Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

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 consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2021, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2021 may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations for the full year ending June 30, 2022.
Significant Accounting Policies
We updated our significant accounting policies as a result of entering into an asset-backed credit agreement (the "ABL Facility"), which requires us to maintain a restricted cash balance (See Note 5 - Debt for more information about the ABL Facility). Our 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, 2021.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The ABL Facility requires us to maintain a minimum of $25.0 million of restricted cash at all times. Since this cash must be restricted through the maturity date of the ABL Facility, which is beyond one year, we have classified this restricted cash as non-current in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, we must maintain a restricted cash balance of $2.6 million in support of the purchase card program that is associated with our prior card administrator while we transition to our new card administrator. We have included this restricted cash in current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets since we expect to terminate the prior purchase card program during fiscal 2022.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to the total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in thousands):

Note 2 – Revenue
Remaining Performance Obligations
We had $ 396.8 million of remaining performance obligations yet to be satisfied as of December 31, 2021 . We expect to recognize $ 326.6 million of our remaining performance obligations as revenue within the next twelve months.

Contract Balances
Contract terms with customers include the timing of billing and payments, 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:
December 31,
2021 June 30,
2021 Change
(in thousands)
Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts $ 34,503 $ 30,774 $ 3,729
Billings on uncompleted contracts in excess of costs and estimated earnings ( 84,859 ) ( 53,832 ) ( 31,027 )
Net contract liabilities $ ( 50,356 ) $ ( 23,058 ) $ ( 27,298 )
The difference between the beginning and ending balances of our CIE and BIE primarily results from the timing of revenue recognized relative to its billings. The amount of revenue recognized during the six months ended December 31, 2021 that was included in the June 30, 2021 BIE balance was $ 48.4 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 December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 included retentions to be collected within one year of $ 13.6 million and $ 19.9 million, respectively. Contract retentions collectible beyond one year are included in other assets, non-current in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and totaled $ 2.1 million as of December 31, 2021 and $ 3.1 million as of June 30, 2021.

Typically, we assume 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 for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 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 $ 5.9 million. The change in forecasted costs was principally due to unexpected equipment repairs during commissioning that delayed the scheduled completion and increased the estimated costs to complete. We achieved a critical performance milestone in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, which significantly reduced our financial exposure and resulted in no change to the expected outcome of the project.
Our results of operations were materially impacted by an increase in the costs required to complete a thermal energy storage tank repair and maintenance project in the Storage and Terminal Solutions segment, which resulted in a decrease in gross profit of $ 2.8 million and $ 5.5 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in costs was primarily due to changes in repair scope, expanded client weld testing and associated schedule delays. We expect to complete these repairs in the second half of fiscal 2022.
Note 3 – Leases
We enter into lease arrangements for real estate, construction equipment and information technology equipment in the normal course of business. Real estate leases accounted for approximately 94 % of all right-of-use assets as of December 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 14 years. Construction equipment leases generally have "month-to-month" lease terms that automatically renew as long as the equipment remains in use.
The components of lease expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income are as follows:

We test our 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, we concluded, that based on the totality of both positive and negative factors, no impairment indicators existed at December 31, 2021. However, based on future operating performance and economic factors, including our future share price, we may need to perform an interim goodwill impairment test, which could result in an impairment.

Note 5 – Debt
ABL Credit Facility
On September 9, 2021 , we and our primary U.S. and Canada operating subsidiaries entered into an asset-backed credit agreement (the "ABL Facility") as borrowers with Bank of Montreal, as Administrative Agent, Swing-Line Lender, a Letter of Credit Issuer and a Lender. The ABL Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of our remaining U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries. The ABL Facility provides for available borrowings of up to $ 100.0 million, which may be increased further by an amount not to exceed $ 15.0 million, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining additional commitments. The ABL Facility is intended to be used for working capital, capital expenditures, issuances of letters of credit and other lawful purposes. Our obligations under the ABL Facility are secured by a first lien on all our assets and the assets of our co-borrowers and guarantors under the ABL Facility.

The maximum amount that we may borrow under the ABL Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on restricted cash plus a percentage of the value of certain accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, reduced for certain reserves. We are required to maintain a minimum of $25.0 million of restricted cash at all times, but such amounts are also included in the borrowing base. The ABL Facility matures and any outstanding amounts become due and payable on September 9, 2026 .
At December 31, 2021 , our borrowing base was $ 70.1 million and we had $ 33.4 million in letters of credit outstanding issued by Bank of Montreal, which resulted in availability of $ 36.7 million under the ABL Facility. In addition, there were $ 9.5 million in letters of credit outstanding issued by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPMorgan"). JPMorgan was the administrative agent of our former senior secured revolving credit facility, which was terminated and replaced with the ABL Facility. The JPMorgan letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2021 were in the process of being replaced by Bank of Montreal letters of credit, and that process was substantially complete at the end of January. The letters of credit outstanding from Bank of Montreal had reduced from $ 33.4 million as of December 31, 2021 to $ 23.6 million as of January 31, 2022. In addition, the letters of credit outstanding from JPMorgan had reduced from $ 9.5 million as of December 31, 2021 to $ 0.2 million as of January 31, 2022.
Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon, at our option, an annual rate equal to any of a base rate (“Base Rate”), Canadian prime rate, CDOR rate or a LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin. The Base Rate is defined as a fluctuating interest rate equal to the greatest of (i) rate of interest announced by Bank of Montreal from time to time as its prime rate; (ii) the U.S. federal funds rate plus 0.50 %; (iii) LIBOR rate for one month period plus 1.00 %; and (iv) 1.00 %. Depending on the amount of average availability, the applicable margin is between 1.00 % to 1.50 % for either U.S. Base Rate Loans or Canadian prime rate, and between 2.00 % and 2.50 % for CDOR and LIBOR rate borrowings. Interest is payable either (i) monthly for Base Rate borrowings or (ii) the last day of the interest period for LIBOR or CDOR rate borrowings, as set forth in the Credit Agreement. The fee for undrawn amounts is 0.25 % per annum and is due quarterly.
The ABL Facility contains customary conditions to borrowings, events of default and covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants that restrict our ability to sell assets, engage in mergers and acquisitions, incur, assume or permit to exist additional indebtedness and guarantees, create or permit to exist liens, pay cash dividends, issue equity instruments, make distribution or redeem or repurchase capital stock. In the event that our availability is less than the greater of (i) $ 15.0 million and (ii) 15.00 % of the commitments under the ABL Facility then in effect, a consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.00 to 1.00 must be maintained. We are in compliance with all covenants of the ABL Facility as of December 31, 2021.
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
The ABL Facility replaced the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Prior Credit Agreement"), that was entered into on November 2, 2020, and subsequently amended on May 4, 2021, by and among us and certain foreign subsidiaries, as Borrowers, various subsidiaries of ours, as Guarantors, JPMorgan, as Administrative Agent, Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Book Runner, and the other Lenders party thereto. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for a three-year senior secured revolving credit facility of $ 200.0 million that was set to expire November 2, 2023 .
We had no borrowings and $ 41.3 million of letters of credit outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement as of the date we commenced the ABL Facility. As of December 31, 2021 there were $ 9.5 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement, which decreased to $ 0.2 million outstanding as of January 31, 2022. Interest expense during the six months ended December 31, 2021 included $1.5 million of accelerated amortization of deferred debt amendment fees associated with the Prior Credit Agreement.
Note 6 – Income Taxes
Effective Tax Rate
Our effective tax rates were ( 78.7 )% and ( 15.5 )% for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 , compared to 20.9 % and 11.0 % during the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, respectively. The effective tax rates in fiscal 2022 were negatively impacted by a $ 14.2 million valuation allowance placed on our deferred tax assets during the second quarter. The effective tax rates in fiscal 2021 were negatively impacted by deferred tax asset adjustments of $ 0.2 million and $ 1.2 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, respectively.

In determining the need for a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, the accounting standards provide that the existence of a cumulative loss over a three-year period generally precludes the use of management’s projections of future taxable income. Consequently, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets in the U.S. taxable jurisdiction in the amount of $14.2 million. These assets are primarily comprised of federal net operating losses, which have an indefinite carryforward, federal tax credits and those state net operating losses for which a valuation allowance did not previously exist. To the extent the Company generates taxable income in the future, or cumulative losses are no longer present and our future projections for growth or tax planning strategies are demonstrated, we will realize the benefit associated with the net operating losses for which the valuation allowance has been provided.
Net Operating Loss Carryback Refund
Through provisions in the CARES Act, we had an income tax benefit from the ability to carryback the fiscal 2021 federal net operating loss to a period with a higher statutory federal income tax rate. We estimate that we will receive a $ 12.6 million tax refund in connection with this carryback, which is included in income taxes receivable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Refund of Overpayment of Estimated Taxes
In January 2022, we received a $ 2.4 million tax refund in connection with overpayments of estimated taxes from prior years, which was included in income taxes receivable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2021.
Deferred Payroll Taxes
As of September 30, 2021, we deferred a total of $ 11.1 million of U.S. payroll tax through provisions of CARES Act. We repaid half of the deferred payroll tax outstanding during the three months ended December 31, 2021 and must repay the remaining balance by December 31, 2022. The remaining balance of deferred payroll taxes is included within accrued wages and benefits in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance Reserves
We maintain insurance coverage for various aspects of our operations. However, we retain exposure to potential losses 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. We 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. We maintain a performance and payment bonding line sufficient to support the business. We generally require our subcontractors to indemnify us and our customer and name us 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 us, 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 $ 10.1 million at December 31, 2021 and $ 14.6 million at June 30, 2021. The amounts ultimately realized may be significantly different than the recorded amounts resulting in a material adjustment to future earnings. 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.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we 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 December 31, 2021 was $ 17.0 million. Litigation is unpredictable, however, based on the terms of the contract with this customer, we believe we are entitled to collect the full amount owed under the contract.
We and our subsidiaries are participants in various legal actions. It is the opinion of management that none of the other known legal actions will have a material impact on our 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 10 – Restructuring Costs
In fiscal 2020, we initiated a business improvement plan to increase profitability and reduce our cost structure in order to help us become more competitive and deliver higher quality service. As a result of specific events, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and related market disruptions, the Company expanded its business improvement plan.
The business improvement plan consisted of an initial phase 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 our staff and bring the cost structure of the business in line with revenue volumes. In fiscal 2022, we commenced a second phase of our plan to focus on centralization of support functions, including business development, accounting, human resources, procurement and project services into shared service centers. We incurred $0.7 million and $1.3 million of restructuring costs during the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 and $22.1 million of restructuring costs since inception of the plan. The restructuring costs consist primarily of severance costs, facility closure costs, consulting fees and other liabilities.
