AMERICAN ELECTRIC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1. Overview and Basis of Presentation

American Electric Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “AETI”, “our”, “us” or “we”) consists of American Electric Technologies, Inc., which owns 100% of M&I Electric Industries, Inc., including its wholly-owned subsidiary, South Coast Electric Systems, LLC (“SCES”) and M&I Electric Brazil Sistemas e Servicios em Energia LTDA (“M&I Brazil”). The operations of AETI consisted of our Brazilian subsidiary, our interest in our Chinese joint venture and our corporate office in Bellaire, Texas.

As previously announced, on July 26, 2019, the proposed share exchange transaction (the “Transaction”) with Stabilis Energy LLC (“Stabilis”) and its subsidiaries was completed.  The Transaction and its related proposals, which included a company name change and a reverse stock split, were approved by our stockholders at a Special Meeting of Stockholders on July 17, 2019. On July 29, 2019, the company began operating under the name Stabilis Energy, Inc. and our common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “SLNG”.  In addition, the company’s shares outstanding now reflect a one-for-eight reverse split. Unless otherwise noted, any share or per share amounts in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes give retroactive effect to the reverse stock split. For further information regarding this Transaction, see Note 11.

These financial statements reflect AETI’s operations prior to the Transaction because the Transaction was consummated after the period covered by these financial statements. Accordingly, the historical financial information included in this Form 10-Q is that of AETI prior to the Transaction. All subsequent quarterly and annual filings will present the current and historical financial statements of Stabilis’ operations post-transaction. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of American Electric Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“AETI”, “the Company”, “our”, “we”, “us”)AETI have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information and include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair financial statement presentation.All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a fullthe entire fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in theWe believe that these financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have beencontain all adjustments necessary so that they are not misleading. These unaudited condensed or omitted. Thefinancial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,2018, which was filed on March 30, 2017. All dollarApril 16, 2019.


2. Summary of Certain Significant Accounting Policies

For a detailed list of our critical accounting policies, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed on April 16, 2019.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts disclosedreported in the footnotes are statedcondensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. The most significant estimates used in thousands.

2. Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per shareour condensed consolidated financial statements affect revenue recognition and estimated cost recognition on our customer contracts and income taxes. The amounts recorded for warranties, legal, income taxes, impairment of long-lived assets (when applicable) and other contingent liabilities require judgments regarding the amount of expenses that will ultimately be incurred. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, as well as the specific circumstances surrounding these contingent liabilities, in evaluating the amount of liability that should be recorded. Additionally, the recognition of deferred tax assets requires estimates related to future income and other assumptions regarding timing and future profitability because the ultimate realization of net deferred tax assets is computed by dividing netdependent on the generation of future taxable income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 .

Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, by the sum of (1) the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, (2) the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of convertible instruments and (3) the dilutive effect of the exercise of stock options and other stock units toperiods in which temporary differences become deductible. Estimates routinely change as new events occur, additional information becomes available or operating environments change. Actual results may differ from our common stock.prior estimates.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, common stock equivalents from convertible instruments, stock options and other stock units have been excluded from the calculation of weighted average diluted shares because all such instruments were anti-dilutive.                       

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted weighted average common shares.

3. Recently IssuedNew Accounting PronouncementsStandards

In May 2014,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU No. 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU No. 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which delayed the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year (effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017). AETI is evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 and currently expects that the standard will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements other than enhanced disclosures related to the disaggregation of revenues from contracts with customers, the Company’s performance obligations and any significant judgments. AETI intends to adopt the new standard using the modified retrospective method at the date of adoption.  

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11. Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which is intended to converge U.S. GAAP on this topic with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). ASU No. 2015-11 focuses on the premeasurement of inventory measured using any method other than LIFO, for example, average cost. Inventory within the scope of ASU No. 2015-11 is required to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. When evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is lower than its cost, the difference shall be recognized as a loss in earnings in the period in which it occurs. That loss may be required, for example, due to damage, physical deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price levels, or other causes. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU No. 2015-11 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,

8


2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU No. 2015-11 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU No. 2016-01 requires (1) an entity to measure equity instruments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) entities to use the exit price notation when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (3) separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset; and (4) elimination of the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. ASU No. 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the future impact of ASU No. 2016-01 on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which requires lessees to  recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under ASU No. 2016-02, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 with early application permitted. Lessees and lessors must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases expiring before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. Management is currently evaluatingASU 2016-02 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements; ASU No. 2018-20, Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors; and ASU No. 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842) - Codification Improvements. ASU No. 2018-11 provides an additional transition method allowing entities to initially apply the future impactnew lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.

We adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method in ASU No. 2018-11. Under this method, we have not adjusted our comparative period financial statements for the effects of the new standard or made the new, expanded required disclosures for periods prior to the effective date. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance in ASU 2016-02 to not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs. We also elected the practical expedient not to separate the non-lease components of a contract from the lease component to which they relate.

The adoption of the new lease standard resulted in the recognition of lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets of $0.2 million, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 for real and personal property operating leases. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’sour consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, to clarify two aspects of Topic 606: (i) identifying performance obligations; and (ii) the licensing implementation guidance. The amendments do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for ASU No. 2016-10 are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for ASU No. 2014-09. Management is currently evaluating the future impact of ASU No. 2016-10 on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. ASU No. 2016-12 provides narrow-scope improvements to the guidance on collectability, noncash consideration, and completed contracts at transition. The amendment also provides a practical expedient for contract modifications at transition and an accounting policy election related to the presentation of sales taxes and other similar taxes collected from customers and are expected to reduce the judgment necessary to comply with Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for ASU No. 2016-12 are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for ASU No. 2014-09. Management is currently evaluating the future impact of ASU No. 2016-12 on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU No. 2016-13 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current U.S. GAAP and, instead, requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. In addition, ASU No. 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early application permitted in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The amendments of ASU No. 2016-13 should be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective.

ASU No. 2016-15 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2016-15 to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures because it on affects presentation of specific items within the cash flow statement.

In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU No. 2016-20 allows entities not to make quantitative disclosures about remaining performance obligations in certain cases and require entities that use any of the new or previously existing optional exemptions to expand their qualitative disclosures. The amendment also clarifies narrow aspects of ASC 606, including contract modifications, contract costs, and the balance sheet classification of items as contract assets versus receivables, or corrects unintended application of the guidance. The effective date and transition requirements for ASU No. 2016-20 are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for ASU

3. Revenue Recognition


Revenue is measured as consideration specified in a contract with a customer and disclosures.excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Amounts are billed upon completion of service or transfer of a product and are generally due within 30 days.

In January 2017,Revenues from contracts with customers are disaggregated into the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-03, Accounting Changesfollowing primary sources: services and Error Corrections (Topic 250)products.

Service revenue is generated from time and Investments – Equity Methodmaterial projects and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcements atconsulting services. The Company generally establishes a master services agreement with each customer and provides associated services on a work order basis, generally by the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF Meetings.hour for services performed. The amendments in this update relate to disclosuresmajority of the impactCompany’s contracts with customers are short-term in nature and are recognized as the services are performed, as the transfer of recently issued accounting standards. The SEC staff’s view that a registrant should evaluate ASC updates that have not yet been adoptedcontrol to determine the appropriate financial disclosures aboutcustomer and the potential material effectsCompany’s right to payment corresponds directly to the services performed to date, at all times throughout completion of the updatescontract.

Product revenue is generated from the resale of electrical and instrumentation equipment. Product contracts are established by agreeing on a sales price or transaction price for the related item. Payment terms for product contracts are generally thirty days from the receipt of the invoice. Product revenue is recognized upon delivery of the related item to the customer, at which point the customer controls the product and the Company has an unconditional right to payment.

Additionally, each month end the Company records unbilled revenue (a contract asset) based upon completed and partially completed performance obligations through month end providing the Company an unconditional right to payment for the services performed or products sold for the related period. The Company has no other material contract assets or liabilities and contract costs.

Taxes assessed by a registrant does not know or cannot reasonably estimategovernmental authority that are directly imposed on revenue-producing transactions between the impact of an update, then in addition to making a statement to that effect,Company and its customers, such as sales, use and value-added taxes, are excluded from revenue.

The table below presents revenue disaggregated by source, for the registrant should consider additional qualitative financial statement disclosures to assist the reader in assessing the significance of the impact. The staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies expected to be applied compared to current accounting policies. Also, the registrant should describe the status of its process to implement the new standardsthree and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. The amendments specifically addressed recent ASC amendments to ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, ASU No. 2016-02, Leases,six months ended June 30, 2019 and ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, although, the amendments apply to any subsequent amendments to guidance in the ASC.

10. Discontinued Operations

On August 12, 2018 the Company sold substantially all of the U.S. business assets and operations of M&I Electric (“M&I) to redeema newly formed subsidiary of Myers Power Products, Inc. (“Buyer”). The newly formed subsidiary was established by the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a redemption price equalBuyer to


acquire the assets of M&I pursuant to the lessorAsset Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”) between the Company and the Buyer. The Transaction included a total purchase price of (i)approximately $18.5 million based on $10.1 million of cash consideration plus debt assumed by the liquidation preference per share (initially $5.00 per share, subjectbuyer of $8.4 million.

The Company and the Buyer of M&I Electric currently have a significant disagreement with regard to the working capital adjustment calculation and the Company has not received documentation sufficient to support the Buyer’s position. As such, no adjustments have been made in determining the gain on the sale of assets reported at December 31, 2018.  Any purchase price adjustment related to the conclusive determination of the net working capital adjustment, if any, will be reflected at the date of such determination. Any legal fees incurred related to this disagreement will be expensed as incurred.

11. Subsequent Events

On July 26, 2019, the share exchange transaction (the “Transaction”) with Stabilis Energy LLC (“Stabilis”) and its subsidiaries was completed.  The Transaction and its related proposals, including a company name change and a reverse stock split, were approved by our stockholders at a Special Meeting of Stockholders on July 17, 2019. On July 29, 2019, the company began operating under the Note Purchase Agreement remain outstanding, the Company may, at its sole discretion, declare, authorize or pay dividends in cashname Stabilis Energy, Inc. and our common stock began trading on the Preferred Stock so long as no event of default existsNasdaq Capital Market under the Term Note or wouldticker symbol “SLNG”.  In addition, the company’s shares outstanding will reflect a one-for-eight reverse split.

As a result therefrom. The Holder also agreed that it shall not exercise its rights to require the Company to redeem any of the Preferred Stock duringreverse stock split, every eight shares of American Electric common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Standstill Period. Followingreverse stock split were combined into one share of Stabilis Energy, Inc. common stock. No fractional shares were issued. In lieu of fractional shares, cash was issued based on the expirationclosing price of American Electric common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on July 26, 2019. Unless otherwise noted, any share or per share amounts in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes give retroactive effect to both the transaction and the reverse stock split.

Stabilis has safely delivered over 200 million gallons of LNG through more than 20,000 truck deliveries during its 15-year operating history, which it believes makes it one of the largest and most experienced small-scale LNG providers in North America. Stabilis’ customers use LNG as a fuel source in a variety of applications in the industrial, energy, mining, utilities and pipelines, commercial, and high horsepower transportation markets. Stabilis’ customers use LNG as an


alternative to traditional fuel sources, such as distillate fuel oil and propane, to lower fuel costs and reduce harmful environmental emissions.  Stabilis’ customers also use LNG as a “virtual pipeline” solution when natural gas pipelines are not available or are curtailed.  Stabilis is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

On August 5, 2019, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with Chart Energy & Chemicals, Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of Chart Industries, Inc. for the Holder (the “Repricing Agreement”) on August 1, 2017.

    In order to comply with the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, the Repricing Agreement prohibits the issuance of more than 19.99% of our common stock or voting power outstanding to the Holder as of the date of the Repricing Agreement without stockholder approval. The Company has agreed to seek the approval of its stockholders as soon as practicable. In the event that stockholder approval is received and the Holder were to convert all of its Series A Preferred Stock into common stock and exercised all of its Common Stock Purchase Warrants for cash, the Holder would be issued more than 19.99% of our common stock and voting power as of the date of the Repricing Agreement.in Stabilis Energy, Inc.

First, in Brazil we have a wholly-owned subsidiary, M&I Electric Brazil, withhas offices in Rio de Janeiro, Macaé and Belo Horizonte to serve this market. The M&I Electric Brazil team focuses primarily onthe local market and provides services and products for the oil and gas, marine vessel, power generation and broad industrial market segments in Brazil.

Second,China


The Company holds a 40% interest in certain international markets, we sell through foreign sales agents that we have appointed in energy regions around the world. Many of these international partners also provide local service and support for our products in those overseas markets.

Finally, where local market conditions dictate, we have formed joint venture operations with local partners in markets such as China, where we can partner with the primary end-customer in that market, or there are local content requirements or a competitive advantage to using local manufacturing.

We currently have interests in two joint ventures outside of the U. S. which are accounted for on the equity method.

BOMAY Electric Industries Company, Ltd. (“BOMAY”), which builds electrical systems for sale in which the Company holds a 40% interest,China.  The majority partner in this foreign joint venture is Baoji Oilfield Machinery Co., Ltd.

We also have minority interests in foreign joint ventures which have facilities in Xian, China and Singapore.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We have adopted various critical accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results.

Certain accounting policies involve significant estimates and assumptions by us that have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition or operating performance. Management believes the following critical accounting policies reflect its most significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities”, nor do we have any “variable interest entities”.

Inventories – Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with material value determined using an average cost method. Inventory costs for work-in-process include direct material, direct labor, production overhead and outside services. Indirect overhead is apportioned to work-in-process based on direct labor incurred.

Allowance for Obsolete and Slow-Moving Inventory – The Company regularly reviews the value of inventory on hand using specific aging categories, and records a provision for obsolete and slow-moving inventory based on historical usage and estimated future usage. As actual future demand or market conditions may vary from those projected, adjustments to our inventory

17


reserve may be required. Based on this assessment at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, management believes the inventory reserve is adequate.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. The estimate is based on management’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and includes consideration for credit worthiness and the financial condition of those specific customers. The Company also reviews historical experience with the customer, the general economic environment and the aging of receivables. The Company records an allowance to reduce receivables to the amount that is reasonably believed to be collectible. Based on this assessment at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate.

Revenue Recognition – The Company reports earnings from fixed-price and modified fixed-price long-term contracts on the percentage-of-completion method.  Earnings are accrued based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs. Costs include direct material, direct labor, and job related overhead.  However,account for our manufacturing activities we have determined that labor incurred, rather than total costs incurred, provides an improved measure of percentage-of-completion. For contracts with anticipated losses, estimated losses are charged to operationsinterest in the period such losses are determined. A contract is considered complete when all costs, except insignificant items, have been incurred and the project has been accepted by the customer. Revenue from non-time and material jobs of a short-term nature (typically less than one month) is recognized on the completed-contract method after considering the attributes of such contracts. This method is used because these contracts are typically completed in a short period of time and the financial position and results of operations do not vary materially from those which would result from use of the percentage-of-completion method. The asset, “Work-in-process,” which is included in inventories, represents the cost of labor, material, and overhead on jobs accounted for under the completed-contract method. For contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method, the asset, “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts,” represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed and the liability, “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts,” represents billings in excess of revenue recognized.

Foreign Currency Gains and Losses – Foreign currency translations are included as a separate component of comprehensive income. The Company has determined the local currency of its foreign joint ventures and foreign subsidiary, M&I Brazil, to be the functional currency. In accordance with ASC 830, the assets and liabilities of the foreign equity investees and M&I Brazil, denominated in foreign currency, are translated into United States dollars at exchange rates in effect at the consolidated balance sheet date and net sales and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Related translation adjustments are reported as comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.

Federal Income Taxes – The liability method is used in accounting for federal income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Our ability to realize the deferred tax assets are evaluated annually and a valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not give rise to future benefits in the Company’s tax returns.

Contingencies – The Company records an estimated loss from a loss contingency when information indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Contingencies are often resolved over long time periods, are based on unique facts and circumstances, and are inherently uncertain. The Company regularly evaluates the current information that is available to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted or other disclosures related to contingencies are required. The ultimate resolution of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, is not likely to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

During the quarter, the Company's business operations in Houston and Beaumont Texas were adversely impacted by Hurricane Harvey. Although the company’s facilities did not sustain any damage, operations were temporarily idled, delaying the schedules of customer projects resulting in a $2.5 million revenue impact. The Company maintains business interruption insurance and has filed a business interruption claim. It is anticipated that any proceeds resulting from this business interruption claim would be recorded no earlier than Q4 2017.

Equity Income from Foreign Joint Ventures’ Operations – The Company accounts for its investments in foreign joint ventures’BOMAY using the equity method. Under the equity method, the Company records its pro-rata share of foreign joint ventures’ income or losses and adjusts the basis of its investment accordingly. Dividends received from the joint ventures, if any, are recorded as reductions to the investment balance.

Carrying Value of Joint Venture Investments – The Company reviews its equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable or the inability of the investee to sustain an earnings capacity that would justify the carrying amount of the investment. Based on the most recent review at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, management believes the carrying value of investments in foreign joint ventures is recoverable.

Business Outlook

Although the global energy market experienced a significant decline in 2015 and 2016 due to reduced oil and gas prices, the Company believes it has several potential areas of opportunity heading into 2018.

First, the Company believes the availability of low cost natural gas in the United States is a big growth driver. Environmental and political pressure on utilities to move away from coal-fired power generation plants to natural gas based power plants will continue, enabling a strong market opportunity for new power plant projects for the Company. Low cost natural gas also creates opportunities in the midstream and downstream oil and gas market, where pipelines, gas processing plants, storage terminals and other infrastructure enable increased petrochem and LNG export facilities to begin production.  

Second, the Company sees continuing opportunities for its IntelliSafe™ medium voltage arc-resistant switchgear. Designed for the downstream oil and gas and the power generation and distribution sectors, IntelliSafe enables the Company to differentiate on safety for these new critical customer projects.

Next, the Company believes that the recent oil price stability creates opportunities for the company to grow its land and offshore drilling and production business for both products and services.  

Internationally, the Company believes our global energy markets in China will remain flat at 2017 levels into 2018. There is still uncertainty in the Brazil market as the political and economic challenges facing Brazil continue to slow energy investments.

The Company ended the quarter with a backlog of $23.53 million, which is an increase of approximately $0.86 million from the end of the second quarter and an increase of $10.03 million from December 31, 2016. We closely monitor our backlog and order activity and continue to adjust our cost structure and expenditures as conditions require. This backlog will be recognized in revenue during the remainder of 2017 and 2018.

The Company continues to review its business and depending on cash needs may raise cash in the form of debt, equity, or a combination of both, subject to lender approval. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital can be obtained or that it can be obtained at terms that are favorable to us and our existing stockholders.

Non-U.S GAAP Financial Measures

A non-U.S. GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that purports to measure historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2016 filed on March 30, 2017 for a more in-depth

discussion of this indicator, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). Management believes it is useful in evaluating operating performance.

Non-U.S. GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Notes Payable

On March 23, 2017Uses and Sources of Liquidity

As of June 30, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.0 million and outstanding debt in Brazil totaling $0.3 million.

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of our businesses, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. We have incurred losses and experienced negative operating cash flows for the past several years, and accordingly, the Company entered intohas taken a $7.00 million Senior Secured Term Note withnumber of actions to continue to support its operations and meet its obligations.

In 2018, we concluded the sale of our U.S. operations to a third-party lender. The Note is payablesubsidiary of Myers Power Products, Inc. We expect to continue to optimize our international operations including our service business in monthly interest only payments in arrears at a fixed rate of 11.5%. Principal of $0.50 million was paid on June 30, 2017 with the balance due March 23, 2021.

The Company continues to monitor its liquidity position closely and depending on the business needs may raise cash in the form of debt, equity or a combination of both, subject to lender approval. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital can be obtained or that it can be obtained at terms that are favorable to usBrazil and our existing stockholders.joint venture operation in China.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

See Note 2 to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report for information on new accounting standards.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The increase is primarily attributablediscussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to $0.97 million in net proceedsmake estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from the issuance of debt.those estimates.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk

The markets in which we participate are capital intensive and cyclical in nature. The volatility in customer demand in several of these markets is greatly driven by the change in the price of oil and gas. These factors influence the release of new capital projects by our customers, which are traditionally awarded in competitive bid situations. Coordination of project start dates is matched to the customer requirements and projects may take a number of months to complete. Schedulescomplete; schedules also may change during the course of any particular project. For more information please see Item 2 of the Management Discussion and Analysis – Business Outlook.

Liquidity Risk

Our inability to borrow additional funds could negatively impact future working capital, capital expenditures, and acquisitions in addition to fulfilling our obligations and operating the business. While we would seek alternative funding sources through both debt and equity raises, there is no assurance that additional capital can be obtained or that it can be obtained at terms that are favorable to us and our existing stockholders.

As of September 30, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.10 million and total outstanding debt of $6.37 million. The Company had no availability for additional borrowings under our credit agreements. In the event that the Company fails to meet covenants in the future, the Company may not be able to obtain the necessary waivers or amendments to remain in compliance with the Purchase Agreement and the Purchaser may declare a default and cause all of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness under the Purchase Agreement to become immediately due and payable.

Interest Rate Risk

Our interest rate sensitive items do not subject us to material risk exposures. Our senior secured term Note has a fixed interest rate of 11.50%.

Foreign Currency Transaction Risk

The Company operatesWe operate a subsidiary in Brazil and maintainsmaintain an equity method investmentsinvestment in its Singapore andour Chinese joint ventures, MIEFE and BOMAY, respectively.venture, BOMAY. The functional currencies of the BrazilBrazilian subsidiary and the joint venturesventure are the Brazilian Real Singapore Dollar and the Chinese Yuan, respectively.Yuan. Investments are translated into United States Dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of each quarterly reporting period. The resulting translation adjustment has been an accumulated loss of $0.3 million and is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income,loss, net of tax,taxes, in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Insheet at June 30, 2019.

As of June 30, 2019, we had a non-U.S. dollar denominated working capital balance of approximately $0.7 million. An adverse change of 10% in the current nine months, this item increased from $0.00 million at December 31, 2016 to $0.27 million at September 30, 2017 due principally to the strengthening of the Brazilian Real and the Chinese Yuan versus the United States Dollar.

Other than the aforementioned items, we do not believe we are exposed to significantunderlying foreign currency exchange risk because most ofrate would reduce our net sales and purchases are denominated in United States Dollars.working capital balance by approximately $70,000.

Commodity Price Risk

We are subject to commodity pricemarket risk from fluctuating market prices of certain raw materials. While such materials are typically available from numerous suppliers, commodity raw materials are subject to price fluctuations. We endeavor to recoup these price increases from our customers on an individual contract basis to avoid operating margin erosion. Although historically we have not entered into any contracts to hedge commodity risk, we may do so in the future. Commodity price changes can have a material impact on our prospective earnings and cash flows. Copper, steel and aluminum represent a significant element of our material cost. Significant increases in the prices of these materials could reduce our estimated operating margins if we are unable to recover such increases from our customers.

With the participation of our management, including our PrincipalChief Executive Officer and our Principal AccountingChief Financial Officer, ofmanagement evaluated the effectiveness of our 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”)) as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019.  Based on thistheir evaluation, our Principal Executive Officerprincipal executive officer and Principal Accounting Officerprincipal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in providing reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019 solely because of the existence of the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting described below.

Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In connection with its evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2018, management identified the following deficiencies which collectively represent a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting:

In connection with the sale of the U.S. assets of our M&I Electric Industries in the third quarter of 2018, the majority of our accounting employees and systems transferred to the purchaser of the assets.


In December 2018, our Chief Financial Officer announced his resignation.

As a result of the above, we determined that the Company’s accounting personnel was reduced to a level that did not provide for sufficient segregation of duties, oversight of work performed and compensating controls in the Company’s accounting department.  While these issues did not result in any material misstatements on our consolidated financial statements, they did collectively represent a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

Remediation Process

Management is in the process of remediating the material weakness and has implemented additional controls, including:

Hiring additional accounting personnel to provide additional supervision, approval and review of accounting transactions and perform supervisory and oversight functions.

At the conclusion of the share exchange, we now have a full complement of accounting staff under the leadership of an experienced Chief Financial Officer which we believe will remediate the material weakness described above.

While we believe the remediation measures described above will remediate this material weakness going forward, the implementation of these controls is ongoing, and as we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to address this material weakness or determine to modify the remediation steps described above.

We expect the remediation and testing of the additional controls noted above to be completed by the end of 2019 and believe the remediation measures will strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weakness identified.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, there were no changes in our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting that occurred duringother than the quarter ended September 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likelycontrols to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.address the material weakness identified above.
