1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

The Company combines industry-leading products and technologies, expertise in mechanical integrity (MI), non-destructive testing (NDT) and mechanical services and proprietary data analysis software to deliver a comprehensive portfolio of customized solutions, ranging from routine inspections to complex, plant-wide asset integrity assessments and management. These mission critical solutions enhance customers’ ability to extend the useful life of their assets, increase productivity, minimize repair costs, comply with governmental safety and environmental regulations, manage risk and avoid catastrophic disasters. The Company serves a global customer base of companies with asset-intensive infrastructure, including companies in the oil and gas, commercial aerospace and defense, fossil and nuclear power, alternative and renewable energy, public infrastructure, chemicals, transportation, primary metals and metalworking, pharmaceutical/biotechnology and food processing industries and research and engineering institutions.

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. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant volatility in domestic and international markets. There is on-going uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. and international economies. In addition, oil prices have dropped significantly, and airline traffic has experienced a significant decline. These declines were driven by the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and, in the case of the oil and gas market, other macroeconomic events such as the geopolitical tensions between OPEC and Russia, which also resulted in a significant drop in oil prices.

The COVID-19 pandemic and significant drop in oil prices has adversely affected the Company's workforce and operations, as well as the operations of its customers, suppliers and contractors. These negative factors have also resulted in significant volatility and uncertainty in the markets in which the Company operates. To successfully navigate through this unprecedented period, the Company continues to focus on the following key priorities:

•Ensuring the health and safety of its employees and those of its customers and suppliers;

•Maintaining business continuity and financial strength and stability; and

•Serving its customers as they provide essential products and services to the world.

While the Company cannot fully assess the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic or the significant drop in oil prices will have on its operations at this time, there are certain impacts that the Company has identified:

•The financial market volatility that resulted from COVID-19 and the drop in oil prices required the Company to reassess the goodwill it had recorded related to various prior acquisitions under the guidance of ASC 350. The Company determined that the fair values of various reporting units were less than their carrying values (including goodwill). As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge related to goodwill of approximately $77.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 8–Goodwill.

•This same financial market volatility required the Company to reassess the tangible and intangible assets recorded under the guidance of ASC 360. The Company determined that the fair values of certain asset groups were less than their carrying values (excluding goodwill). As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges related to intangible assets of approximately $28.8 million and a right-of-use asset of approximately $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 9–Intangible Assets and Note 13–Leases.

•As of March 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the terms of its $300 million revolving line of credit and $100 million senior secured term loan A facility provided by its banking group. Given the uncertainty of the Company's projected cash flows as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the drop in oil prices, the Company entered into an amendment on May 15, 2020 with its banking group that, among other provisions, modifies

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(tabular dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)

the current financial covenants. The Company believes that it is probable, based on the amended covenants, that the Company will be able to comply with the amended covenants and fulfil its obligations under the credit agreement; however, such matters cannot be predicted with certainty. See Note 11–Long-Term Debt.

To respond to the economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the drop in oil prices, the Company has initiated a cost reduction and efficiency program. All named executive officers of the Company have voluntarily taken temporary salary reductions ranging from 25% to 45% of their base salary. In addition, the Company instituted a reduction for its other salaried employees, at lower percentages, and suspended the Company's voluntary match under the Company sponsored savings plans for its U.S. and Canadian employees. These reductions are for the second quarter of 2020. If the economic downturn continues beyond the second quarter and there is no sign of economic recovery for the Company or its industry, the Company will assess whether to change these cost saving measures. In addition, the Company’s non-employee directors voluntarily agreed to a $3,750 reduction in their second quarter 2020 payment.

The Company is currently unable to predict with certainty the overall impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and drop in oil prices may have on its business, results of operations, or liquidity. The Company may be impacted by the pandemic and drop in oil prices in other ways which the Company cannot yet determine. The Company will continue to monitor market conditions and respond accordingly.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods of the years ending December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Certain items included in these statements are based on management’s estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the 2019 Annual Report.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mistras Group, Inc. and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries. For subsidiaries in which the Company’s ownership interest is less than 100%, the non-controlling interests are reported in stockholders’ equity in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The non-controlling interests in net results, net of tax, is classified separately in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications did not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations as previously reported.

Customers

For each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, no customer represented 10% or more of the Company's revenue.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 1–Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices in the 2019 Annual Report. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions, including among other things, those related to revenue recognition, long-lived assets, goodwill and acquisitions. Since the date of the 2019 Annual Report, there have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of a deferred income tax asset will not be realized. Financial accounting standards prescribe a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, measurement, and classification of amounts relating to uncertain tax positions, accounting for and disclosure of interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosures required. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions are recognized as incurred within “provision for income taxes” in the consolidated statements of income. ASC 740-270, Income Taxes-Interim Reporting, requires the Company to use an estimated annual effective tax rate (EAETR) for calculating its tax provision for interim periods. At each interim period, the Company is required, with certain exceptions and limitations, to estimate its forecasted worldwide EAETR, which is applied to the Company's year-to-date consolidated ordinary income or loss resulting in the year-to-date income tax provision before considering items not included in ordinary income or loss. The tax effects of events or transactions not considered to represent ordinary income or loss are accounted for discretely in the interim period and are not included in the determination of the EAETR.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act, among other things, includes tax provisions relating to deferment of employer’s social security payments, net operating loss utilization and carryback periods, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property (QIP). The ultimate impact of the CARES Act may differ from the estimated impact the Company recorded during this interim period due to changes in interpretations and guidance that may be issued and actions the Company may take in response to the CARES Act. The Company will continue to assess the impact that various provisions will have on its business.

The Company continues to evaluate its deferred tax assets each period to determine if a valuation allowance is required based on whether it is more likely than not that some portion of these deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of March 31, 2020, management concluded that it is more likely than not that a substantial portion of the Company's deferred tax assets will be realized. As part of the Company's analysis, it considered both positive and negative factors that impact profitability and whether those factors would lead to a change in the estimate of the Company's deferred tax assets that may be realized in the future. In the current period, the Company began to see impacts on its business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company will continue to monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business, and any sustained or prolonged reductions in future earnings periods may change the Company's conclusions on whether it is more likely than not to realize portions of the Company's deferred tax assets.

The Company’s effective income tax rate was approximately 14% and 33% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was lower than the statutory rate primarily due to impairments recorded during the interim period for which no income tax benefits will be realized by us. However, this unfavorable impact on the Company's effective income tax rate was partially offset by income tax benefits of the CARES Act. The CARES Act provides a five-year carryback of net operating losses generated in years 2018-2020. As the statutory federal income tax rate applicable to certain years within the carryback period is 35%, carryback to those years of the Company's estimated 2020 annual tax loss provides a tax benefit in excess of the current federal statutory rate of 21%, resulting in an increased income tax benefit. The Company projects that the income tax effects of the CARES Act will result in additional income tax benefit recognized throughout the 2020 tax year as part of the estimated annual effective tax rate, and a cash refund in 2021 of taxes paid in prior years. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was higher than the statutory rate due to the impact of discrete items, the global intangible low-taxes income (GILTI), and executive compensation, and other provisions resulting from the December 22, 2017 passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and foreign tax rates different than statutory rates in the U.S.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities related to outside basis differences. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2021, with certain amendments applied prospectively and others requiring retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. If early adoption is elected, all changes as a result of the standard must be adopted in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

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 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. 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. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

2. Revenue

The majority of the Company's revenues are derived from providing services on a time and material basis and are short-term in nature. The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Performance Obligations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in ASC Topic 606. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The majority of the Company's contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and is, therefore, not distinct. The Company provides highly integrated and bundled inspection services to its customers. Some of the Company's contracts have multiple performance obligations, most commonly due to the contract providing both goods and services. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using its best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. The primary method used to estimate standalone selling price is a relative selling price based on price lists.

Contract modifications are not routine in the performance of the Company contracts. Generally, when contracts are modified, the modification is to account for changes in scope to the goods and services that are provided. In most instances, contract modifications are for goods or services that are distinct, and, therefore, are accounted for as a separate contract.

The Company's performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses or at a point in time. The majority of the Company's revenue recognized over time as work progresses is related to its service deliverables, which includes providing testing, inspection and mechanical services to the Company's customers. Revenue is recognized over time based on time and material incurred to date which best portrays the transfer of control to the customer. The Company also utilizes an available practical expedient that provides for revenue to be recognized in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the entity’s performance completed to date. Fixed fee arrangements are determined based on expected labor, material, and overhead to be consumed on fulfillment of such services. Revenue is recognized on a cost-to-cost method tracked on an input basis.

The majority of the Company's revenue recognized at a point in time is related to product sales when the customer obtains control of the asset, which is generally upon shipment to the customer. Contract costs include labor, material and overhead.

The Company expects any significant remaining performance obligations to be satisfied within one year.

Contract Estimates

The majority of the Company's revenues are short-term in nature. The Company has many master service agreements (MSAs) that specify an overall framework and contract terms when the Company and customers agree upon services or products to be provided. The actual contracting to provide services or furnish products is triggered by a work order, purchase order, or some similar document issued pursuant to a MSA which sets forth the scope of services and/or identifies the products to be provided. From time-to-time, the Company may enter into long-term contracts, which can range from several months to several years. Revenue on such long-term contracts is recognized as work is performed based on total costs incurred to date in relation to the total estimated costs for the performance of the contract at completion. This includes contract estimates of costs to be incurred for the performance of the contract. Cost estimation is based upon the professional knowledge and experience of the Company's project managers, engineers and financial professionals. Factors that are considered in estimating the work to be completed include the availability of materials, the effect of any delays in the Company's project performance and the recoverability of any claims. Whenever revisions of estimates, contract costs and/or contract values indicate that the contract costs will exceed estimated revenues, thus creating a loss, a provision for the total estimated loss is recorded in that period.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts are generally billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, generally at periodic intervals (e.g., weekly, bi-weekly or monthly). Generally, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. However, the Company sometimes receives advances or deposits from its customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. These assets and liabilities are aggregated on an individual contract basis and reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of each reporting period within accounts receivables or accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of such year was $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. Changes in the contract asset and liability balances during these periods were not materially impacted by any other factors. The Company has elected to utilize a practical expedient to expense incremental costs incurred related to obtaining a contract. The Company’s expenses are expected to be amortized over a period less than one year.

3. Share-Based Compensation

The Company has share-based incentive awards outstanding to its eligible employees and non-employee directors under two equity incentive plans: (i) the 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2009 Plan") and (ii) the 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan"). No further awards may be granted under the 2009 Plan, although awards granted under the 2009 Plan remain outstanding in accordance with their terms. Awards granted under the 2016 Plan may be in the form of stock options, restricted stock units and other forms of share-based incentives, including performance restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and deferred stock rights.

Stock Options

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not recognize any share-based compensation expense related to stock option awards, as all outstanding stock options awards were then already fully vested. No unrecognized compensation costs remained related to stock option awards as of March 31, 2020.

Restricted Stock Unit Awards

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company recognized share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock unit awards of $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, there was $5.8 million of unrecognized compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, related to restricted stock unit awards, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.2 years. Upon vesting, restricted stock units are generally net share-settled to cover the required withholding tax and the remaining amount is converted into an equivalent number of shares of common stock.

A summary of the vesting activity of restricted stock unit awards, with the respective fair value of the awards, is as follows:

Performance Restricted Stock Units

The Company maintains Performance Restricted Stock Units (PRSUs) that have been granted to select executives and senior officers whose ultimate payout is based on the Company’s performance over a one-year period based on specific metrics approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. For 2019, three metrics, as defined: (1) Operating Income, (2) Adjusted EBITDAS (defined as net income attributable to MISTRAS Group, Inc. plus: interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense and certain acquisition related costs (including transaction due diligence costs and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration), foreign exchange (gain) loss and, if applicable, certain special items which are noted) and (3) Revenue. There also is a discretionary portion of the PRSUs based on individual performance, granted at the discretion of the Compensation Committee (Discretionary PRSUs). PRSUs and Discretionary PRSUs generally vest ratably on each of the first four anniversary dates upon completion of the performance period, for a total requisite service period of up to five years and have no dividend rights.

PRSUs are equity-classified and compensation costs are initially measured using the fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant, assuming that the target performance conditions will be achieved. Compensation costs related to the PRSUs are subsequently adjusted for changes in the expected outcomes of the performance conditions.

Discretionary PRSUs are liability-classified and adjusted to fair value (with a corresponding adjustment to compensation expense) based upon the targeted number of shares to be awarded and the fair value of the underlying stock each reporting period until approved by the Compensation Committee, at which point they are equity-classified.

A summary of the Company's PRSU activity is as follows:


	Three months ended March 31,
	2020				2019
	Units	Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value		Units	Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Outstanding at beginning of period:	260	$	16.77	277	$	17.80
Granted	—	$	—	—	$	—
Performance condition adjustments	1	$	13.63	(3)	$	18.46
Released	(19)	$	19.46	(17)	$	20.22
Forfeited	—	$	—	—	$	—
Outstanding at end of period:	242	$	15.42	257	$	17.35

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Compensation Committee approved the final calculation of the award metrics for calendar year 2019 and calendar year 2018, respectively. As a result, the calendar year 2019 PRSUs increased by approximately 1,000 units and the calendar year 2018 PRSUs decreased by approximately 3,000 units.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company recognized aggregate share-based compensation expense related to the awards described above of approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. At March 31, 2020, there was $1.2 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to approximately 242,000 non-vested PRSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

For 2020, the Compensation Committee is changing the criteria to four metrics with no discretionary portion. Revenue and Adjusted EBITDAS are being retained, and two additional metrics, free cash flow as a percentage of revenue and return on average book equity, will replace Operating Income. These two newly-added metrics are relative metrics, the performance of which are based upon how the Company performs relative to a peer group. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the health and economic upheaval it has created, no targets have been established yet for the Revenue and Adjusted EBITDAS metrics for 2020. In addition, the Company does not have sufficient shares remaining in the 2016 Plan for the 2020 target grants, so no grants will be made unless and until the Company's shareholders approve a proposed amendment to the 2016 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the plan. Approval of the proposed amendment is being sought at the 2020 annual shareholders meeting scheduled for May 19, 2020. As such, no shares have been granted, in the first quarter

of 2020, as noted in the table above. The Company expects these awards to be finalized and approved by its Compensation Committee during the second quarter of 2020 if shareholders approve the proposed amendment to the 2016 Plan.

4. Earnings (loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of (1) the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, and (2) the dilutive effect of assumed conversion of equity awards using the treasury stock method. With respect to the number of weighted-average shares outstanding (denominator), diluted shares reflects: (i) the exercise of options to acquire common stock to the extent that the options’ exercise prices are less than the average market price of common shares during the period and (ii) the pro forma vesting of restricted stock units.

The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share:


	Three months ended

⁽²⁾ For the three months ended March 31, 2019, 212 and 168 shares related to stock options and restricted stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS due to the net loss for the period.

5. Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions

The Company did not complete any acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2020 or 2019, respectively. During September 2019, the Company completed one acquisition that provides pipeline integrity management software and services to energy transportation companies. The Company acquired all the equity interest of the acquiree in exchange for aggregate consideration of $4.4 million in cash, contingent consideration of up to $4.3 million to be earned based upon the acquired business achieving specific performance metrics over the initial three years of operations from the acquisition date and working capital adjustments. The goodwill recorded is primarily attributable to expected synergies and is generally fully deductible for

The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on a reporting unit basis on October 1 of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company’s market capitalization declined significantly compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company’s closing stock price was $4.26 on March 31, 2020. Over the same period, the equity value of the Company’s peer group, and the overall U.S. stock market also declined significantly amid market volatility. In addition, oil prices have dropped significantly. These declines were driven by the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and other macroeconomic events such as the geopolitical tensions between OPEC and Russia. Based on these factors, the Company concluded that multiple triggering events occurred and, accordingly, an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test was performed for each reporting unit as of March 31, 2020 (“testing date”). The Company also performed an analysis to determine any impairment of long-lived assets (see Note 9–Intangible assets) as well based on the triggering events noted above.

In performing the interim quantitative goodwill impairment test and consistent with prior practice, the Company determined the fair value of each of the reporting units using a combination of the income approach and the market approach by assessing each of these valuation methodologies based upon availability and relevance of comparable company data and determining the appropriate weighting.

Under the income approach, the fair value for each of the reporting units was determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate. The Company used internal forecasts, updated for recent events, to estimate future cash flows with cash flows beyond the specific operating plans estimated using a terminal value calculation, which incorporates historical and forecasted trends, including an estimate of long-term future growth rates, based on the Company’s most recent views of the long-term outlook for each reporting unit. The internal forecasts include assumptions about future market recovery, including the expected demand for the Company’s goods and services. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved in making estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ from those assumed in the forecasts. The Company derived the discount rates using a capital asset pricing model and analyzing published rates for industries relevant to the reporting units to estimate the cost of equity financing. The Company used discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainties inherent in the respective businesses and in the internally developed forecasts, updated for recent events.

The market approach valuations were derived from metrics of publicly traded companies or historically completed transactions of comparable businesses. The selection of comparable businesses was based on the markets in which the reporting units operate considering risk profiles, size, geography, and diversity of products and services.

Based upon the results of the interim quantitative goodwill impairment test, the Company recorded an aggregate impairment charge of $77.1 million, which included $57.2 million in the services reporting unit within the Services segment, $19.3 million in the European reporting unit and $0.6 million in the Brazilian reporting unit, both within the International segment. The impairment was calculated based on the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value of the reporting units and are included in Impairment charges on the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Any significant adverse changes in future periods to the Company’s internal forecasts or the external market conditions, if any, could reasonably be expected to negatively affect its key assumptions and may result in future goodwill impairment charges which could be material.

The Company's cumulative goodwill impairment as of March 31, 2020 was $100.2 million, of which $57.2 million related to the Services segment, $29.8 million related to the International segment and $13.2 million related to the Products and Systems segment. The Company's cumulative goodwill impairment as of December 31, 2019 was $23.1 million, of which $13.2 million related to the Products and Systems segment and $9.9 million related to the International segment.

9. Intangible Assets

The gross amount, accumulated amortization and net carrying amount of intangible assets were as follows:


		March 31, 2020														December 31, 2019
	Useful Life (Years)	Gross Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Impairment		Net Carrying Amount		Gross Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount

Customer relationships	5-18	$	111,825	$	(68,262)	$	(2,206)	$	41,357	$	113,861	$	(67,853)	$	46,008
Software/Technology	3-15	73,493		(20,220)		(25,874)		27,399		77,914		(18,756)		59,158
Covenants not to compete	2-5	12,624		(11,662)		(212)		750		12,795		(11,630)		1,165
Other	2-12	10,768		(7,753)		(502)		2,513		10,813		(7,607)		3,206
Total		$	208,710	$	(107,897)	$	(28,794)	$	72,019	$	215,383	$	(105,846)	$	109,537

As described in Note 8–Goodwill, there were negative market indicators that were determined to be triggering events indicating a potential impairment of certain long-lived assets within asset groups in the Services, International, Products and Corporate segments. The asset groups are groupings of assets and liabilities determined at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. Recoverability testing indicated that certain intangible assets and right of use assets (See Note 13–Leases) were potentially impaired. For asset groups that required an impairment measurement, similar to the valuations performed to determine the goodwill impairment, the Company used income and market approaches to estimate the fair value of the long-lived assets, which requires significant judgment in evaluation of the useful lives of the assets, economic and industry trends, estimated future cash flows, discount rates, and other factors. The result of the analysis was an aggregate impairment charge of $28.8 million, which included $25.9 million to software/technology, $2.2 million to customer relationships, $0.5 million to other intangibles and $0.2 million to covenants not to compete, all of which are in the Services reporting unit within the Services segment and are included in Impairment charges on the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 was approximately $3.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively.

Senior Credit Facility

The Company's revolving credit agreement with its banking group ("Credit Agreement") provides the Company with a $300 million revolving line of credit. In addition, the Credit Agreement provides the Company with a $100 million senior secured term loan A facility. Both the revolving line of credit and the term loan A facility under the Credit Agreement have a maturity date of December 12, 2023. The Company may borrow up to $100 million in non-U.S. Dollar currencies and use up to $20 million of the credit limit for the issuance of letters of credit. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had borrowings of $250.3 million and a total of $3.7 million of letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The Company has capitalized costs associated with debt modifications of $1.3 million as of March 31, 2020, which is included in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus an applicable LIBOR margin ranging from 1% to 2.25%, or a base rate less a margin of 1.25% to 0.375%, at the option of the Company, based upon the Company’s Funded Debt Leverage Ratio. Funded Debt Leverage Ratio is generally the ratio of (1) all outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money and other interest-bearing indebtedness as of the date of determination to (2) EBITDA (which is (a) net income, less (b) income (or plus loss) from discontinued operations and extraordinary items, plus (c) income tax expenses, plus (d) interest expense, plus (e) depreciation, depletion, and amortization (including non-cash loss on retirement of assets), plus (f) stock compensation expense, less (g) cash expense related to stock compensation, plus (h) certain amounts of EBITDA of acquired business for the prior twelve months, plus (i) certain expenses related to the closing of the Credit Agreement, plus (j) non-cash expenses which do not (in the current or any future period) represent a cash item (excluding non-cash gains which increase net income), plus (k) non-recurring charges (not to exceed $10.0 million in the four consecutive quarters immediately preceding the date of determination) for items such as severance, lease termination charges, asset write-offs and litigation settlements paid, and multi-employer pension plan withdrawal liabilities, all determined for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters immediately preceding the date of determination of EBITDA. The Company has the benefit of the lowest margin if its Funded Debt Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 1.0 to 1, and the margin increases as the ratio increases, to the maximum margin if the ratio is greater than 3.75 to 1. The Company will also bear additional costs for market disruption, regulatory changes effecting the lenders’ funding costs, and default pricing of an additional 2% interest rate margin on any amounts not paid when due. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and is guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring that the Company maintain a Funded Debt Leverage Ratio of no greater than 4.25 to 1 through December 31, 2018, reducing to a maximum permitted ratio of 4.0 to 1 as of March 31, 2019 through June 30, 2020, a maximum permitted ratio of 3.75 to 1 as of September 30, 2020 and a maximum permitted ratio of 3.50 to 1 as of December 31, 2020 and all quarterly periods thereafter, and a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 1.25 to 1. Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio means the ratio, as of any date of determination, of (a) (i) EBITDA for the 12 month period immediately preceding the date of determination, taken together as one accounting period, less (ii) the aggregate amount of all capital expenditures made during the period, less (iii) taxes paid in cash during the period, less (iv) Restricted Payments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) paid in cash during the period, -to- (b) the sum of (i) all interest, premium payments, debt discount, fees, charges and related expenses of the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with borrowed money (including capitalized interest) or in connection with the deferred purchase price of assets, in each case, to the extent treated as interest in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and to the extent paid in cash during the period, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all redemptions or similar acquisitions for value of outstanding debt for borrowed money or

regularly scheduled principal payments made during the period, but excluding any such payments to the extent refinanced through the incurrence of additional Indebtedness otherwise expressly permitted under the Credit Agreement, and (iii) payments made during the period under all leases that have been or should be, in accordance with GAAP as in effect for the Company's 2017 audited financial statement, recorded as capitalized leases. The Company can elect to increase the maximum Funded Debt Leverage Ratio to 4.0 to 1 for four fiscal quarters immediately following the fiscal quarter in which the Company acquires another business, with the maximum permitted ratio reducing back to 3.5 to 1 in the fifth fiscal quarter following such acquisition. The Company can make this election twice during the term of the Credit Agreement, but prior to the first time the Company makes an election to increase the Funded Debt Leverage Ratio to 4.0 to 1 in connection with an acquisition, the Company must obtain the consent of lenders (in their sole discretion) holding at least 66-2/3% of the credit exposure under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement also limits the Company’s ability to, among other things, create liens, make investments, incur more indebtedness, merge or consolidate, make dispositions of property, pay dividends and make distributions to stockholders or repurchase its stock, enter into a new line of business, enter into transactions with affiliates and enter into burdensome agreements. The Credit Agreement does not limit the Company’s ability to acquire other businesses or companies except that for acquisitions completed prior to April 1, 2021, (a) the aggregate consideration for all acquisitions made on or after March 9, 2020 and prior to April 1, 2021 cannot exceed $5.0 million, and (b) prior to the first of any such acquisition, the Company must have demonstrated a Funded Debt Leverage Ratio of not greater than 3.0 to 1.0 for two consecutive fiscal quarters immediately prior to such acquisition. The acquired business or company must be in the Company's line of business and, if the acquired business is a separate subsidiary, in certain circumstances the lenders will receive the benefit of a guaranty of the subsidiary and liens on its assets and a pledge of its stock.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and will continuously monitor its compliance with the covenants contained in its Credit Agreement.

Subsequent Event

On May 15, 2020, the Company entered into the Third Amendment (the “Amendment”), dated May 15, 2020, to the Credit Agreement, dated December 13, 2018, with its banking group under the Credit Agreement. Due to the uncertain impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant drop in oil prices, the Company determined that it would not meet the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement for upcoming quarters. Accordingly, the Amendment modifies the financial covenants to provide for: i) elimination of the Funded Debt Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the quarters ended June 30 and September 30, 2020 and increases the Funded Debt Leverage ratio to no greater than 5.25 to 1 beginning for the quarter ending December 31, 2020 and decreasing each successive quarter to no greater than 3.50 to 1 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and all quarterly periods thereafter; ii) an elimination of the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a decrease to 1.0 to 1 for the quarter ending March 31, 2021 and returning to 1.25 to 1 for the quarter ending June 30, 2021 and thereafter; iii) the addition of a minimum EBITDA covenant requiring $3.44 million for the three months ending June 30, 2020, $24.25 million for the six months ending September 30, 2020, and $38.55 million for the nine months ending December 31, 2020, with no requirement thereafter; and iv) the addition of a minimum Liquidity (as defined in the Amendment) covenant of not less than $20.0 million at all times through September 30, 2020 and ceasing thereafter. In addition, the Amendment reduced the revolving line of credit to $175.0 million, set a LIBOR floor of 1.0% applicable to all LIBOR loans, and increased the LIBOR margin range to 1.50% to 4.15%, in addition to certain other modifications of the Credit Agreement. The Amendment also requires that the Company promptly prepay the outstanding amount under the revolving credit facility in an amount equal to the difference between (a) the aggregate sum of cash and cash equivalents of the Company and its subsidiaries held in the United States minus (b) $10.0 million if, for a period of two (2) consecutive business days, (i) the outstanding amount under the revolving credit facility exceeds $75.0 million and (ii) the such cash and cash equivalents exceeds $10.0 million.

The Amendment also provides that the Company may not make any acquisitions prior to June 30, 2021, and thereafter only if the Company's Funded Debt Leverage Ratio is less than 2.50 to 1 and after giving effect to such acquisition, its pro forma Funded Debt Leverage Ratio will not be greater than 3.25 to 1.

(tabular dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)

The Company believes that it is probable, based on the amended covenants, that the Company will be able to comply with the

financial covenants in the Credit Agreement as modified by the Amendment and that sufficient credit remains available under the Credit Agreement to meet the Company's liquidity needs. However, due to the uncertainties being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant drop in oil prices, such matters cannot be predicted with certainty.

Other debt

The Company's other debt includes local bank financing provided at the local subsidiary level used to support working capital requirements and fund capital expenditures. At March 31, 2020, there was an aggregate of approximately $7.8 million outstanding, payable at various times through 2029. Monthly payments range from $1 thousand to $17 thousand and interest rates range from 0.4% to 3.5%.

12. Fair Value Measurements

The Company performs fair value measurements in accordance with the guidance provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 defines fair value as 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.

Financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities was estimated using a discounted cash flow technique with significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 fair value measurement as defined in ASC 820. The significant inputs in the Level 3 measurement not supported by market activity include the probability assessments of expected future cash flows related to the acquisitions, appropriately discounted considering the uncertainties associated with the obligation, and as calculated in accordance with the terms of the applicable acquisition agreements.

The following table represents the changes in the fair value of Level 3 contingent consideration:


	Three months ended March 31,
	2020		2019
Beginning balance	$	3,216	$	2,365

Payments	(1,303)		—
Accretion of liability	11		44
Revaluation	(553)		261
Foreign currency translation	(62)		29
Ending balance	$	1,309	$	2,699

Financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The Company has evaluated current market conditions and borrower credit quality and has determined that the carrying value of its long-term debt approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s notes payable and capital lease obligations approximates their carrying amounts based on anticipated interest rates which management believes would currently be available to the Company for similar issuances of debt.

13. Leases

The Company leases certain office and operating facilities, machinery, equipment, and vehicles. Concurrent with the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized a right-of-use (ROU) asset and lease liability based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term for each lease agreement. The Company has elected not to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability for leases with terms of 12 months or less and will continue to recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has leases with both lease components and non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, utilities, or other repairs and maintenance. For all asset classes, the Company decided to utilize the practical expedient to include both fixed lease components and fixed non-lease components in calculating the ROU asset and lease liability. The Company identified variable lease payments, such as maintenance payments based on actual activities performed or costs incurred, at lease commencement by assessing the nature of the payment provisions, including whether the payments are subject to a minimum charge. Many of the Company's leases include one or more options to renew. When it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option, the Company will include the impact of the option in the lease term for purposes of determining future lease payments. As the Company is unable to determine the discount rate implicit in its lease agreements, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate on the commencement date to calculate the present value of future payments.

The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets includes the following related to operating leases:


Leases	Classification	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Assets
ROU assets	Other Assets	$	44,669	$	45,817

Liabilities
ROU - current	Accrued and other current liabilities	$	9,947	$	10,133
ROU liability - long-term	Other liabilities	35,927		36,750
Total ROU liabilities		$	45,874	$	46,883

Included within the balance of operating leases is a lease for the Company’s headquarters which is with a related party. The ROU liability for this facility was approximately $4.3 million and $4.5 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Total rent payments for this facility were approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively.

The total ROU assets attributable to finance leases were approximately $17.9 million and $19.2 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which is included in Property, plant, and equipment, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As described in Note 9–Intangible Assets, the Company performed an analysis to determine whether there was any impairment of long-lived assets, which included the ROU assets, within the Services, International, and Products and Systems operating segments as well as Corporate. The result of the analysis was a $0.2 million impairment of a ROU asset in an asset group within the Services segment which is included in Impairment charges on the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings and Government Investigations

The Company is subject to periodic lawsuits, investigations and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits, investigations and claims asserted against it. Except possibly for certain of the matters described below, the Company does not believe that any currently pending legal proceeding to which the Company is a party will have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. The costs of defense and amounts that may be recovered against the Company may be covered by insurance for certain matters.

Litigation and Commercial Claims

The Company was contracted to perform inspections of welds on various pipeline projects in Texas for a customer. As of March 31, 2020, approximately $1.4 million of past due receivables were outstanding from this customer. The customer provided the Company with notice in December 2019, alleging that the Company’s inspection of 66 welds (out of approximately 16,000 welds inspected) were not in compliance with the contract, claimed approximately $7.6 million in damages, and requested that the Company pay these damages and any other damages incurred. The Company has filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Bexar County, Texas, 37th Judicial District, in an action captioned Mistras Group, Inc. v. Epic Y-Grade Pipeline LP, to recover the $1.4 million and other amounts due to the Company. The customer filed a counterclaim, alleging breach of contract and seeking recovery of its alleged damages. The Company believes that any successful claim by the customer regarding the Company’s workmanship will be covered by insurance, subject to payment of a deductible. At this time, the Company is unable to determine whether it has any liability in connection with this matter and if so, the amount or range of any such liability, and accordingly, has not established any accruals for this matter.

Pension Related Contingencies

The workforce of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are unionized and the terms of employment for these workers are governed by collective bargaining agreements, or CBAs. Under these CBAs, the Company’s subsidiaries are required to contribute to the national pension funds for the unions representing these employees, which are multi-employer pension plans. The Company was notified that a significant project was awarded to another contractor in January 2018, and as a result, one of the Company’s subsidiaries experienced a significant reduction in the number of its employees covered by one of the CBAs. Under certain circumstances, such a reduction in the number of employees participating in multi-employer pension plans pursuant to this CBA could result in a complete or partial withdrawal liability to these multi-employer pension plans under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). Management explored options to retain a level of union work that would avoid withdrawal liability to the pension plans, but concluded during the third quarter of 2018 that the Company's subsidiaries probably would not obtain sufficient union work to avoid withdrawal liability. Therefore, the Company determined that it is probable that its subsidiary would incur a withdrawal liability related to these multi-employer pension plans. Accordingly, the Company recorded a charge of $5.9 million during 2018 and $0.8 million during 2019 for this potential withdrawal liability. The Company’s subsidiary reached an agreement with one of the pension funds in September 2019 and made a final payment of $0.9 million in complete satisfaction of the withdrawal liability of the subsidiary. Excluding the settlement payment, the Company made monthly payments totaling $3.3 million through the time of the final settlement payment, for total payments of $4.2 million. The balance of the estimated total amount of this potential liability as of March 31, 2020 is approximately $2.5 million.

Severance and labor disputes

The Company’s German subsidiary provides employees to customers under temporary staff leasing arrangements. In April 2017, the German Labor Lease Act was passed in Germany limiting the duration of temporary workers to eighteen months, or longer as subsequently agreed with by a customer appropriate authority. Since the passing of the German Labor Lease Act, the Company explored selling its staff leasing services and concluded during the third quarter of 2018 that a sale would not be probable. As a result, the Company decided that it would not renew several of these leasing services contracts when they expired beginning in 2019. Due to the limit on the length of service allowed under the German Labor Lease Act, employees are being transitioned off the customer contracts. The German subsidiary has terminated, or will terminate, some these employees, creating a severance obligation to the terminated employees, and has transitioned, or will transition other employees to the

Table of Contents

Mistras Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(tabular dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)

Company's other customers. During December 2019, the Company executed an agreement to sell the rights of certain customer contracts for total consideration of approximately $0.1 million, effective January 1, 2020. No other assets or liabilities other than those employee benefits related to employees working on the customer contracts were included in the sale. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has approximately $0.6 million of accrued estimated severance payment obligations, which takes into account the Company's estimate with respect to the employees that have been or will be transitioned to the German subsidiaries' other customers. The $0.6 million of estimated obligations is net of $0.3 million in payments and $0.6 million in reversals due to employees being transitioned to customer contracts.

Acquisition and disposition related contingencies

The Company is liable for contingent consideration in connection with certain of its acquisitions. As of March 31, 2020, total potential acquisition-related contingent consideration ranged from zero to approximately $5.7 million and would be payable upon the achievement of specific performance metrics by certain of the acquired companies over the next 2.42 years.

During 2018, the Company sold a subsidiary in the Products and Systems segment. As part of the sale, the Company entered into a three-year agreement to purchase products from the buyer, with a cumulative commitment of $2.3 million, of which $1.4 million is remaining as of March 31, 2020. The agreement is based on third-party pricing and the Company's planned purchase requirements over the three year purchase period to meet the minimum contractual purchases.

15. Segment Disclosure

The Company’s three operating segments are:

•Services. This segment provides asset protection solutions predominantly in North America, with the largest concentration in the United States, followed by Canada, consisting primarily of NDT, inspection, mechanical and engineering services that are used to evaluate the safety, structural integrity and reliability of critical energy, industrial and public infrastructure and commercial aerospace components. PCMS software and pipeline related software and data analysis solutions are included in this segment.

•International. This segment offers services, products and systems similar to those of the other segments to select markets within Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and South America, but not to customers in China and South Korea, which are served by the Products and Systems segment.

•Products and Systems. This segment designs, manufactures, sells, installs and services the Company’s asset protection products and systems, including equipment and instrumentation, predominantly in the United States.

Costs incurred for general corporate services, including finance, legal, and certain other costs that are provided to the segments are reported within Corporate and eliminations. Sales to the International segment from the Products and Systems segment and subsequent sales by the International segment of the same items are recorded and reflected in the operating performance of both segments. Additionally, engineering charges and royalty fees charged to the Services and International segments by the Products and Systems segment are reflected in the operating performance of each segment. All such intersegment transactions are eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial reporting.

Our operations consist of three reportable segments: Services, International, and Products and Systems.

•Services provides asset protection solutions predominantly in North America, with the largest concentration in the United States, followed by Canada, consisting primarily of NDT, inspection, mechanical and engineering services that are used to evaluate the structural integrity and reliability of critical energy, industrial and public infrastructure and commercial aerospace components. PCMS software and pipeline related software and data analysis solutions are included in this segment.

•International offers services, products and systems similar to those of the other segments to select markets within Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and South America, but not to customers in China and South Korea, which are served by the Products and Systems segment.

•Products and Systems designs, manufactures, sells, installs and services the Company’s asset protection products and systems, including equipment and instrumentation, predominantly in the United States.

Given the role our solutions play in enhancing the safe and efficient operation of infrastructure, we have historically provided a majority of our solutions to our customers on a regular, recurring basis. We perform these services largely at our customers’ facilities, while primarily servicing our aerospace customers at our growing network of state-of-the-art, in-house laboratories. These solutions typically include NDT and inspection services, and can also include a wide range of mechanical services, including heat tracing, pre-inspection insulation stripping, coating applications, re-insulation, and re-insulation, engineering assessments and long-term condition-monitoring. Under this business model, many customers outsource their inspection to us on a “run and maintain” basis. We have established long-term relationships as a critical solutions provider to many of the leading companies with asset-intensive infrastructure in our target markets. These markets include oil and gas (downstream, midstream, upstream and petrochemical), commercial aerospace and defense, power generation (natural gas, fossil, nuclear, alternative, renewable, and transmission and distribution), public infrastructure, chemicals, transportation, primary metals and metalworking and research and engineering institutions.

We have focused on providing our advanced asset protection solutions to our customers using proprietary, technology-enabled software and testing instruments, including those developed by our Products and Systems segment. We have made numerous acquisitions in an effort to grow our base of experienced, certified personnel, expand our service lines and technical capabilities, increase our geographical reach, complement our existing offerings, and leverage our fixed costs. We have increased our capabilities and the size of our customer base through the development of applied technologies and managed support services, organic growth and the integration of acquired companies. These acquisitions have provided us with additional service lines, technologies, resources and customers that we believe will enhance our advantages over our competition.

We believe long-term growth can be realized in all of our target markets. We expect the timing of our oil and gas customers inspection spend to be impacted by oil price fluctuations. In addition, we have increased our capabilities and the size of our customer base through the development of applied technologies and managed support services, organic growth and the integration of acquired companies. Recent acquisitions have provided us with additional products, technologies, resources and customers that we believe will enhance our advantages over our competition.

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. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant volatility in domestic and international markets. There is on-going uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. and international economies. In addition, oil prices have dropped significantly and airline traffic has also dropped significantly. These declines were driven by the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and, in the case of the oil and gas market, other macroeconomic events such as the geopolitical tensions between OPEC and Russia, which also resulted in a significant drop in oil prices.

The COVID-19 pandemic and significant drop in oil prices has adversely affected our workforce and operations, as well as the operations of our customers, suppliers and contractors. These negative factors have also resulted in significant volatility and uncertainty in the markets in which we operate. To successfully navigate through this unprecedented period, we continue to focus on the following key priorities:

•Ensuring the health and safety of our employees and those of our customers and suppliers;

(tabular dollars are in thousands)

•Maintaining business continuity and financial strength and stability; and

•Serving our customers as they provide essential products and services to the world.

While we cannot fully assess the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic or the significant drop in oil prices will have on all of our operations at this time, there are certain impacts that we have identified:

•The financial market volatility that resulted from COVID-19 and the drop in oil prices required that we reassess the goodwill we had recorded related to various prior acquisitions under the guidance of ASC 350. We determined that the fair values of various reporting units were less than their carrying values (including goodwill). As a result, we recorded an impairment charge related to goodwill of approximately $77.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 8–Goodwill in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

•This same financial market volatility required the we reassess the tangible and intangible assets recorded under the guidance of ASC 360. We determined that the fair values of certain asset groups were less than their carrying values (excluding goodwill). As a result, we recorded impairment charges related to intangible assets of approximately $28.8 million and a right-of-use asset of approximately $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 9–Intangible Assets and Note 13–Leases in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

•As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with the terms of our $300 million revolving line of credit and $100 million senior secured term loan A facility provided by our banking group. Given the uncertainty of our projected cash flows as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the drop in oil prices, we entered into an amendment on May 15, 2020 with our banking group that, among other provisions, modifies the current financial covenants. It is probable, based on the amended covenants, that we will comply with the amended covenants and fulfil our obligations under the credit agreement; however, such matters cannot be predicted with certainty. See Note11–Long-Term Debt in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

To respond to the economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the drop in oil prices, we have initiated a cost reduction and efficiency program. All of our named executive officers have voluntarily taken temporary salary reductions ranging from 25% to 45% of their base salary. In addition, we instituted a reduction for our other salaried employees, at lower percentages, and suspended our voluntary match under our sponsored savings plans for our U.S. and Canadian employees. These reductions are for the second quarter of 2020. If the economic downturn continues beyond the second quarter and there is no sign of economic recovery for us or our industry, we will assess whether to continue these cost saving measures. In addition, our non-employee directors voluntarily agreed to a $3,750 reduction in their second quarter 2020 payment.

We are currently unable to predict with certainty the overall impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and drop in oil prices may have on our business, results of operations, or liquidity. We will likely be impacted by the pandemic and drop in oil prices in other ways which we cannot yet determine. We will continue to monitor market conditions and respond accordingly. Refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors in Part I of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K ("2019 Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 27, 2020.

Note About Non-GAAP Measures

In this MD&A under the heading "Income (loss) from Operations", the non-GAAP financial performance measure "Income (loss) before special items” is used for each of our three segments, the Corporate segment and the "Total Company", with tables reconciling the measure to a financial measure under GAAP. This non-GAAP measure excludes from the GAAP measure "Income (loss) from Operations" (a) transaction expenses related to acquisitions, such as professional fees and due diligence costs, (b) the net changes in the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration liabilities, (c) impairment charges, (d) reorganization and other costs, which includes items such as severance, labor relations matters and asset and lease termination costs and (e) other special items. These adjustments have been excluded from the GAAP measure because these expenses and credits are not related to the Company’s or Segment’s core business operations. The acquisition related costs and special items can be a net expense or credit in any given period.

We believe investors and other users of our financial statements benefit from the presentation of "Income (loss) before special items" for each of our three segments, the Corporate segment and the Total Company in evaluating our performance. Income (loss) before special items excludes the identified adjustments, which provides additional tools to compare our core business operating performance on a consistent basis and measure underlying trends and results in our business. Income (loss) before

special items is not used to determine incentive compensation for executives or employees, nor is it a replacement for GAAP and/or necessarily comparable to the non-GAAP financial measures of other companies.

Revenue

Revenue was $159.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 , a decrease of $17.3 million, or 9.8%, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Revenues by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 were as follows:


	Three months ended
	March 31, 2020		March 31, 2019

Products and Systems	2,812		3,432
Corporate and eliminations	(1,287)		(2,105)
	$	159,465	$	176,787

Three Months

In the three months ended March 31, 2020, total revenue decreased 9.8% due to a combination of low double-digit organic decline and the low single-digit unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates, partially offset by low single-digit acquisition growth. The decrease in revenue was primarily the result of the impact of COVID-19, as many of our customers cut back operations. Services segment revenues decreased 8.1%, driven by high single-digit organic decline, partially offset by the low-single digit acquisition growth. International segment revenues decreased 17.3%, driven by double-digit organic decline and the mid-single-digit unfavorable impact of foreign exchange rates. Products and Systems segment revenues decreased by 18.1%, due predominantly to the organic decline.

Oil and gas customer revenues comprised approximately 58% and 57% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Aerospace and defense customer revenues comprised approximately 14% of total revenues for

both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. The Company’s top ten customers comprised approximately 34% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to 38% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, with no customer accounting for 10% or more of total revenues in either three-month period.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased by $8.2 million, or 16.8%, in the three months ended March 31, 2020, on a decrease in sales of 9.8%.

Gross profit by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 was as follows:


	Three months ended

Three months

Gross profit margin was 25.5% and 27.6% for the three month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. COVID-19 and the significant drop in oil prices have had a significant impact on the decline as sales volumes and sales mix were both unfavorably impacted. Services segment gross profit margins had a year-on-year decline of 160 basis points to 25.0% during the three months ended March 31, 2020, due primarily to unfavorable mix of sales and lower sales volume. International segment gross margins had a year-on-year decline of 190 basis points to 27.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2020, due primarily to unfavorable sales mix and reduced volumes. Products and Systems segment gross margin had a year-on-year decrease in gross profit margin to 13.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to decreased sales volume and unfavorable sales mix.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:

(tabular dollars are in thousands)

Operating expenses increased $98.6 million, or 185%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, due predominantly to impairment charges of $106.1 million in 2020 as more fully described in Note 8–Goodwill and Note 9–Intangible Assets to these condensed consolidated financial statements. Excluding the 2020 impairment charges, operating expenses decreased due to lower bad debt, pension withdrawal and acquisition-related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the first quarter of 2019, we recorded a charge of $5.7 million to fully reserve for the amount of exposure related to a renewable energy industry customer of our Services Division, which customer subsequently filed for a voluntary insolvency proceeding on April 9, 2019.

Three months

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, loss from operations (GAAP) increased $106.8 million, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2019, while income (loss) before special items (non-GAAP) decreased $8.0 million, or 349%. As a percentage of revenues, income (loss) before special items decreased by 490 basis points to (3.6)% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 from 1.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak and significant drop in oil prices has adversely affected our workforce and operations, as well as the operations of our customers, suppliers and contractors and was the primary reason for the impairment charges. These negative factors have resulted in significant volatility and uncertainty in the markets in which we operate. We are currently unable to predict or determine the overall impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and drop in oil prices may have on our business, results of operations, or liquidity. Refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors in Part I of our 2019 Form 10-K, and the additional risk factors included in Part II, Item 1.A. of this Form 10-Q for further discussion.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was approximately $2.8 million and $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease was due to lower average level of borrowings on our Credit Agreement attributable primarily to payments on borrowings for the acquisition completed during the fourth quarter of 2018, and to a lesser extent, from a decrease in the base borrowing rate.

Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate was approximately 14% and 33% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was lower than the statutory rate primarily due to impairments recorded during the interim period for which no income tax benefits will be realized by us. However, this unfavorable impact on our effective income tax rate was partially offset by income tax benefits of the CARES Act enacted on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provides a five-year carryback of net operating losses generated in years 2018-2020. As the statutory federal income tax rate applicable to certain years within the carryback period is 35%, carryback to those years of our estimated 2020 annual tax loss provides a tax benefit in excess of the current federal statutory rate of 21%, resulting in an increased income tax benefit. We project that the income tax effects of the CARES Act will result in additional income tax benefit recognized throughout the 2020 tax year as part of the estimated annual effective tax rate, and a cash refund in 2021 of taxes paid in prior years. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was higher than the statutory rate due to the impact of discrete items, the global intangible low-taxes income, and executive compensation, and other provisions resulting from the December 22, 2017 passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and foreign tax rates different than statutory rates in the U.S.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flows are summarized in the table below:


	Three months ended
	March 31, 2020		March 31, 2019

Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	6,107	$	8,177
Investing activities	(4,204)		(5,001)
Financing activities	492		(3,949)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	(384)		(171)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	2,011	$	(944)

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash provided by operating activities was $6.1 million, representing a year-on-year decrease of $2.1 million, or 25%. The decrease was primarily attributable to movements in working capital.

(tabular dollars are in thousands)

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash used in investing activities was $4.2 million, compared with $5.0 million in 2019. The decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in capital expenditures to $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared with $5.7 million in the comparable 2019 period.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to net cash used of $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we borrowed an additional $6.0 million, net of payments, on our revolving credit facility as compared to 2019 and, in addition, made payments of $1.3 million and $0.5 million for acquisition-related contingent consideration and financing costs, respectively.

Effect of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash and Cash Equivalents

The effect of exchange rate changes on our cash and cash equivalents was a net reduction of $0.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to a net reduction of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Cash Balance and Credit Facility Borrowings

The terms of our Credit Agreement have not changed from those set forth in Part II, Item 7 of our 2019 Annual Report under the Section “Liquidity and Capital Resources”, under the heading “Cash Balance and Credit Facility Borrowings,” and in Note 11–Long-Term Debt to these condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report, under the heading “Senior Credit Facility.”

As of March 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $17.0 million and available borrowing capacity of $139.7 million under our Credit Agreement with borrowings of $250.3 million and $3.7 million of letters of credit outstanding. We finance operations primarily through our existing cash balances, cash collected from operations, bank borrowings and capital lease financing. We believe these sources are sufficient to fund our operations for the foreseeable future.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and will continuously monitor its compliance with the covenants contained in its Credit Agreement.

In response to the uncertain impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant drop in oil prices on our projected cash flows and ability to continue compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, on May 15, 2020, we amended the Credit Agreement as more fully described in Note 11–Long-Term Debt to these condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no significant changes in our contractual obligations and outstanding indebtedness as disclosed in the 2019 Annual Report.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

There have been no significant changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk as discussed in Part II, Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” included in the 2019 Annual Report.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer concluded that, as of March 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed below.

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 policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management previously disclosed material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting in our 2019 Annual Report pertaining to financial reporting processes and internal control related to accounting for income taxes. The Company remains committed to an effective internal control environment and management believes that these actions, and the improvements management expects to achieve as a result, will remediate the material weakness. However, the material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded through testing that these controls operate effectively. The Company continues to execute on the remediation plans as outlined below.

Remediation Plans

Our management, with oversight from the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, is actively engaged in remediation efforts to address the identified material weaknesses over income taxes. These efforts include:

•Accelerate the risk assessment process related to changes in the business;

•Enhance the design of controls surrounding the preparation and review of the income tax provision, and enhance the automation of the income tax processes and controls to allow for a timelier completion and review of internal controls; and

•Accelerate all key activities within the income tax accounting and reporting process and controls by further increasing and expanding the capabilities of the income tax accounting resources in order to devote additional time and resources to the consolidated income tax accounting and reporting processes and controls.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, other than as set forth in the remediation plan described above.

ITEM 1.A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed under the “Risk Factors” section included in our 2019 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the 2019 Annual Report, except for the addition of the following risk factors.

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected and in the future periods is expected to continue to adversely affect our business and operations.

The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting, and is expected to continue to adversely affect, our business and operations and the business and operations of our customers. We have experienced and expect to continue to experience, unpredictable reductions in demand for our services and products. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, companies within the oil and gas and aerospace industries (including our customers) have announced spending cuts and/or slowdowns (or temporary cessation) in production which, in turn, may result in decreases in awards of new contracts or adjustments, reductions, suspensions or cancellations of existing contracts. In addition, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, some of our customers have been and could continue to be negatively impacted as a result of disruption in demand, which has led to delays and could lead to defaults on collections of receivables from them. Such continued delays could negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The continued spread of COVID-19 may result in a decrease in business and/or cause our customers to be unable to meet existing payment or other obligations to us, particularly in the event of a spread of COVID-19 in our market areas. The continued spread of COVID-19 could also negatively impact the availability of our key personnel necessary to conduct our business. In addition, any significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, could negatively affect our liquidity. Because the severity, magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic consequences are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict, the impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations remains uncertain and difficult to predict. While we expect the COVID-19 pandemic to have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, cash flow and results of operations, we are unable to predict the extent, nature or duration of these impacts at this time, although we expect such negative impacts for the remainder of the fiscal year and perhaps longer.

If the economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic increases in magnitude or continues longer than expected, we may have difficulty meeting the financial covenants in our credit agreement with our banks.

The Company expected that the economic disruption being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic would likely cause our results in upcoming quarters to be less than are required to meet the financial covenants in our credit agreement with our banks. We obtained an amendment to our credit agreement which included, among other terms, modifications to the financial covenants in the credit agreement. We believe we will be able to meet the amended financial covenants. However, due to the uncertainties and risks created by the COVID-19 pandemic, no assurance can be given that we will comply with these covenants, particularly if the pandemic increases in intensity or its duration is longer than expected. If we are not able to meet the financial covenants in our credit agreement in future quarters, we will be in default, which would give the lenders the right to terminate the agreement, not allow us to borrow on our line of credit, call all of our loans to be due and payable, and exercise any other remedies available to the lenders. If we do default on our credit agreement and the lenders elect to not grant us a waiver or amendment and/or to commence exercising their remedies and we are unable to obtain other funding sources, our operations will be materially impacted and we may not be able to continue operating as a going concern. If we do obtain alternate funding sources, this alternate financing could be on substantially different and adverse terms than our existing credit agreement, materially impacting our operations and profitability, and otherwise could significantly dilute our existing shareholders and have other materially adverse effects on us and our shareholders.
