Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On May 8, 2020, Mammoth Energy Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), received a letter from Mr. Jonathan H. Yellen announcing his resignation from the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), effective immediately (the “Resignation Letter”). Prior to his resignation, Mr. Yellen was a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.
The Resignation Letter was attached to an e-mail also received on May 8, 2020 (the “E-mail”) expressing Mr. Yellen’s views on the application of Accounting Standards Codification 450-20 to the Company’s outstanding receivable from the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (the “PREPA”).
On May 13, 2020, the Company received a letter from Mr. Yellen (the “May 13 Letter”) summarizing his reasons for resigning from the Board, specifically referencing concerns regarding corporate governance matters and the PREPA receivable matter discussed above. Copies of the Resignation Letter, the E-mail and the May 13 Letter are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K and the complete texts thereof are incorporated in this Item 5.02 by reference.
The Company disagrees with the comments made by Mr. Yellen in the May 13 Letter regarding the Board, its committees and their processes. Further, the Company rejects and disagrees with any suggestion by Mr. Yellen that may be contained in the E-mail or the May 13 Letter that the Company’s receivable from PREPA is not appropriately presented and disclosed in the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s position follows a full discussion and review of the matter by management and the Audit Committee. A description of the Company’s position on the receivable from PREPA, as well as the risk factors associated therewith, can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.
