Business Overview

Koil Energy is an energy services company that provides equipment and support services to the world’s energy and offshore industries. The Company provides innovative solutions to complex customer challenges presented between the production facility and the energy source. Koil Energy’s core services and technological solutions include distribution system installation support and engineering services, umbilical terminations, loose-tube steel flying leads, and related services. Additionally, Koil Energy’s experienced professionals can support subsea engineering, manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and maintenance projects located anywhere in the world. The Company’s broad line of solutions are engineered and manufactured primarily for major integrated, large independent, and foreign national energy companies in offshore areas throughout the world. These products are often developed in direct response to customer requests for solutions to critical needs in the field. The Company primarily serves the offshore oil and gas market; however, the Company’s product offerings and service capabilities are based on core competencies that are energy source agnostic and can be applied to additional markets, including offshore wind, offshore wave energy, hydrogen, and liquefied natural gas.

Koil Energy’s goal is to provide superior services and products to its customers in a safe, cost-effective, and timely manner. The Company believes there is significant demand for, and brand name recognition of, its established services and products due to the technical capabilities, reliability, cost-effectiveness, timeliness of delivery and execution, and operational efficiency features of these solutions.

In 2022, we changed our name from Deep Down, Inc., to Koil Energy Solutions, Inc. In connection with the name change, our ticker symbol was changed to “KLNG”.

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s operations were organized as one reportable and one operating segment.

Services

Koil Energy supports all aspects of subsea field development with its engineering and project management services, including the design, installation, and retrieval of subsea equipment and systems, connection and termination operations, well-commissioning services, and construction support. The Company works closely with all customers to provide the fastest, safest, and most cost-effective solutions to a variety of complex issues. The Company also serves a range of customers, including operators, installation contractors, and subsea equipment manufacturers.

Project Management and Engineering. Koil Energy’s project managers and engineers have extensive experience and knowledge to support customers both on and offshore. Particularly, the Company specializes in the design and engineering of steel tube flying leads, umbilicals, flexible and rigid risers, flowlines, and jumpers. Koil Energy’s comprehensive subsea engineering services oversee all project requirements from conception to final commissioning, including offshore participation during installation to ensure proper execution and safe completion of projects.

Spooling Services. Koil Energy’s engineering teams provide the planning, supervision, specialized equipment, and coordination with offshore installation personnel for a customer’s pull-in and spooling needs. The Company has the ability to manage every stage of the process from terminations, spooling operations, installation, testing, monitoring, and pull-in for umbilicals and flying leads. 

Testing and Commissioning Services. The Company can perform all aspects of testing related to connecting the umbilical termination assemblies, performing installations, and completing the commissioning of the system thereafter. This includes initial factory acceptance testing, extended factory acceptance testing, and system integration testing, and offshore installation and commissioning services. The Company also offers a variety of pumping systems to meet industry needs and offers maximum flexibility to ensure a safe and efficient commissioning program.

Storage Management. Koil Energy’s facility in Houston, Texas offers high quality warehousing and workshop capacity, external storage, and a strategic location near customers and key suppliers. Among other capabilities, the Company provides long-term specialized contract warehousing, long and short-term storage, material handling equipment, integrated inventory management, packing, and labeling.

Equipment Refurbishment and Intervention Services. The Company provides refurbishment and repurposing of recovered subsea equipment and associated support services for offshore interventions. As an emergency or intervention arises, the stored asset is engineered, reconfigured, and tested per customer specifications. Additionally, Koil Energy has developed a suite of proprietary equipment and tools available to address the critical offshore needs of its customers and minimize production disruptions due to unplanned events. A Koil Energy service technician is then deployed with the equipment to support the offshore campaign.

Products

Koil Energy designs, manufactures, fabricates, inspects, assembles, tests, and installs subsea distribution equipment used by major integrated, large independent, and foreign national energy companies in offshore areas throughout the world. The Company’s products are used during exploration, development, and production operations on offshore drilling rigs, installation and intervention vessels, and as part of the permanently installed subsea production infrastructure.

Flying Leads. Koil Energy designs, manufactures, and installs flying leads, particularly steel tube flying leads. Flying leads are umbilical jumpers with a termination plate at either end that support the transmission of hydraulic fluid and/or chemicals between the subsea equipment. The Company’s flagship product, the Loose Steel Tube Flying Lead (“LSFL®”), was developed to eliminate the residual memory left in traditional flying leads due to the bundling process. The loose lay of the tubes is more compliant allowing the bundle to lay flat on the sea floor and follow the prescribed lay path precisely. Koil Energy employs its Moray® termination system on each end of the LSFL®. The Moray® termination is a lightweight, high-strength, configurable, and field serviceable framework used to connect any commercially available multi-quick connect plate to the LSFL® bundle.  The Moray® termination assembly offers several cost and time saving benefits over traditional competitive solutions that allow the Company to lower the total installed cost of customer projects.

Umbilical Hardware. Koil Energy designs and fabricates lightweight and compact umbilical hardware that covers the entire scope of a project’s needs from the topside platform to the subsea connection. The Company’s compliant Umbilical Termination Assembly (“UTA”) allows the installation team to terminate an umbilical with a higher degree of quality, place the critical components of the base unit on the reel or on the carousel, and handle it with additional ease and safety. The UTA can then be combined with the mud mat assembly easily and offers both first-end stab and hinge-over features as well as yoke second end landing.

Koil Energy’s termination services offer the ability to refurbish existing topside umbilical terminations from multiple manufacturers and provide a completely new connection, thus extending the life of the umbilical and the subsea field. Bend Stiffener Latchers® are designed to secure a dynamic umbilical to an existing or standard flange offering significant cost savings without the need for modification to the rig interface or the use of divers. The quick-release and locking mechanism allows a single remotely operated vehicle to engage or disengage the locking mechanism resulting in significant savings to the customer.

Riser Isolation Valves and Subsea Isolation Valve Services. Koil Energy’s Riser Isolation Valve and Subsea Isolation Valve control systems are unique solutions that provide platform personnel hydraulic control and electrical indication for subsea production valves. These systems provide numerous advantages to the customer including emergency shutdown capabilities, valve positioning monitoring systems, and auxiliary positions for spare and/or future field development.

In addition to the fabrication of these systems, Koil Energy provides subsea installation engineering, consulting, and service personnel to support customers, installation contractors, valve vendors, and more. The Koil Energy team provides commissioning and technical assistance to customers and platform personnel and seeks to ensure that the systems are working properly.

Installation Aids. The Company has developed an extensive array of installation aids, including flying lead installation systems, tensioners, lay chutes, buoyancy modules, clump weights, mud mats, pumping and testing skids, control booths, fluid drum carriers, under-rollers, 200 ton, 400 ton, 3,400 ton, and 3,500 ton carousels, running and parking deployment frames, termination shelters, pipe straighteners, Subsea Deployment Basket® system, Horizontal Drive Units, and Rapid Deployment Cartridges.

Manufacturing

Koil Energy’s facilities located in Houston, Texas are integral to our operations, serving as the backbone of our manufacturing process. Strategically organized and equipped, these spaces efficiently facilitate fabrication, manufacturing, assembly, and testing of our products. Within our well-structured environment, our skilled teams harness their expertise alongside machinery and tools, ensuring precise execution at every stage. We also have a significant footprint dedicated to our clean, stainless steel welding and tube bending environment, which is separated from all carbon steel fabrication.

Our manufacturing facility is ISO 9001 certified. We enhance our standards and product quality by having our quality assurance specialists work alongside our product manufacturing personnel throughout the manufacturing process. We have the capacity to complete large turn-key projects and still have reserve space for unforeseen emergency projects requiring immediate service and the attention to which our customers are accustomed.

Customers

Demand for our deepwater and ultra-deepwater services, equipment and offshore rig equipment is dependent on the condition of the energy industry and its ability and need to make capital expenditures, as well as continual maintenance and improvements on its offshore exploration, drilling, and production operations. The level of these expenditures is generally dependent upon various factors such as expected commodity prices, exploration and production costs, and the level of offshore drilling and production activity. The prevailing view of future commodity prices is influenced by numerous factors affecting supply and demand. These factors include, but are not limited to, worldwide economic activity, interest rates, cost of capital, environmental regulation, tax policies, and production levels and prices set and maintained by producing nations and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Capital expenditures are also dependent on the cost of exploring for and producing oil and gas, the sale and expiration dates of domestic and international offshore leases, the discovery rate of new oil and gas reserves in offshore areas and technological advances. Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have historically been characterized by significant volatility.

Our principal customers are primarily major integrated, large independent, and foreign national energy companies as well as subsea equipment manufacturers and subsea equipment installation contractors involved in the offshore exploration, development, and production of natural and renewable resources. Offshore drilling contractors, engineering and construction companies, and other companies involved in maritime operations represent a smaller customer base.

Koil Energy is not dependent on any one customer or group of customers. The amount and variety of our products and services required in a given period by a customer can depend upon the customer’s capital expenditure budget as well as the results of competitive bids. Consequently, a customer may account for a material portion of revenues in one period and may represent an immaterial portion of revenues in a subsequent period. While we are not dependent on any one customer or group of customers, the loss of one or more of our significant customers could, at least on a short-term basis, have an adverse effect on the results of our operations and cash flows.

Marketing and Sales

We market our services and products worldwide through our Houston-based sales force. We periodically advertise in trade and technical publications targeting our customer base. We also participate in industry conferences and trade shows to enhance industry awareness of our products and services. Our customers generally order products and services after consulting with us on their project. Orders are typically completed within two weeks to three months depending on the type of product or service. Larger and more complex products may require significantly more time to complete. Our customers generally select our products and services based on the quality, reliability and reputation of the product or service, price, timely delivery, and advanced technology. For large production system orders, we engage our project management team to coordinate customer needs with our engineering, manufacturing, and service departments, as well as with our trusted subcontractors and vendors. Our profitability on projects is dependent on performing accurate and cost-effective bids as well as performing efficiently in accordance with bid specifications. Various factors can affect our performance on individual projects that could potentially adversely affect the profitability of a project.

Product Development and Engineering

The technological demands of the energy industry continue to increase as offshore exploration and drilling operations expand into deeper and more hostile environments. Conditions encountered in these environments could soon include well pressures of up to 20,000 psi, mixed flows of oil and gas under high pressure that may also be highly corrosive, and water depths exceeding 10,000 feet. We are continually engaged in product development activities to generate new products and to improve existing products and services to meet our customers’ needs. We also focus our activities on reducing the overall cost to the customer, which includes not only the initial capital costs, but also ongoing operating costs associated with our products.

We have an established track record of introducing new products and product enhancements. Our product development work is conducted at our facility in Houston, Texas, and in the field. Our application engineering staff also provides engineering services to customers in connection with the design and sales of our products. Our ability to develop new products and maintain technological advantages is important to our future growth and success.

We believe that the success of our business depends more on the technical competence, performance, creativity, and marketing abilities of our employees than on any individual patent, trademark, or copyright. Nevertheless, as part of our ongoing product development and manufacturing activities, our policy is to seek patents when appropriate on inventions concerning new products and product improvements. All patent rights for products developed by employees are assigned to us.

Competition

The principal competitive factors in the offshore drilling, development and production, and maritime equipment markets are quality, reliability, and reputation of the product, price, technology, and timely delivery. We face significant competition from other manufacturers of exploration, production, and maritime equipment. Several of our primary competitors are diversified multinational companies with substantially larger operating staffs and greater capital resources and have a longer history in the manufacturing of these types of equipment.

Employees

At December 31, 2024, we had a total of 63 employees, all of whom were full-time. We also work with a pool of independent contractors who enable us to scale our operations at short notice, as business needs demand. Our employees are not covered by collective bargaining agreements, and we generally consider our employee relations to be good. Our operations depend in part on our ability to attract a skilled labor force. While we believe that our wage rates are competitive and that our relationship with our skilled labor force is good, a significant increase in the wages paid by competing employers could result in a reduction of our skilled labor force or increases in the wage rates that we pay, or both.

Governmental Regulations

A significant portion of our business activities are subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations and similar agencies of foreign governments. The technical requirements of these laws and regulations are becoming increasingly expensive, complex, and stringent.  These regulations are administered by various federal, state, and local health and safety and environmental agencies and authorities, including the Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. From time to time, we are also subject to a wide range of reporting requirements, certifications and compliance as prescribed by various federal and state governmental agencies. Expenditures relating to such regulations are made in the normal course of our business and are neither material nor place us at any competitive disadvantage. We do not currently expect that compliance with such laws will require us to make material additional expenditures.

We are also affected by tax policies and other laws and regulations generally relating to the oil and gas industry, including those specifically directed to offshore operations. Adoption of laws and regulations that curtail exploration and development drilling for oil and gas could adversely affect our operations by limiting demand for our services or products.

Increased concerns about the environment have resulted in offshore drilling in certain areas being opposed by environmental groups, and certain areas have been restricted. To the extent that new or additional environmental protection laws that prohibit or restrict offshore drilling are enacted and result in increased costs to the oil and gas industry in general, our business could be materially affected. In addition, these laws may provide for “strict liability” for damages to natural resources or threats to public health and safety, rendering a party liable for the environmental damage without regard to negligence or fault on the part of such party. Sanctions for noncompliance may include revocation of permits, corrective action orders, administrative or civil penalties and criminal prosecution. Certain environmental laws provide for joint and several liabilities for remediation of spills and releases of hazardous substances. In addition, companies may be subject to claims alleging personal injury or property damage as a result of alleged exposure to hazardous substances, as well as damage to natural resources. Such laws and regulations may also expose us to liability for the conduct of or conditions caused by others, or for our acts that complied with all applicable laws at the time such acts were performed. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations may require us to obtain permits or other authorizations for certain activities and to comply with various standards or procedural requirements.

We cannot determine to what extent our future operations and earnings may be affected by new legislation, new regulations, or changes in existing regulations. We believe that our facilities are in substantial compliance with current regulatory standards. Based on our experience to date, we do not currently anticipate any material adverse effect on our business or consolidated financial position as a result of future compliance with existing environmental laws and regulations controlling the discharge of materials into the environment. However, future events, such as changes in existing laws and regulations or their interpretation, more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies, or stricter or different interpretations of existing laws and regulations, may require additional expenditures which may be material.

Intellectual Property

While we are the holder of various patents, trademarks and licenses relating to our business, we do not consider any individual intellectual property to be material to our business operations.

Our operating facility is located at 1310 Rankin Road, Houston, Texas 77073 (“Rankin Rd.”) and includes approximately 101,000 square feet of office, manufacturing, and storage space. The term of the lease is for ten years, which commenced on August 1, 2022 at a base rate of $78,000 per month with a 2% increase each subsequent year. Koil Energy uses the facility as its primary base of operations, which includes the fabrication of custom engineered products as well as other subsea equipment for both oil and gas and renewable energy applications.

We also lease, on a month-to-month basis, approximately 19,000 square feet of storage space in Mobile, AL to house our 3,400 metric ton and 3,500 metric ton carousel systems for $11,200 per month.

We believe that these facilities are suitable, adequate and of sufficient capacity to support our current operations.

From time to time, the Company is party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company expenses or accrues legal costs as incurred. Except as described below, the Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business.

General

Koil Energy is an energy services company that provides equipment and support services to the world’s energy and offshore industries. The Company provides innovative solutions to complex customer challenges presented between the production facility and the energy source. Koil Energy’s core services and technological solutions include distribution system installation support and engineering services, umbilical terminations, loose-tube steel flying leads, and related services. Additionally, Koil Energy’s experienced professionals can support subsea engineering, manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and maintenance projects located anywhere in the world. The Company’s broad line of solutions are engineered and manufactured primarily for major integrated, large independent, and foreign national energy companies in offshore areas throughout the world. These products are often developed in direct response to customer requests for solutions to critical needs in the field. The Company primarily serves the offshore oil and gas market; however, the Company’s product offerings and service capabilities are based on core competencies that are energy source agnostic and can be applied to additional markets, including offshore wind, offshore wave energy, hydrogen, and liquefied natural gas.

Industry and Executive Outlook

The energy services industry relies heavily on the capital and operating expenditure programs of energy companies. Operators’ decisions to scale back or accelerate their exploration, drilling, and production activities are significantly influenced by the overall state of the energy sector. Notably, the oil and gas industry has historically experienced fluctuations in commodity prices, driven by various global market forces.

The current consensus among our customers is that the demand for energy is increasing. Our clients are indicating that the world’s energy demand will require supply growth within oil and natural gas as well as for renewables. Oil and natural gas supply from existing wells naturally declines over time, making sustained investments more important over the coming years. The years of underinvestment in offshore production appear to have triggered a general shift and returning focus on increasing production. As a result, several key subsea basins, particularly Gulf of America, the North Sea, and off the coasts of Brazil, are being prepared to contribute significantly to this production output. Our strengthened positioning in these markets is therefore essential to achieve a sustained level of growth. A leading indicator for our main products is the number of subsea trees purchased by operators. Our product lines include vital support systems for subsea trees. According to Westwood Global Energy Group, a market analyst firm, the global annual subsea tree awards included 284 and 279 awards in 2023 and 2024, respectively. This healthy market presents good opportunities for KOIL Energy going forward, as our offering, such as subsea distribution equipment and services, are typically awarded 1 to 1 ½ years after the subsea tree awards. During the first quarter of this year, we have seen a significant increase in bidding activity. We therefore anticipate experiencing the benefits of this positive momentum throughout this year and into next year.

As part of our growth strategy, we have also been focusing on expanding our service and product offerings to better address the operating expenditures of our energy customers. We also expect this expenditure to increase due to aging infrastructure. Re-termination of an umbilical cable on an existing installation is an example of our success in the maintenance market.

The 48% year-over-year increase in our revenues for 2024 is exceptional and beyond the industry benchmark. This outstanding growth in revenue in a fairly flat market was the result of an assertive strategy and excellent work effort by our teams.

We are one year into an ambitious 3-year strategy where continued profitable revenue growth is the objective. The strategy has been concentrated on further developing the systems that address the critical needs of our customers, while upselling more product and associated services. In April 2024 we announced the award of a major contract for a Subsea Safety Control System from a major international energy company. In August last year we announced the award of a significant contract for delivering Bend Stiffener Latchers (BSL®) to an operator in a new region. In October we secured a significant contract to provide umbilical re-termination (maintenance and repair) on an offshore production platform for an international oil and gas company. In December we were awarded a significant contract to supply Electrical and Hydraulic Distribution Manifolds for a project in West Africa. Although we secure numerous smaller contracts on a weekly basis, it is the major and significant awards that drive our growth.

We continue progressing towards achieving our goal of becoming the premier provider of integrated subsea distribution systems.

Results of Operations

Revenues

The 48 percent increase in revenues was primarily driven by an increase in fixed price contracts for the manufacture of subsea distribution equipment, such as flying leads and hydraulic distribution manifolds, partially offset by a decrease in service contract activity.

Cost of sales and Gross profit

The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by increased revenues. Gross profit percentage increased 6% when compared to the previous year.

The Company records depreciation expense related to revenue-generating property, plant and equipment as cost of sales, which totaled $459 and $497 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

The reduction in selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) was driven by lower administrative payroll expense, advertising expense, research and development expense, and rental expense related to the Company’s short-term lease for furniture at the Company’s operating facility.

The Company records depreciation and amortization expense related to administrative property, plant and equipment and intellectual property as SG&A, which totaled $112 and $108 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Interest expense (income), net

Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $47 compared to net interest income of $7 for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase of $40 is mainly due to an increase in interest received on the Company’s interest bearing financial instruments during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Other income, net

The Company recorded net other income of $33 and $50 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, which primarily consists of insurance policyholder dividends.

Gain/loss on sale of assets

The Company recorded loss of $1 and gain of $4 related to equipment sold by the Company during the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Modified EBITDA

Management evaluates Company performance based on a measure that is not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), which consists of earnings (net income or loss) available to common stockholders before net interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash share-based compensation expense, non-cash impairments, non-cash gains or losses on the sale of property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”), other non-cash items and one-time charges (“Modified EBITDA”). This measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. The measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income or loss, net income or loss, cash flows provided by operating, investing, or financing activities, or other cash flow data prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The amounts included in the Modified EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

We believe Modified EBITDA is a useful measure of a company’s operating performance, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, financing methods, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired. It helps investors more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest), asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization), and actions that do not affect liquidity (share-based compensation expense) from our operating results. Additionally, it helps investors identify items that are within our operational control. Depreciation and amortization charges, while a component of operating income, are fixed at the time of the asset purchase or acquisition in accordance with the depreciable lives of the related asset and as such are not a directly controllable period operating charge.

The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Modified EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

The $4,419 increase in Modified EBITDA primarily resulted from revenue and gross profit improvement associated with the increase in fixed price contracts and lower SG&A during the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As an offshore energy services provider, our revenues, profitability, cash flows, and future rate of growth are generally dependent on the condition of the global oil and gas industry and our customers’ ability to invest capital for offshore exploration, drilling and production, and maintenance of offshore drilling and production facilities. Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have historically been characterized by significant volatility. At times, we enter into large, fixed-price contracts which may require significant lead time and investment. A decline in offshore drilling and production activity could result in lower contract volume or delays in significant contracts, which could negatively impact our earnings and cash flows. Our earnings and cash flows could also be negatively affected by delays in payments by significant customers or delays in the completion of our contracts for any reason.

The Company believes it will have adequate liquidity to meet its future operating requirements. We are generally dependent on our cash flows from operations to fund our working capital requirements, and the uncertainties noted above create risks that we may not achieve our planned earnings or cash flow from operations. On May 24, 2023, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement/Security Agreement with Zions Bancorporation, N.A., d/b/a Amegy Bank Business Credit (“Amegy”), which provides for Koil Energy from time to time to sell its accounts receivable and other rights to payment to Amegy, subject to Amegy’s right to approve or reject future accounts receivable and other rights proposed for sale, in its sole discretion. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, the Company had no outstanding sales of accounts receivable to Amegy.

The principal liquidity needs of the Company are to fund ongoing operations, working capital, and capital expenditures. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company reported a $1,392 increase in cash. The Company generated $1,726 of net cash provided by operating activities, primarily driven by cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1,824 and other adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities of $930, which includes items such as non-cash lease expense, loss on sale of property, plant and equipment, share-based compensation, bad debt expense, and depreciation and amortization. This was partially offset by net income of $2,620. The Company used $373 of net cash for investing activities, primarily to fund capital expenditures. The Company also provided by $39 of net cash in financing activities for principal payments made under its finance lease obligations, proceeds from stock options exercised, and proceeds and principal payments on short-term borrowings.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company reported a $323 decrease in cash. The Company generated $203 of net cash from operating activities, primarily driven by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1,234 and other adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash provided by operating activities of $523, which includes items such as non-cash lease expense, gain on sale of property, plant and equipment, share-based compensation, bad debt expense (recovery), and depreciation and amortization. This was partially offset by a net loss of $1,554. The Company used $226 of net cash for investing activities, primarily to fund capital expenditures. The Company also used $300 of net cash in financing activities for principal payments made under its finance lease obligations.

The Company maintains a positive outlook on customer inquiries and views this as an opportunity to capitalize on its product, service, and rental offerings to address the subsea distribution and cable management needs of its customers. The reasons for this expected increase are set forth in the “Industry and Executive Outlook” section above. As such, the Company believes it will have adequate liquidity to meet its future operating requirements through a combination of cash on hand, cash expected to be generated from operations, and potential sales of PP&E. Given the inherent volatility in oil prices and global economic activity, the Company cannot predict this with certainty. To mitigate this uncertainty and preserve liquidity, the Company will concentrate capital investments on key growth needs and pursue opportunistic cost containment initiatives, which can include workforce alignment, restricting overhead spending and limiting research and development efforts to only critical items.

Summary of Critical Accounting Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that may affect assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and related allowances, contract assets and liabilities, impairments of long-lived assets, including intangibles, income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, contingencies and litigation, and share-based payments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Property, Plant and Equipment

PP&E is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, amortization, and related impairments. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Replacements and betterments are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. It is our policy to include amortization expense on assets acquired under finance leases with depreciation expense on owned assets. Additionally, we record depreciation and amortization expense related to revenue-generating assets as a component of cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

If circumstances associated with our PP&E have changed or a significant event has occurred that may affect the recoverability of the carrying amount of our PP&E, an impairment indicator exists, and we test the PP&E for impairment. Before testing for impairment, we group PP&E with other finite-lived long-lived assets (“long-lived assets”) at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of cash flows from other assets or groups of assets. Testing long-lived assets for impairment is a two-step process:

Step 1 - We test the long-lived asset group for recoverability by comparing the carrying amount of the asset group with the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows from use and the eventual disposal of the asset group. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group is determined to be greater than the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows from use and disposal, we would need to perform step 2.

Step 2 - If the long-lived group of assets fails the recoverability test in step 1, we would record an impairment expense for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the long-lived asset group.

During the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company conducted assessments of whether impairment indicators were present that indicate the carrying amount of its long-lived asset group might not be recoverable and determined that no such events or changes in circumstances were present.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are 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. To determine the proper revenue recognition method for our customer contracts, we evaluate whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as one single contract and whether the combined or single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and the decision to combine a group of contracts or separate the combined or single contract into multiple performance obligations could change the amount of revenue and profit recorded in a given period.

For most of our fixed price contracts, the customer contracts with us to provide a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project or capability even if that single project results in the delivery of multiple units. Hence, the entire contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

Fixed Price Contracts

For fixed price contracts, we generally recognize revenue over time as we perform because of continuous transfer of control to the customer. This continuous transfer of control to the customer is supported by clauses in the contract that allow the customer to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience, pay us for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit and take control of any work in process. In our fixed price contracts, the customer either controls the work in process or we deliver products with no alternative use to the Company and have rights to payment for work performed to date plus a reasonable profit as evidenced by contractual termination clauses.

Because of control transferring over time, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. We generally use the cost-to-cost measure of progress for our contracts because it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer which occurs as we incur costs on our contracts. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred.

Contracts are often modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. We consider a contract modification to exist when the modification either creates new, or changes the existing, enforceable rights and obligations. Most of our contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract due to the significant integration service provided in the context of the contract and are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price, and our measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis.

We have a company-wide standard and disciplined quarterly estimate at completion process in which management reviews the progress and execution of our performance obligations. As part of this process, management reviews information including, but not limited to, any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule, identified risks and opportunities and the related changes in estimates of revenues and costs. Changes in estimates of net sales, cost of sales and the related impact to operating income are recognized quarterly on a cumulative catch-up basis, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a performance obligation’s percentage of completion. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our performance obligations. When estimates of total costs to be incurred exceed total estimates of revenue to be earned on a performance obligation related to fixed price contracts, a provision for the entire loss on the performance obligation is recognized in the period the loss is estimated.

Service Contracts

We recognize revenue for service contracts measuring progress toward satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that best depicts the transfer of goods or services to the customer. The control over services is transferred over time when the services are rendered to the customer on a daily basis. Specifically, we recognize revenue as the services are provided as we have the right to invoice the customer for the services performed. Services are billed on a monthly basis. Payment terms for services are usually 30 days from invoice receipt but can increase to 45, 60, or 90 days depending on the customer.

Contract Balances

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts arise when revenues are recorded based on the extent of progress towards completion but cannot be invoiced under the terms of the contract. Such amounts are invoiced upon completion of contractual milestones. Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts arise when milestone billings are permissible under the contract, but the related costs have not yet been incurred. All contract costs are recognized currently on jobs formally approved by the customer and contracts are not shown as complete until virtually all anticipated costs have been incurred and the risk of loss has passed to the customer.

Assets related to costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, as well as liabilities related to billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, have been classified as current. The contract cycle for certain long-term contracts may extend beyond one year, thus complete collection of amounts related to these contracts may extend beyond one year, though such long-term contracts include contractual milestone billings as discussed above. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no contracts with terms that extended beyond one year.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The estimation of anticipated credit losses that may be incurred as we work through the invoice collection process with our customers requires us to make judgments and estimates regarding our customers’ ability to pay amounts due. We monitor our customers’ payment history and current creditworthiness, if needed, to determine that collectability is reasonably assured. We provide an allowance for credit losses based upon a review of each accounts receivable balance with respect to a customer’s ability to make payments. We also evaluate historical loss rates as well as consider forward-looking factors specific to the customers, the overall economic environment, and management expectations to determine expected losses. When certain accounts are determined to require an allowance, they are expensed by a provision for bad debts in that period.  At December 31, 2024 and 2023, we estimated the allowance for credit losses requirement to be $0. Bad debt expense totaled $0 and $1 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We believe that our allowance for credit losses is adequate to cover the anticipated credit losses under current conditions; however, uncertainties regarding changes in the financial condition of our customers, either adverse or positive, could impact the amount and timing of any additional credit losses that may be required.

Income Taxes

We follow the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method considers the differences between financial statement treatment and tax treatment of certain transactions. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date.

We record a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of our deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will expire before realization of the benefit or that future deductibility is not probable. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends upon our ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in the future. This requires management to use estimates and make assumptions regarding significant future events such as the taxability of entities operating in the various taxing jurisdictions. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all reasonably available positive and negative evidence, including our past operating results, the existence of cumulative losses in the most recent years and our forecast of future taxable income. In estimating future taxable income, we develop assumptions, including the amount of future state, and federal pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment. When the likelihood of the realization of existing deferred tax assets changes, adjustments to the valuation allowance are charged in the period in which the determination is made, either to income or goodwill, depending upon when that portion of the valuation allowance was originally created.

We record an estimated tax liability or tax benefit for income and other taxes based on what we determine will likely be paid in the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate. We use our best judgment in the determination of these amounts. However, the liabilities ultimately realized and paid are dependent upon various matters, including resolution of tax audits, and may differ from amounts recorded. An adjustment to the estimated liability would be recorded as a provision or benefit to income tax expense in the period in which it becomes probable that the amount of the actual liability or benefit differs from the recorded amount.

Our future effective tax rates could be adversely affected by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets or liabilities or changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. If and when our deferred tax assets are no longer fully reserved, we will begin to provide for taxes at the full statutory rate. In addition, we are subject to the examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as set forth in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, we concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the existence of the material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described below under “Material Weakness.”

Notwithstanding the conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report were not effective, and notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below, management believes that the consolidated financial statements and related financial information included in this Annual Report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates presented, and for the periods ended on such dates, in conformity with GAAP.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.

Our management conducted an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as set forth in Item 308(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act and Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on this assessment, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below under “Material Weakness”.

Material Weaknesses

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The following material weaknesses were identified:

Remediation Plan

In 2025, we intend to engage outside consultants to assist with various accounting and financial reporting matters and we will continue assessing the need for hiring additional internal accounting and third-party financial reporting resources, including additional training. We are in the process of replacing our recently departed VP-Finance, retained additional accounting resources in the fourth quarter of 2024 and are implementing a more efficient ERP system to streamline and automate certain processes. As we continue to obtain additional financial resources and as we continue to increase our operating activity, management, under the oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, will continue to implement measures designed to improve our internal control over financial reporting to remediate the identified material weaknesses, namely, to identify and engage, through internal hiring and the use of external third parties, a sufficient complement of accounting and financial reporting resources and to periodically assess the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.

While we believe that these efforts will improve our internal control over financial reporting, the implementation of these measures is ongoing and will continue to require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles. We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date, or that we may take in the future, will be sufficient to remediate the material weakness we have identified or avoid potential future material weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act) adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K.

Not Applicable.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

Koil Energy Solutions, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Koil Energy Solutions, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements, and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

As described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, total revenue of approximately $15,842,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, is generated from fixed price contracts. For the Company’s fixed price contracts, because of control transferring over time, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. The Company uses the cost-to-cost measure of progress for its contracts because it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer which occurs as the Company incurs costs on the contracts. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. Management’s estimation of total cost at completion is subject to many variables and requires significant judgment. There are many factors which impact management’s estimate, including, but not limited to, the ability to properly execute the engineering, design and fabrication phases consistent with customers’ expectations, the availability and costs of labor and materials resources, productivity, weather, and level of success in the installation phase.

Each of these factors can affect the accuracy of cost estimates, and ultimately, future profitability.

The principal considerations in our determination that revenue recognition, specifically determination of estimated costs to complete for fixed price contracts, is a critical audit matter are the complexity of these estimates and exercise of significant judgment by management when developing these estimates for fixed price contracts. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to the estimates of costs to complete.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. Our audit procedures related to this critical audit matter included the following, among others:
