Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2024. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As further discussed below in “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting”, management excluded (1) Legacy Innovex and (2) DWS from its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In light of the overlap between a company's disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting, our evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures excludes an assessment of those disclosure controls and procedures of Legacy Innovex and DWS that are subsumed by internal control over financial reporting. Dril-Quip's total assets and revenues included in management's assessment represent approximately 40% and 22%, respectively, of the related financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. DWS’s total assets and revenues excluded from management's assessment represent 12% and 1%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024. See also “Material Weaknesses Previously Identified Related to Legacy Innovex”.

Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2024.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by or under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

On September 6, 2024, Dril-Quip and Legacy Innovex completed the Merger. Dril-Quip was the legal acquirer in the Merger; Legacy Innovex was the accounting acquirer in the Merger under U.S. GAAP. Prior to the Merger, Legacy Innovex was a privately-held company and was not subject to the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“Section 404 of SOX”), while Dril-Quip was a publicly traded company subject to Section 404 of SOX. For all filings under the Exchange Act after the Merger, the historical financial statements of the Company for the periods prior to the Merger are and will be those of Legacy Innovex. The activities of Dril-Quip are and will be included in the Company’s financial statements for all periods subsequent to the Merger.

As the Merger occurred during the third quarter of 2024, and Legacy Innovex was not previously subject to Section 404 of SOX, management concluded there was insufficient time for management to complete its assessment of the internal control over financial reporting related to Legacy Innovex, and, therefore, the Legacy Innovex internal control over financial reporting was excluded from management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. Dril-Quip's total assets and revenues represent approximately 40% and 22%, respectively, of the related financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Additionally, management has excluded DWS from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 as the Company purchased the remaining 80% of the entity in a step acquisition in November 2024. DWS is a wholly-owned subsidiary whose total assets and revenues represent 12% and 1%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth by the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Material Weaknesses Previously Identified Related to Legacy Innovex

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As described above, Legacy Innovex was excluded from management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. However, prior to the Merger, Legacy Innovex management identified the following material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, which management of the Company concluded continued to exist as of December 31, 2024: (1) Legacy Innovex did not design and maintain effective controls related to the accounting for income taxes at a sufficient level of precision or rigor; and (2) Legacy Innovex failed to employ personnel with adequate expertise to identify and evaluate complex income tax accounting matters. These material weaknesses resulted in audit adjustments to Legacy Innovex’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 for deferred tax assets and liabilities, the income tax valuation allowance and related disclosures. Additionally, these material weaknesses could result in misstatements of the aforementioned account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Management’s Plan to Remediate the Legacy Innovex Material Weaknesses

Our management is implementing remediation steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we are implementing the following steps to remediate the material weaknesses:

We have hired additional tax personnel with adequate expertise to identify and evaluate complex income tax accounting matters.

We have engaged an accounting advisory firm to assist with the documentation, evaluation, remediation, and testing of the relevant internal controls related to the accounting for income taxes.

We are in the process of designing, implementing, and operating sufficiently precise controls to ensure timely and accurate preparation, review, and reporting of the income tax provision and the income tax disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

Remediation of Previously Identified Dril-Quip Material Weakness

In addition to Legacy Innovex's material weaknesses discussed above that continue to exist, Dril-Quip previously identified a material weakness wherein we did not design and maintain effective controls over the financial statement classification of inventory write-downs related to restructurings. As of December 31, 2024, management has concluded that this previously identified material weakness has been remediated through the operation of the necessary previously designed and implemented Legacy Innovex controls to ensure appropriate financial statement classification in the event of a significant and unusual transaction, such as a restructuring.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As described above, the Merger was completed on September 6, 2024, which represented a change in internal control over financial reporting. During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, following becoming a public company as a result of the reverse merger, we began integrating our financial reporting processes of the business with Dril-Quip’s processes and are implementing additional closing procedures to enable our financial reporting process. The processes and controls for significant areas including business combinations, income taxes, treasury, consolidations and the preparation of financial statements and related disclosures, and entity level controls have been substantially impacted by the ongoing integration activities. The primary changes in these areas are related to the consolidation of process owner leadership and control owners, and where required, the modification of inputs, processes and associated systems. For all areas of change noted, management believes the control design and implementation thereof are being appropriately modified to address underlying risks. Other than such changes, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
