Charah Solutions, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Charah Solutions,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) was formed as a Delaware corporation in January 2018 and did not conduct any material business operations prior to the reorganization transactions described below other than certain activities related to the initial public offering (the “IPO”), which was completed on June 18, 2018. Charah Solutions is a holding company, the sole material assets of which consist of membership interests in Charah Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Charah Management”), and Allied Power Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Allied Power Holdings”). Through the Company’s ownership of Charah Management and Allied Power Holdings, the Company owns the outstanding equity interests in Charah, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“Charah”), and Allied Power Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Allied”), the subsidiaries through which Charah Solutions operates its businesses. The historical financial data presented herein as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and for the periods after the June 18, 2018 corporate reorganization described below is that of Charah and Allied on a consolidated basis, and is on a combined basis for the periods prior to the June 18, 2018 corporate reorganization.

On June 18, 2018, pursuant to the terms of the reorganization transactions completed in connection with the IPO, (i) (a) Charah Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Charah Holdings”) owned by Bernhard Capital Partners Management, LP and certain related affiliates (“BCP”), contributed all of its interests in Charah Management and Allied Power Holdings to the Company in exchange for 17,514,745 shares of common stock, (b) CEP Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation owned by Charles E. Price and certain affiliates, contributed all of its interests in Charah Management and Allied Power Holdings to the Company in exchange for 4,605,465 shares of common stock, (c) Charah Management Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Charah Management Holdings”), contributed all of its interests in Charah Management and Allied Power Holdings to the Company in exchange for 907,113 shares of common stock and (d) Allied Management Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Allied Management Holdings”), contributed all of its interests in Charah Management and Allied Power Holdings to the Company in exchange for 409,075 shares of common stock; (ii) each of Charah Management Holdings and Allied Management Holdings distributed the shares of common stock received by them pursuant to clause (i) above to their respective members in accordance with the respective terms of their limited liability company agreements; and (iii) Charah Holdings distributed a portion of the shares of common stock it received in clause (i) above to certain direct and indirect blocker entities which ultimately merged into the Company, with the Company surviving, and affiliates of BCP received shares of common stock as consideration in the mergers.

The Company is a leading provider of mission-critical environmental and maintenance services to the power generation industry, enabling our customers to address challenges related to the remediation of ash ponds and landfills at open and closed power plant sites while continuously operating and providing necessary electric power to communities nationwide. We offer a suite of coal ash management and recycling, environmental remediation and outage maintenance services. The Company also designs and implements solutions for complex environmental projects (such as coal ash pond closures) and facilitates coal ash recycling through byproduct sales and other beneficial use services. The Company has corporate offices in Kentucky, Louisiana and North Carolina, and principally operates in the eastern and mid-central United States.

Under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”), the Company meets the definition of an “emerging growth company,” which allows the Company to have an extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act. The Company intends to take advantage of all of the reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under Section 107 of the JOBS Act until the Company is no longer an emerging growth company. Among other things, we are not required to provide an auditor attestation report on the assessment of the internal control over financial reporting under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and our disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation may be reduced. We may take advantage of these provisions until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the IPO, or December 31, 2023. However, if certain events occur prior to the end of such five-year period, including if we become a “large accelerated filer,” our annual gross revenue exceeds $1.07 billion or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt in any three-year period, we will cease to be an emerging growth company prior to the end of such five-year period.

The Company’s fiscal year ends December 31. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements include the assets, liabilities, stockholders’ and members’ equity, and results of operations of the Company and its consolidated and combined subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, which consist of normal recurring adjustments. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated and combined financial statements and notes thereto included in theour Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The unaudited pro forma income information gives effect to the corporate reorganization that occurred in connection with the closing of the IPO and the resulting legal entity of Charah Solutions, which is incorporated as a “C” Corporation.corporation. Prior to the corporate reorganization, the holding companies for Charah and Allied were limited liability companies and generally not subject to income taxes. The pro forma net income, therefore, includes an adjustment for income tax expense as if the holding companies for Charah and Allied had been “C” Corporationscorporations for all periods presented at an assumed combined federal, state and local effective income tax rate of 25% for the periods from January 1, 2018 through June 17, 2018, plus the actual tax expense for the periods after June 18, 2018. These rates approximate the calculated statutory tax rate for each period.

To assess the impact of this ASU, we utilized internal resources to lead the implementation effort and supplemented them with external resources. The Company’s adoption activities were performed over three phases: (i) assessment, (ii) design and (iii) implementation using a cross-functional team that included accounting, operational and information technology personnel.

Based on our work to date, we believe we have identified all material contract types, revenuesrevenue and costs that may be impacted by implementing ASC Topic 606. Generally, the Company believes the majority of its contracts will have similar

performance obligations under ASC Topic 606 as compared with the units of account previously identified. We have identified certain contracts where the timing of revenue recognition will change under ASC Topic 606. Prior to the adoption of ASC Topic 606, revenue recorded for certain contracts with fluctuating rates per unit matched the amount that was billed to the customer. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, for contracts with fluctuating rates per unit that are not directly related to changes in the Company’s effort to perform under the contract, the Company will recognize revenue based on the stand-alone selling price per unit, calculated as the average rate per unit over the term of those contractual rates. This accounting treatment will at times create a contract asset or liability for the difference between the revenue recognized and the amount billable/billed to the customer.

As a calendar year-end emerging growth company that has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards, we are required to adopt the new revenue standard for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2019, and for interim periods within annual periods beginning on January 1, 2020. Accordingly, the interim periods within the year ending December 31, 2019 will be reported under the existing revenue standard, ASC Topic 605, while the annual period for the year ending December 31, 2019 will be reported under ASC Topic 606. For the annual period for the year ending December 31, 2019, we will apply the requirements of ASC Topic 606 to all contracts using the modified retrospective with cumulative effect transition method. Accordingly, we will recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for the year ending December 31, 2019.

In November 2018, the $15,000 to be paid over time was reduced by $3,300. The present value of the future payments using a discount rate of 2.50% was determined to be $11,014. The Company expects the future payments to occur in 2020 and beyond. The allocation of the purchase price for the acquisition is as follows:

Revenue of $14,890 and $31,463, respectively, and earnings of $16,573$368 and $954,$1,322, respectively, from the acquired business were included in the unaudited condensed consolidated and combined statementstatements of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018.

The following unaudited information presents the pro forma consolidated revenue and net (loss) incomeloss for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018 as if the acquisition had been included in the consolidated results of operations beginning January 1, 2017.

The above unaudited pro forma results have been calculated by combining the historical results of the Company and the acquired business as if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the fiscal year prior to the acquisition date, and then adjusting the income tax provisions as if they had been calculated based on the consolidated and combined results. The pro forma results include estimates for additional depreciation related to the fair value of property, plant and equipment and intangible asset amortization.

The pro forma results reflect the elimination of $573$589 of direct acquisition costs that were incurred in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 (since for purposes of the pro forma presentation they have been reflected in 2017 instead of in 2018). For all periods presented, historical depreciation and amortization expense of the acquired business was adjusted to reflect the acquisition date fair value amounts of the related tangible and intangible assets. No other material pro forma adjustments were deemed necessary, either to conform the acquisition to the Company’s accounting policies or for any other situation. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved had the transactions occurred on the date indicated or that may be achieved in the future.

Charah has an investment in a company that provides ash management and remarketing services to the electric utility industry. Charah accounts for its investment under the equity method of accounting because Charah has significant influence over the financial and operating policies of the company. Charah had a receivable due from the equity method investment of $130$264 and $108 at JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, definite-lived intangible assets included customer relationships, technology, non-compete and other agreements, SCB trade name (see Note 3) and a rail easement. These assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as shown in the table below. Amortization expense was $2,095$2,094 and $2,136$2,135 during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $4,211$6,305 and $4,097$6,232 during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

was $74,213. Our intangible assets as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 include a trade name valued at $34,330 that is considered to have an indefinite life.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may have decreased below its carrying value. We perform our impairment test effective October 1st of each year and evaluate for impairment indicators between annual impairment tests. We determined there were no indicators of impairment at June 30, 2019 or June 30, 2018 for the Maintenance and Technical Services reporting unit.

As a result of the Company’s decline in revenuesrevenue and the operating loss recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company performed the first step of the two step analysis for the Environmental Solutions reporting unit during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and determined that no impairment of goodwill occurred as a result of this triggering event. The Environmental Solutions reporting unit’s fair value, as calculated, was approximately 5.4% greater than its book value as of June 30, 2019.

The valuation used to test goodwill for impairment is dependent upon a number of significant estimates and assumptions, including macroeconomic conditions, growth rates, competitive activities, cost containment, margin expansion and the Company's business plans. We believe these estimates and assumptions are reasonable. However, future changes in the judgments, assumptions and estimates that are used in our impairment testing for goodwill, including discount and tax rates or future cash flow projections, could result in significantly different estimates of the fair values. As a result of these factors and the related cushion as of the date of the previous annual impairment test, goodwill for the Environmental Solutions reporting unit is more susceptible to impairment risk.

The most significant assumptions utilized in the determination of the estimated fair value of the Environmental Solutions reporting unit are the net sales and earnings growth rates (including residual growth rates) and the discount rate. The residual growth rate represents the expected rate at which the reporting unit is expected to grow beyond the shorter-term business planning period. The residual growth rate utilized in our fair value estimate is consistent with the reporting unit operating plans and approximates expected long-term category market growth rates and inflation. The discount rate, which is consistent with a weighted average cost of capital that is likely to be expected by a market participant, is based upon industry required rates of return, including consideration of both debt and equity components of the capital structure. Our discount rate may be impacted by adverse changes in the macroeconomic environment, volatility in the equity and debt markets or other factors.

While management can and has implemented strategies to address these events, changes in operating plans or adverse changes in the future could reduce the underlying cash flows used to estimate fair values and could result in a decline in fair value that would trigger future impairment charges of the reporting unit'sunit’s goodwill balance. The table below provides a sensitivity analysis for the Environmental Solutions reporting unit, utilizing reasonably possible changes in the assumptions for the shorter termshorter-term revenue and residual growth rates and the discount rate, to demonstrate the potential impacts to the estimated fair values. The table below provides, in isolation, the estimated fair value impacts related to (i) a 75-basis point increase to the discount rate assumption and (ii) a 100-basis point decrease to our shorter-term revenue and residual growth rates assumptions, both of which would result in impairment charges.

On September 21, 2018, we entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) by and among us, the lenders party thereto from time to time and Bank of America, as administrative agent.agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The Credit Facility includes:

All amounts associated with the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan under the Credit Facility mature in September 2023. The interest rates per annum applicable to the loans under the Credit Facility are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to, at our election, either (i) the Eurodollar rate, currently the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), or (ii) an alternative base rate. Various margins are added to the interest rate based upon our consolidated net leverage ratio.ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility). Customary fees are payable in respect of the Credit Facility and include (i) commitment fees (ranging from 0.25% to 0.35%, based upon our consolidated net leverage ratio) for unused portions of the Credit Facility and (ii) fees on outstanding letters of credit (ranging from 1.30% to 2.10%, based upon our consolidated net leverage ratio).credit. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility are secured by essentially all of the assets of the Company.

The Credit Facility contains various representations and warranties, and restrictive covenants that, among other things and subject to specified exceptions, restrict the ability of us and our restricted subsidiaries to grant liens, incur indebtedness (including guarantees), make investments, engage in mergers and acquisitions, make dispositions of assets, make restricted payments or change the nature of our or their business. The Credit Facility contains financial covenants related to the consolidated net leverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio (of 1.20(as defined in the Credit Facility). The restricted covenants after giving effect to 1.00). As of June 30, 2019, we were requiredAmendment No. 2 to comply with a

The Credit Facility also contains certain affirmative covenants, including reporting requirements, such as delivery of financial statements, certificates and notices of certain events, maintaining insurance and providing additional guarantees and collateral in certain circumstances.

The Credit Facility includes customary events of default, including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties, cross default to certain other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, invalidity or impairment of guarantees or security interests, material judgments and change of control.

The Revolving Loan provides a principal amount of up to $50,000, reduced by outstanding letters of credit ($11,980 outstanding as of June 30, 2019).credit. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, $35,174$10,215 was outstanding on the Revolving Loan.Loan and $11,980 of letters of credit were outstanding.

But for the amendment described below,Amendment, as of June 30, 2019, we would not have been in compliance with the requirement to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio of 3.75 to 1.00.1.00 under the Credit Facility. On August 13, 2019, we entered into the Amendment, No. 2 to Credit Agreement and Waiver (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which, among other things, the required lenders agreed to waive such non-compliance.

In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the Credit Facility was amended to revise the required financial covenant ratios such that, after giving effect to the Amendment, we are not required to comply with any financial covenants through March 30, 2020. After March 30, 2020, we will be required to comply with a consolidated net leverage ratio of 6.50 to 1.00 from March 31, 2020 through September 29, 2020, decreasing to 3.00 to 1.00 as of September 30, 2020 and thereafter. After giving effect to the Amendment, we will also be required to comply with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 0.75 to 1.00 as of March 31, 2020, 0.90 to 1.00 as of June 30, 2020 and 1.20 to 1.00 thereafter. In the event that we are unable to comply in the future with such financial covenants upon delivery of our financial statements pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, an Event of Default will have occurred and the Administrative Agent can then, following a specified cure period, declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts payable to be immediately due and payable by the Company.

As consideration for the accommodations described above, we have agreed that amounts borrowed pursuant to the Delayed Draw Commitment will not exceed $15,000 at any one time outstanding (without reducing the overall Delayed Draw Commitment amount). In addition, any Delayed Draw Term Loans shall incur additional interest at a rate equal to 10.0% per annum on all amounts outstanding in excess of $10,000 of Delayed Draw Term Loans. Further, the margin of interest that will be charged on all outstanding loans has been increased to 4.00% for loans based on LIBOR and 3.00% for loans based on the alternative base rate. The Amendment revised the amount of (i) the commitment fees to 0.35% at all times for unused portions of the Credit Facility and (ii) fees on outstanding letters of credit to 3.35% at all times. The Amendment also addsadded a requirement to make two additional scheduled prepayments of outstanding loans under the Credit Facility, including a payment of $50,000 on or before September 13, 2019 and an additional payment of $40,000 on or before March 31, 2020.

The Company believes collection of$50,000 payment was made prior to September 13, 2019, using the payment collected related to the early completion of the Brickhaven deemed termination (see Note 15) is probable before the $50,000 September 13, 2019 required debt payment, and such proceeds will be used to fund this required prepayment. While management believes it is unlikely, any delay in the receipt of this payment could require the Company to amend or obtain a waiver from the Administrative Agent to remain in compliance with the Amendment to the Credit Agreement. There is no assurance that we could obtain such amendment or waiver.

The Amendment also includes revisions to the restrictive covenants, including removing certain exceptions to the restrictions on our ability to make acquisitions, to make investments and to make dividends or other distributions. After giving effect to the Amendment, we will not be permitted to make any distributions or dividends to our shareholdersstockholders without the consent of the required lenders.

In order to manage interest rate risk in a cost-efficient manner, the Company entered into an interest rate swap during 2017 whereby the Company agreed to exchange with the counterparty, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and

variable interest amounts calculated by reference to a notional amount. The interest rate swap is not designated for hedge accounting. The change in fair value of the interest rate swap is immediately recognized in earnings, within interest expense.

The net balance in process classified on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets is as follows: 

Anticipated losses on long-term contracts are recognized when such losses become evident. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, accruals for anticipated losses on long-term contracts were $425$471 and $677, respectively.

The Limited Liability Company Agreement for Charah Management provided for the issuance of up to 1,000 Series C profits interests (the “Charah Series C Profits Interests”). In 2017, Charah Management adopted the Charah Series C Profits Interest Plan and issued 650 of such units to employees. The Charah Series C Profits Interests participated in distributions to Charah members based on specified rates of return being realized on the Charah Management LLC Series A Membership Interests and the Charah Management LLC Series B Membership Interests. The Charah Series C Profits Interest Plan is no longer in place following our corporate reorganization and related IPO. The Charah Series C Profits Interests would have vested ratably in each of the first five anniversaries of their grant date with vesting accelerated upon a change of control. There were 540 Charah Series C Profits Interests unvested at June 18, 2018, which were canceled as a result of the corporate reorganization that occurred upon the closing of the IPO (see further discussion below).

The Limited Liability Company Agreement for Allied provided for the issuance of up to 1,000 Series C profits interests (the “Allied Series C Profits Interests”). In 2017, Allied adopted the Allied Series C Profits Interest Plan and issued 550 of such units to employees. The Allied Series C Profits Interests participated in distributions to Allied members based on specified rates of return being realized on the Allied Power Management, LLC Series A Membership Interests and the Allied Power Management, LLC Series B Membership Interests. The Allied Series C Profits Interest Plan is no longer in place following our corporate reorganization and related IPO. The Allied Series C Profits Interests vested immediately upon grant.

In connection with the corporate reorganization that occurred upon the closing of the IPO, the holders of the Charah Series C Profits Interests and the Allied Series C Profits Interests received 1,215,956 shares of common stock (the “Management Reorganization Consideration”) in exchange for the contribution to the Company of their Charah Series C Profits Interests and Allied Series C Profits Interests. Of these shares, 303,993 vested immediately and 911,963 are subject to time-based vesting

Allied Series C Profits Interests. Of these shares, 303,993 vested immediately and 911,963 are subject to time-based vesting conditions, as well as performance vesting conditions, based on specified EBITDA targets and achievement of certain safety metrics, which will be determined at a future date. In addition, 272,708 shares of common stock were issued under the Charah Solutions, Inc. 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). Of these shares, 68,176 vested immediately and 204,532 are subject to the same time-based vesting conditions and performance vesting conditions as the shares issued as part of the Management Reorganization Consideration. The fair value of the awards was calculated initially as $12 per share, and will be updated thereafter for changes at each reporting period until the performance targets are approved by the Company’s board of directors. The fair value of the awards is recognized over the required service period for each grant. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, 500,253 of the shares subject to time basedtime-based and performance vesting conditions were vested.

Upon the closing of the IPO, the board of directors of the Company adopted the 2018 Plan, pursuant to which employees, consultants and directors of the Company and its affiliates, including named executive officers, are eligible to receive awards. The 2018 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, bonus stock, dividend equivalents, other stock-based awards, substitute awards, annual incentive awards and performance awards intended to align the interests of participants with those of Company stockholders. The Company has reserved 3,006,582 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2018 Plan, and all future equity awards described above will be issued pursuant to the 2018 Plan.

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued 44,198 shares under the 2018 Plan that vested after one year. The fair value of the awards was calculated as $12 per share, which was recognized over the one year vesting period. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, 31,577 of the shares were vested and 12,621 had been forfeited. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued 45,004 shares under the 2018 Plan that vestvested after one year. The fair value of the awards was calculated as $7.67 per share, which is beingwas recognized over the one year vesting period. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, none36,670 of the shares were vested.vested and 8,334 had been forfeited.

DuringThere were no grants or awards during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company granted 755,455 restricted stock units ("RSUs"(“RSUs”) under the 2018 Plan that are time-based. Of these RSUs, 116,381 vest after one year, 550,106 vest in equal installments over three years, and 88,968 vest in equal installments over four years. The fair value of these RSUs is based on the market price of the Company's shares on the grant date. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, none of the shares were vested. Additionally,During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we also granted 330,628 performance share units ("PSUs"(“PSUs”) under the 2018 Plan that cliff vest after three years. The vesting of these PSUs is dependent upon the Company'sCompany’s achievement of a certain stock price metrics. The fair value of the PSUs was determined using a binomial lattice model based upon the grant date stock price, a risk-free interest rate of 2.29% based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grants, and an assumed volatility rate of 30% based upon a comparable public company analysis. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, none of the shares were vested.

A summary of the Company’s non-vested share activity for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 is as follows:

Stock-based compensation expense related to the shares issued as part of the Management Reorganization Consideration and the 2018 Plan was $799$659 and $1,189$1,046 during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $1,007$1,666 and $1,189$2,235 during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
