Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

These notes apply to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. a Colorado corporation (the "Company", “NGSG”, "Natural Gas Services Group", "we" or "our"). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiary, NGSG Properties, LLC and the rabbi trust associated with the Company's deferred compensations plan, see Note 4. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions for the periods presented have been eliminated in consolidation.

These financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to make our financial position at ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 and the results of our operations for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019 and 2018 ~~and 2017~~ not misleading. As permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 on file with the SEC. In our opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements are a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the periods presented.

The results of operations for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

Revenue Recognition Policy

The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606") on January, 1, 2018. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policy for revenue recognition as detailed below.

The Company applied ASC 606 using the cumulative effect method. We had no significant changes in our recognition of revenue at adoption and our review of all open revenue from contracts with customers on January 1, 2018 indicated we had no adjustment to be made. If an adjustment had been needed, we would have recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC 606 with an adjustment to the opening balance of equity at January 1, 2018. Therefore, our consolidated financial statements for 2017 reported under ASC 605 are comparable to the consolidated financial statements for 2018 reported under ASC 606, since an adjustment was not needed, except for the respective additional disclosures as detailed below.

Revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a customer’s contract, excluding any sale incentives and taxes collected on behalf of third parties (i.e. sales and property taxes). We recognize revenue once a performance obligation has been satisfied and control over a product or service has transferred to the customer. Shipping and handling costs incurred are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of revenues in our condensed consolidated income statement.

Nature of ~~goods~~Goods and Services

The following is a description of principal activities from which the Company generates its revenue:

Rental Revenue. The Company generates revenue from renting compressors and flare systems to our customers. These contracts may also include a fee for servicing the compressor or flare during the rental contract. Our rental contracts range from six to twenty-four months, with revenue being recognized over time, in equal payments over the term of the contract. After the terms of the contract have expired, a customer may renew their contract or continue renting on a monthly basis thereafter. In accordance ~~with generally accepted accounting principles,~~ASC 842 – Leases, we have applied the ~~revenue earned from servicing rental equipment is recognized in accordance with~~practical expedient ASC ~~606~~, ~~while~~842-10-15-42A, which allows the ~~revenue earned from the rental of the equipment is recognized in accordance withASC 840~~ ~~- Leases~~.Company to combine lease and non-lease components.

Sales Revenue. The Company generates revenue by the sale of custom/fabricated compressors, flare systems and parts, as well as, exchange/rebuilding customer owned compressors and sale of used rental equipment.

Custom/fabricated compressors and flare systems - The Company designs and fabricates compressors and flares based on the customer’s specifications outlined in their contract. Though the equipment being built is customized by the customer,

control under these contracts does not pass to the customer until the compressor or flare package is complete and shipped, or in accordance with a bill and hold arrangements the customer accepts title and assumes the risk and rewards of ownership. We request some of our customers to make progressive payments as the product is being built; these payments are recorded as a contract liability on the Deferred Income line on the condensed consolidated balance sheet until control has been transferred.

These contracts also may include an assurance warranty clause to guarantee the product is free from defects in material and workmanship for a set duration of time; this is a standard industry practice and is not considered a performance obligation.

From time to time, upon the customer’s written request, we recognize revenue when manufacturing is complete and the equipment is ready for shipment. At the customer’s request, we will bill the customer upon completing all performance obligations, but before shipment. The customer will formally request we ship the equipment per their direction from our manufacturing facility at a later specified date and that we segregate the equipment from our finished goods, such that they are not available to fill other orders. Per the customer’s agreement change of control is passed to the customer once the equipment is complete and ready for shipment. We have operated using bill and hold agreements with certain customers for many years, with consistent satisfactory results for both the customer and us. The credit terms on these agreements are consistent with the credit terms on all other sales. All control is shouldered by the customer and there are no exceptions to the customer’s commitment to accept and pay for the manufactured equipment. Revenues recognized ~~at the completion of manufacturing~~related to bill and hold arrangements for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 was approximately ~~$6.3~~$2.7 million.

Parts - Revenue is recognized after the customer obtains control of the parts. Control is passed either by the customer taking physical possession or the parts being shipped. The amount of revenue recognized is not adjusted for expected returns, as our historical part returns have been de minimis.

Exchange or rebuilding customer owned compressors - Based on the contract, the Company will either exchange a new/rebuilt compressor for the customer’s malfunctioning compressor or rebuild the customer’s compressor. Revenue is recognized after control of the replacement compressor has transferred to the customer by physical delivery, delivery and installment or shipment of the compressor.

Used compressors or flares - From time to time, a customer may request to purchase a used compressor or flare out of our rental fleet. Revenue from the sale of rental equipment is recognized when the control has passed to the customer, when the customer has taken physical possession or the equipment has been shipped.

Service and Maintenance Revenue. The Company provides routine or call-out services on customer owned equipment. Revenue is recognized after services in the contract are rendered.

Payment terms for sales revenue and service and maintenance revenue discussed above are generally 30 to 60 days although terms for specific customers can vary. Also, the transaction prices are not subject to variable consideration constraints.

Contract Costs

The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4 and recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expense on our consolidated income statement.

Leases

On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842, Leases ("ASC 842") and all the related amendments using the modified retrospective method. We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new lease standard and had no adjustments to retained earnings. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the lease accounting standard in effect for those periods. We do not expect the adoption of the new lease standard to have a material impact to our net income on an ongoing basis.

The new lease standard requires all leases to be reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease obligations. We elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance of the new standard that retained the lease classification and initial direct costs for any leases that existed prior to adoption of the standard. We did not reassess whether any contracts or land easements entered into prior to adoption are leases or contain leases.

The cumulative effect of the changes made to our consolidated balance sheet at January 1, 2019, for the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases, was as follows (in thousands):


	Balance at December 31, 2018	Adjustments due to ASU 2016-02	Balance at January 1, 2019
Balance Sheet
Assets
Right of use assets	—	451	451
Liabilities
Current portion of operating leases	—	126	126
Long term portion of operating leases	—	325	325

The Company, as a lessee, applies the practical expedient in ASC 842-10-15-37, and does not separate non-lease components from lease components, therefore, accounting for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease component, as a single lease component.

The Company, as a lessor, applies the practical expedient in ASC 842-10-15-42A, in leases that contain the same timing and pattern of transfer for lease and non-lease components and are deemed operating leases, the lessor is not required to separate non-lease components from lease components. Therefore, on any lease that meets these qualifications we have chosen to account for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease component, as a single lease component.

The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 842-20-25-2, to recognize the lease payments in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred for leases with terms of 12 months or less.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, deferred compensation plan (cash portion) and our line of credit. Pursuant to ASC 820 (Accounting Standards Codification), the fair value of our cash equivalents is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their fair values because of their nature (variable rate debt) and relatively short maturity dates or durations.

Income Taxes

~~Deferred~~As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to estimate our federal income taxes as well as income taxes in each of the states in which we operate. This process involves us estimating our actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are ~~recognized~~included in our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent we believe that recovery is not probable, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this allowance in a period, we must include an expense in the tax provision in the statement of operations.

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for ~~the future~~income taxes, our deferred tax ~~consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of~~ assets and liabilities and ~~their respective~~any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax ~~bases,~~assets. We currently have no valuation allowance and ~~operating losses and~~fully expect to utilize all of our deferred tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.assets.

ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In order to record any financial statement benefit, we are required to determine, based on technical merits of the position, whether it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. If that step is satisfied, then we must measure the tax position to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of the benefit that ishas a greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ~~We have no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2018.~~

Our policy regarding income tax interest and penalties is to expense those items as other expense.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”), which makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code. Certain income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act are reflected in the Company’s financial results in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides SEC staff guidance regarding the application of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). As we do not have all of the necessary information to analyze all income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act, we will continue to evaluate tax reform and adjust the provisional amounts as additional information is obtained. We expect to complete our detailed analysis no later thanDuring the fourth quarter of ~~2018.~~

~~Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~On February 25,~~2018, the Company discovered a potential uncertain tax position attributable to the deductibility of certain executive compensation expense for federal income tax purposes aggregating approximately $168,000, $149,000 and $230,000 for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As a result, in accordance with ASC Topic 740, during the ~~Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under~~fourth quarter of 2018, the ~~new guidance,~~Company recorded a ~~lessee will be required~~tax adjustment of $547,000 and accrued penalty and interest expense of $55,000 attributable to recognize assets and liabilities for finance and operating leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Additionally, this ASU will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements. The ASU initially required a modified retrospective transition method where a company applies the new leases standard at the beginninguncertain tax position. Management of the ~~earliest period presented in~~Company determined that the ~~financial statements, but in July 2018~~effect of the ~~FASB issued ASU 2018-11.

For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.2016 was not material. The ~~new standard will be effective during our first quarter ending March 31, 2019. We are~~Company plans on amending its previously filed federal income tax returns and is in the process of reviewing our leases and evaluating what impact the new standard will have on our accounting policies, internal controls and condensed consolidated balance sheet.

We also expect an increase in our disclosures revolving around leases. We anticipate our review to be completed in the latter half of 2018.reduce uncertain tax position reserve.

Restricted Shares/Units:

In accordance with the Company's employment agreement with Stephen Taylor, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee reviewed his performance in determining the issuance of restricted common stock. Based on this review which included consideration of the Company's ~~2017~~2018 performance, Mr. Taylor, was awarded ~~84,700~~131,674 restricted shares/units on March ~~15, 2018,~~29, 2019, which vest over three years, in equal annual installments, beginning March ~~15, 2019.~~29, 2020. On March ~~15, 2018,~~29, 2019, the Compensation Committee awarded 20,000 restricted shares/units to each of G. Larry Lawrence, our CFO, and James Hazlett, our Vice President of Technical Services. The restricted shares to Messrs. Lawrence and Hazlett vest over three years, in equal annual installments, beginning March ~~15,~~29, 2020. The restricted common stock awarded to Messrs. Taylor, Lawrence and Hazlett are contingent of the Company's shareholders approval and adoption of the Natural Gas Services Group, Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan at the Annual Shareholder meeting on June 20, 2019.We also awarded and issued ~~16,288~~23,136 shares of restricted common stock to the independent members of our Board of Directors as partial payment for ~~2018~~2019 services as directors. The restricted stock issued to our directors vests over one year, in quarterly installments, beginning March 31, ~~2019.~~2020. Total compensation expense related to restricted awards was ~~$978,432~~$463,466 and ~~$2,209,455~~$361,630 for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019 and 2018, ~~and 2017,~~ respectively.

(3) Inventory

Our inventory, net of allowance for obsolescence of ~~$20,785 and $15,000~~$19,000 at ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively, consisted of the following amounts:

Our long-term inventory consists of raw materials that remain viable but that the Company does not expect to sell or use within the year.

During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019 and 2018, ~~and 2017,~~ there were no write-offs of obsolete inventory against the allowance for obsolescence.

(4) Deferred Compensation Plans

The Company has a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for executive officers, directors and certain eligible employees. The assets of the deferred compensation plan are held in a rabbi trust and are subject to additional risk of loss in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. The plan allows for deferral of up to 90% of a participant’s base salary, bonus, commissions, director fees and restricted stock unit awards. A Company owned life insurance policy held in a rabbi trust is utilized as a source of funding for the plan. The cash surrender value of the life insurance policy is ~~$1.0~~$1.2 million and ~~$754,000~~$966,000 as of ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019 and 2018, ~~and 2017,~~ respectively. For the ~~six~~three months ending ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, we reported in other income (expense) ~~income~~ in the consolidated income statement a ~~loss~~gain related to the policy of approximately ~~$55,000~~$99,000 and for the same period in ~~2017,~~2018, a ~~gain~~loss of approximately ~~$17,000.~~$67,000.

For deferrals of base salary, bonus, commissions and director fees, settlement payments are made to participants in cash, either in a lump sum or in periodic installments. The obligation to pay the deferred compensation and the deferred director fees is adjusted to reflect the positive or negative performance of investment measurement options selected by each participant and was ~~$1.1~~$1.2 million and ~~$713,000~~$992,000 as of ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019 and 2018, ~~and 2017,~~ respectively. The deferred obligation is included in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

For deferrals of restricted stock units, the plan does not allow for diversification, therefore, distributions are paid in shares of common stock and the obligation is carried at grant value. As of ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019 and 2018, ~~103,691~~respectively, 63,062 and 104,590 unvested restricted stock

units have been deferred of which ~~32,936~~78,771 and 32,037 units have been released and issued to the deferred compensation plan with a value of ~~$837,589.~~$1.7 million and $816,373, respectively.

(5) Credit Facility

We have a senior secured revolving credit agreement the ("Amended Credit Agreement") with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A (the "Lender") with an aggregate commitment of $30 million, subject to collateral availability. We also have a right to request from the Lender, on an uncommitted basis, an increase of up to $20 million on the aggregate commitment (which could potentially increase the commitment amount to $50 million). On August 31, 2017, we amended and renewed the Amended Credit Agreement, ~~which was set to expire on December 31, 2017. The Credit Agreement Amendment extended~~extending the maturity date to December 31, 2020. No other material revisions were made to the credit facility.

Borrowing Base. At any time before the maturity of the Amended Credit Agreement, we may draw, repay and re-borrow amounts available under the borrowing base up to the maximum aggregate availability discussed above. Generally, the borrowing base equals the sum of (a) 80% of our eligible accounts receivable plus (b) 50% of the book value of our eligible general inventory (not to exceed 50% of the commitment amount at the time) plus (c) 75% of the book value of our eligible equipment inventory. The Lender may adjust the borrowing base components if material deviations in the collateral are discovered in future audits of the collateral. We had $29.5 million borrowing base availability at ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 under the terms of our Amended Credit Agreement.

Interest and Fees. Under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, we have the option of selecting the applicable variable rate for each revolving loan, or portion thereof, of either (a) LIBOR multiplied by the Statutory Reserve Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement), with respect to this rate, for Eurocurrency funding, plus the Applicable Margin (“LIBOR-based”), or (b) CB Floating Rate, which is the Lender's Prime Rate less the Applicable Margin; provided, however, that no more than three LIBOR-based borrowings under the agreement may be outstanding at any one time. For purposes of the LIBOR-based interest rate, the Applicable Margin is 1.50%. For purposes of the CB Floating Rate, the Applicable Margin is 1.50%. For the ~~six~~three month period ended ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, our weighted average interest rate was ~~3.37%~~3.75%.

Accrued interest is payable monthly on outstanding principal amounts, provided that accrued interest on LIBOR-based loans is payable at the end of each interest period, but in no event less frequently than quarterly. In addition, fees and expenses are payable in connection with our requests for letters of credit (generally equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR-related borrowings multiplied by the face amount of the requested letter of credit) and administrative and legal costs.

Maturity. The maturity date of the Amended Credit Agreement is December 31, 2020, at which time all amounts borrowed under the agreement will be due and outstanding letters of credit must be cash collateralized. The agreement may be terminated early upon our request or the occurrence of an event of default.

Security. The obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on all of our inventory and accounts and leases receivables, along with a first priority lien on a variable number of our leased compressor equipment the book value of which must be maintained at a minimum of 2.00 to 1.00 commitment coverage ratio (such ratio being equal to (i) the amount of the borrowing base as of such date to (ii) the amount of the commitment as of such ~~date.)~~date).

Covenants. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, as well as covenants which, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; make acquisitions in excess of certain amounts; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock or senior notes; make investments or loans; make negative pledges; consolidate, merge or effect asset sales; or change the nature of our business. In addition, we also have certain financial covenants that require us to maintain on a consolidated basis a leverage ratio less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

Events of Default and Acceleration. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary events of default for credit facilities of this size and type, and includes, without limitation, payment defaults; defaults in performance of covenants or other agreements contained in the loan documents; inaccuracies in representations and warranties; certain defaults, termination events or similar events; certain defaults with respect to any other Company indebtedness in excess of $50,000; certain bankruptcy or insolvency events; the rendering of certain judgments in excess of $150,000; certain ERISA events; certain change in control events and the defectiveness of any liens under the secured revolving credit facility. Obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.

As of ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants in our Amended Credit Agreement. A default under our Credit Agreement could trigger the acceleration of our bank debt so that it is immediately due and payable. Such default would likely limit our ability to access other credit. At ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 and December 31, ~~2017~~2018, our outstanding balance on the line of credit was $417,000.

(6) Leases

The Company adopted the new lease standard on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method. Prior periods were not retrospectively adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new lease standard, which among other things, allowed the company to continue to account for existing leases based on the historical lease classification. The Company also elected the practical expedients to exclude right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the balance sheet, and to combine lease and non-lease components for property leases, which primarily relate to ancillary expenses such as common area maintenance charges and management fees.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception by assessing whether it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company’s leases are primarily related to property leases for its field offices. The Company's leases have remaining lease terms of one to 10 years. Renewal and termination options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option.

The Company's lease agreements do not contain any contingent rental payments, material residual guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As substantially all of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Based on the present value of lease payments for the Company's existing leases, the Company recorded net lease assets and lease liabilities of approximately $451,000, respectively, upon adoption. The Company had no finance leases. The new lease standard did not materially impact the Company's consolidated statements of operations and had no impact on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

The impact of the new lease standard on the March 31, 2019 consolidated balance sheet was as follows:


	Classification on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet	March 31, 2019

~~(7)~~(8) Segment Information

ASC 280-10-50, “Operating Segments", defines the characteristics of an operating segment as: a) being engaged in business activity from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses, b) being reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker (CODM) for decisions about resources to be allocated and assess its performance and c) having discrete financial information. Although we look at our products to analyze the nature of our revenue, other financial information, such as certain costs and expenses, net income and EBITDA are not captured or analyzed by these categories. Our CODM does not

make resource allocation decisions or access the performance of the business based on these categories, but rather in the aggregate. Based on this, management believes that it operates in one business segment.

In their analysis of product lines as potential operating segments, management also considered ASC 280-10-50-11, “Aggregation Criteria”, which allows for the aggregation of operating segments if the segments have similar economic characteristics and if the segments are similar in each of the following areas:

•The nature of the products and services;

•The nature of the production processes;

•

• The type or class of customer for their products and services;

•The methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and

•The nature of the regulatory environment, if applicable.

We are engaged in the business of designing and manufacturing compressors and flares. Our compressors and flares are sold and rented to our customers. In addition, we provide service and maintenance on compressors in our fleet and to third parties. These business activities are similar in all geographic areas. Our manufacturing process is essentially the same for the entire Company and is performed in-house at our facilities in Midland, Texas and Tulsa, Oklahoma. Our customers primarily consist of entities in the business of producing natural gas and crude oil. The maintenance and service of our products is consistent across the entire Company and is performed via an internal fleet of vehicles. The regulatory environment is similar in every jurisdiction in that the most impacting regulations and practices are the result of federal energy policy. In addition, the economic characteristics of each customer arrangement are similar in that we maintain policies at the corporate level.

~~(8)~~(9) Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are a party to various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business. While management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, it believes that any ultimate liability arising from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flow. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, and we are not aware of any threatened material litigation.

The Company also has a remaining contractual obligation related to the construction of a new corporate office of approximately ~~$8.9~~$3.7 million, to be financed by cash on hand. Construction of a new office began in late 2017 and is expected to be completed in ~~early 2019.~~mid-2019.

(10) Related Party

In 2016, we entered into a joint venture partnership, N-G, LLC (‘N-G”), with Genis Holdings, LLC (“Genis”) to explore new technologies for wellhead compression. NGS and Genis both share 50% ownership of N-G. In 2018, we ordered some compressor packages from Genis, totaling $1.0 million. The compressors were completed by March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2019, we have paid the units in full which has been reclassified from prepaids and is included in rental equipment on the consolidated balance sheet.

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

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on, and should be read in conjunction with, our condensed, consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 filed with the SEC.

Overview

We fabricate, manufacture, rent, and sell natural gas compressors and related equipment. Our primary focus is on the rental of natural gas compressors. Our rental contracts generally provide for initial terms of six to 24 months. After the initial term of our rental contracts, many of our customers have continued to rent our compressors on a month-to-month basis. Rental amounts are billed monthly in advance and include maintenance of the rented compressors. As of ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, we had ~~1,247~~1,364 natural gas compressors totaling ~~194,948~~238,566 horsepower rented to 8897 customers compared to ~~1,248~~1,213 natural gas compressors totaling ~~179,366~~183,927 horsepower rented to 7684 customers at ~~June 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018.

We also fabricate natural gas compressors for sale to our customers, designing compressors to meet unique specifications dictated by well pressures, production characteristics, and particular applications for which compression is sought. Fabrication of compressors involves our purchase of engines, compressors, coolers, and other components, and our assembling of these components on skids for delivery to customer locations. The major components of our compressors packages are acquired through periodic purchase orders placed with third-party suppliers on an “as needed” basis, which presently require lead times between three to six months with delivery dates scheduled to coincide with our estimated production schedules. Although we do not have formal continuing supply contracts with any major supplier, we believe we have adequate alternative sources available. In the past, we have not experienced any sudden and dramatic increases in the prices of the major components for our compressors. However, the occurrence of such an event could have a material adverse effect on the results of our operations and financial condition, particularly if we were unable to increase our rental rates and sales prices proportionate to any such component price increases.

We also manufacture a proprietary line of compressor frames, cylinders and parts, known as our CiP (Cylinder-in-Plane) product line. We use finished CiP component products in the fabrication of compressor units for sale or rental by us or sell the finished component products to other compressor fabricators. We also design, fabricate, sell, install, and service flare stacks and related ignition and control devices for onshore and offshore incineration of gas compounds such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, natural gas and liquefied petroleum gases. To provide customer support for our compressor and flare sales businesses, we stock varying levels of replacement parts at our Midland, Texas facility and at field service locations. We also provide an exchange and rebuild program for screw compressors and maintain an inventory of new and used compressors to facilitate this business.

We provide service and maintenance to our customers under written maintenance contracts or on an as-required basis in the absence of a service contract. Formal maintenance agreements typically have terms of six months to one year and require payment of a monthly fee.

The oil and natural gas equipment rental and services industry is cyclical in nature. The most critical factor in assessing the outlook for the industry is the worldwide supply and demand for natural gas and crude oil and the corresponding changes in commodity prices. As demand and prices increase, oil and natural gas producers increase their capital expenditures for drilling,

development and production activities. Generally, the increased capital expenditures ultimately result in greater revenues and profits for services and equipment companies.

In general, we expect our overall business activity and revenues to track the level of activity in the oil and natural gas industry, with changes in domestic natural gas production and consumption levels and prices affecting our business marginally more than changes in crude oil and condensate production and consumption levels and prices. However, in recent years we have increased our rental and sales in the non-conventional oil shale plays which are more dependent on crude oil prices. With this shift towards oil-associated gas production the demand for overall compression services and products is driven by two general factors; declining reservoir pressure in maturing natural gas producing fields, especially non-conventional production, and an increased focus by producers on artificial lift applications; e.g., production enhancement with compression assisted gas lift. These type of applications have historically been serviced by wellhead size compressors, and continue to be, but there has also been an economic move by our customers towards centralized drilling and production facilities which have increased the market need for larger horsepower compressor packages. We recognized this need over the past two to three years and have been shifting our cash and fabrication resources towards designing, fabricating and renting gas compressor packages that range

from 400 horsepower up to ~~1380~~1,380 horsepower. While this is a response to market conditions and trends, it also provides us with the opportunity to compete as a full-line compression provider.

We typically experience a decline in demand during periods of low crude oil and natural gas prices. Low crude oil and natural gas prices experienced throughout 2016 continued into mid-2017. In the latter half of 2017, we began to see an increase in oil prices and activity that ~~has~~ continued into 2018. We anticipate a continuation of these increased prices and activity in E&P companies ~~for the remainder of 2018.~~throughout 2019. While the continuation of this increased activity is uncertain and variable period to period, we believe the long-tem trend in our market is favorable.

Total revenue increased to ~~$18.2~~$18.0 million from ~~$16.2~~$14.7 million, or ~~12%~~22%, for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, compared to the same period ended ~~June 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018. The increase is mainly a result of ~~the fluctuation~~an increase in ~~sales~~rental revenue due to ~~the timing~~a greater number of ~~industry activity.~~units and higher horsepower with higher rates being rented.

Rental revenue ~~held steady at $11.4~~increased to $13.4 million from $11.5 million for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2018 and 2017.~~March 31, 2019, compared to the same period ended March 31, 2018. We ended the quarter with ~~2,557~~2,567 compressor packages in our fleet, up from ~~2,531~~2,552 units at ~~June 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018. The rental fleet had a ~~utilization of 48.8% as of June 30, 2018 compared to 49.3%~~unit utilization as of ~~June 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively of 53.1% and 47.5% while our horsepower utilization for the same periods, respectively was 58.6% and 48.6%. The ~~drop~~rise in utilization is mainly the result of ~~compressor rental units being returned due to customers shifting operations to more profitable basins. We have experienced some relief~~the rise in ~~the number of sets versus returns in recent months.~~demand for our higher horsepower units. In the event that oil and natural gas prices remain steady or ~~continued~~continue to increase, we expect to see ana continued increase in the utilization of our fleet.

Sales revenue increased to ~~$6.4~~$4.1 million from ~~$4.4~~$3.0 million for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 compared to the same period ended ~~June 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018. This increase is the result of fluctuations in timing of industry activity related to capital projects. We believe this timing is reflective of the typical sales cycle, resulting in fluctuating compressor unit sales to third parties from our Tulsa and Midland operations. ~~We also had an increase in our flares product line during this comparative period, due to customer demand.~~

Our overall operating income decreased to ~~$226,000~~$209,000 compared to ~~$414,000~~$350,000 for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, ~~and June 30, 2017, respectively. Operating margin percentage also dropped to 1% from 3% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017,~~ respectively. The lower operating ~~margin~~income was largely due ~~a mix shift in revenues from higher margin rentals~~ to lower ~~margin sales.~~gross margins, higher selling, general and administrative and depreciation expenses.

Selling, general, and administrative expense ~~decreased slightly~~increased to ~~$2.3~~$2.5 million from ~~$2.4~~$2.0 million for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2019, and March 31, 2018, respectively. The increase in selling, general and ~~June 30, 2017.~~administrative expenses is due to the timing of stock transactions and an increase in salary and payroll related items.

Depreciation and amortization expense ~~was relatively flat at $5.4~~increased slightly to $5.6 million for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2018, compared to $5.3~~March 31, 2019, from $5.4 million for the period ended ~~June 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2018. This ~~slight~~ increase is the result of larger horsepower units being added to the fleet. We added 31 units (approximately ~~21,000~~30,000 horsepower) to our fleet over the past 12 months. ~~Twenty-two~~Twenty-six of these were 400 horsepower or larger; representing ~~97%~~99% of the horsepower added.

~~Provision for~~We had an income tax ~~was $54,000 and $40,000~~expense of $153,000 resulting in a effective tax rate of 30.0% for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.~~March 31, 2019 as compared to $49,000 resulting in a effective tax rate of 17.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in the provision is due to ~~a change~~an increase in ~~effective tax rate between the two periods.~~pretax income.

~~Six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017.~~

~~The table below shows our revenues and percentage of total revenues of each of our product lines for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.~~

Revenue Six months ended June 30,

2018 2017
Rental $ 22,898 70 % $ 23,342 67 %
Sales 9,381 28 % 11,044 31 %
Service and Maintenance 643 2 % 734 2 %
Total $ 32,922 $ 35,120

Total revenue decreased to $32.9 million from $35.1 million, or 6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period ended June 30, 2017. The decrease is mainly a result of the fluctuation in sales due to the timing of industry activity.

Rental revenue decreased slightly to $22.9 million from $23.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period ended June 30, 2017. This decrease is the result of the relative price of units returned to the units going into service. We ended the quarter with 2,557 compressor packages in our rental fleet up from 2,531 units at June 30, 2017. The rental fleet had a utilization of 48.8%, as of June 30, 2018 compared to 49.3% utilization as of June 30, 2017. The drop in utilization is mainly the result of compressor rental units being returned due to customers shifting operations to more profitable basins. We have experienced some relief in the number of sets versus returns in recent months. In the event that oil and natural gas prices increase, we should see incremental utilization of our fleet.

Sales revenue decreased to $9.4 million from $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period ended June 30, 2017. This decrease is the result of the fluctuations in timing of industry activity related to capital projects. We believe this timing is reflective of the typical sales cycle, resulting in fluctuating compressor unit sales to third parties from our Tulsa and Midland operations. There was an offsetting increase in demand for flares during this comparative period, due to customer demand.

Our overall operating income decreased to $576,000 from $757,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively. Operating margin percentage decrease to 2% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017. The low operating margin was due to the decrease in revenue discussed above.

Selling, general, and administrative expense decreased to $4.3 million from $5.4 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to a $1.1 million decrease in stock compensation expense.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $10.6 million for the period ended June 30, 2017. This slight increase is the result of larger horsepower units being added to the fleet. We added 31 units (approximately 21,000 horsepower) to our fleet over the past 12 months. Twenty-two of these were 400 horsepower or larger; representing 97% of the horsepower added.

~~Provision for income tax decreased to $103,000 from $132,000 and is the result of the decrease in taxable income.~~

Even though we have idle rental equipment, at times we do not have the specific type of equipment that our customers require, therefore we have to build new equipment to satisfy their needs. We financed this activity with cash flow from operations and cash on hand.

At ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$62.5~~$40.0 million compared to ~~$69.2~~$52.6 million at December 31, ~~2017. Our~~2018. We had negative cash flow from operations of ~~$10.9~~$3.8 million ~~was offset by~~and capital expenditures of ~~$16.9~~$9.1 million, during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2018.~~March 31, 2019. We had working capital of ~~$95.4~~$82.5 million at ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 compared to ~~$100.8~~$85.5 million at December 31, ~~2017.~~2018. On ~~June 30, 2018~~March 31, 2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, we had outstanding debt of $417,000, which is all related to our line of credit. We had ~~positive~~negative net cash flow from operating activities of ~~$10.9~~$3.8 million during the first ~~six~~three months of ~~2018~~2019 compared positive net cash flow of to ~~$11.1~~$5.1 million for the first ~~six~~three months of ~~2017.~~2018. The negative cash flow from operations of ~~$10.9~~$3.8 million was primarily the result of the net income of ~~$472,000~~$357,000 and the non-cash items of depreciation of ~~$10.8~~$5.6 million, ~~$1.1 million~~$495,000 related to the

expenses associated with stock-based compensation, and a decrease in cash flows related to working capital and other of ~~$1.5~~$10.3 million.

Strategy

For the remainder of the fiscal year ~~2018,~~2019, our overall plan is to continue monitoring and holding expenses in line with the anticipated level of activity, fabricate rental fleet equipment only in direct response to market requirements, emphasize marketing of our idle gas compressor units and limit bank borrowing in line with market conditions. For the remainder of ~~2018,~~

2019, our forecasted capital expenditures with respect to compression equipment will be directly dependent upon our customers’ compression requirements and are not anticipated to exceed our internally generated cash flows and cash on hand. Any required capital will be for additions to our compressor rental fleet and/or addition or replacement of service vehicles. We believe that cash flows from operations, our current cash position and our line of credit will be sufficient to satisfy our capital and liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. We may require additional capital to fund any unanticipated expenditures, including any acquisitions of other businesses, although that capital, beyond our line of credit, as discussed below may not be available to us when we need it or on acceptable terms.

Bank Borrowings

We have a senior secured revolving credit agreement the ("Amended Credit Agreement") with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the "Lender") with an aggregate commitment of $30 million, subject to collateral availability. We also have a right to request from the lender, on an uncommitted basis, an increase of up to $20 million on the aggregate commitment (which could potentially increase the commitment amount to $50 million). On August 31, 2017, we amended and renewed the Amended Credit Agreement, ~~which was set to expire on December 31, 2017. The Credit Agreement Amendment extended~~extending the maturity date to December 31, 2020. No other material revisions were made to the credit facility.

~~Borrowing Base~~. At any time before the maturity of the Amended Credit Agreement, we may draw, repay and re-borrow amounts available under the borrowing base up to the maximum aggregate availability discussed above. Generally, the borrowing base equals the sum of (a) 80% of our eligible accounts receivable plus (b) 50% of the book value of our eligible general inventory (not to exceed 50% of the commitment amount at the time) plus (c) 75% of the book value of our eligible equipment inventory. The Lender may adjust the borrowing base components if material deviations in the collateral are discovered in future audits of the collateral. We had $29.5 million borrowing base availability at ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019 under the terms of our Amended Credit ~~Agreement.~~

~~Interest~~Agreement, and ~~Fees~~. Under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, we have the option of selecting the applicable variable rate for each revolving loan, or portion thereof, of either (a) LIBOR multiplied by the Statutory Reserve Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement), with respect to this rate, for Eurocurrency funding, plus the Applicable Margin (“LIBOR-based”), or (b) CB Floating Rate, which is the Lender's Prime Rate less the Applicable Margin; provided, however, that no more than three LIBOR-based borrowings under the agreement may be outstanding at any one time. For purposes of the LIBOR-based interest rate, the Applicable Margin is 1.50%. For purposes of the CB Floating Rate, the Applicable Margin is 1.50%. For the six month period ended June 30, 2018, our weighted average interest rate was 3.37%.

~~Maturity~~. The maturity date of the Amended Credit Agreement is December 31, 2020, at which time all amounts borrowed under the agreement will be due and outstanding letters of credit must be cash collateralized. The agreement may be terminated early upon our request or the occurrence of an event of default.

~~Security~~. The obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on all of our inventory and accounts and leases receivables, along with a first priority lien on a variable number of our leased compressor equipment the book value of must be maintained at a minimum of 2.00 to 1.00 commitment coverage ratio (such ratio being equal to (i) the amount of the borrowing base as of such date to (ii) the amount of the commitment as of such date.)

~~Covenants.~~ The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, as well as covenants which, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; make acquisitions in excess of certain amounts; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock or senior notes; make investments

or loans; make negative pledges; consolidate, merge or effect asset sales; or change the nature of our business. In addition, we also have certain financial covenants that require us to maintain on a consolidated basis a leverage ratio less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

~~Events of Default and Acceleration.~~ The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary events of default for credit facilities of this size and type, and includes, without limitation, payment defaults; defaults in performance of covenants or other agreements contained in the loan documents; inaccuracies in representations and warranties; certain defaults, termination events or similar events; certain defaults with respect to any other Company indebtedness in excess of $50,000; certain bankruptcy or insolvency events; the rendering of certain judgments in excess of $150,000; certain ERISA events; certain change in control events and the defectiveness of any liens under the secured revolving credit facility. Obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.

As of June 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all covenants in our Amended Credit Agreement. A default under our Credit Agreement could trigger the acceleration of our bank debt so that it is immediately due and payable. Such default would likely limit our ability to access other credit. At June 30, 2018, our balance on the line of credit was $417,000. For further information, see Footnote 5 "Credit Facility" on page 10.

Critical Accounting Policies and Practices

There have been no changes in the critical accounting policies disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

~~On February 25, 2016, the Financial~~For further information, see Footnote 1 "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for finance and operating leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Additionally, this ASU will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements. The ASU initially required a modified retrospective transition method where a company applies the new leases standard at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements, but in July 2018 the FASB issued ASU 2018-11. ASU 2018-11 added an optional transition method where a company applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The new standard will be effective during our first quarter ending March 31, 2019. We are in the process of reviewing our leases and evaluating what impact the new standard will havePolices" on our accounting policies, internal controls and condensed consolidated balance sheet. We expect there will be an increase in assets and liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at adoption due to recording the right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities, but do not believe this to be a significant impact at this time. We also expect an increase in our disclosures revolving around leases. We anticipate our review to be completed in the latter half of 2018page 5.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

From time-to-time, we enter into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that can give rise to off-balance sheet obligations. As of ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, the off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that we have entered into include operating lease agreements and purchase agreements. We do not believe that these arrangements are reasonably likely to materially affect our liquidity, availability of, or requirements for, capital resources.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Except for historical information contained herein, the statements in this report are forward-looking and made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results. Those risks include, among other things, the loss of market share through competition or otherwise; the introduction of competing technologies by other companies; a prolonged, substantial reduction in oil and natural gas prices which could cause a decline in the demand for our products and services; and new governmental safety, health and environmental regulations which could require us to make significant capital expenditures. The forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q are only made as of the date of this report, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. A discussion of these and other risk factors is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 filed with the SEC.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no changes in the market risks disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or, the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President and Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that, ~~our disclosure controls and procedures~~ as of the end of the period covered by this report, ~~were~~adjustments must be made to the design of our controls in order to maintain an effective ~~to ensure~~control environment with formal accounting policies and controls. The evaluation is a continuation of a review process that ~~information required to be disclosed by us~~started in the ~~reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified~~fourth quarter of 2018 when we determined that there was a material weakness in ~~the SEC’s rules and forms. These include~~our internal controls ~~and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated~~over financial reporting related to our ~~management, including our principal executive and financial officers as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Due to~~review of the ~~inherent limitations~~tax provision. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control ~~systems,~~deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not ~~all misstatements~~be prevented or omissions may be detected. Those inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls could be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons or by collusion of two or more people. Our controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.detected on a timely basis.

~~Changes~~Material Weaknesses in Internal ~~Controls.~~

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers using the modified retrospective method of transition applied to all contracts. This ASU formed ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP and includes a five step process to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services.Control over Financial Reporting.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, we identified a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting related to our accounting and reporting of income tax expense (benefit), the related balance sheet accounts and other comprehensive income. In detail, we did not design and maintain an effective control environment with formal accounting policies and controls to adequately provide sufficient information for the preparation of our tax provision to our third party tax professionals and did not provide an appropriate level or sufficient review of the tax provision. The material weakness created a reasonable possibility that there could be a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial.

This material weakness resulted in a material misstatement in the provision for income taxes in our combined consolidated financial statement as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015. The misstatements were not

material to any individual year. Consolidated financial statements included in Annual Report on Form 10-K issued as of December 31, 2018 reflect the correction of the material misstatement of income tax expense (benefit), the related balance sheet accounts and other comprehensive income.

We are undergoing ongoing evaluations, enhancements and implementation in our internal significant over financial reporting, regarding and to address the identified material weakness and significant deficiency. We have taken measures to improve our controls related to the material weakness and significant deficiency in the first quarter of ~~2018, we added internal control processes over financial reporting as a result~~2019, but have not completed our review. Our objective is to complete remediation of our material weakness and significant deficiency by the ~~adoption~~end of ~~ASC 606.~~ 2019.

There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended ~~June 30, 2018,~~March 31, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
