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 “QES Merger”). On July 28, 2020, immediately prior to the consummation of the QES 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 The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of KLXE and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. Use of Estimates 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. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized upon the customer obtaining control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, the following five steps are performed: (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. Revenue is recognized 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 pursuant to a master services agreement combined with a completed field ticket or a work order. Revenues from product sales are recognized when the customer obtains control of the product, which occurs at a point in time, typically upon delivery in accordance with the terms of the field ticket or work order. Income Taxes The Company accounts for deferred income taxes through the asset and liability method. Under this method, a deferred tax liability or asset is recognized for the expected future tax consequences resulting from the differences in financial reporting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as a component of income tax expense. Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, and certificates of deposits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in various financial institutions, which at times may exceed federally insured amounts. Management believes that this risk is not significant. Accounts Receivable, Net The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current creditworthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. The allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $5.5 and $5.7, respectively. Activity in our allowance for doubtful accounts during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is set forth in the table below: Allowance for doubtful accounts Balance at beginning of period ASC 326* Adjustment at adoption Charged (credited) to costs and expenses Deductions (1) Balance at end of period December 31, 2023 $ 5.7 $ — $ 0.6 $ (0.8) $ 5.5 December 31, 2022 $ 6.4 $ (0.1) $ 0.2 $ (0.8) $ 5.7 * ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. (1) Accounts receivable balances written off during the period, net of recoveries. Inventories Inventories, made up primarily of dissolvable plugs, supplies, finished goods and other consumables used to perform services for customers. The Company values inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Reserves for excess and obsolete inventory were approximately $4.5 and $4.4 as of years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated generally under the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of one Intangible Assets, Net Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed at least annually for impairment. Acquired intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their individual useful lives. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were net intangible assets with definite lives of $1.8 and $2.1, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, intangible assets had gross carrying amount of $5.9 and $5.9 and accumulated amortization of $4.1 and $3.8, respectively, with amortization expense for the years then ended of $0.3 and $0.3, respectively. Leases The Company has elected the practical expedients for all asset classes to carry forward the historical lease classifications and assessment of initial direct costs, account for lease and non-lease components as a single component, and exclude leases with an initial term of less than twelve months in the lease assets and liabilities. Long‑Lived Assets Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and purchased intangibles subject 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 in the carrying value of the related asset and a charge to operating results. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no impairments of long-lived assets. Debt Issuance Costs The Company capitalizes certain third-party fees directly related to the issuance of debt and amortizes these costs over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. Debt issuance costs related to the Company’s $100.0 senior secured asset-based lending facility (the “ABL Facility”) are presented net of amortization as a non-current asset. Debt issuance costs related to the Company’s $237.3 principal amount of 11.5% senior secured notes due 2025 (the “Senior Notes”) are presented net of amortization as an offset to the liability. Amortized debt issuance costs are included in interest expense and totaled $1.8 and $1.6 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Common Stock Equivalents The Company has potential Common Stock equivalents related to its outstanding restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. These potential Common Stock equivalents are not included in diluted loss per share for any period presented in which there is a net loss because the effect would have been anti‑dilutive. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for share-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 718, whereby share-based compensation cost is measured on the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the award and recognized as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period. Compensation cost recognized during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 primarily related to grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units granted or approved by the Board’s compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”). See Note 12 - Stock-Based Compensation for additional information related to stock-based compensation. Concentration of Risk The Company provides products and services to energy industry customers who focus on developing and producing oil and gas onshore in North America. The Company’s management performs ongoing credit evaluations on the financial condition of all of its customers and maintains allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable based on expected collectability. Credit losses have historically been within management’s expectations and the provisions established. Significant customers change from year to year depending on the level of E&P activity and the use of the Company’s services. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues. |
