Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 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 March 31, 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 month periods ended March 31, 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 Profire Energy, Inc. and its subsidiary (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 simplistic 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.

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 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 contact) for costs related to contracts that are estimated to be completed within one year. All of the current 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.

Disaggregation of Revenue

All revenue recognized in the income statement is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers. The table below shows revenue by category:


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2019		2018
Electronics	$	4,646,597	$	4,807,030

Options to purchase 245,600 and 266,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $3.88 and $3.89 per share were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the impact of these shares would be antidilutive. These options, which expire between November 2019 and May 2020, were still outstanding at March 31, 2019.

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 used our incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. Our weighted average discount rate is 4.50% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 26 months.

The following table shows the components of financing lease cost:


Financing Lease Cost	For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019
Amortization of right-of-use assets	$	16,360
Interest on lease liabilities	$	1,411
Total financing lease cost	$	17,771

Less: Amount representing interest	5,985
Present value of future payments	$	116,772
Current portion	65,098
Long-term portion	51,674

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 months ended March 31, 2019, we recognized $8,906 in short-term lease costs associated with office space leases.

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In accordance with ASC 855 "Subsequent Events," Company Management reviewed all material events through the date this report was issued and the following subsequent events occurred:

On April 22, 2019, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Profire Energy, Inc. (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 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 plan the grants of a 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 assigned target bonus.

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.

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 creation of burner-management systems used on a variety of oilfield forced-air and natural-draft fire-tube applications. We sell our products and services primarily throughout North America. Our experienced team of industry service professionals also provides supporting services for our products.

Principal Products and Services

In the oil and natural gas 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, which 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 help 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 can use our 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 in 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 France, Italy, Argentina, India, Nigeria, the Middle East, Australia, and Brazil. We are established in the North American oil and gas markets, which is our current primary focus, but we are working to expand into more international markets as well.

Product Extension: PF3100

The PF3100 is an advanced burner-management system which is designed to operate, monitor, control, and manage a wide variety of more complex, multi-faceted oilfield 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, tedious, and difficult to use and install. The PF3100 can help manage and synchronize custom applications helping 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 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 identifying a potential market need, we begin researching the market and developing products that might 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 transmitter and switches, burners, pilots, and other combustion related equipment. We have invested heavily to develop 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 have sold historically, in November 2014 we expanded our product offering to include chemical-management systems through our acquisition of VIM Injection Management assets.

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
	March 31, 2019		December 31, 2018		September 30, 2018		June 30, 2018		March 31, 2018
Total Revenues	$10,833,058		$10,605,155		$11,499,902		$11,339,760		$12,169,717
Gross Profit Percentage	53.2	%	44.9	%	53.0	%	52.1	%	50.4	%
Operating Expenses	$3,626,811		$3,541,209		$3,701,281		$3,810,896		$3,873,838
Net Income	$1,668,618		$831,404		$1,658,859		$1,714,270		$1,876,228
Operating Cash Flow	$2,608,501		$1,829,363		$599,862		$1,670,392		$1,452,939

Despite a decline in revenues compared to the first quarter of 2018, our revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 were up slightly compared to the prior quarter. If oil prices remain at or above current levels and our customers' capital budgets increase, we expect that sales volumes will continue to increase at a moderate pace. However, increases in customer spending patterns often lag several months behind sustained improvements in oil and gas prices.

Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 decreased by 11% or $1,336,659 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2018, which was mostly a carryover result from the significant industry down turn in Q4 2018. As a result of the significant decline in oil prices in Q4 2018, many E&P companies pulled back on capex budgets or deferred planned spending to later in

2019. Although oil prices recovered significantly during the first quarter of 2019, the impact of the Q4 2018 downturn could continue to affect our revenues during the remainder of 2019.

Our gross profit 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 of 2018 where gross profit decreased due to inventory adjustments related to our CMS product line. We anticipate gross margin will stay within the expected range going forward, assuming normal product mix fluctuations. We believe that our gross profit percentage may improve as the PF3100 becomes a larger contributor to revenue in future periods.

Operating expenses decreased $247,027 from the same quarter of last year primarily due to lower commissions as a result of reduced revenues and a reduction in stock based compensation due to some significant awards vesting and no longer requiring expense recognition. As reported in our 2018 10K filing, we plan to make additional investments during 2019. Planned investments include increased research and development efforts in order to expand our product offerings, and an expanded sales and labor force to meet expected market demand and support our expanding product offerings.

Due to the reasons discussed above, net income decreased 11% during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same quarter in 2018. Operating cash flows increased 80% during the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018, primarily due to increases in customer collections. Assuming favorable economic conditions continue and we successfully implement our planned investments in research and development and an expanded sales and labor force, we believe we are well-positioned for continued growth in future periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital at March 31, 2019 was $28,281,712, compared to $27,744,268 at December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to a decrease in accrued liabilities related to 2018 bonuses and incentive compensation that were paid out during the first quarter.

We acquired land for a new office building and research and development facility in Canada in June of 2018 and have begun construction. Excluding the cost of the land, the total cost of the building is expected to be approximately $3,500,000 USD, and as of March 31, 2019, we had spent approximately $698,000 USD towards its construction. 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

This section is not required.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Management, with the participation of the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based on the evaluation performed, our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2019.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, Management concluded that no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, there are no legal proceedings pending or threatened against us that may have a material impact on us and there are no actions pending or threatened against any of our directors or officers that are averse to us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which risks could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. These risks are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition or future results.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

All other share repurchase programs previously authorized by the Board have expired.
