Kodiak Gas Services Inc

From time to time, we and our subsidiaries may be involved in various claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In management’s opinion, the resolution of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Beginning in October 2019 through April 2023, we received notices of sales and use tax audits from the State of Texas Comptroller’s office for the periods covering December 2015 through December 2022. We are actively in settlement discussions with the Comptroller, and if necessary, we will exhaust our administrative remedies to the maximum extent possible. Based on the timing and nature of a previous settlement, we may receive similar treatment on settlement of our sales and use tax liability. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry—Kodiak has in the past been, and may in the future be, subject to sales tax audits in jurisdictions where Kodiak operates. As a result, Kodiak may incur material unanticipated sales and use tax liabilities.”
