Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), a Delaware corporation, is a global oilfield products company, serving the drilling, downhole, subsea, completions and production sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. The Company's products include highly engineered capital equipment as well as products that are consumed in the drilling, well construction, production and transportation of oil and natural gas. Forum is headquartered in Houston, TX with manufacturing and distribution facilities strategically located around the globe.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with the current year presentation.

Prior to the sale of our aggregate 40% interest in the third quarter of 2019, our investment in Ashtead Technology (”Ashtead”) was accounted for using the equity method of accounting as we had the ability to exert significant influence, but did not control operating and financial policies. Prior to the sale, our share of the net income (loss) from Ashtead was reported in “Loss from equity investment” in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss and the investment was included in “Investment in unconsolidated subsidiary” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our share of equity earnings were reported within operating income (loss), as the investee’s operations were integral to the operations of the Company. See Note 4 Dispositions for further information related to the sale of our aggregate 40% interest in Ashtead.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or any other interim period.

These interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, which are included in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020.

COVID-19 Impacts

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the current COVID-19 outbreak to be a global pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency. In response to these declarations and the rapid spread of COVID-19, federal, state and local governments have imposed varying degrees of restrictions on business and social activities to contain COVID-19, including quarantine and “stay-at-home” orders in the areas in which we operate. We have experienced resulting disruptions to our business operations, as these restrictions have significantly impacted many sectors of the economy, with businesses curtailing or ceasing normal operations. The ultimate impacts will depend on future developments, including, among others, the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the consequences of governmental and other measures designed to prevent the spread of the virus, the development of effective treatments, the duration of the outbreak, actions taken by governmental authorities, customers, suppliers and other thirds parties, workforce availability, and the timing and extent to which normal economic and operating conditions resume. While we continue to assess the COVID-19 situation and cannot estimate with any degree of certainty the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our liquidity, financial condition and future results of operations, we expect the COVID-19 situation to adversely impact future quarters.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which we adopt as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2020

Financial Instruments—Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), which introduced an expected credit loss methodology for the impairment of financial assets measured at amortized cost basis. It requires an entity to estimate credit losses expected over the life of an exposure based on historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. We adopted this new standard as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard resulted in a noncash cumulative effect adjustment to increase our allowance for doubtful accounts and increase our retained deficit by $1.4 million. The new standard did not materially affect our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Accounting for Implementation Costs Related to a Cloud Computing Arrangement. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract. This new guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred by an entity related to a cloud computing arrangement with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. Accordingly, this guidance requires an entity to capitalize certain implementation costs incurred and then amortize them over the term of the cloud hosting arrangement. Furthermore, this guidance also requires an entity to present the expense, cash flows, and capitalized implementation costs in the same financial statement line items as the associated hosting service. We adopted this new standard as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurement Disclosure. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirement for Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance eliminated, modified and added certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. We adopted this new standard as of January 1, 2020. This new standard did not have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

Income Tax. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Disclosure Framework - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplified the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of Topic 740 and clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance will take effect for public companies with fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance. However, we currently expect that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenue

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. For a detailed discussion of our revenue recognition policies, refer to the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Disaggregated Revenue

Refer to Note 11 Business Segments for disaggregated revenue by product line and geography.

Contract Balances

Contract balances are determined on a contract by contract basis. Contract assets represent revenue recognized for goods and services provided to our customers when payment is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. Similarly, we record a contract liability when we receive consideration, or such consideration is unconditionally due, from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a sales contract. Such contract liabilities typically result from billings in excess of costs incurred on construction contracts and advance payments received on product sales.

The following table reflects the changes in our contract assets and contract liabilities balances for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (in thousands):

	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019		Decrease
					$		%
Accrued revenue	$	1,226	$	1,260
Costs and estimated profits in excess of billings	2,739		4,104
Contract assets	$	3,965	$	5,364	$	(1,399)	(26)	%
Deferred revenue	$	5,708	$	4,877
Billings in excess of costs and profits recognized	4,876		5,911
Contract liabilities	$	10,584	$	10,788	$	(204)	(2)	%

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, our contract assets decreased by $1.4 million primarily due to a reduction in project revenues within our Production Equipment product line. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, our contract liabilities decreased by $0.2 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized revenue of $5.5 million that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

As all of our contracts are less than one year in duration, we have elected to apply the practical expedient which allows an entity to exclude disclosures about its remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.

4. Dispositions

2019 Disposition of Cooper Alloy®

On December 4, 2019, we sold certain assets of our Cooper Alloy® brand of valve products for total consideration of $4.0 million and recognized a gain on disposition totaling $2.3 million. Pro forma results of operations for this disposition have not been presented because the effects were not material to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

2019 Disposition of Equity Interest in Ashtead Technology

On September 3, 2019, we sold our aggregate 40% interest in Ashtead to the majority owners of Ashtead. Total consideration for Forum’s 40% interest and the settlement of a £3.0 million British Pounds note receivable from Ashtead was $47.7 million. Forum received $39.3 million in cash proceeds and a new £6.9 million British Pounds note receivable with a three year maturity. In the third quarter of 2019, we recognized a gain of $1.6 million as a result of this transaction. Pro forma results of operations for this transaction have not been presented because the effects were not material to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

7. Impairments of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets with definite lives are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic and associated preventative actions taken around the world to mitigate the virus's spread caused oil demand to deteriorate and economic activity to decrease. As a result, oil prices declined significantly during the period and were exacerbated by aggressive increases in production by Saudi Arabia, Russia and other OPEC+ oil producing nations. The combination of these shocks in both supply and demand created an extremely challenging market for all sub-sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. In addition, responses to the spread of COVID-19, including significant government restrictions on movement, are continuing to drive sharp declines in global economic activity.

As a result, we determined that certain long-lived assets were impaired as their carrying values exceeded their fair values. We recognized the following impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2020 (in thousands):

Impairments of:	Drilling & Downhole		Completions		Production		Total Impairments
Property and equipment (1)	$	1,076	$	9,608	$	1,378	$	12,062
Intangible assets (2)	5,258		—		—		$	5,258
Operating lease right of use assets (3)	1,429		6,139		1,915		$	9,483
Total impairments	$	7,763	$	15,747	$	3,293	$	26,803

⁽¹⁾ These charges are included in Impairments of intangible assets, property and equipment in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

⁽²⁾ These charges are included in Impairments of intangible assets, property and equipment in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss and include primarily customer relationships, technology and distributor relationships.

⁽³⁾ $8.6 million of these charges are included in Cost of sales and $0.9 million is included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

The amount of the impairment charges were measured as the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value of the assets. The fair value was determined either through analysis of discounted future cash flows or, for certain real estate, based on a third party's sales price estimate (classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy).

8. Debt

Notes payable and lines of credit as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of the following (in thousands): 

	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019

Less: current maturities	(1,021)		(717)
Long-term debt	$	444,936	$	398,862

Senior Notes Due 2021

In October 2013, we issued $300.0 million of 6.25% senior unsecured notes due 2021 at par, and in November 2013, we issued an additional $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of the notes at a price of 103.25% of par (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.25% per annum, payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, and mature on October 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations, and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Facility and rank junior to, among other indebtedness, the Credit Facility to the extent of the value of the collateral securing the Credit Facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased an aggregate $10.9 million of principal amount of our Senior Notes for $3.4 million and recognized a net gain of $7.5 million reflecting the difference in the amount paid and the net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including debt issuance costs and unamortized debt premium. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we announced a cash tender offer to purchase an aggregate payment amount of up to $80.0 million (exclusive of accrued and unpaid interest) of our Senior Notes. For further discussion, refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section in Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.

Credit Facility

Our credit facility ("Credit Facility") provides revolving credit commitments of $300.0 million (with a sublimit of up to $45.0 million available for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries) (the “U.S. Line”), of which up to $30.0 million is available to certain of our Canadian subsidiaries for loans in U.S. or Canadian dollars (with a sublimit of up to $3.0 million available for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of our Canadian subsidiaries) (the “Canadian Line”). Lender commitments under the Credit Facility, subject to certain limitations, may be increased by an additional $100.0 million. The Credit Facility matures in July 2021, but if our outstanding Senior Notes due October 2021 are refinanced or replaced with indebtedness maturing in or after February 2023, the final maturity of the Credit Facility will automatically extend to October 2022.

Availability under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to eligible accounts receivable in the U.S., Canada and certain other jurisdictions (subject to a cap) and eligible inventory in the U.S. and Canada. Our borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility could be reduced or eliminated, depending on future fluctuations in our receivables and inventory. As of March 31, 2020, our total borrowing base was $234.0 million, of which $55.0 million was drawn and $26.4 million was used for security of outstanding letters of credit, resulting in remaining availability of $152.6 million.

Borrowings under the U.S. Line bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) the LIBOR rate or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the rate of interest per annum determined from time to time by Wells Fargo as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in San Francisco, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (iii) the one-month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00% per annum, in each case plus an applicable margin. Borrowings under the Canadian Line bear interest at a rate equal to, at Forum Canada’s option, either (a) the CDOR rate or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the greater of (i) the prime rate for Canadian

13

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

(Unaudited)

dollar commercial loans made in Canada as reported from time to time by Thomson Reuters and (ii) the CDOR rate plus 1.00%, in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for LIBOR and CDOR loans will initially range from 1.75% to 2.25%, depending upon average excess availability under the Credit Facility. After the first quarter in which our total net leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.00:1.00, the applicable margin for LIBOR and CDOR loans will range from 1.50% to 2.00%, depending upon average excess availability under the Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rate under the Credit Facility was approximately 2.70% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

The Credit Facility also provides for a commitment fee in the amount of (a) 0.375% per annum on the unused portion of commitments if average usage of the Credit Facility is greater than 50% and (b) 0.500% per annum on the unused portion of commitments if average usage of the Credit Facility is less than or equal to 50%. After the first quarter in which our total leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.00:1.00, the commitment fees will range from 0.25% to 0.375%, depending upon average usage of the Credit Facility.

If excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below the greater of 10% of the borrowing base and $20.0 million, we will be required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00:1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter until excess availability under the Credit Facility exceeds such thresholds for at least 60 consecutive days.

Deferred Loan Costs

We have incurred loan costs that have been deferred and are amortized to interest expense over the term of the Senior Notes and the Credit Facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we wrote off $1.8 million of deferred loan costs due to the termination of discussions related to a potential exchange offer for our Senior Notes.

Other Debt

Other debt consists primarily of various capital leases.

Letters of Credit and Guarantees

We execute letters of credit in the normal course of business to secure the delivery of product from specific vendors and also to guarantee our fulfillment of performance obligations relating to certain large contracts. We had $27.2 million and $24.5 million in total outstanding letters of credit as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

9. Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a tax benefit of $14.4 million compared to tax expense of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

For interim periods, our income tax expense or benefit is computed based upon our estimated annual effective tax rate and any discrete items that impact the interim periods. The estimated annual effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were impacted by losses in jurisdictions where the recording of a tax benefit is not available.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act provides relief to corporate taxpayers by permitting a five-year carryback of 2018-2020 NOLs, increasing the 30% limitation on interest expense deductibility to 50% of adjusted taxable income for 2019 and 2020, and accelerating refunds for minimum tax credit carryforwards, among other provisions. The tax effects of changes in tax laws are recognized in the period in which the law is enacted. As such, the tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes a $16.6 million benefit related to a carryback claim for U.S. federal tax losses based on new provisions in the CARES Act. These losses had previously been offset by a valuation allowance. The provisions in the CARES Act enable the company to now realize these losses and the related valuation allowance has been released. Furthermore, the tax expense or benefit recorded can vary from period to period depending on the Company's relative mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings and losses by jurisdiction.

We have deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards in the U.S. and in certain states and foreign jurisdictions. We recognize deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning and recent operating results. As of March 31, 2020, we do not anticipate being able to fully utilize all of the losses prior to their

14

(Unaudited)

expiration in the following jurisdictions: the U.S., the U.K., Germany, Singapore and Saudi Arabia. As a result, we have certain valuation allowances against our deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2020.

10. Fair Value Measurements

The Company had $55.0 million and zero borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Credit Facility incurs interest at a variable interest rate, and therefore, the carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of the debt is classified as a Level 2 measurement because interest rates charged are similar to other financial instruments with similar terms and maturities.

The fair value of our Senior Notes is estimated using Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy and is based on quoted prices for those or similar instruments. At March 31, 2020, the fair value and the carrying value of our Senior Notes approximated $123.6 million and $388.1 million, respectively. At December 31, 2019, the fair value and the carrying value of our Senior Notes approximated $354.0 million and $397.5 million, respectively.

There were no other outstanding financial assets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 that required measuring the amounts at fair value. We did not change our valuation techniques associated with recurring fair value measurements from prior periods, and there were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is, and in the future could be, involved in various pending or threatened legal actions that may or may not be covered by insurance. Management has reviewed such pending judicial and legal proceedings and the availability and limits of insurance coverage, and has established reserves that are believed to be appropriate in light of those outcomes that are considered to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. The reserves accrued at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, are immaterial. It is management’s opinion that the Company’s ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13. Earnings Per Share

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for each period presented was as follows (dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020		2019
Net loss	$	(37,144)	$	(7,888)
Basic - weighted average shares outstanding	111,173		109,643
Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock	—		—
Diluted - weighted average shares outstanding	111,173		109,643
Loss per share
Basic	$	(0.33)	$	(0.07)
Diluted	$	(0.33)	$	(0.07)

The calculation of diluted loss per share excludes all potentially dilutive shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 as there were net losses for these periods.

14. Stockholders' Equity

Stock-based compensation

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company granted 2,250,360 shares of restricted stock units that vest ratably over 3 years.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company granted performance awards with a market condition that are payable in either cash or shares of the Company's common stock. The performance awards granted may settle for between zero and three times the award's cash target amount. The award amount issued pursuant to the performance award agreements will be determined based on the total shareholder return of the Company’s common stock as compared to a group of peer companies measured over a three year performance period. As our intention is to settle the awards in cash, we will account for these as liability classified awards. As such, compensation expense will be recognized over the requisite three-year service period with subsequent changes in the estimated fair value of the award recognized as a cumulative adjustment to compensation cost in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.

15. Related Party Transactions

The Company has sold and purchased equipment and services to and from certain affiliates of our directors. The dollar amounts related to these related party activities are not material to the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Overview

We are a global oilfield products company, serving the drilling, downhole, subsea, completions and production sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. We design, manufacture and distribute products and engage in aftermarket services, parts supply and related services that complement our product offering. The Company's products include highly engineered capital equipment as well as products that are consumed in the drilling, well construction, production and transportation of oil and natural gas. Our product offering includes a mix of frequently replaced consumable products and highly engineered capital products. Our consumable products are used in drilling, well construction and completions activities, within the supporting infrastructure, and at processing centers and refineries. Our engineered capital products are directed at: drilling rig equipment for new rigs, upgrades and refurbishment projects; subsea construction and development projects; pressure pumping equipment; the placement of production equipment on new producing wells; and downstream capital projects. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately 84% of our revenue was derived from consumable products and activity-based equipment, while the balance was primarily derived from capital products with a small amount from rental and other services.

We seek to design, manufacture and supply high quality reliable products that create value for our diverse customer base, which includes, among others, oil and natural gas operators, land and offshore drilling contractors, oilfield service companies, subsea construction and service companies, and pipeline and refinery operators.

A summary of the products and services offered by each segment is as follows:

•Drilling & Downhole. This segment designs and manufactures products and provides related services to the drilling, well construction, artificial lift and subsea energy construction and services markets as well as other sectors such as alternative energy, defense and communications. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) capital equipment and a broad line of expendable drilling products consumed in the drilling process; (ii) well construction casing and cementing equipment, protection products for artificial lift equipment and cables, and composite plugs used for zonal isolation in hydraulic fracturing; and (iii) subsea remotely operated vehicles and trenchers, specialty components and tooling, products used in subsea pipeline infrastructure, and complementary subsea technical services.

•Completions. This segment designs, manufactures and supplies products and provides related services to the coiled tubing, stimulation and intervention markets. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) capital and consumable products sold to the pressure pumping, hydraulic fracturing and flowback services markets, including hydraulic fracturing pumps, pump consumables, cooling systems and flow iron as well as wireline cable, and pressure control equipment used in the well completion and intervention service markets; and (ii) coiled tubing strings and coiled line pipe and related services.

24

•Production. This segment designs, manufactures and supplies products and provides related equipment and services for production and infrastructure markets. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) engineered process systems, production equipment, as well as specialty separation equipment; and (ii) a wide range of industrial valves focused on serving upstream, midstream, and downstream oil and natural gas customers as well as power and other general industries.

Market Conditions

The level of demand for our products is directly related to the activity levels and the capital and operating budgets of our customers, which in turn are heavily influenced by energy prices and expectations as to future price trends. In addition, the availability of existing capital equipment adequate to serve exploration and production requirements, or lack thereof, drives demand for our capital equipment products.

During the first quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic and associated preventative actions taken around the world to mitigate the spread of the virus caused oil demand to deteriorate and economic activity to decrease. As a result, oil prices declined significantly during the period and were exacerbated by aggressive increases in production by Saudi Arabia, Russia and other OPEC+ oil producing nations. The combination of these shocks in both supply and demand created an extremely challenging market for all sub-sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. In addition, responses to the spread of COVID-19, including significant government restrictions on movement, are continuing to drive sharp declines in global economic activity.

The number of rigs drilling for oil and natural gas in North America and the level of hydraulic fracturing and other well completion activities are drivers for our revenue from this region. Due to the deteriorating market conditions in the first quarter of 2020, activity levels slowed significantly in the North America market, which caused a material reduction in demand for many of our products and thus, our revenue. In addition to lower oil prices, North America oil storage is nearing full capacity due to the rapid decline in oil demand. As a result, exploration and production companies are under pressure to reduce existing production and minimize capital and maintenance expenditures. We expect this to have a significant negative impact on demand for our products and results of operations in the next several quarters.

Activity levels in international regions, as well as global offshore and subsea activity, are also impacted by COVID-19 related activity disruptions. However, international revenue for our drilling and subsea capital equipment offerings are not expected to decline as rapidly due to longer project timelines for international drilling customers and diversification of our subsea product line revenue outside of the oil and natural gas industry. Despite this, we anticipate that revenue for our international regions will continue to remain far below the level achieved during the last newbuild cycle due to lower oil demand and oversupply of relatively new or recently upgraded equipment.

Revenue for our Valve Solutions product line is also affected by energy prices, but to a lesser extent compared to our other product lines, resulting in relatively more stable operating and financial results over the long-term. Worldwide oil and natural gas industry demand for valves is driven by planned investments in refinery and petrochemical projects, as well as the construction of additional pipeline capacity. Revenue for our Valve Solutions product line has been under pressure due to our distribution customers increased focus on decreasing the amount of valves in their inventories in order to generate positive free cash flow. We expect the impacts of COVID-19 on the global economy to also negatively impact demand for our valves products.

Our manufacturing facilities and business operations have not experienced work stoppages due to COVID-19 or resulting government regulations. However, certain of our key suppliers, including for our valves and coiled tubing product offerings, are located in China which has adversely impacted our supply chain. We are taking several actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the decline in demand for our products amidst the collapse in oil prices and drilling and completions activity. We have implemented several measures to protect our workforce, including requiring many of our employees to work from home and more active monitoring of the health of employees physically working in our manufacturing and distribution facilities. In addition, we have initiated several cost reduction actions, including lowering headcount, reducing salaries for executive officers and the broader workforce, suspension of the Company's matching contribution to the U.S. and Canada defined contribution plans, furloughs for select employee groups and closing certain facilities.

The table below shows average crude oil and natural gas prices for West Texas Intermediate crude oil (“WTI”), United Kingdom Brent crude oil (“Brent”), and Henry Hub natural gas:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,		December 31,		March 31,
	2020		2019		2019
Average global oil, $/bbl
West Texas Intermediate	$	45.34	$	56.84	$	54.82
United Kingdom Brent	$	50.27	$	63.27	$	63.10
Average North American Natural Gas, $/Mcf
Henry Hub	$	1.90	$	2.39	$	2.92

The price of oil decreased sharply over the first three months of 2020 with the spot prices for WTI and Brent falling from $61.14 and $67.77 per barrel, respectively, as of December 31, 2019 to $20.51 and $14.85 per barrel, respectively, as of March 31, 2020. Prices remained depressed at the beginning of the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the production surpluses and limitations on storage availability. Natural gas prices also declined in the first quarter of 2020 with average price levels approximately 21% and 35% lower compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2019, respectively.

The table below shows the average number of active drilling rigs, based on the weekly Baker Hughes Incorporated rig count, operating by geographic area and drilling for different purposes.

A substantial portion of our revenue is impacted by the level of rig activity and the number of wells completed. The average U.S. rig count for the first quarter of 2020 was 4% and 25% lower compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2019, respectively. The U.S. rig count was 664 at the end of the first quarter 2020. Since then, the number of working rigs has fallen to 408 rigs as of May 1, 2020. Active rig levels for the remainder of 2020 are projected to continue to decline below the previous trough of 404 rigs which was reached in the second quarter of 2016.

Beginning in 2018, the U.S. government imposed tariffs on imports of selected products, including those sourced from China. In response, China and other countries have imposed retaliatory tariffs on a wide range of U.S. products, including those containing steel and aluminum. These tariffs have caused our cost of raw materials to increase, primarily in our Coiled Tubing and Valve Solutions product lines. In response, we are taking actions to mitigate the impact, including through diversification of our supply chain and applying for tariff exemptions for certain products.

Revenue

Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $182.6 million, a decrease of $89.2 million, or 32.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our Drilling & Downhole, Completions, and Production segments comprised 42.0%, 27.6%, and 30.4% of our total revenue, respectively, which compared to 31.6%, 34.6%, and 33.8% of our total revenue, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The overall decline in revenue is primarily related to lower sales volumes in the U.S. market due to the significant decrease in U.S. drilling and completions activity levels. The changes in revenue by operating segment consisted of the following:

Drilling & Downhole segment — Revenue was $76.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $9.3 million, or 10.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was driven by a $5.5 million decrease in revenue for our Downhole Technologies product line due to lower sales volumes of well construction equipment, partially offset by continued sales volume growth for our artificial lift products. Revenue for our Drilling Technologies product line declined by $5.3 million due to lower sales volumes of consumable products and capital equipment as a result of lower U.S. rig activity. These declines were partially offset by a $1.5 million increase in revenue for our Subsea product line due to higher sales of capital equipment to customers outside the oil and natural gas industry.

Completions segment — Revenue was $50.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $43.8 million, or 46.3%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease includes a $26.8 million decrease in revenue for our Stimulation and Intervention product line mainly attributable to lower capital and operating spending by our pressure pumping service customers due to the significant decline in hydraulic fracturing activity levels in the U.S. The remaining decline was driven by a $17.0 million decrease in sales volumes for our Coiled Tubing product line primarily attributable to lower U.S. completions activity and, to a lesser extent, the completion of a significant international coiled line pipe project in the first quarter of 2019.

Production segment — Revenue was $55.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $36.4 million, or 39.6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was driven by an $18.6 million decline in sales volumes of our valve products, particularly sales into the North America upstream and midstream oil and natural gas market, and a $17.8 million decrease in revenue for our Production Equipment product line as a result of lower sales volumes of our surface production equipment due to a decline in well completions activity.

Segment operating income (loss) and segment operating margin percentage

Segment operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $38.1 million, a decline of $38.4 million compared to segment operating income of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, segment operating margin percentage was (20.8)% compared to 0.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Segment operating margin percentage is calculated by dividing segment operating income (loss) by revenue for the period. The change in operating margin for each segment is explained as follows:

Drilling & Downhole segment — Segment operating loss was $4.1 million, or (5.4)%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to a loss of $2.5 million, or (2.9)%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The $1.6 million increase in segment operating loss is primarily attributable to $3.0 million of inventory write-downs and $1.6 million of employee severance costs for the three months ended March 31, 2020 partially offset by a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily bad debt expense due to improved collections.

Completions segment — Segment operating loss was $17.3 million, or (34.1)%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to segment operating income of $6.9 million, or 7.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decline in segment operating results is due to decreased operating leverage on lower sales volumes of our well stimulation and coiled tubing products. In addition, segment operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes $6.1 million of impairments of operating lease right of use assets, $5.5 million of inventory write-downs, and $1.3 million of employee severance costs.

Production segment — Segment operating loss was $8.2 million, or (14.7)%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to segment operating income of $4.3 million, or 4.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decline in segment operating results is due to decreased operating leverage on lower sales volumes. In addition, segment operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes $3.1 million of inventory write-downs, $1.9 million of impairments of operating lease right of use assets and $1.0 million of employee severance costs. These declines in segment operating results were partially offset by a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily lower employee related costs as a result of cost reduction actions.

29

Corporate — Selling, general and administrative expenses for Corporate were $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, in line with the three months ended March 31, 2019. A decrease in employee related costs due to reductions in headcount was offset by higher professional fees. Corporate costs include, among other items, payroll related costs for management, administration, finance, legal, and human resources personnel; professional fees for legal, accounting and related services; and marketing costs.

Other items not included in segment operating income (loss)

Several items are not included in segment operating income (loss), but are included in total operating income (loss). These items include transaction expenses, impairments of intangible assets, property and equipment, and loss (gain) on the disposal of assets and other. Transaction expenses relate to legal and other advisory costs incurred in acquiring or disposing of businesses and are not considered to be part of segment operating income (loss). 

In the first quarter of 2020, there was a significant decline in oil prices and a deteriorating outlook for industry market conditions with further declines forecasted for drilling and completions activity. As a result, we recognized non-cash impairment charges of $17.3 million including impairments of $12.1 million of property and equipment and $5.3 million of intangible assets.

The $4.6 million contingent consideration benefit recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2019 is related to reducing the estimated fair value of the contingent cash liability associated with the acquisition of Houston Global Heat Transfer LLC.

Other income and expense

Other income and expense includes interest expense, foreign exchange losses (gains) and other, gain on extinguishment of debt and deferred loan costs written off. We incurred $6.7 million of interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $1.5 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 due to lower average outstanding balances on our revolving credit facility.

The foreign exchange gains are primarily the result of movements in the British pound and Euro relative to the U.S. dollar. These movements in exchange rates create foreign exchange gains or losses when applied to monetary assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the location’s functional currency, primarily U.S. dollar denominated cash, trade account receivables and net intercompany receivable balances for our entities using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased an aggregate $10.9 million of principal amount of our Senior Notes for $3.4 million and recognized a net gain of $7.5 million reflecting the difference in the amount paid and the net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including debt issuance costs and unamortized debt premium. In addition, we wrote off $1.8 million of deferred loan costs due to the termination of discussions related to a potential exchange offer for our Senior Notes.

Taxes

We recorded a tax benefit of $14.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to a tax expense of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The estimated annual effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were impacted by losses in jurisdictions where the recording of a tax benefit is not available.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act provides relief to corporate taxpayers by permitting a five-year carryback of 2018-2020 NOLs, increasing the 30% limitation on interest expense deductibility to 50% of adjusted taxable income for 2019 and 2020, and accelerating refunds for minimum tax credit carryforwards, among other provisions. The tax effects of changes in tax laws are recognized in the period in which the law is enacted. As such, the tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes a $16.6 million benefit related to a carryback claim for U.S. federal tax losses based on new provisions in the CARES Act. These losses had previously been offset by a valuation allowance. The provisions in the CARES Act enable the company to now realize these losses and the related valuation allowance has been released. Furthermore, the tax expense or benefit recorded can vary from period to period depending on the Company’s relative mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings and losses by jurisdiction.

Liquidity and capital resources

Sources and uses of liquidity

Our internal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and cash flows from operations, while our primary external sources include trade credit and our Credit Facility and Senior Notes described below. Our primary uses of capital have been for inventories, sales on credit to our customers and ongoing maintenance and growth capital expenditures. We continually monitor potential capital sources, including equity and debt financing, to meet our investment and target liquidity requirements. Our future success and growth will be highly dependent on our ability to continue generating positive operating cash flow and access to outside sources of capital.

As of March 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $108.9 million and $152.6 million of availability under our Credit Facility. Availability under our Credit Facility will fluctuate directionally based on the level of our eligible accounts receivable and inventory. We also expect to receive a cash refund for income taxes in 2020 of approximately $14.3 million from filing a carryback claim for U.S. federal tax losses based on new provisions in the CARES Act.

We anticipate that our future working capital requirements for our operations will fluctuate directionally with revenues. In addition, we expect total 2020 capital expenditures to be less than $5.0 million, consisting of, among other items, replacing end of life machinery and equipment and investments in our enterprise resource planning solution.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased an aggregate $10.9 million of principal amount of our Senior Notes for $3.4 million and recognized a net gain of $7.5 million reflecting the difference in the amount paid and the net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including debt issuance costs and unamortized debt premium. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, we initiated a tender offer to purchase an additional amount of our Senior Notes for aggregate consideration of up to $80.0 million and we drew an additional $30.0 million on our Credit Facility. Our Credit Facility matures in July 2021, but if our outstanding Senior Notes due October 2021 are refinanced or replaced with indebtedness maturing in or after February 2023, the final maturity of the Credit Facility will automatically extend to October 2022.

We expect our available cash on-hand, cash generated by operations, including U.S. income tax refunds, and estimated availability under our Credit Facility to be adequate to fund current operations during the next 12 months. Based on existing market conditions and our expected liquidity needs, among other factors, we may use a portion of our cash flows from operations, proceeds from divestitures, securities offerings or borrowings to reduce the principal amount of debt outstanding, and will continue to pursue various opportunities to refinance the remaining Senior Notes outstanding.

To the extent that access to the capital and other financial markets is adversely affected by the effects of COVID-19, we may need to consider alternative sources of funding for some of our operations and for working capital, which may increase the cost of capital. These uncertain economic conditions may also result in the inability of our customers and other counterparties to make payments to us, on a timely basis or at all, which could adversely affect our business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

In 2019, we completed two dispositions for total consideration of $51.7 million. For additional information, see Note 4 Dispositions. We may pursue acquisitions in the future, which may be funded with cash and/or equity. Our ability to make significant additional acquisitions for cash may require us to pursue additional equity or debt financing, which we may not be able to obtain on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 are presented below (in millions):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020		2019
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1.6	$	17.9
Net cash used in investing activities	(0.9)		(3.6)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	51.1		(32.0)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	(0.8)		0.2
Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	51.0	$	(17.5)

31

Net cash provided by operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $17.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decline is primarily attributable to changes in working capital which provided cash of $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to a $11.9 million use of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The remainder of the decline is due to lower operating results. Net income adjusted for non-cash items provided $12.8 million of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $13.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Net cash used in investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2019 due to a $2.7 million reduction in capital expenditures for property an equipment.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $51.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $32.0 million of net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Net cash provided by financing activities includes $55.0 million of borrowings on the revolving Credit Facility partially offset by $3.4 million of cash used to repurchase Senior Notes. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily includes $31.1 million of net repayments of debt.

Senior Notes Due 2021

As of March 31, 2020, our Senior Notes had $389.2 million principal amount outstanding, which bear interest at a rate of 6.25% per annum, payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, and mature on October 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Facility and rank junior to, among other indebtedness, the Credit Facility to the extent of the value of the collateral securing the Credit Facility. See further discussion above regarding repurchases of Senior Notes.

Credit Facility

Our Credit Facility provides revolving credit commitments of $300.0 million, including up to $30.0 million available to certain Canadian subsidiaries of the Company for loans in United States or Canadian dollars, $45.0 million available for letters of credit issued for the account of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries and $3.0 million available for letters of credit issued for the account of Canadian subsidiaries of the Company. Availability under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to eligible accounts receivable in the United States, Canada and certain other jurisdictions (subject to a cap) and eligible inventory in the United States and Canada. Our borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility could be reduced or eliminated, depending on future fluctuations in our receivables and inventory. The Credit Facility matures in July 2021, but if our outstanding Senior Notes due October 2021 are refinanced or replaced with indebtedness maturing in or after February 2023, the final maturity of the Credit Facility will automatically extend to October 2022.

If excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below the greater of 10.0% of the borrowing base and $20.0 million, we will be required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00:1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter until excess availability under the Credit Facility exceeds such thresholds for at least 60 consecutive days.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

As of March 31, 2020, we had no off-balance sheet instruments or financial arrangements, other than letters of credit entered into in the ordinary course of business.

Contractual obligations

Except for the borrowings under the Credit Facility and repayments of Senior Notes discussed above, there have been no other material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and procedures during the three months ended March 31, 2020. For a detailed discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For recent accounting pronouncements, refer to Note 2 Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk

We are currently exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates. From time to time, we may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions to manage or reduce our market risk, but we do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

There have been no significant changes to our market risk since December 31, 2019. For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part II, Item 7(a), “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of March 31, 2020. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Information related to Item 1. Legal Proceedings is included in Note 12 Commitments and Contingencies, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

For additional information about our risk factors, see “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except for the updates below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The recent COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions have had, and are expected to continue to have, a significant impact on our business, and depending on the duration of the pandemic and its effect on the oil and natural gas industry, could have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

The COVID-19 pandemic and associated volatility in the oil and natural gas markets has caused us to incur additional risk. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in unprecedented governmental actions ordering citizens in the United States and countries around the world, including those in which we operate, to “shelter in place,” and issuing “stay at home orders.” As a result of these directives, worldwide demand for oil and natural gas has decreased significantly. In addition, instability among the OPEC+ oil producing countries led to increases in oil production, which exacerbated the already existing surplus in oil. Due to these events, the oil and natural gas industry experienced an unprecedented dual impact of a global oil demand decline coupled with the risk of a substantial increase in supply. WTI oil spot prices decreased from a high of $63 per barrel in early January 2020 to a low of $14 per barrel in late March 2020, a level which had not been experienced since March 1999, with physical markets showing signs of distress as spot prices have been negatively impacted by the lack of available storage capacity. While OPEC+ agreed in April to cut production, downward pressure on commodity prices has continued and could continue for the foreseeable future.

33

These events have directly affected our business and have compounded the impact from many of the risks described in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, including those relating to our customers’ capital spending and trends in oil and natural gas prices. Demand for our products and services has declined and is expected to further decline as our customers continue to revise their capital budgets downwards and swiftly adjust their operations in response to lower commodity prices. In addition, we are facing logistical challenges including border closures, travel restrictions and an inability to commute to certain facilities and job sites, as we provide services and products to our customers. We are also experiencing inefficiencies surrounding stay-at-home orders and remote work arrangements.

Given the nature and significance of the events described above, we are not able to enumerate all potential risks to our business; however, we believe that in addition to the impacts described above, other current and potential impacts of these recent events include, but are not limited to:

•disruption to our supply chain for raw materials essential to our business, including restrictions on importing and exporting products;

•notices from customers, suppliers and other third parties arguing that their non-performance under our contracts with them is permitted as a result of force majeure or other reasons;

•customers may also seek to delay payments, may default on payment obligations and/or seek bankruptcy protection that could delay or prevent collections of certain accounts receivable;

•liquidity challenges, including impacts related to delayed customer payments and payment defaults associated with customer liquidity issues and bankruptcies;

•a credit rating downgrade of our corporate debt and potentially higher borrowing costs in the future;

•cybersecurity issues, as digital technologies may become more vulnerable and experience a higher rate of cyberattacks in the current environment of remote connectivity;

•litigation risk and possible loss contingencies related to COVID-19 and its impact, including with respect to commercial contracts, employee matters and insurance arrangements;

•reduction of our global workforce to adjust to market conditions, including severance payments, retention issues, and an inability to hire employees when market conditions improve;

•costs associated with rationalization of our portfolio of real estate facilities, including possible exit of leases and facility closures to align with expected activity and workforce capacity;

•additional asset impairments, including an impairment of the carrying value of our intangible assets, property and equipment, along with other accounting charges as demand for our services and products decreases;

•infections and quarantining of our employees and the personnel of our customers, suppliers and other third parties in areas in which we operate;

•changes in the regulation of the production of hydrocarbons, such as the imposition of limitations on the production of oil and natural gas by states or other jurisdictions, that may result in additional limits on demand for our products and services;

•actions undertaken by national, regional and local governments and health officials to contain the virus or treat its effects; and

•a structural shift in the global economy and its demand for oil and natural gas as a result of changes in the way people work, travel and interact, or in connection with a global recession or depression.

Given the dynamic nature of these events, we cannot reasonably estimate the period of time that the COVID-19 pandemic and related market conditions will persist, the full extent of the impact they will have on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows or the pace or extent of any subsequent recovery. We anticipate that 2020 will be a challenging year for us, as our customers continue to reduce their capital budgets. Therefore, we expect a substantial decline in activity from levels we experienced in the first quarter of 2020, coupled with downward pressure on the price of our products and services, and corresponding reductions in revenue and operating margins.

The confluence of events described above have had, and are expected to continue to have, a significant impact on our business, and depending on the duration of the pandemic and its effect on the oil and natural gas industry, could

34

have, a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition. For more information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Market Conditions.”
