1. GENERAL

        Key Energy Services, Inc., and its wholly ownedwholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company," "we," "us," "its," and "our") provide a complete range of well services to major oil companies and independent oil and natural gas production companies, including rig-based well maintenance, workover, well completion and recompletion services, drilling, oilfield transportation services, pressure pumping services, fishing and rental services and ancillary oilfield services. We believe that we are the leading onshore, rig-based well servicing contractor in the United States. We operate in most major oil and natural gas producing regions of the United States as well as internationally in Argentina and Mexico. We also have a technology development company based in Canada.

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The condensed December 31, 2007 balance sheet was prepared from audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Certain information relating to the Company's organization and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

        Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to current period financial statement classifications. These reclassifications relate to the cash flow presentation of certain of our share-based payment arrangements that are accounted for as liabilities. In prior periods, these amounts were included in the caption titled "Stock-Based Compensation," a component of cash flows from operating activities. These amounts are now presented in a caption titled "Share-based compensation liability awards," which is also classified as a cash flow from operations.operating activities. Total cash provided by operating activities remains unchanged from previously reported amounts.

        The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report include all normal and recurring material adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statementpresentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein. The results of operations for the three and sixnine month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any other interim period due to fluctuations in demand for our services, timing of maintenance and other expenditures, and other factors.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

        The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to develop estimates and to make assumptions that affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These estimates also impact the nature and extent of our disclosure, if any, of our commitments and contingencies. Among other things, we use estimates to (i) analyze assets for possible impairment, (ii) determine depreciable lives for our assets, (iii) assess future tax exposure and realization of deferred tax assets, (iv) determine amounts to accrue for contingencies, (v) value tangible and intangible assets and (vi) assess workers' compensation, vehicular liability, self-insured risk accruals and

other insurance reserves. Our actual results may differ materially from these estimates. We believe that our estimates are reasonable.

        We apply Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation ("FIN") No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—an Interpretation of ARB No. 51 (Revised 2003)" ("FIN 46(R)") when determining whether or not to consolidate a Variable Interest Entity ("VIE"). FIN 46(R) requires that an equity investor in a VIE have significant equity at risk (generally a minimum of 10%) and hold a controlling interest, evidenced by voting rights, and absorb a majority of the entity's expected losses, receive a majority of the entity's expected returns, or both. If the equity investor is unable to evidence these characteristics, the entity that retains these ownership characteristics will be required to consolidate the VIE. We have determined that we do not have an interest in a VIE and as such we are not the primary beneficiary of a variable interest in a VIE and we are not the holder of a significant variable interest in a VIE.

        The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115" ("SFAS 159"), on January 1, 2008. SFAS 159 permits companies to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the "Fair Value Option"). Companies choosing such an election report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the Fair Value Option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting period. We did not elect to measure any of our financial assets or liabilities using the Fair Value Option. We will assess at each measurement date whether to use the Fair Value Option on any future financial assets or liabilities as permitted pursuant to the provisions of SFAS 159.

        There have been no material changes or developments in the Company's evaluation of accounting estimates and underlying assumptions or methodologies that the Company believes to be Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

3. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

         SFAS 157.    In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"), which is intended to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements by defining fair value, establishing a framework for measuring fair value, and expanding disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.

        In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2 ("FSP FAS 157-2"). FSP FAS 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years, for non-financial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the registrant's financial statements on a recurring basis. The adoption of SFAS 157, as modified by FSP FAS 157-2, did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

         SFAS 141(R).        In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141(R)"). SFAS 141(R) will significantly changeestablishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the accounting for business combinations. Underidentifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, as well as the goodwill acquired. Significant changes from current practice resulting from SFAS 141(R) include the expansion of the definitions of a "business" and a "business combination." For all business combinations (whether partial, full or step acquisitions), an acquiring entitythe acquirer will record 100% of all assets and liabilities of the acquired business, including goodwill, generally at their fair values; contingent consideration will be required to recognize all the assets and

         SFAS 160.        In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements: anStatements—An amendment of ARB No. 51" ("SFAS 160"). SFAS 160 establishes newamends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements," to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest (formerly referred to as "minority interests") in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition ofIt clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is a third-party ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate fromstatements. Among other requirements, SFAS 160 requires the parent's equity. The amountconsolidated statement of net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to aboth the parent and the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net incomeinterest. SFAS 160 also requires disclosure on the face of the consolidated statement of income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions ifof the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, SFAS 160 requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss inamounts of consolidated net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gains or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests ofattributable to the parent and itsto the noncontrolling interest. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this statement.

        In February 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company isthe FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157" ("FSP 157-2"), to partially defer FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"). FSP 157-2 defers the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the process of determiningfinancial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), to fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after November 15, 2008.

SFAS 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and requires morequalitative disclosures about an entity'sobjectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and hedging activitiesdisclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in order to improve the transparency of financial reporting.

The Company currently has no financial instruments that qualify as derivatives, and we do not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

        In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position SFAS 142-3, "Determination of Useful Life of Intangible Assets" ("FSP 142-3"). FSP 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing the renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." FSP 142-3 also requires expanded disclosure regarding the determination of intangible asset useful lives. FSP 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact the adoption of FSP 142-3 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

        In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position SFAS 157-3, "Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active" ("FSP 157-3"). FSP 157-3 clarified the application of SFAS 157. FSP 157-3 demonstrated how the fair value of a financial asset is

4. ACQUISITIONS

        From time to time, the Company acquires businesses or assets that are consistent with its long-term growth strategy. Results of operations for acquisitions are included in the unaudited condensed consolidatedCompany's financial statements of operations beginning from the date of acquisition. The purchase price allocations included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets related to acquisitions made during the third and fourth quartersquarter of 2007 and the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 are based on preliminary information and are subject to change when final fair value determinations are made for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and the purchase price is allocated to the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Final valuations of assets and liabilities are obtained and recorded as soon as practicable and within one year from the date of the acquisition.

        On January 17, 2008, the Company through a wholly-owned subsidiary, purchased the fishing and rental assets of Tri-Energy Services, LLC ("Tri-Energy"), for approximately $1.9 million in cash. These assets were integrated into our Fishing and Rental segment. The equity interests of Tri-Energy were owned by employees of the Company who joined the Company in October 2007 in connection with the acquisition of Moncla Well Service, Inc. and related entities.entities (collectively, "Moncla"). The purchase price was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets purchased and the acquisition of the Tri-Energy assets was accounted for as an asset purchase and did not result in the establishment of goodwill.

        On April 3, 2008, the Company through a wholly-owned subsidiary, purchased all of the outstanding equity interests of Western Drilling, LLC ("Western"), a privately-owned company based in California that operated 22 working well service rigs, three stacked well service rigs and equipment used in the workover and rig relocation process. We acquired Western to increase our service footprint in the California market.

        The purchase price was $51.5 million in cash and was paid on April 3, 2008. The purchase price was subject to a working capital adjustment 45 days from the closing date of the acquisition and resulted in additional consideration paid of $0.1 million in May 2008. The Company also incurred direct transaction costs of approximately $0.4 million. The acquisition was funded from borrowings of $50.0 million under the Company's Senior Secured Credit Facility (see Note 8—"Long-Term Debt."Debt") and cash on hand.

        The acquisition of Western was accounted for as a business combination. The total purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price was based upon preliminary valuations and estimates, and is subject to change as the valuations are finalized. The primary areasarea of the purchase price allocation that is not yet finalized relates to pre-merger contingencies. The final valuation is expected to be completed no later than the first quarter of 2009.

        The fair values of property and equipment were determined using a market approach. The fair values of identified intangible assets were determined using an income approach to measure the present worth of anticipated future economic benefits. The Company also performed an economic obsolescence analysis to confirm the values identified through the aforementioned methods. The allocation is still preliminary at this time, and may potentially change by a material amount once the purchase price allocation is finalized.

        Goodwill was recognized as part of the acquisition of Western as the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company believes the goodwill associated with the Western acquisition is related to the acquired workforce, potential future expansion of the Western service offerings, and the ability to expand our service offerings. Therefore, it was not allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

        The acquired identifiable intangible asset of $9.0 million is related to customer relationships and is subject to amortization under SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). The customer relationshiprelationships will be amortized as the value of the relationships are realized using rates of 17%, 19%, 15%, 12%, 9%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, and 1% for years one2008 through twelve,2019, respectively. The $8.1$8.2 million of goodwill associated with the purchase of Western has been allocated to our Well Servicing segment, and the assets and results of operations subsequent to April 3, 2008 have also been incorporatedintegrated into the Well Servicing segment.

        On May 30, 2008, the Company through a wholly-owned subsidiary, purchased all of the outstanding stock of Hydra-Walk, Inc. ("Hydra-Walk") for approximately $10.3 million in cash and a performance earn-out potential of up to $2.0 million over the next two years from the acquisition date if certain financial and operational performance measures are met. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2008 the Company paid approximately $0.2 million in additional consideration related to a holdback amount that was withheld from the seller pending the completion of a seller closing requirement. The purchase price iswas also subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment of less than $0.1 million that has not been finalized.was paid during the third quarter of 2008.

Walk'sretained approximately $1.1 million of Hydra-Walk's net working capital as a result of the transaction and did not assume any of the debt of Hydra-Walk.

        Hydra-Walk is a leading provider of pipe handling solutions for the oil and gas industry and operates over 80 automated pipe handling units in Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming. We acquired Hydra-Walk to expand the level of integrated well servicing services we are able to provide customers. The assets and results of operations for Hydra-Walk were integrated into our Fishing and Rental segment beginning on May 31, 2008.

        The acquisition isof Hydra-Walk was accounted for as a business combination and the purchase price was allocated to the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired resulted in the establishment of $5.5 million ofwas recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price was based upon preliminary valuations and estimates, of the fair value of the tangible assets, and is subject to change as valuations are finalized.

The final valuation of net assets is expected to be completed no later than the second quarter of 2009.

        This business combination resulted in the acquisition of $3.7 million of tangible assets, $4.5 million of intangible assets and $1.6 million of goodwill. The fair values of tangible assets were determined using a market approach. The fair values of intangible assets were determined using an income approach to measure the present worth of anticipated future economic benefits. The Company also performed an economic obsolescence analysis to confirm the values identified through the aforementioned methods. The allocation is still preliminary at this time and may potentially change by a material amount once the purchase price allocation is finalized.

        The acquired identifiable intangible assets of $4.5 million relate to customer relationships, a tradename and a non-compete agreement. These intangible assets are subject to amortization under SFAS 142. The customer relationships asset of $4.0 million will be amortized as the value of the relationships are realized using rates of 19%, 24%, 17%, 13%, 9%, 6%, 4%, 3%, 3% and 2% for 2008 through 2017, respectively. The tradename asset of $0.4 million will be amortized straight-line over 10 years and the non-compete agreement asset will be amortized straight-line over 3 years.

        Goodwill of $1.6 million has been recognized as part of the purchase price allocation as the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company believes the goodwill associated with the Hydra-Walk acquisition is related to the acquired workforce and expansion of service offerings. Therefore, it was not allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The $1.6 million of goodwill has been allocated to our Fishing and Rental segment.

        As of September 30, 2008, the Hydra-Walk operations had met performance earn-out requirements that resulted in additional consideration of $0.3 million which has been recorded as additional goodwill.

        On July 22, 2008, the Company acquired all of the United States-based assets of Leader Energy Services Ltd. ("Leader"), a Canadian company, for consideration of $34.6 million in cash, of which $1.0 million will be paid upon satisfaction of certain seller performance requirements. The acquired assets include nine coiled tubing units, seven nitrogen trucks, twelve pumping trucks and other ancillary equipment. Additionally, the Company paid approximately $0.7 million for supplies and inventory used in pressure pumping operations. The Company also incurred direct transaction costs of approximately

$0.1 million. The purchase price was allocated to the tangible assets acquired. The acquisition of the Leader assets was accounted for as an asset purchase and did not result in the establishment of goodwill. The Company did not identify any acquired intangible assets. The Leader assets were integrated into our Pressure Pumping segment.

        On September 5, 2007, the Company acquired Advanced Measurements, Inc. ("AMI"), which operates in Canada and is a technology company focused on oilfield service equipment controls, data acquisition and digital information flow. The purchase price was $6.6 million in cash and $2.9 million in assumed debt and was paid in September 2007. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company refined its fair value allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by increasing its deferred tax asset balance by $0.3 million and decreasing its deferred tax liability balance by $1.0 million. These changes were offset by a corresponding net decrease to goodwill of $1.3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, but prior to the anniversary of the acquisition, the Company made additional payments to settle its working capital adjustment with the former owners of AMI and incurred additional transaction costs directly related to the business combination. These payments totaled $1.3 million and resulted in additional goodwill of $1.3 million. The purchase price allocation was completed during the third quarter of 2008 and is final.

        On October 25, 2007, the Company acquired Moncla, Well Service, Inc. and related entities ("Moncla") which operated well service rigs, barges and ancillary equipment in the southeastern United States. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company refined its fair value allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by decreasingincreasing the working capital accounts (excluding deferred tax assets) by $0.6$2.2 million, decreasing the fair value of the well service assets acquired by $3.6 million, increasingdecreasing the deferred tax and other long-term asset balancebalances by $0.3$0.4 million, decreasingincreasing its long-term deferred tax liability balance by $0.4$1.2 million and incurring additional fees related to the closing of the transaction of less than $0.1$0.2 million. The company also paid additional purchase consideration of $0.8 million during the third quarter of 2008. These changes were offset with a corresponding net increase to goodwill for $3.6of $4.0 million in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008. The purchase price allocation is not final and will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. The primary area of the purchase price allocation that is not yet final relates to tax exposures.

        On December 7, 2007, the Company acquired the well service assets and related equipment of Kings Oil Tools, Inc. ("Kings"), a California-based well service company. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company revised its fair value allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by increasing the fair value of the well service assets acquired by $1.6 million, increasing the deferred tax assets by $0.4 million, decreasing the fair value of working capital accounts by $0.1 million and incurring additional fees related to the closing of the transaction of $0.1 million.

6. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS (Continued)

        Certain of our intangible assets are denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars and as such the values of thosethese assets are subject to fluctuations associated with changes in exchange rates. Additionally, certain of these assets are also subject to purchase accounting adjustments. The estimated fair values of intangible assets obtained through acquisitions consummated in the preceding twelve months are based on preliminary information which is subject to change whenuntil final valuations are obtained.

        Amortization expense for our intangible assets was $4.3$4.8 million and $8.1$12.9 million for the three months and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, respectively, and $0.5$0.7 million and $1.2$1.9 million for the three months and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007, respectively.

7. INVESTMENT IN IROC ENERGY SERVICES CORP.

        As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we owned 8,734,469 shares of IROC Energy Services Corp. ("IROC"), an Alberta-based oilfield services company. This represented approximately 19.7% of IROC's outstanding common stock on JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007. IROC shares trade on the Toronto Venture Stock Exchange and had a closing price of $1.35$1.00 CDN and $0.74 CDN per share on JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Mr. William Austin, our Chief Financial Officer, and Mr. Newton W. Wilson III, our Chief Operating Officer and former General Counsel, serve on the board of directors of IROC.

        We have significant influence over the operations of IROC through our ownership interest and representation on IROC's board of directors, but we do not control it. We account for our investment in IROC using the equity method. Our investment in IROC totaled $11.8$11.5 million and $11.2 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. The pro-rata share of IROC's earnings and losses to which we are entitled is recorded in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of other income and expense, with an offsetting increase or decrease to the carrying value of our investment, as appropriate. Any earnings distributed back to us from IROC in the form of dividends would result in a decrease in the carrying value of our equity investment. The value of our investment may also increase or decrease each period due to changes in the exchange rate between USD and CDN. Changes in the value of our investment due to fluctuations in exchange rates are offset by Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.

        We recorded approximately $1.0 million of losses and $1.0less than $0.1 million of income related to our investment in IROC for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, respectively, and $0.3less than $0.1 million of losses and $0.2approximately $0.3 million of income for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007, respectively. During those time periods, no earnings were distributed back to us by IROC in the form of dividends.

        An impairment review of our equity method investment in IROC is performed on a quarterly basis to determine if there has been a decline in fair value that is other than temporary. The fair value of the asset is measured using quoted market prices or, in the absence of quoted market prices, fair value is based on an estimate of discounted cash flows. In determining whether the decline is other than temporary, we consider the cyclicality of the industry in which the investment operates, its historical performance, its performance in relation to its peers and the current economic environment. Future conditions in the industry, operating performance and performance in relation to peers and the future economic environment may vary from our current assessment of recoverability. Such future conditions could therefore result in a determination that a decline in fair value is other than temporary. IROC's

8.375% Senior Notes due 2014

        On November 29, 2007, the Company issued $425.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.375% Senior Notes due 2014 (the "Notes"), under an Indenture, dated as of November 29, 2007, (the "Indenture"), among us, the guarantors party thereto (the "Guarantors") and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The Notes were priced at 100% of their face value to yield 8.375%. Net proceeds, after deducting initial purchasers' discountsfees and estimated offering expenses, were approximately $416.1 million. We used approximately $394.9 million of the net proceeds to retire then-existing term loans, including accrued and unpaid interest, with the balance used for general corporate purposes.

        The Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of Key.the Company. Accordingly, they rank effectively subordinate to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness. The Notes are or will be jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Notes is payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning June 1, 2008. The Notes mature on December 1, 2014.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

        The Company maintains a revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of banks of which Bank of America Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. are the Administrative Agents ("Senior Secured Credit Facility"). The Senior Secured Credit Facility matures in 2012 and the original aggregate lending commitment of this facility iswas $400.0 million and allowsallowed for a combination of borrowings and issuances of letters of credit. There were borrowings of $100.0$170 million and outstanding letters of credit of $61.5

maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0, maintain a consolidated leverage ratio of not more than 3.5 to 1.0, and to not exceed capital expenditures of $250.0 million in any fiscal year. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at JuneSeptember 30, 2008.

        On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. ("Lehman") filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. ("LCPI"), a subsidiary of Lehman, was a member of the syndicate of banks participating in our Senior Secured Credit Facility. LCPI's commitment was approximately 11% of the Company's total facility. As of September 30, 2008, the Company had approximately $150.0 million available under its Senior Secured Credit Facility. This availability reflects the reduction of approximately $18.4 million of unfunded commitments by LCPI.

        All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by most of our subsidiaries and are secured by most of our assets, including our accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.

9. INCOME TAXES

        The Company's effective tax rate for the three months and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was 38.5%37.5% and 38.9%38.4%, respectively, and 38.7%40.0% and 38.5%38.9% for the three months and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007, respectively. The primary difference between the statutory rate of 35% and our effective tax rate relates to state and foreign taxes.

        As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we had approximately $7.0$5.9 million and $6.8 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, net of federal tax benefit, which, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. We are subject to U.S. Federal Income Tax as well as income taxes in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. We have substantially concluded all U.S. federal and state tax matters through the year ended December 31, 2002.

        ApproximatelyNo release of our deferred tax asset valuation allowance was made during the quarter ended September 30, 2008. During the second quarter ended June 30, 2008, approximately $0.5 million of the Net Operating LossCompany's net operating loss deferred tax asset valuation allowance, related to our Mexico operations, has beenwas released as a discrete tax benefit and recordedrecognized in the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The actual income from our Mexico operations for 2008 will affect the ultimate utilization of this deferred tax asset.

        We recognize accrued interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. We have accrued a liability of approximately $2.6$2.1 million and $2.3 million for the payment of interest and penalties as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007.2007, respectively. We do not expect any substantial changes within the next 12 months related to uncertain tax positions.

        During the first sixnine months of 2008, the Company applied approximately $17.0 million of theits income tax refund receivable due as of December 31, 2007 against the Company's current income taxes payable. No cash refund was received by the Company.

The Company accounts for the revised Texas Franchise tax in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," as the tax is derived from a taxable base that consists of income less deductible expenses.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

         Litigation.    Various suits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business are pending against us. Due in part to the locations where we conduct business in the continental United States, we are often subject to jury verdicts and arbitration hearings that result in outcomes in favor of the plaintiffs. We continually assess our contingent liabilities, including potential litigation liabilities, as well as the adequacy of our accruals and our need for the disclosure of these items. In accordance with SFAS No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies," we establish a provision for a contingent liability when it is

probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount is estimable. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the aggregate amount of our provisions for losses related to litigation that are deemed probable and estimable is approximately $7.8$3.8 million. We do not believe that the disposition of any of these matters will result in an additional loss materially in excess of amounts that have been recorded. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2008, we recognized a net benefit of approximately $1.3 million related to the settlement of ongoing legal matters and the continued refinement of liabilities recognized for litigation deemed probable and estimable.

         Litigation with Former Officers and Employees.    We were named in a lawsuit by our former general counsel, Jack D.

On August 17, 2007, the Company filed counterclaims against Mr. Loftis alleging attorney malpractice, breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duties.

We have not recorded a liability for these matters and do not believe that the conclusion of these matters will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

         ShareholderStockholder Class Action Suits and Derivative Actions.    Since June 2004, we and certain of our officers and directors were named as a defendant in six class action complaints brought on behalf of a putative class of purchasers of our securities for alleged violations of federal securities laws, which were filed in federal district court in Texas. These six actions were consolidated into one action. Four shareholderstockholder derivative actions were also filed, purportedly on our behalf.behalf, generally alleging the same facts as those in the consolidated stockholder class action. On September 7, 2007, we reached agreements in principle to settle all pending securitiesof these stockholder class action and derivative lawsuits in consideration of payments totaling $16.6 million in exchange for full and complete releases for all defendants, of which Keythe Company will be required to pay approximately $1.1 million. We received final approval of the settlement of the shareholderstockholder class action claims by the court on March 6, 2008, and preliminaryfinal court approval on the derivative actions on April 18, 2008. A hearing for final approval on the derivative settlement was heldreceived on August 1,8, 2008. No objections were made by any party during the hearing.

         Expired Option Holders.    In September 2007, Belinda Taylor Texas, filed a lawsuit in the 11th Judicial District of Harris County, Texas, on behalf of herself and all similarly situated current and former employees who held vested options that expired between April 28, 2004 and the date that the Company became current in its financial statements (the "Expired Option Holders"). The suit, as amended, alleges that the Company breached its contracts with the Expired Option Holders, and breached its fiduciary duties and duties of good faith and fair dealing in the pricing of stock options it granted to those Expired Option Holders. On March 6, 2008, the parties agreed to settle all pending claims with all Expired Option Holders, excluding those terminated for cause and those who have previously filed suits against Key,us, for approximately $1.0 million, which includes all taxes and legal fees, and in March 2008 we recorded a liability in the amount of the settlement for this matter. On June 17, 2008,The court entered a final order approving the settlement on August 25, 2008 and dismissed the case. We expect the distribution of payments pursuant to the terms of the settlement to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2008.

         Automobile Accident Litigation.    On August 22, 2007, one of our employees was involved in an automobile accident that resulted in a third party fatality. A lawsuit arising from this accident is currently pending in Jasper County, Texas. We are vigorously defending against the claims in the lawsuit; however, at this time we cannot predict the outcome of the lawsuit. Mediation has been rescheduled to occurfatality and during the third quarter of 2008. In first quarter of 2008 we recorded an appropriate liability for this mattermatter. The lawsuit arising from this accident was settled during the third quarter of 2008 and do not expect that the final conclusionCompany recognized incremental expense of this matter will result in an additional loss materially in excessless than $0.5 million related to the settlement during the third quarter of the amount accrued.2008.

         Tax Audits.    We are routinely the subject of audits by tax authorities, and in the past have received material assessments from tax auditors. As of December 31, 2007 and JuneSeptember 30, 2008, we have recorded reserves that management feels are appropriate for future potential liabilities as a result of these audits. While we believe we have fully reserved for these assessments, the ultimate amount of settlements can vary from our estimates.

        In connection with an ongoing sales tax audit, the Company recorded a liability of approximately $3.2 million during the third quarter of 2008 relating to state sales taxes not collected from the Company's customers from 2003 through September 30, 2008 and therefore not remitted to the appropriate state agency. The provision was recorded in the Company's general and administrative expense line item in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008. We do not expect that the ultimate resolution of the matter will result in a loss materially in excess of the amount already accrued.

        In connection with our former Egyptian operations, which terminated in 2005, we are undergoing income tax audits for all periods in which we had operations. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company hadhas recorded a liability of approximately $0.4 million relating to open Egyptian income tax audits. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company reached a preliminary settlement with the Egyptian tax authorities on the 2003 and 2004 tax years, recording a tax benefit of $0.7 million and reducing the tax liability accrued at December 31, 2007 to approximately $0.4 million. We do not expect that the ultimate resolution of the matter will result in a loss materially in excess of the amount already accrued.

         Self-Insurance Reserves.    We maintain reserves for workers' compensation and vehicle liability on our balance sheet based on our judgment and estimates using an actuarial method based on claims incurred. We estimate general liability claims on a case-by-case basis. We maintain insurance policies for workers' compensation, vehicle liability and general liability claims. These insurance policies carry self-insured retention limits or deductibles on a per occurrence basis. The retention limits or deductibles are accounted for in our accrual process for all workers' compensation, vehicular liability and general liability claims. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we have recorded

$70.5 $74.9 million and $69.0 million, respectively, of self-insurance reserves related to workers' compensation, vehicular liabilities and general liability claims. Partially offsetting these liabilities, we had approximately $10.2 million and $8.1 million of insurance receivables as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. We feel that the liabilities we have recorded are appropriate based on the known facts and circumstances and do not expect further losses materially in excess of the amounts already accrued for existing claims.

         Environmental Remediation Liabilities.    For environmental reserve matters, including remediation efforts for current locations and those relating to previously-disposed properties, we record liabilities when our remediation efforts are probable and the costs to conduct such remediation efforts can be reasonably estimated. While our litigation reserves reflect the application of our insurance coverage, our environmental reserves do not reflect management's assessment of the insurance coverage that may apply to the matters at issue. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we have recorded $2.8$3.0 million and $3.1 million, respectively, for our environmental remediation liabilities. We feel that the liabilities we have recorded are appropriate based on the known facts and circumstances and do not expect further losses materially in excess of the amounts already accrued.

        We provide performance bonds to provide financial surety assurances for the remediation and maintenance of our Salt Water Disposal ("SWD") properties to comply with environmental protection standards. Costs for SWD properties may be mandatory (to comply with applicable laws and regulations), in the future (required to divest or cease operations), or for optimization (to improve operations, but not for safety or regulatory compliance).

         Registration Payment Arrangement.    In January 1999, we issued 150,000 warrants (the "Warrants") in connection with a debt offering that were exercisable for an aggregate of approximately 2.2 million shares of the Company's stock at an exercise price of $4.88125 per share. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, 75,00077,300 Warrants had been exercised, leaving 75,00072,700 outstanding, which were convertible intoexercisable for approximately 1.1 million shares of our common stock.

11. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

        On October 26, 2007, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, in which the Company may spend up to $300.0 million to repurchase shares of its common stock on the open market. The program expires at the end of the first quarter of 2009. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company had $175.5$147 million of availability under the share repurchase program to repurchase shares of its common stock on the open market. During the first sixnine months of 2008, the Company repurchased an aggregate of approximately 7.08.8 million shares at a total cost of approximately $92.3$120.8 million, which represents the fair market value of the shares based on the price of the Company's stock on the dates of purchase. Since the inception of the program in November 2007 through JuneSeptember 30, 2008, we havethe Company has repurchased an aggregate of approximately 9.311.2 million shares for a total cost of approximately

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

        On July 22,October 31, 2008, we acquired a 26% interest in Geostream Services Group ("Geostream") for $17.4 million. Geostream is headquartered in the Company acquired allRussian Federation and provides drilling and workover services and sub-surface engineering and modeling in the Russian Federation. We are contractually required to purchase an additional 24% of the United States based assets of Leader Energy Services Ltd. and related entities ("Leader"), a Canadian company,Geostream no later than March 31, 2009 for total consideration of $34.6approximately €11.3 million (which at October 31, 2008 is equivalent to $14.8 million in cash, which is subjectU.S. dollars). For a period not to a purchase price adjustment that has not yet been finalized. We borrowed approximately $35.0 million under our revolving credit facility in orderexceed six years subsequent to finance this acquisition. The acquired assets include nine coiled tubing units, seven nitrogen trucks, twelve pumping trucks, and other ancillary equipment. We acquired these assetsOctober 31, 2008, we will have the option to increase our service footprint, specifically inownership percentage of Geostream to 100%; however, if we have not acquired 100% of Geostream on or before the Marcellus and Bakken shale formations, andend of the acquisitionsix-year period, we will be included in the Company's Pressure Pumping Services segment. We have analyzed this transaction under the guidance provided by SFAS No. 141, "Accountingrequired to arrange an initial public offering for Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and based on our preliminary evaluation expect the transaction will be accounted for as an asset purchase.those shares.


Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

        Key Energy Services, Inc., and its wholly ownedwholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company," "we," "us," "its," and "our") provide a complete range of well services to major oil companies and independent oil and natural gas production companies, including rig-based well maintenance, workover, well completion, and recompletion services, oilfield transportation services, pressure pumping services, fishing and rental services, and ancillary oilfield services. We believe that we are the leading onshore, rig-based well servicing contractor in the United States. We operate in most major oil and natural gas producing regions of the United States as well as internationally in Argentina and Mexico. We also have a technology development company based in Canada.

        The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007, included elsewhere herein, and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

        We operate in three business segments:


Performance Measures

        In determining the overall health of the oilfield service industry, we believe that the Baker Hughes U.S. land drilling rig count is the best barometer of capital spending and activity levels, since this data is made publicly available on a weekly basis. Historically, our activity levels have correlated well with capital spending by oil and natural gas producers. When commodity prices are strong, capital spending by our customers tends to be high, as illustrated by the Baker Hughes U.S. land drilling rig count. As the following table indicates, the land drilling rig count has remained high over the past several quarters and prices for both oil and natural gas have remained strong.

        Internally, we measure activity levels in our Well Servicing segment primarily through our rig and trucking hours. As capital spending by our customer base increases, demand for our services generally rises, resulting in increased rig and trucking services and more hours worked. Conversely, when activity levels decline due to lower spending by our customer base, we generally provide fewer services, which results in lower hours worked. The number of rig and trucking hours, as well as pricing, may also be affected by increases in industry capacity. We publicly release our monthly rig and trucking hours. The



following table presents our quarterly rig and trucking hours from the first quarter of 2007 through the secondthird quarter of 2008:

Acquisitions

         Tri-Energy.    On January 17, 2008, the Company through a wholly owned subsidiary, purchased the fishing and rental assets of Tri-Energy for approximately $1.9 million in cash. These assets were integrated into our Fishing and Rental segment. We completed this acquisitionacquired these assets in order to expand our fishing and rental service offerings in the Louisiana market. The purchase price was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the purchase of the Tri-Energy assets did not result in the establishment of goodwill.

         Western.    On April 3, 2008, the Company through a wholly-owned subsidiary, purchased all of the outstanding equity interests of Western, a privately owned company based in California that operated 22 working well service rigs, three stacked well service rigs, and equipment used in the workover and rig relocation process for approximately $51.6 million. The Western acquisition was completed to increase the Company's service footprint in the California market and the assets and results of operations of Western have been incorporatedintegrated into our Well Servicing segment.

         Hydra-Walk.    On May 30, 2008, wethe Company completed the acquisition of Hydra-Walk for approximately $10.3$10.5 million in cash with a performance earn-out potential of up to $2.0 million over the next two years from the aquisition date if certain performance measures are met. Hydra-Walk providesprovided pipe handling solutions for the oil and gas industry and operated over 80 automated pipe handling units in Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming. The Hydra-Walk acquisition was completed to expand our service offerings and the assets and results of operations for Hydra-Walk are now incorporatedintegrated into our Fishing and Rental segment.

         Leader.    On July 22, 2008, the Company acquired all of the United States-based assets of Leader for consideration of $34.6 million in cash, of which $1.0 million will be paid upon satisfaction of certain seller performance requirements. The acquired assets include nine coiled tubing units, seven nitrogen trucks, twelve pumping trucks and other ancillary equipment. Additionally, the Company paid approximately $0.7 million for supplies and inventory used in pressure pumping operations. We acquired these assets in order to expand our coiled tubing services. The purchase price was allocated to the tangible assets acquired and the purchase of the Leader assets did not result in the establishment of goodwill. The Leader assets were integrated into our Pressure Pumping segment.

Market Conditions—Quarter Ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008

        The Baker-Hughes land rig count averaged 1,797 duringDemand for our services is generally correlated to commodity prices and drilling activity. During the course of the third quarter of 2008, the overall industry demand for the services we provide remained high when compared to the comparable period for 2007 and on a sequential basis when



compared to the second quarter of 2008. The Baker Hughes U.S. land drilling rig count averaged 1,910 during the third quarter of 2008, which was an increase ofincreased approximately 7.0%11.3% over the same period in 2007 and an increase ofincreased approximately 5.0%6.3% from the firstsecond quarter of 2008. We believe that the higher rig count is a clear indicator of the strength of the U.S. marketplace, and this belief is reinforced by the robustness of oil and natural gas prices. As of June 30, 2008,The average prices forof West Texas Intermediate crude oil have increased approximately 36.6% and average prices for natural gas at the Henry Hub have climbed 55.2% since the end of 2007. Overall industry demand for the services that we providequarter ended September 30, 2008 have increased 56.4% and 44.0%, respectively, compared to the third quarter ended September 30, 2007, and remained high throughoutnear their 2008 second quarter averages.

        Our activity levels during the coursethird quarter of 2008 remained robust when compared to the comparable period of 2007 and sequentially when compared to the second quarter of 2008.

Including the effects of the acquisitions we made during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and the second quarter of 2008,previous twelve months, our activity levels, as measured by our rig and truck hours, have increased compared to the same period in 2007; our rig hours increased approximately 14.6%20.7% during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 and our truckingtruck hours increased approximately 3.5%8.9% during the same period. Acquisitions we made contributed approximately 97,00093,000 rig hours and



8,000 trucking approximately 6,000 truck hours during the secondthird quarter of 2008. Additionally, the rig hours generated from our Mexico operations contributedincreased by approximately 11,25012,000 rig hours during the secondthird quarter of 2008, compared to zero during the secondthird quarter of 2007. Excluding rig and truck hours from our international operations in Mexico and Argentina and the increases in rig and truck hours associated with ourfrom acquisitions, and expansion in Mexico, our rig and truck hours per working day for the secondthird quarter of 2008 were downincreased slightly fromcompared to their levels during the secondthird quarter of 2007 and our trucking hours increased slightly.2007.

        The decline in our legacy asset utilization duringOur earnings per fully diluted share for the secondthird quarter of 2008 was $0.39 per share compared to $0.27 per share for the second quarter of 2007 was partially due to a late springsame period in the Rocky Mountain region of the U.S., which hurt2007. Weather, including Hurricanes Ike and Gustav, impacted our activity levels, and to the full impact of the additional capacity that continues to enter the domestic marketplace. We anticipated a reduction in the utilization of our assets in our legacy well servicing operations becausein parts of Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma by significantly reducing the increased supply of well servicing assets entering the marketplace and aggressive pricing on the part of our competition in an attempt to capture market share, to which in certain locations we defended our market share with lower pricing.

        Cost increases reduced our margins during the second quarter, primarily driven by fuel and labor cost increases. With the overall increase in our activity, we are now using more fuel than ever before, and the price of fuel—which we estimate has risen approximately 54% since the end of the second quarter of 2007—has had a distinct negative impact on our margins. In addition to increases in fuel costs, margins were impacted by increased labor costs. Because of the high demand for a quality workforce, our workers are continuously targeted by our competition. In order to retain them, we have implemented wage increases and paid bonuses. This, combined with the addition of crews to support the overall increase in ourCompany's operations in certain of our principal markets, has led to a sharp increase in the cost of direct labor during the second quarter of 2008.

        Our international operations continued to perform well during the second quarter of 2008, contributing approximately $41.1 million of revenuethose impacted areas during the quarter which was approximately 8.2%ended September 30, 2008. The inclement weather also significantly impacted our fishing operations in the Gulf Coast by preventing some of our consolidated revenues. Our Argentina operations contributed approximately $29.7 million in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008, but also experienced a 42-day labor strike that hurt its performance. Operations in Mexico continued to expand during the second quarter of 2008; during the second quarter we operated six rigs in Mexico, along with twelve KeyView® units. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter we delivered another three rigs, and all nine are now working.

        In addition, we continue to experience softnessfishing crews from operating in the south Louisiana market, both inGulf of Mexico. The Company believes the inland barge riginclement weather reduced revenue by approximately $11 million and land-based rig markets. We feel that some of the softness in this market is based on the focus of activity in Louisiana shifting from the coastal regions north into the shale formations of the North Louisiana Basin. We are continuing to aggressively deploy our assets in the southern Louisiana market and anticipate that our operations in southern Louisiana should strengthen over the remainder of the year.reduced earnings per diluted share by $0.04 per share.

Market Outlook for the Remainder of 2008

        We believe thatthe long-term outlook for our business remains strongis favorable. Currently, depletion rates are accelerating, reservoir complexity is increasing and the need for reserve replacement continues. Over the long-term these phenomena are positive for our outlook as the challenges faced by our customers will provide us with opportunities.

        In the near-term, as a result of the recent decline in commodity prices and the credit market deterioration, we anticipate lower customer spending on capital projects both in the fourth quarter of 2008 and during the early part of 2009. We believe the lower customer spending will likely have an impact on pricing and utilization of which the magnitude cannot yet be predicted, both in terms of the services we provide and the marketplaces in which we operate. Although we anticipate lower customer spending on capital projects, we believe the high near term decline rates in natural gas production, without additional production being added through capital spending, should lead to a relatively fast reduction in natural gas supplies and a resulting fairly quick return to supply and demand balance.

        While a portion of our business is driven by the exploration activity and capital spending by our customers, an equal portion of our business is focused on services that our activity levels will continue to improve for the remainder of 2008.maintain or enhance existing oil and gas production. We believe that our overall utilization rates will increase during the second half of the year, and that the margin contraction that we have experienced during the first half of 2008 has ended and will reverse during the second half of 2008. It is our belief that most of the additional capacity entering the marketplace is in place and that the supply and demand equation for equipment and services will be more balanced for the remainder of the year.

        Commodity prices continue to be robust andgenerally, the demand for ourand the pricing of services remains strong. Asthat support well maintenance is more stable in times of July 31, 2008, prices for West Texas Intermediate crude oil were in excess of $133 per barrel and natural gas prices at the Henry Hub topped $9 per MMBtu. We believe that iffalling commodity prices remain at or near their current levels or increase,and reduced capital spending than services that emphasize exploration. We also believe the anticipated reduction in capital spending by our customers will continue to expand theirand the limited financing available may also result in a reduction of discretionary capital spending which we believe will drive the prices forby our services higher.


        Our activity levelscompetitors and financial performance are also expected to continue to improve over the remaindera reduction of 2008 as we fully integrate the acquisitions we have made and expand our presence in international markets. The assets we acquired from Western in April 2008 and Hydra-Walk in June 2008 are performing well and we expect that they will continue to do so in the future. Additionally, we acquired the U.S. based assets of Leader in July 2008, and these assets are already generating margins for us and helping us expand our service offerings in the Marcellus and Bakken shale plays, which we believe will provide us an excellent growth opportunity over the remainder of 2008 and for the near future.

        Over the last several quarters, we have been implementing a strategy to increase our market share in the shale plays, emphasizing our offerings in the gas regions of the continental U.S. Additionally, we have begun shifting our product offering mix away from the traditional oil-dominated services to a more balanced portfolio, including the expansion of services such as coiled tubing, cased-hole electric wireline services, pressure pumping, pipe handling, and drill string rental. Our capital expenditure program includes the delivery of a significant amount of thisnew equipment in the third and fourth quarters of 2008. We believe that this strategy will position us well to increase our margins and asset utilization for the remainder of the year.

        A continuing challenge for us for the balance of 2008 will be fuel costs. If gasoline and diesel prices continue to rise, it will continue to have a negative impact on our ability to maintain and improve margins. Another challenge to our ability to generate margins will be the cost of retaining and replacing labor. The labor market for our employees continues to be tight, and in order to retain our workers we have implemented wage increases and paid bonuses. If the labor market continues to be robust through the balance of 2008 or becomes even stronger, our direct labor costs will continue to escalate. During the late second quarter of 2008, we began implementing price increases in selected markets, and these increases should be fully in place by the end of the third quarter of 2008. We believe that these increases will, at a minimum, offset the increase in our fuel and labor costs.

        Because the demand for our services is generally correlated to commodity prices and drilling activity, our activity levels could be negatively impacted in the event that commodity prices decline rapidly or unexpectedly. During the first quarter of 2008 we experienced significant pressure from increased competition related to new market entrants, but during the second quarter we began to see these pressures moderate.marketplace.


        As a result of these conditions, we are taking actions now to prepare for the uncertainty in future periods. These steps include flexible capital spending plans focused on customer driven expenditures, overhead reductions where warranted and continued monitoring of operating capacity levels. Additionally, we are taking the requisite actions to protect liquidity and enhance free cash flow while at the same time enhancing geographic and service line footprint as opportunities in the marketplace present themselves.

        For the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, our net income was $44.0$48.5 million, which represents an 8.6% decreasea 35.0% increase from net income of $48.1$35.9 million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007. Our earnings per fully diluted share for the period was $0.35$0.39 per share compared to $0.36$0.27 per share for the same period in 2007. The declineincrease in earnings was primarily attributable to increased laborprice increases initiated during the second and fuel coststhird quarters of 2008, acquisitions made during the previous twelve months, international expansion in Mexico and higher depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by increased revenues and lower income tax expense.expansion of our service offerings.

        A detailed review of our operations including a review of our segments, for the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 is provided below.


        Our consolidated revenue for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 increased $91.5$121.7 million, or 22.3%29.4%, to $502.0$535.6 million from $410.5$414.0 million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007. The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to price increases initiated during the second and third quarters of 2008, acquisitions made during the previous twelve months, international expansion in Mexico, and expansion of our service offerings.

        Acquisitions made during the second half of 2007 and during the secondprevious twelve months increased our third quarter of 2008 contributed approximately $53.1 million to the increase in well servicing segment revenue over the second quarter of 2007. Other increases in well servicing revenue were attributable to the expansion of our cased-hole electric wireline business, whose revenues increased approximately $3.7by $53.9 million, for the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007, and the expansion of our international operations in Mexico, whose revenues increased approximately $9.7 million during the second quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. Excluding these items, our well servicing revenue in the second quarter of 2008 increased approximately $4.6 million, or 1.5%, from the same period in 2007.

        Revenues from our pressure pumping operations increased $14.7segment revenue by $4.0 million, or 19.0%, for the second quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. We expandedand our pressure pumping operations during the third quarter of 2007 by adding frac crews in the Barnett Shale. As a result, the number of frac jobs we performed in the second quarter of 2008 increased compared to the second quarter of 2007, leading to higher revenues. This increase was offset by less cementing work during the second quarter of 2008 and pricing pressure due to increased competition.

        Revenues for our fishing and rental operations increased $5.7 million, or 23.3%, for the second quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The acquisition of Hydra-Walk in May 2008 contributed approximately $1.1 million in revenues during the second quarter. Excluding the Hydra-Walk acquisition, our fishing and rental revenue increased approximately $4.6 million, or 18.8%. The increase in fishing and rental segment revenue was driven by changes$2.7 million, compared to the third quarter of 2007.

        Direct expensescosts attributable to businesses acquired during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and the second quarter of 2008previous twelve months contributed approximately $34.7$39.1 million to the increase in direct expenses during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. TheseThe direct expensescosts from these acquisitions were comprised of employee compensation ($20.724.0 million), supplies, equipment, and maintenance ($8.09.4 million), self-insurance costs ($2.11.9 million), fuel ($2.01.9 million) and other direct expenses ($1.9 million).

        Excluding employee compensation attributable to acquisitions, direct employee compensation, which includes salaries, cash bonuses, health insurance, 401(k) costs and payroll taxes, increased



approximately $15.9 million or 11.8% during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007.



Our expansion in Mexico generated $2.3 million of the $15.9 million increase during the third quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company incurred approximately $2 million of retroactive union wage increases that have not yet been recovered from our Argentine customers. Excluding these items, direct employee compensation increased 8.6% during the third quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The labor market for our employees continues to be extremely tight, and our employees have been consistently been targeted by our competition due to their high quality. As a result, we have increased wage rates for our employees and paid them bonuses in order to retain them, hired new crews to keep up with customer demand, and have incurred recruiting expenses to replace those employees who were lost to our competitors and to other industries.

        OurExcluding fuel costs attributable to acquisitions, our fuel costs increased $10.1$11.1 million, or 54.6%59.8%, during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. SinceWe estimate the endaverage per-gallon cost of diesel fuel during the secondthird quarter of 2007, we estimate that our per-gallon price of fuel2008 has increased approximately 54%.45.1% compared to the same period in 2007. To a lesser extent, our fuel costs have also risen due to the increased amount of fuel used, as a result of the increase in our rig and truck hours.

        CostsPressure pumping supplies and equipment consists primarily of frac sand, chemicals and the related costs to transport those items. These costs, excluding costs attributable to acquisitions, increased approximately $9.7 million, or 41.8%, during the third quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in fuel prices resulted in higher operating costs for our pressure pumping segment as the prices for raw materials increased in addition to the shipping and transportation costs for goods and services purchased. To a lesser extent, we are also using more frac sand, chemicals, and freight transportation services as a result of the 2008 expansion to support our pressure pumping operations.

        Excluding costs attributable to acquisitions, costs for supplies, consumable equipment and repairs and maintenance increased approximately $9.3$9.0 million for the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in these costs is due to higher prices from our vendors and increased repairs and maintenance as a result of higher utilizationresulting from the preparation of our assets.

        Pressure pumping supplieswell servicing assets for increased utilization and equipment, which consist primarily of frac sand, chemicals, and the related costs to transport those items, increased approximately $9.2 million, or 41.6%, during the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007. Like fuel, the primary driver in the increase in these costs is the rise in commodity prices; to a lesser extent, we are also using more of these products during 2008 to support the expansion of our pressure pumpingwell servicing operations. Additionally, our freight vendors are passing along the increases in their fuel prices to us through fuel surcharges, thereby increasing our freight costs.

        Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $11.6$11.5 million during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the secondthird quarter of 2007. Acquisitions made during the last 12previous twelve months contributed approximately $7.9$8.5 million of depreciation and amortization expense during the secondthird quarter of 2008. The remainder of the increase can be attributed to our larger fixed asset base; since the end of the secondthird quarter of 2007, we have cumulatively spent approximately $165.1$175.0 million on capital expenditures.

        General and administrative expenses increased $2.1$5.9 million, or 3.7%10.4%, to $58.2$62.5 million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, compared to $56.2$56.6 million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007. General and administrative expense was 11.6%11.7% of revenue for the secondthird quarter of

        General and administrative expenses associated with businesses that we acquired during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and the second quarter of 2008previous twelve months were approximately $3.4$3.6 million during the



second third quarter of 2008. These costs were primarily comprised of employee compensation costs and travel expenses associated with the integration of these businesses into our operations.costs.

        Excluding acquisitions, general and administrative costsexpenses associated with non-equity employee compensation, which includes salaries, cash bonuses, health insurance, 401(k) fees and payroll taxes, increased approximately $7.0$8.0 million, or 38.5%, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 30,same period in 2007. The increase was the result of the expansion of our business development efforts (approximately $1.8($1.8 million), which included approximately $1.0 million of costs resulting from the reassignment of certain operational employees previously classified as direct costs, and approximately $0.8 million resulting from the hiring of additional employees plusinvolved in the business development effort. The $8.0 million increase is also due to increased incentive compensation based onresulting from a larger bonus pool and higher base wage rates ($3.24.2 million), the expansion of our international operations in Mexico and Argentina ($1.11.4 million), and other miscellaneous compensationpayroll taxes related to these items ($0.90.6 million). Excluding the reassigment of certain employees, additional personnel hired to expand our business development group and general and administrative employees added from acquisitions, corporate general and administrative headcount remained largely unchanged from the secondthird quarter of 2007.

        The increase in equity-basedEquity-based compensation was attributable$2.9 million during the third quarter of 2008 and increased by $0.2 million during the third quarter of 2008 compared to newthe same period in 2007 as a result of increased expense recognition for equity awards granted to certain of our employees sinceduring August 2007 and subsequent periods. Offsetting the secondincreased expense from new awards was the vesting of awards subsequent to September 30, 2007 and a $0.9 million benefit recognized during the third quarter of 2007, as well as increased compensation associated with2008 from awards that are accounted for as liabilities whose value is calculated based on the price of our common stock, partially offset by awards that vestedstock. Absent the benefit recognized during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 that are not contributing to compensation expense during the second quarter of 2008.2008 from equity awards accounted for as liabilities, equity-based compensation increased by $1.1 million.

        Our professional fees declined approximately $9.7$6.8 million for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007. Since the completion of our delayed financial reporting process during 2007, our professional fees paid for legal, accounting and consulting services have declined significantly.

        Other general and administrative expense increased by $0.9 million and includes a $3.2 million charge recognized during the third quarter of 2008 in connection with an ongoing sales tax audit concerning state sales taxes not collected from the Company's customers and not remitted to the appropriate state agency. Also included in the $0.9 million increase in general and administrative expense is a $1.3 million net benefit related to the settlement of on-going legal matters and the continued refinement of liabilities recognized for litigation that is deemed probable and estimable.


        Interest expense increased $1.1$2.6 million, or 12.4%32.4%, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to increased debt levels and a higher weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt.levels.

        Interest income declineddecreased approximately $1.6 million to $0.2 million for the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to $1.8$1.9 million for the secondthird quarter of 2007. The declinedecrease in interest income is primarily attributable to the reduction in our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments which were used during the fourth quarter of 2007 to acquire Moncla Well Service, Inc. and related entities.Moncla.

        Other income and expense, net increased approximately $2.3$1.7 million to other income, net of $1.8$2.2 million during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to other expense, net of $0.5$0.4 million in the secondthird quarter of 2007. The increase in other income,expense, net is primarily attributable to our portion of the earnings ofincreased losses from our equity-method investment in IROC and foreign currency transaction gainslosses from our operations in Canada, Mexico and Argentina.international operations.

        Our income tax expense decreased $2.9increased $5.1 million, or 9.5%21.5%, to $27.4$29.1 million for the secondthird quarter of 2008 from $30.3$23.9 million for the secondthird quarter of 2007. The decreaseincrease in income tax expense during the secondthird quarter of 2008 is primarily attributable to lowerincreased taxable income for the period. Our effective tax rates were 38.5%37.5% and 38.7%40.0% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.respectively, and decreased during the third quarter of 2008 as a result of new information that allowed the Company to claim incremental tax deductions for the calculation of taxes owed under the revised Texas Franchise tax.


        For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, our net income was $78.5$127.0 million, which represents a 21.8%6.8% decrease from the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007. Our earnings per fully diluted share for the period was $0.61$1.00 per share compared to $0.75$1.02 per share for the same period in 2007. The decline in earnings was primarily attributable to increased labor andemployee compensation costs, fuel costs, increased depreciation and amortization expense,pressure pumping supplies and higher general and administrativeconsumable equipment costs partiallythat were not fully offset by higher revenues.increased profits from acquisitions, organic growth, price increases and lower professional fees.

        Businesses acquiredAcquisitions made during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and the second quarter of 2008 contributed approximately $98.0 million to the increase in well servicing revenues during the sixprevious twelve months increased our nine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008. Other increases in well servicing revenues were attributable to the expansion of our cased-hole electric wireline business, whose revenues increased approximately $8.3 million during the first half of 2008 compared to the same period of 2007, and the expansion of our international operations in Mexico, which contributed $15.4 million of revenue during the first two quarters of 2008. Excluding these items, well servicing revenue declined approximately $12.8by $150.5 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. This decline was caused by lower activity levels and pricing pressures during the first half of 2008 for our legacy domestic well servicing businesses in many of our core markets, partially offset by higher utilization and rate increases for our operations in Argentina.

        Revenues from our pressure pumping operations increased $22.4segment revenue by $4.0 million or 14.8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. During 2007, we expanded our pressure pumping operations in the Barnett Shale, and this segment saw a corresponding increase in the number of frac jobs performed for our customers. Offsetting the increase in frac revenue was a decline in the number of cement jobs performed by this segment and pricing pressures from increased competition.

        Weather, including Hurricanes Ike and Gustav, impacted our domestic well servicing operations in 2007. The acquisitionparts of Hydra-WalkTexas, Louisiana and Oklahoma by significantly reducing the Company's operations in those impacted areas during the second quarter of 2008 contributed approximately $1.1 million to the increase in fishing and rental revenues during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008. Excluding the Hydra-Walk acquisition, revenues increased approximately $6.6 million. The increase ininclement weather also significantly impacted our fishing and rental revenue is due to the combination of poor weatheroperations in the first quarterGulf Coast by preventing some of 2007, which hampered the operations of this segment, and a changeour fishing crews from operating in the product mix during the first halfGulf of 2008, which saw this segment perform more reverse unit and offshore fishing jobs, which have higher pricing than other types of work performed by this segment.Mexico.

        Direct expenses attributable to businesses acquired during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and the second quarter of 2008previous twelve months contributed approximately $64.9$103.9 million to the increase in direct expenses during the first halfnine months of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. These direct expenses were comprised of employee compensation ($37.961.9 million), supplies, equipment, and maintenance ($16.425.8 million), self-insurance costs ($4.26.1 million), fuel ($3.25.0 million) and other direct expenses ($3.25.1 million).

        Excluding acquisitions, direct employee compensation, which includes salaries, cash bonuses, health insurance, 401(k) costs and payroll taxes, increased approximately $19.5$35.4 million during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the sixsame period in 2007. Our expansion in Mexico generated $5.3 million of the $35.4 million increase during the nine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company incurred approximately $2 million of retroactive union wage increases that have not yet been recovered from our Argentine customers. Excluding these items, direct employee compensation increased 7.1% during the first nine months of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The labor market for our employees continues to be extremely tight, and our employees have been consistently been targeted by our competition due to their high quality. As a result, we have increased wage rates for our employees in order to retain them, hired new crews to keep up with customer demand, and have had to incur recruiting costs to replace those employees who were lost to our competitors and to other industries.

        OurExcluding acquisitions, our fuel costs increased $16.9$28.0 million, or 48.5%52.4%, during the first halfnine months of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. SinceWe estimate the endaverage per-gallon cost of diesel fuel during the second quarterfirst nine months of 2007, we estimate that our per-gallon price of fuel2008 has increased approximately 54%.42.5% compared to the same period in 2007. To a lesser extent, our fuel costs have also risen due to the increased amount of fuel used as a result of the increase in our rig and truck hours.


        CostsPressure pumping supplies and equipment consists primarily of frac sand, chemicals and the related costs to transport those items. These costs, excluding costs attributable to acquisitions, increased approximately $24.1 million, or 36.5%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in fuel prices resulted in higher operating costs for our pressure pumping segment as the prices for raw materials increased in addition to the shipping and transportation costs for goods and services purchased. To a lesser extent, we are also using more frac sand, chemicals and freight transportation services as a result of the expansion of our pressure pumping operations.

        Excluding acquisitions, costs for supplies, consumable equipment and repairs and maintenance costs have increased approximately $10.7$19.7 million for the first halfnine months of 2008, compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in these costs is due to higher prices from our vendors and increased repairs and maintenance as a result of higher utilizationresulting from the preparation of our assets.

        Pressure pumping supplieswell servicing assets for increased utilization and equipment, which consist primarily of frac sand, chemicals, and the related costs to transport those items, increased approximately $14.4 million, or 33.6%, during the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. Like fuel, the primary driver in the increase in these costs is the rise in commodity prices; we are also using more of these products during 2008 to support the expansion of our pressure pumpingwell servicing operations.

        Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $21.9$33.4 million during the first sixnine months of 2008, compared to the same period in 2007. Acquisitions made during the third and fourth quarters of 2007and first half of 2008previous twelve months contributed approximately $14.0$25.5 million of depreciation and amortization expense during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008. The remainder of the increase can be


attributed to our larger fixed asset base; since the end of the secondthird quarter of 2007, we have cumulatively spent approximately $165.1$175.0 million on capital expenditures.

        General and administrative expenses associated with businesses that we acquired during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and the second quarter of 2008previous twelve months were approximately $6.8$10.4 million during the first halfnine months of 2008. These costs were primarily comprised of employee compensation costs, communication costs bad debt expense and travel expenses associated with the integration of these businesses into our operations.

        Excluding acquired businesses,acquisitions, general and administrative costs associated with non-equity employee compensation, which is comprised of salaries, cash bonuses, health insurance, 401(k) fees and payroll taxes, increased approximately $12.2$20.2 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 30,same period in 2007. The increase in non-equity based compensation was the result of the expansion of our business development efforts (approximately $3.4($5.3 million), which included approximately $1.9$2.9 million in costs attributable to the reassignment of certain operational employees previously classified as direct costs, and increased approximately $1.5$2.4 million resulting from the hiring of additional employees plusinvolved in the



business development effort. The $20.2 million increase is also due to increased incentive compensation based on a larger bonus pool and higher base wage rates ($4.18.2 million), the expansion of our international operations in Mexico and Argentina ($1.83.3 million), payroll taxes related to these items (approximately $1.4($2.0 million), and other miscellaneous compensation related items ($1.51.4 million). Excluding the reassignment of certain employees, additional personnel hired to expand our business development group and general and administrative employees added from acquisitions, corporate general and administrative headcount remained largely unchanged from the first half ofnine months ended September 30, 2007.

        The $3.6 million increase in equity-based compensation was attributable to new equity awards granted to certain of our employees since the second quarter of 2007, as well as an increase in the fair value of certain awards classified as liabilities whose value is dependent on the price of our common stock. Partially offsetting these increases were awards that vested during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 that are not contributing to compensation expenseeither during the first halfnine months of 2008.2007 or awards that vested during the first nine months of 2008 that were not outstanding for a comparable period during the first nine months of 2008 or 2007.

        Our professional fees declined approximately $6.7$13.5 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007. Since the completion of our delayed financial reporting process during 2007, our professional fees paid for legal, accounting and consulting services have declined significantly.

        Excluding acquisitions, other general and administrative expense increased by $3.0 million and includes a $3.2 million charge recognized during the third quarter of 2008 in connection with an ongoing sales tax audit concerning state sales taxes not collected from the Company's customers and not remitted to the appropriate state agency. Also included in the $3.0 million increase in general and administrative expense is a $1.3 million net benefit related to the settlement of on-going legal matters and the continued refinement of liabilities recognized for litigation that is deemed probable and estimable.

        Interest expense increased $1.8$4.4 million, or 9.8%16.6%, for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to increased debt levels and a higher weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt.

        Interest income declineddecreased approximately $3.0$4.7 million to $0.7$0.9 million for the first two quarters ofnine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $3.7$5.6 million for the first two quarters ofnine months ended September 30, 2007. The declinedecrease in interest income is primarily attributable to the reduction in our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, as a result of cash payments during the fourth quarter of 2007 in connection with our acquisition of Moncla Well Service, Inc.Moncla.

        Other expense, net increased approximately $0.9 million to $1.2 million during the first nine months of 2008 compared to $0.3 million during the same period of 2007. The increase in other expense, net is primarily attributable to lower income from our equity-method investment in IROC and related entities.foreign currency transaction losses from our international operations.

        Our income tax expense decreased $12.9$7.8 million, or 20.6%9.0%, to $49.9$79.0 million for the first halfnine months of 2008 from $62.8$86.8 million for the first halfnine months of 2007, primarily due to lower taxable income. Our effective tax rates were 38.9%38.4% and 38.5%38.9% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Our effective tax rate has increaseddecreased because new information became available that allowed the Company to claim incremental tax deductions for the calculation of taxes owed under the overall contraction of our margins. Our taxable income has decreased primarily due to margin contractions in certain of our core segments, partially offset by higher taxable income for our pressure pumping operations, and the acquisitions we made during the third and fourth quarters of 2007 and the first half of 2008.revised Texas Franchise tax.

        Excluding acquisitions, direct employee compensation for our Well Servicing segment increased approximately $12.4$12.5 million, or 10.7%, during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the secondthird quarter of 2007. Our expansion in Mexico generated $2.3 million of the $12.5 million increase during the third quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2008 the Company incurred approximately $2 million of retroactive union wage increases that have not yet been recovered from our Argentine customers. Excluding these items, direct employee compensation increased 7.0% during the third quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007.

        The labor market for our employees continues to be extremely tight, and we have implemented wage rate increases in order to retain a quality workforce and prevent our competitors from hiring away our workers. Additionally, we have added crews in several of our operating locations in order to support the increased utilization of our equipment in those areas.

        FuelExcluding acquisitions, fuel costs for our Well Servicing segment increased approximately $6.9$8.0 million, or 49.8%57.7%, for the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 compared to the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2007.

Also contributing to the increase is the fact that we are using more fuel to support the increased utilization in certain of our core well servicing markets.

        Supplies,Excluding acquisitions, supplies, equipment and maintenance costs increased approximately $6.7$6.0 million, or 13.5%, for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007. The primary drivers of this increase are higher costs for the chemicals we use in our well servicing operations ($2.1 million), increased repairs and maintenance expense ($2.43.1 million) associatedand increased costs for equipment and supplies which is primarily related to our vendors charging us higher prices for chemicals used in the well servicing process. Additionally, repairs and maintenance expense increased in conjunction with the increased utilization of certainpreparation of our well servicing assets to allow for increased utilization and higher prices fromexpansion of our vendors, increased costs for equipment rentals ($0.6 million), and other miscellaneous items ($1.6 million).well servicing operations.

Excluding the impact from acquisitions, revenues from our pressure pumping operations increased $12.3 million, or 15.9%, for the three months ended June 30,third quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. IncreasedThe $12.3 million increase in revenue in our Pressure Pumping segment is primarily attributable tothe result of the addition of several frac crews to serve our customer baseequipment during August 2007 and February 2008. As a result of the frac equipment additions, the quantity of frac jobs we performed in the Barnett Shale region, partially offsetthird quarter of 2008 increased compared to the third quarter of 2007, leading to higher revenues. Revenue also increased as a result of price increases initiated by declinesthe Company for pressure pumping services that involve the use of certain materials such as sand and other items, in cementing operationswhich our costs to acquire those materials have increased. Offsetting the increases in revenue resulting from equipment additions and pricing pressure dueprices increases for certain materials, are increases in the discounts offered to increased competition.some of our customers to maintain an adequate utilization rate of our equipment and a decrease in the number of acid and cement jobs performed during the third quarter of 2008 compared to the third quarter of 2007.

        Excluding acquisitions, sand, chemicals and freight costs for our Pressure Pumping segment increased approximately $9.3$9.6 million during the secondthird quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in these costs was driven by higher usage and increased commodity prices, as well as the fact that in the secondthird quarter of 2008, the Pressure Pumping segment began using coated sand,proppants which isare more expensive than normal sand. Our freight costs have also increased as a result of increased fuel costs, which increased the cost of shipping our frac sand.

        FuelExcluding acquisitions, fuel costs for our Pressure Pumping segment increased approximately $2.7$2.5 million for the secondthird quarter of 2008, compared to the same period in 2007.

IncreasedThe $34.7 million


increase in revenue in our Pressure Pumping segment is primarily attributable tothe result of the addition of several frac crews to serve our customer baseequipment during February 2007, August 2007, and February 2008. As a result of the frac equipment additions, the quantity of frac jobs we performed in the Barnett Shale region, partially offsetfirst nine months of 2008 increased compared to the first nine months of 2007, leading to higher revenues. Revenue also increased as a result of price increases initiated by declinesthe Company for pressure pumping services that involve the use of certain materials, such as sand and other items, in cementing operationswhich our costs to acquire these materials have increased. Offsetting the increases in revenue resulting from equipment additions and pricing pressure dueprice increases for certain materials, are increases in the discounts offered to increased competition.some of our customers to maintain an adequate utilization rate of our equipment and a decrease in the number of acid and cement jobs performed during the first nine months of 2008 compared to the first nine months of 2007.

        Excluding acquisitions, costs for frac sand, chemicals and freight increased approximately $14.3$24.1 million for the first halfnine months of 2008 compared to the first halfnine months of 2007. The increase in sand costs was attributable to higher commodity prices, the change to the use of coated sand, which is more expensive than normal sand, and increased sand and chemical volumes purchased to support the expansion of our pressure pumping operations in the Barnett Shale and other formations. Freight costs increased due to higher volumes of sand being transported and increased pricing from our freight vendors.

        FuelExcluding acquisitions, fuel costs for the Pressure Pumping segment increased approximately $4.4$6.9 million during the first halfnine months of 2008 compared to the first halfnine months of 2007.

Sources of Liquidity

        Our sources of liquidity include our current cash and cash equivalents, availability under our Senior Secured Credit Facility, and internally generated cash flows from operations. During the fourth quarter of 2007, we refinanced our indebtedness. Weindebtedness and issued $425.0 million of 8.375% Senior Notes (the "Notes") and used the proceeds from that issuance to retire our then-existing senior credit facility. The Notes have a coupon of 8.375%, do not require prepayments, and mature in 2014. We also entered into our current Senior Secured Credit Facility (see Note 8—"Long-Term Debt") during the fourth quarter of 2007. The Senior Secured Credit Facility consists of a revolving credit facility, a letter of credit sub-facility and a swing line facility up to an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million, all of which mature no later than 2012.

        During the secondthird quarter of 2008, we borrowed approximately $85.0$70.0 million under the revolving credit facility to finance our acquisition of WesternLeader, fund our initial investment in Geostream (funded in October 2008), and for general corporate purposes. We subsequently paid down approximately $35.0 million on the balance of the revolving credit facility with cash generated by our operations. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, $100.0$170.0 million of borrowings were outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $61.5$61.6 million of letters of credit issued under the letter of credit sub-facility were outstanding, which reduces the total borrowing capacity under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

LCPI, a subsidiary of Lehman, was a member of the syndicate of banks participating in our Senior Secured Credit Facility. LCPI's commitment was approximately 11% of the Company's total facility.

As of JulyOctober 31, 2008, we had $61.3$53.9 million of letters of credit issued under the letter of credit sub-facility and $203.7approximately $661.7 million of available borrowing capacity under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

        We believe that our liquidity position is strong. As of July 31, 2008, we had approximately $605.4 million of total long-term debt and capital leases, including notes payable to affiliates, and weaffiliates. Our availability under the Senior Secured Credit Facility as of October 31, 2008 was approximately $141.0 million. This availability reflects the reduction of approximately $17.3 million of unfunded commitments by LCPI.

        We believe that this amount is acceptable given our recent financial performance and our belief that industrythe anticipated activity levels for the remainder of 2008 should remain stable.2008.


Share Repurchase Plan

        In October 2007, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $300.0 million which is effective through March 31, 2009. From the inception of the program in November 2007 through JulyOctober 31, 2008, we have repurchased approximately 10.112.9 million shares of our common stock through open market transactions for an aggregate price of approximately $137.5$164.3 million. Share repurchases during the secondthird quarter of 2008 were approximately 1.8 million shares for an aggregate price of approximately $27.0$28.5 million. Share repurchases during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 were approximately 7.08.8 million shares for an aggregate price of approximately $92.3$120.8 million. Our repurchase program, as well as the amount and timing of future repurchases, is subject to market conditions, our financial condition, and our liquidity. Our Senior Secured Credit Facility permits us to make stock repurchases in excess of $200.0 million only if our consolidated debt to capitalization ratio (as defined) is below 50%; as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, that ratio was below 50%.

Future Cash Requirements

        For the remainder of 2008, we anticipate our cash requirements to include working capital needs, capital expenditures, acquisitions and the potential repurchase of our common stock. We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, our availability under our Senior Secured Credit Facility, and our internally generated cash flows from operations will be sufficient to finance the cash requirements of our current and near-term future operations, including the capital expenditures we have budgeted for the remainder of the year. We do not budget for acquisitions; however, we continuously evaluate opportunities that fit our specific acquisition profile. We anticipate financing any future acquisitions through a combination of our cash on hand, future cash flows from operations, and availability under our Senior Secured Credit Facility.


Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

        There have been no material changes in our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk from those disclosed in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

        As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act.Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designated to ensure that information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on thethis evaluation and the identification of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and discussed below, management concluded that, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures remained not effective.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We did not present other consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP as we were unable to identify with sufficient certainty the period(s) in 2003 or before in which to record certain write-offs and write-downs that were identified in our restatement process. Investors should refer to the 2003 Financial and Information Report for a full description of our restatement and financial reporting process through the date of that report. In the third quarter of 2007, we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (the "2006 Report"). Concurrently with that filing, we filed our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the years 2005 and 2006. In September 2007 we filed our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the first and second quarters of 2007, and, in November 2007, we filed our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2007. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 (the "2007 Report") was filed timely in February 2008, and our Quarterly ReportReports on Form 10-Q for the first quarterand second quarters of 2008 was filedwere also timely in May 2008.filed.

        In our 2003 Financial and Informational Report, we described numerous material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that we identified during the restatement and financial reporting process. In our 2006 Report, we reported that nine of the material weaknesses that we had previously identified remained as of December 31, 2006, and in our 2007 Report, we reported that some of these material weaknesses had been remediated and that seven existed at December 31, 2007.

        The material weaknesses identified in our internal control environment over financial reporting that existed at December 31, 2007, and the status of our remediation efforts through JuneSeptember 30, 2008, are described below:

         Financial Close and Reporting.    In response to the material weaknesses in the financial close and reporting process disclosed in the 2006 Report, we instituted substantial changes to our internal control



structure in these areas during 2007. These changes included adding additional personnel, adding analytical procedures and reviews, refining the methodologies for the preparation of our financial statements, adding reconciliations of our accounts and reconciliations between our general ledger and subledger systems, as well as increasing the availability of evidence for those controls operating. However, as a result of our delayed reporting in 2007 and the devotion of resources to completing our



required 2006 and 2007 filings, many of these improvements were not in place and evidenced as operating effectively until the financial close and reporting activities for the fourth quarter of 2007. Due to the timing of these improvements, sufficient instances of these controls in operation had not occurred for the controls to be assessed as effective at December 31, 2007. We have begun, but have not completed, our process of evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008; we2008. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. As a result,Until this process is completed, we cannot conclude that this material weakness had been remediated. Management believes that the remedial controls put in place in 2007, which continue in operation through the secondthird quarter of 2008, will be sufficient to remediate the previously identified material weaknesses in the financial close and reporting process.

         Authorizations of Expenditures.    In our 2006 Report, we determined that at December 31, 2006 multiple control deficiencies existed regarding our ability to appropriately ensure and evidence that expenditures, covering substantially all aspects of spending, were approved by the appropriate level of management in accordance with our established policies and, as a result, we identified this as a material weakness. During 2007, changes were made that included the establishment of approval authorities and automated controls in our procurement system. Notwithstanding these changes, certain deficiencies remained at December 31, 2007. The remaining deficiencies resulting in a material weakness at December 31, 2007, were our inability to ensure and evidence that (i) timely approvals occurred for expenditures made through our procurement system or (ii) that expenditures not made through our procurement system were appropriately approved in accordance with our policies. In addition to the changes previously discussed, we also instituted compensating controls in 2007, such as analytical procedures; however, these compensating controls were not all in place and evidenced as operating effectively until the financial close and reporting for the fourth quarter of 2007. We have begun, but have not yet completed, our process for evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008; as a result, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. Management believes that the remedial controls put in place in 2007, which continue in operation through the second quarter of 2008, will be sufficient to remediate previously identified material weaknesses related to authorizations of expenditures.

        In addition to these changes,Additionally, in the second quarter of 2008, we implemented an automated and paperless invoicing and approval process. Because the automated approvals and payments process eliminates manual approvals, we believe this process provides increased controls for authorization of expenditures. We have begun, but have not yet completed, our process for evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. Until this process is completed, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. Management believes that the remedial controls put in place in 2007 and the second quarter of 2008, which continue in operation through the third quarter of 2008, will be sufficient to remediate previously identified material weaknesses related to authorizations of expenditures.

         Recording of Revenues.    Due to the fact that our revenue process is heavily dependent upon manual reviews and approvals of credit terms, amounts to be billed and recorded, and adjustments for bad debts, we determined in our 2006 Report that a material weakness existed at December 31, 2006 regarding the recording of revenues in our 2006 Report.revenues. At December 31, 2007, we determined that a material weakness still existed in our revenue process because sufficient evidence of manual approvals at the field level necessary to evidence the recognition of revenues could not be adequately substantiated. During 2007, we instituted compensating controls such as more detailed analytical reviews of accrued revenues, analysis of aged receivables and account reconciliations of our revenue systems to our general ledger. Sufficient instances of these compensating controls in operation had not occurred for these compensating controls to be assessed as effective at December 31, 2007. We have begun, but have not yet completed, our process for evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008; we2008. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. As a



result,Until this process is completed, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. Management believes that the compensating controls put in place in 2007, which continue in operation through the secondthird quarter of 2008, are sufficient to compensate for the identified deficiencies in approvals and that with the passage of sufficient close and reporting cycles to evidence operation of these controls, the material weakness related to recording of revenues will be remediated.


         Property, Plant & Equipment ("PP&E").    In our 2006 Report, we determined that a material weakness existed at December 31, 2006 regarding the recording of PP&E. In 2007, substantial changes were made to our processes and controls related to the accounting for PP&E; however, for two areas of our accounting for PP&E—the timing of assets being placed in service and the timing of recognition of gains and losses and approval for asset dispositions—we believe that a material weakness remains. Due to the design and utilization of our procurement system and practices, certain final costs for an asset may not be captured in a timely manner. As a result of this, the asset may be physically placed in service prior to all cost information being received. This delay in accumulating necessary cost information may delay the beginning of depreciation expense. Additionally, while we have implemented controls, including counts and observations, to ensure that information regarding asset dispositions is captured and recorded, obtaining evidence of appropriate approval for the disposition as well as the timing of the receipt of that information may result in delays in the recording of the disposition, which could potentially cross reporting periods.

        In the second quarter of 2008, we implemented enhancements to our control process to evaluate the status of assets recorded as work in process to ensure that the associated depreciation expense is correct in all material respects. We also implemented enhancements to our disposal process to ensure that the associated gains and losses are reflected in the appropriate periods. We believe that these changes will be sufficient to remediate the previously identified material weakness with respect to PP&E. We have begun, but have not completed, our process of evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008 and we2008. We anticipate that this process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. As a result,Until this process is completed, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. We believe that the changes mentioned above will be sufficient to remediate the previously identified material weakness with respect to PP&E.

         User Developed Applications.    In the course of preparing our consolidated financial statements, numerous spreadsheets and database programs ("User Developed Applications") are employed. The User Developed Applications are utilized by us in calculating estimates, reconciling payroll hours, tracking inventory costs and making cost allocations, among other things. At December 31, 2006, we identified a material weakness as most User Developed Applications were not secured as to access, logical security, changes or data integrity. ToIn 2007, management began an effort to identify all of its User Developed Applications and remediate the weakness that had been identified through controls in the User Developed Applications themselves. Also, to mitigate the associated risk for situations where the above controls could not be implemented, compensating controls were put in place; however, for many of these compensating controls, sufficient instances had not occurred for these controls to be assessed as effective at December 31, 2007. In 2007, management began an effort to identify all of its User Developed Applications and remediate the weakness that had been identified through controls in the User Developed Applications themselves or compensating controls. These efforts, along with elimination of certain User Developed Applications from some of our critical processes, continue into 2008.

        During the third quarter of 2008, management implemented a formal financial spreadsheet controls policy to govern the development, use and control of critical financial spreadsheets.

        We have begun, but have not completed, our process of evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. Until this process is completed, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. Management believes that the controls and compensating controls put in place in 2007 and continuing into 2008 will be sufficient to remediate these deficiencies. We have begun, but have not completed, our process of evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008. As a result, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008.deficiencies

         Application Access and Segregation of Duties.    In our 2006 Report, we determined that material weaknesses existed at December 31, 2006 in four aspects of information technology general controls over security and segregation of duties of our primary financial systems. These include security administration procedures, administrator access privileges, database and file access, and password controls. The weaknesses in these information technology general control areas were further evidenced



by, or related to, deficiencies in our various access controls at the financial system level, causing inappropriate access and lack of appropriate segregation of duties in some of our significant processes.



In 2007 we implemented management reports for business owner review as well as administrative controls and procedures. Additionally, in late 2007 we put compensating controls in place, such as analytical reviews. These controls were not fully effective in remediating the identified weakness.

        In the second quarter of 2008, management implemented changes to its business owner review of access and segregation of duties across the systems we utilize andutilize. Management believes that these changes will enhance the controls associated with systems access and segregation of duties. In addition to these changes, management believes the compensating controls put in place will be sufficient to compensate for the identified deficiencies in access and segregation of duties. We have begun, but have not completed, our process of evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008. As a result, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. Until this process is completed, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated.

         Payroll.    We determined that at December 31, 2007, a material weakness in our system of internal controls existed related to certain control activities associated with our payroll process. The weaknesses identified related to lack of appropriate training and competency of certain personnel involved in the process, lack of appropriate documentation concerning hours worked or pay rate changes, and deficiencies in reconciliations related to payroll information. These deficiencies had been previously identified in our 2006 Report as part ofAccount ReconciliationsandAuthorization for Expenditures.Expenditures

. In 2007, we continued our process to improve our data quality and controls surrounding our payroll process, beginning with system enhancements and organizational changes. In late 2007, we initiated another phase of this process, which encompasses changes to payroll practices, further organizational changes and the replacement of our current payroll system. These changes continued into 2008, and in the second quarter, we made further organizational changes, including adding personnel to the payroll group. Due to the nature and functionality of our current payroll system, our cutover to a new payroll system has been delayed until the first quarter of 2009. We believe that these changes and compensating controls put in place in 2007 will further strengthen our control structure and increase our efficiency as well as transparency into payroll related data, will remediate this material weakness with respect to payroll. We have begun, but have not completed, our process of evaluating the operating effectiveness of these controls for 2008. As a result, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated. We anticipate that this evaluation process will be largely completed in the fourth quarter of 2008. Until this process is completed, we cannot conclude that this deficiency has been remediated.

        Management is committed to achieving effective internal control over financial reporting. While our remediation efforts continue, we will rely on additional substantive procedures and other measures, as needed, to provide assurances that the financial statements presented are prepared in accordance with GAAP. We do not believe that our remediation efforts have resulted in additional material costs in the first twothree quarters of 2008 or should result in additional material costs in the remainderfourth quarter of 2008.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

        Except for thosethe implementation of a formal financial spreadsheet controls policy described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings.

        Since June 2004,During the third quarter of 2008, we were named as a defendant in six class action complaints for alleged violations of federal securities laws, which have been filed in federal district court in Texas. They are as follows:

        These six actions were consolidated into one action. On November 1, 2005, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended class action complaint. The complaint was brought on behalf of a putative class of purchasers of our securities between April 29, 2003 and June 4, 2004. The complaint named Key, Francis D. John, Royce W. Mitchell, Richard J. Alario and James J. Byerlotzer as defendants. The complaint generally alleged that we made false and misleading statements and omitted material information from our public statements and SEC reports during the class period in violationsettlement of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including alleged: (i) overstatement of revenues, net income, and earnings per share, (ii) failure to take write-downs of assets, consisting of primarily idle equipment, (iii) failure to amortize the Company's goodwill, (iv) failure to disclose that the Company lacked adequate internal controls and therefore was unable to ascertain the true financial condition of the Company, (v) material inflation of the Company's financial results at all relevant times, (vi) misrepresentation of the value of acquired businesses, and (vii) failure to disclose misappropriation of funds by employees.

        In addition,following four shareholderstockholder derivative suits were filed by certain of our shareholders. They are as follows:suits:


        The first derivative suit was filed on August 9, 2004 in state court in Midland, Texas. Two other derivative suitsderivatives were filed beginning in federal court in El Paso, Texas on December 10,June 2004 and subsequently transferred to federal court in Midland, Texas and consolidated by agreement of the parties. Following dismissal of those two actions for failure to make a demand, a fourth derivative suit was filed in Texas state court in Harris County, Texas on May 22, 2007. Francis D. John, David J. Breazzano, Kevin P. Collins, William D. Fertig, W. Phillip Marcum, Ralph S. Michael III, J. Robinson West, James J. Byerlotzer, Royce W. Mitchell, and Richard J. Alario were named as defendants in one or more of those actions. The actions were filed by individual shareholdersstockholders purporting to act on our behalf, asserting various claims against the named officer and director defendants. The derivative actions generally allege that we made false and misleading statements and omitted material information from our public statements and SEC reports in violation of the same facts as those in the shareholder class action suits. Those suits also allegeExchange Act, breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment by these defendants.

        As further discussed in Note 10 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, since June 2004, we had also been named in six stockholder class action suits. On September 7, 2007, we reached agreements in principle to settle all pending securitiesboth the above listed derivative actions and the then-pending stockholder class action and derivative lawsuits in consideration of payments totaling $16.6 million in exchange for full and complete releases for all defendants, of which Keythe Company will be required to pay approximately $1.1 million. WeAs previously reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, we received final approval of the settlement of the shareholder andstockholder class action claims by the court on March 6, 2008. On August 8, 2008, and preliminary court approval on the derivative action on April 18, 2008. A hearing forwe received final approval on the settlement of the above listed derivative settlement was held on August 1, 2008. No objections were made by any party during the hearing.actions. The Company anticipates thathas made the final order dismissingrequired payment of the settlement amounts with respect to the stockholder class action suits and the derivative actions will be signed inmatters and has no further obligations under the third quarter. Following dismissal, allsettlement agreements with respect to disbursement of the settlement funds. Therefore, all litigation in both the shareholderstockholder class action and the above listed derivative matters will be concluded, and if there are no actions taken to reconsider the order that has now been signed by the court, the court-approved administrator in these matters will begin distribution of payments to eligible class members according to the terms of the settlement. We anticipate this will also be completed in the third quarter of 2008.concluded.

        In addition to various suits and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business, we continue to be involved in litigation with some of our former executive officers as well as a class action lawsuit in California.officers. We do not believe that


the disposition of any of these items, including litigation with former management, will result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


Item 1A.    Risk Factors.

        There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K dated as of, and filed with the SEC on, February 29, 2008. For a discussion of ourthese risk factors, see Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

        However, we have identified the following additional risk factor:

The recent volatility in oil and gas prices, the deteriorating credit markets and disruptions in the financial system and U.S. and the global economic environment may adversely impact our business.

        As a result of recent volatility in oil and natural gas prices and the substantial uncertainty due to the deteriorating credit markets and disruptions in the financial system and the U.S. and global economic environment, our customers may reduce their spending on exploration and development drilling. Further, it is uncertain whether customers, vendors and suppliers will be able to access financing necessary to sustain their current level of operations, fulfill their commitments and fund future operations and obligations. The rate at which the global economy may slow is uncertain, but the deteriorating economic environment could impact demand for oilfield services and cause the oilfield services industry to cycle into a downturn. These conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

         Stock Repurchases.    During the secondthird quarter of 2008, the Company repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of its common stock. The repurchases were made pursuantprimarily related to the Company's $300.0 million share repurchase program, which the Company announced in October 2007. The program expires March 31, 2009.
