CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, contained in this report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements usually relate to future events and anticipated revenues, earnings, cash flows or other aspects of our operations or operating results. Forward-looking statements are often identified by the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “may,” “intend,” “foresee,” “guidance,” “estimate,” “potential,” “outlook,” “plan,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “target,” “forecast” and similar expressions, including the negative thereof. The absence of these words, however, does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, beliefs and assumptions concerning future developments and business conditions and their potential effect on us. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we anticipate.
All of our forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are significant or beyond our control) and assumptions that could cause actual results to materially differ from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Known material factors that could cause actual results to materially differ from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements include those set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, which are summarized as follows:
•
Demand for our products and services, which is affected by changes in the price of, and demand for, crude oil and natural gas in domestic and international markets;
•
Our ability to successfully compete with other companies in our industry;
•
Our ability to develop and implement new technologies and services, as well as our ability to protect and maintain critical intellectual property assets;
•
Cost inflation and availability of raw materials;
•
Changes in federal, state and local legislation and regulations relating to oil and gas development and the potential for related litigation or restrictions on our customers;
•
Changes in environmental and health and safety laws and regulations which may increase our costs, limit the demand for our products and services or restrict our operations;
•
Our ability to successfully execute potential acquisitions;
•
Potential liabilities arising out of the installation or use of our products;
•
Continuing consolidation within our customers’ industry;
•
A failure of our information technology infrastructure or any significant breach of security;
•
Risks relating to our existing international operations and expansion into new geographical markets;
•
The impact of tariffs and other trade measures on our business;
•
Changes in domestic and foreign governmental public policies, risks associated with entry into emerging markets, changes in statutory tax rates and unanticipated outcomes with respect to tax audits;
•
Failure to attract, retain and develop personnel for key management;
•
Credit risks related to our customer base or the loss of significant customers;
•
Our ability to protect or obtain intellectual property rights;
•
Disruptions in the political, regulatory, economic and social conditions of the countries in which we conduct business;
•
Deterioration in future expected profitability or cash flows and its effect on our goodwill;
•
Risks relating to improper conduct by any of our employees, agents or business partners;
•
Fluctuations in currency markets worldwide;
•
The impact of natural disasters and other unusual weather conditions on our business; and
•
The impact of our indebtedness on our financial position and operating flexibility.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any of our forward-looking statements after the date they are made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1—
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SEPARATION
Apergy Corporation (“Apergy”) is a leading provider of highly engineered equipment and technologies that help companies drill for and produce oil and gas safely and efficiently around the world. Our products provide efficient functioning throughout the lifecycle of a well—from drilling to completion to production. We report our results of operations in the following reporting segments: Production & Automation Technologies and Drilling Technologies. Our Production & Automation Technologies segment offerings consist of artificial lift equipment and solutions, including rod pumping systems, electric submersible pump systems, progressive cavity pumps and drive systems and plunger lifts, as well as a full automation and digital offerings consisting of equipment, software and Industrial Internet of Things solutions for downhole monitoring, wellsite productivity enhancement and asset integrity management. Our Drilling Technologies segment offerings provide market leading polycrystalline diamond cutters and bearings that result in cost effective and efficient drilling.
Separation and Distribution
On April 18, 2018, the Dover Board of Directors approved the separation of entities conducting its upstream oil and gas energy business within Dover Corporation’s (“Dover”) Energy segment (the “Separation”) into an independent, publicly traded company named Apergy Corporation. In accordance with the separation and distribution agreement, the
two
companies were separated by Dover distributing to Dover’s stockholders all
77,339,828
shares of common stock of Apergy on May 9, 2018. Each Dover shareholder received one share of Apergy stock for every two shares of Dover stock held at the close of business on the record date of April 30, 2018. Following the Separation, Dover retained no ownership interest in Apergy, and each company, as of May 9, 2018, has separate public ownership, boards of directors and management.
Basis of Presentation
Prior to the Separation, our results of operations, financial position and cash flows were derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of Dover and reflect the combined historical results of operations, financial position and cash flows of certain Dover entities conducting its upstream oil and gas energy business within Dover’s Energy segment, including an allocated portion of Dover’s corporate costs. These financial statements have been presented as if such businesses had been combined for all periods prior to the Separation. All intercompany transactions and accounts within Dover were eliminated. The assets and liabilities were reflected on a historical cost basis since all of the assets and liabilities presented were wholly owned by Dover and were transferred within the Dover consolidated group. The statements of income also include expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically performed by Dover and not allocated to its operating segments, including corporate executive management, human resources, information technology, facilities, tax, shared services, finance and legal, including the costs of salaries, benefits and other related costs. These expense allocations were based on direct usage or benefit where identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenue, headcount or other measures. These pre-Separation combined financial statements may not include all of the actual expenses that would have been incurred had we been a stand-alone public company during the periods presented prior to the Separation and consequently may not reflect our results of operations, financial position and cash flows had we been a stand-alone public company during the periods presented prior to the Separation. Actual costs that would have been incurred if we had been a stand-alone public company would depend on a variety of factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure.
Prior to the Separation, transactions between Apergy and Dover, with the exception of transactions discussed in Note 3—
Related Party Transactions
, are reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as a financing activity in “Distributions to Dover Corporation, net.” Intercompany notes payable to Dover prior to the Separation were not settled in cash. Accordingly, no interest expense related to intercompany debt was presented in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the period presented prior to the Separation.
See Note 3—Related Party Transactions
for additional information.

All financial information presented after the Separation represents the consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Apergy. Accordingly, our results of operations and cash flows consist of the consolidated results of Apergy during the three months ended March 31, 2019, and the combined results of operations and cash flows during the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our balance sheets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, reflect the consolidated balances of Apergy. Our management believes the assumptions underlying these condensed consolidated financial statements, including the assumptions regarding the allocation of corporate expenses from Dover for periods prior to the Separation, are reasonable.
The legal transfer of the upstream oil and gas energy businesses from Dover to Apergy occurred on May 9, 2018; however, for ease of reference, and unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “Apergy Corporation,” “Apergy,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer (i) prior to the Separation, to the Apergy businesses, consisting of entities, assets and liabilities conducting the upstream oil and gas business within Dover’s Energy segment and (ii) after the Separation, to Apergy Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Apergy have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC pertaining to interim financial information. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from our estimates. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments unless otherwise specified) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and results of operations as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these financial statements may not be representative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.
Change in Accounting Estimate
Effective January 1, 2019, we changed our estimate of the useful lives surrounding certain equipment used within our leased asset program in our Production & Automation Technologies segment to better reflect the estimated periods in which the assets will remain in service. The estimated useful lives of the equipment, previously estimated at three years, was increased to five years. The effect of this change in estimate for the three months ended
March 31, 2019
, was a reduction in depreciation expense of
$2.0 million
, an increase in net income of
$1.5 million
, and an increase in basic and diluted earnings per share of
$0.02
per share.
Revisions and Reclassifications
We revised our previously issued financial statements for the three months ended
March 31, 2018
related to statement of cash flow presentation of capital leases. The effect of the revisions was an increase of
$0.2 million
to cash provided by operating activities, a
$0.8 million
decrease to cash required by investing activities and a
$1.0 million
increase to cash required by financing activities. Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

NOTE 2—
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “
Leases (Topic 842).
” This update requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a liability for future lease payments. Similar to past guidance, the update continues to differentiate between finance leases and operating leases; however, this distinction now primarily relates to differences in the manner of expense recognition over time and in the classification of lease payments in the statement of cash flows. Additionally, lessors will be required to classify leases as sales-type, finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of income recognition. Classification for both lessees and lessors is now based on an assessment of whether a lease contract is economically similar to the purchase of a non-financial asset from the perspective of control. The update also requires quantitative and qualitative disclosures to enable users to understand the amount, timing, and judgments related to leases and the related cash flows. We applied the provisions of this ASU to our lease contracts as of January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method of adoption. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reflected in accordance with our historical accounting policies. As of January 1, 2019, we recorded operating lease right-of-use assets of
$27.0 million
, operating lease liabilities of
$28.7 million
, and a reduction to retained earnings of
$1.7 million
as a result of the adoption of this guidance.
We have applied the following practical expedients and elections under the new standard:
•
We elected to utilize the package of transition practical expedients, which among other things, allowed us to carry forward our historical lease classifications for existing leases.
•
For contracts in which we are a lessee, we have elected to account for each lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component.
•
We elected to utilize the short term lease exemption for lease contracts with a term of less than 12 months. These contracts are excluded from the measurement of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis over their lease term.
Lessee accounting
—Lease liabilities are measured at the lease commencement date and are based on the present value of remaining payments contractually required under the contract. Payments that are variable in nature are excluded from the measurement of our lease liabilities and are recorded as an expense as incurred. Options to renew or extend a lease are included in the measurement of our lease liabilities only when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise these rights. In estimating the present value of our lease liabilities, payments are discounted at our incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”), which has been applied utilizing a portfolio approach. We utilized information publicly available from companies within our industry with similar credit profiles to construct a company-specific yield curve in order to estimate the rate of interest we would pay to borrow at various lease terms. At lease commencement, we recognize a lease right-of-use asset equal to our lease liability, adjusted for lease payments paid to the lessor prior to the lease commencement date, and any initial direct costs incurred. Operating lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, we amortize our right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the asset’s useful life or the lease term. Additionally, interest expense is recognized each period related to the accretion of our lease liabilities over their respective lease terms.
Lessor accounting
—Our lease contracts generally allow customers to rent equipment on a daily basis with no stated end date. Customers may return the equipment at any point subsequent to the lease commencement date without penalty. We account for these arrangements as a daily renewal option beginning on the lease commencement date, with the lease term determined as the period in which it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised. Based on our assessment of the lease classification criteria, our lease contracts have been classified as operating leases. Our lease contracts generally include lease and non-lease components for which each component’s standalone price is separately stated within the contract. Lease revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Non-lease revenue is recognized in accordance with our revenue recognition accounting policy. Assets in our lease program are reported in “Property, plant, and equipment, net” on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
See Note 10—Leases
for additional information related to our lease accounting.
See Note 17—Cash Flow Information
for additional information regarding the presentation of our leases within our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “
Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
.” The update amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which may result in earlier recognition of losses related to financial instruments. The guidance will be effective for us on January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “
Intangibles—Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract.
” The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. We are in the process of assessing the impacts the guidance will have on our financial statements.
NOTE 3—
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Prior to the Separation, Dover provided certain services to us including corporate executive management, human resources, information technology, facilities, tax, shared services, finance and legal services. Dover continued to provide us certain of these services on a temporary basis following the Separation under a transition services agreement. Under the transition services agreement,
Apergy paid a fee to Dover for services rendered under the transition services agreement, which fee was intended to allow Dover to recover all of its direct and indirect costs generally without profit. The transition services agreement was terminated on January 31, 2019, consistent with the initial term provided within the agreement.
Financial information presented prior to the Separation does not include all the expenses that would have been incurred had Apergy been a stand-alone public company. The corporate expenses allocated by Dover to these financial statements were
$5.8 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2018, which were recorded in “Selling, general and administrative expense” in the condensed consolidated statement of income.
For periods prior to the Separation, transactions between Apergy and Dover are reflected in “Distributions to Dover Corporation, net” in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as a financing activity. Revenue with Dover and its affiliates were not material for the periods presented. We recognized royalty expense of
$2.3 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2018, related to the use of Dover’s intellectual property and patents which was included in “Other expense, net” in the condensed consolidated statement of income. On April 1, 2018, patents and other intangibles owned by Dover related to our operations transferred to Apergy, and consequently, Apergy no longer incurred royalty charges related to these assets from Dover.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
On May 9, 2018,
77,339,828
shares of our common stock were distributed to Dover stockholders in conjunction with the Separation. See Note 1—Basis of Presentation and Separation for additional information. For comparative purposes, and to provide a more meaningful calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding, we have assumed the shares issued in conjunction with the Separation to be outstanding as of the beginning of each period prior to the Separation. In addition, we have assumed the potential dilutive securities outstanding as of May 8, 2018, were outstanding and fully dilutive in each of the periods with positive income prior to the Separation.
A reconciliation of the number of shares used for the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation was as follows:

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Guarantees and Indemnifications
We have provided indemnities in connection with sales of certain businesses and assets, including representations and warranties, covenants and related indemnities for environmental health and safety, tax and employment matters. We do not have any material liabilities recorded for these indemnifications and are not aware of any claims or other information that would give rise to material payments under such indemnities.
In connection with the Separation, we entered into agreements with Dover that govern the treatment between Dover and us for certain indemnification matters and litigation responsibility. Generally, the separation and distribution agreement provides for cross-indemnities principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of our business with us and to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of Dover’s business with Dover. The separation and distribution agreement also establishes procedures for handling claims subject to indemnification and related matters. In addition, pursuant to the tax matters agreement, we have agreed to indemnify Dover and its affiliates against any and all tax-related liabilities incurred by them relating to the Separation and/or certain related transactions to the extent caused by an acquisition of Apergy stock or assets or by any other action or failure to act undertaken by Apergy or its affiliates.
As of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, we had
$11.9 million
and
$3.6 million
, respectively, of outstanding letters of credit, surety bonds and guarantees which expire at various dates through 2024. These financial instruments are primarily maintained as security for insurance, warranty and other performance obligations. Generally, we would only be liable for the amount of these letters of credit and surety bonds in the event of default in the performance of our obligations, the probability of which we believe is remote.
Litigation
Environmental matters that are probable and estimable were not material as of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
. Environmental matters relate to ongoing remedial activities performed in cooperation with regulatory authorities.
We are a party to a number of legal proceedings incidental to our businesses. These proceedings primarily involve claims by private parties alleging injury arising out of use of our products, patent infringement, employment matters, and commercial disputes. We review the probable outcome of such proceedings, the costs and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred and accrued to-date, and the availability and extent of insurance coverage. We accrue a liability for legal matters that are probable and estimable, and as of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, these liabilities were not material. Management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation. However, management believes the most probable, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

LEASES
Lessee Accounting

Our real estate and vehicle leases will generally include
options to renew or extend the lease term at our discretion. These options are included in the measurement of our lease liabilities only when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise these rights.

Lessor Accounting
Lease revenue is primarily generated from our electric submersible pump (“ESP”) leased asset program within our Production & Automation Technologies segment. Our lease contracts generally allow customers to rent equipment on a daily basis with no stated end date. Customers may return the equipment at any point subsequent to the lease commencement date without penalty. We account for these arrangements as a daily renewal option beginning on the lease commencement date, with the lease term determined as the period in which it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised. The average length of these arrangements generally range from six months to nine months.

INCOME TAXES
Prior to the Separation, the operations of Apergy were included in Dover’s U.S. combined federal and state income tax returns. Income tax expense is presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements as if Apergy filed its own tax returns in each jurisdiction. These statements include tax losses and tax credits that may not reflect tax positions taken by Dover. In many cases, tax losses and tax credits generated by Apergy prior to the Separation have been utilized by Dover.
Our income tax provision reflected effective tax rates of
21.2%
and
22.6%
for the three months ended
March 31, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in the effective tax rates was primarily due to tax benefits for stock compensation and favorable U.S. state tax rate changes.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Prior to the Separation, certain of our employees participated in defined benefit and non-qualified plans sponsored by Dover, which included participants of other Dover subsidiaries. For periods prior to the Separation, we accounted for such plans as multi-employer benefit plans and recorded a proportionate share of the cost in our condensed consolidated statements of income.

EQUITY AND CASH INCENTIVE PROGRAM
Prior to the Separation, Dover granted share-based awards to its officers and other key employees, including certain Apergy individuals. All awards granted under the program consisted of Dover common shares and are not necessarily indicative of the results that Apergy would have experienced as a stand-alone public company for the periods presented prior to the Separation. Effective with the Separation, outstanding Dover share-based awards were converted to Apergy share-based awards, with the exception of outstanding Dover performance share awards that relate to performance periods ending after the Separation. Such performance share awards were cancelled effective with the Separation.
Stock-based compensation expense is reported within “Selling, general and administrative expense” in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Stock-based compensation expense relating to all stock-based incentive plans was as follows:

NOTE 14—
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
We had no outstanding derivative contracts as of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
. Other assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of
March 31, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, were not significant; thus, no fair value disclosures are presented.
The fair value, based on Level 1 quoted market rates, of our Senior Notes was approximately
$303.9 million
at
March 31, 2019
, as compared to the
$300.0 million
face value of the debt. The fair value, based on Level 2 quoted market rates, of our term loan facility was approximately
$343.1 million
at
March 31, 2019
, as compared to the
$345.0 million
face value of the debt.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable, as well as amounts included in other current assets and other current liabilities that meet the definition of financial instruments, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
Assets Held For Sale
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we classified our pressure vessel manufacturing business in our Production & Automated Technologies segment as held for sale. We recognized an impairment loss of
$1.7 million
during the three months ended March 31, 2019, which was recorded in “Selling, general and administrative expense” in the condensed consolidated statement of income, to adjust the carrying amount of the disposal group to fair value. The fair value was determined by a negotiated selling price through a non-binding expression of interest with a third party, a Level 3 input. As of March 31, 2019, we reclassified
$3.9 million
of assets to “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and
$3.9 million
of liabilities to “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Credit Risk
By their nature, financial instruments involve risk, including credit risk, for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables. We manage the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with what management believes are financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and credit limits, and monitoring counterparties’ financial condition. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty is limited to the amount drawn and outstanding on the financial instrument. Allowances for losses on trade receivables are established based on collectability assessments.

Operating lease additions include lease liabilities recognized at the time of adoption. Refer to Note 2—New Accounting Standards for additional information.
Lease program
Our ESP leased asset program is reported in our Production & Automation Technologies segment. At the time of purchase, assets are recorded to inventory and are transferred to property, plant, and equipment when a customer contracts for an asset under our lease program. During the three months ended
March 31, 2019
, we transferred
$19.8 million
of inventory into property, plant, and equipment as a result of assets entering our leased asset program, which is accounted for as a non-cash activity within our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.
Expenditures for assets that are expected to be placed into our leased asset program and with a useful life of less than one year are reported in “Leased assets and other” in the operating section of our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. Additionally, cash receipts related to the recovery of net book value from the sale of assets on lease are presented in “Lease assets and other” in the operating section of our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Expenditures for assets that are expected to be placed into our lease asset program and with a useful life of greater than one year are reported in “Capital expenditures” in the investing section of our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. During the three months ended
March 31, 2019
and
2018
, we purchased
$5.8 million
, and
$6.2 million
, respectively, of assets with a useful life of greater than one year that are expected to be placed into our leased asset program.
Sale of assets
In March 2019, we sold a property classified as held for sale. Net proceeds of
$2.1 million
were received upon the close of the transaction, resulting in a gain that was not material to the condensed consolidated statement of income during the three months ended
March 31, 2019
.

Separation and Distribution
On April 18, 2018, the Dover Board of Directors approved the separation of entities conducting its upstream oil and gas energy business within Dover Corporation’s (“Dover”) Energy segment (the “Separation”) into an independent, publicly traded company named Apergy Corporation. In accordance with the separation and distribution agreement, the two companies were separated by Dover distributing to Dover’s stockholders all 77,339,828 shares of common stock of Apergy on May 9, 2018. Each Dover shareholder received one share of Apergy stock for every two shares of Dover stock held at the close of business on the record date of April 30, 2018. Following the Separation, Dover retained no ownership interest in Apergy, and each company, as of May 9, 2018, has separate public ownership, boards of directors and management.
Basis of Presentation
Refer to Note 1—Basis of Presentation and Separation for information on the basis of presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Business Environment
Our business provides a broad range of technologies and products for the oil and gas drilling and production industry and, as a result, is substantially dependent upon activity levels in the oil and gas industry. Demand for our offerings is impacted by overall global demand for oil and gas, ongoing depletion rates of existing wells which produce oil and gas, and our customers’ willingness to invest in the development and production of oil and gas resources. Our customers determine their operating and capital budgets based primarily on current and future crude oil and natural gas prices, U.S. and worldwide rig count and U.S. well completions. Crude oil and natural gas prices are impacted by geopolitical, macroeconomic and local events and have historically been subject to substantial volatility and cyclicality. Future higher oil and gas prices typically translate into higher exploration and production budgets. Rig count, footage drilled and exploration and production investment by oil and gas operators have often been used as leading indicators for the level of drilling and development activity in the oil and gas sector.

Market Conditions and Outlook
Crude oil prices increased for the third consecutive month in March 2019 after a significant weakening during the fourth quarter of 2018. Increasing crude oil supply disruptions and voluntary reductions in oil production from OPEC members are among the recent price drivers in the crude oil market. In addition, positive manufacturing economic indicators in the United States and China are all factors which are likely to lead to global oil markets returning to more balanced conditions during the latter half of 2019. We expect low to modest growth in rig count, primarily from international rig counts, as well as footage drilled, in 2019 as the supply and demand for oil and gas become more balanced. We believe that demand for oil and gas will continue to grow in 2019 and commodity prices will remain constructive. We remain focused on (i) growing our ESP product line in the U.S. unconventional markets, (ii) capitalizing on well conversions to rod lift as well production declines, particularly in the Permian basin, (iii) further adoption of our “fit-for-purpose” digital products to improve our customers’ productivity and economics, (iv) continued innovation and advancement of our technology in diamond sciences, and (v) continued adoption of our diamond bearings offering for downhole applications. We believe our growth initiatives will allow us to meet our operational and financial growth targets in 2019.
Tariffs instituted by the U.S. government, and retaliatory tariffs and other trade restrictions by other countries, introduce uncertainty to our business since some of our products are impacted by the tariffs. We are actively working to mitigate the impacts of higher costs through various measures, including customer price increases, supplier price concessions and stronger supplier relationships, as well as operational productivity improvement initiatives.
Although risk remains that crude oil prices and activity levels could deteriorate from current levels, we believe the long-term outlook for our businesses is favorable. Increasing global demand for oil and gas, in combination with ongoing depletion of existing reservoirs, is expected to drive continued investment in the drilling and completion of new wells. In addition, productivity and efficiency are becoming increasingly important in the oil and gas industry as operators focus on improving per-well economics.

Revenue.
Revenue for the first quarter of 2019
increased
$18.6 million
, or
6.6%
, year-over-year driven by volume growth in both our Production & Automation Technologies and Drilling Technologies segments. Production & Automation Technologies’ revenue increased primarily due to higher sales volume associated with artificial lift and digital offerings as oil and gas markets continued to improve, particularly U.S. rig count and well completion activity. Drilling Technologies’ revenue increased primarily due to higher volumes driven by higher worldwide rig counts and footage drilled, combined with continued customer adoption of our diamond bearings technology.
Gross profit.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2019
increased
$11.9 million
, or
12.7%
, year-over-year, reflecting benefits of higher sales volumes in both our Production & Automation Technologies and Drilling Technologies segments, combined with the realization of productivity initiatives, partially offset by higher material costs.
Selling, general and administrative expense.
Selling, general and administrative expense in the first quarter of 2019
increased
$5.6 million
, or
9.4%
, year-over-year, primarily due to higher headcount in support of our growth initiatives, $1.8 million of stock compensation expense, $2.3 million in professional fees, and $1.7 million in impairment charges related to the held-for-sale classification of our pressure vessel manufacturing business in our Production & Automation Technologies segment.
Interest expense, net.
Interest expense, net in the first quarter of 2019 increased
$10.3 million
year-over-year due to issuances of our term loan facility and senior notes during the second quarter of 2018.
Other expense, net.
Other expense, net in the first quarter of 2019 decreased
$1.4 million
year-over-year due to the absence of the $2.3 million royalty charge from Dover, partially offset by a $0.5 million settlement loss in our pension plans incurred during the first quarter of 2019.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rates for the first quarter of 2019 and 2018 were 21.2% and 22.6%, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in the effective tax rates was primarily due to tax benefits for stock compensation and favorable U.S. state tax rate changes.

Revenue.
Production & Automation Technologies revenue
increased
$10.3 million
, or
4.8%
, year-over-year, driven by broad-based volume growth in our artificial lift offering, particularly from further penetration in the U.S. onshore electrical submersible pump market and international offerings. The increase in revenue was also due to increased customer spending as oil and gas markets improved, particularly U.S. rig count and well completion activity. Revenue from our digital portfolio increased primarily due to expansion of our products and increased customer adoption, led mostly by growth in our downhole monitoring and asset integrity management products.
Operating profit.
Production & Automation Technologies operating profit increased
$6.3 million
year-over-year. The increase in operating profit was primarily driven by higher revenue from growth in sales volume in both our artificial lift and digital offerings. The increase in operating profit was also due to productivity savings, partially offset by higher material costs related to aluminum and steel and a $1.7 million impairment charge related to the held-for-sale classification of our pressure vessel manufacturing business. Operating profit during the first quarter of 2019 benefitted from the absence of the royalty charge from Dover, which terminated on April 1, 2018.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
As of March 31, 2019, approximately 35% of our cash balances were held outside the United States primarily for working capital and operational support needs. All of our cash held outside the United States could be repatriated; however, we have not provided for foreign withholding taxes on our undistributed foreign earnings from jurisdictions which impose such taxes since we have determined that such earnings are indefinitely reinvested in those jurisdictions.
We have historically generated, and expect to continue to generate, positive cash flow from operations. We expect to meet the continuing funding requirements of our operations with cash generated by such operations and our revolving credit facility. Refer to “Capital Resources and Liquidity—Outlook” below for information related to our revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2019, we were in compliance with all restrictive covenants under our revolving credit facility.
Outlook
We expect to generate our liquidity and capital resources through operations and, when needed, through our revolving credit facility. We have
$244.9 million
of capacity available under our revolving credit facility that we expect to utilize if working capital needs temporarily increase. The volatility in credit, equity and commodity markets creates some uncertainty for our businesses. However, management believes, based on our current financial condition and current expectations of future market conditions, that we will meet our short- and long-term needs with a combination of cash on hand, cash generated from operations, our use of our revolving credit facility and access to capital markets.
Over the next year, we expect to fund our organic capital expenditure needs and reduce our leverage through earnings growth and further debt reduction. We continue to focus on improving our customer collection efforts and overall working capital efficiency to improve our cash flow position. In 2019 we project spending approximately 2.5 percent of revenue for infrastructure related capital expenditures and maintenance and an additional $20 million to $25 million for capital investments directed at expanding our portfolio of electric submersible pump leased assets.
We continue to evaluate acquisitions that meet our strategic priorities, expand our technology and product portfolio, improve our cost position or productivity, or broaden our geographic reach.
