NOTE 6 – LEASES

We have leases for office equipment and office space. The leases for office equipment are classified as financing leases and the typical term is 36 months. We have the option to extend most office equipment leases, but we do not intend to do so. Accordingly, no extensions have been recognized in the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The office equipment lease payments are not variable and the lease agreements do not include any non-lease components, residual value guarantees, or

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
restrictions. There are no interest rates implicit in the office equipment lease agreements, so we have used our incremental borrowing rate to determine the discount rate to be applied to our financing leases. The weighted average discount rate applied to our financing leases is 4.50% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 20.5 months.

The following table shows the components of financing lease cost:

Financing Lease Cost For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
Amortization of right-of-use assets $ 15,121    $ 33,497   
Interest on lease liabilities 3,375    4,247   
Total financing lease cost $ 18,496    $ 37,744   

The following table reconciles future minimum lease payments to the discounted finance lease liability:

Years ending December 31, Amount
2020 - remaining $ 25,013   
2021 40,921   
2022 12,803   
2023 —   
2024 —   
Thereafter —   
Total future minimum lease payments $ 78,737   
Less: Amount representing interest 3,088   
Present value of future payments $ 75,649   
Current portion $ 45,411   
Long-term portion $ 30,238   

Because our office space leases are short-term, we have elected not to recognize them on our balance sheet under the short-term recognition exemption. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $19,059 and $38,531, respectively, in short-term lease costs associated with office space leases.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company held 3,412,378 shares of its common stock in treasury at a total cost of $5,353,019, respectively.

As of June 30, 2020 , the Company had 279,447 restricted stock units, 252,701 performance based restricted stock units, and 115,200 stock options outstanding with $365,717 in remaining compensation expense to be recognized over the next 2.01 years.

2020 EIP and LTIP

Due to market uncertainties including those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") and the Company's executives have elected to not adopt an executive incentive plan ("EIP") or long-term incentive plan ("LTIP") for 2020. The Board and executives believe this is an appropriate short-term measure that will help to align the Company's cost structure with the current extraordinary market conditions.

2019 EIP

11
PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019
On April 22, 2019, the Board approved the 2019 Executive Incentive Plan (the “2019 EIP”) for Brenton W. Hatch, the Company’s then President and Chief Executive Officer, Ryan W. Oviatt, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Cameron M. Tidball, the Company’s Chief Business Development Officer, Jay G. Fugal, the Company’s Vice President of Operations, and Patrick D. Fisher, the Company’s Vice President of Product Development. The 2019 EIP provided for the potential award of bonuses to the participants based on the Company’s financial performance in fiscal year 2019. On March 4, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved a one-time executive bonus in the amount of $828,787 for meeting targets pursuant to the 2019 EIP. Half of the bonus was paid in cash and half of the bonus was settled by issuing 343,748 shares of common stock under the Company's 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the "2014 Plan") which was fully vested on the date of grant.

Participants were eligible to receive bonuses based upon reaching or exceeding performance goals established by the Board or its Compensation Committee for fiscal 2019. The performance goals in the 2019 EIP were based on the Company’s total revenue, net income, free cash flow, and product development milestones. Each of these performance goals were weighted 25% in calculating bonus amounts.

2019 LTIP

On April 22, 2019 the Board also adopted the 2019 Long-Term Incentive plan (the "2019 LTIP") for certain of the Company's executive officers. The 2019 LTIP consists of total awards of up to 66,213 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to Mr. Oviatt, up to 51,646 RSUs to Mr. Tidball, up to 35,313 RSUs to Mr. Fugal, and up to 24,862 RSUs to Mr. Fisher pursuant to two separate Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements that were entered into between the Company and each participant under the 2014 Plan. One agreement covers 33% of each award recipient’s RSU's that are subject to time-based vesting, and the other agreement covers the remaining 67% of such award recipient’s RSU's that may vest based on performance metrics. Upon vesting, the award agreements entitle the award recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each vested RSU. The vesting period of the 2019 LTIP began on January 1, 2019 and terminates on December 31, 2021.

2017 LTIP

On March 4, 2020, the Board approved a one-time executive bonus that was settled by issuing 16,689 shares of common stock for meeting targets pursuant to the previously announced "2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan", which shares were issued under the 2014 Plan. These shares were fully vested as of March 4, 2020.

2020 RSUs

On June 17, 2020, pursuant to the annual renewal of Director compensation, the Board approved a grant of 270,966 RSUs to Independent Directors. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date or at the Company's next Annual Meeting of Stockholders, whichever is earlier. The awards will result in total compensation expense of $252,000 to be recognized over the vesting period.

2019 RSUs

On March 14, 2019, the Board approved a grant of 85,000 RSUs to various employees. The awards vest annually over five years and will result in a total compensation expense of $149,600 to be recognized over the vesting period.

On June 12, 2019, pursuant to the annual renewal of Director compensation, the Board approved a grant of 183,942 RSUs to Independent Directors. Half of the RSUs vested immediately on the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs vested on the first anniversary of the grant date. The awards have resulted in total compensation expense of $252,000 to be recognized over the vesting period.

2020 Stock Options

On March 17, 2020 (the "Grant Date"), the Board approved a grant of options to purchase 115,200 shares of the Company's common stock at a strike price of $0.81 to various employees (the "Options"). The Options terminate four years from the Grant Date and the Options shall become exercisable as to 1/3 of the shares of common stock covered thereby on each anniversary of the Grant Date for the next three years. The Options will result in a total compensation expense of $40,280 to be recognized over the vesting period.

NOTE 8 – ACQUISITIONS

Millstream Energy Products
On June 18, 2019, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Profire Combustion, Inc., acquired substantially all the assets from Millstream Energy Products, LTD., a Canadian corporation ("MEP"). MEP is a privately-held Canadian company that developed a line of high-performance burners, economy burners, flame arrestor housings, secondary air control plates, and other related combustion components. MEP’s full line of products became available for sale by Profire’s existing sales team immediately after closing of the transaction. These products complement our burner-management system (BMS) product offerings and should enable us to supply a larger portion of the total BMS package sale to our customers.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price of $2,219,782 was funded through existing cash. Of this cash purchase amount $140,257 was held back for 6 months pending satisfaction of seller obligations under the purchase agreement and was settled with the seller on February 20, 2020. The seller is also entitled to receive a 4.5% royalty on proprietary MEP product revenue generated during the next five years.

Profire hired a valuation firm to perform the purchase price allocation based on net assets received and the price paid. Based on the fair value of net assets at the time of purchase, the Company recorded intangible assets in the amount of $990,000 and goodwill of $17,681. Intangible assets include customer relationships, the trade name and developed technology.

The purchase price calculation is a follows:
Cash $ 2,079,525   
Liabilities 140,257   
$ 2,219,782   
The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of purchase:
Accounts receivable $ 207,145   
Inventory 1,119,143   
Intangible assets 990,000
Goodwill 17,681   
Accounts payable (114,187)  
$ 2,219,782   

Transaction and related costs directly related to the acquisition of MEP, consisting primarily of professional fees and integration expenses, have amounted to approximately $136,811, were expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses.

Midflow Services
On August 5, 2019, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of Midflow Services, LLC ("Midflow"). Midflow is based in Millersburg, Ohio. Midflow provides packaged combustion solutions and services to the upstream and midstream oil and gas industry.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase price of $3,439,371 was funded through a combination of existing cash and shares of the Company's common stock. The cash portion of the purchase price includes $500,000 placed in an escrow account for 12 months pending satisfaction of certain obligations under the purchase agreement.

Profire hired a valuation firm to perform the purchase price allocation based on the net assets received and the price paid. Based on the fair value of the net assets at the time of purchase, the Company recorded intangible assets in the amount of $1,110,000 and goodwill of $1,564,000. Intangible assets include customer relationships, the trade name and developed technology.

NOTE 9 – REVENUE

Performance Obligations
Our performance obligations include providing product and servicing our product. We recognize product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product is delivered to the customer. Occasionally, if we are shipping the product on a customer’s account, we recognize revenue when the product has been shipped. At that point in time, the control of the product is transferred to the customer. When we perform service work, we apply the practical expedient that allows us to recognize service revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed. We do not engage in transactions acting as an agent. The time needed to complete our performance obligations varies based on the size of the project; however, we typically satisfy our performance obligations within a few months of entering into the applicable sales contract or service contract.

Our customers have the right to return certain unused and unopened products within 90 days for an appropriate restocking fee. We provide a warranty on some of our products ranging from 90 days to 2 years, depending on the product. See note 5 for the amount accrued for expected returns and warranty claims as of June 30, 2020.

We have elected to use the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4 (regarding recognition of the incremental costs of obtaining a contract) for costs related to contracts that are estimated to be completed within one year. All of our current sales contracts and service contracts are expected to be completed within one year, and as a result, we have not recognized a contract asset account. If we had chosen not to use this practical expedient, we would not expect a material difference in the contract balances. We also did not have any material contract liabilities because we typically do not receive payments in advance of recognizing revenue.

Overview

We are an oilfield technology company providing products that enhance the efficiency, safety, and compliance of the oil and gas industry. We specialize in the engineering and design of burner management systems and solutions used on a variety of oilfield natural-draft fire-tube and forced-air applications. We sell our products and services primarily throughout North America. Our experienced team of industry service professionals also provides supporting services for our products.

Profire Energy, Inc. was established on October 9, 2008, upon the closing of an Acquisition Agreement between The Flooring Zone, Inc. and Profire Combustion, Inc. and the shareholders of Profire Combustion, Inc. (the "Subsidiary"). Following the closing of the transactions, The Flooring Zone, Inc. was renamed Profire Energy, Inc. (the "Parent"). As a result of the transaction, the Subsidiary became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent and the shareholders of the Subsidiary became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Parent was incorporated on May 5, 2003 in the State of Nevada. The Subsidiary was incorporated on March 6, 2002 in the Province of Alberta, Canada.

Principal Products and Services

Across the energy industry, there are numerous demands for heat generation and control.  Applications such as combustors, enclosed flares, gas production units, treaters, glycol and amine reboilers, indirect line-heaters, heated tanks, and process heaters require heat as part of their production or processing functions. This heat is generated through the process of combustion which must be controlled, managed and supervised. Combustion and the resulting generation of heat are integral to the process of separating, treating, storing, and transporting oil and gas. Factors such as petroleum's specific gravity, the presence of hydrates, temperature and hydrogen sulfide content contribute to the need for heat in oil and gas production and processing applications. Our burner-management systems ignite, monitor, and manage pilots and burners that are utilized in this process. Our technology affords remote operation, reducing the need for employee interaction with the appliance's burner, such as for the purposes of re-ignition or temperature monitoring. In addition, our burner-management systems can help reduce gas emissions by quickly reigniting a failed flame and improving application efficiencies and up-time.

Oil and gas producers utilize burner-management systems to achieve increased safety, greater operational efficiencies, and improved compliance with changing industry regulations.  Without a burner-management system, an employee must discover and reignite an extinguished burner flame, then restart the application manually. Therefore, without burner-management systems, all application monitoring is done directly on-site. Such on-site monitoring can result in the interruption of production for longer periods of time, risk of reigniting a flame, which can lead to burns and explosions, and the possibility of raw gas being vented into the atmosphere when the flame fails. In addition, without a burner-management system, burners often run longer, incurring significant fuel costs. We believe there is a growing trend in the oil and gas industry toward enhanced control, process automation, and data logging, largely for improved efficiency and operational cost savings, and partly for potential regulatory-satisfaction purposes. Our burner-management systems are designed to be always on standby to make sure the burner flame is lit and managed properly, which can reduce how often a burner is running and may reduce fuel costs. We continue to assess compliance-interest in the industry, and we believe that enhanced burner-management products and services can help our customers be compliant with such regulatory requirements, where applicable. In addition to selling products, we train and dispatch service technicians to service burner flame installations throughout the United States and Canada.

We initially developed our first burner-management system in 2005. Since then, we have released several iterations of our initial burner-management system, increasing features and capabilities, while maintaining compliance with North American standards, including Canadian Standards Association (CSA), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) standards.

Our burner-management systems have become widely used throughout the United States and Western Canada. We have sold our burner-management systems to many large energy companies, including Anadarko, Chevron, Concho Resources, ConocoPhillips, Devon, Encana, XTO, CNRL, Shell, OXY, and others. Our systems have also been sold or installed in other parts of the world, including many countries in Europe, South America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. We are established in the North American oil and gas markets, which is our primary focus currently, but we are working to expand further into other international markets.

Product Extensions:

The PF3100 is an advanced burner and combustion management system which is designed to operate, monitor, control, and manage a wide variety of complex, heated appliances. Throughout the industry, Programmable Logic Controllers, or PLCs, are used to operate and manage custom-built oilfield applications. While PLC's perform these intended functions, they can be expensive, difficult to install and maintain. The PF3100 can help oilfield producers meet deadlines and improve profitability through an off-the-shelf solution with dynamic customization.  We are selling the PF3100 for initial use in the oil and gas industry's natural-draft and forced-draft applications.

20

We recognized the area of burner management most in need of innovation was the user experience. The PF2200 is designed to optimize installation, commissioning, troubleshooting and daily operation. This focus on the user will optimize the time required on-site for both installation and operator training. With the user focused design being combined with an expanded feature set, the PF2200 becomes a very powerful tool to reduce downtime and lessen the burden on producers in a wide variety of applications, ranging from dual-burner to forced draft, to a variety of waste-gas destruction applications.

We frequently assess market needs by participating in industry conferences and soliciting feedback from existing and potential customers, allowing us to provide quality solutions to the oil and gas producing companies we serve. Upon identifying a potential market need, we begin researching the market and developing products that are likely to have feasibility for future sale.

Additional Complementary Products

In addition to our burner- and combustion-management systems, we also supply complementary products that provide our customers with a complete solution. These products include safety and monitoring devices such as shut-down and temperature valves, pressure transmitters and switches, burners, pilots, flame arrestor housings and other combustion related equipment. We continue to invest in the development of innovative, complementary products which we anticipate will help bolster continued long-term growth.

Results of Operations

Comparison quarter over quarter

The table below presents certain financial data comparing the most recent quarter to prior quarters:
For the three months ended
June 30, 2020 March 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 September 30, 2019 June 30, 2019
Total Revenues $ 4,359,479    $ 7,447,142    $ 8,118,463    $ 9,905,761    $ 10,124,031   
Gross Profit Percentage 47.9  % 42.5  % 42.0  % 52.2  % 51.2  %
Operating Expenses $ 3,164,318    $ 3,829,736    $ 4,518,825    $ 4,027,844    $ 4,190,479   
Net Income (Loss) $ (808,503)   $ (365,264)   $ (1,554,378)   $ 921,748    $ 985,504   
Operating Cash Flow $ 575,941    $ 271,078    $ 311,093    $ 2,094,454    $ 2,699,154   

Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 decreased by 57% or $5,764,552 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019, which was mostly driven by macro industry changes over that same period. The average oil price during the three months ended June 30, 2020 was only $27.96 per barrel compared to $59.88 per barrel for the same period of last year, representing a decrease of 53.3%. The second quarter of 2020 weekly average rig count for North America was 401 compared to 1,046 in the same period of last year, which represents a decrease of 62%. The historic fall in oil prices which accelerated toward the end of March 2020, continued into the second quarter of 2020 due to a flood of supply from Russia and Saudi Arabia and a dramatic drop in demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On April 20, 2020, short-term futures contracts for oil reflected negative oil prices for the first time in history. Although oil prices are expected to recover in the months ahead due to changes in oil supply and demand dynamics as the economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is uncertain when oil prices will return to levels consistent with the second quarter of 2019. As a result of these extraordinary macro pressures and uncertainties, exploration and production companies have pulled back even further on capital expenditure budgets or cancelled planned spending all together. Until our customers return to more normal capital expenditure levels, our business is likely to continue to be adversely affected.

Our gross profit margin was down from the same quarter of last year and is below our normally expected range for a completed quarter. The gross margin percentage normally fluctuates each quarter due to changes in product mix and product related reserves which have contributed to the change in the current period. However the significant decrease in revenue has also caused the fixed cost portion of cost of goods and services to push the product margin lower than historic levels. However, actions taking during the second quarter to reduce costs and adjust the cost structure of the company have helped to raise the gross margin percentage from the lows of the previous two quarters. In the current economic environment, we continue to evaluate the Company's cost structure in an effort to improve profit margins in future periods.

21

Operating expenses decreased $1,026,161 from the same quarter of last year, which reflected a focus on cost control measures as we navigate the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting oil market supply and demand imbalance. We have been focused on reducing labor costs, travel costs and other non-essential expenditures in this current environment.

Due to the lower revenues discussed above, we reported a net loss of $808,503 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 compared to net income of $985,504 for the same quarter in 2019.

Operating cash flows decreased significantly during the second quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019, due to the 57% drop in revenue, but still remained positive for the quarter. This decrease is primarily due to extraordinary industry and global economic crisis conditions that have persisted throughout the second quarter of 2020.

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

The table below presents certain financial data comparing the six months ended June 30, 2020 to the same period ended June 30, 2019:
For the Six Months Ended June 30,
2020 2019 $ Change % Change
Total Revenues $ 11,806,621    $ 20,957,089    $ (9,150,468)   (43.7) %
Gross Profit Percentage 44.5  % 52.3  % (7.8) %
Operating Expenses $ 6,994,054    $ 7,817,290    $ (823,236)   (10.5) %
Net Income (Loss) $ (1,173,767)   $ 2,654,122    $ (3,827,889)   (144.2) %
Operating Cash Flow $ 847,019    $ 5,300,805    $ (4,453,786)   (84.0) %

Revenues during the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year declined 43.7% which is largely due to a 36.3% drop in the average oil price over the same time frame resulting from the global coronavirus pandemic and the corresponding reduction in spending by our customers. Operating expenses declined 10.5% year over-year due to our focus on cost control measures in 2020. As a result of revenue and operating cost changes, we reported a net loss of $1,173,767 for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net income of $2,654,122 for the same period in 2019. Our gross profit percentage declined by 7.8% during the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to changes in product mix, direct labor cost increases, inventory adjustments and the fixed cost structure within cost of goods and services.

Working capital at June 30, 2020 was $23,539,822, compared to $22,914,845 at December 31, 2019.

We acquired land for a new office building and research and development facility in Canada in June 2018 and completed construction of the facility in March 2020. Excluding the cost of the land, the total cost of the building was approximately $4,500,000 USD. As of June 30, 2020, only minimal costs remain related to final landscaping and an ancillary storage shed.

Our liquidity position is impacted by operating, investing and financing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we generated $847,019 of positive cash flow from operating activities, primarily due to cash received from customer sales, partially offset by cash outflows for accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Operating activity trends consist of cash inflows and outflows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we generated $62,994 of positive cash flow from investing activities, primarily due to investment sales, partially offset by costs incurred for construction of the new office building in Canada. Investing activity trends consist of changes in the mix of our investment portfolio, purchases or sales of fixed assets, and acquisition activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we used $181,126 of cash in financing activities, primarily related to equity awards issued to management. Financing activity trends consist of transactions related to equity awards and purchases or sales of treasury stock. The global COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business in 2020 and as a result, we have focused on cost control measures as we navigate the uncertainty caused by the pandemic and the resulting oil market supply and demand imbalance. We have been focused on decreasing operating, investing and financing costs. We have reduced labor costs, travel and other non-essential expenditures in this current environment. We have also completed construction of the new office building in Canada, and as a result we expect fewer costs related to investing activities in the near future. Thus far in 2020, we have not purchased any treasury stock in order to reduce costs related to financing activities. The extent to which the global COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect our liquidity position will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. As of June 30, 2020, we hold $18,105,165 of cash and investments that form our core excess liquidity which could be utilized, if required, due to the issues described above. See also Item 1A.  Risk Factors for further discussion on the impact of COVID-19 on our business.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, nor do we plan to engage in any in the foreseeable future.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based on the evaluation performed, our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, there are no legal proceedings pending or threatened against us that may have a material impact on us and there are no actions pending or threatened against any of our directors or officers that are adverse to us.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which risks could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. These risks are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition or future results. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our most recent Form 10-K.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has and will likely continue to adversely affect us, and it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.

Since the beginning of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the globe and disrupted economies around the world, including the oil and gas industry in which we operate. The rapid spread of the virus has led to the implementation of various responses, including federal, state and local government-imposed quarantines, shelter-in-place mandates, sweeping restrictions on travel, and other public health and safety measures, nearly all of which have materially reduced global demand for crude oil. The extent to which the global COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, prospects, and the demand for our products will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration or any recurrence of the outbreak and responsive measures, additional or modified government actions, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the global COVID-19 pandemic and the effectiveness of actions taken to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact now or in the future, among others.

Some impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic that could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, include:

•significantly reduced prices for oil production, resulting from a world-wide decrease in demand and a resulting oversupply of existing production;
•further decreases in the demand for oil production, resulting from significantly decreased levels of global, regional and local travel as a result of federal, state and local government-imposed quarantines, including shelter-in-place mandates, enacted to slow the spread of the virus;
•increased likelihood that our customers will reduce capital expenditures due to reduced oil prices, decreases in demand for oil production and other factors that could curtail production;
•increased potential that our customers may seek to invoke force majeure provisions as a result of significantly adverse market conditions to avoid the performance of contractual obligations;
•increased costs and staffing requirements related to facility modifications, social distancing measures or other best practices implemented in connection with federal, state or local government, and voluntarily imposed quarantines or other regulations or guidelines concerning physical gatherings; and
•increased legal and operational costs related to compliance with significant changes in federal, state, and local laws and regulations.

To the extent the global COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely affect the global economy, and/or adversely affects our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects it may also have the effect of increasing the likelihood and/or magnitude of other risks described in Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Form 10-K and in this Form 10-Q.

The ability or willingness of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”), Russia and other oil exporting nations to set, maintain and enforce production levels has a significant impact on oil and gas commodity prices, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

OPEC is an intergovernmental organization that seeks to manage the price and supply of oil on the global energy market. Actions taken by OPEC member countries, including those taken along with other oil exporting nations, have a significant impact on global oil supply and pricing. In March 2020, members of OPEC and ten other oil producing countries (“OPEC+”) met to discuss how to respond to the potential market effects of the global COVID-19 pandemic. The meeting ended on March 6, 2020, as Saudi Arabia failed to convince Russia to reduce production to offset falling demand due to slowing economic activity resulting from the global COVID-19 pandemic. In response to Russia’s refusal to accept the production cut, Saudi Arabia announced an immediate reduction in its export prices and Russia announced that all previously agreed oil production cuts would expire on April 1, 2020. These actions flooded the global market with an oversupply of crude oil, and led to an immediate and steep decrease in global oil prices. In early April 2020, in response to significantly depressed global oil prices, 23 countries, led by Saudi Arabia, Russia and the United States, committed to implement reductions in world oil production. In June 2020, the first phase of production cuts that were put in place in April, were extended through July 31, 2020.

There can be no assurance that the production cuts will stabilize oil prices or that they will be maintained, and recent indications suggest that oil prices will be largely unaffected. The global COVID-19 pandemic has destroyed global oil demand to an unprecedented degree, and despite the concerted action to reduce global production, the relative magnitude of the production cuts as compared to the degree of demand destruction may be wholly insufficient to mitigate or even impact the over-supplied oil market. Further, there is a lack of transparency regarding production volumes among oil-producing nations, and there are limited enforcement mechanisms for real or perceived violations of the production cuts. In connection with past production cuts, OPEC has at times failed to enforce its own production limits on violating members, with no official mechanism for punishing member countries that do not comply. There can be no assurance that OPEC and non-OPEC member countries will abide by the quotas or that OPEC will enforce the quotas. Additionally, certain other countries with free-market economies that agreed to reduce production, are unable to impose mandatory production cuts on non-OPEC oil producers operating in their countries, but instead expect to realize a decrease in production through market forces, as companies tend to cut production voluntarily when prices drop. For such countries, there can be no assurance that oil producers will react in the desired manner or that the market will behave as expected. Uncertainty regarding the effectiveness and enforcement of the production cuts is likely to lead to increased volatility in the supply and demand of oil and the price of oil, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

We may not be able to maintain compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market's continued listing requirements.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. There are a number of continued listing requirements that we must satisfy in order to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If we fail to maintain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market and Nasdaq determines to delist our common stock, the delisting could adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock, our ability to obtain financing to repay any future debt we could incur and fund our operations.

On April 24, 2020, we received a deficiency letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market notifying us that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for our common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) (the “Compliance Period Rule”), we have an initial period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance. However, given the extraordinary market conditions in the financial markets, Nasdaq tolled the compliance period for the bid price requirement through June 30, 2020. The compliance period reseumed on July 1, 2020 and we will have 180 calendar days, or until December 28, 2020 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If, at any time before the Compliance Date, the bid price for our common stock closes at $1.00 or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days as required under the Compliance Period Rule, the Staff will provide us with written notification of compliance with the Bid Price Rule, unless the Staff exercises its discretion to extend this 10 day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(G).

The Notice also provides that, if we do not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by December 28, 2020, we may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance. To qualify for additional time, we will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and provide written notice of our intention to
25

cure the minimum bid price deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse split, if necessary. If we meet these requirements, we will be granted an additional compliance period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If the Nasdaq staff determines that we will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if we are otherwise not eligible for such additional compliance period, Nasdaq will provide notice that our Common Stock will be subject to delisting.

As of the date of this report, we have not made any determination with respect to any action or response regarding our noncompliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. We intend to consider available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If our common stock were to be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market, trading of our common stock most likely would be conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the OTC Bulletin Board. Such trading would likely reduce the market liquidity of our common stock. As a result, an investor would find it more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations for the price of, our common stock. If our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market and the trading price remains below $5.00 per share, trading in our common stock might also become subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trade involving a stock defined as a "penny stock" (generally, any equity security not listed on a national securities exchange that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions). Many brokerage firms are reluctant to recommend low-priced stocks to their clients. Moreover, various regulations and policies restrict the ability of stockholders to borrow against or "margin" low-priced stocks, and declines in the stock price below certain levels may trigger unexpected margin calls. Additionally, because brokers' commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher priced stocks, the current price of the common stock can result in an individual stockholder paying transaction costs that represent a higher percentage of total share value than would be the case if our share price were higher. This factor may also limit the willingness of institutions to purchase our common stock. Finally, the additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these requirements could discourage broker-dealers from facilitating trades in our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of the stock and the ability of investors to trade our common stock. As a result, the ability of our stockholders to resell their shares of common stock, and the price at which they could sell their shares, could be adversely affected. The delisting of our stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.
