Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimates used to reviewrecord purchase price allocation for the Company’sCompany's acquisitions, fair value measurements used in goodwill impairments andimpairment tests, impairment estimations of long-lived assets, impairment of prepaid royalties, revenue recognition on percentage of completioncost-to-cost type contracts, allowances for uncollectible accounts, inventory valuation, warranty reserves, valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances, estimates of the incremental borrowing rate for long-term leases, fair value estimates and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

RevisionReclassifications

Immaterial revision wasCertain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated statement2021 classifications in order to conform to the 2022 presentation.

Company Conditions and Sources of Liquidity

The Company has experienced net losses, cash flows:outflows from cash used in operating activities and a decline in share value over the past years. As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, $122 thousand was reclassified2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $421.4 million, loss from effectcontinuing operations of exchange rate changes on$208.3 million, and net cash used in operating activities of $13.4 million. Further, as of September 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $118.7 million, including current maturities of debt, and cash and cash equivalents of $28.0 million available for working capital needs and planned capital asset expenditures.  As a result of the foregoing, the Company does not have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to non-cash unrealized foreign currency gains/losses includedmeet its obligations and fund its operations for the twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a reconciling item to cash provided by operating activities. This change was related primarily to foreign currency gains and losses on intercompany advances to Orbital-UK.going concern.

 

2. INVENTORIESThe Company has plans to access additional capital to meet its obligations for the twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. Historically, the Company has raised additional equity and debt financing to fund its expansion; refer to Note 16Notes Payable and Line of Credit. The Company has also funded some of its capital expenditures through long-term financing with lenders and other investors as also described in further detail in Note 16Notes Payable and Line of Credit. Our ability to raise the additional capital is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market demand for our common stock, which itself is subject to a number of business risks and uncertainties, our creditworthiness and the uncertainty that we would be able to raise such additional capital at a price that is favorable to us. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has an effective S-3 shelf registration statement for the issuance of various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants in the aggregate of up to $68.8 million. In addition, although no formal agreements exist, the company has solicited interest from various lenders to potentially raise additional term debt to restructure or refinance its existing notes.

 

Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-processThe Company plans to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months by raising additional capital through equity and finished goodsdebt financing sources and are stated atforecasted positive cash flows generated from operations. There can be no assurance that the lower of costCompany will succeed in executing these plans. If unsuccessful, the Company will not have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to repay its indebtedness when it matures, or market usingotherwise meet its cash requirements over the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or through the moving average cost method. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, accrued liabilities included $1.3 million and $1.1 million of accrued inventory payable, respectively. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, inventory by category is valued net of reserves and consists of:next twelve months, as noted above.

4. GOODWILL AND INDEFINITE-LIVED INTANGIBLES

 

The Company tests for impairment of other indefinite-lived intangible assets in the second quarter of each yearIndefinite-lived intangibles and when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the intangible assets exceed their fair value and may not be recoverable. The Company performed a qualitative assessment of impairment for other indefinite-lived intangible assets at May 31, 2017 following the guidance in ASC 350-30-35-18A and 18B and determined there to be no impairment. Other indefinite-lived intangibles were $7.3 million at September 30, 2017.

The Company also tests for impairment of Goodwill in the second quarter of each year and when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of Goodwill exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable. As detailed

Under current accounting guidance, Orbital Infrastructure Group is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The guidance includes a number of factors to consider in ASC 350-20-35-3A, in performing its testing for impairment of goodwill as of May 31, 2017, management completesconducting the qualitative assessment. 

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company completed a qualitativequantitative analysis to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of aits reporting unit isunits were less than itstheir carrying amount, including goodwill. Periodically, as was done at May 31, 2016, the Company also prepares a quantitative analysis in addition to the qualitative one. To complete the qualitative review, management follows the steps in ASC 350-20-35-3C to evaluateevaluated the fair valuesvalue of the goodwillGoodwill and considersconsidered all known events and circumstances that might trigger an impairment of goodwill. Through these reviews, management concludedThe review of goodwill, prepared as of May 31, 2022, determined that there were no events or circumstancesnot indicators present to suggest that triggered anit was more likely than not that the fair value of any of the Company's reporting units was less than its carrying amount and thus no impairment (and there was no expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit would be sold or otherwise disposed of innecessary during the following year)quarter ended June 30, 2022.

 

The carryingCompany did a second goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2022 due to a 42-percent drop in the Company's stock price between May 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, that caused an overall decrease in the Company’s market capitalization. We performed the interim impairment tests consistent with our approach for annual impairment testing, including similar models, inputs, and assumptions. As a result of the interim impairment testing, no impairment was identified as of June 30, 2022. 

During the third quarter of 2022, triggering events were identified which led to performing interim goodwill impairment testing of our reporting units as of September 30, 2022. These events included a further decrease in the Company's market capitalization, the significant loss in the Renewables segment in the third quarter of 2022, interest rate increases and limitations on accessing capital, which raised substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The fair value for our reporting units for the interim testing was valued using a market approach. The impairment assessment resulted in a conclusion that goodwill in the Electric Power and Telecommunications reporting units was impaired by $70.1 million and $25.8 million, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The impairment assessment also concluded that the fair value of goodwillthe Renewables reporting unit was in excess of its carrying amount.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic and current economic environment

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact certain aspects and geographies of the global economy due to supply chain, production and other logistical disruptions. While we have continued to operate as a provider of essential services from the onset of the pandemic, during the course of the pandemic our operations and financial results have been adversely impacted by governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, including shut-down orders and limitations on work site practices implemented by governments. The longer-term implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial performance remain uncertain and variable in the current economic environment including rising interest and inflation rates. 

We continue to monitor governmental vaccination and testing standards or requirements related to COVID-19, as well as certain standards and guidance for preventing the spread of COVID-19. While the impact of these standards has lessened in 2022, we continue to monitor changes in these standards that may impact our business.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND SALE OF A BUSINESS

As part of the Company’s stated strategy to transform Orbital Infrastructure Group into a diversified energy infrastructure services platform serving North American energy customers, the Company’s board of directors made the decision to divest of its Orbital Gas subsidiaries. The Orbital Gas subsidiaries provide proprietary gas measurement and sampling technologies and the activityintegration of process control and measuring/sampling systems. They are legacy businesses that are not part of the Company’s strategy of building an infrastructure services company serving the electric power, telecommunications and renewable markets. The disposition of the Orbital Gas subsidiaries will facilitate the Company’s restructuring and cost savings initiatives and are intended to realign and simplify its business structure and better position the Company for future growth and improved profitability. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a $9.2 million impairment related to its U.K. operations to write the value of its investment in the U.K. operations to its expected realizable value of 3 million GBP ($4.1 million on December 31, 2021).

The sale of the U.K. operations closed in May of 2022. The Company could receive additional consideration if certain events transpire during the 12-month restricted period following the settlement date. In addition, the Company will receive a “royalty” of 15% on any sales of the GasPT device related to Snam Rete Gas and/or the Future Billing Methodology (FBM) Project. The Company sold a portion of the North America business in the third quarter of 2022 at approximately book value of the assets sold. Certain assets and liabilities not sold with the business were reclassified from held for sale to held and used. Remaining assets held for sale at September 30,2022 include the VE Technology asset of the Company's North America Orbital Gas subsidiary. VE Technology is a gas sampling intellectual property, which provides a superior method of penetrating the gas flow without the associated vortex vibration, thereby making it a ‘‘stand-alone’’ product for thermal sensing (thermowells) and trace-element sampling.

Assets and liabilities held for sale that are included on the Company's balance sheet, relate to the company's discontinued businesses, and are described below.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS 

The Electric Power segment provides full service building, maintenance and support to the electrical power distribution, transmission, substation, and emergency response sectors of North America through Front Line Power, Orbital Power Services and  Eclipse Foundation. The Telecommunications segment composed of Gibson Technical Services and subsidiaries provides technical implementation, design, maintenance, emergency and repair support services in the broadband, wireless, and outside plant and building technologies.  The Renewables segment, Orbital Solar Services, provides engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services that support the development of renewable energy generation focused on utility scale solar and community solar construction.

For our construction contracts, revenue is generally recognized over time. Our fixed price and unit-price construction projects generally use a cost-to-cost input method or an output method to measure our progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as we believe it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Revenue is also generally recognized over time as the entity’s performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Under the output method, the measure of progress towards completion is based on units of work completed multiplied by the contractual pricing amounts per unit.  Under the output method, revenue is determined by actual work achieved. For jobs under the output method, revenue is earned based on each unit in the contract completed. We construct comprehensive revenue calculations based on quantifiable measures of actual units completed multiplied by the agreed upon contract prices per item completed. 

For our engineering and network design contracts, revenue is also generally recognized over time. In these jobs, timing of revenue recognition also depends on the payment terms of the contract, as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to us. For those contracts where the Company's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced or for which we have a right to payment for performance completed to date at all times throughout our performance, inclusive of a cancellation, we recognize revenue over time. As discussed above, these performance obligations use a cost-to-cost input method or output method to measure our progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as we believe it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. However, for those contracts for which we do not have a right, at all times, to payment for performance completed to date and we are not enhancing a customer-controlled asset, we recognize revenue at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer. 

For our service contracts, revenue is also generally recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our performance as we perform the service. For our fixed price service contracts with specified service periods, revenue is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over such service period when our inputs are expended evenly, and the customer receives and consumes the benefits of our performance throughout the contract term.

For certain of our revenue streams, such as call-out repair and service work, and outage services, that are performed under time and materials contracts, our progress towards complete satisfaction of such performance obligations is measured using an input method as the customer receives and consumes the benefits of our performance completed to date.

Due to uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, it is possible that estimates of costs to complete a performance obligation will be revised in the near-term. For those performance obligations for which revenue is recognized using a cost-to-cost input method, changes in total estimated costs, and related progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation, are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions to the estimates are made. When the current estimate of total costs for a performance obligation indicates a loss, a provision for the entire estimated loss on the unsatisfied performance obligation is made in the period in which the loss becomes evident.

13

Accounts Receivable, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Accounts receivable are recognized in the period when our right to consideration is unconditional. We also assess our customer's ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including our historical payment experience with and the financial condition of our customers.

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, and are within industry standards across our business lines. Accounts receivable are recognized net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contract assets include unbilled amounts from our construction projects when revenue recognized under the output method or input cost-to-cost method exceeds the amounts invoiced to our customers, as the amounts cannot be billed under the terms of our contracts. Such amounts are recoverable from our customers based upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units or completion of a contract. Also included in contract assets are retainage receivables and amounts we seek or will seek to collect from customers or others for errors or changes in contract specifications or design, contract change orders or modifications in dispute or unapproved as to both scope and/or price or other customer-related causes of unanticipated additional contract costs (claims and unapproved change orders). Our contract assets do not include capitalized costs to obtain and fulfill a contract. Contract assets are generally classified as current within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Contract liabilities from our construction contracts occur when amounts invoiced to our customers exceed revenues recognized under the cost-to-cost or output method measure of progress. Contract liabilities additionally include advanced payments from our customers on certain contracts and provision for future contract losses for those contracts estimated to close in a gross loss position. Contract liabilities decrease as we recognize revenue from the satisfaction of the related performance obligation and are recorded as either current or long-term, depending upon when we expect to recognize such revenue.

Balances and activity in the current contract liabilities as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was as follows:

Performance Obligations

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price of contracts with customers for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts. As of September 30,2022, the Company's remaining performance obligations are generally expected to be filled within the next 12 months. For the contracts that are greater than 12 months the Company has approximately $198.1 million in the aggregate of future revenue related to remaining performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as of September 30, 2022. 

Any adjustments to net revenues, cost of revenues, and the related impact to operating income are recognized as necessary in the period they become known. These adjustments may result from positive program performance and may result in an increase in operating income during the performance of individual performance obligations, if we determine we will be successful in mitigating risks surrounding the technical, schedule and cost aspects of those performance obligations. Likewise, these adjustments may result in a decrease in operating income if we determine we will not be successful in mitigating these risks. Changes in estimates of net revenues, cost of revenues and the related impact to operating income are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period they become known, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a performance obligation's percentage of completion. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our performance obligations. 

Performance Obligations Satisfied Over Time

To determine the proper revenue recognition method for our contracts, we evaluate whether a single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and the decision to separate the single contract into multiple performance obligations could change the amount of revenue and profit recorded in a given period.

For most of our contracts, the customer contracts with us to provide a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project or capability (even if that single project results in the delivery of multiple units). Hence, the entire contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. Less commonly, however, we may promise to provide distinct goods or services within a contract in which case we separate the contract into more than one performance obligation. If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, we allocate the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation. We infrequently sell standard products with observable standalone sales. In cases where we do, the observable standalone sales are used to determine the standalone selling price. More frequently, we sell a customized customer specific solution, and in these cases, we typically use the output method or the expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

Variable Consideration

The nature of our contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration. In rare instances, we include in our contract estimates, additional revenue for submitted contract modifications or claims against the customer when we believe we have an enforceable right to the modification or claim, the amount can be estimated reliably, and its realization is probable. In evaluating these criteria, we consider the contractual/legal basis for the claim, the cause of any additional costs incurred, the reasonableness of those costs and the objective evidence available to support the claim. These amounts are included in our calculation of net revenue recorded for our contracts and the associated remaining performance obligations. Additionally, if the contract has a provision for liquidated damages in the case that the Company misses a timing target, or fails to meet any other contract benchmarks, the Company accounts for those estimated liquidated damages as variable consideration and will adjust revenue accordingly with periodic updates to the estimated variable consideration as the job progresses. Liquidated damages are recognized as variable consideration and are estimated based on the most likely amount that is deemed probable of realization.

15

Significant Judgments

Our contracts with certain customers may be subject to contract cancellation clauses. Contracts with other cancellation provisions may require judgment in determining the contract term, including the existence of material rights, transaction price and identifying the performance obligations and whether a contract should be accounted for over time or on a completed contract basis. Revenue is recognized for certain projects over time using cost-based input methods, in which significant judgement is required to evaluate assumptions including the amount of total estimated costs to determine our progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize.

At times, customers may request changes that either amend, replace or cancel existing contracts. Judgment is required to determine whether the specific facts and circumstances within the contracts require the changes to be accounted for as a separate contract or as a modification. Generally, contract modifications containing additional goods and services that are determined to be distinct and sold at their stand-alone selling price are accounted for as a separate contract. For contract modifications where goods and services are not determined to be distinct and sold at their stand-alone selling price, the original contract is updated and the required adjustments to revenue and contract assets, liabilities, and other accounts will be made accordingly.

Our contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately rather than together may require significant judgment. For, example, we consider many of our contracts that coordinate multiple products into an integrated system to be a single performance obligation, while the same products would be considered separate performance obligations if not so integrated.

In contracts where there are timing differences between when we transfer a promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, we have determined that, our contracts do not include a significant financing component.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND EXPENSE

Through December 31, 2021, the Company had been vesting a series of stock appreciation rights (SARS) to be settled in cash to certain executives. The SARS were considered liability-classified awards meaning their fair-values were remeasured at the end of each reporting period using a binomial lattice model and any changes in fair value for the vesting periods to-date were recorded through the income statement with a corresponding liability accrued on the balance sheet. Since December 31, 2021, the SARS have been exchanged for restricted stock units (RSUs) on the modification date of January 14, 2022 as approved by the Board of Directors. To account for this exchange, the company revalued the SARS as of the modification date of January 14, 2022 using the binomial lattice model and recorded changes in the vested value since December 31, 2021 as an adjustment to the income statement. The Company then reclassified the SARS accrued liability to APIC for new RSUs and recognized incremental expense. Shares deemed vested at the modification date were released and issued net of tax in March 2022. The SARS that converted to RSUs, were added to the Company's existing RSU program. The company recorded $1.1 million and $2.4 million of expense for RSUs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

 

During Restricted Stock

In March 2021, the Company granted 3 million restricted shares with an aggregate fair value of $16.4 million with a graded vesting schedule. One-third of which were vested in April 2021, one-third of which were due to vest in April 2022, and one-third of which were due to vest in April 2023. In the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, CUI Global's 8.5% ownership investmentSeptember 30,2022, the Company recorded zero and a net credit of $3.9 million, respectively, to compensation expense related to the forfeiture and partial vesting of these grants compared to $1.4 million and $8.0 million of compensation expense in Test Products International, Inc. ("TPI"), recognized under the cost method, was exchanged three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 for a note receivable from TPI of $0.4 million, which was the carrying valuepartial vesting of the investment, earning interest at 5%grants. The credit to compensation expense in the firstnine months of 2022 was due to a reversal of expense related to the forfeiture of the unvested restricted stock upon the termination of an employee as of September 30, 2022.

Any remaining finders-fee royalties balance is offset against the note receivable quarterly. The Company also received a $19 thousand cash payment against the note in the nine months ended September 30, 2017. CUI Global reviewed the note receivable for non-collectability as of September 30, 2017 and concluded that no allowance was necessary.

9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the goodwill impairment test by eliminating Step 2 from the test among other technical changes intended to streamline the impairment test. The amendment requires an entity to perform its annual, or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis.

The Company is required to adopt ASU 2017-04 for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and may early adopt as early as its first annual or interim impairment testing date following January 1, 2017. The Company elected to early adopt the amendments of this standard effective with its May 31, 2017 goodwill impairment test. The early adoption of this standard did not impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 clarifies whether eight specifically identified cash flow issues should be categorized as operating, investing or financing activities in the statement of cash flows. The guidance will be effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that year. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

15

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 is intended to provide financial statement users with more useful information about expected credit losses on financial assets held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The new standard replaces the existing incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable forward-looking information to estimate all expected credit losses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, The FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (‘‘ASU 2016-02’’). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to present right-of-use assets and lease liabilities (with the exception of short-term leases) on the balance sheet. The new guidance will be effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 including interim periods within that fiscal year. We are currently evaluating the impact of the Company’s pending adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and will adopt the standard in 2019.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” (“ASU 2015-11”) that requires entities to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance must be applied on a prospective basis with early adoption permitted. The guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements and we have not elected to early adopt.

In May 2014, September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations to enhance transparency about an entity’s use of supplier finance programs. Under the ASU, No. 2014-09, “the buyer in a supplier finance program is required to disclose information about the key terms of the program, outstanding confirmed amounts as of the end of the period, a roll-forward of such amounts during each annual period, and a description of where in the financial statements outstanding amounts are presented. An entity should also consider whether the existence of a supplier finance program changes the appropriate presentation of the payables in the program from trade payables to borrowings. The amendments in this update are effective for the Company for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the disclosure of roll-forward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this new standard, which is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): RevenueFair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. ASU 2022-03 clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security should not be considered in measuring fair value. It also requires the following disclosures for equity securities subject to the contractual sale restrictions: 1) the fair value of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions reflected in the balance sheet; 2) the nature and remaining duration of the restriction(s); and 3) the circumstances that could cause a lapse in the restriction(s). ASU 2022-03 is effective for the fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023.

See note 16 for more information about the Company's prepaid advance agreement. There were no transfers between Level 3 and Level 2 in 2017 the three months ended September 30, 2022 as determined at the end of the reporting period. The contingent consideration liability is associated with the acquisition of Tectrol in March 2015 and represents the present value of the expected future contingent payment based on revenue projections of select Tectrol legacy products. The inputs used to measure contingent consideration are classified as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. The valuation is not supported by market criteria and reflects the Company’s internal revenue forecasts. Since the valuation is not supported by market criteria, the valuation is completely dependent on unobservable inputs. During quarterly updates of the valuation, the calculation of the value is based on actual and reasonably estimated future revenues. Based on the Company’s revenue projections and third quarter 2017 analysis, the current value of the contingent consideration increased $3 thousand, net of actual payments made during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

11. LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

In accordance with FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260 (“FASB ASC 260”), “Earnings per Share,” Basic loss from continuing operations per share, basic income from discontinued operations per share and basic net income (loss) per share that is available to shareholders is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the periodor loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss)loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss)the respective loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period calculated using the treasury stock method. Due to the Company’s net loss from continuing operations in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 2022 and September 30, 2016, 2021, the assumed exercise of stock options, warrants and the unvested restricted stock that would otherwise increase diluted shares using the treasury stock method would have had an antidilutive effect and therefore 1.00.2 million shares related to stock options, 16.2 million warrants outstanding at September 30,2022 and 4.6 million shares of restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 2022 and 2016. Accordingly,0.2 million shares related to stock options outstanding at September 30, 2021 were excluded for the three and nine months ended September 30,2021 and 2.3 million shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172021. Accordingly, diluted earnings (loss) per share for continuing operations, discontinued operations and 2016.net income is the same as basic earnings (loss) per share for continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

           Variable rate at 2.25% above the daily one-month LIBOR rate.

When those checks are presented for payment if there isn't sufficient cash in the bank account, the checks would be honored by the bank with a corresponding increase to CUI's draw on its line of credit. There were no negative book cash balances included in the balance on the line of credit as of September 30, 2017.

(2)During the second quarter of 2017, the Company modified its LOC agreement, which included extending the expiration date, adding CUI-Canada assets as collateral, and modifying restrictive debt covenants and increasing the interest rate on the facility. During the third quarter of 2017, the Company further modified its LOC agreement, temporarily increasing the credit limit until December 31, 2017 to $6 million from $4 million.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Performance and Payment Bonds and Parent Guarantees

In the ordinary course of business, Orbital Infrastructure Group and its subsidiaries are required by certain customers to provide performance and payment bonds for contractual commitments related to their projects. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of a contract and that the Company will pay its subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under a contract or to pay its subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company must reimburse the surety for expenses or outlays it incurs. Certain bonds are for open-ended contracts with multiple work orders so the value may increase as the work progresses and more work orders are started. The bonds will remain in place as the Company completes projects and resolves any disputed matters with the customers, vendors and subcontractors related to the bonded projects. As of September 30,2022, the total amount of the outstanding performance and payment bonds was approximately $38.4 million. In addition, the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $1.4 million as of September 30, 2022.

Additionally, from time to time, we guarantee certain obligations and liabilities of our subsidiaries that may arise in connection with, among other things, contracts with customers, equipment lease obligations, and contractor licenses. These guarantees may cover all of the subsidiary’s unperformed, undischarged and unreleased obligations and liabilities under or in connection with the relevant agreement. For example, with respect to customer contracts, a guarantee may cover a variety of obligations and liabilities arising during the ordinary course of the subsidiary’s business or operations, including, among other things, warranty and breach of contract claims, third-party and environmental liabilities arising from the subsidiary’s work and for which it is responsible, liquidated damages, or indemnity claims.

Contingent Liabilities

Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. is occasionally party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, negligence or gross negligence and/or property damages, wage and hour and other employment-related damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief.

Regarding all lawsuits, claims and proceedings, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. records a reserve when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. discloses matters for which management believes a material loss is at least reasonably possible. None of these proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc.’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In all instances, management has assessed the matter based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, considering the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. Management’s judgment may prove materially inaccurate, and such judgment is made subject to the known uncertainties of litigation.

Overview

CUI GlobalOrbital Infrastructure Group is a platformdiversified infrastructure services company serving customers in the electric power, telecommunications, and renewable markets. The Company is dedicated to maximizing shareholder value through greenfield development and the acquisition developmentof, and commercializationinvestment in successful, entrepreneurial led companies to profitably grow revenues by providing end-to-end solutions to customers, primarily in the renewable, electric power transmission and distribution, and telecommunications infrastructure markets. The Company is organized in three segments. The Electric Power segment consists of new, innovative technologies. ThroughFront Line Power Construction, LLC based in Houston, Texas, Orbital Power, Inc. based in Dallas, Texas, and Eclipse Foundation Group based in Gonzales, Louisiana. The segment provides comprehensive infrastructure solutions to customers in the electric power industry. Services performed by Front Line Power and Orbital Power, Inc. generally include but are not limited to the engineering, design, installation, upgrade, repair and maintenance of electric power transmission and distribution infrastructure and substation facilities as well as emergency restoration services. Eclipse Foundation Group, which began operations in January 2021, is a drilled shaft foundation construction company that specializes in providing services to the electric transmission and substation, industrial, telecommunication and disaster restoration market sectors, with expertise performing services in water, marsh and rock terrains. In the third quarter of 2022, in order to streamline operations, the Eclipse business was integrated into Front Line Power Construction, LLC, and ceased to be a separate business unit.

The Telecommunications segment consists of Gibson Technical Services (GTS) along with its subsidiaries CUI Global has builtIMMCO, Inc. based in Atlanta, Georgia and Full Moon Telecom, LLC based in Florida. GTS provides engineering, design, construction, and maintenance services to the broadband and wireless telecommunication industries and was acquired by the Company effective April 13, 2021. IMMCO, Inc. provides enterprise solutions to the cable and telecommunication industries and was acquired by the Company effective July 28, 2021. Full Moon Telecom, LLC provides telecommunication services including an extensive array of wireless service capabilities and was acquired by the Company effective October 22, 2021.

25

Orbital Solar Services, LLC (OSS), based in Raleigh, North Carolina, makes up the Renewables segment. OSS provides engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services that support the development of renewable energy generation focused on utility-scale solar construction. 

The Company has experienced rapid growth through organic growth and acquisitions as the Company benefits from its 2021 investments and acquisitions and as the economy continues to emerge from the COVID-19 induced slowdown. Third quarter 2022 revenue was over four times greater than the Company's total revenue from the third quarter of 2021. Improved revenues and income were a result of the inclusion of operations from the November acquisition of Front Line Power Construction in the Electric Power segment and continued growth in the Telecommunications segment acquired in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The Company continues to pursue both organic growth and growth through acquisitions. The Company's Telecommunications segment made an additional "tuck-in" acquisition in the first quarter of 2022 for cash and stock consideration of approximately $0.9 million.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, the Company began to see tangible benefits for all segments from the investments the Company made in 2021 through improved revenue. These benefits were offset by sub-contractor labor and material cost over-runs at OSS's Black Bear project that is projected to be completed by the end of the year. The Company is in the midst of a reset of its solar business. The solar reset should not materially change the revenue mix in the near term. Given some of the recent legislation and executive order, solar projects that had been delayed are now likely to be opportunities in 2023 and beyond. As the Company moves away from providing engineering, procurement, and construction ("EPC") services to being a specialized contractor providing skilled resources to EPC companies, the Company will benefit from a reduced risk profile that comes with being an EPC, and margins will be enhanced as we will not share profits or losses with our joint venture partners as we are now required to do. 

The Company's results were affected negatively in the first nine months of 2022 by the $29.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt primarily related to the Company's seller financed debt on the November 2021 Front Line Construction acquisition and stock-based payments made against its investor held debt for which the stock was issued at a discount to the stock's fair value.

In the third quarter of 2021, the Company incurred ramp-up costs in the Electric Power segment that put downward pressure on margins in the third quarter of 2021.The Company also incurred professional fees related to mergers and acquisitions as the Company finalized the acquisition of GTS. The three-month period ended September 30, 2021, for both segments were also negatively affected by generally lower economic activity due to the COVID-19 pandemic that caused economic slowdowns throughout the world.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, CUI Global2022, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. had a consolidated loss from continuing operations of $2.0$141.6 million and $7.7$208.3 million, respectively, compared to a consolidated loss from continuing operations in the three and nine months ended September 30, 20162021, of $0.6$9.5 million and $3.9$34.1 million, respectively. 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, CUI Global2022, Orbital Infrastructure Group, Inc. had a consolidated net loss of $1.9$210.8 million and $7.3 million, respectively, compared to a consolidated net loss in the three and nine months ended September 30, 20162021, of $0.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively.$36.3 million. The consolidatedgreater net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, was primarily the result of lower revenue in the Energy segment related to lower sales of gas related metering, monitoring and control systems, including GasPT and the negative impact of hurricane related work stoppages and customer delays/issues in the Houston market, lower gross profit margins in the Energy segment, and the ongoing amortization of intangible assets related to the Orbital Gas Systems Limited and CUI-Canada acquisitions. In addition, the Power and Electromechanical segment had slightly lower gross profit on slightly higher revenues in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016. Overall lower results for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were partially offset2022, was primarily the result of impairments on goodwill, intangibles, and financing leased assets, the loss on extinguishment of debt related to the loan modification of the seller financed debt, and increased interest expense related to acquisitions financed by increased revenues and gross profitdebt in the Power and Electromechanical segmentsecond half of 2021.

Revenues from continuing operations increased for the nine month period. In 2017, a lower value of the British pound Sterlingmonths ended September 30, 2022, due to the June 2016 Brexit vote resultedcontinued ramp-up of the Electric Power and Renewables segments along with the addition of the Telecommunications segment which was assembled via acquisitions starting in lower translated revenue at our U.K. operations, but did not have a significant effect on operating or net income.the second quarter of 2021 and continuing into 2022.

The revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were lower than2022, increased compared to the 2021 comparable period due to lower revenues in our Energy segment associated with the timing of customer project delivery schedules and the temporary halt of deliveries of gas related metering, monitoring and control systems, including GasPT units in Italy due to a tariff issue as well as lower translated revenue at our UK operationsperiods primarily due to the lower value British pound Sterlingadditions of the Telecommunications segment following Brexit. The Italian contract is stillthe acquisitions of GTS in placeQ2 2021, IMMCO in Q3 2021, Full Moon in Q4 2021 and Coax Fiber Solutions, LLC in Q1 2022 along with the Company announced in October 2017 that the tariff issue has been resolved and that the Company believes deliveries will resume in early 2018. Partially offsetting the decreaseacquisition of Front Line Power Construction, LLC, included in the EnergyCompany's Electric Power segment, was an increaseadded in revenueQ4 2021. In addition, Orbital Power Inc. in the Electric Power and Electromechanical segment has continued to ramp up operations in 2022. Renewables had significantly higher revenues in the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172022, on the strength of several large projects compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, which was affected by supply chain issues and a general slow-down caused by the COVID-19 epidemic.

The Electric Power Segment held backlogs of customer orders of approximately $226.8 million as of September 30, 2022, and $207.7 million at December 31, 2021. The increase in backlog is generally due to the timing of customer delivery schedules and sell through activity at distributors.

master service agreement renewals. The customer orders related to the Power and Electromechanical segment are associated with the existing product offering, continued new product introductions, continued sales and marketing programs, new customer engagements, distribution channel sales, and the addition in March 2015 of the products from CUI-Canada. In October 2017, the Company announced its first order for its new power monitoring and switching system (ICE Switch) for data centers that is expected to be delivered in the first quarter of 2018.

The Power and Electromechanical segment and EnergyTelecommunications segment held backlogs of customer orders of approximately $18.1$209.2 million and $13.7 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2017.2022, compared to a backlog of $194.5 million at December 31, 2021. Increases to the backlog are due to the continuous growth of Gibson Technical Services. The Renewables segment had a backlog of $36.3 million as of September 30, 2022 compared to $121.4 million as of December 31, 2021 which is due to further work being completed and revenue being recognized in the quarter on projects that make up this backlog. Of the September 30, 2022, backlog totals, the amounts expected to be recognized in the twelve months following Q3 2022 are approximately $265.9 million. The amounts expected to be recognized in the twelve months following Q3 2022 consist of $150.1 million from the Electric Power segment, $79.5 million from the Telecommunications segment and $36.3 million from the Renewables segment.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2022, the cost of revenues as a percent of revenue increased to 66% from 62% during the prior year comparative period. This percentage will vary based upon the power and electromechanical product mix sold, the mix of natural gas systems sold, contract labor necessary to complete gas related projects, the competitive markets in which the Company competes, and foreign exchange rates.

The cost of revenues as a percentage of revenue for the Power and Electromechanical segment for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2017 was 66% for both periods compareddecreased to 65% and 64%, respectively, during94.1% from 107.4% from the prior-year comparative periods.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses include such items as wages, commissions, consulting, general office expenses, business promotion expenses and costs of being a public company, including legal and accounting fees, insurance and investor relations. SG&A expenses are generally associated with the ongoing activities to reach new customers, promote new product and service lines including Novum, ICE, GasPT, IRISfor the Electric Power segment, Renewables segment, and VE,Telecommunications segments.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, SG&A increased $1.0 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to organic growth and new product introductions.the Company's 2021 and 2022 acquisitions. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022 SG&A decreased $3.7 million compared to the prior-year comparative periods. The decrease in SG&A for the nine month period was primarily due to decreased SG&A costs in the Renewables segment due to the $5.2 million restricted stock forfeiture related to a Renewables' Executive termination in Q1 2022 and higher stock-based compensation in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the restricted stock vesting expense recorded in 2021 on the restricted stock that was subsequently forfeited in the first quarter of 2022. Also contributing to the decreased SG&A was lower executive bonuses in Q1 2022 and a $0.3 million positive cash settled SARS mark-to-market fair value adjustment in 2022 compared to a $2.5 million mark-to-market expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. These decreases were partially offset by increases in SG&A in the Electric Power and Telecommunications segments primarily due to organic growth and the Company's 2021 and 2022 acquisitions. 

 

DuringImpairments of goodwill and intangible assets

The Company recorded $100.3 million of impairments of goodwill and intangible assets in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, SG&A increased $0.1 million,2022 due to an additional 25-percent drop in the Company's stock price between June 30, 2022 and decreased $0.8 million, respectively, compared toSeptember 30, 2022, that caused an overall further decrease in the prior-year comparative periods.

Additional triggering events included the significant loss in SG&Athe Renewables segment in the third quarter of 2017 was due2022, interest rate increases and limitations on accessing capital, which raised substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to increased costscontinue as a going concern. See Note 1 for more information on goodwill and goodwill impairments.

Restructuring Costs

In September 2022, the Company fully impaired its finance lease equipment related to the Eclipse Foundation Group in the EnergyElectric Power segment, primarily duewhich was integrated by Front Line Power. These pieces of equipment are drilling specific and at this time, the Company does not plan to severance costuse the equipment for the remaining term of approximately $0.1 millionthe leases. As these leases are non-cancelable and do not include a sub-leasing option, the full finance lease assets related to Eclipse have been removed from the balance sheet and an equal impairment has been recognized in the U.K. and increased advertising costsamount of $4.5 million. Future payments related to these leases will be approximately $86 thousand for the segment. The decreases in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 are largely due to $0.8$5.2 million in severance costs incurred in the first nine months of 2016 in the Power and Electromechanical segment for the transition of the R&D team to CUI-Canada and for various positions within the Energy segment. In addition, the Company began implementing various cost saving measures in Q2 2017, which provided some benefits in Q2 and Q3 and are expected to further improve SG&A going forward. These benefits were partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in advertising costs in the Energy segment in the nine months ended September 30, 2017. SG&A as a percent of revenue slightly increased to 38% from 35% of total revenue during the three-month period ended September 30, 2017, primarily due to lower revenues and slightly increased to 41% from 39% for the nine-month period ended primarily due to lower revenues offset by SG&A expense reductions.paid through June 2026.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Company Conditions and Sources of Liquidity

The Company has experienced net losses, cash outflows from cash used in operating activities and a decline in share value over the past years. As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $421.4 million, loss from continuing operations of $208.3 million, and net cash used in operating activities of $13.4 million. Further, as of September 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $118.7 million, including current maturities of debt, and cash and cash equivalents of $28.0 million available for working capital needs and planned capital asset expenditures.  As a result of the foregoing, the Company does not have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet its obligations and fund its operations for the twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has plans to access additional capital to meet its obligations for the twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. Historically, the Company has raised additional equity and debt financing to fund its expansion; refer to Note 16 — Notes Payable and Line of Credit. The Company has also funded some of its capital expenditures through long-term financing with lenders and other investors as also described in further detail in Note 16 — Notes Payable and Line of Credit. Our ability to raise the additional capital is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the market demand for our common stock, which itself is subject to a number of business risks and uncertainties, our creditworthiness and the uncertainty that we would be able to raise such additional capital at a price that is favorable to us. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has an effective S-3 shelf registration statement for the issuance of various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants in the aggregate of up to $68.8 million. In addition, although no formal agreements exist, the company has solicited interest from various lenders to potentially raise additional term debt to restructure or refinance its existing notes.

The Company plans to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months by raising additional capital through equity and debt financing sources and forecasted positive cash flows generated from operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in executing these plans. If unsuccessful, the Company will not have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to repay its indebtedness when it matures, or otherwise meet its cash requirements over the next twelve months, as noted above.

General

As of September 30, 2017,2022, the Company held Cashcash and cash equivalents of $0.8$28.0 million and restricted cash of $0.6 million. Operations, investments, patents and equipment have been funded through cash on hand, the issuance of common stock authorized by its July 2020 and February 2021 S-3 filings, seller financing, and the issuance of debt and financing through the sale of future revenues. The Company filed an S-3 in February of 2021 which became effective in April 2021 for the issuance of additional stock or public debt. In April 2022, the Company issued 9,000,000 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 7,153,847 shares of Common Stock for a total raise of $21.0 million before expenses. In August of 2021, the Company opened a $4.0 million dollar line of credit to support additional funding. Major uses of cash in the first nine months of 2022 included the purchases of property and equipment, debt payments and changes in working capital. The Company continues to work to improve its short-term liquidity through management of its working capital. Long-term liquidity is expected to benefit from revenue growth and earnings through its existing operations. Overall volume growth in the Company's businesses both organically and through acquisitions are expected to benefit cash flows as well.

 

Cash Used Inin Operations

Cash used in operations of $5.8$13.4 million was a $6.9$23.5 million increasedecrease in cash used compared to the comparablenine-month period in 2016. 2021.

The nine months ended September 30, 2017 were significantly affected by lower revenue and the related gross profitsdecrease in the Energy segment. Inuses of cash in the first nine months of 2017,2022 are primarily related to higher merger and acquisition costs in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to 2022 along with company growth in 2022. Due to the large increase in revenue and associated costs both through acquisitions and organic growth, the Company was better able to cover it's fixed costs, but increased interest costs partially offset the benefits of much greater sales. Also, with the growth of the company's revenue comes increased accounts receivables and accounts payable, which outside of timing, generally have offsetting cash flow effects. In the short-term, rapid growth can have a detrimental effect on cash flows as sales on account with positive gross margins waiting to be collected exceed accounts payable not yet paid. As the Company's growth begins to moderate, overall cash used in operations by the Energy segment was approximately $5.4 million, and cash used in operations by the Other category was approximately $4.0 million. These uses of cash were partially offset by cash provided by operating activities in the Power and Electromechanical segment of approximately $3.6 million. We believe cash from operations will improve in the Energy segment in the first half of 2018 due to the recently announced resolution of the tariff issue that caused a temporary halt in deliveries on our Italy contract. The Power and Electromechanical segment is expected to continue to provide cash from operationsimprove through revenue growth associated with new customers and we believe the cash usage rate in the other category to be less in the fourth quarter of the year due to cost cutting initiatives put in place during the first nine months of the year.

larger projects. The change in cash used in operating activities since December 31, 2021, exclusive of net loss, is primarily the result of the following line items: Timing of cash payments on accounts payable and accrued liabilities was a larger net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and negative cash flows due to thecombined $36.9 million increase in trade accounts receivable of $1.7 million, increases in inventory of $0.9 million, increases in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $0.6 million, increases in Deposits and other assets of $0.5 million, decreases in accrued expenses of $0.5 million, and payments of accounts payable of $0.3 million partially offset by cash provided by changesoperating activities related to larger projects at Orbital Solar Services. Changes in unearned revenue of $2.2 million, costscost in excess of billingsbilling and accounts receivable from December 31, 2021, was a combined $14.5 million use of $1.4 millioncash for the period and changesreflects the greater revenue volumes in billings in excess of costs of $0.7 million.

During the first nine months of 2017 and 2016,2022 compared to the Company used stock as a form of payment to certain employees, vendors and consultants. For thefirst nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded a total of $0.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively for share-based compensation related to equity given, or to be given and for options vesting, to employees and consultants for services provided and as payment for royalties earned.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

OurThe Company has adopted various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial statements and related public financial information are based onin accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, ("GAAP"). Certain of the Company's accounting policies require the application of accounting principles generally acceptedsignificant judgment by management in selecting the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requiresappropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. In the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impactCompany's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 31, 2022, the assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense amounts reported. Significant estimates include estimates used to reviewCompany identified the Company’s goodwill, impairment and estimations of long-lived assets, impairment of prepaid royalties, revenue recognition on percentage of completion type contracts, allowances for uncollectible accounts, inventory valuation, warranty reserves, valuation of non-cash capital stock issuances and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in the Company’s external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe the Company’s use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of the Company’s financial statements.

While all of the Company’s significant accounting policies impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, we view the following policies as critical:

Asset impairments
Identifiable intangibles and goodwill
Percentage of completion
Revenue recognition
Stock based compensation
Valuation of noncash capital stock issuances
Income taxes

Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on the Company’s financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The Company’s management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report. A description of our critical accounting policies and related judgments and estimates that affect the preparation of our condensedCompany's more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing the Company's consolidated financial statements is set forth in our 2016 Form 10-K.statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.

 

The Company is exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact the Company’s financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. This market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company neither holds nor issues financial instruments for trading purposes.

 

The following sections provide quantitative information on the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company makes use

For the Nine months ended September 30, 2016                
Revenues  70%  29%  %  1%
Operating expenses  68%  24%  7%  1%

To date, the Company has not entered into any hedging arrangements with respect to foreign currency risk and have limited activity with forward foreign currency contracts or other similar derivative instruments. We believe that during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the effect of a hypothetical 100 basis point shift in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to the Company’s business would not have had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
