Nature of Operations
Orbital Energy Group, Inc. (Orbital Energy Group, "OEG," "The Company") is a platform company composed of three segments, the Electric Power and Solar Infrastructure Services segment, the Integrated Energy Infrastructure Solutions and Services segment, and the Other segment. In 2019, the Company divested of most of its previous Power and Electromechanical segment and the remaining portion of that segment was divested in 2020. The Other segment represents the remaining activities that are not included as part of the other reportable segments and represent primarily corporate activity.
The Electric Power and Solar Infrastructure Services segment consists of Orbital Solar Services based in Sanford, North Carolina, Orbital Power Services ("OPS") based in Dallas, Texas, Eclipse Foundation Group based in Gonzales, Louisiana, and Gibson Technical Services ("GTS") based in Atlanta, Georgia. The segment provides comprehensive network solutions to customers in the electric power, telecom and solar industries. Orbital Solar Services provides engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services that support the development of renewable energy generation focused on utility-scale solar construction. The Company serves a wide variety of project types, including commercial, substation, solar farms and public utility projects. Services performed by Orbital Power Services generally include the design, installation, upgrade, repair and maintenance of electric power transmission and distribution infrastructure and substation facilities as well as emergency restoration services, including the repair of infrastructure damaged by inclement weather. Eclipse Foundation Group, which began operations in January 2021, is a drilled shaft foundation construction company that specializes in providing services to the electric transmission and substation (drilled piers), industrial, communication towers and disaster restoration market sectors, with expertise in water, marsh and rock terrains. GTS provides engineering, design, construction and maintenance services to the broadband and wireless telecommunication industries and was acquired by the Company effective April 13, 2021.
The Company’s Integrated Energy Infrastructure Solutions and Services segment is made up of Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. (Orbital-UK) and Orbital Gas Systems, North America, Inc. (Orbital North America), collectively referred to as ("Orbital Gas Systems"). Orbital-UK is based in the United Kingdom and Orbital North America is based in Houston, Texas. Orbital Gas Systems is a provider of natural gas infrastructure and advanced technology, including metering, odorization, remote telemetry units (‘‘RTU’’) and provides a diverse range of personalized gas engineering solutions to the gas utilities, power generation, emissions, manufacturing and automotive industries. GasPT® and VE Technology® products are sold through Orbital Gas Systems.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information, which includes condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
It is management's opinion that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made, which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the remaining quarters or year ending December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimates used to review the Company’s impairments and estimations of long-lived assets, revenue recognition on cost-to-cost-method type contracts, inventory valuation, warranty reserves, valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances, valuation for acquisitions, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, note receivable interest imputation, and the incremental borrowing rate used in determining the value of right of use assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different conditions.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2020 segment classifications in order to conform to the 2021 presentation.
Company Conditions
Orbital Solar Services has seen increasing customer opportunities including its association with the Black Sunrise Investment fund. The fund has identified through its investors and others, several projects of scale and for which Orbital Solar Services is expected to be awarded significant work. Orbital Power Services began operations during the first quarter of 2020 with work progressing under master service agreements with several new customers. Eclipse Foundation Group began operations in January 2021 and has begun work on projects for utility customers. The Company purchased GTS in the second quarter of 2021 and the acquisition had positive gross margins during the quarter. GTS is expected to be accretive in future quarters. Orbital Gas Systems, Ltd. continues to face issues surrounding COVID-19, Brexit and the overall economy in the United Kingdom. Orbital Gas Systems, North America, Inc. has experienced a significant delay in customer projects and orders related to COVID-19 and the impact of pricing pressure on oil and gas industry customers.
The Company had a net loss of $26.2 million, a negative gross margin of $2.5 million, and cash used in operating activities of $22.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, our accumulated deficit is $175.8 million and we had negative working capital of $11.9 million.
Goodwill
Upon acquisition of Reach Construction Group, LLC, (name changed to Orbital Solar Services) the Company recorded $7.0 million of goodwill. Goodwill was valued as of April 1, 2020 by a third-party valuation expert and was recorded following the recognition of Orbital Solar Service's tangible assets and liabilities and $13.7 million of finite-lived identifiable intangible assets. Factors that contributed to the Company's goodwill are Orbital Solar Service's skilled workforce and reputation within its industry. The Company also expected to achieve future synergies between the Orbital Solar Services and Orbital Power Services businesses. These synergies were expected to be achieved in the form of power line work necessary when bringing new solar power systems online.
Upon acquisition of GTS, the Company recorded $12.3 million of goodwill. Goodwill was valued as of April 13, 2021 by a third-party valuation expert and was recorded following the recognition of GTS's tangible assets and liabilities and $22.8 million of identifiable intangible assets. Factors that contributed to the Company's goodwill are GTS's skilled workforce and reputation within its industry. Future synergies are expected with OPS with possibilities including shared equipment, shared engineering labor and telecommunication line work from OPS.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company completed a quantitative analysis to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting units were less than their carrying amount, including goodwill. To complete the review, management evaluated the fair value of the Goodwill and considered all known events and circumstances that might trigger an impairment of goodwill. The review of goodwill, prepared as of May 31, 2021, determined that there were not indicators present to suggest that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Orbital Solar Services reporting unit was less than its carrying amount and thus no impairment was necessary during the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

COVID-19 Assessment and Liquidity
In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the current coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the United States and other countries across the world, and the duration and severity of its effects can be severe. While the Company expects the effects of the pandemic to negatively impact its results from operations, cash flows and financial position, the current level of uncertainty over the economic and operational impacts of COVID-19 means the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company has experienced customer delays and extensions for projects, supply chain delays, furloughs of personnel, increased utilization of telework, increased safety protocols to address COVID-19 risks, decreased field service work and other impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. While the economic effects of COVID-19 are beginning to subside as a higher percentage of people become vaccinated, the highly transmissible delta variant and the slowing rates of vaccination has caused there to be uncertainty regarding the future affects of the pandemic. Events and changes in circumstances arising after June 30, 2021, including those resulting from the impacts of COVID-19, will be reflected in management’s estimates for future periods.
Management believes the Company's present cash flows along with access to additional debt and equity raises will meet its obligations for twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. Including our cash balance, we continue to manage working capital primarily related to trade accounts receivable, notes receivable, prepaid assets, contract assets and our inventory less current liabilities that we will manage during the next twelve months. In 2020 and the first six months of 2021, the Company has entered into various long and short-term debt agreements (Note 16. Notes Payable). In addition, the Company has secured funding and has an available S-3 registration statement allowing the Company to issue various types of securities including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants, up to an aggregate amount of $150 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2021, the Company utilized its registration statement and issued an updated prospectus to issue 10,410,959 additional common shares for an additional $38 million in proceeds before expenses, allowing for up to $112 million on its registration statement to be utilized in the future. The Company used $17.1 million of these proceeds on the acquisition of IMMCO, Inc. in July 2021, which is expected to be immediately accretive to earnings. Considering these above factors, management believes the Company can meet its obligations for the twelve-month period from the date the financial statements are available to be issued.
The Company’s available capital may be consumed faster than anticipated due to other events, including the length and severity of the global novel coronavirus disease pandemic and measures taken to control the spread of COVID-19, as well as changes in and progress of our development activities and the impact of commercialization efforts due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company may seek to obtain additional capital as needed through equity financings, debt or other financing arrangements, but given the impact of COVID-19 on the U.S. and global financial markets, the Company may be unable to access further equity or debt financing when needed. As such, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital when needed or under acceptable terms, if at all. The sale of additional equity may dilute existing shareholders and newly issued shares may contain senior rights and preferences compared to currently outstanding common shares.
Restructuring Charges
During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company completed the sale of its largest group within the Power and Electromechanical segment. The Company completed the sale of its Japan operations as of September 30, 2020. In conjunction with the 2019 sale, it was concluded that should the remaining power and electromechanical operations not sell, the Company will fulfill its backlog obligations and wind down the remaining operations of CUI-Canada during 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had remaining an accrued liability for estimated employee termination costs of $0.4 million related to the discontinued operations. The Company paid out an additional $0.3 million of termination benefits in the first six months of 2021 and expect the remaining $0.1 million to be paid out during the remainder of 2021.
Activity in the termination benefit liability in 2021 is as follows:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
Our significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" within Item 8 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2021. Changes to the Company's accounting policies are discussed below:
Adoption of new accounting standards
On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions related to contract modifications and hedge accounting to address the transitions from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance permits an entity to consider contract modification due to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. ASU 2020-04 also temporarily allows hedge relationships to continue without de-designation upon changes due to reference rate reform. The standard is effective upon issuance and can be applied as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. There was not a material effect on the Company's financial statements due to the Company not having any current financial instruments that are affected by this new guidance.
On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 clarifies the interaction between accounting standards related to equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivatives, and is expected to reduce diversity in practice and increase comparability of the accounting for these interactions. The amendments in ASU 2020-01 are effective for the Company's 2021 fiscal year, including interim periods. The new guidance does not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements due to the Company currently not having any equity-method investments or any derivative instruments.
On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is guidance intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes, eliminate certain exceptions within ASC 740 and clarify certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. The pronouncement is effective for the Company's 2021 fiscal year, including interim periods. The ASU does not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND SALE OF A BUSINESS
|
As part of the Company’s previously stated strategy to transform Orbital Energy Group, Inc. into a diversified infrastructure services platform serving North American and U.K. customers, in 2019 the Company’s Board of Directors made the decision to divest of its Power and Electromechanical businesses. On September 30, 2019, Orbital Energy Group, Inc. entered into an asset sale agreement by and among, CUI, Inc. ("Seller"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Parent"), and Back Porch International, Inc. ("Buyer") to sell the Company’s Electromechanical business to a management led group. In November 2019, Orbital Energy Group, Inc. entered into an asset sale agreement by and among, the Seller and Bel Fuse, Inc. to sell the domestic Power supply business. Both sales closed in 2019. On September 30, 2020, the Company sold the CUI Japan operations to Back Porch International for approximately $163 thousand. The assets of the Company's CUI-Canada subsidiary were divested in the fourth quarter of 2020.
The associated results of operations of the discontinued Power and Electromechanical segment are separately reported as Discontinued Operations for 2020 on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Cash flows from these discontinued businesses are included in the Condensed Consolidated Cash Flow statements. See below for additional information on operating and investing cash flows of the discontinued operations. Results from continuing operations for the Company and segment highlights exclude the former Power and Electromechanical segment, which is included in these discontinued operations.
The former Power and Electromechanical segment consisted of the wholly owned subsidiaries: CUI, Inc. (CUI), based in Tualatin, Oregon; CUI Japan, based in Tokyo, Japan; CUI-Canada, based in Toronto, Canada; and the entity that previously held the corporate building, CUI Properties. The subsidiaries were providers of power and electromechanical components for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).
Selected data for these discontinued businesses consisted of the following:

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
|
The Electric Power and Solar Infrastructure Services segment provides full service building, maintenance and support to the electrical power distribution, transmission, substation, renewables, and emergency response sectors of North America through Orbital Power Services and Eclipse Foundation Group. Orbital Solar Services provides engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) services that support the development of renewable energy generation focused on utility scale solar and community solar construction, and Gibson Technical Services provides technical implementation, maintenance, emergency and repair support services in the broadband, wireless, and outside plant and building technologies.
The Integrated Energy Infrastructure Solutions and Services segment subsidiaries, collectively referred to as Orbital Gas Systems, generate their revenue from a portfolio of products, services and resources that offer a diverse range of personalized gas engineering solutions to the gas utilities, power generation, petrochemical, emissions, manufacturing and automotive industries among others.
Orbital Gas Systems accounts for a majority of its contract revenue proportionately over time. For our performance obligations satisfied over time, we recognize revenue by measuring the progress toward complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion can be either an input method or an output method and requires judgment based on the nature of the goods or services to be provided.
For our construction contracts, revenue is generally recognized over time. Our construction projects generally use a cost-to-cost input method or an output method to measure our progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as we believe these methods best depict the transfer of control to the customer. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Under the output method, progress towards completion is measured based on units or hours of work completed.
The timing of revenue recognition for Integrated Energy Infrastructure products also depends on the payment terms of the contract, as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to us. For those contracts where the Company's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced or for which we have a right to payment for performance completed to date at all times throughout our performance, inclusive of a cancellation, we recognize revenue over time. These performance obligations use a cost-to-cost input method to measure our progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as we believe it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. However, for those contracts for which we do not have a right, at all times, to payment for performance completed to date and we are not enhancing a customer controlled asset, we recognize revenue at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer, generally when the product is shipped.
For our service contracts, revenue is also generally recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our performance as we perform the service. For our fixed price service contracts with specified service periods, revenue is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over such service period when our inputs are expended evenly, and the customer receives and consumes the benefits of our performance throughout the contract term.
Due to uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, it is possible that estimates of costs to complete a performance obligation will be revised in the near-term. For those performance obligations for which revenue is recognized using a cost-to-cost input method, changes in total estimated costs, and related progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation, are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions to the estimates are made. When the current estimate of total costs for a performance obligation indicates a loss, a provision for the entire estimated loss on the unsatisfied performance obligation is made in the period in which the loss becomes evident.
Under the output method, revenue is determined by actual work achieved. For time and materials jobs, revenue is recognized based on the output of hours of work completed multiplied by the contractual agreed upon rate per hour. For the remainder of jobs under the output method, revenue is earned based on each unit in the contract completed. We construct comprehensive revenue calculations based on quantifiable measures of actual units completed multiplied by the agreed upon contract prices per item completed. Revenue is also generally recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our performance as we perform the service.
Product-type contracts (for example, sale of GasPT units) for which revenue does not qualify to be recognized over time are recognized at a point in time. Revenues from extended warranty and maintenance activities are recognized ratably over the term of the warranty and maintenance period. Extended warranties are not a material portion of our revenue.
Accounts Receivable, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
Accounts receivable are recognized in the period when our right to consideration is unconditional. We also assess our customer's ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including our historical payment experience with and the financial condition of our customers. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although our standard terms include a requirement of payment within 30 days. Accounts receivable are recognized net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.
The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contract assets include unbilled amounts from our construction projects when revenue recognized under the cost-to-cost or output method measure of progress exceed the amounts invoiced to our customers, as the amounts cannot be billed under the terms of our contracts. Such amounts are recoverable from our customers based upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units or completion of a contract. Also included in contract assets are retainage receivables and amounts we seek or will seek to collect from customers or others for errors or changes in contract specifications or design, contract change orders or modifications in dispute or unapproved as to both scope and/or price or other customer-related causes of unanticipated additional contract costs (claims and unapproved change orders). Our contract assets do not include capitalized costs to obtain and fulfill a contract. Contract assets are generally classified as current within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contract liabilities from our construction contracts occur when amounts invoiced to our customers exceed revenues recognized under the cost-to-cost or output method measure of progress. Contract liabilities additionally include advanced payments from our customers on certain contracts and provision for future contract losses for those contracts estimated to close in a gross loss position. Contract liabilities decrease as we recognize revenue from the satisfaction of the related performance obligation and are recorded as either current or long-term, depending upon when we expect to recognize such revenue.
Balances and activity in the current contract liabilities as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was as follows:

Performance Obligations
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price of contracts with customers for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts. As of June 30, 2021, the Company's remaining performance obligations are generally expected to be filled within the next 12 months.
Any adjustments to net revenues, cost of revenues, and the related impact to operating income are recognized as necessary in the period they become known. These adjustments may result from positive program performance, and may result in an increase in operating income during the performance of individual performance obligations, if we determine we will be successful in mitigating risks surrounding the technical, schedule and cost aspects of those performance obligations. Likewise, these adjustments may result in a decrease in operating income if we determine we will not be successful in mitigating these risks. Changes in estimates of net revenues, cost of revenues and the related impact to operating income are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period they become known, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a performance obligation's percentage of completion. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our performance obligations. For separately priced extended warranty or product maintenance performance obligations, when estimates of total costs to be incurred on the performance obligation exceed total estimates of revenue to be earned, a provision for the entire loss on the performance obligation is recognized in the period the loss is determined.
Performance Obligations Satisfied Over Time
To determine the proper revenue recognition method for our contracts, we evaluate whether a single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and the decision to separate the single contract into multiple performance obligations could change the amount of revenue and profit recorded in a given period.
For most of our contracts, the customer contracts with us to provide a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project or capability (even if that single project results in the delivery of multiple units). Hence, the entire contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. Less commonly, however, we may promise to provide distinct goods or services within a contract in which case we separate the contract into more than one performance obligation. If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, we allocate the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation. We infrequently sell standard products with observable standalone sales. In cases where we do, the observable standalone sales are used to determine the standalone selling price. More frequently, we sell a customized customer specific solution, and in these cases we typically use the expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.
Performance Obligations Satisfied at a Point in Time
Revenue from goods and services transferred to customers at a single point in time accounted for 13% and 20% of revenues for the three month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and 16% and 26% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Revenue on these contracts is recognized when the product is shipped and the customer takes control of the product. Determination of control transfer is typically determined by shipping terms delineated on the customer purchase orders and is generally when shipped.
Variable Consideration
The nature of our contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration. In rare instances, we include in our contract estimates, additional revenue for submitted contract modifications or claims against the customer when we believe we have an enforceable right to the modification or claim, the amount can be estimated reliably and its realization is probable. In evaluating these criteria, we consider the contractual/legal basis for the claim, the cause of any additional costs incurred, the reasonableness of those costs and the objective evidence available to support the claim. These amounts are included in our calculation of net revenue recorded for our contracts and the associated remaining performance obligations. Additionally, if the contract has a provision for liquidated damages in the case that the Company misses a timing target, or fails to meet any other contract benchmarks, we account for those estimated liquidated damages as variable consideration and will adjust revenue accordingly with periodic updates to the estimated variable consideration as the job progresses. Liquidated damages are recognized as variable consideration only when we estimate that they will be a factor in the performance of the contract and are not common.
Significant Judgments
Our contracts with certain customers may be subject to contract cancellation clauses. Contracts with other cancellation provisions may require judgment in determining the contract term, including the existence of material rights, transaction price and identifying the performance obligations and whether a contract should be accounted for over time or on a completed contract basis. Revenue is recognized for certain projects over time using cost-based input methods, in which significant judgement is required to evaluate assumptions including the amount of total estimated costs to determine our progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize.
At times, customers may request changes that either amend, replace or cancel existing contracts. Judgment is required to determine whether the specific facts and circumstances within the contracts require the changes to be accounted for as a separate contract or as a modification. Generally, contract modifications containing additional goods and services that are determined to be distinct and sold at their stand-alone selling price are accounted for as a separate contract. For contract modifications where goods and services are not determined to be distinct and sold at their stand-alone selling price, the original contract is updated and the required adjustments to revenue and contract assets, liabilities, and other accounts will be made accordingly.
Our contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately rather than together may require significant judgment. For, example, we consider many of our contracts that coordinate multiple products into an integrated system to be a single performance obligation, while the same products would be considered separate performance obligations if not so integrated.
In contracts where there are timing differences between when we transfer a promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, we have determined that, our contracts do not include a significant financing component.

OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
|
In January 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of the VE Technology rights, which it has previously utilized the VE Technology through a licensing agreement with Endet Ltd. Orbital Gas Systems has the existing proprietary knowledge for the marketing, engineering and production of the VE Technology based solutions. The VE Technology, amortized over ten years, is the basis for a patented sampling system product line marketed by Orbital Gas Systems and utilized in many of its integrated solutions.
In 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the intellectual property rights and know-how associated with the VE Technology including patents for 1.5 million British pounds ("GBP"), or approximately $1.8 million. The completion of the acquisition was made upon the final payment towards this agreement. In June 2020, the parties to the agreement mutually agreed to extend the payments until January 15, 2021 in consideration of the financial consequences created by the COVID-19 pandemic in exchange for a technology fee of an additional 100,000 GBP. The Company paid the remaining 500,000 GBP in January 2021. The $1.9 million paid was recorded as an intangible asset upon making the final payment in January 2021 with $0.7 million paid in 2021 and $1.2 million reclassified from long-term deposits.
Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method as a cost flow convention or through the moving average cost method. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, accrued liabilities included $0.2 million and $0.1 million of accrued inventory payable, respectively. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, inventory by category is valued net of reserves and consists of:

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had a minority ownership in Virtual Power Systems ("VPS"). Prior to the third quarter of 2020, based on its equity ownership and that the Company maintains a board seat and participated in operational activities of VPS, the Company maintained significant influence to account for the investment as an equity-method investment. Under the equity method of accounting, results are not consolidated, but the Company records a proportionate percentage of the profit or loss of VPS as an addition to or a subtraction from the VPS investment asset balance. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a $0.4 million loss on its equity method investment in VPS. The VPS investment basis at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively, as reflected on the consolidated balance sheets. With the decrease in ownership percentage following a Q3 2020 equity raise by VPS and additional board seats placed, OEG no longer has sufficient influence to recognize the investment under the equity method. The investment is held at June 30, 2021 under the cost method of accounting for investments.
The Company made a purchase of a convertible note receivable for $200 thousand from VPS in the six months ended June 30, 2020, which is reflected in investing cash flows on the consolidated statement of cash flows.
Consolidated total lease costs were $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and is included in cost of sales; selling, general and administrative expense; and other income (expense), on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND EXPENSE
|
The Company records its stock-based compensation expense on options issued in the past under its stock option plans and the Company also issues stock for services and royalties. The Company's current stock incentive award plan was approved in 2020 following the expiration of its previous stock incentive award plan in 2018. The Company did not issue any stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020. A detailed description of the awards under these plans and the respective accounting treatment is included in the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and filed with the SEC on March 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $8.1 million and $7 thousand, respectively.
Restricted Stock
In March 2021, the Company granted 3 million restricted shares for employee compensation with an aggregate fair value of $16.4 million with a graded vesting schedule. One-third of which were vested in April 2021, one-third of which will vest in April 2022, and one-third of which will vest in April 2023. The Company recorded $4.6 million and $6.6 million in compensation expense related to the partial vesting of these grants in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and total unrecognized share-based compensation for restricted stock was $9.8 million and will be recognized over the remaining vesting period.
Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs")
In addition to stock-based compensation settled in stock, the Company also has cash settled stock appreciation rights ("SARs") which were granted in June 2020 as described in the Company's Form 10-K filed March 30, 2021 and additional grant made in April 2021 as reflected in the table below. Accrued compensation for SARs at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $3.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively and were recorded in accrued expenses within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Vesting expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively, compared with $27 thousand, and $27 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and was recorded within selling, general and administrative expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The fair value of cash-settled SARs is revalued (mark-to-market) each reporting period using a binomial lattice valuation model based on the company’s period-end stock price. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the company’s stock for the length of time corresponding to the expected term of the SARs. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S treasury yield curve in effect as of the reporting date for the length of time corresponding to the expected term of the SARs.
The following weighted-average assumptions were used in calculating the fair value of cash-settled SARs outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Operating segments are defined in accordance with ASC 280-10 as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The measurement basis of segment profit or loss is income (loss) from operations. Management has identified three operating segments based on the activities of the Company in accordance with ASC 280-10. These operating segments have been aggregated into three reportable segments. The three reportable segments are Electric Power and Solar Infrastructure Services, Integrated Energy Infrastructure Solutions and Services, and Other.
The Electric Power and Solar Infrastructure Services segment consists of Orbital Solar Services based in Sanford, North Carolina, Orbital Power Services based in Dallas, Texas, Eclipse Foundation Group based in Gonzales, Louisiana, and GTS based in Atlanta, GA. The segment provides comprehensive network solutions to customers in the electric power, telecom and solar industries.
The Integrated Energy Infrastructure Solutions and Services segment is focused on the operations of Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. in the UK and Orbital Gas Systems, North America, Inc. which includes gas related test and measurement systems, including the GasPT.
The Other segment represents the remaining activities that are not included as part of the other reportable segments and represent primarily corporate activity. In 2019, the Company sold its domestic power and electromechanical businesses and reclassified the income of the former Power and Electromechanical segment to income from discontinued operations. The Company sold the remaining portions of the Power and Electromechanical segment in 2020.

LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
|
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260 (“FASB ASC 260”), “Earnings per Share,” Basic loss from continuing operations per share, basic income from discontinued operations per share and basic net income (loss) per share that is available to shareholders is computed by dividing the income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the respective loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period calculated using the treasury stock method. Due to the Company’s loss from continuing operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the assumed exercise of stock options and the unvested restricted stock that would otherwise increase diluted shares using the treasury stock method would have had an antidilutive effect and therefore 0.2 million shares related to stock options outstanding at June 30, 2021 and 2 million shares of restricted stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 0.8 million shares related to stock options outstanding at June 30, 2020 were excluded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Accordingly, diluted earnings (loss) per share for continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income is the same as basic earnings (loss) per share for continuing operations, discontinued operations and net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company continues to record a full valuation allowance against the Company's U.S. and foreign net deferred tax assets as it is not more likely than not that the Company will realize a benefit from these assets in a future period. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management concludes realization of such amounts is more likely than not.
Total net income tax benefit of $9.0 million and $8.9 million was recorded to the income tax provision from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 52.2% and 25.5%, respectively. The income tax benefit from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was as a result of the Company's purchase price allocation related to the April 2021 acquisition of GTS, the Company recorded a $9.0 million deferred tax liability.

On November 13, 2020, the Company completed a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Investor an unsecured convertible instrument in the principal amount of $2.2 million (the “Convertible Security” or “Note”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) against the payment of the applicable consideration therefore. Upon the closing on November 13, 2020, the Company received gross proceeds of $2.2 million before fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, including but not limited to, a $0.2 million original issue discount payable to the Investor. The net proceeds received by the Company was used primarily for working capital, debt repayment and general corporate purposes. The Note is payable in full within eighteen (18) months after the purchase price date in accordance with the terms set forth in the Note and accrues interest on the outstanding balance at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the Purchase Price Date until the Note is paid in full. All interest shall compound daily and shall be payable in accordance with the terms of the Note. Company has the right to prepay all or any portion of the outstanding balance in an amount equal to 115% multiplied by the portion of the outstanding balance to be prepaid. The creditor may request payment of up to $250 thousand per month beginning 6 months after initial issuance. Original issue discount is amortized over the expected life of the investment at an effective interest rate of approximately 29%. The Company elected the fair value option for this note and as a result did not bifurcate any potential embedded derivatives. In February 2021, the Company negotiated modified terms which effectively removed the convertible option from the note and the Company recorded a $250 thousand loss on extinguishment and its carrying value was $2.4 million at June 30, 2021. See Note 12 for more information on the fair value of this note payable. On March 23, 2021, the Company completed a second note payable with the same institutional investor with a face amount of $10.7 million, a stated interest rate of 9.0%, an estimated effective interest rate of 19.6%, an original issue discount of $1.0 million and a carrying value of $10.2 million at June 30, 2021. The note payable is payable within eighteen (18) months after the purchase date and the creditor may request payment of up to $1 million per month beginning 6 months after initial issuance. On May 11, 2021, the Company completed a third note purchase agreement with the institutional investor with a face amount of $10.7 million, a stated interest of 9% per annum and a combined original issue discount and unamortized prepaid fees of $1.0 million and a carrying value of $10.0 million at June 30, 2021. The net proceeds were to be used for working capital, future acquisitions and general corporate purposes. Beginning six (6) months from the purchase price date, Investor has the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to redeem all or any portion of the Note (such amount, the “Redemption Amount”) subject to the maximum monthly redemption amount of $1,000,000 per calendar month, by providing Company with a “Redemption Notice," and is payable in full within 18 months of issuance.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
|
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Performance and Payment Bonds and Parent Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, Orbital Energy Group and its subsidiaries are required by certain customers to provide performance and payment bonds for contractual commitments related to its projects. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of a contract and that the Company will pay its subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under a contract or to pay its subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company must reimburse the surety for expenses or outlays it incurs. Certain bonds are for open-ended contracts with multiple work orders so the value may increase as the work progresses and more work orders are started. The bonds will remain in place as the Company completes projects and resolves any disputed matters with the customers, vendors and subcontractors related to the bonded projects. As of June 30, 2021 the total amount of the outstanding performance and payment bonds was approximately $1.2 million.
Additionally, from time to time, we guarantee certain obligations and liabilities of our subsidiaries that may arise in connection with, among other things, contracts with customers, equipment lease obligations, and contractor licenses. These guarantees may cover all of the subsidiary’s unperformed, undischarged and unreleased obligations and liabilities under or in connection with the relevant agreement. For example, with respect to customer contracts, a guarantee may cover a variety of obligations and liabilities arising during the ordinary course of the subsidiary’s business or operations, including, among other things, warranty and breach of contract claims, third-party and environmental liabilities arising from the subsidiary’s work and for which it is responsible, liquidated damages, or indemnity claims.
Contingent Liabilities
Orbital Energy Group, Inc. is occasionally party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, negligence or gross negligence and/or property damages, wage and hour and other employment-related damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief.
Regarding all lawsuits, claims and proceedings, Orbital Energy Group, Inc. records a reserve when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Other than the reserve on the item described below, the Company currently has no such reserves. In addition, Orbital Energy Group, Inc. discloses matters for which management believes a material loss is at least reasonably possible. Except as otherwise stated below, none of these proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on Orbital Energy Group, Inc.’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In all instances, management has assessed the matter based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, considering the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. Management’s judgment may prove materially inaccurate, and such judgment is made subject to the known uncertainties of litigation.
Exchange agreement to partially pay off note payable
On July 20, 2021, the Company issued 248,509 shares of common stock to an institutional investor, and creditor of the Company in exchange for $1 million to decrease the outstanding balance of a $2.2 million loan originated in November 2020.
Share issuances in a registered offering
On July 21, 2021, the Company issued 10,410,959 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $3.65 per share and $38 million in total before fees to institutional investors with a supplemental prospectus under the S-3 the Company filed in February 2021.
Paycheck Protection Loan Forgiveness
On July 22, 2021, the Company was notified that the Paycheck Protection Program loan acquired as part of the GTS acquisition in the amount of $1.4 million was forgiven. Upon forgiveness, the Company's contingent receivable for the same amount was satisfied with no gain or loss incurred.
Acquisition
On July 28, 2021, the Company’s telecommunication subsidiary, GTS, entered into a definitive share purchase agreement to acquire 100% of IMMCO, Inc. (“IMMCO”), and Atlanta-based privately-owned full-service telecom engineering and network design company providing diversified engineering services and customized software solutions to a global customer base since 1992.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the share purchase agreement, the base purchase price for 100% of the equity ownership of IMMCO is $20,000,000, with the consideration structured as follows:
|
●
|
$16.0 million in cash paid at closing less the amount needed to pay certain outstanding debt of IMMCO, and plus or minus the amount needed for estimated closing working capital to equal a 3 to 1 ratio; and
|
|
●
|
874,317 shares of restricted common stock issued to the IMMCO shareholders with an aggregate value of $4,000,000 based upon a per share value of $4.575.
|
|
●
|
The Share purchase agreement provides for the adjustment of the selling price to adjust the final closing working capital at the acquisition date as a post-closing adjustment for net working capital above or below the 3-1 ratio for the closing working capital ratio estimated on the acquisition date and to be finalized within 45 days after the closing date of July 28, 2021. At closing, an additional $1.1 million in cash was paid based on the preliminary closing net working capital.
|
The acquisition will immediately add revenues and earnings to GTS and to OEG. IMMCO will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of GTS, significantly expanding GTS’s product portfolio and services it can provide to its customers. The Company has not completed the initial purchase price allocation for this transaction as it is still in the preliminary stages of assessing the fair value of the underlying tangible and intangible assets.
