decline in hydraulic fracturing activity during each month of the third quarter. The decline in exploration & production activity resulted in lower demand levelsservices and lower current and expected revenues for the Company. As

Based on the impairment indicators above, the Company performed a result,goodwill and long-lived asset impairment analysis during the three months ended April 30, 2020. The results of the impairment analysis concluded that the carrying amount of the long-lived assets exceeded the relative fair values of two of the reporting units asset groups. As a result, the Company recorded a $180.4 long-lived asset impairment charge, $39.2 related to intangible assets and $141.2 related to property and equipment, which is included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2019,2020. This charge reflects $91.3 and $89.1 of the long-lived assets attributable to the Southwest and Northeast/Mid-Con segments, respectively.

Determining fair value requires the use of estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates, operating profit margins, weighted average cost of capital, terminal growth rates, future market share and future market conditions, among others. The Company’s cash flow projections were a significant input into the April 30, 2020 fair values. See Note 10 for additional information regarding the fair value determination. If the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment test and acontinues to be unable to achieve projected results or long-term projections are adjusted downward, it could negatively impact future valuations of the Company’s long-lived asset recoverability test.

The valuation of the Company and its reportable segments’ goodwill impairment test was estimated using the guideline public company analysis and the discounted cash flow analysis, which were equally weighted in the fair value analysis. See Note 910 for additional information regarding the fair value determination. The results of the goodwill impairment test as of October 31, 2019,April 30, 2020 indicated that goodwill was impaired because the carrying value of two of the Rocky Mountains reporting unitsunit exceeded theits relative fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $45.8$28.3 goodwill impairment charge, which is included in the condensed consolidated statements of (loss) earningsoperations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019. The charges reflect2020.

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and purchased intangibles subject$2.7 reflecting accelerated amortization to amortization, are tested for impairment when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered. An impairment loss is recognized when the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset (or group of assets) is less than its carrying amount. Any required impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value and is recorded as a reduction inreduce the carrying value of its customer relationships intangible. The accelerated amortization charge is included in the related asset and a charge to operating results. Based on the impairment indicators above, the Company performed a long-lived asset impairment analysis and concluded that the undiscounted cash flowscondensed consolidated statements of the long-lived assets exceeded the carrying amount of each segment’s asset group. The sum of the undiscounted cash flows of the Southwest, Rocky Mountains and Northeast/Mid-Con long-lived assets exceeded the carrying value by approximately 20.7%, 64.4% and 32.9%, respectively, as of October 15, 2019. As a result, the Company determined that its long-lived assets were not impaired as of October 31, 2019.

As of October 31, 2019,2020, the Company also had a $100.0 asset-based revolving credit facility pursuant to a senior secured credit agreement dated August 10, 2018 (the “ABL Facility”). The ABL Facility became effective on September 14, 2018 the date of the Spin-Off, and matures in September 2023. On October 22, 2018, the ABL Facility was amended primarily to permit the Company to issue the Notes and acquire Motley Services, LLC (“Motley”) and the definition of the required ratio (as defined in the ABL Facility) was also amended as a result of the Notes issuance.

NOTE 10 - Fair Value Information


All financial instruments are carried at amounts that approximate estimated fair value. The fair value is the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. Assets measured at fair value are categorized based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations.


Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.


Level 2 – quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.


Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

As such, the Company performed a long-lived asset impairment analysis and concluded that the undiscounted cash flows of the long-lived assets exceeded the carrying amount of each segment’s asset group. As a result, the Company determined that its long-lived assets were not impaired as of October 31, 2019, and the carrying value of long-lived assets continues to represent its fair value.

Lease Commitments


Environmental Regulations & Liabilities

The Company finances its useis subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations that establish standards and requirements for the protection of certain facilities and equipment under committed lease arrangements provided by various institutions. Since the termsenvironment. The Company continues to monitor the status of these arrangements meetlaws and regulations. However, the accounting definitionCompany cannot predict the future impact of operating lease arrangements,such laws and regulations, as well as standards and requirements, on its business, which are subject to change and can have retroactive effectiveness. Currently, the aggregate sumCompany has not been fined, cited or notified of any environmental violations or liabilities that would have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial statement position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources. However, management does recognize that by the very nature of its business, material costs could be incurred in the future minimum lease paymentsto maintain compliance. The amount of such future expenditures is not reflected ondeterminable due to several factors, including the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Atunknown magnitude of possible regulation or liabilities, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be required, the determination of the Company’s liability in proportion to other responsible parties and the extent to which such expenditures are recoverable from insurance or indemnification.

Litigation

During the year ended January 31, 2020, the Company discovered a credit card theft of approximately $2.6 (which is included in cost of sales for the year ended January 31, 2020) and promptly reported the theft to its insurers and law enforcement. The Company also filed suit against several third parties to recover damages related to the theft. During the three months ended October 31, 2019,2020, the Company received an insurance reimbursement of $2.5 from insurance providers (which is included in cost of sales for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020). The Company implemented additional expenditure controls to reduce the likelihood of similar thefts in the future, minimum lease payments under these arrangements approximated $70.6, of which $22.9 is related to long-term real estate leases.

Litigationsuch as daily limits on all fuel cards and additional credit card activity reviews by management.


The Company is a defendant in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business, the outcomes of which, in the opinion of management, neither individually nor in the aggregate are likely to result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.


Indemnities, Commitments and Guarantees

During its normalordinary course of business, the Company has made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility or lease, andas well as indemnities to other parties to certain acquisition agreements. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies and, in certain cases, is indefinite. Many of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees provide for limitations on the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. However, the Company is unable to estimate the maximum amount of liability related to its indemnities, commitments and guarantees because such liabilities are contingent upon the occurrence of events that are not reasonably determinable. Management believes that any liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees would not be material to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, no significant amounts have been accrued for indemnities, commitments and guarantees.

NOTE 12 - Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation


The Company has a Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) under which its Compensation Committeethe compensation committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) has the authority to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other forms of equity basedequity-based or equity relatedequity-related awards.

Table of Contents

Compensation cost for the LTIP grants is generally recorded on a straight-line basis over the vesting term of the shares based on the grant date value using the closing trading price.


Compensation cost recognized during the three and nine months ended October 31, 20192020 and 2018 primarily2019 related to grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units granted or approved by ourthe Compensation Committee and Former Parent, respectively. The vesting of all unvested sharesCommittee. Certain grants of restricted stock wasto directors and management accelerated uponin connection with the sale of our Former Parent to the Boeing CompanyMerger on October 9, 2018,July 28, 2020, resulting in approximately $10.7$15.1 of share basedstock-based compensation expense during the threenine months ended October 31, 2018.2020. As a result, share basedstock-based compensation was $4.6$0.5 and $14.1$4.6 for the three months ended October 31, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively, and $13.6$17.2 and $19.2$13.6 for the nine months ended October 31, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively. Unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock awards made by the Company was $52.1$4.5 at October 31, 2019.

2020.


As of the date of the QES acquisition, each unvested QES restricted stock unit award was converted into a replacement 0.0969 KLXE restricted stock unit award. Approximately 2.0 million shares of QES common stock subject to awards outstanding were converted to 0.2 million shares of common stock assumed by KLXE.

The Company also has established a qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), the terms of which allow for qualified employees (as defined in the Plan)ESPP) to participate in the purchase of designated shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 85% of the closing price on the last business day of each semi-annual stock purchase period. The fair value of the employee purchase rights represents the difference between the closing price of the Company’s shares on the date of purchase and the purchase price of the shares. CompensationBecause the ESPP did not have enough shares reserved to satisfy outstanding options to purchase during the offering period ended June 30, 2020, the Company refunded participants’ contributions. In addition, the Company agreed with QES to suspend the ESPP due to the Merger. As a result, compensation cost was $0.0 and $0.1 for the three months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $0.0 and $0.2 for the nine months ended October 31, 2018,2020 and relates2019, respectively. The Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Former Parent’s employee stock purchase plan. Former Parent’s final option period endedESPP at the Company’s annual meeting on June 30, 2018; as a result, thereJuly 24, 2020, for an increase of 0.3 million shares to the ESPP’s share reserve.
NOTE 13 - Income Taxes

Income tax expense was no compensation cost for the three months ended October 31, 2018. The Company’s first option period began on January 1, 2019. Compensation cost was $0.1$0.2 and $0.2$0.3 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, respectively.

Note 12.Income Taxes

Income2020, respectively, and was comprised primarily of state and local taxes, compared to income tax benefit wasof $0.5 and $0.1 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, respectively as compared to income tax expense of $0 and $0.1 for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2018, respectively. The Company has established a valuation allowance against the majority of its deferred tax balances with a net deferred tax liability remaining related to the Red Bone acquisition. Due to the fact the Company has a valuation allowance against the majority of its deferred tax balances, with the exception of Red Bone,and as a result, it was unable to recognize a tax benefit at the federal statutory rate of 21% on its year to date losses.

Note 13.


In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments have enacted or are contemplating measures to provide aid and economic stimulus. These measures may include deferring the due dates of tax payments or other changes to their income and non-income-based tax laws. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, which was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the United States, includes measures to assist companies, including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws. The Company has deferred the employer portion of FICA tax payments of $2.9 as of October 31, 2020. This deferral is included in other non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. These payments are due in two installments: half on December 31, 2021; and half on December 31, 2022. The Company continues to monitor additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service and others.
NOTE 14 - Segment Reporting


The Company is organized on a geographic basis. The Company’s reportable segments, which are also its operating segments, are comprised of the Southwest Region (the Permian Basin and the Eagle Ford)Ford Shale), the Rocky Mountains Region (the Bakken, Williston, DJ, Uinta, Powder River, Piceance and Niobrara basins) and the Northeast/Mid-Con Region (the Marcellus and Utica Shale as well as the Mid-Continent STACK and SCOOP and Haynesville)Haynesville Shale). The segments regularly report their results of operations and make requests

(1)

Operating (loss) earnings include an allocation of employee benefits and general and administrative costs primarily based on each segment’s percentage of total revenues for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019 and 2018.

(1) Historically, and through July 31, 2020, the Companys total corporate overhead costs were allocated and reported within each reportable segment. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company changed the corporate overhead allocation methodology to include corporate costs incurred on behalf of its operating segments, which includes accounts payable, accounts receivable, insurance, audit, supply chain, health, safety and environmental and others. The remaining unallocated corporate costs are reported as a reconciling item. The change will better reflect the CODM’s philosophy on assessing performance and allocating resources, as well as improve comparability to the Companys peer group.

(2)

Operating loss for the three and nine month periods ended October 31, 2019 includes a goodwill impairment charge of $45.8, of which $22.4 was attributable to the Southwest segment and $23.4 was attributable to the Northeast/Mid-Con segment.

(2) Operating loss for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2020 includes impairment and other charges of $213.1 which is comprised of a goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charge of $208.7, of which $91.3 was attributable to the Southwest segment, $28.3 was attributable to the Rocky Mountains segment and $89.1 was attributable to the Northeast/Mid-Con segment, and a lease termination charge of $4.4, of which $2.3 was attributable to Corporate and other and $1.4 and $0.7 was attributable to the Southwest and Northeast/Mid-con segments, respectively.

NOTE 15 - Net (Loss) EarningsLoss Per Common Share


On July 28, 2020, immediately prior to consummation of the Merger, the Reverse Stock Split Amendment became effective and thereby effectuated the 1-for-5 Reverse Stock Split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock.

Basic net (loss) earningsloss per common share is computed using the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period and includes 1.7 shares issued in a subsidiary company to effect the Red Bone acquisition, which become exchangeable for KLXE common stock over specified dates between the acquisition date and September 19, 2021. Such shares are included in the computation of basic weighted average common shares from the date of the acquisition.period. Diluted net (loss) earningsloss per common share is computed by using the weighted average common shares outstanding, including the dilutive effect of restricted shares based on an average share price during the period. For the three months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, 0.3 and 2018, 2.2 and 0.10.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, and for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, 0.5 million and 2018, 4.7 and no0.9 million shares, respectively, were excluded from the determination of diluted net (loss) earningsloss per common share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The computations of basic and diluted net (loss) earningsloss per share for the three and nine months ended October 31, 20192020 and 20182019 are as follows:

Company Overview

We are a leading provider The previously announced merger of completion, interventionKrypton Merger Sub, Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of KLXE ("Merger Sub"), with and production services and products (our “product service lines” or “PSLs”) tointo QES, with QES surviving the major onshore oil and gas producing regions of the United States. We offer a range of differentiated, complementary technical services and related tools and equipment in challenging environments that provide “mission critical” solutions for our customers throughout the life cycle of the well.

We serve many of the leading companies engaged in the exploration and development of North American onshore conventional and unconventional oil and natural gas reserves. Our customers are primarily independent major oil and gas companies. We actively support these customer operations from over 35 principal service facilities located in the key major shale basins. We operate in three segments on a geographic basis, including the Southwest Region (the Permian Basin and the Eagle Ford), the Rocky Mountains Region (the Bakken, Williston, DJ, Uinta, Powder River, Piceance and Niobrara basins) and the Northeast/Mid-Con Region (the Marcellus and Utica as well as the Mid-Continent STACK and SCOOP and Haynesville). Our revenues, operating profits and identifiable assets are primarily attributable to these three reportable geographic segments. However, while we manage our business based upon these regional groupings, our assets and our technical personnel are deployed on a dynamic basis across all of our service facilities to optimize utilization and profitability.

We work with our customers to provide engineered solutions across the entire lifecycle of the well, by streamlining operations, reducing non-productive time and developing cost effective solutions and customized tools for our customers’ most challenging service needs, which include technically complex unconventional wells requiring extended reach horizontal laterals with greater completion intensity per well. Revenue growth continues to reflect increases in the number of new customers served and a significant increase in the breadth of services provided to existing customers as compared with the same period in the prior year.

We offer a variety of targeted services that are differentiated by the technical competence and experience of our field service engineers and their deployment of a broad portfolio of specialized tools and equipment. Our innovative and adaptive approach to proprietary tool design has been employed by our in-house research and development (“R&D”) organization and, in selected instances, by our technology partners, to develop tools covered by 18 patents and 20 U.S. and foreign pending patent applications as well as 21 additional proprietary tools. Our technology partners include manufacturing and engineering companies that produce tools, which we design and utilize in our service offerings.

We utilize outside, dedicated manufacturers to produce our products, which, in many cases, our engineers have developed from input and requests from our customers and customer-facing managers, thereby maintaining the integrity of our intellectual property while avoiding manufacturing startup and maintenance costs. We have found that doing so leverages our technical strengths as well as those of our technology partners. These PSLs are modest in cost to the customer relative to other well construction expenditures but have a high cost of failure and are, therefore, “mission critical” to our customers’ outcomes. We believe our customers have come to depend on our decades of combined field experience to execute on some of the most challenging problems they face. We believe we are well positionedmerger as a company for continued growth, assubsidiary of KLXE (the "Merger") closed on July 28, 2020.

Company History

KLX Energy Services was initially formed from the combination and integration of seven private oilfield service companies acquired over theduring 2013 through 2014 time period.and 2014. Each of the acquired businesses was regional in nature and brought one or two specific service capabilities to KLX Energy Services. Once the acquisitions were completed, we undertook a comprehensive integration of these businesses to align our services, our people and our assets across all the geographic regions where we maintain a presence. We established a matrix management organizational structure where each regional manager has the resources to provide a complete suite of services supported by technical experts in our primary service categories. In November 2018, we expanded our completion and intervention service offerings through the acquisition ofacquired Motley Services, LLC (“Motley”) and, during 2019, we acquired Tecton Energy Services (“Tecton”) and Red Bone Energy Services LLC (“Red Bone”). We recently acquired QES during the second quarter of 2020 pursuant to the Merger and, by doing so, helped establish KLXE as an industry leading provider of asset-light oilfield solutions across the full well lifecycle, including drilling, completion, production and intervention services and products (our “product service lines” or “PSLs”) to the major onshore oil and gas producing regions of the United States.


On July 26, 2020, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) approved a 1-for-5 reverse stock split to stockholders that became effective at 12:01 a.m. on July 28, 2020 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On July 28, 2020, we successfully completed the all-stock Merger with QES. At the time of the closing, the holders of QES common stock received 0.0969 shares of KLXE common stock in exchange for each share of QES common stock held. KLXE and QES stockholders owned approximately 59% and 41%, respectively, of the equity of the combined company on a premierfully-diluted basis. As a result of the Merger, our Board is now comprised of nine directors, consisting of five directors designated by KLXE and four directors designated by QES. Additionally, Christopher J. Baker, the former President and Chief Executive Officer of QES, now serves as our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Keefer M. Lehner, the former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of QES, now serves as our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

The Merger of KLXE and QES provides increased scale to serve a blue-chip customer base across the onshore oil and gas basins in the United States. The Merger combines two strong company cultures comprised of highly talented teams with shared commitments to safety, performance, customer service and profitability. The combination leverages two of the largest fleets of coiled tubing and wireline assets, with KLXE becoming a leading provider of large diameter coiled tubing further enhancing our completion tools business. Duringand wireline services and one of the fourthlargest independent providers of directional drilling to the U.S. market.

After closing the Merger, the Company has been focused on integrating personnel, facilities, processes and systems across all functional areas of the organization. As of October 31, 2020, the Company has
24

implemented approximately $40.0 of annualized cost savings. The Company has increased the annualized run-rate cost saving estimate by $6.0 and now expects to generate annualized cost savings of $46.0. We are diligently focused on generating cost savings from the Merger and have realized such savings through eliminating KLXE's legacy corporate headquarters in Wellington, Florida, rationalizing associated corporate functions to Houston, and capturing operational synergies in the areas of personnel, facilities and rolling stock. The Company expects the remaining cost synergies to be fully implemented as of the end of the first quarter of 2018, we successfully completed the integrationfiscal 2021 on an annualized basis, several months ahead of the Motley business. On March 15, 2019,timing at the announcement of the Merger. Additional synergies will be realized as management continues to rationalize redundant Houston and operational facilities and align common roles, processes and systems throughout each function and region. The Merger also enhances the Company’s ability to effect further industry consolidation. Looking ahead, the Company acquired Tecton Energy Services (“Tecton”), aexpects to pursue strategic, accretive consolidation opportunities that further strengthen the Company’s competitive positioning and capital structure and drive efficiencies, accelerate growth and create long‑term stockholder value.

Company Overview

We serve many of the leading provider of flowback, drill-out and production testing services, operating primarilycompanies engaged in the greater Rocky Mountains. On March 19, 2019, the Company acquired Red Bone Services LLC (“Red Bone”), a premier providerexploration and development of oilfield services primarilyonshore conventional and unconventional oil and natural gas reserves in the United States. Our customers are primarily large independent and major oil and gas companies. We currently support these customer operations from over 50 service facilities located in the key major shale basins. We operate in three segments on a geographic basis, including the Southwest Region (the Permian Basin and the Eagle Ford Shale), the Rocky Mountains Region (the Bakken, Williston, DJ, Uinta, Powder River, Piceance and Niobrara basins) and the Northeast/Mid-Con Region (the Marcellus and Utica Shale as well as the Mid-Continent providing fishing, non-frac high pressure pumping, thru-tubingSTACK and certain other services. DuringSCOOP and Haynesville Shale). Our revenues, operating (losses) earnings and identifiable assets are primarily attributable to these three reportable geographic segments. While we manage our business based upon these geographic groupings, our assets and our technical personnel are deployed on a dynamic basis across all of our service facilities to optimize utilization and profitability.

We work with our customers to provide engineered solutions across the second quarter of 2019, we successfully completed the integrationlifecycle of the Red Bone business.well by streamlining operations, reducing non-productive time and developing cost effective solutions and customized tools for our customers’ most challenging service needs, including their most technically complex extended reach horizontal wells. We believe future revenue growth opportunities will continue to be driven by increases in the number of new customers served and the breadth of services we offer to existing and prospective customers.

We offer a variety of targeted services that are differentiated by the technical competence and experience of our field service engineers and their deployment of a broad portfolio of specialized tools and proprietary equipment. Our innovative and adaptive approach to proprietary tool design has been employed by our in-house research and development (“R&D”) organization and, in selected instances, by our technology partners to develop tools covered by 23 patents and 17 pending patent applications, which we believe differentiates us from our regional competitors and also allows us to deliver more focused service and better outcomes in our specialized services than larger national competitors that do not discretely dedicate their resources to the services we provide.

We utilize contract manufacturers to produce our products, which, in many cases, our engineers have endeavoreddeveloped from input and requests from our customers and customer-facing managers, thereby maintaining the integrity of our intellectual property while avoiding manufacturing startup and maintenance costs. This approach leverages our technical strengths, as well as those of our technology partners. These services and related products are modest in cost to the customer relative to other well construction expenditures but have a high cost of failure and are, therefore, mission critical to our customers’ outcomes. We believe our customers have come to depend on our decades of field experience to execute on some of the most challenging problems they face. We believe we are well positioned as a company to service customers when they are drilling and completing complex wells, and remediating both newer and older legacy wells.

We endeavor to create a “next generation”next generation oilfield services company in terms of management controls, processes and operating metrics, and have driven these processes down through the operating management
25

structure in every region, which we believe differentiates us from many of our competitors. This allows us to offer our customers in all of our geographic regions discrete, comprehensive and differentiated services that leverage both the technical expertise of our skilled engineers and our in-house R&D team.


We invest in innovative technology and equipment designed for modern production techniques that increase efficiencies and production for our customers. North American unconventional onshore wells are increasingly characterized by extended lateral lengths, tighter spacing between hydraulic fracturing stages, increased cluster density and heightened proppant loads. Drilling and completion activities for wells in unconventional resource plays are extremely complex, and downhole challenges and operating costs increase as the complexity and lateral length of these wells increase. For these reasons, exploration and production (“E&P&P”) companies with complex wells increasingly prefer service providers with the scale and resources to deliver best-in-class solutions that evolve in real time with the technology used for extraction. We believe we offer best-in-class service execution at the wellsite and innovative downhole technologies, positioning us to benefit from our ability to service the most technically complex wells where the potential for increased operating leverage is high due to the large number of stages per well.

Segment Reporting

The Company changed its presentation of reportable segments related to the allocation of corporate overhead costs to reflect the presentation used by the CODM to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the Company’s reportable segments and to assess segment performance. Historically, and through July 31, 2020, the Company’s total corporate overhead costs were allocated and reported within each reportable segment. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company changed the corporate overhead allocation methodology to only include corporate costs incurred on behalf of its operating segments, which includes accounts payable, accounts receivable, insurance, audit, supply chain, health, safety and environmental and others. The remaining unallocated corporate costs are reported as a reconciling item in the Company’s segment reporting disclosures. See Note 14 for additional information. As a result of the change in presentation, the total corporate overhead costs allocated for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020, to the Company’s 3 reportable segments decreased $11.2 and $54.6, respectively. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, the total corporate overhead costs allocated to the Company’s 3 reportable segments decreased $13.6 and $44.6, respectively.

In conjunction with the change in presentation of reportable segments, the Company also changed its presentation of segment assets. Historically, and through July 31, 2020, the Company’s corporate assets were allocated and reported within each reportable segment. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company changed the presentation of total assets to present corporate assets separately as a reconciling item in its segment reporting disclosures. As a result of the change in presentation, the total corporate assets allocated to the Company’s 3 reportable segments decreased by $88.5 and $139.1 as of October 31, 2020 and January 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company also changed its presentation of service offering revenues. Historically, and through July 31, 2020, the Company’s service offering revenues included revenues from the completion, production and intervention market types within segment reporting. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company changed the presentation of its service offering revenues by separately reporting a drilling market type revenue, which includes directional drilling, drilling accommodation units and related drilling support services. The reclassifications are reported in the Company’s segment reporting disclosures to reflect the drilling revenue change and use of the information by the Company’s CODM. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020, the total drilling revenues reported within segment reporting was $15.3 and $26.9, respectively. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, the total drilling revenues reported within segment reporting was $11.0 and $38.5, respectively.

These current period changes in the Company’s corporate allocation method and service offering revenue disclosures have no net impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The change better reflects the CODM’s philosophy on assessing performance and allocating resources as well as improves the Company’s comparability to its peer group.

Recent Trends and Outlook

Demand for services in additionthe oil and natural gas industry is cyclical and subject to sudden and significant volatility. For example, the oilfield service industry experienced an abrupt deterioration in demand during the second half of 2019, which has continued into 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic emerged and continues to apply significant downward pressure on the global economy and oil demand and prices. National and global demand for oil has been volatile due to uncertainty around the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led North American operators to announce significant cuts to planned 2020 capital expenditures and caused continued acceleration of upstream oil and gas bankruptcies.

The reduced activity levels have led to a plunging North America onshore rig count, which fell by 68% for the first half of 2020. For the three months ended October 31, 2020, rig count increased by a total of 44 rigs, but for the nine months ended October 31, 2020, rig count decreased by a total of 480 rigs.

The extent and duration of the continued global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is unknown. While economic activity has increased from the April 2020 lows, concerns about a COVID-19 resurgence have slowed the pace of a full return of social and commercial activity. The combination of the COVID-19 pandemic and supply concerns has driven a steep drop in oil prices, leading to decreases in demand for the Company’s services. WTI decreased by approximately $18.38, or 34.0%, to $35.64 per barrel (“Bbl”) as of October 31, 2020, compared to the closing price on October 31, 2019 of $54.02 per Bbl. Subsequent to October 31, 2020, prices have increased based on the announcement of potential vaccines for COVID-19, but there is no certainty that they will not experience extreme volatility again.

Market demand for our services during the third quarter of 2020 remained challenged due to the COVID-19 pandemic and macro supply and demand concerns. There has been far too much uncertainty to predict the timing of a recovery. However, our completions services have been the first to reflect an improvement in market activity, as operators have focused on completing their backlog of drilled uncompleted wells from earlier in the year. We began to see an uptick in activity at the end of the second quarter and the third quarter delivered notable increases in scheduled work, which drove the demand for coiled tubing, technical services and rentals services.

An increase in completions activity during the third quarter has driven the market rebound, while drilling activity has been slower to rebound with rig count bottoming in August 2020 and rebounding 52 rigs, or 22.8%, subsequently. We believe our diverse product and service offerings uniquely positions KLXE to respond to a rapidly evolving marketplace where we can provide a comprehensive suite of engineered solutions for our customers with one call and one master services agreement.

Oil and natural gas prices are expected to continue to be volatile as a result of the near term demand instability, the ongoing COVID-19 outbreaks and as changes in oil and natural gas inventories, industry demand and global and national economic performance are reported. Significant factors that are likely to affect commodity prices in current and future periods include, but are not limited to: the extent and duration of price reductions and production instability by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and all other oil producing nations (“OPEC+”) and other oil exporting nations; the effect of U.S. energy, monetary and trade policies on the economy and demand; U.S. and global economic conditions; U.S. and global political and economic developments; the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 outbreaks; and conditions in the U.S. oil and gas industry and the resulting demand and pricing for domestic land oilfield services.

If the current pricing environment for crude oil does not improve, our customers are expected to further reduce their capital expenditures, causing additional declines in the demand for, and prices of, our services, which would adversely affect our future results of operations, cash flows and financial position. Additionally, the decrease in oil and natural gas prices has adversely affected our customers and resulted in a decrease in the creditworthiness of some E&P operators. We carefully select our customers and believe we have a high
27

quality customer focus on execution rather than price.base. However, if current conditions persist, there is no assurance that we will not experience losses in the future or delays in collecting our receivables.

The reduction in oil prices to current levels and the ongoing effects of the global COVID-19 outbreaks resulted in significant market instability. The potential for a prolonged reemergence of or further spikes in COVID-19 outbreaks may result in a global recession, with the possibility of further bankruptcies of E&P companies and a significant decline in demand and prices for oilfield services during 2020. We have been awarded 18 U.S. patents, have 20 U.S.taken, and foreign pending patent applicationsare continuing to take, steps to reduce costs, including reductions in capital expenditures, as well as other workforce rightsizing and utilize 21 additional proprietary tools, someongoing cost initiatives.

How We Generate Revenue and the Costs of which have been developed in conjunction with our technology partners, which we believe differentiates us from our regional competition and also allows usConducting Our Business

Our business strategy seeks to deliver more focused service and better outcomes in our specialized services than larger national competitors who do not discretely dedicate their resources to the services we provide.

We are focused on generatinggenerate attractive returns on capital for our stockholders through the superior margins achieved by ourproviding differentiated services and the prudent application ofprudently applying our cash flow to select targeted growth opportunities, which is intendedwith the potential to deliver high returns that we believe offer superior margins over the long-term and short payback periods. Our services generally require less expensive equipment whichthat is also less expensive to maintain and fewer peopleis operated by a smaller staff than many other oilfield service activities. In addition to the superior margins our differentiated services generate, we believe the rising level of completion intensity in our core operating areas contributes to improved margins and returns.providers. As part of our returns-focused approach to capital spending, we are focused on maintaining aefficiently utilizing capital efficient program with respect to the development ofdevelop new products. We support our existing asset base with targeted investments in R&D, which we believe allowsallow us to maintain a technical advantage over our competitors providing similar services using standard equipment.


Demand for services in the oil and natural gas industry is cyclical. For example, the domestic E&P industry in the United States underwent a substantial downturn in 2015cyclical and much of 2016, placing unprecedented pressure on both our customerssubject to sudden and competitors. The market began to stabilize in late 2016 with oil prices rising through the $40’s per barrel and into the $60’s and $70’s in 2017 and 2018, respectively,

20

although there was a precipitous 44% decline in oil prices from $76 a barrel in October 2018 to $42 a barrel in December 2018.

During the year ended January 31, 2019, we benefitted from our customers’ renewed commitment to their capital budgets. Revenue grew 54.5% as compared with the same period in the prior year driven primarily by a double-digit percentage increase in the number of new customers, a significant increase in the breadth of services provided to existing customers and the introduction of a number of new proprietary PSLs. Operating earnings turned positive during the first quarter of Fiscal 2018 and remained positive through the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2018, excluding costs associated with the Spin-Off, amendment of the asset-based revolving credit facility and acquisition of Motley. Revenue growth in Fiscal 2018 benefited from newly introduced PSLs including the downhole production solutions (“DHPS”) PSL and the HydroPullTM tool in combination with our patented Havok motor bearing assembly, along with the addition of Motley’s large diameter coiled tubing business, which helped offset the negative impact caused by the reduction in fourth quarter completion activity.

Headwinds caused by the decline in oil prices in the fourth quarter of 2018 and the resulting decline in active frac cores carried into 2019. Additionally, severe weather conditions in the Mid-Con, including severe flooding, which led to impassable roads and highways, began in the month of May and persisted through June, resulting in a significant decline in activity in the Mid-Con during the second quarter of 2019. In the Permian, our customers’ completion activities have also been negatively impacted by the lack of available pipeline capacity for natural gas and regulatory limits on flaring. The additional pipeline capacity anticipated to come on-line in the Permian and Bakken within the next year is expected to alleviate some of the gas takeaway capacity issues impacting both regions.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company experienced an abrupt deterioration in industry conditions, which accelerated downward through October 31, 2019. Contemporaneously with the abrupt decline in activity, we took steps to align our business with current customer demand. Specifically, we implemented an approximate 17% reduction in force, as compared with the Company’s July 31, 2019 staffing levels, consistent with the approximate 18% sequential quarterly decline in our third quarter revenues. We aggressively cut costs in every area of our business, and we warm stacked the vast majority of our Permian based wireline assets. As a result of these and other measures, we recorded a third quarter charge of $13.3 for severance and higher reserves for bad debts related to recent customer bankruptcies and related matters (collectively, “Costs as Defined”).

The second quarter to third quarter decrease in aggregate operating frac spreads in the DJ, Niobrara and Williston basins was approximately 20%, while our Rocky Mountains segment revenues declined approximately 9%. In the gassier basins, including the Marcellus, Utica, Woodford and Haynesville, the number of operating frac spreads declined approximately 50%, while our Northeast/Mid-Con segment revenues declined approximately 20%. In the Permian and Eagle Ford shale basins, the operating frac spread count declined approximately 22%, while our Southwest segment revenues were down approximately 28% as we elected to warm stack the vast majority of our wireline assets due to the weak pricing environment. We will continue to monitor our cost structure to ensure it is aligned with operating activity while maintaining our ability to support our customers.

We expect to begin to realize the benefit of our business realignment actions early in the fourth quarter of this year, while we are also recruiting experienced coiled tubing personnel to join the Company in the fourth quarter as we have begun to receive and deploy our five new large diameter coiled tubing spreads. The impacts of both coiled tubing start-up costs and the onset of the traditionally slower winter season will be a drag on earnings in the fourth quarter. The implementation of the Company’s coiled tubing strategy in all of our geographical segments to pull through our broad range of asset light services will be a major strategic priority in 2020, along with continued tight cost control, free cash flow generation and further strengthening of the Company’s balance sheet.

21

The abrupt deterioration in industry conditions, which accelerated through the end of our third quarter, was driven by a sharp sequential quarterly decline in U.S. land rig count and an unprecedented decline in active frac spreads from the second quarter to the third quarter. In fact, there was a significant sequential decline in hydraulic fracturing activity during each month of the third quarter. The decline in Exploration & Production (“E&P”) activity resulted in lower demand levels and lower current and expected revenues for our business, which led the Company to perform an interim goodwill and a long-lived asset impairment test during the three months ended October 31, 2019. Our interim impairment testing during the third quarter of 2019 determined that $45.8 of our goodwill had been impaired. As of October 31, 2019, $24.0 of goodwill and $46.8 of identifiable intangible assets remain. The Company's cash flow projections were a significant input into the October 15, 2019 fair value. If the business continues to be unable to achieve projected results or long-term projections are adjusted downward, it could negatively impact future valuations of the Rocky Mountains reporting unit and the Company’s long-lived assets and result in an impairment charge.

volatility. We remain focused on serving the needs of our customers by providing a broad portfolio of product service lines across all major basins, while preserving a solid balance sheet, maintaining sufficient operating liquidity and prudently managing our capital expenditures. In an operating environment where our financial strength is a key differentiator, we believe the ongoing cost reduction efforts discussed above and the anticipated positive impact from the roll-out of five new large diameter coiled tubing units and the resulting pull through of our broad range of asset light services, will allow us to continue to deliver solid operating results despite the anemic demand levels the industry is experiencing.

We believe our company is well positioned to operate successfully as a standalone company as a result of the numerous initiatives we undertook during the integration of the seven businesses acquired while we were part of KLX Inc. (the “Former Parent” or “KLX”).


We believe our operating cost structure is now materially lower than during the historical financial reporting periods and that there isthe realization of the $46.0 of expected cost synergies associated with the Merger will only further reduce our cost structure and afford us greater flexibility to respond to changing industry conditions. We improved our cost structure by centralizing a number of common functions, as evidenced by our positive cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended October 31, 2019. The implementation of integrated, company-wide management information systems and processes provideprovides more transparency to current operating performance and trends within each market where we compete and help us more acutely scale our cost structure and pricing strategies on a market-by-market basis. OurWe believe our ability to differentiate ourselves on the basis of quality contributesprovides an opportunity for us to revenue growth and profitability even in a stable or declining market environment throughgain market share gains and growingincrease our share of business with existing customers.


We believe we have strong management systems in place, which will allow us to manage our operating resources and associated expenses relative to market conditions. We believeHistorically, we believed our services often generategenerated margins superior to our competitors based upon the differential quality of our performance, and that these margins also support strong freewould contribute to future cash flow generation. The required investment in our business includes both working capital (principally for account receivablesaccounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable growth tied to increasing activity and revenues) and capital expenditures for both maintenance of existing assets and growth.ultimately growth when returns justify the spending. Our required maintenance capital expenditures tend to be lower than other oilfield service providers due to the generally asset-liteasset-light nature of our services, the average age of our assets and our ability to charge back a portion of asset maintenance to customers for a number of our assets.

The Spin-Off

On September 14, 2018, we completed our Spin-Off from KLX and became an independent, publicly-traded company. In connection with the consummation of the Spin-Off, KLX Energy Services entered into a number of agreements with KLX. All services under the transition services agreement with KLX were terminated prior to October 31, 2018. In addition, our undrawn $100.0 asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL Facility”) is available for borrowing for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The approximately $72.2 availability under the ABL Facility is tied to the aggregate amount of our accounts receivable and inventory that satisfy specified criteria.

in the future to make additional acquisitions and/or provide for additional cash on the balance sheet, which could be used for future acquisitions.

Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations

Our results of operations may not be comparable to our historical results of operations for the periods presented, primarily for the reasons described below:

·

Expenses Associated with Former Parent’s Strategic Alternatives Review: During the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, $3.8 of costs and expenses were allocated to us by KLX associated with its strategic alternatives review.

·

SG&A Allocation: Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense historically included allocations of general corporate expenses from KLX for periods through September 14, 2018, the date of the Spin-Off. The historical statements of earnings (loss) reflect allocations of general corporate expenses from KLX, including, but not limited to, executive management, finance, legal, information technology, human resources, employee benefits administration, treasury, risk management, procurement and other shared services. The allocations were made on a direct usage basis when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenues generated, costs incurred, headcount or other measures. Our management considers these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services by, or the benefits provided to, KLX Energy Services. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense we would have incurred as a stand-alone company for the periods presented. Actual costs that may have been incurred if we had been a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, what functions were outsourced or performed by employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology and infrastructure. Please see Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, ''Description of Business and Basis of Presentation," for a description of the costs allocated, the methods of allocation, the reasons for the allocations and how future actual costs may differ from the amounts allocated under the ownership of KLX.

·

Ongoing Stand-Alone Public Company Expenses:  We expect to incur direct, incremental expenses as a result of being a publicly-traded company, including, but not limited to, costs associated with hiring a dedicated corporate management team, annual and quarterly reports, quarterly tax provision preparation, independent auditor fees, expenses relating to compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq, investor relations activities, registrar and transfer agent fees, incremental director and officer liability insurance costs and independent director compensation. These direct, incremental expenses are not included in our historical results of operations for periods prior to the Spin-Off. We expect recurring annual costs to be approximately $10.0 higher than the expenses historically allocated to us from KLX, reflecting 100% allocation of dedicated corporate resources and the expected higher revenues.

Key Financial Performance Indicators

We recognize the highly cyclical nature of our business and the need for metrics to 1)(1) best measure the trends in our operations and 2)(2) provide baselines and targets to assess the performance of our managers.

The metrics we regularly monitor within each of our geographic reporting regions include:

·

Variable cost by service;

·

Asset utilization by service; and


·

Revenue growth by service.

23

The measures we believe most effective to monitor and consider when rewarding management  performanceachieve the above stated goals include:

·

Revenue growth rate;

·

EBITDA growth rate;


·

EBITDA margin;

·

Return on invested capital;

·

Cash flow generationafter investments in the business; and

·

Effectiveness of our health, safety and environmental practices.

Our experience has shown us that measuring our performance is most meaningful when compared against our peers on a relative basis. Our compensation committee engages its own compensation consultant to recommend performance metrics and targets for our employees.

The followingAdjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is a summarysupplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of revenuesour financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net earnings or cash flows as determined by segment:

GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill and/or long-lived asset impairment charges, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, (iii) restructuring charges, (iv) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions and (v) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items that we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance of our business.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, as a percentage of revenue.


We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to supplement the GAAP measures in order to evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA (Loss) because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods, book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net (loss) earnings as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Rocky Mountains segment revenue declined by $39.4, or 68.4%, Northeast/Mid-Con segment revenues declined by $10.5, or 27.3%, and Southwest segment revenue declined by $13.7, or 35.6%. On a product line basis, completiondrilling revenues increased by $4.3, or 39.1%, due to the incremental drilling service revenues acquired in the Merger with QES. Completion, production and intervention services revenues increaseddecreased by approximately 16.5%$35.6, $15.9 and 16.4%,$16.4, respectively, offset by a decrease in production services of approximately 15.0% as compared to the same period in the prior year. Capital spending by our E&P customers was lowerThe overall decrease in all segments as almost all of them intensified their focus on capital discipline in order to generate free cash flow. Despiterevenues reflects the headwinds from our customers managing their capital spending more aggressively, each of our segments generated year over year revenue growth. Rocky Mountains segment revenue growth of $9.5, or 19.8%, reflected an increase in the number of customers served, increased activity across substantially all product lines, improved adoption rates of recently introduced proprietary tools and contributions from Tecton flowback and testing revenues, partially offset by a number of customers suspending operations for the balancelingering impacts of the year, along with lower activity levels among certain other customers.

For the balance of the year, together with increased pricing pressure, particularly from natural gas customers. Southwest segment revenue growth of 0.8% reflected an increase in the number of customers served as well as the acquisition of Motley in the fourth quarter of 2018, offset by lower activity levels and the negative impact from the significantly lower utilization of wireline assets as the Company chose to warm stack these assets rather than operate at prices being offered by competitors.

Third quarter 2019ended October 31, 2020, cost of sales was $119.3,$80.1, or 88.7%113.0% of sales, including $2.1 of Costs as Defined, as compared to the prior year period of $90.2,$119.3, or 73.2%88.7% of sales. Excluding the $2.1Cost of Costs as Defined (none in the prior year period), cost of sales in the third quarter of 2019 was $117.2, or 87.1% of revenues, and as a percentage of revenues increased by approximately 1,390 basis pointsprimarily due to negative operating leverage related to the 47.3% year-over-year decline in revenues as the significant decline in revenues outpaced the reduction in fixed costs. Cost of sales included $14.7 and $15.7 of depreciation expense for the three months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.


Selling, general and administrative expenses. For the quarter ended October 31, 2020, selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses was $14.3, or 20.2% of revenues, as compared with $31.7, or 23.6% of revenues, in the prior year period. The cost reduction initiatives resulting in lower headcount and fixed costs, as compared to the prior year period, primarily duewere offset by non-recurring items related to startupthe Merger and integration such as severance costs associated with the roll out of flowback and testing services, roll out of greaseless wirelinelegal and plug and play disposable gun system and costs to support the roll out of the coiled tubing PSL in both the Northeast/Mid-Con and Rocky Mountains segments as well as significantly lower utilization of wireline assetsprofessional fees totaling $2.7. The Company also recorded a reduction in the Southwest segment. The aforementioned factors resulted in the year over year increase in costbargain purchase gain of sales as a percentage of revenues.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses during the third quarter of 2019, inclusive of Costs as Defined of $11.2, were $31.7, or 23.6% of revenues, as compared with $42.3, or 34.3% of revenues, (which included $23.0 of Spin-Off costs and expenses), in the prior year period. Excluding 2019 Costs as Defined ($23.0 in the prior year period), SG&A expenses in the third quarter of 2019 were $20.5, or 15.2% of revenues, as compared with $19.3, or 15.7% of revenues, in the prior year period. Third quarter 2019 research and development costs were $0.8 reflecting our continued focus on in-house research and development to deploy new specialized and proprietary tools and equipment.

As previously described above and in Note 5 of the notes$2.4 related to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we recorded a $45.8 goodwill impairment charge during the three months ended October 31,

2019. Approximately $22.4 of this charge was attributable to goodwill in the Southwest segment and $23.4 was attributable to goodwill in the Northeast/Mid-Con segment.

Operating loss and operating margin, including Costs as Defined of $13.3 and the goodwill impairment charge of $45.8, were $(63.1) and (46.9)%, respectively. Exclusive of the $13.3 of Costs as Defined ($23.0 in the prior year period) and the $45.8 goodwill impairment charge, current period operating loss was $(4.0) as compared to operating(loss) earnings of $13.1 in the prior year period. As previously discussed, operating results were negatively impacted by a number of customers suspending operations for the balance of the year in the Rocky Mountains and Northeast/Mid-Con segments, increased pricing pressure, particularly from natural gas customers in the Northeast/Mid-Con segment, low utilization of wireline assets in the Southwest segment due to our decision not to deploy these assets at pricing offered by our competitors, startup costs associated with the roll out of flowback and testing services, the greaseless wireline and plug and play disposable gun system and costs to support the roll out of the coiled tubing PSL in both the Northeast/Mid-Con and Rocky Mountains segments.

Income tax benefit was $0.5 for the three months ended October 31, 2019, as compared to none in the prior year period. The Company has established a valuation allowance against the majority of its deferred tax balances with a net deferred tax liability remaining related to the Red Bone acquisition. Due to the fact the Company has a valuation allowance against the majority of its deferred tax balances, with the exception of Red Bone, it was unable to recognize a tax benefit on its year to date losses

Net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2019 was $(69.8) as compared to net loss of $(9.9) in the prior year period for the reasons mentioned above and $7.2 of interest expense in the third quarter of 2019 (none in 2018).

For the quarter ended October 31, 2019, 2020, operating loss was $30.4 compared to operating loss of $63.1 in the prior year period, due to a decrease in impairment and other charges of $41.4 offset by a reduction in revenues due to reduced activity and pricing pressure caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and international pricing and production disputes, as well as non-recurring items related to the Merger.

Rocky Mountains segment revenues of $57.6 increased by $9.5, or 19.8%, driven by an increase in the number of customers served, increased activity across substantially all product lines, improved adoption rates of recently introduced proprietary tools, including the HydroPullTM tool in combination with the Company’s proprietary motor bearing assembly, and dissolvable plugs, as well as approximately $7.0 of growth from the addition of Tecton flowback and testing revenues, partially offset by the approximate 20% decrease in frac spreads resulting from customers suspending or curtailing operations for the year, along with lower activity levels among certain other customers. Operating earnings and operating margin were approximately $2.6 and 4.5%, increases of 181% and 1,120 basis points, respectively, as compared to the prior year period.

Third quarter ended October 31, 2019loss was $4.6, Northeast/Mid-Con segment revenues of $38.4 increased by approximately 4.1% driven by a significant increase in the number of customers served, improved adoption rates of proprietary tools and the March 2019 acquisition of Red Bone, offset by the approximate 50% decrease in frac spreads resulting from customers suspending or curtailing operations for the year. Operating efficiency and operating earnings were severely impacted by a number of customers suspending operations for the balance of the year, together with increased pricing pressure, particularly from natural gas customers and the Northeast/Mid-Con segment portion of the impaired goodwill, and as a result, operating loss for the current period was $(26.1).

Table of Contents

For the quarter ended October 31, 2019, Southwest segment revenues of $38.5 increased 0.8% driven primarily by the acquisition of Motley in the fourth quarter of 2018 as well as an increase in the number of customers served, both of which were offset by the approximate 22% decrease in frac spreads resulting from customers suspending or curtailing operations for the year, lower activity levels by certain customers and low utilization of wireline assets as the Company chose not to deploy these assets at prices being offered by competitors. The Southwest segment is also incurring the additional cost of rolling out flowback and testing services and rolling out greaseless wireline and a fully addressable plug and play disposable gun system in the Permian that has already been successfully rolled out in the Rocky Mountains segment. The Southwest segment also continues to incur costs to support the rollout of the coiled tubing PSL in both the Northeast/Mid-Con and the Rocky Mountains segments. Primarily as a result of the factors described above, and the goodwill impairment attributable to the Southwest segment of $22.4, operating loss was $(39.6)$4.0 and Southwest segment operating loss was $8.2 for the three months ended October 31, 2019.

Income tax expense (benefit). For the quarter ended October 31, 2020, income tax expense was $0.2, as compared to income tax benefit of $0.5 in the prior year period, and was comprised primarily of state and local taxes. The Company did not recognize a tax benefit on its year-to-date losses because it has a valuation allowance against its deferred tax balances.

Net loss. For the quarter ended October 31, 2020, net loss was $38.3, as compared to $69.8 in the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in impairment and other charges of $41.4.

Correction of errors. During the three months ended October 31, 2020, the Company determined that accumulated depreciation was overstated following the impairment of certain property and equipment in prior periods. As a result, a prior period correction of $3.7 to reduce accumulated depreciation and depreciation expense was recorded during the three months ended October 31, 2020, of which $2.3 relates to depreciation expense recognized in the three months ended July 31, 2020 for assets impaired as of April 30, 2020.

In addition, the Company identified a $2.0 gain on termination of leased vehicles which related to the three months ended July 31, 2020 but was recorded in the three months ended October 31, 2020. There was no impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 related to this error.

The Company concluded the errors were not material to previously issued financial statements.

For the nine months ended October 31, 2019, Rocky Mountains segment revenues2020, operating loss was $278.8, as compared to operating loss of $169.7 increased by 24.7%,$49.7 in the prior year period, largely driven by increasesa reduction in completions, interventionrevenues due to reduced activity and pricing pressure caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and international pricing and production of 36.9%, 15.6% and 7.9%, respectively. The Rocky Mountains segment experienced an increase in the number of customers served, increased activity across substantially all product lines, improved adoption rates of recently introduced proprietary tools, including the HydroPullTM tool in combination with the Company’s proprietary motor bearing assembly, and dissolvable plugs,disputes, as well as approximately $16.1 of growth from the addition of Tecton flowback and testing revenues, partially offset by the approximate 20% decrease in frac spreads resulting from customers suspending or curtailing operations for the year, along with lower activity levels among certain other customers. Operating earnings and operating margin were approximately $14.2 and 8.4%, increases of 330% and 590 basis points, respectively, as comparednon-recurring items related to the prior year period.

For the nine months ended October 31, 2019,2020, Rocky Mountains segment operating loss was $45.2, Northeast/Mid-Con segment revenues of $125.7 increased by approximately 30.0%operating loss was $104.2 and Southwest segment operating loss was $113.5, in each case primarily driven by increases in completions, intervention and production of 20.2%, 58.7% and 20.1%, respectively. The Northeast/Mid-Con segment experienced a significant increase in the number of customers served, improved adoption rates of proprietary tools and the March 2019 acquisition of Red Bone, offset by the approximate 50% decrease in frac spreads resulting from customers suspending or curtailing operations for the year. Operating efficiency and operating earnings were severely impacted by a number of customers suspending operations for the balance of the year, together with increased pricing pressure, particularly from natural gas customers and the Northeast/Mid-Con segment portion of the impaired goodwill, and as a result, operating loss for the current period was $(18.7). Operating loss and operating margin were approximately $(18.7) and (14.9)%, reflecting the additional fixed costs resulting from the Red Bone acquisition and negative impact of the increased pricing pressure previously discussed.

For the nine months ended October 31, 2019, Southwest segmentlower revenues of $149.8 increased 26.3% driven by an increase in completions of 55.9% partially offset by decreases in intervention and production of 13.1% and 12.0%, respectively. The increase in Southwest segment revenues was driven by the Motley acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2018 as well as an increase in the number of customers served, both of which were offset by the approximate 22% decrease in frac spreads resulting from customers suspending or curtailing operations for the year, lower activity levels by certain of its customers and low utilization of wireline assets as the Company chose not to deploy these assets at prices being offered by

competitors. The Southwest segment is also incurring the additional cost of rolling out flowback and testing services and rolling out greaseless wireline and a fully addressable plug and play disposable gun system in the Permian that has already been successfully rolled out in the Rocky Mountains segment. The Southwest segment also continues to incur costs to support the rollout of the coiled tubing PSL in both the Northeast/Mid-Con and the Rocky Mountains segments. Primarily as a result of decreased demand for the factors described above,Company's products and the goodwill impairment attributable to the Southwest segment of $22.4, operating lossservices.

Net loss. Net loss for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 was $301.8, as compared to $71.3 in the prior year period, primarily due to decreased demand and increased impairment and other charges as described above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

TableWe require capital to fund ongoing operations, including maintenance expenditures on our existing fleet and equipment, organic growth initiatives, investments and acquisitions. Our primary sources of Contents

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Current Financial Condition

liquidity to date have been capital contributions from our equity and note holders and borrowings under the Company’s $100.0 asset-based revolving credit facility pursuant to a senior secured credit agreement dated August 10, 2018 (the “ABL Facility”) and cash flows from operations. At October 31, 2019,2020, we had $121.1$79.8 of cash and cash equivalents and $26.4 available on the ABL Facility, which resulted in a total liquidity position of $106.2. During the fourth quarter of 2020, $2.8 of the outstanding letters of credit have been extinguished, further increasing the Company’s liquidity position.


Volatile WTI prices, challenges created by the global COVID-19 pandemic and the current oil supply demand imbalance have further decreased demand for our services. Our cash flow used in operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2020 was approximately $35.8 in cash flows. In response to declining customer activity and commodity price instability, we recently implemented a series of additional cost reductions to reduce our cost structure. However, there is no certainty that cash flow will improve or that we will have positive operating cash flow for a sustained period of time. Our operating cash flow is sensitive to many variables, the most significant of which are utilization and profitability, the timing of billing and customer collections, payments to our vendors, repair and maintenance costs and personnel, any of which may affect our cash available. The COVID-19 outbreak and the related significant decrease in the price of oil resulted in a decrease in demand for our services in the last part of the first quarter and in the second and third quarters, and we expect lower pricing and activity levels to continue until there are clear signs of a commodity price recovery. Additionally, should our customers experience financial distress due to the current market conditions, they could default on their payments owed to us, which would affect our cash flows and liquidity.

Our primary use of capital resources has been for funding working capital and investing in property and equipment used to provide our services. Our primary uses of cash are critical maintenance capital expenditures and investments. We regularly monitor potential capital sources, including equity and debt financings, in an effort to meet our planned capital expenditure and liquidity requirements. The COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with the global crude oil supply and demand imbalance and resulting decline in crude oil prices, has significantly affected the value of our common stock, which may reduce our ability to access capital in the bank and capital markets, including through equity or debt offerings.

At October 31, 2020, we had $79.8 of cash and cash equivalents. Cash on hand at October 31, 20192020 decreased by $42.7$43.7, as compared with $163.8$123.5 cash on hand at January 31, 20192020 as a result of $35.8 of cash flows used to fund acquisitions of $27.6 and capital expenditures of $67.4, principallyby operating activities primarily related to investments for growth capital expenditures in the first half $14.8of 2019, offset byinterest, and $9.7 to pay down QES's five year asset-based revolving credit agreement; and $10.3 of cash flows from operating activities of $53.2.used in investing activities. Our liquidity requirements consist of working capital needs, debt service obligations and ongoing capital expenditure requirements. Our primary requirements for working capital are directly related to the activity level of our operations. Our sources

As of October 31, 2019,2020, total current assets excluding cash decreased by $57.6$16.3 and total current liabilities decreasedincreased by $11.1.$10.6.

Capital expenditures


Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.4 for growth and company initiatives are discretionary. We continually evaluate our capital expenditures, and the amount we ultimately spend will depend on a number of factors, including expected industry activity levels and company initiatives. We expect to fund future capital expenditures from cash on hand and cash flow from operations. We have funds available from our secured $100.0 ABL Facility, none of which was drawn atnine months ended October 31, 2020 due to a change in financed payables, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1.4 for the nine months ended October 31, 2019.

Financing Arrangements

In connection with the Spin-Off, we


We entered into a $100.0 ABL Facility on August 10, 2018. The ABL Facility became effective on September 14, 2018 the date of the Spin-Off, and is scheduled to mature in September 2023. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus the applicable margin (as defined in the ABL Facility) plus the applicable margin (as defined). Availability under the ABL Facility is tied to a borrowing base formula and the ABL Facility has no maintenance financial covenants.covenants as long as we maintain a minimum level of borrowing availability. During the three months ended October 31, 2020, the Company included the acquired QES current asset collateral into the borrowing base formula used to calculate the KLXE borrowing availability. The ABL Facility is secured by, among other things, a first priority lien on our accounts receivable and inventory and contains customary conditions precedent to borrowing and affirmative and negative covenants, all of which were met as of October 31, 2019.covenants. No amounts were outstanding under the ABL Facility as of October 31, 2019.2020. The effective interest rate under the ABL Facility would have been approximately 3.9%2.75% on October 31, 2019. 

2020.


The ABL Facility includes a financial covenant which requires the Company’s consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) to be at least 1.0 to 1.0 if availability falls below the greater of $10.0 or 15% of the borrowing base. At all times during the three months ended October 31, 2020, availability exceeded this threshold, and the Company was not subject to this financial covenant. As of October 31, 2020, the FCCR was below 1.0 to 1.0. The Company was in full compliance with its credit facility as of October 31, 2020.

In conjunction with the acquisition of Motley in 2018, we issued $250.0 of Notes due 2025 offered pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the "Securities Act") and to certain non-U.S. persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

On a net basis, after taking into consideration the debt issuance costs for the Notes, total debt as of October 31, 2020 was $243.6. The Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 11.5%, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1. Accrued interest as of October 31, 2020 was $14.4.


We believe our cash on hand, cash from operating activities, our financial plans for Fiscal 2019 and the approximately $72.2along with $26.4 of availability under our $100.0 undrawn ABL Facility, provideprovides us with the ability to fund our operations, make planned capital expenditures, repurchase our debt or equity securities, meet our debt service obligations and provide funding for potential future acquisitions.

Contractual Obligations

The following chart reflects our contractual obligations


Capital Requirements and commercial commitments asSources of Liquidity

Our capital expenditures were $11.1 during the nine months ended October 31, 2020, compared to $67.4 in the nine months ended October 31, 2019. Commercial commitments include linesWe expect to incur between $13.0 and $15.0 in capital expenditures for the year ending January 31, 2021, based on current industry conditions and our recent significant investments in capital expenditures over the past several years. The nature of credit, guaranteesour capital expenditures is comprised of a base level of investment required to support our current operations and amounts related to growth and Company initiatives. Capital expenditures for growth and Company initiatives are discretionary. We continually evaluate our capital expenditures, and the amount we ultimately spend will depend on a number of factors, including expected industry activity levels and Company initiatives. We expect to fund future capital expenditures from cash on hand and cash flow from operations. We have funds available from our $100.0 ABL Facility (under which the amount of availability depends in part on a borrowing base tied to the aggregate amount of our accounts receivable and inventory satisfying specified criteria and our compliance with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio), none of which was drawn at October 31, 2020.

Our ability to satisfy our liquidity requirements depends on our future operating performance, which is affected by prevailing economic and political conditions, the level of drilling, completion, production and intervention services activity for North American onshore oil and natural gas resources, the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, and financial and business and other potentialfactors, many of which are beyond our control. We believe that our cash outflows resulting fromflows, together with cash on hand, will provide us with the ability to fund our operations and make planned capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.

(1)

Interest payments include interest payments due on the Notes based on the stated rate of 11.5%. To the extent we incur interest on the ABL Facility, interest payments would fluctuate based on LIBOR or the prime rate pursuant to the terms of the ABL Facility.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Lease Arrangements

We finance our use of certain facilities and equipment under committed lease arrangements provided by various institutions. Since the terms of these arrangements meet the accounting definition of operating lease arrangements, the aggregate sum of future minimum lease payments is not reflected on our balance sheets. At October 31, 2019, future minimum lease payments under these arrangements approximated $70.6, of which $22.9 is related to long-term real estate leases.


Indemnities, Commitments and Guarantees


In the normal course of our business, we make certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees

32

Table of Contents

under which we may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These indemnities include indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facility or lease and indemnities to other parties to certain acquisition agreements. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies and, in certain cases, is indefinite. Many of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees provide for limitations on the maximum potential future payments we could be obligated to make. However, we are unable to estimate the maximum amount of liability related to our indemnities, commitments and guarantees because such liabilities are contingent upon the occurrence of events that are not reasonably determinable. Our management believes that any liability for these indemnities, commitments and guarantees would not be material to our financial statements. Accordingly, no significant amounts have been accrued for indemnities, commitments and guarantees.

We have employment agreements with certain key members of management expiring on various dates. Our employment agreements generally provide for certain protections in the event of a change of control. These protections generally include the payment of severance and related benefits under certain circumstances in the event of a change of control.

Seasonality

Our operations are subject to seasonal factors and our overall financial results reflect seasonal variations. Specifically, we typically have experienced a pause by our customers around the holiday season in the fourth quarter, which may be compounded as our customers exhaust their annual capital spending budgets towards year end. Additionally, our operations are directly affected by weather conditions. During the winter months (first and fourth quarters) and periods of heavy snow, ice or rain, particularly in our Rocky Mountains and Northeast/Mid-Con segments, our customers may delay operations, or we may not be able to operate or move our equipment between locations. Also, during the spring thaw, which normally starts in late March and continues through June, some areas may impose transportation restrictions to prevent damage caused by the spring thaw. Lastly, throughout the year, heavy rains adversely affect activity levels, as well locations and dirt access roads can become impassible in wet conditions. Weather conditions also affect the demand for, and prices of, oil and natural gas and, as a result, demand for our services. Demand for oil and natural gas is typically higher in the first and fourth quarters, resulting in higher prices in these quarters.

Backlog

We operate under master service agreements (“MSAs”) with our E&P customers, which set forth the terms and conditions for the provision of services and related tools and equipment. Completion services are typically based on a day rate with rates based on the type of equipment and competitive conditions. As a result, we do not record backlog.

Effect of Inflation

Inflation has not had and is not expected to have a significant effect on our operations.


Critical Accounting Policies


Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that our critical accounting policies are limited to those described in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except10-K filed with the SEC on March 24, 2020 and this quarterly report on Form 10-Q as of the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2020.

We completed our acquisition of QES on July 28, 2020. QES's results of operations have been included in our financial results for the changes below, there have been no changesperiod subsequent to our criticalthe acquisition date.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, policies since January 31, 2019.

we allocate the fair value of purchase consideration transferred to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired, if any, and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the date of the acquisition. The fair values assigned, defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants, are based on estimates and assumptions determined by management. The estimated fair value of the assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, exceeds the purchase consideration, resulting in a bargain purchase gain.


When determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we make significant estimates and assumptions. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.

During the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to bargain purchase gain if new information is obtained related to facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. After the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition costs, such as legal and consulting fees, are expensed as incurred.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the

33

Table of Contents

reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is

36

Table of Contents
a reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been used. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our financial statements. We provide expanded discussion of our more significant accounting policies, estimates and judgments below. We believe that most of these accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Under ASC Topic 606, we recognize revenue when our customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that we determine are within the scope of ASC Topic 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. We recognize revenue in the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

Service revenues are recorded over time throughout and for the duration of the service period. Contracts are pursuant to an MSA combined with a completed field ticket or a work order, which sets forth the details of the specific transaction, including pricing.

Revenues from product sales are recognized when the customer obtains control of our product, which occurs at a point in time, typically upon delivery in accordance with the terms of the field ticket or work order. We provide allowances for credits, based on historic experience, and adjust such allowances as considered necessary.

We operate under MSAs with our oil and gas customers, which set forth the terms and conditions for the provision of services. Service contracts are typically based on a day rate with rates based on the type of equipment and competitive conditions. As a result, we do not record backlog.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


See Note 2 “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements. As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBSJumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”), we are offered an opportunity to use an extended transition period for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards. We operate under the reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards, until we are no longer an emerging growth company. Our election to use the phase-in periods permitted by this election may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the longer phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act and who will comply with new or revised financial accounting standards. If we were to subsequently elect instead to comply with these public company effective dates, such election would be irrevocable pursuant to Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by Item 305 of Regulation S-K.
ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Litigation ReformExchange Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor" for forward-looking statements to encourage companies1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide prospectivereasonable assurance that information required to investors. Thisbe disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers (who are our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively), or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report for the quarter ended October 31, 2020, an evaluation was performed under the supervision of and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on

that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of October 31, 2020, due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as described below.


34

Material Weakness

37

Table of Contents

We identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2020. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness related to inadequate review of the measurement of depreciation expense for impaired property and equipment.


Remediation Plan

We are currently in the process of remediating the material weakness and have taken and continue to take steps that we believe will address the underlying causes of the material weakness. Steps we are taking or have taken include transitioning key roles following the Merger, hiring of additional accounting personnel, providing training, and enhancing review controls of the measurement of depreciation expense.

We can give no assurance that these actions will remediate this deficiency in internal control or that additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future. Additionally, this material weakness could result in misstatements to our financial statements or disclosures that would result in material misstatements to our annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, our management may determine to take additional measures to address the material weakness identified above or determine to modify the remediation steps described above. Until the remediation steps set forth above are fully developed, implemented and operating for a sufficient amount of time to validate the remediation, the material weakness described above will continue to exist.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than the material weakness noted above and efforts to remediate the reported material weakness, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) includes forward-looking statements that reflect our current expectations and projections about our future results, performance and prospects. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical in naturehave materially affected or, are not current facts. We have triedreasonably likely to identify these forward-looking statements by using forward-looking words including "believe," "expect," "plan," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "may," "might," "should," "could," "will" ormaterially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

In addition to the information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors that could cause our actual results, performance and prospects to differ materially from those expresseddescribed in or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include those discussed in our filings with the SEC, in particular those discussed under the headingsPart I, Item IA. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019, including the following factors:

·

regulation of and dependence upon the energy industry;

·

the cyclical nature of the energy industry;

·

market prices for fuel, oil and natural gas;

·

competitive conditions;

·

legislative or regulatory changes and potential liability under federal and state laws and regulations;

·

decreases in the rate at which oil or natural gas reserves are discovered or developed;

·

the impact of technological advances2020, and our Quarterly Reports on the demand for our products and services;

·

delays of customers obtaining permits for their operations;

·

hazards and operational risks that may not be fully covered by insurance;

·

the write-off of a significant portion of intangible assets;

·

the need to obtain additional capital or financing, and the availability and/or cost of obtaining such capital or financing;

·

limitations that our organizational documents, debt instruments and U.S. federal income tax

requirements may have on our financial flexibility, our ability to engage in strategic transactions or our ability to declare and pay cash dividends on our common stock;

·

our credit profile;

·

changes in supply and demand of equipment;

·

oilfield anti-indemnity provisions;

·

severe weather;

·

reliance on information technology resources and the inability to implement new technology;

·

increased labor costs or the unavailability of skilled workers;

·

the inability to successfully consummate acquisitions or inability to manage potential growth; and

·

the inability to achieve some or all of the benefits of the Spin-Off.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q. These statements should be considered only after carefully reading this entire Form 10-Q. Except as required under the federal securities laws and rules and regulations of the SEC, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional risks that we may currently deem immaterial or that are not presently known to us could also cause the forward-looking events discussed in this Form 10-Q not to occur.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

At Octoberfor the quarters ended April 30, 2020 and July 31, 2019 and January 31, 2019, we held no significant derivative instruments.

Interest Rate Risk2020.


We will have interest rate exposure arising from variable interest with respect to our ABL Facility as any borrowings would be impacted by changes in short-term interest rates.

Table of Contents

As of October 31, 2019, we maintainedidentified a portfolio of cash and securities consisting mainly of taxable, interest-bearing deposits with weighted average maturities of less than three months. If short-term interest rates were to increase or decrease by 10%, we estimate interest income would increase or decrease by approximately $0.1.

Commodity Price Risk – Our fuel purchases expose us to commodity price risk. Our fuel costs consist primarily of diesel fuel used by our various trucks and other motorized equipment. The prices for fuel are volatile and are impacted by changes in supply and demand, as well as market uncertainty and regional shortages. Recently, we have been able to pass along price increases to our customers, but we may be unable to do so in the future. We generally do not engage in commodity price hedging activities.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness, as of October 31, 2019, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of October 31, 2019.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changesmaterial weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and may identify additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, which may result in material misstatements of our financial statements or cause us to fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations.


We and our independent registered public accounting firm have identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2020. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that occurred duringthere is a reasonable possibility that a

material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness is related to inadequate review of the second fiscal quartermeasurement of depreciation expense for impaired property and equipment. As a result of this material weakness, our management concluded that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

reporting was not effective as of October 31, 2020.

36


We are enhancing our internal controls, processes and related documentation necessary to remediate our material weakness. We have taken, and continue to take, the following actions: transitioning key roles following the merger with Quintana Energy Services, Inc.; hiring of additional accounting personnel; providing training; and enhancing review controls of the measurement of depreciation expense.

We can give no assurance that the measures we have taken and plan to take in the future will remediate the material weakness identified or that any additional material weaknesses or restatements of financial results will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or circumvention of these controls. In addition, even if we are successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, in the future those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements.

Any failure to maintain effective internal controls could adversely impact our ability to report our financial results on a timely and accurate basis. Ineffective internal controls could also potentially cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

When we cease to be an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws, our registered public accounting firm will be required to express an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal controls. If we are unable to confirm that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal controls, we could potentially lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.
