−Removed: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
−Removed: In August 2021, our Board of Directors (“Board”) declared a common stock dividend (“Special Dividend”) contingent on the closing of the Exchange Transaction (as defined below).
−Removed: As a result of the stockholders’ approval and the closing of the Exchange Transaction, such Special Dividend was effected in the form of a stock dividend of 0.3 shares of our common stock, for each outstanding share of common stock (exclusive of common stock held in the treasury and the common shares issued as part of the Exchange Transaction ), but the Special Dividend was contingent upon the stockholders’ approval of the proposals noted above.
−Removed: As the result of the stockholders’ approval, the Special Dividend was paid through the issuance of approximately 9.1 million shares of common stock on October 8, 2021 to holders of record of common stock, including certain stock-based awards, on September 24, 2021 (the “Record Date”).
−Removed: Our common stock began trading on a stock dividend-adjusted basis on October 13, 2021.

−Removed: The accretion was recorded to retained earnings/accumulated deficit.
−Removed: However, during the third quarter of 2021, our redeemable preferred stocks were exchanged into our common stock as discussed in Note 2.
−Removed: As a result, the change in classification of the redeemable preferred stocks from temporary/mezzanine equity to permanent equity was considered an extinguishment.
−Removed: In conjunction with the extinguishment of the redeemable preferred stocks, the then current fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative was applied to the carrying value of the redeemable preferred stocks at the time of the extinguishment.

−Removed: Significant judgment is applied in evaluating the need for and the magnitude of appropriate valuation allowances against deferred tax assets.

−Removed: Contingencies – Certain conditions may exist which may result in a loss, but which will only be resolved when future events occur.
−Removed: We and our legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment.
−Removed: If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a loss has been incurred, we would accrue for such contingent losses when such losses can be reasonably estimated.
−Removed: If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
−Removed: Estimates of potential legal fees and other directly related costs associated with contingencies are not accrued but rather are expensed as incurred.

The fair value of financial instruments is not indicative of the overall fair value of our assets and liabilities since financial instruments do not include all assets, including intangibles, and all liabilities.
−Removed: Revenue Recognition
−Removed: Revenue Recognition and Performance Obligations
−Removed: We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:
−Removed: Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
−Removed: Determination of the transaction price;
−Removed: Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;
−Removed: Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.
−Removed: A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account.
−Removed: A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.
−Removed: Generally, satisfaction occurs when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer or as services are rendered or completed in exchange for consideration in an amount for which we expect to be entitled.
−Removed: Generally, control is transferred when the preparation for shipment of the product to a customer has been completed.
−Removed: Most of our contracts contain a single performance obligation with the promise to transfer a specific product.
−Removed: LSB INDUSTRIES, INC.
−Removed: NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
−Removed: Most of our revenue is recognized from performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, however, we have a performance obligation to perform certain services that are satisfied over a period of time.
−Removed: Revenue is recognized from this type of performance obligation as services are rendered and are based on the amount for which we have a right to invoice, which reflects the amount of expected consideration that corresponds directly with the value of the services performed.
−Removed: Transaction Price Constraints and Variable Consideration
−Removed: For most of our contracts with customers, the transaction price from the inception of a contract is constrained to a short period of time (generally one month) as these contracts contain terms with variable consideration related to both price and quantity.
−Removed: These contract prices are often based on commodity indexes (such as NYMEX natural gas index) published monthly and the contract quantities are typically based on estimated ranges.
−Removed: The quantities become fixed and determinable over a period of time as each sale order is received from the customer.
−Removed: The nature of our contracts also gives rise to other types of variable consideration, including volume discounts and rebates, make-whole provisions, other pricing concessions, and short-fall charges.
−Removed: We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers, which result in a transaction price adjustment reducing revenue (net sales) with the offset increasing contract or refund liabilities.
−Removed: These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance and our best judgment at the time.
−Removed: We reassess these estimates on a quarterly basis.
−Removed: The aforementioned constraints over transaction prices in conjunction with the variable consideration included in our material contracts prevent a practical assignment of a specific dollar amount to performance obligations at the beginning and end of the period.
−Removed: Therefore, we have applied the variable consideration allocation exception.
−Removed: Future revenues to be earned from the satisfaction of performance obligations will be recognized when control transfers as goods are loaded and weighed or services are performed over the remaining duration of our contracts.
−Removed: Income (Loss) per Common Share – Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net income (loss) by the amount of dividends and dividend requirements (including the deemed dividend discussed in Note 2) on preferred stocks and the accretion of redeemable preferred stocks, if applicable.
−Removed: Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding contingently issuable common shares (unvested restricted stock), if applicable.
−Removed: For periods we earn net income, a proportional share of net income is allocated to participating securities, if applicable and dilutive, determined by dividing total weighted average participating securities by the sum of the total weighted average common shares and participating securities (the “two-class method”).
−Removed: Certain securities (Series E Redeemable Preferred prior to the Exchange Transaction and restricted stock units) participate in dividends declared on our common stock and are therefore considered to be participating securities.
−Removed: Participating securities have the effect of diluting both basic and diluted income per common share during periods of net income.
−Removed: For periods we incur a net loss, no loss is allocated to participating securities because they have no contractual obligation to share in our losses.
−Removed: Diluted loss per common share is computed after giving consideration to the dilutive effect of our potential common stock instruments that are outstanding during the period, except where such non-participating securities would be anti-dilutive.

−Removed: Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holder would exchange all of the shares of the Series E and Series F Redeemable Preferred into our common stock based on the liquidation preference (“Liquidation Preference”), at the time of the exchange, and an exchange price of $ 6.16 , which is equal to the 30 -day volume weighted average price as of the date of the Exchange Agreement.
−Removed: The Liquidation Preference primarily consists of $ 1,000 per share of Series E Redeemable Preferred plus accrued and unpaid dividends and the participation rights value.

−Removed: Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holder exchanged all of the shares of the Series E and Series F Redeemable Preferred for approximately 49.1 million shares of our common stock.
−Removed: The total fair value of the approximately 49.1 million shares of common stock issued was approximately $ 531.1 million (based on the average per share price on the date of closing).
−Removed: The fair value of the common stock issued was in excess of the Ser ies E and Series F Redeemable Preferred carrying amount, net of the bifurcated embedded derivative and unamortized issuance costs, by approximately $ 231.8 million and is treated as a deemed dividend.
−Removed: Because we were in an accumulated deficit position on the closing date, the deemed dividend was charged to capital in excess of par value .
