Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Litigation On March 26, 2021, the Company and Flotek Chemistry, LLC (“Flotek Chemistry”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, filed a lawsuit against Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (“ADM”), Florida Chemical Company, LLC (“FCC”) and Joshua A. Snively in state court in Harris County, Texas. The lawsuit claims damages relating to the terpene supply agreement between Flotek Chemistry and FCC and related breaches of fiduciary duty by Mr. Snively. Contemporaneously with the filing of the suit, Flotek Chemistry delivered a notice of termination of the terpene supply agreement. Subsequent to the lawsuit described above, on April 5, 2021, ADM and FCC filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery seeking to enjoin the lawsuit filed in Texas and claiming damages under the terpene supply agreement and other matters. The Company is subject to other routine litigation and other claims that arise in the normal course of business. Except as disclosed above, management is not aware of any pending or threatened lawsuits or proceedings that are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Other Commitments and Contingencies Terpene Supply Agreement At December 31, 2020, the Company’s balance sheet included an accrued liability of $9.4 million associated with the terpene supply agreement with FCC. The Company calculated the liability based on the Company’s expected usage of terpene in blended products being less than the minimum quantities of terpene required to be purchased and expected selling prices of the excess terpene as such loss was not considered recoverable. The Company’s balance sheet at June 30, 2021 included an accrued liability of $9.4 million as it did not make any payments for, or purchases of, terpene during the first and second quarters of 2021. The Company expects that settlement of the accrued liability, if any, will be determined through the litigation disclosed in the “Litigation” section of this Note. Indemnification The Company agreed to provide indemnification to National Oilwell DHT, L.P. for certain intellectual property-related claims in connection with sale of its Teledrift business unit in 2017. The total expenses in this matter are estimated at a range of $0.2 million to $0.5 million as of June 30, 2021. Concentrations and Credit Risk The majority of t he Company’s revenue is derived from its CT segment, which consists predominantly of customers within the oil and gas industry and the surface cleaner and disinfectant industry. Customers within the oil and gas industry include oilfield services companies, integrated oil and natural gas companies, independent oil and natural gas companies, and state-owned national oil companies. Customers within the surface cleaner and disinfectant industry typically include industrial and consumer markets, including hospitals, travel and hospitality, food services, e-commerce and retail, sports and entertainment. The concentration in the oil and gas industry increases credit and business risk. See Note 18, “Business Segment, Geographic and Major Customer Information,” for concentration of segment revenue from major customers. The Company is subject to concentrations of credit risk within trade accounts receivable, as the Company does not generally require collateral as support for trade receivables. In addition, the majority of the Company’s cash is invested in three major U.S. financial institutions and balances often exceed insurable amounts.
