Description of Operations
Our reportable segments are strategic business units that offer various products and services. Each business segment requires different technology and marketing strategies, and is managed independently. All three segments market products domestically and internationally.
Chemicals and Logistics
We offer a full spectrum of oilfield specialty chemicals used for drilling, cementing, stimulation, and production. Our specialty chemical division provides chemical technology solutions to maximize recovery from both new and mature fields. Our development of specialty chemicals with enhanced performance characteristics to withstand a wide range of downhole pressures, temperatures and other well-specific conditions is key to the success of this business segment. We operate two laboratories, a technical services laboratory and a research and development laboratory that focus on design, development and testing of new chemical formulations and enhancement of existing products, often in cooperation with our customers. One of these laboratories is a new state-of-the-art chemical research and development facility in the Houston, Texas area.
Our logistics segment designs, project manages and operates automated bulk material handling and loading facilities for oilfield service companies. These bulk facilities handle oilfield products, including sand and other materials for well-fracturing operations, dry cement and additives for oil and gas well cementing, and supplies and materials used in oilfield operations, which we blend to customer specification.
Drilling Products
We are a leading provider of downhole drilling tools used in the oilfield, mining, water-well and industrial drilling sectors. We manufacture, sell, rent and inspect specialized equipment for use in drilling, completion, production and workover activities. Through internal growth and acquisitions, we have increased the size and breadth of our rental tool inventory and geographic scope of operations so that we now conduct tool rental operations throughout the United States and in select international markets. Our rental tools include stabilizers, drill collars, reamers, wipers, jars and mud-motors, while equipment sold includes centralizers and drill bits. We focus our product marketing efforts primarily in the Gulf of Mexico, Mid-Continent and Rocky Mountain regions of the United States, with international sales currently conducted through third party agents.
Artificial Lift
We provide pumping system components, including electric submersible pumps, or ESPs, gas separators, production valves and services. Our products address the needs of coal bed methane and traditional oil and gas production to efficiently move gas, oil and other fluids from the producing horizon to the surface. Several of our artificial lift products employ unique technologies to improve well performance. Our patented Petrovalve product optimizes pumping efficiency in horizontal completions, heavy oil and wells with high gas to liquids ratios. Furthermore, our patented gas separation technology is particularly applicable for coal bed methane production as it efficiently separates gas and water downhole, ensuring solution gas is not lost in water production. The majority of our products are manufactured in China, assembled domestically and distributed globally.
2
Product Demand and Marketing
The demand for our products and services is generally correlated to the level of oil and gas drilling activity, workover activity and gas production levels, both in the United States and internationally. We market our products primarily through direct sales to our customers through Company managers and sales employees. We have established customer relationships which provide for repeat sales. The majority of our marketing is currently conducted within the United States. Internationally, we operate primarily through agents in Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Middle East, Asia and Russia.
Customers
The customers for our products and services include the major integrated oil and natural gas companies, independent oil and natural gas companies, pressure pumping service companies and state-owned national oil companies. Although we are not dependent on one or a few major customers, five customers accounted for approximately 34% of consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007, 30% of consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 32% of consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005. The majority of these sales were in the Chemicals and Logistics segment and collectively accounted for approximately 52% of revenue for this segment for the year ended December 31, 2007, 47% of revenue for this segment for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 49% of revenue for this segment for the year ended December 31, 2005. One customer of the five accounted for approximately 12% of consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007. The same customer accounted for approximately 21% of revenue of our Chemicals and Logistics segment for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Research and Development
We are engaged in research and development activities directed primarily toward the improvement of existing products and services, the design of specialized products to meet customer needs and the development of new products, processes and services. We incurred $0.8 million, $0.7 million and $0.6 million in research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Intellectual Property
We have followed a policy of seeking patent protection both within and outside the United States for products and methods that appear to have commercial significance and qualify for patent protection. The decision to seek patent protection considers whether such protection can be obtained on a cost-effective basis and is likely to be effective in protecting our commercial interests. We believe our patents and trademarks, together with our trade secrets and proprietary design, manufacturing and operational expertise, are reasonably adequate to protect our intellectual property and provide for the continued operation of our business. We maintain patents on our production valve design and casing centralizer design, and trade secrets and pending patents on certain specialty chemicals.
Competition
Our ability to compete in the oilfield services market is dependent on our ability to differentiate our products and services, provide superior quality and service, and maintain a competitive cost structure. Activity levels in our three segments are driven primarily by current and expected commodity prices, drilling rig count, oil and gas production levels, and customer capital spending allocated for drilling and production. The regions in which we operate are highly competitive. The competitive environment has intensified as recent mergers among oil and gas companies have reduced the number of available customers. Many other oil and gas service companies are larger than we are and have greater resources than we have. These competitors are better able to withstand industry downturns, compete on the basis of price and acquire new equipment and technologies, all of which could affect our revenue and profitability. These competitors compete with us both for customers and for acquisitions of other businesses. This competition may cause our business to suffer. We believe that competition for contracts will continue to be intense in the foreseeable future.
3
Raw Materials
The Chemical and Logistics segments operations purchase their principal raw material and chemical feed stocks on the open market. Collection and transportation of these raw materials to the Companys facilities can be adversely affected by extreme weather conditions. Prices for the chemical feed stocks also vary in relation to the general business cycle and global demand. The Drilling Products and Artificial Lift segments purchase their principal raw material and steel on the open market. Except for a few chemical additives, the raw materials are available in most cases from several suppliers at market prices. We use multiple suppliers, both domestically and internationally, for our key raw materials purchases.
Government Regulations
We are subject to federal, state and local environmental and occupational safety and health laws and regulations in the United States and other countries in which we do business. We strive to comply fully with these requirements and are not aware of any material instances of noncompliance. Many of the products within our Chemicals and Logistics segment are considered hazardous or flammable. If a leak or spill occurs in connection with our operations, we could incur material costs, net of insurance, to remediate any resulting contamination.
Employees
As of March 10, 2008, we employed 460 employees, of which 448 were full-time and 12 were part-time. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors. |
This document and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), and other materials released to the public contain forward-looking statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may discuss our prospects, expected revenue, expenses and profits, strategies for our operations and other subjects, including conditions in the oilfield service and oil and natural gas industries and in the United States and international economy in general.
Our forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable but that may not prove to be accurate. All of our forward-looking information is, therefore, subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expected. Although it is not possible to identify all factors, these risks and uncertainties include the risk factors discussed below.
Risks Related to Our Business
We intend to pursue strategic acquisitions, which could have an adverse impact on our business.
Our business strategy includes growing our business through strategic acquisitions of complementary businesses. Acquisitions that we may make in the future may entail a number of risks that could adversely affect our business and results of operations. The process of negotiating potential acquisitions or integrating newly acquired businesses into our business could divert our managements attention from other business concerns and could be expensive and time consuming. Acquisitions could expose our business to unforeseen liabilities or risks associated with entering new markets or businesses. Consequently, we might not be successful in integrating our acquisitions into our existing operations, which may result in unforeseen operational difficulties or diminished financial performance or require a disproportionate amount of our managements attention and resources. Even if we are successful in integrating our acquisitions into our existing operations, we may not derive the benefits, such as operational or administrative synergies, that we expect from such acquisitions, which may result in the commitment of capital resources without the anticipated returns on such capital. In addition, we may not be able to continue to identify attractive acquisition opportunities or successfully acquire identified targets. Competition for acquisition opportunities may escalate, increasing our cost of making further acquisitions or causing us to
4
refrain from making additional acquisitions. We also must meet certain financial covenants in order to borrow money under our senior credit facility to fund future acquisitions and to borrow for other purposes which, if not met, could prevent us from making future acquisitions.
Difficulties in integrating acquired businesses may result in reduced revenues and income.
We may not be able to successfully integrate the businesses of our operating subsidiaries or any business we may acquire in the future. The integration of the businesses are complex and time consuming, place a significant strain on management and our information systems, and this strain could disrupt our businesses. Furthermore, if our combined businesses continue to grow rapidly, we may be required to replace our current information and accounting systems with systems designed for companies that are larger than ours. We may be adversely impacted by unknown liabilities of acquired businesses. We may encounter substantial difficulties, costs and delays involved in integrating common accounting, information and communication systems, operating procedures, internal controls and human resources practices, including incompatibility of business cultures and the loss of key employees and customers. These difficulties may reduce our ability to gain customers or retain existing customers, and may increase operating expenses, resulting in reduced revenues and income and a failure to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions.
If we do not manage the potential difficulties associated with expansion successfully, our operating results could be adversely affected.
We have grown over the last several years through internal growth and strategic acquisitions of other businesses and assets. We believe our future success depends in part on our ability to manage the growth we have experienced. The following factors could present difficulties to our business going forward:
| lack of sufficient experienced management personnel; |
| increased administrative burdens; and |
| increased logistical problems common to large, expansive operations. |
If we do not manage these potential difficulties successfully, our operating results could be adversely affected. In addition, we may have difficulties managing the increased costs associated with our growth, which could adversely affect our operating margins.
Our business depends primarily on domestic spending by the oil and gas industry, and this spending and our business may be adversely affected by industry conditions that are beyond our control.
We depend primarily on our customers willingness to make operating and capital expenditures to explore for, develop and produce oil and gas in the United States. Customers expectations for lower market prices for oil and gas may curtail spending, thereby reducing demand for our products and services. Industry conditions in the United States are influenced by numerous factors over which we have no control, such as the supply of and demand for oil and gas, domestic and international economic conditions, political instability in oil and gas producing countries and merger and divestiture activity among oil and gas producers. The volatility of the oil and gas industry and the consequent effect on exploration and production activity could adversely affect the level of drilling and production activity by some of our customers. This reduction may cause a decline in the demand for, or adversely affect the price of, our products and services. Reduced discovery rates of new oil and gas reserves in our market areas could also have a negative long-term impact on our business, even in an environment of stronger oil and gas prices, to the extent existing production is not replaced or the number of drilling and producing wells declines because of substantial depletion of existing domestic reserves or the availability of cheaper reserves outside the United States. In addition, domestic demand for oil and gas may be uniquely affected by public attitudes regarding drilling in environmentally sensitive areas, vehicle emissions and other environmental standards, alternative fuels and taxation of oil and gas and excess profits of oil and gas companies, and the potential changes in governmental regulation and policy that may result from such public attitudes.
5
Our future success and profitability may be adversely affected if we or our suppliers fail to develop and introduce new and innovative products and services that appeal to our customers.
The oil and gas drilling industry is characterized by continual technological developments that have resulted in, and likely will continue to result in, substantial improvements in the scope and quality of oilfield chemicals, drilling and artificial lift products and services and product function and performance. As a result, our future success depends, in part, upon our and our suppliers continued ability to develop and introduce new and innovative products and services beyond our microemulsion surfactant line to address the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers and anticipate and respond to technological and industry advances in the oil and gas drilling industry in a timely manner. Specifically, the patent for our line of biodegradable non-toxic chemicals is still pending, may be subject to reverse engineering and requires specific feedstocks to produce, which may not be available. If we or our suppliers fail to successfully develop and introduce new and innovative products and services that appeal to our customers, or if new market entrants or our competitors offer such products and services, our revenue and profitability may suffer.
Our senior credit facility contains certain covenants that could limit our flexibility and prevent us from taking certain actions, which could adversely affect our ability to execute our business strategy.
Our senior credit facility includes a number of significant restrictive covenants. These covenants could adversely affect us by limiting our ability to plan for or react to market conditions, meet our capital needs and execute our business strategy. The senior credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability, without the consent of the lender, to:
| incur certain types and amounts of additional debt; |
| consolidate, merge or sell our assets or materially change the nature of our business; |
| pay dividends on capital stock and make restricted payments; |
| make voluntary prepayments, or materially amend the terms, of subordinated debt; |
| enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; |
| make certain investments; |
| make certain capital expenditures; and |
| incur certain liens. |
These covenants may restrict our operating and financial flexibility and limit our ability to respond to changes in our business or competitive activities. Our senior credit facility also requires us to maintain certain financial ratios and satisfy certain financial conditions, several of which may require us to reduce our debt or take some other action in order to comply with the covenants. If we fail to comply with these covenants, we could be in default. In the event of a default, our lender could elect to declare all the amounts borrowed, together with accrued and unpaid interest, to be due and payable. In addition, the lender could elect to terminate its commitment to us, and we or one or more of our subsidiaries could be forced into liquidation or bankruptcy. Any of the foregoing consequences could restrict our ability to execute our business strategy.
We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our debt service obligations and other liquidity needs.
Due to an extensive capital expenditure program in 2006, we exceeded the indebtedness covenant, fixed charge coverage ratio and capital expenditures limit set forth in our senior credit facility. In 2006, we obtained waivers of those covenants from our principal lender, increased the borrowing limits and redefined the covenant limits based on an expanded capital expenditures program. On February 4, 2008, we amended the terms of our senior credit facility to permit us to issue $150 million in convertible senior notes and incur additional capital
6
expenditures and to include new financial covenants requiring us to maintain a minimum net worth and not to exceed a maximum senior leverage ratio. These amendments also increased the interest rates under the facility, required us to reduce the amount of our term loan borrowings to $40.0 million, increased our quarterly principal payments pursuant to our term loan and will require us to make mandatory prepayments of our term loan facility in specified circumstances, including if the appraised value of our fixed assets falls below specified levels. Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to make scheduled payments on these debt obligations and other future debt obligations we may incur, will depend on our future financial performance, which will be affected by a range of economic, competitive, regulatory and industry factors, many of which are beyond our control. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows or otherwise obtain the funds required to make principal and interest payments on our indebtedness, we may have to undertake alternative financing plans, such as refinancing or restructuring our debt, selling assets, reducing or delaying capital investments or seeking to raise additional capital through the issuance of debt securities or other securities. We cannot assure you that any refinancing, sale of assets or issuance of securities would be made on terms that are acceptable or otherwise meet our debt obligations. Our inability to generate sufficient cash flows to satisfy such obligations, or to refinance our obligations on commercially reasonable terms, would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our principal source of liquidity, other than cash flows from operations, is a revolving line of credit under our amended senior credit facility. While we believe that our cash flows from operations and amounts available under our revolving line of credit will be sufficient to meet our obligations in the near term, our needs for cash may exceed the levels generated from operations and available to us under our revolving line of credit due to factors which are beyond our control.
Failure to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting could have an adverse effect on our operations and the trading price of our common stock.
As part of our growth strategy, we have recently completed several acquisitions of privately-held businesses, and in the future, we may make additional strategic acquisitions of privately-held businesses. Prior to becoming part of our consolidated company, these acquired businesses have not been required to implement or maintain the disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting that federal law requires of publicly-held companies such as ours. Similarly, it is likely that our future acquired businesses will not have been required to maintain such disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls prior to their acquisition. Likewise, upon the completion of any future acquisition, we will be required to integrate the acquired business into our consolidated companys system of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, but we cannot assure you as to how long the integration process may take for any business that we may acquire. Furthermore, during the integration process, we may not be able to fully implement our consolidated disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting.
Likewise, during the course of our integration of any acquired business, we may identify needed improvements to our or such acquired business internal controls and may be required to design enhanced processes and controls in order to make such improvements. This could result in significant delays and costs to us and could require us to divert substantial resources, including management time, from other activities.
If we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our disclosure controls and procedures and/or our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to conclude that we have effective disclosure controls and procedures and/or effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. If:
| we are not successful in improving our financial reporting process, our disclosure controls and procedures and/or our internal controls over financial reporting; |
| we identify deficiencies and/or one or more material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting; or |
7
| we are not successful in integrating acquired businesses into our consolidated companys system of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, |
then our independent registered public accounting firm may be unable to attest that our internal control over financial reporting is fairly stated, or on the effectiveness of, our internal controls.
If it is determined that our disclosure controls and procedures and/or our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective and/or we fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act on a timely basis, we may not be able to provide reliable financial and other reports, which, in turn, could harm our business and operating results, cause investors to lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock and/or adversely affect our ability to timely file our periodic reports with the SEC.
Our ability to grow and compete in the future will be adversely affected if adequate capital is not available.
The ability of our business to grow and compete depends on the availability of adequate capital, which in turn depends in large part on our cash flow from operations and the availability of equity and debt financing. We cannot assure you that our cash flow from operations will be sufficient or that we will be able to obtain equity or debt financing on acceptable terms or at all to implement our growth strategy. For example, our senior credit facility restricts our ability to incur additional indebtedness and requires us to meet certain financial covenants in order to borrow money, including borrowings to fund future acquisitions, a key component of our growth strategy. As a result, we cannot assure you that adequate capital will be available to finance our current growth plans, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could harm our business.
If we lose the services of key members of our management, we may not be able to manage our operations and implement our growth strategy effectively.
We will depend on the continued service of Jerry D. Dumas, age 72, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who possesses significant expertise and knowledge of our business and industry. We do not have an employment agreement with Mr. Dumas, nor do we carry key man life insurance on him. Any loss or interruption of the services of Mr. Dumas or other key members of our management could significantly reduce our ability to manage our operations effectively and implement our growth strategy, and we cannot assure you that we would be able to find appropriate replacements should the need arise.
Our current insurance policies may not be adequate to protect our business from all potential risks.
Our operations are subject to hazards inherent in the oil and gas industry, such as, but not limited to, accidents, blowouts, explosions, fires, oil and chemical spills and other hazards. These conditions can cause personal injury or loss of life, damage to property, equipment and the environment, and suspension of oil and gas operations of our customers. Litigation arising from a catastrophic occurrence at a location where our equipment, products or services are being used may result in our being named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting large claims. We maintain insurance coverage that we believe to be customary in the industry against these hazards. However, we do not have insurance against all foreseeable risks, either because insurance is not available or because of the high premium costs. In addition, we may not be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates we consider reasonable. As a result, losses and liabilities arising from uninsured or underinsured events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
8
We are subject to complex foreign, federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, which expose us to costs and liabilities that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our operations are subject to foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to, among other things, the protection of natural resources and the environment, health and safety, waste management and transportation of waste and other materials. Our operations, including our chemicals and logistics segment, which involves chemical manufacturing, packaging, handling and delivery operations, pose risks of environmental liability that could result in fines and penalties, expenditures for remediation, and liability for property damage and personal injuries. In order to conduct our operations in compliance with these laws and regulations, we must obtain and maintain permits, approvals and certificates from various foreign, federal, state and local governmental authorities. Sanctions for noncompliance with such laws and regulations may include assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, revocation of permits and issuance of corrective action orders. We may incur substantial costs in order to maintain compliance with these existing laws and regulations. Laws protecting the environment generally have become more stringent over time and are expected to continue to do so, which could lead to material increases in costs for future environmental compliance and remediation. In addition, our costs of compliance may increase if existing laws and regulations are amended or reinterpreted. Such amendments or reinterpretations of existing laws or regulations or the adoption of new laws or regulations could curtail exploratory or developmental drilling for and production of oil and gas which, in turn, could limit demand for our products and services. Some environmental laws and regulations may also impose joint and strict liability, which means that in some situations we could be exposed to liability as a result of our conduct that was lawful at the time it occurred or conduct of, or conditions caused by, prior operators or other third parties. Clean-up costs and other damages arising as a result of such laws and regulations could be substantial and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property rights or are found to infringe intellectual property rights of others, our business is likely to be adversely affected.
We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, non-disclosure agreements and other security measures to establish and protect our intellectual property rights. Although we believe that those measures are reasonably adequate to protect our intellectual property and provide for the continued operation of our business, there can be no assurance that the measures we have taken or may take in the future will prevent misappropriation of our proprietary information or provide us with a competitive advantage, or that others will not independently develop similar products or services, design around our proprietary or patented technology or duplicate our products or services. Moreover, there can be no assurance that these protections will be available in all cases or will be adequate to prevent our competitors from copying, reverse engineering or otherwise obtaining and using our technology, proprietary rights or products. We have not sought foreign protection corresponding to all of our US intellectual property rights. Consequently, we may not be able to enforce all of our intellectual property rights outside of the United States. Furthermore, the laws of certain countries in which our products are manufactured or marketed may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Third parties may seek to challenge, invalidate or circumvent our patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets. In each case, our ability to compete could be significantly impaired.
In addition, some of our products are not protected by issued patents. Specifically, the patent for our line of green chemicals, which was filed in 2003, is still pending and has been the subject of several amendments and preliminary rejections during the course of its examination. Some of these rejections have been based on prior patents owned by third parties that were cited by the patent examiner as describing similar technology in certain respects. This patent application, as well as all of our other patent applications, may not result in an issued patent or may result in a patent that does not provide us with a competitive advantage. Furthermore, the issuance of a patent does not guarantee that it is valid or enforceable, so even if we obtain patents, they may not be valid or enforceable against third parties. The issuance of a patent does not guarantee that we have the right to practice the patented invention. Third parties may have blocking patents that could be used to prevent us from marketing our own patented product and practicing our own patented technology.
9
We have from time to time received, and may in the future receive, communications alleging possible infringement of patents and other intellectual property rights of others. Furthermore, we have in the past, and may in the future, become involved in costly litigation or proceedings brought against us regarding patents or other intellectual property rights. If any such claims are asserted against us, we may seek to obtain a license under the third partys intellectual property rights. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain all of the necessary licenses on satisfactory terms, if at all. In the event that we cannot obtain a license, these parties may file lawsuits against us seeking damages (potentially including treble damages) or an injunction against the sale of our products that incorporate allegedly infringed intellectual property or against the operation of our business as presently conducted, which could result in our having to stop the sale of some of our products, increase the costs of selling some of our products, or cause damage to our reputation. The award of damages, including material royalty payments, or the entry of an injunction against the manufacture and sale of some or all of our products, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and ability to compete.
We and our customers are subject to risks associated with doing business outside of the United States which may expose us to political, foreign exchange and other uncertainties.
During the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, approximately 5%, 7% and 16%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue was derived from the sale of products for use outside of the United States. Accordingly, we and our customers are subject to certain risks inherent in doing business outside of the United States, including governmental instability, war and other international conflicts, civil and labor disturbances, requirements of local ownership, partial or total expropriation or nationalization, currency devaluation, foreign exchange control and foreign laws and policies, each of which may limit the movement of assets or funds or result in the deprivation of contract rights or the taking of property without fair compensation. Collections and recovery of rental tools from international customers and agents may also prove more difficult due to the uncertainties of foreign law and judicial procedure. We may therefore experience significant difficulty resulting from the political or judicial climate in countries in which we operate or in which our products are used. In addition, from time to time the United States has passed laws and imposed regulations prohibiting or restricting trade with certain nations.
Although most of our international revenue is derived from transactions denominated in United States dollars, we have conducted and likely will continue to conduct some business in currencies other than the United States dollar. We currently do not hedge against foreign currency fluctuations. Accordingly, our profitability could be affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. We have no assurance that future laws and regulations will not materially adversely affect our international business.
The loss of certain key customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation and could result in a decline in our revenue.
Although we are not dependent on one or a few major customers, five customers accounted for approximately 34%, 30% and 32% of our consolidated revenue for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. One of these customers accounted for approximately 12% of our consolidated revenue and 21% of our sales in the Chemicals and Logistics segment for the year ended December 31, 2007. One of these customers accounted for approximately 8% of our consolidated revenue and 15% of our sales in the Chemicals and Logistics segment for the year ended December 31, 2006. One of these customers accounted for approximately 12% of our consolidated revenue and 22% of our sales in the Chemicals and Logistics segment for the year ended December 31, 2005. Our customer relationships are typically governed by purchase orders or other short-term contracts rather than long-term contracts. The loss of one or more of our key customers as a result of competition, creditworthiness or otherwise could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and could result in a decline in our revenue.

Risks Related to Our Industry
Volatility or decline in oil and natural gas prices may result in reduced demand for our products and services which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.
The markets for oil and natural gas have historically been extremely volatile. We anticipate that these markets will continue to be volatile in the future. Although oil and gas prices have increased significantly in recent years, there can be no guarantees that these prices will remain at current levels. Such volatility in oil and gas prices, or the perception by our customers of unpredictability in oil and natural gas prices, adversely affects the spending patterns in our industry. The demand for our products and services is, in large part, driven by current and anticipated oil and gas prices and the related general levels of production spending and drilling activity. In particular, volatility or a decline in oil and gas prices may cause a decline in exploration and drilling activities. This, in turn, could result in lower demand for our products and services and may cause lower prices for our products and services. As a result, volatility or a prolonged decline in oil or natural gas prices may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Competition from new and existing competitors within our industry could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive and fragmented. Our principal competitors include numerous small companies capable of competing effectively in our markets on a local basis as well as a number of large companies that possess substantially greater financial and other resources than we do. Our larger competitors may be able to devote greater resources to developing, promoting and selling their products and services. We may also face increased competition due to the entry of new competitors including current suppliers that decide to sell their products and services directly to our customers. As a result of this competition, we may experience lower sales or greater operating costs, such as marketing costs, which may have an adverse effect on our margins and results of operations.
Our industry has experienced a high rate of employee turnover. Any difficulty we experience attracting or retaining personnel could adversely affect our business.
We operate in a highly competitive industry for securing qualified personnel with the required technical skills and experience. Our services require skilled personnel who can perform physically demanding work. Due to industry volatility and the demanding nature of the work, workers may choose to pursue employment in fields that offer a more desirable work environment at wages that are competitive with ours. As a result, we may not be able to find enough labor to meet our needs, which could limit our growth. In addition, the cost of attracting and retaining qualified personnel has increased over the past several years due to competition, and we expect it will continue to increase in the future. In order to attract and retain qualified personnel we may be required to offer increased wages and benefits. If we are not able to increase the prices of our products and services to compensate for increases in compensation, or if we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, our operating results could be adversely affected.
Severe weather could have a material adverse impact on our business.
Our business could be materially and adversely affected by severe weather. Hurricanes, tropical storms, blizzards and cold weather and other weather hazards may cause the curtailment of services, damages to our equipment and facilities, interruptions in the transportation of our products and materials in accordance with contract schedules and loss of productivity. If our customers are unable to operate or are required to reduce their operations due to severe weather, and as a result curtail the purchases of our products and services, our business could be materially adversely affected.
A terrorist attack or armed conflict could harm our business.
Terrorist activities, anti-terrorist efforts and other armed conflict involving the United States may adversely affect the United States and global economies and could prevent us from meeting our financial and other
11
obligations. We may experience loss of business, delays or defaults in payments from payers, or disruptions of fuel supplies and markets if pipelines, production facilities, processing plants and refineries are direct targets or indirect casualties of an act of terror or war. In addition, such activities could reduce the overall demand for oil and natural gas which, in turn, could reduce the demand for our products and services. We have implemented certain security measures in response to the threat of terrorist activities. Terrorist activities and the threat of potential terrorist activities and any resulting economic downturn could adversely affect our results of operations, impair our ability to raise capital or otherwise adversely impact our ability to execute our business strategy.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile.
The market price of our common stock has historically been subject to significant fluctuations. The following factors, among others, could cause the price of our common stock in the public market to fluctuate significantly:
| variations in our quarterly results of operations; |
| changes in market valuations of companies in our industry; |
| fluctuation in stock market prices and volume; |
| fluctuation in oil and natural gas prices; |
| issuance of common stock or other securities in the future; |
| the addition or departure of key personnel; and |
| announcements by us or our competitors of new business, acquisitions or joint ventures. |
The stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations in recent years that have significantly affected the prices of the common stock of many companies, including companies in our industry. The changes often occur without regard to specific operating performance. The price of our common stock could continue to fluctuate based upon factors that have little to do with our Company, and these fluctuations could materially reduce our stock price. Class action lawsuits have frequently been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their common stock. If we become involved in this type of litigation it could be expensive and divert managements attention and Company resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.
An active market for our common stock may not continue to exist or may not continue to exist at current trading levels.
Our common stock was quoted on the American Stock Exchange until December 27, 2007 when it began trading on the New York Stock Exchange. While there is currently one specialist in our common stock, this specialist is not obligated to continue to make a market in our common stock. In the event it does not continue to make a market in our common stock, the liquidity of our common stock could be adversely impacted and a stockholder could have difficulty obtaining accurate stock quotes. Trading volume for our common stock has historically been low. We cannot assure you that an active trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. Sales of significant amounts of shares of our common stock in the public market could lower the market price of our stock.
We have no plans to pay dividends on our common stock, and therefore, investors will have to look to stock appreciation for return on their investments.
We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. Any payment of
12
future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness, statutory and contractual restrictions applying to the payment of dividends and other considerations that the board of directors deems relevant. Certain covenants of our senior credit facility restrict the payment of dividends without the prior written consent of the lender. Investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, in order to realize a return on their investment.
Certain anti-takeover provisions of our charter documents under Delaware law could discourage or prevent others from acquiring our company, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that:
| permit us to issue, without stockholder approval, up to 100,000 shares of preferred stock, in one or more series and, with respect to each series, to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of the series; |
| prohibit stockholders from calling a special meeting; |
| limit the ability of shareholders to act by written consent; |
| prohibit cumulative voting; and |
| require advance notice for stockholder proposals and nominations for election to the board of directors to be acted upon at meetings of stockholders. |
In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law limits business combinations with owners of more than 15% of our stock that have not been approved by the board of directors. These provisions and other similar provisions make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us without negotiation. Our board of directors could choose not to negotiate with an acquirer that it did not feel was in our strategic interest. If the acquirer were discouraged from offering to acquire us or prevented from successfully completing a hostile acquisition by the anti-takeover measures, you could lose the opportunity to sell your shares at a favorable price.
Future issuance of additional shares of our common stock could cause dilution of ownership interests and adversely affect our stock price.
The Company may in the future issue its previously authorized and unissued securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of its current stockholders. We are currently authorized to issue 40,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 18,731,491 were issued and 18,394,730 were outstanding as of December 31, 2007 and 1,335,634 were subject to future issuance through the exercise of options previously granted under our equity compensation plans and 336,761 of restricted stock awards that will be issued over the vesting period or based on achievement of performance goals. The potential issuance of such additional shares of common stock, whether directly or pursuant to any conversion right of our convertible senior notes or other convertible securities we may issue in the future, may create downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. We may also issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock for capital raising or other business purposes. Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or the perception that sales could occur, could have a material adverse effect on the price of our common stock.
We may issue shares of preferred stock or debt securities with greater rights than our common stock.
Subject to the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, our certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock and set the terms of the preferred stock without seeking any further approval from holders of our common stock. Currently, there are 100,000 preferred shares authorized but none issued. Any preferred stock that is issued may rank ahead of our common stock in terms of dividends, priority and liquidation premiums and may have greater voting rights than holders of our common stock.

As of March 10, 2008, our closing stock price, as quoted on the NYSE, was $20.19. As of March 10, 2008, there were 22,949,650 common shares outstanding held by approximately 12,700 holders of record.
On February 11, 2008, and in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes, the Company entered into a Share Lending Agreement (See Note 17 to consolidated financial statements included herein) with Bear, Sterns & Co. Inc. (BSIL). Under this agreement, the Company agreed to loan 3,800,000 shares of Common Stock to BSIL during a period beginning the date the Company entered into the Share Lending Agreement and ending on February 15, 2028, or earlier, if the Company notifies BSIL in writing of its intent to terminate the Share Lending Agreement. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the borrowed shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement.
In view of the contractual undertakings of BSIL in the Share Lending Agreement, which have the effect of substantially eliminating the economic dilution that otherwise would result from the issuance of the borrowed shares, the Company believes that under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States currently in effect, the borrowed shares will not be considered outstanding for the purpose of computing and reporting the Companys earnings per share.

Executive Summary
We are a global provider of oilfield products, services and equipment. We focus on serving the drilling-related needs of oil and gas companies primarily through our Chemicals and Logistics and our Drilling Products segments, and the production-related needs of oil and gas companies through our Artificial Lift and Chemicals and Logistics segments.
We were incorporated in 1985 and currently trade on the NYSE. Our headquarters are in Houston, Texas. We have expanded geographically so that we now have a growing presence in select domestic and international market areas in Oklahoma, Arkansas, New Mexico, the Gulf Coast, the Rocky Mountains, Canada, Mexico, Latin America, Europe and Asia. We market our products domestically and internationally in over 20 countries.
Several factors contributed to our financial performance in 2007, including:
| increased acceptance of our specialty chemicals by the major pumping pressure companies. |
| expansion of our rental tool and inspection services with the acquisition of Triumph. |
| expansion of our drilling products segment with the acquisition of CAVO. |
| expansion of our chemicals and logistics segment with the acquisition of Sooner. |
| record domestic drilling activity levels, gas prices and oil prices. |
Over the past three years, we have grown both organically and through successful acquisitions of complementary or competing businesses. We continue to actively seek profitable acquisition or merger candidates in our core businesses to either decrease costs of providing products or add new products and customer base to diversify our market. We strive to mitigate cyclical risk in the oilfield service sector by balancing our operations between onshore versus offshore; drilling versus production; rental tools versus service; domestic versus international; and natural gas versus crude oil.
We operate as a diversified oilfield service company through our three business segments. We believe that our product and service offerings and geographical presence through our three business segments provide us with diverse sources of cash flow. Each segment has its own technical expertise and a common commitment to provide its customers with competitively priced quality equipment and services.
| The Chemicals and Logistics segment develops, manufactures and markets specialty chemicals used in oil and gas well cementing, stimulation, acidizing, drilling and production treatment. Additionally, the segment provides well cementing, bulk blending and transload services and transload facility management services. |
| The Drilling Products segment rents, inspects, manufactures and markets downhole drilling equipment for the energy, mining, water well and industrial drilling sectors. |
| The Artificial Lift segment manufactures and markets artificial lift equipment which includes the Petrovalve line of rod pump components, electric submersible pumps, gas separators, valves and services to support coal bed methane production. |
18
The customers for our products and services include the major integrated oil and natural gas companies, independent oil and natural gas companies, pressure pumping service companies and state-owned national oil companies. Our ability to compete in the oilfield services market is dependent on our ability to differentiate our products and services, provide superior quality and service, and maintain a competitive cost structure. Activity levels in our three segments are driven primarily by current and expected commodity prices, drilling activity, oil and gas production levels, and customer capital spending allocated for drilling and production.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting policies and procedures include but are not limited to the following:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company performs credit evaluations of the Companys customers current credit worthiness, as determined by our review of their available credit information. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot give any assurances that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. The cyclical nature of our industry may affect our customers operating performance and cash flows, which could impact our ability to collect on these obligations. Additionally, some of our customers are located in certain international areas that are inherently subject to risks of economic, political and civil instabilities, which may impact our ability to collect these receivables.
Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, finished goods and work-in-process. Finished goods inventories include raw materials, direct labor and production overhead. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market using the weighted average cost method. The Company maintains a reserve for slow-moving and obsolete inventories, which is reviewed for adequacy on a periodic basis.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. The cost of ordinary maintenance and repairs is charged to operations, while replacements and major improvements are capitalized. Depreciation or amortization is provided at rates considered sufficient to amortize the cost of the assets using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings and leasehold improvements |
3-39 years | |
Machinery, equipment and rental tools |
3-7 years | |
Furniture and fixtures |
3-7 years | |
Transportation equipment |
3-5 years | |
Computer equipment |
3-5 years |
We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds either the fair value or the estimated discounted cash flows of the assets, whichever is more readily measurable. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
19
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate price paid by us in acquisitions over the fair market value of the tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired.
Intangible and Other Assets
Separable intangible and other assets that are not deemed to have indefinite lives will be amortized on a straight-line over their useful lives ranging from 2 to 15 years.
Financial Instruments
We consider the fair value of all financial instruments (primarily long-term debt) not to be materially different from their carrying values at the end of each fiscal year based on managements estimate of our ability to borrow funds under terms and conditions similar to those of our existing debt and because the majority of our debt carries a floating rate.
We have no off-balance sheet debt or other off-balance sheet financing arrangements. We have not entered into derivative or other hedging financial instruments.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue for product sales is recognized when all of the following criteria have been met: (i) evidence of an agreement exists, (ii) products are shipped or services rendered to the customer and all significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed and determinable and (iv) the collectibility is reasonably assured. Accounts receivable are recorded at that time net of any discounts. Earnings are charged with a provision for doubtful accounts based on a current review of collectibility of the accounts receivable. Accounts receivable deemed ultimately uncollectible are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts. Deposits and other funds received in advance of delivery are deferred until the transfer of ownership is complete. Our logistics division recognizes revenue of its design and construction oversight contracts under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs of completion. This percentage is applied to the total estimated revenue at completion to calculate revenue earned to date. Contract costs include all direct labor and material costs and those indirect costs related to manufacturing and construction operations. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Changes in job performance and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract bonus or penalty provisions and final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which such revisions appear probable. All known or anticipated losses on contracts are recognized in full when such amounts become apparent.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of foreign subsidiaries is the local currency. All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect as of the end of the reporting period. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustment is included in shareholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
Research and Development Costs
Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged to expense as incurred.
20
Income Taxes
The determination and evaluation of our annual income tax provision involves the interpretation of tax laws in various jurisdictions in which we operate and requires significant judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions regarding significant future events such as the amount, timing and character of income, deductions and tax credits. Changes in tax laws, regulations and our level of operations or profitability in each jurisdiction may impact our tax liability in any given year. While our annual tax provision is based on the information available to us at the time, a number of years may elapse before the ultimate tax liabilities in certain tax jurisdictions are determined. Current income tax expense reflects an estimate of our income tax liability for the current year, withholding taxes, changes in tax rates and changes in prior year tax estimates as returns are filed. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the anticipated future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect at year end. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that the benefit from the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We provide for uncertain tax positions pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Dilutive earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive effect of stock options.
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 certain assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. While management believes current estimates are reasonable and appropriate, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51 (FAS 160). FAS 160 requires (i) that non-controlling (minority) interests be reported as a component of shareholders equity, (ii) that net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest be separately identified in the consolidated statement of operations, (iii) that changes in a parents ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling interest be accounted for as equity transactions, (iv) that any retained non-controlling equity investment upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, and (v) that sufficient disclosures be provided that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. FAS 160 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2008 and should be applied prospectively. The presentation and disclosure requirements of the statement shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. We believe the adoption of SFAS 160 will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141R, Business Combinations (FAS 141R), to replace Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations. FAS 141R requires use of the acquisition method of accounting, defines the acquirer, establishes the acquisition date and broadens the scope to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 with earlier adoption prohibited. While the Company does not expect the adoption of FAS 141R to have a material impact to its
21
consolidated financial statements for transactions completed prior to December 31, 2008, the impact of the accounting change could be material for business combinations which may be consummated subsequent thereto.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (FAS 159). FAS 159 provides an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements. The fair value option established by FAS 159 permits the Company to elect to measure eligible items at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis and then report unrealized gains and losses for those items in the Companys earnings. FAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will continue to evaluate the application of FAS 159, and we currently do not expect there to be a material, if any, impact on our consolidated financial statements as a result of this adoption.
In September 2006, the FASB issued its Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (FAS 157), Fair Value Measurements. FAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will continue to evaluate the application of FAS 157, and we currently do not expect there to be a material, if any, impact on our consolidated financial statements as a result of this adoption.

Results for fiscal 2007 compared to fiscal 2006Consolidated
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $158.0 million, an increase of 57.0%, compared to $100.6 million for the same period in 2006. Revenue increased in all of our segments principally due to increased demand for our proprietary specialty chemicals, the completion of three acquisitions in 2007, and the expansion of our rental tool fleet. Approximately 60% of the revenue growth in 2007 over 2006 related to organic growth of our existing businesses.
22
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $67.7 million, an increase of 64.4%, compared to $41.2 million for the same period in 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007 was 42.9%, compared to 40.9% for the same period in 2006. The increase in gross profit is due to an increase in specialty chemical sales as a percentage of total sales overall. Chemicals and Logistics made up approximately 54.6% of total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 versus 50.2% for the same period in 2006. In addition, sales of our proprietary environmentally benign green chemicals which sell at higher margins made up 65.4% of the total Chemicals and Logistics revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007, versus 51.5% for the same period in 2006.
Selling, general and administrative costs are not directly attributable to products sold or services rendered. Selling, general and administrative costs were $30.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, an increase of 61.9%, compared to $18.9 million during the same period in 2006. The increase was primarily due to increased indirect personnel costs in all divisions as we shift into the more people intensive rental and service business, expand geographically and expand our sales and corporate support staff. General and administrative expenses were higher due to increased costs associated with Sarbanes-Oxley initiatives, computing systems upgrades/conversions, and implementation of the RTMS (rental tool management system). All of these administrative upgrades are expected to result in enhanced control and efficiency during 2008. In addition, $1.7 million of equity compensation expense associated with restricted stock and option grants made to employees, directors, and officers, was incurred in 2007 which was not incurred in 2006.
Depreciation and amortization costs were $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, an increase of 137.7% compared to $2.8 million during the same period in 2006. The increase is due to higher depreciation associated with acquired assets and increased capital expenditures. In addition, amortization expense increased due to the recognition of intangible assets from acquisitions completed in 2006 and 2007.
Research and development (R&D) costs were $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, an increase of 29.4% compared to $0.7 million during the same period in 2006. The increase in R&D related to the establishment of our specialty chemical research facility that opened in 2007. R&D expenditures are charged to expense as incurred.
Interest expense was $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 versus $1.0 million in 2006. The increase was a result of the increase in our overall debt level associated with the Triumph, CAVO and Sooner acquisitions. We amended our credit facility in January 2007 in conjunction with the Triumph acquisition and again in August 2007 for the acquisition of Sooner. Our borrowing capacity on the line of credit and equipment term loan was increased to partially fund these acquisitions.
A provision for income taxes of $10.4 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2007. An effective tax rate of 38.4% was applied for the year ended December 31, 2007 versus 36.7% for the same period in 2006. The increase in our effective tax rate is primarily due to an increase in the percentage of earnings in state jurisdictions with higher state income tax rates, and increased state income tax expense resulting from the enactment of the new Texas Margin Tax in 2007. Partially offsetting these factors is the increased tax benefit associated with U.S. manufacturing operations under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
Results for fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005Consolidated
Revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 was $100.6 million, an increase of 90.4%, compared to $52.9 million for the year 2005. Revenue increased in all of our business segments due to increased acceptance of our products, acquisitions completed in the third quarter of 2005 and in 2006, rental revenue from the investment in additional equipment, improved pricing, and opening new operating locations. Revenue increased most significantly due to organic growth of our Chemical and Logistics division, followed by the acquisition of Can-Ok in January, TWS in April and LifTech in June of 2006. These acquisitions accounted for
23
$16.5 million of the increase in revenue, with the remaining $31.2 million coming from internal revenue growth within the Chemicals and Logistics segment and the Drilling Products segment. International revenue made up approximately 6.5% of total revenue in 2006 versus 15.9% in 2005.
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2006 increased 87.8% to $41.2 million, or 40.9% of revenue, compared to $21.9 million, or 41.5%, of revenue for the year 2005. The increase in gross profit is due to the increase in revenue in all of our business segments, with high margin tool rentals and specialty chemical sales contributing most significantly. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to two artificial lift acquisitions which typically have lower margins than our existing businesses.
As the Company matures and with the addition of new products and services from acquisitions margins within the segments have shifted. Organically, managements focus has been placed on expanding sales of our higher margin products and services. This has been offset by the addition of several new products that generate lower margins but complement the existing businesses and allow the Company to cross sell products and services in new markets, and spread corporate costs over a larger base of operations.
Selling, general and administrative costs are not directly attributable to products sold or services rendered. Selling, general and administrative costs were $18.9 million in 2006 versus $9.5 million in 2005. The largest increase in expenses related to corporate activities which rose to $5.8 million in 2006 compared to $2.9 million in 2005. The increase was driven by a $1.0 million increase in tax, accounting and audit fees associated with Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. In addition, we incurred $0.7 million in professional fees related to due diligence efforts for a significant acquisition terminated in August 2006. The balance of the increase is primarily due to increased sales and field support costs in all three segments.
Depreciation and amortization increased from $1.8 million in 2005 to $2.8 million in 2006. The increase is due to additional depreciable assets resulting from acquisitions and capital expenditures. Approximately $3.2 million was spent in 2006 to expand our chemical manufacturing facilities and $2.9 million to expand our base of rental tools including the purchase of drilling mud motors.
R&D costs increased from $0.6 million in 2005 to $0.7 million in 2006 due to the expansion of our product development department. Research and development expenditures are charged to expense as incurred.
Interest expense was $1.0 million in 2006 versus $0.8 million in 2005. The increase was a result of the increase in our overall debt level associated with acquisitions, coupled with higher variable interest rates. The majority of our indebtedness carries a variable interest rate tied to the prime rate or LIBOR.
A provision for income taxes of $6.6 million was recorded in 2006. An effective tax rate of 36.7% was applied in 2006 versus 17.6% in 2005, resulting in a $4.9 million, or 298.2% increase in the tax provision. The significant increase in taxes is a result of an increase in our projected federal statutory rate based on estimated income levels, and an increase in our estimated state income tax liability.

Results for fiscal 2007 compared to fiscal 2006Chemicals and Logistics
Chemical and Logistics revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $86.3 million, an increase of 70.7%, compared to $50.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in revenue is primarily a result of an increase in overall sales volume, particularly of our proprietary specialty chemicals. The most significant revenue growth occurred in the Mid-Continent, Permian Basin, Rocky Mountain and South Texas regions. Sales of our biodegradable, environmentally benign green chemicals grew 117%, to $56.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $26.0 million for the same period in 2006.
On August 31, 2007, the Company acquired Sooner Energy Services to establish a platform for expansion into production chemicals. Sooner develops, produces and distributes specialty chemical products and services for the drilling and production of natural gas. The Sooner acquisition contributed approximately $2 million in revenue in 2007.
The Company signed a five year agreement to build and operate a liquid chemical distribution facility for a major service company. Construction of our liquids chemical facility was completed during the fourth quarter of 2007 and is expected to double our throughput service revenue in 2008. The new liquid chemical distribution facility and our existing cement handling and blending facility will provide a broad range of blending and logistics services to our customer for cementing and stimulation products used offshore in the Gulf of Mexico.
Gross profit increased $18.3 million, or 80.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 47.5% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 44.9% for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in gross profit is due to a continued shift in sales mix to higher margin patented and proprietary products. Early in 2007, construction of a 30,000 square foot expansion to our production facilities was completed. This facility tripled production capabilities and allows the division to manage larger volumes of inputs to take further advantage of volume pricing discounts.
Income from operations increased $15.5 million, or 92.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue increased to 37.5% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 33.3% for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in operating profit is driven by an increase in overall sales activity coupled with a continued shift in sales mix to higher margin patented and proprietary products.
Results for fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005Chemicals and Logistics
Chemicals and Logistics revenue increased $20.9 million, or 70.5%, for the year 2006 compared to 2005. The increase in revenue was a result of an increase in volume coupled with higher prices, particularly of our proprietary specialty chemicals. The most significant revenue growth occurred in the Rocky Mountains, Mid-Continent, Permian Basin regions and Canada. Sales of our proprietary biodegradable environmentally benign green chemicals grew 217.1% from $8.2 million in 2005 to $26.0 million in 2006. Margins continued to increase as we focused on shifting more of our sales mix to higher margin patented and proprietary products.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased from 39.7% in 2005 to 44.9% in 2006. The increase in gross profit was due to price increases and a reduction in cost of goods as a percentage of total revenue. Margins continued to increase as the sales mix shifted to higher margin patented and proprietary products. Managing chemical feedstock and transportation prices and passing cost increases on to our customers was critical to maintain our gross profits. As of the end of 2006, construction of a 30,000 square foot expansion to our production facilities was substantially completed. This facility tripled production capabilities and allowed the division to manage larger volumes of inputs to take further advantage of volume pricing discounts.
Income from operations increased from $8.2 million in 2005 to $16.8 million in 2006, and the income from operations as a percentage of revenue increased from 27.6% to 33.3%, respectively.

Results for fiscal 2007 compared to fiscal 2006Drilling Products
Drilling Products revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007 were $56.8 million, an increase of 54.6%, compared to $36.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. Growth in rentals and services associated with the acquisitions and the expansion of our mud motor fleet contributed significantly to the increase. In January 2007 we acquired the assets of Triumph Drilling Tools, a drilling tool sales and rental provider in Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas. Additionally, in January 2007 we acquired a 50% interest and subsequently acquired the remaining 50% interest in November 2007 in CAVO Drilling Motors, which specializes in the rental, service and sale of high performance mud motors. These acquisitions expanded machining, repair, tool rental and inspection service capability within our drilling products group. These acquisitions contributed approximately $18.5 million in revenue during 2007.
Gross profit increased $7.7 million, or 50.7 %, for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased from 41.3% for the year ended December 31, 2006 to 40.2% in 2007 primarily due to higher personnel, auto and travel costs.
Income from operations decreased $0.7 million, or 11.0% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased to 9.9% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 17.2% for the same period in 2006. The decrease in operating profit as a percentage of revenue is due to increased indirect personnel and travel costs, and an incremental $2.9 million of depreciation and amortization associated with acquired assets.
Results for fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005Drilling Products
During 2005 and 2006 an emphasis was placed on expanding our drilling products sales through acquisition, allowing us to expand geographically and to grow our line of products and services. In August 2005 we acquired the assets of Harmon, a downhole oilfield and mining tool company with manufacturing and sales operations located in Midland, Texas, and the assets of LOR, a drilling tool rental and inspection service provider in South Texas. In January 2006 we acquired the assets of Can-Ok, a drilling tool sales and rental provider in Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas. These acquisitions expanded or provided machining, repair, tool rental and inspection service capability within our drilling products group.
Drilling Products revenue increased $14.9 million, or 68.0%, for the year 2006 compared to 2005. The drilling tool acquisitions completed in August 2005 and January 2006 coupled with downhole mud motor rentals and higher centralizer sales contributed to the increase in overall sales.
Gross profit increased $5.8 million, or 61.2%, for the year 2006 compared to 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased from 43.0% in 2005 versus 41.3% for 2006. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenue relates to higher inventory related expenses. In addition we incurred significant costs in building up our capacity and improving overall conditions with our acquired businesses.
26
Income from operations increased $1.7 million, or 35.6%, for the year 2006 compared to 2005. Costs associated with developing our machining and repair capacity, and the expenses required to improve facility conditions and equipment negatively impacted income from operations in 2006 for this division.

Results for fiscal 2007 compared to fiscal 2006Artificial Lift
Artificial lift revenue was $14.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, an 11.7% increase compared to $13.3 million for the same period in 2006. The increase in overall sales is due to the acquisition of two coal bed methane service companies in the second quarter of 2006 offset by an overall decline in coal bed methane activity in the Powder River Basin during 2007 as a result of lower wellhead gas prices in the Rocky Mountains, pipeline capacity constraints and a reduction in sales to a significant customer.
Gross profit increased $0.5 million, or 15.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 25.8% in the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 25.0% for the same period in 2006 due to a decrease in cost of goods as a percentage of sales.
Income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased to 9.3% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 11.3% for the same period in 2006. The decrease in operating profit as a percentage of revenue is due to increased indirect personnel and travel costs, and an incremental $0.4 million of depreciation and amortization associated with acquired assets.
Results for fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005Artificial Lift
In the second quarter of 2006 we acquired TWS and LifTech as part of our goal to develop a significant Artificial Lift segment and expand our production driven revenue base. The combined companies provide a broad spectrum of electric submersible pumps, gas separators, valves and services to support the coal bed methane producers in the Powder River Basin region and beyond. We believe the artificial lift acquisitions will provide additional marketing opportunities for our patented Petrovalve line of pump components, our patented gas separator, and our line of electric submersible pumps.
Management continues to focus on effectively marketing the Petrovalve line of pump components. Our patented guided valves are the only product which can be placed horizontally allowing a pump to be placed at the production zone in horizontally completed wells reducing the effort needed to pump the product to the surface. The Petrovalve can effectively lift highly viscous oil in heavy oil or tar sand production zones. Because of this we signed an exclusive agreement with a major equipment distributor in Canada and have aligned ourselves with a major domestic pump manufacturer to build pumps with our valve.
Revenue was $13.3 million for the year 2006 versus $1.4 million in 2005. Acquisitions accounted for $12.7 million of the increase. The strategic complement of TWS and LifTech, which operate now as Flotek Pump Services, increased the Companys production activity driven revenue base.
27
Gross profit increased $2.9 million primarily due to the acquisitions. The gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased from 34.3% in 2005 to 25.0% in 2006. The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of revenue is due to a shift in product mix. The product revenue associated with the two acquisitions are lower margin product sales compared to our existing Petrovalve sales. Although several of our new products generate lower margins, they complement our existing businesses and allow the company to cross sell products and services in new markets, and spread corporate costs over a larger base of operations. We believe we can improve the gross margins of the acquisitions primarily through better supply chain management and product mix.
Income from operations increased from $0.2 million in 2005 to $1.5 million in 2006.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Our on-going capital requirements arise primarily from our need to service our debt, to acquire and maintain equipment, to fund our working capital requirements and to complete acquisitions. We have funded our capital requirements with operating cash flows, debt borrowings, and by issuing shares of our common stock. We had cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $0.5 million at December 31, 2006.
Operating Activities
In the year ended December 31, 2007, we generated $25.1 million in cash from operating activities. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $16.7 million. Non-cash additions to net income in the 2007 period consisted of $6.5 million of depreciation and amortization and $1.7 million related to the expensing of stock options as required under SFAS No. 123R.
During the year ended December 31, 2007, changes in working capital provided $2.0 million in cash, principally due to a decrease of $0.7 million in inventory, an increase of $3.8 million in income taxes payable and accrued liabilities, offset by a decrease of $2.4 million in accounts payable.
Investing Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2007, we used $70.5 million in investing activities consisting of three acquisitions and our capital expenditures. During the year ended December 31, 2007, we completed the following acquisitions for a total net cash outlay of $53.0 million, consisting of the purchase price and acquisition costs less cash acquired:

Financing Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2007, financing activities provided a net of $46.2 million in cash.
In January 2007, we amended the Senior Credit Facility in conjunction with the acquisition of Triumph. The amendment to the Senior Credit Facility increased the maximum amount outstanding on the revolving line of credit from the lesser of (a) $20.0 million or (b) the sum of 80% of eligible domestic trade accounts receivable and 50% of eligible inventory, as defined. The terms of the revolving loan agreement were modified to provide for borrowings that bear interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The equipment term loan was amended to provide for borrowings of $35.0 million bearing interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points payable over 84 months. The amendment modified many of our principal covenants including our leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio and net capital expenditures. The real estate term loans remained unchanged.
In September 2007, we amended the Senior Credit Facility, comprised of a revolving line of credit, an equipment term loan and real estate term loans, in conjunction with the acquisition of Sooner. The amendment to the Senior Credit Facility increased the maximum amount outstanding on the revolving line of credit from the lesser of (a) $25.0 million or (b) the sum of 85% of eligible domestic trade accounts receivable and 50% of eligible inventory, as defined. The terms of the revolving loan agreement were not modified from the January 2007 amendment and provide for borrowings that bear interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The equipment term loan was amended to provide for borrowings of $36.0 million bearing interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points payable over 84 months.
In November 2007, we amended the Senior Credit Facility, comprised of a revolving line of credit, an equipment term loan and real estate term loans, in conjunction with the acquisition of the remaining 50% of CAVO. The equipment term loan was amended to provide for borrowings of $42.0 million bearing interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points payable over 84 months.
As of December 31, 2007, we had $15.4 million outstanding under the revolving line of credit of the amended Senior Credit Facility. Availability under the revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2007 is approximately $9.3 million. Bank borrowings are subject to certain covenants. Affirmative covenants include compliance with laws, various reporting requirements, visitation rights, maintenance of insurance, maintenance of properties, keeping of records and books of account, preservation of existence of assets, notification of adverse events, ERISA compliance, joinder agreement with new subsidiaries, borrowing base audits, and use of treasury management services. Negative covenants include limitations associated with liens, indebtedness, change in nature of business, transactions with affiliates, investments, distributions, subordinate debt, leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, consolidated net income, prohibition of fundamental changes, asset sales and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2007, we were in compliance with all covenants. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $0.6 million in vehicle loans and capitalized vehicle leases.

Certain of the financial instruments we have used to obtain capital are subject to market risks from fluctuations in market interest rates. As of December 31, 2007, we have $57.5 million of variable rate indebtedness within our credit facility. As a result, a fluctuation in market interest rates of one percentage point over the next twelve months would impact our interest expense by approximately $0.6 million.

MANAGEMENTS ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to the financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 as required by the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(c). In making its assessment, we have utilized the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework. We concluded that based on our evaluation, our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.
The Certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 have been included as Exhibits 31 and 32 in our Form 10-K.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Flotek Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Flotek Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries:
We have audited Flotek Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys 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, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, 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 companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the companys principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the companys 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 generally accepted accounting principles. A companys 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 generally accepted accounting principles, 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 companys 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 the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the 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, Flotek Industries, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the COSO criteria.
In conducting the Companys evaluation of effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, the Company excluded the acquisitions of Sooner Energy Services, Inc. (Sooner) and CAVO Drilling Motors Ltd. Co. (CAVO) as permitted by the guidance issued by the Office of the Chief Accountant of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The acquisitions of Sooner and CAVO were completed on August 31, 2007 and November 1, 2007, respectively. These acquisitions constituted 19.5% of total assets as of December 31, 2007, and 2.1% of total revenue for the year then ended.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related Consolidated Statements of Income, Stockholders Equity and Cash Flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 and our report dated March 17, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Flotek serves major and independent companies in the domestic and international oilfield service and mining industries. The Companys headquarters are located in Houston, Texas, and has operations in Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico, Louisiana, Utah, Wyoming and The Netherlands. We market our products domestically and internationally in over 20 countries.
The consolidated financial statements consist of Flotek Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively referred to herein as the Company or Flotek. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
On July 11, 2007, the Company effected a two-for-one stock split in the form of a 100% stock dividend to stockholders of record as of July 3, 2007. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.
Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Consolidation Policy: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary corporations, after elimination of all material intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits. The Company does not have any investment in unconsolidated subsidiaries or non-marketable investments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Restricted Cash: Restricted cash serves as collateral for a standby letter of credit that provides financial assurance that the Company will fulfill its obligations related to an international contract to design and project manage the construction of a bulk handling facility in Mexico.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The Company performs credit evaluations of the Company customers current credit worthiness, as determined by our review of their available credit information. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot give any assurances that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. The cyclical nature of our industry may affect our customers operating performance and cash flows, which could impact our ability to collect on these obligations. Additionally, some of our customers are located in certain international areas that are inherently subject to risks of economic, political and civil instabilities, which may impact our ability to collect these receivables.

Inventories: Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods. Finished goods inventories include raw materials, direct labor and production overhead. The Company determines the value of acquired work-in-process inventories by estimating the selling prices of finished goods or replacement cost less the sum of (a) cost to complete, (b) costs of disposal, and (c) a reasonable profit allowance for the completing and selling effort of the Company based on profit for similar finished goods. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market using the weighted average cost method. The Company maintains a reserve for slow-moving and obsolete inventories, which is reviewed for adequacy on a periodic basis.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds either the fair value or the estimated discounted cash flows of the assets, whichever is more readily measurable. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired net of the fair value of liabilities assumed in the acquisition. SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142) requires that intangible assets with indefinite lives, including goodwill, be evaluated on an annual basis for impairment or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change which could potentially result in an impairment.
The impairment test requires the allocation of goodwill and all other assets and liabilities to reporting units. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the book value (including goodwill) then goodwill is reduced to its implied fair value and the amount of the write-down is charged against earnings.
The Company completed its annual impairment review during the fourth quarter of 2007. No impairment was deemed necessary. Increases in estimated future costs or decreases in projected revenue could lead to an impairment of all or a portion of the Companys goodwill in future periods.
Financial Instruments: The Company considers the fair value of all financial instruments (primarily accounts receivable and long-term debt) not to be materially different from their carrying values at the end of each fiscal year based on managements estimate of the collectibility of net accounts receivable and due to our ability to borrow funds under terms and conditions similar to those of our existing debt and because the majority of our debt carries a floating rate.
The Company has no off-balance sheet debt or other off-balance sheet financing arrangements. The Company has not entered into derivatives or other financial hedging instruments.
Revenue Recognition: Revenue for product sales is recognized when all of the following criteria have been met: (i) evidence of an agreement exists, (ii) products are shipped or services rendered to the customer and all significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed and determinable and (iv) collectibility is reasonably assured. Accounts receivable are recorded at that time, net of any discounts. Earnings are charged with a provision for doubtful accounts based on a current review of collectibility of the accounts receivable. Accounts receivable deemed ultimately uncollectible are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts. Deposits and other funds received in advance of delivery are deferred until the transfer of ownership is complete.
The Logistics group recognizes revenue of its design and construction oversight contracts under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs of completion. This percentage is applied to the total estimated revenue at completion to calculate revenue earned to date. Contract costs include all direct labor and material costs and those indirect costs related to manufacturing and construction operations. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Changes in job performance and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract bonus or penalty provisions and final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which such revisions appear probable. All known or anticipated losses on contracts are
41
FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
recognized in full when such amounts become apparent. Bulk material transload revenue is recognized as services are performed for the customer.
Within the Drilling Products segment payments from customers for the cost of oilfield rental equipment that is damaged or lost-in-hole are reflected as revenue with the carrying value of the related equipment charged to cost of sales.
The Company is generally not contractually obligated to accept returns, except for defective products. If a product is determined to be defective, the Company will replace the product or issue a credit memo. Based on historical return rates, no provision is made for returns at the time of sale. All costs associated with product returns are expensed as incurred.
Foreign Currency Translation: The functional currency of foreign subsidiaries is the local currency. All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect as of the end of the reporting period. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustment is included in shareholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
Research and Development Costs: Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged to expense as incurred.
Income Taxes: Our income tax expense is based on our income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available to us in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. We provide for income taxes based on the tax laws and rates in effect in the countries in which operations are conducted and income is earned. Our income tax expense is expected to fluctuate from year to year as our operations are conducted in different taxing jurisdictions and the amount of pre-tax income fluctuates.
The determination and evaluation of our annual income tax provision involves the interpretation of tax laws in various jurisdictions in which we operate and requires significant judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions regarding significant future events such as the amount, timing and character of income, deductions and tax credits. Changes in tax laws, regulations and our level of operations or profitability in each jurisdiction may impact our tax liability in any given year. While our annual tax provision is based on the information available to us at the time, a number of years may elapse before the ultimate tax liabilities in certain tax jurisdictions are determined.
Current income tax expense reflects an estimate of our income tax liability for the current year, withholding taxes, changes in tax rates and changes in prior year tax estimates as returns are filed. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the anticipated future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect at year end. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more-likely-than-not that the benefit from the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We provide for uncertain tax positions pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). Our policy is that we recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. For United States federal tax purposes, our tax returns for the tax years 2004 through 2006 remain open for examination by the tax authorities. Generally, for state tax purposes, our 2002 through 2006 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under a four year statute of limitations, however, certain states may keep their statute open for six to ten years.
It is our intention to permanently reinvest all of the undistributed earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in such subsidiaries. Accordingly, we have not provided for U.S. deferred taxes on the undistributed earnings of our
42
FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
non-U.S. subsidiaries. If a distribution is made to us from the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries, we could be required to record additional taxes. Because we cannot predict when, if at all, we will make a distribution of these undistributed earnings, we are unable to make a determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability.
Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Dilutive earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive effect of stock options and warrants.
Debt Issuance Costs: The costs related to the issuance of debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method, over the maturity periods of the related debt.
Stock-Based Compensation: We adopted SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R), effective January 1, 2006. This statement requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock awards, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their grant-date fair values. We did not have any unvested stock options outstanding as of January 1, 2006.
Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for our stock-based compensation using Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25). Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is recognized for stock options with an exercise price that is less than the market price on the grant date of the option.
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 certain assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. While management believes current estimates are reasonable and appropriate, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications: Certain amounts for 2006 and 2005 have been reclassified in the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141R, Business Combinations (FAS 141R), to replace Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations. FAS 141R requires use of the acquisition method of accounting, defines the acquirer, establishes the acquisition date and broadens the scope to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 with earlier adoption prohibited. While the Company does not expect the adoption of FAS 141R to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements for transactions completed prior to December 31, 2008, the impact of the accounting change could be material for business combinations which may be consummated subsequent thereto.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (FAS 159). FAS 159 provides an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements. The fair value option established by
43
FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
FAS 159 permits the Company to elect to measure eligible items at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis and then report unrealized gains and losses for those items in the Companys earnings. FAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact that FAS 159 will have on our results of operations and financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued its Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (FAS 157), Fair Value Measurements. FAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact that FAS 157 will have on our results of operations and financial position.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51 (FAS 160). FAS 160 requires (i) that non-controlling (minority) interests be reported as a component of shareholders equity, (ii) that net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest be separately identified in the consolidated statement of operations, (iii) that changes in a parents ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling interest be accounted for as equity transactions, (iv) that any retained non-controlling equity investment upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, and (v) that sufficient disclosures are provided that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. FAS 160 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2008 and should be applied prospectively. The presentation and disclosure requirements of the statement shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. We believe the adoption of SFAS 160 will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Note 3Acquisitions
Acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting under SFAS No. 141 Accounting for Business Combinations. The acquired companies results have been included in the accompanying financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. Allocation of the purchase price for acquisitions was based on the estimates of fair value of the net assets acquired and is subject to adjustment upon finalization of the purchase price allocation within the one year anniversary of the acquisition.

Note 6Goodwill
We evaluate the carrying value of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and on an interim basis, if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to: (i) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (ii) unanticipated competition, or (iii) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting units carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting units goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. The Companys evaluation of goodwill completed during 2007 resulted in no impairment losses.

credit from the lesser of (a) $20.0 million or (b) the sum of 80% of eligible domestic trade accounts receivable and 50% of eligible inventory, as defined. The terms of the revolving loan agreement were modified to provide for borrowings that bear interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points maturing in August 2009. The equipment term loan was amended to provide for borrowings of $35.0 million bearing interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points payable over 84 months. The amendment modified many of our principal covenants including our leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio and net capital expenditures. The real estate term loans remained unchanged. Our bank borrowings are collateralized by substantially all of our assets. Based on the maturity date, the current revolving line of credit is classified as long-term debt.
In September 2007, we amended the Senior Credit Facility in conjunction with the acquisition of Sooner. The amendment to the Senior Credit Facility increased the maximum amount outstanding on the revolving line of credit from the lesser of (a) $25.0 million or (b) the sum of 85% of eligible domestic trade accounts receivable and 50% of eligible inventory, as defined. The terms of the revolving loan agreement were not modified from the January 2007 amendment and still provide for borrowings that bear interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points maturing in August 2009. The equipment term loan was amended to provide for borrowings of $36.0 million bearing interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points payable over 84 months. The amendment modified many of our principal covenants including our fixed charge coverage ratio and net capital expenditures. The real estate term loans remained unchanged. Our bank borrowings are collateralized by substantially all of our assets. Based on the maturity date, the current revolving line of credit is classified as long-term debt.
In November 2007, we amended the Senior Credit Facility, comprised of a revolving line of credit, an equipment term loan and real estate term loans, in conjunction with the acquisition of the remaining 50% of CAVO. The equipment term loan was amended to provide for borrowings of $42.0 million bearing interest at LIBOR plus 175 basis points payable over 84 months.
As of December 31, 2007, we had $15.4 million outstanding under the revolving line of credit of the amended Senior Credit Facility. Availability under the revolving line of credit as of December 31, 2007 is approximately $9.3 million. Bank borrowings are subject to certain covenants. Affirmative covenants include compliance with laws, various reporting requirements, visitation rights, maintenance of insurance, maintenance of properties, keeping of records and books of account, preservation of existence of assets, notification of adverse events, ERISA compliance, joinder agreement with new subsidiaries, borrowing base audits, and use of treasury management services. Negative covenants include limitations associated with liens, indebtedness, change in nature of business, transactions with affiliates, investments, distributions, subordinate debt, leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, consolidated net income, prohibition of fundamental changes, asset sales and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2007, we were in compliance with all covenants. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $0.6 million in vehicle loans and capitalized vehicle leases.

Our current corporate organization structure requires us to file two separate consolidated U.S. Federal income tax returns. As a result, taxable income of one group cannot be offset by tax attributes, including net operating losses, of the other group.
We have not provided for withholding and U.S. taxes for the unremitted earnings of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries because we intend to permanently reinvest a portion of the unremitted earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in their foreign operations. Income tax expense would be incurred if these funds were remitted to the United States. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of the deferred tax liability on such unremitted earnings.
FIN 48 clarifies the criteria that an individual tax position must satisfy for some or all of the benefits of that position to be recognized in a companys financial statements. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not, and a measurement attribute for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company has adopted the provisions of FIN 48. There were no unrecognized tax positions upon adoption or at December 31, 2007. As a result, the cumulative effect related to adopting FIN 48 was a $73,000 charge to retained earnings related to additional penalties and interest. In addition, certain amounts have been reclassified in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets in order to comply with the requirements of the statement.
The Company is currently being audited by the Internal Revenue Service for the year ending December 31, 2005 and is open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ending December 31, 2004 through 2007. The Company and its subsidiaries state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ending December 31, 2003 through 2007. The 2005 Internal Revenue Service audit is ongoing and at this point we do not expect the outcome of the audit to have a material impact on our operating results.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
The weighted-average estimated fair value of stock options granted during 2007 was $7.21 per share. These amounts were determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which values options based on the stock price at the grant date, the expected life of the option, the estimated volatility of the stock, the expected dividend payments, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model were as follows for stock options granted in 2007, 2006 and 2005:
For the Years Ended December 31, | ||||||
2007 | 2006 | 2005 | ||||
Risk-free interest rate |
4.06% 4.82% | | 4.17% 4.55% | |||
Expected volatility of common stock |
39.7% 42.0% | | 50% | |||
Expected life of options |
5 years* | | 10 years | |||
Vesting period |
1 4 years | | 0 4 years |
* | During 2007 significant options were also granted with a weighted-average expected life 3.5 years. |
The risk free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury securities that correspond to the expected holding period of the options. Volatility for the options granted in 2007 represents the weighted average of volatility of a group of companies which are considered peers. The expected term was determined in accordance with the simplified method as described in SAB No. 107, Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The expected forfeiture rate of 5% for 2007 was determined based on the historical stock option forfeiture data.
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully-transferable. Because option valuation models require the use of subjective assumptions, changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the options, and our options do not have the characteristics of traded options, the option valuation models do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of our options.
As of December 31, 2007, there was $8.8 million of total measured but unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements granted under our plans. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.6 years.
During 2007, the Company repurchased 70,174 shares of its common stock issued in conjunction with the acquisition of Spidle Sales and Services, Inc. The repurchase of these shares was optional by the parties involved in the acquisition agreement. The Company accounts for treasury stock using the cost method and includes treasury stock as a component of stockholders equity. The Company currently does not have or intend to initiate a share repurchase program.
Note 13Related Party Transactions
The Company purchased from Phoenix its manufacturing assets, inventory and intellectual property rights to produce oilfield shale shaker screens on January 28, 2005.

401(k) Retirement Plan
The Company maintains a 401(k) retirement plan for the benefit of eligible employees in the United States. All employees are eligible for the plan upon six months of employment. In March 2006, the Company began matching 0.25% of each employees contribution up to 0.75%. Expense related to the Company matching for 2007, 2006 and 2005 was approximately $89,000, $16,000 and $0, respectively.
Concentrations
Essentially all of our revenue is derived from the oil and gas industry. This concentration of customers in one industry increases our credit and business risk, particularly given the volatility of activity levels in the industry. The majority of our sales are to major or large independent oilfield service companies with established credit histories, and actual credit losses have been insignificant.
Five customers accounted for 34% of consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007. The majority of these same customers were in the Chemicals and Logistics segment of our business, and they collectively accounted for 52% of the revenue in this segment. One customer accounted for 12% of the consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007. The same customer accounted for 21% of revenue of our Chemicals and Logistics segment for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The specialty chemical business unit designs, develops, manufactures packages and sells chemicals used by oilfield service companies in oil and gas well drilling, cementing, stimulation and production. The logistics business unit manages automated bulk material handling, loading facilities, and blending capabilities for oilfield service companies. |
| The Drilling Products segment rents, inspects, manufactures and markets downhole drilling equipment for the energy, mining, water well and industrial drilling sectors. |
| The Artificial Lift segment manufactures and markets artificial lift equipment which includes the Petrovalve line of beam pump components, electric submersible pumps, gas separators, valves and services to support coal bed methane production. |
The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is business segment income before taxes. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Inter-segment sales are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Summarized financial information concerning the segments as of and for the years ending December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 is shown in the following tables (in thousands):

Note 17Subsequent Events (Unaudited)
Amendment to Senior Credit Facility
On February 4, 2008, the Company entered into a Second Amendment (the Amendment) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 31, 2007, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. The Senior Credit Facility consists of a revolving line of credit, an equipment term loan and two real estate term loans. The Amendment permited the Company to consummate the acquisition of Teledrift, Inc. (Teledrift), to issue up to $150 million in convertible senior notes due 2028 to fund the purchase price of Teledrift, and to incur additional capital expenditures, and includes new financial covenants and other amendments as described below.
The Amendment added a Minimum Net Worth (as defined in the Senior Credit Facility) covenant to prohibit the Companys Net Worth as of the end of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2008, to be less than an amount equal to:
| 80% of the Companys net worth as of the end of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2007; plus |
| an amount equal to 75% of the Companys consolidated net income for each fiscal quarter ending after December 31, 2007 in which such consolidated net income is greater than $0; plus |
| an amount equal to 100% of equity issuance proceeds received by the Company or any of its subsidiaries after December 31, 2007. |
Net Worth means the Companys consolidated shareholders equity determined in accordance with GAAP.
The Amendment also (i) includes an additional financial covenant to prohibit the Companys senior leverage ratio as of each fiscal quarter end to be more than 2.00 to 1.00; (ii) prohibits the Companys fixed
60
FLOTEK INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
charge coverage ratio for each fiscal quarter end to be less than 1.25 to 1.0; (iii) extends the maturity date on the Companys working capital loan to February 4, 2011; (iv) requires the Company to reduce the principal amount of its term loan to $40.0 million, (v) limits aggregate capital expenditures by the Company and its subsidiaries to $20,000,000 in any fiscal year and (vi) requires the Company to make mandatory prepayments of the term loan portion of our Senior Credit Facility in specified circumstances, including if the appraised value of our fixed assets falls below specified levels.
In addition, the Amendment increases interest rates under the Senior Credit Facility by adjusting the margin applicable to base rate advances and Eurodollar advances to those set forth below:
| Each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the Alternative Base Rate plus 2.75% and (ii) the Higher Lawful Rate. |
| Each Eurodollar Advance shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the lessor of (i) the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Advance plus 3.75% and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate. |
The Amendment provides that the Company will not permit the Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Senior Credit Facility) as of each fiscal quarter end to be more than (i) 3.5 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter ending prior to September 30, 2008, (ii) 3.0 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter ending on or after September 30, 2008 but prior to March 31, 2009, (iii) 2.75 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter ending on or after March 31, 2009 but prior to September 30, 2009 and (iv) 2.50 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter ending on or after September 30, 2009.
The Amendment also increased the quarterly principal payment required to be made by the Company from $500,000 to $2,000,000 and eliminated the occurrence of a material adverse change triggering an event of default.
Convertible Senior Notes Underwriting Agreement
On February 11, 2008, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the Notes Underwriting Agreement) with the subsidiary guarantors named therein (the Guarantors) and Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. (the Underwriter). The Notes Underwriting Agreement related to the issuance and sale (the Notes Offering) of $100.0 million aggregate principle amount of the Companys 5.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028 (the Notes). The Notes are guaranteed on a senior, unsecured basis by the Guarantors. Pursuant to the Notes Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriter a 13-day over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, which was exercised in full on February 12, 2008 for additional $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes.
The Notes Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and the Guarantors, and customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of both the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, obligations of the parties and termination provisions.
The net proceeds from the Notes Offering were approximately $111.1 million since the Underwriters over-allotment option was exercised in full, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated cash offering costs payable by the Company. The Company used the net proceeds from the Notes Offering to finance the acquisition of Teledrift and for general corporate purposes.

Share Lending Agreement
On February 11, 2008, and in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Common Stock Underwriting Agreement and the Notes Underwriting Agreement, the Company entered into a share lending agreement (the Share Lending Agreement) with Bear Stearns International Limited (BSIL) and the Underwriter, as agent for BSIL. Under this agreement, the Company agreed to loan to BSIL 3,800,000 shares of Common Stock during a period beginning the date the Company entered into the Share Lending Agreement and ending on February 15, 2028, or earlier, if the Company notifies BSIL in writing of its intent to terminate the Share Lending Agreement in accordance with the agreements terms or in certain other circumstances including a breach by BSIL of any of its representations and warrantees covenants or agreements under the share lending agreement, or the bankruptcy of BSIL. BSIL borrowed all 3,800,000 shares on the closing of the Stock Offering. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the borrowed shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement, but the Company did receive a loan fee of $0.0001 per share for each share of Common Stock that the Company loaned to BSIL. Under the Share Lending Agreement, BSIL is permitted to use the shares borrowed from the Company and offered in the Stock Offering only for the purpose of directly or indirectly facilitating the sale of the Notes and the hedging of the Notes by holders.
Upon the conversion of the Notes, a number of shares of Common Stock proportional to the conversion rate for such Notes must be returned to the Company. Any borrowed shares returned to the Company cannot be reborrowed.
The shares that the Company loaned to BSIL will be issued and outstanding for corporate law purposes, and accordingly, the holders of the borrowed shares will have all of the rights of a holder of the Companys outstanding shares, including the right to vote the shares on all matters submitted to a vote of the Companys shareholders and the right to receive any dividends or other distributions that the Company may pay or makes on its outstanding shares of Common Stock. However, under the Share Lending Agreement, BSIL has agreed:
| To pay, within one business day after the relevant payment date, to the Company an amount equal to any cash dividends that the Company pays on the borrowed shares; and |
| To pay or deliver to the Company, upon termination of the loan of borrowed shares, any other distribution, in liquidation or otherwise, that the Company makes on the borrowed shares. |
To the extent the borrowed shares the Company lent under the Share Lending Agreement and offered in the Stock Offering have not been sold or returned to the Company, BSIL has agreed that it will not vote any such borrowed shares of which it is the record owner. BSIL has also agreed under the Share Lending Agreement that it will not transfer or dispose of any borrowed shares, other than to its affiliates, unless such transfer or disposition is pursuant to a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act. However, investors that purchase the shares from BSIL (and any subsequent transferees of such purchasers) will be entitled to the same voting rights with respect to those shares as any other holder of Common Stock.
In view of the contractual undertakings of BSIL in the Share Lending Agreement, which have the effect of substantially eliminating the economic dilution that otherwise would result from the issuance of the borrowed shares, the Company believes that under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States currently in effect, the borrowed shares will not be considered outstanding for the purpose of computing and reporting the Companys earnings per share.
We did not receive any proceeds from the sale by BSIL of the borrowed shares. If BSIL were to become bankrupt, we would be an unsecured creditor and could receive significantly less than the value of the shares we have loaned to BSIL under the share lending agreement. In such event, we would also likely have to consider the shares that we have loaned to BSIL to be outstanding for the purpose of computing our earnings per share.

Common Stock Underwriting Agreement
Concurrently with the Notes Offering, on February 11, 2008, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the Stock Underwriting Agreement) with BSIL and the Underwriter, as agent for BSIL. The Stock Underwriting Agreement related to the issuance and delivery to BSIL (the Stock Offering) of 3,800,000 shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the Common Stock and, together with the Notes, the Securities). The Stock Underwriting Agreement contemplates that the Underwriter will sell the shares of Common Stock loaned to BSIL in accordance with the Share Lending Agreement (as defined below). Under the Stock Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriter will initially offer 3,138,200 loaned shares of Common Stock to the public at $17.50 per share in a fixed price offering and, following such offering, will offer additional loaned shares in variable price offerings from time to time on the terms and in the amounts the Underwriter deems advisable. Accordingly, the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock, but will receive a nominal lending fee of $0.0001 per share from BSIL for use of the shares. BSIL or its affiliate will receive all the proceeds from the sale of the shares.
The Stock Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, and customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, obligations of the parties and termination provisions.
The Securities were and will be sold pursuant to the Companys shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-148384), which was originally declared effective December 28, 2007 and subsequently amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 filed on February 5, 2008, and related prospectuses filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Acquisition of Teledrift
On February 15, 2008, Teledrift Acquisition, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired substantially all of the assets of Teledrift for approximately $95.2 million, subject to purchase price adjustments. The Company used the net proceeds from the Convertible Senior Notes to fund this acquisition.

Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
With participation of our CEO and CFO we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2007, as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Act. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2007.
Remediation of Prior Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, we disclosed certain material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses in our internal control related to inadequate staffing within our accounting department and not having adequate monitoring controls in place during the year. Management implemented remediation activities, outlined below, specifically to address these material weaknesses, which were completed during 2007. As a result of its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, management determined that as of December 31, 2007, the aforementioned material weaknesses no longer existed.
Below is a description of the remediation activities that were completed during 2007 to remediate the material weaknesses reported as of December 31, 2006:
| Hired additional qualified staff in key positions, including Vice President of Business Development, Director of Internal Controls, Director of Human Resources, Corporate Controller and Drilling Products Segment Chief Financial Officer, |
| Significantly expanded our accounting staff and shared services support staff, |
| Engaged qualified outside resources to augment our finance and accounting departments and to provide additional expertise in the design and testing of our internal controls, |
| Engaged qualified outside consultants to supplement our information technology resources, |
| Implemented rental tool management software to better monitor our drilling tool rental activities, |
| Implemented improved processes and procedures and instituted additional key controls to improve the overall control structure and documentation of the effectiveness of our controls, and conducted testing to verify their effectiveness, and |
| Conducted a comprehensive review of segregation of duties related to financial reporting, and remediated identified weaknesses, as appropriate. |
Management will continue to further assess and enhance its staffing and monitoring controls in 2008. Based on the actions taken and the testing and evaluation of our controls, management concluded that the material weaknesses previously reported no longer existed as of December 31, 2007.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2007, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting have been described above.
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. It should be noted, however, that because of inherent limitations any system of internal controls, however well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that financial reporting objectives will be met. In addition, 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.
Our management, including our CEO and CFO, assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). As permitted by the guidance issued by the Office of the Chief Accountant of the SEC, our assessment has excluded the acquisitions of Sooner Energy Services, Inc. (Sooner) and CAVO Drilling Motors Ltd Co. (CAVO). The acquisitions of Sooner and CAVO were completed on August 31, 2007 and November 1, 2007, respectively. These acquisitions constituted 19.5% of total assets as of December 31, 2007, and 2.1% of total revenues for the year then ended.
Based on the results of its assessment, management concluded that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.
The effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, has been audited by UHY LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that also audited the Companys financial statements. UHYs attestation report appears in Item 8 of this Report.
