The Company has insurance coverage for physical partial loss to its assets, employer’s liability, automobile liability, commercial general liability, workers’ compensation and insurance for other specific risks. The Company has also elected in some cases to accept a greater amount of risk through increased deductibles on certain insurance policies. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the policies require a deductible per occurrence of up to $0.3 million. The Company establishes liabilities for the unpaid deductible portion of claims incurred relating to physical loss to its assets, employer's liability, automobile liability, commercial general liability and workers’ compensation based on estimates. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the policies contained an aggregate stop loss of $2.0 million. The Company also self-insures its employee health insurance. The Company has coverage on its self-insurance program in the form of a stop loss of $0.2 million per participant and an aggregate stop-loss of $5.8 million for the calendar year ending December 31, 2018. These estimates may change in the near term as actual claims continue to develop. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, accrued insurance claims were $4.2 million and $2.9 million, respectively.
Pursuant to certain customer contracts in our infrastructure services segment, the Company warrants equipment and labor performed under the contracts for a specified period following substantial completion of the work. Generally, the warranty is for one year or less. No liabilities were accrued as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and no expense was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2018 or 2017 related to warranty claims. However, if warranty claims occur, the Company could be required to repair or replace warrantied items, which in most cases are covered by warranties extended from the manufacturer of the equipment. In the event the manufacturer of equipment failed to perform on a warranty obligation or denied a warranty claim made by the Company, the Company could be required to pay for the cost of the repair or replacement.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is required to provide bid bonds to certain customers in the infrastructure services segment as part of the bidding process. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company, if awarded the project, will perform under the terms of the contract. Bid bonds are typically provided for a percentage of the total contract value. Additionally, the Company may be required to provide performance and payment bonds for contractual commitments related to projects in process. These bonds provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of a contract and that the Company will pay subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under a contract or to pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company must reimburse the surety for expenses or outlays it incurs. As of June 30, 2018, outstanding bid bonds and performance and payment bonds totaled $1.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The estimated the cost to complete projects secured by the performance and payment bonds totaled $0.6 million as of June 30, 2018. As of December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any outstanding bid bonds or performance and payment bonds.
The Company is routinely involved in state and local tax audits. During 2015, the State of Ohio assessed taxes on the purchase of equipment the Company believes is exempt under state law. The Company appealed the assessment and a hearing was held in 2017. As a result of the hearing, the Company received a decision from the State of Ohio. The Company is appealing the decision and while it is not able to predict the outcome of the appeal, this matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On August 1, 2016, a putative class and collective action lawsuit alleging that Redback Energy failed to pay a class of workers overtime in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act and Texas law was filed titled Michael Caffey, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Redback Energy Services LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas. The parties reached a settlement of this matter in April 2017. The settlement was paid and did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On January 26, 2017, a collective action lawsuit alleging that Stingray Pressure Pumping LLC ("Pressure Pumping") failed to pay a class of workers in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act was filed titled Ryan Crosby vs. Stingray Pressure Pumping LLC, in the United Stated District Court for the Southern District of Ohio Eastern Division. The Company is evaluating the background facts at this time and is not able to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or whether it will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On June 27, 2017, a complaint alleging negligence, as a result of a motor vehicle accident, was filed titled Donnelle Banks, individually and as parent and next Friend for Leila Ann Hollis, a minor, vs. Redback Coil Tubing LLC and Mammoth Energy Services, Inc. in the District Court of Gregg County, Texas. This matter is covered by insurance and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Grimm Puerto Rico, LLC; Aseguradoras A, B & C; John Doe; Richard Doe, in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Superior Court of San Juan. The plaintiffs allege negligent acts by the defendants caused an electrical failure in Puerto Rico resulting in damages of at least $300 million. The Company believes this claim is without merit and will vigorously defend the action. However, the Company continues to evaluate the background facts and at this time is not able to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or whether it will have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company is involved in various other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
