PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, and as of December 31, 2018

NOTE 1 - CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Except where the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the "Company," "Profire," "we," "us," "our," or similar words and phrases are to Profire Energy, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, taken together.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at September 30, 2019 and for all periods presented herein have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements contained in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 ("Form 10-K").  The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Line of Business

This Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company's accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

The Company provides burner- and chemical-management products and services for the oil and gas industry primarily in the US and Canadian markets.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies of the Company from the information provided in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's most recent Form 10-K, except as discussed below.

Leases

In February of 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 - Leases (Topic 842), which significantly amends the way companies are required to account for leases. Under the updated leasing guidance, some leases that did not have to be reported previously are now required to be presented as an asset and liability on the balance sheet. In addition, for certain leases, what was previously classified as an operating expense must now be allocated between amortization expense and interest expense. The Company adopted this update as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method. Prior periods have not been restated. Upon implementation, the Company recognized an initial right-of-use asset of $132,488 and lease liability of $132,488. Due to the simple nature of the Company's leases, no change to retained earnings was required. See Note 8 for further details.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements and determined that the adoption of pronouncements applicable to the Company has not had or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Reclassification

Certain balances in previously issued consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. The reclassification had no impact on financial position, net income, or stockholders' equity.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

As of September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company held 3,142,887 and 1,775,500 shares of its common stock in treasury at a total cost of $4,859,230 and $2,609,485, respectively.

On April 22, 2019, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company approved the 2019 Executive Incentive Plan (the “EIP”) for Brenton W. Hatch, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Ryan W. Oviatt, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Cameron M. Tidball, the Company’s Chief Business Development Officer, Jay G. Fugal, the Company’s Vice President of Operations, and Patrick D. Fisher, the Company’s Vice President of Product development. The EIP provides for the potential award of bonuses to the participants based on the Company’s financial performance in fiscal year 2019. If earned, the bonuses will be payable in cash and stock, and the stock portion of the bonuses is intended to constitute an award under the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). In addition to the EIP, the Board also approved as a long-term incentive the grants of restricted stock unit awards to Messrs. Oviatt, Tidball, Fugal, and Fisher pursuant to the Plan (the “2019 LTIP”).

2019 EIP

Under the terms of the EIP, each participating executive officer has been assigned a target bonus amount for fiscal 2019. The target bonus amount for Mr. Hatch is $412,000, the target bonus amount for Mr. Oviatt is $90,125, the target bonus amount for Mr. Tidball is $84,357, the target bonus for Mr. Fugal is $41,200, and the target bonus for Mr. Fisher is $38,750 CAD. Under no circumstance can the participants receive more than two times the target bonus amount assigned to such participant.

Participants will be eligible to receive bonuses based upon reaching or exceeding performance goals established by the Board or its Compensation Committee for fiscal 2019. The performance goals in the EIP are based on the Company’s total revenue, net income, free cash flow, and product development milestones. Each of these performance goals will be weighted 25% in calculating bonus amounts.

The bonus amounts earned under the EIP, if any, will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in shares of Restricted Stock under the Plan. In no event shall the total award exceed 200% of the target bonus amount for each participant, or exceed any limitations otherwise set forth in the Plan. The actual bonus amounts, if any, will be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board upon the completion of fiscal 2019 and paid by March 15, 2020, subject to all applicable tax withholding.

2019 LTIP

The 2019 LTIP consists of total awards of up to 66,213 restricted stock units (“Units”) to Mr. Oviatt, up to 51,646 Units to Mr. Tidball, up to 35,313 Units to Mr. Fugal, and up to 24,862 Units to Mr. Fisher pursuant to two separate Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreements to be entered between the Company and each participant. One agreement covers 33% of each award recipient’s Units that are subject to time-based vesting, and the other agreement covers the remaining 67% of such award recipient’s Units that may vest based on performance metrics. Upon vesting, the award agreements entitle the award recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each vested Unit. The vesting period of the 2019 LTIP began on January 1, 2019 and terminates on December 31, 2021.

PROFIRE ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, and as of December 31, 2018
On March 14, 2019, the Board approved a grant of 85,000 restricted stock units ("RSUs") to various employees. The awards vest annually over five years and will result in a total compensation expense of $149,600 to be recognized over the vesting period.

On June 12, 2019, the Board approved a grant of 183,942 RSUs to Independent Directors. Half of the RSUs vest immediately on the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the RSUs will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date or at the Company's next Annual Meeting of Stockholders, whichever is earlier. The awards will result in total compensation expense of $252,000 to be recognized over the vesting period.

NOTE 6 – REVENUE

Performance Obligations
Our performance obligations include providing product and servicing our product. We recognize product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product is delivered to the customer. Occasionally, if we are shipping the product on a customer’s account, we recognize revenue when the product has been shipped. At that point in time, the control of the product is transferred to the customer. When we perform service work, we apply the practical expedient that allows us to recognize service revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed. We do not engage in transactions acting as an agent. The time needed to complete our performance obligations varies based on the size of the project; however, we typically satisfy our performance obligations within a few months of entering into the applicable sales contract or service contract.


Contract Balances
We have elected to use the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4 (regarding recognition of the incremental costs of obtaining a contract) for costs related to contracts that are estimated to be completed within one year. All of our current sales contracts and service contracts are expected to be completed within one year, and as a result, we have not recognized a contract asset account. If we had chosen not to use this practical expedient, we would not expect a material difference in the contract balances. We also did not have any material contract liabilities because we typically do not receive payments in advance of recognizing revenue.

NOTE 8 – LEASES

We have leases for office equipment and office space. The leases for office equipment are classified as financing leases and the typical term is 36 months. We have the option to extend most office equipment leases, but we do not intend to do so. Accordingly, no extensions have been recognized in the right-of-use asset or lease liability. The office equipment lease payments are not variable and the lease agreements do not include any non-lease components, residual value guarantees, or restrictions. There are no interest rates implicit in the office equipment lease agreements, so we have used our incremental borrowing rate to determine the discount rate to be applied to our financing leases. The weighted average discount rate applied to our financing leases is 4.50% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 25.3 months.

The following table shows the components of financing lease cost:

Financing Lease CostFor the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019

Because our office space leases are short-term, we have elected not to recognize them on our balance sheet under the short-term recognition exemption. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized $18,779 and $41,097, respectively in short-term lease costs associated with office space leases.

immediately after closing of the transaction. These products complement our burner-management system (BMS) product offerings and should enable us to supply a larger portion of the total BMS package sale to our customers.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase accounting process has not been completed primarily because the valuation of acquired assets has not been finalized. We expect to complete the purchase accounting as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date. We do not believe there will be material adjustments. The purchase price of $2,325,846 USD was funded through existing cash. Of this cash purchase amount $246,322 USD has been held back for 6 months pending satisfaction of seller obligations under the purchase agreement. MEP will also receive a 4.5% royalty on proprietary MEP product revenue generated during the next five years. Based on the estimated fair value at the time of purchase, the Company recorded an estimate of intangible assets in the amount of $885,000 USD and estimated goodwill of $122,680 USD pending completion of the final valuation analysis.

The purchase price calculation is a follows:
Cash$2,079,524  
Liabilities246,322

Overview

We are an oilfield technology company providing products that enhance the efficiency, safety, and compliance of the oil and gas industry. We specialize in the design of burner and combustion management solutions utilized on heated applicances throughout the oil and gas industry. We sell our products and services primarily throughout North America. Our experienced team of industry service professionals also provides supporting services for our products.

16


Principal Products and Services

Across the energy industry, there are numerous demands for heat generation and control. Applications such as combustors, enclosed flares, gas production units, treaters, glycol and amine reboilers, indirect line-heaters, heated tanks, and process heaters require heat as part of their production or processing functions. This is provided by a burner flame. This burner flame is integral to the process of separating, treating, storing, and transporting oil and gas. Factors such as the gravity, the presence of hydrates, temperature and hydrogen sulfide content contribute to the requirement for heat in oil and gas production and processing applications. Our burner-management systems ignite, monitor, and manage this burner flame, which can be operated remotely, reducing the need for employee interaction with the burner, such as for the purposes of re-ignition or temperature monitoring. In addition, our burner-management systems can help reduce gas emissions by quickly reigniting a failed flame.

Oil and gas producers utilize burner-management systems to achieve increased safety, greater operational efficiencies, and improved compliance with changing industry regulations. Without burner-management systems, an employee must discover and reignite an extinguished burner flame, then restart the application manually. Therefore, without burner-management systems, all application monitoring is done directly on-site. Such on-site monitoring can result in the interruption of production for longer periods of time, risk of reigniting a flame, which can lead to burns and explosions, and the possibility of raw gas being vented into the atmosphere when the flame fails. In addition, without a burner-management system, burners often run longer, incurring significant fuel costs. We believe there is a growing trend in the oil and gas industry toward enhanced control, process automation, and data logging, largely for improved efficiency and operational cost savings, and partly for potential regulatory-satisfaction purposes. Our burner-management systems are designed to be always on standby to make sure the burner flame is lit and managed properly, which can reduce how often a burner is running and may reduce fuel costs. We continue to assess compliance-interest in the industry, and we believe that enhanced burner-management products and services can help our customers be compliant with such regulatory requirements, where applicable. In addition to selling products, we train and dispatch service technicians to service burner flame installations throughout the United States and Canada.

We initially developed our first burner-management system in 2005. Since then, we have released several iterations of our initial burner-management system, increasing features and capabilities, while maintaining compliance with North American standards including, Canadian Standards Association (CSA), Underwriters Laboratories (UL), and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) standards.

Our burner-management systems have become widely used in Western Canada and throughout many regions in the United States. We have sold our burner-management systems to many large energy companies, including Anadarko, Chesapeake, ConocoPhillips, Devon, Encana, XTO, CNRL, Shell, OXY, and others. Our systems have also been sold or installed in other parts of the world, including many countries in Europe, South America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. We are established in the North American oil and gas markets, which is our current primary focus, but we are working to expand further into other international markets.

Product Extensions:

The PF3100 is an advanced burner and combustion management system which is designed to operate, monitor, control, and manage a wide variety of complex, heated appliances. Throughout the industry, Programmable Logic Controllers, or PLCs, are used to operate and manage custom-built oilfield applications. Though capable, PLCs can be expensive, difficult to install and maintain. The PF3100 can help oilfield producers meet deadlines and improve profitability through an off-the-shelf solution with dynamic customization. We are selling the PF3100 for initial use in the oil and gas industry's natural-draft and forced-draft applications.

We recognized the area of burner management most in need of innovation was the user experience. The PF2200 is designed to optimize installation, commissioning, troubleshooting and daily operation. This focus on the user will optimized the time required on-site for both installation and operator training. With the user focused design being combined with an expanded feature set, the PF2200 becomes a very powerful tool to reduce downtime and lessen the burden on producers in a wide variety of applications, ranging from dual-burner to forced draft, to a variety of waste-gas destruction applications.

We frequently assess market needs by participating in industry conferences and soliciting feedback from existing and potential customers, allowing us to provide quality solutions to the oil- and gas-producing companies we serve. Upon
17


identifying a potential market need, we begin researching the market and developing products that are likely to have feasibility for future sale.

Additional Complementary Products

In addition to our burner- and combustion-management systems, we also supply complementary products that provide our customers with a complete solution. These products include safety and monitoring devices such as shut-down and temperature valves, pressure transmitters and switches, burners, pilots, and other combustion related equipment. We continue to invest in the development of innovative, complementary, products which we anticipate will help bolster continued long-term growth.

Chemical-Management Systems

In addition to the burner-management systems and complementary technologies we sell, we also offer chemical-management systems.

Chemical injection is used for a wide variety of purposes in the oil and gas industry including down-hole inhibition of wax, hydrates, and corrosion agents, so that product can flow more efficiently to the wellhead. Once at the wellhead, chemical injection can also be used to further process the oil or gas before it is sent into a pipeline, and with other applications.

Currently, a variety of pumps are used to meter the chemicals injected but are often inaccurate in injecting the proper volume of chemical, as they may not account for all of the variables that affect how much chemical should be injected (e.g., pressure, hydrogen sulfide concentration, etc.) nor the optimal efficiency rates of varying pump systems.

Inaccurate injection levels are problematic because the chemicals injected are expensive, and over-injection causes unnecessary expense for producers. Under-injection can also be problematic because it often results in the creation of poor product (i.e., with wax, hydrate, or corrosion agents) and causes problems with pipeline operations.

Our chemical-management systems monitor and manage the chemical-injection process to ensure that optimal levels of chemicals are injected. This improves the efficiency of the pump and production quality of the well, improves safety for workers that would otherwise be exposed to these chemicals, and improves compliance with pipeline operators. Like our burner-management systems, our chemical-management systems can be monitored and managed remotely via supervisory control and data acquisition or other remote-communication systems. We hold a U.S. patent related to our chemical management system and its process for supplying a chemical agent to a process fluid.

Results of Operations

Comparison quarter over quarter

The table below presents certain financial data comparing the most recent quarter to prior quarters:
For the three months ended
September 30, 2019June 30, 2019March 31, 2019December 31, 2018September 30, 2018
Total Revenues$9,905,761  $10,124,031  $10,833,058  $10,605,155  $11,499,902  
Gross Profit Percentage52.2 %51.2 %53.2 %44.9 %53.0 %
Operating Expenses$4,027,844  $4,190,479  $3,626,811  $3,541,209  $3,701,728  
Net Income$921,748  $985,504  $1,668,618  $831,404  $1,659,089  
Operating Cash Flow$2,094,454  $2,699,154  $2,608,501  $1,829,363  $599,862  

Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 decreased by 14% or $1,594,141 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2018, which was mostly driven by macro industry changes over that same period. The average oil price in the first nine months of 2019 was only $57.04 per barrel compared to $66.93 per barrel in the first nine months of 2018 representing a decrease of 14.8%. The Q3 2019 weekly average rig count for North America was 1,024 compared to 1,239 in the same period of last year . These decreases have followed the decline in oil prices in Q4 2018. As a result of these macro trends, we believe many exploration and production companies have pulled back on capital expenditure budgets or deferred
18


planned spending. Some customers have indicated to us that they intend to use cash in the near future to fund further debt reductions, increasing dividend payments or to initiate or expand stock repurchase programs.

Our gross profit margin was down slightly from the same quarter of last year but remains within our normally exepected range for a completed quarter. The gross margin percentage fluctuates each quarter due to changes in product mix and product related reserves. Over the past year gross profit has stayed fairly consistent, within an expected range, except for Q4 2018 when gross profit decreased due to inventory adjustments related to our chemical-management system product line. We anticipate gross margin will stay within the expected range going forward, assuming normal product mix fluctuations.

Operating expenses increased $326,116 from the same quarter of last year, which was consistent with our previously announced strategic investment plan for 2019. As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, we initiated investments during 2019 in the areas of research and development efforts in order to expand our product offerings, international market evaluation and expansion and an expanded sales and labor force to meet expected market demand and support our expanding product offerings. We intend to continue to fund these activities during the fourth quarter.

Due to the lower revenues and higher operating cost to support strategic initiatives discussed above, net income decreased 44% during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018. Operating cash flows increased significantly during the third quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018, despite lower revenue and increased costs. This increase is primarily due to favorable movements in net working capital during the third quarter of 2019 compared to unfavorable movements in net working capital in the third quarter of 2018.

Despite the ongoing volatility in the oil and gas industry and macro trends in the short term, we remain focused on the Company's future. Assuming we successfully implement our planned investments in research and development, in international market expansion and an expanded sales and labor force, we believe we are well-positioned for continued growth in future periods, particularly if oil prices improve and allow our customers to make higher levels of capital expenditures.

Comparison of the nine-months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

The table below presents certain financial data comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to the same period ended September 30, 2018:
For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
20192018$ Change% Change
Total Revenues$30,862,850  $35,009,380  $(4,146,530) (11.8)%
Gross Profit Percentage52.2 %51.8 %0.4 %
Operating Expenses$11,845,134  $11,386,462  $458,672  4.0 %
Net Income$3,575,870  $5,249,587  $(1,673,717) (31.9)%
Operating Cash Flow$7,402,109  $3,723,193  $3,678,916  98.8 %

Revenues during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year declined 11.8% which is largely due to a 14.8% drop in the average oil price over the same time frame, which caused our customers to reduce capital expenditure. Operating expenses increased 4.0% year-over-year as a result of ongoing strategic investments during the period. As a result of the revenue and operating cost changes, there was a 31.9% decline in net income. Our gross profit percentage increased slightly by 0.4% during the nine-months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to changes in product mix, direct labor costs, and inventory adjustments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital at September 30, 2019 was $25,228,492, compared to $27,744,268 at December 31, 2018. This decrease resulted from a combination of decreases in accounts receivable and inventory which were partially offset by decreases in accrued liabilities such as income taxes payable.

We acquired land for a new office building and research and development facility in Canada in June of 2018 and construction of the facility is ongoing. Excluding the cost of the land, the total cost of the building is expected to be approximately $4,600,000 USD. As of September 30, 2019, we had spent approximately $3,165,000 USD towards construction of the building. We believe our available cash resources are sufficient to cover construction costs for the building and other expected capital expenditures for the foreseeable future, and we have no current plans to incur debt financing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, nor do we plan to engage in any in the foreseeable future.
