PART I

Item 1. Business

General

Dril-Quip, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Dril-Quip”) designs, manufactures, sells and services highly engineered offshore drilling and production equipment that is well suited for use in deepwater, harsh environment and severe service applications. The Company’s principal products consist of subsea and surface wellheads, subsea and surface production trees, mudline hanger systems, specialty connectors and associated pipe, drilling and production riser systems, wellhead connectors and diverters. Dril-Quip also provides installation and reconditioning services and rents running tools for use in connection with the installation and retrieval of its products.

Dril-Quip has developed its broad line of subsea equipment, surface equipment and offshore rig equipment primarily through its internal product development efforts. The Company believes that it has achieved significant market share and brand name recognition with respect to its established products due to the technological capabilities, reliability, cost effectiveness and operational timesaving features of these products. In 2005, Dril-Quip introduced three new products, liner hangers, subsea control systems and subsea manifolds, which are expected to substantially broaden the market served by the Company. With the introduction of subsea control systems and subsea manifolds, the Company expects to be able to offer customers a fully integrated subsea production package, which will allow it to compete for the larger field development projects.

The Company’s operations are organized into three geographic segments—Western Hemisphere (including North and South America; headquartered in Houston, Texas), Eastern Hemisphere (including Europe and Africa; headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland) and Asia-Pacific (including the Pacific Rim, Southeast Asia, Australia, India and the Middle East; headquartered in Singapore). Each of these segments sells similar products and services. The Company manufactures its products at its facilities located in Houston, Texas; Aberdeen, Scotland; Singapore and Macae, Brazil. The Company maintains additional facilities for fabrication and/or reconditioning in Norway, Denmark, and Australia. The Company’s manufacturing operations are vertically integrated, allowing it to perform substantially all of its forging, heat treating, machining, fabrication, inspection, assembly and testing at its own facilities. See note 11 to the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s major subsidiaries are Dril-Quip

(Europe) Limited (DQE), located in Aberdeen with branches in Denmark, Norway and Holland; Dril-Quip Asia Pacific PTE Ltd. (DQAP), located in Singapore; and Dril-Quip do Brasil LTDA, located in Macae, Brazil. Dril-Quip (Nigeria) Ltd. is located in Port Harcourt, Nigeria and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of DQE.

Dril-Quip’s principal customers are major integrated oil and gas companies, large independent oil and gas companies and foreign national oil and gas companies that focus on offshore exploration and production. Dril-Quip markets its products through its offices and sales representatives located in the major international energy markets throughout the world. In 2005, the Company generated approximately 66% of its revenues from foreign sales.

The Company was co-founded in 1981 by Larry E. Reimert, Gary D. Smith, J. Mike Walker and an investor who is no longer affiliated with the Company. Together, Messrs. Reimert, Smith and Walker have over 100 years of combined experience in the oilfield equipment industry, essentially all of which has been with the Company and its major competitors. In addition, most of the Company’s key department managers have been with the Company over 10 years, on average.

The Company makes available free of charge on its internet website its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as soon as reasonably practicable after it electronically files such reports with, or furnishes them to, the SEC.

Industry Overview

Both the market for offshore drilling and production equipment and services and the Company’s business are substantially dependent on the financial condition of the oil and gas industry and, in particular, the willingness of oil and gas companies to make capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore. The level of capital expenditures has generally been dependent upon the prevailing view of future oil and gas prices, which are influenced by numerous factors affecting the supply and demand for oil and gas, including worldwide economic activity, interest rates and the cost of capital, environmental regulation, tax policies, and the ability of OPEC and other producing nations to set and maintain production levels and prices. Capital expenditures are also dependent on the cost of exploring for and producing oil and gas, the sale and expiration dates of offshore leases, the discovery rate of new oil and gas reserves in offshore areas and technological advances. Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have historically been characterized by significant volatility. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—A material or extended decline in expenditures by the oil and gas industry could significantly reduce our revenue and income.

to invest in areas such as Russia and the Middle East, an increasing amount of this capital spending has been in the deepwater areas in which the Company operates. However, any future decline in oil and gas prices significantly below current levels would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. There can be no assurance that the current oil price levels will lead to increases in exploration and development activity or that demand for the Company’s products and services will reflect such improvement, if any.

Products and Services

Products

Dril-Quip designs, manufactures, fabricates, inspects, assembles, tests and markets subsea equipment, surface equipment and offshore rig equipment. In 2005, the Company derived approximately 85% of its revenues from the sale of its products. The Company’s products are used to explore for oil and gas on offshore drilling rigs, such as floating rigs and jack-ups, and for drilling and production of oil and gas wells on offshore platforms, TLPs, Spars and moored vessels such as FPSOs. TLPs are floating production platforms that are connected to the ocean floor via vertical mooring tethers (called tension legs). A Spar is a floating cylindrical structure approximately six or seven times longer than its diameter that is anchored in place (like a Spar buoy). FPSOs are floating production, storage and offloading monohull moored vessels.

Subsea Equipment. Subsea equipment is used in the drilling and production of offshore oil and gas wells around the world. Included in the subsea equipment product line are subsea wellheads, mudline hanger systems, specialty connectors and associated pipe, subsea production trees, valves and TLP and Spar well systems. In 2005, the Company introduced three new products: liner hangers, multiplex subsea control systems and multiwell subsea manifolds.

Subsea wellheads are pressure-containing forged and machined metal housings in which casing hangers are landed and sealed subsea to suspend casing (downhole pipe). As drilling depth increases, successively smaller diameter casing strings are installed, each suspended by an independent casing hanger. Subsea wellheads are utilized when drilling from floating drilling rigs, either semi-submersible or drillship types, and TLPs and Spars. The Company’s SS-15 Big Bore Subsea Wellhead System is designed to accommodate additional casing strings installed through a conventional marine riser and a subsea blowout preventer.

Mudline hanger systems are used in jack-up drilling operations to support the weight of the various casing strings at the ocean floor while drilling a well. They also provide a method to disconnect the casing strings in an orderly manner at the ocean floor after the well has been drilled, and subsequently reconnect to enable production of the well by either tying it back vertically to a subsequently installed platform or by installing a subsea tree.

Large diameter weld-on specialty connectors (threaded or stab type) are used in offshore wells drilled from floating drilling rigs, jack-ups, fixed platforms, TLPs and Spars. Specialty connectors join lengths of conductor or large diameter (16-inch or greater) casing. Specialty connectors provide a more rapid connection than other methods of connecting lengths of pipe. Connectors may be sold individually or as an assembly after being welded to sections of Company or customer supplied pipe. Dril-Quip’s weld-on specialty connectors are designed to prevent cross threading and provide a quick, convenient method of joining casing joints with structural integrity compatible with casing strength.

A subsea production tree is an assembly composed of valves, a wellhead connector, control equipment and various other components installed on a subsea wellhead or a mudline hanger system and used to control the flow of oil and gas from a producing well. Subsea trees may be either stand alone satellite type or template mounted cluster arrangements. Both types typically produce via flowlines to a central control point located on a platform, TLP, Spar or FPSO. The use of subsea production trees has become an increasingly important method for producing wells located in hard-to-reach deepwater areas or economically marginal fields located in shallower waters. The Company is an established manufacturer of more complicated dual-bore production trees, which are used in severe service

applications. In addition, Dril-Quip manufactures a patented single bore (SingleBore^TM) subsea completion system which features a hydraulic mechanism instead of a wireline-installed mechanism that allows the operator to plug the tubing hanger annulus remotely from the surface via a hydraulic control line and subsequently unplug it when the well is put on production. This mechanism eliminates the need for an expensive multibore installation and workover riser, thereby saving both cost and installation time. Dril-Quip’s guidelineless subsea production tree is used in ultra-deepwater applications. This tree features remote multiple flowline and control connections, utilizing remotely operated intervention tools. The Company’s subsea production trees are generally custom designed and manufactured to customer specifications.

A liner hanger is used to hang-off and seal casing into a previously installed casing string in the well bore, and can provide a means of tying back the liner for production to surface. Dril-Quip has developed a state-of-the-art liner hanger system and is in the final phase of field-performance testing. This product represents Dril-Quip’s entry into the market for downhole tools and is expected to provide new market opportunities for the Company.

A subsea control system is used to remotely control the operations of subsea production equipment such as subsea trees and/or manifolds. In December 2005, Dril-Quip successfully installed in the North Sea a multiplex subsea control system used to control both a subsea manifold and subsea trees. The addition of this product expands Dril-Quip’s opportunities in subsea development projects.

A subsea manifold is a structure located on the ocean floor consisting of valves, chokes, flowline connections and a control module used to collect and control the flow of oil and gas from subsea wells for delivery to a terminal. Dril-Quip successfully installed its first subsea manifold system in December 2005. This new product further complements the Company’s product offerings for integrated system developments.

Surface Equipment. Surface equipment is principally used for flow control on offshore production platforms, TLPs and Spars. Included in the Company’s surface equipment product line are platform wellheads and platform production trees. Dril-Quip’s development of platform wellheads and platform production trees was facilitated by adaptation of its existing subsea wellhead and tree technology to surface wellheads and trees.

Platform wellheads are pressure-containing forged and machined metal housings in which casing hangers are landed and sealed at the platform deck to suspend casings. The Company emphasizes the use of metal-to-metal sealing wellhead systems with operational time-saving features which can be used in high pressure, high temperature and corrosive drilling and production applications.

After installation of a wellhead, a platform production tree, consisting of gate valves, a wellhead connector, controls, tree cap and associated equipment, is installed on the wellhead to control and regulate oil or gas production. Platform production trees are similar to subsea production trees but utilize less complex equipment and more manual, rather than hydraulically activated, valves and connectors. Platform wellheads and platform production trees and associated equipment are designed and manufactured in accordance with customer specifications.

Offshore Rig Equipment. Offshore rig equipment includes drilling and production riser systems, wellhead connectors and diverters. The drilling riser system consists of (i) lengths of riser pipe and associated riser connectors that secure one to another; (ii) the telescopic joint, which connects the entire drilling riser system to the diverter at the rig and provides a means to compensate for vertical motion of the rig relative to the ocean floor; and (iii) the wellhead connector, which provides a means for remote connection and disconnection of the drilling riser system to and from the blowout preventer stack. Production risers provide a vertical conduit from the subsea wellhead to a TLP, Spar or FPSO. The wellhead connector also provides remote connection/disconnection of the blowout preventer stack, production tree or production riser to/from the wellhead. Diverters are used to provide protection from shallow gas blowouts and to divert gases off of the rig during the drilling operation.

Wellhead connectors and drilling and production riser systems are also used on both TLPs and Spars, which are being installed more frequently in deepwater applications. The principal markets for offshore rig equipment are new

rigs, rig upgrades, TLPs and Spars. Diverters, drilling and production risers and wellhead connectors are generally designed and manufactured to customer specifications.

Certain products of the Company are used in potentially hazardous drilling, completion and production applications that can cause personal injury, product liability and environmental claims. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Our business involves numerous operating hazards that may not be covered by insurance.” The occurrence of an event not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

Services

Services provided by Dril-Quip include field installation services, reconditioning of its products which are customer-owned, and rental running tools for installation and retrieval of its products. These services are provided from the Company’s worldwide locations and represented approximately 15% of revenues in 2005.

Field Installation. Dril-Quip provides field installation services through the use of its technicians. These technicians assist in the onsite installation of Company products and are available on a 24-hour call out from the Company’s facilities located in Houston, Texas; Aberdeen, Scotland; Stavanger, Norway; Esbjerg, Denmark; Singapore; Perth, Australia; and Macae, Brazil.

Reconditioning. The Company provides reconditioning of its products at its facilities in Houston, Texas; Aberdeen, Scotland; Stavanger, Norway; Singapore; and Macae, Brazil.

Rental. The Company rents running and installation tools for use in installing its products. These tools are used to install and retrieve Company products which are purchased by customers. Running tools are available from Dril-Quip’s locations in Houston, Texas; Aberdeen, Scotland; Stavanger, Norway; Esbjerg, Denmark; Beverwijk, Holland; Singapore; Perth, Australia; and Macae, Brazil.

Manufacturing

Dril-Quip has major manufacturing facilities in Houston, Texas; Aberdeen, Scotland; and Singapore. Each location conducts a broad variety of processes, including machining, fabrication, inspection, assembly and testing. The Houston facility provides forged and heat treated products to all the major manufacturing facilities.

The Company’s Houston and Aberdeen manufacturing plants are ISO 9001 and American Petroleum Institute certified. In addition, the Company’s manufacturing facility in Singapore is ISO 9001 certified. See “Properties—Major Manufacturing Facilities.” Dril-Quip maintains its high standards of product quality through the use of quality assurance specialists who work with product manufacturing personnel throughout the manufacturing process by inspecting and documenting equipment as it is processed through the Company’s manufacturing facilities. The Company has the capability to manufacture various products from each of its product lines at its major manufacturing facilities and believes that this localized manufacturing capability is essential in order to compete with the Company’s major competitors.

The Company’s manufacturing process is vertically integrated, producing, in house, a majority of its forging requirements and essentially all of its heat treatment, machining, fabrication, inspection, assembly and testing. The Company’s primary raw material is cast steel ingots, from which it produces steel shaped forgings at its forging and heat treatment facility. The Company routinely purchases steel ingots from approximately four suppliers on a purchase order basis and does not have any long-term supply contracts. The Company’s Houston facility provides forgings and heat treatment for its Aberdeen and Singapore facilities. The Company’s major competitors depend on outside sources for all or a substantial portion of their forging and heat treatment requirements. The Company has made significant capital investments in developing its vertically integrated manufacturing capability. Prolonged periods of low demand in the market for offshore drilling and production equipment could have a greater effect on the Company than on certain of its competitors that have not made large capital investments in facilities.

Dril-Quip’s manufacturing facilities utilize state-of-the-art computer numerically controlled (“CNC”) machine tools and equipment, which contribute to the Company’s product quality and timely delivery. The Company has also developed a cost effective, in-house machine tool rebuild capability which produces “like new” machine upgrades with customized features to enhance the economic manufacture of its specialized products. The Company purchases quality used machine tools as they become available and stores them at its facilities to be rebuilt and upgraded as the need arises. Rebuilding used machine tools allows for greater customization suitable for manufacturing Dril-Quip proprietary product lines. This provides the added advantage of requiring only in-house expertise for repairs and maintenance of these machines. A significant portion of the Company’s manufacturing capacity growth has been through the rebuild/upgrade of quality used machine tools, including the replacement of outdated control systems with state-of-the-art CNC controls.

The Company has increased its facilities at its Eldridge site in Houston, Texas from approximately 280,000 square feet at the end of 1997 to approximately 886,000 square feet at the end of 2005. Dril-Quip has consolidated its finish machining, assembly and warehouse functions in Houston from its Hempstead Highway location to its larger, state-of-the-art Eldridge Parkway facility.

Customers

The Company’s principal customers are major integrated oil and gas companies, large independent oil and gas companies and foreign national oil and gas companies. Offshore drilling contractors and engineering and construction companies also represent a minor customer base. The Company’s customers are generally oil and gas companies that are well-known participants in offshore exploration and production.

The Company is not dependent on any one customer or group of customers. In 2004, the Company’s top 15 customers represented approximately 61% of total revenues, with ConocoPhillips accounting for 15% of the Company’s total revenues. In 2005, the Company’s top 15 customers represented approximately 62% of total revenues, with no customer accounting for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues. The number and variety of the Company’s products required in a given year by any one customer depends upon the amount of that customer’s capital expenditure budget devoted to offshore exploration and production and on the results of competitive bids for major projects. Consequently, a customer that accounts for a significant portion of revenues in one fiscal year may represent an immaterial portion of revenues in subsequent years. While the Company is not dependent on any one customer or group of customers, the loss of one or more of its significant customers could, at least on a short-term basis, have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

Marketing and Sales

Dril-Quip markets its products and services throughout the world directly through its sales personnel in two domestic and eleven international locations. In addition, in certain foreign markets where the Company does not maintain offices, it utilizes independent sales representatives to enhance its marketing and sales efforts. Some of the locations in which Dril-Quip has sales representatives are India, Canada, Mexico, the Philippines, Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia, China, Japan, and the Middle East. Although they do not have authority to contractually bind the Company, these representatives market the Company’s products in their respective territories in return for sales commissions. The Company also advertises its products and services in trade and technical publications targeted to its customer base. It also participates in industry conferences and trade shows to enhance industry awareness of its products.

The Company’s customers generally order products on a purchase order basis. Orders are typically filled within three to six months after receipt of a purchase order, depending on the type of product and whether it is sold out of inventory or requires some customization. Contracts for certain of the Company’s larger, more complex products, such as subsea production trees, drilling risers and equipment for TLPs and Spars can take a year or more to complete.

The primary factors influencing a customer’s decision to purchase the Company’s products are the quality, reliability and reputation of the product, price and technologically superior features. Timely delivery of equipment is also very important to customer operations and the Company maintains an experienced sales coordination staff to help assure such delivery. For large drilling and production system orders, project management teams coordinate customer needs with engineering, manufacturing and service organizations, as well as with subcontractors and vendors.

A portion of the Company’s business consists of designing, manufacturing, selling and installing equipment for major projects pursuant to competitive bids, and the number of such projects in any year fluctuates. The Company’s profitability on such projects is critically dependent on making accurate and cost effective bids and performing efficiently in accordance with bid specifications. Various factors can adversely affect the Company’s performance on individual projects, with potential adverse effects on project profitability.

Product Development and Engineering

The technological demands of the oil and gas industry continue to increase as offshore exploration and drilling expand into more hostile environments. Conditions encountered in these environments include well pressures of up to 15,000 psi (pounds per square inch), mixed flows of oil and gas under high pressure that may also be highly corrosive and water depths in excess of 8,000 feet. Since its founding, Dril-Quip has actively engaged in continuing product development to generate new products and improve existing products. When developing new products, the Company typically seeks to design the most technologically advanced version for a particular application to establish its reputation and qualification in that product. Thereafter, the Company leverages its expertise in the more technologically advanced product to produce less costly and complex versions of the product for less demanding applications. The Company also focuses its activities on reducing the overall cost to the customer, which includes not only the initial capital cost but also operating and installation costs associated with its products.

The Company has continually introduced new products and product enhancements since its founding in 1981. In the 1990s, the Company introduced a series of new products, including diverters, wellhead connectors, SingleBore^TM subsea trees, improved severe service dual bore subsea trees, subsea and platform valves, platform wellheads, platform trees, subsea tree workover riser systems, drilling risers and TLP and Spar production riser systems. In 2005, Dril-Quip introduced three new products: liner hangers, subsea control systems and subsea manifolds.

Dril-Quip’s product development work is conducted at its facilities in Houston, Texas and Aberdeen, Scotland. In addition to the work of its product development staff, the Company’s application engineering staff provides engineering services to customers in connection with the design and sales of its products. The Company’s ability to develop new products and maintain technological advantages is important to its future success. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to develop new products, successfully differentiate itself from its competitors or adapt to evolving markets and technologies.

The Company believes that the success of its business depends more on the technical competence, creativity and marketing abilities of its employees than on any individual patent, trademark or copyright. Nevertheless, as part of its ongoing product development and manufacturing activities, Dril-Quip’s policy has been to seek patents when appropriate on inventions concerning new products and product improvements. All patent rights for products developed by employees are assigned to the Company and almost all of the Company’s products have components that are covered by patents.

Dril-Quip has numerous U.S. registered trademarks, including Dril-Quip^®, Quik-Thread^®, Quick-Stab^®, Multi-Thread^®, MS-15^®, SS-15^®, SS-10^®, SU-90^®, LS-15^® and DX^®. The Company has registered its trademarks in the countries where such registration is deemed material.

Although in the aggregate the Company’s patents and trademarks are of considerable importance to the manufacturing and marketing of many of its products, the Company does not consider any single patent or trademark

or group of patents or trademarks to be material to its business as a whole, except the Dril-Quip^® trademark. At December 31, 2005, the Company held 75 U.S. patents and 133 foreign patents. The Company also relies on trade secret protection for its confidential and proprietary information. The Company routinely enters into confidentiality agreements with its employees and suppliers. There can be no assurance, however, that others will not independently obtain similar information or otherwise gain access to the Company’s trade secrets.

Competition

Dril-Quip faces significant competition from other manufacturers and suppliers of exploration and production equipment. Several of its primary competitors are diversified multinational companies with substantially larger operating staffs and greater capital resources than those of the Company and which, in many instances, have been engaged in the manufacturing business for a much longer period of time than the Company. The Company competes principally with Vetco International and the petroleum production equipment segments of Cooper Cameron Corporation, FMC Technologies, Inc. and Aker Kvaerner.

Because of their relative size and diversity of products, several of these companies have the ability to provide “turnkey” services for offshore drilling and production applications, which enables them to use their own products to the exclusion of Dril-Quip’s products. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—We may be unable to successfully compete with other manufacturers of drilling and production equipment.” The Company also competes to a lesser extent with a number of other companies in various products. The principal competitive factors in the petroleum drilling and production equipment markets are quality, reliability and reputation of the product, price, technology, service and timely delivery.

Employees

The total number of the Company’s employees as of December 31, 2005 was 1,514. Of these, 948 were located in the United States. Substantially all of the Company’s employees are not covered by collective bargaining agreements, and the Company considers its employee relations to be good.

The Company’s operations depend in part on its ability to attract quality employees. While the Company believes that its wage and salary rates are competitive and that its relationship with its labor force is good, a significant increase in the wages and salaries paid by competing employers could result in a reduction of the Company’s labor force, increases in the wage and salary rates paid by the Company or both. If either of these events were to occur, in the near-term, the profits realized by the Company from work in progress would be reduced and, in the long-term, the production capacity and profitability of the Company could be diminished and the growth potential of the Company could be impaired. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Loss of our key management or other personnel could adversely impact our business.”

Governmental Regulations

Many aspects of the Company’s operations are affected by political developments and are subject to both domestic and foreign governmental regulations, including those relating to oilfield operations, worker safety and the protection of the environment. In addition, the Company depends on the demand for its services from the oil and gas industry and, therefore, is affected by changing taxes, price controls and other laws and regulations relating to the oil and gas industry generally, including those specifically directed to offshore operations. The adoption of laws and regulations curtailing exploration and development drilling for oil and gas for economic or other policy reasons could adversely affect the Company’s operations by limiting demand for the Company’s products. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Our operations and our customers’ operations are subject to a variety of governmental laws and regulations that may increase our costs, limit the demand for our products and services or restrict our operations.”

In recent years, increased concern has been raised over the protection of the environment. Offshore drilling in certain areas has been opposed by environmental groups and, in certain areas, has been restricted. To the extent that

new laws or other governmental actions prohibit or restrict offshore drilling or impose additional environmental protection requirements that result in increased costs to the oil and gas industry in general and the offshore drilling industry in particular, the business of the Company could be adversely affected. The Company cannot determine to what extent its future operations and earnings may be affected by new legislation, new regulations or changes in existing regulations. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Our business and our customers’ businesses are subject to environmental laws and regulations that may increase our costs, limit the demand for our products and services or restrict our operations.”

Based on the Company’s experience to date, the Company does not currently anticipate any material adverse effect on its business or consolidated financial position as a result of future compliance with existing environmental laws and regulations controlling the discharge of materials into the environment. However, future events, such as changes in existing laws and regulations or their interpretation, more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies, or stricter or different interpretations of existing laws and regulations, may require additional expenditures by the Company, which may be material.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In this Item 1A, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” and “Dril-Quip” used herein refer to Dril-Quip, Inc. and its subsidiaries unless otherwise indicated or as the context so requires.

Our principal stockholders have the ability to significantly influence our management and affairs and matters on which shareholders may vote.

Our principal stockholders, Larry E. Reimert, Gary D. Smith and J. Mike Walker and certain entities they control, beneficially own approximately 43% of our common stock and are able to exert significant control over us. Messrs. Reimert, Smith and Walker and certain entities they control are parties to a stockholders agreement pursuant to which each party has agreed to vote the shares of our common stock held by such party to elect to our board of directors one designee of Mr. Reimert and his related parties, one designee of Mr. Smith and his related parties and one designee of Mr. Walker. As a result, Messrs. Reimert, Smith and Walker are able to significantly influence all matters affecting us. In addition, such ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control. Our principal stockholders are generally not prohibited from selling their interest in us to a third party. The rights and obligations of each of Messrs. Reimert, Smith and Walker and their related parties under the stockholders agreement terminate if they or their permitted transferees cease to own more than 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock.

A material or extended decline in expenditures by the oil and gas industry could significantly reduce our revenue and income.

Our business depends upon the condition of the oil and gas industry and, in particular, the willingness of oil and gas companies to make capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore. The level of capital expenditures is generally dependent on the prevailing view of future oil and gas prices, which are influenced by numerous factors affecting the supply and demand for oil and gas, including:

•

worldwide economic activity;

•

the level of exploration and production activity;

•

interest rates and the cost of capital;

•

environmental regulation;

•

federal, state and foreign policies regarding exploration and development of oil and gas;

•

the ability of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to set and maintain production levels and pricing;

•

the cost of exploring for and producing oil and gas;

•

the cost of developing alternative energy sources;

•

the sale and expiration dates of offshore leases in the United States and overseas;

•

the discovery rate of new oil and gas reserves in offshore areas;

•

technological advances; and

•

weather conditions.

Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have been characterized by significant volatility in recent years. Worldwide military, political and economic events have contributed to oil and natural gas price volatility and are likely to continue to do so in the future. Although hydrocarbon prices have improved in recent years and the level of offshore exploration, drilling and production activity has increased, we cannot assure you that such price and activity levels will be sustained and that there will not be continued volatility in the level of drilling and production related activities. Even during periods of high prices for oil and natural gas, companies exploring for oil and gas may cancel or curtail programs, or reduce their levels of capital expenditures for exploration and production for a variety of reasons. In addition, a significant and prolonged decline in hydrocarbon prices would likely have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our international operations expose us to instability and changes in economic and political conditions and other risks inherent to international business, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition.

We have substantial international operations, with approximately 62%, 64% and 66%, respectively, of our revenues derived from foreign sales in each of 2003, 2004 and 2005. We operate our business and market our products and services in all of the significant oil and gas producing areas in the world and are, therefore, subject to the risks customarily attendant to international operations and investments in foreign countries. Risks associated with our international operations include:

•

volatility in general economic, social and political conditions;

•

terrorist acts, war and civil disturbances;

•

expropriation or nationalization of assets;

•

renegotiation or nullification of existing contracts;

•

foreign taxation, including changes in law or interpretation of existing law;

•

assaults on property or personnel;

•

restrictive action by local governments;

•

foreign and domestic monetary policies;

•

limitations on repatriation of earnings;

•

travel limitations or operational problems caused by public health threats; and

•

changes in currency exchange rates.

Any of these risks could have an adverse effect on our ability to manufacture products abroad or the demand for our products and services in some locations. To date, we have not experienced any significant problems in foreign countries arising from local government actions or political instability, but there is no assurance that such problems will not arise in the future. Interruption of our international operations could have a material adverse effect on our overall operations.

We are subject to taxation in many jurisdictions and there are inherent uncertainties in the final determination of our tax liabilities.

As a result of our international operations, we are subject to taxation in many jurisdictions. Therefore, the final determination of our tax liabilities involves the interpretation of the statutes and requirements of taxing authorities worldwide. Foreign income tax returns of foreign subsidiaries, unconsolidated affiliates and related entities are routinely examined by foreign tax authorities. These tax examinations may result in assessments of additional taxes or penalties or both.

We may suffer losses as a result of foreign currency fluctuations and limitations on the ability to repatriate income or capital to the U.S.

We conduct a portion of our business in currencies other than the United States dollar, and our operations are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We cannot assure you that we will be able to protect the company against such fluctuations in the future. Historically, we have not conducted business in countries that limit repatriation of earnings. However, as we expand our international operations, we may begin operating in countries that have such limitations. Further, we cannot assure you that the countries in which we currently operate will not adopt policies limiting repatriation of earnings in the future.

Our business involves numerous operating hazards that may not be covered by insurance. The occurrence of an event not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial conditions and results of operations.

Our products are used in potentially hazardous drilling, completion and production applications that can cause personal injury, product liability and environmental claims. A catastrophic occurrence at a location where our equipment and/or services are used may expose us to substantial liability for personal injury, wrongful death, product liability or commercial claims. To the extent available, we maintain insurance coverage that we believe is customary in the industry. Such insurance does not, however, provide coverage for all liabilities, and we cannot assure you that our insurance coverage will be adequate to cover claims that may arise or that we will be able to maintain adequate insurance at rates we consider reasonable. The occurrence of an event not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may lose money on fixed-price contracts.

A portion of our business consists of designing, manufacturing, selling and installing equipment for major projects pursuant to competitive bids, and is performed on a fixed-price basis. Under these contracts, we are typically responsible for all cost overruns, other than the amount of any cost overruns resulting from requested changes in order specifications. Our actual costs and any gross profit realized on these fixed-price contracts will often vary from the estimated amounts on which these contracts were originally based. This may occur for various reasons, including:

•

errors in estimates or bidding;

•

changes in availability and cost of labor and materials; and

•

variations in productivity from our original estimates.

These variations and the risks inherent in our projects may result in reduced profitability or losses on projects. Depending on the size of a project, variations from estimated contract performance could have a significant impact on our operating results.

Our business could be adversely affected if we do not develop new products and secure and retain patents related to our products.

Technology is an important component of our business and growth strategy, and our success as a company depends to a significant extent on the development and implementation of new product designs and improvements. Whether we can continue to develop systems and services and related technologies to meet evolving industry requirements and, if so, at prices acceptable to our customers will be significant factors in determining our ability to compete in the industry in which we operate. Many of our competitors are large multinational companies that may have significantly greater financial resources than we have, and they may be able to devote greater resources to research and development of new systems, services and technologies than we are able to do.

Our ability to compete effectively will also depend on our ability to continue to obtain patents on our proprietary technology and products. As of December 31, 2005 we held 75 U.S. patents and 133 foreign patents. Although we do not consider any single patent to be material to our business as a whole, the inability to protect our future innovations through patents could have a material adverse effect.

We may be required to recognize a charge against current earnings because of percentage-of-completion accounting.

Some of our revenues are earned on a percentage-of-completion basis generally based on the ratio of costs incurred to the total estimated costs. Accordingly, purchase order price and cost estimates are reviewed periodically as the work progresses, and adjustments proportionate to the percentage of completion are reflected in the period when such estimates are revised. To the extent that these adjustments result in a reduction or elimination of previously reported profits, we would have to recognize a charge against current earnings, which could be significant depending on the size of the project or the adjustment.

Loss of our key management or other personnel could adversely impact our business.

We depend on the services of our executive management team, Larry E. Reimert, Gary D. Smith and J. Mike Walker. The loss of any of these officers could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. In addition, competition for skilled machinists, fabricators and technical personnel among companies that rely heavily on engineering and technology is intense, and the loss of qualified employees or an inability to attract, retain and motivate additional highly skilled employees required for the operation and expansion of our business could hinder our ability to conduct research activities successfully and develop and produce marketable products and services. While we believe that our wage rates are competitive and that our relationship with our skilled labor force is good, a significant increase in the wages paid by competing employers could result in a reduction of our skilled labor force, increases in the wage rates paid by us or both. If either of these events were to occur, in the near-term, the profits realized by us from work in progress would be reduced and, in the long-term, our production capacity and profitability could be diminished and our growth potential could be impaired.

Our operations and our customers’ operations are subject to a variety of governmental laws and regulations that may increase our costs, limit the demand for our products and services or restrict our operations.

Our business and our customers’ businesses may be significantly affected by:

•

federal, state and local and foreign laws and other regulations relating to the oilfield operations, worker safety and the protection of the environment;

•

changes in these laws and regulations; and

•

the level of enforcement of these laws and regulations.

In addition, we depend on the demand for our products and services from the oil and gas industry. This demand is affected by changing taxes, price controls and other laws and regulations relating to the oil and gas industry

generally, including those specifically directed to offshore operations. For example, the adoption of laws and regulations curtailing exploration and development drilling for oil and gas for economic or other policy reasons could adversely affect our operations by limiting demand for our products. We cannot determine the extent to which our future operations and earnings may be affected by new legislation, new regulations or changes in existing regulations.

Because of our foreign operations and sales, we are also subject to changes in foreign laws and regulations that may encourage or require hiring of local contractors or require foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction. If we fail to comply with any applicable law or regulation, our business, results of operations or financial condition may be adversely affected.

Our businesses and our customers’ businesses are subject to environmental laws and regulations that may increase our costs, limit the demand for our products and services or restrict our operations.

Our operations and the operations of our customers are also subject to federal, state and local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. These environmental laws and regulations affect the products and services we design, market and sell, as well as the facilities where we manufacture our products. In addition, environmental laws and regulations could limit our customers’ exploration and production activities. We are required to invest financial and managerial resources to comply with environmental laws and regulations and anticipate that we will continue to be required to do so in the future. These laws and regulations change frequently, which makes it impossible for us to predict their cost or impact on our future operations. The modification of existing laws or regulations or the adoption of new laws or regulations imposing more stringent environmental restrictions could adversely affect our operations.

These laws may provide for “strict liability” for damages to natural resources or threats to public health and safety, rendering a party liable for environmental damage without regard to negligence or fault on the part of such party. Sanctions for noncompliance may include revocation of permits, corrective action orders, administrative or civil penalties, and criminal prosecution. Some environmental laws and regulations provide for joint and several strict liability for remediation of spills and releases of hazardous substances. In addition, we may be subject to claims alleging personal injury or property damage as a result of alleged exposure to hazardous substances, as well as damage to natural resources. These laws and regulations also may expose us to liability for the conduct of or conditions caused by others, or for our acts-that were in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations at the time such acts were performed. Any of these laws and regulations could result in claims, fines or expenditures that could be material to our earnings, financial condition or cash flow.

We may be unable to successfully compete with other manufacturers of drilling and production equipment.

Several of our primary competitors are diversified multinational companies with substantially larger operating staffs and greater capital resources than ours and which have been engaged in the manufacturing business for a much longer time than us. If these competitors substantially increase the resources they devote to developing and marketing competitive products and services, we may not be able to compete effectively. Similarly, consolidation among our competitors could enhance their product and service offerings and financial resources, further intensifying competition.

The loss of a significant customer could have an adverse impact on our financial results.

Our principal customers are major integrated oil and gas companies, large independent oil and gas companies and foreign national oil and gas companies. Offshore drilling contractors and engineering and construction companies also represent a portion of our customer base. In 2004, our top 15 customers represented approximately 61% of total revenues, with ConocoPhillips accounting for approximately 15% of our total revenues. In 2005, our top 15 customers represented approximately 62% of total revenues, with no customers accounting for more than 10% of our total revenues. While we are not dependent on any one customer or group of customers, the loss of one or more of our significant customers could, at least on a short-term basis, have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our customers’ industries are undergoing continuing consolidation that may impact our results of operations.

The oil and gas industry is rapidly consolidating and, as a result, some of our largest customers have consolidated and are using their size and purchasing power to seek economies of scale and pricing concessions. This consolidation may result in reduced capital spending by some of our customers or the acquisition of one or more of our primary customers, which may lead to decreased demand for our products and services. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our level of sales to a customer that has consolidated or replace that revenue with increased business activity with other customers. As a result, the acquisition of one or more of our primary customers may have a significant negative impact on our results of operations or our financial condition. We are unable to predict what effect consolidations in the industry may have on price, capital spending by our customers, our selling strategies, our competitive position, our ability to retain customers or our ability to negotiate favorable agreements with our customers.

Increases in the cost of raw materials and energy used in our manufacturing processes could negatively impact our profitability.

During 2004 and 2005, commodity prices for items such as nickel, molybdenum and heavy metal scrap that are used to make the steel alloys required for our products increased significantly, resulting in an increase in our raw material costs. Similarly, energy costs to produce our products have increased significantly. If we are not successful in raising our prices on products, our margins will be negatively impacted.

We depend on third party suppliers for timely deliveries of raw materials, and our results of operations could be adversely affected if we are unable to obtain adequate supplies in a timely manner.

Our manufacturing operations depend upon obtaining adequate supplies of raw materials from third parties. The ability of these third parties to deliver raw materials may be affected by events beyond our control. Any interruption in the supply of raw materials needed to manufacture our products could adversely affect our business, results of operations and reputation with our customers.

Our shares that are eligible for future sale may have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or a perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities. This risk is compounded by the fact that a substantial portion of our common stock is owned by Messrs. Reimert, Smith and Walker and certain entities they control. Messrs. Reimert, Smith and Walker and certain entities they control have piggyback and demand registration rights that provide for the registration of the resale of shares at our expense which will allow those shares to be sold in the public market generally without restriction.

The market price of our common stock is volatile.

The trading price of our common stock and the price at which we may sell common stock in the future are subject to large fluctuations in response to any of the following:

•

limited trading volume in our common stock;

•

quarterly variations in operating results;

•

general financial market conditions;

•

the prices of natural gas and oil;

•

announcements by us and our competitors;

•

our liquidity;

•

changes in government regulations;

•

our ability to raise additional funds;

•

our involvement in litigation; and

•

other events.

We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the near future.

We have not paid any dividends in the past and do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Our board of directors reviews this policy on a regular basis in light of our earnings, financial condition and market opportunities. We currently intend to retain any earnings for the future operation and development of our business.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected certain aspects of the Company’s financial position and results of operations during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented elsewhere in this Report.

Overview

Dril-Quip designs, manufactures, sells and services highly engineered offshore drilling and production equipment that is well suited for use in deepwater, harsh environment and severe service applications. The Company designs and manufactures subsea equipment, surface equipment and offshore rig equipment for use by major integrated, large independent and foreign national oil and gas companies in offshore areas throughout the world. The Company’s principal products consist of subsea and surface wellheads, subsea and surface production trees, mudline hanger systems, specialty connectors and associated pipe, drilling and production riser systems, wellhead connectors and diverters. Dril-Quip also provides installation and reconditioning services and rents running tools for use in connection with the installation and retrieval of its products.

Both the market for offshore drilling and production equipment and services and the Company’s business are substantially dependent on the condition of the oil and gas industry and, in particular, the willingness of oil and gas companies to make capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore. Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have historically been characterized by significant volatility. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—A material or extended decline in expenditures by the oil and gas industry could significantly reduce our revenue and income.”

High oil and gas prices in 2004 and 2005 have resulted in oil operators increasing capital spending for both exploration and development programs. As various geopolitical issues have limited the ability of oil and gas companies to invest in areas such as Russia and the Middle East, an increasing amount of this capital spending has been in the deepwater areas in which the Company operates. However, any future decline in oil and gas prices significantly below current levels would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. There can be no assurance that the current oil price levels will lead to increases in exploration and development activity or that demand for the Company’s products and services will reflect such improvement, if any.

The Company operates its business and markets its products and services in all of the significant oil and gas producing areas in the world and is, therefore, subject to the risks customarily attendant to international operations and investments in foreign countries. These risks include nationalization, expropriation, war, acts of terrorism and civil disturbance, restrictive action by local governments, limitation on repatriation of earnings, change in foreign tax laws and change in currency exchange rates, any of which could have an adverse effect on either the Company’s ability to manufacture its products in its facilities abroad or the demand in certain regions for the Company’s products or both. To date, the Company has not experienced any significant problems in foreign countries arising from local government actions or political instability, but there is no assurance that such problems will not arise in the future. Interruption of the Company’s international operations could have a material adverse effect on its overall operations. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Our international operations expose us to instability and changes in economic and political conditions and other risks inherent to international business, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition.”

Dril-Quip’s revenues are generated from two sources: products and services. Product revenues are derived from the sale of offshore drilling and production equipment, and service revenues are earned when the Company provides installation and reconditioning services as well as rental running tools for installation and retrieval of its products. In 2005, the Company derived 85% of its revenues from the sale of its products and 15% of its revenues from services. Service revenues generally correlate to revenues from product sales, because increased product sales generate increased revenues from installation services and rental running tools. The Company has substantial international operations, with approximately 62%, 64% and 66% of its revenues derived from foreign sales in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. On the basis of revenues generated, approximately 64%, 58% and 65% of all products sold were manufactured in the United States during 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Generally, the Company attempts to raise its prices as its costs increase. However, the actual pricing of the Company’s products and services is impacted by a number of factors, including competitive pricing pressure, underutilized capacity in the oil service sector, maintenance of market share, the introduction of new products and general market conditions.

The Company accounts for larger and more complex projects that have relatively longer manufacturing time frames on a percentage of completion basis. During 2005, four projects representing approximately 14% of the Company’s revenue were accounted for using percentage of completion accounting. This percentage may fluctuate in the future. Revenues accounted for in this manner are generally recognized on the ratio of costs incurred to the total estimated costs. Accordingly, price and cost estimates are reviewed periodically as the work progresses, and adjustments proportionate to the percentage of completion are reflected in the period when such estimates are revised. Amounts received from customers in excess of revenues recognized are classified as a current liability. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—We may be required to recognize a charge against earnings because of percentage-of-completion accounting.”

The principal elements of cost of sales are labor, raw materials and manufacturing overhead. Variable costs, such as labor, raw materials, supplies and energy, generally account for approximately two-thirds of the Company’s cost of sales. The Company has experienced increased labor costs over the past few years due to the limited supply of skilled workers and during 2005 has begun to experience significant increases in raw material costs. Fixed costs, such as the fixed portion of manufacturing overhead, constitute the remainder of the Company’s cost of sales. The Company continually seeks to improve its efficiency and cost position. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues is also influenced by the product mix sold in any particular quarter and market conditions. The Company’s costs related to its foreign operations do not significantly differ from its domestic costs.

Year ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004

Revenues. Revenues increased by $119.2 million, or approximately 54%, to $340.8 million in 2005 from $221.6 million in 2004. The increase resulted primarily from increased product revenues in the Western Hemisphere, Asia-Pacific and the Eastern Hemisphere of $65.1 million, $13.6 million and $29.6 million, respectively. Service revenues increased by approximately $10.9 million with increased service revenues in the Western Hemisphere of $8.6 million and in the Eastern Hemisphere of $3.0 million, offset by decreased revenues in Asia-Pacific of $700,000. In general, the increase in revenues resulted from increased demand for the Company’s products realized on a worldwide basis as oil and gas companies have increased their levels of capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by $76.4 million, or approximately 50%, to $229.8 million for 2005 from $153.4 million for the same period in 2004. As a percentage of revenues, cost of sales were approximately 67.4% in 2005 and 69.3% in 2004. The reduction in cost of sales as a percentage of revenues resulted primarily from manufacturing efficiencies realized from the increased utilization of the Company’s manufacturing facilities, pricing and changes in product mix. This reduction occurred despite significant increases in the prices of raw materials, especially steel.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. For 2005, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $8.2 million or 25%, to $40.9 million from $32.7 million in 2004. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased labor and overhead expenses resulting from increased staffing levels in the areas of sales, administration and finance. The Company experienced approximately $767,000 in foreign currency transaction losses during 2005 versus approximately $878,000 in foreign currency transaction gains during 2004. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues declined from 14.8% in 2004 to 12.1% in 2005.

Engineering and Product Development Expenses. For 2005, engineering and product development expenses increased by $3.8 million, or approximately 22% to $20.9 million from $17.1 million in 2004. This was primarily due to increased headcount and the corresponding increased salary expenses related to new product development. Engineering and product development expenses as a percentage of revenues declined from 7.7% in 2004 to 6.1% in 2005.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for 2005 was $1.8 million as compared to interest expense of $1.1 million in 2004. This change resulted primarily from higher interest rates and additional borrowings during 2005 under the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit as compared to borrowings during 2004.

Income tax provision. Income tax expense for 2005 was $14.8 million on income before taxes of $47.4 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately 31%. Income tax expense in 2004 was $4.7 million on income before taxes of $17.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately 28%. This increase in the effective tax rate reflects a lower percentage of earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions with lower tax rates.

Net Income. Net income was approximately $32.6 million in 2005 and $12.5 million in 2004, for the reasons set forth above.

Year ended December 31, 2004 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2003

Revenues. Revenues increased by $2.1 million, or approximately 1%, to $221.6 million in 2004 from $219.5 million in 2003. The increase was due to increased sales of $19.3 million in the Eastern Hemisphere and $200,000 in the Asia-Pacific area, offset by decreased export sales in the Western Hemisphere of $13.9 million and decreased domestic sales of $3.5 million. The worldwide increase in revenues was due to an overall increase in demand for the Company’s products which occurred at the same time that customer demands in the various regions of the world changed significantly.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales decreased by $4.6 million, or 2.9%, to $153.4 million in 2004 from $158.0 million in 2003. As a percentage of revenues, cost of sales was approximately 69% in 2004 and 72% in 2003. This decrease was primarily due to improvements in manufacturing, engineering and field service efficiencies and changes in product mix.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $3.7 million, or approximately 12.8%, to $32.7 million from $29.0 million in the 2003 period. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of revenues from 13.2% in 2003 to 14.8% in 2004. Increased expenditures in this area were primarily the result of costs of compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (approximately $1.2 million),

the weakening of the U.S. dollar versus the U.K. pound and most European currencies (approximately $700,000), increased outside audit and legal fees (approximately $300,000), and increased selling, general and administrative expenses related to the Company’s new products: liner hangers and control systems (approximately $300,000).

Engineering and Product Development Expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2004, engineering and product development expenses increased by approximately $565,000, or approximately 3.4%, to $17.1 million from $16.5 million during the same period in 2003. This increase primarily reflects increased labor costs related to the development of new products. As a percentage of revenues, engineering and product development expenses increased from 7.5% in 2003 to 7.7% in 2004.

Special Item. The second quarter 2003 results include a $1.4 million Special Item resulting from the settlement of a previously disclosed warranty claim related to the Company’s drilling riser product. As a result of this settlement, all outstanding warranty issues related to this product were resolved.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for 2004 was approximately $1.1 million, compared to $1.6 million for 2003. This change resulted primarily from a reduction in borrowings made under the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit.

Net Income. Net income increased by approximately $3.5 million or 39.3%, from $9.0 million in 2003 to $12.5 million in 2004. In addition to the reasons set forth above, this increase was primarily due to increased income before taxes of $6.1 million in the Eastern Hemisphere offset by decreased income before taxes of $0.9 million in the Western Hemisphere and decreased income before taxes of $0.8 million in the Asia-Pacific region.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary liquidity needs of the Company are (i) to fund capital expenditures to improve and expand facilities and manufacture additional rental running tools and (ii) to fund working capital. Historically, the Company’s principal sources of funds have been cash flows from operations and bank indebtedness. In December 2005, the Company sold 1,500,000 shares of common stock which resulted in net proceeds to the Company, before expenses, of $74,880,000.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $27.0 million and $25.3 million in 2003 and 2004, respectively. Net cash used by operating activities was $16.9 million in 2005. During 2005, net cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from increases in trade receivables and inventories offset by increases in trade accounts payable and accrued expenses, depreciation and amortization and net income. The increases in receivables, inventories and payables were primarily due to the Company’s significant increases in revenues and backlog during the year.

Capital expenditures by the Company were $8.3 million, $17.1 million and $20.6 million in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Capital expenditure increases during 2004 and 2005 were primarily due to expenditures related to the expansion of the Company’s Houston forging facility as well as costs associated with running tools and equipment needed in the development and marketing of the Company’s new liner hanger and subsea controls product lines. Principal payments on long-term debt were $16.4 million, $11.0 million and $24.9 million in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The reduction in long-term debt during 2005 on the Company’s revolving line of credit was due primarily to net cash provided by the sale of 1.5 million shares of common stock in the fourth quarter of 2005.

The following table presents long-term contractual obligations of the Company and the related payments, excluding the effects of interest, due in total and by year as of December 31, 2005:


	Payments due by year
Contractual Obligations	2006		2007		2008		2009		2010		After 2010		Total
	(In Thousands)
Long-term debt maturities	$	734	$	711	$	711	$	711	$	711	$	269	$	3,847
Operating lease obligations		1,666		950		396		143		104		2,142		5,401

Total	$	2,400	$	1,661	$	1,107	$	854	$	815	$	2,411	$	9,248

The Company has a credit facility with Guaranty Bank, FSB providing an unsecured revolving line of credit of up to $65 million. At the option of the Company, borrowing under this facility bears interest at either a rate equal to LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus 1.75% or the Guaranty Bank base rate. The facility calls for quarterly interest payments and terminates on June 1, 2009. The facility also contains certain covenants including maintaining minimum tangible net worth levels, not exceeding specified funded debt amounts and required interest coverage ratios. The Company is in compliance with all loan covenants. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had drawn down $23.9 million under this facility for operating activities and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had no borrowings under this facility.

Dril-Quip (Europe) Limited has a credit agreement with the Bank of Scotland dated March 21, 2001 in the original amount of U.K. Pounds Sterling 4.0 million (approximately U.S. $6.9 million). Borrowing under this facility bears interest at the Bank of Scotland base rate, which was 4.50% at December 31, 2005, plus 1%, and is repayable in 120 equal monthly installments, plus interest. Substantially all of this facility was used to finance capital expenditures in Norway. The outstanding balance of this facility at December 31, 2004 and 2005 was approximately U.S. $4.9 million and U.S. $3.7 million, respectively. The facility is secured by land and buildings in Aberdeen, Scotland and contains no restrictive financial covenants.

The secured term loan Dril-Quip Asia Pacific PTE Ltd. had with the Overseas Union Bank dated August 29, 2001 in the original amount of Singapore Dollars $6.0 million (approximately U.S. $3.7 million) was paid in full on December 30, 2004.

In addition to the above, the Company has issued purchase orders in the ordinary course of business for the purchase of goods and services. These purchase orders are enforceable and legally binding. However, none of the Company’s purchase obligations call for deliveries of goods or services for time periods in excess of one year.

The Company has filed with the SEC a universal shelf registration statement that, subject to the agreement on terms at the time of use and appropriate supplementation, allows the Company to issue, in one or more offerings, up to $100 million of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants or a combination thereof. In December 2005, the Company issued $78 million in common stock (1.5 million shares, resulting in net proceeds to the Company, before expenses, of $74,880,000). At December 31, 2005, the Company had $22 million available under this shelf registration, subject to customary market terms and conditions.

The Company believes that cash generated from operations plus cash on hand and its existing line of credit will be sufficient to fund operations, working capital needs and anticipated capital expenditure requirements in 2006. However, any significant future declines in hydrocarbon prices below historical levels could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity. Should market conditions result in unexpected cash requirements, the Company believes that additional borrowing from commercial lending institutions would be readily available and more than adequate to meet such requirements.

Backlog

Backlog consists of firm customer orders for which a purchase order has been received, satisfactory credit or financing arrangements exist and delivery is scheduled. The Company’s revenues for a specific period have not been directly related to its backlog as stated at a particular point in time. The Company’s backlog was approximately $248 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of $121 million or 95% over the backlog of $127 million at December 31,

2004. This increase in backlog is primarily due to improving worldwide market conditions resulting in increased demand for the Company’s products. The Company expects to fill approximately 80% of the December 31, 2005 backlog by December 31, 2006. The remaining backlog at December 31, 2005 consists of longer-term projects which are being designed and manufactured to customer specifications requiring longer lead times. The Company can give no assurance that backlog will remain at current levels. Sales of the Company’s products are affected by prices for oil and natural gas, which fluctuated significantly during 2004 and 2005. Significant future declines in oil and natural gas prices could reduce new customer orders, which would cause the Company’s backlog to decline. All of the Company’s projects currently included in its backlog are subject to change and/or termination at the option of the customer. In the case of a change or termination, the customer is required to pay the Company for work performed and other costs necessarily incurred as a result of the change or termination. In the past, terminations and cancellations have been immaterial to the Company’s overall operating results.

Geographic Segments

The Company’s operations are organized into three geographic segments—Western Hemisphere (including North and South America; headquartered in Houston, Texas), Eastern Hemisphere (including Europe and Africa; headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland) and Asia-Pacific (including the Pacific Rim, Southeast Asia, Australia, India and the Middle East; headquartered in Singapore). Each of these segments sells similar products and services and the Company has major manufacturing facilities in all three of its headquarter locations. The Company previously reported a single industry segment and disclosed certain geographic financial information. All periods presented herein have been revised to present geographic segment information. See note 11 to the consolidated financial statements.

Revenues for each of these segments are dependent upon the ultimate sale of products and services to the Company’s customers. For information on revenues by geographic segment, see note 11 to the consolidated financial statements. Revenues of the Western Hemisphere are also influenced by its sale of products to the Eastern Hemisphere and Asia-Pacific segments. Accordingly, the operating incomes of each area are closely tied to third-party sales, and the operating income of the Western Hemisphere is also dependent upon its level of intercompany sales.

Currency Risk

Through its subsidiaries, the Company conducts a portion of business in currencies other than the United States dollar, principally the British pound sterling and, to a lesser extent the Brazilian real. The Company generally attempts to minimize its currency exchange risk by seeking international contracts payable in local currency in amounts equal to the Company’s estimated operating costs payable in local currency and in U.S. dollars for the balance of the contract. Because of this strategy, the Company has not experienced significant transaction gains or losses associated with changes in currency exchange rates and does not anticipate such exposure to be material in the future. In 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Company had, net of income taxes, a gain of approximately $365,000, $636,000, and a loss of $527,000, respectively. The gains in 2003 and 2004 and the loss in 2005 were the result of currency fluctuations related to payables and trade receivables. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to protect itself against such fluctuations in the future. Historically, the Company has not conducted business in countries that limit repatriation of earnings. However, as the Company expands its international operations, it may begin operating in countries that have such limitations. Further, there can be no assurance that the countries in which the Company currently operates will not adopt policies limiting repatriation of earnings in the future. The Company also has significant investments in countries other than the United States, principally its manufacturing operations in Aberdeen, Scotland and, to a lesser extent, Singapore, Brazil and Norway. The functional currency of these foreign operations is the local currency and, accordingly, financial statement assets and liabilities are translated at current exchange rates. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and have no current effect on earnings or cash flow.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. The Company believes the following accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. For the majority of the Company’s sales, revenue is recorded at the time the manufacturing process is complete and the products have been shipped to the consumer. For these sales, ownership is transferred to the customer at the time of shipment. Service revenues are recorded at the time the service is rendered. Certain revenues are derived from long-term contracts, which generally require more than one year to fulfill. Revenues and cost of sales and related profits from long-term contracts are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs. During 2005, four projects representing approximately 14% of the Company’s revenue were accounted for using percentage of completion accounting. Losses on long-term contracts are recognized when they become known. Contracts for long-term projects usually contain provisions for customer progress payments. Payments and billings in excess of revenues recognized are deferred and are included as a customer prepayment liability. Allowances on accounts receivable are provided primarily on the specific-identification method.

Inventories. Inventory costs are determined principally by the use of the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventory is valued principally using standard costs that are calculated based upon direct costs incurred and overhead allocations. Periodically, obsolescence reviews are performed on slow-moving inventories and reserves are established based on current assessments about future demands and market conditions. The inventory values have been reduced by a reserve for excess and obsolete inventories. Inventory reserves of $9.9 million and $15.7 million were recorded as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. If market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves may be required.

Contingent liabilities. We establish reserves for estimated loss contingencies when we believe a loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Revisions to contingent liabilities are reflected in income in the period in which different facts or information become known or circumstances change that affect our previous assumptions with respect to the likelihood or amount of loss. Reserves for contingent liabilities are based upon our assumptions and estimates regarding the probable outcome of the matter. Should the outcome differ from our assumptions and estimates, revisions to the estimated reserves for contingent liabilities would be required.

The Company has no significant derivative instruments and no off-balance sheet hedging or financing arrangements or contracts or operations that rely upon credit or similar ratings.

New Accounting Standards

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, Inventory Costs (SFAS 151). SFAS 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company believes that there will be no material effect on its financial statements upon adoption of this statement.

employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. Under SFAS No. 123R, SBP awards result in a cost that will be measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will be reflected as compensation expense in the financial statements. In addition, this statement will apply to unvested options granted prior to the effective date. This new standard is effective in interim and annual reporting periods that begin after December 15, 2005. The Company currently estimates that it will recognize approximately $0.05 per diluted share of equity- and option-based compensation expense for 2006, assuming the use of the fair value method and the use of a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is currently exposed to certain market risks related to interest rate changes and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company does not engage in any material hedging transactions, forward contracts or currency trading which could be subject to market risks inherent to such transactions.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

Through its subsidiaries, the Company conducts a portion of its business in currencies other than the United States dollar, principally the British pound sterling and, to a lesser extent, the Brazilian real. The Company has not experienced significant transaction gains or losses associated with changes in currency exchange rates and does not anticipate such exposure to be material in the future. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to protect itself against currency fluctuations in the future. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Currency Risk” in Item 7 of this report.

The Company uses a sensitivity analysis model to measure the impact on revenue and net income of a 10% adverse movement of foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar over the previous year. Based upon this model, a 10% decrease would result in a decrease in revenues of approximately $10.2 million and a decrease in net income of approximately $1.2 million over this period. There can be no assurance that the exchange rate decrease projected above will materialize as fluctuations in exchange rates are beyond the Company’s control.

Interest Rate Risk

As described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources,” the Company has two credit facilities or loans that require the Company to pay interest at a floating rate. These floating-rate obligations expose the Company to the risk of increased interest expense in the event of increases in the short-term interest rates. Based upon the December 31, 2005 balance of approximately $3.8 million related to these floating rate obligations, each 1.0% rise in interest rates would result in additional annual interest expense to the Company of approximately $38,000, or $9,500 per quarter.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

•

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management has designed its internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management’s assessment included review and testing of both the design effectiveness and operating effectiveness of controls over all relevant assertions related to all significant accounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officers and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2005.

BDO Seidman, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, audited management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and issued their attestation report on management’s assessment set forth on page 31.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Dril-Quip, Inc.:

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, that Dril-Quip, Inc. (the “Company”) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Dril-Quip, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management’s assessment that Dril-Quip, Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO criteria. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended and our report dated March 9, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Organization

Dril-Quip, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Dril-Quip”) designs, manufactures, sells and services highly engineered offshore drilling and production equipment that is well suited for use in deepwater, harsh environment and severe service applications. The Company’s principal products consist of subsea and surface wellheads, subsea and surface production trees, mudline hanger systems, specialty connectors and associated pipe, drilling and production riser systems, wellhead connectors and diverters. Dril-Quip’s products are used by major integrated, large independent and foreign national oil and gas companies in offshore areas throughout the world. Dril-Quip also provides installation and reconditioning services and rents running tools for use in connection with the installation and retrieval of its products.

The Company’s operations are organized into three geographic segments—Western Hemisphere (including North and South America; headquartered in Houston, Texas), Eastern Hemisphere (including Europe and Africa; headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland) and Asia-Pacific (including the Pacific Rim, Southeast Asia, Australia, India and the Middle East; headquartered in Singapore). Each of these segments sells similar products and services and the Company has major manufacturing facilities in all three of its headquarter locations. See note 11 to the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s major subsidiaries are Dril-Quip (Europe) Limited (DQE), located in Aberdeen with branches in Denmark, Norway and Holland; Dril-Quip Asia Pacific PTE Ltd. (DQAP), located in Singapore; and Dril-Quip do Brasil LTDA, located in Macae, Brazil. Dril-Quip (Nigeria) Ltd. is located in Port Harcourt, Nigeria and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of DQE.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of the Company’s more significant estimates are those affected by critical accounting policies for revenue recognition, inventories and contingent liabilities.

Cash and cash equivalents

Short-term investments that have a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents.

Trade Receivables

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts on trade receivables equal to amounts estimated to be uncollectible. This estimate is based upon historical collection experience combined with a specific review of each customer’s outstanding trade receivable balance. Management believes that the allowance for doubtful accounts is

DRIL-QUIP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

adequate, however, actual write-offs may exceed the recorded allowance. The following is a summary of activity relating to the allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005:


	In Thousands
Balance at December 31, 2002	$	25
Charges to costs and expenses		—

Balance at December 2003		25

Balance at December 31, 2004		2,735
Charges to costs and expenses		890
Recoveries		(1,752	)

Balance at December 31, 2005	$	1,873

Inventories

Inventory costs are determined principally by the use of the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventory is valued principally using standard costs, which approximate FIFO, that are calculated based upon direct costs incurred and overhead allocations. Periodically, obsolescence reviews are performed on slow moving inventories and reserves are established based upon current assessments about future demands and market conditions. The inventory values have been reduced by a reserve for excess and obsolete inventories. Inventory reserves of $9.9 million and $15.7 million were recorded as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. If market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves may be required.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost, with depreciation provided on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset, an impairment charge is recognized. No impairment of long-lived assets existed at December 31, 2004 or 2005.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Current income taxes are provided on income reported for financial statement purposes, adjusted for transactions that do not enter into the computation of income taxes payable in the same year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized considering future taxable income.

Revenue Recognition

The Company delivers most of its products on an as-needed basis by its customers and records revenues as the products are shipped. Service revenues are recorded at the time the service is rendered. Allowances for doubtful

DRIL-QUIP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

accounts are determined generally on a case by case basis and historically have been insignificant. Certain revenues are derived from long-term contracts which generally require more than one year to fulfill. Revenues and profits on long-term contracts are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs. Price and cost estimates are reviewed periodically as the work progresses, and adjustments proportionate to the percentage of completion are reflected in the period when such estimates are revised. Losses, if any, on contracts are recognized when they become known. Contracts for long-term projects contain provisions for customer progress payments. Payments in excess of revenues recognized are included as a customer prepayment liability. At December 31, 2004 and 2005, trade receivables included $6,020,000 and $7,585,000 respectively, in unbilled revenue.

Foreign Currency

The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates except for revenues and expenses, which are translated at average rates during each reporting period. Translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and have no current effect on earnings or cash flows. These adjustments amounted to gains of $5,386,000, $4,091,000 and a loss of $7,170,000 in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Foreign currency exchange transactions are recorded using the exchange rate at the date of the settlement. Exchange gains (losses) were approximately $365,000 in 2003, $636,000 in 2004, and ($527,000) in 2005, net of income taxes. These amounts are included in selling, general, and administrative costs in the consolidated statements of income.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting For Stock Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”). Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for stock options granted under the Company’s incentive plan.

Under SFAS No. 123, pro forma information is required to reflect the estimated effect on net income and earnings per share as if the Company had accounted for the stock options using the fair value method. The fair value was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:


	2003			2004	2005
Risk free interest rate		3.11	%	No grants	No grants
Volatility of the stock price		620
Expected life of options (in years)		5
Expected dividend		0.0	%
Calculated fair value per share	$	8.22

DRIL-QUIP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the above plan consistent with the method available under SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income and earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts listed below. There were no options granted in 2004 and 2005.

Diluted	$	0.39		$	0.59		$	1.71

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, and debt instruments. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their respective fair values as they are either short-term in nature or carry variable interest rates that approximate market rates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. The Company grants credit to its customers, which operate primarily in the oil and gas industry. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential losses, and such losses have historically been within management’s expectations.

Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130 establishes the rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components. SFAS No. 130 requires the Company to include unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency translation adjustments in comprehensive income. Generally, gains are attributed to a weakening U.S. dollar and losses are the result of a strengthening U.S. dollar.

Interest Capitalization

The Company capitalizes interest on significant construction projects for which interest costs are being incurred. These projects principally consist of construction or expansion of the Company’s facilities. No interest was capitalized in 2003, 2004 or 2005.

DRIL-QUIP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed considering the dilutive effect of stock options using the treasury stock method.

New Accounting Standards

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 123R, Share-Based Payments. This statement is a revision of SFAS Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. SFAS No. 123R addresses all forms of share based payment (“SBP”) awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. Under SFAS No. 123R, SBP awards result in a cost that will be measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will be reflected as compensation expense in the financial statements. In addition, this statement will apply to unvested options granted prior to the effective date. This new standard is effective in interim and annual reporting periods that begin after December 15, 2005. The Company currently estimates that it will recognize approximately $0.05 per diluted share of equity- and option-based compensation expense for 2006, assuming the use of the fair value method and the use of a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The UK deferred tax valuation allowance was $176,000 and $261,000 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

Undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are considered to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes has been provided thereon. Upon distribution of those earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company may be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred U.S. income tax liability is not practicable.

The Company’s income tax returns are subject to review and examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and in August 2004, the (“IRS”) scheduled an examination of the 2002 Tax Return. The audit is nearing completion and it is anticipated that it will be completed in the first half of 2006. There have been no issues identified, nor do we expect any issues from the examination, that will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act creates a temporary incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad by providing, in some cases, an 85 percent dividends received deduction for dividends paid by certain non-U.S. subsidiaries of the U.S. corporation (“controlled foreign corporations”) to the U.S. corporation. Based on the evaluation of the deduction by the Company, it was determined that it would not be beneficial to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad.

The Act further provides for a tax deduction for qualified production activities. Under the guidance of FASB Staff Position No 109-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, the deduction will be treated as a “special deduction” as described in SFAS 109 and not as a reduction in the tax rate. As such, the special deduction has no effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities existing on the date of enactment. The Company’s production activities qualify for the tax deduction and the Company’s 2005 tax provision includes an estimated deduction of approximately $1.1 million.

The Company paid $3,954,000, $2,257,000 and $11,438,000 in income taxes in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Total	$	6,967	$	14,662

8. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a defined-contribution 401(k) plan covering domestic employees and a defined-contribution pension plan covering certain foreign employees. The Company generally makes contributions to the plans equal to each participant’s eligible contributions for the plan year up to a specified percentage of the participant’s annual compensation. The Company’s contribution expense was $902,000, $958,000 and $1,147,000 in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases certain office, shop and warehouse facilities, automobiles, and equipment. The Company expenses all lease payments when incurred. Total lease expense incurred was $2,004,000, $2,062,000 and $2,340,000 in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Annual minimum lease commitments at December 31, 2005 are as follows: 2006—$1,666,000; 2007—$950,000; 2008—$396,000; 2009—$143,000; 2010—$104,000; and thereafter—$2,142,000.

The Company operates its business and markets its products and services in most of the significant oil and gas producing areas in the world and is, therefore, subject to the risk customarily attendant to international operations and dependency on the condition of the oil and gas industry. Additionally, products of the Company are used in potentially hazardous drilling, completion, and production applications that can cause personal injury, product liability, and environmental claims. Although exposure to such risk has not resulted in any significant problems in the past, there can be no assurance that future developments will not adversely impact the Company.

The Company is involved in a number of legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially affect the consolidated financial statements of the Company, although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of this litigation.

During the fourth quarter of 2002 the Company established a $1.35 million reserve for warranty claims related to the Company’s drilling riser product. This reserve was increased by $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 to reflect the cost of settling these warranty claims. As a result of this settlement, all outstanding warranty issues related to this product have been resolved.

10. Stockholders’ Equity

Under a Stockholder Rights Plan adopted by the Board of Directors in 1997, each share of common stock includes one Right to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one one-hundredth of a share (a “Fractional Share”) of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at a specified purchase price per Fractional Share, subject to

adjustment in certain events. The Rights will cause substantial dilution to any person or group that attempts to acquire the Company without the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Eliminations of operating profits are related to intercompany inventory transfers that are deferred until shipment is made to third party customers.

In 2003 and in 2005, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues. In 2004, one customer accounted for approximately 15% of revenues.

12. Employee Stock Option Plan and Awards

On September 19, 1997, the Company adopted the Dril-Quip, Inc. 1997 Incentive Plan (as amended, the “1997 Plan”) and the Company reserved 1,700,000 shares of Common Stock for use in connection with the 1997 Plan. During 2001, the Company reserved an additional 700,000 shares for use in connection with the 1997 Plan. Persons eligible for awards under the 1997 Plan are employees holding positions of responsibility with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Options granted under the 1997 Plan have a term of ten years and become exercisable in cumulative annual increments of one-fourth of the total number of shares of Common Stock subject thereto, beginning on the first anniversary of the date of the grant. On May 13, 2004, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2004 Incentive Plan of Dril-Quip, Inc. (the “2004 Plan”), which reserved up to 1,378,147 shares of Common Stock to be used in connection with the 2004 Plan. No options have been granted under the 2004 Plan and no additional options will be awarded under the 1997 Plan. Option activity for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 were as follows:
