Note 2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of all majority owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. In presenting these unaudited consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgments and available information at a point in time. As such, actual results could differ from those estimates. In management’s opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of interim results reported.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and following the guidance of Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). As permitted under such rules, certain notes and other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”)
have been condensed or omitted; however, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do include such notes and financial information sufficient so as to make the interim information presented not misleading. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of December 31, 2013 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2014.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists,” to resolve the diversity in practice in the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. Although permitted by the ASU, the Company did not elect early adoption or retrospective application. As such, the ASU became effective prospectively for the Company as of its first quarter of 2014. As of September 30, 2014, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits that meet the conditions described by the ASU; accordingly, the ASU did not have any impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-9, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”. This ASU requires revenue to be recognized to reflect the consideration an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers in the appropriate period. This ASU also requires disclosures enabling users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures about customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract are required. The Company will be required to implement this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, using one of the two prescribed retrospective methods. No early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the adoption on the consolidated financial statements.

2020 Senior Notes Offering

On May 2, 2013, the Company closed its $400.0 million aggregate principal note offering. The 2020 Senior Notes bear interest at 8.25%, are second priority senior secured obligations, and are due in 2020. The 2020 Senior Notes are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries.

The Company used the net proceeds of the offering to (i) finance a portion of the purchase price for the EHI acquisition, (ii) refinance its 2015 Subordinated Notes and 2016 Subordinated Notes, (iii) refinance its prior senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility, comprised of the Term Debt and Revolving Line of Credit, (iv) pay related fees and expenses, and (v) used the remaining cash to fund operations.
The indenture under which the 2020 Senior Notes were issued, among other things, limits the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to: (i) pay dividends or distributions, repurchase equity, prepay subordinated debt or make certain investments; (ii) incur additional debt or issue certain disqualified stock and preferred stock; (iii) incur liens on assets; (iv) merge or consolidate with another company or sell all or substantially all assets; (v) enter into transactions with affiliates; and (vi) allow to exist certain restrictions on the ability of the guarantors to pay dividends or make other payments to the Company.
The 2020 Senior Notes are secured by second-position liens, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, on substantially all of the Company and the guarantors’ existing and future assets that secure the Company’s new Revolving Credit Facility.

The interest rate on the 2020 Senior Notes is fixed at 8.25%. The outstanding balance under the 2020 Senior Notes at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $355.0 million.

Table of Contents

A total of $46.0 million of the net proceeds were initially deposited in escrow, consisting of $45.0 million of aggregate principal and $1.0 million related to anticipated interest, to be used toward the acquisition of Air Amazonia. Pursuant to the terms of the 2020 Senior Notes, these proceeds of the offering were not released from escrow to consummate the Air Amazonia acquisition before July 31, 2013, and as a result, an aggregate principal amount of 2020 Senior Notes equal to $45.0 million were redeemed, on a pro rata basis, on August 5, 2013 pursuant to a special mandatory redemption, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2020 Senior Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, August 5, 2013. The Company funded the purchase price of the Air Amazonia acquisition with borrowings from its Revolving Credit Facility during 2013 (see “Note 6 —Acquisitions”).

On May 2, 2014, the Company commenced an offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to exchange all $355.0 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 8.25% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2020, which were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Old Notes”), for an equal principal amount of new 8.25% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2020 which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “New Notes”). The Exchange Offer was completed on June 6, 2014.

Revolving Credit Facility

On May 2, 2013, the Company entered into the Revolving Credit Facility, providing a new $100.0 million, five-year revolving credit facility with a group of financial institutions led by Wells Fargo Bank N.A. and including Bank of the West, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, and HSBC Bank USA NA. On June 14, 2013, the Revolving Credit Facility was amended to increase the maximum aggregate amount that the Company may borrow from $100.0 million to $125.0 million, and on March 11, 2014 it was amended to increase the maximum amount that the Company may borrow to $140.0 million. The interest rate under the Revolving Credit Facility is 225-450 basis points over LIBOR/Prime base rate depending on the Company’s senior leverage ratio. The proceeds under the Revolving Credit Facility are primarily used for general corporate purposes.

The Company and each of the Company’s current and future, direct and indirect, material subsidiaries guarantee the indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility on a senior secured first lien basis.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants including, without limitation, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.20:1.00 if the Company’s average excess availability, as calculated pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, is greater than $16.8 million or 1.05:1.00 if the Company’s average excess availability, as calculated pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, is less than or equal to $16.8 million. The Revolving Credit Facility also imposes an annual growth capital expenditures limit of approximately $25.0 million, subject to standard carry-over provisions. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

The Revolving Credit Facility includes mandatory prepayment requirements for the certain types of transactions, including, without limitation, requiring prepayment from (a) proceeds that the Company receives as a result of certain asset sales, subject to re-investment provisions on terms to be determined, and (b) proceeds from extraordinary receipts.

The outstanding balance under the Revolving Credit Facility at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $86.2 million and $68.1 million, respectively. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility for the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2014 was 5.08% and 5.10%, respectively. The interest rate at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was 4.92% and 5.06%, respectively. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company had $4.4 million and $5.1 million in outstanding standby letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility, respectively, and maximum borrowing availability was $49.4 million and $51.8 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

2020 Subordinated Notes

Pursuant to the terms of the EHI stock purchase agreement, the consideration included $17.5 million of the Company’s subordinated notes. The subordinated notes accrue interest at a fixed rate of 6.0% per annum, mature on November 2, 2020, and may be prepaid at the Company’s option. Upon an event of default under the subordinated notes, the interest rate will increase to 8.0% per annum until the event of default is cured. The Company has agreed to pay, in cash, quarterly installments of interest only (in arrears) until March 31, 2015, after which date the Company has agreed to pay, in addition to such interest, on a quarterly basis $1.0 million in principal. Upon any refinancing of the 2020 Senior Notes or the Revolving Credit Facility the principal amount of the subordinated notes with all accrued interest thereon will become due and payable. Upon a change of control, the principal amount together with all accrued interest shall forthwith be due and payable. Until the principal amount of the subordinated notes together with all accrued interest thereon has been paid in full, the Company and its subsidiaries may not

declare or pay any dividend, make any payment on account of, or take certain other actions in respect of any of the Company or its subsidiaries’ equity interests, subject to certain exceptions.

For purchase accounting of the EHI acquisition, the fair value of the subordinated notes was estimated at $15.9 million, assuming a market level borrowing rate of 9.00%. As of September 30, 2014, the carrying value of the 2020 Subordinated Notes was $16.4 million, made up of the face value of $17.5 million net of the unamortized discount of $1.1 million. As of December 31, 2013, the carrying value of the 2020 Subordinated Notes was $16.2 million, made up of the face value of $17.5 million net of the unamortized discount of $1.3 million.The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the 2020 Subordinated Notes was 6.00% during the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2014.

Advance from Cambiano

EuAC is party to an Amended Agreement with Banca Di Credito Cooperativo Di Cambiano (“Cambiano”) whereby EuAC may request advances up to €4.0 million. Advances are based on documentary proof of receivables due from the Italian government. The purpose of this Agreement is to provide short term liquidity needs. There were no advances outstanding as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The agreement may be canceled by either party at any time.

On August 4, 2008, EuAC executed a bank guarantee and pledged €3.0 million as restricted cash in connection with a performance guarantee for a four-year leasing contract in Italy. Following receipt of the restricted cash, Cambiano issued a letter of credit for the performance bond. In the third quarter of 2012, the restricted cash amount was reduced to $2.6 million (€2.0 million), in conjunction with the reduction in the corresponding letter of credit. The restrictions renewed in June 2013 through the remainder of the 2013 fire season and the Company has classified the restricted cash related to the pledges as current assets based on the anticipated release date of the restriction. In the third quarter of 2014, the restricted cash amount was reduced to $0.3 million (€0.3 million), in conjunction with the reduction in the corresponding letter of credit.

The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Conditions that would trigger an impairment assessment, include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of an asset or an adverse action.

The goodwill impairment test involves a two-step process pursuant to ASC 350-20-35. The first step compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, the second step of the impairment test is to measure the amount of impairment loss. In the second step, the reporting unit’s fair value is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets, in a hypothetical analysis that calculates the implied fair value of goodwill in the same manner as if the reporting unit was being acquired in a business combination. If the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is less than the carrying value, the difference is recorded as an impairment loss.

During the second quarter of 2014, the Company performed the annual impairment review for EHI, which is considered a reporting unit for the purposes of that analysis. The Company compared business unit book value to its fair value, determined through the income approach, and concluded step two of the impairment test should be performed.

Table of Contents

For the purposes of step two analysis, the Company estimated the fair value of EHI reporting unit using income approach. The income approach estimates fair value by discounting the future cash flows expected to be generated by the business unit to their present value. The Company believes this is the most reliable indicator of fair value and is consistent with the approach a market place participant would use. Based on the Company’s step two analysis, the implied fair value of goodwill was lower than its carrying value. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $21.3 million against the carrying amount of goodwill during the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The impairment charge is included in impairment of goodwill on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
The estimation of fair value utilizing the above approach includes numerous uncertainties which require significant judgment when making assumptions of the cost of capital, expected growth rates, selection of discount rates, as well as assumptions regarding general economic and business conditions, among other factors. Key assumptions used in measuring the implied fair value of goodwill included a discount rate of 10%, effective tax rate of 38%, terminal EBITDA multiple of 7.0, and utilizing excess earnings method to value the customer relationship intangible.

During the third quarter of 2014, the Company performed the annual goodwill impairment review for the Oil and Gas business, which is considered a reporting unit, under our commercial operating segment, for the purposes of that analysis. The goodwill originated as a result of purchase price accounting for Air Amazonia acquisition, see Note 6 "Acquisitions". The Company assessed qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. As a result of this qualitative assessment, the Company determined it was not necessary to perform the step one of the goodwill impairment test.

Note 11. Consolidating Financial Information

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed its obligations under the $355.0 million outstanding principal amount of 8.25% notes due 2020. The following presents the condensed consolidating financial information for:
 
Erickson Incorporated (the ‘‘Parent Company’’), the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;

Guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, as specified in the indenture related to the Company’s obligations under the 2020 Senior Notes;

Non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis;

Consolidating entries and eliminations representing adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Parent Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in the Company’s subsidiaries, and (c) record consolidating entries; and

Erickson Incorporated and Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis

Each guarantor subsidiary was 100% owned by the Parent Company as of the date of each condensed consolidating balance sheet presented. The 2020 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each guarantor subsidiary. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the consolidated financial statements, except for the use by the Parent Company and guarantor subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation. Changes in intercompany receivables and payables related to operations, such as intercompany sales or service charges, are included in cash flows from operating activities. All figures presented are in thousands. Figures presented as of September 30, 2014 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are unaudited.
