I NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND 2016
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
I Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
CrowderGulf Joint Venture was organized on October 1, 2003 and reorganized under the Alabama
law as CrowderGulf, LLC (the Company) on December 30, 2011. The liability of theatembers of the
I Company is limited to the members' total capital contributions. \\
The Company provides services to customers throughout the southeast 11 4ccitates Mese
services consist of disaster response, support and pre-event services, marine operations coastal
Irestoration and related technical assistance to customers after majo natural/and man-made
disasters.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
1 \
Revenue from debris management and removal contracts is recognized on the accrual basis when
debris collections are received at the appropriate dumping sit&'and ap1-oved by independent onsite
inspectors. Beach reclamation service revenue is recognized or t e accr'i ah basis as such services
are provided.
Revenues from demolition contracts are recognized after phases of structural demolition are
complete in accordance with terms of its contracts and th\specified governmental agency has
Iapproved the adequacy of the demolition services / \>
The Company recognizes its disaster re edict o 7evenue/u der the specific performance method,
I
whereby revenue is recognized o*after perform nce units (cubic yards, etc.) have been
completed and approved by the customer. Final billing only occurs after the customer has approved
the specific performance units wh ch are�often del'ayed. In order to properly match revenues with
Irelated costs the Company reco s I lled\eceivables for these remediation services.
Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract
Iperformance, such as indirect tabor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation. Selling, general and
administrative costs are chargetho expenses as incurred.
Cash and Cash Eq Eq aCeet_
IThe Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of six months or less when
purchasedo-6e sash eguiivalents.
® In 2017, the Compa9y early adopted the requirements of ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash
® Flo -0Top1Restricted Cash, to present the change during the period in the total of cash,
gash equivalents;and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents
I
in the state n ent of cash flows. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash have
been included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-
/ shown on the statement of cash flows.
ITrade Receivables
The Company invoices governmental entities for services performed pursuant to disaster response,
I support and pre-event services. The governmental entities, in turn, seek reimbursement from the
Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA). The Company's contracts with the
governmental entities set forth the rates to be paid for specified services. Actual invoices submitted
to the governmental entities are subject to reviews by their representative as well as state and
I federal officials before submission to FEMA for reimbursement. FEMA may adjust the
reimbursements based on its assessment of the "reasonableness" of the contract charges.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2017 AND 2016

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES —
CONTINUED
Trade Receivables — Continued
Due to the significance of the contract amounts, the governmental entities generally\\do noj4ay
what they owe the Company for services performed prior to receiving the FEIVG4�-eimbOrsernents.
Consequently, payments may be delayed and amounts ultimately received by the Co trnay be
less than the amounts agreed-upon under the contracts. In the even\FEMA j eimburses the
governmental entities for less than the contractually agreed-upo ^amob ts,\the governmental
entities can appeal for a full reimbursement.
Management anticipates that it will support the governmental�ntities .n\their efforts to fully collect
the contract amounts from FEMA, including any appeals process\\w�ith FEMA, in order to satisfy their
contractual obligations with the Company. In the even \uItimate amount received by the
Company is less than the full contract amount, the Company>either attempt to collect the
difference from the municipality or accept a lower amount.
Trade receivables are carried at original invoic��un and management determines an allowance
at year-end based on their estimate of future co i ctabilit and historywith these types of contracts
Y� Yp
and specific governmental entities. Trade receivablessarewritten off when deemed uncollectible.
Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off\are recorded when received. The Company
does not charge interest on trade receivables. As;of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company
considers all receivables to be collectiblAcingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been
recorded in the financial statements. \/-/
Property and Equipment\
Property and equipmetS�\areveo rded at their original costs. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method overthe estima ed useful life of the related assets. The Company estimates the
useful life of hea`y-eq.ui ment\machinery and vehicles to be 5 years, office equipment to be 7-10
years, and buildingsand-improvements to be 15 — 40 years. When assets are retired or otherwise
disposed of-theot'\n.d he related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and
any resulting gaimor loss is reflected in income for the period. The cost of routine maintenance and
repairs is:charged to exp nse as incurred. Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31,
20177 and 2016was�approximately $340,000 and, $180,000, respectively.
qui men \Renta//"I and Leases
Th p
The Compa�y rents or leases a significant amount of the equipment required to fulfill its contracts.
Generally)this equipment is rented on a job-by-job basis for short periods of time and is expensed
asoperating leases. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, none of the Company's equipment rental
arrangements were capital leases.
Advertising Costs
The Company conducts non-direct advertising. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
