Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Significant Accounting Policies	Organization and Significant Accounting Policies Organization and Nature of Operations Flotek Industries, Inc. (“Flotek” or the “Company”) creates solutions to reduce the environmental impact of energy on air, water, land and people. A technology-driven, specialty green chemistry and data company, Flotek helps customers across industrial, commercial, and consumer markets improve their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance. The Company’s Chemistry Technologies (“CT”) segment develops, manufactures, packages, distributes, delivers, and markets green specialty chemicals that enhance the profitability of hydrocarbon producers and cleans surfaces in both commercial and personal settings to help reduce the spread of bacteria, viruses and germs. The Company’s Data Analytics (“DA”) segment enables users to maximize the value of their hydrocarbon associated processes by providing analytics associated with the streams in seconds rather than minutes or days. The real-time access to information prevents waste, reduces reprocessing and allows users to pursue automation of their hydrocarbon streams to maximize their profitability, reducing their carbon footprint, energy consumption and emissions. The Company formed the DA segment during the second quarter of 2020, after acquiring JP3 Measurement, LLC (“JP3”). The Company’s two operating segments, CT and DA, are both supported by its continuing Research & Innovation advanced laboratory capabilities. For further discussion of our operations and segments, see Note 18, “Business Segment, Geographic and Major Customer Information.” For further discussion of the JP3 acquisition, see Note 3, “Business Combination.” The Company was initially incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia in 1985. In October 2001, the Company changed its corporate domicile to the State of Delaware. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair statement 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 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. A copy of the 2020 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 information contained on the Company’s website does not form a part of this Quarterly Report. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company classified its warehouse facility in Monahans, Texas, as held for sale based on the criteria outlined in Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. During the first quarter, the Company committed to a plan to sell the asset in its present condition. The Company engaged with a commercial real estate agent and is actively looking for a buyer. As such, the Company reclassified the related property, plant and equipment of $0.5 million as held for sale in the current assets of the consolidated balance sheet, as the Company expects to complete the asset sale within one year. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company does not have investments in any unconsolidated subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Impact of COVID-19 In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. The pandemic negatively impacted the U.S. and global economy, disrupted domestic and international oil and gas markets, and increased volatility in financial markets. These effects materially and adversely affected, and may continue to materially and adversely affect, the demand for oil and natural gas as well as for our services and products. The Company’s primary markets in the U.S. are particularly subject to the impacts on the oil and gas industry. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded impairments to property, plant and equipment; intangible assets; and operating right-of-use assets. In the second half of 2020 the Company recorded additional impairment charges of goodwill and intangible assets as well as an increase to the provision of excess and obsolete inventory. The Company expects the current economic situation to negatively impact the energy sector for an extended period of time, with oil demand recovering during 2021 but not returning to the pre-COVID-19 level. Any further material COVID-19 disruption or significant setback in oil and gas demand arising from a slower economic recovery could negatively impact the Company and could result in additional impairments in the future. Future developments of the COVID-19 crisis are uncertain and related implications could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, operations, operating results, financial condition, liquidity and/or capital levels. The Company continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the business, suppliers and customers. Future developments and effects are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic. This uncertainty could have a material impact on accounting estimates and assumptions used in our consolidated financial statements. Under the provisions of the CARES Act, the Company is eligible for a refundable employee retention credit subject to certain criteria. In connection with the CARES Act, the Company adopted a policy to recognize the employee retention credit when earned and to offset the credit against the related payroll tax liability. Accordingly, the Company recorded a $1.9 million employee retention credit during the three months ended June 30, 2021 in other current assets with the offset recorded in accrued liabilities. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company used $0.8 million of the total employee retention credit leaving a $1.1 million credit to be applied against future payroll tax liabilities. Sources and Uses of Liquidity The Company currently funds its operations and growth primarily from cash on hand. The ability of the Company to grow and be competitive in the marketplace is dependent on the availability of adequate capital. Access to capital is dependent, in large part, on the Company’s operating cash flows, the monetization of excess and non-core assets, and the availability of and access to debt and equity financing. The Company has a history of losses and negative operating cash flows from operations and expects to utilize a significant amount of cash in operations in the following year. While we believe that our cash and liquid assets will provide us with sufficient financial resources to fund operations and meet our capital requirements and anticipated obligations as they become due, a prolonged COVID-19 impact, a slower than expected recovery of oil and gas markets, or reduced spending by our customers could have a negative impact on our liquidity. Accordingly, while the Company believes that its existing cash will enable it to fund its operations and growth, the Company cannot guarantee the level of cash flows in the future. In the event that the Company’s existing cash on hand is not sufficient to fund operations, meet its capital requirements or satisfy the anticipated obligations as they become due, the Company expects to take further action to protect its liquidity position. Such actions may include, but are not limited to: •Sale of non-core real estate properties; •Sale-leaseback transactions of facilities; •Sale of excess inventory and/or raw materials; •Entry into a borrowing facility with one or more lenders; •Reducing executive salaries and/or board of directors’ fees, or making a portion of those fees or salaries in equity instead of cash; •Reducing professional advisory fees and headcount; and •Raising equity either in the public markets or via a private placement offering. However, with respect to anticipated transactions, there can be no assurance that such matters can be implemented on acceptable terms or at all. 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 previously reported net loss and stockholders’ equity.
