Northwest Pipe Company (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a leading manufacturer of water related infrastructure products, and operates in two segments, Engineered Steel Pressure Pipe (“SPP”) and Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems (“Precast”). This segment presentation is consistent with how the Company’s chief operating decision maker, its Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance of the Company and makes decisions regarding the allocation of resources.

In addition to being the largest manufacturer of engineered steel water pipeline systems in North America, the Company manufactures high-quality precast and reinforced concrete products; water, wastewater, and stormwater equipment; steel casing pipe, bar-wrapped concrete cylinder pipe, and one of the largest offerings of pipeline system joints, fittings, and specialized components. Strategically positioned to meet growing water and wastewater infrastructure needs, the Company provides solution-based products for a wide range of markets under the ParkUSA, Geneva Pipe and Precast, Permalok®, and Northwest Pipe Company lines. The Company is headquartered in Vancouver, Washington, and has 13 manufacturing facilities across North America.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are expressed in United States Dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control as of the financial statement date. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Effective in the fourth quarter of 2021, as a result of the acquisition of Park Environmental Equipment, LLC (“ParkUSA”), the Company revised its historical one segment position and identified the new operating segments, SPP and Precast, to align with changes made in its internal management structure and its reporting structure of financial information used to assess performance and allocate resources. See Note ~~12,~~15, “Segment Information” for detailed descriptions of these segments. As a result, certain amounts from the prior year financial statements have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.

The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. The financial information as of December 31, 2021 is derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“2021 Form 10‑K”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the accounting standards for interim financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company’s 2021 Form 10‑K.

Operating results for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

On October 5, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of Park Environmental Equipment, LLC (ParkUSA) for a purchase price of ~~approximately $88.4~~$90.2 million in cash ~~subject to a post-closing adjustment based on changes in net working capital, and~~which is included in the Precast segment for all periods following the acquisition date. ParkUSA is a precast concrete and steel fabrication-based company that develops and manufactures water, wastewater, and environmental solutions. Operations continue with ParkUSA’s previous management and workforce at its three Texas manufacturing facilities located in Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio.

The following table summarizes the purchase consideration and fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of October 5, 2021 (in thousands):

The tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, with the excess purchase consideration recorded as goodwill. The asset and liability fair value measurements primarily related to inventories, identifiable intangible assets, deferred income taxes, accrued liabilities, and goodwill, are preliminary and subject to change asAs a result of additional information ~~is obtained. The acquisition accounting will be finalized as soon as practicable within~~obtained during the measurement period ~~but~~ ~~not~~ ~~later than~~ ~~one~~ ~~year following~~about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition ~~date.~~date, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments during the three and nine months ended September 30,2022 which resulted in a $1.8 million increase in goodwill and purchase consideration related to the settlement of working capital. The measurement period for the ParkUSA acquisition was complete as of September 30,2022.

The following table summarizes the components of the intangible assets acquired and their estimated useful lives:

Goodwill arose from the acquisition of an assembled workforce, expansion of product offerings, and management’s industry know-how, and is ~~expected to be~~ deductible for tax purposes.

The Company incurred transaction costs associated with this acquisition of $0 and $0.1 million during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, respectively and ~~$0.1~~$0.6 million and ~~$0.2~~$0.8 million during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, respectively. These transaction costs are included in Selling, general, and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated results of the Company as if the acquisition of ParkUSA had occurred on January 1 of the year prior to the acquisition (in thousands):

This unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data is included only for the purpose of illustration and does not necessarily indicate what the operating results would have been if the acquisition of ParkUSA had occurred on January 1 of the year prior to the acquisition. Moreover, this information is not indicative of what the Company’s future operating results will be. The information prior to the acquisition is included based on prior accounting records maintained by ParkUSA. The pro forma amounts have been calculated after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of ParkUSA to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property and equipment and intangible assets had been applied on January 1 of the year prior to the acquisition. Adjustments also include an increase of interest expense as if the Company’s debt obtained in connection with the acquisition of ParkUSA had been outstanding since January 1 of the year prior to the acquisition. The provision for income taxes has also been adjusted for all periods, based upon the foregoing adjustments to historical results.

The Company has recorded goodwill in connection with its business acquisitions within the Precast reportable segment. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 30,2022 were as follows (in thousands):

In August 2022, the Company entered into an Interim Funding Agreement (“IFA”) with Wells Fargo Equipment Finance, Inc. (“WFEF”) allowing for aggregate interim funding advances up to $13.5 million of equipment purchased for a new reinforced concrete pipe mill, to be converted into a term loan upon final delivery and acceptance of the financed equipment. The IFA bears interest at the Term Secured Overnight Finance Rate plus 1.75%, requires monthly payments of accrued interest, and grants a security interest in the equipment to WFEF. As of September 30,2022, the outstanding balance was $3.5 million, which is classified as a current liability since there is not a firm commitment for long-term debt financing.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. These levels are: Level 1 (inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities); Level 2 (inputs are other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data); and Level 3 (inputs are unobservable, with little or no market data that exists, such as internal financial forecasts). The Company is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

The following table summarizes information regarding the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

The deferred compensation plan assets consist of cash and several publicly traded stock and bond mutual funds, valued using quoted market prices in active markets, classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy, as well as guaranteed investment contracts, valued at principal plus interest credited at contract rates, classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Deferred compensation plan assets are included within Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate ~~swap~~swaps are derivatives valued using various pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses that incorporate observable market parameters, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Derivative valuations incorporate credit risk adjustments that are necessary to reflect the probability of default by the counterparty or the Company. The foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate ~~swap~~swaps are presented at their gross fair values. Foreign currency forward contract and interest rate swap assets are included within Prepaid expenses and other and foreign currency forward contract liabilities are included within Accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The net carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and borrowings on the line of credit approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Consistent with the Company’s strategy for financial risk management, the Company has established a program that utilizes foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps to offset the risks associated with the effects of these exposures.

For each derivative entered into in which the Company seeks to obtain cash flow hedge accounting treatment, the Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method of measuring ineffectiveness. This process includes linking all derivatives to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions and designating the derivatives as cash flow hedges. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items. The effective portion of these hedged items is reflected in Unrealized gain (loss) on cash flow hedges on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. If it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective, or that it has ceased to be a highly effective hedge, the Company is required to discontinue hedge accounting with respect to that derivative prospectively.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the total notional amount of the foreign currency forward contracts was ~~$19.5~~$17.8 million (CAD$~~25.2~~24.6 million) and ~~$7.8~~$7.3 million (EUR$7.4 million), which included ~~$1.1~~$0.7 million (CAD$~~1.4~~1.0 million) of foreign currency forward contracts not designated as cash flow hedges. As of December 31, 2021, the total notional amount of the foreign currency forward contracts was $19.0 million (CAD$24.1 million), and all foreign currency forward contracts were designated as cash flow hedges. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts mature at various dates through October 2023 and are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the interest rate swap, which effectively converts a portion of the Company’s variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt, was designated as a cash flow hedge. The Company receives floating interest payments monthly based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) and pays a fixed rate of 1.941% to the counterparty. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the total notional amount was ~~$36.7~~$31.7 million, which amortizes ratably on a monthly basis to zero by the April 2024 maturity date.

On August 9,2022, the Company entered into an interest rate swap transaction which will begin April 3,2023 at a notional amount of $15.0 million, which will amortize ratably on a monthly basis to zero by the April ~~2024~~2028 maturity date. The Company will receive floating interest payments monthly based on the 30‑day Average SOFR and will pay a fixed rate of 2.96% to the counterparty.

The following table summarizes the gains (losses) recognized on derivatives in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (in thousands):

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, unrealized pretax gains (losses) on outstanding cash flow hedges in Accumulated other comprehensive loss was ~~$(0.3)~~$0.3 million, of which ~~approximately $0, $(0.6)~~$0.4 million, $(1.1) million, and ~~$0.2~~$0.6 million are expected to be reclassified to Net sales, Property and equipment, and Interest expense, respectively, within the next twelve months as a result of underlying hedged transactions also being recorded in these line items. See Note ~~10,~~13, “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss” for additional information regarding foreign currency forward contract gains and losses.

On September 2,2022, the Company entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement (the “At-the-Market Offering”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”), pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having aggregate offering sales proceeds of up to $50,000,000 (the “Shares”) from time to time through Jefferies as its sales agent. The Company may sell the Shares in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company from time to time subject to the terms and conditions of the At-the-Market Offering, but it has no obligation to sell any of the Shares under the At-the-Market Offering. The Shares to be sold under the At-the-Market Offering, if any, will be offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S‑3 (File No.333‑249637) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective on November 3,2020, and the prospectus supplement dated September 2,2022 filed by the Company. The Company will pay Jefferies a cash commission of up to 3.0% of gross proceeds from the sale of the Shares pursuant to the At-the-Market Offering. The Company has also agreed to provide Jefferies with customary indemnification and contribution rights. No proceeds were raised under the At-the-Market Offering during the three and nine months ended September 30,2022.

The Company has one active stock incentive plan for employees and directors, the 2022 Stock Incentive Plan, which provides for awards of stock options to purchase shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights, restricted and unrestricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and performance share awards (“PSAs”). In addition, the Company has one inactive stock incentive plan, the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, under which previously granted awards remain outstanding.

The Company recognizes the compensation cost of employee and director services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant date estimated fair value of the awards. The Company estimates the fair value of RSUs and PSAs using the value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. Share-based compensation cost is recognized over the period during which the employee or director is required to provide service in exchange for the award and, as forfeitures occur, the associated compensation cost recognized to date is reversed. For awards with performance-based payout conditions, the Company recognizes compensation cost based on the probability of achieving the performance conditions, with changes in expectations recognized as an adjustment to earnings in the period of change. Any recognized compensation cost is reversed if the conditions are ultimately not met.

The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recorded (in thousands):

The Company’s stock incentive plan provides for equity instruments, such as RSUs and PSAs, which grant the right to receive a specified number of shares over a specified period of time. RSUs and PSAs are service-based awards that vest according to the terms of the grant. PSAs have performance-based payout conditions.

The unvested balance of RSUs and PSAs as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 includes approximately 149,000 PSAs at the target level of 100%. The vesting of these awards is subject to the achievement of specified performance-based conditions, and the actual number of common shares that will ultimately be issued will be determined by multiplying this number of PSAs by a payout percentage ranging from 0% to 200%.

Based on the estimated level of achievement of the performance targets associated with the PSAs as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested portion of the Company’s RSUs and PSAs was ~~$5.5~~$4.6 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of ~~1.8~~1.6 years.

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, stock awards of 11,380 shares and 12,606 shares, respectively, were granted to non-employee directors, which vested immediately upon issuance. The Company recorded compensation expense based on the weighted-average fair market value per share of the awards on the grant date of $30.75 in 2022 and $30.94 in 2021.

In December 2000, a section of the lower Willamette River known as the Portland Harbor Superfund Site was included on the National Priorities List at the request of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). While the Company’s Portland, Oregon manufacturing facility does not border the Willamette River, an outfall from the facility’s stormwater system drains into a neighboring property’s privately owned stormwater system and slip. Also in December 2000, the Company was notified by the EPA and the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (“ODEQ”) of potential liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”). A remedial investigation and feasibility study of the Portland Harbor Superfund Site was directed by a group of 14 potentially responsible parties known as the Lower Willamette Group under agreement with the EPA. The EPA finalized the remedial investigation report in February 2016, and the feasibility study in June 2016, which identified multiple remedial alternatives. In January 2017, the EPA issued its Record of Decision selecting the remedy for cleanup at the Portland Harbor Superfund Site, which it believes will cost approximately $1 billion at net present value and 13 years to complete. The EPA has not yet determined who is responsible for the costs of cleanup or how the cleanup costs will be allocated among the more than 150 potentially responsible parties. Because of the large number of potentially responsible parties and the variability in the range of remediation alternatives, the Company is unable to estimate an amount or an amount within a range of costs for its obligation with respect to the Portland Harbor Superfund Site matters, and no further adjustment to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements has been recorded as of the date of this filing.

The ODEQ is separately providing oversight of voluntary investigations and source control activities by the Company involving the Company’s site, which are focused on controlling any current “uplands” releases of contaminants into the Willamette River. No liabilities have been established in connection with these investigations because the extent of contamination and the Company’s responsibility for the contamination have not yet been determined.

Concurrent with the activities of the EPA and the ODEQ, the Portland Harbor Natural Resources Trustee Council (“Trustees”) sent some or all of the same parties, including the Company, a notice of intent to perform a Natural Resource Damage Assessment (“NRDA”) for the Portland Harbor Superfund Site to determine the nature and extent of natural resource damages under CERCLA Section 107. The Trustees for the Portland Harbor Superfund Site consist of representatives from several Northwest Indian Tribes, three federal agencies, and one state agency. The Trustees act independently of the EPA and the ODEQ. The Trustees have encouraged potentially responsible parties to voluntarily participate in the funding of their injury assessments and several of those parties have agreed to do so. In June 2014, the Company agreed to participate in the injury assessment process, which included funding $0.4 million of the assessment. The Company has not assumed any additional payment obligations or liabilities with the participation with the NRDA, nor does the Company expect to incur significant future costs in the resolution of the NRDA.

In January 2017, the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation, a Trustee until they withdrew from the council in 2009, filed a complaint against the potentially responsible parties including the Company to recover costs related to their own injury assessment and compensation for natural resources damages. The Company does not have sufficient information to determine the likelihood of a loss in this matter or the amount of damages that could be allocated to the Company.

The Company has insurance policies for defense costs, as well as indemnification policies it believes will provide reimbursement for the remediation assessed. However, the Company can provide no assurance that those policies will cover all of the costs which the Company may incur.

The Company operates its facilities under numerous governmental permits and licenses relating to air emissions, stormwater runoff, and other environmental matters. The Company’s operations are also governed by many other laws and regulations, including those relating to workplace safety and worker health, principally the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations there under which, among other requirements, establish noise and dust standards. The Company believes it is in material compliance with its permits and licenses and these laws and regulations, and the Company does not believe that future compliance with such laws and regulations will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

From time to time, the Company is party to a variety of legal actions, including claims, suits, complaints, and investigations arising out of the ordinary course of its business. The Company maintains insurance coverage against potential claims in amounts that are believed to be adequate. To the extent that insurance does not cover legal, defense, and indemnification costs associated with a loss contingency, the Company records accruals when such losses are considered probable and reasonably estimable. The Company believes that it is not presently a party to legal actions, the outcomes of which would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company’s commitments include approximately ~~$7.7~~$7.3 million relating to its investment in a new reinforced concrete pipe mill for which the Company has not yet received the equipment.

The Company has entered into certain letters of credit that total $1.1 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The letters of credit relate to workers’ compensation insurance.

The Company manufactures water infrastructure steel pipe products, which are generally made to custom specifications for installation contractors serving projects funded by public water agencies, as well as precast and reinforced concrete products. Generally, each of the Company’s contracts with its customers contains a single performance obligation, as the promise to transfer products is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, is not distinct.

SPP revenue for water infrastructure steel pipe products is recognized over time as the manufacturing process progresses because of the Company’s right to payment for work performed to date plus a reasonable profit on cancellations for unique products that have no alternative use to the Company. Revenue is measured by the costs incurred to date relative to the estimated total direct costs to fulfill each contract (cost-to-cost method). Contract costs include all material, labor, and other direct costs incurred in satisfying the performance obligations. The cost of steel material is recognized as a contract cost when the steel is introduced into the manufacturing process. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract change orders, contract penalty provisions, foreign currency exchange rate movements, changes in raw materials costs, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to estimates of revenue, costs, and income, and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Provisions for losses on uncompleted contracts, included in Accrued liabilities, are estimated by comparing total estimated contract revenue to the total estimated contract costs and a loss is recognized during the period in which it becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated.

Revisions in contract estimates resulted in an increase (decrease) in SPP net sales of ~~$0.4~~$0.2 million and ~~$(0.4)~~$(0.2) million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, respectively, and ~~$0.8 million~~approximately $0 and $2.1 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, respectively.

Precast revenue for water infrastructure concrete pipe and precast concrete products is recognized at the time control is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the products. All variable consideration that may affect the total transaction price, including contractual discounts, returns, and credits, is included in net sales. Estimates for variable consideration are based on historical experience, anticipated performance, and management’s judgment. The Company’s contracts do not contain significant financing.

The Company does not recognize revenue on a contract until the contract has approval and commitment from both parties, the contract rights and payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and its collectability is probable.

The following table disaggregates revenue by recognition over time or at a point in time, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors (in thousands):

Contract assets primarily represent revenue earned over time but not yet billable based on the terms of the contracts. These amounts will be billed based on the terms of the contracts, which can include certain milestones, partial shipments, or completion of the contracts. Payment terms of amounts billed vary based on the customer, but are typically due within 30 days of invoicing.

Contract liabilities represent advance billings on contracts, typically for steel. The Company recognized revenue that was included in the contract liabilities balance at the beginning of each period of ~~$2.9~~$2.8 million and ~~$2.7~~$2.6 million during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, respectively and ~~$0.9~~$1.5 million and ~~$5.1~~$6.2 million during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, respectively.

Backlog represents the balance of remaining performance obligations under signed contracts for SPP water infrastructure steel pipe products for which revenue is recognized over time. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, backlog was ~~approximately $303~~$295 million. The Company expects to recognize ~~approximately 45%~~25% of the remaining performance obligations in 2022, ~~41%~~52% in 2023, and the balance thereafter.

The Company files income tax returns in the United States Federal jurisdiction, in a limited number of foreign jurisdictions, and in many state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to United States Federal, state, or foreign income tax examinations for years before ~~2017.~~2018.

The Company recorded income tax expense at an estimated effective income tax rate of ~~26.1%~~26.3% and 26.4% for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, respectively and ~~26.1%~~27.9% and ~~23.9%~~26.1% for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, respectively. The Company’s estimated effective income tax rates for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 were primarily impacted by non-deductible permanent differences. ~~The Company’s estimated effective income tax rate for the~~ ~~three~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~June~~ ~~30,~~~~2021~~ ~~was primarily impacted by non-deductible permanent differences, while the estimated effective income tax rate for the~~ ~~six~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~June~~ ~~30,~~~~2021~~ ~~was primarily impacted by the tax windfalls recognized upon the vesting of equity awards in the~~ ~~first~~~~three~~ ~~months of~~ ~~2021.~~

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including stock options, RSUs, and PSAs, to the extent dilutive. Performance-based PSAs are considered dilutive when the related performance conditions have been met assuming the end of the reporting period represents the end of the performance period. In periods with a net loss, all potential shares of common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the impact would be antidilutive.

Net income per basic and diluted weighted-average common share outstanding was calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The operating segments reported below are based on the nature of the products sold and the manufacturing process used by the Company and are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which operating results are regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, its Chief Executive Officer, to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. Management evaluates segment performance based on gross profit. The Company does not allocate selling, general, and administrative expenses, interest, other non-operating income or expense items, or taxes to segments.

The Company’s Engineered Steel Pressure Pipe segment (SPP) manufactures large-diameter, high-pressure steel pipeline systems for use in water infrastructure applications, which are primarily related to drinking water systems. These products are also used for hydroelectric power systems, wastewater systems, and other applications. In addition, SPP makes products for industrial plant piping systems and certain structural applications. SPP has manufacturing facilities located in Adelanto and Tracy, California; St. Louis, Missouri; Portland, Oregon; Saginaw, Texas; Parkersburg, West Virginia; and San Luis Río Colorado, Mexico.

The Company’s Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems segment (Precast) manufactures high-quality precast and reinforced concrete products, including manholes, box culverts, vaults, catch basins, oil water separators, pump lift stations, biofiltration, and other environmental and engineered solutions. Precast has manufacturing facilities located in Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio, Texas; and Orem, Salt Lake City, and St. George, Utah.

Northwest Pipe Company is a leading manufacturer of water related infrastructure products. In addition to being the largest manufacturer of engineered steel water pipeline systems in North America, we manufacture high-quality precast and reinforced concrete products; water, wastewater, and stormwater equipment; steel casing pipe, bar-wrapped concrete cylinder pipe, and one of the largest offerings of pipeline system joints, fittings, and specialized components. Strategically positioned to meet growing water and wastewater infrastructure needs, we provide solution-based products for a wide range of markets under the ParkUSA, Geneva Pipe and Precast, Permalok®, and Northwest Pipe Company lines. Our diverse team is committed to quality and innovation while demonstrating our core values of accountability, commitment, and teamwork. We are headquartered in Vancouver, Washington, and have 13 manufacturing facilities across North America.

Our water infrastructure products are sold generally to installation contractors, who include our products in their bids to federal, state, and municipal agencies, privately-owned water companies, or developers for specific projects. We believe our sales are substantially driven by spending on urban growth and new water infrastructure with a recent trend towards spending on water infrastructure replacement, repair, and upgrade. Within the total range of products, our steel pipe tends to fit the larger-diameter, higher-pressure pipeline applications, while our precast concrete products mainly serve stormwater and sanitary sewer systems.

In October 2021 we acquired Park Environmental Equipment, LLC (ParkUSA), a precast concrete and steel fabrication-based company in Texas that develops and manufactures water, wastewater, and environmental solutions. Effective in the fourth quarter of 2021, as a result of the acquisition of ParkUSA, we revised our historical one segment position and identified the new operating segments, Engineered Steel Pressure Pipe (“SPP”) and Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems (“Precast”), to align with changes made in our internal management structure and our reporting structure of financial information used to assess performance and allocate resources. For detailed descriptions of these segments, see Note ~~12,~~15, “Segment Information” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q.

Demand for our Precast products is generally influenced by general economic conditions such as housing starts, population growth, interest rates, and rates of inflation. According to the United States Census Bureau, privately-owned housing starts in ~~June~~September 2022 were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.4 million, compared to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.6 million in June 2022, and the population of the United States is expected to increase by approximately 2 million people in 2022. Additionally, while recent and anticipated future increases in the federal funds rate by the Federal Reserve are expected to temper demand for housing, the immediate impacts have been muted by the demand for housing, stymied by recent labor and commodity shortages currently limiting the supply of new homes.

Our SPP projects are often planned for many years in advance, as we operate that business with a long-term time horizon for which the projects are sometimes part of 50‑year build-out plans. Long-term demand for water infrastructure projects in the United States appears strong. ~~However, in the near term, we expect that strained~~Even though recent demand for engineered steel pressure pipe has improved, a shift to a recessionary economy could strain governmental and water agency budgets and financing ~~along with increased manufacturing capacity from competition~~which could impact prospects for our business in the ~~business.~~medium term. Additionally, we have experienced effects of athe current labor shortage at certain manufacturing facilities, for which we are mitigating the impact through the use of overtime and third-party outsourcing as warranted. It is possible that a prolonged shortage of qualified, available workers could have an adverse effect on our business.

Purchased steel typically represents between 25% and 35% of cost of sales, and higher steel costs generally result in higher selling prices and revenue; however, volatile fluctuations in steel markets can affect our business. SPP contracts are generally quoted on a fixed-price basis, and volatile steel markets can result in selling prices that no longer correlate to the cost available at the time of steel purchase. Steel ~~prices~~markets have ~~been~~remained volatile ~~during~~through the first ~~half~~three quarters of 2022, with prices dropping significantly ~~during~~in the ~~first quarter from their peaks realized at the end of 2021, only to begin to rebound before continuing to drop by the end of the second~~third quarter. ~~These lower~~The reduced steel costs ~~from purchases in the first half of 2022 are beginning~~have begun and will continue to be realized in our financial results.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is considered to be largely responsible for increased fuel costs, increasing our delivery costs. While these costs are generally passed along to the customer, there can be no assurance that all of these increased costs will be recouped, which could be material until world economic forces stabilize. Freight costs represent approximately 5% of cost of sales of our SPP business, for which the risk is more significant due to the long lead times between when an SPP contract is entered and the product is shipped.

In the third quarter of 2022, we implemented our enterprise resource planning system at the ParkUSA manufacturing facilities. Due primarily to an underinvestment in systems preceding our acquisition, and vastly broader product offerings, this implementation has caused, and may continue to cause, disruption and inefficiencies in ParkUSA’s operations.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID‑19 a pandemic. The impacts of the COVID‑19 pandemic, and the resurgence of new COVID‑19 virus variants, on global and domestic economic conditions, including the impacts of labor and raw material shortages, the long-term potential to reduce or delay funding of municipal projects, and the continued disruptions to and volatility in the financial markets remain uncertain. While the COVID‑19 pandemic has caused various direct and indirect financial impacts associated with project bidding, execution, and product deliveries over the past couple of years, we remain unable to predict the ultimate impact that the COVID‑19 pandemic may have on our business, future results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID‑19 pandemic on all aspects of our business.

The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, certain financial information regarding costs and expenses expressed in dollars (in thousands) and as a percentage of total net sales.

Three and ~~Six~~Nine Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 Compared to Three and ~~Six~~Nine Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021

Net sales. Net sales increased ~~60.6%~~45.3% to ~~$118.5~~$123.0 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$73.8~~$84.6 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 and increased ~~55.9%~~52.0% to ~~$227.9~~$350.8 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$146.1~~$230.8 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021.

SPP net sales were ~~$77.1~~$83.7 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$58.7~~$69.4 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 and ~~$151.8~~$235.4 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$118.8~~$188.2 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. The ~~31%~~20.5% increase in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 was driven by a ~~35%~~17% increase in tons produced resulting from changes in project timing and a 3% increase in selling price per ton due to changes in product mix. The 25.1% increase in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the first nine months of 2021 was driven by a 37% increase in selling price per ton due to increased materials costs and changes in product mix, partially offset by a 3% decrease in tons produced resulting from changes in project timing. The 28% increase in the first six months of 2022 compared to the first six months of 2021 was driven by a 58% increase in selling price per ton due to increased materials costs and changes in product mix, partially offset by a 19%9% decrease in tons produced resulting from changes in project timing. Bidding activity, backlog, and production levels may vary significantly from period to period affecting sales volumes.

Precast net sales were ~~$41.4~~$39.3 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$15.1~~$15.2 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 and ~~$76.1~~$115.4 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$27.3~~$42.5 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. The ~~175%~~158.6% increase in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 was primarily due to the ParkUSA operations acquired in October 2021, which contributed ~~$24.2~~$20.5 million in net sales. In addition, the segment realized a ~~14%~~23.9% increase in net sales at the pre-existing precast operations due to a ~~54%~~49% increase in selling prices due to the high demand for our concrete products coupled with increased material costs, partially offset by a ~~26%~~17% decrease in volume shipped due to changes in product mix. The ~~179%~~171.4% increase in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021 was primarily due to the acquired ParkUSA operations, which contributed ~~$43.9~~$64.4 million in net sales. In addition, the segment realized ~~an 18%~~a 20.0% increase in net sales at the pre-existing precast operations due to a ~~44%~~46% increase in selling prices due to the high demand for our concrete products coupled with increased material costs, partially offset by an 18% decrease in volume shipped due to changes in product mix.

Gross profit. Gross profit increased ~~152.5%~~103.2% to ~~$24.1~~$25.1 million ~~(20.3%~~(20.4% of net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$9.5~~$12.4 million ~~(12.9%~~(14.6% of net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 and increased ~~112.2%~~108.6% to ~~$38.9~~$64.0 million ~~(17.1%~~(18.2% of net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$18.3~~$30.7 million ~~(12.5%~~(13.3% of net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021.

SPP gross profit increased ~~67.9%~~60.5% to ~~$11.1~~$14.2 million ~~(14.4%~~(17.0% of SPP net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$6.6~~$8.8 million ~~(11.3%~~(12.7% of SPP net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 and increased ~~32.9%~~43.7% to ~~$18.3~~$32.5 million ~~(12.1%~~(13.8% of SPP net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$13.8~~$22.6 million ~~(11.6%~~(12.0% of SPP net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. The increase in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021 was due to ~~changes~~increased production volume and product pricing, while the increase in the first nine months of 2022 compared to the first nine months of 2021 was due entirely to improved product ~~mix.~~pricing. SPP gross profit in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 was reduced, in part, as a result of a $2.0 million product liability settlement reserve recorded in the first quarter.

Precast gross profit increased ~~343.9%~~210.4% to ~~$13.0~~$10.9 million ~~(31.3%~~(27.8% of Precast net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$2.9~~$3.5 million ~~(19.4%~~(23.1% of Precast net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 and increased ~~352.7%~~290.6% to ~~$20.6~~$31.5 million ~~(27.0%~~(27.3% of Precast net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$4.5~~$8.1 million ~~(16.6%~~(19.0% of Precast net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. The increase was due to contributions from the ParkUSA operations, as well as improved pricing at the pre-existing precast operations.

Selling, general, and administrative expense. Selling, general, and administrative expense increased ~~59.8%~~91.5% to ~~$10.1~~$10.7 million ~~(8.5%~~(8.7% of net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$6.3~~$5.6 million ~~(8.6%~~(6.6% of net sales) in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 and increased ~~60.2%~~70.1% to ~~$19.5~~$30.1 million (8.6% of net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$12.2~~$17.7 million ~~(8.3%~~(7.7% of net sales) in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. The increase in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 was primarily due to the acquired ParkUSA operations, including ~~$1.8~~$1.3 million in higher compensation-related expense and $0.8 million in higher amortization expense. We also incurred ~~an additional $0.9~~$3.1 million in higher compensation-related expense, $0.2 million in higher travel expense, and $0.5 million in lower professional fees compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021. The increase in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021 was primarily due to the acquired ParkUSA operations, including ~~$3.1~~$4.4 million in higher compensation-related expense and ~~$1.5~~$2.4 million in higher amortization expense. We also incurred an additional ~~$1.8~~$4.9 million in higher compensation-related expense and $0.5 million in higher ~~professional fees~~travel expense compared to the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021.

Income taxes. Income tax expense was ~~$3.4~~$3.6 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 (an effective income tax rate of ~~26.1%~~26.3%) compared to ~~$0.8~~$1.9 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 (an effective income tax rate of ~~26.1%~~27.9%) and was ~~$4.8~~$8.3 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 (an effective income tax rate of 26.4%) compared to ~~$1.4~~$3.3 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021 (an effective income tax rate of ~~23.9%~~26.1%). The estimated effective income tax rates for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 and 2021 and the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 and 2021 were impacted by non-deductible permanent differences. The estimated effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2021 was primarily impacted by non-deductible permanent differences, while the estimated effective income tax rate for the first six months of 2021 was primarily impacted by the tax windfalls recognized upon the vesting of equity awards in the first quarter of 2021. The estimated effective income tax rate can change significantly depending on the relationship of permanent income tax differences and tax credits to estimated pre-tax income or loss and the changes in valuation allowances. Accordingly, the comparison of estimated effective income tax rates between periods is not meaningful in all situations.

Our principal sources of liquidity generally include operating cash flows and the Credit Agreement dated June 30, 2021 with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, including the initial sole lender, Wells Fargo (the “Lenders”), as amended by the Incremental Amendment dated October 22, 2021 and the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated April 29, 2022 (together, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). From time to time our long-term capital needs may be met through the issuance of long-term debt or additional equity. Our principal uses of liquidity generally include capital expenditures, working capital, organic growth initiatives, acquisitions, and debt service. Information regarding our cash flows for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 are presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows contained in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q, and are further discussed below. We are actively managing the business to maintain cash flow and believe we have liquidity to meet our anticipated funding requirements and other near-term obligations.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, our working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) was ~~$178.1~~$173.3 million compared to $164.1 million as of December 31, 2021. Cash and cash equivalents totaled ~~$3.5~~$3.7 million and $3.0 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Fluctuations in SPP working capital accounts result from timing differences between production, shipment, invoicing, and collection, as well as changes in levels of production and costs of materials. We typically have a relatively large investment in working capital, as we generally pay for materials, labor, and other production costs in the initial stages of a project, while payments from our customers are generally received after finished product is delivered. A portion of our revenues are recognized over time as the manufacturing process progresses; therefore, cash receipts typically occur subsequent to when revenue is recognized and the elapsed time between when revenue is recorded and when cash is received can be significant. As such, our payment cycle is a significantly shorter interval than our collection cycle, although the effect of this difference in the cycles may vary by project, and from period to period. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, Inventories and Accounts payable included ~~$10.0~~$4.1 million of steel for which we expect to settle a quality claim with the supplier.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had ~~$86.7~~$71.8 million of outstanding revolving loan borrowings, ~~$96.1~~$3.5 million of outstanding current debt, $95.0 million of operating lease liabilities, and ~~$2.8~~$2.7 million of finance lease liabilities. As of December 31, 2021, we had $86.8 million of outstanding revolving loan borrowings, $98.4 million of operating lease liabilities, and $2.2 million of finance lease liabilities.

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was ~~$10.2~~$25.5 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$5.1~~$(13.6) million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. Net income, adjusted for non-cash items, provided ~~$23.2~~$38.0 million of operating cash flow in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$12.9~~$21.0 million of operating cash flow in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. The net change in working capital used was ~~$13.0~~$12.5 million of operating cash flow in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$7.8~~$34.6 million of operating cash flow in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021.

Net cash used in investing activities was ~~$8.4~~$12.1 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$4.7~~$7.8 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. Capital expenditures were ~~$8.5~~$11.8 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$4.8~~$8.1 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021, which was primarily for standard capital replacement. We currently expect capital expenditures in 2022 to be approximately ~~$23~~$25 million to ~~$27~~$26 million, which includes approximately $9 million of investment in our new reinforced concrete pipe mill and the remainder primarily for standard capital replacement.

Net cash used in financing activities was ~~$1.2~~$12.7 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$15.1~~$13.3 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. Net ~~repayments~~borrowings (repayments) on ~~long-term debt~~the line of credit were $0$(14.9) million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2022 compared to ~~$13.8~~$2.2 million in the first ~~six~~nine months of 2021. Net borrowings (repayments) on other debt were $3.5 million in the first nine months of 2022 compared to $(13.8) million in the first nine months of 2021.

We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows expected to be generated by operations, and additional borrowing capacity under the Amended Credit Agreement and other loans will be adequate to fund our working capital, debt service, and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. To the extent necessary, we may also satisfy capital requirements through additional bank borrowings, senior notes, term notes, subordinated debt, and finance and operating leases, if such resources are available on satisfactory terms. We have from time to time evaluated and continue to evaluate opportunities for acquisitions and expansion. Any such transactions, if consummated, may necessitate additional bank borrowings or other sources of funding. As previously discussed, we acquired ParkUSA in October 2021 which was funded primarily by borrowings on the line of credit.

On November 3, 2020, our shelf registration statement on Form S‑3 (Registration No. 333‑249637) covering the potential future sale of up to $150 million of our equity and/or debt securities or combinations thereof, was declared effective by the SEC. This shelf registration statement, which replaced the shelf registration statement on Form S‑3 that expired on September 15, 2020, provides another potential source of capital, in addition to other alternatives already in place. We cannot be certain that funding will be available on favorable terms or available at all. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our shareholders may experience significant dilution. As of the date of this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q, we have not yet sold any securities under this registration statement, nor do we have an obligation to do so. Please refer to the factors discussed in Part I – Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Form 10‑K.

On September 2, 2022, we entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement (the “At-the-Market Offering”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”), pursuant to which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, having aggregate offering sales proceeds of up to $50,000,000 (the “Shares”) from time to time through Jefferies as our sales agent. We may sell the Shares in amounts and at times to be determined by us from time to time subject to the terms and conditions of the At-the-Market Offering, but we have no obligation to sell any of the Shares under the At-the-Market Offering. The Shares to be sold under the At-the-Market Offering, if any, will be offered and sold pursuant to our shelf registration statement on Form S‑3 discussed above, and the prospectus supplement dated September 2, 2022 filed by us. We will pay Jefferies a cash commission of up to 3.0% of gross proceeds from the sale of the Shares pursuant to the At-the-Market Offering. We have also agreed to provide Jefferies with customary indemnification and contribution rights. No proceeds were raised under the At-the-Market Offering during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The Amended Credit Agreement provides for a revolving loan, swingline loan, and letters of credit in the aggregate amount of up to $125 million (“Revolver Commitment”). The Amended Credit Agreement will expire, and all obligations outstanding will mature, on June 30, 2024. We may prepay outstanding amounts in our discretion without penalty at any time, subject to applicable notice requirements. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 under the Amended Credit Agreement, we had ~~$86.7~~$71.8 million of outstanding revolving loan borrowings, $1.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, and additional borrowing capacity of ~~approximately $37~~$52 million. Based on our business plan and forecasts of operations, we expect to have sufficient credit available to support our operations for at least the next twelve months.

Revolving loans under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at rates related to, at our option and subject to the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement, either: (i) Base Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the Applicable Margin; or (iii) Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) plus the Applicable Margin. The “Applicable Margin” is 1.75% to 2.35%, depending on our Consolidated Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) and the interest rate option chosen. Interest on outstanding revolving loans is payable ~~quarterly.~~monthly. Swingline loans under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The Amended Credit Agreement requires the payment of a commitment fee of between 0.30% and 0.40%, based on the amount by which the Revolver Commitment exceeds the average daily balance of outstanding borrowings (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). Such fee is payable ~~quarterly~~monthly in arrears. We are also obligated to pay additional fees customary for credit facilities of this size and type.

The letters of credit outstanding as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 relate to workers’ compensation insurance. Based on the nature of these arrangements and our historical experience, we do not expect to make any material payments under these arrangements.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants, events of default, and indemnification provisions in favor of the Lenders. The negative covenants include restrictions regarding the incurrence of liens and indebtedness, annual capital expenditures, certain investments, acquisitions, and dispositions, and other matters, all subject to certain exceptions. The Amended Credit Agreement requires us to regularly provide financial information to Wells Fargo and to maintain a consolidated senior leverage ratio no greater than 2.50 to 1.00 (subject to certain exceptions) and a minimum consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) of at least $31.5 million for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended. Pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, we have also agreed that we will not sell, assign, or otherwise dispose or encumber, any of our owned real property. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with our financial covenants as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Based on our business plan and forecasts of operations, we believe we will remain in compliance with our financial covenants for the next twelve months.

Our obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by a senior security interest in substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets.

For a description of recent accounting pronouncements affecting our company, including the dates of adoption and estimated effects on financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, see Note ~~13,~~16, “Recent Accounting and Reporting Developments” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate all of our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, business combinations, inventories, property and equipment, including depreciation and valuation, goodwill, intangible assets, including amortization, share-based compensation, allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, and litigation and other contingencies. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 as compared to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in our 2021 Form 10‑K.

For a discussion of our market risk associated with commodity prices and foreign currencies, see Part II – Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of our 2021 Form 10‑K.

Our debt bears interest at both fixed and variable rates. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had ~~$86.7~~$75.3 million and $86.8 million, respectively, of variable-rate debt outstanding. We have managed a portion of our variable-rate debt with an interest rate swap agreement to effectively convert a portion of our variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. The principal objective of this contract is to reduce the variability of the cash flows in interest payments associated with a portion of our variable-rate debt, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest payment cash flows. We have elected to apply the hedge accounting rules in accordance with authoritative guidance for this contract.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the total notional amount of the interest rate swap was ~~$36.7~~$31.7 million, which will amortize ratably on a monthly basis to zero by the April 2024 maturity date. We receive floating interest payments monthly based on the SOFR and pay a fixed rate of 1.941% to the counterparty.

Assuming average interest rates and borrowings on variable-rate debt, a hypothetical 1.0%, or 100 basis points, change in interest rates would not have a material impact on our interest expense.

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a‑15(e) and 15d‑15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. As a result of the assessment, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

As discussed in Note 2, “Business Combination” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q, we completed the acquisition of 100% of Park Environmental Equipment, LLC (“ParkUSA”) on October 5, 2021. As part of our post-closing integration activities, we are engaged in the process of assessing the internal controls of ParkUSA. We have begun to integrate policies, processes, people, technology, and operations for the post-acquisition combined company, and we will continue to evaluate the impact of any related changes to internal control over financial reporting. As permitted for newly acquired businesses by interpretive guidance issued by the staff of the SEC, management has excluded the internal control over financial reporting of ParkUSA from the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. We have reported the operating results of ParkUSA in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows from the acquisition date through ~~June~~September 30, 2022. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, total assets related to ParkUSA represented approximately ~~15.7%~~16.7% of our total assets, recorded on a preliminary basis as the measurement period for the business combination remained open as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Revenues from ParkUSA represented approximately ~~19.3%~~18.4% of our total consolidated revenues for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Except for changes in internal controls that we have made related to the integration of ParkUSA into the post-acquisition combined company, the most noteworthy of which are those controls impacted by the implementation of our enterprise resource planning system, there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We are party to a variety of legal actions arising out of the ordinary course of business. Plaintiffs occasionally seek punitive or exemplary damages. We do not believe that such normal and routine litigation will have a material impact on our consolidated financial results. We are also involved in other kinds of legal actions, some of which assert or may assert claims or seek to impose fines, penalties, and other costs in substantial amounts. See Note 7,10, “Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I – Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q.

In addition to the other information set forth in this 2022 Q2Q3 Form 10‑Q, the factors discussed in Part I – Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2021 Form 10‑K and any subsequently filed quarterly reports on Form 10‑Q could materially affect our business, financial condition, or operating results. The risks described in our 2021 Form 10‑K and subsequent Form 10‑Q’s are not the only risks facing us. There are additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, that may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results.
