We review our long-lived assets, including property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of certain assets may not be recovered over their estimated remaining useful lives (“triggering events”). In connection with this review, assets are grouped at the lowest level at which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other asset groupings. We estimate the undiscounted future cash flows over the life of the primary asset in an asset group. These estimates of cash flows are based on historical cyclical trends in the industry as well as our expectations regarding the continuation of these trends in the future. Provisions for asset impairment are charged against income when estimated future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, are less than the asset’s net book value. Any provision for impairment is measured at fair value.
During 2024, negative market indicators such as lower industry-wide drilling rig and pressure pumping fleet count forecasts, increased volatility and pricing declines in the pressure pumping market, and continued efficiency gains and technology advancements reducing operating days led to our reduced outlook for activity. The reduction in activity forecasts, the decline in the market price of our common stock, and the results of the fair value determination of certain of our reporting units, were triggering events indicating that certain of our long-lived tangible and definite-lived intangible assets may have been impaired. We deemed it necessary to perform recoverability tests on our asset groups within our completion services reporting unit and our Latin American contract drilling asset group as of September 30, 2024. Future cash flows were estimated over the expected remaining life of the primary asset for each asset group, and we determined that, on an undiscounted basis, expected cash flows exceeded the carrying value of the asset groups. As such, no impairment was indicated for our long-lived tangible or definite-lived intangible assets.
During the first quarter of 2025, the majority of our primary market indicators stabilized as did management’s outlook on future activity. As such, we concluded there was no indication of a triggering event related to our long-lived tangible and definite-lived intangible asset groups as of March 31, 2025.
Subsequent to March 31, 2025, global economic conditions deteriorated, in part, because of recently enacted trade policies and tariffs implemented by the United States and other governments, as well as uncertainty regarding potential future changes to global trade policies and tariffs. Additionally, subsequent to March 31, 2025, several OPEC+ countries announced plans to phase out existing crude oil output cuts earlier than anticipated. These developments and geopolitical tensions have introduced increased uncertainty in global energy markets, which has contributed to a decline in our share price, lowered crude oil futures prices and
increased uncertainty regarding the future economic environment in which we operate. The recent deterioration in macroeconomic conditions and the decline in our share price occurred after the balance sheet date and do not reflect conditions that existed as of March 31, 2025. Accordingly, these developments have not been reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
While the full effects are yet to be determined, prolonged trade tensions and sustained lower crude oil futures prices could adversely affect our future outlook on activity and profitability. If these conditions persist or deteriorate further, or if other unforeseen macroeconomic conditions emerge, they could negatively impact the expected cash flows used in our recoverability tests for our asset groups. Such changes could result in impairment charges in the future, which could be material to our results of operations and financial statements as a whole. We are unable to reasonably estimate the magnitude or timing of any such potential impacts.
We will continue to monitor these developments and evaluate the implications for the recoverability of our long-lived tangible and definite-lived intangible assets in future interim periods.
