Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), a Delaware corporation, is a global oilfield products company, serving the drilling, downhole, subsea, completions and production sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. The Company's products include highly engineered capital equipment as well as products that are consumed in the drilling, well construction, production and transportation of oil and natural gas. Forum is headquartered in Houston, TX with manufacturing and distribution facilities strategically located around the globe.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Prior to the sale of our aggregate 40 % interest in the third quarter 2019, our investment in Ashtead Technology (”Ashtead”) was accounted for using the equity method of accounting as we had the ability to exert significant influence, but did not control operating and financial policies. Prior to the sale, our share of the net income (loss) from Ashtead was reported in “Earnings (loss) from equity investment” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive loss and the investment was included in “Investment in unconsolidated subsidiary” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our share of equity earnings were reported within operating income (loss), as the investee’s operations were integral to the operations of the Company. See Note 4 Acquisitions & Dispositions for further information related to the sale of our aggregate 40 % interest in Ashtead.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 or any other interim period.
These interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which are included in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019.
Change of Segment
In the first quarter 2019, we changed our reporting segments in order to align with business activity drivers and the manner in which management reviews and evaluates operating performance. Forum now operates in the following three reporting segments: Drilling & Downhole, Completions and Production. This move better aligns with the key phases of the well cycle and provides improved operating efficiencies. Historically, we operated in three business segments: Drilling & Subsea, Completions, and Production & Infrastructure. We have moved the Downhole product line from Completions to Drilling & Subsea to form the new Drilling & Downhole segment. Completions retains the Stimulation & Intervention and Coiled Tubing product lines. Finally, we renamed Production & Infrastructure as the Production segment. Our historical results of operations have been recast to retrospectively reflect these changes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Refer to Note 11 Business Segments for further information.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which we adopt as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2019
Stranded Tax Effects from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02 Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. U.S. GAAP requires deferred tax liabilities and assets to be adjusted for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates, with the effect included in income from continuing operations in the reporting period that includes the enactment date, even in
8

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
situations in which the related income tax effects of items in accumulated other comprehensive income were originally recognized in other comprehensive income (referred to as “stranded tax effects”). The amendments in this ASU allow a specific exception for reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The underlying guidance that requires that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations is not affected. In addition, the amendments in this update also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. We applied the update beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this new guidance had no material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Leases. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 842”). Under this new guidance, lessees are required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases (finance and operating). The classification as either a financing or operating lease determines whether lease expense is recognized on an effective interest method basis or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively.
We adopted this new standard as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method which requires leases existing at, or entered into after, January 1, 2019 to be recognized and measured. As such, the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We took advantage of various practical expedients provided by the new standard, including:
use of the transition package of practical expedients which, among other things, allows us to carry forward the historical lease classification for existing leases;
making an accounting policy election for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less to be excluded from the balance sheet; and
electing to not separate non-lease components from lease components for all classes of underlying lease assets.
The adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of net operating lease assets of approximately $ 54 million and operating lease liabilities of approximately $ 65 million as of January 1, 2019. The new standard did not materially affect our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. For additional information, please refer to Note 8 Leases .
Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
Accounting for Implementation Costs Related to a Cloud Computing Arrangement . In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract. This new guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred by an entity related to a cloud computing arrangement with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. Accordingly, this guidance requires an entity to capitalize certain implementation costs incurred and then amortize them over the term of the cloud hosting arrangement. Furthermore, this guidance also requires an entity to present the expense, cash flows, and capitalized implementation costs in the same financial statement line items as the associated hosting service. This new guidance will take effect for public companies with fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
Fair Value Measurement Disclosure . In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirement for Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance eliminated, modified and added certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. The amended disclosure requirements are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance. However, we currently expect that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Financial Instruments—Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), which introduced an expected credit loss methodology for the impairment of financial assets measured at amortized cost basis. It requires an entity to estimate credit losses expected over the life of an exposure based on historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including
9

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
estimates of prepayments. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. This guidance will take effect for public companies with fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance and is in the process of:
collecting historical data that will be used in the calculation of expected credit loss;
documenting relevant assumptions to calculate expected losses; and
updating policies, procedures and internal controls.
3. Revenue
Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. For a detailed discussion of our revenue recognition policies, refer to the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Disaggregated Revenue
Refer to Note 11 Business Segments for disaggregated revenue by product line and geography.
Contract Balances
Contract balances are determined on a contract by contract basis. Contract assets represent revenue recognized for goods and services provided to our customers when payment is conditioned on something other than the passage of time. Similarly, we record a contract liability when we receive consideration, or such consideration is unconditionally due, from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a sales contract. Such contract liabilities typically result from billings in excess of costs incurred on construction contracts and advance payments received on product sales.
The following table reflects the changes in our contract assets and contract liabilities balances for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (in thousands):
September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Increase / (Decrease)
$ %
Accrued revenue $ 1,084 $ 862
Costs and estimated profits in excess of billings 4,640 9,159
Contract assets $ 5,724 $ 10,021 $ ( 4,297 ) ( 43 ) %
Deferred revenue $ 7,152 $ 8,335
Billings in excess of costs and profits recognized 4,507 3,210
Contract liabilities $ 11,659 $ 11,545 $ 114 1 %
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our contract assets decreased by $ 4.3 million primarily due to the timing of orders and billings in our Subsea Technologies and Production Equipment product lines. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our contract liabilities increased by $ 0.1 million primarily due the timing of billings for customer projects in our Subsea Technologies product line.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized revenue of $ 7.0 million that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.
In the second quarter 2018, our Subsea Technologies product line received an order to supply a submarine rescue vehicle and related equipment that we expect to deliver in 2020. We use the cost-to-cost method to measure progress on this contract to recognize revenue over time. Other than this contract, all of our other contracts are less than one year in duration. As such, we have elected to apply the practical expedient, which allows an entity to exclude disclosures about its remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.

4. Acquisitions & Dispositions
Acquisitions
2018 Acquisition of Houston Global Heat Transfer LLC
On October 5, 2018, we acquired 100 % of the stock of Houston Global Heat Transfer LLC (“GHT”) for total aggregate consideration of $ 57.3 million, net of cash acquired. The aggregate consideration includes the estimated fair value (as of the acquisition date) of certain contingent cash payments due to the former owners of GHT if certain conditions are met in 2019 and 2020. Based in Houston, Texas, GHT designs, engineers, and manufactures premium industrial heat exchanger and cooling systems used primarily on hydraulic fracturing equipment. GHT’s flagship product, the Jumbotron, is an innovative cube-style radiator that substantially reduces customer maintenance expense. This acquisition is included in the Completions segment. In the first quarter of 2019, we updated the estimated fair value of the contingent cash payments and recognized a $ 4.6 million reduction in the contingent cash liability. This gain is included in contingent consideration benefit in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss.
The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition (in thousands):
Current assets, net of cash acquired $ 18,468
Property and equipment 2,408
Non-current assets 238
Intangible assets (primarily customer relationships) 30,400
Tax-deductible goodwill 20,746
Current liabilities ( 12,633 )
Long-term liabilities $ ( 2,355 )
Net assets acquired, net of cash acquired $ 57,272
Revenue and net income for this acquisition were not significant for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Pro forma results of operations for this acquisition have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements.
2018 Acquisition of ESP Completion Technologies LLC
On July 2, 2018, we acquired certain assets of ESP Completion Technologies LLC (“ESPCT”), a subsidiary of C&J Energy Services, for cash consideration of $ 8.0 million. ESPCT consists of a portfolio of early stage technologies that maximize the run life of artificial lift systems, primarily electric submersible pumps. This acquisition is included in the Drilling and Downhole segment. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as well as the pro forma results of operations for this acquisition have not been presented because they are not material to the consolidated financial statements.
Dispositions
2019 Disposition of interest in Ashtead Technology
On September 3, 2019, we sold our aggregate 40 % interest in Ashtead to the majority owners of Ashtead. Total consideration for Forum’s 40 % interest and the settlement of a £ 3.0 million British Pounds note receivable from Ashtead was $ 47.7 million. Forum received $ 39.3 million in cash proceeds and a new £ 6.9 million British Pounds note receivable with a three year maturity. In the third quarter of 2019, we recognized a gain of $ 1.6 million as a result of this transaction, which is classified as Gain realized on previously held equity investment in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Pro forma results of operations for this transaction have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements.
2018 Disposition of Forum Subsea Rentals
On January 3, 2018, we contributed our subsea rentals business to Ashtead to create an independent provider of subsea survey and equipment rental services. In exchange, we received a 40 % interest in the combined business, a cash payment of £ 2.7 million British Pounds and a note receivable from Ashtead of £ 3.0 million British Pounds. Our 40 % interest in Ashtead was accounted for as an equity method investment and reported as Investment in
11

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
unconsolidated subsidiary in our condensed consolidated balance sheets prior to the disposition of our equity interest discussed above. In the first quarter of 2018, we recognized a gain of $ 33.5 million as a result of the deconsolidation of our Forum Subsea Rentals business, which is classified as Gain on contribution of subsea rentals business in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. This gain was equal to the sum of the consideration received, which included the fair value of the acquired 40 % interest in Ashtead, £ 2.7 million British Pounds in cash, and the £ 3.0 million British Pounds note receivable from Ashtead, less the $ 18.1 million carrying value of the Forum subsea rentals assets at the time of closing. The fair value of such 40 % interest in Ashtead was determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows of the combined entity as of January 3, 2018. The difference between the fair value of our 40 % interest in Ashtead of $ 43.8 million and the book value of the underlying net assets resulted in a basis difference, which was allocated to fixed assets, intangible assets and goodwill based on their respective fair values as of January 3, 2018. The basis difference allocated to fixed assets and intangible assets was amortized through equity earnings (loss) over the estimated life of the respective assets prior to the disposition of our equity interest discussed above. Pro forma results of operations for this transaction have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements.

5. Inventories
Our significant components of inventory at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were as follows (in thousands):
September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018
Raw materials and parts $ 186,350 $ 212,526
Work in process 35,300 39,494
Finished goods 285,267 302,590
Gross inventories 506,917 554,610
Inventory reserve ( 63,485 ) ( 75,587 )
Inventories $ 443,432 $ 479,023

6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019, were as follows (in thousands):
Drilling & Downhole Completions Production Total
Goodwill Balance at December 31, 2018 $ 191,151 $ 259,280 $ 19,216 $ 469,647
Purchase accounting adjustments 427 187 614
Impairment ( 191,485 ) ( 260,238 ) ( 19,287 ) ( 471,010 )
Impact of non-U.S. local currency translation ( 93 ) 771 71 749
Goodwill Balance at September 30, 2019 $ $ $ $
We perform our annual impairment tests of goodwill as of October 1 or when there is an indication an impairment may have occurred. During the third quarter 2019, there was a significant decline in the quoted market prices of our common stock and a continued decline in U.S. onshore drilling and completions activity, which led us to evaluate all of our reporting units for a triggering event as of September 30, 2019. Upon evaluation, we considered these developments to be a triggering event that required us to update our goodwill impairment evaluation for all reporting units as of September 30, 2019 based on our current forecast and expectations for market conditions. As a result, we determined that the carrying value of each of our Downhole, Stimulation and Intervention, Coiled Tubing, Production Equipment and Valve Solutions reporting units exceeded their respective estimated fair value and we
12

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
recorded non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $ 191.5 million, $ 126.3 million, $ 133.9 million, $ 4.6 million, and $ 14.7 million, respectively. These charges are included in “Impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Following these impairment charges, there is no remaining goodwill balance for any of our reporting units.
There were no impairments of goodwill during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. Accumulated impairment losses on goodwill were $ 1,006.6 million and $ 535.6 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
The fair values used in the impairment analysis were determined using the net present value of the expected future cash flows for each reporting unit (classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy). We determine the fair value of each reporting unit using a discounted cash flow analysis, which requires significant assumptions and estimates about the future operations of each reporting unit. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on our current estimates, strategic plans and management’s estimates for future activity levels. Forecasted cash flows in future periods were estimated using a terminal value calculation, which considered long-term earnings growth rates.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets consisted of the following as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively (in thousands):
September 30, 2019

Intangible Assets Total $ 528,157 $ ( 169,109 ) $ 359,048
Intangible assets with definite lives are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
In the third quarter of 2019, due to the impairment indicators discussed above, we determined that certain intangibles in our Stimulation and Intervention and our Valve Solutions reporting units were impaired. As a result, we recognized an aggregate $ 53.5 million of impairment losses on these intangible assets (primarily customer relationships, technology and trademarks) in the third quarter of 2019. In the second quarter 2018, we made the decision to exit specific products within the Subsea and Downhole product lines. As a result, we recognized $ 14.5 million of impairment losses on certain intangible assets (primarily customer relationships). These charges are included in “Impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

7. Debt
Notes payable and lines of credit as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 consisted of the following (in thousands):
September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018
6.25% Senior Notes due October 2021 $ 400,000 $ 400,000
Unamortized debt premium 872 1,176

Less: current maturities ( 1,220 ) ( 1,167 )
Long-term debt $ 399,805 $ 517,544
Senior Notes Due 2021
In October 2013, we issued $ 300.0 million of 6.25 % senior unsecured notes due 2021 at par, and in November 2013, we issued an additional $ 100.0 million aggregate principal amount of the notes at a price of 103.25 % of par (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.25 % per annum, payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, and mature on October 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations, and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Facility and rank junior to, among other indebtedness, the Credit Facility to the extent of the value of the collateral securing the Credit Facility.
Credit Facility
Our credit facility ("Credit Facility") provides revolving credit commitments of $ 300.0 million (with a sublimit of up to $ 25.0 million available for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of the Company and certain of our domestic subsidiaries) (the “U.S. Line”), of which up to $ 30.0 million is available to certain of our Canadian subsidiaries for loans in U.S. or Canadian dollars (with a sublimit of up to $ 3.0 million available for the issuance of letters of credit for the account of our Canadian subsidiaries) (the “Canadian Line”). Le nder commitments under the Credit Facility, subject to certain limitations, may be increased by an additional $ 100.0 million. The Credit Facility matures in July 2021, but if our outstanding Senior Notes due October 2021 are refinanced or replaced with indebtedness maturing in or after February 2023, the final maturity of the Credit Facility will automatically extend to October 2022.
Availability under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to eligible accounts receivable in the U.S., Canada and certain other jurisdictions (subject to a cap) and eligible inventory in the U.S. and Canada. Our borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility could be reduced or eliminated, depending on future fluctuations in our balances of receivables and inventory. As of September 30, 2019, our total borrowing base wa s $ 295.6 million, of which zero was drawn and $ 16.1 million was used for security of outstanding letters of credit, resulting in availability of $ 279.5 million.
Borrowings under the U.S. Line bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) the LIBOR rate or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the greater of (i) the rate of interest per annum determined from time to time by Wells Fargo as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in San Francisco, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50 % per annum and (iii) the one-month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00 % per annum, in each case plus an applicable margin. Borrowings under the Canadian Line bear interest at a rate equal to, at Forum Canada’s option, either (a) the CDOR rate or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the greater of (i) the prime rate for Canadian dollar commercial loans made in Canada as reported from time to time by Thomson Reuters and (ii) the CDOR rate plus 1.00 %, in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for LIBOR and CDOR loans will initially range from 1.75 % to 2.25 %, depending upon average excess availability under the Credit Facility. After the first quarter in which our total leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.00 :1.00, the applicable margin for LIBOR and CDOR loans will range from 1.50 % to 2.00 %, depending upon average excess availability under the Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rate under the Credit Facility was approximately 4.43 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
The Credit Facility also provides for a commitment fee in the amount of (a) 0.375 % per annum on the unused portion of commitments if average usage of the Credit Facility is greater than 50 % and (b) 0.500 % per annum on the unused portion of commitments if average usage of the Credit Facility is less than or equal to 50 %. After the first quarter in which our total leverage ratio is less than or equal to 4.00 :1.00, the commitment fees will range from 0.25 % to 0.375 %, depending upon average usage of the Credit Facility.
If excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below the greater of 10 % of the borrowing base and $ 20.0 million, we will be required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00 :1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter until excess availability under the Credit Facility exceeds such thresholds for at least 60 consecutive days.
Deferred Loan Costs
We have incurred loan costs that have been deferred and are amortized to interest expense over the term of the Senior Notes and the Credit Facility.
Other Debt
Other debt consists primarily of various capital leases.
Letters of Credit and Guarantees
We execute letters of credit in the normal course of business to secure the delivery of product from specific vendors and also to guarantee our fulfillment of performance obligations relating to certain large contracts. We had $ 16.4 million and $ 13.6 million in total outstanding letters of credit as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
8. Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Leases with an initial term greater than 12 months are recognized in our condensed consolidated balance sheets based on lease classification as either operating or financing. Operating leases are included in operating lease assets, accrued liabilities and operating lease liabilities. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, current portion of long-term debt, and long-term debt. Some of our lease agreements include lease and non-lease components for which we have elected to not separate for all classes of underlying assets. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. We sublease certain real estate to third parties when we have no future use for the property.
Our lease portfolio primarily consists of operating leases for certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses, service facilities, office spaces, equipment and vehicles. Operating lease Right of Use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments at the commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future paym ents. Our leases have remaining terms of 1 year to 14 years and may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. The operating lease ROU assets also include any upfront lease payments made and exclude lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

9. Income Taxes
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a tax benefit of $ 3.4 million primarily related to the impairment of goodwill and a tax expense of $ 6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 including $ 5.9 million of tax expense to increase our valuation allowance as discussed further below. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a tax benefit of $ 1.1 million and a tax benefit of $ 12.4 million, respectively.
For interim periods, our income tax expense or benefit is computed based upon our estimated annual effective tax rate and any discrete items that impact the interim periods. The estimated annual effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is different than the comparable period in 2018 primarily due to the impairment of goodwill, and losses in jurisdictions where the recording of a tax benefit is not available. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, tax expense includes an increase in our valuation allowance of $ 5.9 million to write down our deferred tax assets in the U.S. and Saudi Arabia to what, in our judgment, is more likely than not realizable. In addition, income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 includes a $ 15.6 million tax benefit related to an adjustment of the provisional tax impact of U.S. tax reform as discussed further below. The tax benefit or expense recorded can vary from period to period depending on the Company’s relative mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings and losses by jurisdiction.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, a comprehensive U.S. tax reform package that, effective January 1, 2018, among other things, lowered the corporate income tax rate

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
(Unaudited)
from 35% to 21% and moved the country towards a territorial tax system with a one-time mandatory tax on previously deferred earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries. The effects of U.S. tax reform on us include two major categories: (i) recognition of liabilities for taxes on mandatory deemed repatriation and (ii) re-measurement of deferred taxes.
During 2018, we completed our analysis of the impact of U.S. tax reform based on further guidance provided on the new tax law by the U.S. Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service. We finalized our accounting for the effects of U.S. tax reform during 2018 based on the additional guidance issued and recognized an income tax benefit of $ 15.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.
We have deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards in the U.S. and in certain states and foreign jurisdictions. We recognize deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, including the effect of U.S. tax reform, tax-planning and recent operating results. As of September 30, 2019, we do not anticipate being able to fully utilize all of the losses prior to their expiration in the following jurisdictions: the U.S., the U.K., Germany, Saudi Arabia and Singapore. As a result, we have certain valuation allowances against our deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2019.
10. Fair Value Measurements
At September 30, 2019, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $ 119.0 million of debt outstanding under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility incurs interest at a variable interest rate, and therefore, the carrying amount approximates fair value. The fair value of the debt is classified as a Level 2 measurement because interest rates charged are similar to other financial instruments with similar terms and maturities.
The fair value of our Senior Notes is estimated using Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy and is based on quoted prices for those or similar instruments. At September 30, 2019, the fair value and the carrying value of our Senior Notes approximated $ 324.0 million and $ 398.6 million, respectively. At December 31, 2018, the fair value and the carrying value of our Senior Notes approximated $ 362.0 million and $ 398.1 million, respectively.
There were no other outstanding financial assets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 that required measuring the amounts at fair value. We did not change our valuation techniques associated with recurring fair value measurements from prior periods, and there were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
11. Business Segments
In the first quarter 2019, we changed our reporting segments in order to align with business activity drivers and the manner in which management reviews and evaluates operating performance. Forum now operates in the following three reporting segments: Drilling & Downhole, Completions and Production. This move better aligns with the key phases of the well cycle and provides improved operating efficiencies. Historically, we operated in three business segments: Drilling & Subsea, Completions, and Production & Infrastructure. We have moved the Downhole product line from Completions to Drilling & Subsea to form the new Drilling & Downhole segment. Completions retains the Stimulation & Intervention and Coiled Tubing product lines. Finally, we renamed Production & Infrastructure as the Production segment. Our historical results of operations have been recast to retrospectively reflect these changes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The Drilling & Downhole segment designs and manufactures products and provides related services to the drilling, well construction, artificial lift and subsea energy construction and services markets as well as other markets such as alternative energy, defense and communications. The Completions segment designs, manufactures and supplies products and provides related services to the completion, stimulation and intervention markets. The Production segment designs, manufactures and supplies products, and provides related equipment and services for production and infrastructure markets.
The Company’s reportable segments are strategic units that offer distinct products and services. They are managed separately since each business segment requires different marketing strategies. Operating segments have not been aggregated as part of a reportable segment. The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on operating income. This segmentation is representative of the manner in which our Chief Operating

12. Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is, and in the future could be, involved in various pending or threatened legal actions that may or may not be covered by insurance. Management has reviewed such pending judicial and legal proceedings and the availability and limits of insurance coverage, and has established reserves that are believed to be appropriate in light of those outcomes that are considered to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. The reserves accrued at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, are immaterial. It is management’s opinion that the Company’s ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13. Earnings Per Share
The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for each period presented was as follows (dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts):
Three Months Ended

2019 2018 2019 2018
Net income (loss) $ ( 532,987 ) $ ( 3,054 ) $ ( 554,609 ) $ 9,663
Basic - weighted average shares outstanding 110,295 108,856 109,977 108,666
Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock 2,135
Diluted - weighted average shares outstanding 110,295 108,856 109,977 110,801
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic $ ( 4.83 ) $ ( 0.03 ) $ ( 5.04 ) $ 0.09
Diluted $ ( 4.83 ) $ ( 0.03 ) $ ( 5.04 ) $ 0.09
The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes approximately 3.8 million shares that were anti-dilutive for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The calculation of diluted loss per share excludes all potentially dilutive shares for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, because there was a net loss for these periods.
14. Stockholders' Equity
Stock-based compensation
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company granted 1,362,621 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units and 390,896 performance share awards with a market condition.
The 1,362,621 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units include 1,128,173 shares granted to employees that vest ratably over 3 years and 234,448 shares granted to non-employee members of the Board of Directors that have a vesting period of 12 months.
The performance share awards granted may settle for between zero and two shares of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares issued pursuant to the performance share award agreements will be determined based on the total shareholder return of the Company’s common stock as compared to a group of peer companies. The performance share awards granted in February 2019 are measured over a three year performance period.
15. Related Party Transactions
The Company has sold and purchased equipment and services to and from certain affiliates of our directors. The dollar amounts related to these related party activities are not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Overview
We are a global oilfield products company, serving the drilling, downhole, subsea, completions and production sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. The Company's products include highly engineered capital equipment as well as products that are consumed in the drilling, well construction, production and transportation of oil and natural gas. We design, manufacture and distribute products and engage in aftermarket services, parts supply and related services that complement our product offering. Our product offering includes a mix of frequently replaced consumable products and highly engineered capital products that are used in the exploration, development, production and transportation of oil and natural gas. Our consumable products are used in drilling, well construction and completions activities, within the supporting infrastructure, and at processing centers and refineries. Our engineered capital products are directed at: drilling rig equipment for new rigs, upgrades and refurbishment projects; subsea construction and development projects; pressure pumping equipment; the placement of production equipment on new producing wells; and downstream capital projects. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, approximately 86% of our revenue was derived from consumable products and activity-based equipment, while the balance was primarily derived from capital products with a small amount from rental and other services.
We seek to design, manufacture and supply high quality reliable products that create value for our diverse customer base, which includes, among others, oil and natural gas operators, land and offshore drilling contractors, oilfield service companies, subsea construction and service companies, and pipeline and refinery operators.
In the first quarter 2019, we changed our reporting segments in order to align with business activity drivers and the manner in which management reviews and evaluates operating performance. Forum now operates in the following three reporting segments: Drilling & Downhole, Completions and Production. This move better aligns with the key phases of the well cycle and provides improved operating efficiencies. Historically, we operated in three business segments: Drilling & Subsea, Completions, and Production & Infrastructure. We moved the Downhole product line from Completions to Drilling & Subsea to form the new Drilling & Downhole segment. Completions retained the Stimulation & Intervention and Coiled Tubing product lines. Finally, we renamed Production & Infrastructure as the Production segment. Our historical results of operations have been recast to retrospectively reflect these changes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
A summary of the products and services offered by each segment is as follows:
Drilling & Downhole segment . This segment designs and manufactures products and provides related services to the drilling, well construction, artificial lift and subsea energy construction and services markets as well as other markets such as alternative energy, defense and communications. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) capital equipment and a broad line of expendable drilling products consumed in the drilling process; (ii) well construction casing and cementing equipment, protection equipment for artificial lift equipment and cables used in completions, and composite plugs used for zonal isolation in hydraulic fracturing; and (iii) subsea remotely operated vehicles and trenchers, specialty components and tooling, products used in subsea pipeline infrastructure, and complementary subsea technical services.
Completions segment. This segment designs, manufactures and supplies products and provides related services to the completion, stimulation and intervention markets. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) capital and consumable products sold to the pressure pumping, hydraulic fracturing and flowback services markets, including hydraulic fracturing pumps, pump consumables, cooling systems and flow iron as well as wireline cable, and pressure control equipment used in the well completion and intervention service markets; and (ii) coiled tubing strings and coiled line pipe and related services.
Production segment . This segment designs, manufactures and supplies products and provides related equipment and services for production and infrastructure markets. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) engineered process systems, production equipment and related field services, as well as specialty separation equipment; and (ii) a wide range of industrial valves focused on serving upstream, midstream, and downstream oil and natural gas customers as well as power and other general industries.

Market Conditions
The level of demand for our products is directly related to activity levels and the capital and operating budgets of our customers, which in turn are heavily influenced by energy prices and expectations as to future price trends. In addition, the availability of existing capital equipment adequate to serve exploration and production requirements, or lack thereof, drives demand for our capital equipment products.
The probability of any cyclical change in energy prices and the extent and duration of such a change are difficult to predict. Oil prices strengthened through much of 2018, giving rise to higher drilling and completions activity and spending by our customers, primarily in North America. The volume of rigs drilling for oil and natural gas in North America and the level of hydraulic fracturing and other well completion activities are drivers for our revenue from this region. In the fourth quarter of 2018, oil prices declined significantly as a result of slowing growth in global oil demand and a surge in U.S. oil production. This decline in prices occurred during the time when oil and natural gas operators were establishing their 2019 capital expenditure budgets, resulting in lower levels of drilling and completions activity in the U.S. in 2019. As a result, oilfield service companies are reducing spending on new capital equipment by utilizing idle equipment and reducing the amount of consumable items in their inventories. This decrease in spending negatively impacts the demand for our products.
Drilling and completions activity for the U.S. onshore market has recovered significantly from the low point reached in the second quarter of 2016. Activity in international regions has lagged the U.S. onshore recovery; however, increases in international regions have slowly started to materialize in 2019. Global offshore and subsea activity have recently seen a modest recovery but still remain at low levels compared to historical activity. Current demand for our drilling and completions capital equipment offerings remains far below the level achieved during the last newbuild cycle due to the oversupply of relatively new or recently upgraded equipment. In addition, publicly traded exploration and production and oilfield service companies are under pressure from their investors to keep spend within their budgets and generate positive cash flow. This factor has contributed to recent declines in U.S. onshore completions activity and has led service companies to reduce capital expenditures and defer maintenance of existing equipment. In addition, many exploration and production companies have already spent most of their 2019 budgets, putting further downward pressure on customer activity through year end.
The revenue of our Valve Solutions product line is also influenced by energy prices, but to a lesser extent compared to our other product lines, resulting in more stable operating and financial results over time. Demand for valves from the oil and natural gas industry worldwide is driven by planned investments in global refinery and petrochemical projects, as well as the construction of additional pipeline capacity. While total demand for valves is relatively stable, our valve distribution customers have also been under pressure to produce positive free cash flow. This has led them to decrease the amount of valves in their inventories, causing a decrease in orders from our valve distribution customers until their inventories reach targeted levels.
The U.S. government has imposed tariffs on imports of selected products, including those sourced from China. In response, China and other countries have imposed retaliatory tariffs on a wide range of U.S. products, including those containing steel and aluminum. These tariffs have caused our cost of raw materials to increase, primarily in our Coiled Tubing and Valve Solutions product lines. In response, we are taking actions to mitigate the impact, including through the pricing of our products, diversification of our supply chain and seeking tariff exemptions for certain products.

Revenue
Our revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $239.3 million, a decrease of $27.8 million, or 10.4%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, our Drilling & Downhole, Completions, and Production segments comprised 36.9%, 29.2%, and 33.9% of our total revenue, respectively, which compared to 30.7%, 33.6%, and 35.7% of our total revenue, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The changes in revenue by operating segment consisted of the following:
Drilling & Downhole segment — Revenue was $88.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $6.3 million, or 7.6%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was driven by a $4.9 million increase in revenue for our Subsea product line, primarily due to higher sales of non-oil and natural gas capital equipment and a $1.5 million increase in revenue for our Downhole product line due to continued sales volume growth for our artificial lift products. Revenue for our Drilling product line was flat with higher sales volumes of capital equipment, primarily to international customers, offset by lower sales of consumable products due to lower U.S. rig activity.
Completions segment — Revenue was $70.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $20.4 million, or 22.4%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease includes an $18.5 million decrease in revenue for our Stimulation and Intervention product line attributable to lower capital spending by our pressure pumping service customers, partially offset by the revenue contribution from GHT, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2018. The remaining decline was driven by a $2.0 million decrease in sales volumes for our Coiled Tubing product line primarily attributable to lower U.S. completions activity.
Production segment — Revenue was $81.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $14.3 million, or 15.0%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily driven by an $8.3 million decrease in revenue for our Production Equipment product line as a result of lower sales volumes of our surface production equipment due to a decline in well completions activity and a $6.0 million decline in sales volumes of our valve products, particularly sales into the North America midstream oil and natural gas market.
Segment operating income (loss) and segment operating margin percentage
Segment operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $(0.9) million, a decline of $4.3 million compared to segment operating income of $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, segment operating margin percentage was (0.4)% compared to 1.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The segment operating margin percentage is calculated by dividing segment operating income (loss) by revenue for the period. The change in operating margin for each segment is explained as follows:
Drilling & Downhole segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment was 4.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to (5.7)% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The improvement in operating margins is attributable to higher gross margins from increased operating leverage on higher revenues, particularly for our Subsea and Downhole product lines. In addition, operating margins improved from a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily related to lower employee related costs as a result of cost reduction actions and a $1.8 million reduction in amortization expense following intangible asset impairments recognized in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Completions segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment was (0.2)% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 12.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decline in operating margin percentage is due to decreased operating leverage on lower sales volumes of our well stimulation products and an increase in inventory reserves recognized in the third quarter of 2019. In addition, the three months ended September 30, 2019 includes incremental selling, general and administrative expenses following the fourth quarter 2018 acquisition of GHT. These declines in operating margin were partially offset by lower employee related costs as a result of cost reduction actions.
Production segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment was 2.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 5.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Segment operating margins have been negatively impacted by a decrease in operating leverage on lower revenues and incremental cost from steel tariffs in our Valve Solutions product line. These declines were partially offset by a reduction in
35


selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily lower employee related costs as a result of cost reduction actions.
Corporate — Selling, general and administrative expenses for Corporate decreased by $1.4 million, or 15.9%, to $7.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $8.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower employee related costs and a decrease in professional fees. Corporate costs include, among other items, payroll related costs for management, administration, finance, legal, and human resources personnel; professional fees for legal, accounting and related services; and marketing costs.
Other items not included in segment operating income (loss)
Several items are not included in segment operating income (loss), but are included in total operating income (loss). These items include transaction expenses, impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, and loss (gain) on the disposal of assets and other. Transaction expenses relate to legal and other advisory costs incurred in acquiring or disposing of businesses and are not considered to be part of segment operating income (loss).
In the third quarter of 2019, there was a significant decline in the quoted market prices of our common stock and a continued decline in U.S. onshore drilling and completions activity. As a result, we recognized goodwill impairments totaling $471.0 million, intangible asset impairments totaling $53.5 million and property and equipment impairments totaling $7.9 million. See Note 6 Goodwill and Intangible Assets for further information related to these charges.
Other income and expense
Other income and expense includes interest expense, foreign exchange gains and other, net and a gain realized on our previously held equity investment in Ashtead in the third quarter 2019.
We incurred $7.8 million of interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $0.2 million from the three months ended September 30, 2018.
The foreign exchange gains are primarily the result of movements in the British pound and the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar. These movements in exchange rates create foreign exchange gains or losses when applied to monetary assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the location’s functional currency, primarily U.S. dollar denominated cash, trade account receivables and net intercompany receivable balances for our entities using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.
In the third quarter of 2019, we sold our aggregate 40% interest in Ashtead and recognized a gain of $1.6 million as a result of this transaction. See Note 4 Acquisitions & Dispositions for further information related to this transaction.
Taxes
We recorded a tax benefit of $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a tax benefit of $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2019 includes $3.8 million related to the impairment of goodwill. In addition, the estimated annual effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is different than the comparable period in 2018 primarily due to the impairment of non-deductible goodwill and losses in jurisdictions where the recording of a tax benefit is not available. Furthermore, the tax expense or benefit recorded can vary from period to period depending on the Company’s relative mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings and losses by jurisdiction.

Revenue
Our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $756.8 million, a decrease of $34.5 million, or 4.4%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our Drilling & Downhole, Completions, and Production segments comprised 33.9% , 32.2%, and 33.9% of our total revenue, respectively, which compared to 31.0% , 34.8%, and 34.2% of our total revenue, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The changes in revenue by operating segment consisted of the following:
Drilling & Downhole segment — Revenue was $256.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $11.2 million, or 4.6%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase includes an $11.6 million increase for our Subsea product line due to higher sales of ROVs and other subsea capital equipment for non-oil and natural gas customers in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Revenue for our Downhole product line increased $9.7 million due to continued sales volume growth for our artificial lift products, including the revenue contribution from ESPCT which was acquired in the third quarter of 2018. These increases were partially offset by a $10.0 million decrease in revenues for our Drilling product line primarily due to lower sales volumes for our consumable products.
Completions segment — Revenue was $246.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $32.3 million, or 11.6%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decline was driven by a $31.8 million decrease in revenue for our Stimulation and Intervention product line attributable to lower capital spending by our pressure pumping service customers partially offset by the revenue contribution from GHT, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2018. Revenue for our Coiled Tubing product line decreased $0.5 million due to lower U.S. completions activity, partially offset by higher sales into international markets.
Production segment — Revenue was $256.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $14.0 million, or 5.2%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decline was primarily driven by an $8.6 million decline in sales volumes of valve products, particularly sales into the North America midstream oil and natural gas market. The remaining decline was driven by a $5.4 million decrease in sales for our Production Equipment product line as a result of lower sales volumes for our process oil treatment equipment due to slower project activity with our downstream customers.
Segment operating income (loss) and segment operating margin percentage
Segment operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $0.3 million, an improvement of $1.1 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, segment operating margin percentage was zero compared to (0.1)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The segment operating margin percentage is calculated by dividing segment operating income (loss) by revenue for the period. The change in operating margin percentage for each segment is explained as follows:
Drilling & Downhole segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment was 1.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to (9.2)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The improvement in operating margins is attributable to higher gross margins from increased operating leverage on higher revenues, particularly for our Downhole and Subsea product lines, and a more favorable sales mix on the higher sales volumes described above. In addition, segment operating margins increased due to lower selling, general and administration expenses as a result of a $6.3 million reduction in amortization expense following intangible asset impairments recognized in the fourth quarter of 2018 and lower employee related costs as a result of cost reduction actions.
Completions segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment was 3.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 12.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decline in operating margin percentage is due to decreased operating leverage on lower sales volumes of our well stimulation products and an increase in inventory reserves recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. In addition, the nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes incremental selling, general and administrative expenses following the fourth quarter 2018 acquisition of GHT.
Production segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment was 4.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 4.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Segment operating margins have been negatively impacted by lower sales volumes and an unfavorable product mix for our downstream process oil treatment equipment and incremental cost from steel tariffs in our Valve Solutions product line. These declines were partially offset by a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily lower employee related costs as a result of cost reduction actions.
38


Corporate — Selling, general and administrative expenses for Corporate were $22.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $3.5 million, or 13.4%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower employee related costs as a result of cost reduction actions and a decrease in professional fees. Corporate costs include, among other items, payroll related costs for management, administration, finance, legal, and human resources personnel; professional fees for legal, accounting and related services; and marketing costs.
Other items not included in segment operating income (loss)
Several items are not included in segment operating income (loss), but are included in total operating loss. These items include transaction expenses, impairments of goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, contingent consideration benefit and gains on the disposal of assets and other. Transaction expenses relate to legal and other advisory costs incurred in acquiring or disposing of businesses and are not considered to be part of segment operating income (loss). These costs were $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
In the third quarter of 2019, there was a significant decline in the quoted market prices of our common stock and a continued decline in U.S. onshore drilling and completions activity. As a result, we recognized goodwill impairments totaling $471.0 million, intangible asset impairments totaling $53.5 million and property and equipment impairments totaling $7.9 million. In the second quarter of 2018, we made the decision to exit specific products within the Subsea and Downhole product lines. As a result, we recognized $14.5 million of impairment losses on certain intangible assets (primarily customer relationships). See Note 6 Goodwill and Intangible Assets for further information related to these charges.
The contingent consideration benefit relates to a gain of $4.6 million recognized in the first quarter of 2019 due to reducing the estimated fair value of the contingent cash liability associated with the acquisition of GHT. Refer to Note 4 Acquisitions & Dispositions for additional information.
Other income and expense
Other income and expense includes interest expense, foreign exchange gains and other, net a gain realized on our previously held equity investment in Ashtead in the third quarter 2019 and a gain recognized on the contribution of our subsea rentals business to Ashtead in the first quarter 2018.
We incurred $24.2 million of interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $0.3 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
The foreign exchange gains are primarily the result of movements in the British pound and the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar. These movements in exchange rates create foreign exchange gains or losses when applied to monetary assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the location’s functional currency, primarily U.S. dollar denominated cash, trade account receivables and net intercompany receivable balances for our entities using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar.
In the first quarter of 2018, we recognized a gain of $33.5 million as a result of the deconsolidation of our Forum Subsea Rentals business which was contributed to Ashtead in exchange for an aggregate 40% interest in the combined business. In the third quarter of 2019, we sold our aggregate 40% interest in Ashtead and recognized a gain of $1.6 million as a result of this transaction. See Note 4 Acquisitions & Dispositions for further information related to these transactions.
Taxes
We recorded a tax expense of $6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a tax benefit of $12.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes an increase in our valuation allowance of $5.9 million to write down our deferred tax assets in the U.S. and Saudi Arabia and a tax benefit of $3.8 million related to the impairment of goodwill. The tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included a $15.6 million tax benefit related to an adjustment of the provisional tax impact of U.S. tax reform. See Note 9 Income Taxes for additional information on the impact of U.S. Tax Reform. In addition, the estimated annual effective tax rate for 2019 is significantly different than the comparable period in 2018 primarily due to the impairment of non-tax deductible goodwill and losses in jurisdictions where the recording of a tax benefit is not available. Furthermore, the tax benefit or expense recorded can vary from period to period depending on the Company’s relative mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings and losses by jurisdiction.

Our internal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and cash flows from operations, while our primary external sources include trade credit and our Credit Facility and Senior Notes described below. Our primary uses of capital have been for inventories, sales on credit to our customers and ongoing maintenance and growth capital expenditures. We continually monitor potential capital sources, including equity and debt financing, to meet our investment and target liquidity requirements. Our future success and growth will be highly dependent on our ability to continue generating positive operating cash flow and access outside sources of capital. Based on existing market conditions and our expected liquidity needs, among other factors, we may use a portion of our cash flows from operations, proceeds from divestitures, securities offerings or borrowings to reduce debt prior to scheduled maturities, and may seek opportunities to refinance all or a portion of our senior secured notes.
At September 30, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $28.9 million, availability under our Credit Facility of $279.5 million and total debt of $401.0 million. Our 2019 capital expenditures consist of, among other items, investments in certain manufacturing facilities, replacing end of life machinery and equipment, and continuing the implementation of our enterprise resource planning solution globally. We believe that cash on hand, cash generated from operations and availability under our Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund operations, working capital needs, and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.
In 2018, we expanded and diversified our product portfolio with the acquisition of two businesses for total consideration of $65.3 million. We did not have any acquisitions in the first nine month of 2019. For additional information, see Note 4 Acquisitions & Dispositions . We may pursue acquisitions in the future, which may be funded with cash and/or equity. Our ability to make significant additional acquisitions for cash may require us to pursue additional equity or debt financing, which we may not be able to obtain on terms acceptable to us or at all.
Our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are presented below (in millions):
Nine Months Ended September 30,
2019 2018
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities $ 75.7 $ (24.3)

Net cash provided by operating activities was $75.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $24.3 million of cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This improvement is primarily attributable to changes in working capital which provided cash of $33.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to an $85.1 million use of cash for the same period in 2018.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities

Senior Notes Due 2021
Our Senior Notes have $400.0 million principal amount outstanding which bear interest at a rate of 6.25% per annum, payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, and mature on October 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Facility and rank junior to, among other indebtedness, the Credit Facility to the extent of the value of the collateral securing the Credit Facility.
Credit Facility
Our Credit Facility provides revolving credit commitments of $300.0 million, including up to $30.0 million available to certain Canadian subsidiaries of the Company for loans in United States or Canadian dollars, $25.0 million available for letters of credit issued for the account of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries and $3.0 million available for letters of credit issued for the account of Canadian subsidiaries of the Company. Availability under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to eligible accounts receivable in the United States, Canada and certain other jurisdictions (subject to a cap) and eligible inventory in the United States and Canada. Our borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility could be reduced or eliminated, depending on future fluctuations in our receivables and inventory. The Credit Facility matures in July 2021, but if our outstanding Senior Notes due October 2021 are refinanced or replaced with indebtedness maturing in or after February 2023, the final maturity of the Credit Facility will automatically extend to October 2022.
If excess availability under the Credit Facility falls below the greater of 10.0% of the borrowing base and $20.0 million, we will be required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00:1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter until excess availability under the Credit Facility exceeds such thresholds for at least 60 consecutive days.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
As of September 30, 2019, we had no off-balance sheet instruments or financial arrangements, other than letters of credit entered into in the ordinary course of business. Operating leases were excluded from our balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, but are included in the balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 following the January 1, 2019 adoption of ASC 842. For additional information, refer to Note 2 Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Note 8 Leases .
Contractual obligations
Except for net repayments under the Credit Facility, as of September 30, 2019, there have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments disclosed in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
