The Company had no dilutive securities for the three months ended June 30, 2022 since the Company incurred net losses for both continuing and discontinued operations for these periods and inclusion would be antidilutive. Amounts are presented on a gross basis. Accumulated statutory reserves in equity method investments of $2.7 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is included in our investment in BOMAY. In accordance with the People’s Republic of China, (“PRC”) regulations on enterprises with foreign ownership, an enterprise established in the PRC with foreign ownership is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely (i) General Reserve Fund, (ii) Enterprise Expansion Fund and (iii) Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A non-wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is permitted to provide for the above allocation at the discretion of its board of directors. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. The Company’s initial investment in BOMAY differed from the Company’s 40% share of BOMAY’s equity as a result of applying fair value accounting pursuant to ASC 805. The basis difference is being accreted over an original period of nine years (the expected life of the joint venture). The Company's accretion during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 both totaled approximately $32 thousand each, respectively, and is included in income from equity investment in foreign joint venture in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Dilutive securities include the dilutive effect of incremental shares for unvested restricted stock units ("RSUs") and unexercised stock options from the Company's stock-based compensation awards. The dilutive RSUs and stock options are calculated under the treasury stock method. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, 2,074,505 of stock options were excluded from dilutive shares because their effect would be anti-dilutive, and 105,843 of RSUs were excluded. Amounts are included within cost of LNG product on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The classification between current and noncurrent assets is based upon when the Call Options mature. 00010431862023-01-012023-06-30 xbrli:shares 00010431862023-08-08 thunderdome:item iso4217:USD

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“this Report”) includes statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements represent intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties and other factors. These statements may relate to, but are not limited to, information or assumptions about us, our capital and other expenditures, dividends, financing plans, capital structure, cash flow, pending legal and regulatory proceedings and claims, including environmental matters, future economic performance, operating income, cost savings, and management’s plans, strategies, goals and objectives for future operations and growth. These forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “should,” “seek,” “project,” “plan” or similar expressions. Any statement that is not a historical fact is a forward-looking statement. It should be understood that these forward-looking statements are necessary estimates reflecting the best judgment of senior management, not guarantees of future performance. Many of the factors that impact forward-looking statements are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements as described in Part I. “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("the SEC") on March 9, 2023, as well as the additional risk factors identified and described in Part II. “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Report.

 

We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. All forward-looking statements included in this document are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.

 

In this Report, we may rely on and refer to information from market research reports, analyst reports and other publicly available information. Although we believe that this information is reliable, we cannot guarantee the accuracy and completeness of this information, and we have not independently verified it.

STABILIS SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

 

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Description of Business

 

Stabilis Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “Stabilis”, “our”, “us” or “we”) is an energy transition company that provides turnkey clean energy production, storage, transportation and fueling solutions primarily using liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) to multiple end markets.

 

The Company serves customers in diverse end markets, including aerospace, agriculture, energy, industrial, marine bunkering, mining, pipeline, remote power and utility markets. LNG can be used to deliver natural gas to locations where pipeline service is unavailable, has been interrupted, or needs to be supplemented. Additionally, LNG can be used as a partner fuel for renewable energy, and as an alternative to traditional fuel sources, such as distillate fuel oil (including diesel fuel and other fuel oils) and propane, among others to provide both environmental and economic benefits.

 

The Company also builds power and control systems for the energy industry in China through its 40% owned Chinese joint venture, BOMAY Electric Industries, Inc (“BOMAY”). BOMAY is accounted for as an equity investment.

 

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited, interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries and, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. We believe that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to prevent the information presented herein from being misleading. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) for a fair presentation of the interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed on March 9, 2023.

 

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, all dollar amounts in tabulations are in thousands, unless otherwise indicated.

 

The sale of the Brazil Operations on October 31, 2022, met the criteria for discontinued operations presentation. The classification of these assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows as discontinued operations requires retrospective application to financial information for all prior periods presented. Accordingly, the operating results for the three and six months ended  June 30, 2022, and cash flows for the six months ended  June 30, 2022, have been recast on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, respectively. There were no assets and liabilities from discontinued operations as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022, and no results of operations or cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Unless otherwise noted, the amounts presented throughout the notes to our Financial Statements relate to our continuing operations. See Note 2 for further discussion of the Company's discontinued operations.

 

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates include the fair value of natural gas derivatives, the carrying amount of contingencies, valuation allowances for receivables, inventories, and deferred income tax assets, valuations assigned to assets and liabilities in business combinations, and impairments of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and these differences could be material to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Derivative instruments

 

The Company had certain natural gas derivative instruments as of  June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company recognizes all of its derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities which are recorded at fair value on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it qualifies for and has been designated as a hedge as well as the type of hedge. The Company has not designated its derivatives as hedges under U.S. GAAP and all resulting gains and losses from changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments are included within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company did not enter into any derivative transactions for speculative purposes. See Note 4 for further discussion of the Company's derivatives.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which changes the way companies evaluate credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For receivables, and other short-term financial instruments, companies will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model to evaluate impairment, potentially resulting in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The new standard also requires enhanced disclosures, including the requirement to disclose the information used to track credit quality by year of origination. ASU No. 2016-13 was effective for the Company in the first quarter 2023. Adoption of this standard had no material impact to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

 

2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

On October 31, 2022, the Company entered into a sales agreement and closed on the sale of its Brazil Operations. The sale of the Brazil Operations met the criteria for discontinued operations presentation as the sale of the Brazil Operations represented a strategic shift of future operations of the Company. Further, the Brazil Operations had separately reported financial information available as the Brazil Operations represented substantially all of the revenue and expenses of the Company's previously reported Power Delivery segment.

 

The classification of these assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows as discontinued operations requires retrospective application to financial information for all prior periods presented. Accordingly, for the 2022 periods preceding the sale, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes have been recast to separately state the revenues, expenses and cash flows between its continuing operations and the discontinued operations. The Company had no assets and liabilities related to the Brazil Operations at June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022. In addition, the Company had no results of operations nor cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

We recognize revenues when the transfer of promised goods or services are delivered to our customers in accordance with the applicable customer contract and we are entitled to be paid by the customer. Revenues are measured as consideration specified in the contract and exclude any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Amounts are billed upon completion of service or transfer of a product and are generally due within 30 days. Revenues from contracts with customers are disaggregated into (1) LNG product (2) rental (3) service and (4) other.

 

LNG product revenue generated includes the revenue from the production and delivery of LNG to our customer’s location. Product contracts are established by agreeing on a sales price or transaction price for the related item. Product revenue is recognized upon delivery of the related item to the customer, at which point the customer controls the product and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. The Company acts as a principal when using third party transportation companies and therefore recognizes the gross revenue for the delivery of LNG. The Company enters into forward sales contracts for the delivery of LNG to its customers. Certain of these sales contracts contain provisions that may meet the criteria of a derivative in the event delivery is not made. These contracts are accounted for under the normal purchase normal sales exclusion under U.S. GAAP and are not measured at fair value each reporting period.

 

Rental, service and other revenue generated by the Company includes equipment and human resources provided to the customer to support the use of LNG and services in their application. Rental contracts are established by agreeing on a rental price or transaction price for the related piece of equipment and the rental period which is generally daily or monthly. Revenues related to rental of equipment are recognized under Topic 606 and not ASC 842: Leases, as the Company maintains control of the equipment that the customer uses and can replace the rented equipment with similar equipment should the rented equipment become inoperable or the Company chooses to replace the equipment for maintenance purposes. Revenue is recognized as the rental period is completed and for periods that cross month end, revenue is recognized for the portion of the rental period that has been completed to date. Performance obligations for rental revenue are considered to be satisfied as the rental period is completed based upon the terms of the related contract. LNG service revenue generated by the Company consists of mobilization and demobilization of equipment and onsite technical support while customers are consuming LNG in their applications. Service revenue is billed based on contractual terms that can be based on an event (i.e. mobilization or demobilization) or an hourly rate. Revenue is recognized as the event is completed or work is done. Performance obligations for service revenue are considered to be satisfied as the event is completed or work is done per the terms of the related contract.

 

Variable and Other Revenue Components

 

Certain of our contracts may include rental or services that may vary upon the customer demands at stated rates within the contract and are satisfied as the work is authorized by the customer and performed by the Company. LNG product sales agreements may include both fixed and variable fees per gallon of LNG, but is representative of the stand-alone selling price for LNG at the time the contract was negotiated. We have concluded that the variable LNG fees meet the exception for allocating variable consideration to specific parts of the contract. As such, the variable consideration for these contracts is allocated to each distinct gallon of LNG and recognized when that distinct gallon of LNG is delivered to the customer.

 

Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are directly imposed on revenue-producing transactions between the Company and its customers, such as sales, use and value-added taxes, are excluded from revenue.

4. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

 

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held a series of call options (“the Call Options”) for the purchase of natural gas related to customer commitments. The Call Options are for a total of 0.9 million MMBtu (million British thermal units) of natural gas at June 30, 2023 which extend into the second quarter of 2024. The Company purchased the Call Options to manage the risk of increasing natural gas prices above what it can charge its customers. The Company may also enter into other derivative transactions when beneficial. Except for contracts qualifying for the normal purchase normal sales exception, as further described below, the Company recognizes all of its derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities which are recorded at fair value on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the Call Options are predominantly determined from broker quotes and are considered a level 2 fair value measurement. The following table presents the location and fair value of the Call Options at June 30, 2023 and  December 31, 2022 on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):

Accumulated statutory reserves in equity method investments of $2.7 million at  June 30, 2023 and  December 31, 2022 is included in our investment in BOMAY. In accordance with the Peoples Republic of China, (PRC) regulations on enterprises with foreign ownership, an enterprise established in the PRC with foreign ownership is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely (i) General Reserve Fund, (ii) Enterprise Expansion Fund and (iii) Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprises PRC statutory accounts.

The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends.

 

 

(2)

The Companys initial investment in BOMAY differed from the Companys 40% share of BOMAYs equity as a result of applying fair value accounting pursuant to ASC 805. The basis difference is being accreted over an original period of nine years (the expected life of the joint venture). The Company's accretion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 both totaled approximately $65 thousand each, respectively, and is included in income from equity investment in foreign joint venture in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The remaining basis difference, net of accumulated accretion at  June 30, 2023 and  December 31, 2022 is summarized in the following table (in thousands):

Net remaining basis difference at end of period

 $658  $722 

 

In accordance with our long-lived asset policy, when events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, management tests long-lived assets for impairment. If the estimated future cash flows are projected to be less than the carrying amount, an impairment write-down (representing the carrying amount of the long-lived asset which exceeds the present value of estimated expected future cash flows) would be recorded as a period expense. In making this evaluation, a variety of quantitative and qualitative factors are considered including national and local economic, political and market conditions, industry trends and prospects, liquidity and capital resources and other pertinent factors. Based on this evaluation for this reporting period, the Company does not believe an impairment of our investment in BOMAY is necessary for the period ending June 30, 2023.

Revolving Credit Facility

 

 

On June 9, 2023, the Company, along with its subsidiaries, Stabilis LNG Eagle Ford LLC, Stabilis GDS, Inc. and Stabilis LNG Port Allen, LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a three-year loan agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Cadence Bank. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for a maximum aggregate amount of $10.0 million, subject to a borrowing base of 80% of eligible accounts receivable. The Company may request an increase in the maximum aggregate amount under the Revolving Credit Facility by up to $5.0 million, subject to the approval of Cadence Bank. All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable and deposit accounts. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility incur interest at the Prime Rate published by the Wall Street Journal. Any unused portion is subject to a quarterly unused commitment fee of 0.5% per annum. As of June 30, 2023, no amounts have been drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on June 9, 2026.

 

The Revolving Credit Facility contains various restrictions and covenants. Among other requirements, the Borrowers must maintain a consolidated net worth of at least $50 million as of June 30, 2023, increasing by 50% of the Borrowers’ net income as of the end of each year ended December 31, and must maintain a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 on a consolidated basis, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, on a trailing twelve (12) months basis. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains customary events of default. If an event of default under the Revolving Credit Facility occurs and is continuing, then Cadence Bank may declare any outstanding obligations under the Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable. In addition, if any of the Borrowers become the subject of voluntary or involuntary proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, then any outstanding obligations under the Loan Agreement will automatically become immediately due and payable. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all its covenants related to the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

Secured Term Note

 

On April 8, 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with AmeriState Bank (“Lender”), to provide for an advancing loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million (the “AmeriState Loan”), of which $9.0 million was drawn and outstanding as of June 30, 2023. The AmeriState Loan, which is in the form of a term loan facility, matures on April 8, 2031 and bears interest at 5.75% per annum through April 8, 2026, and the U.S. prime lending rate plus 2.5% per annum thereafter. The AmeriState Loan provides that proceeds from borrowings may be used for working capital purposes at the Company’s liquefaction plant in George West, Texas and related fees and costs associated with the AmeriState Loan. The Loan Agreement is secured by specific equipment owned by the Company.

 

Upon an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement), the Lender may (i) terminate its commitment, (ii) declare the outstanding principal amount of the Advancing Notes (as defined in the Loan Agreement) due and payable, or (iii) exercise all rights and remedies available to Lender under the Loan Agreement.

 

The Loan Agreement requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants which include a debt-to-net-worth ratio of not more than 9.1 to 1.0 and a debt service coverage ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0 on an annual basis beginning December 31, 2022.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q (“this Report”) and the consolidated financial statements included in the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 9, 2023 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows, including trends that might appear, are not necessarily indicative of future operations or cash flows.

 

Overview

 

Stabilis Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries is an energy transition company that provides turnkey clean energy production, storage, transportation and fueling solutions primarily using liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) to multiple end markets. We provide LNG solutions to customers in diverse end markets, including aerospace, agriculture, energy, industrial, marine bunkering, mining, pipeline, remote power and utility markets. LNG can be used to deliver natural gas to locations where pipeline service is unavailable, has been interrupted, or needs to be supplemented. LNG can also be used to replace a variety of alternative fuels, including distillate fuel oil and propane, among others, to provide environmental and economic benefits. Increasingly, LNG is being utilized as a transportation fuel in the marine industry and as a propellant in the private rocket launch sector. We believe that these fuel markets are large and provide significant opportunities for LNG usage.

 

We believe that LNG as well as other clean energy solutions will provide an important balance between environmental sustainability, security and accessibility, and economic viability when compared to both renewables and other traditional hydrocarbon-based fuels and will play a key role in the energy transition.

 

The Company generates revenue by selling and delivering LNG to our customers, renting cryogenic equipment and providing engineering and field support services. We sell our products and services separately or as a bundle depending on the customer’s needs. Pricing depends on market pricing for natural gas and competing fuel sources (such as diesel, fuel oil, and propane among others), as well as the customer’s purchased volume, contract duration and credit profile.

 

LNG Production and Sales—Stabilis builds and operates cryogenic natural gas processing facilities, called “liquefiers,” which convert natural gas into LNG through a purification and multiple stage cooling process. We currently own and operate a liquefier that can produce up to 100,000 LNG gallons per day in George West, Texas and a liquefier that can produce up to 30,000 LNG gallons per day in Port Allen, Louisiana. We also purchase LNG from third-party production sources which allows us to support customers in markets where we do not own liquefiers. We make the determination of LNG and transportation supply sources based on the cost of LNG, the transportation cost to deliver to regional customer locations, and the reliability of the supply source.

 

Transportation and Logistics Services—Stabilis offers our customers a “virtual natural gas pipeline” by providing turnkey LNG transportation and logistics services in North America. We deliver LNG to our customers’ work sites from both our own production facilities and our network of third-party production sources located throughout North America. We own a fleet of cryogenic trailers to transport and deliver LNG. We also outsource similar equipment and transportation services from qualified third-party providers as required to support our customer base.

 

Cryogenic Equipment Rental—Stabilis operates a fleet of mobile LNG storage and vaporization assets, including: transportation trailers, electric and gas-fired vaporizers, ambient vaporizers, storage tanks, and mobile vehicle fuelers. We also own several stationary storage and regasification assets. We believe this is one of the largest fleets of small-scale LNG equipment in North America. Our fleet consists primarily of trailer-mounted mobile assets, making delivery to and between customer locations more efficient. We deploy these assets on job sites to provide our customers with the equipment required to transport, store, and consume LNG in their operations.

 

Engineering and Field Support Services—Stabilis has experience in the safe, cost effective, and reliable use of LNG in multiple customer applications. We have also developed many processes and procedures that we believe improve our customers’ use of LNG in their operations. Our engineers help our customers design and integrate LNG into their operations and our field service technicians help our customers mobilize, commission and reliably operate on the job site.

 

 

Results of Operations

 

Stabilis supplies LNG to multiple end markets in North America and provides turnkey fuel solutions to help users of propane, diesel and other crude-based fuel products convert to LNG. The sale of the Brazil Operations represents all of the revenues and expenses previously reported within the Company's Power Delivery segment with the exception of the Company's equity method investment in BOMAY. Further, the decision to exit the Brazil Operations met the criteria to be reported as discontinued operations. As a result, the Company has one reporting segment and the operating results presented in the tables below have been recast to separately present the revenues and expenses related to the Brazil Operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Revenues

 

During the Current Quarter, revenues decreased  $10.2 million, or 44%, compared to the Prior Year Quarter. The decrease in revenue primarily related to:

 

 

Lower natural gas prices which are passed through to our customers as revenue in the Current Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter;

 

 

Fewer gallons of LNG delivered in the Current Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter, partially due to feed gas composition changes at our south Texas LNG production facility; 

 

 

Customer mix in the Current Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter; and 

 

 

Decreased rental and service revenues.

 

These decreases in revenues were partially offset by increased revenues from “take-or-pay” contracts.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Costs of revenues. Cost of revenues decreased $9.0 million, or 46%, compared to the Prior Year Quarter. As a percentage of revenue, these costs were 82% and 84% in the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter, respectively. The decrease in cost of revenues was attributable to:

 

 

Lower natural gas prices during the Current Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter; and

 

 

Fewer gallons of LNG delivered in the Current Quarter compared to the Prior Year Quarter.

 

Change in unrealized loss on natural gas derivatives. The Company incurred a gain of $0.2 million on the change in unrealized losses associated with the Company's natural gas derivatives in the Current Quarter compared to a loss of $0.9 million in the Prior Year Quarter. The gain in the Current Quarter was due to offsetting amortization of realized losses as call option volumes expired unexercised during the Current Quarter. See also Note 4 in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion of our derivatives.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expense was comparable for both the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter.

 

Depreciation. Depreciation expense decreased 9% during the Current Quarter as compared to the Prior Year Quarter due to assets reaching the end of their depreciable lives.

 

Net equity income from foreign joint venture operations. Equity Income from the Company's foreign joint venture was comparable for both the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter.

 

Interest expense, net - related parties. Related party interest expense decreased $25 thousand in the Current Quarter as compared to the Prior Year Quarter primarily related to lower debt balances.

 

Other income (expense). Other expense was $40 thousand during the Current Quarter compared to $26 thousand in the Prior Year Quarter related to transactional foreign exchange losses.

 

Income tax expense. The Company incurred a state and foreign income tax expense of $0.2 million during the Current Quarter compared to a state and foreign income tax benefit of $1 thousand during the Prior Year Quarter. No U.S. federal income tax benefit was recorded for the Current Quarter or Prior Year Quarter as any net U.S. deferred tax assets generated from operating losses were offset by a change in the Company's valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets.

 

Discontinued Operations. Operating loss from discontinued operations, net of tax was $0.1 million for the Prior Year Quarter. The Company sold its Brazil Operations on October 31, 2022. There was no activity from discontinued operations during the Current Quarter. See Note 2 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the Company's discontinued operations.

Revenues

 

During the Current Year, revenues decreased $3.7 million, or 8%, compared to the Prior Year. The decrease in revenue was primarily related to:

 

 

Lower natural gas prices in the Current Year compared to the Prior Year; and

 

 

Fewer gallons of LNG delivered in the Current Year compared to the Prior Year, partially due to feed gas composition changes at our south Texas LNG production facility.

 

These decreases in revenues were partially offset by:

 

 

Increased pricing per gallon charged to customers in the Current Year compared to the Prior Year;

 

 

Increased revenues from “take-or-pay” contracts; and

 

 

Increased rental, service and other revenues.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Costs of revenues. Cost of revenues decreased $4.2 million, or 12%, compared to the Prior Year. As a percentage of revenue, these costs were 78% in the Current Year compared to 81% in the Prior Year. The decrease in cost of revenues was attributable to:

 

 

Lower natural gas prices during the Current Year compared to the Prior Year; and

 

 

Fewer gallons of LNG delivered in the Current Year compared to the Prior Year.

 

These decreases in costs of revenues were partially offset by:

 

 

Inflationary pressures, including increased transportation pricing, liquefactions costs, personnel and other costs;

 

 

Increased "take-or-pay" fees; and

 

 

Increased costs of rental, service and other revenue.

 

Change in unrealized loss on natural gas derivatives. The Company incurred a gain of $0.1 million on the change in unrealized losses associated with the Company's natural gas derivatives for the Current Year compared to a loss of $0.9 million in the Prior Year. The gain in the Current Year was due to offsetting amortization of realized losses as call option volumes expired unexercised during the Current Year. See also Note 4 in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion of our derivatives. 

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expense increased $0.4 million, during the Current Year compared to the Prior Year. The increase was primarily related to increased compensation expense and professional services.

 

Gain from disposal of fixed assets. In the Prior Year, a gain of $0.1 million was recognized from the disposal of fixed assets. There was no gain in the Current Year.

 

Depreciation. Depreciation expense decreased 11% during the Current Year as compared to the Prior Year due to assets reaching the end of their depreciable lives.

 

Net equity income from foreign joint venture operations. Equity Income from the Company's joint venture increased $0.3 million during the Current Year due to increased demand for its products in China.

 

Interest expense, net. Interest expense increased $10 thousand during the Current Year as compared to the Prior Year primarily related to interest on additional borrowings from the Company's loan with AmeriState Bank.

 

Interest expense, net - related parties. Related party interest expense decreased $24 thousand in the Current Year as compared to the Prior Year related to lower debt balances.

 

Other income (expense). Other expense was $0.1 million for both the Current Year and the Prior Year related to transactional foreign exchange losses.

 

Income tax expense. The Company incurred a state and foreign income tax expense of $0.2 million during the Current Year compared to a benefit of $0.1 million during the Prior Year. No U.S. federal income tax benefit was recorded for the Current Year or Prior Year as any net U.S. deferred tax assets generated from operating losses were offset by a change in the Company's valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets.

 

Discontinued Operations. Operating loss from discontinued operations, net of tax was $0.1 million for the Prior Year. The Company sold its Brazil Operations on October 31, 2022. There was no activity from discontinued operations during the Current Year. See Note 2 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the Company's discontinued operations.

 

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Historically, our principal sources of liquidity have consisted of cash on hand, cash provided by our operations, proceeds received from borrowings under the AmeriState Loan and distributions received from our BOMAY joint venture. In prior years, the Company also obtained financing from MG Finance, a related party. During the Current Quarter, our principal source of liquidity was our existing cash balances, cash provided by operations and distributions received from our BOMAY joint venture. The Company has used cash flows to invest in fixed assets to support growth as well as to pay interest and principal amounts outstanding under its debt agreements. The Company's sale of the Brazil Operations on October 31, 2022 is not anticipated to adversely impact the Company's future cash flows.

 

On June 9, 2023, the Company, along with its subsidiaries, Stabilis LNG Eagle Ford LLC, Stabilis GDS, Inc. and Stabilis LNG Port Allen, LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a three-year loan agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Cadence Bank. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for a maximum aggregate amount of $10.0 million, subject to a borrowing base of 80% of eligible accounts receivable. The Company may request an increase in the maximum aggregate amount under the Revolving Credit Facility by up to $5.0 million, subject to the approval of Cadence Bank. All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by the Borrowers’ accounts receivable and deposit accounts. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility incur interest at the Prime Rate published by the Wall Street Journal. Any unused portion is subject to a quarterly unused commitment fee of 0.5% per annum. As of June 30, 2023, no amounts have been drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on June 9, 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility contains various restrictions and covenants. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all its covenants related to the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company also has a $10.0 million secured term loan facility with AmeriState Bank, of which, $1.0 million is available for future draws at June 30, 2023. 

 

As of June 30, 2023, we had $8.1 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand and $10.2 million in outstanding debt (net of debt issuance costs), and lease obligations (of which $1.7 million is due in the next twelve months). Total availability under the Revolving Credit Facility and the secured term loan facility is $4.0 million at June 30, 2023. The Company has also filed a shelf registration statement (described below) which provides the Company the flexibility to raise capital to fund working capital requirements, repay debt and/or fund future transactions.

 

The Company is subject to substantial business risks and uncertainties inherent in the LNG industry and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash flows in the future to sustain itself or to support future growth. Management believes the Company will generate cash flows from its operations along with availability under the Company's debt agreements to fund the business for the next twelve months. As we continue to grow, management continues to evaluate additional financing alternatives, however, there is no guarantee that additional financing will be available or available at terms that would be beneficial to shareholders.

Operating Activities

 

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $4.6 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities of $0.7 million as compared to the Prior Year was primarily attributable to working capital and lower dividends from our joint venture, BOMAY.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in net cash used in the Current Year of $4.0 million was primarily due to cash paid to purchase additional assets.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. For both periods, the cash used was primarily for repayment of debt.

 

 

Future Cash Requirements

 

We require cash to fund our operating expenses and working capital requirements, including costs associated with fuel sales, debt repayments, purchases of equipment and other capital expenditures, maintenance of LNG production facilities, mergers and acquisitions (if any), pursuing market expansion, supporting sales and marketing activities and other general corporate purposes. While we believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to fund our operations and repay our debt, we may elect to pursue additional financing activities such as refinancing existing debt, obtaining new debt, or debt or equity offerings to provide flexibility with our cash management. Certain of these alternatives may require the consent of current lenders or stockholders, and there is no assurance that we will be able to execute any of these alternatives on acceptable terms or at all.

 

Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $5.2 million and primarily related to the purchase of additional liquefaction assets and rolling stock. The Company had purchase orders open of approximately $4.0 million for capital expenditures at June 30, 2023. Future capital expenditures over the next twelve months will be dependent upon investment opportunities as well as the availability of additional capital at favorable terms.

 

Shelf Registration Statement

 

On April 11, 2022, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Shelf Registration”) which was declared effective on April 26, 2022 and will permit the Company to issue up to $100.0 million in either common stock, preferred stock, warrants or a combination of the above, and gives the Company the flexibility to raise capital to fund working capital requirements, repay debt and/or fund future transactions. On December 16, 2022, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to the Shelf Registration that allows the Company to sell and issue shares of common stock directly to the public “at the market” as permitted in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. As a smaller reporting company, we are subject to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, which limits the amounts that we may sell under the Shelf Registration to no more than one-third of our public float in any twelve month period as measured in accordance with such instruction. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise capital pursuant to the Shelf Registration on acceptable terms or at all. We made no issuances under the Shelf Registration during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2023, we had no transactions that met the definition of off-balance sheet arrangements that may have a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial position or operating results.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

 

There have been no significant changes in the Company's “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 from those disclosed within the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC on March 9, 2023.

 

New Accounting Standards

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based upon the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at June 30, 2023.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

 

The Company becomes involved in various legal proceedings and claims in the normal course of business. In management’s opinion, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
