TETRA Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
We are an industrial and oil and gas products and services company operating on six continents, focused on bromine-based completion fluids, calcium chloride, water management solutions, frac flowback and production well testing services. We were incorporated in Delaware in 1981. We are composed of two segments – Completion Fluids & Products Division and Water & Flowback Services Division. Unless the context requires otherwise, when we refer to “we,” “us,” and “our,” we are describing TETRA Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
Presentation
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Operating results for the period ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
The accompanying unaudited 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K , which we filed with the SEC on March 5, 2021.
Significant Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K . There have been no significant changes in our accounting policies or the application thereof during the third quarter of 2021.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of 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 disclose contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, and impairments during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material.
Reclassifications
Certain previously reported financial information has been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. For a discussion of the reclassification of the financial presentation of our former Compression Division as discontinued operations, see Note 2 - “Discontinued Operations”. Other than the discontinued operations presentation, the impact of reclassifications was not significant to the prior year's overall presentation. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relate solely to continuing operations and exclude all discontinued operations.
Impairments and Other Charges
Impairments of long-lived assets, including identified intangible assets, are determined periodically when indicators of impairment are present. If such indicators are present, the determination of the amount of impairment is based on our judgment as to the future undiscounted operating cash flows to be generated from the relevant assets throughout their remaining estimated useful lives. If these undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying
8
Table of Contents
amount of the related assets, an impairment is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over fair value. Fair value of intangible assets is generally determined using the discounted present value of future cash flows using discount rates commensurate with the risks inherent with the specific assets. Assets held for disposal are recorded at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value less estimated selling costs. During the nine months ended 2021, we recorded an impairment charge of $ 0.4 million related to idle equipment in our Canada office within our Water & Flowback Services Division. There were no significant impairments associated with continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Foreign Currency Translation
We have designated the Euro, the British pound, the Canadian dollar, the Brazilian real, and the Mexican peso as the functional currencies for our operations in Finland and Sweden, the United Kingdom, Canada, Brazil, and certain of our operations in Mexico, respectively. During 2021, we determined our business operations in Norway were primarily operating using the United States dollar. Effective July 1, 2021, the functional currency of our operations in Norway was changed from the Norwegian krone to the United States dollar. The United States dollar is also the designated functional currency for all of our other non-U.S. operations. The cumulative translation effects of translating the applicable accounts from the functional currencies into the United States dollar at current exchange rates are included as a separate component of equity. Foreign currency exchange (gains) and losses are included in other (income) expense, net and totaled $( 0.1 ) million and $( 1.1 ) million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $ 1.2 million and $ 2.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.
Fair Value Measurements
We utilize fair value measurements to account for certain items and account balances within our consolidated financial statements. Fair value measurements are utilized on a recurring basis in the determination of the carrying values of certain assets, including our interest in Standard Lithium Ltd. (“Standard Lithium”) and our retained interest in CSI Compressco and liabilities, including the liabilities for the warrants to purchase 11.2 million shares of our common stock (the “Warrants”). See Note 8 - “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion. Fair value measurements are also utilized on a nonrecurring basis in certain circumstances, including the impairment of long-lived assets (a Level 3 fair value measurement).

Supplemental cash flow information from continuing and discontinued operations is as follows:

New Accounting Pronouncements
Standards adopted in 2021
In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions related to intraperiod tax allocation, interim period income tax calculation methodology, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. It also simplifies certain aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and clarifies the accounting for transactions that results in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. On January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU 2019-12. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Standards not yet adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in the more timely recognition of losses on financial instruments not accounted for at fair value through net income. The provisions require credit impairments to be measured over the contractual life of an asset and developed with consideration for past events, current conditions, and forecasts of future economic information. Credit impairment will be accounted for as an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis at each reporting date. We are continuing to work through our implementation plan which includes evaluating the impact on our allowance for doubtful accounts methodology, identifying new reporting requirements, and implementing changes to business processes, systems, and controls to support adoption of the standard. Upon adoption, the allowance for doubtful accounts is expected to increase with an offsetting adjustment to retained earnings. Updates at each reporting date after initial adoption will be recorded through selling, general, and administrative expense. ASU 2016-13 will become effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. We continue to assess the potential effects of these changes to our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. Entities may elect to apply the amendments for contract modifications made on or before December 31, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, our asset-based credit agreement and term credit agreement were amended to allow replacement of LIBOR with another benchmark rate, such as the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) in the event that LIBOR cannot be determined or does not fairly reflect the cost to our lenders of funding our loans. If LIBOR is not available, we cannot predict what alternative index would be negotiated with our lenders. We will assess the impact of adopting ASU 2020-04 on our consolidated financial statements if or when our contracts are modified to eliminate references to LIBOR.

On January 29, 2021, we entered into the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Spartan Energy Partners, LP (“Spartan”) pursuant to which we sold the general partner of CSI Compressco, including the IDRs in CSI Compressco and approximately 23.1 % of the outstanding limited partner interests in CSI Compressco, in exchange for the combination of $ 13.4 million in cash paid at closing, $ 0.5 million in cash paid on the six-month anniversary of closing and $ 3.1 million in contingent consideration in the form of cash and/or CSI Compressco common units if CSI Compressco achieves certain financial targets on or before December 31, 2022. Throughout this Quarterly Report, we refer to the transaction with Spartan as the “GP Sale.” As a result of these transactions, we no longer consolidate CSI Compressco as of January 29, 2021. We recognized a primarily non-cash accounting gain of $ 120.6 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 related to the GP Sale. The gain is included in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes in our consolidated statement of operations. We will also continue to provide back-office support to CSI Compressco under a Transition Services Agreement for up to one year until CSI Compressco has completed a full separation from our back-office support functions. Our interest in CSI Compressco and the general partner represented substantially all of our Compression Division.

In addition, on March 1, 2018, we closed a series of related transactions that resulted in the disposition of our Offshore Division, consisting of our Offshore Services and Maritech segments. Our former Compression and Offshore Divisions are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Our consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations report discontinued operations separate from continuing operations. Our consolidated statements of comprehensive income, statements of equity and statements of cash flows combine continuing and discontinued operations. Our current-year consolidated statement of operations, statement of comprehensive income, statement of equity and statement of cash flows include CSI Compressco activity for January 1 through January 29. Our consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 included $ 3.0 million and $ 10.8 million, respectively, of capital expenditures related to our former Compression division, as well as $ 337.5 million of proceeds from long-term debt, $ 341.2 million of payments of long-term debt, $ 21.7 million from proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment, and $ 2.0 million from amortization of deferred financing discounts, costs and gains for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020. Our current-year results do not include CSI Compressco depreciation or amortization as the assets were considered held for sale. A summary of financial information related to our discontinued operations is as follows:

NOTE 3 – REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Our contract asset balances, primarily associated with customer documentation requirements, were $ 16.9 million and $ 12.8 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Contract assets, along with billed trade accounts receivable, are included in trade accounts receivable in our consolidated balance sheets.
Unearned income includes amounts in which the Company was contractually allowed to invoice prior to satisfying the associated performance obligations. Unearned income balances were $ 1.4 million and $ 2.7 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and vary based on the timing of invoicing and performance obligations being met. Revenues recognized during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 deferred as of the end of the preceding year were not significant. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, contract costs were not significant.
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into Product Sales and Services within each segment, as noted in our two reportable segments in Note 10. In addition, we disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers by geography based on the following table below.

NOTE 5 – INVESTMENTS
Following the closing of the GP Sale, we continue to own approximately 10.9 % of the outstanding CSI Compressco common units. In addition, we are party to agreements in which Standard Lithium has the right to explore, produce and extract lithium in our Arkansas leases as well as additional potential resources in the Mojave region of California. The Company receives cash and stock of Standard Lithium (NYSE:SLI) under the terms of the arrangements. The cash and stock component of consideration received is initially recorded as unearned income based on the quoted market price at the time the stock is received, then recognized in income over the contract term. See Note 8 - “Fair Value Measurements” for further information.
Our investments as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, consist of the following:

On July 30, 2021, we entered into an amendment to our asset-based credit agreement (“ABL Credit Agreement’) that, among other things, extended the term of the credit facility to May 31, 2025 and revised our commitment to $ 80.0 million, with a $ 20.0 million accordion. The amendment increased the availability by adding the value of accrued Unites States receivables, increased the forward rates on accounts receivable for investment grade customers and incorporated a new $ 15.0 million sub-facility subject to a borrowing base consisting of certain trade receivables and inventory in the United Kingdom.
As of September 30, 2021, we had no outstanding balance and $ 6.2 million in letters of credit against our “ABL Credit Agreement. Because there was no outstanding balance on this ABL Credit Agreement, associated deferred financing costs of $ 1.7 million as of September 30, 2021, were classified as other long-term assets on the

Table of Contents
accompanying consolidated balance sheet. As of September 30, 2021, subject to compliance with the covenants, borrowing base, and other provisions of the ABL Credit Agreement that may limit borrowings, we had an availability of $ 48.2 million under this agreement.
Our credit agreements contain certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability to pay dividends or other restricted payments. As of September 30, 2021, we are in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreements. Our term credit agreement requires us to offer to prepay a percentage of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the term credit agreement) within five business days of filing our Annual Report. The minimum amount of $ 8.2 million that we would have been required to offer to prepay pursuant to this obligation for the year ending December 31, 2021 was paid on July 30, 2021 in connection with the amendment of our ABL Credit Agreement.
NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
We are named defendants in several lawsuits and respondents in certain governmental proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of lawsuits or other proceedings against us cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not consider it reasonably possible that a loss resulting from such lawsuits or other proceedings in excess of any amounts accrued has been incurred that is expected to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.
There have been no material developments in our legal proceedings during the quarter ended September 30, 2021. For a discussion of our legal proceedings, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Investment
In May 2021, we signed a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with CarbonFree Chemicals Holdings, LLC (“CarbonFree”), a carbon capture company with patented technologies that capture CO 2 and mineralize emissions to make commercial, carbon-negative chemicals. During the one-year MOU period, both Companies will work towards a definitive agreement that might include investments by TETRA into CarbonFree, a joint venture, or other commercial arrangements. On July 23, 2021, we entered into a commitment to invest $ 5.0 million in a convertible note to be issued by CarbonFree. Our investment in CarbonFree is contingent on certain conditions being attained by CarbonFree.
NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Financial Instruments
Investments
Our retained investment in CSI Compressco and our investment in Standard Lithium are recorded based on the quoted market stock price in active markets (a Level 1 fair value measurement). The stock component of consideration received for our arrangement with Standard Lithium is initially recorded as unearned income based on the quoted market price at the time the stock is received, then recognized in income over the contract term. The unearned income associated with the stock component of this agreement is not significant as of September 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020. Changes in the value of stock are recorded in other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations.
Warrants
The Warrants are valued using a Black Scholes option valuation model that includes estimates of the volatility of the Warrants (a Level 3 fair value measurement). The Warrants are accounted for as a derivative liability and increases (or decreases) in the fair value of the Warrants are generally associated with increases (or decreases) in the trading price of our common stock, increases in the volatility of our common stock price and decreases in time remaining until expiration of the Warrants, resulting in adjustments to earnings for the associated valuation losses (gains), and resulting in future volatility of our earnings during the period the Warrants are
15
Table of Contents
outstanding. The estimated volatility as of September 30, 2021 was 60 %. The outstanding Warrants expire by December 31, 2021.
Recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements by valuation hierarchy as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, are as follows:
