Note 1. Organization and Description of Business Organization Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (the Company or Successor) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Thornton (near Denver), Colorado. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. 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). On December 6, 2018 ( the "Closing Date"), the Company, formerly known as Concrete Pumping Holdings Acquisition Corp., consummated a business combination transaction (the Business Combination) pursuant to which it acquired (i) the private operating company formerly called Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. (CPH) and (ii) the former special purpose acquisition company called Industrea Acquisition Corp (Industrea). In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, the Company changed its name to Concrete Pumping Holdings, Inc. The financial results described herein for the dates and periods prior to the Business Combination relate to the operations of CPH prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. See Note 4  Business Combinations for further discussion. 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 contractor companies in the commercial, infrastructure and residential sectors. Most often equipment returns to a home base nightly and neither company contracts to purchase, mix, or deliver concrete. Brundage-Bone and Capital collectively have approximately 90 branch locations across 22 states, with its corporate headquarters in Thornton (near Denver), Colorado. Camfaud has 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 in the U.S. and the U.K. Eco-Pan uses containment pans specifically designed to hold waste products from concrete and other industrial cleanup operations. Eco-Pan has 16 operating locations across the U.S. and shares an operating location in the U.K. with one of the Camfaud branches mentioned above, with its corporate headquarters in Thornton (near Denver), Colorado. Seasonality The Companys sales are historically seasonal, with lower revenue volumes typically in the first half of the year and higher revenue volumes in the second half of each year. Such seasonality also causes the Companys working capital cash flow requirements to vary from first half to second half of the year and primarily depends on the variability of weather patterns with the Company generally having lower sales volume during the winter and spring months. Impacts of COVID- 19 In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID- 19 ) emerged and has spread around the world. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID- 19 to be a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. On March 13, 2020, U.S. President Trump announced a National Emergency relating to the pandemic. Government authorities in the U.S. and U.K. have recommended or imposed various social distancing, quarantine, and isolation measures on large portions of the population, which include limitations on travel and mandatory cessation of certain business activities. Both the outbreak and the containment and mitigation measures have had and are likely to continue to have a serious adverse impact on the global economy, the severity and duration of which are uncertain. It is likely that government stabilization efforts will only partially mitigate the consequences to the economy. The extent to which the COVID- 19 pandemic will impact the Companys business, financial condition, and results of operations is highly uncertain and will be affected by a number of factors. These include the duration and extent of the pandemic; the duration and extent of imposed or recommended containment and mitigation measures; the extent, duration, and effective execution of government stabilization and recovery efforts; the impact of the pandemic on economic activity, including on construction projects and the Companys customers demand for its services; the Companys ability to effectively operate, including as a result of travel restrictions and mandatory business and facility closures; the ability of the Companys customers to pay for services rendered; any further closures of the Companys and the Companys customers offices and facilities; and any additional project delays or shutdowns. Customers may also slow down decision-making, delay planned work or seek to terminate existing agreements. Any of these events may have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition, and/or results of operations, including further impairment to our goodwill and intangible assets. In the final month of the second quarter of fiscal 2020, our operations in the Seattle and U.K. markets were negatively impacted due to COVID- 19 -imposed construction site shutdowns. These restrictions were, for the most part, lifted during the third quarter ended July 31, 2020. As a result of the pandemic, the Company has implemented certain short-term cost reductions, including headcount reductions, modified work schedules reducing hours where needed, and furloughs in limited locations. The Company had previously suspended any remaining uncommitted 2020 capital expenditure investments, but that has since been lifted as its overall liquidity and operations have improved. While the Company believes these disruptions will be temporary, it is difficult to predict how long they will last and the impact they will have on the Company in future periods. The Company will continue to evaluate the effect of COVID- 19 on its business. In addition, the COVID- 19 pandemic drove a sustained decline in the Company's stock price and a deterioration in general economic conditions in the fiscal 2020 second quarter, which qualified as a triggering event necessitating the evaluation of its goodwill and long-lived assets for indicators of impairment. As a result of the evaluation, the Company conducted a quantitative interim impairment test as of April 30, 2020. There were no triggering events during the fiscal 2020 third quarter. Refer to Notes 2 and 8 for further discussion. The Company will continue to evaluate its goodwill and intangible assets in future quarters. Additional impairments may be recorded in the future based on events and circumstances, including those related to COVID- 19 discussed above.
