General Description of Business
On November 1, 2022, we completed the sale of all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of our wholly-owned subsidiary, TQ Acquisition, to Baker Hughes for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $279 million, reflecting certain estimated post-closing adjustments, pursuant to the Sale Agreement. TQ Acquisition and its subsidiaries constituted our Quest Integrity segment, which provided integrity and reliability management solutions for the process, pipeline and power sectors.
As of September 30, 2022, the criteria for reporting Quest Integrity as a discontinued operation were met and, as such, all periods presented in this Form 10-Q have been recast to present Quest Integrity as a discontinued operation. Unless otherwise specified, the financial information and discussion in this Form 10-Q are based on our continuing operations (IHT and MS segments) and exclude any results of our discontinued operations (Quest Integrity). Refer to Note 2 - Discontinued Operations for additional details.
We are a global leading provider of integrated, digitally-enabled asset performance assurance and optimization solutions. We deploy conventional to highly specialized inspection, condition assessment, maintenance and repair services that result in greater safety, reliability and operational efficiency for our clients’ most critical assets. We conduct operations in two segments: IHT, MS. Prior to the sale of Quest integrity, we operated Quest Integrity as our third segment. Through the capabilities and resources in these segments, we believe that we are uniquely qualified to provide integrated solutions involving: inspection to assess condition; engineering assessment to determine fitness for purpose in the context of industry standards and regulatory codes; and mechanical services to repair, rerate or replace based upon the client’s election. In addition, we are capable of scaling with the client’s needs, as dictated by the severity of the damage found and the related operating conditions, from standard services to some of the most advanced services and integrated asset integrity and reliability management solutions available in the industry. We also believe that we are unique in our ability to provide services in three distinct client demand profiles: (i) turnaround or project services, (ii) call-out services and (iii) nested or run-and-maintain services.
IHT provides conventional and advanced NDT services primarily for the process, pipeline and power sectors, and pipeline integrity management services, and field heat treating and thermal services, tank management solutions, and pipeline integrity solutions, as well as associated engineering and condition assessment services. These services can be offered while facilities are running (on-stream), during facility turnarounds or during new construction or expansion activities. IHT also provides advanced digital imaging including remote digital video imaging and laser scanning services.
MS provides solutions designed to serve clients’ unique needs during both the operational (onstream) and off-line states of their assets. Our onstream services include our range of standard to custom-engineered leak repair and composite solutions; emissions control and compliance; hot tapping and line stopping; and on-line valve insertion solutions, which are delivered while assets are in an operational condition, which maximizes client production time. Asset shutdowns can be planned, such as a turnaround maintenance event, or unplanned, such as those due to component failure or equipment breakdowns. Our specialty maintenance, turnaround and outage services are designed to minimize client downtime and are primarily delivered while assets are off-line and often through the use of cross-certified technicians, whose multi-craft capabilities deliver the production needed to achieve tight time schedules. These critical services include on-site field machining; bolted-joint integrity; vapor barrier plug testing; and valve management solutions.
Prior to its sale, Quest Integrity provided integrity and reliability management solutions for the process, pipeline and power sectors. These solutions encompass two broadly-defined disciplines: (1) highly specialized in-line inspection services for historically unpiggable process piping and pipelines using proprietary in-line inspection tools and analytical software; and (2) advanced engineering and condition assessment services through a multi-disciplined engineering team and related lab support. As referenced previously, Quest Integrity is now reported as discontinued operations.
We market our services to companies in a diverse array of heavy industries which include:
• Energy (refining, power, renewables, nuclear and liquefied natural gas);
40
Table of Contents
• Manufacturing and Process (chemical, petrochemical, pulp and paper industries, manufacturing, automotive and mining);
• Midstream and Others (valves, terminals and storage, pipeline and offshore oil and gas);
• Public Infrastructure (amusement parks, bridges, ports, construction and building, roads, dams and railways); and
• Aerospace and Defense.
In January 2021, we announced a strategic reorganization (the “Operating Group Reorganization”). The new streamlined structure supports our global operations with greater focus on further improving operational and financial performance through three new operating groups: Inspection and Heat Treating Group (the “IHT Group”), Mechanical & Onstream Services group (the “MOS Group”) and Asset Integrity & Digital (the “AID Group”). The IHT Group, which is included in the IHT segment, is dedicated to growing its stable nested footprint as regulatory compliance requirements increase, expanding turnaround activity, and diversifying its end markets globally, such as through increased investment in the Aerospace business line. The MOS Group, which is included in the MS segment, continues to target turnarounds and capital projects, and improve performance, efficiency, and longevity of aging critical assets. The MOS Group is primed to grow with the industry recovery led by the high demand of maintenance and call-out work. The AID Group, which was included in our Quest Integrity segment, focuses on expanding mechanical and pipeline integrity, risk-based inspection, remote visual inspection, and digital platform. The AID Group is also dedicated to optimize our research and development activities, including product and technology development. Following the sale of our Quest Integrity segment, the remaining operations of our AID group are included in our IHT segment. These changes had no effect on our reportable segments: IHT and MS.
Significant Factors Impacting Results and Recent Developments
Our revenues, gross margins and other results of operations can be influenced by a variety of factors in any given period, including those described in Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements above and Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K “Risk Factors” which includes items that have caused fluctuations in our results in the past and are expected to cause fluctuations in our results in the future. Additional information with respect to certain factors are described below.
COVID-19 Pandemic and Market Conditions Update. The lingering impact of COVID-19 had less effect on our workforce and operations during the third quarter of 2022, as well as the operations of our clients, suppliers and contractors. However, the global economy, including the financial and credit markets, has recently experienced significant volatility and disruptions, including increases in inflation rates, rising interest rates, disruption to global supply chains, declines in economic growth, volatility in foreign currency exchange rates, and uncertainty about economic stability. The severity and duration of the impact of these conditions on our business cannot be predicted. See Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K “Risk Factors” for additional information.
Recent Financing Transactions. During 2022 the Company executed a number of amendments to its debt instruments, including amendments to our ABL Credit Facility, Subordinated Term Loan Credit Agreement, Term Loan Credit Agreement and entered into a new Substitute Insurance Reimbursement Facility Agreement. Refer to Note 12 - Debt to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details related to these amendments.
Listing Notices from NYSE. The Company’s share price and total market capitalization have fallen below NYSE listing standard thresholds and therefore the Company received the following notices of non-compliance from the NYSE .
• On June 17, 2022, the Company was notified by the NYSE that the Company was no longer in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards set forth in Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual due to the fact that the Company’s average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period was less than $50.0 million and, at the same time, its shareholders’ equity was less than $50.0 million. The notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to trade on the NYSE during the applicable cure period, and does not result in a default under the Company’s material debt or other agreements.
• As required by the NYSE, the Company notified the NYSE of its intent to cure the market capitalization and/or shareholders’ equity deficiency and restore its compliance with NYSE continued listing standards. In accordance with applicable NYSE procedures, on August 1, 2022 the Company submitted a plan advising the NYSE of the definitive actions the Company has taken and is taking that would bring it into compliance with NYSE continued listing standards within 18 months of receipt of the written notice. The NYSE accepted the plan and the Company’s common stock will

continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the 18-month period from June 17, 2022, subject to the Company’s compliance with other NYSE continued listing standards and continued periodic review by the NYSE of the Company’s progress with respect to its plan. The Company can provide no assurances that it will be able to satisfy any of the steps outlined in the plan approved by the NYSE and maintain the listing of its shares on the NYSE.
• On July 13, 2022, the Company was notified by the NYSE that it was not in compliance with the continued listing standards set forth in Rule 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requiring listed companies to maintain an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. However, on September 1, 2022, the Company was notified by the NYSE that it had regained compliance with the minimum share price requirement.
• On November 2, 2022, the Company was notified by the NYSE that it was not in compliance with the continued listing standards set forth in Rule 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requiring listed companies to maintain an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to trade on the NYSE during the applicable cure period, and does not result in a default under the Company’s material debt or other agreements.

Revenues. Total revenues increased $20.5 million or 10.3% from the prior year quarter driven by increases in both operating segments of MS and IHT. Continuing operations revenues were impacted from foreign exchange negatively by $4.9 million and positively by $2.9 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. IHT revenues increased by $8.8 million or 8.7% and MS revenue increased by $11.6 million or 12.1%. IHT segment’s revenue increased primarily due to higher turnaround, call out and nested activity in the United States and Canada compared to the prior year quarter. MS revenues increased primarily due to higher activity in our U.S. and Latin American operations related to leak

repair, hot tapping services, and the U.S. valve business, partially offset by decreases in international revenue due to non-repeating project work in the United Kingdom.
Operating income (loss). Overall operating loss was $1.7 million in the current year quarter compared to an operating loss of $72.2 million in the prior year quarter. The overall decrease in operating loss is primarily attributable to our MS segment which experienced an increase in operating income of $60.9 million as compared to the prior year, primarily due to no impairments recorded for goodwill this quarter compared to a $55.8 million goodwill impairment that was recorded in the prior year quarter, a $0.8 million increase in the Canada business, a $0.5 million increase in the valve business, and realized efficiency gains in equipment centers, manufacturing, and engineering; partially offset by lack of COVID-19 related subsidies in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. IHT operating income increased by $4.3 million due to higher activity and revenue realization in the U.S. business and savings in overhead costs, partially offset by the completion of a Canadian customer contract in the current period, and COVID-19 related subsidies received in 2021 period, which were not received in 2022. Corporate operating loss decreased due to lower professional fees and legal costs in the current quarter compared to prior year quarter and lower overall costs due to the Company’s cost reduction efforts. In spite of our cost reduction efforts, we continue to experience cost inflation in several areas across all segments, such as raw materials, transportation, and labor costs.
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, operating loss includes net expenses totaling $2.8 million and $60.3 million, respectively, that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating activities, as detailed by segment in the table below (in thousands):

Table of Contents
Interest expense, net. Interest expense increased by $16.7 million compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to a $143.0 million increase in outstanding debt attributable to the debt financing executed during the quarter ended March 31, 2022 and accelerated amortization of deferred financing costs, debt and warrant discounts and debt issuance costs. Due to the various maturity trigger events, the amortization period for deferred financing costs, debt and warrant discounts and debt issuance costs was shortened to reflect the accelerated maturity dates. This resulted in an additional $10.6 million in amortization charges during the three months ended September 30, 2022. Refer to Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices for additional liquidity and going concern discussion.
Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense), net improved $4.1 million from the prior year quarter expense of $0.9 million to a net gain of $3.2 million primarily due to foreign currency fluctuations and gain on disposal of assets in the current quarter.
Taxes . The provision for income tax was $1.5 million on the pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $25.2 million in the current year quarter, compared to a $7.4 million income tax provision on a pre-tax loss of $83.0 million in the prior year quarter. The effective tax rate, inclusive of discrete items, was a provision of 5.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a provision of 8.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The effective tax rate change from the prior year quarter compared to the current year quarter is due to an increase in the valuation allowance.

Revenues. Total revenues increased $37.9 million or 6.4% from the prior year period, with all segments seeing increases compared to prior year period. IHT revenues increased by $10.0 million and MS revenue increased by $27.9 million. Continuing operations revenues were impacted from foreign exchange negatively by $8.5 million and positively by $13.4 million during the nine months period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. IHT segment year to date revenue increased 3.2%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily driven by increases in U.S. business activity partially offset by decreases in Canada and international locations. MS segment revenue increased 9.9% compared to the prior year

period, due to increases in the U.S. market activities, primarily from increases in leak repair and hot tap services as well as the domestic valve business.
Operating loss. Overall operating loss was $34.9 million in the current year period compared to an operating loss of $108.0 million in the prior year period. The overall improvement in operating loss is attributable to the 2021 period including a MS goodwill impairment charge of $55.8 million with no such charge in the 2022 period, improvement in the valve business of $2.5 million, a $2.3 million increase in Canadian business and cost improvements in machinery, engineering and equipment centers. IHT experienced an increase in operating income due to an increase in U.S. income offset by a decline in the Canadian business. Corporate operating loss decreased due to cost reductions, lower non-cash compensation cost and lower legal expense, partially offset by higher professional fees in 2022.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, operating loss includes net expenses totaling $16.9 million and $68.3 million, respectively, that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating activities as they relate to one time or non-reoccurring items, as detailed by segment in the table below (in thousands):

The effective tax rate was a provision of 4.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a provision of 6.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The effective tax rate change from the prior year quarter compared to the current year quarter is due to an increase in the valuation allowance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations
We use supplemental non-GAAP financial measures which are derived from the condensed consolidated financial information including adjusted net income (loss); adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”); adjusted EBIT (defined below); adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”) and free cash flow to supplement financial information presented on a GAAP basis.
We define adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share and adjusted EBIT to exclude the following items: costs associated with our past integration and transformation program, costs associated with the Operating Group Reorganization, non-routine legal costs and settlements, restructuring charges, certain severance charges, goodwill and other impairment charges and certain other items that we believe are not indicative of core operating activities. Consolidated adjusted EBIT, as defined by us, excludes the costs excluded from adjusted net income (loss) as well as income tax expense (benefit), interest charges, foreign currency (gain) loss, and items of other (income) expense. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA further excludes from consolidated adjusted EBIT depreciation, amortization and non-cash share-based compensation, and other non-cash costs. Segment adjusted EBIT is equal to segment operating income (loss) excluding costs associated with our past integration and transformation program, costs associated with the Operating Group Reorganization, non-routine legal costs and settlements, restructuring charges, certain severance charges, goodwill and other impairment charges and certain other items as determined by management. Segment adjusted EBITDA further excludes from segment adjusted EBIT depreciation, amortization, and non-cash share-based compensation costs. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities minus capital expenditures.
Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of our financial position and results of operations. In particular, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share, consolidated adjusted EBIT, and consolidated adjusted EBITDA are meaningful measures of performance which are commonly used by industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies to analyze operating performance in our industry, perform analytical comparisons, benchmark performance between periods, and measure our performance against externally communicated targets. Our segment adjusted EBIT and segment adjusted EBITDA is also used as a basis for the Chief Operating Decision Maker to evaluate the performance of our reportable segments. Free cash flow is used by our management and investors to analyze our ability to service and repay debt and return value directly to stakeholders.
Non-GAAP measures have important limitations as analytical tools, because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect net earnings and operating income. These measures should not be considered substitutes for their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis. Further, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies who may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. The liquidity measure of free cash flow does not represent a precise calculation of residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. Reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure are presented below.
The following tables set forth the reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss), EBIT and EBITDA from our continuing operations to their most comparable GAAP financial measurements:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General. Financing for our operations consists primarily of our ABL Credit Facility, Term Loan and our Subordinated Term Loan, and Notes (refer to Note - 12 Debt , for additional details). Our principal uses of cash are for working capital needs, capital expenditures and operations. We have suffered recurring operating losses related to unfavorable market conditions, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, cost inflation related to supply chain disruptions and an increases in interest rates. In response to the above, we evaluated the Company’s current liquidity resources within one year after the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements and determined there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern (as further described in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices ). Management is evaluating strategic alternatives, including potential asset sales, and potential transactions to reduce the principal amount or extend the maturity of the Notes, to address our near-term liquidity needs; and we have taken definitive actions to reduce costs, improve operations, profitability, and liquidity to position the Company for improved cash flow generation from operations.
Our ability to maintain compliance with the financial covenants contained in the ABL Credit Facility, Term Loan Credit Agreement, and Subordinated Term Loan Credit Agreement is dependent upon our future operating performance and future financial condition, both of which are subject to various risks and uncertainties. The effects of the current economic environment, including the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing interest rates, inflationary pressures, the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and related economic repercussions could have a significant adverse effect on our financial position and business condition, as well as our clients and suppliers. Additionally, these events may, among other factors, impact our ability to generate cash flows from operations, access the capital markets on acceptable terms or at all, and affect our future need or ability to borrow under our ABL Credit Facility. In addition to our current sources of funding our business, the effects of such events may impact our liquidity or our need to revise our allocation or sources of capital, implement further cost reduction measures and/or change our business strategy.
Consolidated cash and cash equivalents were $56.4 million at September 30, 2022, of which $25.7 million was restricted mainly as collateral for outstanding letters of credit. Additionally, we had approximately $20.5 million in undrawn availability under our various credit facilities at September 30, 2022. Our gross debt and finance obligations were $511.2 million, of which $506.4 million was classified as current at September 30, 2022, compared to gross debt of $405.9 million at December 31, 2021.
Recently Announced Sale. On November 1, 2022, we completed the sale of our Quest Integrity business for cash proceeds of approximately $279 million, reflecting certain estimated post-closing adjustments. The net proceeds to us (after payment of transaction related expenses and certain other fees) were approximately $270 million. We used approximately $238 million of the proceeds to pay down term debt and to pay certain fees associated with that repayment and related accrued interest, with the remainder reserved for general corporate purposes. As of November 4, 2022, we had consolidated cash and cash equivalents of $76.0 million, of which $6.8 million was restricted mainly as collateral for outstanding letters of credit and approximately $13.7 million of undrawn availability under its various credit facilities, resulting in total liquidity of $82.9 million. Refer to Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 2 - Discontinued Operations for additional details regarding this transaction.
Cash and cash equivalents . Our cash and cash equivalents associated with continuing operations at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaled $56.4 million and $55.2 million, respectively, consisting of $30.7 million of unrestricted cash on hand and $25.7 million of restricted cash, pledged as cash collateral for letters of credit and other obligations at September 30, 2022 and $51.1 million of unrestricted cash on hand and $4.1 million of restricted cash for interest due on Atlantic Park Term Loan at December 31, 2021. Additionally, $12.9 million a nd $14.2 million o f the $56.4 million and $55.2 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents at September 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was in foreign accounts, primarily in the Europe, Canada and Australia, including $1.6 million a nd $2.4 millio n, respectively, of cash located in countries where currency restrictions exist.

Cash flows attributable to our operating activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $46.4 million. Our net cash used in operating activities generally reflects the cash effects of transactions and other events used in the determination of net loss, which totaled $76.9 million . The decline in cash generated from operations was driven by the net loss for the period, $35.3 million decline in working capital, a gain on disposal of assets of $4.3 million, deferred income taxes of $0.4 million, partially offset by amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discount and write off of deferred loan costs of $25.7 million, adjustments to depreciation and amortization of $28.6 million, and PIK Interest of $15.5 million, resulted in negative operating cash flow.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used by operating activities was $35.9 million. Our net cash used in operating activities generally reflects the cash effects of transactions and other events used in the determination of net loss, which totaled $143.0 million for the period. Overall, the decline in cash generated from operations was driven primarily by the impacts of inclement weather and COVID-19 on our operations which generated reduced revenue and receipts during the period. Partially offsetting the net loss for the period were adjustments of $31.4 million for depreciation and amortization and $5.6 million in non-cash compensation cost.
Cash flows attributable to our investing activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $13.8 million, consisting primarily of capital expenditures, partially offset by $7.2 million of cash proceeds from asset sales.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $12.2 million, primarily for capital expenditures.
Cash flows attributable to our financing activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities was $63.3 million consisting primarily of net borrowings under our ABL Credit Facility of $67.8 million and issuance of common stock amounting to $9.7 million cash proceeds from the Equity Issuance partially offset by $13.6 million in payments of debt issuance costs.
On February 11, 2022 we completed a capital structure refinancing, including the ABL Credit Facility which is a new $165.0 million credit facility, consisting of a $130.0 million revolving facility and a $35.0 million delayed draw term loan, plus an incremental $10.0 million of unsecured funding, and an additional $10.0 million equity investment.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $41.7 million consisting primarily of net borrowings under our Citi Credit Agreement of $46.3 million partially offset by $2.3 million in payments of debt issuance costs.
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash was a negative $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. The impact of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents is primarily attributable to fluctuations in U.S. Dollar exchange rates against the Canadian Dollar, the Euro, the British Pound, the Australian Dollar and Mexican Peso.
Capital Resources. We establish a capital budget at the beginning of each calendar year and review it during the course of the year. Our capital budgets are based upon our estimate of internally generated sources of cash including from asset sales, as well as cash on hand and the available borrowing capacity under our ABL and other Credit Facilities. We expect to finance our 2022 capital budget with cash flows from operations, cash on hand, proceeds from asset sales, and our credit facility. Actual capital expenditure levels may vary significantly due to many factors, including industry conditions; the prices and availability of goods and services; and the extent to which non-strategic assets are sold.

Table of Contents
We continuously monitor our liquidity needs, coordinate our capital expenditure program with our expected cash flows and projected debt-repayment schedule, and evaluate our available alternative sources of liquidity, including accessing debt and equity capital markets in light of current and expected economic conditions. As discussed above, we will require additional financing to fund our operations for the next 12 months and beyond. However, we believe that our liquidity position and ability to generate cash flows from our operations will be adequate to fund 2022 operations. See Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices for further information.
Contractual Obligations. We have various contractual obligations in the normal course of our operations. For further information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Contractual Obligations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no material changes to the contractual obligation disclosure since year-end 2021, see Note 12 - Debt for additional details regarding amendments to our debt agreements that were executed during the first quarter of 2022.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
From time-to-time, we enter into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that can give rise to material off-balance sheet obligations. As of September 30, 2022, the material off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that we have entered into include $8.9 million in outstanding letters of credit. See Note 12 - Debt for additional details.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
A discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except for the item referenced below, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
ASU 2020-06 Adoption. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity . The ASU simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in ASC 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options, for convertible instruments. On January 1, 2022, we adopted the ASU using the modified retrospective method. We recognized a cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU as an adjustment to the January 1, 2022 opening balance of accumulated deficit. The prior period condensed consolidated financial statements have not been retrospectively adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. Refer to Note 12 - Debt , for additional details.
New Accounting Principles
For information about newly adopted accounting principles as well as information about new accounting principles pending adoption, see Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
