NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

Note 1 - Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
 
Description of Business

Exterran Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Exterran Corporation,” “the Company,” “our,” “we” or “us”), a Delaware corporation formed in March 2015, is a global systems and process company offering solutions in the oil, gas, water and power markets. We are a leader in natural gas processing and treatment and compression products and services, providing critical midstream infrastructure solutions to customers throughout the world. We provide our products and services to a global customer base consisting of companies engaged in all aspects of the oil and natural gas industry, including large integrated oil and natural gas companies, national oil and natural gas companies, independent oil and natural gas producers and oil and natural gas processors, gatherers and pipeline operators. Our manufacturing facilities are located in the U.S., Singapore and the United Arab Emirates. We operate in three primary business lines: contract operations, aftermarket services and product sales.

On November 3, 2015, Archrock, Inc. (named Exterran Holdings, Inc. prior to November 3, 2015) (“Archrock”) completed the spin-off (the ‘‘Spin-off”) of its international contract operations, international aftermarket services and global fabrication businesses into an independent, publicly traded company named Exterran Corporation.
 
Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Exterran Corporation included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S.”) (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are not required in these interim financial statements and have been condensed or omitted. Management believes that the information furnished includes all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary to fairly present our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. That report contains a comprehensive summary of our accounting policies. The interim results reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

We refer to the condensed consolidated financial statements collectively as “financial statements,” and individually as “balance sheets,” “statements of operations,” “statements of comprehensive income (loss),” “statements of stockholders’ equity” and “statements of cash flows” herein.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We consider the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be not applicable.


Table of Contents

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”). The update requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by leases. Leases are now classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statements of operations. The update also requires certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. On January 1, 2019, we adopted the standard using the transition method that allows us to initially apply ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019 and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Additionally, we elected certain practical expedients permitted by ASC 842 in applying the lease standard upon adoption. Upon implementation of the new lease standard, we did not reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease at the date of initial application. For contracts entered into before the transition date, we used the lease classification under the accounting standards in effect prior to adoption. We also excluded initial direct costs for the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application. As a result of this adoption, as a lessee, we recorded operating lease assets and lease liabilities of $21.2 million and $26.5 million, respectively, as of January 1, 2019. The difference between the lease assets and lease liabilities, including prepayments, was recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our statements of operations and cash flows. See Note 3 for the required disclosures related to the impact of adopting this standard.

As a result of the adoption of the new lease guidance, the following adjustments were made to the balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 (in thousands):

From a lessor perspective, new customer contracts entered into or modified on or after January 1, 2019 have been assessed in accordance with ASC 842 and ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”), as applicable and will be assessed accordingly in future periods. Additionally, for contracts determined to have lease and nonlease components, we have elected to apply the practical expedient to not separate the components and account for those components as a single component, if the applicable conditions are met. Furthermore, for contracts where the nonlease component is determined to be the predominant component, revenue will continue to be recognized in accordance with ASC 606. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were no new customer contracts or amendments to existing customer contracts that were assessed to be within ASC 842.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). The update changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities and loans, and requires entities to use a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Adoption will require a modified retrospective approach beginning with the earliest period presented. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the update on our financial statements.


Table of Contents

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The update modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements by removing, modifying and adding certain disclosure requirements. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of the guidance and delayed adoption of the additional required disclosures is permitted until the effective date. Adoption will require a prospective or retrospective approach based on the specific amendments. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the update on our financial statements.

Note 2 - Revenue

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC 606 applying the modified retrospective method to all contracts that were not completed as of the date of adoption. We recorded a net increase to accumulated deficit of $10.0 million as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting ASC 606.

During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, revenue recognized from contract operations services included $9.7$17.0 million of revenue deferred in previous periods. Revenue recognized during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 from product sales performance obligations partially satisfied in previous periods was $431.7$515.6 million, of which $93.2$102.8 million was included in billings in excess of costs at the beginning of the period. The decreases in current contract assets and current contract liabilities during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 were primarily driven by the progression of product sales projects and the timing of milestone billings in the North America region. The increase in long-term contract liabilities during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 was primarily driven by advanced billings to contract operations customers in the Latin America region.

Note 3 - Leases

As discussed in Note 1, on January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842 retrospectively through a cumulative-effect adjustment as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in ASC 842. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 842, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the prior period.

We primarily lease various offices, warehouses, equipment and vehicles. A right-of-use asset represents our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and a lease liability represents our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Our operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of lease payments over the lease term at the time of lease commencement, adjusted to include the impact of any lease incentives. Leases with initial terms of 12 months or less are not recorded on our balance sheets and leases that contain non-lease components are combined with the lease componentcomponents and accounted for as a single lease component.


Table of Contents

Our lease agreements are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a variety of different terms and conditions. They generally do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Certain lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Additionally, some of our leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one month to 10 years. Options to renew our lease terms are included in determining the right-of-use asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we recorded expenseexpenses of $2.3$1.7 million and 4.3$6.0 million for our operating leases, respectively, of which $0.2$0.1 million and 0.3$0.4 million of expenses related to operating leases with initial terms of 12 months or less, respectively. We do not have any material leases, individually or in the aggregate, classified as a finance leasing arrangement.

As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We used the incremental borrowing rate on January 1, 2019 for operating leases that commenced prior to that date. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, the weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate applied for our operating leases were nine years and 7%, respectively.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, our lease assets and lease liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):

Note 4 - Discontinued Operations

In the first quarter of 2016, we began executing the exit of our Belleli EPC business that has historically been comprised of engineering, procurement and construction for the manufacture of tanks for tank farms and the manufacture of evaporators and brine heaters for desalination plants in the Middle East (referred to as “Belleli EPC” or the “Belleli EPC business” herein) by ceasing the bookings of new orders. As of the fourth quarter of 2017, we had substantially exited our Belleli EPC business and, in accordance with GAAP, it is reflected as discontinued operations in our financial statements for all periods presented. Although we have reached mechanical completion on all remaining Belleli EPC contracts, we are still subject to risks and uncertainties potentially resulting from warranty obligations, customer or supplier claims against us, settlement of claims against customers, completion of demobilization activities and litigation developments. The facility previously utilized to manufacture products for our Belleli EPC business has been repurposed to manufacture product sales equipment. As such, certain personnel, buildings, equipment and other assets that were previously related to our Belleli EPC business remain a part of our continuing operations. As a result, activities associated with our ongoing operations at our repurposed facility are included in continuing operations.

The following table summarizes the operating results of discontinued operations (in thousands):

Revolving Credit Facility Due October 2023

We and our wholly owned subsidiary, Exterran Energy Solutions, L.P. (“EESLP”), are parties to an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) consisting of a $700.0 million revolving credit facility expiring in October 2023.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we had $90.0$126.0 million in outstanding borrowings and $22.2$23.0 million in outstanding letters of credit under our revolving credit facility. At JuneSeptember 30, 2019, taking into account guarantees through letters of credit, we had undrawn capacity of $587.8$551.0 million under our revolving credit facility. Our Credit Agreement limits our senior secured leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) on the last day of the fiscal quarter to no greater than 2.75 to 1.0. As a result of this limitation, $528.6$472.9 million of the $587.8$551.0 million of undrawn capacity under our revolving credit facility was available for additional borrowings as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019.

8.125% Senior Notes Due May 2025

In April 2017, our 100% owned subsidiaries EESLP and EES Finance Corp. issued $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.125% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (the “2017 Notes”). TheWe guarantee the 2017 Notes are guaranteed by us on a senior unsecured basis. We may redeem the 2017 Notes at any time in cash, in whole or part, at certain redemption prices, including the applicable make-whole premium plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.

Note 9 - Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following three categories:
 
Level 1 — Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets to which we have access at the date of measurement.

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers.

Table of Contents


Level 3 — Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect our own assumptions regarding how market participants would price the asset or liability based on the best available information.

(1) 
Our estimate of the fair value of the impaired long-lived assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we sold and/or a review of other units offered for sale by third parties.
(2)
Our estimate of the fair value of the impaired assets, which were classified as held for sale during the six months ended Juneas of September 30, 2019, was based on the expected net proceeds from the sale of the assets.
(2)(3) 
Our estimate of the fair value of the impaired North America production equipment assets (“PEQ assets”), which were classified as assets held for sale as of March 31, 2018 and sold in June 2018, was based on the expected net proceeds from the sale of the assets.
(3)(4) 
Our estimate of the fair value of a note receivable was discounted based on a settlement period of eight years and a discount rate of 5.2%

Financial Instruments
 
Our financial instruments consistconsists of cash, restricted cash, receivables, payables and debt. At JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the estimated fair values of cash, restricted cash, receivables and payables approximated their carrying amounts as reflected in our balance sheets due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
 
The fair value of the 2017 Notes was estimated based on model derived calculations using market yields observed in active markets, which are Level 2 inputs. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying amount of the 2017 Notes, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs, of $375.0 million was estimated to have a fair value of $383.0$374.0 million and $362.0 million, respectively. Due to the variable rate nature of our revolving credit facility, the carrying value as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 approximated the fair value as the rate was comparable to the then-current market rate at which debt with similar terms could have been obtained.

Note 10 - Long-Lived Asset Impairment

We review long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangibles that are being amortized, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, including the removal of compressor units from our active fleet, indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

DuringIn the three months ended June 30,second quarter of 2019, we identifiedclassified certain of these long-lived assets removed them from our fleet of compression units, and classified them as assets held for sale. Insale in our balance sheets. As described in Note 7, in conjunction with the planned disposition of these units, we recorded a chargeimpairment charges of $5.9$3.0 million and $8.9 million to write-down these assets to their approximate fair values forduring the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019.2019 based on the expected net proceeds, respectively.

During the third quarter of 2018, we evaluated idle units that had been previously culled from our fleet and were available for sale for impairment. Based upon that review, we reduced the expected proceeds from disposition for certain units. This resulted in an additional impairment of $2.1 million to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The fair value of each unit was estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold and/or a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties.

In the fourth quarter of 2017, we classified our PEQ assets primarily related to inventory and property, plant and equipment, net, within our product sales business as assets held for sale in our balance sheets. In June 2018, we completed the sale of our PEQ assets. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018, we recorded an impairment of $1.8 million to reduce these assets to their approximate fair values based on the expected net proceeds.

Note 11 - Restructuring and Other Charges

The energy industry’s focus on capital discipline and improving returns has caused delays in the timing of new equipment orders. As a result, in the second quarter of 2019, we began the consolidation of onetwo of our two manufacturing facilities located in Houston, Texas into one facility and announced a cost reduction plan primarily focused on workforce reductions throughout the Company.reductions. We incurred restructuring and other charges associated with these activities of $5.9$1.8 million and $7.7 million for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019.2019, respectively. These charges are reportedreflected as restructuring and other charges in our statements of operations and accrued liabilities on our balance sheets. We expect to settle these charges within the next twelve months in cash and the amounts recorded are based on estimates that may vary significantly from actual costs depending, in part, upon factors that may be beyond our control. We will continue to review the status of our restructuring obligations on a quarterly basis and, if appropriate, record changes to these obligations in current operations.cash.

In the second quarter of 2018, we initiated a relocation plan in the North America region to better align our contract operations business with our customers. As a result of this plan, during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we incurred restructuring and other charges of $0.2 million related to relocations costs and $1.4 million duringrelocation costs. During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018, we incurred restructuring and other charges of $0.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively, primarily related to employee termination benefits. The charges incurred in conjunction with this relocation plan are included in restructuring and other charges in our statements of operations. In the second quarter of 2019, we completed restructuring activities related to thisthe relocation plan.

Note 12 - Provision for Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate is affected by recurring items, such as tax rates in foreign jurisdictions and the relative amounts of income we earn, or losses we incur, in those jurisdictions. It is also affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year but are not consistent from year to year. Our effective tax rate is also impactedaffected by valuation allowances recorded against loss carryforwards in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions, foreign withholding taxes and changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

The following items had the most significant impact on the difference between our statutory U.S. federal income tax rate of 21.0% and our effective tax rate of (6.1)% for the three months ended September 30, 2019: (i) a $0.8 million favorable impact resulting primarily from rate differences between U.S. and foreign jurisdictions including foreign withholding taxes, (ii) a $0.6 million negative impact resulting from foreign currency devaluations in Argentina, and (iii) a $2.5 million negative impact resulting from the recording of valuation allowances recorded against U.S. deferred tax assets.

Our effective tax rate decreased for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 increased overcompared to the comparative period ending Junenine months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to recording additionala decrease in income before income taxes, an increase in valuation allowanceallowances recorded in the U.S., an increasea decrease in foreign withholding tax and additionala decrease in tax related to foreign exchange movement in Argentina in 2019, and a valuation allowance release in Indonesia in the comparative period.2019.

During the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we recorded a $6.5 million tax benefit (recognized in income from discontinued operations, net of tax), related to a settlement of Italian tax litigation previously recorded as an unrecognized tax benefit.

Note 13 - Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

On February 20, 2019, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to purchase up to $100.0 million of its outstanding common stock through February 2022. The timing and method of any repurchases under the program will depend on a variety of factors, including prevailing market conditions among others. Purchases under the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and we have no obligation to repurchase any amount of our common shares under the program. Shares of common stock acquired through the repurchase program are held in treasury at cost. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we repurchased 1,290,0783,054,338 shares of our common stock for $18.8$38.9 million in connection with our share repurchase program. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, the remaining authorized repurchase amount under the share repurchase program was $81.2$61.1 million. Additionally, treasury stock purchased during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018 included shares withheld to satisfy employees’ tax withholding obligations in connection with vesting of restricted stock awards.

Stock Options

There were no0 stock options granted during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019.

Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units

For grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units, we recognize compensation expense over the applicable vesting period equal to the fair value of our common stock at the grant date. Grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units generally vest one third per year on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Certain grants of restricted stock vest on the third anniversary of the grant date and certain grants of performance units vest on the second anniversary of the grant date.

Note 15 - Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines net income (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, basic net income (loss) per common share is determined by dividing net income (loss) after deducting amounts allocated to participating securities, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Participating securities include unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units that have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid. During periods of net loss from continuing operations, no effect is given to participating securities because they do not have a contractual obligation to participate in our losses.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental common stock equivalents attributed to outstanding options to purchase common stock and non-participating restricted stock units, unless their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

In addition to U.S. federal, state and local and foreign income taxes, we are subject to a number of taxes that are not income-based. As many of these taxes are subject to audit by the taxing authorities, it is possible that an audit could result in additional taxes due. We accrue for such additional taxes when we determine that it is probable that we have incurred a liability and we can reasonably estimate the amount of the liability. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had accrued $5.1 million for the outcomes of non-income-based tax audits. We do not expect that the ultimate resolutions of these audits will result in a material variance from the amounts accrued. We do not accrue for unasserted claims for tax audits unless we believe the assertion of a claim is probable, it is probable that it will be determined that the claim is owed and we can reasonably estimate the claim or range of the claim. We do not have any unasserted claims from non-income based tax audits that we have determined are probable of assertion. We also believe the likelihood is remote that the impact of potential unasserted claims from non-income-based tax audits could be material to our financial position, but it is possible that the resolution of future audits could be material to our results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the resolution occurs.
 
Our business can be hazardous, involving unforeseen circumstances such as uncontrollable flows of natural gas or well fluids and fires or explosions. As is customary in our industry, we review our safety equipment and procedures and carry insurance against some, but not all, risks of our business. Our insurance coverage includes property damage, general liability, commercial automobile liability and other coverage we believe is appropriate. We believe that our insurance coverage is customary for the industry and adequate for our business; however, losses and liabilities not covered by insurance would increase our costs.

Additionally, we are substantially self-insured for workers’ compensation and employee group health claims in view of the relatively high per-incident deductibles we absorb under our insurance arrangements for these risks. Losses up to the deductible amounts are estimated and accrued based upon known facts, historical trends and industry averages.
 
Litigation and Claims

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, it believes that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and arbitration proceedings, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
Contemporaneously with filing the Form 8-K on April 26, 2016, we self-reported the errors and possible irregularities at Belleli EPC to the SEC. On April 8, 2019, the SEC provided written notice to us stating that based on the information they have as of this date, they have concluded their investigation and do not intend to recommend enforcement action by the SEC against us in connection with this matter.

Indemnifications

In conjunction with, and effective as of the completion of, the Spin-off, we entered into the separation and distribution agreement with Archrock, which governs, among other things, the treatment between Archrock and us relating to certain aspects of indemnification, insurance, confidentiality and cooperation. Generally, the separation and distribution agreement provides for cross-indemnities principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of our business with us and financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of Archrock’s business with Archrock. Pursuant to the agreement, we and Archrock will generally release the other party from all claims arising prior to the Spin-off that relate to the other party’s business, subject to certain exceptions. Additionally, in conjunction with, and effective as of the completion of, the Spin-off, we entered into the tax matters agreement with Archrock. Under the tax matters agreement and subject to certain exceptions, we are generally liable for, and indemnify Archrock against, taxes attributable to our business, and Archrock is generally liable for, and indemnify us against, all taxes attributable to its business. We are generally liable for, and indemnify Archrock against, 50% of certain taxes that are not clearly attributable to our business or Archrock’s business. Any payment made by us to Archrock, or by Archrock to us, is treated by all parties for tax purposes as a nontaxable distribution or capital contribution, respectively, made immediately prior to the Spin-off.

Note 17 - Reportable Segments

Our chief operating decision maker manages business operations, evaluates performance and allocates resources based upon the type of product or service provided. We have three3 reportable segments: contract operations, aftermarket services and product sales. In our contract operations segment, we provide compression, processing, treating and water treatment services through the operation of our natural gas compression equipment, crude oil and natural gas production and process equipment and water treatment equipment for our customers. In our aftermarket services segment, we sell parts and components and provide operations, maintenance, repair, overhaul, upgrade, startup and commissioning and reconfiguration services to customers who own their own oil and natural gas compression, production, processing, treating and related equipment. In our product sales segment, we design, engineer, manufacture, install and sell natural gas compression packages as well as equipment used in the treating and processing of crude oil, natural gas and water to our customers throughout the world and for use in our contract operations business line.

We evaluate the performance of our segments based on gross margin for each segment. Revenue only includes sales to external customers. We do not include intersegment sales when we evaluate our segments’ performance.

The following table presents revenue and other financial information by reportable segment for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):

Note 18 - Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

In April 2017, our 100% owned subsidiaries EESLP and EES Finance Corp. (together, the “Issuers”) issued the 2017 Notes, which consists of $375.0 million aggregate principal amount senior unsecured notes. The 2017 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by Exterran Corporation (the “Parent Guarantor” or “Parent”). All other consolidated subsidiaries of Exterran are collectively referred to as the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries.” As a result of the Parent’s guarantee, we are presenting the following condensed consolidating financial information pursuant to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered. These schedules are presented using the equity method of accounting for all periods presented. For purposes of the following condensed consolidating financial information, the Parent Guarantor’s investments in its subsidiaries, the Issuers’ investments in the Non-Guarantors Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries’ investments in the Issuers are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, investments in subsidiaries are recorded at cost and adjusted for our share in the subsidiaries’ cumulative results of operations, capital contributions and distributions and other changes in equity. Elimination entries relate primarily to the elimination of investments in subsidiaries and associated intercompany balances and transactions.

General

Exterran Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Exterran Corporation,” “the Company,” “our,” “we” or “us”), a Delaware corporation formed in March 2015, is a global systems and process company offering solutions in the oil, gas, water and power markets. We are a leader in natural gas processing and treatment and compression products and services, providing critical midstream infrastructure solutions to customers throughout the world. Our manufacturing facilities are located in the United States of America (“U.S.”), Singapore and the United Arab Emirates.

We provide our products and services to a global customer base consisting of companies engaged in all aspects of the oil and natural gas industry, including large integrated oil and natural gas companies, national oil and natural gas companies, independent oil and natural gas producers and oil and natural gas processors, gatherers and pipeline operators. We operate in three primary business lines: contract operations, aftermarket services and product sales. The nature and inherent interactions between and among our business lines provide us with opportunities to cross-sell or offer integrated product and service solutions to our customers.

In our contract operations business line, we provide compression, processing, treating and water treatment services through the operation of our natural gas compression equipment, crude oil and natural gas production and process equipment and water treatment equipment for our customers. In our aftermarket services business line, we sell parts and components and provide operations, maintenance, repair, overhaul, upgrade, startup and commissioning and reconfiguration services to customers who own their own oil and natural gas compression, production, processing, treating and related equipment. In our product sales business line, we design, engineer, manufacture, install and sell natural gas compression packages as well as equipment used in the treating and processing of crude oil, natural gas and water to our customers throughout the world and for use in our contract operations business line. We also offer our customers, on either a contract operations basis or a sale basis, the engineering, design, project management, procurement and construction services necessary to incorporate our products into production, processing and compression facilities, which we refer to as integrated projects.

Our chief operating decision maker manages business operations, evaluates performance and allocates resources based on the Company’s three primary business lines, which are also referred to as our segments. In order to more efficiently and effectively identify and serve our customer needs, we classify our worldwide operations into four geographic regions. The North America region is primarily comprised of our operations in Mexico and the U.S. The Latin America region is primarily comprised of our operations in Argentina, Bolivia and Brazil. The Middle East and Africa region is primarily comprised of our operations in Bahrain, Iraq, Oman, Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates. The Asia Pacific region is primarily comprised of our operations in China, Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand.

We refer to the condensed consolidated financial statements collectively as “financial statements,” and individually as “balance sheets,” “statements of operations,” “statements of comprehensive income (loss),” “statements of stockholders’ equity” and “statements of cash flows” herein.

Overview

Industry Conditions and Trends
 
Our business environment and corresponding operating results are affected by the level of energy industry spending for the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas reserves. Spending by oil and natural gas exploration and production companies is dependent upon these companies’ forecasts regarding the expected future supply, demand and pricing of oil and natural gas products as well as their estimates of risk-adjusted costs to find, develop and produce reserves. Although we believe our contract operations business, and to a lesser extent our product sales business, is typically less impacted by short-term commodity prices than certain other energy products and service providers, changes in oil and natural gas exploration and production spending normally result in changes in demand for our products and services.

From a long-term perspective, industry observers anticipate strong global demand for hydrocarbons, including demand for liquefied natural gas. However, customer cash flows and focus on returns on capital could drive customer investment priorities. Industry observers believe shareholders are encouraging management teams of energy companies to focus operational and compensation strategies on returns and cash flow generation rather than solely on growth. To accomplish these strategies, energy companies may need to better prioritize capital spending, which could continue to impact resource allocation and ultimately the amount of new projects and capital spending by our customers.

Our Performance Trends and Outlook
 
Our revenue, earnings and financial position are affected by, among other things, market conditions that impact demand and pricing for natural gas compression and oil and natural gas production and processing and our customers’ decisions to use our products and services, use our competitors’ products and services or own and operate the equipment themselves.

We have continued to work toward our strategy to be a company that leverages technology and operational excellence to providing complete systems and process solutions in energy and industrial applications. Over the past several years, we have made significant progress in this journey by taking actions to protect our core business, develop important organizational capabilities and implement new processes to position Exterran for success. We are focused on optimizing our portfolio of products and services to better serve our global customers while providing a more attractive investment option for our investors. As we continue on this path, we are also reviewing options for our U.S. compression fabrication business to be a positive contributor to our strategy. This business has performed well over the past year despite difficult market conditions as we worked to maximize margins and returns. We will fully explore our options and we are committed to supporting our customers, employees and other stakeholders throughout the process.
 
Historically, oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids prices and the level of drilling and exploration activity in North America have been volatile. The Henry Hub spot price for natural gas was $2.42$2.37 per MMBtu at JuneSeptember 30, 2019, which was 26%27% and 18%21% lower than the prices at December 31, 2018 and JuneSeptember 30, 2018, respectively, and the U.S. natural gas liquid composite price was $6.09$4.62 per MMBtu for the month of AprilJuly 2019, which was 5%28% and 29%56% lower than the prices for the month of December 2018 and JuneSeptember 2018, respectively. In addition, the West Texas Intermediate crude oil spot price as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019 was 29%20% higher than the price at December 31, 2018 and 21%26% lower than the price at JuneSeptember 30, 2018. Volatility in commodity prices and an industry trend towards disciplined capital spending and improving returns have caused timing uncertainties in demand recently. These uncertainties are resultinghave caused delays in tentative customer spendingthe timing of new equipment orders and investments in equipment in North America and has resulted in lower bookings in our product sales segment. Booking activity levels for our product sales segment in North America during the threenine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 were $41.4$143.5 million, which represents decreasesa decrease of 73% and 82%81% compared to the threenine months ended December 31, 2018 and JuneSeptember 30, 2018, respectively.2018.
 
Longer-term fundamentals in our international markets partially depend on international oil and gas infrastructure projects, many of which are based on the longer-term plans of our customers that can be driven by their local market demand and local pricing for natural gas. As a result, we believe our international customers make decisions based on longer-term fundamentals that may be less tied to near term commodity prices than our North American customers. Over the long-term, we believe the demand for our products and services in international markets will continue, and we expect to have opportunities to grow our international businesses. Booking activity levels for our product sales segment in international markets during the threenine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 were $37.9$140.0 million, which represents an increase of 1,114% and a decrease of 82%35% compared to the threenine months ended December 31, 2018 and JuneSeptember 30, 2018, respectively.2018.
 

Table of Contents

Aggregate booking activity levels for our product sales segment in North America and international markets during the threenine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 were $79.3$283.5 million, which represents decreasesa decrease of 50% and 82%71% compared to the threenine months ended December 31, 2018 and JuneSeptember 30, 2018, respectively. Fluctuations in the size and timing of customers’ requests for bid proposals and awards of new contracts tend to create variability in booking activity levels from period to period.

The timing of any change in activity levels by our customers is difficult to predict. As a result, our ability to project the anticipated activity level for our business, and particularly our product sales segment, is limited. Given the volatility of the global energy markets and industry capital spending activity levels, we plan to monitor and continue to control our expense levels as necessary to protect our profitability. Additionally, volatility in commodity prices could delay investments by our customers in significant projects, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our level of capital spending largely depends on the demand for our contract operations services and the equipment required to provide such services to our customers. Based on demand we seeorders awarded for contract operations, we anticipate investing approximately the same level ofexpect to invest more capital in our contract operations business in 2019 asthan we did in 2018.

A decline in demand for oil and natural gas or prices for those commodities, or instability and prioritization of capital funding in the global energy markets could cause a reduction in demand for our products and services. We review long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangibles that are being amortized, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, including the removal of compressor units from our active fleet, indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”)&A expense remained relatively flatdecreased during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018.2018 primarily due to a decrease in compensation and associated costs and a decrease in third-party professional expenses. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue was 12% and 13% during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 increased primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense of $5.3$5.4 million in the current year period resulting from an amendment to a contract operations contract in the fourth quarter of 2018. Additionally, depreciation expense of capitalized installation costs increased by $7.1 million primarily due to additional depreciation on projects that were not operating in the prior year period. Capitalized installation costs included, among other things, civil engineering, piping, electrical instrumentation and project management costs.

Long-lived asset impairment
In the second quarter of 2019, we classified certain long-lived assets as assets held for sale in our balance sheets. In conjunction with the planned disposition of these units, we recorded an additional impairment charge of $3.0 million to write-down these assets to their approximate fair values during the three months ended September 30, 2019 based on the expected net proceeds.

We regularly review the future deployment of our idle compression assets used in our contract operations segment for units that are not the type, configuration, condition, make or model that are cost efficient to maintain and operate on behalfoperate. During the third quarter 2018, we evaluated idle units that had been previously culled from our fleet and were available for sale for impairment. Based upon that review, we reduced the expected proceeds from disposition for certain units. This resulted in an additional impairment of our customers. During$2.1 million to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we identified certain2018. The fair value of these long-lived assets, removed them from oureach unit was estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet of compression units, and classified them as assets held for sale.

Restructuring and other charges
The energy industry’s focus on capital discipline and improving returns has caused delays in the timing of new equipment orders. As a result, in the second quarter of 2019, we began the consolidation of onetwo of our two manufacturing facilities located in Houston, Texas into one facility and announced a cost reduction plan across all of our operations regions, primarily focused on workforce reductions. We incurred restructuring and other charges associated with these activities of $5.9$1.8 million during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019.

In the second quarter of 2018, we initiated a relocation plan in the North America region to better align our contract operations business with our customers. As a result of this plan, during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018, we incurred restructuring and other charges of $1.4$0.3 million primarily related to relocation costs and employee termination benefits.costs.

Interest expense
The increase in interest expense during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 was primarily due to a decrease in capitalized interest and a higher average balance of long-term debt, partially offset by a decrease in the effective interest rate on our debt. During the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, the average daily outstanding borrowings of long-term debt were $520.8$519.9 million and $436.7$453.0 million, respectively.

Other (income) expense, net
The change in other (income) expense, net, was primarily due to foreign currency losses net of losses on foreign currency derivatives, of $0.5$3.1 million during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to foreign currency losses of $3.8$0.8 million during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018. Foreign currency gains and losses included translation gains, netlosses of losses on foreign currency derivatives, of $0.6$0.9 million and translation losses of $3.5$0.2 million during the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to the currency remeasurement of our foreign subsidiaries’ non-functional currency denominated intercompany obligations. Other (income) expense, net, also included a loss of $1.7 million on the sale of our PEQ assets in the prior year period.

The decrease in revenue during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 was primarily due to decreases in revenue of $17.3$16.8 million and $5.2$6.2 million in the Latin America region and Asia Pacific region, respectively, partially offset by increases in revenue of $8.9$19.3 million and $1.0$2.5 million in the Middle East and Africa region and the North America region, respectively. The revenue decrease in the Latin America region was primarily driven by a decrease of $11.0$11.2 million in Argentina largely resulting from the current year impact of the devaluation of the Argentine Peso during the second half of 2018 and projects that terminated operations in 2018 and a $7.0$9.0 million decrease in Brazil primarily driven by projects that terminated in 2018 and 2019 and the impact of foreign currency exchange rates. These revenue decreases in the Latin America region were partially offset by an increase of $3.8 million due to the start-up of a project that was not operating in the prior year period. The revenue decrease in the Asia Pacific region was primarily driven by a $2.8 million recovery of an early termination fee in the first quarter of 2018 for a contract that terminated in January 2016.2016 and projects that terminated in the fourth quarter of 2018. The revenue increase in the Middle East and Africa region was primarily due to the start-up of a project that was not operating in the prior year period.period and the start-up of a project that commenced August 2018. The increase of revenue in the North America region was primarily due to a renegotiation of a contract in the fourth quarter that resulted in higher revenue in the current year period.

Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 increased primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense of $10.5$15.9 million in the current year period resulting from an amendment to a contract operations contract in the fourth quarter of 2018. Additionally, depreciation expense of capitalized installation costs increased by $8.1 million primarily due to additional depreciation on projects that were not operating in the prior year period.

During the third quarter 2018, we evaluated idle units that had been previously culled from our fleet and were available for sale for impairment. Based upon that review, we reduced the expected proceeds from disposition for certain units. This resulted in an additional impairment of $2.1 million to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The fair value of each unit was estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold and/or a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties.

In the fourth quarter of 2017, we classified certain PEQ assets primarily related to inventory and property, plant and equipment, net, within our product sales business as assets held for sale in our balance sheets.

Operating Activities.  The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to better collections of in-period billings during the current year period and an increase in cash received from upfront billings on contract operations projects. Working capital changes during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 included an increasea decrease of $33.1 million in contract liabilities, an increase of $29.3 million in inventory, an increase of $15.7$63.3 million in accounts receivablepayable and a decrease of $44.0$49.3 million in contract assets. Working capital changes during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 included an increase of $70.1$51.1 million in inventory and an increase of $21.6$16.3 million in contract assets.
 
Investing Activities.  The increase in net cash used in investing activities during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to a $31.9$19.9 million increase in capital expenditures. The increase in capital expenditures was primarily driven by an increase in growth capital expenditures on contract operations services contracts in the Latin America region.

Financing Activities.  The increase in net cash provided by financing activities during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to an increase in net borrowings of $22.5$41.0 million on our long-term debt, partially offset by an increase of $17.8$37.8 million in purchases of treasury stock.

Capital Requirements.  Our contract operations business is capital intensive, requiring significant investment to maintain and upgrade existing operations. Our capital spending is primarily dependent on the demand for our contract operations services and the availability of the type of equipment required for us to render those contract operations services to our customers. Our capital requirements have consisted primarily of, and we anticipate will continue to consist of, the following:
growth capital expenditures, which are made to expand or to replace partially or fully depreciated assets or to expand the operating capacity or revenue generating capabilities of existing or new assets, whether through construction, acquisition or modification; and
maintenance capital expenditures, which are made to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and related cash flows further extending the useful lives of the assets.


Table of Contents

The majority of our growth capital expenditures are related to installation costs on contract operations services projects and acquisition costs of new compressor units and processing and treating equipment that we add to our contract operations fleet. In addition, growth capital expenditures can include the upgrading of major components on an existing compressor unit where the current configuration of the compressor unit is no longer in demand and the compressor unit is not likely to return to an operating status without the capital expenditures. These latter expenditures substantially modify the operating parameters of the compressor unit such that it can be used in applications for which it previously was not suited. Maintenance capital expenditures are related to major overhauls of significant components of a compressor unit, such as the engine, compressor and cooler, that return the components to a “like new” condition, but do not modify the applications for which the compressor unit was designed.

We generally invest funds necessary to manufacture contract operations fleet additions when our idle equipment cannot be reconfigured to economically fulfill a project’s requirements and the new equipment expenditure is expected to generate economic returns over its expected useful life that exceeds our targeted return on capital. We currently plan to spend approximately $200$190 million to $210$200 million in capital expenditures during 2019, including (1) approximately $165$155 million on contract operations growth capital expenditures and (2) approximately $35 million to $40 million on equipment maintenance capital related to our contract operations business and other capital expenditures.
 
Long-Term Debt. We and our wholly owned subsidiary, Exterran Energy Solutions, L.P. (“EESLP”), are parties to an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) consisting of a $700.0 million revolving credit facility expiring in October 2023.

During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, the average daily outstanding borrowings of long-term debt were $502.9$508.8 million and $431.8$455.3 million, respectively. The weighted average annual interest rate on outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility at JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018 was 4.2%4.1% and 3.9%4.0%, respectively. LIBOR and certain other “benchmarks” are the subject of recent national, international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. In particular, on July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, publicly announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. It is unclear whether, at that time, LIBOR will cease to exist or if new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established. Central banks and regulators in a number of major jurisdictions (for example, U.S., United Kingdom, European Union, Switzerland, and Japan) have convened working groups to find and implement the transition to suitable replacement benchmarks. We are in the beginning stages of creating a program that focuses on identifying, evaluating, and monitoring financial and non-financial risks that may result if LIBOR rates are no longer published after 2021.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we had $90.0$126.0 million in outstanding borrowings and $22.2$23.0 million in outstanding letters of credit under our revolving credit facility. At JuneSeptember 30, 2019, taking into account guarantees through letters of credit, we had undrawn capacity of $587.8$551.0 million under our revolving credit facility. Our Amended Credit Agreement limits our senior secured leverage ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) on the last day of the fiscal quarter to no greater than 2.75 to 1.0. As a result of this limitation, $528.6$472.9 million of the $587.8$551.0 million of undrawn capacity under our revolving credit facility was available for additional borrowings as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019.

The Credit Agreement contains various covenants with which we, EESLP and our respective restricted subsidiaries must comply, including, but not limited to, limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness, investments, liens on assets, repurchasing equity, making distributions, transactions with affiliates, mergers, consolidations, dispositions of assets and other provisions customary in similar types of agreements. We are required to maintain, on a consolidated basis, a minimum interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 2.25 to 1.00; a maximum total leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 4.50 to 1.00; and a maximum senior secured leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 2.75 to 1.00. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we maintained an 8.1a 7.2 to 1.0 interest coverage ratio, a 2.02.3 to 1.0 total leverage ratio and a 0.40.6 to 1.0 senior secured leverage ratio. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Agreement.

In April 2017, our 100% owned subsidiaries EESLP and EES Finance Corp. issued $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.125% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (the “2017 Notes”). TheWe guarantee the 2017 Notes are guaranteed by us on a senior unsecured basis. We may redeem the 2017 Notes at any time in cash, in whole or part, at certain redemption prices, including the applicable make-whole premium plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.

We may from time to time seek to retire, extend or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such extensions, repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Historically, we have financed capital expenditures with a combination of net cash provided by operating and financing activities. Our ability to access the capital markets may be restricted at the time when we would like, or need, to do so, which could have an adverse impact on our ability to maintain our operations and to grow. If any of our lenders become unable to perform their obligations under the Credit Agreement, our borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility could be reduced. Inability to borrow additional amounts under our revolving credit facility could limit our ability to fund our future growth and operations. Based on current market conditions, we expect that net cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to finance our operating expenditures, capital expenditures and other contractual cash obligations, including our debt obligations. However, if net cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under our revolving credit facility are not sufficient, we may seek additional debt or equity financing.

Unrestricted Cash. Of our $17.2$22.0 million unrestricted cash balance at JuneSeptember 30, 2019, $15.6$21.3 million was held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries. In the event of a distribution of earnings to the U.S. in the form of dividends, we may be subject to foreign withholding taxes. We do not believe that the cash held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries has an adverse impact on our liquidity because we expect that the cash we generate in the U.S., the available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility and the repayment of intercompany liabilities from our non-U.S. subsidiaries will be sufficient to fund the cash needs of our U.S. operations for the foreseeable future.

Share Repurchase Program. On February 20, 2019, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to purchase up to $100.0 million of its outstanding common stock through February 2022. The timing and method of any repurchases under the program will depend on a variety of factors, including prevailing market conditions among others. Purchases under the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time and we have no obligation to repurchase any amount of our common shares under the program. Shares of common stock acquired through the repurchase program are held in treasury at cost. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we repurchased 1,290,0783,054,338 shares of our common stock for $18.8$38.9 million in connection with our share repurchase program. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2019, the remaining authorized repurchase amount under the share repurchase program was $81.2$61.1 million.

Dividends.  We do not currently anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain our future earnings to support the growth and development of our business. The declaration of any future cash dividends and, if declared, the amount of any such dividends, will be subject to our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, financial covenants, applicable law and other factors our board of directors deems relevant.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
We define EBITDA, as adjusted, as net income (loss) excluding income (loss) from discontinued operations (net of tax), cumulative effect of accounting changes (net of tax), income taxes, interest expense (including debt extinguishment costs), depreciation and amortization expense, impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, non-cash gains or losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes recorded on intercompany obligations, expensed acquisition costs and other items. We believe EBITDA, as adjusted, is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare our core operating results from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from our outstanding debt), asset base (depreciation and amortization), our subsidiaries’ capital structure (non-cash gains or losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes on intercompany obligations), tax consequences, impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, expensed acquisition costs and other items. Management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measures and performance measures for period to period comparisons. In addition, the compensation committee has used EBITDA, as adjusted, in evaluating the performance of the Company and management and in evaluating certain components of executive compensation, including performance-based annual incentive programs. Our EBITDA, as adjusted, may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate EBITDA in the same manner.

EBITDA, as adjusted, is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Items excluded from EBITDA, as adjusted, are significant and necessary components to the operation of our business, and, therefore, EBITDA, as adjusted, should only be used as a supplemental measure of our operating performance.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to our significant international operations. While the majority of our revenue contracts are denominated in the U.S. dollar, certain contracts or portions of certain contracts, most notably within our contract operations segment, are exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Approximately 20% of revenues in our contract operations segment are denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. The currencies for which we have our largest exchange rate exposures are related to changes in the Argentine Peso and the Brazilian Real. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, the Argentine Peso depreciated by approximately 11%34% and Brazilian Real appreciated by approximately 1%7%. The impact of foreign currency risk on income for these contracts is generally mitigated by matching costs with revenues in the same currency.

Additionally, the net assets and liabilities of these operations are exposed to changes in currency exchange rates. These operations may also have net assets and liabilities not denominated in their functional currency, which exposes us to changes in foreign currency exchange rates that impact income. We recorded foreign currency gainslosses of $0.4$2.7 million and foreign currency losses of $5.7$6.4 million in our statements of operations during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our foreign currency gains and losses are primarily due to exchange rate fluctuations related to monetary asset balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency, including foreign currency exchange rate changes recorded on intercompany obligations. Our material exchange rate exposure relates to intercompany loans to subsidiaries whose functional currency are the Brazilian Real and Canadian Dollar, which loans carried U.S. dollars balances of $8.3$3.9 million and $21.1$23.4 million, respectively, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019. Foreign currency gains and losses included translation gains of $1.0$0.2 million and translation losses of $4.1$4.2 million during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to the functional currency remeasurement of our foreign subsidiaries’ non-functional currency denominated intercompany obligations. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019, we entered into forward currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposures in U.S. dollars related to the Argentine Peso, Brazilian Real and Indonesian Rupiah. As a result of entering into these contracts, we recognized losses of 0.8$0.8 million during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2019. Changes in exchange rates may create gains or losses in future periods to the extent we maintain net assets and liabilities not denominated in the functional currency.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act included in this Quarterly Report as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2.

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of JuneSeptember 30, 2019. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and made known to our principal executive officer and principle financial officer, on a timely basis to ensure that it is recoded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
 
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, it believes that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and arbitration proceedings, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Contemporaneously with filing the Form 8-K on April 26, 2016, we self-reported the errors and possible irregularities at Belleli EPC to the SEC. On April 8, 2019, the SEC provided written notice to us stating that based on the information they have as of this date, they have concluded their investigation and do not intend to recommend enforcement action by the SEC against us in connection with this matter.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors
 
There have been no material changes or updates to our risk factors that were previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
