Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Superior included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") ("U.S." or "United States") and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Intercompany items have been eliminated in consolidation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and filed with the SEC. Management believes that the information furnished includes all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary to fairly present our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

 

The Company refers to the condensed consolidated financial statements collectively as “financial statements,” and individually as “statements of comprehensive income,” “balance sheets,” “statements of shareholders’ equity,” and “statements of cash flows” herein.

 

Reclassifications

 

The accompanying financial statements for the previous year contain certain reclassifications. Reclassifications only impact items within Note 9 and have no effect on previously reported results of operations.

 

Written Put Options

 

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into written put options with a former employee that, if exercised by the former employee, requires the Company to repurchase up to 207,970 shares of its common stock at fair market value (as defined in the agreement), subject to certain limitations. The original fair value of the written put options upon entering into the agreement was $3.6 million. The written put options expire after twenty-four months and contain certain quarterly maximums. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, a total of 37,524 written put options expired unexercised resulting in a $0.6 million reduction in other current liabilities with an offset to additional paid-in capital. The written put options are liabilities under ASC 480,Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” because the options embody obligations to repurchase the Company’s shares by paying cash. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the written put options was $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The fair value of the written put options is based directly on the Company’s stock price and included in other current liabilities in our balance sheets. We recognized an unrealized loss of $0.4 million and an unrealized gain of $0.4 million on written put options during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses from changes in the fair value of the written put options are included within selling and administrative expenses in our statements of comprehensive income. At March 31, 2024, the Company’s remaining repurchase obligation under the written put options comprised 95,400 shares of its common stock.
