Disclosure Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Significant Accounting Policies | NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of Consolidation These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and all of its subsidiaries and partnerships, substantially all of which are wholly-owned. The consolidated financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same period as the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies. All significant intercompany balances and transactions and any unrealized gains and losses arising from intercompany transactions, have been eliminated. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Corporation. Control exists when Precision has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that currently are exercisable are considered. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Precision does not hold investments in any companies where it exerts significant influence and does not hold interests in any special-purpose entities. The acquisition method is used to account for acquisitions of subsidiaries and assets that meet the definition of a business under IFRS. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued, and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized immediately in the statement of earnings. Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, that the Corporation incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred. (b) Cash Cash consists of cash and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. (c) Inventory Inventory is primarily comprised of operating supplies and carried at the lower of average cost, being the cost to acquire the inventory, and net realizable value. Inventory is charged to operating expenses as items are sold or consumed at the amount of the average cost of the item. (d) Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes an expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, and borrowing costs on qualifying assets. The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Corporation, and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment (repair and maintenance) are recognized in net earnings as incurred. Property, plant, and equipment are depreciated as follows:
|  | Expected Life |  | Salvage Value |  | Basis of Depreciation
Drilling rig equipment: |  |  |  |  |  |
– Power & Tubulars |  | 5 years |  | – |  | straight-line
– Dynamic |  | 10 years |  | – |  | straight-line
– Structural |  | 20 years |  | 10% |  | straight-line
Service rig equipment |  | 20 years |  | 10% |  | straight-line
Drilling rig spare equipment |  | up to 15 years |  | – |  | straight-line
Service rig spare equipment |  | up to 15 years |  | – |  | straight-line
Rental equipment |  | up to 15 years |  | 0 to 25% |  | straight-line
Other equipment |  | 3 to 10 years |  | – |  | straight-line
Light duty vehicles |  | 4 years |  | – |  | straight-line
Heavy duty vehicles |  | 7 to 10 years |  | – |  | straight-line
Buildings |  | 10 to 20 years |  | – |  | straight-line
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated based on estimates of useful lives and salvage values. These estimates consider data and information from various sources including vendors, industry practice, and Precision’s own historical experience and may change as more experience is gained, market conditions shift, or technological advancements are made. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal to the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss. Determination of which parts of the drilling rig equipment represent significant cost relative to the entire rig and identifying the consumption patterns along with the useful lives of these significant parts, are matters of judgement. This determination can be complex and subject to differing interpretations and views, particularly when rig equipment comprises individual components for which different depreciation methods or rates are appropriate. The estimated useful lives, residual values and method and components of depreciation are reviewed annually, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. (e) Intangibles Intangible assets that are acquired by the Corporation with finite lives are initially recorded at estimated fair value and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits of the specific asset to which they relate. Intangible assets are amortized based on estimates of useful lives. These estimates consider data and information from various sources including vendors and Precision’s own historical experience and may change as more experience is gained or technological advancements are made. Amortization is recognized in net earnings using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Precision’s loan commitment fees are amortized over the term of the respective facility. Software is amortized over its expected useful life of up to 10 years . The estimated useful lives and methods of amortization are reviewed annually and adjusted prospectively if appropriate. (f) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets The carrying amounts of the Corporation’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the cash-generating unit or CGU). Judgement is required in the aggregation of assets into CGUs. If any such indication exists, then the asset or CGU’s recoverable amount is estimated. Judgement is required when evaluating whether a CGU has indications of impairment. For CGUs that contain goodwill and other intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet available for use, an impairment test is, at a minimum, completed annually as of December 31. The recoverable amount of an asset or a CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using an after-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Value in use is generally computed by reference to the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the CGU. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or a CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in net earnings. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior years are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized. (g) Borrowing Costs Interest and borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets. Capitalization ceases during any extended period of suspension of construction or when substantially all activities necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use are complete. All other interest and borrowing costs are recognized in net earnings in the period in which they are incurred. (h) Income Taxes Income tax expense is recognized in net earnings except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable earnings or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Deferred tax is recognized using the asset and liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in net earnings in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset and they relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities that are expected to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. The Corporation is subject to taxation in numerous jurisdictions. Uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulations and requires significant judgement. Differences arising between the actual results and the assumptions made, or future changes to such assumptions, could necessitate future adjustments to taxable income and expense already recorded. The Corporation establishes provisions, based on reasonable estimates, for possible consequences of audits by the tax authorities of the respective countries in which it operates. The amount of such provisions are based on various factors, such as experience of previous tax audits and differing interpretations of tax regulations by the taxable entity and the responsible tax authority. (i) Revenue from Contracts with Customers Precision recognizes revenue from a variety of sources. In general, customer invoices are issued upon rendering all performance obligations for an individual well-site job. Under the Corporation’s standard contract terms, customer payments are to be received within 30 days of the customer’s receipt of an invoice. Contract Drilling Services The Corporation contracts individual drilling rig packages, including crews and support equipment, to its customers. Depending on the customer’s drilling program, contracts may be for a single well, multiple wells or a fixed term. Revenue from contract drilling services is recognized over time from spud to rig release on a daily basis. Operating days are measured through industry standard tour sheets that document the daily activity of the rig. Revenue is recognized at the applicable day rate for each well, based on rates specified in the drilling contract. The Corporation provides services under turnkey contracts, whereby Precision is required to drill a well to an agreed upon depth under specified conditions for a fixed price, regardless of the time required or problems encountered in drilling the well. Revenue from turnkey drilling contracts is recognized over time using the input method based on costs incurred to date in relation to estimated total contract costs, as that most accurately depicts the Corporation’s performance. The Corporation also provided directional drilling services, which included the provision of directional drilling equipment, tools and personnel to the wellsite, and performance of daily directional drilling services. Directional drilling revenue was recognized over time, upon the daily completion of operating activities. Operating days were measured through daily tour sheets. Revenue was recognized at the applicable day rate, as stipulated in the directional drilling contract. The Corporation’s directional drilling business was sold in July 2021. Completion and Production Services The Corporation provides a variety of well completion and production services including well servicing. In general, service rigs do not involve long-term contracts or penalties for termination. Revenue is recognized daily upon completion of services. Operating days are measured through daily tour sheets and field tickets. Revenue is recognized at the applicable daily or hourly rate, as stipulated in the contract. The Corporation offers its customers a variety of oilfield equipment for rental. Rental revenue is recognized daily at the applicable rate stated in the rental contract. Rental days are measured through field tickets. The Corporation provides accommodation and catering services to customers in remote locations. Customers contract these services either as a package or individually for a fixed term. For accommodation services, the Corporation supplies camp equipment and revenue is recognized over time on a daily basis, once the equipment is on-site and available for use, at the applicable rate stated in the contract. For catering services, the Corporation recognizes revenue daily according to meals served. Accommodation and catering services provided are measured through field tickets. (j) Employee Benefit Plans Precision sponsors various defined contribution retirement plans for its employees. The Corporation’s contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed as employees earn the entitlement. (k) Provisions Provisions are recognized when the Corporation has a present obligation as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. (l) Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plans The Corporation has established several cash-settled share-based incentive compensation plans for non-management directors, officers, and other eligible employees. The estimated fair value of amounts payable to eligible participants under these plans are recognized as an expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities over the period that the participants become unconditionally entitled to payment. The recorded liability is re-measured at the end of each reporting period until settlement with the resultant change to the fair value of the liability recognized in net earnings for the period. When the plans are settled, the cash paid reduces the outstanding liability. The Corporation has an employee share purchase plan that allows eligible employees to purchase common shares through payroll deductions. Prior to January 1, 2012, the Corporation had an equity-settled deferred share unit plan whereby non-management directors of Precision could elect to receive all or a portion of their compensation in fully-vested deferred share units. Compensation expense was recognized based on the fair value price of the Corporation’s shares at the date of grant with a corresponding increase to contributed surplus. Upon redemption of the deferred share units into common shares, the amount previously recognized in contributed surplus is recorded as an increase to shareholders’ capital. The Corporation continues to have obligations under this plan. The Corporation has a share option plan for certain eligible employees. Under this plan, the fair value of share purchase options is calculated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and that value is recorded as compensation expense over the grant’s vesting period with an offsetting credit to contributed surplus. A forfeiture rate is estimated on the grant date and is adjusted to reflect the actual number of options that vest. Upon exercise of the equity purchase option, the associated amount is reclassified from contributed surplus to shareholders’ capital. Consideration paid by employees upon exercise of the equity purchase options is credited to shareholders’ capital. (m) Foreign Currency Translation Transactions of the Corporation’s individual entities are recorded in the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (its functional currency). Transactions in currencies other than the entities’ functional currency are translated at rates in effect at the time of the transaction. At each period end, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the prevailing period-end rates. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Gains and losses are included in net earnings except for gains and losses on translation of long-term debt designated as a hedge of foreign operations, which are deferred and included in other comprehensive income. For the purpose of preparing the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of each foreign operation that does not have a Canadian dollar functional currency are translated into Canadian dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the period end date. Revenues and expenses are translated using average exchange rates for the month of the respective transaction. Gains or losses resulting from these translation adjustments are recognized initially in other comprehensive income and reclassified from equity to net earnings on disposal or partial disposal of the foreign operation. (n) Per Share Amounts Basic per share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share amounts are calculated by using the treasury stock method for equity-based compensation arrangements. The treasury stock method assumes that any proceeds obtained on exercise of equity-based compensation arrangements would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. The weighted average number of shares outstanding is then adjusted by the difference between the number of shares issued from the exercise of equity-based compensation arrangements and shares repurchased from the related proceeds. (o) Financial Instruments i) Non-Derivative Financial Instruments: Financial assets and liabilities are classified and measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through net earnings. The classification of financial assets and liabilities is generally based on the business model in which the asset or liability is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. Financial assets held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows and whose contractual terms give rise to cash flows on specified dates that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding are measured at amortized cost. After their initial fair value measurement, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long-term debt are classified and measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Upon initial recognition of a non-derivative financial asset a loss allowance is recorded for Expected Credit Losses ( ECL ). Loss allowances for trade receivables are measured based on lifetime ECL that incorporates historical loss information and is adjusted for current economic and credit conditions. ii) Derivative Financial Instruments: The Corporation may enter into certain financial derivative contracts in order to manage the exposure to market risks from fluctuations in interest rates or exchange rates. These instruments are not used for trading or speculative purposes. Precision has not designated its financial derivative contracts as effective accounting hedges, and thus has not applied hedge accounting, even though it considers certain financial contracts to be economic hedges. As a result, financial derivative contracts are classified as fair value through net earnings and are recorded on the statement of financial position at estimated fair value. Transaction costs are recognized in net earnings when incurred. Derivatives embedded in financial assets are never separated. Rather, the financial instrument as a whole is assessed for classification. Derivatives embedded in financial liabilities are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately when their economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to the host contract. Embedded derivatives in financial liabilities are recorded on the statement of financial position at estimated fair value and changes in the fair value are recognized in earnings. (p) Hedge Accounting The Corporation utilizes foreign currency long-term debt to hedge its exposure to changes in the carrying values of the Corporation’s net investment in certain foreign operations from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. To be accounted for as a hedge, the foreign currency long-term debt must be designated and documented as a hedge and must be effective at inception and on an ongoing basis. The documentation defines the relationship between the foreign currency long-term debt and the net investment in the foreign operations, as well as the Corporation’s risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedging transaction. The Corporation formally assesses, both at inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the changes in fair value of the foreign currency long-term debt is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of the net investment in the foreign operations. The portion of gains or losses on the hedging item determined to be an effective hedge is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax, and is limited to the translation gain or loss on the net investment, while ineffective portions are recorded through net earnings. A reduction in the fair value of the net investment in the foreign operations or increase in the foreign currency long-term debt balance may result in a portion of the hedge becoming ineffective. If the hedging relationship ceases to be effective or is terminated, hedge accounting is not applied to subsequent gains or losses. The amounts recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to net earnings and the corresponding exchange gains or losses arising from the translation of the foreign operation are recorded through net earnings upon dissolution or substantial dissolution of the foreign operation. (q) Leases At inception, Precision assesses whether its contracts contain a lease. A contract contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The assessment of whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset considers whether:
☐ |  | the contract involves the use of an identified asset and the substantive substitution rights of the supplier. If the supplier has a substantive substitution right, then the asset is not identified;
☐ |  | the lessee’s right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset; and
☐ |  | the lessee’s right to direct the use of the asset, including decision-making to change how and for what purpose the asset is used.
At inception or on reassessment of a contract that contains a lease component, Precision allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices. Leases in which Precision is a lessee Precision recognizes a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease obligation at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease obligation adjusted for lease payments made on or before commencement date, incurred initial direct costs, estimated site retirement costs and any lease incentives received. The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are consistent with those of property, plant and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease obligation. The lease obligation is initially measured at the present value of the minimum lease payments not paid at commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, Precision’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, Precision uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for those leases in which it is the lessee. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease obligation comprise the following:
☐ |  | fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;
☐ |  | variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;
☐ |  | amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and
☐ |  | the exercise price under a purchase option that Precision is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in an optional renewal period if Precision is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease unless Precision is reasonably certain not to terminate early.
The lease obligation is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The measurement of lease obligations require the use of certain estimates and assumptions including discount rates, exercise of lease term extension options, and escalating lease rates. It is remeasured when there is a change in:
☐ |  | future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate;
☐ |  | the estimated amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; or
☐ |  | the assessment of whether Precision will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option.
When the lease obligation is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in net earnings if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero. Leases in which Precision is a lessor When Precision acts as a lessor, at inception, Precision evaluates the classification as either a finance or operating lease. To classify each lease, Precision makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, then the lease is a finance lease; if not, then it is an operating lease. When acting as a sub-lessor, Precision accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease then Precision classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease. If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, Precision applies IFRS 15 to allocate the consideration in the contract. Precision recognizes lease payments received under operating leases for drilling rigs as income on a systematic basis, drilling days, over the lease term as part of revenue. (r) Government Assistance and Grants Precision may receive government grants in the form of transfers of resources in return for past or future compliance with certain conditions relating to operating activities. Government grants are recognized once there is reasonable assurance that Precision will comply with the attached conditions and grants will be received. Government grants are recognized in net earnings on a systematic basis over the periods in which Precision recognizes expenses related to costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. (s) Critical Accounting Assumptions and Estimates i) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets At each reporting date, the Corporation reviews the carrying amount of assets in each CGU to determine whether an indicator of impairment exists. The Corporation’s analysis is based on relevant internal and external factors that indicate a CGU may be impaired such as the obsolescence or planned disposal of significant assets, financial performance of the CGU compared to forecasts and consideration of the Corporation’s market capitalization. When indications of impairment exist within a CGU, a recoverable amount is determined and requires assumptions to estimate future discounted cash flows. These estimates and assumptions include future drilling activity and margins and the resulting estimated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization associated with the CGU and the discount rate used to present value the estimated cash flows. In selecting a discount rate, the Corporation uses observable market data inputs to develop a rate that the Corporation believes approximates the discount rate of market participants. Although the Corporation believes the assumptions and estimates are reasonable and consistent with current conditions, internal planning, and expected future operations, such assumptions and estimations are subject to significant uncertainty and judgement. ii) Income Taxes Significant estimation and assumptions are required in determining the provision for income taxes. The recognition of deferred tax assets in respect of deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses and credits is based on the Corporation’s estimation of future taxable profit against which these differences, losses and credits may be used. The assessment is based upon existing tax laws and estimates of the Corporation’s future taxable income. These estimates may be materially different from the actual final tax return in future periods. (t) Accounting Standards Adopted in 2021 i) Simplification of Financial Disclosures about Guarantors On January 1, 2021, the Corporation adopted the Securities and Exchange Commission’s amendments to the financial disclosure requirements for guarantors and issuers of guaranteed securities, as specified in Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X. The amendments simplify disclosure requirements by replacing condensed consolidated financial information with summarized financial information and expanded qualitative non-financial disclosures about the guarantees, issuers and guarantors. This disclosure can be found in Note 27. (u) Accounting Standards and Amendments not yet Effective The IASB has issued a number of new standards and amendments to existing standards that will become effective for periods subsequent to December 31, 2021. Accordingly, these new standards and amendments were not applied when preparing these consolidated financial statements. For each standard, Precision has assessed or is in the process of assessing the impact these new standards and amendments will have on its consolidated financial statements.
