ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is provided as a supplement to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes to help provide an understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition, and results of operations. The following should be read in conjunction with Item 1 “Business,” Item 1A “Risk Factors,” Item 2 “Properties,” and Item 8 “Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such forward-looking statements include those that express plans, anticipation, intent, contingency, goals, targets or future development and/or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. See Item 1 at the beginning of this Annual Report.

General Development of Business

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 three segments: Inspection and Heat Treating (“IHT”), Mechanical Services (“MS”) and Quest Integrity. Through the capabilities and resources in these three 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 escalating 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 non-destructive testing (“NDT”) services primarily for the process, pipeline and power sectors, pipeline integrity management services, and field heat treating services, 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.

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.

Quest Integrity provides integrity and reliability management solutions for the process, pipeline and power sectors. These solutions encompass three 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; (2) advanced engineering and condition assessment services through a multi-disciplined engineering team and related lab support; and (3) advanced digital imaging including remote digital video imaging, laser scanning and laser profilometry-enabled reformer care services.

We market our services to companies in a diverse array of heavy industries, which include:

•Energy (refining, power, renewables, nuclear and liquefied natural gas);

•Manufacturing and Process (chemical, petrochemical, pulp and paper industries, manufacturing, automotive and mining);

23

Table of Contents

•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 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 is included in our Quest Integrity segment, will focus on expanding mechanical and pipeline integrity, risk-based inspection, remote visual inspection, and digital platform. The AID Group will also optimize our research and development activities, including product and technology development. These changes had no effect on our reportable segments.

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. “Risk Factors” included in this report 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. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and the rest of the world. Over the past year, the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions created significant volatility and uncertainty in domestic and international markets including in the markets in which we operate and, as a result, certain clients have responded with capital spending budget cuts, cost cutting measures, personnel layoffs, limited facility access, and facility closures among other actions.

Though the impact of COVID-19 and the decline in crude oil prices on our operations has varied by geographic conditions, the applicable government mandates have adversely affected our workforce and operations, as well as the operations of our clients, suppliers and contractors. The ultimate duration and impact on our global operations remains unclear. We expect that our results of operations in future periods may continue to be adversely impacted due to the factors noted above. To successfully navigate through this unprecedented period, we have continued to focus on the following key priorities:

• the safety of our employees and business continuity;

• decisive and aggressive actions taken to reduce costs, preserve capacity and manage margins to align our business with the near-term decrease in demand for our services; and

• our end market revenue diversification strategy.

To respond to the economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the drop in oil prices, we initiated a cost reduction and efficiency program during the second quarter of 2020. All named executive officers have voluntarily taken temporary salary reductions ranging from 15% to 20% of their base salary. In addition, we instituted a reduction for certain other salaried employees, at lower percentages, and suspended our voluntary match under the executive deferred compensation retirement plan and our 401(k) plan. Further, our board of directors voluntarily agreed to a 20% reduction of their cash compensation. These reductions continue into 2021.

Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), we are qualified to defer the employer portion of social security taxes incurred through the end of calendar 2020. As of December 31, 2020, we have deferred employer payroll taxes of $14.2 million with approximately half of the deferral due in each of 2021 and 2022. We may defer additional future employer payroll taxes under the CARES Act. Additionally, other governments in jurisdictions where we operate passed legislation to provide employers with relief programs, which include wage subsidy grants, deferral of certain payroll related expenses and tax payments and other benefits. We elected to treat qualified government subsidies from Canada and other governments as offsets to the related expenses. As a result, we recognized $9.9 million and $2.4 million as a reduction to operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, we also deferred certain payroll related expenses and tax payments of $4.6 million under other foreign government programs which will be due in 2021 and 2022.

Goodwill Impairment. As discussed in Note 7 of the consolidated financial statements further below, we recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge during the three months ended March 31, 2020 of $191.8 million for the IHT operating segment. These charges were a result of an interim goodwill impairment test that was triggered as a result of certain impairment indicators that were present during the quarter, primarily the decline in operating results experienced during the first quarter of 2020 due to COVID-19, lower oil prices and related impacts on the IHT operating segment.

Revenues. Total revenues declined $310.8 million or 26.7% from the same period in the prior year. Excluding the unfavorable impact of $2.3 million due to foreign currency exchange rate changes, total revenues decreased by $308.5 million, IHT revenues decreased by $137.9 million, MS revenues decreased by $141.5 million and Quest Integrity revenues decreased by $29.1 million. Decreased activity levels in IHT, MS and Quest Integrity were primarily due to volumes being negatively impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19 and the oversupplied oil market causing certain clients to temporarily close facilities and/or curtail operations, resulting in the postponement of client projects and lower demand for our services. Within the oil and gas industry, we expect refining utilization rates to gradually recover through 2021. Without the COVID-19 pandemic effects, we would typically benefit for a period of 12 to 18 months following a refining utilization rate drop, however, current market dynamics have delayed the demand growth for our products and services. The unfavorable impacts of foreign exchange rate changes are primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the foreign currencies to which we have exposure during this period.

Operating loss. Overall operating loss was $217.4 million, compared to an operating loss of $2.1 million in the prior year. The increase in operating loss was primarily attributable to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $191.8 million during the first quarter of 2020, which was triggered by the existence of impairment indicators, including the decline in our forecasts as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related decline in market conditions in our IHT operating segment.

Twelve Months EndedDecember 31, Increase(Decrease)

Operating income (loss), excluding non-core expenses:

Excluding the impact of non-core expenses, the overall decrease in operating income is primarily attributable to our MS and Quest Integrity segments, which experienced a decrease in operating income of $26.4 million and $11.8 million, respectively. The lower operating income in MS and Quest Integrity reflects lower activity levels due to a decline in market conditions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the decline in oil prices. These movements were partially offset by a decrease in corporate and shared support service expenses of $10.5 million, which was driven primarily by lower payroll and noncash compensation expenses.

Other (income) expense, net. Other expense, net increased $1.8 million, or 252%, from the same period in the prior year, primarily from foreign currency transaction losses in the current year compared to the prior year. Foreign currency transaction losses in the current year period reflect the effects of fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar relative to the foreign currencies to which we have exposure. Other expense, net also include certain components of our net periodic pension cost (credit).

Loss on debt extinguishment and modification. In December 2020, we entered into lending arrangements, repaid all amounts outstanding under our prior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) and retired $136.9 million par value of our 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”). In connection with these transactions, we recognized a loss of $2.2 million, comprised of approximately $4.4 million in unamortized debt issuance costs on the Credit Facility and expenses associated with

27

Table of Contents

the extinguishment of the Notes, partially offset by a $2.2 million gain on extinguishment of the Notes. See further discussion of our debt in Note 10. Long-term debt, derivatives and letters of credit to our consolidated financial statements included in this report. The write-off of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 was associated with a reduction in capacity of the revolving portion of the Credit Facility in July 2019.

Taxes. The benefit for income tax was $14.7 million on the pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $251.9 million in the current year compared to the benefit for income tax of $0.4 million on pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $32.9 million in the prior year. The effective tax rate was a benefit of 5.8% for the year ended December 31, 2020 and a benefit of 1.3% for the year ended December 31, 2019.The higher effective rate benefit in 2020 is primarily attributable to the tax benefit related to the goodwill impairment loss taken during the year, a portion of which is not deductible for tax purposes, and tax benefits recorded as a result of certain provisions within the CARES Act, enacted on March 27, 2020. The rate was also positively impacted by a decrease in valuation allowance on the expected realizability of the Company’s deferred tax assets for net operating loss carryforwards in certain foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates. These benefits were offset by an increase in valuation allowance on the expected realizability of the Company’s deferred tax assets for federal and state tax net operating loss carryforwards. The CARES Act was enacted as a stimulus package to mitigate the negative financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy. A provision in the CARES Act allows for the carryback of net operating losses generated in certain tax years, which were previously only allowed to be carried forward, to recover income taxes paid at a higher statutory tax rate than the rate under current law. A tax benefit in the amount of $7.3 million was recorded during the year related to the carryback of net operating losses.

Year Ended December 31, 2019 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2018

The following table sets forth the components of revenue and operating income (loss) from our operations for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):

Twelve Months EndedDecember 31, Increase(Decrease)

Revenues by business segment:

Operating income (loss):

Revenues. Total revenues declined $83.6 million or 6.7% from the same period in the prior year. Excluding the unfavorable impact of $11.8 million due to foreign currency exchange rate changes, total revenues decreased by $71.8 million, IHT revenues decreased by $101.7 million, MS revenues increased by $10.9 million and Quest Integrity revenues increased by $19.0 million. The unfavorable impacts of foreign exchange rate changes are primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro, the British Pound, the Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar. Decreased activity levels in IHT were associated with volume declines due to regional competitive pressures along the U.S. Gulf Coast, deliberate market share loss due to a continued focus on pricing discipline, Canadian end-market challenges and some weather related impacts. Also contributing to the decrease was the loss of revenue from certain under-performing businesses in IHT that closed down in late 2018. For MS, revenue increased primarily due to higher on-stream services. Within Quest Integrity, the increase in revenue is primarily the result of higher demand for Quest Integrity’s proprietary services and tools as well as growth from certain geographic expansion.

Operating income (loss). Overall operating loss was $2.1 million, compared to an operating loss of $39.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2018. The overall decrease in operating loss is primarily attributable to the MS segment, which experienced an increase in operating income of $49.1 million. Additionally, operating income for Quest Integrity increased by

28

Table of Contents

$8.6 million. Partially offsetting these improvements was the decrease in operating income in IHT of $13.2 million and the increase in corporate and shared support service expenses of $7.6 million.

Operating income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2019 included net expenses totaling $23.3 million that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating activities, while the same period in the prior year included $33.9 million of such items, as detailed by segment in the table below (in thousands):

1Consists primarily of professional fees and other costs for assessment of corporate and support cost structures, acquired business integration, natural disaster costs and transition/severance costs associated with certain executive leadership changes. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, includes $12.3 million and $15.5 million, respectively, associated with the OneTEAM program (exclusive of restructuring costs).

2For the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, primarily relates to accrued costs due to resolutions of certain legal matters. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, relates to intellectual property legal defense costs associated with Quest Integrity.

3Relates to restructuring costs incurred associated with the OneTEAM program. See Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Excluding the impact of these identified items in both periods, operating loss changed favorably by $26.2 million, consisting of increased operating income in MS and Quest Integrity of $45.2 million and $8.3 million, respectively, partially offset by decreased operating income in IHT of $17.1 million and an increase in corporate and shared support services expenses of $10.2 million. The higher operating income in MS is primarily due to improvements in project execution pricing and cost. Additionally, MS incurred $12.4 million of amortization expense in 2018 due to the accelerated amortization of the Furmanite trade name intangible asset. Management determined that, as a result of initiatives to consolidate branding, the useful life of Furmanite trade name intangible asset was not expected to extend beyond December 31, 2018. We accounted for the change in useful life prospectively effective January 1, 2018 and amortized the remaining balance over 2018, which resulted in the incremental amortization expense in 2018. Within Quest Integrity, the higher operating income reflects both higher activity levels and a favorable project mix. The lower operating income in IHT reflects lower activity levels due to a decline in market conditions. The operating loss increase in corporate and shared support services was driven by corporate cost increases in technology expenses, labor costs and conclusion of certain legal settlements offset by lower non-cash compensation costs.

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased from $30.9 million in the prior year to $29.7 million in the current year. The decrease is primarily due to a lower overall debt balances outstanding.

Loss on debt extinguishment and modification. The write-off of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 was associated with a reduction in capacity of the revolving portion of the Credit Facility in July 2019.

Loss on convertible debt embedded derivative. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, we recorded a loss of $24.8 million associated with the increase in fair value of our convertible debt embedded derivative liability. The loss recognized during this period is primarily attributable to the increase in our stock price during the period. As discussed further in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, in accordance with ASC 815-15, we recorded a loss to adjust the embedded derivative liability to its fair value as of May 17, 2018 and then reclassified the balance of $45.4 million to stockholders’ equity in the second quarter of 2018. As a result of this reclassification, the embedded derivative liability is no longer marked to fair value each period.

Table of Contents

Other (income) expense, net. Non-operating results include foreign currency transaction losses of $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to foreign currency transaction losses of $1.7 million in the same period last year. The foreign currency transaction losses in both periods reflect the effects of fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar relative to the currencies to which we have exposure, including but not limited to, the Brazilian Real, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Euro, Australian Dollar, New Zealand Dollar, Norwegian Kroner, Malaysian Ringgit, Mexican Peso and Singapore Dollar. Non-operating results also include certain components of our net periodic pension cost (credit).

Taxes. The benefit for income tax was $0.4 million on the pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $32.9 million in the current year compared to the benefit for income tax of $31.1 million on pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $94.2 million in the prior year. The effective tax rate was a benefit of 1.3% for the year ended December 31, 2019 and a benefit of 33.0% for the year ended December 31, 2018. The lower effective rate benefit in 2019 is primarily attributable to an increase in valuation allowance on the expected realizability of our deferred tax assets for federal, foreign and state tax net operating loss carryforwards.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations

We use supplemental non-GAAP financial measures which are derived from the 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 OneTEAM program, non-routine legal costs and settlements, restructuring charges, certain severance charges, goodwill impairment charges, loss on debt extinguishment and certain other items that we believe are not indicative of core operating activities. Beginning in the third quarter of 2020, we have modified our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures to reconcile net income (loss) to consolidated adjusted EBIT and EBITDA. 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 costs. Segment adjusted EBIT is equal to segment operating income (loss) excluding costs associated with our OneTEAM program, non-routine legal costs and settlements, restructuring charges, goodwill 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. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as consolidated adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. 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 to their most comparable GAAP financial measurements:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financing for our operations consists primarily of our ABL Facility (defined below) and cash flows attributable to our operations, which we believe are sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash requirements for our existing operations for at least the next twelve months. Our long-term liquidity needs primarily relate to debt service requirements. From time to time, we may experience periods of weakness in the industries in which we operate, with activity levels below historical levels. These conditions, depending on their duration and severity, have the potential to adversely impact our operating cash flows. Since the oil and gas market downturn and outbreak of COVID-19 in the United States beginning in March 2020, we have maintained a continuous process of actively managing our strategy, operations and resources to changing market conditions. We have implemented workforce furloughs, reduced personnel compensation, reduced headcount, eliminated all non-essential costs, lowered capital expenditure budgets by more than 30% and reviewed all business operations within the evolving market conditions amongst other initiatives. Additionally, when the COVID-19 pandemic and oil and gas industry downturn depressed commodity prices beginning in March 2020, our active management actions helped ensure adequate available liquidity resources for the foreseeable future. We intend to continue managing the business to the new market realities to ensure our access to capital remains sufficient. We periodically explore alternative financing to improve our balance sheet and liquidity or in the event that existing liquidity sources are no longer sufficient for our capital requirements. Any such financing could be on substantially different and more onerous terms than those of our ABL Facility, including with respect to interest rates, financial and other covenants and required collateral, and could include an equity component, which would be dilutive to our shareholders. However, there can be no assurance that such financing would be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. From time to time, we may also seek to retire, repurchase or exchange our Notes in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions dependent upon market conditions, liquidity, and contractual obligations and other factors.

ABL Facility. On December 18, 2020, we entered into an asset-based credit agreement (the “ABL Facility”) led by Citibank, N.A., as agent, which provides for available borrowings up to $150 million. The ABL Facility matures and all outstanding amounts become due and payable on December 18, 2024. However, if our Notes, which mature on August 1, 2023, have an aggregate principal amount of $50 million or more outstanding 120 days prior to their maturity date (the “Trigger Date”), or if there are Notes in an aggregate principal amount of less than $50 million outstanding and we do not have sufficient availability of more than 20% under the ABL Facility on the Trigger Date, the ABL Facility will terminate on the Trigger Date. The ABL Facility includes a $50 million sublimit for letters of credit issuance and $35 million sublimit for swingline borrowings. Additionally, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining additional commitments, the ABL Facility may be increased by an amount not to exceed $50 million.

Our obligations under the ABL Facility are guaranteed by certain of our direct and indirect subsidiaries, as set forth in the ABL Facility agreement. The ABL Facility is secured on a first priority basis by, among other things, our accounts receivable, deposit accounts, securities accounts and inventory, including those of our direct and indirect subsidiary guarantors, and on a second priority basis by substantially all other assets of our direct and indirect subsidiary guarantors. Borrowing availability under the ABL Facility is based on a percentage of the value of accounts receivable and inventory, reduced for certain reserves.

Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon, at our option, an annual rate of either a base rate (“Base 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) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) Citibank, N.A.’s prime rate, and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Depending on the amount of average excess availability, the applicable margin is between 1.75% to 2.25% for Base Rate borrowings with a 1.75% Base Rate floor and between 2.75% and 3.25% for LIBOR rate borrowings with a 0.75% LIBOR rate floor. Interest is payable either (i) monthly for Base Rate borrowings or (ii) the last day of the interest period for LIBOR rate borrowings, as set forth in the ABL Facility agreement. The fee for undrawn amounts ranges from 0.375% to 0.5%, depending on usage and are 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, makes changes to the nature of our business, engage in mergers and acquisitions, incur, assume or permit to exist additional indebtedness and guarantees, create or permit to exist liens, pay dividends, issue equity instruments, make distribution or redeem or repurchase capital stock. In the event that our excess availability is less than the greater of (i) $15.0 million and (ii) 10.00% of the lesser of (1) the current borrowing base and (2) 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. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, an additional 2.0% interest maybe required on the outstanding loans under the ABL Facility.

At December 31, 2020, we had $24.6 million of cash on hand and approximately $59.5 million of available borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility. Direct and incremental costs associated with the issuance of the ABL Facility were approximately $3.3 million and were capitalized as debt issuance costs. These costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the ABL Facility.

Atlantic Park Term Loan. On December 18, 2020, we also entered into a credit agreement with Atlantic Park Strategic Capital Fund, L.P., as agent, and APSC Holdco II, L.P. (“APSC”), as lender, pursuant to which we borrowed a $250.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan was issued with a 3% original issuance discount (“OID”), such that total proceeds received were $242.5 million. The Term Loan matures, and all outstanding amounts become due and payable on December 18, 2026. However, certain conditions could result in an earlier maturity, including if the Notes have an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $50 million or more on the Trigger Date, in which case the Term Loan will terminate on the Trigger Date. As set forth in the Term Loan agreement, the Term Loan is secured by substantially all assets, other than those secured on a first lien basis by the ABL Facility, and we may increase the Term Loan by an amount not to exceed $100 million.

The Term Loan bears interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon, at our option, an annual rate of either a Base 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) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii), the prime rate as specified in the Term Loan agreement, and (iii) one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. The applicable margin is defined as a rate of 6.50% for Base rate borrowings with a 2.00% Base rate floor and 7.50% for LIBOR rate borrowings with a 1.00% LIBOR rate floor. Interest is payable either (i) monthly for Base rate borrowings or (ii) the last day of the interest period for LIBOR rate borrowings, as set forth in the Term Loan agreement. The loans under the Term Loan were issued with an original issue discount of 3.00%, and are, in whole or in part, prepayable any time and from time to time, at a prepayment premium (including a make whole during the first two years) specified in the Term Loan agreement (subject to certain exceptions), plus accrued and unpaid interest. The effective interest rate on the Term Loan at December 31, 2020 was 12.06%.

The Term Loan contains customary payment penalties, events of default and covenants, including but not limited to, covenants that restrict our ability to sell assets, make changes to the nature of our business, engage in mergers or acquisitions, incur additional indebtedness and guarantees, pay dividends, issue equity instruments and make distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock.

Commencing with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022, we are also required to maintain a net leverage ratio of less than or equal to 7.00 to 1.00, calculated quarterly on a trailing twelve-month basis. In addition, our capital expenditures may not exceed $33.0 million during any four fiscal quarter period, provided that this covenant will not apply if the total net leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00 at the end of the second and fourth quarter of each year.

Our ability to maintain compliance with the financial covenants 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 COVID-19 pandemic and the decline in oil and gas end markets 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 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. Although the COVID-19 pandemic and decline in the oil and gas end markets could have a broad range of effects on our liquidity sources, the effects will depend on future developments and cannot be predicted at this time.

In order to secure our casualty insurance programs, we are required to post letters of credit generally issued by a bank as collateral. A letter of credit commits the issuer to remit specified amounts to the holder, if the holder demonstrates that we failed to meet our obligations under the letter of credit. If this were to occur, we would be obligated to reimburse the issuer for any payments the issuer was required to remit to the holder of the letter of credit. We were contingently liable for outstanding stand-by letters of credit totaling $19.5 million at December 31, 2020 and $20.5 million at December 31, 2019. Outstanding letters of credit reduce amounts available under our ABL Facility and are considered as having been funded for purposes of calculating our financial covenants.

Use of Proceeds and Debt Issuance Costs.Direct and incremental costs associated with the issuance of the Term Loan were approximately $5.1 million and were capitalized as debt issuance costs. The debt issuance costs and the OID will be amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Term Loan.

We used a portion of the proceeds from the Term Loan, totaling approximately $128.8 million, to repay all borrowings, including accrued interest, outstanding under our Credit Facility. The Credit Facility, which was comprised of a revolver and term loan, was retired. Unamortized costs associated with the Credit Facility were $2.2 million at time of repayment and were expensed as loss on debt extinguishment.

We retired $136.9 million par value of our Notes for $135.5 million, excluding accrued interest, using proceeds from the Term Loan and borrowings under the ABL Facility. ASC 470 requires that the fair value of consideration transferred at settlement be allocated between the debt component and equity component of the Notes. To determine the fair value of the debt component of the Notes, we measured the fair value of a similar debt instrument without an associated conversion feature. The remaining fair value was allocated to the equity component of the Notes. The amounts allocated to the debt and equity components were in accordance with ASC 470 and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). We determined the fair value of the retired Notes was $121.8 million at extinguishment, with the remaining consideration of $13.7 million allocated to the equity component. The carrying amount of the retired Notes at extinguishment, net of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs was $124.0 million. Therefore, in connection with the retirement of the Notes, we recognized a gain on extinguishment of $2.2 million. Additionally, we incurred approximately $2.6 million in third-party fees in connection with the retirement of the Notes, of which $2.2 million were expensed as loss on debt extinguishment and $0.4 million recorded as equity reacquisition costs.

Convertible Senior Notes. On July 31, 2017, we issued $230.0 million principal amount of senior unsecured 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers (as defined in the Securities Act) pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. As discussed above, in December 2020, we retired $136.9 million par value of the Notes, and as of December 31, 2020, the principal amount of Notes outstanding was $93.1 million.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.0% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2018. The Notes mature on August 1, 2023 unless repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The Notes are convertible at an initial conversion rate of 46.0829 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $21.70 per share, which represents a conversion premium of 40% to the last reported sale price of $15.50 per share on the NYSE on July 25, 2017, the date the pricing of the Notes was completed. The conversion rate, and thus the conversion price, may be adjusted under certain circumstances as described in the indenture governing the Notes.

Holders may convert their Notes at their option prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding May 1, 2023, but only under the following circumstances:

•during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2017 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;

•during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each trading day of such measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on such trading day;

•if we call any or all of the Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or;

•upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described in the indenture governing the Notes.

On or after May 1, 2023 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may, at their option, convert their Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

As a result of the redemption and extinguishment of the Notes discussed above, the Notes are convertible into 4,291,705 shares of common stock. The Notes will be convertible into, subject to various conditions, cash or shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, in each case, at our election.

If holders elect to convert the Notes in connection with certain fundamental change transactions described in the indenture governing the Notes, we will, under certain circumstances described in the indenture governing the Notes, increase the conversion rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion.

We may not redeem the Notes prior to August 5, 2021. We will have the option to redeem all or any portion of the Notes on or after August 5, 2021, if certain conditions are met (including that our common stock is trading at or above 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. Net proceeds received from the Offering were approximately $222.3 million after deducting discounts, commissions and expenses.

Cost Savings and Business Improvement Initiatives. In the fourth quarter of 2017, we engaged outside consultants to assess all aspects of our business for improvement and cost saving opportunities, including centralizing support/shared services. In the first quarter of 2018, we completed the design phase of the project, known as OneTEAM, for our domestic operations, and entered into the deployment phase in the second quarter of 2018. We incurred $3.2 million and $12.3 million of expenses during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, primarily related to professional fees associated with the OneTEAM project. Additionally, we incurred $3.4 million and $1.7 million of severance-related costs during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to the elimination of certain employee positions in conjunction with the OneTEAM project. We expect the program-related expenses to continue through the first quarter of 2021.

In the third quarter of 2019, we began the design phase of OneTEAM for our international operations (“OneTEAM International”) which was deployed in the fourth quarter of 2019. We incurred various additional expenses associated with the execution of OneTEAM International through 2020 with funding provided by our operating cash flows and lending arrangements. During the first quarter of 2020, in response to COVID-19 and the decline in oil and gas end markets, we expanded and accelerated the operations and center led pillars from the OneTEAM program in order to implement permanent cost savings and identify further opportunities to optimize our organization (“OneTEAM Tune-Up”).

We achieved OneTEAM and other cost reduction savings of $110 million dollars of savings for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, up from our previous estimate of $85 million to $95 million of permanent and temporary cost savings.

Cash and cash equivalents. Our cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2020 totaled $24.6 million, of which $18.8 million was in foreign accounts, primarily in the U.K., Europe, Canada and Australia.

Cash flows attributable to our operating activities. For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $52.8 million. Although we incurred a net loss of $237.2 million, the goodwill impairment of $192 million, the effect of depreciation and amortization of $45.9 million, a decrease in working capital of $37.8 million, non-cash compensation cost of $6.3 million, amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discount of $8.8 million and deferred income taxes of $4.0 million primarily due to net tax refunds, resulted in positive operating cash flow.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $58.8 million. Although we incurred a net loss of $32.4 million, the effect of depreciation and amortization of $49.1 million, a decrease in working capital of $25.0 million, non-cash compensation cost of $10.1 million, amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discount of $7.7 million and deferred income taxes of $3.8 million primarily due to net tax refunds, resulted in positive operating cash flow.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, net cash used in operating activities was $41.9 million. Although we incurred a net loss of $63.1 million, the effect of depreciation and amortization of $64.9 million, a non-cash loss on our convertible debt embedded derivative of $24.8 million, a decrease in working capital of $19.0 million, non-cash compensation cost of $12.3 million and a provision for credit losses of $11.7 million, partially offset by deferred tax benefits of $31.7 million, resulted in positive operating cash flow.

Cash flows attributable to our investing activities. As a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, oil and gas industry outlook, and in order to preserve liquidity, at this time we are limiting capital spending to critical client projects that offer the highest rate of return. For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash used in investing activities was $18.3 million, consisting primarily of $20.0 million of capital expenditures.

For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, net cash used in investing activities was $28.1 million and $25.0 million, respectively, consisting primarily of $29.0 million and $27.2 million, respectively, of capital expenditures. Capital expenditures can vary depending upon specific client needs that may arise unexpectedly.

Cash flows attributable to our financing activities. For the year ended December 31, 2020, net cash used in financing activities was $23.5 million, consisting primarily of $126.6 million net debt repayments under the Credit Facility, $135.5

million for partial extinguishment of convertible debt, $35.0 million of payments under the ABL facility, $9.1 million of term loan debt issuance costs, $2.4 million of debt extinguishment costs, and $1.0 million in withholding tax payments related to share-based compensation, partially offset by net borrowings on our Term Loan of $242.5 million and net borrowings on our ABL Credit Facility of $44.0 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, net cash used in financing activities was $36.8 million, consisting primarily of $82.4 million net debt repayments under the revolving portion of our Credit Facility, $1.9 million in withholding tax payments related to share-based compensation, $0.4 million in contingent consideration payments and $1.5 million of Credit Facility debt issuance costs, partially offset by net borrowings on our Credit Facility term loan of $49.7 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, net cash used in financing activities was $23.0 million, consisting primarily of $19.7 million net debt repayments under the revolving portion of our Credit Facility, $1.4 million in withholding tax payments related to share-based compensation, $1.1 million in contingent consideration payments and $0.9 million of Credit Facility debt issuance costs.

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash was a positive impact of $1.4 million. The positive impact in the current year is primarily attributable to favorable fluctuations in U.S. Dollar exchange rates with the Canadian Dollar, the Euro, the British Pound the Australian Dollar and Mexican Peso.

For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash was a negative impact of $43.0 thousand and $2.1 million, respectively. The negative impact in both periods is primarily attributable to unfavorable fluctuations in U.S. Dollar exchange rates with the Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar, the British Pound, the Euro and the Brazilian Real.

Critical Accounting Policies

The process of preparing financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and judgments. It is possible that materially different amounts could be recorded if these estimates and judgments change or if actual results differ from these estimates and judgments. We believe that the following critical accounting policies comprise the more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from contracts with customers. The majority of our revenues are derived from providing services on a time and material basis and are short-term in nature. We account for revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Revenue is recognized as (or when) the performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control over a service or product to the customer. As most of our contracts contain only one performance obligation, the allocation of a contract’s transaction price to multiple performance obligations is generally not applicable. For our time and materials contracts, we are generally able to elect the right-to-invoice practical expedient, which permits us to recognize revenue in the amount to which we have a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date. For our fixed price contracts, we typically recognize revenue using the cost-to-cost method, which measures the extent of progress towards completion based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Under this method, revenue is recognized proportionately as costs are incurred. For contracts where control is transferred at a point in time, revenue is recognized at the time control of the asset is transferred to the customer, which is typically upon delivery and acceptance by the customer.

Certain contracts may also contain a combination of fixed and variable pricing elements. Generally, in contracts where the amount of consideration is variable, the amount is determinable each period based on our right to invoice the customer for services performed to date.

Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price of acquired businesses over the fair values attributed to underlying net tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets. We test goodwill each year on December 1 for impairment at a reporting unit level. Goodwill is also tested for impairment whenever an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. An assessment can be performed by first completing a qualitative assessment on none, some, or all of our reporting units. We can also bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test, and then resume the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. Qualitative indicators that may trigger the need for annual or interim quantitative impairment testing include, among other things, deterioration in macroeconomic conditions, declining financial performance, deterioration in the operational environment, or an expectation of selling or disposing of a portion of a reporting unit. Additionally, a significant change in business climate, a loss of a significant client, increased competition, a sustained decrease in share price, or a decrease in our market capitalization below book value may trigger the need for interim impairment testing of goodwill associated with one or more of our reporting units. If we believe that, as a result of our qualitative assessment, it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. The quantitative test involves comparing the fair value of each of our reporting units with its carrying amount, including goodwill.

During the first quarter of 2020, our assessment of qualitative indicators associated with our interim goodwill impairment test indicated an impairment existed as the carrying value of the IHT reporting unit exceeded its fair value. See Note 7 in the notes to consolidated financial statements for further details.

Income taxes. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, we determine deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities by using enacted rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of the change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

We recognize deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we would be unable to realize our deferred tax assets, we would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

38

Table of Contents

We establish reserves for uncertain tax positions when it is not more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon challenge. When facts and circumstances change, we adjust these reserves through our provision for income taxes. To the extent interest and penalties may be assessed by taxing authorities on any related underpayment of income tax, such amounts have been accrued and are classified as a component of income tax expense.

New Accounting Principles

For information about newly adopted accounting principles as well as information about new accounting principles pending adoption, see Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our market risk sensitive instruments and positions have been determined to be “other than trading.” We have operations in foreign countries with a functional currency that is not the U.S. Dollar. We are exposed to market risk, primarily related to foreign currency fluctuations related to these operations. Subsidiaries with asset and liability balances denominated in currencies other than their functional currency are remeasured in the preparation of their financial statements using a combination of current and historical exchange rates, with any resulting remeasurement adjustments included in net income (loss) for the period. Net foreign currency transaction losses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $2.8 million and relate primarily to fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar in relation to the Euro and the Brazilian Real.

In 2015, we initiated a foreign currency hedging program to mitigate the foreign currency risk in countries where we have significant assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. We utilize monthly foreign currency swap contracts to reduce exposures to changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to our largest exposures including, but not limited to the Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Brazilian Real, British Pound, Euro, Malaysian Ringgit and Mexican Peso. The impact from these swap contracts was not material as of, or for the years ended, December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

Translation adjustments for the assets and liability accounts are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency translation losses recognized in other comprehensive loss were $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Based on the year ended December 31, 2020, we had foreign currency-based revenues and operating loss of $242.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in all applicable foreign currencies would result in an annual change in revenues and operating loss of $24.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

The ABL Facility and Term Loan bear interest at variable market rates. If market interest rates increase, our interest expense and cash flows could be adversely impacted. Based on borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2020, an increase in market interest rates of 100 basis points would increase our interest expense and decrease our operating cash flows by approximately $2.2 million on an annual basis.

Our Notes bear interest at a fixed rate, but the fair value of the Notes is subject to fluctuations as market interest rates change. In addition, the fair value of the Notes is affected by changes in our stock price. As of December 31, 2020, the outstanding principal balance of the Notes was $93.1 million. The carrying value of the liability component of the Notes, net of the unamortized discount and issuance costs, was $84.5 million as of December 31, 2020, while the estimated fair value of the Notes was $91.9 million (inclusive of the fair value of the conversion option), which was determined based on the observed trading price of the Notes. See Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Notes.

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors

Team, Inc.:

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited Team, Inc. and subsidiaries’ (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated March 11, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors

Team, Inc.:

Opinion on the ConsolidatedFinancial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Team, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

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, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated March 11, 2021 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for leases as of January 1, 2019 due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842 (ASC 842), Leases.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. 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 audits 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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Realizability of deferred tax assets

As discussed in Notes 1 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had gross deferred tax assets of $90.5 million, of which $57.4 million related to net operating loss carryforwards, and a related valuation allowance of $53.4 million as of December 31, 2020. The assessment of the realizability of these deferred tax assets is based on the Company’s evaluation of available evidence to determine whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to allow for the realization of such deferred tax assets. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to an amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized.

42

Table of Contents

We identified the evaluation of the realizability of deferred tax assets as a critical audit matter. A high degree of auditor judgment was necessary to assess the evidence used by the Company to evaluate the realizability of deferred tax assets relating to the net operating loss carryforwards. Specifically, assessing the Company’s determination of the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, cumulative pre-tax losses and the relevance of such losses to forecasted future taxable income required subjective auditor judgment. In addition, specialized skills were required to evaluate the Company’s application of income tax regulations.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s income tax process. This included controls related to the application of income tax regulations and the Company’s consideration of available evidence to determine whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to allow for the realization of existing deferred tax assets. We involved income tax professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in evaluating the Company’s application of income tax regulations used in its realizability analysis. This included evaluating the scheduling of the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences to assess the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in each tax jurisdiction before their scheduled expiration. We evaluated the Company’s consideration of cumulative pre-tax losses and the net deferred tax position in assessing whether deferred tax assets were more than 50% likely of being realized.

Goodwill impairment analysis of the Inspection and Heat Treating (“IHT”) reporting unit

As discussed in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has three reporting units and performs a goodwill impairment test at a reporting unit level on an annual basis on December 1 and whenever there are sufficient indicators that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. This involves estimating the fair value of the reporting unit using both a discounted cash flow model analysis and a market approach for comparable companies. The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent mitigation efforts, such as closures of businesses and manufacturing facilities, the promotion of social distancing, the adoption of working from home by companies and institutions, travel restrictions, and declines in oil and gas prices, caused disruption to the Company’s business. Such disruption resulted in a decline in forecasts, and a deterioration of the Company’s market capitalization during the first quarter of 2020. Accordingly, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred and performed an interim goodwill impairment assessment. As a result, the carrying amount of the IHT reporting unit exceeded its fair value and the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge to the IHT reporting unit of $191.8 million, fully impairing the reporting unit.

We identified the evaluation of the goodwill impairment analysis of the IHT reporting unit as a critical audit matter. Evaluating the estimated fair value of the IHT reporting unit derived from assumptions used in a discounted cash flow model analysis required a high degree of auditor judgment. Specifically, the forecasted revenue, revenue growth rates, and the discount rate assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the reporting unit required subjective auditor judgment as they are sensitive to variation based on future market and economic conditions and could have an effect on the Company’s assessment of the impairment charge.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls over the Company’s goodwill impairment process. This included controls related to the determination of the fair value of the IHT reporting unit and the forecasted revenue, revenue growth rates, and discount rate assumptions. To assess the Company’s ability to accurately forecast, we compared the Company’s historical forecasted revenue related to the IHT reporting unit to actual results. We performed sensitivity analyses related to forecasted revenue assumptions to assess the impact of changes in those assumptions on the Company’s determination of fair value. We involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in:

• evaluating the Company’s forecasted revenue growth rates for the IHT reporting unit, by comparing them to revenue growth rates of comparable companies

• evaluating the Company’s discount rate by comparing it against a discount rate range that was independently developed using publicly available market data for comparable companies

• performing sensitivity analysis related to discount rate to assess the impact of changes to discount rate on the Company’s determination of fair value.

Extinguishment of Convertible Debt

43

Table of Contents

As described in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company retired $136.9 million par value of its Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (referred to as the “Notes”) for $135.5 million in December 2020 and allocated the fair value of consideration transferred at settlement between the debt and equity components of the Notes. The amounts allocated to the debt and equity components of the Notes were $121.8 million and $13.7 million, respectively, and the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of $2.2 million.

We identified the evaluation of the accounting for the consideration and the valuation of the debt component of the Notes as a critical audit matter. Evaluating the appropriate accounting for the Notes required complex auditor judgment. Additionally, a high degree of auditor judgment and the involvement of valuation specialists was required to evaluate the fair value of the debt component of the Notes.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to this critical audit matter. This included controls related to the Company’s evaluation of the appropriate accounting guidance and the valuation of the debt component of the Notes. To assess the Company’s accounting for the extinguishment of the Notes, we evaluated the Company’s analysis of relevant accounting guidance, established accounting policies, and key terms and features of the Notes. Such analysis included the determination of the allocation of the fair value of consideration between the debt and equity components of the Notes. We involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge to assist in evaluating the fair value of the debt component of the Notes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES

Description of Business. Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” are used in this report to refer to either Team, Inc., to one or more of our consolidated subsidiaries or to all of them taken as a whole.

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 three segments: Inspection and Heat Treating (“IHT”), Mechanical Services (“MS”) and Quest Integrity. Through the capabilities and resources in these three 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 escalating 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 non-destructive testing (“NDT”) services primarily for the process, pipeline and power sectors, pipeline integrity management services, and field heat treating services, 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.

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.

Quest Integrity provides integrity and reliability management solutions for the process, pipeline and power sectors. These solutions encompass three 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; (2) advanced engineering and condition assessment services through a multi-disciplined engineering team and related lab support; and (3) advanced digital imaging including remote digital video imaging, laser scanning and laser profilometry-enabled reformer care services.

We market our services to companies in a diverse array of heavy industries which include:

•Energy (refining, power, renewables, nuclear and liquefied natural gas);

•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.

Recent Developments. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and the rest of the world. The COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions created significant volatility and uncertainty in domestic and international markets over the past year. Additionally, oil demand significantly deteriorated as a result of the pandemic and the corresponding preventative measures taken around the world to mitigate the spread of the virus. These negative factors created significant volatility and uncertainty in the markets in which we operate and, as a result, certain clients have responded with

50

Table of Contents

capital spending budget cuts, cost cutting measures, personnel layoffs, limited facility access, and facility closures among other actions.

Though the impact of COVID-19 and the decline in crude oil prices on our operations has varied by geographic conditions, the applicable government mandates have adversely affected our workforce and operations, as well as the operations of our clients, suppliers and contractors. The ultimate duration and impact on our global operations remains unclear. We expect that our results of operations in future periods may continue to be adversely impacted due to the factors noted above. To successfully navigate through this unprecedented period, we continue to focus on the following key priorities:

• the safety of our employees and business continuity;

• decisive and aggressive actions taken to reduce costs, preserve capacity and manage margins to align our business with the near-term decrease in demand for our services; and

• our end market revenue diversification strategy.

To respond to the economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the drop in oil prices, we initiated a cost reduction and efficiency program during the second quarter of 2020. All named executive officers have voluntarily taken temporary salary reductions ranging from 15% to 20% of their base salary. In addition, we instituted a reduction for certain other salaried employees, at lower percentages, and suspended our voluntary match under the executive deferred compensation retirement plan and our 401(k) plan. Further, our board of directors voluntarily agreed to a 20% reduction of their cash compensation. These reductions continue into 2021.

Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), we are qualified to defer the employer portion of social security taxes incurred through the end of calendar 2020. As of December 31, 2020, we have deferred employer payroll taxes of $14.2 million with approximately half of the deferral due in each of 2021 and 2022. We may defer additional future employer payroll taxes under the CARES Act. Additionally, other governments in jurisdictions where we operate passed legislation to provide employers with relief programs, which include wage subsidy grants and deferral of certain payroll related expenses and tax payments and other benefits. We elected to treat qualified government subsidies from Canada and other governments as offsets to the related expenses. As a result, we recognized $9.9 million and $2.4 million as a reduction to operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, we also deferred certain payroll related expenses and tax payments of $4.6 million under other foreign government programs which will be due in 2021 and 2022.

Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our subsidiaries where we have control over operating and financial policies. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates. Our accounting policies conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported financial position and results of operations. We review significant estimates and judgments affecting our consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis and record the effect of any necessary adjustments prior to their publication. Estimates and judgments are based on information available at the time such estimates and judgments are made. Adjustments made with respect to the use of these estimates and judgments often relate to information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and judgments are inherent in the preparation of financial statements. Estimates and judgments are used in, among other things, (1) aspects of revenue recognition, (2) valuation of acquisition related tangible and intangible assets and assessments of all long-lived assets for possible impairment, (3) estimating various factors used to accrue liabilities for workers’ compensation, auto, medical and general liability, (4) establishing an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, (5) estimating the useful lives of our assets, (6) assessing future tax exposure and the realization of tax assets, (7) selecting assumptions used in the measurement of costs and liabilities associated with defined benefit pension plans, (8) assessments of fair value and (9) managing our foreign currency risk in foreign operations. Our most significant accounting policies are described below.

Fair value of financial instruments. As defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC 820”), 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 at the measurement date. We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. We primarily apply the market approach for recurring fair value measurements and endeavor to utilize the best information available. Accordingly, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The use of unobservable inputs is intended to allow for fair value determinations in situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. We are able to classify fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. ASC 820 establishes a

51

Table of Contents

fair value hierarchy such that “Level 1” measurements include unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market, “Level 2” measurements include quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market which have been adjusted for items such as effects of restrictions for transferability and those that are not quoted but are observable through corroboration with observable market data, including quoted market prices for similar assets, and “Level 3” measurements include those that are unobservable and of a highly subjective measure.

Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt obligations. The carrying amount of cash, cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable are representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of our ABL Facility and Term Loan (defined below) is representative of the carrying value based upon the variable terms and management’s opinion that the current rates available to us with the same maturity and security structure are equivalent to that of the debt. The fair value of our 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $91.9 million and $241.7 million, respectively, (inclusive of the fair value of the conversion option) and are a “Level 2” measurement, determined based on the observed trading price of these instruments. For additional information regarding our ABL Facility, Term Loan and Notes, see Note 10. Long-Term Debt, Derivatives and Letters of Credit.

Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of all demand deposits and funds invested in highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Inventory. Except for certain inventories that are valued based on weighted-average cost, we use the first-in, first-out method to value our inventory. Inventory includes material, labor and certain fixed overhead costs. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed periodically and carrying cost is reduced to net realizable value for inventories for which their cost exceeds their utility. The cost of inventories consumed or products sold are included in operating expenses.

Property, plant and equipment. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their respective useful life or the lease term. Depreciation and amortization of assets are computed by the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets:

Classification Useful Life

Buildings 20-40 years

Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) System 15 years

Leasehold improvements 2-15 years

Machinery and equipment 2-12 years

Furniture and fixtures 2-10 years

Computers and computer software 2-5 years

Automobiles 2-5 years

Goodwill and intangible assets. We allocate the purchase price of acquired businesses to their identifiable tangible assets and liabilities, such as accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. We also allocate a portion of the purchase price to identifiable intangible assets, such as client relationships, non-compete agreements, trade names, technology and licenses. Allocations are based on estimated fair values of assets and liabilities. We use all available information to estimate fair values including quoted market prices, the carrying value of acquired assets, and widely accepted valuation techniques such as discounted cash flows. Certain estimates and judgments are required in the application of the fair value techniques, including estimates of future cash flows, selling prices, replacement costs, economic lives and the selection of a discount rate, as well as the use of “Level 3” measurements as defined in ASC 820. Deferred taxes are recorded for any differences between the assigned values and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Estimated deferred taxes are based on available information concerning the tax bases of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and loss carryforwards at the acquisition date, although such estimates may change in the future as additional information becomes known. Any remaining excess of cost over allocated fair values is recorded as goodwill. We typically engage third-party valuation experts to assist in determining the fair values for both the identifiable tangible and intangible assets. The judgments made in determining the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives, could materially impact our results of operations.

52

Table of Contents

Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but are instead tested for impairment, and assessed for potential triggering events, at least annually in accordance with the provisions of the ASC 350 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). Intangible assets with estimated useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values and reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 350. We assess goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level, which we have determined to be the same as our operating segments. Each reporting unit has goodwill relating to past acquisitions.

If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we measure any goodwill impairment losses as the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Our goodwill annual test date is December 1 of each year.

Income taxes. We follow the guidance of ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires that we use the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes and provide deferred income taxes for all significant temporary differences. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax payable or receivable and related tax expense or benefit together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of certain items, such as depreciation, for tax and accounting purposes. These differences can result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheets.

In accordance with ASC 740, we are required to assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be realized and, to the extent we believe it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, we must establish a valuation allowance. We consider all available evidence to determine whether, based on the weight of the evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. Evidence used includes the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, taxable income in prior carryback years if carryback is permitted by tax law, information about our current financial position and our results of operations for the current and preceding years, as well as all currently available information about future years, including our anticipated future performance and tax planning strategies.

We regularly assess whether it is more likely than not that we will realize the deferred tax assets in the jurisdictions we operate in. Management believes future sources of taxable income, reversing temporary differences and other tax planning strategies will be sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets for which no valuation allowance has been established. Our valuation allowance primarily relates to net operating loss carryforwards. While we have considered these factors in assessing the need for additional valuation allowance, there is no assurance that additional valuation allowance would not need to be established in the future if information about future years change. Any changes in valuation allowance would impact our income tax provision and net income (loss) in the period in which such a determination is made. As of December 31, 2020, our deferred tax assets were $90.5 million, less a valuation allowance of $53.4 million. As of December 31, 2020, our deferred tax liabilities were $34.7 million.

Significant judgment is required in assessing the timing and amounts of deductible and taxable items for tax purposes. In accordance with ASC 740-10, we establish reserves for uncertain tax positions when, despite our belief that our tax return positions are supportable, we believe that it is not more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon challenge. When facts and circumstances change, we adjust these reserves through our provision for income taxes. To the extent interest and penalties may be assessed by taxing authorities on any related underpayment of income tax, such amounts have been accrued and are classified as a component of income tax expense (benefit) in our consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2020, our gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding penalties and interest related to uncertain tax positions, were $1.6 million.

Workers’ compensation, auto, medical and general liability accruals. In accordance with ASC 450 Contingencies (“ASC 450”), we record a loss contingency when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We review our loss contingencies on an ongoing basis to ensure that we have appropriate reserves recorded on our balance sheet. These reserves are based on historical experience with claims incurred but not received, estimates and judgments made by management, applicable insurance coverage for litigation matters, and are adjusted as circumstances warrant. For workers’ compensation, our self-insured retention is $1.0 million and our automobile liability self-insured retention is currently $1.0 million per occurrence. For general liability claims, we have an effective self-insured retention of $1.0 million and a deductible of $2.0 million per occurrence. For medical claims, our self-insured retention is $350,000 per individual claimant determined on an annual basis. For environmental liability claims, our self-insured retention is $1.0 million per occurrence. We maintain insurance for claims that exceed such self-retention limits. The insurance is subject to terms, conditions, limitations and exclusions that may not fully compensate us for all losses. Our estimates and judgments could change based on new information, changes in laws or regulations, changes in management’s plans or intentions, or the outcome

of legal proceedings, settlements or other factors. If different estimates and judgments were applied with respect to these matters, it is likely that reserves would be recorded for different amounts.

Allowance for credit losses. In the ordinary course of business, a portion of our accounts receivable are not collected due to billing disputes, customer bankruptcies, dissatisfaction with the services we performed and other various reasons. We establish an allowance to account for those accounts receivable that we estimate will eventually be deemed uncollectible. The allowance for credit losses is based on a combination of our historical experience and management’s review of long outstanding accounts receivable.

Concentration of credit risk.No single customer accounts for more than 10% of consolidated revenues.

Earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) from continuing operations, income (loss) from discontinued operations or net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) from continuing operations, income (loss) from discontinued operations or net income (loss) by the sum of (1) the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, (2) the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of share-based compensation using the treasury stock method and (3) the dilutive effect of the assumed conversion of our Notes under the treasury stock method. Our current intent is to settle the principal amount of our Notes in cash upon conversion. If the conversion value exceeds the principal amount, we may elect to deliver shares of our common stock with respect to the remainder of our conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount (the “conversion spread”). Accordingly, the conversion spread is included in the denominator for the computation of diluted earnings per common share using the treasury stock method and the numerator is adjusted for any recorded gain or loss, net of tax, on the embedded derivative associated with the conversion feature.

Amounts used in basic and diluted loss per share, for all periods presented, are as follows (in thousands):

Stock options, stock units and performance awards — — —

Convertible senior notes — — —

For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, all outstanding share-based compensation awards were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion would be antidilutive due to the loss from continuing operations in those periods. Also, the effect of our Notes was excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share since the conversion price exceeded the average price of our common stock during the applicable periods. For information on our Notes and our share-based compensation awards, refer to Note 10 and Note 12, respectively.

Non-cash investing and financing activities. Non-cash investing and financing activities are excluded from the consolidated statements of cash flows and are as follows (in thousands):

Also, we had $1.2 million, $4.0 million, and $1.4 million of accrued capital expenditures as of December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which are excluded from the consolidated statements of cash flows until paid.

Foreign currency. For subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. Dollar, assets and liabilities are translated at period ending rates of exchange and revenues and expenses are translated at period average exchange rates. Translation adjustments for the asset and liability accounts are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in our statements of operations.

We utilize monthly foreign currency swap contracts to reduce exposures to changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to our largest exposures including, but not limited to, the Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Brazilian Real, British

Pound, Euro, Malaysian Ringgit and Mexican Peso. The impact from these swap contracts was not material as of December 31, 2020 or 2019 or for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

Defined benefit pension plans. Pension benefit costs and liabilities are dependent on assumptions used in calculating such amounts. The primary assumptions include factors such as discount rates, expected investment return on plan assets, mortality rates and retirement rates. These rates are reviewed annually and adjusted to reflect current conditions. These rates are determined based on reference to yields. The expected return on plan assets is derived from detailed periodic studies, which include a review of asset allocation strategies, anticipated future long-term performance of individual asset classes, risks (standard deviations) and correlations of returns among the asset classes that comprise the plans’ asset mix. While the studies give appropriate consideration to recent plan performance and historical returns, the assumptions are primarily long-term, prospective rates of return. Mortality and retirement rates are based on actual and anticipated plan experience. In accordance with GAAP, actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated and are subject to amortization over future periods and, therefore, generally affect recognized expense in future periods. While we believe that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions may affect the pension obligation and future expense.

Reclassifications. Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications did not have any effect on our financial condition or results of operations as previously reported.

Newly Adopted Accounting Standards

Topic 326 - Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which established ASC Topic 326, Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). Along with subsequent ASUs to clarify certain provisions, ASC 326 introduced a new impairment model for financial instruments that is based on expected credit losses rather than incurred credit losses. The new impairment model applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade accounts receivable.

We adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts are reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP based on incurred credit losses. The cumulative effect of our adoption of ASC 326 on January 1, 2020 resulted in a $1.0 million decrease, net of tax, to beginning retained earnings on our consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 3 for further discussion of ASC 326.

ASU No. 2018-15. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Topic 350): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”), that requires implementation costs incurred in cloud computing arrangements to be deferred and recognized over the term of the arrangement, if those costs would be capitalized in a software licensing arrangement under the internal-use software guidance in Topic 350. ASU 2018-15 requires an entity to disclose the nature of its hosting arrangements that are service contracts and provide disclosures as if the deferred implementation costs were a separate, major depreciable asset class. Our adoption of ASU No. 2018-15 as of January 1, 2020 resulted in a reduction of $4.9 million from property, plant, and equipment with $0.9 million reclassified to prepaid expenses and other current assets and $4.0 million reclassified to other assets, net on our consolidated balance sheet.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

ASU No. 2019-12. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, that simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating some exceptions to the general approach in ASC 740, Income Taxes as well as clarifies aspects of existing guidance to promote more consistent application. ASU 2019-12 clarifies and amends existing guidance related to intraperiod tax allocation and calculations, recognition of deferred taxes for change in ownership group, evaluation of a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill and other clarifications. Our adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact to our financial statements.

ASU No. 2020-04. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which was issued in January 2021, provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria that reference LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. While we are currently determining whether we will elect the optional expedients, we do not expect our adoption of these ASU’s to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

55

Table of Contents

ASU No. 2020-06. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating certain separation models and will generally be reported as a single liability at its amortized cost. In addition, ASU 2020-06 eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. We expect to adopt ASU 2020-06 beginning January 1, 2022, at which time we would utilize the if-converted method, which would require us to assume the Notes would be settled entirely in shares of common stock for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, if the effect would be dilutive. We are still evaluating the other impacts this ASU may have on our financial statements.

2. REVENUE

In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (“ASC 606”), we follow a five-step process to recognize revenue: 1) identify the contract with the customer, 2) identify the performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and 5) recognize revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied.

Most of our contracts with customers are short-term in nature and billed on a time and materials basis, while certain other contracts are at a fixed price. Certain contracts may contain a combination of fixed and variable elements. We act as a principal and have performance obligations to provide the service itself or oversee the services provided by any subcontractors. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as taxes assessed by governmental authorities. Generally, in contracts where the amount of consideration is variable, the amount is determinable each period based on our right to invoice (as discussed further below) the customer for services performed to date. As most of our contracts contain only one performance obligation, the allocation of a contracts transaction price to multiple performance obligations is generally not applicable. Customers are generally billed as we satisfy our performance obligations and payment terms typically range from 30 to 90 days from the invoice date. Billings under certain fixed-price contracts may be based upon the achievement of specified milestones, while some arrangements may require advance customer payment. Our contracts do not include significant financing components since the contracts typically span less than one year. Contracts generally include an assurance type warranty clause to guarantee that the services comply with agreed specifications. The warranty period typically is twelve months or less from the date of service. Warranty expenses were not material for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018.

Revenue is recognized as (or when) the performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control over a service or product to the customer. Revenue recognition guidance prescribes two recognition methods (over time or point in time). Most of our performance obligations qualify for recognition over time because we typically perform our services on customer facilities or assets and customers receive the benefits of our services as we perform. Where a performance obligation is satisfied over time, the related revenue is also recognized over time using the method deemed most appropriate to reflect the measure of progress and transfer of control. For our time and materials contracts, we are generally able to elect the right-to-invoice practical expedient, which permits us to recognize revenue in the amount to which we have a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date. For our fixed price contracts, we typically recognize revenue using the cost-to-cost method, which measures the extent of progress towards completion based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Under this method, revenue is recognized proportionately as costs are incurred. For contracts where control is transferred at a point in time, revenue is recognized at the time control of the asset is transferred to the customer, which is typically upon delivery and acceptance by the customer.

Disaggregation of revenue. Essentially all of our revenues are associated with contracts with customers. A disaggregation of our revenue from contracts with customers by geographic region, by reportable operating segment and by service type is presented below (in thousands):

Contract balances. The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in trade accounts receivable, contract assets and contract liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Trade accounts receivable include billed and unbilled amounts currently due from customers and represent unconditional rights to receive consideration. The amounts due are stated at their net estimated realizable value. Refer to Notes 1 and 3 for additional information on our trade receivables and the allowance for credit losses. Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under fixed-price contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized, the revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer and the right to payment is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Amounts may not exceed their net realizable value. If we receive advances or deposits from our customers, a contract liability is recorded. Additionally, a contract liability arises if items of variable consideration result in less revenue being recorded than what is billed. Contract assets and contract liabilities are generally classified as current.

The following table provides information about trade accounts receivable, contract assets and contract liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):

_________________

1 Includes billed and unbilled amounts, net of allowance for credit losses. See Note 3 for details.

2 Included in the “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” line on the consolidated balance sheet.

3 Included in the “Other accrued liabilities” line of the consolidated balance sheet.

Table of Contents

The $0.5 million decrease in our contract assets from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020 is due to fewer fixed price contracts in progress at December 31, 2020 as compared to December 31, 2019, consistent with lower activity levels in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter in 2019. The $0.9 million decrease in contract liabilities is due to our completion of performance obligations during the year ended December 31, 2019 associated with contracts under which customers had paid for all or a portion of the consideration in advance of the work being performed. Due to the short-term nature of our contracts, contract liability balances as of the end of any period are generally recognized as revenue in the following quarter. Accordingly, essentially all of the contract liability balance at December 31, 2019 was recognized as revenue during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Contract costs. We recognize the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as selling, general and administrative expenses when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that otherwise would have been recognized is one year or less. Costs to fulfill a contract are recorded as assets if they relate directly to a contract or a specific anticipated contract, the costs generate or enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future and the costs are expected to be recovered. Costs to fulfill recognized as assets primarily consist of labor and materials costs and generally relate to engineering and set-up costs incurred prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations begins. Assets recognized for costs to fulfill a contract are included in the “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” line of the consolidated balance sheets and were not material as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. Such assets are recognized as expenses as we transfer the related goods or services to the customer. All other costs to fulfill a contract are expensed as incurred.

Remaining performance obligations. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no material amounts of remaining performance obligations that are required to be disclosed. As permitted by ASC 606, we have elected not to disclose information about remaining performance obligations where i) the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less or ii) when we recognize revenue from the satisfaction of the performance obligation in accordance with the right-to-invoice practical expedient.

3. RECEIVABLES

A summary of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 is as follows (in thousands):

December 31,

Allowance for credit losses (9,918) (9,990)

ASC 326 applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade and unbilled accounts receivable, and requires immediate recognition of lifetime expected credit losses. Significant factors that affect the expected collectability of our receivables include macroeconomic trends and forecasts in the oil and gas, refining, power, and petrochemical markets and changes in our results of operations and forecasts. For unbilled receivables, we consider them as short-term in nature as they are normally converted to trade receivables within 90 days, thus future changes in economic conditions will not have a significant effect on the credit loss estimate. We have identified the following factors that primarily impact the collectability of our receivables and therefore determine the pools utilized to calculate expected credit losses: (i) the aging of the receivable, (ii) any identification of known collectability concerns with specific receivables and (iii) variances in economic risk characteristics across geographic regions.

For trade receivables, customers typically are provided with payment due date terms of 30 days upon issuance of an invoice. We have tracked historical loss information for our trade receivables and compiled historical credit loss percentages for different aging categories. We believe that the historical loss information we have compiled is a reasonable basis on which to determine expected credit losses for trade receivables because the composition of the trade receivables is consistent with that used in developing the historical credit-loss percentages as typically our customers and payment terms do not change significantly. Generally, a longer outstanding receivable equates to a higher percentage of the outstanding balance as current expected credit losses. We update the historical loss information for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the trade receivable using a loss-rate approach. We have not seen a negative trend in the current economic environment that significantly impacts our historical credit-loss percentages; however, we will continue to monitor for changes that would indicate the historical loss information is no longer a reasonable basis for the determination of our expected credit losses. Our forecasted loss rates inherently incorporate expected macroeconomic trends. A loss-rate method

58

Table of Contents

for estimating expected credit losses on a pooled basis is applied for each aging category for receivables that continue to exhibit similar risk characteristics.

To measure expected credit losses for individual receivables with specific collectability risk, we identify specific factors based on customer-specific facts and circumstances that are unique to each customer. Customer accounts with different risk characteristics are separately identified and a specific reserve is determined for these accounts based on the assessed credit risk.

We have also identified the following geographic regions in which to distinguish our trade receivables: the (i) United States, (ii) Canada, (iii) the European Union, (iv) the United Kingdom, and (v) other countries. These geographic regions are considered appropriate as they each operate in different economic environments with different foreign currencies, and therefore share similar economic risk characteristics. For each geographic region we evaluate the historical loss information and determine credit-loss percentages to apply to each aging category and individual receivable with specific risk characteristics. We estimate future expected credit losses based on forecasted changes in gross domestic product and oil demand for each region.

We consider one year from the financial statement reporting date as representing a reasonable forecast period as this period aligns with the expected collectability of our trade receivables. Financial distress experienced by our customers could have an adverse impact on us in the event our customers are unable to remit payment for the products or services we provide or otherwise fulfill their obligations to us. In determining the current expected credit losses, we review macroeconomic conditions, market specific conditions, and internal forecasts to identify potential changes in our assessment.

The following table shows a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses:

60

Table of Contents

The decline in amortization expense in 2019 is primarily due to a change in the estimated useful life of an intangible asset associated with the Furmanite trade name in 2018. Management determined that, as a result of initiatives to consolidate our branding, the useful life of this intangible asset was not expected to extend beyond December 31, 2018. In accordance with ASC 350, we accounted for the change in useful life prospectively effective January 1, 2018 and amortized the remaining balance over 2018, which resulted in incremental amortization expense in 2018 of $12 million which did not recur in 2019.

The weighted-average amortization period for intangible assets subject to amortization was 13.6 years as of December 31, 2020. The weighted-average amortization period as of December 31, 2020 is 13.6 years for customer relationships, 5.0 years for non-compete agreements, 15.0 years for trade names, 10.0 years for technology and 10.5 years for licenses.

7. GOODWILL AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES

The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent mitigation efforts, which included global business and societal shutdowns and the implementation of mandatory social distancing requirements, created an unprecedented disruption to our business during 2020. These mitigation efforts coupled with the negative economic impacts to the oil and gas industry caused by the substantial decline in the global demand for oil and the concurrent surplus in the supply of oil resulting from geopolitical tensions between OPEC regarding limits on production of oil significantly impacted our business. Even though our services are primarily related to infrastructure support, the oil and gas industry is one of the key industries we serve and our clients have been significantly impacted as a result of these events.

As our clients continue to adjust spending levels in response to the lower commodity prices, we have experienced activity reductions and pricing pressure for our products and services, primarily in our IHT and MS reporting units, which we expect to continue. In line with these changing market conditions, our market capitalization also deteriorated during the first quarter of 2020 and most significantly in late March 2020. In response to these events and the related decline in our forecasts from the COVID-19 pandemic, we announced cost-cutting measures to offset the expected impact to our business. We determined the totality of these events constituted a triggering event that required us to perform an interim goodwill impairment assessment as of March 31, 2020.

We determined the fair value for each reporting unit in our goodwill impairment assessment using both a discounted cash flow analysis and a multiples based market approach for comparable companies. We utilized third-party valuation advisors to assist us with these valuations. These analyses included significant judgment, including forecasted revenue, short-term and long-term forecast of operating performance, discount rates based on our weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rates, profitability margins, capital expenditures and the timing of future cash flows. These impairment assessments incorporate inherent uncertainties, including supply and demand for our services, utilization forecasts, pricing forecasts and future market conditions, which are difficult to predict in volatile economic environments and could result in impairment charges in future periods if actual results materially differ from the assumptions utilized in our forecasts.

Based upon our impairment assessment, we determined the carrying amount of our IHT reporting unit exceeded the fair value. As a result, we recorded $191.8 million in goodwill impairment charges on our IHT reporting unit during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The fair value of the MS and Quest Integrity reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values.

We have three reporting units and perform a goodwill impairment test at a reporting unit level on an annual basis on December 1 and whenever there are sufficient indicators that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. For our annual goodwill impairment test as of December 1, 2020, we elected to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if it was more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair values of our reporting units were less than their respective carrying values as of the test date. Our qualitative assessment for December 1, 2020 considered relevant events and circumstances occurring since the quantitative assessment performed on March 31, 2020. Specifically, we considered changes in our stock price, industry and market conditions, our internal forecasts of future revenue and expenses, any significant events affecting us and actual changes in the carrying value of our net assets. After considering all positive and negative evidence for the assessments as of this date, we concluded that it was not more likely than not that our carrying values exceeded fair values and, as such, no additional impairment was indicated. We will continue to evaluate our goodwill and long-lived assets for potential triggering events as conditions warrant.

Management evaluates all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to allow for the realization of the existing deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is recognized if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. A significant factor of negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative pre-tax loss incurred over the three-year period ended December 31, 2020. This objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective positive evidence, such as our projections for future pre-tax income.

On the basis of this evaluation, as of December 31, 2020, a valuation allowance of $53.4 million has been recorded to recognize only the portion of the deferred tax asset that is more likely than not to be realized. This valuation allowance relates primarily to the deferred tax assets for federal, foreign and state tax net operating loss carryforwards. The amount of deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if there are changes to net operating loss carryforward periods or there is a change to the weight assessed on various sources of positive and negative evidence.

The deferred tax asset presented for net operating loss carryforwards is net of any unrecognized tax benefits that has been established related to income tax returns filed.

At December 31, 2020, we had net operating loss carry forwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes of $174.9 million. Of this amount, $93.4 million expires in various dates through 2037 and $81.5 million has an indefinite carry forward period. These carryforwards are available, subject to certain limitations, to offset future taxable income. Further, we have state net operating loss carryforwards of $166.0 million with $151.5 million expiring on various dates through 2040 and $14.5 million with an indefinite carryforward period.

As of December 31, 2019, we had alternative minimum tax credits of approximately $2.1 million which can be used to offset regular income tax or is refundable. Pursuant to a provision of the CARES Act, we filed for and received the full refund of these alternative minimum tax credits in 2020.

Filing HTML rendered to line-structured narrative text by the shipped reducer (datafeeds.edgar_fulltext.visible_text, keep_table_headers=True): scripts and inline-XBRL headers are dropped, and table content is reduced to its short label cells — numeric table data is not rendered and is therefore not counted. The same rendering is used for every year, so a year-over-year comparison is like for like.

The text is our rendering of the filing, not a facsimile: original pagination, typography and tables are not reproduced, and the numbers live in the financial statements (FA).

The outline locates item HEADINGS in this document. Only Items 1A and 7 have certified boundaries elsewhere in the terminal (the redline and the narrative-overlap number); every span here runs from one heading found to the next heading found.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 21 headings are on that chain and 15 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
