Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and the Stockholders of
Ranger Energy Services, Inc.
Houston, Texas
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Ranger Energy Services, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated March 5, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion.
Basis for opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 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 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 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 financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the 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.
Section 382 Ownership Change
As described further in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company concluded an ownership change occurred during the year as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Section 382”). Upon the occurrence of a Section 382 ownership change, there are limitations on the utilization of certain net operating loss carryforwards. We identified the conclusion that an ownership change occurred under Section 382 as a critical audit matter.
The principal consideration for our determination that the conclusion that an ownership change occurring under Section 382 is a critical audit matter is that there are significant judgments required by management in interpreting and applying Section
45
382 to determine whether an ownership change has occurred. This determination required challenging and complex auditor judgment and the need to involve tax specialists when performing audit procedures to evaluate management’s conclusion.
Our audit procedures related to the critical audit matter included the following, among others:
• We tested the effectiveness of controls over the review of the analysis and conclusion related to the Company’s determination of whether a change in ownership occurred under Section 382.
• We tested the mathematical accuracy of the calculations in management’s analysis.
• With the assistance of our tax specialists, we evaluated the Company’s analysis of whether a change in ownership occurred, including management’s process for interpreting Section 382.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, all material adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial results for all periods presented have been reflected. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
We have made a certain reclassification to our prior period operating activities amount where Gain on disposal of property and equipment has been itemized separately from Other expense, net for year-over-year comparability purposes. This reclassification does not have an impact on our consolidated operating results, cash flows or financial position.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management uses historical and other pertinent information to determine these estimates. Actual results could differ from such estimates. Areas where critical accounting estimates are made by management include:
52
• Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets;
• Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations;
• Impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets;
• Income taxes; and
• Equity-based compensation.
Significant Accounting Policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash accounts in financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. From time to time, cash balances may exceed the insured amounts, however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risks.
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts receivable, net are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Before extending credit, the Company reviews a customer’s credit history and generally does not require collateral from its customers. The allowance for credit losses is established as losses are estimated and are recorded through a provision for bad debts. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a receivable is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance for credit losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and based on past experience and other factors, which, in management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating possible bad debts. Such factors include growth and composition of accounts receivable, the relationship of the allowance for credit losses to accounts receivable and current economic conditions. The allowance for credit losses was $ 3.8 million and $ 3.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Bad debt expense recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $ 0.9 million and $ 0.2 million, respectively.
Balance at Beginning of Year Charged to Operations Written Off Balance at End of Year
Allowance for Credit Losses
2023 $ 3.0 $ 0.9 $ ( 0.1 ) $ 3.8
2022 $ 2.8 $ 0.2 $ — $ 3.0
Inventories
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value and primarily consists of supplies held for the Wireline Services segment. The Company accounts for inventory using the weighted average cost method.
Leases
Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, discounted at an annual incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”). ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. For certain leases, where variable lease payments are incurred and relate primarily to common area maintenance, in substance fixed payments are included in the ROU asset and lease liability. For those leases that do not provide an implicit rate, we use an IBR based on the estimated rate of interest for a fully collateralized, fully amortizing loan over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. ROU assets also include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Lease terms do not include options to extend or terminate the lease, as management does not consider them reasonably certain to exercise at this time. Leases with terms of 12 months or less are considered short-term leases and therefore payments are recorded as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Any lease and non-components are combined.
Operating Leases
The Company enters into operating leases, primarily for real estate, with terms that vary from less than 12 months to nine years , where certain of the leases contain escalation clauses. The operating leases are included in Short-term lease liability and Long-term lease liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease costs associated with our yards and field
53
offices are included in Cost of Services and our executive offices are included in General and Administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Finance Leases
The Company enters into lease arrangements for certain equipment, which are considered finance leases and generally have a term of three to five years . The assets and liabilities under finance leases are recorded at the lower of present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the assets. The assets are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful lives or over the lease term. The finance leases are included in Property and equipment, net, Short-term lease liability and Long-term lease liability in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment is stated at cost or estimated fair market value at the acquisition date less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged to expense on the straight‑line basis over the estimated useful life of each asset. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments are capitalized while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred. Depreciation does not begin until property and equipment is placed in service. Once placed in service, depreciation on property and equipment continues while being repaired, refurbished or between periods of deployment.
Long‑Lived Asset Impairment
The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying value of long‑lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets, whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If a long‑lived asset is tested for recoverability and the undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset cost is adjusted to fair value and an impairment loss is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long‑lived asset exceeds its fair value.
Intangible Assets
Identified intangible assets with determinable lives consist of customer relationships. Customer relationships are straight-line amortized over their estimated useful lives.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. In valuing certain assets and liabilities, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, which are summarized, as follows:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs.
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables and accounts payables and debt. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables and accounts payables, which are determined to be Level 1 measurements, approximate fair value due to the short‑term nature of these instruments. The carrying value reported for debt approximates fair value because the underlying instruments are at interest rates which approximate current market rates and is considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy The Company did not have any assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Revenue Recognition
In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as the Company fulfills the obligations under its contracts with customers, the following steps must be performed at contract inception: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when, or as the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The services of each segment are based on mutually agreed upon pricing with the customer prior to the services being performed and, given the nature of the services, do not include any warranty or right of return. Pricing for services are offered at hourly or daily rates, where the rates are, in part, determined by when services are performed and the nature of the specific
54
job, with consideration for the extent of equipment, labor and consumables needed. Accordingly, the agreed-upon pricing is considered to be variable consideration. Pricing for equipment rentals is based on fixed monthly service fees.
We satisfy our performance obligation over time as the services are performed. The Company believes the output method is a reasonable measure of progress for the satisfaction of our performance obligations, which are satisfied over time, as it provides a faithful depiction of (i) our performance toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation under the contract and (ii) the value transferred to the customer of the services performed under the contract. The Company elected the “right to invoice” practical expedient for recognizing revenue. The Company invoices customers upon completion of the specified services and collection generally occurs within the payment terms agreed upon with customers. Accordingly, there is no financing component to our arrangements with customers.
The Company will periodically incur costs to fulfill contracts with customers and will defer such costs over the earlier of 12 months or the estimated number of months in which they are expected to be consumed. The deferred costs are included within Prepaid assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized deferred expenses of $ 0.8 million and $ 0.7 million, respectively.
All revenue transactions are presented on a net of sales tax in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Contract Balances
Contract assets representing the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed amounted to $ 17.7 million and $ 26.9 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Substantially all of the contract assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were invoiced during the subsequent periods.
The Company does not have any contract liabilities included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income tax expense based on the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based upon differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. 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. Under U.S. GAAP, the valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the Company’s deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized and is based upon the uncertainty of the realization of certain federal and state deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends on the generation of sufficient taxable income.
As the Company continues to experience increasing profits and no longer has a trailing 3-year cumulative taxable loss, we currently believe that it is more likely than not to fully utilize all deferred tax assets including those associated with the net operating loss carry-forward. Accordingly, the Company released all valuation allowances of $ 1.7 million previously recorded resulting in a discrete tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2023. Deferred tax expense or benefit is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities and associated valuation allowances during the period. The impact of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken on an income tax return is recognized in the financial statements at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authority.
The income tax provision reflects the full benefit of all positions that have been taken in the Company's income tax returns, except to the extent that such positions are uncertain and fall below the recognition requirements. In the event that the Company determines that a tax position meets the uncertainty criteria, an additional liability or benefit will result. The amount of unrecognized tax benefit requires management to make significant assumptions about the expected outcomes of certain tax positions included in filed or yet to be filed tax returns. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions. The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and in numerous state tax jurisdictions. The Company’s tax filings for 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are subject to audit by the federal and state taxing authorities in most jurisdictions where we conduct business. None of the Company’s federal or state tax returns are currently under examination. In the event our tax filings are audited, we may be subject to assessments of additional taxes that are resolved with the authorities or through the courts.

Equity-Based Compensation
The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect various equity-based compensation awards granted by Ranger Inc. These awards include restricted stock awards and performance stock units. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to equity-based awards based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. The fair value of the equity-based awards on the grant date is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective awards. The fair value of the restricted stock awards are estimated using the market price of the Company’s shares on the grant date. The fair value of the performance stock units are estimated using an option pricing model that includes certain assumptions, such as volatility, dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate. Changes in these assumptions could change the fair value of our unit-based awards and associated compensation expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Forfeitures of all equity-based compensation are recognized as they occur.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently adopted accounting standards
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology to reflect expected credit losses. The amendment requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date to be performed based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2023. This adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for accounting contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offering Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to the reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 became effective as of March 12, 2020 and can be applied through December 31, 2022, recently amended by ASU 2022-06 which has delayed the application date through December 31, 2024. On September 23, 2022, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (the Eclipse Loan and Security Agreement, as amended through and including the Fourth Amendment, the “Amended Loan Agreement”) with Eclipse Business Capital LLC (“EBC”) and Eclipse Business Capital SPV, LLC where the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) replaced LIBOR as the reference rate for interest on borrowings, effective October 1, 2022. On May 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo, NA. with SOFR as the reference rate for interest on borrowings.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”), which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Upon transition, the segment expense categories and amounts disclosed in the prior periods should be based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (3) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Total income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of state income taxes as well as certain non-deductible expenses offset by the benefit from the release of a previously recorded valuation allowance against deferred tax assets and for the year ended December 31, 2022 primarily due to the change in valuation allowance of $ 1.5 million and bargain purchase gain of $ 0.8 million.
Historically, utilization of a portion of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards has been subject to limitations of utilization under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Section 382”), as amended. The Company incurred an ownership change, triggering another Section 382 loss limitation, during the three months ended June 30, 2023.
As the Company continues to experience increasing profits and no longer has a trailing 3-year cumulative taxable loss, we currently believe that it is more likely than not to fully utilize all deferred tax assets including those associated with the net operating loss carry-forward. Accordingly, the Company released all valuation allowances previously recorded resulting in a discrete tax benefit for the period ended September 30, 2023.

Other tax matters

The Company has evaluated all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remains open and believes that the material positions taken would more likely than not be sustained upon examination. Therefore, as of December 31, 2023, the Company had not established any reserves for, nor recorded any unrecognized benefits related to, uncertain tax positions.

Note 15 — Related Party Transactions
Stockholders’ Agreement
In connection with the Offering, Ranger entered into a stockholders’ agreement (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”) with the Legacy Owners and the Bridge Loan Lenders (defined below). Among other things, the Stockholders’ Agreement provides CSL and Bayou Wells Holdings Company, LLC (“Bayou Holdings”) with the right to designate nominees to Ranger’s Board of Directors (each, as applicable, a “CSL Director” or “Bayou Director”) as follows:
• for so long as CSL beneficially owns at least 50 % of Ranger’s common stock, at least three members of the Board of Directors shall be CSL Directors and at least two members of the Board of Directors shall be Bayou Directors (which may include Brett Agee or any other person that may be designated by Bayou Holdings in accordance with the terms of the Stockholders’ Agreement);
• for so long as CSL beneficially owns less than 50 % but at least 30 % of Ranger’s common stock, at least three members of the Board of Directors shall be CSL Directors;
• for so long as CSL beneficially owns less than 30 % but at least 20 % of Ranger’s common stock, at least two members of the Board of Directors shall be CSL Directors;
• for so long as CSL beneficially owns less than 20 % but at least 10 % of Ranger’s common stock, at least one member of the Board of Directors shall be a CSL Director; and
• once CSL beneficially owns less than 10 % of Ranger’s common stock, CSL will not have any Board designation rights.
66
In the event the size of Ranger’s Board of Directors is increased or decreased at any time to other than eight directors, CSL’s nomination rights will be proportionately increased or decreased, respectively, rounded up to the nearest whole number.
Registration Rights Agreement
On August 16, 2017, in connection with the closing of the Offering, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with certain stockholders (the “Holders”).
Pursuant to, and subject to the limitations set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, at any time after the 180 -day lock-up period, the Holders have the right to require the Company, by written notice, to prepare and file a registration statement registering the offer and sale of a number of their shares of Class A Common Stock. Reasonably in advance of the filing of any such registration statement, the Company is required to provide notice of the request to all other Holders who may participate in the registration. The Company is required to use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of any such registration statement until all shares covered by such registration statement have been sold. Subject to certain exceptions, the Company is not obligated to effect such a registration within 90 days after the closing of any underwritten offering of shares of Class A Common Stock requested by the Holders pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements. The Company is also not obligated to effect any registration where such registration has been requested by the holders of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) which represent less than $ 25 million, based on the five-day volume weighted average trading price of the Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange.
In addition, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Holders have the right to require the Company, subject to certain limitations set forth therein, to effect a distribution of any or all of their shares of Class A Common Stock by means of an underwritten offering. Further, subject to certain exceptions, if at any time the Company proposes to register an offering of its equity securities or conduct an underwritten offering, whether or not for its account, then the Company must notify the Holders of such proposal at least three business days before the anticipated filing date or commencement of the underwritten offering, as applicable, to allow them to include a specified number of their shares in that registration statement or underwritten offering, as applicable.
These registration rights are subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters to limit the number of shares to be included in a registration or offering and the Company’s right to delay or withdraw a registration statement under certain circumstances. The Company will generally pay all registration expenses in connection with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, regardless of whether a registration statement is filed or becomes effective.
The obligations to register shares under the Registration Rights Agreement will terminate as to any Holder when the Registrable Securities held by such Holder are no longer subject to any restrictions on trading under the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including any volume or manner of sale restrictions. Registrable Securities means all shares of Class A Common Stock owned at any particular point in time by a Holder other than shares (i) sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) sold in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (iii) that have ceased to be outstanding or (iv) that are eligible for resale without restriction and without the need for current public information pursuant to any section of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
Payments and Purchases
The Company incurred $ 0.2 million and $ 0.3 million in expenses to CSL and other board members for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2022, amounts collected from Board member Brett Agee was approximately $ 0.2 million for asset sales.

Note 16 — Segment Reporting
The Company’s operations are located in the United States and organized into three reporting segments: High Specification Rigs, Wireline Services, and Processing Solutions and Ancillary Services. The reportable segments comprise the structure used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to make key operating decisions and assess performance during the years presented in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. The reportable segments have been categorized based on services provided in each line of business. The tables below present the operating income (loss) measurement, as the Company believes this is most consistent with the principals used in measuring the financial statements.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company determined fixed assets are routinely utilized across multiple segments and Management does not utilize the net property and equipment value as a metric to evaluate the profitability of the respective segments. Therefore, the net property and equipment values have been removed from the segment data presented below.

Note 17 — Subsequent Events
In 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Security Act (the “CARES Act”) as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, aiming to offer certain reliefs. Among the stimulus measures included in the CARES Act is a provision for an Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”), a refundable tax credit for employers who retained employees on the payroll during the pandemic. We are currently in the process of finalizing claims and anticipate receiving payment from the United States Internal Revenue Service with respect to the ERC in 2024.
In 2024, the Company has continued repurchasing shares in the open market. Total shares repurchased through February 29, 2024 amounts to 736,800 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock for an aggregate $ 7.3 million.
On March 4, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved for a new share repurchase program authorization not to exceed $ 50.0 million in aggregate value. Additionally, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $ 0.05 per share payable April 5, 2024 to common stockholders of record at the close of business on March 15, 2024. The declaration of any future dividends is subject to the Board of Directors’ discretion and approval.
