Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Management and the Audit Committee are currently determining the impact on pre-spin-off historical financial statements regarding possible errors identified by Exterran Corporation. These errors relate to the application of percentage-of-completion accounting principles to specific engineering, procurement, and construction projects in the Middle East by the Belleli subsidiary. The extension of the credit agreement waivers is contingent upon the resolution of these accounting reviews.
