Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2021

(Unaudited)

Reference is made herein to the notes to consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company (which may be referred to as we, us or our), without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“the Commission”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures which are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Further, the consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the periods indicated. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

The Company suggests that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The consolidated financial statements include our accounts, those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, and our majority-owned Polish subsidiary, Perma-Fix Medical. Additionally, the Company’s financial statements include the account of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), Perma-Fix ERRG for which we are the primary beneficiary (See “Note 13 - VIE” for a discussion of this VIE).

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our accounting policies are as set forth in the notes to the December 31, 2020 consolidated financial statements referred to above.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2019-12 by the Company effective January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.” This guidance addresses accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and provides clarification of the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting, and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2020-01 by the Company effective January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU No 2020-10, “Codification Improvements.” ASU 2020-10 updates various codification topics by clarifying or improving disclosure requirements. ASU 2020-10 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2020-01 by the Company effective January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards – Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Credit Losses (Topic 326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” and various subsequent amendments to the initial guidance (collectively, “Topic 326”). Topic 326 introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The new approach to estimating credit losses (referred to as the current expected credit losses model) applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables and loans. Entities are required to apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. In November 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842),” which defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for public companies that are considered smaller reporting companies as defined by the Commission to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. These ASUs are effective January 1, 2023 for the Company as a smaller reporting company (“SRC”). Under new guidance issued by the Commission in March 2020, the Company will continue to qualify as a smaller reporting company but will also be an accelerated filer for all filings with the Commission after January 1, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.” ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models and removing certain settlement condition qualifiers for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity, and simplifies the related diluted net income per share calculation for both Subtopics. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, for the Company as a smaller reporting company. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 206), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” ASU 2021-04 addresses issuer’s accounting for certain modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options. This ASU is effective for all entities, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenue

Disaggregation of Revenue

In general, the Company’s business segmentation is aligned according to the nature and economic characteristics of our services and provides meaningful disaggregation of each business segment’s results of operations. The nature of the Company’s performance obligations within our Treatment and Services Segments result in the recognition of our revenue primarily over time. The following tables present further disaggregation of our revenues by different categories for our Services and Treatment Segments:

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections results in accounts receivable and unbilled receivables (contract assets). The Company’s contract liabilities consist of deferred revenues which represents advance payment from customers in advance of the completion of our performance obligation.

The following table represents changes in our contract assets and contract liabilities balances:

	June 30,		December 31,		Year-to-date			Year-to-date
(In thousands)	2021		2020		Change ($)			Change (%)
Contract assets
Account receivables, net of allowance	$	9,244	$	9,659	$	(415	)		(4.3	)%
Unbilled receivables - current		7,332		14,453		(7,121	)		(49.3	)%

Contract liabilities
Deferred revenue	$	3,932	$	4,614	$	(682	)		(14.8	)%

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $1,763,000 and $6,074,000, respectively, related to untreated waste that was in the Company’s control as of the beginning of each respective year. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized revenue of $2,516,000 and $6,539,000, respectively, related to untreated waste that was in the Company’s control as of the beginning of each respective year. Revenue recognized in each period related to performance obligations satisfied within the respective period.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less.

Within our Services Segment, there are service contracts which provide that the Company has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date. For those contracts, the Company has utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-55-18, which allows the Company to recognize revenue in the amount for which we have the right to invoice; accordingly, the Company does not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for those contracts.

4. Leases

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease based on facts and circumstances present in that arrangement. Lease classifications, recognition, and measurement are then determined at the lease commencement date.

The Company’s operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities represent primarily leases for office and warehouse spaces used to conduct our business. Finance leases consist primarily of processing and transport equipment used by our facilities’ operations and also include a building with land for our waste treatment operations.

The components of lease cost for the Company’s leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were as follows (in thousands):

6. Capital Stock, Stock Plans and Stock Based Compensation

The Company has certain stock option plans under which it may award incentive stock options (“ISOs”) and/or non-qualified stock options (“NQSOs”) to employees, officers, outside directors, and outside consultants.

On May 4, 2021, the Company granted 6,000 NQSOs from the Company’s 2003 Outside Directors Stock Plan (“2003 Plan”) to a new director elected by the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) to fill a vacancy on the Board. The options granted were for a contractual term of ten years with a vesting period of six months. The exercise price of the options was $7.50 per share, which was equal to the Company’s closing stock price per share the day preceding the grant date, pursuant to the 2003 Plan.

The Company granted a NQSO to Robert Ferguson on July 27, 2017 from the Company’s 2017 Stock Option Plan (“2017 Plan”) for the purchase of up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (“Ferguson Stock Option”) in connection with his work as a consultant to the Company’s Test Bed Initiative (“TBI”) at our Perma-Fix Northwest Richland, Inc. (“PFNWR”) facility at an exercise price of $3.65 per share, which was the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant. The term of the Ferguson Stock Option is seven years from the grant date. The vesting of the Ferguson Stock Option is subject to the achievement of three separate milestones by certain dates. The 10,000 options under the first milestone were exercised by Robert Ferguson in 2018. The vesting date for the second and third milestones for the purchase of up to 30,000 and 60,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock was previously extended to December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company has not recognized compensation costs (fair value of approximately $262,000 at June 30, 2021) for the remaining 90,000 Ferguson Stock Option under the remaining two milestones since achievement of the performance obligation under each of the two remaining milestones is uncertain at June 30, 2021. All other terms of the Ferguson Stock Option remain unchanged.

The Company estimates fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options granted include the exercise price of the award, the expected term, the expected volatility of the Company’s stock over the option’s expected term, the risk-free interest rate over the option’s expected term, and the expected annual dividend yield. The fair value of the options granted on May 4, 2021 as discussed above and the related assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option model used to value the options granted were as follows:

		Outside Director Stock Options Granted
		May 4, 2021
Weighted-average fair value per option	$	4.97
Risk -free interest rate ⁽¹⁾		1.61	%
Expected volatility of stock ⁽²⁾		55.91	%
Dividend yield		None
Expected option life ⁽³⁾		10.0 years

⁽¹⁾	The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the grant date over the expected term of the option.

⁽²⁾	The expected volatility is based on historical volatility from our traded Common Stock over the expected term of the option.

⁽³⁾	The expected option life is based on historical exercises and post-vesting data.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 for our employee and director stock options.

	2021		2020		2021		2020
	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
Stock Options	June 30,				June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020

Total	$	42,000	$	48,000	$	87,000	$	92,000
Stock-based compensation	$	42,000	$	48,000	$	87,000	$	92,000

At June 30, 2021, the Company has approximately $215,000 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested options for employee and directors. The weighted average period over which the unrecognized compensation costs are expected to be recognized is approximately 1.6 years.

The summary of the Company’s total Stock Option Plans as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, and changes during the periods then ended, are presented below. The Company’s Plans consist of the 2010 Stock Option Plan, the 2017 Plans and the 2003 Plan:

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued a total of 26,427 shares of its Common Stock under the 2003 Plan to its outside directors as compensation for serving on our Board. The Company has recorded approximately $221,000 in compensation expenses (included in selling, general and administration (“SG&A”) expenses) in connection with the issuance of shares of its Common Stock to outside directors. See “Note 15 – Subsequent Events - 2003 Plan” for a discussion of an amendment to the 2003 Plan as approved by the Company’s Stockholder at the Company’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on July 20, 2021.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued 290 shares of its Common Stock from a cashless exercise of an option for the purchase of 500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at $3.15 per share.

7. Income Per Share

Basic income per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares during the applicable period. Diluted income per share is based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares plus the weighted-average number of potential outstanding common shares. In periods where they are anti-dilutive, such amounts are excluded from the calculations of dilutive earnings per share. The following table reconciles the income and average share amounts used to compute both basic and diluted income per share:

⁽⁴⁾

Entered into with the Company’s credit facility lender under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) (see “PPP Loan” below for information regarding forgiveness on the entire loan balance, along with accrued interest, effective June 15, 2021).

Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement

The Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement, dated May 8, 2020 (“Loan Agreement”), with PNC National Association (“PNC”), acting as agent and lender. The Loan Agreement provides the Company with the following credit facility with a maturity date of March 15, 2024: (a) up to $18,000,000 revolving credit (“revolving credit”) and (b) a term loan (“term loan”) of approximately $1,742,000, requiring monthly installments of $35,547. The maximum that the Company can borrow under the revolving credit is based on a percentage of eligible receivables (as defined) at any one time reduced by outstanding standby letters of credit and borrowing reductions that our lender may impose from time to time.

On May 4, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Loan Agreement with its lender which provided the following, among other things:

●

revised the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) calculation requirement which allows for the add-back of approximately $5,318,000 in eligible expenses that were incurred and covered by the PPP Loan that the Company received in 2020. The add-back is to be applied retroactively to the second and third quarters of 2020. (see below for a discussion of the PPP Loan); and

●

a capital expenditure line of up to $1,000,000 with advances on the line, subject to certain limitations, permitted for up to twelve months starting May 4, 2021 (the “Borrowing Period”). Only interest is payable on advances during the Borrowing Period (see annual rate of interest below on the capital expenditure line). At the end of the Borrowing Period, the total amount advanced under the line will amortize equally based on a five-year amortization schedule with principal payment due monthly plus interest. At the maturity date of the Loan Agreement, any unpaid principal balance plus interest, if any, will become due. No advance on the capital line has been made as of June 30, 2021.

In connection with the amendment, the Company paid its lender a fee of $15,000 which is being amortized over the remaining term of the Loan Agreement, as amended, as interest expense-financing fees.

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, as amended, payment of annual rate of interest due on the revolving credit is at prime (3.25% at June 30, 2021) plus 2% or London InterBank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.00% and the term loan and the capital expenditure line at prime plus 2.50% or LIBOR plus 3.50%. Under the LIBOR option of interest payment, a LIBOR floor of 0.75% applies in the event that LIBOR falls below 0.75% at any point in time.

The Company may terminate its Loan Agreement upon 90 days’ prior written notice upon payment in full of our obligations under the Loan Agreement. The Company agreed to pay PNC 1.0% of the total financing had the Company paid off its obligations on or before May 7, 2021 and 0.5% of the total financing if the Company pays off its obligations after May 7, 2021 but prior to or on May 7, 2022. No early termination fee will apply if the Company pays off its obligations under the Loan Agreement after May 7, 2022.

At June 30, 2021, the borrowing availability under the Company’s revolving credit was approximately $9,550,000 based on our eligible receivables and includes a reduction in borrowing availability of approximately $3,020,000 from outstanding standby letters of credit.

The Company’s credit facility under its Loan Agreement, as amended, with PNC contains certain financial covenants, along with customary representations and warranties. A breach of any of these financial covenants, unless waived by PNC, could result in a default under the credit facility allowing our lender to immediately require the repayment of all outstanding debt under our credit facility and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. The Company met its financial covenant requirements in the first quarter of 2021. The Company’s FCCR calculation in the first quarter of 2021 included the add-back of approximately $5,318,000 in eligible expenses that were incurred and covered by the PPP Loan that the Company received in 2020 as permitted by the amendment dated May 4, 2021 to the Company’s Loan Agreement as discussed above. The Company did not meet its FCCR requirement in the second quarter of 2021. However, this FCCR non-compliance was waived by the Company’s lender pursuant to another amendment dated August 10, 2021 to the Company’s Loan Agreement (see “Note 15 – Subsequent Events – Credit Facility” for a discussion of this waiver and additional provisions of this amendment).

PPP Loan

On April 14, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note under the PPP with PNC, our credit facility lender, which had a balance of approximately $5,318,000 (the “PPP Loan”) at March 31, 2021. The PPP was established under the CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The CARES Act was subsequently amended by the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 (“Flexibility Act”). Proceeds from the promissory note was used by the Company for eligible payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and utility costs as permitted under the Flexibility Act. The annual interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.0%

On October 5, 2020, the Company applied for forgiveness on repayment of the PPP Loan as permitted under the Flexibility Act. On July 1, 2021, the Company was notified by PNC that the entire balance of the PPP Loan of approximately $5,318,000, along with accrued interest of approximately $63,000 was forgiven by the SBA, effective June 15, 2021. Accordingly, the Company recorded the entire forgiven PPP Loan balance, along with accrued interest, totaling approximately $5,381,000 as “Gain on extinguishment of debt” on its Consolidated Statement of Operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Hazardous Waste

In connection with our waste management services, the Company processes both hazardous and non-hazardous waste, which we transport to our own, or other, facilities for destruction or disposal. As a result of disposing of hazardous substances, in the event any cleanup is required at the disposal site, the Company could be a potentially responsible party for the costs of the cleanup notwithstanding any absence of fault on our part.

Legal Matters

In the normal course of conducting our business, we are involved in various litigation. We are not a party to any litigation or governmental proceeding which our management believes could result in any judgments or fines against us that could would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity or results of future operations.

During July 2020, Tetra Tech EC, Inc. (“Tetra Tech”) filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Court”) against CH2M Hill, Inc. (“CH2M”) and four subcontractors of CH2M, including the Company (“Defendants”). The complaint alleges claims for negligence, negligent misrepresentation and equitable indemnification against all defendants related to alleged damages suffered by Tetra Tech in respect of certain draft reports prepared by defendants at the request of the U.S. Navy as part of an investigation and review of certain whistleblower complaints about Tetra Tech’s environmental restoration at the Hunter’s Point Naval Shipyard in San Francisco.

CH2M was hired by the Navy in 2016 to review Tetra Tech’s work. CH2M subcontracted with environmental consulting and cleanup firms Battelle Memorial Institute, Cabrera Services, Inc., SC&A, Inc. and the Company to assist with the review, according to the complaint.

The complaint alleges that the subject draft reports were prepared negligently and in a biased manner, made public, and caused damage to Tetra Tech’s reputation; triggering related lawsuits and costing it opportunities for both government and commercial contracts.

The Company has provided notice of this lawsuit to our insurance carrier. Our insurance carrier is providing a defense on our behalf in connection with this lawsuit, subject to a $100,000 self-insured retention and the terms and limitations contained in the insurance policy.

On January 7, 2021, Defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint in its entirety was granted without prejudice, with leave to amend. Tetra Tech subsequently filed a First Amended Complaint (“FAC”) and Defendants filed a motion to dismiss Tetra Tech’s FAC. Tetra Tech filed an opposition to Defendant’s motion to dismiss Tetra Tech’s FAC. Defendants, subsequently filed a joint reply to Tetra Tech’s motion in opposition. A decision and Order on Defendants’ motion to dismiss is pending from the Court. At this time, the Company continues to believe it does not have any liability to Tetra Tech.

Insurance

The Company has a 25-year finite risk insurance policy entered into in June 2003 (“2003 Closure Policy”) with AIG Specialty Insurance Company (“AIG”), which provides financial assurance to the applicable states for our permitted facilities in the event of unforeseen closure. The 2003 Closure Policy, as amended, provides for a maximum allowable coverage of $28,177,000 which includes available capacity to allow for annual inflation and other performance and surety bond requirements. Total coverage under the 2003 Closure Policy, as amended, was $19,898,000 at June 30, 2021. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, finite risk sinking funds contributed by the Company related to the 2003 Closure Policy which is included in other long term assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets totaled $11,467,000 and $11,446,000, respectively, which included interest earned of $1,996,000 and $1,975,000 on the finite risk sinking funds as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $2,000 and $21,000, respectively. Interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $27,000 and $83,000, respectively. If we so elect, AIG is obligated to pay the Company an amount equal to 100% of the finite risk sinking fund account balance in return for complete release of liability from both the Company and any applicable regulatory agency using this policy as an instrument to comply with financial assurance requirements.

Letter of Credits and Bonding Requirements

From time to time, the Company is required to post standby letters of credit and various bonds to support contractual obligations to customers and other obligations, including facility closures. At June 30, 2021, the total amount of standby letters of credit outstanding was approximately $3,020,000 and the total amount of bonds outstanding was approximately $43,561,000.

10. Discontinued Operations

The Company’s discontinued operations consist of all our subsidiaries included in our previous Industrial Segment which encompasses subsidiaries divested in 2011 and prior and three previously closed locations.

The Company’s discontinued operations had net losses of $127,000 and $85,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively (net of taxes of $0 for each period) and net losses of $242,000 and $199,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, (net of taxes of $0 for each period). The losses were primarily due to costs incurred in the administration and continued monitoring of our discontinued operations. The Company’s discontinued operations had no revenues for each of the periods noted above.

The following table presents the major class of assets of discontinued operations as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. No assets and liabilities were held for sale at each of the periods noted.

11. Operating Segments

In accordance with ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”, the Company defines an operating segment as a business activity: (1) from which we may earn revenue and incur expenses; (2) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and (3) for which discrete financial information is available.

Our reporting segments are defined as below:

TREATMENT SEGMENT, which includes:

	-	nuclear, low-level radioactive, mixed waste (containing both hazardous and low-level radioactive constituents), hazardous and non-hazardous waste treatment, processing and disposal services primarily through four uniquely licensed and permitted treatment and storage facilities; and

	-	Research & Development (“R&D”) activities to identify, develop and implement innovative waste processing techniques for problematic waste streams.

SERVICES SEGMENT, which includes:

Technical services, which include:

	○	professional radiological measurement and site survey of large government and commercial installations using advanced methods, technology and engineering;
	○	health physics services including health physicists, radiological engineers, nuclear engineers and health physics technicians support to government and private radioactive materials licensees;
	○	integrated Occupational Safety and Health services including industrial hygiene (“IH”) assessments; hazardous materials surveys, e.g., exposure monitoring; lead and asbestos management/abatement oversight; indoor air quality evaluations; health risk and exposure assessments; health & safety plan/program development, compliance auditing and training services; and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) citation assistance;
	○	global technical services providing consulting, engineering (civil, nuclear, mechanical, chemical, radiological and environmental), project management, waste management, environmental, and decontamination and decommissioning field, technical, and management personnel and services to commercial and government customers; and
	○	waste management services to commercial and governmental customers.

Nuclear services, which include:

	○	decontamination and decommissioning (“D&D”) of government and commercial facilities impacted with radioactive material and hazardous constituents including engineering, technology applications, specialty services, logistics, transportation, processing and disposal;
	○	license termination support of radioactive material licensed and federal facilities over the entire cycle of the termination process: project management, planning, characterization, waste stream identification and delineation, remediation/demo, final status survey, compliance demonstration, reporting, transportation, disposal and emergency response.

	-	A company owned equipment calibration and maintenance laboratory that services, maintains, calibrates, and sources (i.e., rental) health physics, IH and customized nuclear, environmental, and occupational safety and health (“NEOSH”) instrumentation.
	-	A company owned gamma spectroscopy laboratory for the analysis of oil and gas industry solids and liquids.

MEDICAL SEGMENT, which is currently involved on a limited basis in the R&D of the Company’s medical isotope production technology, has not generated any revenue and has substantially reduced its R&D costs and activities due to the need for capital to fund these activities. The Company anticipates that the Medical Segment will not resume full R&D activities until the necessary capital is obtained through its own credit facility or additional equity raise, or obtains partners willing to provide funding for its R&D.

Our reporting segments exclude our corporate headquarters and our discontinued operations (see “Note 10 – Discontinued Operations”) which do not generate revenues.

The table below presents certain financial information of our operating segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

⁽¹⁾	Amounts reflect the activity for corporate headquarters not included in the segment information.

⁽²⁾	Amounts includes approximately $5,381,000 of “Gain on extinguishment of debt” recorded in connection with the Company’s PPP Loan which was forgiven by the SBA effective June 15, 2021 (see “Note 8 – Long Term Debt – PPP Loan” for information of this loan forgiveness).

⁽³⁾	Net of financed amount of $0 and $29,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

⁽⁴⁾	Net of financed amount of $51,000 and $132,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

12. Income Taxes

The Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, to determine its quarterly provision for income taxes.

The Company had income tax expense of $13,000 and income tax benefit of $4,000 for continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and income tax benefit of $9,000 and income tax expense of $5,000 for continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates were approximately 0.4% and 0.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and 3.6% and 0.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The Company’s tax rate for each of the periods discussed above was impacted by the Company’s full valuation on its net deferred tax assets.

13. Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”)

The Company and Engineering/Remediation Resources Group, Inc. (“ERRG”) previously entered into an unpopulated joint venture agreement for project work bids within the Company’s Services Segment with the joint venture doing business as Perma-Fix ERRG, a general partnership. The Company has a 51% partnership interest in the joint venture and ERRG has a 49% partnership interest in the joint venture.

The Company determines whether joint ventures in which it has invested meet the criteria of a VIE at the start of each new venture and when a reconsideration event has occurred. A VIE is a legal entity that satisfies any of the following characteristics: (a) the legal entity does not have sufficient equity investment at risk; (b) the equity investors at risk as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest; or (c) the legal entity is structured with disproportionate voting rights.

The Company consolidates a VIE if it is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Based on the Company’s evaluation of Perma-Fix ERRG and related agreements with Perma-Fix ERRG, the Company determined that Perma-Fix ERRG continues to be a VIE in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. At June 30, 2021, Perma-Fix ERRG had total assets of $2,528,000 and total liabilities of $2,528,000 which are all recorded as current.

14. Deferral of Employment Tax Deposits

The Flexibility Act provides employers the option to defer the payment of an employer’s share of social security taxes beginning on March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020 with 50% of the amount of social security taxes deferred to become due on December 31, 2021 with the remaining 50% due on December 31, 2022. The Company elected to defer such taxes starting in mid-April 2020. At June 30, 2021, the Company has deferred payment of approximately $1,252,000 in its share of social security taxes, of which approximately $626,000 is included in “Other long-term liabilities,” with the remaining balance included in “Accrued expenses” within current liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

15. Subsequent Events

Management evaluated events occurring subsequent to June 30, 2021 through August 11, 2021, the date these consolidated financial statements were available for issuance, and other than as noted below determined that no material recognizable subsequent events occurred.

2003 Plan

During April 2021, the Company’s Board approved an amendment to the 2003 Plan which was approved by the Company’s Shareholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on July 20, 2021 (the “Meeting”). The amendment provides, among other things, the following:

	●	The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2003 Plan was increased by an additional 500,000 shares;
	●	Each outside director is to be granted an option to purchase up to 10,000 shares of Common Stock on each date the director is reelected to the Board;
	●	Each newly-elected outside director is to be granted an option to purchase up to 20,000 shares of Common Stock upon initial election to the Board; and
	●	Changes to the vesting schedule of each option granted under the 2003 Plan to outside directors.

Upon the approval of the amendment to the 2003 Plan as discussed above and upon the reelection of the Company’s seven outside directors at the Meeting, the Company issued a NQSO to each of the Company’s seven reelected outside directors for the purchase of up to 10,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Dr. Louis Centofanti, the Company’s EVP of Strategic Initiatives and also a director, was not eligible to receive an option under the 2003 Plan as an employee of the Company. Each NQSO granted was for a contractual term of ten years with one-fourth vesting annually over a four year period. The exercise price of the NQSO was $5.93 per share, which was equal to the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock the day preceding the grant date, pursuant to the 2003 Plan.

Credit Facility

On August 10, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to its Loan Agreement with its lender which provided, among other things, the following:

	●	waived the Company’s failure to meet the minimum quarterly FCCR requirement for the second quarter of 2021;
	●	removes the quarterly FCCR testing requirement for the third quarter of 2021;
	●	reinstates the quarterly FCCR testing requirement starting for the fourth quarter of 2021 and revises the methodology to be used in calculating the FCCR for the quarters ending December 31, 2021, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2022 (with no change to the minimum 1.15:1 ratio requirement for each quarter); and
	●	requires maintenance of a minimum $3,000,000 in borrowing availability under the revolving credit until the minimum FCCR requirement for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 has been met and certified to the lender.

In connection with the amendment, the Company paid its lender a fee of $15,000. All other terms of the Loan Agreement remains principally unchanged.

COVID-19 Impact

Our management team continues to proactively update our ongoing business operations and safety plans in an effort to mitigate any potential impact of COVID-19. We continue to remain focused on protecting the health and well-being of our employees and the communities in which we operate while assuring the continuity of our business operations, particularly in light of emerging new variants of the virus. Similar to most of the U.S., we have relaxed COVID-19 precautions associated with operations since more people have become vaccinated, including our employees. However, our Treatment Segment continues to see unexpected delays in waste shipments from certain customers due to impacts of COVID-19. We expect to see returns in waste receipts from these customers starting in the second half of 2021. Within our Services Segment, we continue to experience delays in procurement actions and contract awards resulting primarily from the impact of COVID-19 but have recently begun to receive new contract awards. Within our Treatment and Services Segments, we have an unprecedented number of bids currently submitted and awaiting awards. We expect procurement actions and contract awards to continue throughout the second half of 2021.

As the situations surrounding COVID-19 continues to remain fluid, the full impact and extent of the pandemic on our financial results and liquidity cannot be estimated with any degree of certainty. We continue to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, including our customers’ payment performance. However, since a significant portion of our revenues is derived from government related contracts, we do not expect our accounts receivable collections to be materially impacted due to COVID-19.

At this time, we believe we have sufficient liquidity on hand to continue business operations during the next twelve months. At June 30, 2021, our borrowing availability under our revolving credit facility was approximately $9,550,000 which was based on a percentage of eligible receivables and subject to certain reserves. We continue to assess the need in reducing operating costs during this volatile time, which may include curtailing capital expenditures, eliminating non-essential expenditures and implementing a hiring freeze as needed. Based on our current projection, we believe that we will be able to meet our current covenant requirements under our loan agreement for the next twelve months, however, such may not be the case due to, among other things, the uncertainty of COVID on our operations and/or delays in procurement actions, contract awards, or waste shipments.

Overview

Our overall revenue decreased $5,902,000 or 26.8% to $16,145,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $22,047,000 for the corresponding period of 2020 due primarily from the impact of COVID-19. The revenue decrease was primarily within our Services Segment where revenue decreased by approximately $5,768,000 or 40.6% to $8,439,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $14,207,000 for the corresponding period of 2020 primarily due to delays in procurement actions and contract awards resulting primarily from the impact of COVID-19. The completion of a certain large project in the Services Segment in the second quarter exacerbated the decrease in revenue. Revenue within our Treatment Segment decreased $134,000 or 1.7%. Our Treatment Segment’s revenue has been negatively impacted by continued waste shipment delays from certain customers since the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 at the start of the pandemic. However, we expect to see returns in waste receipts from these customers starting in the second half of 2021. Gross profit decreased $2,344,000 or 70.8% primarily due to decreases in revenues in both segments as described above. Selling, General, and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by approximately 297,000 or 11.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the corresponding period of 2020.

Our overall revenue decreased $7,629,000 or 16.3% to $39,278,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $46,907,000 for the corresponding period of 2020. Services Segment revenue decreased by $5,427,000 or 18.4% to $24,077,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $29,504,000 for the corresponding period of 2020 primarily due to delays in procurement actions and contract awards as discussed above. Additionally, as discussed above, the completion of a certain large project in the Services Segment in the second quarter of 2021 exacerbated the decrease in revenue. Treatment Segment revenue decreased by $2,202,000 or 12.7% to $15,201,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $17,403,000 for the corresponding period of 2020 primarily due to continued delays in waste shipments from certain customers as discussed above. Total gross profit decreased $4,628,000 or 58.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the corresponding period of 2020. Total SG&A expenses increased $575,000 or 10.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the corresponding period of 2020.

Our working capital was $3,394,000 at June 30, 2021 as compared to working capital of $3,672,000 at December 31, 2020. Our working capital was negatively impacted by revenue decreases in both Segments. However, the forgiveness of our Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Loan, along with accrued interest, by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) had a positive impact to our working capital (see “The CARES Act – PPP Loan” within this MD&A for a discussion of this loan forgiveness).

Business Environment

Our Treatment and Services Segments’ business continues to be heavily dependent on services that we provide to governmental clients, primarily as subcontractors for others who are prime contractors to government entities or directly as the prime contractor. We believe demand for our services will continue to be subject to fluctuations due to a variety of factors beyond our control, including, without limitation, the economic conditions, the manner in which the applicable government will be required to spend funding to remediate various sites, and/or the impact resulting from COVID-19 as discussed above. In addition, our governmental contracts and subcontracts relating to activities at governmental sites in the United States are generally subject to termination or renegotiation on 30 days’ notice at the government’s option, and our governmental contracts/task orders with the Canadian government authorities allow the authorities to terminate the contract/task orders at any time for convenience. Significant reductions in the level of governmental funding or specifically mandated levels for different programs that are important to our business could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. As previously disclosed, our Medical Segment has not generated any revenues and has substantially reduced its R&D costs and activities due to the need for capital to fund such activities. We anticipate that our Medical Segment will not resume full R&D activities until it obtains the necessary funding through obtaining its own credit facility or additional equity raise or obtaining new partners willing to fund its R&D activities. If the Medical Segment is unable to raise the necessary capital, the Medical Segment could be required to further reduce, delay or eliminate its R&D program.

We are continually reviewing methods to raise additional capital to supplement our liquidity requirements, when needed, and reducing our operating costs. We continue to aggressively bid on various contracts, including potential contracts within the international markets.

Results of Operations

The reporting of financial results and pertinent discussions are tailored to our three reportable segments: The Treatment, Services, and Medical Segments. Our Medical Segment has not generated any revenue and all costs incurred are included within R&D.

¹⁾Includes wastes generated by government clients of $544,000 and $496,000 for the three month ended June 30, 2021 and the corresponding period of 2020, respectively.

Treatment Segment revenue decreased $134,000 or 1.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 over the same period in 2020. The revenue decrease was attributed primarily to lower revenue from government waste generators resulting from lower waste volume. The increase in hazardous/non hazardous waste was primarily due to higher averaged price waste. Our Treatment Segment revenue has been negatively impacted by continued waste shipment delays from certain customers since the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Services Segment revenue decreased by approximately $5,768,000 or 40.6%. As previously disclosed, our Services Segment revenue for the second quarter was impacted primarily by delays in procurement actions and contract awards resulting from the impact of COVID-19. Our Services Segment revenues are project based; as such, the scope, duration and completion of each project vary. As a result, our Services Segment revenues are subject to differences relating to timing and project value.

Consolidated revenues decreased $7,629,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, as follows:

¹⁾Includes wastes generated by government clients of $1,289,000 and $1,119,000 for the six month ended June 30, 2021 and the corresponding period of 2020, respectively.

Treatment Segment revenue decreased $2,202,000 or 12.7 % for the six months ended June 30, 2021 over the same period in 2020 primarily due to lower waste volume. As previously disclosed, since the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 at the start of the pandemic, revenue within our Treatment Segment has been impacted by waste shipment delays from certain customers primarily due to the impact of COVID-19. Within our Treatment Segment, revenue generated from other nuclear waste increased primarily due to higher waste volume generated from commercial customers. Services Segment revenue decreased $5,427,000 or 18.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 over the same period in 2020. As previously disclosed, our Services Segment revenue for the first six months of 2021 was impacted by delays in procurement actions and contract awards resulting primarily from the impact of COVID-19. Also, our Services Segment revenues are project based; as such, the scope, duration and completion of each project vary. As a result, our Services Segment revenues are subject to differences relating to timing and project value.

Total	$	2,997		18.6	$	2,700		12.2	$	297

The overall increase in SG&A was primarily within our Services Segment where SG&A expenses increased by approximately $268,000. The increase in SG&A expenses within our Services Segment was primarily due to the following: salaries and payroll related expenses were higher by approximately $185,000 primarily due to increased hours spent for bid and proposals and higher healthcare costs; travel expenses were higher by approximately $12,000 due to ease of travel restrictions since the start of the pandemic; outside services expenses were higher by approximately $92,000 primarily due to more consulting matters related to bid and proposals; and general expenses were lower by approximately $21,000. Administrative SG&A expenses were slightly lower primarily due to the following: payroll related expenses were lower by approximately $98,000 primarily due to forfeiture of 401(k) plan matching funds contributed by us for former employees who failed to meet the 401(k) plan vesting requirements; director fees were higher by approximately $60,000 resulting from one additional director and fee increases that went into effect January 1, 2021; travel expenses were higher by approximately $13,000 due to ease of travel restrictions since the pandemic; outside services expenses were higher by approximately $14,000 resulting from more consulting/subcontract/legal matters; and general expenses were slightly higher by approximately $6,000. Treatment Segment SG&A expenses were higher due to the following: bad debt expenses were higher by approximately $69,000 as in the second quarter of 2020, certain customer accounts which had previously been reserved for were collected; travel expenses were slightly higher by approximately $5,000 due to ease of travel restrictions since the start of the pandemic; general expenses were slightly higher by approximately $10,000; and salaries and payroll related expenses were lower by approximately $50,000. Included in SG&A expenses is depreciation and amortization expense of $6,000 and $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

SG&A expenses increased $575,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding period for 2020, as follows:

Total	$	6,202		15.8	$	5,627		12.0	$	575

The overall increase in SG&A was primarily within our Services Segment where SG&A expenses increased by approximately $616,000. The increase in SG&A expenses within our Services Segment was primarily due to the following: salaries and payroll related expenses were higher by approximately $371,000 primarily due to increased hours spent for bid and proposals; outside services expenses were higher by approximately $192,000 due to more consulting matters related to bid and proposals; bad debt expenses were higher by approximately $40,000 as in the first quarter of 2020, certain customer accounts which had previously been reserved for were collected; and general expenses were slightly higher by $13,000. Administrative SG&A expenses were slightly higher primarily due to the following: director fees were higher by approximately $119,000 resulting from one additional director and fee increases that went into effect January 1, 2021; general expenses were slightly higher by approximately $5,000; payroll related expenses were lower by approximately $79,000 primarily due to forfeiture of 401(k) plan matching funds contributed by us for former employees which failed to meet the 401(k) plan vesting requirements; travel expenses were lower by approximately $10,000 due to less travel due to COVID-19; and outside services expenses were lower by approximately $28,000 resulting from fewer consulting/subcontract/legal matters. Treatment Segment SG&A expenses were lower due to the following: travel expenses were lower by approximately $44,000 due to less travel resulting from COVID-19; general expenses were lower by $101,000 in various categories; bad debt expenses were higher by approximately $50,000 as in the second quarter of 2020, certain customer accounts which had previously been reserved for were collected; salaries and payroll related expenses were higher by approximately $36,000 due to increased hours spent on bid and proposals and higher healthcare costs; and outside services expenses were higher by approximately $11,000 primarily due to more consulting matters.

R&D

R&D expenses decreased $65,000 and $146,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period of 2020.

	Three Months Ended June 30,							Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands)	2021		2020		Change			2021		2020		Change
Administrative	$	10	$	37	$	(27	)	$	24	$	44	$	(20	)
Treatment		43		52		(9	)		90		145		(55	)

Total	$	144	$	209	$	(65	)	$	295	$	441	$	(146	)

R&D costs consist primarily of employee salaries and benefits, laboratory costs, third party fees, and other related costs associated with the development of new technologies and technological enhancement of new potential waste treatment processes.

Interest Income

Interest income decreased by approximately $26,000 and $63,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period of 2020 primarily due to lower interest earned from lower finite risk sinking fund.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by approximately $34,000 and $87,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period of 2020 primarily due to lower interest expense from our declining term loan balance outstanding and lower interest rate. Also, interest expense was lower resulting from the payoff of the $2,500,000 loan at year end 2020 that we had previously entered into with Robert Ferguson on April 1, 2019.

Interest Expense- Financing Fees

Interest expense-financing fees decreased by approximately $51,000 and $112,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period 2020 primarily due to debt discount/debt issuance costs that became fully amortized as financing fees at year end 2020 in connection with the issuance of our Common Stock and a purchase Warrant as consideration for us receiving the $2,500,000 loan from Robert Ferguson dated April 1, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash flow requirements during the six months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily financed by our operations, cash on hand and credit facility availability. Subject to the impact of COVID-19 as discussed above, our cash flow requirements for the next twelve months will consist primarily of general working capital needs, scheduled principal payments on our debt obligations, remediation projects, and planned capital expenditures. We plan to fund these requirements from our operations, credit facility availability, our capital expenditure line, cash on hand and, if deemed appropriate, other sources available to us. We are continually reviewing operating costs and reviewing the possibility of further reducing operating costs and non-essential expenditures to bring them in line with revenue levels, when necessary. At this time, we believe that our cash flows from operations, our available liquidity from our credit facility, our capital expenditure line and our cash on hand should be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months. However, due to the uncertainty of COVID-19, continued delays in waste shipments from certain customers, delays in procurement actions and contract awards, and/or certain reserves that our lender has placed (see the amendment that we entered into with our lender in August 2021 in “Financing Activities” below) or may place in the future against our revolving line of credit, there are no assurances such will be the case. As a result, we continue to explore all sources, including, but not limited to, selling additional stock of ours under our currently effective shelf registration, to increase our capital or supplement our liquidity requirements and working capital. As previously disclosed, our Medical Segment, which has not generated any revenues, has substantially reduced its R&D costs and activities due to the need for capital to fund such activities. We continue to seek various sources of potential funding for our Medical Segment. We anticipate that our Medical Segment will not resume full R&D activities until it obtains the necessary funding through obtaining its own credit facility or additional equity raise or obtaining new partners willing to fund its R&D activities. If the Medical Segment is unable to raise the necessary capital, the Medical Segment could be required to further reduce, delay or eliminate its R&D program.

The following table reflects the cash flow activities during the first six months of 2021:

(In thousands)
Cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations	$	803
Cash used in operating activities of discontinued operations		(315	)
Cash used in investing activities of continuing operations		(649	)
Cash used in financing activities of continuing operations		(439	)
Effect of exchange rate changes in cash		9
Decrease in cash and finite risk sinking fund (restricted cash)	$	(591	)

At June 30, 2021, we were in a positive cash position with no revolving credit balance. At June 30, 2021, we had cash on hand of approximately $7,312,000, which includes account balances of our foreign subsidiaries totaling approximately $675,000.

Operating Activities

Accounts receivable, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, totaled $9,244,000 at June 30, 2021, a decrease of $415,000 from the December 31, 2020 balance of $9,659,000. The decrease was primarily due to timing of accounts receivable collection and timing of invoicing. Our contracts with our customers are subject to various payment terms and conditions; therefore, our accounts receivable are impacted by these terms and conditions and the related timing of accounts receivable collections. Additionally, contracts with our customers may sometimes result in modifications which can cause delays in collections.

Unbilled receivables totaled $7,332,000 at June 30, 2021, a decrease of $7,121,000 from the December 31, 2020 balance of $14,453,000. The decrease in unbilled receivables was primarily within our Services Segment due to invoicing and collection of accounts receivable on certain large projects which have been completed or are near completion.

Accounts payable, totaled $11,511,000 at June 30, 2021, a decrease of $3,871,000 from the December 31, 2020 balance of $15,382,000. Our accounts payable are impacted by the timing of payments as we are continually managing payment terms with our vendors to maximize our cash position throughout all segments.

We had working capital of $3,394,000 (which included working capital of our discontinued operations) at June 30, 2021, as compared to working capital of $3,672,000 at December 31, 2020. Our working capital was primarily negatively impacted by lower revenue generated within both of our segments in the first six months of 2021. However, this negative impact to our working capital was positively impacted by the forgiveness of the entire balance of our PPP Loan, along with accrued interest, by the SBA effective June 15, 2021 (see “CARES Act – PPP Loan” for information on this loan”).

Investing Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our purchases of capital equipment totaled approximately $679,000, of which $29,000 was subject to financing, with the remaining funded from cash from operations and our credit facility. We have budgeted approximately $2,000,000 for 2021 capital expenditures primarily for our Treatment and Services Segments to maintain operations and regulatory compliance requirements and support revenue growth. Certain of these budgeted projects may either be delayed until later years or deferred altogether. We plan to fund our capital expenditures from cash from operations and/or financing. The initiation and timing of projects are also determined by financing alternatives or funds available for such capital projects.

Financing Activities

We entered into a Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement, dated May 8, 2020 (“Loan Agreement”), with PNC National Association (“PNC”), acting as agent and lender. The Loan Agreement provides us with the following credit facility with a maturity date of March 15, 2024: (a) up to $18,000,000 revolving credit (“revolving credit”) and (b) a term loan (“term loan”) of approximately $1,742,000, requiring monthly installments of $35,547. The maximum that we can borrow under the revolving credit is based on a percentage of eligible receivables (as defined) at any one time reduced by outstanding standby letters of credit and borrowing reductions that our lender may impose from time to time.

On May 4, 2021, we entered into an amendment to our Loan Agreement with our lender which provided the following, among other things:

	●	revised our fixed charge coverage ratio (“FCCR”) calculation requirement which allows for the add-back of approximately $5,318,000 in eligible expenses that were incurred and covered by the PPP Loan that we received in 2020. The add-back is to be applied retroactively to the second and third quarters of 2020. (see below for a discussion of the PPP Loan); and
	●	a capital expenditure line of up to $1,000,000 with advances on the line, subject to certain limitations, permitted for up to twelve months starting May 4, 2021 (the “Borrowing Period”). Only interest is payable on advances during the Borrowing Period (see annual rate of interest below on the capital expenditure line). At the end of the Borrowing Period, the total amount advanced under the line will amortize equally based on a five-year amortization schedule with principal payment due monthly plus interest. At the maturity date of the Loan Agreement, any unpaid principal balance plus interest, if any, will become due. No advance on the capital line has been made as of June 30, 2021.

In connection with the amendment, we paid our lender a fee of $15,000.

Pursuant to our Loan Agreement, as amended, payment of annual rate of interest due on the revolving credit is at prime (3.25% at June 30, 2021) plus 2% or London InterBank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.00% and the term loan and capital expenditure line at prime plus 2.50% or LIBOR plus 3.50%. Under the LIBOR option of interest payment, a LIBOR floor of 0.75% applies in the event that LIBOR falls below 0.75% at any point in time.

On August 10, 2021, we entered into an amendment to our Loan Agreement with our lender which provided, among other things, the following:

	●	waived our failure to meet the minimum quarterly FCCR requirement for the second quarter of 2021;
	●	removes the quarterly FCCR testing requirement for the third quarter of 2021;
	●	reinstates the quarterly FCCR testing requirement starting for the fourth quarter of 2021 and revises the methodology to be used in calculating the FCCR for the quarters ending December 31, 2021, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2022 (with no change to the minimum 1.15:1 ratio requirement for each quarter); and
	●	requires maintenance of a minimum of $3,000,000 in borrowing availability under the revolving credit until the minimum FCCR requirement for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 has been met and certified to the lender.

In connection with the amendment, we paid our lender a fee of $15,000.

We may terminate our Loan Agreement upon 90 days’ prior written notice upon payment in full of our obligations under the Loan Agreement. We agreed to pay PNC 1.0% of the total financing had we paid off our obligations on or before May 7, 2021 and 0.5% of the total financing if we pay off our obligations after May 7, 2021 but prior to or on May 7, 2022. No early termination fee will apply if we pay off our obligations under the Loan Agreement after May 7, 2022.

At June 30, 2021, the borrowing availability under our revolving credit was approximately $9,550,000, based on our eligible receivables and includes a reduction in borrowing availability of approximately $3,020,000 from outstanding standby letters of credit.

Our credit facility under our Loan Agreement, as amended, with PNC contains certain financial covenants, along with customary representations and warranties. A breach of any of these financial covenants, unless waived by PNC, could result in a default under our credit facility allowing our lender to immediately require the repayment of all outstanding debt under our credit facility and terminate all commitments to extend further credit. We met our financial covenant requirements in the first quarter of 2021. Our FCCR calculation in the first quarter of 2021 included the add-back of approximately $5,318,000 in eligible expenses that were incurred and covered by the PPP Loan that we received in 2020 as permitted by the amendment dated May 4, 2021 as discussed above. We did not meet our FCCR requirement in the second quarter of 2021; however, this non-compliance was waived by our lender as discussed above. We expect to meet our quarterly financial covenant requirements for the next twelve months under our Loan Agreement, as amended, as discussed above.

The CARES Act

PPP Loan

On April 14, 2020, we entered into a promissory note under the PPP with PNC, our credit facility lender, which had a balance of approximately $5,318,000 (the “PPP Loan”) at March 31, 2021. The PPP was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) and is administered by the SBA. The CARES Act was subsequently amended by the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020 (“Flexibility Act”). Proceeds from the promissory note was used by us for eligible payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and utility costs as permitted under the Flexibility Act. The annual interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.0%

On October 5, 2020, we applied for forgiveness on repayment of the PPP Loan as permitted under the Flexibility Act. On July 1, 2021, we were notified by PNC that the entire balance of the PPP Loan of approximately $5,318,000, along with accrued interest of approximately $63,000 was forgiven by the SBA, effective June 15, 2021. Accordingly, we recorded the entire forgiven PPP Loan balance, along with accrued interest, totaling approximately $5,381,000 as “Gain on extinguishment of debt” on our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Deferral of Employment Tax Deposits

The Flexibility Act provides employers the option to defer the payment of an employer’s share of social security taxes beginning on March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020, with 50% of the amount of social security taxes deferred to become due on December 31, 2021 with the remaining 50% due on December 31, 2022. We elected to defer such taxes starting in mid-April 2020. At June 30, 2021, we have deferred payment of approximately $1,252,000 in our share of social security taxes, of which approximately $626,000 is included in “Other long-term liabilities,” with the remaining balance included in “Accrued expenses” within current liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

From time to time, we are required to post standby letters of credit and various bonds to support contractual obligations to customers and other obligations, including facility closures. At June 30, 2021, the total amount of standby letters of credit outstanding totaled approximately $3,020,000 and the total amount of bonds outstanding totaled approximately $43,561,000. We also provide closure and post-closure requirements through a financial assurance policy for certain of our Treatment Segment facilities through AIG. At June 30, 2021, the closure and post-closure requirements for these facilities were approximately $19,898,000.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There were no significant changes in our accounting policies or critical accounting estimates that are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for the recent accounting pronouncements that have been adopted during the first six months of 2021, or will be adopted in future periods.

Known Trends and Uncertainties

Significant Customers. Our Treatment and Services Segments have significant relationships with the U.S and Canadian governmental authorities through contracts entered into indirectly as subcontractors for others who are prime contractors or directly as the prime contractor to government authorities. As stated previously, our governmental contracts and subcontracts relating to activities at governmental sites in the United States are generally subject to termination or renegotiation on 30 days’ notice at the government’s option, and our governmental contracts/task orders with the Canadian government authorities allow the authorities to terminate the contract/task orders at any time for convenience. Our inability to continue under existing material contracts that we have with the U.S government and Canadian government authorities (directly or indirectly as a subcontractor) or significant reductions in the level of governmental funding in any given year could have a material adverse impact on our operations and financial condition.

We performed services relating to waste generated by government clients (domestic and foreign (primarily Canadian)), either directly as a prime contractor or indirectly for others as a subcontractor to government entities, representing approximately $13,671,000 or 84.7% and $33,828,000 or 86.1% of our total revenues generated during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to $19,811,000 or 89.9% and $42,313,000 or 90.2% of our total revenues generated during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

COVID-19 Impact. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business continues to be uncertain and difficult to predict, as the responses to the pandemic continue to evolve rapidly. We continue to experience delays in waste shipments from certain customers within our Treatment Segment primarily related to the impact of COVID-19. However, we expect to see returns in waste receipts from these customers in the second half of 2021. Within our Services Segment, we continue to experience delays in procurement actions and contract awards resulting primarily from the impact of COVID-19 but have recently begun to receive contract awards. We expect procurement actions and contract awards to continue throughout the second half of 2021. Within our Treatment and Services Segments, we have an unprecedented number of bids currently submitted and awaiting awards.

The severity of the impact the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic, impact from the emergence of new variants of the virus, the extent and severity of the impact on our customers, the impact on governmental programs and budgets, inoculation rate of the vaccines, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions resume, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted with any accuracy or confidence at this time. Our future results of operations and liquidity could be adversely impacted from continued delays in waste shipments, continued delays in procurement actions and contract awards, and/or recurrence of project work shut downs as well as potential partial/full shutdown of any of our facilities due to COVID-19.

Environmental Contingencies

We are engaged in the waste management services segment of the pollution control industry. As a participant in the on-site treatment, storage and disposal market and the off-site treatment and services market, we are subject to rigorous federal, state and local regulations. These regulations mandate strict compliance and therefore are a cost and concern to us. Because of their integral role in providing quality environmental services, we make every reasonable attempt to maintain complete compliance with these regulations; however, even with a diligent commitment, we, along with many of our competitors, may be required to pay fines for violations or investigate and potentially remediate our waste management facilities.

We routinely use third party disposal companies, who ultimately destroy or secure landfill residual materials generated at our facilities or at a client’s site. In the past, numerous third party disposal sites have improperly managed waste and consequently require remedial action; consequently, any party utilizing these sites may be liable for some or all of the remedial costs. Despite our aggressive compliance and auditing procedures for disposal of wastes, we could further be notified, in the future, that we are a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) at a remedial action site, which could have a material adverse effect.

Our subsidiaries where remediation expenditures will be made are at three sites within our discontinued operations. While no assurances can be made that we will be able to do so, we expect to fund the expenses to remediate these sites from funds generated from operations.

At June 30, 2021, we had total accrued environmental remediation liabilities of $781,000, a decrease of $73,000 from the December 31, 2020 balance of $854,000. The decrease represents primarily payments made on remediation projects. At June 30, 2021, $671,000 of the total accrued environmental liabilities was recorded as current.
