Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors Flotek Industries, Inc.:
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Flotek Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows, and stockholders’ equity for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Sources and Uses of Liquidity
As described in Note 1 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company currently funds its operations and growth primarily from cash on hand. The ability of the Company to grow and be competitive in the marketplace is dependent on the availability of adequate capital. Access to capital is dependent on the Company’s operating cash flows, the monetization of non-core assets, and the availability of and access to debt and equity financing. The Company has a history of losses and negative cash flows from operations and expects to use a significant amount of cash in the year following the issuance of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. Uncertainty surrounding the long-term stability and strength of the oil and gas markets or reduced spending by the Company’s customers could have a further negative impact on the Company’s liquidity. The Company believes that their cash and liquid assets, including certain transactions
33
executed after year end, will provide the Company with sufficient financial resources to fund its operations and meet its capital requirements and anticipated obligations as they become due over the twelve-month period following the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
We identified the evaluation of the Company’s assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern and related disclosures as a critical audit matter. There was significant auditor judgment required in evaluating (1) forecasted revenue growth rates and operating expenses used in the Company’s forecasted cash flows analysis for the twelve-month period subsequent to issuance of the consolidated financial statements and (2) management's ability to implement its plans with respect to the disposition of assets held for sale.
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design of certain internal controls related to the Company’s assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern, including the development of the forecasted revenue growth rates and operating expenses over the twelve-month period following the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, and the Company’s assessment of the probability of disposing assets held for sale. To assess the Company’s ability to forecast revenue and operating expenses, we compared historical revenue and operating expense forecasts to actual results. We also compared the Company's forecasted revenue growth rates to certain relevant industry trends. We performed sensitivity analyses over the Company’s going concern assessment by evaluating the effect of changes in the forecasted revenue growth rates and operating expenses and the effect of potential outcomes of the disposition of assets held for sale. We evaluated the reasonableness of the Company’s forecasted revenue and operating expenses by comparing them to management’s stated plans which were corroborated by meeting minutes of the Board of Directors. We evaluated management’s plans related to disposition of certain assets held for sale by inspecting the contractual sale document. We assessed the Company’s disclosures related to its going concern assessment by comparing the disclosures to the audit evidence obtained.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Organization and Nature of Operations
General
Flotek Industries, Inc. (“Flotek” or the “Company”) creates solutions to reduce the environmental impact of energy on air, water, land and people. A technology-driven, specialty green chemistry and data company, Flotek helps customers across industrial, commercial, and consumer markets improve their environmental performance.
The Company’s Chemistry Technologies (“CT”) segment develops, manufactures, packages, distributes, delivers, and markets green specialty chemicals that enhance the profitability of hydrocarbon producers and cleans surfaces in both commercial and personal settings to help reduce the spread of bacteria, viruses and germs.
The Company’s Data Analytics (“DA”) segment enables users to maximize the value of their hydrocarbon associated processes by providing analytics associated with their hydrocarbon streams in seconds rather than minutes or days. The real-time access to information prevents waste, reduces reprocessing and allows users to pursue automation of their hydrocarbon streams to maximize their profitability, while reducing their carbon footprint, energy consumption and emissions.
The Company formed the DA segment during the second quarter of 2020, after acquiring JP3 Measurement, LLC (“JP3”). The Company’s two operating segments, CT and DA, are both supported by its Research & Innovation advanced laboratory capabilities. For further discussion of our operations and segments, see Note 21, “Business Segment, Geographic and Major Customer Information.” For further discussion of the JP3 acquisition, see Note 3, “Business Acquisition.”
The Company was initially incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia in 1985. In October 2001, the Company changed its corporate domicile to the State of Delaware.
Sources and Uses of Liquidity
The Company currently funds its operations and growth primarily from cash on hand. The ability of the Company to grow and be competitive in the marketplace is dependent on the availability of adequate capital. Access to capital is dependent on the Company’s operating cash flows, the monetization of non-core assets, and the availability of and access to debt and equity financing. The Company has a history of losses and negative cash flows from operations and expects to utilize a significant amount of cash in the following year. While we believe that our cash and liquid assets, including the actions taken subsequent to year end discussed below and in Note 22, “Subsequent Events”, will provide us with sufficient financial resources to fund operations and meet our capital requirements and anticipated obligations as they become due, uncertainty surrounding the long term stability and strength of the oil and gas markets or reduced spending by our customers could have a further negative impact on our liquidity.
On February 2, 2022, the Company completed a Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) transaction with a consortium of investors, including related parties, through the issuance of $ 21.2 million aggregate of convertible notes that resulted in net cash proceeds of approximately $ 19.5 million. Also, on February 2, 2022, the Company entered into a long-term supply agreement with ProFrac Services, LLC (the “ProFrac Agreement”) upon issuance of $ 10 million of convertible notes. Under the ProFrac Agreement, ProFrac Services, LLC is obligated to order chemicals from the Company at least equal to the greater of (a) the chemicals required for 33 % of their hydraulic fracturing fleets and (b) a baseline measured by the first ten hydraulic fracturing fleets deployed by ProFrac Services, LLC. Profrac shall pay to the company, as liquidated damages an amount equal to twenty-five percent ( 25 %) of the difference between (i) the aggregate Purchase Price of the quantity of Products comprising the Minimum Purchase Obligation during such calendar year. The term of the ProFrac Agreement is three years starting on April 1, 2022.
The Company also committed to plans to sell its warehouse facility in Monahans, Texas and its manufacturing facility in Waller, Texas. These facilities were classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2021. Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Company executed a contract to sell its Waller facility for $ 4.2 million of cash proceeds. The sale is expected to close in April 2022.
Based on our cash and liquid assets, including the transactions subsequent to year end described above and in Note 22 Subsequent Events, we believe that our cash and liquid assets will provide us with sufficient financial resources to fund operations and meet our capital requirements and anticipated obligations as they become due. However, the Company cannot guarantee a sufficient level of cash flows in the future. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.

FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Flotek Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries it controls.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company does not have investments in any unconsolidated subsidiaries.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Cash Management
The Company uses a controlled disbursement account for its main cash account. Under this system, outstanding checks can be in excess of the cash balances at the bank before the disbursement account is funded, creating a book overdraft. Book overdrafts on this account are presented as a current liability in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets.
Restricted Cash
The Company’s restricted cash consists of cash that the Company is contractually obligated to maintain in accordance with the terms of its credit card program with a financial institution and as of December 31, 2021 an amount held in escrow of $ 1.75 million for amounts due under the terms of the legal settlement discussed in Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable arise from product sales and services and are stated at estimated net realizable value. This value incorporates an allowance for doubtful accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on accounts receivable balances. The Company regularly evaluates its accounts receivable to estimate amounts that will not be collected and records the appropriate provision for doubtful accounts as a charge to operating expenses. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on a combination of the age of the receivables, individual customer circumstances, credit conditions, and historical write-offs and collections. The Company writes off specific accounts receivable when they are determined to be uncollectible. The recovery of accounts receivable previously written off is recorded as a reduction to the provision for doubtful accounts charged to operating expense.
The majority of the Company’s customers are engaged in the energy industry. The cyclical nature of the energy industry may affect customers’ operating performance and cash flows, which directly impact the Company’s ability to collect on outstanding obligations. Additionally, certain customers are located in international areas that are inherently subject to risks of economic, political, and civil instability, which can impact the collectability of receivables.
Changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts are as follows (in thousands):
Years ended December 31,
2021 2020
Balance, beginning of year $ 1,316 $ 1,527
Charges to provision for doubtful accounts, net of recoveries ( 127 ) 652
Write-offs ( 530 ) ( 863 )
Balance, end of year $ 659 $ 1,316
Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost determined using the weighted-average cost method, or net realizable value. Finished goods inventories include raw materials, direct labor and production overhead. The Company periodically reviews inventories on hand and current market conditions to determine if the cost of raw
42
FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
materials and finished goods inventories exceed current market prices and impairs the cost basis of the inventory accordingly. Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage requirement is written down to its net realizable value if those amounts are determined to be less than cost. Write-downs or write-offs of inventory are charged to cost of goods sold.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. The cost of ordinary maintenance and repair is charged to operating expense, while replacement of critical components and major improvements are capitalized. Depreciation or amortization of property and equipment, including right-of-use assets (“ROU”), is calculated using the straight-line method over the asset’s estimated useful life as follows:
Buildings and leasehold improvements 2 - 30 years
Machinery and equipment 7 - 10 years
Furniture and fixtures 3 years
Land improvements 20 years
Transportation equipment 2 - 5 years
Computer equipment and software 3 - 7 years
Property and equipment, including ROU assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. If events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable, the Company first compares the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposal of the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposal of the asset, the Company will determine the fair value of the asset or asset group. The amount of impairment loss recognized is the excess of the asset or asset group’s carrying amount over its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values, and third party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.
Assets to be disposed of are reported as assets held for sale at the lower of the carrying amount or the asset’s fair value less cost to s ell and depreciation is ceased. Upon sale or other disposition of an asset, the Company recognizes a gain or loss on disposal measured as the difference between the net carrying amount of the asset and the net proceeds received.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is tested for impairment annually on October 1 or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate a potential impairment.
When performing the annual impairment test, the Company has the option to assess whether a goodwill impairment exists using either a qualitative or quantitative assessment. The qualitative assessment involves determining whether events or circumstances exist that indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill.
If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount or if the Company elects not to perform a qualitative assessment, a quantitative impairment test is performed to determine whether goodwill impairment exists at the reporting unit.
The quantitative impairment test, used to identify both the existence of impairment and the amount of impairment loss, compares the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. To determine fair value estimates, the Company uses the income approach based on discounted cash flow analyses, combined, when appropriate, with a market-based approach. Under the income approach, the fair value of the reporting unit was determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate. We used our internal forecasts, updated for recent events, to estimate future cash flows with cash flows beyond the specific operating plans estimated using a terminal value calculation, which incorporates historical and forecasted trends, including an estimate of long-term future growth rates, based on our most recent views of the long-term outlook for the reporting unit. We derive our discount rate using a capital asset pricing model and analyzing published rates for industries relevant to the reporting unit to estimate the cost of equity financing. We use discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainties inherent in the respective business and in our
43

internally developed forecasts. The market-based approach considers valuation comparisons of recent public sale transactions of similar businesses and earnings multiples of publicly traded businesses operating in industries consistent with the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company categorizes financial assets and liabilities using a three-tier fair value hierarchy, based on the nature of the inputs used to determine fair value. Inputs refer broadly to assumptions that market participants would use to value an asset or liability and may be observable or unobservable. When determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, the Company uses the most reliable measurement available. See Note 13, “Fair Value Measurements.”
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of control of promised goods or services to its customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company recognizes revenue based on a five-step model when all of the following criteria have been met: (i) a contract with a customer exists, (ii) performance obligations have been identified, (iii) the price to the customer has been determined, (iv) the price to the customer has been allocated to the performance obligations, and (v) performance obligations are satisfied.
Products and services are sold with fixed or determinable prices. Certain sales include right of return provisions, which are considered when recognizing revenue and deferred accordingly. Deposits and other funds received in advance of delivery are deferred until the transfer of control is complete.
The Company applies several practical expedients including:
• Sales commissions are expensed as selling, general and administrative expenses when incurred because the amortization period is generally one year or less.
• The majority of the Company’s services are short-term in nature with a contract term of one year or less. As a result the Company does not disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations.
• The Company’s payment terms are short-term in nature with settlements of one year or less. As a result the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component.
• In most service contracts, the Company has the right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance obligations completed to date and as such the Company recognizes revenue in the amount to which it has a right to invoice.
• The Company excludes from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the entity from a customer. Such taxes are included in accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet until remitted to the governmental agency.
Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of goods sold on our consolidated statement of operations.
Foreign Currency Translation
Financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are prepared using the currency of the primary economic environment of the foreign subsidiaries as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect as of the end of identified reporting periods. Revenue and expense transactions are translated using the average monthly exchange rate for the reporting period. Resultant translation adjustments are recognized as other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss encompasses all changes in stockholders’ equity, except those arising from investments from and distributions to stockholders. The Company’s comprehensive loss includes consolidated net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Research and Development Costs
Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged to expense as incurred.

Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The establishment of a valuation allowance requires significant judgment and is impacted by various estimates. Both positive and negative evidence, as well as the objectivity and verifiability of that evidence, is considered in determining the appropriateness of recording a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense, related to stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, is recognized based on their grant-date fair values. The Company recognizes compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Estimated forfeitures are based on historical experience.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount and useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets; goodwill, property and equipment and intangible asset impairment assessments; allocation of purchase price in business combinations; stock-based compensation expense; and valuation allowances for accounts receivable, inventories, and deferred tax assets.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company changed its financial statement presentation to report cost of goods sold and gross profit (loss) and eliminated the reporting of operating expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) on the consolidated statements of operations to conform to customary industry reporting practices. In connection with this change in presentation, the Company reclassified selling costs of $ 6.5 million to selling, general and administrative expenses which were previously reported in operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020. The reclassifications and change in presentation of the statements of operations did not impact previously recorded net loss and stockholders’ equity.
Business Combinations
The Company includes the results of operations of its acquisitions in its consolidated results, prospectively from the date of acquisition. The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interests in the acquired entity generally based on their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair value of these assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interests in the acquired entity is recorded as goodwill. The primary items that generate goodwill include the value of the synergies between the acquired company and Flotek and the value of the acquired assembled workforce. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business acquisition and are recognized as expenses as incurred.

Note 3 — Business Acquisition
On May 18, 2020, the Company acquired 100 % ownership of JP3, a privately-held data and analytics technology company, in a cash-and-stock transaction. The transaction was valued at approximately $ 36.6 million as of the transaction closing date, comprised of $ 25.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments and contingent consideration as described below, and 11.5 million shares in Flotek common stock with an estimated fair value of $ 8.5 million, net of a discount for marketability due to a lock-up period. The payment of $ 25.0 million was subject to certain purchase price adjustments, and the total non-equity consideration at closing on May 18, 2020 was comprised of $ 25.0 million plus net working capital in excess of the target net working capital of $ 1.9 million. Additionally, the Company was subject to contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $ 1.2 million at acquisition date for two potential earn-out provisions totaling up to $ 5.0 million based on certain stock performance targets. The first and second earn-out provisions occur if the ten-day volume-weighted average share price equals or exceeds $ 2 per share and $ 3 per share, respectively, before May 18, 2025. See Note 13, “Fair Value Measurements,” for additional information on the current estimated fair value of the contingent consideration.

Pro forma information for JP3 is not provided as the impact is not considered material.
During the third quarter of 2020, the Company made certain measurement period adjustments to inventory, resulting in an increase of goodwill of $ 2.3 million .
Note 4 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In recognizing revenue for products and services, the Company determines the transaction price of purchase orders or contracts with customers, which may consist of fixed and variable consideration. Determining the transaction price may require significant judgment by management, which includes identifying performance obligations, estimating variable consideration to include in the transaction price, and determining whether promised goods or services can be distinguished in the context of the contract. Variable consideration typically consists of product returns and is estimated based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive. Revenue accruals are recorded on an ongoing basis to reflect updated variable consideration information.
The majority of the products from the CT segment are sold at a point in time and service contracts are short-term in nature. The DA segment recognizes revenue for sales of equipment at the time of sale. Revenue related to service and support is recognized over time. The Company bills sales on a monthly basis with payment terms customarily 30-60 days for domestic and 90-120 days f or international from invoice receipt. In addition, sales taxes are excluded from revenues.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company differentiates revenue based on whether the source of revenue is attributable to product sales (point-in-time revenue recognition) or service revenue (over-time revenue recognition).

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
The CT and DA segments primarily sell chemicals and equipment recognized at a point in time based on when control transfers to the customer determined by agreed upon delivery terms. Additionally, both segments offer various services associated to products sold which includes field services, installation, maintenance, and other functions. For DA, services are recognized

upon completion of commissioning and installation due to the short-term nature of the performance obligation. DA has additional performance obligations related to providing ongoing or reoccurring maintenance. Revenue for these types of arrangements is recognized ratably over time throughout the contract period. Additionally, DA may provide subscription-type arrangements with customers in which monthly reoccurring revenue is recognized ratably over time in accordance with agreed upon terms and conditions. Subscription-type arrangements were not a material revenue stream in the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Under revenue contracts for both products and services, customers are invoiced once the performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Contract assets associated with incomplete performance obligations are not material.

Note 8 - Goodwill
As discussed in Note 3 Business Acquisition, during the second quarter of 2020, the Company acquired 100 % ownership of JP3, as a new operating segment and reporting unit. The Company recorded goodwill of $ 17.5 million. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company made certain measurement period adjustments to inventory obtained in the JP3 acquisition, resulting in an increase of goodwill of $ 2.3 million .
On October 1 of each fiscal year, we perform our annual goodwill impairment test for the DA reporting unit. We also test goodwill for impairment whenever events or circumstances occur which, in our judgment, could more likely than not reduce the fair value of the DA reporting unit below its carrying amount. Potential impairment indicators include, but are not limited to, (i) the results of our most recent annual impairment testing, in particular the magnitude of the excess of fair value over carrying value observed, (ii) downward revisions to internal forecasts, and the magnitude thereof, if any, and (iii) declines in our market capitalization below our book value, and the magnitude and duration of those declines, if any.
In performing the annual quantitative impairment test and consistent with our prior practice, we determined the fair value of the DA reporting unit using an income approach. Under the income approach, the fair value of the reporting unit was determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate. We used our internal forecasts, updated for recent events, to estimate future cash flows with cash flows beyond the specific operating plans estimated using a terminal value calculation, which incorporates historical and forecasted trends, including an estimate of long-term future growth rates, based on our most recent views of the long-term outlook for the DA reporting unit. Our internal forecasts include assumptions about future commodity pricing and expected demand for our goods and services. For the DA reporting unit, production growth is anticipated to be moderate in the near term as operators continue to show an abundance of fiscal discipline in development spending. Midstream thru-put volumes remain well below capacity levels. While we are expecting production growth to increase, it is likely to do so at a more conservative pace. These factors have precipitated our impairment decision for Data Analytics goodwill. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved in making estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ from those assumed in our forecasts. We derived our discount rate using a capital asset pricing model and analyzing published rates for industries relevant to the DA reporting unit to estimate the cost of equity financing. We used a discount rate that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainties inherent in the respective business and in our internally developed forecasts.
Based upon the results of our annual quantitative impairment test, we concluded that the carrying value of the DA reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value as of the testing date, which resulted in goodwill impairment charges of $ 8.1 million. The goodwill impairment was calculated as the amount that the carrying value of the DA reporting unit, including any goodwill, exceeded its fair value. The carrying value of the DA reporting unit equals its fair value upon completion of the goodwill impairment test.

During the first quarter of 2020, with the onset of the global COVID-19 Pandemic and the significant disruption across the industry, the Company’s operations were negatively impacted resulting in actual and projected declines in the Company’s revenues and results of operations. These declines were driven by market factors, including an oversupply of oil, insufficient storage and demand destruction resulting from the reaction to the pandemic. Based on these factors, the Company concluded that a triggering event occurred and, accordingly, an interim impairment test was performed as of March 31, 2020, for the CT segment.
Using the income approach, the fair value of the CT segment asset group was determined based on the present value of future cash flows. The Company utilized internal forecast trends and potential growth rates to estimate future cash flows of the asset group. Based on the results of the quantitative assessment, the Company concluded the carrying value of the asset group exceeded its fair value as of March 31, 2020, and an impairment loss of $ 57.5 million was recorded.
Management performed an interim impairment test as of September 30, 2020 for the DA business segment which was negatively impacted by reduced demand in the oil and gas sector because of reductions in capital spending across our customer base, lower than anticipated growth in the international market gained from the JP3 acquisition.
Using the income approach, the fair value of the DA segment asset group was determined based on the present value of future cash flows. The Company utilized internal forecast trends and potential growth rates to estimate future cash flows of the asset group.

Note 12 — Debt
In April 2020, the Company received a $ 4.8 million loan (the “Flotek PPP loan”) under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), which was created through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Act (“CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). In connection with the acquisition of JP3 in May 2020, the Company assumed a PPP loan of $ 0.9 million obtained by JP3 (the “JP3 PPP loan”) in April 2020 prior to its acquisition by Flotek. The PPP loans had a fixed interest rate of 1 % and originally a two-year term, maturing in April and May 2022, respectively. No payments of principal or interest were required during the years ended December 31, 2021 or 2020.
A portion of the loans may be eligible for forgiveness by the SBA depending on the extent of proceeds used for payroll costs and other designated expenses incurred for up to 24 weeks following loan origination, subject to adjustments for headcount reductions and compensation limits and provided that at least 60 % of the eligible costs incurred were used for payroll. Receipt of these funds required the Company to, in good faith, certify that the current economic uncertainty made the loan request necessary to support ongoing operations of the Company. This certification further required the Company to take into account current business activity and the ability to access other sources of liquidity sufficient to support ongoing operations in a manner that was not significantly detrimental to the business. The forgiveness of the loans is dependent on the Company having initially qualified for the loans and qualifying for the forgiveness of such loans based on our past and future adherence to the forgiveness criteria. The PPP loans are subject to any new guidance and new requirements released by the Department of the Treasury, which initially indicated that all companies that have received funds in excess of $2.0 million will be subject to audit by the SBA to further ensure PPP loans are limited to eligible borrowers in need.
During the second quarter of 2021, the Company applied for forgiveness of the JP3 PPP loan with the SBA. In June 2021, the Company received notice from the SBA that the JP3 PPP loan and accrued interest were fully forgiven. Accordingly, during the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded $ 0.9 million for the amount of principal and accrued interest forgiven associated with the JP3 PPP loan in other income on the consolidated statement of operations.
In October 2021, the Flotek PPP loan maturity date was extended from April 15, 2022 to April 15, 2025.
The Company has submitted to the SBA for forgiveness of substantially all of the Flotek PPP loan but as of December 31, 2021 and as of the date of this filing, the Company has not received a forgiveness notice. If the loan is not forgiven, monthly payments will be due over the remaining term of the loan. Denial of the forgiveness of the Flotek PPP loan will negatively impact the Company’s liquidity as discussed in Note 1, “Organization and Nature of Operations”.

Note 13 — Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company categorizes financial assets and liabilities into the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value and bases categorization within the hierarchy on the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement.
• Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
• Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
• Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity or that are based on the reporting entity’s assumptions about the inputs.
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accrued liabilities and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts. The carrying amount of the Flotek PPP loan approximates its fair value as of December 31, 2021.
Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table presents the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

The estimated fair value of the remaining stock performance earn-out provision, with respect to the JP3 transaction, discussed in Note 3, Business Acquisition, is included in accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. The estimated fair value of the earn-out provision at the end of each period was valued using a Monte Carlo model analyzing 20,000 simulations performed using Geometric Brownian Motion with inputs such as risk-neutral expected growth and volatility. During the third quarter of 2020, the first stock performance target of the contingent consideration was achieved, and the Company accrued a liability of $ 2.5 million, which was subsequently settled during the fourth quarter of 2020.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
The Company’s non-financial assets, including property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and are subject to fair value adjustment in certain circumstances. Impairments of long-lived assets of $ 70 million were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2020. See Note 10, Impairment of Property and Equipment, Operating Lease Right-of-use Assets and Intangible Assets. Impairments of

Management inputs used in fair value measurements in 2021 and 2020 to estimate the fair value of the non-financial assets were classified as Level 3.
Level 3 Rollforward for Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
In conjunction with the acquisition of JP3, discussed in Note 3, Business Acquisition, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded contingent consideration of $ 1.2 million. Management inputs used in the fair value measurement were classified as Level 3. During the third quarter of 2020, the first stock performance target of the contingent consideration was achieved, and the Company accrued a liability of $ 2.5 million, which was transferred out of Level 3 to a current liability and subsequently settled during the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company estimated the fair value of the remaining stock performance earn-out provision as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 and adjusted the estimated fair value of the contingent liability to $ 0.6 million and $ 1.4 million, respectively. The Company records changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration and achievement of performance targets in cost of goods sold.

A reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory tax rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows:
Years ended December 31,
2021 2020
U.S. federal statutory tax rate 21.0 % 21.0 %
State income taxes, net of federal benefit 0.1 2.1
Non-U.S. income taxed at different rates 0.5 0.2
Increase (reduction) in tax benefit related to stock-based awards 0.1 ( 0.2 )
Increase in valuation allowance ( 24.9 ) ( 20.3 )
Effect of tax rate differences of NOL carryback — 1.5
Permanent differences related to CARES Act 2.6 —
Other 0.7 —
Effective income tax rate 0.1 % 4.3 %
On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Among other things, the CARES Act provided the ability for taxpayers to carryback a net operating loss (“NOL”) arising in a taxable year beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021 to each of the five years preceding the year of the loss. Based on analysis of the extended NOL carryback provision, the Company recorded an income tax benefit and related receivable of $ 6.1 million as of March 31, 2020, which was received in July 2020.
Further, the CARES Act included provisions to assist employers during the pandemic including the Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”). The ERC provision provides a refundable payroll tax credit on qualified wages paid by eligible employers to certain employees. On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was enacted to combat the ongoing public health and economic impacts of the pandemic and provides some tax relief to businesses in the form of extending and modifying the ERC as well as other provisions. The Company applied for and received $ 2.9 million of refundable payroll tax credits during the year ended December 31, 2021. This was recorded as a credit to payroll taxes in SG&A.
Fluctuations in effective tax rates have historically been impacted by permanent tax differences with no associated income tax impact, changes in state apportionment factors, including the effect on state deferred tax assets and liabilities, and non-U.S. income taxed at different rates. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the effective tax rate was further impacted by permanent difference related to the CARES Act provisions and the NOL carryback claim, respectively.
Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the value reported for income tax purposes, at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. The components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of $ 140.6 million, including $ 46.4 million expiring in various amounts from 2029 through 2037 which can offset 100 % of taxable income and $ 94.2 million that has an indefinite carryforward period which can offset 80 % of taxable income per year. The ability to utilize net operating losses and other tax attributes could be subject to a significant limitation if the Company were to undergo an “ownership change” for purposes of Section 382 of the Tax Code.
We record a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in the future and in the appropriate taxing jurisdictions.As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the valuation allowance against the net federal and state deferred tax assets was $ 54.9 million and $ 48.7 million, respectively. Except for a state jurisdiction, the Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets.
The Company intends to reinvest the unremitted earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $ 8.5 million in unremitted earnings from its foreign jurisdictions. As a result of the 2017 Tax Act these earnings have been previously taxed in the U.S. although they have not been repatriated to the U.S. However, certain withholding taxes will need to be paid upon repatriation. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of the deferred tax liability on such unremitted earnings.
The Company performed an evaluation and concluded there are no uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. Tax years which remain subject to examination by tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2021, are the years ended December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2021 for U.S. federal taxes and the years ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2021 for various state tax jurisdictions.

Note 15 — Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is subject to routine litigation and other claims that arise in the normal course of business. Except as disclosed below, management is not aware of any pending or threatened lawsuits or proceedings that are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
Terpene Supply Agreement
As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s consolidated balance sheet included an accrued liability of $ 9.4 million associated with the terpene supply agreement with Florida Chemical Company, LLC (“FCC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (“ADM”). The Company calculated the liability based on its expected usage of terpene in blended products being less than the minimum quantities of terpene required to be purchased under the terpene supply agreement and the expected selling prices of the excess terpene. Losses for the year ended December 31, 2020 on the terpene contract totaled $ 11.7 million and was recognized in cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations.
On March 26, 2021, Flotek Industries, Inc. and Flotek Chemistry, LLC (“Flotek Chemistry”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, filed a lawsuit against ADM, FCC and other parties in state court in Harris County, Texas. The lawsuit claimed damages relating to the terpene supply agreement between Flotek Chemistry and FCC and related breaches of fiduciary duty. Contemporaneously with the filing of the suit, Flotek Chemistry delivered a notice of termination of the terpene supply agreement.
On April 5, 2021, ADM and FCC filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery seeking to enjoin the lawsuit filed in Texas and claiming damages under the terpene supply agreement and other matters.
On October 29, 2021, the Company reached agreement with all parties resolving all claims between the parties (“the ADM Settlement”) that resulted in the termination of the terpene supply agreement and a settlement payment of $ 1.75 million due from Flotek. In accordance with the terms of the ADM Settlement, the Company reduced the accrued liability associated with the terpene supply agreement to $ 1.75 million and recorded a gain of $ 7.6 million in cost of goods sold in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. The one-time payment of $ 1.75 million from Flotek to ADM was paid on January 3, 2022 and was included as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021.
Former CEO Matter
During the year ended December 31, 2021, Flotek commenced an internal investigation into the activities of John Chisholm (Flotek’s previous CEO) due to irregularities in expenses and transactions during the years from 2014 to 2018. The investigation revealed evidence of related party transactions/self-dealing, inappropriate personal expenses, and general corporate waste. Flotek’s board engaged a third party to review the findings of the investigation. After the third-party review, Flotek concluded that its current and historical financial statements can be relied upon, that proper action had been taken, and that no members of current management were implicated in any way.
Beginning in December 2021, Flotek sent demand letters to, and subsequently filed arbitration or other legal proceedings against, John Chisholm, Casey Doherty/Doherty & Doherty LLP (Flotek’s former outside general counsel) and Moss Adams LLP (Flotek’s former independent public audit firm) to recover damages. John Chisholm subsequently filed a counterclaim against Flotek in the arbitration proceeding for his remaining severance (currently accrued by the Company, but payment for which was suspended). Although Flotek believes its claims are supported by the available evidence, the timing and amount of any outcome cannot reasonably be predicted.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to concentrations of credit risk within trade accounts receivable, as the Company does not generally require collateral as support for trade receivables. In addition, the majority of the Company’s cash is invested in three major U.S. financial institutions and balances often exceed insurable amounts.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) was approved by stockholders in 2012. The Company registered 500,000 shares of its common stock, currently held as treasury shares, for issuance under the ESPP. The purpose of the ESPP is to provide employees with an opportunity to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through accumulated payroll deductions. The ESPP allows participants to purchase common stock at a purchase price equal to 85 % of the fair market value of the common stock on the last business day of a three-month offering period which coincides with calendar quarters. Payroll deductions may not exceed 10 % of an employee’s compensation and participants may not purchase more than 1,000 shares in any one offering period. In addition, for each calendar year, an employee may not be granted purchase rights valued over $ 25,000 , as determined at the time such purchase right is granted. The fair v alue of the discount associated with shares purchased under the plan is recognized as stock-based compensation expense and was $ 0.02 and $ 0.1 million for the years

ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The total fair value of the shares purchased under the plan during each of the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $ 0.2 million and $ 0.1 million , respectively . The employee payment associated with participation in the plan occurs through payroll deductions.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
Non-cash stock-based compensation expense related to stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock unit grants and stock purchased under the Company’s ESPP was $ 3.8 million and $ 3.0 million during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
401(k) Retirement Plan
The Company maintains a 401(k) retirement plan for the benefit of eligible employees in the U.S. All employees are eligible to participate in the plan upon employment. The Company currently matches contributions at 100 % of up to 2 % of an employee’s compensation .
During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, compensation expense included $ 0.2 million and $ 0.2 million, respectively, related to the Company’s 401(k) match.
Note 18 — Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding combined with dilutive common share equivalents outstanding, if the effect is dilutive. Potentially dilutive common share equivalents consist of incremental shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options and settlement of restricted stock units.
Potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, since including them would have an anti-dilutive effect on loss per share due to the net loss incurred during the periods. Securities convertible into shares of common stock that were not considered in the diluted loss per share calculations were 1.0 million restricted stock units and 4.3 million stock options for the year ended December 31, 2021, and 1.8 million restricted stock units and 3.8 million stock options for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Note 20 — Related Party Transaction
In January 2017, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) notified the Company that it was examining the Company’s federal tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Note 22 — Subsequent Events
We have evaluated the effects of events that have occurred subsequent to December 31, 2021, and there have been no material events that would require recognition in the 2021 consolidated financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed below.
On February 2, 2022, Flotek entered into a Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) transaction with a consortium of investors to secure growth capital for the Company. Pursuant to the PIPE transaction on February 2, 2022, Flotek issued $ 21.2 million aggregate initial principal amount of convertible notes for net cash proceeds of approximately $ 19 million. The investors are ProFrac Holdings, LLC, Burlington Ventures Ltd., entities associated with North Sound Management, certain funds associated with one of Flotek's directors including the D3 Family Fund and the D3 Bulldog Fund, and Firestorm Capital LLC. The convertible notes accrue paid-in-kind interest at a rate of 10 % per annum, have a maturity of one year, and are converted into common stock of Flotek (a) at the holder's option at any time prior to maturity, at a price of $ 1.088125 per share, (b) at Flotek's option, if the volume-weighted average trading price of Flotek's common stock equals or exceeds $ 2.50 for 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day period, or (c) at maturity, at a price of $ 0.8705 . The issuance of the additional shares may trigger a change in ownership defined as 50% or more under IRC Section 382 that will limit the amount of net operating losses deductible and tax credits allowable starting in 2022.
Also on February 2, 2022, the Company entered into a long-term supply agreement with ProFrac Services, LLC (the “ProFrac Agreement”), a subsidiary of Profrac Holdings LLC, in exchange for $ 10 million of convertible notes under the same terms as the convertible notes issued in the PIPE transaction. Under the ProFrac Agreement, ProFrac Services, LLC is obligated to order chemicals from the Company at least equal to the greater of (a) the chemicals required for 33 % of their hydraulic fracturing fleets and (b) a baseline measured by the first ten hydraulic fracturing fleets deployed by ProFrac Services, LLC. Profrac shall pay to the company, as liquidated damages an amount equal to twenty-five percent ( 25 %) of the difference between (i) the aggregate Purchase Price of the quantity of Products comprising the Minimum Purchase Obligation during such calendar year. The term of the ProFrac Agreement is three years starting April 1, 2022. In connection with the Profrac Agreement, the Company also granted Profrac Holdings LLC. the right to designate two members to serve on Flotek’s board of directors.
On February 16, 2022, the Company entered into an amended agreement with ProFrac Holdings, LLC to expand the Profrac Agreement to a term of ten years and up to thirty hydraulic fracturing fleets deployed by ProFrac Services, LLC. Closing of the transaction is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2022 and is subject to a vote of the shareholders of Flotek’s common stock, as well as other customary conditions. As part of the transaction, at closing of the amended agreement Flotek would (a) issue to ProFrac notes convertible into Flotek’s common stock with a maturity of one year, with the amount of notes based on the size of expansion, and (b) grant ProFrac the right to appoint two members to Flotek’s board of directors, for a total of four out of seven directors. Conversion price of the convertible notes will be $ 1.088125 per share under certain conditions prior to maturity, or $ 0.8705 per share at maturity. The convertible notes contain other terms and conditions similar to the convertible notes issued to Profrac on February 2, 2022.
As a result of these transactions, the Company will seek shareholder approval to increase the authorized shares of common stock or perform a reverse split to allow for the conversion of these convertible notes.
On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into a contract to sell the Waller manufacturing facility for proceeds of $ 4.2 million net of brokerage fee, which is expected to close in April 2022.
