Basis of Presentation
Subsequent Events — In preparing the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we have reviewed events that have occurred after June 30, 2021, through the filing of this Form 10-Q, for inclusion as necessary.
On July 5, 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Patterson”), Crescent Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Patterson (“Merger Sub Inc.”), and Crescent Ranch Second Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Patterson (“Merger Sub LLC”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub Inc. will merge with and into Pioneer Energy Services Corp. (“Pioneer”), with Pioneer continuing as the surviving entity (the “Surviving Corporation”) (the “First Company Merger”) and (ii) immediately following the First Company Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub LLC, with Merger Sub LLC continuing as the surviving entity (the “Surviving Company”) (the “Second Company Merger” and, together with the First Company Merger, the “Mergers”), which is described in more detail in Note 2, Subsequent Events.
Basis of PresentationThe accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pioneer Energy Services Corp. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. We suggest that you read these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements together with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as amended. 2020.
As described below, as a result of the application of fresh start accountingin Note 2, Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11, and the effects of the implementation of our Plan of Reorganization (as defined below), the consolidated financial statements after the Effective Date (as defined below) are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements on or before that date. See Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting, to our consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for additional information.
Chapter 11 Cases — Onthe year ended December 31, 2020, on March 1, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), Pioneer and certain of our domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed
9


voluntary petitions (the “Bankruptcy Petitions”) for reorganization under title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On May 11, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) that was filed with the Bankruptcy Court on March 2, 2020, and on May 29, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the conditions to effectiveness of the plan were satisfied and we emerged from Chapter 11. See Note 2, Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11,for more information.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if we are a going concern and in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 852, Reorganizations (ASC Topic 852). Upon our emergence from bankruptcy,Chapter 11, we adopted fresh start accounting in accordance
9


with ASCAccounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 852 and became a new entity for financial reporting purposes. As a result, the condensed consolidated financial statements after the Effective Date are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements on or before that date as indicated by the “black line” division in the financial statements and footnote tables, which emphasizes the lack of comparability between amounts presented. References to “Successor” relate to our financial position and results of operations after the Effective Date. References to “Predecessor” refer to our financial position and results of operations on or before the Effective Date.
We evaluated the events between May 29, 2020 and May 31, 2020 and concluded that the use of an accounting convenience date of May 31, 2020 (the “Fresh Start Reporting Date”) would not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. As such, the application of fresh start accounting was reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2020 and related fresh start accounting adjustments were included in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the five months ended May 31, 2020. See Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting, for additional information.
Use of Estimates — In preparing the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we make various estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities we report as of the dates of the balance sheets and income and expenses we report for the periods shown in the income statements and statements of cash flows. Our actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates affecting our financial results, including those that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term, relate to our application of fresh start accounting, our estimates of certain variable revenues and amortization periods of certain deferred revenues and costs associated with drilling daywork contracts, our estimates of projected cash flows and fair values for impairment evaluations, our estimate of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and our estimate of the liability relating to the self-insurance portion of our health and workers’ compensation insurance. For information about our use of estimates relating to fresh start accounting, see Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting.
Subsequent Events — In preparing the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we have reviewed events that have occurred after September 30, 2020, through the filing of this Form 10-Q, for inclusion as necessary.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Changes to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) are established by the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) to the FASB ASC. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Additionally, because we have securities registered under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, we consider the applicability and impact of releases issued by the Securities & Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Other than the ASUthose listed below, we have determined that there are currently no new or recently adopted ASUs or SEC releases which we believe will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models available for convertible debt instruments and preferred stock. Additionally, this ASU improves the consistency of EPS calculations by requiring entities to apply one method, the if-converted method, to all convertible instruments in diluted earnings-per-share calculations. As a smaller reporting company, thisThis ASU will be effective for us on January 1, 2024,2022, however, early adoption is permitted on January 1, 2021. We are currently evaluating the effect that the ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.
Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting and disclosure requirements for income taxes by, among other changes, removing certain exceptions and by clarifying certain aspects of the current accounting guidance. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021, and it did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Additional Detail of Account Balances

On February 28, 2020, we received commitments pursuant to the Commitment Letter from PNC Bank, N.A. for a $75 million asset-based revolving loan debtor-in-possession financing facility (the “DIP Facility”) and a $75 million asset-based revolving exit financing facility. On March 3, 2020, with the approvalterms of the Bankruptcy Court, we entered into the DIP Facility and used the proceeds thereunder to refinance all outstanding letters of credit under the Prepetition ABL Facility in connection with the termination of the Prepetition ABL Facility andMerger Agreement. Pioneer will also be obligated to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Chapter 11 proceedings and transaction and professional fees related thereto.
The DIP Facility provided financing withBreak-Up Fee if (i) an acquisition proposal of Pioneer is made by a 5-month maturity, bearing interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points per annum, and contained customary covenants and events of default.

3.    Fresh Start Accounting
Fresh Start Accountingthereafter Pioneer enters into an alternative transaction.
In connection with our emergence from bankruptcy and in accordance with ASC Topic 852, we qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Effective Date. We were required to adopt fresh start accounting because (i) theMerger Agreement, certain holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor Company received less than 50%Common stock and Convertible Notes holding approximately 88% of the voting sharespower of the Successor Company,Pioneer and (ii) the reorganization value of our assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.
In accordance with ASC Topic 852, with the application of fresh start accounting, we allocated the reorganization value to our individual assets and liabilities (except for deferred income taxes) based on their estimated fair values in conformity with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The amount of deferred taxes was determined in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. The Effective Date fair values of our assets and liabilities differed materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheets.
Reorganization Value
The reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor Company’s total assets before considering liabilities and is intended to approximate the amount a willing buyer would pay for the Company’s assets immediately after restructuring. The reorganization value was derived from the enterprise value, which represents the estimated fair value of an entity’s long-term debt and equity. As set forth in the Plan, the enterprise value of the Successor Company was estimated to be in the range of $275 million to $335 million with a midpoint of $305 million. However, the third-party valuation advisor engaged to assist in determining the enterprise value subsequently revised this range to $249 million to $303 million, with a midpoint of $276 million, which was filed with the Bankruptcy Court in order to update the initial assumptions for current information. Based on the estimates and assumptions discussed below, we estimated the enterprise value to be the midpoint of the range of estimated enterprise value of $276 million.

Plus: non-current liabilities excluding long-term debt6,626 
Less: debt issuance costs on Successor debt(6,394)
Reorganization value of Successor assets$352,623 
With the assistance of our financial advisors, we determined the enterprise and corresponding equity value of the Successor using various valuation methods, including (i) discounted cash flow analysis, (ii) comparable company analysis and (iii) precedent transaction analysis. The use of each approach provides corroboration for the other approaches.
In order to estimate the enterprise value using the discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis approach, management’s estimated future cash flow projections through 2024, plus a terminal value calculated assuming a perpetuity growth rate and applying a multiple to the terminal year’s projected earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), were discounted to an assumed present value using our estimated weighted average cost of capital (WACC), which represents the internal rate of return (IRR).
The comparable company analysis provides an estimate of the company’s value relative to other publicly traded companies with similar operating and financial characteristics, by which a range of EBITDA multiples of the comparable companies was then applied to management’s projected EBITDA to derive an estimated enterprise value.
Precedent transaction analysis provides an estimate of enterprise value based on recent sale transactions of similar companies, by deriving the implied EBITDA multiple of those transactions, based on sales prices, which was then applied to management’s projected EBITDA.
Certain inputs and assumptions used to estimate the enterprise value are considered significant unobservable inputs which are classified as Level 3 inputs under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, including management’s estimated future cash flow projections. All estimates, assumptions, valuations and financial projections, including the fair value adjustments, the enterprise value and equity value projections, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties beyond our control, and accordingly, our actual results could vary materially.
Valuation Process
The fair values of our principal assets (including inventory, drilling and production services equipment, land and buildings, and intangible assets), and our liabilities were estimated with the assistance of third-party valuation advisors. The cost, income and market approaches were utilized in estimating these fair values. As more than one approach was used in our valuation analysis, the various approaches were reconciled to determine a final value conclusion. Further, economic obsolescence was considered in determining the fair value of our inventory and property and equipment. The fair value was allocated to our individual assets and liabilities as follows:
Inventory Inventory valued consisted of spare parts and consumables that support our international, coiled tubing and wireline operations. The fair value of the international spare parts and coiled tubing inventory was determined using the
14


indirect method of the cost approach, with adjustments for economic obsolescence. For wireline inventory, the cost basis was adjusted to account for the changes in cost between the acquisition date and the valuation date.
Property and Equipment — Property and equipment valued consisted of leasehold improvements, machinery and equipment, transportation equipment, office furniture, fixtures and equipment, computers and software, construction-in-progress and assets held for sale. The fair value of our property and equipment was estimated using the cost approach and market approach, while the income approach was considered in the context of the economic obsolescence analysis which was applied to certain assets. As a part of the valuation process, the third-party advisors performed site inspections and utilized internal data to identify and value assets.
Land and Buildings — Land and buildings valued consisted of four facilities and the underlying land, for which the fair value was estimated using the cost approach and sales comparison (market) approach, with adjustments for economic obsolescence to certain assets.
Intangible Assets — Intangible assets valued consisted of trademark and tradename, for which the fair value was estimated using the relief-from-royalty income approach. As a part of the valuation process, the third-party advisors considered overall revenue and cash flow projections and guidance on long-term growth rates. Additionally, above or below market leases and contracts and relationships were examined and determined to have no fair value. The value of our intangible assets will be amortized using the straight-line method over the economic useful life, which we estimated to be ten years.
Senior Secured Notes — The fair value100% of the Senior Secured Notes was estimated by applying a stochastic interest rate model implemented within a binomial lattice framework that considers(collectively, the call provisions associated“Supporting Holders”) have entered into voting and support agreements with Patterson pursuant to which, among other things, the notesSupporting Holders have agreed, subject to certain limitations and captures the decisionexceptions, not to transfer any of prepaying the notestheir Common stock or holding to maturity by evaluating the optimal decision at each time step constructed within the lattice model.
Convertible Notes — The fair value(collectively, the “Covered Securities”) until the earlier of the Convertible Notes was estimateddate the Merger Agreement is terminated by applyingthe Effective Time, to vote such Covered Securities in a binomial lattice model and a recovery rate adjustment model, which provides a quantitative method for estimatingmanner to facilitate the yield for a debt or debt-like security based on an observed market yield for a security of a different seniority. Certain inputs and assumptions used to derive the fair valueconsummation of the Convertible Notes are considered significant unobservable inputs which are classified as Level 3 inputs under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, including the company’s stock price, the volatility and the market yield related to the Convertible Notes.

4.3.    Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Our production services business segments earn revenues for well servicing and wireline services pursuant to master services agreements based on purchase orders or other contractual arrangements with the client. Production services jobs are generally short-term (ranging in duration from several hours to less than 30 days) and are charged at current market rates for the labor, equipment and materials necessary to complete the job. Production services jobs are varied in nature but typically represent a single performance obligation, either for a particular job, a series of distinct jobs, or a period of time during which we stand ready to provide services as our client needs them. Revenue is recognized for these services over time, as the services are performed.
Our drilling services business segments earn revenues by drilling oil and gas wells for our clients under daywork contracts. Daywork contracts are comprehensive agreements under which we provide a comprehensive service offering, including the drilling rig, crew, supplies, and most of the ancillary equipment necessary to operate the rig. Contract modifications that extend the term of a dayrate contract are generally accounted for prospectively as a separate dayrate contract. We account for our services provided under daywork contracts as a single performance obligation comprised of a series of distinct time increments which are satisfied over time. Accordingly, dayrate revenues are recognized in the period during which the services are performed.
With most drilling contracts, we also receive payments contractually designated for the mobilization and demobilization of drilling rigs and other equipment to and from the client’s drill site. Revenues associated with the mobilization and demobilization of our drilling rigs to and from the client’s drill site do not relate to a distinct good or service and are recognized ratably over the related contract term.
The amount of demobilization revenue that we ultimately collect is dependent upon the specific contractual terms, most of which include provisions for reduced (or no) payment for demobilization when, among other things, the contract is renewed or extended with the same client, or when the rig is subsequently contracted with another client prior to the termination of the current contract. Since revenues associated with demobilization activity are typically variable, at each period end, they are estimated at the most likely amount, and constrained when the likelihood of a significant reversal is probable. Any change in the expected amount of demobilization revenue is accounted for with the net cumulative impact of the change in estimate recognized in the period during which the revenue estimate is revised.
The upfront costs that we incur to mobilize the drilling rig to our client’s initial drilling site are capitalized and recognized ratably over the term of the related contract, including any contracted renewal or extension periods, which is our estimate of the period during which we expect to benefit from the cost of mobilizing the rig. Costs associated with the final demobilization at the end of the contract term are expensed when incurred, when the demobilization activity is performed.
From time to time, we may receive fees from our clients for capital improvements to our rigs to meet our client’s requirements. Such revenues are not considered to be distinct within the terms of the contract and are therefore allocated to the overall performance obligation, satisfied over the term of the contract. We record deferred revenue for such payments and recognize them ratably as revenue over the initial term of the related drilling contract.
Contract Asset and Liability Balances and Contract Cost Assets
Contract asset and contract liability balances relate to demobilization and mobilization revenues, respectively. Demobilization revenue that we expect to receive is recognized ratably over the related contract term, but invoiced upon completion of the demobilization activity. Mobilization revenue, which is typically collected upon the completion of the initial mobilization activity, is deferred and recognized ratably over the related contract term. Contract asset and liability balances are netted at
13


the contract level, with the net current and noncurrent portions separately classified in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the resulting contract liabilities are referred to herein as “deferred revenues.” When demobilization revenues are recognized prior to the activity being performed, they are not yet billable, and the resulting contract assets are included in our other current assets in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Contract cost assets represent the costs associated with the initial mobilization required in order to fulfill the contract, which are deferred and recognized ratably over the period during which we expect to benefit from the mobilization, or the period during which we expect to satisfy the performance obligations of the related contract. Contract cost assets are presented as either current or noncurrent, according to the duration of the original contract to which it relates, and referred to herein as “deferred costs.”

5.4.    Property and Equipment
Capital Expenditures — Capital additions during 2020 primarily related to routine expenditures that are necessary to maintain our fleets, while capital additions during 2019 also included the completion of construction on our 17th AC drilling rig which we deployed in March 2019, and various vehicle and ancillary equipment purchases and upgrades.
Assets Held for Sale — In April 2020, we closed our coiled tubing services business and placed all of our coiled tubing services assets as held for sale at June 30, 2020, which represents $3.8$1.3 million of our total assets held for sale at SeptemberJune 30, 2020.2021. We have various other equipment designated as held for sale which is carried at fair value. When the net carrying value of an asset designated as held for sale exceeds its estimated fair value, which we estimate based on expected sales prices, which are classified as Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, we recognize the difference as an impairment charge.
Impairments — In accordance with ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, we monitor all indicators of potential impairments. We evaluate for potential impairment of long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present, which may include, among other things, significant adverse changes in industry trends (including revenue rates, utilization rates, oil and natural gas market prices, and industry rig counts). In performing an impairment evaluation, we estimate the future undiscounted net cash flows from the use and eventual disposition of the assets grouped at the lowest level that independent cash flows can be identified. We perform an impairment evaluation and estimate future undiscounted cash flows for each of our asset groups separately, which are our domestic drilling services, international drilling services, well servicing and wireline services segments, and, prior to being placed as held for sale, our coiled tubing services segment. If the sum of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset group, then we determine the fair value of the asset group, and the amount of an impairment charge would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the assets.
Due to the significant decline in industry conditions, commodity prices, and projected utilization of equipment, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our industry, our projected cash flows declined during the first quarter of 2020, and we performed recoverability testing on all our reporting units. As a result of this analysis, we incurred impairment charges of $16.4
14


$16.4 million to reduce the carrying values of our coiled tubing assets to their estimated fair values during the three months ended March 31, 2020. For all our other reporting units, excluding coiled tubing, we determined that the sum of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows were in excess of the carrying amounts and that no impairment
20


existed for these reporting units at March 31, 2020. We continuedcontinue to monitor potential indicators of impairment through September 30, 2020 and concluded that none of our reporting units are currently at risk of impairment.impairment at June 30, 2021.
The assumptions we use in the evaluation for impairment are inherently uncertain and require management judgment. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates used in our impairment analysis are reasonable, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact the analysis and resulting conclusions. The most significant inputs used in our impairment analysis include the projected utilization and pricing of our services, as well as the estimated proceeds upon any future sale or disposal of the assets, all of which are classified as Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. If commodity prices decrease or remain at current levels for an extended period of time, or if the demand for any of our services decreases below what we are currently projecting, our estimated cash flows may decrease and our estimates of the fair value of certain assets may decrease as well. If any of the foregoing were to occur, we could incur impairment charges on the related assets.
6.5.     Leases
As a drilling and production services provider, we provide the drilling rigs and production services equipment which are necessary to fulfill our performance obligations and which are considered leases under ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, (together with its amendments, herein referred to as “ASC Topic 842”). However, ASU No. 2018-11, Leases: Targeted Improvements, allows lessors to (i) combine the lease and non-lease components of revenues when the revenue recognition pattern is the same and when the lease component, when accounted for separately, would be considered an operating lease, and (ii) account for the combined lease and non-lease components under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when the non-lease component is the predominant element of the combined component. We elected to apply this expedient and therefore recognize our revenues (both lease and service components) under ASC Topic 606, and present them as one revenue stream in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As a lessee, we lease our corporate office headquarters in San Antonio, Texas, and we conduct our business operations through 1514 other regional offices located throughout the United States and internationally in Colombia. These operating locations typically include regional offices, storage and maintenance yards and employee housing sufficient to support our operations in the area. We lease most of these properties under non-cancelable term and month-to-month operating leases, many of which contain renewal options that can extend the lease term from one year to five years and some of which contain escalation clauses. We also lease various items of supplemental equipment, typically under cancelable short-term and very short term (less than 30 days) leases. Due to the nature of our business, any option to renew these short-term leases, and the options to extend certain of our long-term real estate leases, are generally not considered reasonably certain to be exercised. Therefore, the periods covered by such optional periods are not included in the determination of the term of the lease, and the lease payments during these periods are similarly excluded from the calculation of operating lease asset and lease liability balances.

7.6.     Debt
The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that accelerated our obligations under our Prepetition Senior Notes, the Prepetition ABL Facility, and Term Loan. Under the Bankruptcy Code, holders of our Prepetition Senior Notes and the lenders under our Term Loan and the Prepetition ABL Facility were stayed from taking any action against us as a result of this event of default.
On the Effective Date, all applicable agreements governing the obligations under the Term Loan, Prepetition Senior Notes and Prepetition ABL Facility were terminated. The Term Loan and Prepetition ABL Facility were paid in full and all outstanding obligations under the Prepetition Senior Notes were canceled in exchange for 94.25% of the pro forma common equity. For additional information concerning our bankruptcy proceedings under Chapter 11, see Note 2, Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11.
As of September 30, 2020, the principal amount of our outstanding debt obligations, including those issued in payment of in-kind interest, were as follows (amounts in thousands):

As described further in Note 2, Subsequent Events, upon consummation of the Mergers with Patterson, all our outstanding debt obligations will be retired.
ABL Credit Facility
On the Effective Date,Upon our emergence from Chapter 11, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, we entered into a senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement in an aggregate amount of $75 million (the “ABL Credit Facility”) among us and substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries as borrowers (the “Borrowers”), the lenders party thereto and PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent, and on August 7, 2020, we entered into a First Amendment to the ABL Credit Facility (together, herein referred to as the “ABL Credit Facility”) which, among other things, reduced the maximum amount of the revolving credit agreement to $40 million.
Among other things, proceeds of loans under the ABL Credit Facility may be used to pay fees and expenses associated with the ABL Credit Facility and finance ongoing working capital and general corporate needs.
22


The maturity date of loans made under the ABL Credit Facility is the earliest of 90 days prior to maturity of the Senior Secured Notes or the Convertible Notes (both of which are described further below) and May 29, 2025. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate of (i) the LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 0%) plus an applicable margin of 375 basis points per annum or (ii) the base rate plus an applicable margin of 275 basis points per annum.
The ABL Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Borrowers and is secured by a first lien on the Borrowers’ accounts receivable and inventory, and the cash proceeds thereof, and a second lien on substantially all of the other assets and properties of the Borrowers.
The ABL Credit Facility limits our annual capital expenditures to 125% of the budget set forth in the projections for any fiscal year and provides that if our availability plus pledged cash of up to $3 million falls below $6 million (15% of the maximum revolver amount), we will be required to comply with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, all of which is defined in the ABL Credit Facility. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, we had 0 borrowings and approximately $8.8$7.3 million in outstanding letters of credit under the ABL Credit Facility and subject to the availability requirements in the ABL Credit

Facility, based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, availability under the ABL Credit Facility was $10.7$17.2 million, which our access to would be limited bysubject to (i) our requirement to maintain 15% available or comply with a fixed charge coverage ratio, as described above and (ii) the requirement to maintain availability of at least $4.0 million, which may include up to $2.0 million of pledged cash.
Convertible Notes
We entered into an indenture dated as of the Effective Date,May 29, 2020 among the Company and Wilmington Trust, N.A., as trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture to the Convertible Notes Indenture dated May 11, 2021, (the “Convertible Notes Indenture”), and issued $129.8 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior unsecured pay-in-kind notes due 2025 thereunder (the “Convertible Notes”). We received net issuance proceeds of $120.2 million, which was net of the $9.6 million Backstop Commitment Premium.Premium, which is described further below.
The Convertible Notes are general unsecured obligations which will mature on November 15, 2025, unless earlier accelerated, redeemed, converted or repurchased, and bear interest at a fixed rate of 5% per annum, which will be payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 in-kind in the form of an increase to the principal amount. The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time into shares of our common stock and will convert mandatorily into our common stock at maturity; provided, however, that if the value of our common stock otherwise deliverable in connection with a mandatory conversion of a Convertible Note on the maturity date would be less than the principal amount of such Convertible Note plus accrued and unpaid interest, then the Convertible Note will instead convert into an amount of cash equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest. The initial conversion rate is 75 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which in aggregate represents 9,732,825 shares of common stock and an initial conversion price of $13.33 per share. The conversion rate is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
If we undergo a “fundamental change” as defined in the Convertible Notes Indenture, subject to certain conditions, holders may require us to repurchase all or any portion of their Convertible Notes for cash at an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In the case of certain fundamental change events that constitute merger events (as defined in the Convertible Notes Indenture), we have a superseding right to cause the mandatory conversion of all or part of the Convertible Notes into a number of shares of common stock, per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, equal to the then-current conversion rate or the cash value of such number of shares of common stock (but not less than the principal amount).stock.
Holders of Convertible Notes are entitled to vote on all matters on which holders of our common stock generally are entitled to vote (or, if any, to take action by written consent of the holders of our common stock), voting together as a single class together with the shares of our common stock and not as a separate class, on an as-converted basis, at any annual or special meeting of holders of our common stock and each holder is entitled to such number of votes as such holder would receive on an as-converted basis on the record date for such vote.
The Convertible Notes Indenture contains customary events of default and covenants that limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness and create liens and enter into mergers or consolidations.
23


Because the Convertible Notes contain an embedded conversion option whereby they, or a portion of them, may be settled in cash, we have separately accounted for the liability and equity components of the Convertible Notes in accordance with the accounting requirements for convertible debt instruments set forth in ASC Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The initial fair value of the Convertible Notes was estimated and allocated, along with related debt issuance costs, to the liability and equity components in accordance with the application of Fresh Start Accounting as described further in Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting. In order to allocateand the initial fair value, we first calculatedrequirements of ASC Topic 470. We treat the valueissuance of the liability component by estimating the fair valuenew Convertible Notes for the debtpayment of in-kind interest as an issuance of a new instrument that retains the original economics associated with the conversion option at inception, and therefore, the Convertible Notes issued in payment of in-kind interest are accounted for with their separate equity and liability components that are proportionally the same as the original issuance.
Backstop Commitment Agreement
Prior to filing the Plan, we entered into a separate backstop commitment agreement with some of our previous creditors as well as certain members of our senior management (the “Backstop Commitment Agreement”), pursuant to which these parties committed to backstop the issuance of new Convertible Notes upon our emergence from Chapter 11. As consideration
17


for this commitment, we committed to make an aggregate payment of $9.6 million in the form of additional new convertible bonds, or in cash if it did not containthe Backstop Commitment Agreement was terminated under certain circumstances as forth therein. As a conversion feature.result, we incurred a liability and expense at the time we entered into the Backstop Commitment Agreement for the aggregate amount of $9.6 million (the “Commitment Premium”) which was recognized in our Predecessor condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The amount by whichCommitment Premium was settled in conjunction with our emergence from Chapter 11 and the initial fair valueissuance of the Convertible Notes exceeded the estimated fair value of the liability component represented the estimated fair value of the equity component. We also allocated the debt issuance costs incurred to the liability and equity components, for which the portion attributable to the equity component is netted with the respective equity component in additional paid-in capital.

Senior Secured Notes
We entered into an indenture dated as of the Effective Date,May 29, 2020 among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto and Wilmington Trust, N.A., as trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated March 3, 2021, and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated May 11, 2021 (the “Senior Secured Notes Indenture”), and issued $78.1 million aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior secured notes due 2025 (the “Senior Secured Notes”) thereunder. The Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by substantially all of our existing domestic subsidiaries, thatwhich also guarantee our obligations under the ABL Credit Facility, (the “Guarantors”) on a full and unconditional basis and are secured by a second lien on the accounts receivable and inventory and a first lien on substantially all of the other assets and properties (including the cash proceeds thereof) of the Company and the Guarantors. We received net issuance proceeds of $75 million, which was net of the original issue discount of $3.1 million.
The Senior Secured Notes will mature on May 15, 2025 and accrue interest will accrue at the rate of LIBOR plus 9.5% per annum until May 15, 2024, after which the rate will be LIBOR plus 10.50% per annum, and in both cases with a LIBOR rate floor of 1.5%, and payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th of each February, 15, May, 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on August 15, 2020. With respect to anyyear. The interest paymentpayments which were due on or prior to May 29, 2021 were paid 50% of the interest will be payable in cash and 50% of the interest will bewas paid in-kind in the form of an increase to the principal amount; however, a majority in interest of the holders of the Senior Secured Notes may elect to have 100% of the interest due on or prior to May 29, 2021 payable in-kind. For all interest periods commencing on or after May 15, 2024, the interest rate for the Senior Secured Notes will be a rate equal to LIBOR plus 10.50%, with a LIBOR rate floor of 1.5%.amount.
We may redeem all or part of the Senior Secured Notes on or after June 1, 2021 at redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) equal to (i) 104% for the twelve-month period beginning on June 1, 2021; (ii) 102% for the twelve-month period beginning on June 1, 2022; (iii) 101% for the twelve-month period beginning on June 1, 2023 and (iv) 100% for the twelve-month period beginning June 1, 2024 and at any time thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest at the redemption date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a change of control (as defined in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture) occurs prior to June 1, 2022, we may elect to purchase all remaining outstanding Senior Secured Notes not tendered to us as described below at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the applicable redemption date. If a change of control (as defined in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture) occurs, holders of the Senior Secured Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase all or any part of their Senior Secured Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

The Senior Secured Notes Indenture contains a minimum asset coverage ratio of 1.5 to 1.0 as of any June 30 or December 31, beginning December 31, 2020. The Senior Secured Notes Indenture provides for certain customary events of default and contains covenants that limit, among other things, our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries, to incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay dividends or distributions on capital stock or redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; repay junior debt; sell stock of our subsidiaries; transfer or sell assets; enter into sale and lease back transactions; create liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; and enter into mergers or consolidations.

8.7.     Taxes
As described in Note 2, EmergenceUpon emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11,, in accordance with the Plan, our Prepetition Senior Notes were exchanged for shares of our new common stock. Absent an exception, a debtor recognizes cancellation of debt income (CODI) upon discharge of its outstanding indebtedness for an amount of consideration that is less than its adjusted issue price. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) provides that a debtor in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy case may exclude CODI from taxable income but must reduce certain of its tax attributes by the amount of CODI realized as a result of the consummation of a plan of reorganization. The amount of CODI realized by a taxpayer is determined based on the fair market value of the consideration received by the creditors in settlement of outstanding indebtedness. As a result of the market value of equity upon emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, the estimated amount of CODIcancellation of debt income (CODI) for federal income tax purposes is approximately $217$229 million, which will reducereduces the value of our net operating losses by an equal amount. The actual reduction in tax attributes does not occur until the first day of our tax year subsequent to the date of emergence, or January 1, 2021. The reduction of net operating losses is expected to bewas fully offset by a corresponding decrease in valuation allowance.
Upon our emergence from Chapter 11, we underwent an ownership change, as defined in the IRC, which we expect will result in future annual limitations on the usage of our remaining domestic net operating losses. The majority of our remaining domestic net operating losses will begin to expire in 2030, while losses generated after 2017 are carried forward indefinitely but are limited in usage to 80% of taxable income beginning in 2021. The majority of our foreign net operating losses are carried forward indefinitely, but losses generated after 2016 are carried forward for 12 years and will begin to expire in 2029.
We provide a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. We evaluated the impact of the reorganization, including the change in control, resulting from our bankruptcy emergence and determined it is more likely than not that we will not fully realize future income tax benefits related to our domestic net deferred tax assets based on the annual limitations discussed above,that impact us, historical results, and expected market conditions known on the date of measurement.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted in responseOur deferred tax assets related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act contains numerous corporate income tax provisions, some of which impact our calculation of income taxes, including providing for the carryback of certain net operating losses modificationsavailable to reduce future taxable income, and our valuation allowance that offset a portion of our domestic net deferred tax assets, consist of the net interest deduction limitations, refundable payroll tax credits, and deferment of employer social security payments.

9.8.     Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value and provides a hierarchical framework associated with the level of subjectivity used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Currently, our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade payables and long-term debt. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, and tradetrade payables are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting, we We estimate that the carrying value of our long-term debt approximates fair value.
10.9.     Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted EPS is computed based on the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of shares issuable from stock-based compensation awards and the Convertible Notes. Potentially dilutive common shares from outstanding stock-based compensation awards are determined using the average share price for each period under the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive shares from the Convertible Notes are determined using the if-converted method, whereby the Convertible Notes are assumed to be converted and included in the denominator of the EPS calculation (if dilutive) and the interest expense, net of tax, recorded in connection with the Convertible Notes is added back to net income (loss)(if dilutive).

11.    Stock-Based Compensation Plans
Prior to the Effective Date, we had various outstanding stock option, restricted stock, and restricted stock unit awards, as well as phantom stock unit awards which were classified as liability awards under ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Upon our emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases in May 2020, all unvested equity-based incentive compensation awards vested in full and settled in shares of our new post-emergence common stock.
Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, we adopted the Pioneer Energy Services Corp. 2020 Employee Incentive Plan (the “Employee Incentive Plan”) providing for the issuance from time to time, as approved by our new board of directors, of equity and equity-based awards with respect to the Common Stock in the aggregate and on a fully-diluted basis, of up to 1,198,074 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 114% of the shares of Common Stock issued on the Effective Date, but representing 10% of the shares of Common Stock issued on the Effective Date on a fully-diluted basis. The shares of Common Stock issued under the Employee Incentive Plan in the future will dilute all of the shares of Common Stock issued on the Effective Date and all shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes equally.
In July 2020, we issued 90,000 shares of restricted stock to our former Chief Executive Officer in connection with his resignation.
12.10.    Segment Information
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, we have 4 operating segments, comprised of 2 drilling services business segments (domestic and international drilling) and 2 production services business segments (well servicing and wireline services), which reflects the basis used by management in making decisions regarding our business for resource allocation and performance assessment, as required by ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. In April 2020, we closed our coiled tubing services business and placed all of our coiled tubing services assets as held for sale at June 30, 2020. Historical financial information for our coiled tubing services business, which had previously been presented as a separate operating segment, continues to be presented in the following tables as a component of continuing operations.
Our domestic and international drilling services segments provide contract land drilling services to a diverse group of exploration and production companies through our 3 drilling divisions in the US and internationally in Colombia. We provide a comprehensive service offering which includes the drilling rig, crews, supplies, and most of the ancillary equipment needed to operate our drilling rigs.

13.11.    Commitments, Contingencies and ContingenciesInsurance Claim Liabilities
In connection with our operations in Colombia, our foreign subsidiaries routinely obtain bonds for bidding on drilling contracts, performing under drilling contracts, and remitting customs and importation duties. Based on historical experience and information currently available, we believe the likelihood of demand for payment under these bonds and guarantees is remote.
In February 2021, we received a $2.5 million assessment from the Colombian tax and customs authority related to an administrative delay in documentation provided for one of our drilling rigs. After evaluating the assessment with our customs advisors, we do not believe that it is probable that we will be required to pay the customs duty assessment.
We are currently undergoingroutinely subject to various states’ sales and use tax audits for multi-year periods.audits. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, our accrued liability was $0.8$1.0 million and $2.0$0.9 million, respectively, based on our estimate of the sales and useindirect tax obligations that are expected to result from these audits.obligations. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the audit process, we believe that it is reasonably possible that we may incur additional tax assessments with respect to one or more of thepotential audits in excess of the amount accrued. We believe that such an outcome would not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. Because certainposition, but because of these audits are in a preliminary stage,the aforementioned uncertainty, an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss from an adverse result in all or substantially all of these casesaudit results cannot reasonably be made.
Due to the nature of our business, we are, from time to time, involved in litigation or subject to disputes or claims related to our business activities, including workers’ compensation claims and employment-related disputes. Legal costs relating to these matters are expensed as incurred. In the opinion of our management, none of the pending litigation, disputes or claims against us will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow from operations.

The subsidiaries that generally operateInsurance Claim Liabilities
We use a combination of self-insurance and third-party insurance for various types of coverage. At June 30, 2021, our non-U.S. business concentrated in Colombia do not guarantee our Senior Secured Notesaccrued insurance premiums and did not guarantee our Prepetition Senior Notes. The non-guarantor subsidiaries do not have any payment obligationsdeductibles include approximately $0.6 million of accruals for costs incurred under the Senior Secured Notes,self-insurance portion of our health insurance and approximately $1.8 million of accruals for costs associated with our workers’ compensation insurance. We accrue for these costs as claims are incurred using an actuarial calculation that is based on industry and our company’s historical claim development data, and we accrue the guarantees orcost of administrative services associated with claims processing. Based upon our past experience, management believes that we have adequately provided for potential losses. However, future multiple occurrences of serious injuries to employees could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.
Our insurance recoveries receivables and our accrued liability for insurance claims and settlements represent our estimate of claims in excess of our deductible, which are covered and managed by our third-party insurance providers, some of which may ultimately be settled by the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.
Ininsurance provider in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any non-guarantor subsidiary, such non-guarantor subsidiary would be obligated to pay the holders of its debt and other liabilities, including its trade creditors, before it would be able to distribute any of its assets to us.

Recent Developments
Reorganization and Emergence from Chapter 11Patterson-UTI Merger Agreement
On March 1, 2020, we filedJuly 5, 2021, Pioneer Energy Services Corp., a petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On May 11, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Plan and on May 29, 2020, the conditions to effectiveness of the Plan were satisfied and the Pioneer RSA Parties emerged from Chapter 11. Our completion of the Chapter 11 Cases has allowed us to significantly reduce our level of indebtedness and our future cash interest obligations.
On the Effective Date, all applicable agreements governing the obligations under the Term Loan, Prepetition Senior Notes and Prepetition ABL Facility were terminated. The Term Loan and Prepetition ABL Facility were paid in full and all outstanding obligations under the Prepetition Senior Notes were canceled in exchange for 94.25% of the pro forma common equity. On the Effective Date, weDelaware corporation (“Pioneer”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc., a $75 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement which was later amendedDelaware corporation (“Patterson”), Crescent Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and reduced to $40 million in August 2020 (the “ABL Credit Facility”wholly owned subsidiary of Patterson (“Merger Sub Inc.”), and issued $129.8Crescent Ranch Second Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Patterson (“Merger Sub LLC”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub Inc. will merge with and into Pioneer, with Pioneer continuing as the surviving entity (the “Surviving Corporation”) (the “First Company Merger”) and (ii) immediately following the First Company Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Merger Sub LLC, with Merger Sub LLC continuing as the surviving entity (the “Surviving Company”) (the “Second Company Merger” and, together with the First Company Merger, the “Mergers”). Upon consummation of the Mergers, Pioneer will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Patterson and will no longer be a registrant under the rules of the SEC.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement and as more fully described below, Pioneer will receive from Patterson an aggregate consideration of up to 26,275,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Patterson (“Patterson common stock”) and $30 million of aggregate principal amountcash. As more fully described in the Merger Agreement, all of 5% convertible senior unsecured pay-in-kind notesPioneer’s debt is being retired in connection with the Mergers with a portion of such shares and cash with Pioneer’s cash on hand determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement prior to closing (the “Company Cash”).
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to certain exceptions, holders of Common stock and holders Convertible Notes will be issued shares of Patterson common stock according to an exchange ratio (the “Exchange Ratio”) to be determined at the closing of the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (collectively, the “Transactions”). The Exchange Ratio will equal the quotient obtained by dividing (i) 26,275,000 (subject to a downward adjustment as specified in the Merger Agreement if the average of the volume weighted average prices of the Patterson common stock during the 10 consecutive trading days ending with the last complete trading day prior to the closing date

Industry Impacts
Measures taken by federal, state and local governments, both globally and domestically, to reduce the rate of spread of COVID-19 have resulted in a decrease in general economic activity and a corresponding decrease in global and domestic energy demand, which has negatively impacted oil and gas prices, which in turn has reduced demand for, and the pricing of, products and services provided to the oil and gas industry, including the products and services which we provide. In addition, actions by OPEC and a group of other oil-producing nations led by Russia have negatively impacted crude oil prices. These events pushed crude oil storage near capacity and drove prices down significantly, as described further in the below section entitled “Market Conditions and Outlook”. To the extent these conditions continue to exist in future periods, our clients’ willingness and ability to explore for, develop and produce hydrocarbons will be adversely affected, which will reduce demand for our products and services and adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity.
We have worked to respond to the recent and current market conditions in a number of ways, including:
Safety Measures. We have taken proactive steps in our field operations and corporate offices to protect the health and safety of our employees and contractors, including temperature screenings at field job sites, remote working for our office employees, and we implemented procedures for hygiene and distancing at all our locations.
Reduced Capital Spending. We significantly reduced our initial 2020 capital expenditure budget. Currently, we expect to spend a total of $15 million to $17 million on capital expenditures during 2020; our original budget contemplated capital expenditures of approximately $40 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we limited our capital expenditure spending to $1.5 million.
Closure of Under-performing Operations. In April 2020, we closed our coiled tubing operations and idled all our coiled tubing equipment, which were subsequently placed as held for sale. We have also closed or consolidated 9 operating locations within our wireline and well servicing operations and exited 13 long-term leases during 2020 as well as various other short-term leases that support our business, and renegotiated or otherwise downsized other leased locations in order to reduce overhead and improve profitability.
Cost-Cutting Measures. Throughout 2020, we have implemented various cost-cutting measures including, among other things, (i) a 60% reduction in our total headcount, (ii) the suspensionSupporting Holders have agreed, subject to certain limitations and exceptions, not to transfer any of our Employee Incentive Plan and determining that no bonuses would be payable thereunder, (iii) a reduction intheir Common stock or Convertible Notes (collectively, the base salaries“Covered Securities”) until the earlier of each of our executive officers by 24% to 35%, (iv) certain hourly, salary and incentive compensation reductions for administrative and operations personnel throughout the company, (v) a20% reduction indate the cash compensation of each of our non-employee directors effective until June 30, 2021 (or such other date as determinedMerger Agreement is terminated by the Board)Effective Time, to vote such Covered Securities in a manner to facilitate the consummation of the Mergers and (vi)to consent to and approve the elimination of certain employee benefits, including matching 401(k) contributions.

Reorganization and Emergence from Chapter 11
On March 1, 2020, we filed a petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On May 11, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) that was filed with the Bankruptcy Court on March 2, 2020, and on May 29, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the conditions to effectiveness of the Plan were satisfied, and we emerged from Chapter 11.
As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan, our condensed consolidated financial statements after the Effective Date are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements on or

Market Conditions and Outlook
Industry Overview — Demand for oilfield services offered by our industry is a function of our clients’ willingness and ability to make operating expenditurescapital and capitaloperating expenditures to explore for, develop and produce hydrocarbons, which is primarily driven by current and expected oil and natural gas prices.
Our business is influenced substantially by exploration and production companies’ spending that is generally categorized as either a capital expenditure or an operating expenditure. Capital expenditures for the drilling and completion of exploratory and development wells in proven areas are more directly influenced by current and expected oil and natural gas prices. In contrast,prices while operating expenditures for the maintenance of existing wells, for which a range of production services are required in order to maintain production, are relatively more stable and predictable.
DrillingAlthough over the longer term, drilling and production services have historically trended similarly in response to fluctuations in commodity prices. However,prices, because exploration and production companies often adjust their budgets for exploration and development drilling first in response to a change in commodity prices, the demand for drilling services is generally impacted first and to a greater extent than the demand for production services which is more dependent on ongoing expenditures that are necessary to maintain production. Additionally, within the range of production services businesses, those that derive more revenue from production-related activity, as opposed to completion of new wells, tend to be less affected by fluctuationsvolatility in commodity prices and temporary reductions in industry activity.prices.
However, in a severe downturn that is prolonged, both operating and capital expenditures are significantly reduced, and the demand for all our service offerings is significantly impacted. After a prolonged or severe downturn, among the production services, the demand for production-related workover services generally improves first, followed by the demand for completion-oriented services as exploration and production companies begin to complete wells that were previously drilled but not completed during the downturn, and to complete newly drilled wells asfinally by the demand for drilling services improves during recovery.of new wells.
For additional information concerning the potential effects of volatility in oil and gas prices and other industry trends, see Item 1A – “Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 6, 2020, as amended by Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on April 28, 2020.
Market Conditions and Outlook — Since January 2020, theThe COVID-19 pandemic and oil and natural gas market volatility havewhich began in early 2020 resulted in a significant decrease in oil prices and significant disruption and uncertainty in the oil and natural gas market. Beginning inIn March 2020, the decline in demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic coincided with the announcement of price reductions and possible production increases by members of OPEC and other oil exporting nations, including Russia. Although OPEC and other oil exporting nations ultimately agreed to cut production, the downward pressure on commodity prices has remained and could continue in the foreseeable future. Thesethese extreme supply and demand dynamics caused significant crude oil price declines, negatively impacting our industry’s oil producers who responded with significant cuts in their recentpreviously planned and projected spending.
The trends in spot prices of WTI crude oil and Henry Hub natural gas, and the resulting trends in domestic land rig counts (per Baker Hughes) and domestic well servicing rig counts (per Association of Energy Service Companies/Energy Workforce & Technology Council) from January 2020 through June 2021 are illustrated in the graphs below.

The commodity price environment and global oversupply of oil during 2020 resulted in an oversupply of equipment in the industry, declining rig counts and dayrates, and substantially reduced activity for all our service offerings. Additionally, because our business depends on the level of spending by our clients, we are also affected by our clients’ ability to access the capital markets. After several consecutive years without significant improvement in commodity prices, many exploration and production companies have limited their spending to a level which can be supported by net operating cash flows alone, as access to the capital markets through debt or equity financings has become more challenging in our industry. This challenge has
However, the recovery of supply chain disruptions and the rollout of COVID-19 vaccinations led to stabilization and improvements in commodity pricing, with oil prices of over $70 per barrel at the end of June 2021, versus approximately $40 per barrel one year ago. Steadily increasing commodity prices and rig counts since the latter half of 2020 and continued market stabilization led to improved activity levels for all of our business segments.
Activity levels for our domestic drilling and well servicing operations (measured in revenue days and hours, respectively) in the second quarter of 2021 increased recently due4% and 16%, respectively, as compared to the major stock marketprior quarter, while our international drilling revenue days and bond market indices experiencing elevated levels of volatility in 2020.

pes-20200930_g1.jpg
The commodity price environment and global oversupply of oil during 2020 has resulted in an oversupply of equipment in our industry, declining rig counts and dayrates, and substantially reduced activity for all our service offerings. Oil and gas exploration and production companies reduced their previously planned capital spending programs for 2020, thereby reducing demand for our services. In March 2020, many operators began to curtail operations and several of our clients terminated their drilling contracts with us in April and May 2020.
35%, respectively. At the end of September 30, 2020, 12June 2021, 15 of our 25 drilling rigs were earning revenues, 9revenue, 13 of which were under term contracts, with anand 4 additional rigs are contracted but pending operations. Including the rigs which we have contracted but which are pending operations, the aggregate average term remaining of approximately 7 months, and 3 more were under contract but with suspended or pending operations. Additionally, 2 of the domestic rigs currently under spot contracts are each contracted to begin 1-yearon our term contracts at the beginning of 2021. Utilization ofis approximately 13 months.
As our production services fleets also dropped significantly in response to recent market conditions, and in April 2020, we closed our coiled tubing operations and idled all our coiled tubing equipment, which were subsequently placed as held for sale.
We cannot predict whether or when the current imbalance in supply and demand will correct, and when and to what extent crude oil production activities will return to normalized levels. While rig counts and gas prices have continued to increase through October 2020, oil and natural gas commodity prices are expected toclients continue to be volatile, and demand for our products and services will continue to be affected if our clients continue to reviseadjust their capital budgets downward and adjust their operations in response to lower oil prices.
Weimproving but uncertain industry conditions, we are currently focusingcontinuing to focus our efforts on reducing costs and the realignment of certain businesses, whilemanaging labor pressures, and maintaining essential functions and readinessreadiness for the moderately improving market conditions which we expect for the remainder of 2020 and into the first part ofto continue through 2021. We believebelieve our high-quality equipment, services, and excellent safety record position us well to compete as our industry recovers.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Overview
Our completion of theemergence from Chapter 11 Cases has allowed us to significantly reduce our level of indebtedness and our future cash interest obligations. We currently expect that cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and available funds under the ABL Credit Facility are adequate to cover our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months.months. However, our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and compliance with our debt instruments over the next 12 months, grow, make capital expenditures, and service our debt depends primarily upon (i) the level of demand for, and pricing of, our products and services; (ii) the level of spending by our clients; (iii) our ability to collect our receivables and access borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility; (iv) the supply and demand for oil and gas; (v) oil and gas prices; (vi) general economic and market conditions; and (vii) and other factors that are beyond our control.

The market competition between OPEC and non-OPEC countries andcoupled with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant crude oil price declines in 2020, negatively impacting our industry’s oil producers who responded with significant cuts in their recent and projected spending. A continued decrease in the demand for oil, combined with current depressed oil prices, hasspending which affected, and could continue to negatively affect, the amount of cash we generate and have available for working capital requirements, capital expenditures, and debt service.
Our availability under the ABL Credit Facility at SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 was $10.7$17.2 million, which our access to would be limited bysubject to (i) our requirement to maintain 15% of the maximum revolver amount available or comply with a fixed charge coverage ratio and (ii) the requirement to maintain availability of at least $4 million, which may include up to $2 million of pledged cash. In addition, as a result of current market conditions, certain of our clients are facing financial pressures and liquidity issues. There can be no assurance that one or more of our clients will not delay or default on payments owed to us or file for bankruptcy protection, in which case we may be unable to collect all, or any portion, of the accounts receivable owed to us by such clients. Delays or defaults in payments of accounts receivable owed to us may also adversely affect our borrowing base and our ability to borrow under our ABL Credit Facility.
Sources of Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity currently consist of:
total cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash ($32.130.3 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 2020)2021);
cash generated from operations; and
the availability under the ABL Credit Facility ($10.717.2 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, as discussed below).

In
Although we are restricted from doing so during the future,pendency of the merger with Patterson, if the mergers are not consummated, we maymay also consider equity and/or debt offerings in the future, as appropriate, to meet our liquidity needs. However, our ability to access the capital markets by issuing debt or equity securities will be dependent on market conditions, our financial condition, and other factors beyond our control. Additionally, the ABL Credit Facility and the indentures for our Convertible Notes and Senior Secured Notes contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, the incurrence of which would also first require the approval of two of our principal stockholders, and our bylaws limit our ability to issue equity securities without the prior written consent of one of our principal stockholders.
ABL Credit Facility — On the Effective Date,Upon our emergence from Chapter 11, pursuant to the terms of the Plan, we entered into a senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement in an aggregate amount of $75 million among us and substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries as borrowers (the “Borrowers”), the lenders party thereto and PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent. On August 7, 2020, we entered into a First Amendment to the ABL Credit Facility (together, herein referred to as the “ABL Credit Facility”) which, among other things, reduced the maximum amount of the revolving credit agreement to $40 million.
Among other things, proceeds of loans under the ABL Credit Facility may be used to pay fees and expenses associated with the ABL Credit Facility and finance ongoing working capital and general corporate needs.
The maturity date of loans made under the ABL Credit Facility is the earliest of 90 days prior to maturity of the Senior Secured Notes or the Convertible Notes (both of which are described below in the section entitled Debt Instruments and Compliance Requirements) and May 29, 2025. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate of (i) the LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 0%) plus an applicable margin of 375 basis points per annum or (ii) the base rate plus an applicable margin of 275 basis points per annum.
The ABL Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Borrowers and is secured by a first lien on the Borrowers’ accounts receivable and inventory, and the cash proceeds thereof, and a second lien on substantially all of the other assets and properties of the Borrowers. The ABL Credit Facility limits our annual capital expenditures to 125% of the budget set forth in the projections for any fiscal year and provides that if our availability plus pledged cash of up to $3 million falls below $6 million (15% of the maximum revolver amount), we will be required to comply with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, all of which is defined in the ABL Credit Facility. 
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, we had no borrowings and approximately $8.8$7.3 million in outstanding letters of credit under the ABL Credit Facility and subject to the availability requirements in the ABL Credit Facility, based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory balances at SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, availability under the ABL Credit Facility was $10.7$17.2 million, which our access to would be limited bysubject to (i) our requirement to maintain 15% of the maximum revolver amount available or comply with a fixed charge coverage ratio, as described above, and (ii) the requirement to maintain availability of at least $4 million, which may include up to $2 million of pledged cash.

Uses of Capital Resources
Our principal liquidity requirements are currently for:
working capital needs;
capital expenditures; and
debt service.
Our working capital needs typically fluctuate in relation to activity and pricing. Following a sustained period of low activity, our working capital needs generally increase as we invest in reactivating previously idle equipment and in purchases of inventory and supplies for expected increasing activity. Our capital requirements to maintain our equipment also fluctuate in relation to activity, and increase following a period of sustained low activity. Our capital requirements are also increased duringDuring periods of expansion at which timesand/or organic growth, we have been more likely to accessmeet increased capital requirements through equity or debt financing. During periods of sustained low activity and pricing, when our cash flow from operations are negatively impacted, we may also access additional capital through the use of available funds under the ABL Credit Facility.

The decrease in our working capitalOur current assets decreased by $0.9 million during 2020 is2021, primarily due to a $2.1 million decrease in total cash including restricted cash, a $2.0 million decrease in assets held for sale, and a $1.4 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, all of $61.0which were largely offset by a $5.7 million or 66%,increase in our total trade and unbilled receivables, despite a decrease of $17.1 million, or 53%, in our accounts payable and a $6.7 millionreceivables.
The decrease in accrued employee costs, all of which are primarily a result of the significant decline in demand for our service offerings which resulted in decreased revenue and related costs.
Totaltotal cash, including cash equivalents and restricted cash, increased by $6.5 million,is primarily due to $12.6repayments of Senior Secured Notes totaling $3.0 million of cash provided by the refinancing of our debt obligations upon emergence from Chapter 11, which was partially offset byand a net investment of $3.1$2.6 million in capital expenditures, as well as $3.0net of proceeds from asset sales, which were partially offset by $3.5 million of net cash used inprovided by operating activities.
Other decreases in our current assets during 2020 included a $9.2 millionThe decrease in inventoryassets held for sale is primarily dueattributable to the revaluationsale of assets uponequipment and inventory from our adoption of fresh start accounting, a $4.9 millioncoiled tubing operations which closed in April 2020.
The decrease in other receivables primarily due to an income tax refund in 2020 related to our international operations, and a $3.5 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets partiallyis primarily due to the usage of professional fee retainers associated with our bankruptcy proceedings as well as the amortization of prepaid insurance premiums which are generally paid annually in October.late October each year.
Other decreasesThe increase in our total trade and unbilled receivables during 2021 is attributable primarily to an increase in activity for our international drilling operations, which experienced an increase in revenue of over 30% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020. This increase in activity during 2021, combined with the impact of the timing of the billing and collection cycles for our international drilling contracts, drove the 17% increase in our total trade and unbilled receivables.
Our current liabilities increased $2.0 million during 2021, due to a $2.6 million increase in trade accounts payable and a $1.6 million increase in accrued employee costs, offset in part by a decrease in other accrued expenses.
The increase in trade accounts payable is primarily due to the 14% increase in our operating costs for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020 includeas well as the timing of payments at each period-end.
The increase in accrued employee costs during 2021 is primarily due to an increase in accrued cash incentive compensation associated with the reinstatement of our employee incentive plan as well as the timing of pay periods and the associated withholding and unemployment tax payments. The increase was partially offset by a $5.9decrease in accrued severance costs associated with payments made to former executives in accordance with their respective severance agreements.
The $1.1 million decrease in other accrued expenses during 2021 is primarily relateddue to lower accruedthe timing of payments made for various items such as property taxes associated with our well servicing and international drilling operations, reduced legal and other professional fee accruals associated with our bankruptcy proceedings and reduced current lease liabilities associated with leasesfees that were exited during 2020, as well as a $2.1 million decrease in accrued interest expense primarily because the Prepetition Senior Notes stopped accruing interest as of March 1, 2020 in accordance with the terms of the Plan. These decreases were partially offset by a $1.8 million increase in accrued severance costs duringfor at December 31, 2020.
Capital Expenditures — During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, our capital expenditures totaled $8.7 million and $11.7 million, respectively, primarily related to routine expenditures that are necessary to maintain our fleets. Currently, we expect to spend a total of $15 million to $17approximately $20 million on capital expenditures during 2020, primarily for2021, which is limited to routine expenditures which are necessary to maintain our fleets. As of September 30, 2020, we have spent $13.2 million of this expected annual total. Anticipated remainingfleets. Actual capital expenditures may vary depending on the climate of our industry and any resulting increase or decrease in activity levels, the timing of commitments and payments, availability of capital resources, and the level of investment opportunities that meet our strategic and return on capital employed criteria. We expect to fund the remaining capital expenditures in 20202021 from cash

Debt Instruments and Compliance Requirements On the Effective Date,Upon our emergence from Chapter 11, we entered into a $75 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit agreement which was later amended and reduced to $40 million in August 2020 (the “ABL Credit Facility”), and issued $129.8 million of aggregate principal amount of 5% convertible senior unsecured pay-in-kind notes due 2025 (the “Convertible Notes”) and $78.1 million of aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior

secured notes due 2025 (the “Senior Secured Notes”). The proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes and the Senior Secured Notes were used to repay the then outstanding Term Loan.term loan.
If the Mergers are consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, it will result in the retirement of all our outstanding debt obligations, as further discussed in the previous section entitled “Recent Developments.
The following is a summary of our debt instruments and compliance requirements as of June 30, 2021 including covenants, restrictions and guarantees, as it relates to our Convertible Notes and Senior Secured Notes, and a summary of our ABL Credit Facility is included in the above section entitled ABL Credit Facility.Facility. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, we were in compliance with all covenants required by our debt instruments. However, our ability to maintain compliance with our debt instruments, and to service our debt, is dependent upon the level of demand for our products and services, the level of spending by our clients, the supply and demand for oil, oil and gas prices, general economic and market conditions and other factors which are beyond our control. If the Mergers are not consummated and we are unable to generate cash flow sufficient for debt service and repayment at maturity, we may seek to refinance our debts or access additional capital through debt/equity offerings.
Convertible Notes Indenture and Convertible Notes due 2025. We entered into an indenture dated as of the Effective Date,May 29, 2020 among the Company and Wilmington Trust, N.A., as trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture to the Convertible Notes Indenture dated May 11, 2021, (the “Convertible Notes Indenture”), and issued $129.8 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior unsecured pay-in-kind notes due 2025 thereunder.
The Convertible Notes are general unsecured obligations which will mature on November 15, 2025, unless earlier accelerated, redeemed, converted or repurchased, and bear interest at a fixed rate of 5% per annum, which will be payable semi-annually in-kind in the form of an increase to the principal amount.
The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time into shares of our common stock and will convert mandatorily into our common stock at maturity; provided, however, that if the value of our common stock otherwise deliverable in connection with a mandatory conversion of a Convertible Note on the maturity date would be less than the principal amount of such Convertible Note plus accrued and unpaid interest, then the Convertible Note will instead convert into an amount of cash equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest. The initial conversion rate is 75 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which in aggregate represents 9,732,825 shares of common stock and an initial conversion price of $13.33 per share. The conversion rate is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
If we undergo a “fundamental change” as defined in the Convertible Notes Indenture, subject to certain conditions, holders may require us to repurchase all or any portion of their Convertible Notes for cash at an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In the case of certain fundamental change events that constitute merger events (as defined in the Convertible Notes Indenture), we have a superseding right to cause the mandatory conversion of all or part of the Convertible Notes into a number of shares of common stock, per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, equal to the then-current conversion rate or the cash value of such number of shares of common stock (but not less than the principal amount).stock.
Holders of Convertible Notes are entitled to vote on all matters on which holders of our common stock generally are entitled to vote (or, if any, to take action by written consent of the holders of our common stock), voting together as a single class together with the shares of our common stock and not as a separate class, on an as-converted basis, at any annual or special meeting of holders of our common stock and each holder is entitled to such number of votes as such holder would receive on an as-converted basis on the record date for such vote.
The Convertible Notes Indenture contains covenants that limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness and create liens and enter into mergers or consolidations.
The Convertible Notes Indenture also contains customary events of default. In the case of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, with respect to us or any of our significant subsidiaries, all outstanding Convertible Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default occurs and is continuing, then the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes then outstanding may declare the Convertible Notes due and payable immediately.

The Convertible Notes Indenture provides, subject to certain exceptions, that for so long as our common stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), a beneficial owner of the Convertible Notes is not entitled to receive shares of our common stock upon an optional conversion of any Convertible Notes during any period of time in which the aggregate number of shares of our common stock that may be acquired by such beneficial owner upon conversion

Results of Operations
As a result of our emergence from Chapter 11 on May 29, 2020, our financial results for the periods prior to the Fresh Start Reportingfresh start reporting date of May 31, 2020 are referred to as those of the “Predecessor,” and our financial results for the periods subsequent to May 31, 2020 are referred to as those of the “Successor.”
Although the Successor period(s) and the Predecessor period(s) are distinct reporting periods, we have combined the Successor and Predecessor period results during the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020 in order to provide some comparability of such information to the corresponding Predecessor periodSuccessor periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019.2021. While this combined presentation is not presented according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and no comparable GAAP measures are presented, management believes that providing this financial information is the most relevant and useful method for making comparisons to the corresponding Predecessor periodSuccessor periods as reviewing the Successor period results in isolation would not be useful in identifying trends in or reaching conclusions regarding our overall operating performance.
The following table providestables provide certain information about our operations, including details of each of our business segments’ revenues, operating costs and gross margin for the periods indicated (amounts in thousands).

We believe that this measure is useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of our core operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies within our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered (a) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), (b) as an indication of cash flows from operating activities or (c) as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Consolidated gross margin We experienced a significant decline in demand for all our service offerings beginning in March 2020 as a result of the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and adverse global oil production and pricing decisions made by OPEC and non-OPEC countries, as described in more detail in the earlier section above entitled, “Market Conditions and Outlook.As commodity prices improved during 2021, activity levels across all our businesses increased, particularly during the second quarter of 2021. Our consolidated gross margin decreased by $28.2increased $4.7 million, or 74%56%, for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021 and decreased by $72.3$4.2 million, or 64%14%, for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. Our production services offerings, which are heavily completion-oriented businesses, were most significantly impacted by the decline in demand, with a combined gross margin decrease of 84% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019. While our drilling services business were also significantly impacted, and experienced a combined 49% gross margin decrease2020.

during this same period, the impact was mitigated by the longer-term nature of the operations, which are typically supported by term contracts.

Our domestic drilling average revenues and margin per day decreased by 20% and 13% for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020, respectively,2021 decreased as compared to the corresponding periods in 2019, as revenue days decreased by 40% and 25%, respectively. Average revenues per day declined during 2020 asprimarily due to the decline in dayrates for contracts that were renewed or renegotiated during 2020 and renegotiated2021, as well as the impact of increased amortization of deferred mobilization revenue and costs during 2020 for rigs that were deployed under new contracts in late 2019 were reduced.the second half of 2019. Additionally, average revenues and margin per day for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 benefited from $2.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of additional revenue associated with the early termination of two of our domestic drilling contracts in 2019, which is net of $1.6 million of early termination revenue recognized in May 2020. These decreases were offset in part by2020 and the benefitimpact of rigs placed on standby in 2020. Beginning in late March 2020, rather than terminating their contracts with us, certain of our clients elected to temporarily stack three of our rigs, placing them on an extended standby for a
51


reduced revenue rate and the option to reactivate the rigs through the remainder of the contract term. Although these drilling rigs earn lower standby rates as compared to daywork rates, operating costs incurred are minimal, which reduces operating costs per day and benefits overall margin per day.
Our international drilling average margin per day decreased by 66% and 51% for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020, respectively,2021 improved significantly as compared to the corresponding periods in 2019,2020, driven primarily driven by the 69% and 70% reductionsignificant improvements in revenue days
40


utilization during these respectiveperiods. Average revenues and operating costs per day declined during these same periods, asprimarily due to the impact of certain customers terminatedcustomers’ termination or suspendedsuspension of drilling contracts during 2020 in response to the decline in industry conditions. These contract terminations and suspensions in 2020 also resulted in an increase in rig demobilization activity, for whichwhich revenues and costs are higher than daywork activity, and but for which there are no associated revenue days. Average revenue per day during the three months ended September 30, 2019 also benefited from $1.4 million of revenues associated with the demobilization of three rigs during the third quarter of 2019. The decline in utilization combined with the increasedecrease in rig standby and demobilization costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2020 and higher demobilization revenue in 2019 all contributed to the decreasesimprovement in average margin per day.day during 2021. Additionally, average revenues and operating costs per day during 2021 were adversely impacted by Colombia’s national strike which resulted in an increase in rig standby time and delays in rig mobilization.

Although overall activity declined beginning in March 2020, especially for completion
52


services, average revenues per hour remained relatively stable until June 2020 in regions where pricing was slower to respond to economic conditions. Similarly, the recovery in our industry resulted in increased activity which we experienced to a greater degree earlier than the improvements in pricing which began to increase in early 2021 but which trailed the upward trend in commodity prices and activity during 2021.
Our wireline services business segment experienced decreasesan increase of 92% and 40%over 250% in the number of perforating stages performed and revenuebut a 27% decrease in price per stage respectively, for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020, and decreases of 66% and 15%2021 as compared to the corresponding period in 2020.

Already decreasing demand for completion-related services worsened with the sharp decline in industry conditions beginning in late February 2020, and resulted in our decision to close several underperforming operating locations and downsize our fleet beginning in the second quarter of 2020.
In April 2020,early 2021, we closed our coiled tubing operations and idled all our coiled tubing equipment, which were subsequently placed as held for sale. This closure, combined with theanother operating location that experienced a decline in demandrevenue and are continuing our evaluation of this business for our coiled tubing services prior to April 2020, resulted in the 77% decrease in revenue days and the 35% decrease in average revenue per day for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the corresponding period in 2019.further cost reductions.
Depreciation and amortization expense — Our depreciation expense decreased by $8.2$7.0 million, or 36%37%, and $12.8$15.6 million, or 19%38%, for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020, respectively,2021 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2019,2020, primarily as a
41


result of the application of fresh start accounting which resulted in reductions to the values of our long-lived assets as of May 31, 2020 as well as the designation of all our coiled tubing assets as held-for-sale at June 30, 2020. The overall decrease in depreciation expense was partially offset by an increase due to the deployment of our 17th domestic AC drilling rig in March 2019 and an increase for the amortization of intangibles whichintangible assets which were established in connection with fresh start accounting at May 31, 2020. Also, as a result of applying fresh start accounting, we assigned new useful lives to our long-lived assets, several of which were assigned a remaining useful life of one year. Therefore, with no significant capital expenditures expected for the remainder of 2021, we expect a decline in depreciation and amortization expense as this class of assets will be fully depreciated.
Pre-petitionPrepetition restructuring charges All expenses and losses incurred prior to the Petition Date which were related to the Chapter 11 proceedings are presented as pre-petitionprepetition restructuring charges in our Predecessor condensed consolidated statements of operations, including $9.6 million of expense incurred for the Commitment Premium pursuant to the Backstop Commitment Agreement. For more detail, see Note 2, Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I,II, Item 1,8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Quarterly Reportour annual report on Form 10-Q.10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Impairment Due to the significant decline in industry conditions, commodity prices, and projected utilization of equipment, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our industry, our projected cash flows declined during the first quarter of 2020, and we performed recoverability testing on all our reporting units. As a result of this analysis, we incurred impairment charges of $16.4 million and $1.9 million during 2020 to reduce the carrying values of our coiled tubing assets and certain held-for-sale assets, respectively, to their estimated fair values. For more detail, see Note 5, Property and Equipment, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Reorganization items, net — Any expenses, gains, and losses incurred subsequent to and as a direct result of the filing for Chapter 11 and directly related to such proceedings are presented as reorganization items in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. For more detail, see Note 2, Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I,II, Item 1,8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Quarterly Reportour annual report on Form 10-Q.10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Interest expense — Our interest expense decreased by $9.2$0.3 million, or 5%, and $1.3 million, or 9% for the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 as compared to the corresponding periodperiods in 2019,2020, primarily because the Prepetition Senior Notes stopped accruing interest as of March 1, 2020, in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and because our total outstanding debt was significantly reduced upon our emergence from Chapter 11. The overall decreases were slightly offset by an increase in amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs, which increased the total effective interest rate during the period.
Income tax expense (benefit)benefit Our effective tax rates differ from the applicable U.S. statutory rates primarily due to the impact of valuation allowances, as well as the impact of state taxes, other permanent differences, and the mix of profit and loss between federal, state and international taxing jurisdictions with different tax rates. For more information, see Note 8, Taxes, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

General and administrative expense — Our general and administrative expense decreased by $30.4$0.6 million, or 45%5%, and $5.6 million, or 21%, for the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 as compared to the corresponding periodperiods in 2019,2020. These decreases primarily consist of which $22.2 million is attributable to reduced employee costs in connection with the decline in operational activity, including a $16.7of $1.3 million decrease in incentive compensation primarily associated with the one-time retention and incentive compensation awards granted in the third quarter of 2019$5.6 million, respectively, as well as the terminationimpact of cost-cutting measures implemented during 2020 including, among other things, reductions in headcount, incentive compensation, and base salary compensation for our previous annualexecutives and long-termother administrative personnel, and reduced cash incentive awards in 2019 and the suspension of incentive awards in early 2020. This overall decrease in general and administrative expense wascompensation for our non-employee directors. These decreases were partially offset by $3.6increases in stock compensation expense of $1.7 million and $2.2 million during these same respective periods, primarily attributable to the grants of severance costs for certain executives whose employment was terminated during the third quarter of 2020.restricted stock to our directors in April 2021.
Loss (gain)Gain on dispositions of property and equipment, net During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 and the corresponding period in 2019,2020, we recognizedrecognized net gains of $5.3$3.4 million and $2.2$1.4 million, respectively, on the disposition or sale of various property and equipment, includingprimarily for the sale of coiled tubing equipment, drill pipe and collars and certain older and/or underutilized equipment.
Other expense (income) The decrease in our other expense for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021 as compared to the corresponding period in 2020 is primarily related to $4.8$2.8 million of net foreign currency losses recognized for our Colombian operations, as compared to $0.5$3.8 million of net foreign currency losses during the corresponding period in 2019.2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Except for the applicationAs of fresh start accounting,June 30, 2021, there werewere no significant changes to our critical accounting policies since the date of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as amended.2020.
Accounting estimates — Material estimates affecting our financial results, including those that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term, relate to our application of fresh start accounting, our estimates of certain variable revenues and amortization periods of certain deferred revenues and costs associated with drilling daywork contracts, our estimates of projected cash flows and fair values for impairment evaluations, our estimate of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and our estimate of the liability relating to the self-insurance portion of our health and workers’ compensation insurance.
Fresh Start Accounting. In connection with our emergence from bankruptcy and in accordance with ASC Topic 852, we qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Effective Date. We were required to adopt fresh start accounting because (i) the holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor Company received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor Company, and (ii) the reorganization value of our assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.
In accordance with ASC Topic 852, with the application of fresh start accounting, we allocated the reorganization value to our individual assets and liabilities (except for deferred income taxes) based on their estimated fair values in conformity with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The amount of deferred taxes was determined in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. The Effective Date fair values of our assets and liabilities differed materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheets.
Fresh start accounting involved a comprehensive valuation process in which we determined the fair value of all our assets and liabilities on the Effective Date. For more information, see Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Revenues. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, we estimate certain variable revenues associated with the demobilization of our drilling rigs under daywork drilling contracts. We also make estimates of the applicable amortization periods for deferred mobilization costs, and for mobilization revenues related to cancelable term contracts which represent a material right to our clients. These estimates and assumptions are described in more detail in Note 4,3, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In order to make these estimates, management considers all the facts and circumstances pertaining to each particular contract, our past experience and knowledge of current market conditions. For more information, see Note 4,3, Revenue from Contracts with

Customers, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Impairment Evaluation. In accordance with ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, we monitor all indicators of potential impairments. Due to the significant decline in industry conditions, commodity prices, and projected utilization of equipment, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our industry, our projected cash flows declined during the first quarter of 2020, and we performed recoverability testing on all our reporting units. As a result of this analysis, we incurred impairment charges of $16.4 million to reduce the carrying values of our coiled tubing assets to their estimated fair values during the three months ended March 31, 2020. For all our other reporting units, excluding coiled tubing, we determined that the sum of the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows were in excess of the carrying amounts and that no impairment existed for these reporting units at March 31, 2020. We continuedcontinue to monitor potential indicators of impairment through September 30, 2020 and concluded that none of our reporting units are currently at risk of impairment.impairment at June 30, 2021.
The assumptions we use in the evaluation for impairment are inherently uncertain and require management judgment. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates used in our impairment analysis are reasonable, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact the analysis and resulting conclusions. The most significant inputs used in our impairment analysis include the projected utilization and pricing of our services, as well as the estimated proceeds upon any future sale or disposal of the assets, all of which are classified as Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. If commodity prices decrease or remain at current levels for an extended period of time, or if the demand for any of our services decreases below what we are currently projecting, our estimated cash flows may decrease and our estimates of the fair value of certain assets may decrease as well. If any of the foregoing were to occur, we could incur impairment charges on the related assets. For more information, see Note 5,4, Property and Equipment, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Deferred Tax Assets. We provide a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. We evaluated the impact of the reorganization, including the change in control, resulting from our bankruptcy emergence and determined it is more likely than not that we will not fully realize future income tax benefits related to our domestic net deferred tax assets based on the annual limitations that impact us, historical results, and expected market conditions.conditions known on the date of measurement. For more information, see Note 8,7, Taxes, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Insurance Claim Liabilities. We use a combination of self-insurance and third-party insurance for various types of coverage. We have stop-loss coverage of $225,000 per covered individual per year under our health insurance and deductibles of $500,000 and $250,000 per occurrence under our workers’ compensation and auto liability insurance, respectively. We have a $500,000 self-insured retention and an additional aggregate deductible of $500,000 under our general liability insurance as well as an annual aggregate deductible of $1,000,000 on the first layer of excess coverage.
43


At SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, our accrued insurance premiums and deductibles include approximately $0.7$0.6 million of accruals for costs incurred under the self-insurance portion of our health insurance and approximately $2.7$1.8 million of accruals for costs associated with our workers’ compensation insurance. We accrue for these costs as claims are incurred using an actuarial calculation that is based on industry and our company’s historical claim development data, and we accrue the cost of administrative services associated with claims processing. For more information, see Note 11, Commitments, Contingencies and Insurance Claim Liabilities of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.Our exposure to market risk primarily consists of (i) interest rate risk associated with our variable rate debt and (ii) foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with our international operations in Colombia.

Interest Rate Risk
— We are exposed to interest rate market risk on our variable rate debt. We do not use financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. As of June 30, 2021, the principal amount outstanding under our variable rate debt, the Senior Secured Notes, was $75.5 million. The impact of a hypothetical 1% increase or decrease in interest rates on this amount of debt would have resulted in a corresponding increase or decrease, respectively, in interest expense of approximately $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. This potential increase or decrease is based on the simplified assumption that the level of variable rate debt remains constant with an immediate across-the-board interest rate increase or decrease as of January 1, 2021.
Foreign Currency Risk — While the U.S. dollar is the functional currency for reporting purposes for our Colombian operations, we enter into transactions denominated in Colombian Pesos. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates and monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the period. Income statement accounts are translated at average rates for the period. As a result, Colombian Peso denominated transactions are affected by changes in exchange rates. We generally accept the exposure to exchange rate movements without using derivative financial instruments to manage this risk. Therefore, both positive and negative movements in the Colombian Peso currency exchange rate against the U.S. dollar have and will continue to affect the reported amount of revenues, expenses, profit, and assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. The impact of currency rate changes on our Colombian Peso denominated transactions and balances resulted in net foreign currency losses of $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In the ordinary course of business, we may make changes to our systems and processes to improve controls and increase efficiency, and make changes to our internal controls over financial reporting in order to ensure that we maintain an effective internal control environment.
During the second quarter of 2020, upon our emergence from Chapter 11, we established controls over the application of fresh start accounting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20202021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in routine litigation or subject to disputes or claims arising out of our business activities, including workers’ compensation claims and employment-related disputes. In the opinion of our management, none of the pending litigation, disputes or claims against us will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. For information on Legal Proceedings, see Note 13,11, Commitments, Contingencies and ContingenciesInsurance Claim Liabilities, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1 Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the risk factors described below and the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2019, as amended by Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.
Risks Relating to the RestructuringPending Merger with Patterson-UTI
Because the market price of Patterson common stock will fluctuate, our stockholders and convertible noteholders cannot be sure of the value of the shares of Patterson common stock they will receive in connection with the Mergers. In addition, because the Exchange Ratio is determined only at the time of the closing, the number of shares of Patterson common stock to be received in connection with the Mergers will not be known prior to that time.
In connection with the Mergers, each eligible share of common stock will be converted automatically into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, with cash paid in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares of Patterson common stock. The Exchange Ratio is determined only at the time of closing and will depend on, among other things, the market price of Patterson common stock for specified periods prior to closing, our cash on hand at closing determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the amount of our designated expenses, any amounts required to repay in full and retire any indebtedness outstanding under our ABL Credit Facility and the amount of accrued interest on the Convertible Notes. In addition, the Exchange Ratio is subject to a downward adjustment as specified in the Merger Agreement if the average of the Patterson-UTI VWAP for the 10 consecutive trading days ending with the last complete trading day prior to the closing date is greater than $11.00. Therefore, the value of the Merger Consideration, including the number of shares of Patterson common stock received in connection with the Mergers, will depend in part on the market price of Patterson common stock at and for specified periods prior to the Effective Time. The market price of Patterson common stock has fluctuated since the date of the announcement of the parties’ entry into the Merger Agreement and will continue to fluctuate until the date the Mergers are completed and thereafter.
In addition to the market price of Patterson common stock, the Exchange Ratio and therefore the value of the Merger Consideration will depend on our cash on hand at closing determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement after payment of our designated expenses and debt repayments under our ABL credit facility.
The market price for Patterson common stock following the closing may be affected by factors different from those that historically have affected or currently affect Patterson common stock and our common stock.
Upon completion of the Mergers, our stockholders and convertible noteholders will receive shares of Patterson common stock. Patterson’s financial position may differ from its financial position before the completion of the Mergers, and the results of operations of Patterson following the Mergers may be affected by some factors that are different from those currently affecting the results of operations of Patterson and those currently affecting our results of operations. Accordingly, the market price and performance of Patterson common stock is likely to be different from the performance of our common stock in the absence of the Mergers. In addition, general fluctuations in stock markets could have a material adverse effect on the market for, or liquidity of, Patterson common stock, regardless of Patterson’s actual operating performance.
Our stockholders as of immediately prior to the Mergers will have a substantially reduced ownership in Patterson following the Mergers.
The maximum number of shares of Patterson common stock to be issued and the maximum amount of cash to be delivered by Patterson pursuant to the Merger Agreement will be 26,275,000 shares and $30,000,000 in cash, which
45


includes all amounts required to retire the Senior Notes, the Convertible Notes and any debt outstanding under our ABL Credit Facility, together with the payment of the Merger Consideration to holders of our common stock, subject to appraisal rights that may be exercised by such holders under Delaware law.
The actual number of shares of Patterson common stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement will be determined at the completion of the Mergers based on the Exchange Ratio that will be determined only at the closing. The Exchange Ratio will equal the quotient obtained by dividing (i) 26,275,000 (subject to a downward adjustment as specified in the Merger Agreement if the average of the Patterson-UTI VWAP for the 10 consecutive trading days ending with the last complete trading day prior to the closing date of the Mergers is greater than $11.00) less the shares of Patterson common stock to be delivered to our senior noteholders as described herein, by (ii) the aggregate number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time plus the number of shares of our common stock into which the Convertible Notes are convertible immediately prior to the effective time (assuming physical settlement as specified in the indenture governing the Convertible Notes). The shares of common stock to be delivered to holders of common stock and Convertible Notes in the Transactions are referred to as the “Merger Consideration.” The issuance of these new shares could have the effect of depressing the market price of Patterson common stock, through dilution of earnings per share or otherwise. Any dilution of, or delay of any accretion to, Patterson’s earnings per share could cause the price of Patterson common stock to decline or increase at a reduced rate.
Following the completion of the Mergers and our debt repayments, it is expected that Patterson stockholders as of immediately prior to the Mergers will own approximately 88%, and holders of our securities as of immediately prior to the Mergers will own approximately 12%, of the issued and outstanding shares of Patterson common stock. As a result, our current stockholders will have significantly less influence on the policies of Patterson than they currently have on our policies.
We recently emergedmust obtain certain regulatory approvals and clearances to consummate the Mergers.
The completion of the Mergers is subject to antitrust review in the United States. Under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), and the rules promulgated thereunder, the Mergers cannot be completed until the parties to the Merger Agreement have given notification and furnished information to the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), and until the applicable waiting period has expired or has been terminated.
At any time before or after consummation of the Mergers, notwithstanding the early termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, the FTC, the DOJ or any state could take such action under antitrust laws as it deems necessary or desirable in the public interest, including seeking to enjoin the completion of the Mergers or seeking the divestiture of substantial assets of Patterson or us or its or our respective subsidiaries, respectively. Private parties may also seek to take legal action under antitrust laws under certain circumstances.
The Mergers are subject to a number of conditions to the obligations of us and Patterson to complete the Mergers, which, if not fulfilled, or not fulfilled in a timely manner, may delay completion of the Mergers or result in termination of the Merger Agreement.
The respective obligations of each of us and Patterson to effect the Mergers are subject to the satisfaction at or prior to the Effective Time of the following conditions:
The approval of the merger proposal by our stockholders must have been obtained;
any waiting period (and any extension thereof) under the HSR Act relating to the Mergers shall have expired or been terminated;
no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment, order or decree or other legal restraint or prohibition issued by any governmental entity having jurisdiction over any party shall be in effect, and no law shall have been enacted, entered, promulgated, enforced or deemed applicable by any governmental entity that prohibits or makes illegal consummation of the Mergers;
the shares of Patterson common stock to be issued in the First Merger shall have been approved for listing on the NASDAQ;

the Third Supplemental Indenture shall have been executed and delivered by us, the guarantors party thereto and the trustee under the Senior Note indenture, and shall be in full force and effect;
subject to certain exceptions and materiality standards provided in the Merger Agreement, the representations and warranties of the other party must be true and correct as of the date of the Merger Agreement and as of the closing date, and such party must have received an officer’s certificate from bankruptcy,the other party to that effect; and
the other party must have performed in all material respects all of its obligations required to be performed under the Merger Agreement, and such party must have received an officer’s certificate from the other party to that effect.
The obligations of Patterson, Merger Sub Inc. and Merger Sub LLC to effect the Mergers are also subject to the satisfaction, or waiver by Patterson, at or prior to the effective time of the following additional conditions:
since the date of the Merger Agreement there shall not have occurred any event, change, circumstance, occurrence, effect or state of facts that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on us, and Patterson’s receipt of an officers’ certificate from us to that effect;
delivery of a properly executed Foreign Investment and Real Property Tax Act of 1980 notification letter which states that the shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time do not constitute “United States real property interests” under Section 897(c) of the Code for purposes of satisfying Patterson’s obligations under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(c)(3), and a form of notice to the IRS prepared in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h)(2); and
not more than 6% of the shares of common stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time shall be dissenting shares.
Many of the conditions to completion of the Mergers are not within either our control, and we cannot predict when, or if, these conditions will be satisfied. If any of these conditions are not satisfied or waived prior to the Outside Date, it is possible that the Merger Agreement may be terminated. Although we and Patterson have agreed in the Merger Agreement to use reasonable best efforts, subject to certain limitations, to complete the Mergers as promptly as practicable, these and other conditions to the completion of the Mergers may fail to be satisfied. In addition, satisfying the conditions to and completing the Mergers may take longer, and could cost more, than we expect. We cannot predict whether and when these other conditions will be satisfied. Furthermore, the requirements for obtaining the required clearances and approvals could delay the completion of the Mergers for a significant period of time or prevent them from occurring. Any delay in completing the Mergers may adversely affect our businessthe cost savings and relationships.

The Mergers are intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and we intend to report the mergers consistent with such qualification. Neither we nor Patterson intend to obtain a ruling from the IRS with respect to the tax consequences of the Mergers. If the IRS or other contract counterparties may terminate their relationships with usa court determines that the Mergers, taken together, should not be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, a U.S. holder of common stock would generally recognize taxable gain or require additional financial assurances or enhanced performance from us;loss upon the exchange of common stock for Patterson common stock pursuant to the Mergers.
Uncertainties associated with the Mergers may cause a loss of our key employees, which could adversely affect the future business and operations of Patterson following the Mergers.
We are dependent on the experience and industry knowledge of our officers and other key employees to execute our business plans. Patterson’s success after the Mergers will depend in part upon its ability to retain key employees. Our

In addition, the loss of our key personnel could diminish the anticipated benefits of the Mergers. Although we must implement any retention bonus arrangements for our employees and compete for new business mayour subsidiaries that are specifically directed by Patterson, no assurance can be adversely affected;given that Patterson, following the Mergers, will be able to retain or attract our key employees to the same extent that we have previously been able to retain or attract our own employees.

Parties with which we do business may experience uncertainty associated with the Mergers, including with respect to current or future business relationships with us following the Mergers. Our business relationships may be subject to disruption as customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and reputation.other business partners may attempt to delay or defer entering into new business relationships, negotiate changes in existing business relationships or consider entering into business relationships with parties other than us following the mergers. These disruptions could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position, regardless of whether the Mergers are completed, as well as a material and adverse effect on Patterson’s ability to realize the expected cost savings and other benefits of the Mergers. The risk, and adverse effect, of any disruption could be exacerbated by a delay in completion of the Mergers or termination of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement limits our ability to pursue alternatives to the Mergers, may discourage other companies from making a favorable alternative transaction proposal and, in specified circumstances, could require us to pay Patterson a termination fee.
As a resultThe Merger Agreement contains certain provisions that restrict our ability to solicit, initiate, endorse, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any inquiry, proposal or offer with respect to, or making or completion of, any acquisition proposal, or any inquiry, proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to, an acquisition proposal with respect to us, and we have agreed to certain terms and conditions relating to our ability to enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding or otherwise cooperate in any way with, any acquisition proposal.

If the Mergers are not completed for any reason, including as a result of failure to obtain all requisite regulatory approvals or if our stockholders fail to approve the Pioneer merger proposal, our ongoing business may be materially adversely affected and, without realizing any of the benefits of having completed the Mergers, we would be subject to a number of risks, including the following:
we may experience negative reactions from Chapter 11,our customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other business partners;
we will still be required to pay certain significant costs relating to the compositionMergers, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor and printing fees;

Instead, former Pioneer stockholders will become Patterson stockholders, and, while their rights as Patterson stockholders will continue to be governed by the laws of the state of Delaware, their rights will be subject to and governed by the terms of the Patterson certificate of incorporation and the Patterson bylaws. The laws of the state of Delaware and terms of the Patterson certificate of incorporation and the Patterson bylaws are in accordance with ASC Topic 852 and became a new entity for financial reporting purposes.

These estimates, projections and enterprise valuation were prepared solely for the purpose of the bankruptcy proceedings and should not be relied upon by investors for any other purpose. At the time they were prepared, the determination of these values reflected numerous estimates and assumptions, and the fair values recorded based on these estimates may not be fully realized in periods subsequent to our emergence from bankruptcy.
The condensed consolidated financial statements after the Effective Date are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements on or before that date as indicated by the “black line” division in the financial statements and footnote tables, which emphasizes the lack of comparability between amounts presented. This will make it difficult for stockholders to assess our performance in relation to prior periods.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stockstockholders.
We cannot assure you that an active trading marketare expected to incur significant transaction costs in connection with the Mergers, which may be in excess of those anticipated by us and, except for our common stockthe Pioneer designated expenses, will develop or be maintained,paid by Patterson in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.
We have incurred and are expected to continue to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with negotiating and completing the Mergers, combining the operations of the two companies and achieving desired synergies. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the authorization, preparation, investigation, negotiation, execution and performance of the Merger Agreement and the market pricetransactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers, will be paid by Patterson, except with respect to the Pioneer designated expenses, which will be paid by us, and include, among others, any fees paid to our financial and legal advisors, any brokers’, finders’ or similar fees payable by us, 50% of our common stockall fees incurred in connection with the filing, printing and mailing of the proxy statement/prospectus and specified employee retention, severance and benefit costs. These costs have been, and will continue to be, substantial and will be borne by Patterson and us, as applicable, whether or not the Mergers are completed. Patterson will also incur costs related to formulating and implementing integration plans, including facilities and systems consolidation costs and other employment-related costs. We and Patterson will continue to assess the magnitude of these costs, and additional unanticipated costs may be volatile, whichincurred in connection with the Mergers and the integration of the two companies’ businesses.

The costs described above and any unanticipated costs and expenses, which will be borne by Patterson or us, as applicable, even if the Mergers are not completed, could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results.
InLitigation relating to the eventMergers could result in an injunction preventing the completion of the Mergers and/or substantial costs to us.
Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into acquisition, merger or other business combination agreements. Even if such a lawsuit is without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on our common stock commences trading,liquidity and financial condition.
Lawsuits that may be brought against us or our respective directors could also seek, among other things, injunctive relief or other equitable relief, including a request to rescind parts of the trading priceMerger Agreement already implemented and to otherwise enjoin the parties from consummating the Mergers. One of our common stockthe conditions to the closing of the Mergers is that no injunction by any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction has been entered and continues to be in effect and no law has been adopted or is effective, in either case that prohibits or makes illegal the closing of the Mergers. Consequently, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting completion of the Mergers, that injunction may not accurately reflectdelay or prevent the value of our business.
Upon our emergenceMergers from Chapter 11, ownership of our common stock is highly concentrated, and there are a limited number of shares available for trading on any public market. As a result, any future reported trading prices for our common stockbeing completed within the expected timeframe or at any given timeall, which may not accurately reflect the underlying economic value ofadversely affect our business, at that time.

There can be no assurance that thereany of the defendants will be sufficient public tradingsuccessful in the outcome of any potential future lawsuits. The defense or settlement of any lawsuit or claim that remains unresolved at the time the Mergers are completed may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The Mergers may be completed even though material adverse changes subsequent to the announcement of the Mergers, such as industry-wide changes or other events, may occur.
Patterson can refuse to complete the Mergers if there is a material adverse change affecting us. However, some types of changes do not permit either party to refuse to complete the transaction, even if such changes would have a material adverse effect on us. For example, a worsening of our financial condition or results of operations due to a decrease in commodity prices or general economic conditions would not give Patterson the right to refuse to complete the Mergers. In addition, the parties have the ability, but are under no obligation, to waive any material adverse change that results in the failure of a closing condition and instead proceed with completing the Mergers. If adverse changes occur that affect either party but the parties are still required or voluntarily decide to complete the transaction, Patterson’s share price, business and financial results after the Mergers may suffer.
Our stockholders are entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the Mergers.
Appraisal rights are statutory rights that enable stockholders to dissent from certain extraordinary transactions, such as certain mergers, and to demand that the corporation pay the fair value for their shares as determined by a court in a judicial proceeding instead of receiving the consideration offered to stockholders in connection with the applicable transaction. Under the DGCL, our stockholders who do not vote in favor of the Pioneer merger proposal will be entitled to exercise appraisal rights under the DGCL, solely with respect to their shares of common stock, in connection with the future to create a liquid trading market that accurately reflects the underlying economic value of our business.
