Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

We are an industrial and oil and gas products and services company operating on six continents, focused on bromine-based completion fluids, calcium chloride, water management solutions, frac flowback and production well testing services. We were incorporated in Delaware in ~~1981. We~~1981 and are composed of 2 segments – Completion Fluids & Products Division and Water & Flowback Services Division. Unless the context requires otherwise, when we refer to “we,” “us,” and “our,” we are describing TETRA Technologies, Inc. and its ~~consolidated~~ subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

Presentation

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Operating results for the period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

We have reflected the operations of our former Compression Division and Offshore Division as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 2 - “Discontinued Operations” for further information. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relate solely to continuing operations and exclude all discontinued operations.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2022 (the “2021 A ~~nnual~~Annual Report”).

Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in our 2021 A ~~nnual~~Annual Report. There have been no significant changes in our accounting policies or the application thereof during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022.

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 and disclose contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, and impairments during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material.

Reclassifications

Certain previously reported financial information has been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. The impact of reclassifications was not significant to the prior year's overall presentation.

Foreign Currency Translation

We have designated the Euro, the British pound, the Canadian dollar, the Brazilian real, and the Mexican peso as the functional currencies for our operations in Finland and Sweden, the United Kingdom, Canada, Brazil,

Table of Contents

and certain of our operations in Mexico, respectively. The United States dollar is the designated functional currency for all of our other non-U.S. operations. The cumulative translation effects of translating the applicable accounts from the functional currencies into the United States dollar at current exchange rates are included as a separate component of equity. Foreign currency exchange (gains) and losses are included in other (income) expense, net and totaled $(0.8) million and ~~$(0.6)~~$(1.6) million during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, respectively, and $(0.2) million and $(1.0) million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

We utilize fair value measurements to account for certain items and account balances within our consolidated financial statements. Fair value measurements are utilized on a recurring basis in the determination of the carrying values of certain investments. See Note 78 - “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion. Fair value measurements are also utilized on a nonrecurring basis in certain circumstances, including the impairment of long-lived assets (a Level 3 fair value measurement).

Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Supplemental cash flow information from continuing and discontinued operations is as follows:


		Three Months Ended March 31,					Six Months Ended June 30,

New Accounting Pronouncements

Standards not yet adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in the more timely recognition of losses on financial instruments not accounted for at fair value through net income. The provisions require credit impairments to be measured over the contractual life of an asset and developed with consideration for past events, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic information. Credit impairment will be accounted for as an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis at each reporting date. We are continuing to work through our implementation plan which includes evaluating the impact on our allowance for doubtful accounts methodology, identifying new reporting requirements, and implementing changes to business processes, systems, and controls to support adoption of the standard. Upon adoption, the allowance for doubtful accounts is expected to increase with an offsetting adjustment to retained earnings. Updates at each reporting date after initial adoption will be recorded through selling, general, and administrative expense. ASU 2016-13 will become effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. We continue to assess the potential effects of these changes to our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. Entities may elect to apply the amendments for contract modifications made on or before December 31, 2022. During 2021, our asset-based credit agreement and term credit agreement were amended to allow replacement of LIBOR with another benchmark rate, such as the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) in the event that LIBOR cannot be determined or does not fairly reflect the cost to our lenders of funding our loans. If LIBOR is not available, we cannot predict what alternative index would be negotiated with our lenders. We will assess the impact of adopting ASU 2020-04 on our consolidated financial statements if or when our contracts are modified to eliminate references to LIBOR.

NOTE 2 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On January 29, 2021, we entered into the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Spartan Energy Partners, LP (“Spartan”) pursuant to which we sold the general partner of CSI Compressco, including the incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) in CSI Compressco LP, (“CSI Compressco”), and approximately 23.1% of the outstanding limited partner interests in CSI Compressco, in exchange for the combination of $13.9 million in cash and $3.1 million in contingent consideration in the form of cash and/or CSI Compressco common units if CSI Compressco achieves certain financial targets on or before December 31, 2022. Throughout this Quarterly Report, we refer to this transaction as the “GP Sale.” Following the closing of the transaction, we retained an interest in CSI Compressco representing approximately 3.7% of the outstanding common units as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022. As a result of these transactions, we no longer consolidate CSI Compressco as of January 29, 2021. We recognized a primarily non-cash accounting gain of $120.6 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 related to the GP Sale. The gain is included in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes in our consolidated statement of operations. We provided back-office support to CSI Compressco under a Transition Services Agreement that ended during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we sold equipment to CSI Compressco for approximately $0.3 million. Our interest in CSI Compressco and the general partner represented substantially all of our Compression Division.

In addition, on March 1, 2018, we closed a series of related transactions that resulted in the disposition of our Offshore Division, consisting of our Offshore Services and Maritech segments. Our former Compression and Offshore Divisions are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Our consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations report discontinued operations separate from continuing operations. Our consolidated statements of comprehensive income, statements of equity and statements of cash flows combine continuing and discontinued operations. Our prior-year consolidated statement of operations, statement of comprehensive income, statement of equity and statement of cash flows include CSI Compressco activity for January 1 through January ~~29.~~29 in 2021. Our consolidated statements of cash flows for the ~~three-month~~six-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 included $3.0 million, of capital expenditures related to our former Compression division. A summary of financial information related to our discontinued operations is as follows:

In May 2021, we signed a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with CarbonFree, a carbon capture company with patented technologies that capture CO2 and mineralize emissions to make commercial, carbon-negative chemicals. Although the MOU expired in May 2022 at the end of its twelve-month term, we have an intellectual property joint development agreement in place with CarbonFree to evaluate potential new technologies. In December 2021, we invested $5.0 million in a convertible note issued by CarbonFree. Our exposure to potential losses by CarbonFree is limited to our investment in the convertible note and associated accrued interest.

Financial Instruments

Investments

We retained an interest in CSI Compressco (NASDAQ: CCLP) representing approximately 3.7% of CSI Compressco’s outstanding common units as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022.

In December 2021, we invested in a $5.0 million convertible note issued by CarbonFree. Our investment in CarbonFree is recorded in investments on our consolidated balance sheets based on an internal valuation with assistance from a third-party valuation specialist (a Level 3 fair value measurement). The valuation is impacted by key assumptions, including the assumed probability and timing of potential debt or equity offerings.

We are party to agreements in which Standard Lithium has the right to explore, produce and extract lithium in our Arkansas leases as well as additional potential resources in the Mojave region of California. The Company receives cash and stock of Standard Lithium (NYSE:SLI) under the terms of the arrangements. The cash and stock component of consideration received is initially recorded as unearned income based on the quoted market price at the time the stock is received, then recognized in income over the contract term.

Our investments in CSI Compressco isand Standard Lithium are recorded based on the quoted market stock price in active markets (a Level 1 fair value measurement). Changes in the value of stock are recorded in other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report. In addition, the following discussion and analysis also should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 28, 2022 (“2021 Annual Report”). This discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties.

Business Overview

We are an industrial and oil and gas products and services company operating on six continents, focused on bromine-based completion fluids, calcium chloride, water management solutions, frac flowback and production well testing services. Calcium chloride is used in the oil and gas industry, and also has broad industrial applications to the agricultural, road, food and beverage and lithium production markets. We are composed of two segments – Completion Fluids & Products Division and Water & Flowback Services Division.

~~Following a steady ramp up throughout 2021, customer~~Customer activity levels continued to trend upward ~~in the first quarter of 2022~~ as sustained high oil prices increased to an average of ~~over $95~~approximately $109 per barrel for the second quarter of 2022, and natural gas prices averaged ~~$4.67~~$7.50 per million Btu. ~~Consolidated~~As a result, second quarter consolidated revenue of ~~$130.0~~$270.8 million is very comparable to the pre-pandemic ~~first quarter 2020~~ period, but with significantly fewer operating frac crews in the United States.

~~Completions~~Completion Fluids & Products Division revenues ~~improved over~~were slightly higher sequentially, with the ~~fourth~~seasonal increase for our Northern Europe industrial chemicals business partially offset by lower Gulf of Mexico and international fluid sales as the first quarter benefited from sales pulling forward from the second quarter. However with much higher oil prices continuing to drive demand, revenues were significantly higher compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher completions activity in the Gulf of Mexico and international ~~markets, and an increase in industrial chemicals product sales.~~markets. While drilling and completion activity has not returned to pre-pandemic levels, we have continued to successfully ~~leveraged~~leverage opportunities to expand integrated services to completion fluids customers, resulting in Completion Fluids & Products revenues reaching near pre-pandemic ~~results.~~levels. Our Completion Fluids & Products Division also continued to ship TETRA's high purity zinc bromine solution, TETRA PureFlow® to Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. ("Eos") (NASDAQ: EOSE) under our recent strategic partnership. ~~The size~~Our sales to Eos increased materially during the second quarter compared to the first quarter of ~~the shipments are expected to increase~~2022 as Eos expands its production capacity to meet its growing backlog and to service its increasing number of identified ~~opportunities. Margins also improved as we have been able to negotiate higher pricing to offset inflationary pressures in certain raw materials and logistics costs.~~opportunities

We have not historically directly purchased any significant volumes of raw materials from Russia nor from Ukraine. Additionally, we have not historically sold any significant volumes of product ~~into~~to Russia or to Ukraine. However, one of our raw material providers ~~sources~~sourced one of their raw materials from Russia or Ukraine. Because of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, toward the end of the first quarter, our primary European supplier of ~~hydrochloric acid~~certain raw materials advised us of supply constraints with one of their suppliers of a key raw material used in their manufacturing process. This raw material is a widely used, global commodity but the disruption to the current supply chain has caused some impact on their production which in turn has caused a reduction in delivered volumes of ~~hydrochloric acid~~certain raw materials to our plant in Finland where we manufacture calcium chloride, which has decreased our calcium chloride production ~~volumes. The financial~~volumes and had some impact on ~~first~~second quarter ~~results for our European industrial chemicals business was not significant but could become more significant~~margins. Our supplier has sourced their material from an alternative location and resumed supplying reduced volumes to ~~our Northern European calcium chloride production operations as the year progresses if these supply chain challenges continue.~~us. We are ~~working~~also continuing to work with secondary and tertiary raw material providers on options to address the situation and mitigate the financial impact and we are told from our primary provider that they expect improved deliveries and a more normalized supply chain as they progress through the second half of the year. The exact financial impact isremains difficult to quantify at this time and is dependent on our ability to find alternative sources of ~~acid~~certain raw materials from suppliers not directly or indirectly impacted by the conflict or the ability of our primary supplier to source alternative raw material sources.

Our Water & Flowback Services revenues ~~increased slightly~~improved over the ~~fourth~~first quarter and significantly compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2021 due to a combination of ~~higher overall~~continued increases in customer activity levels and ~~significant~~continued price recovery, particularly in the United States onshore land business. The second quarter revenue for our United States land business was the highest since the third quarter of 2019, despite significantly lower drilling and fracking activity compared to prior years. We ~~deployed our~~continue to add TETRA SandStormTM ~~technology for two major long-term projects in Latin America during 2021 and continue to add SandStorm~~(“SandStorm”) units to United States onshore markets at rates approaching pre-pandemic pricing. ~~Despite significant recent capital investments in our Sandstorm technology, we~~We continue to ~~experience capacity constraints, with pricing in several regions approaching pre-pandemic levels.~~see strong utilization for our SandStorm technology and continue to invest additional capital for new units as activity remains strong. During the quarter, we secured a patent on this unique sand filtration technology. Our focus on produced water treatment and recycling continues to generate results with ~~several~~four new recycling ~~awards in~~projects added during the ~~first quarter, including our first recycling project for a mid-stream company.~~second quarter. Revenue growth

was a result of the continued increase in the number of integrated projects and customers, high utilization of SandStorm units and market share gains with private oil and gas operators.

We are committed to pursuing low-carbon energy initiatives that leverage our fluids and aqueous chemistry core competencies, our significant bromine and lithium assets and technologies, and our leading calcium chloride production capabilities. During the first quarter of 2022, we completed the drilling of our Arkansas exploration well and, ~~commenced gathering~~during the second quarter of ~~fluid~~2022, we secured samples for multiple Smackover formation brine zones. ~~We expect the ongoing~~Ongoing bromine and lithium fluid analysis ~~will allow us~~from these samples is being used to ~~complete an inferred resources~~progress a resource report for both the bromine and lithium in our approximately 31,100 net acre brine leases in Arkansas. The resource report is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2022. We are also in the process of ~~bidding and awarding the~~completing an engagement agreement with an engineering firm to begin work ~~for~~on a ~~preliminary economic assessment~~Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) to determine the economics of developing 3,600 net acres under which we hold exclusive brine rights to meet the demand for bromine-based fluids for both a growing oil and gas market as well as a rapidly growing energy storage market. In addition to the bromine, we plan to ultimately extract lithium from the same brine feed, which we expect will greatly benefit the financial returns for the project.

Substantially all of our former Compression Division’s operations were conducted through our partially-owned CSI Compressco subsidiary. On January 29, 2021, we closed the sale of the general partner of CSI Compressco, which included the sale of the incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) in CSI Compressco and approximately 23.1% of the outstanding limited partner interests in CSI Compressco, referred to as the “GP Sale.” We recorded a book gain of $120.6 million during 2021 in connection with the GP Sale. This gain, most of which was non-cash, was a function of CSI Compressco having a negative carrying value within our consolidated balance sheet due to our share of cumulative losses and distributions. We have reflected the operations of our former Compression Division as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 2 – “Discontinued Operations” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Results of Operations

The following information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the associated Notes contained elsewhere in this report. In November 2020, the SEC issued a final rule to modernize and simplify Management’s Discussion and Analysis and certain financial disclosure requirements in SEC Regulation S-K. As permitted by this final rule, the analysis herein reflects the optional approach to discuss results of operations on a sequential-quarter basis, which we believe will provide information that is most useful in assessing our quarterly results of operations going forward. Also as required by the final rule, we have included the comparison of the current quarter to the prior-year quarter for this filing only, and will cease to provide this comparison in future filings. We will continue to provide a comparison of year-to-date results to the prior year-to-date period.

Consolidated revenues increased in the current quarter primarily due to an increase in overall activity for both the Completion Fluids & Products division and Water ~~Management~~ & Flowback Services division, as sustained high commodity prices continued ~~to move upward~~ for both crude oil and natural gas. See Divisional Comparisons section below for a more detailed discussion of the change in our revenues.

Consolidated gross profit as a percentage of revenue ~~improved~~decreased primarily due to ~~a change in revenue mix, with a higher portion of revenues generated from our Completion Fluids & Products division, as well as a~~the $3.8 million insurance settlement received in March 2022 from prior damage to our Lake Charles facility, ~~during Hurricane Laura~~and $2.3 million of impairments recognized in ~~2020.~~the current quarter. See Divisional Comparisons section below for additional discussion.

Consolidated exploration and appraisal costs decreased as the drilling of our exploratory brine well in Arkansas was completed during the first quarter of 2022 and sample analysis continued during the second quarter.

Consolidated general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to $2.3 million of increased salary and employee expenses. Higher salary expenses were ~~$1.9~~mainly due to increased short and long-term variable incentive costs driven by strong year-to-date financial and stock price performance, as well as divisional headcount additions to support increased activity levels.

Consolidated other income, net, decreased in the current quarter, compared to the prior quarter primarily due to the change in the unit price of the CSI Compressco common units we retained, from a $1.1 million gain in the prior quarter to a $0.5 million loss in the current period, and a $0.8 million unrealized loss from our investment in Standard Lithium shares received in April 2022. These decreases are partially offset by a $0.6 million unrealized gain on our investment in CarbonFree recognized during the second quarter, as well as a $0.3 million increase in gains on asset sales.

Consolidated benefit for income tax was $0.5 million, during the current quarter, compared to a $1.2 million expense during the prior quarter. Our consolidated effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was negative 37.4% due primarily to the impact that changes in the full-year forecast had on our interim reporting under Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes. We establish a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Included in our deferred tax assets are net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits that are available to offset future income tax liabilities in the United States as well as in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions.

Revenues for our Completion Fluids & Products Division increased slightly as the seasonal uplift from our Northern European chemicals business was partially offset by lower Gulf of Mexico and international fluid sales as the first quarter benefited from sales pulled forward from the second quarter.

Gross profit for our Completion Fluids & Products Division decreased compared to the prior quarter period due to a $3.8 million insurance settlement received in March 2022 from damage to our Lake Charles facility. Completion Fluids & Products Division profitability in future periods will continue to be affected by the mix of its products and services, market demand for our products and services, drilling and completions activity, supply chain challenges and inflationary pressures.

Pretax income for our Completion Fluids & Products Division decreased primarily due to the $4.1 million lower gross profit described above, a $1.1 million increase in foreign exchange losses and a $0.8 million unrealized loss from our investment in Standard Lithium shares received in April 2022. These decreases were partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in costs associated with the conclusion of our exploratory brine well drilled during the first quarter of 2022 as well as $0.6 million unrealized gain on our investment in CarbonFree recognized during the second quarter.

Revenues for our Water & Flowback Services Division increased for both water management and production testing in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to the continued higher overall customer activity in the North America onshore business. The higher customer activity can be attributed to sustained high commodity prices.

Gross profit for our Water & Flowback Services Division decreased compared to the prior quarter due to impairment expenses for obsolete assets and inventory. Excluding the impairment, gross profit is consistent with increased activity level with similar pricing fall through. We expect the third-quarter Adjusted EBITDA margins to further improve reflecting continued better pricing for our United States onshore land business, stronger activity levels and the commencement of operations of two early production facilities in Argentina.

The Water & Flowback Services Division pretax income decreased due to a decrease in gross profit and an increase in general and administrative expense. General and administrative expense increased due to higher compensation and benefits from higher salaries, additional headcount as well as a $0.5 million increase professional services from contract labor. Income for our Water & Flowback Services Division also increased due to a $0.2 million increase in gains on sales of assets and $0.7 million increase in foreign exchange gains.

Revenues for our Water & Flowback Services Division increased for both water management and production testing due to much overall higher customer drilling and completion ~~activity compared to the prior year quarter.~~activity. Customer activity levels have continued to improve, ~~especially~~primarily in ~~the~~our North America ~~onshore~~land business as commodity prices have not only recovered but remained high for both crude oil and natural gas ~~prices have recovered.~~compared to the prior year period.

Gross profit for our Water & Flowback Services Division improved substantially from a loss in the prior year to double-digit profit in the current ~~quarter,~~year, primarily due to higher revenues resulting from the increased activity levels described above and pricing improvements as activity levels improved.

~~The~~Pretax income for our Water & Flowback Services Division ~~reported higher pretax income~~increased in the current ~~quarter~~year primarily due to an improvement in the gross profit described above ~~slightly~~and a $0.9 million increase in foreign exchange gains, offset by an increase in general and administrative expense primarily due a ~~$1.4~~$3.2 million increase in salary and employee expense ~~from higher activity levels~~due to reinstatement of full salaries and ~~salary reinstatement~~401K match as well as higher short and long-term incentive expenses, and divisional headcount additions to support higher activity levels; a ~~$0.5~~$0.6 million ~~decrease~~increase in ~~interest income.~~general expenses primarily due to increased rent to support higher activity; and a $0.4 million increase in professional services also supporting higher activity.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use U.S. GAAP financial measures such as revenues, gross profit, income (loss) before taxes, and net cash provided by operating activities, as well as certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, as performance measures for our business.

~~Table of Contents~~

Adjusted EBITDA. We view Adjusted EBITDA as one of our primary management tools, and we track it on a monthly basis, both in dollars and as a percentage of revenues (typically compared to the prior month, prior year period, and to budget). We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments, exploration and appraisal costs and certain other non-cash charges and non-recurring adjustments.

Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by our management to:

•evaluate the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structure, or historical cost basis; and

•determine our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures.

The following table reconciles net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated:

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This measure may not be comparable to similarly titled financial metrics of other companies, as other companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner as we do. Management compensates for the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool by reviewing the comparable U.S. GAAP measures, understanding the differences between the measures, and incorporating this knowledge into management’s decision-making processes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that our capital structure allows us to meet our financial obligations despite current uncertain operating conditions and financial markets. Our liquidity at the end of ~~first~~the second quarter was ~~$95.3~~$103.0 million. Liquidity is defined as unrestricted cash plus availability under the ABL Credit Agreement, ~~and~~ Swedish Credit ~~Facility.~~Facility and Finland Credit Agreement. Information about the terms and covenants of our debt agreements can be found in our ~~202~~1 2021 Annual Report and in Note 56 - Long Term Debt and Other Borrowings.

Our consolidated sources and uses of cash, which include cash activity from our former Compression Division for January 2021 prior to the closing of the GP sale, are as follows:

Operating Activities

Consolidated cash flows provided by operating activities increased ~~slightly~~ compared to the first ~~three~~six months of 2021 primarily due to an increase in cash profit, partially offset by the effect of working capital movements and $0.9 million of prior-year cash flows provided by operating activities generated by CSI Compressco in January prior to closing of the GP Sale.

~~Table of Contents~~

Investing Activities

Total cash capital expenditures during the first ~~three~~six months of 2022 were ~~$9.3~~$20.4 million, which reflects front-loading our expected full year expenditures to accommodate industry-wide activity recoveries. Our Water & Flowback Services Division spent ~~$7.4~~$15.9 million on capital expenditures, primarily to deploy additional SandStorm units to meet increased demands and maintain, automate and upgrade its water management and flowback equipment fleet. Water and Flowback Services Division capital expenditures also included expenditures related to construction of early production facilities in Argentina, including approximately $2.0 million of costs that were reimbursed by customers. Our Completion Fluids & Products Division spent ~~$1.9~~$4.4 million on capital expenditures.

Investing activities during the first ~~three~~six months of 2022 included a $3.8 million insurance settlement received in March 2022 from damage to our Lake Charles facility in 2020.

Historically, a significant majority of our planned capital expenditures have been related to identified opportunities to grow and expand our existing businesses. We are also focused on enhancing shareholder value by capitalizing on our key mineral assets, brine mineral extraction expertise, and deep chemistry competency to expand our offerings into the low carbon energy markets. However, we continue to review all capital expenditure plans carefully in an effort to conserve cash. We currently have no long-term capital expenditure commitments. If the forecasted demand for our products and services increases or decreases, the amount of planned expenditures on growth and expansion may be adjusted.

Lithium and Bromine Exploration Targets

We have rights to the brine underlying our approximately 31,100 net acres of brine leases in the Smackover Formation in Southwest Arkansas, including rights to the bromine and lithium contained in the brine. With respect to approximately 27,500 acres of that total acreage, we had previously entered into an agreement granting Standard Lithium an option to acquire lithium rights. The agreements governing this option contemplate a 2.5% royalty that Standard Lithium would pay us based on gross lithium revenues. Additional information on these exploration targets is described in Part I, “Item 2. Properties” in our 2021 Annual Report.

In August 2021, we announced the completion of a preliminary technical assessment by an independent geological consulting firm to assess lithium and bromine exploration targets in our approximately 31,100 net acres. During the first ~~quarter of~~six months 2022, we incurred ~~$1.9~~$2.6 million to complete the drilling of our Arkansas exploration well and obtain and analyze fluid samples for multiple Smackover formation brine zones. ~~We expect the ongoing~~Ongoing bromine and lithium fluid analysis ~~will allow us~~from these samples is being used to ~~complete an inferred resources~~progress a resource report for both the bromine and lithium in our approximately 31,100 net acre brine leases in Arkansas. ~~We are~~The resource report is expected to be completed in the ~~process~~third quarter of ~~bidding and awarding the~~2022. We have engaged an engineering firm to begin work ~~for~~on a PEA to determine the economics of developing 3,600 net acres under which we hold exclusive brine rights to meet the demand for bromine-based fluids for both a growing oil and gas market as well as a rapidly growing energy storage market. In addition to the bromine, we plan to ultimately extract lithium from the same brine feed which we expect will greatly benefit the financial returns for the project.

Financing Activities

As a result of TETRA’s strong cash flow from operations in 2020 and the proceeds from the GP Sale, during the first ~~three~~six months of 2021, we repaid ~~$29.5~~$29.3 million on our term credit agreement. We repaid an additional $21.0 million on our term credit agreement during 2021 using proceeds from the sale of Standard Lithium shares and cash flows from operations. Our financing activities for the fist six months of 2022 include $1.2 million of capital lease payments associated with equipment leased for the early production facilities in Argentina. We may supplement our existing cash balances and cash flow from operating activities with short-term borrowings, long-term borrowings, issuances of equity and debt securities, and other sources of capital. We are aggressively managing our working capital and capital expenditure needs in order to maximize our liquidity in the current environment.

Long-Term Debt

Asset-Based Credit Agreement. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, our ABL Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility of up to $80.0 million, with a $20.0 million accordion. The credit facility is subject to a borrowing base to be determined by reference to the value of inventory and accounts receivable, and includes a sublimit of $20.0 million for letters of credit, a swingline loan sublimit of $11.5 million, and a $15.0 million sub-facility subject to a borrowing base consisting of certain trade receivables and inventory in the United Kingdom. The amounts we may borrow under the ABL Credit Agreement are derived from our accounts receivable, certain accrued receivables and certain inventory. Changes in demand for our products and services have an impact on our eligible accounts receivable, accrued receivables and the value of our inventory, which could result in significant changes to

~~Table of Contents~~

our borrowing base and therefore our availability under our ABL Credit Agreement. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had ~~$0.8 million~~zero outstanding and $6.0 million in letters of credit and guarantees against our ABL Credit Agreement and availability of ~~$58.6~~$61.8 million, subject to compliance with the covenants, borrowing base, and other provisions of the ABL Credit Agreement.

Swedish Credit Facility. In January 2022, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility for seasonal working capital needs of subsidiaries in Sweden. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had ~~$1.5~~less than $0.1 million outstanding and availability of approximately ~~$3.8~~$4.9 million United States dollars under this agreement. During each year, all outstanding loans under the Swedish Credit Facility must be repaid for at least 30 consecutive days. Borrowings

Table of Contents

bear interest at a rate of 2.95% per annum. The Swedish Credit Facility expires on December 31, 2022 and the Company intends to renew it annually.

Finland Credit Agreement. The Company also entered into a new credit agreement guaranteed by certain accounts receivable and inventory in Finland (“Finland Credit Agreement”). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, there were US$~~1.8~~1.4 million of letters of credit outstanding against the Finland Credit Agreement.

Term Credit Agreement. The ~~term credit agreement~~Term Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on September 10, 2025. Our ~~term credit agreement~~Term Credit Agreement requires us to offer to prepay a percentage of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the ~~term credit agreement)~~Term Credit Agreement) within five business days of filing our Annual Report. As of ~~April~~July 29, 2022, $163.1 million in aggregate principal amount of our ~~term credit agreement~~Term Credit Agreement is outstanding.

Other Sources and Uses of Cash

In addition to the aforementioned credit facilities and senior notes, we fund our short-term liquidity requirements from cash generated by our operations and from short-term vendor financing. In addition, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, the market value of our ~~investment~~investments in CSI Compressco ~~was $7.3~~and Standard Lithium were $6.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, with no holding restrictions on our ability to monetize our interest. We also hold ~~a $5.0 million~~an investment in convertible notes issued by CarbonFree valued at $5.6 million as of ~~March 31, 2022.~~June 30, 2022, excluding accrued interest. In addition, we are party to agreements in which Standard Lithium has the right to explore, and an option to acquire the right to produce and extract Lithium in our Arkansas leases as well as additional potential resources in the Mojave region of California. We ~~expect to receive~~received 400,000 shares of Standard Lithium stock during the second quarter of 2022 under the terms of this agreement.

On May 5, 2022, we filed a universal shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 with the SEC. On May 17, 2022, the Registration Statement on Form S-3 was declared effective by the SEC. Pursuant to this registration statement, we have the ability to sell debt or equity securities in one or more public offerings up to an aggregate public offering price of $400 million. This shelf registration statement currently provides us additional flexibility with regards to potential financing that we may undertake when market conditions permit or our financial condition may require.

Should additional capital be required, the ability to raise such capital through the issuance of additional debt or equity securities may currently be limited. Instability or volatility in the capital markets at the times we need to access capital may affect the cost of capital and the ability to raise capital for an indeterminable length of time. If it is necessary to issue additional equity to fund our capital needs, additional dilution of our common stockholders will occur. We periodically evaluate engaging in strategic transactions and may consider divesting non-core assets where our evaluation suggests such transactions are in the best interest of our business. In challenging economic environments, we may experience increased delays and failures by customers to pay our invoices. If our customers delay paying or fail to pay us a significant amount of our outstanding receivables, it could have an adverse effect on our liquidity. An increase of unpaid receivables would also negatively affect our borrowing availability under the ABL Credit Agreement.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had no “off balance sheet arrangements” that may have a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no material changes or developments in the evaluation of the accounting estimates and

the underlying assumptions or methodologies pertaining to our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates disclosed

in our ~~202~~1 2021 Annual Report. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make assumptions, estimates, and judgments that affect the amounts reported. These judgments and estimates may change as new events occur, as new information is acquired, and as changes in our operating environments are encountered. Actual results are likely to differ from our current estimates, and those differences may be material.

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are identifiable by the use of the following words, the negative of such words, and other similar words: “anticipates”, “assumes”, “believes”, “budgets”, “could”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “goal”, “intends”, “may”, “might”, “plans”, “predicts”, “projects”, “schedules”, “seeks”, “should”, “targets”, “will”, and “would”.

These forward-looking statements include statements concerning the exploration targets of lithium and bromine, the potential extraction of lithium and bromine from the leased acreage and the economic viability thereof, the timing and cost of such activities, and statements regarding the Company's beliefs, expectations, plans, goals, future events and performance, and other statements that are not purely historical.

Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report and in our 2021 Annual Report, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk

The interest on our borrowings is subject to market risk exposure related to changes in applicable interest rates. Borrowings under our Swedish Credit Facility bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.95%. Borrowings under our ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at an agreed-upon percentage rate spread above LIBOR. Borrowings under the Term Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of TETRA, either (i) LIBOR (subject to a 1% floor) plus a margin of 6.25% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus a margin of 5.25% per annum. The following table sets forth as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, the principal amount due under our long-term debt obligations and their respective weighted average interest rates. We are not a party to an interest rate swap contract or other derivative instrument designed to hedge our exposure to interest rate fluctuation risk.

Exchange Rate Risk

We are exposed to fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the euro with regard to our euro-denominated operating activities. We also have currency exchange rate risk exposure related to revenues, expenses, operating receivables, and payables denominated in foreign currencies. We may enter into 30-day foreign-currency forward derivative contracts as part of a program designed to mitigate the currency exchange rate risk exposure on selected transactions of certain foreign subsidiaries. Although contracts pursuant to this program will serve as an economic hedge of the cash flow of our currency exchange risk exposure, they are not expected to be formally designated as hedge contracts or qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, any change in the fair value of these derivative instruments during a period will be included in the determination of earnings for that period. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we did not have any foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

On May 31, 2022, TETRA filed a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association under a certain Bromine Requirements Sales Agreement between TETRA and LANXESS Corporation (formerly Chemtura Corporation, “LANXESS”) (the “Sales Agreement”).

Under the Sales Agreement, TETRA agreed to purchase a certain volume of elemental bromine. LANXESS notified TETRA of a proposed non-ordinary course increase to the price of bromine, which TETRA believes is not justified nor appropriate under the Sales Agreement. After lengthy discussions, TETRA and LANXESS were unable to reach an agreement regarding the validity of the proposed price increase; therefore, TETRA filed for arbitration seeking declaratory relief, among other relief, declaring that the proposed price increase is invalid.

The arbitration is currently pending, and no final hearing date has been set.TETRA is presently unable to predict the duration, scope or result of this proceeding.

For more information regarding litigation, see “Item 1. Legal Proceedings” in our 2021 Annual Report and Note 67 - “Commitments and Contingencies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As of the date of this filing, TETRA and its operations continue to be subject to the risk factors previously disclosed in the “Risk Factors” sections contained in our ~~202~~1 2021 Annual Report.
