Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Superior Drilling Products Inc. and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company does not have investments in any unconsolidated subsidiaries.
Unaudited Interim Financial Presentation	Unaudited Interim Financial Presentation These interim consolidated condensed financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and the related footnote disclosures included herein, are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, these unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements, and reflect all adjustments necessary to fairly state the results for such periods. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year ended December 31, 2020. These interim consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 and the notes thereto, which were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount and useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment assessments, share-based compensation expense, and valuation allowances for accounts receivable, inventories, and deferred tax assets.
Covid-19	COVID-19 The COVID-19 pandemic-related reduction in energy demand and the dramatic decline in commodity prices that began in the first quarter of 2020 continued to cause disruptions and volatility in the second and third quarters of 2020. Sharp declines in crude oil and natural gas production along with reduced demand for refined products due to the economic shutdown in the wake of the pandemic affected our business in the second quarter, and we expect will continue to do so in the near term. Further, significant uncertainty remains regarding the duration and extent of the impact of the pandemic on the energy industry. See Note 2 – Liquidity.
Leases	Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires assets and liabilities that arise from all leases to be recognized on the balance sheet for lessees and expanded financial statement disclosures for both lessees and lessors. We adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2020 and elected the modified retrospective transition method and as such, the comparative financial information will not be restated and will continue to be reported under the lease standard in effect during those periods. The adoption of this standard resulted in approximately $270,000 of additional assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet representing the recognition of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liability represents the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, both of which are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments, which reflects the fixed rate at which the Company believes it could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment. See Note 8 – Leases.
Significant Customers	Significant Customers For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, two customers represented 81% of our total revenue during the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, two customers represented 94% of our total revenue during the period.
Significant Vendors	Significant Vendors We had one vendor that represented 13.9% of our purchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The vendor had approximately $72,000 in accounts payable at September 30, 2020 and purchases in the nine months of 2020 from this vendor totaled approximately $554,000. We had one vendor that represented 12% of our purchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This vendor had approximately $218,000 in accounts payable at September 30, 2019 and purchases during the nine months of 2019 from this vendor totaled approximately $772,000.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to the balance sheet to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassifications were within accounts payable and accrued expenses and did not impact net income.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, and requires the use of a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. Early adoption is permitted and entities must adopt the amendment using a modified retrospective approach to the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. For smaller reporting companies, as provided by Accounting Standards Update 2019-10, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842), ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 is currently not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”) - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes. It removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is currently not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
