NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Oil States International, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (referred to in this report as we or the Company) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) pertaining to interim financial information. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to these rules and regulations. The unaudited financial statements included in this report reflect all the adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods covered and for the financial condition of the Company at the date of the interim balance sheet. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

On May 30, 2014, we completed the spin-off of our accommodations business into a stand-alone, publicly traded corporation (Civeo Corporation, or Civeo) (the Spin-Off). The results of operations for our accommodations business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Unless indicated otherwise, the information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements relates to our continuing operations.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. If the underlying estimates and assumptions, upon which the financial statements are based, change in future periods, actual amounts may differ from those included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements included in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (the 2014 Form 10-K).

2.	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB), which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of debt issuance costs which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this guidance. For public business entities, this guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

4.	ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

Our accumulated other comprehensive loss increased from $22.1 million at December 31, 2014 to $36.6 million at March 31, 2015 primarily as a result of foreign currency exchange rate differences. Our accumulated other comprehensive loss is primarily related to fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rates compared to the U.S. dollar for the foreign operations of our reportable segments (primarily in the United Kingdom, Brazil, Thailand and Canada.) During the first quarter of 2015, the U.S. dollar strengthened significantly relative to the majority of key foreign currencies, and, as a result, our accumulated other comprehensive loss increased.

6.	BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND GOODWILL

On January 2, 2015, we acquired all of the equity of Montgomery Machine Company, Inc. (MMC). Headquartered in Houston, Texas, MMC combines machining and proprietary cladding technology and services to manufacture high-specification components for the offshore capital equipment industry on a global basis. We believe that the acquisition of MMC will strengthen our position in our offshore products segment as a supplier of subsea components with enhanced capabilities, proprietary technology and logistical advantages. Our purchase price allocation is preliminary and subject to customary post-closing adjustments, total transaction consideration was $33.9 million in cash, net of cash acquired, funded from amounts available under the Company’s credit facility. The operations of MMC have been included in our offshore products segment since the acquisition date.

Credit Facility

In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company terminated its then existing credit facility on May 28, 2014 and entered into a new $600 million senior secured revolving credit facility. The Company has an option to increase the maximum borrowings under its revolving credit facility to $750 million subject to additional lender commitments prior to its maturity on May 28, 2019. The credit facility is governed by a Credit Agreement dated as of May 28, 2014 (Credit Agreement) by and among the Company, the Lenders party thereto, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, the Swing Line Lender and an Issuing Bank, and Royal Bank of Canada, as Syndication agent, and Compass Bank, as Documentation agent. Amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.50%, or at a base rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.50%, in each case based on a ratio of the Company’s total leverage to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement). During the first quarter of 2015, our applicable margin over LIBOR was 1.50%. We must also pay a quarterly commitment fee, based on our leverage ratio, on the unused commitments under the Credit Agreement. The unused commitment fee was 0.375% for the first quarter of 2015. The Credit Agreement contains customary financial covenants and restrictions. Specifically, we must maintain an interest coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of consolidated EBITDA, to consolidated interest expense of at least 3.0 to 1.0 and our maximum leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of total debt to consolidated EBITDA of no greater than 3.25 to 1.0. Each of the factors considered in the calculations of these ratios are defined in the Credit Agreement. EBITDA and consolidated interest, exclude goodwill impairments, debt discount amortization and other non-cash charges. As of March 31, 2015, we were in compliance with our debt covenants. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of our assets and the assets of our domestic subsidiaries. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries. The credit facility also contains negative covenants that limit the Company's ability to borrow additional funds, encumber assets, pay dividends, sell assets and enter into other significant transactions. As of March 31, 2015, we had $199.7 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement and an additional $43.8 million of outstanding letters of credit, leaving $356.5 million available to be drawn under the credit facility. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $72.0 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Stock based compensation pre-tax expense from continuing operations recognized in the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 totaled $5.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively.

In February 2015, the Company granted performance based stock awards totaling 75,900 shares valued at a total of $3.2 million. These performance based awards may vest in February 2018 in an amount that will depend on the Company’s achievement of specified performance objectives. These performance based awards have a performance criteria that will be measured based upon the Company’s achievement levels of average after-tax annual return on invested capital for the three year period commencing January 1, 2015 and ending December 31, 2017.

At March 31, 2015, $50.0 million of compensation cost related to unvested stock options and restricted stock awards attributable to vesting conditions had not yet been recognized.

12.

INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense for interim periods is based on estimates of the effective tax rate for the entire fiscal year. The Company’s income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was a total tax expense of $13.3 million, or 40.6% of pretax income, compared to income tax expense of $18.1 million, or 34.3% of pretax income, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was largely the result of a $2.3 million deferred tax adjustment for certain prior period non-deductible items.

13.

SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION

In accordance with current accounting standards regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information, the Company has identified the following reportable segments: well site services and offshore products. The Company’s reportable segments represent strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different technologies and marketing strategies. Most of the businesses were initially acquired as a unit, and the management at the time of the acquisition was retained. Subsequent acquisitions have been direct extensions to our business segments. Separate business lines within the well site services segment have been disclosed to provide additional information for that segment.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of conducting our business, we become involved in litigation and other claims from private party actions, as well as judicial and administrative proceedings involving governmental authorities at the federal, state and local levels. During 2014 and early 2015, a number of lawsuits were filed by current and former employees, in Federal Court against the Company and or one of its subsidiaries, alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”). The plaintiffs’ seek damages and penalties for the Company’s alleged failure to: properly classify its field service employees as “non-exempt” under the FLSA; and pay them on an hourly basis (including overtime). The plaintiffs’ seek recovery on their own behalf, and seek certification of a class of similarly situated employees. We are investigating the allegations, but plan to vigorously defend this litigation.

In addition, we are a party to various pending or threatened claims, lawsuits and administrative proceedings seeking damages or other remedies concerning our commercial operations, products, employees and other matters, including occasional claims by individuals alleging exposure to hazardous materials as a result of our products or operations. Some of these claims relate to matters occurring prior to our acquisition of businesses, and some relate to businesses we have sold. In certain cases, we are entitled to indemnification from the sellers of businesses, and in other cases, we have indemnified the buyers of businesses from us.

Although we can give no assurance about the outcome of pending legal and administrative proceedings and the effect such outcomes may have on us, we believe that any ultimate liability resulting from the outcome of such proceedings, to the extent not otherwise provided for or covered by indemnity or insurance, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Due to the spin-off of our accommodations business on May 30, 2014 (the Spin-Off), and the sale of our tubular services business on September 6, 2013, both of which are reported as discontinued operations, our management believes that income from continuing operations is more representative of the Company’s current business environment and focus. The terms “earnings” and “loss” as used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” refer to income (loss) from continuing operations.

Spin-Off of Accommodations Business

On May 30, 2014, we completed the Spin-Off of our accommodations business into a stand-alone, publicly traded corporation (Civeo Corporation, or Civeo) through a tax-free distribution of the accommodations business to the Company’s shareholders. Results of operations for Civeo have been classified as discontinued operations in all periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Macroeconomic Environment

With the completion of the Spin-Off, we are now a technology-focused, pure-play energy services company. We provide a broad range of products and services to the oil and gas industry through our offshore products and well site services business segments. Demand for our products and services is cyclical and substantially dependent upon activity levels in the oil and gas industry, particularly our customers’ willingness to invest capital in the exploration for and development of oil and natural gas. Our customers’ capital spending programs are generally based on their outlook for near-term and long-term commodity prices, economic growth, commodity demand and estimates of resource production. As a result, demand for our products and services is largely sensitive to expected commodity prices, principally related to crude oil and natural gas.

In the past few years, crude oil prices have been volatile due to global economic uncertainties as well as inadequate regional well site transportation infrastructure. Significant downward crude oil price volatility began early in the fourth quarter of 2014 and continued to drop precipitously throughout the remainder of 2014 and into the first quarter of 2015. The material decrease in crude oil prices can primarily be attributed to significant production growth in the U.S. shale plays, strengthening of the U.S. dollar, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Companies’ (OPEC’s) hesitancy to cut production and relatively flat to modestly increasing global oil demand. The average price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil decreased from an average price of $73 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2014 to $48 per barrel at the end of the first quarter of 2015. This compares to an average price of $99 per barrel in the first quarter of 2014. The average price of Intercontinental Exchange Brent (Brent) crude decreased from an average price of $76 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2014 to $54 per barrel at the end of the first quarter of 2015. This compares to an average price of $108 per barrel in the first quarter of 2014. As of April 28, 2015, WTI crude increased from the end of the first quarter of 2015 to approximately $57 per barrel, while Brent crude increased from the end of the first quarter of 2015 to approximately $65 per barrel. This partial price recovery is largely due to expectations that the material declines in customers’ spending will lead to production declines in future periods. The price for WTI will influence our customers’ spending in U.S. shale play developments, such as the Bakken, Niobrara, Permian and Eagle Ford basins, and a number of companies have announced reductions in capital spending, including in these plays. Spending in these regions will influence the overall drilling and completion activity in the area and, therefore, the activity of our well site services segment. The price for Brent crude will influence our customers’ spending related to offshore drilling and development and, thus, the activity of our offshore products segment.

Given the historical volatility of crude prices, there remains a risk that prices could deteriorate further due to high levels of domestic crude oil production, slowing growth rates in various global regions and/or the potential for ongoing supply/demand imbalances. Conversely, if the global supply of oil and global inventory levels were to decrease due to reduced capital investment by our customers or government instability in a major oil-producing nation and energy demand continues to increase in the U.S. and countries such as China and India, a further recovery in WTI and Brent crude prices could occur. In any event, crude oil price improvements will depend upon a rebalancing of global supply and demand, the timing of which is difficult to predict. If commodity prices do not improve or if they decline further, demand for our products and services could further decline.

Prices for natural gas in the U.S. averaged $2.90 per mmBtu in the first quarter of 2015 compared to $3.78 per mmBtu in the fourth quarter of 2014 and $5.18 per mmBtu in the first quarter of 2014. Natural gas prices declined during the first quarter of 2015 largely due to increased natural gas inventories. Natural gas prices traded at approximately $2.50 per mmBtu as of April 28, 2015. Strong production and a milder winter this year compared to last year resulted in significant increases in natural gas inventories in the U.S. during the first quarter of 2015, from 55% below the 5-year average as of the end of the first quarter of 2014 to 12% below the 5-year average as of the end of the first quarter of 2015. Customer spending in the natural gas shale plays has been limited due to associated gas being produced from unconventional oil wells in North America, specifically onshore shale production resulting from the broad application of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques which continued during the first quarter of the year. As a result of natural gas production growth outpacing demand in the U.S., natural gas prices continue to be weak relative to prices experienced in 2006 through 2008 and are expected to remain below levels considered economical for new investments in numerous natural gas fields. If natural gas production growth continues to surpass demand in the U.S. and/or the supply of natural gas were to increase, whether the supply comes from conventional or unconventional production or associated natural gas production from oil wells, prices for natural gas could remain depressed for an extended period and result in fewer rigs drilling for natural gas in the near-term.

Overview

Demand for our offshore products segment is tied primarily to the long-term outlook for commodity prices. Demand for our well site services segment responds to shorter-term movements in oil and natural gas prices and, specifically, changes in North American drilling and completion activity. Other factors that can affect our business and financial results include the general global economic environment and regulatory changes in the U.S. and international markets.

Our offshore products segment provides highly engineered products and services for offshore oil and natural gas production systems and facilities, as well as certain products and services to the offshore drilling market. Sales of our offshore products and services depend primarily upon capital spending for offshore production systems and subsea pipelines, repairs and upgrades of existing offshore drilling rigs and construction of new offshore drilling rigs and vessels. In this segment, we are particularly influenced by global deepwater drilling and production spending, which are driven largely by our customers’ longer-term outlook for crude oil and natural gas prices. We believe these deepwater projects are less susceptible to short-term fluctuations in the price of crude oil and natural gas although it is possible that the recent decline in crude oil prices may cause exploration and production companies to reevaluate their future capital expenditures in regards to these deepwater projects.

Bidding and quoting activity for our offshore products segment continued during the first quarter of 2015, albeit at a slower pace. However, backlog in our offshore products segment decreased approximately 3% to $474 million at March 31, 2015 from $490 million at December 31, 2014 due to delays in award timing and contract negotiations resulting from the significant decline in commodity prices beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014. Backlog totaled $578 million at March 31, 2014.

Our well site services business segment is also affected by drilling and completion activity primarily in the U.S., including the Gulf of Mexico, and, to a lesser extent, Canada and the rest of the world. In the past few years, our industry has experienced a shift in spending from natural gas exploration and development to crude oil and liquids-rich exploration and development in the North American shale plays utilizing horizontal drilling and completion techniques. According to the most current rig count data published by Baker Hughes Incorporated, the U.S. oil rig count peaked in October 2014 at 1,609 rigs but has declined materially in recent months due to much lower crude oil prices, totaling 703 rigs as of April 24, 2015. Despite this decline, the April 24, 2015 oil rig count still comprises approximately 75% of total U.S. drilling activity. The remaining 25% of drilling activity is largely natural gas related. The U.S. natural gas-related working rig count has declined from more than 810 rigs at the beginning of 2012 to 225 rigs as of April 24, 2015, a more than 27 year low.

In our well site services business segment, we predominantly provide completion services and, to a lesser extent, land drilling services. Our completion services business provides equipment and service personnel utilized in the completion and initial production of new and recompleted wells. Activity for the completion services business is dependent primarily upon the level and complexity of drilling, completion and workover activity throughout North America. Well complexity has increased with the continuing transition to multi-well pads and the drilling of longer laterals along with the increased number of frac stages completed in horizontal wells. Demand for our drilling services is driven by land drilling activity in our primary drilling markets of the Permian Basin in West Texas, where we primarily drill oil wells, and the Rocky Mountain area in the U.S., where we drill both liquids-rich and natural gas wells.

Demand for our land drilling and completion services businesses is correlated to changes in the drilling rig count in North America, as well as changes in the total number of wells expected to be drilled, total footage expected to be drilled and the number of drilled wells that are completed. The table below sets forth a summary of North American rig activity, as measured by Baker Hughes Incorporated, for the periods indicated.

			Average Drilling Rig Count for
	As Of		Three Months Ended
	April 24,		March 31,
	2015		2015		2014
U.S. Land – Oil		679		1,052		1,393
U.S. Land – Natural gas and other		219		279		331
U.S. Offshore		34		49		56
Total U.S.		932		1,380		1,780
Canada		79		309		526
Total North America		1,011		1,689		2,306

The average North American rig count for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased 590 rigs, or 26%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014 in response to much lower crude oil prices from the levels experienced in the first quarter of 2014.

Exacerbating the steep declines in drilling activity, several of our exploration and production customers have been and are continuing to defer well completions. These deferred completions are referred to in the industry as drilled but uncompleted wells (or “DUC’s”). Motivation on the part of our customers to defer completions is generally driven by the need to preserve cash flow in a weak commodity price environment and/or the desire to produce reserves at a later date with expectations that commodity prices will improve and/or completion costs will decline. Given our wellsite services segment’s exposure to completion activity, DUC’s have an added negative impact on our results of operations.

We continue to monitor the global economy, the demand for crude oil and natural gas and the resultant impact on the capital spending plans and operations of our customers in order to plan our business. We currently expect to spend a total of approximately $160 million to $180 million for capital expenditures during 2015 to upgrade and maintain our completion services and drilling services equipment, to expand and upgrade our offshore products facilities, and to fund various other capital spending initiatives. Whether planned expenditures will actually be spent in 2015 depends on industry conditions, project approvals and schedules, vendor delivery timing and free cash flow generation. We plan to fund the capital expenditures with available cash, internally generated funds and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In our well site services segment, the majority of capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2015 were carryover from 2014. In this segment, we continue to monitor industry capacity additions and will make future capital expenditure decisions based on an evaluation of both the market outlook and industry fundamentals.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2015 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2014

We reported net income from continuing operations attributable to the Company for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 of $19.4 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, including $2.1 million of severance and other downsizing initiatives, and a higher effective tax rate driven primarily by a $2.3 million deferred tax adjustment for certain prior period non-deductible items. Excluding the first quarter 2015 significant charges and higher effective tax rate, net income from continuing operations would have been $23.1 million, or $0.45 per diluted share. These results compare to net income from continuing operations attributable to the Company for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 of $34.7 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, including $1.4 million, or $0.02 per diluted share after-tax, of transaction costs in the first quarter of 2014 included in “Other operating expense” primarily incurred in connection with the Spin-Off.

Revenues. Consolidated revenues decreased $67.8 million, or 17%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014.

Our well site services segment revenues decreased $51.2 million, or 27%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 due to decreases in both completion services and drilling services revenues. Our completion services revenues decreased $28.3 million, or 19%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014, primarily due to a 15% decrease in our revenue per completion services job and a 5% decrease in the number of service tickets completed as a result of decreased activity in the active shale basins coupled with pricing pressure. Our drilling services revenues decreased $22.9 million, or 49%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 primarily as a result of significantly decreased utilization of our drilling rigs from an average of 81% during the first quarter of 2014 to an average of 44% in the first quarter of 2015 primarily due to lower crude oil prices.

Our offshore products segment revenues decreased $16.6 million, or 8%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014. This decrease was primarily the result of decreased subsea and drilling product sales and decreased backlog coming into 2015, partially offset by increased services revenues.

Cost of Sales and Service. Our consolidated cost of sales and services decreased $34.7 million, or 13%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 as a result of decreased cost of sales at our well site services and offshore products segments of $24.1 million, or 19%, and $10.6 million, or 7%, respectively. With cost of sales and service decreasing at a slower rate than our revenues, consolidated gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 33% in the first quarter of 2014 to 30% in the first quarter of 2015 primarily due to lower margins realized in our wellsite services segment in the first quarter of 2015.

Our well site services segment cost of sales decreased $24.1 million, or 19%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 as a result of a $9.8 million, or 11%, decrease in completion services cost of sales and a $14.3 million, or 43%, decrease in drilling services cost of sales. These decreases in cost of sales, which directly correlated to the revenue decreases in these businesses, also reflect cost reduction measures implemented in response to the decrease in revenues caused by industry activity declines. Our well site services segment gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 36% in the first quarter of 2014 to 30% in the first quarter of 2015. Our completion services gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 38% in the first quarter of 2014 to 32% in the first quarter of 2015 primarily due to the decline in revenues. Our drilling services gross margin as a percentage of revenues decreased from 29% in the first quarter of 2014 to 20% in the first quarter of 2015 primarily due to decreased rig utilization and cost absorption.

Our offshore products segment cost of sales decreased $10.6 million, or 7%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 and gross margin as a percentage of revenues remained generally constant (30% in the first quarter of 2014 compared to 29% in the first quarter of 2015).

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expense decreased $5.8 million, or 14%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 largely due to decreased bad debt expense, commissions, audit and tax fees, and reduced travel and entertainment expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.8 million, or 6%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 primarily due to capital expenditures made during the previous twelve months across all segments of our Company along with increased depreciation and amortization expense related to the MMC acquisition which closed at the beginning of the first quarter of 2015.

Other Operating (Income) Expense. Other operating (income) expense moved from other operating expense of $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2014 to other operating income of $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2015 primarily due to decreases in foreign currency exchange losses and transaction costs incurred in connection with the Spin-Off.

Operating Income. Consolidated operating income decreased $25.5 million, or 43%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 primarily as a result of decreases in operating income from our wellsite services segment of $26.9 million, or 73%, resulting from decreased revenues caused by industry activity declines.

Interest Expense and Interest Income. Net interest expense decreased $6.4 million, or 80%, in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 primarily due to the Company’s repurchase of the remaining $966.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 6 1/2% and 5 1/8% Notes in the second quarter of 2014, partially offset by increased amounts outstanding under our current credit facility coupled with unused commitment fees paid to our lenders. The weighted average interest rate on the Company’s total outstanding debt decreased from 6.9% in the first quarter of 2014 to 3.3% in the first quarter of 2015 primarily due to the repurchase of the 6 1/2% and 5 1/8% Notes in the second quarter of 2014.

Income Tax Expense. The Company’s income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2015 totaled $13.3 million, or 40.6% of pretax income, compared to income tax expense of $18.1 million, or 34.3% of pretax income, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was largely the result of a $2.3 million deferred tax adjustment for certain prior period non-deductible items.

Discontinued Operations. Net income from discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2015 was $0.2 million compared to net income of $36.8 million for the first quarter of 2014. There were no revenues reported within discontinued operations during the first quarter of 2015 compared to $252.8 million for the first quarter of 2014 due to the Spin-Off in the second quarter of 2014. Operating income included within discontinued operations was $0.3 million and $54.6 million for the first quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decreases in revenue and operating income year-over-year primarily relate to the absence of accommodations operations for the first quarter of 2015 compared to 2014.

Other Comprehensive Loss. Other comprehensive loss increased $14.8 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 primarily as a result of fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rates compared to the U.S. dollar for the foreign operations of our reportable segments (primarily in the United Kingdom, Brazil, Thailand and Canada.)

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Other Matters

Our primary liquidity needs are to fund operating and capital expenditures, which in the past have included expanding and upgrading our offshore products manufacturing facilities and equipment, replacing and increasing completion services assets, funding new product development and general working capital needs. In addition, capital has been used to repay debt, fund our stock repurchase program and fund strategic business acquisitions. Our primary sources of funds have been cash flow from operations, proceeds from borrowings under our credit facilities and capital markets transactions.

Operating Activities

Cash totaling $114.4 million was provided by continuing operations during the first quarter of 2015 compared to $21.9 million provided by continuing operations during the first quarter of 2014. During the first quarter of 2015, $51.8 million was provided from net working capital reductions, primarily due to decreases in receivables. During the first quarter of 2014, $42.8 million was used to fund working capital, primarily due to decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and increases in inventory in our offshore products segment.

Investing Activities

Cash was used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 in the amount of $71.6 million compared to $38.3 million used in continuing operations during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Capital expenditures for continuing operations totaled $38.3 million and $39.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Capital expenditures in both years consisted principally of purchases of completion services equipment, upgrading and maintenance of our drilling services equipment, expansion and upgrading of our offshore products segment facilities and various other capital spending initiatives.

On January 2, 2015, we acquired all of the equity of MMC. Subject to customary post-closing adjustments, total transaction consideration was $33.9 million in cash, net of cash acquired, funded from amounts available under the Company’s credit facility.

We currently expect to spend a total of approximately $160 million to $180 million for capital expenditures during 2015 to upgrade and maintain our completion services and drilling services equipment, to expand and upgrade our offshore products facilities, and to fund various other capital spending initiatives. Whether planned expenditures will actually be spent in 2015 depends on industry conditions, project approvals and schedules, vendor delivery timing and free flow cash generation. We plan to fund these capital expenditures with available cash, internally generated funds and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The foregoing capital expenditure forecast does not include any funds for strategic acquisitions, which the Company could pursue depending on the economic environment in our industry and the availability of transactions at prices deemed to be attractive to the Company.

At March 31, 2015, we had cash totaling $70.7 million held by foreign subsidiaries, primarily in the United Kingdom and Singapore. Our intent is to utilize at least a portion of these cash balances for future investment outside the United States. Approximately $24 million of cash held by foreign subsidiaries can be repatriated without triggering a tax consequence.

Financing Activities

Net cash of $23.6 million was used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015, primarily as a result of repurchases of our common stock totaling $77.4 million partially offset by borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Net cash of $141.1 million was used in continuing financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2014, primarily as a result of repurchases of our common stock.

We believe that cash on hand, cash flow from operations and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs in the coming twelve months. If our plans or assumptions change, or are inaccurate, or if we make further acquisitions, we may need to raise additional capital. Acquisitions have been, and our management believes acquisitions will continue to be, a key element of our business strategy. The timing, size or success of any acquisition effort and the associated potential capital commitments are unpredictable and uncertain. We may seek to fund all or part of any such efforts with proceeds from debt and/or equity issuances. Our ability to obtain capital for additional projects to implement our growth strategy over the longer term will depend upon our future operating performance, financial condition and, more broadly, on the availability of equity and debt financing. Capital availability will be affected by prevailing conditions in our industry, the global economy, the global financial markets and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, such additional debt service requirements could be based on higher interest rates and shorter maturities and could impose a significant burden on our results of operations and financial condition, and the issuance of additional equity securities could result in significant dilution to stockholders.

Stock Repurchase Program. On September 6, 2013, the Company announced an increase in its Board-authorized Company stock repurchase program from $200 million to $500 million providing for the repurchase of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share. The Board of Directors’ authorization is limited in duration and was set to expire on September 1, 2014. On August 20, 2014, the Board of Directors authorized an extension of the authorized Company stock repurchase program, which is now set to expire on September 1, 2015. Subject to applicable securities laws, such purchases will be at such times and in such amounts as the Company deems appropriate. As of March 31, 2015, a total of $428.5 million of our stock (6,060,772 shares) had been repurchased under this program. The amount remaining under our current share repurchase authorization as of March 31, 2015 was approximately $71.5 million.

Credit Facilities. In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company terminated its then existing bank credit facility on May 28, 2014 and entered into a new $600 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the revolving credit facility). The Company has an option to increase the maximum borrowings under the new facility to $750 million contingent upon additional lender commitments prior to its maturity. The facility matures on May 28, 2019. The credit facility is governed by a Credit Agreement dated as of May 28, 2014 (the Credit Agreement) by and among the Company, the Lenders party thereto, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, the Swing Line Lender and an Issuing Bank, and Royal Bank of Canada, as Syndication agent, and Compass Bank, as Documentation agent. Amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.50%, or at a base rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.50%, in each case based on a ratio of the Company’s total leverage to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement). During the first quarter of 2015, our applicable margin over LIBOR was 1.50%. We must also pay a quarterly commitment fee, based on our leverage ratio, on the unused commitments under the Credit Agreement. The unused commitment fee was 0.375% during the first quarter of 2015. The commitment fee represented 19.9% of our first quarter 2015 consolidated interest expense.

The Credit Agreement contains customary financial covenants and restrictions. Specifically, we must maintain an interest coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of consolidated EBITDA, to consolidated interest expense of at least 3.0 to 1.0 and a maximum leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of total debt to consolidated EBITDA, of no greater than 3.25 to 1.0. Each of the factors considered in the calculations of these ratios are defined in the Credit Agreement. EBITDA and consolidated interest as defined, exclude goodwill impairments, debt discount amortization and other non-cash charges. As of March 31, 2015, we were in compliance with our debt covenants and expect to continue to be in compliance during the remainder of 2015. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of our assets and the assets of our domestic subsidiaries. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries.

As of March 31, 2015, we had $199.7 million in borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement and $43.8 million of outstanding letters of credit, leaving $356.5 million available to be drawn under the revolving credit facility.

Our total debt represented 14.0% of our combined total debt and stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2015 compared to 9.9% at December 31, 2014 and 27.4% at March 31, 2014.

Critical Accounting Policies

For a discussion of the critical accounting policies and estimates that we use in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2014 Form 10-K. These estimates require significant judgments, assumptions and estimates. We have discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these critical accounting policies and estimates with the audit committee of our board of directors. There have been no material changes to the judgments, assumptions and estimates, upon which our critical accounting estimates are based.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2015, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk refers to the potential losses arising from changes in interest rates, foreign currency fluctuations and exchange rates, equity prices and commodity prices including the correlation among these factors and their volatility.

Our principal market risks are our exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We enter into derivative instruments only to the extent considered necessary to meet risk management objectives and do not use derivative contracts for speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We have credit facilities that are subject to the risk of higher interest charges associated with increases in interest rates. As of March 31, 2015, we had floating-rate obligations totaling approximately $199.7 million drawn under our credit facility. These floating-rate obligations expose us to the risk of increased interest expense in the event of increases in short-term interest rates. If the floating interest rates increased by 1% from March 31, 2015 levels, our consolidated interest expense would increase by a total of approximately $2.0 million annually.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Our operations are conducted in various countries around the world and we receive revenue from these operations in a number of different currencies. As such, our earnings are subject to movements in foreign currency exchange rates when transactions are denominated in (i) currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which is our functional currency, or (ii) the functional currency of our subsidiaries, which is not necessarily the U.S. dollar. In order to mitigate the effects of exchange rate risks in areas outside the U.S. (primarily in our offshore products segment), we generally pay a portion of our expenses in local currencies and a substantial portion of our contracts provide for collections from customers in U.S. dollars. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, our reported foreign exchange gains were $1.6 million and are included in “Other operating (income) expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Income. In order to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates, we may enter into foreign exchange agreements with financial institutions. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had outstanding foreign currency forward purchase contracts with notional amounts of $5.4 million related to expected cash flows denominated in Euros. As a result of these contracts, we recorded other comprehensive losses of less than $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2015 at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act), or in other factors, which have materially affected our internal control over financial reporting, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

Although we can give no assurance about the outcome of pending legal and administrative proceedings and the effect such outcomes may have on us, we believe that any ultimate liability resulting from the outcome of such proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

“Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2014 Form 10-K includes a detailed discussion of our risk factors. The risks described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our 2014 Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes to our risk factors as set forth in our 2014 Form 10-K.
