Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Matrix Service Company and its subsidiaries (“Matrix”, “we”, “our”, “us”, “its” or the “Company”), unless otherwise indicated. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, cash flows and financial position for the interim periods presented. The accompanying condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2020, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2021 may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations for the full year ending June 30, 2021.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company has updated its significant accounting policies as a result of adopting the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) on July 1, 2020, and our change in reportable segments effective July 1, 2020. The Company's other significant accounting policies are detailed in “Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2020.
Credit Losses
Adoption of New Credit Losses Standard
On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which changed how the Company accounts for credit losses, including those related to its accounts receivable and contract assets. Under this guidance, a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) are required to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The statement of income reflects any increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period.
The amendments in this update eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold and, instead, reflect the Company's current estimate of all lifetime expected credit losses on its accounts receivable and contract asset balances. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amounts. The Company determines its allowance for credit losses by using a loss-rate methodology, in which it assesses historical write-offs against total receivables and contract asset balances over several periods. In addition, the Company places reserves on specific balances as needed based on the most recent estimates of collectibility. The Company's adoption of this standard on July 1, 2020 did not have a material impact on its estimate of the allowance for credit losses.
Change in Reportable Segments
Due to changing markets facing our clients and to better align the financial reporting of the Company with our long-term strategic growth areas, we began reporting our financial results under new reportable segments effective July 1, 2020. The new reportable segments along with a description of each are as follows:

Matrix Service Company
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
• Utility and Power Infrastructure : consists of power delivery services provided to investor owned utilities, including construction of new substations, upgrades of existing substations, transmission and distribution line installations, upgrades and maintenance, as well as emergency and storm restoration services. The Company also provides construction and maintenance services to a variety of power generation facilities, including gas fired facilities in simple or combined cycle configuration, and provides engineering, fabrication, and construction services for liquefied natural gas ("LNG") utility peak shaving facilities.
• Process and Industrial Facilities : primarily serves customers in the downstream and midstream petroleum industries who are engaged in refining crude oil and processing, fractionating, and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids. The Company also serves customers in various other industries such as petrochemical, sulfur, mining and minerals companies engaged primarily in the extraction of non-ferrous metals, aerospace and defense, cement, agriculture, and other industrial customers. The Company's services include plant maintenance, turnarounds, industrial cleaning services, engineering, fabrication, and capital construction.
• Storage and Terminal Solutions : consists of work related to aboveground storage tanks and terminals. Also included in this segment are cryogenic and other specialty storage tanks and terminals, including LNG, liquid nitrogen/liquid oxygen, liquid petroleum, hydrogen and other specialty vessels such as spheres, as well as marine structures and truck and rail loading/offloading facilities. The Company's services include engineering, fabrication, construction, and maintenance and repair, which includes planned and emergency services for both tanks and full terminals. Finally, the Company offers tank products, including geodesic domes, aluminum internal floating roofs, floating suction and skimmer systems, roof drain systems and floating roof seals.
All prior period segment information has been restated to conform with our new reportable segments. In addition, beginning July 1, 2020, the Company is reporting separately corporate selling, general and administrative expenses and other corporate expenses that were previously allocated to the segments. Refer to Note 9 - Segment Information, and Part I, Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis - Results of Operations, for more information.
Note 2 – Revenue
Remaining Performance Obligations
The Company had $ 444.5 million of remaining performance obligations yet to be satisfied as of March 31, 2021 . The Company expects to recognize $ 340.8 million of its remaining performance obligations as revenue within the next twelve months.
Contract Balances
Contract terms with customers include the timing of billing and payment, which usually differs from the timing of revenue recognition. As a result, we carry contract assets and liabilities in our balance sheet. These contract assets and liabilities are calculated on a contract-by-contract basis and reported on a net basis at the end of each period and are classified as current. We present our contract assets in the balance sheet as Costs and Estimated Earnings in Excess of Billings on Uncompleted Contracts ("CIE"). CIE consists of revenue recognized in excess of billings. We present our contract liabilities in the balance sheet as Billings on Uncompleted Contracts in Excess of Costs and Estimated Earnings ("BIE"). BIE consists of billings in excess of revenue recognized. The following table provides information about CIE and BIE:
March 31,
2021 June 30,
2020 Change
(in thousands)
Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts $ 37,964 $ 59,548 $ ( 21,584 )
Billings on uncompleted contracts in excess of costs and estimated earnings ( 59,495 ) ( 63,889 ) 4,394
Net contract liabilities $ ( 21,531 ) $ ( 4,341 ) $ ( 17,190 )
The difference between the beginning and ending balances of the Company's CIE and BIE primarily results from the timing of revenue recognized relative to its billings. The amount of revenue recognized during the nine months ended March 31, 2021 that was included in the June 30, 2020 BIE balance was $ 57.9 million. This revenue consists primarily of work performed during the period on contracts with customers that had advance billings.

Progress billings in accounts receivable at March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020 included retentions to be collected within one year of $ 20.7 million and $ 37.3 million, respectively. Contract retentions collectible beyond one year are included in other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and totaled $ 3.8 million as of March 31, 2021 and $ 1.6 million as of June 30, 2020.
Disaggregated Revenue
Revenue disaggregated by reportable segment is presented in Note 9 - Segment Information. The following series of tables presents revenue disaggregated by geographic area where the work was performed and by contract type:

Total Revenue $ 148,260 $ 248,327 $ 498,499 $ 905,101
Typically, the Company assumes more risk with fixed-price contracts since increases in costs to perform the work may not be recoverable. However, these types of contracts typically offer higher profits than time and materials and other cost reimbursable contracts when completed at or below the costs originally estimated. The profitability of time and materials and other cost reimbursable contracts is typically lower than fixed-price contracts and is usually less volatile than fixed-price contracts since the profit component is factored into the rates charged for labor, equipment and materials, or is expressed in the contract as a percentage of the reimbursable costs incurred.
Other
Our results of operations were materially impacted by an increase in the forecasted costs to complete a large capital project in the Utility and Power Infrastructure segment, which resulted in a decrease in gross profit of $ 8.9 million in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021. The change in estimate was due to lower than previously forecasted productivity caused by excessive rain at the project site, the continuing impact of COVID-19, and rework which led to higher costs and some schedule compression. The profit on future revenue related to this project will be recognized based on the current project forecast, which is at a reduced gross profit margin.
During the third quarter, the Company achieved mechanical completion of a large crude oil terminal project, demobilized from the project site and completed its assessment of additional recovery of unpriced change orders. The project's financial impact for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 was a $ 3.8 million reduction to gross profit.

Note 3 – Leases
The Company enters into lease arrangements for real estate, construction equipment and information technology equipment in the normal course of business. Real estate leases accounted for approximately 95 % of all right-of-use assets as of March 31, 2021 . Most real estate and information technology equipment leases generally have fixed payments that follow an agreed upon payment schedule and have remaining lease terms ranging from less than a year to 15 years. Construction equipment leases generally have "month-to-month" lease terms that automatically renew as long as the equipment remains in use.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized $ 0.5 million of impairments of right-of-use assets in connection with the closure of leased office space. The impairments are included in restructuring costs in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
The components of lease expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income are as follows:

Net balance at March 31, 2021 $ 6,975 $ 26,873 $ 26,757 $ 60,605
(1) The translation adjustments relate to the periodic translation of Canadian Dollar and South Korean Won denominated goodwill recorded as a part of prior acquisitions in Canada and South Korea, in which the local currency was determined to be the functional currency.
The Company tests its goodwill for impairment annually as of May 31st. While there continues to be uncertainty around the near-term level of spending by some of our customers due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the timing of the economic recovery in certain energy markets, the Company concluded, that based on the totality of both positive and negative factors, no impairment indicators existed at March 31, 2021. However, if customer spending levels do not improve or if the outlook in certain key markets deteriorates, the Company may need to recognize an impairment in conjunction with the annual test in the fourth quarter.

Note 5 – Debt
On November 2, 2020, the Company entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company and certain foreign subsidiaries, as Borrowers, various subsidiaries of the Company, as Guarantors, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, and the other Lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement replaced the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which is described in Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 5 - Debt, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2020.
The Credit Agreement provides for a three-year senior secured revolving credit facility of $ 200.0 million that expires November 2, 2023 . The credit facility may be used for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, issuances of letters of credit and other lawful purposes.
The credit facility includes a U.S. Dollar equivalent sublimit of $ 75.0 million for revolving loans denominated in Australian Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros and Pounds Sterling and letters of credit in Australian Dollars, Euros, and Pounds Sterling.
Each revolving borrowing under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to:
• The ABR or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, in the case of revolving loans denominated in U.S. Dollars;
• The Canadian Prime Rate or the CDOR rate, in the case of revolving loans denominated in Canadian Dollars;
• The Adjusted LIBO Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, in the case of revolving loans denominated in Pounds Sterling or Australian Dollars; or
• The Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, in the case of revolving loans denominated in Euros,

in each case, plus the Applicable Margin, which is based on the Company's Leverage Ratio. The Applicable Margin on ABR loans ranges between 1.00 % and 2.00 %. The Applicable Margin for Adjusted LIBO, Adjusted EURIBOR and CDOR loans ranges between 2.00 % and 3.00 % and the Applicable Margin for Canadian Prime Rate loans ranges between 2.50 % and 3.50 %.
The unused credit facility fee is between 0.35 % and 0.50 % based on the Leverage Ratio.
Covenants and limitations under the Credit Agreement include the following:
• Our Leverage Ratio, determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter, may not exceed 3.00 to 1.00 . The Leverage Ratio covenant requires that Consolidated Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, may not exceed 3.0 times Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, or “Covenant EBITDA,” over the previous four quarters.
• We are required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (“FCCR”), determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter, greater than or equal to 1.25 to 1.00 . The FCCR is calculated as follows:
◦ If no borrowings are outstanding at quarter end, then the FCCR covenant requires that, as of the end of any fiscal quarter, Covenant EBITDA, after deducting capital expenditures and dividends for the previous four quarters, may not be less than 1.25 times the total of interest expense and cash paid for income taxes over the previous four quarters plus scheduled maturities of certain indebtedness for the next four quarters.
◦ If borrowings are outstanding at quarter end, the FCCR is calculated the same except that all share repurchases for the previous four quarters are also deducted from Covenant EBITDA.
• Asset dispositions (other than dispositions in which all of the net cash proceeds therefrom are reinvested into the Company and dispositions of inventory and obsolete or unneeded equipment in the ordinary course of business) are limited to $ 20.0 million per 12-month period.
• Share repurchases are limited to $ 30.0 million per calendar year.
On May 4, 2021, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company and certain foreign subsidiaries, as Borrowers, various subsidiaries of the Company, as Guarantors, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders party thereto, which amended the Credit Agreement.
The Company entered into the Amended Credit Agreement to obtain temporary relief from the financial covenants due to the continued decline in operating results. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company will not be required to comply with the Leverage Ratio and FCCR financial covenants for the quarters ending March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021, September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021.
The Amended Credit Agreement adds a number of new requirements and restrictions. During a “Covenant Relief Period” commencing May 4, 2021 and ending on the date on which the Company provides a compliance certificate for the quarter ending March 31, 2022:
• No revolving loans will be made under the credit facility.
• If any new letters of credit are issued during the Covenant Relief Period, the Company will be required to provide cash collateral equal to 50 % of the face value of the letter of credit (or 105 % of the face value of the letter of credit if the aggregate amount of letters of credit outstanding exceeds $ 100 million).
• At all times prior to July 1, 2021, the Company will be required to maintain at least $ 50.0 million of unrestricted cash. Beginning July 1, 2021, and at all times during the remainder of the Covenant Relief Period, the Company will be required to maintain at least $ 60.0 million of unrestricted cash. The requirement to maintain unrestricted cash is in addition to any cash which would be required as collateral for any new letters of credit.
• Acquisitions, stock repurchases under the Company’s existing stock buyback program and cash dividends are prohibited.

• Capital expenditures may not exceed $ 2.0 million in any fiscal quarter.
In addition to these provisions, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to generate Covenant EBITDA of at least:
• $ 2.5 million for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021;
• $ 8.0 million for the six months ending September 30, 2021; and
• $ 16.5 million for the nine months ending December 31, 2021.
As of March 31, 2021 , the Company had $ 41.4 million in letters of credit issued under the credit facility and no borrowings.
Note 6 – Income Taxes
Effective Tax Rate
Our effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021 were 28.2 % and 22.6 %, respectively; compared to 16.9 % and 5.9 % for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2020, respectively. Based on the third quarter and full year projected operating results for fiscal 2021, the Company, through provisions in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), has an income tax benefit from the ability to carryback the fiscal 2021 federal net operating loss five years. $ 3.2 million of this benefit impacts the effective rate for the third quarter and is a result of the statutory federal income tax rate differential between the current and carryback years. The effective rate during the quarter was negatively impacted by $ 1.9 million of valuation allowances on certain deferred tax assets. In prior quarters this fiscal year, the Company recorded $ 1.2 million of other discrete deferred tax asset adjustments, which negatively impacted the effective rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The Company estimates that it will receive a $ 7.8 million tax refund in connection with the carryback of the projected fiscal 2021 net operating loss, which is included in income taxes receivable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Deferred Payroll Taxes
The Company has deferred $ 11.1 million of U.S. payroll tax as of March 31, 2021 through provisions of CARES Act. The deferred payroll taxes are included within other accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company must repay half of the deferred payroll tax by December 31, 2021 and the remainder by December 31, 2022.
Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance Reserves
The Company maintains insurance coverage for various aspects of its operations. However, exposure to potential losses is retained through the use of deductibles, self-insured retentions and coverage limits.
Typically, our contracts require us to indemnify our customers for injury, damage or loss arising from the performance of our services and provide warranties for materials and workmanship. The Company may also be required to name the customer as an additional insured up to the limits of insurance available, or we may be required to purchase special insurance policies or surety bonds for specific customers or provide letters of credit in lieu of bonds to satisfy performance and financial guarantees on some projects. Matrix maintains a performance and payment bonding line sufficient to support the business. The Company generally requires its subcontractors to indemnify the Company and the Company’s customer and name the Company as an additional insured for activities arising out of the subcontractors’ work. We also require certain subcontractors to provide additional insurance policies, including surety bonds in favor of the Company, to secure the subcontractors’ work or as required by the subcontract.
There can be no assurance that our insurance and the additional insurance coverage provided by our subcontractors will fully protect us against a valid claim or loss under the contracts with our customers.

Unpriced Change Orders and Claims
Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts included revenues for unpriced change orders and claims of $ 16.6 million at March 31, 2021 and $ 14.5 million at June 30, 2020. Generally, collection of amounts related to unpriced change orders and claims is expected within twelve months. However, since customers may not pay these amounts until final resolution of related claims, collection of these amounts may extend beyond one year.
Other
During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company commenced litigation in an effort to collect accounts receivable from an iron and steel customer following the deterioration of the relationship in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The unpaid receivable balance at March 31, 2021 was $ 17.0 million. Litigation is unpredictable, however, based on the terms of the contract with this customer, the Company is entitled to collect the full amount owed under the contract.
The Company and its subsidiaries are participants in various legal actions. It is the opinion of management that none of the other known legal actions, including a contract dispute with a customer involving the construction of a crude terminal, will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
Note 8 – Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per share (“Basic EPS”) is calculated based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”) includes the dilutive effect of stock options and nonvested deferred shares. In the event we report a loss, stock options and nonvested deferred shares are not included since they are anti-dilutive.
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

Note 9 – Segment Information
Change in Reportable Segments
Due to changing markets facing our clients and to better align the financial reporting of the Company with our long-term strategic growth areas, we began reporting our financial results under new reportable segments effective July 1, 2020. The new reportable segments along with a description of each are as follows:
• Utility and Power Infrastructure : consists of power delivery services provided to investor owned utilities, including construction of new substations, upgrades of existing substations, transmission and distribution line installations, upgrades and maintenance, as well as emergency and storm restoration services. The Company also provides construction and maintenance services to a variety of power generation facilities, including gas fired facilities in simple or combined cycle configuration and provides engineering, fabrication, and construction services for LNG utility peak shaving facilities.
• Process and Industrial Facilities : primarily serves customers in the downstream and midstream petroleum industries who are engaged in refining crude oil and processing, fractionating, and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids. The Company also serves customers in various other industries such as petrochemical, sulfur, mining and minerals companies engaged primarily in the extraction of non-ferrous metals, aerospace and defense, cement, agriculture, and other industrial customers. The Company's services include plant maintenance, turnarounds, industrial cleaning services, engineering, fabrication, and capital construction.
• Storage and Terminal Solutions : consists of work related to aboveground storage tanks and terminals. Also included in this segment are cryogenic and other specialty storage tanks and terminals, including LNG, liquid nitrogen/liquid oxygen, liquid petroleum, hydrogen and other specialty vessels such as spheres, as well as marine structures and truck and rail loading/offloading facilities.

Finally, the Company offers tank products, including geodesic domes, aluminum internal floating roofs, floating suction and skimmer systems, roof drain systems and floating roof seals.
All prior period segment information has been restated to conform with our new reportable segments. In addition, beginning July 1, 2020, the Company is reporting separately corporate selling, general and administrative expenses and other corporate expenses that were previously allocated to the segments.
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on operating income. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at cost; therefore, no intercompany profit or loss is recognized.
Segment assets consist primarily of accounts receivable, costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, property, plant and equipment, right-of-use lease assets, goodwill and other intangible assets.

Note 10 – Restructuring Costs
During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company initiated a business improvement plan to increase profitability and reduce its cost structure related to:
• its strategic initiative to exit the domestic iron and steel industry;
• the implementation of business improvements in the power delivery portion of the Utility and Power Infrastructure segment; and
• the decline in revenue caused by the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and related market disruptions.
The business improvement plan consists of discretionary cost reductions, workforce reductions, reduction of capital expenditures and the reduction in size or closure of certain offices in order to increase the utilization of the Company's staff and bring the cost structure of the business in line with revenue volumes. The Company incurred $ 14.0 million of restructuring costs during fiscal 2020 and $6.6 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The restructuring costs consist primarily of severance costs, facility closure costs, intangible asset impairments and other liabilities as a result of exiting certain operations. The Company will continue to assess whether further reductions in its cost structure are necessary and may incur additional restructuring costs in the near-term.
