1.業務描述及基礎介紹;
我們是一家能源基礎設施公司,主要專注中遊天然氣壓縮。我們是美國能源行業客戶中,按總壓縮馬力計的天然氣壓縮服務的領先提供商,也是美國擁有壓縮設備的客戶主要售後服務供應商。我們業務範圍涉及
附表中的未經審核的精簡合併基本財務報表已按照10-Q表格的說明進行了準備,並不包括GAAP要求的所有信息和披露。因此,應該將這些信息與我們2023年的10-K表格中包含的合併財務報表和附註一同閱讀。此處提供的信息反映了管理層認為屬於一般性重現性質並被認為對中期報告結果的公平陳述所必要的所有調整。所有公司間結餘和交易已在合併中予以消除。截至2024年9月30日的九個月營運結果未必能反映預期將於2024年12月31日年結實現的結果。
2. 近期的會計發展
尚未實施的會計準則更新
所得稅揭示
2023年12月,FASB發布了ASU 2023-09《所得稅(主題740):改善所得稅披露》,該標準將要求進行顯著的額外披露,主要著重於所得稅支付和稅率協調表的披露。ASU 2023-09將於2024年12月15日後開始的財政年度以及2025年12月15日後開始的財政年度內的中期期間生效,應以前瞻性方式應用,並具有回顧性選擇。允許提前採納。我們正在評估採用ASU 2023-09對我們合併財務報表和相關披露將產生的影響。
板塊報告
2023年11月,財務會計準則委員會發布了ASU 2023-07,即《節段報告(第280號主題):改善可報告節段披露》,該準則將要求對每個可報告節段的重大費用進行披露,以及其他一些披露以幫助投資者了解首席營運決策者如何評估節段費用和營運結果。ASU 2023-07還將允許披露多種節段盈利能力的指標,如果這些指標用於資源分配和評估績效的話。ASU 2023-07將對2023年12月15日後開始的財政年度及2024年12月15日後開始的財政年度內的中期時段起生效,並應採取溯及力原則進行申報,除非不切實際。可提前採納。我們正在評估採納ASU 2023-07對我們節段披露所產生的影響。我們預計採納ASU 2023-07對我們的合併財務報表不會造成重大影響。
10
業務合併 - 合資企業的成立
2023年8月,FASB發佈了ASU 2023-05,以減少實踐中的多樣性,併爲合資企業的投資者提供決策有用的信息,要求合資企業在成立時應用一種新的會計基礎。通過應用一種新的會計基礎,合資企業將在成立日期以公允價值確認和初始計量其資產和負債,公允價值計量的例外情況與業務合併指南一致。ASU 2023-05對所有成立日期在2025年1月1日或之後的合資企業的成立具有前瞻性生效。此外,2025年1月1日之前成立的合資企業可以選擇追溯適用該修訂,前提是它有足夠的信息來做到這一點。允許在未發佈或未提供發佈的任何中期或年度期間提前採用,無論是前瞻性還是追溯性。我們預計ASU 2023-05的採用將不會對我們的合併基本報表產生影響。
3. 業務交易
TOPS 收購
在2024年8月30日,我們完成了TOPS收購,我們收購了TOPS所有已發行和流通的股權,包括大約的艦隊
The TOPS Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recorded at their fair value on the acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price, which is subject to certain adjustments, was based upon preliminary valuations. Our estimates and assumptions are subject to change upon the completion of management’s review of the final valuations. We are in the process of finalizing valuations related to property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. Post-closing adjustments to the purchase price could impact future depreciation and amortization as well as income tax expense. The final valuation of net assets acquired is expected to be completed as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.
The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

以下按資產類別詳細說明公允價值測量的估值方法和重要輸入。關於物業、廠房及設備以及無形資產的公允價值測量基於市場上不可觀察的重要輸入,因此代表了第3級測量。
固定資產
物業、廠房及設備的初步金額主要由電動馬達驅動壓縮設備組成,這些設備將根據預計的平均剩餘使用壽命,以直線法折舊。
其他固定資產採用間接成本法進行估值,即使用已發佈的指數應用特定於資產的趨勢信息,計算反映歷史成本的資產的估計更換成本。其他資產根據已發佈的正常使用壽命估算和以前與類似資產的經驗進行折舊。
無形資產
無形資產包括客戶關係和商標,估計使用壽命爲
與客戶關係相關的可識別無形資產的公允價值是通過多期超額收益法確定的,這是一種折現現金流法的具體應用,即收入法,我們估計並折現無形資產未來現金流,通過調整整體業務營業收入考慮流失、過時、銷售成本、營業費用、稅收以及歸屬於其他取得資產的必要回報。得出預期未來現金流時所作出的重要估計包括我們預期的客戶流失率和歸屬於這些資產的收益。爲了折現估計的未來現金流,我們使用的折現率高於我們的加權平均資本成本(WACC),以反映相對於獲得的有形資產,客戶關係的流動性較差。
一般認爲,商標的公允市場價值最好通過收入法下的免版稅法來衡量,我們通過估算第三方在許可協議中談判的合理特許權使用費率來計算特許權使用費節省,該費率以商標相關總營業收入的百分比表示。與商標相關的營業收入乘以選定的特許權使用費率,並在商標的估計使用壽命內折算得出特許權使用費節省。特許權使用費節省已稅後處理並使用與商標的風險特徵相符的折現率折現爲現值,考慮到我們的加權平均資本成本(WACC)及TOPS其它取得資產的收益。

保險事宜
我們的業務可能存在危險,涉及到不可控制的天然氣或井液流動、火災或爆炸等意外情況。按照行業慣例,我們審查安全設備和程序,併購買了部分業務風險的保險,但並非所有風險。我們的保險範圍包括財產損失、綜合責任和商業汽車責任以及我們認爲合適的其他保險。我們認爲我們的保險覆蓋範圍符合行業慣例,並且對我們的業務足夠,但是;若保險未覆蓋的損失和責任將增加我們的成本。
此外,鑑於我們在工傷賠償和員工醫療索賠方面基本上是自我承擔的,因爲我們在這些風險方面承擔了相對較高的事故免賠額,根據已知事實、歷史趨勢和行業平均水平,我們進行損失預估並根據實際情況提取準備金。 我們的離岸資產的財產損害也是自保的。
稅務事項
我們受到許多州和地方稅收的規定,這些稅收並非基於收入。由於這些稅項可能會接受稅務機關的審計,因此可能會導致額外的稅款。當我們判斷可能已經承擔了責任並且可以合理估計到達時,我們會爲這樣的額外稅款進行計提。截至2024年9月30日和2023年12月31日,我們分別爲非收入稅收審計結果的後果準備了$

Litigation and Claims
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, we believe that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and arbitration proceedings, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends.

11. Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairment
We review long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangibles that are being amortized, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, including the removal of compressors from our active fleet, indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Compression Fleet
We periodically review the future deployment of our idle compression assets for units that are not of the type, configuration, condition, make or model that are cost efficient to maintain and operate. Based on these reviews, we determine that certain idle compressors should be retired from the active fleet. The retirement of these units from the active fleet triggers a review of these assets for impairment, and as a result of our review, we may record an asset impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value. The fair value of each unit is estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use.
In connection with our review of our idle compression assets, we evaluate for impairment idle units that were culled from our fleet in prior years and are available for sale. Based on that review, we may reduce the expected proceeds from disposition and record additional impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value.
The following table presents the results of our compression fleet impairment review as recorded in our contract operations segment:

13. Income Taxes
Valuation Allowance
The amount of our deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted if projections of future taxable income are reduced or objective negative evidence in the form of a three-year cumulative loss is present or both. Should we no longer have a level of sustained profitability, excluding nonrecurring charges, we will have to rely more on our future projections of taxable income to determine if we have an adequate source of taxable income for the realization of our deferred tax assets, namely net operating loss, interest expense limitation and tax credit carryforwards. This may result in the need to record a valuation allowance against all or a portion of our deferred tax assets.
Effective Tax Rate
The year-to-date effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 differed significantly from our statutory rate primarily due to state taxes, unrecognized tax benefits and the limitation on executive compensation offset by the benefit from equity-settled long-term incentive compensation.

14. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, basic earnings per common share is determined by dividing net income, after deducting amounts allocated to participating securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Participating securities include unvested restricted stock and stock-settled restricted stock units that have nonforfeitable rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid. During periods of net loss, only distributed earnings (dividends) are allocated to participating securities, as participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to participate in our undistributed losses.
Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental common stock equivalents attributed to outstanding performance-based restricted stock units and stock to be issued pursuant to our ESPP unless their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
The following table shows the calculation of net income attributable to common stockholders, which is used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share, potential shares of common stock that were included in computing diluted earnings per common share and the potential shares of common stock issuable that were excluded from computing diluted earnings per common share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Investment in ECOTEC
As of September 30, 2024, we owned a
The fair value determination of this investment primarily consisted of unobservable inputs, which creates uncertainty in the measurement of fair value as of the reporting date. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, which was valued through an average of an income approach (discounted cash flow method) and a market approach (guideline public company method), are the WACC and the revenue multiples. Significant increases (decreases) in these inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
Additional quantitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs are as follows:

Compressors
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded nonrecurring fair value measurements related to our idle compressors. Our estimate of the compressors’ fair value was primarily based on the expected net sale proceeds compared with other fleet units we recently sold and/or a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. We discounted the expected proceeds, net of selling and other carrying costs, using a weighted-average disposal period of

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Form 10-Q and in conjunction with our 2023 Form 10-K.
OVERVIEW
We are an energy infrastructure company with a pure-play focus on midstream natural gas compression. We are a premier provider of natural gas compression services, in terms of total compression fleet horsepower, to customers in the energy industry throughout the U.S., and a leading supplier of aftermarket services to customers that own compression equipment in the U.S. We operate in two business segments: contract operations and aftermarket services. Our contract operations services primarily include designing, sourcing, owning, installing, operating, servicing, repairing and maintaining our owned fleet of natural gas compression equipment to provide natural gas compression services to our customers. In our aftermarket services business, we sell parts and components and provide operations, maintenance, overhaul and reconfiguration services to customers who own compression equipment.
Recent Business Developments
TOPS Acquisition
On August 30, 2024, we completed the TOPS Acquisition whereby we acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in TOPS, including a fleet of approximately 580,000 horsepower for aggregate consideration consisting of $869.1 million in cash and 6,873,650 shares of common stock with an acquisition date fair value of $139.1 million. The cash portion of the purchase price was funded with proceeds from the July 2024 Equity Offering, the 2032 Notes offering and borrowings under the Credit Facility. See Note 3 (“Business Transactions”) for further details.
2032 Notes
On August 26, 2024, we completed a private offering of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due September 2032 and received net proceeds of $690.3 million after deducting issuance costs. The $9.7 million of issuance costs were recorded as deferred financing costs within long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations over the term of the notes. A portion of the net proceeds was used to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the TOPS Acquisition, the 2027 Notes Tender Offer and to repay borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility. See Note 7 (“Long-Term Debt”) for further details.
2027 Notes Tender Offer
In connection with the TOPS Acquisition and offering of the 2032 Notes, we completed a concurrent cash tender offer of $202.0 million, which reflects approximately 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the tendered 2027 Notes and $0.2 million of agent and legal fees. On the date of tender, the net carrying value of the tendered 2027 Notes was $198.8 million and we recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $3.2 million in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 7 (“Long-Term Debt”) for further details.
July 2024 Equity Offering
On July 24, 2024, Archrock sold, pursuant to a public underwriting offering, 12,650,000 shares, including 1,650,000 shares pursuant to an over-allotment option. Archrock received net proceeds of $255.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. Proceeds from this equity offering were used to fund a portion of the TOPS Acquisition.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted gross margin.
We define adjusted gross margin as total revenue less cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization. Adjusted gross margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary measure used by our management to evaluate the results of revenue and cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, which are key components of our operations. We believe adjusted gross margin is important because it focuses on the current operating performance of our operations and excludes the impact of the prior historical costs of the assets acquired or constructed that are utilized in those operations, the indirect costs associated with our SG&A activities, our financing methods and income taxes. In addition, depreciation and amortization may not accurately reflect the costs required to maintain and replenish the operational usage of our assets and therefore may not portray the costs of current operating activity. As an indicator of our operating performance, adjusted gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, gross margin, net income (loss) or any other measure presented in accordance with GAAP. Our adjusted gross margin may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of other entities because other entities may not calculate adjusted gross margin in the same manner.
Adjusted gross margin has certain material limitations associated with its use as compared to net income. These limitations are primarily due to the exclusion of SG&A, depreciation and amortization, long-lived and other asset impairments, restructuring charges, debt extinguishment loss, interest expense, transaction-related costs, gain on sale of assets, net, other expense (income), net and provision for income taxes. Because we intend to finance a portion of our operations through borrowings, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue. Additionally, because we use capital assets, depreciation expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue and SG&A is necessary to support our operations and required corporate activities. To compensate for these limitations, management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to other GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of our performance.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary of Results
Revenue was $292.2 million and $253.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $831.2 million and $730.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in revenue was primarily due to increased revenue from our contract operations business during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. See “Contract Operations” and “Aftermarket Services” below for further details.
Net income was $37.5 million and $30.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher adjusted gross margin from both our contract operations business and aftermarket services business. These changes were partially offset by increases in transaction-related costs, depreciation and amortization, SG&A, provision for income taxes, debt extinguishment loss and interest expense, and a decrease in gain on sale of assets, net.
Net income was $112.5 million and $72.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher adjusted gross margin from both our contract operations business and aftermarket services business. These changes were partially offset by increases in provision for income taxes, SG&A, depreciation and amortization, transaction-related costs, debt extinguishment loss, interest expense, long-lived and other asset impairment, and decreases in the gain on sale of assets, net and the unrealized change in the fair value of our investment in an unconsolidated affiliate.

Selling, general and administrative. The increase in SG&A primarily included a $3.6 million increase in employee incentive and other compensation expense, a $0.5 million increase in amortization of capitalized implementation costs and a $0.5 million increase in legal and other professional fees.
Depreciation and amortization. The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily due to fixed assets additions, including $3.7 million depreciation and amortization associated with the compression units and intangible assets acquired in the TOPS Acquisition. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in depreciation associated with assets reaching the end of their depreciable lives, the impact of compression and other asset sales, and long-lived and other asset impairments.
Long-lived and other asset impairment. We periodically review the future deployment of our idle compressors for units that are not of the type, configuration, condition, make or model that are cost efficient to maintain and operate. We also evaluate for impairment our idle units that have been culled from our compression fleet in prior years and are available for sale. During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we recognized $2.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of impairment charges to write down these compressors to their fair value. See Note 11 (“Long-Lived Asset and Other Impairments”) for further details. The following table presents the results of our compression fleet impairment review, as recorded in our contract operations segment:

Restructuring charges. Restructuring charges of $0.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 consisted of severance and consulting costs related to our restructuring activities. See Note 12 (“Restructuring Charges”) for further details
Debt extinguishment loss. We incurred $3.2 million of debt extinguishment loss during the three months ended September 30, 2024 as a result of the 2027 Notes Tender Offer.
Interest expense. The increase in interest expense was primarily related to a higher average outstanding balance of long-term debt due to the 2032 Notes offering, an increase in the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility and higher interest rates, partially offset by the 2027 Notes Tender Offer.
Transaction-related costs. We incurred $9.2 million of financial advisory, legal and other professional fees and retention and other employee compensation costs during the three months ended September 30, 2024 related to the TOPS Acquisition.
32
Gain on sale of assets, net. The decrease in gain on sale of assets, net was primarily due to gains of $2.6 million on compression asset sales during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to gains of $3.2 million on compression asset sales during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Provision for Income Taxes
The increase in provision for income taxes was primarily due to the tax effect of the increase in book income during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Selling, general and administrative. The increase in SG&A primarily included a $10.2 million increase in employee incentive and other compensation expense and a $0.9 million increase in network and computer-related costs, partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in professional fees.
Depreciation and amortization. The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily due to fixed assets additions, including $3.7 million depreciation and amortization associated with the compression units and intangible assets acquired in the TOPS Acquisition, and accelerated depreciation associated with certain assets. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in depreciation associated with assets reaching the end of their depreciable lives, the impact of compression and other asset sales, and long-lived asset impairments.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Overview
Our ability to fund operations, finance capital expenditures and pay dividends depends on the levels of our operating cash flows and access to the capital and credit markets. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from our operations and our borrowing availability under our Credit Facility. Our cash flow is affected by numerous factors, including prices and demand for our services, oil and natural gas exploration and production spending, conditions in the financial markets and other factors. We have no near-term maturities and believe that our operating cash flows and borrowings under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our future liquidity needs.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity or debt securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, may be material, will be upon terms and prices as we may determine and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.
35
Cash Requirements
Our contract operations business is capital intensive, requiring significant investment to maintain and upgrade existing operations. Our capital spending is primarily dependent on the demand for our contract operations services and the availability of the type of compression equipment required for us to provide those contract operations services to our customers. Our capital requirements have consisted primarily of, and we anticipate will continue to consist of, the following:
• | operating expenses, namely employee compensation and benefits, inventory and lube oil purchases; |
• | growth capital expenditures; |
• | maintenance capital expenditures; |
• | interest on our outstanding debt obligations; |
• | dividend payments to our stockholders; and |
• | shares repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program and to cover taxes required to be withheld on the vesting date of long-term incentive grants to employees. |
Capital Expenditures
Growth Capital Expenditures. The majority of our growth capital expenditures are related to the acquisition cost of new compressors when our idle equipment cannot be reconfigured to economically fulfill a project’s requirements and the new compressor is expected to generate economic returns that exceed our cost of capital over the compressor’s expected useful life. In addition to newly-acquired compressors, growth capital expenditures include the upgrading of major components on an existing compression package where the current configuration of the compression package is no longer in demand and the compressor is not likely to return to an operating status without the capital expenditures. These expenditures substantially modify the operating parameters of the compression package such that it can be used in applications for which it previously was not suited.
Maintenance Capital Expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures are related to major overhauls of significant components of a compression package, such as the engine, electric motor, compressor and cooler, which return the components to a like-new condition, but do not modify the application for which the compression package was designed.
Projected Capital Expenditures. We expect approximately $260 million in growth capital expenditures in 2024, including $190 million for our pre-acquisition business. The $70 million increase is exclusively related to the addition of the TOPS’ backlog and the remaining payments to packagers at delivery. This backlog is substantially committed to customers.
Dividends
On October 24, 2024, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.175 per share of common stock to be paid on November 13, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 6, 2024. Any future determinations to pay cash dividends to our stockholders will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations and credit and loan agreements in effect at that time and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.
Sources of Cash
Credit Facility
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, our Credit Facility had an average debt balance of $268.7 million and $294.5 million, respectively. The weighted-average annual interest rate on the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility was 7.2% and 7.7% at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, there were $4.1 million letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility and the applicable margin on borrowings outstanding was 2.1%.
As of September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under our Credit Facility. Additionally, all undrawn capacity on our Credit Facility was available for borrowings as of September 30, 2024.
36
2032 Notes and 2027 Notes Tender Offer
On August 26, 2024, we completed a private offering of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due September 2032 and received net proceeds of $690.3 million after deducting issuance costs. In connection with the offering of the 2032 Notes, we completed a concurrent cash tender offer of $202.0 million. See Note 7 (“Long-Term Debt”) for further details.
July 2024 Equity Offering
On July 24, 2024, Archrock sold, pursuant to a public underwriting offering, 12,650,000 shares, including 1,650,000 shares pursuant to an over-allotment option. Archrock received net proceeds of $255.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. See Note 9 (“Stockholders’ Equity”) for further details.
Cash Flows
Our cash flows, as reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized below:

Net cash provided by (used in): |

Financing activities | 801,828 |
| (31,395) | |||
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 2,411 | $ | (1,084) |
Operating Activities
The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to increased cash inflows of $99.0 million from adjusted gross margin, excluding deferred revenue recognized in earnings and amortization of freight and mobilization charges, changes of $5.1 million in inventory as a result of improvement in the lead time for parts and of $2.4 million in accounts receivable due to increased cash receipts from customers. These increases were partially offset by changes of $17.9 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities due in part to accrued interest paid in connection with the 2027 Notes Tender Offer.
Investing Activities
The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to $869.1 million of cash paid in the TOPS Acquisition and a $30.5 million decrease in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment.
Financing Activities
The change from net cash used in financing activities to net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to $700.0 million of proceeds from the issuance of the 2032 Notes, $255.7 million of proceeds from the July 2024 Equity Offering and a $103.5 million increase in net borrowings of long-term debt, partially offset by $202.0 million for the 2027 Notes Tender Offer.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risks associated with changes in the variable interest rate of our Credit Facility. A 1% increase in the effective interest rate on our Credit Facility’s outstanding balance at September 30, 2024 would have resulted in an annual increase in our interest expense of $4.5 million.
37
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act included in this Form 10-Q as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2.
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that we are able to record, process, summarize and report the information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based on the evaluation, as of September 30, 2024, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and made known to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, on a timely basis to ensure that it is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
38
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, we believe that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and arbitration proceedings, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, including our ability to pay dividends.
39
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Other than the following items, there have been no material changes or updates to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Risks Related to the TOPS Acquisition
We may not be able to achieve the expected benefits of the TOPS Acquisition. We may also encounter significant difficulties in integrating TOPS.
We may not be able to achieve the expected benefits of the TOPS Acquisition and there can be no assurance that the TOPS Acquisition will be beneficial to us. We may not be able to integrate the assets acquired in the TOPS Acquisition without increases in costs or other difficulties. The integration of a business is a complex, costly and time-consuming process. As a result, we will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating our business practices and operations with the business practices and operations of TOPS. The integration process may disrupt our business and, if implemented ineffectively, would restrict the full realization of the anticipated benefits from the TOPS Acquisition. The failure to meet the challenges involved in integrating TOPS and to realize the anticipated benefits of the TOPS Acquisition could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects, as well as the market price of our common stock. The challenges of integrating the operations of acquired businesses include, among others:
● | difficulties with the integration of the business of TOPS and workforce following the TOPS Acquisition; |
● | conditions in the oil and natural gas industry, including the level of production of, demand for or price of oil or natural gas; |
● | our reduced profit margins or the loss of market share resulting from competition or the introduction of competing technologies by other companies; |
● | changes in economic or political conditions, including terrorism and legislative changes; |
● | the inherent risks associated with our operations, such as equipment defects, impairments, malfunctions and natural disasters; |
● | the risk that counterparties will not perform their obligations under our financial instruments; |
● | the financial condition of our customers; |
● | our ability to timely and cost-effectively obtain components necessary to conduct our business; |
● | employment and workforce factors, including our ability to hire, train and retain key employees; |
● | our ability to implement certain business and financial objectives, such as: |
● | winning profitable new business; |
● | growing our asset base and enhancing asset utilization; |
● | integrating acquired businesses; |
● | generating sufficient cash; and |
● | accessing the capital markets at an acceptable cost; |
● | liability related to the use of our services; |
● | changes in governmental safety, health, environmental or other regulations, which could require us to make significant expenditures; |
● | the effectiveness of our control environment, including the identification of control deficiencies; and |
● | our level of indebtedness and ability to fund our business. |
Many of these factors are outside of our control, and any one of them could result in increased costs and liabilities, decreases in the amount of expected revenue and earnings, and diversion of management’s time and energy, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the integration of the acquired business.
The market price of our common stock may decline as a result of the TOPS Acquisition if, among other things, the integration of the properties to be acquired in the TOPS Acquisition is unsuccessful or transaction costs related to the TOPS Acquisition are greater than expected. The market price of our common stock may decline if we do not achieve the perceived benefits of the TOPS Acquisition as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by us or by securities market participants or if the effect of TOPS Acquisition on our business, results of operations or financial condition or prospects is not consistent with our expectations or those of securities market participants.
40
Any acquisitions we complete, including the TOPS Acquisition, are subject to substantial risks that could reduce our ability to make distributions to our common stockholders.
Even if we do make acquisitions that we believe will increase the amount of cash available for distribution to our common stockholders, these acquisitions, including the TOPS Acquisition, may nevertheless result in a decrease in the amount of cash available for distribution to our common stockholders. Any acquisition, including the TOPS Acquisition, involves potential risks, including, among other things:
● | the assumption of unknown liabilities, losses or costs for which we are not indemnified or for which any indemnity we receive is inadequate; |
● | our inability to obtain satisfactory title to the assets we acquire; and |
● | the occurrence of other significant changes, such as impairment of long-lived assets, asset devaluation or restructuring charges. |
