15. Fair Value Measurements

​

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

​

Investment in ECOTEC

​

As of September 30, 2025, we owned a 25% equity interest in ECOTEC in which we have elected the fair value option to account for this investment. See Note 6 (“Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates”) for further details. There were no purchases of equity interests or unrealized changes in the fair value of our investment in ECOTEC recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 or 2024. The fair value of our investment in ECOTEC at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $14.7 million.

​

The fair value determination of this investment primarily consisted of unobservable inputs, which creates uncertainty in the measurement of fair value as of the reporting date. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, which was valued through an average of an income approach (discounted cash flow method) and a market approach (guideline public company method), are the WACC and the revenue multiples. Significant increases (decreases) in these inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. This fair value measurement is classified as Level 3.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

​

Investment in Ionada

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had a fully diluted ownership equity interest in Ionada of 12%, in which we have elected the fair value measurement alternative to account for this investment. See Note 6 (“Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates”) for further details. The carrying value of our investment in Ionada at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $5.5 million, which includes cumulative transaction costs of $0.5 million. There were no upward adjustments, impairments or downward adjustments to the carrying value of the investment as of September 30, 2025.

Compressors

​

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded nonrecurring fair value measurements related to our idle compressors. Our estimate of the compressors’ fair value was primarily based on the expected net sale proceeds compared with other fleet units we recently sold and/or a review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. We discounted the expected proceeds, net of selling and other carrying costs, using a weighted-average disposal period of four years. These fair value measurements are classified as Level 3.

The fair value of our impaired compression fleet was as follows:

The significant unobservable inputs used to develop the above fair value measurements were weighted by the relative fair value of the compressors being measured. Additional quantitative information related to our significant unobservable inputs was as follows:

See Note 11 (“Long-Lived and Other Asset Impairments”) for further details.

​

Other Financial Instruments

​

The carrying amounts of our cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The carrying amount of borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate. The measurement of the fair value of these outstanding borrowings is a Level 3 measurement.

The fair value of our fixed rate debt is estimated using yields observable in active markets, which are Level 2 inputs, and was as follows:

Assets held for sale

As of June 30, 2025, we adjusted the carrying value of the disposal group to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. The determination of the fair value was based on the indicative sales value of $71.0 million from Flowco pursuant to the asset purchase agreement entered into on July 1, 2025 and unobservable inputs which are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. See Note 3 (“Business Transactions”) for further details.
