Nature of Activities and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
1. Nature of Activities and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Nature of Activities and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Activities Founded in 2006, we own and operate a 65 million gallon per year ethanol production facility located in Keyes, California (the “Keyes Plant”). In addition to low carbon renewable fuel ethanol, the Keyes Plant produces Wet Distillers Grains (“WDG”), Distillers Corn Oil (“DCO”), and Condensed Distillers Solubles (“CDS”), all of which are sold to local dairies and feedlots as animal feed. We also own and operate a 50 million gallon per year renewable chemical and advanced fuel production facility (“Kakinada Plant”) on the East Coast of India that produces high quality distilled biodiesel and refined glycerin for customers in India and Europe. We operate a research and development laboratory to develop efficient conversion technologies using waste feedstocks to produce biofuels and biochemicals. Additionally, we own a partially completed plant in Goodland, Kansas (the “Goodland Plant”) through our subsidiary Goodland Advanced Fuels, Inc., (“GAFI”), which was formed to acquire the Goodland Plant. We also own and operate the Kakinada Plant with a nameplate capacity of 150 thousand metric tons per year, or about 50 million gallons per year. We believe the Kakinada Plant is one of the largest biodiesel production facilities in India on a nameplate capacity basis. The Kakinada Plant is capable of processing a variety of vegetable oils and animal fat waste feedstocks into biodiesel that meet international product standards. The Kakinada Plant also distills the crude glycerin byproduct from the biodiesel refining process into refined glycerin, which is sold to the pharmaceutical, personal care, paint, adhesive and other industries. During 2018, Aemetis Biogas, LLC (“ABGL”) was formed to construct bio-methane anaerobic digesters at local dairies near the Keyes Plant, many of whom also purchase WDG produced at the Keyes Plant. The digesters are connected via a pipeline owned by ABGL to a gas cleanup and compression unit being built at the Keyes Plant to produce Renewable Natural Gas (“RNG”). During the third quarter of 2020, ABGL completed construction on the first two dairy digesters along with the pipeline that carries bio-methane from these dairies to the Keyes Plant. Upon receiving the bio-methane from the dairies, impurities are removed, and the bio-methane is converted to RNG where it will be either injected into the local gas utility pipeline, supplied to a renewable compressed natural gas (“RCNG”) that will service local trucking fleets, or used as renewable energy at the Keyes Plant. During the first quarter of 2021, Aemetis announced its “Carbon Zero” biofuels production plants designed to produce biofuels, including renewable jet and diesel fuel utilizing cellulosic hydrogen and non-edible renewable oils sourced from existing Aemetis biofuels plants and other sources. The first plant, in Riverbank, California, “Carbon Zero 1”, is expected to utilize hydroelectric and other renewable power available onsite to produce 45 million gallons per year of jet fuel, renewable diesel, and other byproducts. The plant is expected to supply the aviation and truck markets with ultra-low carbon renewable fuels to reduce greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions and other pollutants associated with conventional petroleum-based fuels. The Company is continuing to develop a biomass-to-fuel technology to build a carbon zero production facility. By producing ultra-low carbon renewable fuels, the Company expects to capture higher value D3 RINs and California’s LCFS credits. D3 RINs have a higher value in the marketplace than D6 RINs due to D3 RINs’ relative scarcity and mandated pricing formula from the United States EPA. On April 1, 2021, Aemetis established a new subsidiary named Aemetis Carbon Capture, Inc. to build carbon sequestration projects to generate LCFS and IRS 45Q credits by injecting CO₂ into wells which are monitored for emissions to ensure the long-term sequestration of carbon underground. California’s Central Valley is well established as a major region for large-scale natural gas production and CO₂ injection projects due to the subsurface geologic formation that retains gases. During the second quarter of 2021, Aemetis has opened negotiations for the supply of 1.6 million metric tonnes (“MT”) per year of CO₂ for Carbon Capture and Sequestration (“CCS”) to be located at or near the two Aemetis renewable fuels plant sites in Central California near Modesto. It is anticipated that the capacity of each injection well site will be approximately one million metric tonnes per year, for a combined total of two million MT of CO₂ sequestration per year. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates Revenue Recognition North America: During the first quarter of 2020, Aemetis began selling high-grade alcohol for consumer applications directly to customers on the West Coast and Midwest using a variety of payment terms. These agreements and terms were evaluated according to ASC 606 guidance and such revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of the performance obligation by delivery of the product based on the terms of the agreement. Sales of high-grade alcohol were minimal for the second quarter and year to date revenue and were aggregated with ethanol sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Sales of high-grade alcohol represented 48% and 28% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The below table shows our sales in North America by product category: North America (in thousands) For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Ethanol and high-grade alcohol sales $ 42,169 $ 36,240 $ 72,089 $ 61,562 Wet distiller's grains sales 10,630 7,466 21,665 15,840 Other sales 1,931 1,517 3,304 3,693 $ 54,730 $ 45,223 $ 97,058 $ 81,095 We have elected to adopt the practical expedient that allows for ignoring the significant financing component of a contract when estimating the transaction price when the transfer of promised goods to the customer and customer payment for such goods are expected to be within one year of contract inception. Further, we have elected to adopt the practical expedient in which incremental costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when the amortization period would otherwise be less than one year. We also assessed principal versus agent criteria as we buy our feedstock from our customers and process and sell finished goods to those customers in certain contractual agreements. In North America, we buy corn as feedstock for the production of ethanol, from our working capital partner J.D. Heiskell. Prior to May 13, 2020, we sold all our ethanol, WDG, and corn oil to J.D. Heiskell. Subsequent to May 13, 2020, we sold most of our fuel ethanol to one customer, Kinergy, and sold all WDG and corn oil to J.D. Heiskell. During the second quarter, the Company signed a biofuels offtake agreement with Murex, LLC, and beginning on October 1, 2021 the Company will sell all of our fuel ethanol to that customer. We consider the purchase of corn as a cost of goods sold and the sale of ethanol, upon transfer to the common carrier, as revenue on the basis that (i) we control and bear the risk of gain or loss on the processing of corn which is purchased at market prices into ethanol and (ii) we have legal title to the goods during the processing time. The pricing for both corn and ethanol is set independently. Revenues from sales of ethanol and its co-products are billed net of the related transportation and marketing charges. The transportation component is accounted for in cost of goods sold and the marketing component is accounted for in sales, general and administrative expense. Transportation and marketing charges are known within days of the transaction and are recorded at the actual amounts. The Company has elected an accounting policy under which these charges have been treated as fulfillment activities provided after control has transferred. As a result, these charges are recognized in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, when revenue is recognized. Revenues are recorded at the gross invoiced amount. Hence, we are the principal in North America sales scenarios where our customer and vendor may be the same. We have a contract liability of $0.2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, in connection with a contract with a customer to sell carbon credit allowances. India: The below table shows our sales in India by product category: India (in thousands) For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Biodiesel sales $ 107 $ 2,149 $ 465 $ 4,942 Refined glycerin sales 9 370 125 460 PFAD sales - 62 - 774 Other sales 38 20 43 33 $ 154 $ 2,601 $ 633 $ 6,209 In India, we also assessed principal versus agent criteria as we buy our feedstock from our customers and process and sell finished goods to those same customers in certain contractual agreements. In those cases, we receive the legal title to feedstock from our customers once it is on our premises. We control the processing and production of biodiesel based on contract terms and specifications. The pricing for both feedstock and biodiesel is set independently. We hold the title and risk to biodiesel according to agreements when we enter into in these situations. Hence, we are the principal in India sales scenarios where our customer and vendor may be the same. Cost of Goods Sold Accounts Receivable. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for balances that appear to have specific collection issues. The collection process is based on the age of the invoice and requires attempted contacts with the customer at specified intervals. If, after a specified number of days, the Company has been unsuccessful in its collection efforts, a bad debt allowance is recorded for the balance in question. Delinquent accounts receivables are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once un-collectability has been determined. The factors considered in reaching this determination are the apparent financial condition of the customer and the Company’s success in contacting and negotiating with the customer. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. We reserved $1.4 million and $1.3 million in the allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Inventories Investments.

The CDFA grant reimburses the Company for costs required to permit and construct six of the Company’s biogas capture systems under contract with central California dairies. The Company has received $33 thousand from the CDFA 2020 grant program as of June 30, 2021 as reimbursement for actual costs incurred. Due to the uncertainty associated with the approval process under the grant program, the Company recognizes the grant as a reduction of the costs in the period when approval is received.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, interest capitalized in property, plant, and equipment was $1.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Construction in progress contains incurred costs for the ABGL biogas project, Riverbank project, and Zebrex equipment installation at the Keyes Plant. In the second quarter of 2020, the CO₂ Project commenced operations and was placed in service at that time. In the third quarter of 2020, two diary digesters commenced operations and were placed in service at that time. Spending for ongoing capital projects is accumulated in construction in progress and will be capitalized with subsequent depreciation once the capital projects are finished and are in service. Depreciation on the components of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows: Years Plant and buildings 20 - 30 Machinery and equipment 5 - 15 Furniture and fixtures 3 - 5 For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded depreciation expense of $1.4 and $1.2 million, respectively.

(“AAFK”), entered into an Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement with Third Eye Capital (the “Note Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, Third Eye Capital extended credit in the form of (i) senior secured term loans in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $7.2 million to replace existing notes held by Third Eye Capital (the “Term Notes”); (ii) senior secured revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount of $18.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”); (iii) senior secured term loans in the principal amount of $10.0 million to convert the prior revenue participation agreement to a note (the “Revenue Participation Term Notes”); and (iv) senior secured term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million (the “Acquisition Term Notes”) used to fund the cash portion of the acquisition of Cilion, Inc. (the Term Notes, Revolving Credit Facility, Revenue Participation Term Notes and Acquisition Term Notes are referred to herein collectively as the “Original Third Eye Capital Notes”). On April 1, 2020, the Company exercised the option to extend the maturity of Third Eye Capital Notes to April 1, 2021 for a fee of 1% of the outstanding note balance instead of agreed fee of 5% in Amendment No.14 to the Note Purchase Agreement. We have evaluated the reduction in extension fee to 1% in accordance with ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring. According to the guidance, we considered the 1% extension fee to be a troubled debt restructuring. On August 11, 2020, Third Eye Capital agreed to Limited Waiver and Amendment No. 17 to the Note Purchase Agreement (“Amendment No. 17”), to (i) provide that the maturity date of the Third Eye Capital Notes may be further extended at our election to April 1, 2022 in exchange for an extension fee equal to 1% of the Note Indebtedness in respect to each Note, provided that such fee may be added to the outstanding principal balance of each Note on the effective date of each such extension, (ii) provide for a waiver of the ratio of note indebtedness covenant for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021. As consideration for such amendment and waivers, the borrowers also agreed to pay Third Eye Capital an amendment and waiver fee of $0.3 million in cash (the “Amendment No. 17 Fee”). On November 5, 2020, Third Eye Capital agreed to Limited Waiver and Amendment No. 18 to the Note Purchase Agreement (“Amendment No. 18”) to provide for a waiver of the ratio of note indebtedness covenant for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. As consideration for such amendment and waivers, the borrowers also agreed to pay Third Eye Capital an amendment fee of $50 thousand. We have evaluated the 1% extension fee in Amendment No. 17, and the $50 thousand waiver fee in Amendment No. 18 in accordance with ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructuring According to the guidance, we considered the 1% extension fee in Amendment No.17 and the $50 thousand waiver fee in Amendment No. 18 to be troubled debt restructurings. In order to assess whether the creditor granted a concession, we calculated the post-restructuring effective interest rate by projecting cash flows on the new terms and calculated a discount rate equal to the carrying amount of pre-restructuring of debt, and by comparing this calculation to the terms of Amendment No. 15, we determined that Third Eye Capital provided a concession in accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-60 and thus applied troubled debt restructuring accounting, resulting in no gain or loss from the application of this accounting. Using the effective interest method of amortization, the 1% extension fee of $1.0 million and Amendment No. 17 Fee of $0.3 million are being amortized over the stated remaining life of the Third Eye Capital Notes. On February 27, 2019, a promissory note (the “February 2019 Note”, together with the Original Third Eye Capital Notes, the “Third Eye Capital Notes”) for $2.1 million was advanced by Third Eye Capital to Aemetis, Inc., as a short-term credit facility for working capital and other general corporate purposes with an interest rate of 14% per annum maturing on the earlier of (a) receipt of proceeds from any financing, refinancing, or other similar transaction, (b) extension of credit by payee, as lender or as agent on behalf of certain lenders, to the Company or its affiliates, or (c) April 30, 2019. In consideration of the February 2019 Note, $0.1 million of the total proceeds were paid to Third Eye Capital as financing charges. On April 30, 2019, the February 2019 Note was modified to remove the stated maturity date and instead be due on demand by Third Eye Capital. In third quarter of 2019, the February 2019 Note was modified to include additional borrowings of $0.7 million. In first quarter of 2020, the February 2019 Note was modified to include additional borrowings of $0.6 million. The February 2019 note was fully repaid in the first quarter of 2021. On March 14, 2021, Third Eye Capital agreed to Limited Waiver and Amendment No. 19 to the Note Purchase Agreement (“Amendment No. 19”), to (i) provide for a waiver of the ratio of note indebtedness covenant for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, (ii) provide for a waiver of the consolidated unfunded capital expenditures covenant for the quarters through March 31, 2021. As consideration for such amendment and waivers, the borrowers also agreed to pay Third Eye Capital an amendment and waiver fee of $0.1 million in cash (the “Amendment No. 19 Fee”). We gave the notice to extend the maturity date of the Notes to April 1, 2022 and the extension fee equal to 1% of the Note Indebtedness in respect to each Note, provided that half of such fee may be added to the outstanding principal balance of each Note on the effective date of each such extension and rest of the balance may be payable in cash or common stock within 60 days of the date of such relevant extension. We evaluated the terms of the Amendment No. 19 and the maturity date extension and applied modification accounting treatment in accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt - Modification and Extinguishment. On August 9, 2021, Third Eye Capital agreed to the Limited Waiver and Amendment No. 20 to the Note Purchase Agreement (“Amendment No. 20”) to: (i) provide that, upon written notice to Third Eye Capital, the maturity date may be further extended to April 1, 2023 in exchange for an extension fee equal to 1% of the Note Indebtedness in respect of each Note, where half of such fee may be added to the outstanding principal balance of each Note on the effective date of each such extension; (ii) provide for a waiver of the ratio of note indebtedness covenant for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2022; and (iii) provide for a waiver of the unfunded capital expenditures covenant for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 in which the Company exceeded the $100,000 capital expenditures limit. As consideration for such amendment and waivers, the borrowers also agreed to pay Third Eye Capital an amendment and waiver fee of $0.3 million in cash. We will evaluate the terms of the Amendment No.20 in accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt - Modification and Extinguishment. Based on prior amendments and Amendment No. 20, the ratio of note indebtedness covenant is waived for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 through December 31, 2022. According to ASC 470-10-45 Debt-Other Presentation Matters, if it is probable that the Company will not be able to cure the default at measurement dates within the next 12 months, the related debt needs to be classified as current. As Amendment No. 20 waived the ratio of the note indebtedness covenant over the next four quarters, the notes are classified as long-term debt. On March 6, 2020, we and a subsidiary entered into a one-year reserve liquidity facility governed by a promissory note, payable to Third Eye Capital, in the principal amount of $18 million. On March 14, 2021, Third Eye agreed to increase the amount available under the reserve liquidity facility to $70.0 million and extend the maturity date to April 1, 2022. Borrowings under the facility are available from March 14, 2021 until maturity on April 1, 2022. Interest on borrowed amounts accrues at a rate of 30% per annum, paid monthly in arrears and may be capitalized and due upon maturity, or 40% if an event of default has occurred and continues. The outstanding principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced by the promissory note, plus any accrued but unpaid interest and any other sums due thereunder, shall be due and payable in full at the earlier to occur of (a) receipt by the Company or its affiliates of proceeds from any sale, merger, equity or debt financing, refinancing or other similar transaction from any third party and (b) April 1, 2022. Any amounts may be re-borrowed up to repaid amounts up until the maturity date of April 1, 2022. The promissory note is secured by liens and security interests upon the property and assets of the Company. In return, the Company will pay a non-refundable standby fee at 2% per annum of the difference between the aggregate principal amount outstanding and the commitment, payable monthly in cash. In addition, if any initial advances are drawn under the facility, the Company will pay a non-refundable one-time fee in the amount of $0.5 million provided that such fee may be added to the principal amount of the promissory note on the date of such initial advance. On August 9, 2021, Third Eye Capital agreed to decrease the amount available under the reserve liquidity notes governed by a promissory note to $40.0 million. Terms of Third Eye Capital Notes A. Term Notes B. Revolving Credit Facility C. Revenue Participation Term Notes D. Acquisition Term Notes E. Reserve Liquidity Notes *The note maturity date can be extended by the Company to April 2023. As a condition to any such extension, the Company would be required to pay a fee of 1% of the carrying value of the debt which can be paid 50% in cash or common stock and 50% can be added to the outstanding debt. As a result of this ability to extend the maturity at the Company’s will, the Third Eye Capital Notes are classified as non-current debt. The Third Eye Capital Notes contain various covenants, including but not limited to, debt to plant value ratio, minimum production requirements, and restrictions on capital expenditures. The terms of the Third Eye Capital Notes allow the lender to accelerate the maturity in the occurrence of any event that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect, such as any change in the business, operations, or financial condition. The terms of the notes allow interest to be capitalized. The Third Eye Capital Notes are secured by first priority liens on all real and personal property of, and assignment of proceeds from all government grants and guarantees from the Company’s North American subsidiaries. The Third Eye Capital Notes all contain cross-collateral and cross-default provisions. McAfee Capital, LLC (“McAfee Capital”), owned by Eric McAfee, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, provided a guaranty of payment and performance secured by all of its Company shares. In addition, Eric McAfee provided a blanket lien on substantially all of his personal assets, and McAfee Capital provided a guarantee in the amount of $8.0 million. Cilion shareholder seller notes payable Subordinated Notes On July 1, 2021, the Subordinated Notes were amended to extend the maturity date until the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021; (ii) completion of an equity financing by AAFK or Aemetis, Inc. in an amount of not less than $25.0 million; or (iii) after the occurrence of an Event of Default, including failure to pay interest or principal when due and breaches of note covenants. A 10% cash extension fee was paid by adding the fee to the balance of the new note and warrants to purchase 113 thousand shares of common stock were granted with a term of two years and an exercise price of $0.01 per share. We will evaluate the July 1, 2021 amendment and the refinancing terms of the Subordinated Notes in accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt - Modification and Extinguishment At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had, in aggregate, the amount of $13.5 million and $12.7 million in principal and interest outstanding, respectively, under the Subordinated Notes. EB-5 promissory notes Advanced BioEnergy, LP arranges investments with foreign investors, who each make loans to the Keyes Plant in increments of $0.5 million. The Company has sold an aggregate principal amount of $36.0 million of EB-5 Notes under the EB-5 Phase I funding since 2012 to the date of this filing. As of June 30, 2021, $35.5 million has been released from the escrow amount to the Company, with $0.5 million remaining to be funded to escrow. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company paid principal amount of one of the EB-5 investors who obtained green card approval under the program. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 the Company repaid $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of the EB-5 Phase I funding. As of June 30, 2021, $34.5 million in principal and $3.7 million in accrued interest was outstanding on the EB-5 Notes sold under the EB-5 Phase I funding. On October 16, 2016, the Company launched its EB-5 Phase II funding, with plans to issue $50.0 million in additional EB-5 Notes on substantially similar terms and conditions as those issued under the Company’s EB-5 Phase I funding, to refinance indebtedness and capital expenditures of Aemetis, Inc. and GAFI (the “EB-5 Phase II funding”). On November 21, 2019, the minimum investment was raised from $0.5 million per investor to $0.9 million per investor. The Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated with Advanced BioEnergy II, LP, a California limited partnership authorized as a Regional Center to receive EB-5 Phase II funding investments, for the issuance of up to 100 EB-5 Notes bearing interest at 3%. On May 1, 2020 Supplement No. 3 amended the offering documents and lowered the total eligible new EB-5 Phase II funding investors to 60. Eight EB-5 investors have funded at the $0.5 million per investor amount, so 52 new EB-5 Phase II funding investors are eligible at the new $0.9 million per investor amount under the current offering. Job creation studies show it may be possible to add additional investors and increase the total offering amount in the future. Each new note will be issued in the principal amount of $0.9 million and due and payable five years from the date of each note, for a total aggregate principal amount of up to $50.8 million. Advanced BioEnergy II, LP arranges investments with foreign investors, who each make loans to the Riverbank Cellulosic Ethanol Facility in increments of $0.9 million after November 21, 2019. The Company has sold an aggregate principal amount of $4.0 million of EB-5 Notes under the EB-5 Phase II funding since 2016 to the date of this filing. As of June 30, 2021, $4.0 million has been released from escrow to the Company and $46.8 million remains to be funded to escrow. As of June 30, 2021, $4.2 million was outstanding on the EB-5 Notes under the EB-5 Phase II funding. Unsecured working capital loans In November 2008, the Company entered into an operating agreement with Secunderabad Oils Limited (“Secunderabad Oils”). The 2008 agreement provided the working capital and had the first priority lien on assets in return for 30% of the plant’s monthly net operating profit. These expenses were recognized as selling, general, and administrative expenses by the Company in the financials. All terms of the 2008 agreement with Secunderabad Oils were terminated to amend the agreement as below. On July 15, 2017, the agreement with Secunderabad Oils was amended to provide the working capital funds for British Petroleum business operations only in the form of inter-corporate deposit for an amount of approximately $2.3 million over a 95 day period at the rate of 14.75% per annum interest rate. The term of the agreement continues until either party terminates it. Secunderabad Oils has a second priority lien on the assets of the Company’s Kakinada Plant after this agreement. On April 15, 2018, the agreement was amended to purchase the raw material for business operations at 12% per annum interest rate. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company made principal and interest payments to Secunderabad Oils of none and approximately $0.6 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 the Company had no outstanding balance under this agreement. GAFI Term loan and Revolving loan. On June 28, 2018, GAFI entered into Amendment No. 1 to the GAFI Term Loan with Third Eye Capital for an additional amount of $1.5 million with a fee of $75 thousand added to the loan from Third Eye Capital at a 10% interest rate. On December 20, 2018, $1.6 million from Amendment No. 1 was repaid. Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, Aemetis, Inc. entered into a Stock Appreciation Rights Agreement to issue 1,050,000 Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) to Third Eye Capital on August 23, 2018, with an exercise date of one year from the issuance date with a call option for the Company at $2.00 per share during the first 11 months of the agreement either to pay $2.1 million in cash or issue common stock worth $2.1 million based on the 30-day weighted average price of the stock on the call date, and a put option for Third Eye Capital at $1.00 per share during the 11th month of the agreement where the Company can redeem the SARs for $1.1 million in cash. In the event that none of the above options is exercised, the SARs will be automatically exercised one year from the issuance date based upon the 30-day weighted average stock price and paid in cash and cash equivalents. On July 22, 2019, Third Eye Capital exercised the put option at $1.00 per share for $1.1 million. The exercise value of the SARs of $1.1 million was added to the GAFI Term Loan and the SARs fair value liability was released. The Company fully repaid the GAFI notes in the first quarter of 2021. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, GAFI had none and $22.2 million net of debt issuance costs of none and $0.4 million outstanding on the Term Loan and none and $11.8 million on the Revolving Loan respectively, classified as current portion of long-term debt.

5. Commitments and Contingencies | 5. Commitments and Contingencies Leases We have identified assets as the corporate office, warehouse, monitoring equipment and laboratory facilities over which we have control and obtain economic benefits fully. We classified these identified assets as operating leases after assessing the terms under classification guidance. We have entered into several leases for trailers and carbon units with purchase option at the end of the term. We have concluded that it is reasonably certain that we would exercise the purchase option at the end of the term, hence the leases were classified as finance leases. All of our leases have remaining term of less than a year to 8 years. When discount rates implicit in leases cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the applicable incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to perform lease classification tests on lease components and measure lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company was based on weighted average baseline rates commensurate with the Company’s secured borrowing rate over a similar term. At each reporting period, when there is a new lease initiated, the rates established for that quarter will be used. The components of lease expense and sublease income was as follows: Three Months ended June 30, Six Months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Operating lease cost Operating lease expense $ 204 $ 183 $ 408 $ 360 Short term lease expense 71 15 110 29 Variable lease expense 21 26 54 60 Total operating lease cost $ 296 $ 224 $ 572 $ 449 Finance lease cost Amortization of right-of-use assets $ 55 $ 61 $ 110 $ 61 Interest on lease liabilities 20 18 41 18 Total finance lease cost $ 75 $ 79 $ 151 $ 79 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Three Months ended June 30, Six Months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Operating cash flows used in operating leases $ 173 $ 138 $ 340 $ 317 Operating cash flows used in finance leases 20 18 41 18 Financing cash flows used in finance leases 124 702 248 702 Supplemental non-cash flow information related to ROU asset and lease liabilities was as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020: Three Months ended June 30, Six Months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Operating leases Accretion of the lease liability $ 96 $ 42 $ 195 $ 59 Amortization of right-of-use assets 108 142 213 302 Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term Operating leases 6.6 years Finance leases 2.8 years Weighted Average Discount Rate Operating leases 14.0 % Finance leases 5.6 % Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases was as follows: As of June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Operating leases Operating lease right-of-use assets $ 2,679 $ 2,889 Current portion of operating lease liability 310 316 Long term operating lease liability 2,443 2,578 Total operating lease liabilities 2,753 2,894 Finance leases Property and equipment, at cost $ 2,204 $ 2,308 Accumulated depreciation (255 ) (249 ) Property and equipment, net 1,949 2,059 Other current liability 426 417 Other long term liabilities 949 1,164 Total finance lease liabilities 1,375 1,581 Maturities of operating lease liabilities were as follows: Twelve Months ended June 30, Operating leases Finance leases 2021 $ 666 $ 494 2022 572 577 2023 581 414 2024 599 - 2025 617 - There after 1,236 - Total lease payments 4,271 1,485 Less imputed interest (1,518 ) (110 ) Total lease liability $ 2,753 $ 1,375 Property taxes The Company entered into a payment plan with Stanislaus County for unpaid property taxes for the Keyes Plant site on June 28, 2018 by paying $1.5 million as a first payment. Under the annual payment plan, the Company was set to pay 20% of the outstanding redemption amount, in addition to the current year property taxes and any interest incurred on the unpaid balance to date annually, on or before April 10 starting in 2019. After making one payment, Company defaulted on the payment plan and as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the balance in property tax accrual was $6.4 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Stanislaus County agreed not to enforce collection actions and we are now in discussions with Stanislaus County regarding a payment plan. Legal Proceedings On August 31, 2016, the Company filed a lawsuit in Santa Clara County Superior Court against defendant EdenIQ, Inc. (“EdenIQ”). The lawsuit was based on EdenIQ’s wrongful termination of a merger agreement that would have effectuated the merger of EdenIQ into a new entity that would be primarily owned by Aemetis. The lawsuit asserted that EdenIQ had fraudulently induced the Company into assisting EdenIQ to obtain EPA approval for a new technology that the Company would not have done but for the Company’s belief that the merger would occur. The relief sought included EdenIQ’s specific performance of the merger, monetary damages, as well as punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, and costs. In response to the lawsuit, EdenIQ filed a cross-complaint asserting causes of action relating to the Company’s alleged inability to consummate the merger, the Company’s interactions with EdenIQ’s business partners, and the Company’s use of EdenIQ’s name and trademark in association with publicity surrounding the merger. Further, EdenIQ named Third Eye Capital Corporation (“TEC”) as a defendant in a second amended cross-complaint alleging that TEC had failed to disclose that its financial commitment to fund the merger included terms that were not disclosed. Finally, EdenIQ claimed that TEC and the Company concealed material information surrounding the financing of the merger. By way of its cross-complaint, EdenIQ sought monetary damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief, attorneys’ fees and costs. In November 2018, the claims asserted by the Company were dismissed on summary judgment and the Company filed a motion to amend its claims, which remains pending. In December 2018, EdenIQ dismissed all of its claims prior to trial. In February 2019, the Company and EdenIQ each filed motions seeking reimbursement of attorney fees and costs associated with the litigation. On July 24, 2019, the court awarded EdenIQ a portion of the fees and costs it had sought in the amount of approximately $6.2 million. The Company recorded the $6.2 million as loss contingency on litigation during the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company’s ability to amend its claims and present its claims to the court or a jury could materially affect the court’s decision to award EdenIQ its fees and costs. In addition to further legal motions and a potential appeal of the Court’s summary judgment order, the Company plans to appeal the court’s award of EdenIQ’s fees and costs. The Company intends to continue to vigorously pursue its legal claims and defenses against EdenIQ. |

Biogas LLC Series A Preferred Financing | |
6. Biogas LLC - Series A Preferred Financing | 6. Biogas LLC - Series A Preferred Financing and Variable Interest Entity On December 20, 2018, ABGL entered into a Series A Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement for the sale of Series A Preferred Units to Protair-X Americas, Inc., with Third Eye Capital acting as an agent. ABGL is authorized to issue 11,000,000 common units, and up to 6,000,000 convertible, redeemable, secured, preferred membership units (the “Series A Preferred Units”). ABGL issued 6,000,000 common units to the Company at $5.00 per common unit for a total of $30,000,000 in funding. Additionally, 5,000,000 common units of ABGL are held in reserve as potential conversion units issuable to the Purchaser upon certain triggering events discussed below. The Preferred Unit Agreement includes (i) preference payments of $0.50 per unit on the outstanding Series A Preferred Units commencing on the second anniversary, with any outstanding preference payments shall have an interest per annum rate equal to ten percent (ii) conversion rights for up to 1,200,000 common units or up to maximum number of 5,000,000 common units (also at a one Series A Preferred Unit to one common unit basis) if certain triggering events occur, (iv) one board seat of the three available to be elected by Series A Preferred Unit holders, (iii) mandatory redemption value at $15 per unit payable at an amount equal to 75% of free cash flow generated by ABGL, up to $90 million in the aggregate (if all units are issued), (iv) full redemption of the units on the sixth anniversary, (v) minimum cash flow requirements from each digester, and (vi) $0.9 million paid as fees to the Agent from the proceeds. Until paid, the obligations of ABGL under the Preferred Unit Agreement are secured by the assets of ABGL in an amount not to exceed the sum of (i) $30,000,000, plus (ii) all interest, fees, charges, expenses, reimbursement obligations and indemnification obligations of ABGL. Triggering events occur upon ABGL’s failure to redeem units, comply with covenants, any other defaults or cross defaults, or to perform representations or warranties. Upon a triggering event: (i) the obligation of the Purchaser to purchase additional Series A Preferred Units is terminated, (ii) cash flow payments for redemption payments increases from 75% to 100% of free cash flows, and (iii) total number of common units into which preferred units may be converted increases from 1,200,000 common units to 5,000,000 common units on a one for one basis. As of June 30, 2021, ABGL has not generated minimum quarterly operating cash flows by operating the dairies. As a result of the violation of this covenant, free cash flows, when they occur, may be applied for redemption payments at the increased rate of 100% instead of the initial rate of 75% of free cash flows. From inception of the agreement to date, ABGL issued 3,200,000 Series A Preferred Units on first tranche for a value of $16.0 million and also issued 2,800,000 of Series A Preferred Units on second tranche for a value of $14.0 million, reduced by a redemption of 20,000 Series A Preferred Units for $0.3 million. The Company is accreting these two tranches to the redemption value of $89.7 million over the estimated future cash flow periods of six years using the effective interest method. In addition, the Company identified freestanding future tranche rights and the accelerated redemption feature related to a change in control provision as derivatives which required bifurcation. These derivative features were assessed to have minimal value as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 based on the evaluation of the other conditions included in the agreement. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, ABGL issued no Series A Preferred Units. The previous issuances are treated as a liability as the conversion option was deemed to be non-substantive. The Company recorded Series A Preferred Unit liabilities, net of unit issuance costs and inclusive of accretive preference pursuant to this agreement, and accrued preference payments, classified as current portion of Series A Preferred Units, of $1.6 million and $2.0 million, and long-term liabilities of $42.2 million and $32.0 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 the Company recorded Series A Preferred Units accretion expense of $2.9 million and $1.4 million and accrued preference payments expense of $1.6 million and none. This was partially offset by capitalized interest of $682 thousand. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 the Company recorded Series A Preferred Units accretion expense of $5.3 million and $2.3 million and accrued preference payments expense of $1.6 million and none. This was partially offset by capitalized interest of $1.2 million. Variable interest entity assessment After consideration of ABGL’s operations and the above agreement, we concluded that ABGL did not have enough equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. ABGL is capitalized with Series A Preferred Units that are recorded as liabilities under U.S. GAAP. Hence, we concluded that ABGL is a VIE. Through the Company’s ownership interest in all of the outstanding common stock, its current ability to control the board of directors, the management fee paid to Aemetis and control of subordinated financing decisions, Aemetis has been determined to be the primary beneficiary and accordingly, the assets, liabilities, and operations of ABGL are consolidated into those of the Company. Total assets of ABGL were $30.5 million primarily related to biodigesters at two dairies and a pipeline which serve as collateral for the Series A Preferred Unit totaling $43.8 million. The Series A Preferred Units are not collateralized by any other assets or guarantees from Aemetis or its subsidiaries. |

7. Stock Based Compensation | 7. Stock-Based Compensation 2019 Stock Plan On April 29, 2019, the Aemetis 2019 Stock Plan (the “2019 Stock Plan”) was approved by stockholders of the Company. This plan permits the grant of Incentive Stock Options, Non-Statutory Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units, Performance Shares and other stock or cash awards as the administrator of 2019 Stock plan may determine in its discretion. The 2019 Stock Plan’s term is 10 years and supersedes all prior plans. The 2019 Stock Plan authorized the issuance of 200,000 shares of common stock for the 2019 calendar year, in addition to permitting the transfer and grant of any available and unissued or expired options under the prior Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Plan in an amount up to 177,246 options. With the approval of the 2019 Stock Plan, the Zymetis 2006 Stock Plan and the Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Plan (the “Prior Plans,” and together with the 2019 Stock Plan, the “Stock Plans”) are terminated for granting any options under either plan. However, any options granted before the 2019 Stock Plan was approved will remain outstanding and can be exercised, and any expired options issued pursuant to the Prior Plans can be granted under the 2019 Stock Plan. On January 7, 2021, 945,000 incentive stock option grants were issued for employees and directors under the 2019 Stock Plan. In addition, 5,200 restricted stock award grants, with a fair value of $3.09 per award, were issued to the Company's board of directors (“Board”) with the restriction that this grant would satisfy board compensation fees. On April 8, 2021, 34,114 restricted stock award grants, with a fair value of $26.19 per award, were issued to the Board with the restriction that this grant would pay off outstanding accounts payable owed to the Board members. On June 3, 2021, 30,000 stock option grants were approved by the Board for new employees under the 2019 Stock Plan with 10 year term and 3 year vesting. As of June 30, 2021, 4.2 million options are outstanding under the Stock Plans.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded stock compensation expense in the amount of $1.1 million and $635 thousand, respectively. Valuation and Expense Information All issuances of stock options or other issuances of equity instruments to employees as the consideration for services received by us are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instrument issued. The fair value of options granted to employees is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. This valuation model for stock based compensation expense requires us to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the fair value of our common stock, the expected term (the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding), the volatility of our common stock, a risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. Under ASU 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payments Accounting During the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, 30,000 and 460,000 options were granted respectively. The weighted average fair value calculations for the options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are based on the following assumptions: For the three months ended June 30, Description 2021 2020 Dividend-yield 0 % 0 % Risk-free interest rate 1.30 % 0.39 % Expected volatility 122.81 % 87.09 % Expected life (years) 7 5 Market value per share on grant date $ 13.09 $ 0.60 Fair value per share on grant date $ 11.79 $ 0.41 As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $2.4 million of total unrecognized compensation expense for employees, which the Company will amortize over the 2.3 years of weighted average remaining term. |

12. Management's Plan | 12. Management’s Plans The accompanying financial statements have been prepared contemplating the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As a result of negative capital and negative operating results, and collateralization of substantially all of the company assets, the Company has been reliant on its senior secured lender to provide additional funding and has been required to remit substantially all excess cash from operations to the senior secured lender. In order to meet its obligations during the next twelve months, the Company will need to either refinance the Company’s debt or receive the continued cooperation of its senior lender. This dependence on the senior lender raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to pursue the following strategies to improve the course of the business. For the Keyes plant, we plan to operate the plant and continue to improve financial performance by adopting new technologies or process changes that allow for energy efficiency, cost reduction or revenue enhancements, execute upon awarded grants that improve energy and operational efficiencies resulting in lower cost, lower carbon demands and overall margin improvement. For the ABGL biogas project, we plan to operate the biogas digesters to capture and monetize biogas as well as continue to build new dairy digesters and extend the existing pipeline in order to capture the higher carbon credits available in California. Funding for continued construction is based upon extending the existing Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement, obtaining government guaranteed loans and executing on existing and new state grant programs. For the Riverbank project, we plan to raise the funds necessary to construct and operate the Carbon Zero 1 plant and the Riverbank Cellulosic Ethanol Facility using loan guarantees and public financings based upon the licensed technology that generate federal and state carbon credits available for ultra-low carbon fuels utilizing lower cost, non-food advanced feedstocks to significantly increase margins. For the India plant, we plan to secure higher volumes of shipments of fuels at the India plant by developing the sales channels and expanding the existing domestic markets. In addition to the above we plan to continue to locate funding for existing and new business opportunities through a combination of working with our senior lender, restructuring existing loan agreements, selling equity through the ATM and otherwise, selling the current EB-5 Phase II offering, or by vendor financing arrangements. |

Nature of Activities and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
Nature of Activities | Nature of Activities Founded in 2006, we own and operate a 65 million gallon per year ethanol production facility located in Keyes, California (the “Keyes Plant”). In addition to low carbon renewable fuel ethanol, the Keyes Plant produces Wet Distillers Grains (“WDG”), Distillers Corn Oil (“DCO”), and Condensed Distillers Solubles (“CDS”), all of which are sold to local dairies and feedlots as animal feed. We also own and operate a 50 million gallon per year renewable chemical and advanced fuel production facility (“Kakinada Plant”) on the East Coast of India that produces high quality distilled biodiesel and refined glycerin for customers in India and Europe. We operate a research and development laboratory to develop efficient conversion technologies using waste feedstocks to produce biofuels and biochemicals. Additionally, we own a partially completed plant in Goodland, Kansas (the “Goodland Plant”) through our subsidiary Goodland Advanced Fuels, Inc., (“GAFI”), which was formed to acquire the Goodland Plant. We also own and operate the Kakinada Plant with a nameplate capacity of 150 thousand metric tons per year, or about 50 million gallons per year. We believe the Kakinada Plant is one of the largest biodiesel production facilities in India on a nameplate capacity basis. The Kakinada Plant is capable of processing a variety of vegetable oils and animal fat waste feedstocks into biodiesel that meet international product standards. The Kakinada Plant also distills the crude glycerin byproduct from the biodiesel refining process into refined glycerin, which is sold to the pharmaceutical, personal care, paint, adhesive and other industries. During 2018, Aemetis Biogas, LLC (“ABGL”) was formed to construct bio-methane anaerobic digesters at local dairies near the Keyes Plant, many of whom also purchase WDG produced at the Keyes Plant. The digesters are connected via a pipeline owned by ABGL to a gas cleanup and compression unit being built at the Keyes Plant to produce Renewable Natural Gas (“RNG”). During the third quarter of 2020, ABGL completed construction on the first two dairy digesters along with the pipeline that carries bio-methane from these dairies to the Keyes Plant. Upon receiving the bio-methane from the dairies, impurities are removed, and the bio-methane is converted to RNG where it will be either injected into the local gas utility pipeline, supplied to a renewable compressed natural gas (“RCNG”) that will service local trucking fleets, or used as renewable energy at the Keyes Plant. During the first quarter of 2021, Aemetis announced its “Carbon Zero” biofuels production plants designed to produce biofuels, including renewable jet and diesel fuel utilizing cellulosic hydrogen and non-edible renewable oils sourced from existing Aemetis biofuels plants and other sources. The first plant, in Riverbank, California, “Carbon Zero 1”, is expected to utilize hydroelectric and other renewable power available onsite to produce 45 million gallons per year of jet fuel, renewable diesel, and other byproducts. The plant is expected to supply the aviation and truck markets with ultra-low carbon renewable fuels to reduce greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions and other pollutants associated with conventional petroleum-based fuels. The Company is continuing to develop a biomass-to-fuel technology to build a carbon zero production facility. By producing ultra-low carbon renewable fuels, the Company expects to capture higher value D3 RINs and California’s LCFS credits. D3 RINs have a higher value in the marketplace than D6 RINs due to D3 RINs’ relative scarcity and mandated pricing formula from the United States EPA. On April 1, 2021, Aemetis established a new subsidiary named Aemetis Carbon Capture, Inc. to build carbon sequestration projects to generate LCFS and IRS 45Q credits by injecting CO₂ into wells which are monitored for emissions to ensure the long-term sequestration of carbon underground. California’s Central Valley is well established as a major region for large-scale natural gas production and CO₂ injection projects due to the subsurface geologic formation that retains gases. During the second quarter of 2021, Aemetis has opened negotiations for the supply of 1.6 million metric tonnes (“MT”) per year of CO₂ for Carbon Capture and Sequestration (“CCS”) to be located at or near the two Aemetis renewable fuels plant sites in Central California near Modesto. It is anticipated that the capacity of each injection well site will be approximately one million metric tonnes per year, for a combined total of two million MT of CO₂ sequestration per year. |

Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition North America: During the first quarter of 2020, Aemetis began selling high-grade alcohol for consumer applications directly to customers on the West Coast and Midwest using a variety of payment terms. These agreements and terms were evaluated according to ASC 606 guidance and such revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of the performance obligation by delivery of the product based on the terms of the agreement. Sales of high-grade alcohol were minimal for the second quarter and year to date revenue and were aggregated with ethanol sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Sales of high-grade alcohol represented 48% and 28% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The below table shows our sales in North America by product category: North America (in thousands) For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Ethanol and high-grade alcohol sales $ 42,169 $ 36,240 $ 72,089 $ 61,562 Wet distiller's grains sales 10,630 7,466 21,665 15,840 Other sales 1,931 1,517 3,304 3,693 $ 54,730 $ 45,223 $ 97,058 $ 81,095 We have elected to adopt the practical expedient that allows for ignoring the significant financing component of a contract when estimating the transaction price when the transfer of promised goods to the customer and customer payment for such goods are expected to be within one year of contract inception. Further, we have elected to adopt the practical expedient in which incremental costs of obtaining a contract are expensed when the amortization period would otherwise be less than one year. We also assessed principal versus agent criteria as we buy our feedstock from our customers and process and sell finished goods to those customers in certain contractual agreements. In North America, we buy corn as feedstock for the production of ethanol, from our working capital partner J.D. Heiskell. Prior to May 13, 2020, we sold all our ethanol, WDG, and corn oil to J.D. Heiskell. Subsequent to May 13, 2020, we sold most of our fuel ethanol to one customer, Kinergy, and sold all WDG and corn oil to J.D. Heiskell. During the second quarter, the Company signed a biofuels offtake agreement with Murex, LLC, and beginning on October 1, 2021 the Company will sell all of our fuel ethanol to that customer. We consider the purchase of corn as a cost of goods sold and the sale of ethanol, upon transfer to the common carrier, as revenue on the basis that (i) we control and bear the risk of gain or loss on the processing of corn which is purchased at market prices into ethanol and (ii) we have legal title to the goods during the processing time. The pricing for both corn and ethanol is set independently. Revenues from sales of ethanol and its co-products are billed net of the related transportation and marketing charges. The transportation component is accounted for in cost of goods sold and the marketing component is accounted for in sales, general and administrative expense. Transportation and marketing charges are known within days of the transaction and are recorded at the actual amounts. The Company has elected an accounting policy under which these charges have been treated as fulfillment activities provided after control has transferred. As a result, these charges are recognized in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, when revenue is recognized. Revenues are recorded at the gross invoiced amount. Hence, we are the principal in North America sales scenarios where our customer and vendor may be the same. We have a contract liability of $0.2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, in connection with a contract with a customer to sell carbon credit allowances. India: The below table shows our sales in India by product category: India (in thousands) For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Biodiesel sales $ 107 $ 2,149 $ 465 $ 4,942 Refined glycerin sales 9 370 125 460 PFAD sales - 62 - 774 Other sales 38 20 43 33 $ 154 $ 2,601 $ 633 $ 6,209 In India, we also assessed principal versus agent criteria as we buy our feedstock from our customers and process and sell finished goods to those same customers in certain contractual agreements. In those cases, we receive the legal title to feedstock from our customers once it is on our premises. We control the processing and production of biodiesel based on contract terms and specifications. The pricing for both feedstock and biodiesel is set independently. We hold the title and risk to biodiesel according to agreements when we enter into in these situations. Hence, we are the principal in India sales scenarios where our customer and vendor may be the same. |
Cost of Goods Sold | Cost of Goods Sold |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for balances that appear to have specific collection issues. The collection process is based on the age of the invoice and requires attempted contacts with the customer at specified intervals. If, after a specified number of days, the Company has been unsuccessful in its collection efforts, a bad debt allowance is recorded for the balance in question. Delinquent accounts receivables are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once un-collectability has been determined. The factors considered in reaching this determination are the apparent financial condition of the customer and the Company’s success in contacting and negotiating with the customer. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. We reserved $1.4 million and $1.3 million in the allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. |
