MYR GROUP INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation
Interim Consolidated Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows with respect to the interim consolidated financial statements, have been included. Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. The results of operations and comprehensive income are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or the results for any future periods. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on February 23, 2022 (the "2021 Annual Report").
Joint Ventures and Noncontrolling Interests
The Company accounts for investments in joint ventures using the proportionate consolidation method for income statement reporting and under the equity method for balance sheet reporting, unless the Company has a controlling interest causing the joint venture to be consolidated with equity owned by other joint venture partners recorded as noncontrolling interests. Under the proportionate consolidation method, joint venture activity is allocated to the appropriate line items found on the consolidated statements of operations in proportion to the percentage of participation the Company has in the joint venture. Under the equity method the net investment in joint ventures is stated as a single item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. If an investment in a joint venture contains a recourse or unfunded commitments to provide additional equity, distributions and/or losses in excess of the investment, a liability is recorded in other current liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
For joint ventures in which the Company does not have a controlling interest, the Company’s share of any profits and assets and its share of any losses and liabilities are recognized based on the Company’s stated percentage partnership interest in the joint venture, and are normally recorded by the Company one month in arrears. The investments in joint ventures are recorded at cost and the carrying amounts are adjusted to recognize the Company’s proportionate share of cumulative income or loss, additional contributions made and dividends and capital distributions received. The Company records the effect of any impairment or any other-than-temporary decrease in the value of the joint venture investment as incurred, which may or may not be one month in arrears, depending on when the Company obtains the joint venture activity information. Additionally, the Company continually assesses the fair value of its investment in unconsolidated joint ventures despite using information that is one month in arrears for regular reporting purposes. The Company includes only its percentage ownership of each joint venture in its backlog.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency for the Company’s Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars are translated into U.S. dollars at the end-of-period exchange rate. Revenues and expenses are translated using average exchange rates for the periods reported. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Cumulative translation adjustments are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, arising primarily from changes in exchange rates on short-term monetary assets and liabilities, and ineffective long-term monetary assets and liabilities are recorded in the “other income (expense), net” line on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Foreign currency losses, recorded in other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were not significant. Foreign currency losses, recorded in other income, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $0.1 million. Effective foreign currency transaction gains and losses, arising primarily from long-term monetary assets and liabilities, are recorded in the foreign currency translation adjustment line on the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The most significant estimates are related to estimates of costs to complete contracts, pending change orders and claims, shared savings, insurance reserves, income tax reserves, estimates surrounding stock-based compensation, acquisition-related contingent earn-out consideration liabilities, the recoverability of goodwill and intangibles and allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates a cost accrual every quarter that represents costs incurred but not invoiced for services performed or goods delivered during the period, and estimates revenue from the contract cost portion of these accruals based on current gross margin rates to be consistent with its cost method of revenue recognition.
As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had recognized revenues of $12.5 million and $6.0 million, respectively, related to large change orders and/or claims that had been included as contract price adjustments on certain contracts, some of which are multi-year projects. These change orders and/or claims are in the process of being negotiated in the normal course of business, and a portion of these recognized revenues had been included in multiple periods.
The cost-to-cost method of accounting requires the Company to make estimates about the expected revenue and gross profit on each of its contracts in process. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects decreased consolidated gross margin by 0.1%, which resulted in decreases in operating income of $0.5 million, net income of $0.3 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.02. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects increased consolidated gross margin by 0.3%, which resulted in increases in operating income of $3.7 million, net income of $2.5 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.15.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects increased consolidated gross margin by 0.8%, which resulted in increases in operating income of $5.1 million, net income of $3.6 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.21. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, changes in estimates pertaining to certain projects increased consolidated gross margin by 0.3%, which resulted in increases in operating income of $3.9 million, net income of $2.7 million and diluted earnings per common share of $0.16.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to U.S. GAAP are typically established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. The Company, based on its assessment, determined that any recently issued or proposed ASUs not listed below are either not applicable to the Company or adoption will have minimal impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which is intended to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to the recognition of an acquired contract liability and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. Under the new guidance the acquirer is required to recognize contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606 as if the acquirer had originated the contracts. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period, for any period for which financial statements have not yet been issued. However, adoption in an interim period other than the first fiscal quarter requires an entity to apply the new guidance to all prior business combinations that have occurred since the beginning of the annual period in which the new guidance is adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the adoption date and impact, if any, this update will have on its financial position and results of operations.
2. Acquisition
Powerline Plus Ltd
On January 4, 2022, the Company acquired all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Powerline Plus Ltd. and its affiliate PLP Redimix Ltd. (collectively, the “Powerline Plus Companies"), a full-service electrical distribution construction company based in Toronto, Ontario. Consideration paid, funded through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Facility (as defined below), was $110.6 million, net of cash acquired, and is subject to working capital and net asset adjustments. Additionally, the acquisition includes contingent earn-out consideration that may be payable if the Powerline Plus Companies achieve certain performance targets over a three-year post-acquisition period. As of the acquisition date, the fair value of the contingent earn-out consideration was $10.6 million. The future payout of the contingent earn-out consideration, if any, is unlimited and could be significantly higher than the acquisition date fair value. If the minimum thresholds of the performance targets are achieved the contingent earn-out consideration payment will be approximately $17.7 million. There were no changes in contingent earn-out consideration, subsequent to the acquisition, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The results of the Powerline Plus Companies is included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning on the transaction date. Approximately $0.2 million of acquisition-related costs associated with this acquisition were expensed by the Company during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
The purchase agreement also includes contingent consideration provisions for down-side margin guarantee adjustments based upon certain contract performance subsequent to the acquisition. The contracts were valued at fair value at the acquisition date, causing no margin guarantee estimate or adjustments for fair value. Unfavorable changes in contract estimates, such as modified costs to complete or change order recognition, will result in changes to these margin guarantee estimates. Changes in margin guarantee adjustments on contracts, subsequent to the acquisition, were recorded in other income and were not significant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Future margin guarantee adjustments, if any, are expected to be recognized through 2022 and possibly in early 2023.
The following table summarizes the allocation of the opening balance sheet as of the date of the Powerline Plus Companies acquisition through June 30, 2022: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The Company has developed preliminary estimates of fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the purposes of allocating the purchase price. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded certain measurement period adjustments related to various working capital and deferred tax accounts determined during our purchase price allocation procedures. The goodwill to be recognized, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the net amount of the fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, is primarily attributable to the value of an assembled workforce and other non-identifiable assets. No synergies were anticipated in the acquisition as the Powerline Plus Companies will function as an individual business within the Company’s operating structure. Further adjustments are expected to the allocation as third party valuations of contingent earn-out consideration, acquired right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and identifiable intangible assets, including backlog, customer relationships, trade name and off-market component, are determined, and as net asset adjustments are finalized. Additionally, the Company is currently performing an analysis of the purchase price allocation and will make appropriate adjustments based on the analysis. A portion of the goodwill and identifiable intangible assets are expected to be tax deductible per applicable Canadian Revenue Authority regulations.
3. Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contracts with customers usually stipulate the timing of payment, which is defined by the terms found within the various contracts under which work was performed during the period. Therefore, contract assets and liabilities are created when the timing of costs incurred on work performed does not coincide with the billing terms, which frequently include retention provisions contained in each contract.
The Company’s consolidated balance sheets present contract assets, which contain unbilled revenue and contract retainages associated with contract work that has been completed and billed but not paid by customers, pursuant to retainage provisions, that are generally due once the job is completed and approved. The allowance for doubtful accounts associated with contract assets was $0.5 million as of June 30, 2022 and $0.4 million as of December 31, 2021.
Contract assets consisted of the following:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in thousands) | | June 30, 2022 | | December 31, 2021 | | Change |
Unbilled revenue, net | | $ | 165,839 | | | $ | 134,187 | | | $ | 31,652 | |
Contract retainages, net | | 114,879 | | | 90,888 | | | 23,991 | |
Contract assets, net | | $ | 280,718 | | | $ | 225,075 | | | $ | 55,643 | |
The Company’s consolidated balance sheets present contract liabilities which contain deferred revenue and an accrual for contracts in a loss provision.

The difference between the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract assets and contract liabilities primarily results from the timing of the Company’s billings in relation to its performance of work. The amounts of revenue recognized in the period that were included in the opening contract liability balances were $25.8 million and $58.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The amounts of revenue recognized in the period that were included in the opening contract liability balances were $22.3 million and $73.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

4. Lease Obligations
From time-to-time, the Company enters into non-cancelable leases for some of our facility, vehicle and equipment needs. These leases allow the Company to conserve cash by paying a monthly lease rental fee for the use of facilities, vehicles and equipment rather than purchasing them. The Company’s leases have remaining terms ranging from one to seven years, some of which may include options to extend the leases for up to five years, and some of which may include options to terminate the leases within one year. Currently, all the Company’s leases contain fixed payment terms. The Company may decide to cancel or terminate a lease before the end of its term, in which case we are typically liable to the lessor for the remaining lease payments under the term of the lease. Additionally, all of the Company's month-to-month leases are cancelable, by the Company or the lessor, at any time and are not included in our right-of-use asset or liability. At June 30, 2022, the Company had several leases with residual value guarantees. Typically, the Company has purchase options on the equipment underlying its long-term leases and many of its short-term rental arrangements. The Company may exercise some of these purchase options when the need for equipment is on-going and the purchase option price is attractive. Leases are accounted for as operating or finance leases, depending on the terms of the lease.
The following is a summary of the lease-related assets and liabilities recorded:

Certain subsidiaries of the Company have operating leases for facilities from third party companies that are owned, in whole or part, by employees of the subsidiaries. The terms and rental rates of these leases are at or below market rental rates. As of June 30, 2022, the minimum lease payments required under these leases totaled $7.9 million, which are due over the next 4.5 years.
5. Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses the three-tier hierarchy of fair value measurement, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value based upon their degree of availability in external active markets. These tiers include: Level 1 (the highest priority), defined as observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3 (the lowest priority), defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company determined that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximated fair value based on Level 1 inputs. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair values of the Company’s long-term debt and finance lease obligations were based on Level 2 inputs. The Company’s long-term debt was based on variable and fixed interest rates at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, for new issues with similar remaining maturities, and approximated carrying value. In addition, based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms, the carrying values of the Company’s finance lease obligations also approximated fair value.
As of June 30, 2022, the fair values of the Company’s contingent earn-out consideration liability associated with the acquisition of the Powerline Plus Companies was based on Level 3 inputs. The contingent earn-out consideration recorded represent the estimated fair values of future amounts potentially payable to the former owners of the acquired Powerline Plus Companies and was initially determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation methodology based on probability-weighted performance projections and other inputs, including a discount rate and an expected volatility factor. The fair value of this contingent earn-out consideration liability will be evaluated on an ongoing basis by management. Accordingly, the level of inputs used for these fair value measurements is the lowest level (Level 3). Significant changes in any of these assumptions could result in a significantly higher or lower potential liability.

Credit Agreement
On September 13, 2019, the Company entered into a five-year amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A, that provides for a $375 million facility (the “Facility”), subject to certain financial covenants as defined in the Credit Agreement, that may be used for revolving loans of which $150 million may be used for letters of credit. The Facility also allows for revolving loans and letters of credit in Canadian dollars and other currencies, up to the U.S. dollar equivalent of $75 million. The Company has an expansion option to increase the commitments under the Facility or enter into incremental term loans, subject to certain conditions, by up to an additional $200 million upon receipt of additional commitments from new or existing lenders. Subject to certain exceptions, the Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, and by a pledge of substantially all of the capital stock of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of the direct foreign subsidiaries of the Company. Additionally, subject to certain exceptions, the Company’s domestic subsidiaries also guarantee the repayment of all amounts due under the Credit Agreement. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, amounts outstanding under the Facility may be accelerated and may become or be declared immediately due and payable. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are used for refinancing existing indebtedness, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, share repurchases, and other general corporate purposes.
Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (1) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75%; or (2) Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.75%. The applicable margin is determined based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (the “Leverage Ratio”) which is defined in the Credit Agreement as Consolidated Total Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Letters of credit issued under the Facility are subject to a letter of credit fee of 1.00% to 1.75% for non-performance letters of credit or 0.50% to 0.875% for performance letters of credit, based on the Company’s consolidated Leverage Ratio. The Company is subject to a commitment fee of 0.15% to 0.25%, based on the Company’s consolidated Leverage Ratio, on any unused portion of the Facility. The Credit Agreement restricts certain types of payments when the Company’s consolidated Leverage Ratio exceeds 2.50 or the Company's consolidated Liquidity (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than $50 million. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding on the Facility for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 1.67% per annum.
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to certain financial covenants and is limited to a maximum consolidated Leverage Ratio of 3.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0, which is defined in the Credit Agreement as Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by interest expense (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement also contains covenants including limitations on asset sales, investments, indebtedness and liens. The Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $51.4 million of debt outstanding under the Facility and letters of credit outstanding under the Facility of approximately $13.3 million, which are almost entirely related to the Company's payment obligation under its insurance programs.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company had no debt outstanding under the Facility and letters of credit outstanding under the Facility of approximately $12.3 million, which are almost entirely related to the Company's payment obligation under its insurance programs.
The Company had remaining deferred debt issuance costs totaling $0.7 million as of June 30, 2022, related to the line of credit. As permitted, debt issuance costs have been deferred and are presented as an asset within other assets, which is amortized as interest expense over the term of the line of credit.
Equipment Notes
The Company has entered into Master Equipment Loan and Security Agreements (the “Master Loan Agreements”) with multiple finance companies. The Master Loan Agreements may be used for the financing of equipment between the Company and the lenders pursuant to one or more equipment notes ("Equipment Note"). Each Equipment Note executed under the Master Loan Agreements constitutes a separate, distinct and independent financing of equipment and a contractual obligation of the Company, which may contain prepayment clauses.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had one Equipment Note outstanding under the Master Loan Agreements that is collateralized by equipment and vehicles owned by the Company. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had one other equipment note outstanding that is collateralized by a vehicle owned by the Company. The following table sets forth our remaining principal payments for all of the Company’s outstanding equipment notes as of June 30, 2022:

7. Revenue Recognition
Disaggregation of Revenue
A majority of the Company’s revenues are earned through contracts with customers that normally provide for payment upon completion of specified work or units of work as identified in the contract. Although there is considerable variation in the terms of these contracts, they are primarily structured as fixed-price contracts, under which the Company agrees to perform a defined scope of a project for a fixed amount, or unit-price contracts, under which the Company agrees to do the work at a fixed price per unit of work as specified in the contract. The Company also enters into time-and-equipment and time-and-materials contracts under which the Company is paid for labor and equipment at negotiated hourly billing rates and for other expenses, including materials, as incurred at rates agreed to in the contract. Finally, the Company sometimes enters into cost-plus contracts, where the Company is paid for costs plus a negotiated margin. On occasion, time-and-equipment, time-and-materials and cost-plus contracts require the Company to include a guaranteed not-to-exceed maximum price.
Historically, fixed-price and unit-price contracts have had the highest potential margins; however, they have had a greater risk in terms of profitability because cost overruns may not be recoverable. Time-and-equipment, time-and-materials and cost-plus contracts have historically had less margin upside, but generally have had a lower risk of cost overruns. The Company also provides services under master service agreements (“MSAs”) and other variable-term service agreements. MSAs normally cover maintenance, upgrade and extension services, as well as new construction. Work performed under MSAs is typically billed on a unit-price, time-and-materials or time-and-equipment basis. MSAs are typically one to three years in duration; however, most of the Company’s contracts, including MSAs, may be terminated by the customer on short notice, typically 30 to 90 days, even if the Company is not in default under the contract. Under MSAs, customers generally agree to use the Company for certain services in a specified geographic region. Most MSAs include no obligation for the contract counterparty to assign specific volumes of work to the Company and do not require the counterparty to use the Company exclusively, although in some cases the MSA contract gives the Company a right of first refusal for certain work. Additional information related to the Company’s market types is provided in Note 11–Segment Information.

Remaining Performance Obligations
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $2.31 billion of remaining performance obligations. The Company’s remaining performance obligations include projects that have a written award, a letter of intent, a notice to proceed or an agreed upon work order to perform work on mutually accepted terms and conditions.
The following table summarizes the amount of remaining performance obligations as of June 30, 2022 that the Company expects to be realized and the amount of the remaining performance obligations that the Company reasonably estimates will not be recognized within the next twelve months.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Remaining Performance Obligations at June 30, 2022 | | |
(in thousands) | | Total | | Amount estimated to not be recognized within 12 months | | Total at December 31, 2021 |
T&D | | $ | 940,866 | | | $ | 136,308 | | | $ | 572,032 | |
C&I | | 1,371,718 | | | 490,386 | | | 1,105,866 | |
Total | | $ | 2,312,584 | | | $ | 626,694 | | | $ | 1,677,898 | |
The Company expects the vast majority of the remaining performance obligations to be recognized within twenty-four months, although the timing of the Company’s performance is not always under its control. Additionally, the difference between the remaining performance obligations and backlog is due to the exclusion of a portion of the Company’s MSAs under certain contract types from the Company’s remaining performance obligations as these contracts can be canceled for convenience at any time by the Company or the customer without considerable cost incurred by the customer. Additional information related to backlog is provided in Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
8. Income Taxes
The U.S. federal statutory tax rate was 21% for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was 29.4% and 22.8%, respectively, of pretax income compared to the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 of 27.0% and 26.6%, respectively.
The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to state income taxes, foreign earnings and other permanent difference items.
The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to state income taxes, foreign earnings and other permanent difference items partially offset by a favorable impact from stock compensation excess tax benefits.
The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, was primarily due to state income taxes and foreign earnings and the associated impact of the global intangible low tax income ("GILTI") and other permanent difference items, partially offset by a favorable impact from stock compensation excess tax benefits.
The Company had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $0.4 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, which were included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities as a component of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The amount of interest and penalties charged to income tax expense related to unrecognized tax benefits was not significant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions. The Company’s 2018 through 2020 tax returns are subject to examination by U.S. federal authorities. The Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by various state authorities for the years 2017 through 2020.
9. Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Commitments
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $14.3 million in outstanding purchase orders for certain construction equipment, with cash payments scheduled to occur over the next seven months.
Insurance and Claims Accruals
The Company carries insurance policies, which are subject to certain deductibles and limits, for workers’ compensation, general liability, automobile liability and other insurance coverage. The deductible per occurrence for each line of coverage is up to $1.0 million, except for wildfire coverage which has a deductible of $2.0 million. The Company also maintains excess umbrella coverage providing higher layers of insurance coverage for losses that exhaust the limits of underlying coverage. A layer of this umbrella coverage requires the Company to pay a portion of any loss within a certain loss range and our potential exposure for such losses is up to approximately $3.8 million. The Company’s health benefit plans are subject to stop-loss limits of up to $0.2 million for qualified individuals. Losses up to the deductible and stop-loss amounts are accrued based upon the Company’s estimates of the ultimate liability for claims reported and an estimate of claims incurred but not yet reported.
The insurance and claims accruals are based on known facts, actuarial estimates and historical trends. While recorded accruals are based on the ultimate liability, which includes amounts in excess of the deductible, a corresponding receivable for amounts in excess of the deductible is included in current and long-term assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Performance and Payment Bonds and Parent Guarantees
In certain circumstances, the Company is required to provide performance and payment bonds in connection with its future performance on certain contractual commitments. The Company has indemnified its sureties for any expenses paid out under these bonds. As of June 30, 2022, an aggregate of approximately $1.74 billion in original face amount of bonds issued by the Company’s sureties were outstanding. The Company estimated the remaining cost to complete these bonded projects was approximately $742.3 million as of June 30, 2022.
From time to time, the Company guarantees the obligations of wholly owned subsidiaries, including obligations under certain contracts with customers, certain lease agreements, and, in some states, obligations in connection with obtaining contractors’ licenses. Additionally, from time to time the Company is required to post letters of credit to guarantee the obligations of wholly owned subsidiaries, which reduces the borrowing availability under the Facility.
Indemnities
From time to time, pursuant to its service arrangements, the Company indemnifies its customers for claims related to the services it provides under those service arrangements. These indemnification obligations may subject the Company to indemnity claims and liabilities and related litigation. The Company is not aware of any material unrecorded liabilities for asserted claims in connection with these indemnification obligations.
Collective Bargaining Agreements
Most of the Company’s subsidiaries’ craft labor employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. The agreements require the subsidiaries to pay specified wages, provide certain benefits and contribute certain amounts to multi-employer pension plans. If a subsidiary withdraws from any of the multi-employer pension plans or if the plans were to otherwise become underfunded, the subsidiary could incur liabilities for additional contributions related to these plans. Although the Company has been informed that the underfunding status of some of the multi-employer pension plans to which its subsidiaries contribute have been classified as “critical” status, the Company is not currently aware of any potential liabilities related to this issue.
Litigation and Other Legal Matters
The Company is from time-to-time party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief.
The Company is routinely subject to other civil claims, litigation and arbitration, and regulatory investigations arising in the ordinary course of our business, as well as in respect of our divested businesses. These claims, lawsuits and other proceedings include claims related to the Company’s current services and operations, as well as our historic operations.
With respect to all such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, the Company records reserves when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not believe that any of these proceedings, separately or in the aggregate, would be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
10. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company maintains two equity compensation plans under which stock-based compensation has been granted: the 2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan (which was amended and restated as of April 23, 2020) (the “LTIP”) and the 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended) (the “2007 Plan”). Upon the adoption of the original LTIP in 2017, awards were no longer granted under the 2007 Plan. The LTIP provides for grants of (a) incentive stock options qualified as such under U.S. federal income tax laws, (b) stock options that do not qualify as incentive stock options, (c) stock appreciation rights, (d) restricted stock awards, (e) restricted stock units, (f) performance share awards, (g) phantom stock units, (h) stock bonuses, (i) dividend equivalents, and (j) any combination of such grants. The Company has outstanding grants of non-qualified stock options, time-vested stock awards in the form of restricted stock units and internal metric-based and market-based performance stock units.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted time-vested stock awards covering 45,992 shares of common stock under the LTIP, which vest ratably over three years for employee awards and after one year for non-employee director awards, at a weighted average grant date fair value of $76.93. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, time-vested stock awards covering 73,373 shares of common stock vested at a weighted average grant date fair value of $42.47.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted 31,603 performance share awards under the LTIP at target, which will cliff vest, if earned, on December 31, 2024, at a weighted average grant date fair value of $118.82. The number of shares ultimately earned under a performance award may vary from zero to 200% of the target shares granted, based upon the Company’s performance compared to certain metrics. The metrics used were determined at the time of the grant by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and were either based on internal measures, such as the Company’s financial performance compared to targets, or on a market-based metric, such as the Company’s stock performance compared to a peer group. Performance awards granted cliff vest following the performance period if the stated performance targets and minimum service requirements are attained and are paid in shares of the Company’s common stock.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, plan participants exercised options to purchase 236 shares of the Company’s common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $17.48.
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units based on the grant date fair value, which was the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. The fair value is expensed over the service period, which is generally three years.
For performance awards, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense based on the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value of internal metric-based performance awards is determined by the closing stock price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of market-based performance awards is computed using a Monte Carlo simulation. Performance awards are expensed over the service period of approximately 2.8 years, and the Company adjusts the stock-based compensation expense related to internal metric-based performance awards according to its determination of the shares expected to vest at each reporting date.
11. Segment Information
MYR Group is a holding company of specialty contractors serving electrical utility infrastructure and commercial construction markets in the United States and Canada. The Company has two reporting segments, each a separate operating segment, which are referred to as T&D and C&I. Performance measurement and resource allocation for the reporting segments are based on many factors. The primary financial measures used to evaluate the segment information are contract revenues and income from operations, excluding general corporate expenses. General corporate expenses include corporate facility and staffing costs, which include safety costs, professional fees, IT expenses and management fees. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Note 1–Organization, Business and Significant Accounting Policies to the 2021 Annual Report.
Transmission and Distribution: The T&D segment provides a broad range of services on electric transmission and distribution networks and substation facilities which include design, engineering, procurement, construction, upgrade, maintenance and repair services with a particular focus on construction, maintenance and repair. T&D services include the construction and maintenance of high voltage transmission lines, substations and lower voltage underground and overhead distribution systems and clean energy projects. The T&D segment also provides emergency restoration services in response to hurricane, ice or other storm-related damage. T&D customers include investor-owned utilities, cooperatives, private developers, government-funded utilities, independent power producers, independent transmission companies, industrial facility owners and other contractors.
Commercial and Industrial: The C&I segment provides services such as the design, installation, maintenance and repair of commercial and industrial wiring, the installation of intelligent transportation systems, roadway lighting and signalization. Typical C&I contracts cover electrical contracting services for airports, hospitals, data centers, hotels, stadiums, commercial and industrial facilities, clean energy projects, manufacturing plants, processing facilities, water/waste-water treatment facilities, mining facilities and transportation control and management systems. The C&I segment generally provides electric construction and maintenance services as a subcontractor to general contractors in the C&I industry, but also contracts directly with facility owners. The C&I segment has a diverse customer base with many long-standing relationships.
The information in the following table is derived from the segment’s internal financial reports used for corporate management purposes:

12. Earnings Per Share
The Company computes earnings per share using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income available to stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income available to stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, except in cases where the effect of the common stock equivalent would be anti-dilutive.
Net income and the weighted average number of common shares used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three months ended June 30, | | Six months ended June 30, |
(in thousands, except per share data) | | 2022 | | 2021 | | 2022 | | 2021 |

Denominator: | | | | | | | | |
Weighted average common shares outstanding | | 16,894 | | | 16,854 | | | 16,904 | | | 16,807 | |
Weighted average dilutive securities | | 176 | | 271 | | 237 | | 286 |
Weighted average common shares outstanding, diluted | | 17,070 | | | 17,125 | | | 17,141 | | | 17,093 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Income per common share: | | | | | | | | |
Basic | | $ | 1.17 | | | $ | 1.26 | | | $ | 2.39 | | | $ | 2.45 | |
Diluted | | $ | 1.15 | | | $ | 1.24 | | | $ | 2.36 | | | $ | 2.41 | |
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, certain common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of dilutive securities because their inclusion would either have been anti-dilutive or, for stock options, the exercise prices of those stock options were greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the period. All of the Company’s unvested time-vested stock awards were included in the computation of weighted average dilutive securities.
The following table summarizes the shares of common stock underlying the Company’s unvested time-vested stock awards and performance awards that were excluded from the calculation of dilutive securities:

Time-vested stock awards | | 35 | | | — | | | 35 | | | — | |
Performance awards | | 32 | | | 17 | | | 32 | | | 17 | |
Share Repurchases
On May 4, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a new $75.0 million share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program"). The Repurchase Program was authorized by the Board of Directors on
May 3, 2022 and became effective on May 5, 2022. The Repurchase Program will expire on November 7, 2022, or when the
authorized funds are exhausted, whichever is earlier.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 280,907 shares of its common stock under the Repurchase Program at a weighted-average price of $83.54 per share. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 the Company repurchased 68,675 shares of stock, for approximately $6.8 million, from its employees to satisfy tax obligations on shares vested under the LTIP. All of the shares repurchased were retired. The shares repurchased resulted in no change to authorized shares and an increase to unissued shares. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $51.5 million of remaining availability to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock under the Repurchase Program.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This management’s discussion and analysis provides a narrative on the Company’s financial performance and condition that should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 Annual Report”). In addition to historical information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations. Factors that could cause such differences are discussed herein under the captions “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements and Information” and “Risk Factors,” as well as in the 2021 Annual Report. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements.
Overview and Outlook
We are a holding company of specialty electrical construction service providers that was established through the merger of long-standing specialty contractors. Through our subsidiaries, we serve the electric utility infrastructure, commercial and industrial construction markets. We manage and report our operations through two electrical contracting service segments: Transmission and Distribution (“T&D”) and Commercial and Industrial (“C&I”).
We have operated in the transmission and distribution industry since 1891. We are one of the largest U.S. contractors servicing the T&D sector of the electric utility industry and provide T&D services throughout the United States and in Ontario, Canada. Our T&D customers include many of the leading companies in the electric utility industry. We have provided electrical contracting services for commercial and industrial construction since 1912. Our C&I segment provides services in the United States and in western Canada. Our C&I customers include facility owners and general contractors.
We believe that we have a number of competitive advantages in both of our segments, including our skilled workforce, extensive centralized fleet, proven safety performance and reputation for timely completion of quality work that allows us to compete favorably in our markets. In addition, we believe that we are better capitalized than some of our competitors, which provides us with valuable flexibility to take on additional and more complex projects.
We believe proposed legislative actions aimed at supporting infrastructure improvements in the United States may positively impact long-term demand, particularly in connection with electric power infrastructure, transportation and clean energy spending. We believe the proposed legislative actions are likely to provide greater long-term opportunity in both of our reporting segments. However both of our segments and supporting operations may be subject to delays and cost volatility due to supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures, tariffs, regulatory slowdowns and the continued market disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic, which may result in decelerations in project opportunities and awards.
We had consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $1.34 billion, of which 58.0% was attributable to our T&D customers and 42.0% was attributable to our C&I customers. Our consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $1.24 billion. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our net income and EBITDA(1) were $40.4 million and $83.5 million, respectively, compared to $41.1 million and $80.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
We believe there is an ongoing need for utilities to sustain investment in their transmission systems to improve reliability, reduce congestion and connect to new clean energy sources. Consequently, we anticipate that we will continue to see significant bidding activity on large transmission projects going forward. The timing of multi-year transmission project awards and substantial construction activity is difficult to predict due to regulatory requirements and the permitting needed to commence construction. Significant construction on any large, multi-year projects awarded in the remainder of 2022 will not likely have a large impact on 2022 results. Bidding and construction activity for small to medium-size transmission projects and upgrades remain active, and we expect this trend to continue.
As a result of reduced spending by United States utilities on their distribution systems for several years, we believe there is a need for sustained investment by utilities on their distribution systems to properly maintain or meet reliability requirements. We continue to see increased bidding activity in some of our electric distribution markets, as economic conditions improved in those areas. We believe the increased storm activity and destruction caused by wildfires will cause a push to strengthen utility distribution systems against catastrophic damage. Several industry and market trends are also prompting customers in the electric utility industry to seek outsourcing partners rather than performing projects internally. These trends include an aging electric utility workforce, increasing costs and staffing constraints. We believe electric utility employee retirements could increase, which may result in an increase in outsourcing opportunities. We expect to see an incremental increase in distribution opportunities in the markets we serve during the rest of 2022.
(1) EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to “Non-GAAP Measure—EBITDA” for a discussion of this measure.
We expect C&I bidding opportunities to be impacted by continued market disruptions, and as a result, the growth of our C&I market will be heavily dependent on the timing and pace of the overall market recovery. We believe that the primary markets we serve may be somewhat less vulnerable to economic slowing, such as health care, transportation, data centers, warehousing, clean energy and water projects.
In addition, the United States has experienced decades of underfunded economic expansion and aging infrastructure which has challenged the capacity of public water and transportation infrastructure forcing states and municipalities to seek creative means to fund needed expansion and repair. We believe the need for expanding public infrastructure will offer opportunity in our C&I segment for several years. We expect the long-term growth in our C&I segment to generally track the overall growth of the regions we serve.
We strive to maintain our status as a preferred provider to our T&D and C&I customers. In an effort to support our growth strategy and maximize stockholder returns, we seek to efficiently manage our capital. We continue to implement strategies that further expand our capabilities and allow opportunities to provide prudent capital returns. On January 4, 2022, we acquired all issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Powerline Plus Ltd. and its affiliate (collectively, the “Powerline Plus Companies"), which expanded our distribution operations in Ontario, Canada.
We continue to manage our increasing costs for supporting our operations, including increasing insurance, equipment, labor and material costs. We believe that our financial position, positive cash flows and other operational strengths will enable us to manage our markets and give us the flexibility to successfully execute our strategies. We continue to invest in developing key management and craft personnel in both our T&D and C&I markets and in procuring the specific specialty equipment and tooling needed to win and execute projects of all sizes and complexity.
Backlog
We refer to our estimated revenue on uncompleted contracts, including the amount of revenue on contracts for which work has not begun, less the revenue we have recognized under such contracts, as “backlog.” A customer’s intention to award us work under a fixed-price contract is not included in backlog unless there is an actual written award to perform a specific scope of work at specific terms and pricing. For many of our unit-price, time-and-equipment, time-and-materials and cost plus contracts, we only include projected revenue for a three-month period in the calculation of backlog, although these types of contracts are generally awarded as part of master service agreements that typically have a one-year to three-year duration from execution. Backlog may not accurately represent the revenues that we expect to realize during any particular period. Several factors, such as the timing of contract awards, the type and duration of contracts, and the mix of subcontractor and material costs in our projects, can impact our backlog at any point in time. Some of our revenue does not appear in our periodic backlog reporting because the award of the project, as well as the execution of the work, may all take place within the period. Our backlog includes projects that have a written award, a letter of intent, a notice to proceed or an agreed upon work order to perform work on mutually accepted terms and conditions. Backlog should not be relied upon as a stand-alone indicator of future events.
The difference between our backlog and remaining performance obligations is due to the exclusion of a portion of our master service agreements under certain contract types from our remaining performance obligations as these contracts can be canceled for convenience at any time by us or the customer without considerable cost incurred by the customer. Our estimated backlog also includes our proportionate share of unconsolidated joint venture contracts. Additional information related to our remaining performance obligations is provided in Note 7–Revenue Recognition in the accompanying notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Our backlog was $2.44 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $1.79 billion at December 31, 2021 and $1.57 billion at June 30, 2021. Our backlog at June 30, 2022 increased $39.3 million from March 31, 2022. Backlog in the T&D segment decreased $60.6 million and C&I backlog increased $99.9 million compared to March 31, 2022. Our backlog as of June 30, 2022 included our proportionate share of joint venture backlog totaling $3.7 million, compared to $4.2 million at March 31, 2022.
The following table summarizes that amount of our backlog that we believe to be firm as of the dates shown and the amount of our current backlog that we reasonably estimate will not be recognized within the next twelve months:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2021
Revenues. Revenues were $708.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $649.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $58.5 million, or 9.0%, was primarily due to an increase in revenue on distribution projects, including incremental distribution revenues from the Powerline Plus Companies and an increase in revenue from transmission projects, partially offset by a decrease in C&I revenue in certain geographical areas.
Gross margin. Gross margin was 11.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 12.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to overall cost increases mainly associated with supply chain disruptions, inflation and continued impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, some of which also caused labor and material inefficiencies on certain projects. Gross margin was also negatively impacted by an unfavorable change order adjustment on a project and inclement weather experienced on certain projects. These margin decreases were partially offset by better-than-anticipated productivity on certain projects and a favorable job close out. Changes in estimates of gross profit on certain projects resulted in a gross margin decrease of 0.1% and an increase of 0.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Gross profit. Gross profit was $80.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $81.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.2%, was due to lower margins, partially offset by higher revenues.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $52.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $51.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period increase of $0.1 million was primarily due to costs associated with the recently acquired Powerline Plus Companies partially offset by a decrease in employee incentive compensation costs.
Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets was $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period increase of $2.7 million was primarily due to amortization related to certain intangibles acquired with the Powerline Plus Companies.
Gain on sale of property and equipment. Gains from the sale of property and equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $0.7 million compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Gains from the sale of property and equipment are attributable to routine sales of property and equipment no longer useful or valuable to our ongoing operations.
Other income, net. Other income was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to other income of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The change was largely due to funds received under the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS") program, which were attributable to a C&I segment company.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense was $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, with an effective tax rate of 29.4%, compared to the expense of $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, with an effective tax rate of 27.0%. The increase in the tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in permanent difference items, partially offset by the reduction of the impact of the global intangible low tax income (“GILTI”).
Net income. Net income was $19.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $21.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the reasons stated earlier.

Transmission & Distribution
Revenues for our T&D segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $415.2 million compared to $326.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $88.4 million, or 27.0%. The increase in revenue was primarily related to an increase in revenue on distribution projects, including incremental distribution revenues from the Powerline Plus Companies and an increase in revenue from transmission projects. Revenues from transmission projects represented 60.2% and 64.5% of T&D segment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Operating income for our T&D segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $32.8 million, an increase of $0.1 million, or 0.1%, from the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in T&D operating income from the prior year was primarily due to higher revenues and a favorable job close-out. These increases were partially offset by the additional $2.7 million of amortization related to certain intangibles acquired with the Powerline Plus Companies, an unfavorable change order adjustment on a project and overall cost increases from supply chain disruptions and inflation. Operating income was also negatively impacted by inclement weather experienced on certain projects. As a percentage of revenues, operating income for our T&D segment was 7.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 10.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Commercial & Industrial
Revenues for our C&I segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $292.9 million compared to $322.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $29.8 million, or 9.3%, primarily due to a decrease in revenue in certain geographical areas.
Operating income for our C&I segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $9.5 million, a decrease of $5.0 million, over the three months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period decrease in operating income was primarily due to lower revenues and overall cost increases mainly associated with supply chain disruptions, inflation and continued impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, some of which also caused labor and material inefficiencies on certain projects. The decrease in operating income was partially offset by better-than-anticipated productivity on certain projects. As a percentage of revenues, operating income for our C&I segment was 3.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 4.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Revenues. Revenues were $1.34 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1.24 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $102.6 million, or 8.3%, was primarily due to an increase in revenue on distribution projects including incremental distribution revenues from the Powerline Plus Companies and an increase in revenue from transmission projects, partially offset by a decrease in C&I revenue in certain geographical areas.
Gross margin. Gross margin was 12.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 12.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to overall cost increases mainly associated with supply chain disruptions, inflation and continued impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, some of which also caused labor and material inefficiencies on certain projects, as well as inclement weather experienced on certain projects. These margin decreases were partially offset by favorable job close outs and better-than-anticipated productivity on certain projects. Changes in estimates of gross profit on certain projects resulted in gross margin increases of 0.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
Gross profit. Gross profit was $161.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $158.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, the increase of $3.3 million, or 2.1% was due to higher revenues, partially offset by lower margins.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A was $105.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $101.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period increase of $4.1 million was primarily due to costs associated with the recently acquired Powerline Plus Companies and an increase in employee-related expenses, partially offset by a decrease in employee incentive compensation costs.
Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets was $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period increase of $4.8 million was primarily due to amortization related to certain intangibles acquired with the Powerline Plus Companies.
Gain on sale of property and equipment. Gains from the sale of property and equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $1.4 million compared to $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Gains from the sale of property and equipment are attributable to routine sales of property and equipment no longer useful or valuable to our ongoing operations.
Other income, net. Other income was $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to other income of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change was largely due to funds received under the CEWS program, which were attributable to a C&I segment company.
Interest expense. Interest expense was $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in our outstanding debt during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense was $12.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, with an effective tax rate of 22.8%, compared to the expense of $14.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, with an effective tax rate of 26.6%. The decrease in the tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a favorable impact from stock compensation excess tax benefits and the reduction of the impact of GILTI, partially offset by an increase in other permanent difference items.
Net income. Net income was $40.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $41.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the reasons stated earlier.

Transmission & Distribution
Revenues for our T&D segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $780.1 million compared to $641.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $138.4 million, or 21.6%. The increase in revenue was primarily related to an increase in revenue on distribution projects, including incremental distribution revenues from the Powerline Plus Companies and an increase in revenue from transmission projects. Revenues from transmission projects represented 60.5% and 65.8% of T&D segment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Operating income for our T&D segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $63.2 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 2.9%, from the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in T&D operating income from the prior year was primarily due to higher revenues and a favorable job close-out. These increases were partially offset by the additional $4.8 million of amortization related to certain intangibles acquired with the Powerline Plus Companies and overall cost increases from supply chain disruptions, inflation and inclement weather experienced on certain projects. As a percentage of revenues, operating income for our T&D segment was 8.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 9.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Commercial & Industrial
Revenues for our C&I segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $564.6 million compared to $600.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $35.7 million, or 5.9%, primarily due to a decrease in revenue in certain geographical areas.
Operating income for our C&I segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $19.6 million, a decrease of $9.2 million over the six months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period decrease in operating income was primarily due to overall cost increases mainly associated with supply chain disruptions, inflation and continued impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic some of which also caused labor and material inefficiencies on certain projects. The decrease in operating income was partially offset by better-than-anticipated productivity on certain projects and a favorable job close out. As a percentage of revenues, operating income for our C&I segment was 3.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 4.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Non-GAAP Measure—EBITDA
We define EBITDA, a performance measure used by management, as net income plus interest expense net of interest income, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to net cash flows provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. We believe that EBITDA is useful to investors and other external users of our Consolidated Financial Statements in evaluating our operating performance and cash flow because EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, useful lives placed on assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired. Because not all companies use identical calculations, this presentation of EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies. We use, and we believe investors benefit from, the presentation of EBITDA in evaluating our operating performance because it provides us and our investors with an additional tool to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations.
Using EBITDA as a performance measure has material limitations as compared to net income, or other financial measures as defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), as it excludes certain recurring items, which may be meaningful to investors. EBITDA excludes interest expense net of interest income; however, as we have borrowed money to finance transactions and operations, or invested available cash to generate interest income, interest expense and interest income are elements of our cost structure and can affect our ability to generate revenue and returns for our stockholders. Further, EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization; however, as we use capital and intangible assets to generate revenues, depreciation and amortization are a necessary element of our costs and ability to generate revenue. Finally, EBITDA excludes income taxes; however, as we are organized as a corporation, the payment of taxes is a necessary element of our operations. As a result of these exclusions from EBITDA, any measure that excludes interest expense net of interest income, depreciation and amortization and income taxes has material limitations as compared to net income. When using EBITDA as a performance measure, management compensates for these limitations by comparing EBITDA to net income in each period, to allow for the comparison of the performance of the underlying core operations with the overall performance of the company on a full-cost, after-tax basis. Using both EBITDA and net income to evaluate the business allows management and investors to (a) assess our relative performance against our competitors and (b) monitor our capacity to generate returns for our stockholders.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA:

EBITDA | | $ | 43,914 | | | $ | 41,202 | | | $ | 83,472 | | | $ | 80,525 | |
We also use EBITDA as a liquidity measure. Certain material covenants contained within our credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) are based on EBITDA with certain additional adjustments. Non-compliance with these financial covenants under the Credit Agreement — our interest coverage ratio which is defined in the Credit Agreement as Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by interest expense (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and our leverage ratio, which is defined in the Credit Agreement as Consolidated Total Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement), divided by Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) — could result in our lenders requiring us to immediately repay all amounts borrowed. If we anticipated a potential covenant violation, we would seek relief from our lenders, likely causing us to incur additional cost, and such relief might not be available, or if available, might not be on terms as favorable as those in the Credit Agreement. In addition, if we cannot satisfy these financial covenants, we would be prohibited under the Credit Agreement from engaging in certain activities, such as incurring additional indebtedness, making certain payments, and acquiring or disposing of assets. Based on the information above, management believes that the presentation of EBITDA as a liquidity measure is useful to investors and relevant to their assessment of our capacity to service or incur debt, fund capital expenditures, finance acquisitions and expand our operations.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Material Cash Requirements
As of June 30, 2022, we had working capital of $219.0 million. We define working capital as current assets less current liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, operating activities of our business provided net cash of $60.1 million, compared to $88.6 million of cash provided for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash flow from operations is primarily influenced by operating margins, timing of contract performance and the type of services we provide to our customers. The $28.4 million year-over-year decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to unfavorable net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $33.8 million, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization of $6.7 million. The unfavorable change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to unfavorable changes of $24.0 million in other liabilities and $15.3 million in other assets, partially offset by the net favorable year-over-year changes in various working capital accounts that relate primarily to construction activities (accounts receivable, contract assets, accounts payable and contract liabilities) of $7.1 million. The unfavorable change of $24.0 million in other liabilities was primarily due to the a decrease in accrued incentive compensation. The unfavorable change in other assets was primarily due to the incremental prepayment of materials required for certain projects offset by a favorable change in our prepaid insurance. The favorable changes in cash provided by working capital accounts, mainly related to construction activities, was primarily due to favorable changes in contract assets and contract liabilities due to the timing of billings and payments under our contracts.
In the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used net cash of $139.8 million in investing activities consisting of $110.6 million to acquire the Powerline Plus Companies and $30.4 million for capital expenditures, partially offset by $1.2 million of proceeds from the sale of equipment.
In the six months ended June 30, 2022, financing activities provided net cash of $20.4 million, consisting primarily of $51.4 million of borrowing under our revolving line of credit, partially offset by share repurchases of $23.5 million under our share repurchase program. Additionally, we repurchased shares of our common stock for approximately $6.8 million, all of which represented shares surrendered to satisfy tax obligations under our stock compensation programs.
We believe that our $310.3 million borrowing availability under our revolving line of credit at June 30, 2022, future cash flow from operations and our ability to utilize short- and long-term leases will provide sufficient liquidity for our short- and long-term needs. Our primary short-term liquidity needs include cash for operations, debt service requirements, capital expenditures, acquisition and joint venture opportunities, share repurchases and $11.8 million of remaining payroll tax deferrals provided under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"), which are expected to be paid by the end of 2022. We believe that we have adequate sources of liquidity to meet our long-term liquidity needs and foreseeable material cash requirements. We continue to invest in developing key management and craft personnel in both our T&D and C&I markets and in procuring the specific specialty equipment and tooling needed to win and execute projects of all sizes and complexity.
We have not historically paid dividends and currently do not expect to pay dividends.
Debt Instruments
Credit Agreement
On September 13, 2019, we entered into a five-year amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A. The Credit Agreement provides for a facility of $375 million (the “Facility”), subject to certain financial covenants as defined in the Credit Agreement, that may be used for revolving loans of which $150 million may be used for letters of credit. The Facility also allows for revolving loans and letters of credit in Canadian dollars and other currencies, up to the U.S. dollar equivalent of $75 million. We have an expansion option to increase the commitments under the Facility or enter into incremental term loans, subject to certain conditions, by up to an additional $200 million upon receipt of additional commitments from new or existing lenders. Subject to certain exceptions, the Facility is secured by substantially all of our assets and the assets of our domestic subsidiaries and by a pledge of substantially all of the capital stock of our domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of our direct foreign subsidiaries. Additionally, subject to certain exceptions, our domestic subsidiaries also guarantee the repayment of all amounts due under the Credit Agreement. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, amounts outstanding under the Facility may be accelerated and may become or be declared immediately due and payable. Borrowings under the Facility are used for refinancing existing debt, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes.
Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (1) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75%; or (2) Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.75%. The applicable margin is determined based on our consolidated leverage ratio (“Leverage Ratio”) which is defined in the Credit Agreement as Consolidated Total Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Letters of credit issued under the Facility are subject to a letter of credit fee of 1.00% to 1.75% for non-performance letters of credit or 0.50% to 0.875% for performance letters of credit, based on our consolidated Leverage Ratio. We are subject to a commitment fee of 0.15% to 0.25%, based on our consolidated Leverage Ratio, on any unused portion of the Facility. The Credit Agreement restricts certain types of payments when our consolidated Leverage Ratio exceeds 2.50 or our consolidated Liquidity (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than $50.0 million.
Under the Credit Agreement, we are subject to certain financial covenants and are limited to a maximum consolidated Leverage Ratio of 3.0 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0, which is defined in the Credit Agreement as Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by interest expense (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement also contains a number of covenants, including limitations on asset sales, investments, indebtedness and liens. We were in compliance with all of the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022.
We had $51.4 million of debt outstanding under the Facility as of June 30, 2022. We had no debt outstanding under the Facility as of December 31, 2021.
Letters of Credit
Some of our vendors require letters of credit to ensure reimbursement for amounts they are disbursing on our behalf, such as to beneficiaries under our insurance programs. In addition, from time-to-time certain customers require us to post letters of credit to ensure payment to our subcontractors and vendors under those contracts and to guarantee performance under our contracts. Such letters of credit are generally issued by a bank or similar financial institution. The letter of credit commits the issuer to pay specified amounts to the holder of the letter of credit if the holder claims that we have failed to perform specified actions in accordance with the terms of the letter of credit. If this were to occur, we would be required to reimburse the issuer of the letter of credit. Depending on the circumstances of such a reimbursement, we may also have to record a charge to earnings for the reimbursement. Currently, we do not believe that it is likely that any claims will be made under any letter of credit.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $13.3 million and $12.3 million, respectively, in letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement, which are almost entirely related to the Company's payment obligation under its insurance programs.
Equipment Notes
We have entered into multiple Master Loan Agreements with multiple finance companies. The Master Loan Agreements may be used for financing of equipment between us and the lenders pursuant to one or more equipment notes ("Equipment Notes"). Each Equipment Note constitutes a separate, distinct and independent financing of equipment and contractual obligation.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had one outstanding Equipment Note collateralized by equipment and vehicles owned by us. As of June 30, 2022, the Company also had one other equipment note outstanding that is collateralized by a vehicle owned by the Company. The outstanding balance of all equipment notes was $4.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and $4.5 million as of December 31, 2021. As of June 30, 2022 we had outstanding short-term and long-term equipment notes of approximately $1.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, we had an outstanding short-term and long-term Equipment Note of approximately $1.0 million and $3.5 million, respectively.
Lease Obligations
From time-to-time, the Company enters into non-cancelable leases for some of our facility, vehicle and equipment needs. These leases allow the Company to conserve cash by paying a monthly lease rental fee for the use of facilities, vehicles and equipment rather than purchasing them. The Company’s leases have remaining terms ranging from one to seven years, some of which may include options to extend the leases for up to five years, and some of which may include options to terminate the leases within one year. Typically, the Company has purchase options on the equipment underlying its long-term leases and many of its short-term rental arrangements. The Company may exercise some of these purchase options when the need for equipment is on-going and the purchase option price is attractive.
The outstanding balance of operating lease obligations was $32.7 million as of June 30, 2022, consisting of short-term and long-term operating lease obligations of approximately $9.4 million and $23.3 million, respectively. The outstanding balance of operating lease obligations was $21.0 million as of December 31, 2021, consisting of short-term and long-term operating lease obligations of approximately $7.8 million and $13.2 million, respectively.
The outstanding balance of finance lease obligations was $4.3 million as of June 30, 2022, consisting of short-term and long-term finance lease obligations of approximately $1.3 million and $3.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 we had no outstanding finance lease obligations.
Purchase Commitments for Construction Equipment
As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately $14.3 million in outstanding purchase obligations for certain construction equipment to be paid with cash outlays scheduled to occur over the next seven months.
Performance and Payment Bonds and Parent Guarantees
Many customers, particularly in connection with new construction, require us to post performance and payment bonds issued by a financial institution known as a surety. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that we will perform under the terms of a contract and that we will pay subcontractors and vendors. If we fail to perform under a contract or to pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. We must reimburse our sureties for any expenses or outlays they incur. Under our continuing indemnity and security agreements with our sureties, with the consent of our lenders under the Credit Agreement, we have granted security interests in certain of our assets to collateralize our obligations to the surety. We may be required to post letters of credit or other collateral in favor of the surety or our customers. Posting letters of credit in favor of the surety or our customers reduces the borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement. To date, we have not been required to make any reimbursements to any of our sureties for bond-related costs. We believe that it is unlikely that we will have to fund significant claims under our surety arrangements. As of June 30, 2022, an aggregate of approximately $1.74 billion in original face amount of bonds issued by our sureties were outstanding. Our estimated remaining cost to complete these bonded projects was approximately $742.3 million as of June 30, 2022.
From time to time we guarantee the obligations of our wholly owned subsidiaries, including obligations under certain contracts with customers, certain lease agreements, and, in some states, obligations in connection with obtaining contractors’ licenses. Additionally, from time to time we are required to post letters of credit to guarantee the obligations of our wholly owned subsidiaries, which reduces the borrowing availability under our credit facility.
Concentration of Credit Risk
We grant trade credit under normal payment terms, generally without collateral, to our customers, which include high credit quality electric utilities, governmental entities, general contractors and builders, owners and managers of commercial and industrial properties located in the United States. Consequently, we are subject to potential credit risk related to changes in business and economic factors throughout the United States. However, we generally have certain statutory lien rights with respect to services provided. Under certain circumstances such as foreclosures or negotiated settlements, we may take title to the underlying assets in lieu of cash in settlement of receivables. As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, none of our customers individually exceeded 10% of consolidated accounts receivable. Management believes the terms and conditions in its contracts, billing and collection policies are adequate to minimize the potential credit risk.
New Accounting Pronouncements
For a discussion regarding new accounting pronouncements, please refer to Note 1–Organization, Business and Basis of Presentation—Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the accompanying notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. For further information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, please refer to Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies” included in our 2021 Annual Report.
Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements and Information
We are including the following discussion to inform you of some of the risks and uncertainties that can affect our company and to take advantage of the protections for forward-looking statements that applicable federal securities law affords.
Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain various forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), which represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions concerning future events. When used in this document and in documents incorporated by reference, forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding financial forecasts or projections, and our expectations, beliefs, intentions or future strategies that are signified by the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “likely,” “may,” “objective,” “outlook,” “plan,” “project,” “possible,” “potential,” “should”, "unlikely,” or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We disclaim any obligation to update these statements (unless required by securities laws), and we caution you not to rely on them unduly. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict, and many of which are beyond our control. In addition, many of these risks, contingencies and uncertainties are currently amplified by, and may continue to be amplified by, the COVID-19 pandemic. These and other important factors, including those discussed under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements” and in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report, and in any risk factors or cautionary statements contained in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
These risks, contingencies and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:
•Our operating results may vary significantly from period to period.
•Our industry is highly competitive.
•Negative economic and market conditions including tariffs on materials and recessionary conditions may adversely impact our customers’ future spending and, as a result, our operations and growth.
•We may be unsuccessful in generating internal growth, which could impact the projects available to the Company.
•Our inability to successfully execute or integrate acquisitions or joint ventures may have an adverse impact on our growth strategy and business.
•Project performance issues, including those caused by third parties, or certain contractual obligations may result in additional costs to us, reductions or delays in revenues or the payment of penalties, including liquidated damages.
•We may be unable to attract and retain qualified personnel.
•The timing of new contracts and termination of existing contracts may result in unpredictable fluctuations in our cash flows and financial results.
•During the ordinary course of our business, we may become subject to lawsuits or indemnity claims.
•Backlog may not be realized or may not result in profits and may not accurately represent future revenue.
•Our insurance has limits and exclusions that may not fully indemnify us against certain claims or losses, including claims resulting from wildfires or other natural disasters and an increase in cost, or the unavailability or cancellation of third party insurance coverages would increase our overall risk exposure and could disrupt our operations and reduce our profitability.
•Risks associated with operating in the Canadian market could restrict our ability to expand and harm our business and prospects.
•Changes in tax laws or our interpretations of tax laws could materially impact our income tax liabilities.
•The nature of our business exposes us to potential liability for warranty claims and faulty engineering, which may reduce our profitability.
•Health outbreaks such as the COVID-19 pandemic may have an adverse impact on our business, employees, liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
•Our dependence on suppliers, subcontractors and equipment manufacturers could expose us to the risk of loss in our operations.
•Our participation in joint ventures and other projects with third parties may expose us to liability for failures of our partners.
•Legislative or regulatory actions relating to electricity transmission and renewable energy may impact demand for our services.
•We may incur liabilities and suffer negative financial or reputational impacts relating to occupational health and safety matters, including those related to environmental hazards such as wildfires and other natural disasters.
•Our failure to comply with environmental and other laws and regulations could result in significant liabilities.
•Our business may be affected by seasonal and other variations, including severe weather conditions and the nature of our work environment.
•Opportunities associated with government contracts could lead to increased governmental regulation applicable to us.
•We are subject to risks associated with climate change including financial risks and physical risks such as an increase in extreme weather events (such as floods, wildfires or hurricanes), rising sea levels and limitations on water availability and quality.
•Our use of percentage-of-completion accounting could result in a reduction or reversal of previously recognized revenues and profits.
•Our financial results are based upon estimates and assumptions that may differ from actual results.
•Our actual costs may be greater than expected in performing our fixed-price and unit-price contracts.
•An increase in the cost or availability for items such as materials, parts, commodities, equipment and tooling may also be impacted by trade regulations, tariffs, global relations, taxes, transportation costs and inflation which could adversely affect our business.
•We may not be able to compete for, or work on, certain projects if we are not able to obtain necessary bonds, letters of credit, bank guarantees or other financial assurances.
•Work stoppages or other labor issues with our unionized workforce could adversely affect our business, and we may be subject to unionization attempts.
•Multi-employer pension plan obligations related to our unionized workforce could adversely impact our earnings.
•We rely on information, communications and data systems in our operations and we or our business partners may be subject to failures, interruptions or breaches of such systems, which could affect our operations or our competitive position, expose sensitive information or damage our reputation.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of June 30, 2022, we were not party to any derivative instruments. We did not use any material derivative financial instruments during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, including instruments for trading, hedging or speculating on changes in interest rates or commodity prices of materials used in our business.
As of June 30, 2022, we had $51.4 million of borrowings under our Facility. Any borrowings under our Facility are based upon interest rates that will vary depending upon the prime rate, Canadian prime rate, federal funds effective rate, the NYFRB overnight bank funding rate, CDOR, and LIBOR (or any interest rate replacing LIBOR). If the prime rate, Canadian prime rate, federal funds effective rate, the NYFRB overnight bank funding rate, CDOR, or LIBOR (or any interest rate replacing LIBOR) rises, any interest payment obligations would increase and have a negative effect on our cash flow and financial condition. We currently do not maintain any hedging contracts that would limit our exposure to variable rates of interest when we have outstanding borrowings. If market rates of interest on all our revolving debt as of June 30, 2022, which is subject to variable rates, permanently increased by 1%, the increase in interest expense on all revolving debt would decrease future income before provision for income taxes and cash flows by approximately $0.5 million annually. If market rates of interest on all our revolving debt, which is subject to variable rates as of June 30, 2022, permanently decreased by 1%, the decrease in interest expense on all debt would increase future income before provision for income taxes and cash flows by approximately $0.5 million annually.
Borrowings under our equipment notes are at fixed rates established on the date the respective equipment note was executed.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision, and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2022.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this report, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
For discussion regarding legal proceedings, please refer to Note 9–Commitments and Contingencies—Litigation and Other Legal Matters in the accompanying notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
We face a number of risks that could materially and adversely affect our business, employees, liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. A discussion of our risk factors can be found in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report. As of the date of this filing, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report. An investment in our common stock involves various risks. When considering an investment in our company, you should carefully consider all of the risk factors described in our 2021 Annual Report. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing us and there may be additional matters that are not known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. These risks and uncertainties could adversely affect our business, employees, liquidity, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows and, thus, the value of our common stock and any investment in our company.
