Explanatory Note
As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 4, 2019 (the Initial Report), Comfort Systems USA, Inc. (the Company or CSUSA) completed its previously announced acquisition (the Acquisition) of all of the outstanding securities of Walker TX Holding Company, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (formerly Walker TX Holding Company, Inc., a Texas corporation, Walker) pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement), dated as of February 21, 2019, by and among the Company, the holders of all the outstanding securities of Walker (collectively, the Selling Shareholders), and Scott Walker, as representative of the Selling Shareholders. As a result of the Acquisition, Walker is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The transaction closed on April 1, 2019 (the Transaction Date). This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (this Amendment) amends the Initial Report to include the financial statements, pro forma financial information and the related consent omitted from the Initial Report in reliance on Items 9.01(a)(4) and 9.01(b) of Form 8-K.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(a) Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired
The audited financial statements of Walker as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, including the related independent auditors report, are included as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of the Company and the historical balance sheet of Walker, giving effect to the Acquisition as if the Acquisition had been consummated on December 31, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 combines the historical consolidated statements of operations of the Company and the historical statements of operations of Walker, giving effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2018. The unaudited pro forma adjustments to reflect the purchase price allocation are based upon preliminary information, which may be revised as additional information becomes available.
The notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements provide a more detailed discussion of how such adjustments were derived and presented in the pro forma financial statements. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been compiled from historical financial statements and other information as described herein, but do not purport to represent what the Companys financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the transactions occurred on the dates indicated herein, or project the Companys performance for any future periods.
The pro forma financial information should be read in conjunction with the Companys historical financial statements included in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Walkers historical information included herein.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The historical consolidated financial statements of Comfort Systems USA, Inc. have been adjusted in the pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the Acquisition, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results following the Acquisition.
The Acquisition was accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company has estimated the fair value of Walkers assets acquired and liabilities assumed and conformed the accounting policies of Walker to its own accounting policies.
The pro forma combined financial statements do not necessarily reflect what the combined companys financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Acquisition occurred on the dates indicated. They also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.
2. Financing Transactions
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company paid to the Selling Shareholders an initial aggregate purchase price comprised of approximately $178 million payable in cash subject to working capital and certain other adjustments set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and $25 million aggregate principal amount of an unsecured promissory note (the Note) bearing interest at a rate of 4% per annum and to be paid in two equal installments of $12.5 million on the third and fourth anniversaries of the closing of the transaction. In addition, the Purchase Agreement provides for an additional earn-out amount to become payable by the Company to the extent that Walkers EBITDA (as defined in the accompanying earn-out agreement) during each of the years following the closing of the transaction through December 31, 2023 exceeds certain thresholds (the Earn-Out Payments). The Notes and the Earn-Out Payments are subject to offset by the Company in respect of any indemnity claims made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities. The closing of the transaction was subject to customary closing conditions. The Companys cash payments upon consummation of the Acquisition were funded by borrowings under the Companys $400.0 million senior credit facility provided by a syndicate of banks, which facility is described in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
3. Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is preliminary and, therefore, subject to change. The allocation of the purchase price was prepared based on the information available as of the Transaction Date and, therefore, may be materially impacted by certain adjustments on the finalization of the fair value assessments of Walkers assets and liabilities.
The following is the unaudited pro forma purchase price and the unaudited pro forma purchase price allocation based on Walkers December 31, 2018 balance sheet (in thousands):

This preliminary purchase price allocation, based on Walkers historical balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, has been used to prepare pro forma adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and statements of operations. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when the Company has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations. The final allocation could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the pro forma adjustments. The final allocation may include changes in allocations to intangible assets and goodwill, changes in U.S. tax laws subsequent to December 31, 2018, and other changes to assets and liabilities.
4. Pro Forma Adjustments
The accompanying pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to the following pro forma adjustments necessary to reflect the Acquisition as if the transaction occurred on January 1, 2018 in the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and on December 31, 2018 in the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet:
(A) Working capital adjustment reflects due from seller of $4.2 million, including the $20.5 million advance made to former owners on the Transaction Date.
(B) Reflects additional borrowings on the Companys senior credit facility to finance the acquisition of Walker ($198.5 million) and additional consideration payable in the form of notes issued to the former owners ($25.0 million). Further, reflects contingent earn-out payments associated with the achievement of specified milestones ($19.5 million, of which $8.5 million is current and $11.0 million is long-term). Contingent earn-out payments are recorded at their estimated fair value determined based on a probability-weighted income approach. This fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. Future changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent payments will be recognized immediately in earnings. Current maturities of long-term debt reflect the extinguishment of Walkers pre-acquisition long-term debt, which was paid off on the Transaction Date ($6.0 million).
(C) Reflects fair value adjustments to record the preliminary estimated fair value of intangible assets acquired (see Note 3) and amortization of preliminary fair value amounts allocated to definite-lived intangible assets over the preliminary estimated useful lives. The fair value and useful life calculations are preliminary and subject to change after the Company finalizes its review of Walkers tangible and intangible assets.
As part of the preliminary valuation analysis, the Company identified intangible assets, including backlog, trade names, and customer relationships. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is determined using an income approach, which requires a forecast of expected future cash flows. The following table summarizes the estimated useful lives of Walkers identifiable intangible assets, their fair values (in thousands) and pro forma amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2018 (in thousands):

The results of operations for Walker include, in Selling, General and Administrative, compensation expenses of approximately $9.6 million to the former owners under terms that are not included in their post-transaction employment agreements. These expenses have not been adjusted out as part of the pro forma adjustments shown herein.
(D) Reflects additional consideration payable for the tax equalization payment as a result of the Acquisition structuring. Adjustment to the statement of operations reflects the income tax effects of Walkers change in tax status from a nontaxable S corporation to a C corporation and pre-tax pro forma adjustments based on an estimated blended federal and state statutory tax rate of 23.5%.
(E) Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the consideration transferred and the aggregate fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
(F) Elimination of Walkers pre-existing stockholders equity balances due to change in ownership.
(G) Net increase in interest expense resulting from additional borrowings on Companys senior credit facility incurred to finance the acquisition of Walker ($6.5 million) as well as interest expense incurred on the notes to former owners ($1.0 million) offset by reduction in unutilized borrowing fee ($0.4 million) and reversal of interest expense on Walkers pre-acquisition long-term debt which was paid off on the Transaction Date (less than $0.1 million). The interest expense from additional borrowings on the Companys credit facility was calculated using actual monthly interest rates on the revolving credit facility during 2018. The weighted average interest rate on additional borrowings for the revolving credit facility was 3.251%. The effect on pro forma net income of changing the interest rate by 0.125% would be approximately $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.
(H) Represents the Companys payment of estimated transaction costs of $0.2 million.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Walker TX Holding Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Managements Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entitys preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entitys internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

WALKER TX HOLDING COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2018
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business: Walker TX Holding Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) was incorporated in Texas on May 13, 2013. On March 31, 2014, the Company executed the Agreement of Reorganization, pursuant to which it became the sole equity owner of Walker Engineering, Inc., Walker Electrical Contractors, Inc., Walker Logistics, LLC, and Walker Services Group, LLC.
The principal business activity of Walker Engineering, Inc. (WEI) and Walker Electrical Contractors, Inc. (WECI) is electrical construction and engineering in the commercial/industrial field. WEI conducts these activities primarily within the states of Texas and Oklahoma. The principal business activity of Walker Logistics, LLC (WL) is electrical logistic services. Walker Services Group, LLC (WSG) provides electrical service work. WECI, WL, and WSG were largely inactive during 2018. Walker Industrial, LLC (WIND) was formed in 2014 to provide electrical construction and engineering services to industrial customers in Texas and other Gulf Coast states. Premier Fabrication Solutions, LLC. (PREM) was formed in 2018 to provide prefabrication services with operations mainly within Texas.
Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Walker TX Holding Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the Company).

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The noncontrolling interest in WIND is immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates: Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used. Managements estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated costs and gross profit on contracts in process, self-insurance accruals and the estimated useful lives of property and equipment. Managements estimates and assumptions are derived from and are continually evaluated based upon available information, judgment, and experience. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating costs on construction contracts, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change within the near term.
Revenue and Cost Recognition on Construction Contracts: The Company recognizes revenues from fixed price, cost plus a guaranteed maximum price and cost plus construction contracts on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date to the estimated total costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers total costs to be the best available measure of progress on the construction contracts. Revenue on time and material contracts is recognized using the accrual method of accounting.
WALKER TX HOLDING COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2018
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Contract costs include all direct labor, materials, other direct costs, and allocated indirect costs related to contract performance. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in estimated job profitability, resulting from job performance, job conditions, contract penalty provisions, claims, change orders, and settlements are accounted for as changes in estimates in the current period.
The asset costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, represents billings in excess of revenues recognized.
Accounts Receivable: The Company records accounts receivable based on the amounts billed to customers. Most billings and past due receivables are determined based on contractual terms. The Company may accrue interest on its accounts receivable on a discretionary basis. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by management based on the Companys historical losses, specific customer circumstances and general economic conditions. Periodically, management reviews accounts receivable and records an allowance for specific customers based on current circumstances and charges off the receivable against the allowance when all attempts to collect the receivable have been exhausted. The allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2018, totaled $1,690,882.
Cash and cash equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Business and Credit Concentrations: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and receivables primarily from construction contracts. The Companys cash and cash equivalents consists of bank deposits in accounts that are federally insured up to $250,000 per financial institution, which at times, can be in excess of federally insured deposit limits. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited to a few customers in the construction industry. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers financial conditions and generally requires no collateral from its customers other than normal lien rights. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company derived approximately 23% of its revenue from one customer. At December 31, 2018, the Company had approximately 33% of its gross accounts and retainage receivables from two customers.
Company Owned Life Insurance: The Company is the owner of two life insurance contracts insuring the lives of certain key executives. Cash value of life insurance is reported in the financial statements net of any policy loans, with the annual increase in cash surrender value recognized in the statements of operations, net of premium costs. The Company had not taken any loans against the policies as of December 31, 2018. The cash surrender value of the policies was $640,171 at December 31, 2018.
Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the appropriate accounts are relieved of cost and accumulated depreciation, and any gain or loss is recognized. The assets estimated lives used in computing depreciation are as follows:
Leasehold improvements |
|
Lesser of lease term or estimated useful life |
Vehicles |
|
3 years |
Construction equipment |
|
3 years |
Office equipment and software |
|
3-7 years |
WALKER TX HOLDING COMPANY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2018
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Long-lived Assets: The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets used in operations when changes in events or circumstances indicate that the assets might have become impaired. The Company evaluates any possible impairment of long-lived assets using estimates of undiscounted cash flows. If this evaluation indicates that an asset is impaired, the Company records a charge to operations to reduce the assets carrying value to fair value. Management believes that no impairment existed at December 31, 2018.
Income Taxes: The Company has elected, with the consent of its shareholders, to be taxed as an S corporation under Section 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code and a similar section of the state income tax law, which provides that in lieu of corporation income taxes, the shareholders will be taxed on the Companys taxable income. Therefore, no provision for federal or certain state income taxes is included in the financial statements. The Company is subject to income taxes in certain states. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company has recorded $196,725 related to state income tax expense.
The Company follows guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) for income taxes under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740-10, Uncertainty in Income Taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon examination. For tax positions not meeting the more likely than not test, no tax benefit is recorded. Management does not believe any uncertain tax positions exist and there is no expected change over the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and income tax expense, respectively. The Company has no amounts accrued for in interest or penalties at December 31, 2018.
Self-Insurance Liabilities: The Company is substantially self-insured for employee group health claims in view of the relatively high per-incident deductibles absorbed under its insurance arrangements for these risks. Losses are estimated and accrued based upon known facts, historical trends, and industry averages. Estimated losses in excess of our deductible, which have not already been paid, are included in our accrual.
New Accounting Pronouncements: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance, which amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. The new accounting guidance establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which amends the existing guidance in ASC 840, Leases. This amendment requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases. Other significant provisions of the amendment include (i) defining the lease term to include the non-cancellable period together with periods for which there is a significant economic incentive for the lessee to extend or not terminate the lease; (ii) defining the initial lease liability to be recorded on the balance sheet to contemplate only those variable lease payments that depend on an index or that are in substance fixed; and (iii) a dual approach for determining whether lease expense is recognized on a straight-line or accelerated basis, depending on

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
whether the lessee is expected to consume more than an insignificant portion of the leased assets economic benefits. This guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
