NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

Flotek Industries, Inc. (“Flotek” or the “Company”) is an international energy chemistry technology-driven company that develops and supplies chemistry and services to the oil and gas industry. Flotek also supplied high value compounds to companies that make food and beverages, cleaning products, cosmetics, and other products that are sold in consumer and industrial markets, which was classified as discontinued operations at December 31, 2018.

The Company’s oilfield business designs, develops, manufactures, packages, distributes, delivers, and markets reservoir-centric fluid systems, including specialty and conventional chemistries, for use in oil and gas (“O&G”) well drilling, cementing, completion, remediation, and stimulation activities designed to maximize recovery in both new and mature fields. Activities in this segment also include construction and management of automated material handling facilities as well as management of loading facilities and blending operations for oilfield services companies. In the segment reported as discontinued operations at December 31, 2018, the Company processed citrus oil to produce (1) high value compounds used as additives by companies in the flavors and fragrances markets and (2) environmentally friendly chemistries for use in numerous industries around the world, including the O&G industry.

Flotek operates in over 15 domestic and international markets. Customers include major integrated O&G companies, oilfield services companies, independent O&G companies, pressure-pumping service companies, national and state-owned oil companies, and international supply chain management companies. The Company also served customers who purchase non-energy-related citrus oil and related products, including household and commercial cleaning product companies, fragrance and cosmetic companies, and food manufacturing companies, reported as discontinued operations at December 31, 2018.

Flotek was initially incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia on May 17, 1985. On October 23, 2001, Flotek changed its corporate domicile to the state of Delaware.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying footnotes (collectively the “Financial Statements”) reflect all adjustments, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. All such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The Financial Statements, including selected notes, have been prepared in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting and do not include all information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for comprehensive financial statement reporting. These interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (“Annual Report”). A copy of the Annual Report is available on the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov, under the Company’s ticker symbol (“FTK”) or on Flotek’s website, www.flotekind.com. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2019.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company classified the Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies segment as held for sale based on management’s intention to sell this business. The Company’s historical financial statements have been revised to present the operating results of the Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies segment as discontinued operations. The results of operations of this segment are presented as “Income (loss) from discontinued operations” in the statement of operations and the related cash flows of this segment have been reclassified to discontinued operations for all periods presented. The assets and liabilities of the Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies segment have been reclassified to “Assets held for sale” and “Liabilities held for sale”, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheet for all periods presented.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company does not have investments in any unconsolidated subsidiaries.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of lease liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, current portion of lease liabilities, and finance lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable. The lease term is modified to reflect options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company has some lease agreements that contain both lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to account for such leases as having a single lease component.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications did not impact net loss.

Note 2 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Application of New Accounting Standards

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the accounting guidance in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases.” This standard (ASC 842) requires the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP (ASC 840). The Company adopted ASC 842 using the optional transition method. Consequently, the Company’s reporting for the comparative periods presented prior to 2019 in the financial statements will continue to be in accordance with ASC 840. Upon adoption, the Company recorded operating lease ROU assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities, net of deferred rent, of approximately $18.4 million, representing the present value of future lease payments under operating leases with terms of greater than twelve months. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. Refer to Note 4 — “Leases” for further information surrounding adoption of this new standard.

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This standard allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Implementation of this standard did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07, “Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This standard expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. Implementation of this standard did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

New Accounting Requirements and Disclosures

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This standard replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This standard removes, modifies, and adds additional requirements for disclosures related to fair value measurement in ASC 820. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted in any interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 3 — Discontinued Operations

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company initiated and began executing a strategic plan to sell its Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies (“CICT”) segment. An investment banking advisory services firm was engaged and actively marketed this segment.

The Company met all of the criteria to classify the CICT segment’s assets and liabilities as held for sale in the fourth quarter 2018. The Company has classified the assets, liabilities, and results of operations for this segment as “Discontinued Operations” for all periods presented.

Disposal of the CICT reporting segment represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results.

On January 10, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (“ADM”) for the sale of all of the shares representing membership interests in its wholly owned subsidiary, Florida Chemical Company, LLC, which represented the CICT segment.

Effective February 28, 2019, the Company completed the sale of the CICT segment to ADM for $175.0 million in cash consideration, with $4.4 million temporarily held in escrow by ADM for post-closing working capital adjustments for up to 90 days and $13.1 million temporarily held in escrow to satisfy potential indemnification claims by ADM with anticipated releases at 6 months, 12 months, and 15 months. As of September 30, 2019, the escrow balance including interest was $12.5 million reflected in other current assets.

Pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company and ADM are in the process of engaging a neutral third party arbitrator to help reach agreement on the final post-closing working capital adjustment.

Concurrent with the closing of the sale of the CICT segment, the Company retained $11.1 million of historical inventory previously held by the CICT segment. In addition, the Company executed a long-term supply agreement for terpene. The term of the agreement runs through September 2023, with an option to extend for an additional year. The remaining minimum commitment of the agreement at September 30, 2019 is $72 million.

Note 5 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. In recognizing revenue for products and services, the Company determines the transaction price of purchase orders or contracts with customers, which may consist of fixed and variable consideration. Determining the transaction price may require significant judgment by management, which includes identifying performance obligations, estimating variable consideration to include in the transaction price, and determining whether promised goods or services are distinct within the context of the contract. Variable consideration typically consists of product returns and is estimated based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive. Revenue accruals are recorded on an ongoing basis to reflect updated variable consideration information.

FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For certain contracts, the Company recognizes revenue under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, measured by the percentage of “costs incurred to date” to the “total estimated costs of completion.” This percentage is applied to the “total estimated revenue at completion” to calculate proportionate revenue earned to date. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the percentage-of-completion revenue accounted for less than 0.1% of total revenue during the respective time periods. This resulted in immaterial unfulfilled performance obligations and immaterial contract assets and/or liabilities, for which the Company did not record adjustments to opening retained earnings as of December 31, 2016 or for any periods previously presented.

The vast majority of the Company’s products are sold at a point in time and service contracts are short-term in nature. Sales are billed on a monthly basis with payment terms customarily 30-45 days for domestic and 60 day for international from invoice receipt. In addition, sales taxes are excluded from revenues.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company has disaggregated revenues by product sales (point-in-time revenue recognition) and service revenue (over-time revenue recognition), where product sales accounted for over 95% of total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

The Company differentiates revenue and operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) based on whether the source of revenue is attributable to products or services. Revenue and operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) disaggregated by revenue source are as follows (in thousands):



	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2019		2018		2019		2018

	$	23,689	$	45,647	$	106,593	$	117,848

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Company’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, the total transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers (“observable standalone price”) or an expected cost plus a margin approach. For combined products and services within a contract, the Company accounts for individual products and services separately if they are distinct (i.e. if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the contract and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer). The consideration is allocated between separate products and services within a contract based on the prices at the observable standalone price. For items that are not sold separately, the expected cost plus a margin approach is used to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

Contract Balances

Under revenue contracts for both products and services, customers are invoiced once the performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, no revenue contracts give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, no impairments were recognized related to property and equipment.

Note 9 — Goodwill

During the second quarter of 2018, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $37.2 million in the Energy Chemistry Technologies (“ECT”) reporting unit, which resulted from sustained under-performance and lower expectations related to the reporting unit. As a result of these factors, a qualitative analysis, and additional risks associated with the business, the Company concluded that sufficient indicators existed to require an interim quantitative assessment of goodwill for that reporting unit as of September 30, 2018. The fair value of the reporting unit was estimated based on an analysis of the present value of future discounted cash flows. The significant estimates used in the discounted cash flows model included the Company’s weighted average cost of capital, projected cash flows and the long-term rate of growth. The assumptions were based on the actual historical performance of the reporting unit and took into account a recent weakening of operating results in an improving market environment. The excess of the reporting unit’s carrying value over the estimated fair value was recorded as the goodwill impairment charge in the second quarter 2018 and represented all of the ECT reporting unit’s goodwill.

The Company could borrow under the Credit Facility for working capital, permitted acquisitions, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes. The Credit Facility was to continue in effect until May 10, 2022. Under terms of the Credit Facility, the Company had total borrowing availability of $75 million under a revolving credit facility, including a sublimit of $10 million that could be used for letters of credit. On March 1, 2019, the Company repaid the outstanding balance, interest, and fees related to the revolving credit facility, and simultaneously terminated the Credit Facility. Simultaneously with the termination of the Credit Facility, the Company expensed the remaining amount of deferred financing costs totaling $1.4 million.

Note 12 — Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding combined with dilutive common share equivalents outstanding, if the effect is dilutive.

Potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, since including them would have an anti-dilutive effect on loss per share due to the net loss incurred during the periods. Securities convertible into shares of common stock that were not considered in the diluted loss per share calculations were 0.5 million restricted stock units for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, and 0.9 million restricted stock units for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Note 13 — Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company categorizes financial assets and liabilities into the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value and bases categorization within the hierarchy on the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement.


•	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;


•	Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and


•	Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity or that are based on the reporting entity’s assumptions about the inputs.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts. The Company had total cash of $107.0 million, which consisted of cash equivalents of $57.7 million in a government money market account and cash deposits of $45.5 million in an interest bearing demand deposit account and $3.8 million in operating cash accounts, at September 30, 2019, and $3.0 million, which consisted of no cash equivalents and cash deposits of $3.0 million in operating cash accounts, at December 31, 2018.

The carrying amount and estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt are as follows (in thousands):



	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
	Carrying Amount	Fair Value	Carrying Amount	Fair Value
Borrowings under Credit Facility	—	—	49,731	49,731

The carrying amount of borrowings under the Credit Facility approximates its fair value because the interest rates are variable.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company’s non-financial assets, including property and equipment, goodwill, and other intangible assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and are subject to fair value adjustment in certain circumstances. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an impairment of $37.2 million for goodwill in the Energy Chemistry Technologies reporting unit. No impairments of any of these assets were recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Note 14 — Income Taxes

A reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory tax rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows:

	2019		2018		2019		2018
U.S. federal statutory tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%	21.0	%	21.0	%

Increase in valuation allowance	(18.8	)	(3.4	)	(18.2	)	(33.6	)
Other	(1.4	)	—		(0.7	)	—
Effective income tax rate	1.6	%	6.0	%	2.8	%	(22.8	)%

Fluctuations in effective tax rates have historically been impacted by permanent tax differences with no associated income tax impact, changes in the valuation allowance, changes in state apportionment factors, including the effect on state deferred tax assets and liabilities, and non-U.S. income taxed at different rates.

Net deferred tax assets arise due to the recognition of income and expense items for tax purposes, which differ from those used for financial statement purposes. ASC 740, Income Taxes, provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance in the second quarter of 2018, the Company considered all available objective and verifiable evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of pre-tax income (loss) both on a consolidated basis and tax reporting entity basis, legislative developments, and expectations and risks associated with estimates of future pre-tax income. As a result of this analysis, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that it would not realize the benefits of certain deferred tax assets and, therefore, recorded a $15.5 million valuation allowance against the carrying value of net deferred tax assets, except for deferred tax liabilities related to non-amortizable intangible assets and certain state jurisdictions. As all available evidence should be taken into consideration when assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the sale of the CICT segment provided a source of income to support the release of $11.5 million of the valuation allowance which resulted in a deferred tax asset of $18.7 million. As such, the Company reversed this portion of the valuation allowance during the fourth quarter of 2018. The increase in the valuation allowance during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflects management’s evaluation of deferred tax assets more-likely-than-not to be used after giving consideration to the gain from the sale of the CICT segment and anticipated results of operations.

In January 2017, the Internal Revenue Service notified the Company that it would examine the Company’s federal tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2014. The examination included (1) the corporate returns and (2) employment tax matters. The IRS fieldwork has been completed in relation to the corporate returns with no adverse findings. Further discussion of the employment tax matter can be found in Note 18 — “Related Party Transaction.”

Note 15 — Common Stock

Stock Repurchase Program

In June 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company’s common stock. Repurchases may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. Through December 31, 2018, the Company had repurchased $0.3 million of its common stock under this authorization.

Note 17 — Commitments and Contingencies

Class Action Litigation

On March 30, 2017, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the four consolidated putative securities class action lawsuits that were filed in November 2015, against the Company and certain of its officers. The lawsuits were previously consolidated into a single case, and a consolidated amended complaint had been filed. The consolidated amended complaint asserted that the Company made false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. The complaint sought an award of damages in an unspecified amount on behalf of a putative class consisting of persons who purchased the Company’s common stock between October 23, 2014 and November 9, 2015, inclusive. The lead plaintiff appealed the District Court’s decision granting the motion to dismiss. On February 7, 2019, a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit issued a unanimous opinion affirming the District Court’s judgment of dismissal in its entirety.

Other Litigation

The Company is subject to routine litigation and other claims that arise in the normal course of business. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened lawsuits or proceedings that are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Concentrations and Credit Risk

The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from O&G industry. Customers include major oilfield services companies, major integrated oil and natural gas companies, independent oil and natural gas companies, pressure pumping service companies, and state-owned national oil companies. This concentration of customers in one industry increases credit and business risks.

The Company is subject to concentrations of credit risk within trade accounts receivable, as the Company does not generally require collateral as support for trade receivables. In addition, the majority of the Company’s cash is invested in accounts in two major financial institutions and balances often exceed insurable amounts.

Note 18 — Related Party Transaction

In January 2017, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) notified the Company that it was examining the Company’s federal tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2014. As a result of this examination, the IRS informed the Company on May 1, 2019 that certain employment taxes related to the CEO’s compensation were not properly withheld in 2014 and proposed an adjustment. The CEO’s affiliated companies through which he provided his services have agreed to indemnify the Company for any such taxes, and the CEO has executed a personal guaranty in favor of the Company, supporting this indemnification.

At June 30, 2019, the Company recorded a liability of $2.4 million related to the estimated employment tax under-withholding for the years 2014 through 2018. By September 30, 2019, the liability totaled $1.8 million, after the Company paid $0.6 million to the IRS for these taxes and made an additional accrual covering the estimated under-withholding tax liability through 2019. In addition, at September 30, 2019 the Company recorded a receivable from the CEO’s affiliated companies totaling $2.4 million. In October 2019, an amendment to the CEO’s employment agreement was executed, giving the Company the contractual right of offset for any amounts owed to the Company against, and giving the Company the right to withhold payments equal to amounts reasonably estimated to potentially become due to the Company by the CEO’s affiliated companies from, any amounts owed to the CEO under the employment agreement.

These technologies are used by beverage and food companies, fragrance companies, and companies providing household and industrial cleaning products.

Market Conditions

The Company’s success is sensitive to a number of factors, which include, but are not limited to, drilling and well completion activity, customer demand for its advanced technology products, market prices for raw materials, and governmental actions.

Drilling and well completion activity levels are influenced by a number of factors, including the number of rigs in operation and the geographical areas of rig activity. Additional factors that influence the level of drilling and well completion activity include:


•	Historical, current, and anticipated future O&G prices,


•	Federal, state, and local governmental actions that may encourage or discourage drilling activity,


•	Customers’ strategies relative to capital funds allocations,


•	Weather conditions, and


•	Technological changes to drilling and completion methods and economics.

Historical North American drilling activity is reflected in “TABLE A” on the following page.

Customers’ demand for advanced technology products and services provided by the Company are dependent on their recognition of the value of:


•	Chemistries that improve the economics of their O&G operations,


•	Chemistries that meet the need of consumer product markets, and


•	Chemistries that are economically viable, socially responsible, and ecologically sound.

Market prices for commodities, including citrus oils, which are a major raw material used by the Company in its operations, can be influenced by:


•	Historical, current, and anticipated future production levels of the global citrus (primarily orange) crops,


•	Weather related risks,


•	Health and condition of citrus trees (e.g., disease and pests), and


•	International competition and pricing pressures resulting from natural and artificial pricing influences.

Governmental actions may restrict the future use of hazardous chemicals, including, but not limited to, the following industrial applications:


•	O&G drilling and completion operations,

Source: Rig counts are per Baker Hughes, Inc. (www.bakerhughes.com). Rig counts are the averages of the weekly rig count activity.

Completions are per the U.S. Energy Information Administration (https://www.eia.gov/petroleum/drilling/) as of October 15, 2019.

Average U.S. rig activity decreased by 12.5% and 3.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, when compared to the same periods of 2018, and sequentially, decreased by 7.0% when compared to the second quarter of 2019.

According to data collected by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”) as reported on October 15, 2019, completions in the seven most prolific areas in the lower 48 states increased 10.1% and 11.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, when compared to the same periods of 2018. Completions increased 0.3% when compared to the second quarter of 2019.

Company Outlook

After a continuous decline in U.S. drilling activity beginning in mid-2014, the market began to gradually recover in the second quarter of 2016. Although O&G markets have improved, the level of drilling and completion activity remains lower than previous levels experienced before the downturn in 2014. Assuming the price for crude oil remains relatively soft and regulatory impediments are limited, the Company expects continued volatility in global oilfield activity for the remainder of 2019.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company continued to promote the efficacy of its Complex nano-Fluid^® (“CnF^®”) chemistries and its Prescriptive Chemistry Management^® (“PCM^®”) offering. Although quarter-to-quarter performance may vary, the Company expects to continue to penetrate the market over time by demonstrating the efficacy of its CnF^® chemistries and reservoir-centric full fluid systems via PCM^®. The Company will continue to demonstrate the value and benefit of Flotek chemistries through comparative analysis of wells with and without Flotek chemistries and field validation results conducted in partnership with exploration and production (“E&P”) companies. Flotek is experiencing a notable shift in purchasing behaviors in which E&P companies are seeking greater transparency, control and efficacy in their fluid systems, as they see diminishing returns on mechanical factors in their completion designs, such as proppant loading, fluid loading, and lateral length in their completions. As a result, they are focusing more on sourcing consumables, including chemistry, directly from manufacturers and other providers of these products. This trend has created significant changes in Flotek’s customer base, product portfolio, and sales efforts and continues to influence changes in inventory and distribution strategies, capital allocation, and the business model for the Company. While these challenges are expected to persist in the near-term, the Company believes it can grow its client base and revenue opportunities over time.

The Company continues to enhance and improve its patented and proven chemistries through its industry leading research and innovation staff who develop innovative and customer- responsive products, as well as create new chemistry technologies, which are expected to address oilfield challenges of the future and expand the Company’s product lines. Completed in 2016, the Company’s Houston based Global Research & Innovation Center houses scientists, chemists, geologists, and reservoir, petroleum and geomechanical engineers who advance the development of next-generation innovative energy chemistries, as well as expanded collaboration among clients, leaders from academia, and Company scientists. These collaborative opportunities are an important and distinguishing capability within the industry and provide real-time product and fluid system development support directly to the customer.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company initiated a strategic plan to sell its Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies segment, which was completed in the first quarter of 2019. The Company continues to focus on maximizing the profitability of its product and business portfolio, and may exit or enter new product lines or businesses which complement its current operations.

Capital expenditures for continuing operations totaled $1.9 million and $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company expects capital expenditures to total approximately $2.2 million for 2019 and does not have any specific growth capital projects currently planned or committed. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company formed a Strategic Capital Committee that will consider these possible growth capital projects going forward. The Company will remain nimble in its core capital expenditure plans, adjusting as market conditions warrant, and will focus any growth capital spending program on uses that generate positive returns and to areas that pose a strategic long-term benefit.

During the first quarter and into the beginning of the second quarter of 2019, the Company lost several key sales personnel. In April 2019, the Company hired a new Senior Vice President of Global Sales & Business Development who now leads the Company’s domestic and international sales and business development strategies as well as operations. By the end of the third quarter, the Company had substantially rebuilt a more technically oriented sales organization; however, as a result of the transition of sales personnel, and the typically longer sales cycle for the company’s products, revenue for the remainder of 2019 may be negatively impacted. The Company believes the opportunity it has taken to enhance the technical background of its sales personnel together with relationships built with its customers, and the demonstrated value and benefit of Flotek’s chemistries will help to mitigate further potential revenue declines.

Changes to geopolitical, global economic, and industry trends could have an impact, either positive or negative, on the Company’s business. In the event of significant adverse changes to the demand for oil and gas production, the market price for oil and gas, weather patterns, and/or the availability of citrus crops, the market conditions affecting the Company could change rapidly and materially. Should such adverse changes to market conditions occur, management believes the Company has adequate liquidity to withstand the impact of such changes while continuing to make strategic capital investments and acquisitions, if opportunities arise. In addition, management believes the Company is well-positioned to take advantage of significant increases in demand for its products should market conditions improve dramatically in the near term.

Consolidated Results of Operations: Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019, Compared to the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

Consolidated revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, decreased $31.8 million, or 59.3%, and $34.5 million, or 25.7%, respectively, versus the same periods of 2018. The decrease in revenue was a result of the continued volatile macro-environment for U.S. onshore drilling and completion activity, the transition of personnel in the Company’s sales organization, and the deferral of completion activity by certain clients.

Consolidated operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, decreased $22.0 million, or 48.1%, and $11.3 million, or 9.6%, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2018, and, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 108.3% and 106.8%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively from 85.0% and 87.7% in the same periods of 2018. The decrease is primarily due to lower material costs, lower logistics, lower labor, and lower inventory adjustments.

Corporate general and administrative (“CG&A”) expenses are not directly attributable to products sold or services provided. CG&A costs decreased $1.8 million, or 24.0%, and $5.6 million, or 22.8%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, versus the same periods of 2018. As a percentage of revenue, CG&A increased 12.1% and 0.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The decrease in CG&A costs were primarily due to lower personnel costs, lower software licensing fees and lower professional fees.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $0.2 million, or 8.9%, and $0.5 million, or 7.2%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively versus the same periods of 2018.

Research and Innovation (“R&I”) expense decreased $0.1 million, or 2.3%, and $1.4 million, or 17.3%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2018. The decrease is primarily due to lower personnel costs related to the reductions in headcount associated costs savings initiatives during the first half of 2019.

Loss on disposal of long-lived assets remained flat for the three months ended September 30, 2019 but increased $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods of 2018, primarily due to the disposal of certain corporate software in the first quarter of 2019.

Interest and other expense decreased $1.2 million and $3.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, versus the same periods of 2018, primarily due to a $1.2 million write-off associated with the discontinuation of certain corporate projects during the second quarter 2018 and $1.3 million related to moving from an interest expense position to an interest income position as a result of the sale of the CICT segment and subsequent termination of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank in the first quarter 2019. The decrease is partially offset by the acceleration of $1.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the termination of the Credit Facility in the first quarter 2019.

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.2 million and $1.2 million, yielding an effective tax benefit rate of 1.6% and 2.8%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared to an income tax benefit of $0.3 million and income tax expense of $15.5 million, yielding an effective tax benefit rate of 6.0% and 22.8%, for the comparable periods in 2018.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company initiated a strategic plan to sell its Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies segment, which was completed in the first quarter of 2019. The Company recorded net income from discontinued operations of $0.1 million and $46.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

The decrease in revenue was a result of the continued volatile macro-environment for U.S. onshore drilling and completion activity, the transition of personnel in the Company’s sales organization, and the deferral of completion activity by certain clients.

The change in income (loss) from operations was unfavorable for the ECT segment by $9.9 million and favorable by $15.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, versus the same period in 2018. The unfavorability for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily the result of lower sales volumes and lower plant utilization, partially offset by lower logistics and personnel costs. The favorability for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is due to a non-recurring impairment of goodwill of $37.2 million in 2018 and lower personnel costs, partially offset by lower sales volumes and lower plant utilization.

Discontinued Operations

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company classified the Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies segment as held for sale based on management’s intention to sell the business. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company completed the sale of the segment. The Company’s historical financial statements have been revised to present the operating results of the Consumer and Industrial Chemistry Technologies segment as discontinued operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There have been no transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as “structured finance” or “special purpose entities” (“SPEs”), established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As of September 30, 2019, the Company was not involved in any unconsolidated SPEs.

The Company has not made any guarantees to customers or vendors nor does the Company have any off-balance sheet arrangements or commitments that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, change in financial condition, revenue, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that would be material to investors other than the long term terpene agreement discussed in Note 3.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparation of these statements requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Part II, Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 2 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” and Part II, Item 7 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” of the Company’s Annual Report, and the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report describe the significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those that are both most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most subjective judgments. The Company regularly reviews and challenges judgments, assumptions, and estimates related to critical accounting policies. The Company’s estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and expected changes in the business environment; however, actual results may materially differ from the estimates. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s critical accounting estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements which may impact the Company are described in Note 2 — “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in Part I, Item 1 — “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Overview

The Company’s ongoing capital requirements arise from the Company’s need to acquire and maintain equipment, fund working capital requirements, and when the opportunities arise, to make strategic acquisitions and repurchase Company stock. During the first nine months of 2019, the Company funded capital requirements primarily with cash on hand, including proceeds from the sale of the CICT segment, and debt financing.

Historically, the Company’s primary source of debt financing was its $75 million Credit Facility with PNC Bank. Upon closing of the sale of the CICT segment, on March 1, 2019, the Company repaid the outstanding balance, interest, and fees related to the revolving credit facility, and subsequently terminated the Credit Facility. Significant terms of the Credit Facility are discussed in Note 13 — “Long-Term Debt and Credit Facility” in Part II, Item 8 — “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of the Company’s Annual Report.

The Company believes it has adequate liquidity to fund its ongoing operations and capital expenditures. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had available cash and cash equivalents of $107.0 million. For the remainder of 2019, the Company expects maintenance capital spending of approximately $0.3 million and does not have any specific growth capital projects currently planned or committed. Futhermore, the Company plans to use internally generated funds and cash on hand to fund operations and capital expenditures. With the proceeds from the sale of the CICT segment, the Company paid off its Credit Facility balance and formed a Strategic Capital Committee to evaluate and make recommendations to the board of directors regarding the manner in which the remaining net proceeds from the sale will be deployed. Subject to Board approval of any recommendations by the Strategic Capital Committee, the Company will continue to invest capital in what it believes to be economically attractive opportunities for its shareholders. This includes the potential for share repurchases included under our share repurchase program approved by the board of directors in June 2015.

Any excess cash generated may be used for outside growth opportunities or retained for future use.

Net cash used in financing activities was $49.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, due to using $49.7 million for repayments of debt, net of borrowings, associated with the termination of the Credit Facility and $0.2 million for purchases of treasury stock for tax withholding purposes related to the vesting of restricted stock awards.

Net cash generated through financing activities was $25.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to receiving $25.5 million for borrowings of debt, net of repayments, and receiving $0.3 million in proceeds from the sale of common stock, partially offset by a loss from noncontrolling interest of $0.4 million and $0.2 million related to debt issuance costs and purchase of treasury stock.

Contractual Obligations

Cash flows from operations are dependent on a variety of factors, including fluctuations in operating results, accounts receivable collections, inventory management, and the timing of payments for goods and services. Correspondingly, the impact of contractual obligations on the Company’s liquidity and capital resources in future periods is analyzed in conjunction with such factors.

Material contractual obligations consist of payments of finance and operating lease obligations. Contractual obligations at September 30, 2019, are as follows (in thousands):

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance that control objectives are attained. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide such reasonable assurance.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the principal executive and principal financial officers, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2019, as required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2019.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
