Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note1. Organization and Description of Business
Organization
Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Thornton, Colorado. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries including Brundage-Bone Concrete Pumping, Inc. (“Brundage-Bone”), Capital Pumping (“Capital”), Camfaud Group Limited (“Camfaud”) and Eco-Pan, Inc. (“Eco-Pan”).
Nature of business
Brundage-Bone and Capital are concrete pumping service providers in the United States ("U.S.") and Camfaud is a concrete pumping service provider in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Their core business is the provision of concrete pumping services to general contractors and concrete finishing companies in the commercial, infrastructure and residential sectors. Most often equipment returns to a “home base” nightly and these service providers donot contract to purchase, mix, or deliver concrete. Brundage-Bone and Capital collectively have approximately100 branch locations across approximately 21 states, with its corporate headquarters in Thornton, Colorado. Camfaud has approximately 30 branch locations throughout the U.K., with its corporate headquarters in Epping (near London), England.
Eco-Pan provides industrial cleanup and containment services, primarily to customers in the construction industry. Eco-Pan uses containment pans specifically designed to hold waste products from concrete and other industrial cleanup operations. Eco-Pan has 20 operating locations across the U.S. with its corporate headquarters in Thornton, Colorado. In addition, we have concrete waste management operations under our Eco-Pan brand name in the U.K. and currently operate from a shared Camfaud location.
Seasonality
The Company’s sales are historically seasonal, with lower revenue in thefirst quarter and higher revenue in thefourth quarter of each year. Such seasonality also causes the Company’s working capital cash flow requirements to vary from quarter to quarter and primarily depends on the variability of weather patterns with the Company generally having lower sales volume during the winter and spring months.
Note2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
We describe our significant accounting policies in Note2 of the notes to consolidated financial statements in our annual report on Form10-K for the year ended* October 31, 2023 ("Annual Report"). During thethree* months ended* January 31, 2024*, there wereno changes to those accounting policies.
Basis of presentation
Our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of* October 31, 2023,which was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements provided herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form10*-Q. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they donot include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The enclosed statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the interim periods. The consolidated results of operations and cash flows for thefirst**three months of the year arenot necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations and cash flows that might be expected for the entire year. These condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended* October 31, 2023.*
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation.
During thefirst quarter of fiscal year2024, certain assets and associated revenues and expenses previously part of the Company's Other activities has now been aggregated into its U.S. Concrete Pumping segment in order to better align its placement with the manner in which the Company now allocates resources and measures performance. As a result, segment results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. For further discussion, see Note18.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue recognition
The Company generates revenues primarily from (1) concrete pumping services in both the U.S. and U.K and (2) the Company’s concrete waste services business, both of which are discussed below. In addition, the Company generates an immaterial amount of revenue from the sales of replacement parts to customers. The Company’s delivery terms for replacement part sales are FOB shipping point. Revenue is disaggregated betweentwo accounting standards: (1) ASC606, Revenue Recognition("ASC606") and (2) ASC842, Leases("ASC842").
Leases as Lessor
Our Eco-Pan business involves contracts with customers whereby we are a lessor for the rental component of the contract and therefore, such rental components of the contract are recorded as lease revenue. We account for such rental contracts as operating leases. We recognize revenue from pan rentals in the period earned, regardless of the timing of billing to customers. The lease component of the revenue is disaggregated by a base price that is based on the number of contractual days and a variable component that is based on days in excess of the number of contractual days.
The table below summarizes our revenues as presented in our unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the periods ended* January 31, 2024and2023* by revenue type:
| Three Months Ended January 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | 2024 | 2023 |
| Service revenue | $89,958 | $86,365 |
| Lease fixed revenue | 4,549 | 4,054 |
| Lease variable revenue | 3,204 | 3,156 |
| Total revenue | $97,711 | $93,575 |
Receivables and contract assets and liabilities
Receivables are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts. Generally, the Company doesnot require collateral for their accounts receivable; however, the Company* mayfile statutory liens or take other appropriate legal action when necessary on construction projects in which collection problems arise. A receivable is typically considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than30* days. The Company doesnot typically charge interest on past-due receivables.
Pursuant to CECL (defined below), Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts, Management’s understanding of the current economic circumstances within the Company’s industry, reasonable and supportable forecasts and Management’s judgment as to the likelihood of ultimate payment based upon available data. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. Our estimate of doubtful accounts could change based on changing circumstances, including changes in the economy or in particular circumstances of individual customers. Accordingly, the Company* may*be required to increase or decrease the allowance for doubtful accounts.
The Company doesnot have contract liabilities associated with contracts with customers. The Company’s contract assets and impairment losses associated therewith arenot significant. Contracts with customers donot result in amounts billed to customers in excess of recognizable revenue.
Newly adopted accounting pronouncements
ASU2016-13, Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic326) (“ASU2016-13”) - In* June 2016,the FASB issued ASUNo.* 2016-13, which, along with subsequently issued related ASUs, requires financial assets (or groups of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, among other provisions (known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model). Under the new guidance, the Company recognizes an allowance for its estimate of expected credit losses over the entire contractual term of its receivables from the date of initial recognition of the financial instrument. Measurement of expected credit losses are based on relevant forecasts that affect collectability. The Company’s receivables are in scope for CECL. At the point that these receivables are recorded, they become subject to the CECL model and estimates of expected credit losses over their contractual life are recorded at inception based on historical information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies with fiscal years beginning after* December 15, 2022,with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted CECL as of November 1, 2023for fiscal year ending October 31, 2024.The adoption of CECL didnot* have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures or the existing internal controls because the Company’s accounts receivable are of short duration and there isnot a material difference between incurred losses and expected losses.

Recently issued accounting pronouncementsnot yet effective**
ASU2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU2023-07”) - In* November 2023,the FASB issued ASUNo.* 2023-07, which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. This ASU is effective for public companies with annual periods beginning after* December 15, 2023,and interim periods within annual period beginning after December 15, 2024,*with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU2023-09”) - In* December 2023,the FASB issued ASUNo.* 2023-09, which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. This ASU is effective for public companies with annual periods beginning after* December 15, 2024,*with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

There wereno changes since* October 31, 2023*in the Company's valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
Long-term debt instruments
The Company's long-term debt instruments are recorded at their carrying values in the consolidated balance sheet, which* maydiffer from their respective fair values.
