Independent Auditors’ Report

Sandy, Utah


Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Downstream Holding, LLC and Subsidiaries which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in members’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Downstream Holding, LLC and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

DOWNSTREAM HOLDING, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2016
(Dollars in thousands)


NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Downstream Holding, LLC, (“Downstream”) and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Company”) is engaged in the business of designing, engineering, manufacturing and repairing of severe-service equipment for the petroleum refining industry. The Company was formed on May 18, 2015 and owns all issued and outstanding equity interests of TapcoEnpro Tracker, LLC (“TapcoEnpro”) and DeltaValve Tracker LLC (“DeltaValve”). TapcoEnpro Tracker LLC and DeltaValve Tracker LLC own all of the equity interest of Downstream Aggregator LLC. Downstream Aggregator LLC owns all of the equity interest of the operating entities - DeltaValve LLC, TapcoEnpro LLC, and TapcoEnpro UK Ltd.

The Company’s interest in Groquip Tracker, LLC and Groth Equipment Corporation of Lousiana was sold in April 2016 (see Note 5 for further details)

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as described in Note 1. All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The operations of a former wholly-owned subsidiary, Groquip, are presented as discontinued operations within the consolidated statement income and comprehensive income.

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These consolidated financial statements present the operations of the Company for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016 (“the 2016 fiscal year”).

Use of Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. The Company routinely evaluates the estimates and assumptions related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, excess and obsolescence reserves for inventories, accrued warranty reserves, estimated total costs for ongoing long-term contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method, the value of share-based awards, the valuation of identifiable intangible assets, and litigation and other loss contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers demand deposits at banks and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains funds on deposit with certain banks at times that exceed the federally insured limits in the United States of America. The Company has not experienced any losses of such deposits.

Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable is carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition. Generally, collateral is not required and payment terms vary by customer. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts on a specific identification method which considers a number of factors, including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the financial condition of a customer, the Company’s previous loss history, and the condition of the general economy. The Company writes off accounts receivable when deemed uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such accounts receivable are recognized as a reduction in the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company does not charge interest on past due accounts receivable.

Inventories: Inventories primarily consists of components, work in process and finished goods. Inventories acquired in the acquisition (Note 4) were recorded at fair value. The Company recorded a fair value adjustment of $1,908 to increase the value of the inventory over the cost basis. $1,344 of the fair value adjustment was amortized into cost of

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands)


goods sold in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income during the 2016 fiscal year. Subsequent to the acquisition, inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost principally determined by the LIFO (last in first out) method. Provisions are made to reduce excess and obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable value. These provisions include determining the excess of current cost over stated LIFO.

Property and Equipment: Property and equipment acquired as a result of the acquisition (Note 4) are recorded at fair value. Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are computed primarily on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, or shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or lease term for leasehold improvements. When properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, the appropriate accounts are relieved of cost and accumulated depreciation, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized. Repairs, minor renewals, and betterments are expensed as incurred.

The Company reports depreciation of property, plant and equipment in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses based on the nature of the underlying assets. Depreciation primarily related to equipment used in the production of inventory is recorded in cost of sales. Depreciation related to selling and administrative functions is reported in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are as follows:

Leasehold improvements
Shorter of useful life or lease term
Auto
5 years
Buildings
25-40 years
Building improvements
10 years
Machinery and equipment
5-10 years
Office furniture and equipment
3-7 years

Business Combinations: We account for business combinations under the purchase method, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired businesses are recorded at their estimated fair value on the acquisition date with the excess of the purchase price over their estimated fair value recorded as goodwill. If the estimated fair value of assets acquired exceeds the purchase price, a bargain purchase gain is recognized in the statement of income and comprehensive income. We determine acquisition related asset and liability fair values through established valuation techniques for industrial manufacturing companies and utilize third party valuation firms to assist in the valuation of certain tangible and intangible assets.

Evaluation of Impairment of Long-Lived and Indefinite- Lived Assets: Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets, including property and equipment and identifiable amortizable intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized if the undiscounted estimated future cash flows from the use of the asset are less than the carrying amount. Management of the Company determined that no impairment of long-lived assets exists as of June 30, 2016.

Management of the Company considers qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of indefinite-lived assets is less than their carrying amount. If, as the result of the qualitative assessment, management of the Company determines that the indefinite-lived asset may be impaired, management of the Company tests for impairment by comparing the fair value with the book value. Management of the Company determined that no impairment of indefinite-lived assets exists as of June 30, 2016.

(Dollars in thousands)


Deferred Financing Costs: Deferred financing costs represent the costs incurred in connection with obtaining debt financing. The Company amortizes deferred financing costs on the effective interest rate method basis over the term of the related debt instruments. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has net deferred financing costs issuance costs of $1,218, included as a reduction of long-term debt. For the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016 the Company capitalized $1,450 of deferred financing costs and recognized amortization expense associated with deferred financing costs of $232, which also represents the total accumulated amortization as of June 30, 2016.

Accrued Warranty Reserves: The accrual for warranty reserves includes the expected costs of warranty obligations imposed by contract. Estimates are principally based on assumptions regarding the warranty costs based upon the Company’s historical experience with such claims. The Company records the accrual for warranty costs as a current liability if the anticipated settlement of those costs will be completed in the year subsequent to the consolidated financial statements; anticipated settlements beyond then are recorded as long-term liabilities, as applicable

Revenues and Costs on Construction Contracts: Revenues and costs on construction contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method measured on the basis of costs incurred to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers it to be the best available measure of progress towards completion on these contracts. Revenues and costs on contracts are subject to revision throughout the duration of the contracts, and any required adjustments are made in the period in which a revision becomes known. Estimated losses on contracts in progress are recognized in the period in which a loss becomes known.

The asset “Unbilled Receivables” represent revenues recognized in excess of the amounts billed for active projects. The liability “Deferred Revenue” represents billings in excess of revenues on active projects.

Revenue Recognition on Aftermarket Sales and Service: Revenues for aftermarket sales and service are primarily recognized as: products are shipped or as services are rendered; customers take ownership and assume risk of loss; collection of the related receivable is probable; persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; and the sales price is fixed and determinable.

Equity-Based Compensation: The Company provides compensation benefits to certain key employees under an equity-based plan providing for employee unit options. Equity-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The estimated fair values of the unit options, including the effect of estimated forfeitures, are expensed based on the performance measurements contained in the grants and which are being met by the performance of the Company.

Income Taxes: Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. 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 and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted 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 on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if the Company anticipates that it is more likely than not that we may not realize some or all of a deferred tax asset.

In accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, the Company initially recognizes the financial statement effect of a tax position when, based solely on its technical merits, it is more likely than not (a likelihood of greater than fifty percent) that the position will be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authority. Those tax positions failing to qualify for initial recognition are recognized in the first interim period in which they meet the more likely than not standard, are resolved through negotiation or litigation with the taxing authority, or upon expiration of the statute of limitations. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized occurs when an entity subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more likely than not threshold of being sustained.

If future results of operations exceed our current expectations, our existing tax valuation allowances may be adjusted, resulting in future tax benefits. Alternatively, if future results of operations are less than expected, future assessments may result in a determination that some or all of the deferred tax assets are not realizable. Consequently, we may need to establish additional tax valuation allowances for a portion or all of the gross deferred tax assets, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
 
The TapcoEnpro Tracker, LLC, DeltaValve Tracker, LLC, and Groquip Tracker, LLC entities of Downstream (refer to Note 1) all made elections to be taxed as corporations.

For more information related to our Income Taxes, see Note 17 of the consolidated financial statements.

Translation of Foreign Financial Statements: The financial statements of our UK based operating entity have been translated into U.S. dollars. The functional currency of the UK entity is its local currency, and foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of members’ equity. All assets and liabilities are translated at current rates of exchange in effect at the end of the period. Revenue and expenses are translated at the monthly average exchange rates for the period.

Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and changes in unrealized gains and losses of the foreign currency translation adjustments related to revaluing the balance sheet and income statement of our UK based entity from its functional currency. Accumulated other comprehensive loss is presented as a separate component of members' equity.

Concentrations: As of June 30, 2016, two individual customers accounted for 16% and 10%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable, and two individual vendors accounted for 8% and 6%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts payable. In addition, two individual customers accounted for 18% and 6%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

NOTE 3 - NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 reduces the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, and other Topics. This ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of enhancing consistency in presentation and classification. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-15 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 outlines a model for lessees by recognizing lease-related assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-02 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

(Dollars in thousands)


In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, as part of its Simplification Initiative. The areas for simplification in this update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all entities. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-09 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory. ASU 2015-11 more closely aligns the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The amendments in this Update require that an entity should measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. ASU 2015-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. We intend to adopt the standard prospectively after the effective date of January 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2015-11 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which amends existing guidance on income taxes to require the classification of all deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current on the balance sheet. As permitted, the Company elected to early adopt this guidance effective June 30, 2016.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") when it becomes effective. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted but not earlier than the original effective date of December 15, 2016. An entity should apply ASU 2014-09 either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of initial application. In March, April and May 2016, the FASB issued additional updates to the new revenue standard relating to reporting revenue on a gross versus net basis, identifying performance obligations and licensing arrangements, and narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients, respectively. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2014-09 and has not yet selected its transition method or determined its impact on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 - ACQUISITION

On May 29, 2015, the Company via its wholly owned subsidiary Downstream Aggregator LLC acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Tapco International, Inc., Curtiss-Wright Flow Control (UK) Limited, and Curtiss-Wright Flow Control Service Corporation (collectively, the “Sellers”), which were engaged in the business of designing, engineering, manufacturing and repairing of severe-service equipment for the petroleum refining industry. The acquisition also included all of the outstanding shares of Groquip, which was engaged in the pressure relief valve distribution and repair business. Groquip was identified as a non-core business at the acquisition date and, as such, was classified as a discontinued operation effective on the date of the acquisition (Note 5).

The total purchase price of the acquisition was $28,700 which was paid in cash funded through capital contributions and debt borrowings. The purchase price and proceeds to the Sellers were reduced by an estimated working capital adjustment at closing of $5,212. The terms of the purchase agreement provided for a final working capital adjustment

which amounted to $4,751 and was paid to the Company by the Sellers in October 2015. The two working capital adjustments resulted in a net purchase price of $18,737.

All identifiable assets and liabilities were recorded at their acquisition date fair values. Because the fair value of net assets acquired exceed the purchase price, the Company recognized a gain on the bargain purchase totaling $46,372 at the time of the acquisition. Management believes that the bargain purchase can primarily be attributed to the Sellers’ desire to quickly divest of all of its holdings in the oil and gas industry. The fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities as of the purchase date was as follows:

The fair values of the assets and liabilities assumed approximated the following:
Consideration:
 
Purchase price - cash, net of cash acquired of $7

18,730

Liabilities assumed:

The fair value of real estate was determined utilizing the market value approach. Property and equipment fair values were determined utilizing a fair value approach which included assumptions that would be made by market participants within the recognized principal or most advantageous market as if the market participants were valuing each identified asset on a piecemeal basis based on the asset’s highest and best use. The fair values of the identifiable intangible assets were estimated using an income approach. Under this method, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental cash flows attributable solely to the intangible asset over its remaining useful life. The fair value of the assets held for sale was based on the fair value of Groquip, less the costs to sell the business (Note 5). The purchase price was paid in contemplation of Company’s customer relationships, assembled workforce and growth strategy for the business.

NOTE 5 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Groquip was identified as a non-core business at the acquisition date and, as such, was classified as a discontinued operation effective on the date of the acquisition (Note 4). On April 29, 2016, the stock of Groquip and its operations were sold for $7,404. The purchase price and proceeds to the Company were increased by an estimated working capital adjustment at closing of $107. As part of the agreement, $540 of cash proceeds were placed in escrow to cover

NOTE 15 - BENEFIT PLAN

The Company maintains a 401(k) profit sharing plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is open to all full-time employees of the Company subject to certain age requirements. Participants of the Plan may elect to contribute a percentage of their salary, subject to ERISA limitations. The Company provides a matching contribution. The Company’s matching contributions are at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company. Contributions of $374 were made for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

NOTE 16 - EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has an equity-based compensation plan (the “Plan”) which provides for the grant of non-qualified unit options to selected officers and directors of the Company and any of its subsidiaries. The Company has authorized 100,000 membership units of the Company for options to be awarded under the Plan. The compensation committee of the Board of Directors of the Company administers the Plan and has the authority to determine the recipients to whom awards will be made, the terms of the vesting and forfeiture, the amounts of the awards, and other terms.

The Company awarded incentive options to certain employees of the Company, which generally vest over a five-year period or upon change in control, as defined in the option award, with a maximum contractual term of 15 years. The fair value of unit options is estimated as of the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The estimated fair values of the unit options, including the effect of estimated forfeitures, are expensed based on the performance measurements contained in the grants and which are being met by the performance of the Company.

Compensation expense (net of estimated forfeitures) related to awards under the Plan for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016 was $1,825. The total unrecognized compensation expense (net of estimated forfeitures) related to non-vested awards, as of June 30, 2016 is $1,850. The weighted average period over which the total unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized is approximately 4 years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands)


If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying non-vested awards, the Company may be required to accelerate, increase, or cancel any remaining unearned compensation expense. Future compensation expense and unrecognized compensation expense may increase to the extent that additional equity awards are granted. In addition, there are certain exercise restrictions and provisions that could result in an adjustment to the exercise price. Such provisions would be triggered by a change in control or termination of the optionee prior to a change in control as defined by the option agreements.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following key assumptions:

Expected term in years
 9.6 years

Risk free interest rate
1.97%

Expected volatility
46.85
%
Expected dividend yield
0%


The expected term of the options is based on the expected future employee exercise behavior as the Company does not have sufficient historical transactions of its own. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury rates at date of grant with maturity dates approximating the expected option term at the grant date. Volatility is based on the historical volatility of peer public entities as the Company does not have sufficient historical transactions of its own shares on which to base expected volatility. The Company paid dividends from July 1, 2015 through June 2016 to its owners of record. Because the Company does not have a stated dividend policy, it is not practical to estimate the possibility of the payment of dividends in the future.

A summary of the activity in the Plan for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016 is as follows:

ASC 740-10 prescribes that a company should use a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold based on the technical merits of the tax position taken. Tax positions that meet the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold should be measured as the largest amount of the tax benefits, determined on a cumulative probability basis, which is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of the provision for income taxes.

NOTE 18 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
