Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations | 1. Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations | |||
Basis of Presentation | ||||
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Basic Energy Services, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Basic” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. Certain information relating to our organization and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in accordance with GAAP and financial statement requirements promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The notes to the consolidated financial statements (unaudited) should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the December 31, 2014 Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. | ||||
Nature of Operations | ||||
Basic provides a wide range of well site services to oil and natural gas drilling and producing companies, including completion and remedial services, fluid services, well servicing and contract drilling. These services are primarily provided using Basic’s fleet of equipment. Basic’s operations are concentrated in the major United States onshore oil and gas producing regions in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Wyoming, North Dakota, Colorado, Utah, Montana, West Virginia, Ohio, California, Kentucky and Pennsylvania. | ||||
Principles of Consolidation | ||||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Basic and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Basic has no variable interest in any other organization, entity, partnership or contract. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. | ||||
Estimates and Uncertainties | ||||
Preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management uses historical and other pertinent information to determine these estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas where critical accounting estimates are made by management include: | ||||
· | Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets | |||
· | Impairment of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets | |||
· | Allowance for doubtful accounts | |||
· | Litigation and self-insured risk reserves | |||
· | Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an acquisition | |||
· | Stock-based compensation | |||
· | Income taxes | |||

Commitments And Contingencies [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | 6. Commitments and Contingencies |
Environmental | |
Basic is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations that establish standards and requirements for protection of the environment. Basic cannot predict the future impact of such standards and requirements, which are subject to change and can have retroactive effectiveness. Basic continues to monitor the status of these laws and regulations. Management believes that the likelihood of any of these items resulting in a material adverse impact to Basic’s financial position, liquidity, capital resources or future results of operations is remote. | |
Currently, Basic has not been fined, cited or notified of any environmental violations that would have a material adverse effect upon its financial position, liquidity or capital resources. However, management does recognize that by the very nature of its business, material costs could be incurred in the near term to bring Basic into total compliance. The amount of such future expenditures is not determinable due to several factors, including the unknown magnitude of possible contamination, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions which may be required, the determination of Basic’s liability in proportion to other responsible parties and the extent to which such expenditures are recoverable from insurance or indemnification. | |
Litigation | |
From time to time, Basic is a party to litigation or other legal proceedings that Basic considers to be a part of the ordinary course of business. Basic is not currently involved in any legal proceedings that it considers probable or reasonably possible, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. | |
Self-Insured Risk Accruals | |
Basic is self-insured up to retention limits as it relates to workers’ compensation, general liability claims, and medical and dental coverage of its employees. Basic generally maintains no physical property damage coverage on its workover rig fleet, with the exception of certain of its 24-hour workover rigs and newly manufactured rigs. Basic has deductibles per occurrence for workers’ compensation, general liability claims, and medical and dental coverage of $5.0 million, $1.0 million, and $400,000, respectively. Basic has lower deductibles per occurrence for automobile liability. Basic maintains accruals in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets related to self-insurance retentions based upon third-party data and claims history. | |
At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, self-insured risk accruals totaled approximately $34.9 million and $33.4 million, respectively. | |

Common Stock | |
In March 2015, Basic granted various employees 888,104 restricted shares of common stock that vest over a three-year period. | |
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, Basic issued 103,750 shares of common stock from treasury stock for the exercise of stock options. | |
Treasury Stock | |
During the first three months of 2015, Basic repurchased 513,600 shares for a total price of approximately $3.4 million (an average of approximately $6.67 per share), inclusive of commissions and fees. As of March 31, 2015, Basic may purchase up to an additional $10.5 million of Basic’s shares of common stock under the repurchase program. | |
Basic has acquired treasury shares through net share settlements for payment of payroll taxes upon the vesting of restricted stock. Basic acquired a total of 194,930 shares through net share settlements during the first three months of 2015 and 250,461 shares through net share settlements during the first three months of 2014. | |

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, compensation expense related to share-based arrangements was approximately $4.0 million and $3.4 million, respectively. For compensation expense recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, Basic recognized a tax benefit of approximately $1.4 million and $799,000, respectively. | |||||||||||
As of March 31, 2015, there was approximately $25.5 million of total unrecognized compensation related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years. The total fair value of share-based awards vested during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $4.8 million and $20.3 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 there was no excess tax benefit due to the net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”). If there was no NOL, there would have been no excess tax benefit at March 31, 2015 and there would have been an excess tax benefit of approximately $4.2 million at March 31, 2014. | |||||||||||
Stock Option Awards | |||||||||||
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. Options granted under the Plan expire 10 years from the date they are granted, and generally vest over a three- to five-year service period. | |||||||||||

Phantom Stock Awards | |||||||||||
On March 18, 2015, the Compensation Committee of Basic’s Board of Directors approved grants of performance-based phantom stock awards to certain members of management. The performance-based phantom stock awards are tied to Basic’s achievement of total stockholder return (“TSR”) relative to the TSR of a peer group of energy services companies over the performance period (defined as the one-year calculation period starting on the 20th NYSE trading day prior to and including the last NYSE trading day of 2014 and ending on the last NYSE trading day of 2015). The number of phantom shares to be issued will range from 0% to 150% of the 704,089 target number of phantom shares, depending on the performance noted above. Any phantom shares earned at the end of the performance period will then remain subject to vesting in one-third increments on March 15, 2016, 2017 and 2018 (subject to accelerated vesting in certain circumstances). As of March 31, 2015, Basic estimated that 100% of the target number of performance-based awards will be earned. The Compensation Committee also approved grants of phantom restricted stock awards to certain key employees. The number of phantom shares issued was 654,500. These grants remain subject to vesting over a three-year period, with the first portion vesting March 15, 2016. | |||||||||||

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items.” ASU 2015-01 eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of an extraordinary item. The Board released the new guidance as part of its simplification initiative, which is intended to “identify, evaluate, and improve areas of U.S. GAAP for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements.” The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those annual periods. Basic does not believe this pronouncement will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. | |
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those annual periods. Basic is in the process of determining if this pronouncement will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. | |

On April 21, 2015, Basic entered into an amendment to its existing $300 million Credit Agreement (as so amended, the “Modified Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the lenders, that, among other things: (A) reduces the maximum aggregate commitments thereunder from $300 million to $250 million; (B) permits credit extensions under the Modified Facility based on availability under a borrowing base comprised of eligible billed accounts receivable, eligible unbilled accounts receivable and eligible equipment of Basic; and (C) provides for the replacement of the existing financial covenants with new financial covenants, which apply only if availability under the Modified Facility is less than the greater of (i) 25% of the aggregate commitments outstanding, or (ii) $62.5 million. If that circumstance exists, Basic will be required to maintain (a) a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50 to 1.00 and (b) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio not less than 1.00 to 1.00. | |

Basis of Presentation | ||||
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Basic Energy Services, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Basic” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. Certain information relating to our organization and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in accordance with GAAP and financial statement requirements promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The notes to the consolidated financial statements (unaudited) should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the December 31, 2014 Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. | ||||
Nature of Operations | Nature of Operations | |||
Basic provides a wide range of well site services to oil and natural gas drilling and producing companies, including completion and remedial services, fluid services, well servicing and contract drilling. These services are primarily provided using Basic’s fleet of equipment. Basic’s operations are concentrated in the major United States onshore oil and gas producing regions in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Wyoming, North Dakota, Colorado, Utah, Montana, West Virginia, Ohio, California, Kentucky and Pennsylvania. | ||||
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation | |||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Basic and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Basic has no variable interest in any other organization, entity, partnership or contract. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. | ||||
Estimates and Uncertainties | Estimates and Uncertainties | |||
Preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management uses historical and other pertinent information to determine these estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas where critical accounting estimates are made by management include: | ||||
· | Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets | |||
· | Impairment of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets | |||
· | Allowance for doubtful accounts | |||
· | Litigation and self-insured risk reserves | |||
