10. Operating segments

The Company has two operating segments based on its geographic operating locations of Canada and U.S. and a non-operating segment, for joint corporate costs (“Corporate services”). The Company determines its reportable segments based on internal information regularly reviewed by management to allocate resources and assess performance. The Corporate services segment is comprised of costs which are managed on a group basis and are not allocated to the operating segments. The Corporate services segment primarily consists of general and administrative expenses, foreign exchange gains (losses), interest expenses and acquisition and reorganization costs.

There are no material differences in the basis of accounting or the measurement of income, assets and liabilities between the Company and reported segment information. Revenues and expenses are attributed to geographical areas based on the location in which the services are rendered. The segment presentation of assets is based on legal owner of the assets which bears the related depreciation and amortization expenses.

Seasonality of operations

A portion of the Company's operations are carried on in Western Canada where activity levels in the oilfield services industry are subject to a degree of seasonality. Operating activities in Western Canada are generally lower during “spring breakup” which normally commences in mid to late-March and continues through to May. Operating activities generally peak in the winter months from December until mid to late-March. Additionally, volatility in the weather and temperatures not only during this period, but year-

round, can create additional unpredictability in operational results. Activity levels in the oil and natural gas basins in the U.S. are not subject to the same level of seasonality that occurs in the Western Canada region.

11. Contractual obligations and contingencies

As at June 30, 2023, the Company’s commitment to purchase property, plant and equipment is approximately $8,003. Cathedral anticipates expending these funds in 2023 Q3 and Q4 subject to supply chain delays.

The Company is involved in various legal claims associated with the normal course of operations. The Company believes that any liabilities that may arise pertaining to such matters would not have a material impact on its financial position.

The Company also holds six letters of credit totaling $1,895 related to rent payments, corporate credit cards and a utilities deposit.

12. Subsequent events

On July 11, 2023, Cathedral, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired Rime Downhole Technologies, LLC (“Rime”), a privatelyheld, Texas-based, engineering business that specializes in building products for the downhole measurement-while-drilling (“MWD”) industry (the “Rime acquisition”) in exchange for approximately USD $41,000 comprised of: (a) the payment of USD $21,000 in cash; and (b) the issuance of USD $20,000 of subordinated exchangeable promissory notes (“EP Notes”) that are exchangeable into a maximum of 24,570,000 common shares in the capital of Cathedral (“EP Shares”) at a deemed price of CAD $1.10 per common share.

The EP Notes have a three-year term and accrue interest payable quarterly at a rate of 5% per annum. Any time prior to expiry of the EP Notes, if the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of Cathedral (“Common Shares”) equals or exceeds CAD $1.10 per Common Share, Cathedral may cause the exchange of the EP Notes for Common Shares. Cathedral and the holders of the EP Notes may agree to an earlier exchange of the EP Notes into Common Shares. In addition to the statutory hold periods applicable to the EP Shares under Canadian and U.S. securities laws, the parties agreed to contractual restrictions on resale of any EP Shares as follows: 33% of the EP Shares are restricted until July 11, 2024; a further 33% of the EP Shares are restricted until July 11, 2025; and a further 34% of the EP Shares are restricted until July 11, 2026, subject to certain exceptions contained in the terms governing the EP Notes.

In connection with the Rime acquisition, the Company entered into a three-year term credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), replacing its existing credit facility with its syndicate of lenders led by ATB Financial (“ATB”). The Credit Facility provides an approximate $137,000 principal amount comprised of: i) a $59,000 Syndicated Term Facility (replacing the existing Syndicated Term Facility), ii) a new USD $21,000 term loan, repayable in equal quarterly installments over a five-year amortization period, iii) a $35,000 Syndicated Operating Facility (previously $15,000), and iv) a $15,000 Revolving Operating Facility (previously $10,000). The Credit Facility was utilized to replace and repay Cathedral’s existing credit facility. The interest rate and financial covenants remained unchanged from the existing credit facility.
