Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “Interim Statements”) include the accounts of the Company and of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These Interim Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 were derived from audited financial statements for the year then ended but do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP with respect to annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the Interim Statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. The Company revised its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 to reclassify the Series B Preferred Stock dividend from Accumulated Deficit to Additional Paid-In Capital. It is recommended that these Interim Statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year or for any future period.

Resegmentation

The Company has combined the leadership responsibility and full accountability for the Industrial Services and Specialty Services operating segments. As a result, beginning in 2022, the information for the legacy Industrial Services segment was combined with the legacy Specialty Services segment to form a new operating and reportable segment called Specialty Services. Accordingly, the Company presents financial information for the Safety Services and Specialty Services segments, the two operating segments and also the reportable segments. The Company's chief operating decision maker regularly reviews financial information to allocate resources and assess performance utilizing these reorganized segments.

Certain prior year amounts have been recast to conform to the current year presentation. Throughout these Interim Statements, unless otherwise indicated, amounts and activity reflect reclassifications related to the Company's resegmentation, as described in Note 21 - "Segment Information."

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash is reported as restricted cash and other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Restricted cash reflects collateral against certain bank guarantees and amounts held in escrow.

Investments

The Company holds investments in joint ventures which are accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company does not exercise control over the joint ventures. The Company’s share of earnings from the joint ventures was $1 during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and $1 and $2 during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The earnings are recorded within investment income and other, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The investment balances were $3 and $4 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and are recorded within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Pension and post-retirement obligations

The Company's accounting policies related to pension and post-retirement obligations are disclosed in Note 15 - "Pension".
