Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Kodiak and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. In addition, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Segment Information The Company operates in two business segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, who is the Company’s chief executive officer (“CEO”), in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. The Company has identified the operating segments as Compression Operations and Other Services. The CEO allocates resources and assesses performance of the two operating segments based upon discrete financial information at the operating segment level. Compression Operations consists of operating Company-owned and customer-owned compression infrastructure for its customers, pursuant to fixed-revenue contracts to enable the production, gathering and transportation of natural gas and oil. Other Services consists of a full range of contract services to support the needs of our customers including station construction, maintenance and overhaul, and other ancillary time and material-based offerings. See Note 19 (“Segments”) to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates and assumptions that impact these consolidated financial statements relate to, among other things, capitalized installation costs and commissioning costs, fair value of derivative instruments, estimates of cost to complete on revenue contracts with customers, grant date fair value for the share-based equity awards, forecasting of our income tax (provision) benefit and the valuation of deferred taxes and useful lives of and salvage value of property, plant and equipment. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with customer are satisfied. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products or providing services to our customers. See Note 3 (“Revenue Recognition”) for more detailed information about revenue recognition for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses Accounts receivables are recorded at their outstanding balances, net of any allowances for credit losses, if determined necessary. Accounts deemed uncollectible are applied against the allowance for credit losses. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received. There was $8.1 million and $0.9 million in allowance for credit losses at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We utilize an aging schedule to determine our allowance for credit losses, and measure expected credit losses on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The risk characteristics are assessed based on the financial strength of the customer and overall business climate in which customer operates. If a customer does not share similar risk characteristics with other customers, we evaluate the customer’s outstanding trade receivables for expected credit losses on an individual basis. Each reporting period, we reassess our customers’ risk profiles and determine the appropriate asset pool classification, or perform individual assessments of expected credit losses, based on the customers’ risk characteristics at the reporting date. Inventories Inventories consist of (i) non-serialized spare parts, fluids and other supplies consumed in the performance of revenue-generating services and parts and supplies inventory for the repair and maintenance of the Company’s equipment fleet; and (ii) serialized parts consisting of components inventory to support the Company’s equipment fleet. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Non-serialized inventories' cost is determined using weighted-average cost. Serialized inventories' cost is determined using the specific-identification cost method. The Company recognizes decreases in inventory values for certain items through reductions of carrying values to lower of cost or net realizable value on an as needed basis. Periodically, obsolescence reviews are performed on slow-moving inventories and reserves are established based on estimated shrinkage between physical inventory counts, changes in customer demand, technological developments, or other economic factors. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company wrote off inventory reserves of $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2021, there was no write off of inventory reserves. Property, Plant and Equipment, net Property, plant and equipment acquired in connection with business combinations are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition. All other additions of property, plant and equipment, which primarily consist of compression equipment, are recorded at cost. The Company depreciates the cost of property, plant and equipment using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the period. The cost of additions and improvements that extend the useful lives of property, plant and equipment beyond its original life are capitalized. Routine maintenance and repair items are charged to current operations. The Company uses estimates to capitalize installation costs associated with the transport, installation, and commissioning of each compressor unit. Costs associated with these estimates include all direct costs required to get the unit in service for its intended use such as labor, parts, materials, and any other services that are unique in nature to each individual compressor unit. Capitalized installation costs are depreciated over the life of the agreement with the customer. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets, including property, plant, and equipment, and other finite-lived identifiable intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, including the removal of compressors from the active fleet, indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Such events and changes may include significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results, significant changes in asset use, significant negative industry or economic trends, and changes in the Company’s business strategy, among others. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Impairment losses are recognized in the period in which the impairment occurs and represent the excess of the asset carrying value over its fair value. No impairment was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. In December 2021, certain compression equipment was identified as not being part of the Company’s ongoing operations. As such, a recoverability assessment was performed, and fair value was assessed using a combination of a market and cost approach. Based on the assessed fair value, an impairment expense of $9.1 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2021. Leases As a result of the Company’s adoption of Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842 Leases on January 1, 2022, the Company recorded an operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and an operating lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Under previous guidance, operating leases were not recorded to the balance sheet. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at commencement date. Operating leases are included in lease right-of-use assets, and operating lease liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. ROU lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available on the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. ROU lease assets also include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable costs such as the Company’s proportionate share of actual costs for utilities, common area maintenance, property taxes and insurance are not included in the lease liability and are recognized in the period in which they are incurred. For short-term leases (leases that have terms of twelve months or less upon commencement), lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis and no ROU assets are recorded. For certain equipment leases, such as office equipment, we have elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company has elected to apply the bright line thresholds as established under ASC 840 in determining the classification of leases under ASC 842 as an accounting policy election. As it relates to the Company’s compression operations service agreements, in which the Company is a lessor, the services' nonlease component is predominant over the compression package lease component and therefore recognition of these agreements follows the ASC 606 Revenue guidance. Identifiable Intangible Assets, net Identifiable intangible assets acquired in connection with business combinations are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition. The cost of identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which is the period over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows. The Company’s identifiable intangible assets consist of trade name and customer relationships. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition consideration paid over the fair value of net assets and liabilities acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather is reviewed for impairment on an annual basis (or more frequently if impairment indicators exist). The Company tests goodwill at the reporting unit level, which is the level for which there are distinct cash flows, products, capabilities and available financial information by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the carrying value of the entity exceeds its fair value. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had two reporting units; however, the entire goodwill balance was allocated to the Company’s Compression Operations reporting unit. The Company conducts an annual impairment test during the fourth quarter or more frequently if there are indicators that goodwill may be impaired. The Company first performs a qualitative assessment, and, if based on this assessment, it may be more likely than not that goodwill may be impaired then the Company must determine the fair value of the reporting unit and compare it to the reporting unit’s carrying value. Factors utilized in the qualitative assessment include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance and Company specific events. Fair value of the reporting unit is determined based on the present value of estimated cash flows using available information regarding expected cash flows of each reporting unit, discount rates and the expected long-term cash flow growth rates. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not impaired, and no further testing is performed. The Company records impairment when the carrying value exceeds the fair value and to the extent there is remaining goodwill in the reporting unit. The Company performed a qualitative test during its fourth quarter and noted that there were no events or circumstances occurring that indicated that the fair value of the Compression Operations reporting unit may be below its carrying amount. No goodwill impairment was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, or 2021. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgments, including a qualitative assessment to determine whether there are any impairment indicators, and determining the fair value of the reporting unit if an impairment indicator is present. A number of significant assumptions and estimates are involved in the application of the income approach to forecast future cash flows, including revenue and operating income growth rates, discount rates and other factors. While we believe that our estimates of current value are reasonable, if actual results differ from the estimates and judgments used including such items as future cash flows and the volatility inherent in markets which we serve, impairment charges against the carrying value of those assets could be required in the future. Stock-based Compensation Stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date of the share-based awards based on their fair value. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. We do not estimate expected forfeitures, but recognize them as they occur. See Note 12 (“Stockholders' Equity”) for additional information related to stock based compensation. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the Basic Weighted Average Shares Outstanding plus all potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company had 268,388 dilutive common shares outstanding. The Company did not have any dilutive common shares outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Debt Issuance Costs Costs incurred related to debt issuance are deferred and amortized over the term of the related debt using a method that approximates the effective interest rate method. Unamortized debt issuance costs are recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related loans on the consolidated balance sheets. Costs incurred in connection with revolving credit facilities are capitalized and amortized over the term of the loan. Derivative Instruments In accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC Topic 815”), the Company recognizes derivative instruments on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value and classifies them as current or long-term depending on the maturity of the derivative instrument and whether the net carrying value is in a net liability position. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and whether the Company has elected to designate the derivative as being in a hedging relationship. Currently, the Company’s interest rate swaps and interest rate collars are intended to economically hedge certain risks (“economic hedges”). The Company has elected not to apply hedge accounting to these instruments under ASC Topic 815 and does not enter into such instruments for speculative purposes; accordingly, all realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments have been recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as gain (loss) on derivatives. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Management is not aware of any changes in tax laws or rates that would have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, carryback potential if permitted under the tax law, and results of recent operations. The Company records a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. If the Company does not generate, or expect to generate, sufficient taxable income, we may not realize the full benefit from our deferred tax assets, which would require us to record a valuation allowance in our tax provision in future years. As of each reporting date, we consider new evidence to evaluate the realizability of our net deferred tax asset position by assessing the available positive and negative evidence. Changes to the valuation allowance are reflected in the statement of operations. If the Company determines that it would not be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future, in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would increase the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, which would increase the provision for income taxes. The Company applies a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. This approach only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than 50% percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. As a result of implementing this approach, the Company has reviewed its tax positions and determined there were no outstanding or retroactive tax positions with less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. The Company believes that there are no tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would significantly increase or decrease unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. None of the Company’s federal or state tax income tax returns are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or state authorities. However, fiscal years 2018 and later remain subject to examination by the IRS and respective states in the U.S. On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) was enacted into law. The IRA contained significant tax law changes, including a corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) of 15% on adjusted financial statement income for applicable corporations, and a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases after December 31, 2022. The IRA also extended certain federal tax credits and creates new tax credits to promote sustainability initiatives. The Company examined the IRA and determined that it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company will continue to monitor this legislation as additional guidance is issued by the U.S. Treasury Department. Fair Value Measurements The Company uses any of three valuation approaches to measure fair value: the market approach, the income approach, and the cost approach in determining the appropriate valuation methodologies based on the nature of the asset or liability being measured and the reliability of the inputs used in arriving at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. These fair value measurements incorporate nonperformance risk (i.e., the risk that an obligation will not be fulfilled) and credit risk. The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”) for non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis such as on a potential impairment loss related to goodwill and long-lived assets and assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. These measurements would be based on Level 3 inputs such as unobservable inputs, complex models, management estimates and sensitivity analysis. The inputs used in applying valuation techniques include assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (i.e., assumptions about risk). Inputs may be observable or unobservable. The Company uses observable inputs in the Company’s valuation techniques and classifies those inputs in accordance with the fair value hierarchy established by applicable accounting guidance, which prioritizes those inputs. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the valuation hierarchy are defined as follows: • Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. • Level 2 – Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly such as quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and which the Company makes its own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets and liabilities. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, derivative instruments and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are representative of their respective Level 1 fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company's long-term debt applies floating interest rates to outstanding amounts; therefore, the carrying amount of the ABL facility approximates its Level 3 fair value. The Company records derivative instruments at fair value using level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. The interest rate swaps and interest rate collar are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative using observable inputs including interest rate curves and credit spreads. See Note 10 (“Derivative Instruments”) and Note 11 (“Fair Value Measurements”) for more details. The contingent consideration liability from a prior year acquisition is measured at fair value each reporting period, using Level 3 unobservable inputs such as probability assessments of future cash flows, and changes in estimates of fair value are recognized in earnings. See Note 11 (“Fair Value Measurements”) for more details. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company’s assets that are potentially subject to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable and contract assets. Cash balances are maintained in financial institutions which at times exceed federally insured limits. The Company monitors the financial condition of the financial institutions in which accounts are maintained and has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The accounts receivable and contract assets of the Company are spread over a number of customers, a majority of which are operators and suppliers to the natural gas and oil industries. Major customers are defined as those individually comprising more than 10% of our revenues or accounts receivable, net balance. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, one customer comprised 12% of total revenues and all of these revenues were related to the Compression Operations segment. For the year ended December 31, 2021, two customers comprised 12% of total revenues each, and all of these revenues were related to the Compression Operations segment. As of December 31, 2023 one customer comprised 14% of the Company's accounts receivable, net balance. As of December 31, 2022, two customers each comprised 11% of the accounts receivable, net balance, respectively. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. Topic 326 states the Company is required to use an expected-loss model for its marketable debt securities, available-for sale, which requires that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as an impairment write-down. Reversals of credit losses (in situations in which the estimate of credit losses declines) is permitted in the reporting period that the change occurs. Current U.S. GAAP prohibits reflecting reversals of credit losses in current period earnings. The amendments in this update were adopted on January 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective approach and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments, (“ASU 2020-03”). ASU 2020-03 improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics, including the current expected credit loss standard (“CECL”). ASU 2020-03 includes seven different issues that describe the areas of improvement and the related amendments to GAAP, intended to make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. This guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2023. Upon adoption, the amendments do not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"), which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-07 is to be applied on a retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09, requires the annual financial statements to include consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company’s annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our disclosures. |
