NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Exterran Holdings, Inc. (“we” or “Exterran”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) are not required in these interim financial statements and have been condensed or omitted. Management believes that the information furnished includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. That report contains a more comprehensive summary of our accounting policies. The interim results reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

Correction of Misclassification in the Statement of Cash Flows

We received $289.9 million of net proceeds from the sale of common units of Exterran Partners, L.P. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Partnership”) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. These net proceeds were previously reported in our consolidated statement of cash flows as cash flows from investing activities. We have subsequently determined that the net proceeds from the sale of Partnership common units during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 should have been reported as cash flows from financing activities. This correction had no impact on cash flows from operating activities. The impact of the reclassification on the statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is shown below (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
	Investing			Financing
Net Cash Provided By (Used In)	Activities			Activities
As previously reported	$	150,823		$	(237,806	)
Increase (decrease)	(289,908		)	289,908
As corrected	$	(139,085	)	$	52,102

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contract operations is recorded when earned, which generally occurs monthly at the time the monthly service is provided to customers in accordance with the contracts. Aftermarket services revenue is recorded as products are delivered and title is transferred or services are performed for the customer.

Fabrication revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method when the applicable criteria are met. We estimate percentage-of-completion for compressor and accessory fabrication on a direct labor hour to total labor hour basis. Production and processing equipment fabrication percentage-of-completion is estimated using the direct labor hour to total labor hour and the cost to total cost basis. The duration of these projects is typically between three and 36 months. Fabrication revenue is recognized using the completed contract method when the applicable criteria of the percentage-of-completion method are not met. Fabrication revenue from a claim is recognized to the extent that costs related to the claim have been incurred, when collection is probable and can be reliably estimated.

Earnings (Loss) Attributable to Exterran Stockholders Per Common Share

Basic income (loss) attributable to Exterran stockholders per common share is computed by dividing income (loss) attributable to Exterran common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings (loss) per share following the two-class method. Therefore, restricted share awards that contain the right to vote and receive dividends are included in the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share, unless their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Diluted income (loss) attributable to Exterran stockholders per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental common stock equivalents attributed to outstanding options and warrants to purchase

Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash, restricted cash, receivables, payables, interest rate swaps and debt. At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximated their carrying value as reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We estimate the fair value of our fixed rate debt based on quoted market yields in inactive markets or model derived calculations using market yields observed in active markets, which are Level 2 inputs. We estimate the fair value of our floating rate debt using a discounted cash flow analysis based on interest rates offered on loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality, which are Level 3 inputs. See Note 9 for additional information regarding the fair value hierarchy. A summary of the fair value and carrying value of our debt as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is shown in the table below (in thousands):

	September 30, 2012				December 31, 2011
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Fixed rate debt	$	809,138	$	854,000	$	794,039	$	792,000
Floating rate debt	896,500		893,000		979,000		989,000
Total debt	$	1,705,638	$	1,747,000	$	1,773,039	$	1,781,000

GAAP requires that all derivative instruments (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recognized in the balance sheet at fair value, and that changes in such fair values be recognized in earnings (loss) unless specific hedging criteria are met. Changes in the values of derivatives that meet these hedging criteria will ultimately offset related earnings effects of the hedged item pending recognition in earnings.

2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In May 2009, the Venezuelan government enacted a law that reserves to the State of Venezuela certain assets and services related to hydrocarbon activities, which included substantially all of our assets and services in Venezuela. The law provides that the reserved activities are to be performed by the State, by the State-owned oil company, Petroleos de Venezuela S.A. (“PDVSA”), or its affiliates, or through mixed companies under the control of PDVSA or its affiliates. The law authorizes PDVSA or its affiliates to take possession of the assets and take over control of those operations related to the reserved activities as a step prior to the commencement of an expropriation process, and permits the national executive of Venezuela to decree the total or partial expropriation of shares or assets of companies performing those services.

In June 2009, PDVSA commenced taking possession of our assets and operations in a number of our locations in Venezuela and by the end of the second quarter of 2009, PDVSA had assumed control over substantially all of our assets and operations in Venezuela.

In June 2009, our Spanish subsidiary delivered to the Venezuelan government and PDVSA an official notice of dispute relating to the seized assets and investments under the Agreement between Spain and Venezuela for the Reciprocal Promotion and Protection of Investments and under Venezuelan law. In March 2010, our Spanish subsidiary filed a request for the institution of an arbitration proceeding against Venezuela with the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (“ICSID”) related to the seized assets and investments, which was registered by ICSID in April 2010. The arbitration hearing occurred in July 2012.

As a result of PDVSA taking possession of substantially all of our assets and operations in Venezuela, we recorded asset impairments during the year ended December 31, 2009 totaling $329.7 million ($379.7 million excluding the insurance proceeds of $50 million). These charges primarily related to receivables, inventory, fixed assets and goodwill, and are reflected in Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax. GAAP requires that our claim be accounted for as a gain contingency with no benefit being recorded until resolved. Accordingly, we did not include any compensation we may receive for our seized assets and operations from Venezuela in recording the loss on expropriation.

In August 2012, our Venezuelan subsidiary completed the sale of its previously nationalized assets to PDVSA Gas for a purchase price of approximately $441.7 million. We received an initial payment of $176.7 million in cash at closing, of which we remitted $50.0 million to the insurance company from which we collected $50.0 million in January 2010 under the terms of an insurance policy we maintained for the risk of expropriation. The remaining amount of approximately $265.0 million due to us is payable in quarterly cash installments through the third quarter of 2016. We have not recognized amounts payable to us by PDVSA Gas as a receivable and will therefore recognize quarterly payments received in the future as income from discontinued operations in the periods such payments are received. The proceeds from the sale of assets are not subject to Venezuelan national taxes due to an exemption allowed under the Venezuelan Reserve Law applicable to expropriation settlements. In addition, and in connection with the sale, we and the Venezuelan government agreed to waive rights to assert certain claims against each other. We therefore recorded a reduction in previously unrecognized tax benefits, resulting in a $15.5 million benefit reflected in Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Table of Contents

In connection with the sale of these assets, we have agreed to suspend the arbitration proceeding previously filed by our Spanish subsidiary against Venezuela pending payment in full by PDVSA Gas of the purchase price for these nationalized assets.

The expropriation of our business in Venezuela meets the criteria established for recognition as discontinued operations under accounting standards for presentation of financial statements. Therefore, our Venezuela contract operations and aftermarket services businesses are reflected as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2012, we committed to a plan to sell our contract operations and aftermarket services businesses in Canada as part of our continued emphasis on simplification and focus on our core business. We expect this sale to be completed within the next twelve months. Our Canadian contract operations and aftermarket services businesses are reflected as discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements. These operations were previously included in our North American contract operations and aftermarket services business segments. In conjunction with the planned disposition, we recorded impairments of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, and inventory, that totaled $27.7 million and $68.5 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The impairment charges are reflected in Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax.

The table below summarizes the operating results of discontinued operations (in thousands):

3. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

In June 2012, we committed to a plan to sell our subsidiary in the United Kingdom (Exterran (UK) Ltd.) as part of our continued emphasis on simplification and focus on our core business. At that time, we expected the sale to be completed within the next twelve months. Our assets and liabilities associated with this subsidiary were reflected as assets or liabilities held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2012. In conjunction with the planned disposition, we recorded an impairment of long-lived assets that totaled $1.5 million during the second quarter of 2012. The impairment charges are reflected in Long-lived asset impairment in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

After conducting a marketing and sale process of the business, we no longer believe it is probable we will sell the assets and liabilities of our UK subsidiary within one year which is a required criterion for classifying them as held for sale. We remain committed to disposing this business, and although a sale of the subsidiary is still a viable alternative, our level of certainty on timing and structure of this disposal has changed from our evaluation at June 30, 2012. As a result, the assets and liabilities of our UK subsidiary are reflected as assets held and used in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012.

6. INVESTMENTS IN NON-CONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

We own a minority interest in WilPro Energy Services (PIGAP II) Limited (“PIGAP II”) and WilPro Energy Services (El Furrial) Limited (“El Furrial”), joint ventures that provided natural gas compression and injection services in Venezuela. In March 2009, these joint ventures recorded impairments on their assets due to lack of payments from their only customer, PDVSA. Accordingly, we reviewed our expected cash flows related to these two joint ventures and determined in March 2009 that the fair value of our investment in PIGAP II and El Furrial had declined and that we had a loss in our investment that was not temporary. Therefore, we recorded an impairment charge of $90.1 million ($81.7 million net of tax) to write-off our investments in PIGAP II and El Furrial. In May 2009, PDVSA assumed control over the assets of PIGAP II and El Furrial and transitioned the operations of PIGAP II and El Furrial, including the hiring of their employees, to PDVSA. In March 2011, PIGAP II and El Furrial, together with the Netherlands’ parent company of our joint venture partners, filed a request for the institution of an arbitration proceeding against Venezuela with ICSID related to the seized assets and investments, which was registered by ICSID in April 2011.

In March 2012, PIGAP II and El Furrial completed the sale of their assets to PDVSA Gas. We received an initial payment of $37.6 million in March 2012, and received installment payments totaling $4.8 million and $9.5 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. We are due to receive an additional approximately $65.3 million in quarterly cash installments through the first quarter of 2016. We have not recognized amounts payable to us by PDVSA Gas as a receivable and will therefore recognize quarterly payments received in the future as equity in (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates in our condensed consolidated statements of operations in the periods such payments are received. In connection with the sale of the PIGAP II and El Furrial assets, the WilPro joint ventures and our joint venture partners have agreed to suspend their previously filed arbitration proceeding against Venezuela pending payment in full by PDVSA Gas of the purchase price for the assets.

7. LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2012		December 31, 2011
Revolving credit facility due July 2016	$	232,000	$	433,500

Other, interest at various rates, collateralized by equipment and other assets	19		140
Long-term debt	$	1,705,638	$	1,773,039

In March 2012, the Partnership and EXLP Operating LLC, the Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiary, increased the borrowing capacity under their revolving credit facility by $200 million to $750 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Partnership incurred transaction costs of approximately $0.5 million related to the increase in borrowing capacity. These costs are included in Intangible and other assets, net and are being amortized over the facility term. Concurrently with this increase, we decreased the borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility by $200 million to $900 million. As a result of the decrease in borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility, we expensed $1.3 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with our revolving credit facility in the first quarter of 2012, which is reflected in Interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Table of Contents

In July 2011, we entered into a credit agreement providing for a new five-year, $1.1 billion senior secured revolving credit facility (the “2011 Credit Facility”), which matures in July 2016 and replaced our former senior secured credit facility. We incurred approximately $7.8 million in transaction costs related to the 2011 Credit Facility. These costs are included in Intangible and other assets, net and are being amortized over the facility term. As a result of the termination of our former senior secured credit facility, we expensed approximately $1.6 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with our former senior secured credit facility in the third quarter of 2011, which is reflected in Interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In March 2011, we repaid the $6.0 million outstanding balance under our asset-backed securitization facility and terminated that facility. As a result of the termination, we expensed $1.4 million of unamortized deferred financing costs, which is reflected in Interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

As of September 30, 2012, we had $232.0 million in outstanding borrowings and $198.7 million in outstanding letters of credit under the 2011 Credit Facility. At September 30, 2012, taking into account guarantees through letters of credit, we had undrawn and available capacity of $469.3 million under the 2011 Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2012, the Partnership had $235.5 million of undrawn and available capacity under its revolving credit facility.

8. ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVES

We are exposed to market risks primarily associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We use derivative financial instruments to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with financial activities by managing our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on a portion of our debt obligations. We also use derivative financial instruments to minimize the risks caused by currency fluctuations in certain foreign currencies. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

During the third quarter of 2012, interest rate swaps with a notional value of $465.0 million expired. As a result, at September 30, 2012, we were a party to interest rate swaps pursuant to which we make fixed payments and receive floating payments on a notional value of $250.0 million. We entered into these swaps to offset changes in expected cash flows due to fluctuations in the associated variable interest rates. Our interest rate swaps expire in November 2015. As of September 30, 2012, the weighted average effective fixed interest rate on our interest rate swaps was 1.8%. We have designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedging instruments so that any change in their fair values is recognized as a component of comprehensive income (loss) and is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to the extent the hedge is effective. The swap terms substantially coincide with the hedged item and are expected to offset changes in expected cash flows due to fluctuations in the variable rate, and therefore we currently do not expect a significant amount of ineffectiveness on these hedges. We perform quarterly calculations to determine whether the swap agreements are still effective and to calculate any ineffectiveness. We recorded no ineffectiveness in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. We estimate that $3.1 million of deferred pre-tax losses attributable to existing interest rate swaps and included in our accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2012, will be reclassified into earnings as interest expense at then-current values during the next twelve months as the underlying hedged transactions occur. Cash flows from derivatives designated as hedges are classified in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows under the same category as the cash flows from the underlying assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions.

In the fourth quarter of 2010, we paid $43.0 million to terminate interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $585.0 million and a weighted average effective fixed interest rate of 4.6%. These swaps qualified for hedge accounting and were previously included on our balance sheet as a liability and in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The liability was paid in connection with the termination, and the associated amount in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is being amortized into interest expense over the original terms of the swaps. We estimate that $1.9 million of deferred pre-tax losses from these terminated interest rate swaps will be amortized into interest expense during the next twelve months.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We operate in approximately 30 countries throughout the world, and a fluctuation in the value of the currencies of these countries relative to the U.S. dollar could impact our profits from international operations and the value of the net assets of our international operations when reported in U.S. dollars in our financial statements. From time to time, we may enter into foreign currency hedges to reduce our foreign exchange risk associated with cash flows we will receive in a currency other than the functional currency of the local Exterran affiliate that entered into the contract. The impact of foreign currency exchange on our condensed consolidated statements of operations will depend on the amount of our net asset and liability positions exposed to currency fluctuations in future periods.

Table of Contents

Foreign currency swaps or forward contracts that meet the hedging requirements or that qualify for hedge accounting treatment are accounted for as cash flow hedges and changes in the fair value are recognized as a component of comprehensive income (loss) to the extent the hedge is effective. The amounts recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into earnings (loss) in the periods in which the underlying foreign currency exchange transaction is recognized and are included under the same category as the income or loss from the underlying assets, liabilities, or anticipated transactions in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. For foreign currency swaps and forward contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, changes in fair value and gains and losses on settlement are included under the same category as the income or loss from the underlying assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following tables present the effect of derivative instruments on our consolidated financial position and results of operations (in thousands). The impacts to other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated other comprehensive (income) loss on derivatives disclosed below are presented net of tax:

The counterparties to our derivative agreements are major international financial institutions. We monitor the credit quality of these financial institutions and do not expect non-performance by any counterparty, although such non-performance could have a material adverse effect on us. We have no specific collateral posted for our derivative instruments. The counterparties to our interest rate swaps are also lenders under our credit facilities and, in that capacity, share proportionally in the collateral pledged under the related facility.

9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The accounting standard for fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following three broad categories:

· Level 1 — Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets to which we have access at the date of measurement.

Table of Contents

· Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers.

· Level 3 — Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect our own assumptions regarding how market participants would price the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, with pricing levels as of the date of valuation (in thousands):

	September 30, 2012							December 31, 2011
	(Level 1)		(Level 2)			(Level 3)		(Level 1)		(Level 2)			(Level 3)
Interest rate swaps asset (liability)	$	—	$	(10,665	)	$	—	$	—	$	(19,446	)	$	—

On a quarterly basis, our interest rate swaps are recorded at fair value utilizing a combination of the market approach and income approach to estimate fair value based on forward LIBOR curves.

The following table presents our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, with pricing levels as of the date of valuation (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012						Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
	(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
Impaired long-lived assets	$	—	$	—	$	32,355	$	—	$	—	$	812
Impaired assets —Discontinued operations	—		—		1,959		—		—		—

Our estimate of the fair value of the impaired long-lived assets was based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, as well as our review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. Because we expect the disposition of the fleet assets we impaired during the second quarter of 2012 to take more than twelve months, we discounted the expected proceeds, net of selling and other carrying costs, using a weighted average disposal period of four years and a discount rate of 10.4%. Our estimate of the fair value of the impaired assets that are classified as discontinued operations was based on our expected proceeds, net of selling costs.

10. GOODWILL

Goodwill acquired in connection with business combinations represents the excess of consideration over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired. Certain assumptions and estimates are employed in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as in determining the allocation of goodwill to the appropriate reporting units.

We performed our goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of each year, or whenever events indicated impairment may have occurred, to determine if the estimated recoverable value of each of our reporting units exceeded the net carrying value of the reporting unit, including the applicable goodwill.

The first step in performing a goodwill impairment test is to compare the estimated fair value of each reporting unit with its recorded net book value (including the goodwill). If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is higher than the recorded net book value, no impairment is deemed to exist and no further testing is required. If, however, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is below the recorded net book value, then a second step must be performed to determine the goodwill impairment required, if any. In this second step, the estimated fair value from the first step is used as the purchase price in a hypothetical acquisition of the reporting unit. Purchase business combination accounting rules are followed to determine a hypothetical purchase price allocation to the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities. The residual amount of goodwill resulting from this hypothetical purchase price allocation is compared to the recorded amount of goodwill for the reporting unit, and the recorded amount is written down to the hypothetical amount, if lower.

Because quoted market prices for our reporting units are not available, management must apply judgment in determining the estimated fair value of these reporting units for purposes of performing the annual goodwill impairment test. Management used all available information to make these fair value determinations, including the present values of expected future cash flows using discount rates commensurate with the risks involved in the assets.

Table of Contents

As a result of the level of decline in our stock price and corresponding market capitalization in the third quarter of 2011, we performed a goodwill impairment test of our aftermarket services and fabrication reporting units’ goodwill as of September 30, 2011. We determined the fair value of these reporting units using the expected present value of future cash flows. This decline in our market capitalization led us to increase the estimate of the market’s implied weighted average cost of capital and reduce the present value of the forecasted cash flows. The test indicated that our aftermarket services and fabrication reporting units’ goodwill was impaired and therefore we recorded a full impairment of the goodwill associated with these reporting units in the third quarter of 2011 of $196.1 million.

The table below presents the change in the net carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 (in thousands):

	Aftermarket services			Fabrication			Total
Balance as of December 31, 2010:
Goodwill	$	63,095		$	221,154		$	284,249

11. LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENT

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we evaluated the future deployment of our idle fleet and, as a result, determined to retire and either sell or re-utilize key components on approximately 920 idle compressor units, or approximately 316,000 horsepower, that we previously used to provide services in our North America contract operations segment. As a result of our decision to sell or re-utilize key components on these compressor units, we performed an impairment review and, based on that review, recorded a $96.5 million asset impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value. The fair value of each unit was estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, as well as our review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use.

In the fourth quarter of 2010, we recorded an impairment of compressor units used in our contract operations segments that we retired from our active fleet and made available for sale. In connection with our review of our fleet in June 2012, we re-evaluated the key assumptions used in the fleet impairment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2010. Based upon that review, we reduced the expected proceeds from disposition for most of the remaining units and increased the weighted average disposal period for the units from the impairment in the fourth quarter of 2010. This resulted in an additional impairment of $34.8 million to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we evaluated other long-lived assets for impairment and recorded long-lived asset impairments of $3.2 million and $4.7 million, respectively, on these assets.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we reviewed the idle compression assets used in our contract operations segments for units that were not of the type, configuration, make or model that are cost effective to maintain and operate. Our estimate of the fair value of the impaired long-lived assets was based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, as well as our review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. The net book value of these assets exceeded the fair value by $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and was recorded as a long-lived asset impairment.

12. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we incurred $5.8 million of restructuring charges primarily related to termination benefits and consulting services. These charges are reflected as Restructuring charges in our condensed consolidated statements of

Table of Contents

operations. We currently estimate that we will incur additional charges with respect to the profit improvement initiative of approximately $0.5 million. We expect all of the estimated additional charges will result in cash expenditures.

The following table summarizes the changes to our accrued liability balance related to restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (in thousands):

	Restructuring Charges Accrual
Beginning balance at December 31, 2011	$	1,776
Additions for costs expensed	5,828
Less non-cash expenses	(83		)
Reductions for payments	(7,118		)
Ending balance at September 30, 2012	$	403

Restructuring charges by segment are as follows (in thousands):

13. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Incentive Plan

In August 2007, we adopted the Exterran Holdings, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended and restated, the “2007 Plan”) that provides for the granting of stock-based awards in the form of options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and performance awards to our employees and directors. In May 2011, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan increasing the aggregate number of shares of common stock available under the 2007 Plan to 12,500,000. Each option and stock appreciation right granted counts as one share against the aggregate share limit, and each share of restricted stock and restricted stock unit granted counts as two shares against the aggregate share limit. Awards granted under the 2007 Plan that are subsequently cancelled, terminated or forfeited are available for future grant, and cash settled awards are not counted against the aggregate share limit.

Stock Options

Under the 2007 Plan, stock options are granted at fair market value at the date of grant, are exercisable in accordance with the vesting schedule established by the compensation committee of our board of directors in its sole discretion and expire no later than seven years after the date of grant. Options generally vest 33 1/3% on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date.

The weighted average fair value at date of grant for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $5.74, and was estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012
Expected life in years	4.5
Risk-free interest rate	0.78	%
Volatility	47.96	%
Dividend yield	0.0	%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant for a period commensurate with the estimated expected life of the stock options. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock over the period commensurate with the expected life of the stock options and other factors. We have not historically paid a dividend and do not expect to pay a dividend during the expected life of the stock options.

Table of Contents

The following table presents stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (in thousands, except per share data and remaining life in years):

	Stock Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Life	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Options outstanding, December 31, 2011	3,271		$	27.39
Granted	153		14.36
Exercised	(7	)	16.14
Cancelled	(788	)	27.96
Options outstanding, September 30, 2012	2,629		26.49		4.8	$	8,870
Options exercisable, September 30, 2012	1,688		34.11		3.2	2,435

Intrinsic value is the difference between the market value of our stock and the exercise price of each option multiplied by the number of options outstanding for those options where the market value exceeds their exercise price. As of September 30, 2012, $3.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Cash Settled Restricted Stock Units and Cash Settled Performance Awards

For grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units, we recognize compensation expense over the vesting period equal to the fair value of our common stock at the date of grant. For grants of cash settled restricted stock units, we re-measure the fair value of these cash settled restricted stock units and record a cumulative adjustment of the expense previously recognized. Our obligation related to the cash settled restricted stock units is reflected as a liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units, cash settled restricted stock units and cash settled performance awards generally vest 33 1/3% on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date.

The following table presents restricted stock, restricted stock unit, cash settled restricted stock unit and cash settled performance award activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 (in thousands, except per share data):

	Shares		Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share
Non-vested awards, December 31, 2011	1,670		$	19.49
Granted	1,219		14.32
Vested	(654	)	20.53
Cancelled	(145	)	23.19
Non-vested awards, September 30, 2012	2,090		15.89

As of September 30, 2012, $25.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units and cash settled restricted stock units is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In August 2007, we adopted the Exterran Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which is intended to provide employees with an opportunity to participate in our long-term performance and success through the purchase of shares of common stock at a price that may be less than fair market value. The ESPP is designed to comply with Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each quarter, an eligible employee may elect to withhold a portion of his or her salary up to the lesser of $25,000 per year or 10% of his or her eligible pay to purchase shares of our common stock at a price equal to 85% to 100% of the fair market value of the stock as of the first trading day of the quarter, the last trading day of the quarter or the lower of the first trading day of the quarter and the last trading day of the quarter, as the compensation committee of our board of directors may determine. The ESPP will terminate on the date that all shares of common stock authorized for sale under the ESPP have been purchased, unless it is extended. In May 2011, our stockholders approved an amendment to the ESPP that increased the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for purchase under the ESPP to 1,000,000. At September 30, 2012, 353,897 shares remained available for purchase under the ESPP. Our ESPP is compensatory and, as a result, we record an expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations related to the ESPP. Since July 2009, the purchase discount under the ESPP has been 5% of the fair market value of our common stock on the first trading day of the quarter or the last trading day of the quarter, whichever is lower.

Partnership Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Partnership has a long-term incentive plan (the “Plan”) that was adopted by Exterran GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership’s general partner, in October 2006 for employees, directors and consultants of the Partnership, us and our respective affiliates. An aggregate of 1,035,378 common units, common unit options, restricted units and phantom units is available under the Plan. The Plan is administered by the board of directors of Exterran GP LLC or a committee thereof (the “Plan Administrator”).

Phantom units are notional units that entitle the grantee to receive a common unit upon the vesting of the phantom unit or, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, cash equal to the fair market value of a common unit.

Partnership Phantom Units

The following table presents phantom unit activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2012:

	Phantom Units		Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value per Unit
Phantom units outstanding, December 31, 2011	75,267		$	21.45
Granted	22,340		23.38
Vested	(31,701	)	17.97
Cancelled	(771	)	28.50
Phantom units outstanding, September 30, 2012	65,135		23.72

As of September 30, 2012, $1.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested phantom units is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We have issued the following guarantees that are not recorded on our accompanying balance sheet (dollars in thousands):

	Term	Maximum Potential Undiscounted Payments as of September 30, 2012
Performance guarantees through letters of credit(1)	2012-2016	$	252,474
Standby letters of credit	2012-2013	14,248
Commercial letters of credit	2012-2013	608
Bid bonds and performance bonds(1)	2012-2018	92,007
Maximum potential undiscounted payments		$	359,337

(1) We have issued guarantees to third parties to ensure performance of our obligations, some of which may be fulfilled by third parties.

Table of Contents

As part of an acquisition in 2001, we may be required to make contingent payments of up to $46 million to the seller, depending on our realization of certain U.S. federal tax benefits through the year 2015. To date, we have not realized any such benefits that would require a payment and we do not anticipate realizing any such benefits that would require a payment before the year 2016.

See Note 2 and Note 6 for a discussion of our gain contingencies related to assets that were expropriated in Venezuela.

The Texas Legislature enacted changes related to the appraisal of natural gas compressors for ad valorem taxes by expanding the definitions of “Heavy Equipment Dealer” and “Heavy Equipment.” Under the revised statute, we believe we are a Heavy Equipment Dealer and that our natural gas compressors are Heavy Equipment and are, therefore, required to file the 2012 property tax renditions under this new methodology. As a result of filing as a Heavy Equipment Dealer in Texas counties, a number of Appraisal Review Boards have denied our position and we are currently filing petitions for review in district courts.

Our ad valorem tax expense (which is reflected on our condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of Cost of goods sold (excluding depreciation and amortization expense)) includes a benefit of $1.7 million and $5.1 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as a result of the new methodology. The total benefit for 2012 is expected to be $6.8 million, of which approximately $1.3 million has been agreed to by a number of Appraisal Review Boards.

In addition to federal and state income taxes, we are subject to a number of state and local taxes that are not income-based. Many of these taxes are subject to audit by the taxing authorities, and therefore, it is possible that an audit could result in our making additional tax payments. We accrue for such additional tax payments resulting from an audit when we determine that it is probable that we have incurred a liability and we can reasonably estimate the amount of the liability. We do not believe that such payments would be material to our consolidated financial position but cannot provide assurance that the resolution of an audit would not be material to our results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the resolution occurs.

Our business can be hazardous, involving unforeseen circumstances such as uncontrollable flows of natural gas or well fluids and fires or explosions. As is customary in our industry, we review our safety equipment and procedures and carry insurance against some, but not all, risks of our business. Our insurance coverage includes property damage, general liability and commercial automobile liability and other coverage we believe is appropriate. In addition, we have a minimal amount of insurance on our offshore assets. We believe that our insurance coverage is customary for the industry and adequate for our business; however, losses and liabilities not covered by insurance would increase our costs.

Additionally, we are substantially self-insured for workers’ compensation and employee group health claims in view of the relatively high per-incident deductibles we absorb under our insurance arrangements for these risks. Losses up to the deductible amounts are estimated and accrued based upon known facts, historical trends and industry averages.

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, we believe that any ultimate liability arising from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation, however, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the resolution occurs.

15. RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This update changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. This update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Our adoption of this new guidance on January 1, 2012 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued an update on the presentation of other comprehensive income. Under this update, entities will be required to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity has been eliminated. This update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Our adoption of this new guidance on January 1, 2012 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an update allowing entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. Under this update, entities are permitted to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. This update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Our adoption of this new guidance on January 1, 2012 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

16. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

We manage our business segments primarily based upon the type of product or service provided. We have four reportable segments: North America contract operations, international contract operations, aftermarket services and fabrication. The North America and international contract operations segments primarily provide natural gas compression services, production and processing equipment services and maintenance services to meet specific customer requirements on Exterran-owned assets. The aftermarket services segment provides a full range of services to support the surface production, compression and processing needs of customers, from parts sales and normal maintenance services to full operation of a customer’s owned assets. The fabrication segment provides (i) design, engineering, fabrication, installation and sale of natural gas compression units and accessories and equipment used in the production, treating and processing of crude oil and natural gas and (ii) engineering, procurement and fabrication services primarily related to the manufacturing of critical process equipment for refinery and petrochemical facilities, the fabrication of tank farms and the fabrication of evaporators and brine heaters for desalination plants.

Table of Contents

We evaluate the performance of our segments based on gross margin for each segment. Revenues include only sales to external customers. We do not include intersegment sales when we evaluate the performance of our segments.

17. TRANSACTIONS RELATED TO THE PARTNERSHIP

In March 2012, we sold to the Partnership contract operations customer service agreements with 39 customers and a fleet of 406 compressor units used to provide compression services under those agreements, comprising approximately 188,000 horsepower, or 5% (by then available horsepower) of our and the Partnership’s combined U.S. contract operations business. In addition, the assets sold included 139 compressor units, comprising approximately 75,000 horsepower, that we previously leased to the Partnership, and a natural gas processing plant with a capacity of 10 million cubic feet per day used to provide processing services to a customer pursuant to a long-term services agreement. Total consideration for the transaction was approximately $182.8 million, excluding transaction costs, and included the Partnership’s payment of $77.4 million in cash and assumption of $105.4 million of our debt. In connection with this transaction, we entered into an amendment to our omnibus agreement with the Partnership that, among other things, increased the cap on selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs we allocate to the Partnership based on costs we incur on the Partnership’s behalf and extended the term of the caps on the Partnership’s obligation to reimburse us for SG&A costs and operating costs we allocate to the Partnership based on such costs we incur on the Partnership’s behalf for an additional year such that the caps will now terminate on December 31, 2013.

In March 2012, the Partnership sold, pursuant to a public underwritten offering, 4,965,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership, including 465,000 common units sold pursuant to an over-allotment option. The Partnership used the $114.5 million of net proceeds from this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility. In connection with this sale and as permitted under the Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Partnership issued and sold to Exterran General Partner, L.P. (“GP”), our wholly-owned subsidiary and the Partnership’s general partner, approximately 101,000 general partner units in consideration of the continuation of GP’s approximate 2.0% general partner interest in the Partnership. The change in our ownership interest of the Partnership resulting from the sale of the common units resulted in adjustments to noncontrolling interest, accumulated other comprehensive income, deferred income taxes and additional paid-in capital to reflect our new ownership percentage in the Partnership.

In June 2011, we sold to the Partnership contract operations customer service agreements with 34 customers and a fleet of 407 compressor units used to provide compression services under those agreements, comprising approximately 289,000 horsepower, or 8% (by then available horsepower) of our and the Partnership’s combined U.S. contract operations business (the “June 2011 Contract Operations Acquisition”). In addition, the assets sold included 207 compressor units, comprising approximately 98,000 horsepower, that we previously leased to the Partnership, and a natural gas processing plant with a capacity of 8 million cubic feet per day used to provide processing services pursuant to a long-term services agreement. Total consideration for the transaction was approximately $223.0 million, excluding transaction costs. In connection with this acquisition, the Partnership assumed $159.4 million of our debt, paid us $62.2 million in cash and issued approximately 51,000 general partner units to GP.

In May 2011, the Partnership sold, pursuant to a public underwritten offering, 5,134,175 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership, including 134,175 common units sold pursuant to an over-allotment option. The Partnership used the $127.7 million of net proceeds from this offering (i) to repay approximately $64.8 million of borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility and (ii) for general partnership purposes, including to fund a portion of the consideration for the June 2011 Contract Operations Acquisition. In connection with this sale and as permitted under the Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Partnership issued and sold to GP approximately 53,000 general partner units in consideration of the continuation of GP’s approximate 2.0% general partner interest in the Partnership.

In March 2011, we sold, pursuant to a public underwritten offering, 5,914,466 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership, including 664,466 common units sold pursuant to an over-allotment option. We used the $162.2 million of net proceeds received from the sale of the common units to repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility and term loan. The change in our ownership interest of the Partnership resulting from the sale of the common units resulted in adjustments to noncontrolling interest, accumulated other comprehensive income, deferred income taxes and additional paid-in capital to reflect our new ownership percentage in the Partnership.

The table below presents the effects of changes from net loss attributable to Exterran stockholders and changes in our equity interest of the Partnership on our equity attributable to Exterran’s stockholders (in thousands):

Exterran Energy Corp., our 100% owned subsidiary, was the original issuer of the 4.75% Notes, which Exterran Holdings, Inc. (“Parent”) had agreed to fully and unconditionally guarantee. In the second quarter of 2012, in connection with an organizational restructuring of certain of our subsidiaries, Exterran Energy Corp. distributed and assigned substantially all its assets and liabilities, including its obligations under the 4.75% Notes, to Parent. As a result, Parent became the direct obligor under the 4.75% Notes; therefore, subsidiary issuer financial information is no longer provided in this footnote.

Parent is the issuer of the 7.25% Notes. Exterran Energy Solutions, L.P., EES Leasing LLC, EXH GP LP LLC and EXH MLP LP LLC (each a 100% owned subsidiary; together, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”), have agreed to fully and unconditionally guarantee Parent’s obligations relating to the 7.25% Notes. As a result of these guarantees, we are presenting the following condensed consolidating financial information pursuant to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X. These schedules are presented using the equity method of accounting for all periods presented. Under this method, investments in subsidiaries are recorded at cost and adjusted for our share in the subsidiaries’ cumulative results of operations, capital contributions and distributions and other changes in equity. Elimination entries relate primarily to the elimination of investments in subsidiaries and associated intercompany balances and transactions. The Other Subsidiaries column includes financial information for those subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 7.25% Notes.

GENERAL

Exterran Holdings, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“we” or “Exterran”), is a global market leader in the full service natural gas compression business and a premier provider of operations, maintenance, service and equipment for oil and natural gas production, processing and transportation applications. Our global customer base consists of companies engaged in all aspects of the oil and natural gas industry, including large integrated oil and natural gas companies, national oil and natural gas companies, independent producers and natural gas processors, gatherers and pipelines. We operate in three primary business lines: contract operations, fabrication and aftermarket services. In our contract operations business line, we own a fleet of natural gas compression equipment and crude oil and natural gas production and processing equipment that we utilize to provide operations services to our customers. In our fabrication business line, we fabricate and sell equipment similar to the equipment that we own and utilize to provide contract operations to our customers. We also fabricate the equipment utilized in our contract operations services. In addition, our fabrication business line provides engineering, procurement and fabrication services primarily related to the manufacturing of critical process equipment for refinery and petrochemical facilities, the fabrication of tank farms and the fabrication of evaporators and brine heaters for desalination plants. In our Total Solutions projects, which we offer to our customers on either a contract operations basis or a sale basis, we provide the engineering, design, project management, procurement and construction services necessary to incorporate our products into production, processing and compression facilities. In our aftermarket services business line, we sell parts and components and provide operations, maintenance, overhaul and reconfiguration services to customers who own compression, production, processing, treating and other equipment.

Exterran Partners, L.P.

We have an equity interest in the Partnership, a master limited partnership that provides natural gas contract operations services to customers throughout the U.S. As of September 30, 2012, public unitholders held a 69% ownership interest in the Partnership and we owned the remaining equity interest, including the general partner interest and all incentive distribution rights. The general partner of the Partnership is our subsidiary and we consolidate the financial position and results of operations of the Partnership. It is our intention for the Partnership to be the primary vehicle for the growth of our U.S. contract operations business and for us to continue to contribute U.S. contract operations customer contracts and equipment to the Partnership over time in exchange for cash, the Partnership’s assumption of our debt and/or additional interests in the Partnership. As of September 30, 2012, the Partnership had a fleet of 4,676 compressor units comprising approximately 2,022,000 horsepower, or 61% (by then available horsepower) of our and the Partnership’s combined total U.S. horsepower. This fleet included 316 compressor units with an aggregate horsepower of

Table of Contents

approximately 161,000 leased from us and excluded 22 compressor units owned by the Partnership with an aggregate horsepower of approximately 9,000 leased to us as of September 30, 2012.

In March 2012, we sold to the Partnership contract operations customer service agreements with 39 customers and a fleet of 406 compressor units used to provide compression services under those agreements, comprising approximately 188,000 horsepower, or 5% (by then available horsepower) of our combined U.S. contract operations business. In addition, the assets sold included 139 compressor units, comprising approximately 75,000 horsepower, that we previously leased to the Partnership, and a natural gas processing plant with a capacity of 10 million cubic feet per day used to provide processing services to a customer pursuant to a long-term services agreement. Total consideration for the transaction was approximately $182.8 million, excluding transaction costs, and included the Partnership’s payment of $77.4 million in cash and assumption of $105.4 million of our debt. Also in connection with this transaction, we entered into an amendment to our omnibus agreement with the Partnership that, among other things, increased the cap on selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs we allocate to the Partnership based on such costs we incur on the Partnership’s behalf and extended the term of the caps on the Partnership’s obligation to reimburse us for SG&A costs and operating costs we allocate to the Partnership based on such costs we incur on the Partnership’s behalf for an additional year such that the caps will now terminate on December 31, 2013.

OVERVIEW

Industry Conditions and Trends

Our business environment and corresponding operating results are affected by the level of energy industry spending for the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas reserves. Spending by oil and natural gas exploration and production companies is dependent upon these companies’ forecasts regarding the expected future supply, demand and pricing of oil and natural gas products as well as their estimates of risk-adjusted costs to find, develop and produce reserves. Although we believe our contract operations business is typically less impacted by commodity prices than certain other energy service products and services, changes in oil and natural gas exploration and production spending will normally result in changes in demand for our products and services.

Natural Gas Consumption and Production. Natural gas consumption in the U.S. for the twelve months ended July 31, 2012 increased by approximately 2% over the twelve months ended July 31, 2011. The Energy Information Administration (“EIA”) estimates that natural gas consumption in the U.S. will decrease by 0.2% in 2013 and will increase by an average of 0.5% per year thereafter until 2035. Natural gas consumption worldwide is projected to increase by 1.6% per year until 2035, according to the EIA.

Natural gas marketed production in the U.S. for the twelve months ended July 31, 2012 increased by approximately 7% over the twelve months ended July 31, 2011. The EIA forecasts that total U.S. marketed production growth will be 2.6 Bcf per day in 2012 and 0.4 Bcf per day in 2013. In 2010, the U.S. accounted for an estimated annual production of approximately 22 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, or 19% of the worldwide total of approximately 119 trillion cubic feet. The EIA estimates that the U.S.’s natural gas production level will be approximately 26 trillion cubic feet in 2035, or 16% of the projected worldwide total of approximately 169 trillion cubic feet.

Our Performance Trends and Outlook

Our revenue, earnings and financial position are affected by, among other things, market conditions that impact demand and pricing for natural gas compression and oil and natural gas production and processing, our customers’ decisions regarding whether to utilize our products and services rather than utilize products and services from our competitors and their decisions regarding whether to own and operate the equipment themselves. In particular, many of our North America contract operations agreements with customers have short initial terms. We cannot be certain that these contracts will be renewed after the end of the initial contractual term, and any such nonrenewal, or renewal at a reduced rate, could adversely impact our results of operations.

During 2011 and the first nine months of 2012, we saw robust drilling activity in North America, particularly in shale plays and areas focused on the production of oil and natural gas liquids. This activity led to higher demand and bookings for our fabricated compression, fabricated production and processing equipment, and contract operations businesses in these markets. The new development activity has increased the overall amount of compression horsepower in the industry and in our business; however, these increases continue to be partially offset by horsepower declines in more mature and predominantly dry gas markets. In early 2012, natural gas prices in North America fell to the lowest levels seen in more than a decade. Since then, natural gas prices have improved, but still remain at low levels which could limit natural gas production growth, particularly in dry gas areas. We believe that the low natural gas price environment, as well as the recent investment of capital in new equipment by our competitors and other third parties, could decrease demand for our natural gas compression and oil and natural gas production and processing equipment and services. However, given our current backlog levels for our fabricated products and the level of activity we are generating in North America, we believe our fabrication revenues will grow during the next twelve months over the levels we generated in the prior twelve months.

Table of Contents

In international markets, we believe there will continue to be demand for our contract operations and fabricated projects and we expect to have opportunities to grow our international business through our contract operations, aftermarket services and fabrication business segments over the long term. In 2011, we saw decreases in our international backlog in our fabrication business segment due to the longer lead times for the development of international energy projects. However, our international backlog has improved since year-end 2011, increasing by over 40% through September 30, 2012.

Our level of capital spending depends on our forecast for the demand for our products and services and the equipment we require to provide services to our customers. As we believe there will be a high level of activity in certain North American areas focused on the production of oil and natural gas liquids, we anticipate investing more capital in our contract operations fleet in 2012 and into 2013 than we did in recent periods prior to 2012.

Based on current market conditions, we expect that net cash provided by operating activities and availability under our credit facilities will be sufficient to finance our operating expenditures, capital expenditures and scheduled interest and debt repayments through December 31, 2012; however, to the extent it is not, we may seek additional debt or equity financing.

We intend to continue to contribute over time additional U.S. contract operations customer contracts and equipment to the Partnership in exchange for cash, the Partnership’s assumption of our debt and/or our receipt of additional interests in the Partnership. Such transactions would depend on, among other things, market and economic conditions, our ability to reach agreement with the Partnership regarding the terms of any purchase and the availability to the Partnership of debt and equity capital on reasonable terms.

FINANCIAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary of Results

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $718.7 million compared to $689.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,964.7 million compared to $1,940.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The change in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the corresponding 2011 periods was primarily caused by higher fabrication and aftermarket services revenues in North America, partially offset by lower fabrication revenue in the Eastern Hemisphere.

Net income (loss) attributable to Exterran stockholders and EBITDA, as adjusted. We recorded net income attributable to Exterran stockholders of $113.4 million and a net loss of $216.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We recorded a net loss attributable to Exterran stockholders of $33.7 million and $274.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We recorded EBITDA, as adjusted, of $126.4 million and $98.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We recorded EBITDA, as adjusted, of $324.0 million and $277.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net income (loss) attributable to Exterran stockholders benefited from $126.7 million of net proceeds from the sale of previously nationalized Venezuelan assets to PDVSA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, and equity in income from non-consolidated affiliates of $4.8 million and $47.1 million received in conjunction with the sale of PIGAP II and El Furrial’s assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. This was offset by long-lived asset impairments of $3.2 million and $135.9 million incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Net loss attributable to Exterran stockholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was impacted by the recognition of a $196.1 million goodwill impairment. Net income (loss) attributable to Exterran stockholders and EBITDA, as adjusted, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 also benefitted from higher gross margins from operations. For a reconciliation of EBITDA, as adjusted, to net income (loss), its most directly comparable financial measure, calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), please read “— Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Gross margin	$	76,315		$	71,858		6	%
Gross margin percentage	50		%	49		%	1	%

The increase in revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily attributable to a 2% increase in average operating horsepower, a $1.4 million increase in freight revenue, a $1.3 million increase in revenue from a gas processing plant that began operations during the fourth quarter of 2011 and an increase in rates. These increases were partially offset by a $2.6 million decrease in revenue from our contract water treatment business in the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increases in gross margin (defined as revenue less cost of sales, excluding depreciation and amortization expense) and gross margin percentage in the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 were primarily caused by the revenue increase explained above, better management of field operating expenses from the implementation of profitability improvement initiatives, a $1.1 million decrease in costs to deploy idle fleet assets on customer contracts and a $1.8 million benefit from ad valorem taxes due to a change in tax law, partially offset by an increase in lube oil prices. Gross margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, is reconciled, in total, to net income (loss), its most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, in Note 16 to the Financial Statements.

The decreases in revenue and gross margin in the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 were primarily due to a $7.3 million decrease in revenue in Brazil primarily as a result of contracts that were terminated in 2011 and a $2.2 million decrease in revenue in Nigeria primarily due to the early termination of a project in the first quarter of 2012. These decreases were partially offset by a $3.3 million increase in revenue from a new contract in the Eastern Hemisphere and a $2.7 million increase in revenue in Mexico due to new contracts that commenced in 2012.

Revenue and gross margin in the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 included an increase in revenue in North America of $10.8 million for the current year period. This increase was substantially offset by a decrease in revenue in the Eastern Hemisphere of $6.5 million and a decrease in revenue in Latin America of $4.1 million for the current year period. Eastern Hemisphere revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2011 included revenue of $3.9 million that resulted from the renegotiation of rates on an operations and maintenance contract in Gabon that was retroactive back to April 2010.

Fabrication

(dollars in thousands)

	Three months ended September 30,						Increase
	2012			2011			(Decrease)
Revenue	$	360,686		$	332,651		8	%

Gross margin	$	49,932		$	29,392		70	%
Gross margin percentage	14		%	9		%	5	%

The increase in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to $67.0 million of higher revenue in North America caused by improved market conditions, partially offset by a $46.6 million reduction of revenue in the Eastern Hemisphere. The increases in gross margin and gross margin percentage were primarily caused by a customer price increase in North America as a result of improved market conditions and a reduction in operating expenses from the implementation of profitability improvement initiatives. This was partially offset by the continuation of weaker market conditions in the Eastern Hemisphere in the three months ended September 30, 2012 including the impact of reduced margins from our Belleli Energy subsidiary which provides engineering, procurement and fabrication services primarily related to the manufacturing of critical process equipment for refinery and petrochemical facilities, the fabrication of tank farms and the fabrication of evaporators and brine heaters for desalination plants.

The decrease in SG&A expense during the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to a $2.1 million decrease in professional expenses primarily due to lower consulting costs, a decrease in bad debt expense and decreases in other SG&A expenses primarily driven by cost reduction efforts. These decreases were partially offset by a $3.0 million increase in compensation and benefits expense. SG&A as a percentage of revenue was 12% and 13% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization decreased primarily due to reduced depreciation and amortization on contract operations projects in Brazil as a result of contracts that were terminated in 2011 and the impact of the $128.5 million impairment recorded in the second quarter of 2012, which decreased depreciation and amortization expense by $2.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2012.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we evaluated other long-lived assets for impairment and recorded a long-lived asset impairment of $3.2 million on these assets.

During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we reviewed the idle compression assets used in our contract operations segments for units that were not of the type, configuration, make or model that are cost effective to maintain and operate. Our estimate of the fair value of the impaired long-lived assets was based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, as well as our review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. The net book value of these assets exceeded the fair value by $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and was recorded as a long-lived asset impairment.

In November 2011, we announced a workforce cost reduction program across all of our business segments as a first step in a broader overall profit improvement initiative. These actions were the result of a review of our cost structure aimed at identifying ways to reduce our on-going operating costs and to adjust the size of our workforce to be consistent with current and expected activity levels. A significant portion of the workforce cost reduction program was completed in 2011, with the remainder expected to be completed in 2012. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred $1.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of restructuring charges primarily related to termination benefits and consulting services. See Note 12 to the Financial Statements for further discussion of these charges.

As a result of the level of decline in our stock price and corresponding market capitalization in the third quarter of 2011, we performed a goodwill impairment test of our aftermarket services and fabrication reporting units’ goodwill as of September 30, 2011. This decline in our market capitalization led us to increase the estimate of the market’s implied weighted average cost of capital and reduce the present value of the forecasted cash flows. The test indicated that our aftermarket services and fabrication reporting units’ goodwill was impaired and therefore we recorded a full impairment of the goodwill associated with these reporting units in the third quarter of 2011 of $196.1 million. See Note 10 to the Financial Statements for further discussion of the goodwill impairments.

The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to a decrease of $3.0 million in the amortization of payments to terminate interest rate swaps and a decrease as a result of the expiration of certain interest rate swaps in the third quarter of 2012. The payments to terminate interest rate swap agreements are being amortized into interest expense over the original terms of the swaps.

The increase in equity in (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates during the three months ended September 30, 2012 relates to a $4.8 million cash payment received in September 2012 from the sale of PIGAP II and El Furrial’s assets. We are due to receive an additional approximately $65.3 million in quarterly cash installments through the first quarter of 2016 related to this sale. Payments

Table of Contents

we receive from the sale will be recognized as equity in (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates in our condensed consolidated statements of operations in the periods such payments are received.

The change in other (income) expense, net was primarily due to a foreign currency gain of $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to a foreign currency loss of $13.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Our foreign currency gains and losses are primarily related to the remeasurement of our international subsidiaries’ net assets exposed to changes in foreign currency rates. For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, foreign currency gain and loss included a translation gain of $2.3 million and a translation loss of $15.4 million, respectively, related to the re-measurement of our Brazil subsidiary’s U.S. dollar denominated inter-company debt.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was impacted by $4.8 million of equity in (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates, which was not subject to income tax. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was impacted by goodwill impairment expense of $196.1 million, of which only $41.9 million was deductible for income tax purposes.

Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax	$	110,916	$	(3,236	)	3,528	%

Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, related to our operations in Venezuela that were expropriated in June 2009, including the costs associated with our arbitration proceeding, and results from and impairment of our Canadian contract operations and aftermarket services businesses. As discussed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements, in June 2009, PDVSA commenced taking possession of our assets and operations in a number of our locations in Venezuela and by the end of the second quarter of 2009, PDVSA had assumed control over substantially all of our assets and operations in Venezuela.

In June 2012, we committed to a plan to sell our contract operations and aftermarket services businesses in Canada. The planned disposition meets the criteria established for recognition as discontinued operations and therefore our Canadian contract operations and aftermarket services businesses are reflected as discontinued operations in our Financial Statements. In conjunction with the planned disposition, we recorded impairments of long-lived assets and inventory that totaled $27.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011

Summary of Business Segment Results

North America Contract Operations

(dollars in thousands)

	Nine months ended September 30,						Increase
	2012			2011			(Decrease)
Revenue	$	450,684		$	441,171		2	%
Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization expense)	219,876			228,073			(4	)%
Gross margin	$	230,808		$	213,098		8	%
Gross margin percentage	51		%	48		%	3	%

The increase in revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily attributable to a 2% increase in average operating horsepower, a $3.8 million increase in revenue from a gas processing plant that began operations during the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase in rates and a $3.6 million increase in freight revenue. These increases were partially offset by a $6.3 million decrease in revenue from our contract water treatment business in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increases in gross margin (defined as revenue less cost of sales, excluding depreciation and amortization expense) and gross margin percentage in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were primarily caused by the revenue increase explained above, better management of field operating expenses from the implementation of profitability improvement initiatives and a $5.4 million benefit from ad valorem taxes due to a change in tax law, partially offset by an increase in lube oil prices and freight expenses.

International Contract Operations

Gross margin	$	198,805		$	191,425		4	%
Gross margin percentage	59		%	58		%	1	%

The increases in revenue and gross margin in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were primarily due to a $8.7 million increase in revenue in Mexico primarily due to new contracts which commenced during 2012, a $5.8 million increase in revenue from a new contract in the Eastern Hemisphere, a $4.7 million increase in revenue in Argentina that was primarily due to inflation rate adjustments and a $4.6 million increase in revenue in Nigeria, largely from the recognition of $5.1 million of revenue with little incremental cost from the early termination of a project in Nigeria recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. These increases were partially offset by an $18.8 million decrease in revenue in Brazil primarily as a result of contracts that were terminated in 2011. Gross margin percentage in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 benefited from the recognition of $5.1 million of revenue with little incremental cost from the early termination of a project in Nigeria and from inflationary rate adjustments in Argentina.

Gross margin percentage	22		%	14		%	8	%

The increase in revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to an increase in revenue in North America of $34.2 million. Gross margin and gross margin percentage were favorably

impacted by improved market conditions and the implementation of profitability improvement initiatives that began in the second half of 2011.

Gross margin	$	102,835		$	102,526		0	%
Gross margin percentage	12		%	11		%	1	%

The decrease in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to a $191.9 million reduction of revenue in the Eastern Hemisphere, partially offset by $165.7 million of higher revenue in North America caused by improved market conditions. The increases in gross margin and gross margin percentage were primarily caused by a customer price increase in North America as a result of improved market conditions and a reduction in operating expenses from the implementation of profitability improvement initiatives. This was partially offset by the continuation of weaker market conditions in the Eastern Hemisphere, including the impact of reduced margins from our Belleli Energy subsidiary and a $15.0 million recovery on a loss contract recorded in the first quarter of 2011. The decreases in gross margin and gross margin percentage at our Belleli Energy subsidiary were primarily the result of increased under-absorption caused by reduced activity.

The increase in SG&A expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to a $11.1 million increase in state and local taxes primarily related to sales tax audits in North America. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in other SG&A expenses primarily driven by cost reduction efforts. SG&A as a percentage of revenue was 14% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we evaluated the future deployment of our idle fleet and, as a result, determined to retire and either sell or re-utilize key components on approximately 920 idle compressor units, or approximately 316,000 horsepower, that we previously used to provide services in our North America contract operations segment. As a result of our decision to sell or re-utilize key components on these compressor units, we performed an impairment review and, based on that review, have recorded a $96.5 million asset impairment to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value. The fair value of each unit was estimated based on the expected net sale proceeds compared to other fleet units we recently sold, as well as our review of other units recently offered for sale by third parties, or the estimated component value of the equipment we plan to use. The average age of the impaired idle units was 24 years.

In the fourth quarter of 2010, we recorded an impairment of compressor units previously used in our contract operations segments that we retired from our active fleet and made available for sale. In connection with our review of our fleet in June 2012, we re-evaluated the key assumptions used in the fleet impairment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2010. Based upon that review, we reduced the

Table of Contents

expected proceeds from disposition for most of the remaining units and increased the weighted average disposal period for the units from the impairment in the fourth quarter of 2010. This resulted in an additional impairment of $34.8 million to reduce the book value of each unit to its estimated fair value. The average age of the units we further impaired in the second quarter of 2012 was 29 years.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we evaluated other long-lived assets for impairment and recorded long-lived asset impairments of $4.7 million on these assets.

In November 2011, we announced a workforce cost reduction program across all of our business segments as a first step in a broader overall profit improvement initiative. These actions were the result of a review of our cost structure aimed at identifying ways to reduce our on-going operating costs and to adjust the size of our workforce to be consistent with current and expected activity levels. A significant portion of the workforce cost reduction program was completed in 2011, with the remainder expected to be completed in 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred $5.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of restructuring charges primarily related to termination benefits and consulting services. See Note 12 to the Financial Statements for further discussion of these charges.

As a result of the level of decline in our stock price and corresponding market capitalization in the third quarter of 2011, we performed a goodwill impairment test of our aftermarket services and fabrication reporting units’ goodwill as of September 30, 2011. This decline in our market capitalization led us to increase the estimate of the market’s implied weighted average cost of capital and reduce the present value of the forecasted cash flows. The test indicated that our aftermarket services and fabrication reporting units’ goodwill was impaired and therefore we recorded a full impairment of the goodwill associated with these reporting units in the third quarter of 2011 of $196.1 million. See Note 10 to the Financial Statements for further discussion of the goodwill impairments.

The decrease in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to a decrease of $4.9 million in the amortization of payments to terminate interest rate swaps and a decrease as a result of the expiration of certain interest rate swaps in the third quarter of 2012. This was partially offset by refinancing a portion of our outstanding debt at a higher interest rate. The payments to terminate interest rate swap agreements are being amortized into interest expense over the original terms of the swaps.

The increase in equity in (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 relates to payments of $47.1 million received during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from the sale of PIGAP II and El Furrial’s assets. We are due to receive an additional approximately $65.3 million in quarterly cash installments through the first quarter of 2016 related to this sale. Payments we receive from the sale will be recognized as equity in (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates in our condensed consolidated statements of operations in the periods such payments are received.

The change in other (income) expense, net was primarily due to a foreign currency loss of $5.2 million and $14.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our foreign currency gains and losses are primarily related to the remeasurement of our international subsidiaries’ net assets exposed to changes in foreign currency rates. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, foreign currency loss was impacted by a $5.8 million decrease in translation loss related to re-measurement of our Brazil subsidiary’s U.S. dollar denominated inter-company debt. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, foreign currency loss was also impacted by a $2.4 million decrease in translation loss related to the re-measurement of our Netherlands subsidiary’s non-U.S. dollar denominated inter-company debt.

Table of Contents

The increase in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the $46.9 million equity in (income) loss of non-consolidated affiliates, which is not subject to income tax, and the $135.8 million asset impairment charge, which is predominantly tax effected at the U.S. statutory rate, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was partially offset by the goodwill impairment expense of $196.1 million recorded in the third quarter of 2011, of which $41.9 million was deductible for income tax purposes.

Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, related to our operations in Venezuela that were expropriated in June 2009, including the costs associated with our arbitration proceeding, and results from and impairment of our Canadian contract operations and aftermarket services businesses. As discussed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements, in June 2009, PDVSA commenced taking possession of our assets and operations in a number of our locations in Venezuela and by the end of the second quarter of 2009, PDVSA had assumed control over substantially all of our assets and operations in Venezuela.

In June 2012, we committed to a plan to sell our contract operations and aftermarket services businesses in Canada. The planned disposition meets the criteria established for recognition as discontinued operations and therefore our Canadian contract operations and aftermarket services businesses are reflected as discontinued operations in our Financial Statements. In conjunction with the planned disposition, we recorded impairments of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, and inventory, that totaled $68.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Noncontrolling Interest

As of September 30, 2012, noncontrolling interest is comprised of the portion of the Partnership’s earnings that is applicable to the limited partner interest in the Partnership owned by the public. As of September 30, 2012, public unitholders held a 69% ownership interest in the Partnership.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our unrestricted cash balance was $22.1 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $21.9 million at December 31, 2011. Working capital increased to $546.7 million at September 30, 2012 from $454.0 million at December 31, 2011. The increase in working capital was primarily caused by increases in accounts receivable and inventory, partially offset by increases in billings on uncompleted contracts in excess of costs and estimated earnings and deferred revenue. The increase in inventory and accounts receivable was primarily due to the increase in the volume of fabrication projects in process in North America at September 30, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011.

Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized in the table below (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012			2011
Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operations:
Operating activities	$	141,991		$	67,527
Investing activities	(254,032		)	(133,648		)
Financing activities	(10,898		)	52,102

Discontinued operations	123,433			1,335
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	168		$	(15,142	)

Operating Activities. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to improved results from operations including the increase in gross margin during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Investing Activities. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to an increase in capital expenditures from $171.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $328.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, partially offset by $47.1 million of proceeds we received in the first nine months of 2012 from the sale of PIGAP II and El Furrial’s assets.

Financing Activities. The increase in cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily attributable to a decrease in net proceeds from the sale of Partnership units from $289.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $114.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This was partially offset by a decrease in net repayments of long term debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Discontinued Operations. The increase in cash provided by discontinued operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily attributable to $126.7 million of net proceeds received from the sale of our Venezuelan subsidiary assets to PDVSA Gas.

Capital Expenditures. We generally invest funds necessary to fabricate fleet additions when our idle equipment cannot be reconfigured to economically fulfill a project’s requirements and the new equipment expenditure is expected to generate economic returns over its expected useful life that exceed our targeted return on capital. We currently plan to spend approximately $375 million to $400 million in net capital expenditures during 2012, including (1) contract operations equipment additions and (2) approximately $105 million to $115 million on equipment maintenance capital related to our contract operations business. Net capital expenditures are net of fleet sales.

Long-Term Debt. As of September 30, 2012, we had approximately $1.7 billion in outstanding debt obligations, consisting of $232.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility, $143.8 million outstanding under our 4.75% convertible notes due 2014, $315.4 million outstanding under our 4.25% Notes due June 2014, $350.0 million outstanding under our 7.25% senior notes due 2018, $514.5 million outstanding under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility and $150 million outstanding under the Partnership’s term loan facility.

In July 2011, we entered into a new five-year, $1.1 billion senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), which matures in July 2016 and replaced our former senior secured credit facility. As of September 30, 2012, we had $232.0 million in outstanding borrowings and $198.7 million in outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Facility. At September 30, 2012, taking into account guarantees through letters of credit and the March 2012 decrease in borrowing capacity discussed below, we had undrawn and available capacity of $ 469.3 million under the Credit Facility.

In March 2012, the Partnership and EXLP Operating LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, increased the borrowing capacity under their revolving credit facility by $200 million to $750 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Partnership incurred transaction costs of approximately $0.5 million related to the increase in borrowing capacity. These costs are included in Intangible and other assets, net and are being amortized over the term of the facility. Concurrently with this increase, we decreased the borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility by $200 million to $900 million. As a result of the decrease in borrowing capacity of our Credit Facility, we expensed approximately $1.3 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated

Table of Contents

with our Credit Facility in the first quarter of 2012, which is reflected in Interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a base rate or LIBOR, at our option, plus an applicable margin. Depending on our Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement), the applicable margin for revolving loans varies (i) in the case of LIBOR loans, from 1.50% to 2.50% and (ii) in the case of base rate loans, from 0.50% to 1.50%. The base rate is the highest of the prime rate announced by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% and one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%. At September 30, 2012, all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility were LIBOR loans and the applicable margin was 2.0%. The weighted average annual interest rate at September 30, 2012 on the outstanding balance under the Credit Facility, was 2.3%.

Our Significant Domestic Subsidiaries (as defined in the credit agreement) guarantee the debt under the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of the personal property assets and certain real property assets of us and our Significant Domestic Subsidiaries, including all of the equity interests of our U.S. subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) and 65% of the equity interests in certain of our first-tier foreign subsidiaries. The Partnership does not guarantee the debt under the Credit Facility, its assets are not collateral under the Credit Facility and the general partner units in the Partnership are not pledged under the Credit Facility. Subject to certain conditions, at our request, and with the approval of the lenders, the aggregate commitments under the Credit Facility may be increased by up to an additional $300 million.

The credit agreement contains various covenants with which we or certain of our subsidiaries must comply, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the use of proceeds from borrowings and limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate, sell assets, make certain investments and acquisitions, make loans, grant liens, repurchase equity and pay dividends and distributions. We are also subject to financial covenants, including a ratio of Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) to Total Interest Expense (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than 2.25 to 1.0, a ratio of consolidated Total Debt to Adjusted EBITDA of not greater than 5.0 to 1.0 and a ratio of Senior Secured Debt (as defined in the credit agreement) to Adjusted EBITDA of not greater than 4.0 to 1.0. As of September 30, 2012, we maintained a 4.6 to 1.0 Adjusted EBITDA to Total Interest Expense ratio, a 3.0 to 1.0 consolidated Total Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio and a 0.7 to 1.0 Senior Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio. If we fail to remain in compliance with our financial covenants we would be in default under our debt agreements. In addition, if we were to experience a material adverse effect on our assets, liabilities, financial condition, business or operations that, taken as a whole, impacts our ability to perform our obligations under our debt agreements, this could lead to a default under our debt agreements. A default under one or more of our debt agreements, including a default by the Partnership under its credit facility, would trigger cross-default provisions under certain of our other debt agreements, which would accelerate our obligation to repay our indebtedness under those agreements. As of September 30, 2012, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the credit agreement.

In November 2010, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior notes due December 2018 (the “7.25% Notes”). The 7.25% Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of our existing subsidiaries that guarantee indebtedness under the Credit Agreement and certain of our future subsidiaries. The Partnership and its subsidiaries have not guaranteed the 7.25% Notes. The 7.25% Notes and the guarantees are our and the guarantors’ general unsecured senior obligations, respectively, rank equally in right of payment with all of our and the guarantors’ other senior obligations, and are effectively subordinated to all of our and the guarantors’ existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. In addition, the 7.25% Notes and guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of our non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Prior to December 1, 2013, we may redeem all or a part of the 7.25% Notes at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount thereof, plus (ii) a make-whole premium at the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. In addition, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 7.25% Notes prior to December 1, 2013 with the net proceeds of a public or private equity offering at a redemption price of 107.250% of the principal amount of the 7.25% Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, if at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the 7.25% Notes issued under the indenture remains outstanding after such redemption and the redemption occurs within 120 days of the date of the closing of such equity offering. On or after December 1, 2013, we may redeem all or a part of the 7.25% Notes at redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) equal to 105.438% for the twelve-month period beginning on December 1, 2013, 103.625% for the twelve-month period beginning on December 1, 2014, 101.813% for the twelve-month period beginning on December 1, 2015 and 100.000% for the twelve-month period beginning on December 1, 2016 and at any time thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date on the 7.25% Notes.

In June 2009, we issued $355.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% convertible senior notes due June 2014 (the “4.25% Notes”). The 4.25% Notes are convertible upon the occurrence of certain conditions into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of 43.1951 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the convertible notes, equivalent to an initial

Table of Contents

conversion price of approximately $23.15 per share of common stock. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment following certain dilutive events and certain corporate transactions. We may not redeem the 4.25% Notes prior to their maturity date.

The 4.25% Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to our existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 4.25% Notes; equal in right of payment to our existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; junior in right of payment to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness and liabilities incurred by our subsidiaries. The 4.25% Notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries.

In November 2010, the Partnership, as guarantor, and EXLP Operating LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, as borrower, entered into an amendment and restatement of their senior secured credit agreement (the “Partnership Credit Agreement”) to provide for a new five-year, $550.0 million senior secured credit facility consisting of a $400.0 million revolving credit facility and a $150.0 million term loan facility. The revolving borrowing capacity under this facility was increased by $150.0 million to $550.0 million in March 2011, and by $200.0 million to $750.0 million in March 2012. As of September 30, 2012, the Partnership had $235.5 million of undrawn and available capacity under its revolving credit facility.

The Partnership’s revolving credit facility bears interest at a base rate or LIBOR, at the Partnership’s option, plus an applicable margin. Depending on the Partnership’s leverage ratio, the applicable margin for revolving loans varies (i) in the case of LIBOR loans, from 2.25% to 3.25% and (ii) in the case of base rate loans, from 1.25% to 2.25%. The base rate is the highest of the prime rate announced by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.5% and one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%. At September 30, 2012, all amounts outstanding under this facility were LIBOR loans and the applicable margin was 2.5%. The weighted average annual interest rate on the outstanding balance of this facility at September 30, 2012, excluding the effect of interest rate swaps, was 2.8%.

The Partnership’s term loan facility bears interest at a base rate or LIBOR, at the Partnership’s option, plus an applicable margin. Depending on the Partnership’s leverage ratio, the applicable margin for term loans varies (i) in the case of LIBOR loans, from 2.5% to 3.5% and (ii) in the case of base rate loans, from 1.5% to 2.5%. At September 30, 2012, all amounts outstanding under the term loan facility were LIBOR loans and the applicable margin was 2.75%. The average annual interest rate on the outstanding balance of the term loan facility at September 30, 2012 was 3.0%.

Borrowings under the Partnership Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the U.S. personal property assets of the Partnership and its Significant Domestic Subsidiaries (as defined in the Partnership Credit Agreement), including all of the membership interests of the Partnership’s Domestic Subsidiaries (as defined in the Partnership Credit Agreement).

The Partnership Credit Agreement contains various covenants with which the Partnership must comply, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the use of proceeds from borrowings and limitations on its ability to incur additional indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate, sell assets, make certain investments and acquisitions, make loans, grant liens, repurchase equity and pay dividends and distributions. It also contains various covenants requiring mandatory prepayments of the term loans from the net cash proceeds of certain future asset transfers. The Partnership must maintain various consolidated financial ratios, including a ratio of EBITDA (as defined in the Partnership Credit Agreement) to Total Interest Expense (as defined in the Partnership Credit Agreement) of not less than 3.0 to 1.0 (which will decrease to 2.75 to 1.0 following the occurrence of certain events specified in the Partnership Credit Agreement) and a ratio of Total Debt (as defined in the Partnership Credit Agreement) to EBITDA of not greater than 4.75 to 1.0. The Partnership Credit Agreement allows the Partnership’s Total Debt to EBITDA ratio to increase from 4.75 to 1.0 to 5.25 to 1.0 during a quarter when an acquisition meeting certain thresholds is completed and for the following two quarters after such an acquisition closes. The Partnership completed an acquisition from us meeting these thresholds in the first quarter of 2012; therefore, the maximum allowed ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA was 5.25 to 1.0 through September 30, 2012, reverting to 4.75 to 1.0 for the quarter ending December 31, 2012 and subsequent quarters. As of September 30, 2012, the Partnership maintained an 8.0 to 1.0 EBITDA to Total Interest Expense ratio and a 3.7 to 1.0 Total Debt to EBITDA ratio. A violation of the Partnership’s Total Debt to EBITDA covenant would be an event of default under the Partnership Credit Agreement, which would trigger cross-default provisions under certain of our debt agreements. As of September 30, 2012, the Partnership was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Partnership Credit Agreement.

We have entered into interest rate swap agreements related to a portion of our variable rate debt. In the fourth quarter of 2010, we paid $43.0 million to terminate interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $585.0 million and a weighted average rate of 4.6%. These swaps qualified for hedge accounting and were previously included on our balance sheet as a liability and in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The liability was paid in connection with the termination, and the associated amount in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is being amortized into interest expense over the original terms of the swaps. Of the total amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), $10.1 million was amortized into interest expense during

Table of Contents

the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and we expect $0.6 million to be amortized into interest expense during the remainder of 2012. See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for further discussion of our interest rate swap agreements.

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt though cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Historically, we have financed capital expenditures with a combination of net cash provided by operating and financing activities. Our ability to access the capital markets may be restricted at a time when we would like, or need, to do so, which could have an adverse impact on our ability to maintain our fleet and to grow. If any of our lenders become unable to perform their obligations under our credit facilities, our borrowing capacity under these facilities could be reduced. Inability to borrow additional amounts under those facilities could limit our ability to fund our future growth and operations. Based on current market conditions, we expect that net cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under our credit facilities will be sufficient to finance our operating expenditures, capital expenditures and scheduled interest and debt repayments through December 31, 2012; however, to the extent it is not, we may seek additional debt or equity financing.

Dividends. We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock since our formation, and we do not anticipate paying such dividends in the foreseeable future. Our board of directors anticipates that all cash flows generated from operations in the foreseeable future will be retained and used to repay our debt or develop and expand our business, except for a portion of the cash flow generated from operations of the Partnership which will be used to pay distributions on its units. Any future determinations to pay cash dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our results of operations and financial condition, credit and loan agreements in effect at that time and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors.

Partnership Distributions to Unitholders. The Partnership’s partnership agreement requires it to distribute all of its “available cash” quarterly. Under the partnership agreement, available cash is defined generally to mean, for each fiscal quarter, (1) cash on hand at the Partnership at the end of the quarter in excess of the amount of reserves its general partner determines is necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to comply with applicable law, any of its debt instruments or other agreements or to provide for future distributions to its unitholders for any one or more of the upcoming four quarters, plus, (2) if the Partnership’s general partner so determines, all or a portion of the Partnership’s cash on hand on the date of determination of available cash for the quarter.

Under the terms of the partnership agreement, there is no guarantee that unitholders will receive quarterly distributions from the Partnership. The Partnership’s distribution policy, which may be changed at any time, is subject to certain restrictions, including (1) restrictions contained in the Partnership’s revolving credit facility, (2) the Partnership’s general partner’s establishment of reserves to fund future operations or cash distributions to the Partnership’s unitholders, (3) restrictions contained in the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act and (4) the Partnership’s lack of sufficient cash to pay distributions.

Through our ownership of common units and all of the equity interests in the Partnership’s general partner, we expect to receive cash distributions from the Partnership.

On October 26, 2012, Exterran GP LLC’s board of directors approved a cash distribution by the Partnership of $0.5075 per limited partner unit, or approximately $23.0 million, including distributions to the Partnership’s general partner on its incentive distribution rights. The distribution covers the period from July 1, 2012 through September 30, 2012. The record date for this distribution is November 9, 2012 and payment is expected to occur on November 14, 2012.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We define gross margin as total revenue less cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization expense). Gross margin is included as a supplemental disclosure because it is a primary measure used by our management as it represents the results of revenue and cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization expense), which are key components of our operations. We believe gross margin is important because it focuses on the current operating performance of our operations and excludes the impact of the prior historical costs of the assets acquired or constructed that are utilized in those operations, the indirect costs associated with our SG&A activities, the impact of our financing methods and income taxes. Depreciation expense may not accurately reflect the costs required to maintain and replenish the operational usage of our assets and therefore may not portray the costs from current operating activity. As an indicator of our operating performance, gross margin should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our gross margin may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate gross margin in the same manner.

Table of Contents

Gross margin has certain material limitations associated with its use as compared to net income (loss). These limitations are primarily due to the exclusion of interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, SG&A expense, impairments and restructuring charges. Each of these excluded expenses is material to our condensed consolidated results of operations. Because we intend to finance a portion of our operations through borrowings, interest expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue. Additionally, because we use capital assets, depreciation expense is a necessary element of our costs and our ability to generate revenue, and SG&A expenses are necessary costs to support our operations and required corporate activities. To compensate for these limitations, management uses this non-GAAP measure as a supplemental measure to other GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of our performance.

For a reconciliation of gross margin to net income (loss), see Note 16 to the Financial Statements.

We define EBITDA, as adjusted, as net income (loss) excluding income (loss) from discontinued operations (net of tax), cumulative effect of accounting changes (net of tax), income taxes, interest expense (including debt extinguishment costs and gain or loss on termination of interest rate swaps), depreciation and amortization expense, impairment charges, merger and integration expenses, restructuring charges, non-cash gains or losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes recorded on intercompany obligations and other charges. We believe EBITDA, as adjusted, is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare our core operating results from period to period by removing the impact of our capital structure (interest expense from our outstanding debt), asset base (depreciation and amortization), our subsidiaries’ capital structure (non-cash gains or losses from foreign currency exchange rate changes on intercompany obligations), tax consequences, impairment charges, merger and integration expenses, restructuring charges and other charges. Management uses EBITDA, as adjusted, as a supplemental measure to review current period operating performance, comparability measures and performance measures for period to period comparisons. Our EBITDA, as adjusted, may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate EBITDA in the same manner.

EBITDA, as adjusted, is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities and other measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Items excluded from EBITDA, as adjusted, are significant and necessary components to the operations of our business, and, therefore, EBITDA, as adjusted, should only be used as a supplemental measure of our operating performance.

The following table reconciles our net income (loss) to EBITDA, as adjusted (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks primarily associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We use derivative financial instruments to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with financial activities by managing our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on a portion of our debt obligations. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

We have significant international operations. The net assets and liabilities of these operations are exposed to changes in currency exchange rates. These operations may also have net assets and liabilities not denominated in their functional currency, which exposes us to changes in foreign currency exchange rates that impact income. We recorded a foreign currency loss in our condensed consolidated statements of operations of $5.2 million and $14.3 million for the first nine months of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our foreign currency gains and losses are primarily due to exchange rate fluctuations related to monetary asset balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Changes in exchange rates may create gains or losses in future periods to the extent we maintain net assets and liabilities not denominated in the functional currency.

As of September 30, 2012, after taking into consideration interest rate swaps, we had approximately $646.5 million of outstanding indebtedness that was effectively subject to floating interest rates. A 1% increase in the effective interest rate on our outstanding debt subject to floating interest rates would result in an annual increase in our interest expense of approximately $6.5 million.

For further information regarding our use of interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations on a portion of our debt obligations, see Note 8 to the Financial Statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), which are designed to provide reasonable assurance that we are able to record, process, summarize and report the information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based on the evaluation, as of September 30, 2012, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and made known to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, on a timely basis to ensure that it is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the last fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business we are involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. While management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, we believe that any ultimate liability arising from any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation, however, we cannot provide assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the resolution occurs.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes or updates to our risk factors that were previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, except as follows:

Natural gas prices in North America are at low levels, which could decrease demand for our natural gas compression and oil and natural gas production and processing equipment and services, which could adversely affect our business.

Our revenue, earnings and financial position are affected by, among other things, market conditions that impact demand and pricing for natural gas compression and oil and natural gas production and processing. Oil and natural gas exploration and development activity and the number of well completions typically decline when there is a sustained reduction in oil or natural gas prices or significant instability in energy markets. Even the perception of longer-term lower oil or natural gas prices by oil and natural gas exploration, development and production companies can result in their decision to cancel, reduce or postpone major expenditures or to reduce or shut in well production. In April 2012, natural gas prices in North America fell to the lowest levels seen in more than a decade at around $2.00 per MMBtu and, as a result, certain companies announced a reduction in their natural gas drilling and production activities, particularly in dry gas areas. Since then, natural gas prices have improved somewhat to slightly in excess of $3.00 per MMBtu as of October 2012, but still remain at historically low levels. Additionally, in North America, compression services for our customers’ production from unconventional natural gas sources constitute an increasing percentage of our business. Some of these unconventional sources are less economic to produce in lower natural gas price environments. If the current price levels for natural gas continue or decrease, the level of production activity and the demand for our natural gas compression and oil and natural gas production and processing equipment and services could decrease, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. A reduction in demand for our products and services could also force us to reduce our pricing substantially.

There are many risks associated with conducting operations in international markets.

We operate in many countries outside the U.S., and these activities accounted for a substantial amount of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011. We are exposed to risks inherent in doing business in each of the countries in which we operate. Our operations are subject to various risks unique to each country that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For example, as discussed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements, in 2009 the Venezuelan state-owned oil company, Petroleos de Venezuela S.A. (“PDVSA”), assumed control over substantially all of our assets and operations in Venezuela.

More recently, in April 2012, Argentina assumed control over its largest oil and gas producer, Yacimientos Petroliferos Fiscales (“YPF”). We had 542,000 horsepower of compression in Argentina as of September 30, 2012, and we generated $113.4 million of revenue in Argentina, including $48 million of revenue from YPF, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. We are unable to predict what effect, if any, the nationalization of YPF will have on our business in Argentina, or whether Argentina will nationalize additional businesses in the oil and gas industry; however, the nationalization of YPF, the nationalization of additional businesses or the taking of other actions listed below by Argentina could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The risks inherent in our international business activities include the following:

· difficulties in managing international operations, including our ability to timely and cost effectively execute projects;

· unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, laws or policies by foreign agencies or governments;

· work stoppages;

Table of Contents

· training and retaining qualified personnel in international markets;

· the burden of complying with multiple and potentially conflicting laws and regulations;

· tariffs and other trade barriers;

· actions by governments or national oil companies that result in the nullification or renegotiation on less than favorable terms of existing contracts, or otherwise result in the deprivation of contractual rights, and other difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations;

· governmental actions that result in restricting the movement of property or that impede our ability to import or export parts or equipment;

· foreign currency exchange rate risks, including the risk of currency devaluations by foreign governments;

· difficulty in collecting international accounts receivable;

· potentially longer receipt of payment cycles;

· changes in political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate, including general political unrest, the nationalization of energy related assets, civil uprisings, riots, kidnappings, violence associated with drug cartels and terrorist acts;

· potentially adverse tax consequences or tax law changes;

· currency controls or restrictions on repatriation of earnings;

· expropriation, confiscation or nationalization of property without fair compensation;

· the risk that our international customers may have reduced access to credit because of higher interest rates, reduced bank lending or a deterioration in our customers’ or their lenders’ financial condition;

· complications associated with installing, operating and repairing equipment in remote locations;

· limitations on insurance coverage;

· inflation;

· the geographic, time zone, language and cultural differences among personnel in different areas of the world; and

· difficulties in establishing new international offices and the risks inherent in establishing new relationships in foreign countries.

In addition, we may plan to expand our business in international markets where we have not previously conducted business. The risks inherent in establishing new business ventures, especially in international markets where local customs, laws and business procedures present special challenges, may affect our ability to be successful in these ventures or avoid losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We are due to receive a substantial amount in installment payments from the purchaser of our previously nationalized Venezuelan assets, the nonpayment of which would reduce the anticipated amount of funds available to us to repay indebtedness and for general corporate purposes.

As discussed in Notes 2 and 6 to the Financial Statements, in March 2012 and August 2012, we sold our previously-nationalized Venezuelan joint venture assets and Venezuelan subsidiary assets, respectively, to PDVSA Gas, S.A. for aggregate consideration of $554 million. As of September 30, 2012, we have received approximately $224 million of the total ($50 million of which we used to repay insurance proceeds previously collected under the policy we maintained for the risk of expropriation) and are due to receive the remaining consideration of approximately $330 million in installments through the third quarter of 2016. We intend to use these remaining proceeds, as they are received, for the repayment of indebtedness and for general corporate purposes. Any failure by PDVSA Gas, S.A. to pay these installments when due would reduce the amount of anticipated funds available to us in the future for these purposes.

New regulations, proposed regulations and proposed modifications to existing regulations under the Clean Air Act (“CAA”), if implemented, could result in increased compliance costs.

On August 20, 2010, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) published new regulations under the CAA to control emissions of hazardous air pollutants from existing stationary reciprocal internal combustion engines. The rule will require us to undertake certain expenditures and activities, likely including purchasing and installing emissions control equipment, such as oxidation catalysts or non-selective catalytic reduction equipment, on a portion of our engines located at major sources of hazardous air pollutants and all our engines over a certain size regardless of location, following prescribed maintenance practices for engines (which are consistent with our existing practices), and implementing additional emissions testing and monitoring. On October 19, 2010, we submitted a legal challenge to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit and a Petition for Administrative Reconsideration to the EPA for some monitoring aspects of the rule. The legal challenge has been held in abeyance since December 3, 2010, pending the EPA’s consideration of the Petition for Administrative Reconsideration. On January 5, 2011, the EPA approved the request for reconsideration of the monitoring issues and that reconsideration process is ongoing. On June 7, 2012, the EPA published proposed changes to the regulation in response to the petition such that, among other things, the proposed rule will require catalyst installation only on equipment at sites that in effect do not meet the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) definition of “remote.” All other engines will be subject to management practices only. The comment period for the proposed changes ended August 9, 2012. We await the EPA’s response to the comments received. At this point, we cannot predict when, how or if an EPA or a court ruling would modify the final rule, and as a result we cannot currently accurately predict the cost to comply with the rule’s requirements. Compliance with the final rule is required by October 2013.

In addition, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) has finalized revisions to certain air permit programs that significantly increase the air permitting requirements for new and certain existing oil and gas production and gathering sites for 23 counties in the Barnett Shale production area. The final rule establishes new emissions standards for engines, which could impact the operation of specific categories of engines by requiring the use of alternative engines, compressor packages or the installation of aftermarket emissions control equipment. The rule became effective for the Barnett Shale production area in April 2011, and the lower emissions standards will become applicable between 2015 and 2030 depending on the type of engine and the permitting requirements. Our cost to comply with the revised air permit programs is not expected to be material at this time. Although the TCEQ had previously stated it would consider expanding application of the new air permit program statewide, the Texas Legislature adopted legislation prohibiting such an expansion in the near term, including by preventing the TCEQ from expending funds to extend the rule’s geographic scope prior to August 31, 2013 and prior to conducting and providing to the Texas Legislature an economic impact study regarding any such expansion. At this point, we cannot predict whether or when such a geographic expansion of those rules might occur or the cost to comply with any such requirements.

On May 21, 2012, the EPA issued new ozone nonattainment designations for all areas except Chicago, in relation to the 2008 national ambient air quality standard (“NAAQS”) for ozone. Among other things, these new designations add Wise County to the Dallas-Fort Worth (“DFW”) nonattainment area. This new designation will require Texas to modify its State Implementation Plan (“SIP”) to include a plan to get Wise County into compliance with the ozone NAAQS. This modification process typically takes about three to five years. If Texas implements the same control requirements in Wise County that are already in place in the other counties in the DFW nonattainment area, we could have to modify or remove and replace a significant amount of equipment we currently utilize in Wise County. However, at this point we cannot predict what Texas’ new SIP will require or what equipment will still be operating in Wise County when it comes into effect and, as a result, we cannot currently accurately predict the impact or cost to comply.

On August 16, 2012, the EPA published final rules that establish new air emission controls for natural gas and natural gas liquids production, processing and transportation activities, including New Source Performance Standards to address emissions of sulfur dioxide and volatile organic compounds, and a separate set of emission standards to address hazardous air pollutants frequently associated with production and processing activities. Among other things, the rules establish specific requirements regarding emissions from compressors and controllers at natural gas gathering and boosting stations and processing plants together with dehydrators and storage tanks at natural gas processing plants, compressor stations and gathering and boosting stations. In addition, the rules establish new requirements for leak detection and repair of leaks at natural gas processing plants that exceed 500 parts per million in concentration.

These new regulations and proposals, when finalized, and any other new regulations requiring the installation of more sophisticated pollution control equipment or the adoption of other environmental protection measures, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Climate change legislation and regulatory initiatives could result in increased compliance costs.

The U.S. Congress has considered legislation to restrict or regulate emissions of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane. One bill, passed by the House of Representatives, if enacted by the full Congress, would have required greenhouse gas emissions reductions by covered sources of as much as 17% from 2005 levels by 2020 and by as much as 83% by 2050. It presently appears unlikely that comprehensive climate legislation will be passed by either house of Congress in the near future, although energy legislation and other initiatives continue to be proposed that may be relevant to greenhouse gas emissions issues. In addition, almost half of the states, either individually or through multi-state regional initiatives, have begun to address greenhouse gas emissions, primarily through the planned development of emission inventories or regional greenhouse gas cap and trade programs. Although most of the state-level initiatives have to date been focused on large sources of greenhouse gas emissions, such as electric power plants, it is possible that smaller sources such as our gas-fired compressors could become subject to greenhouse gas-related regulation. Depending on the particular program, we could be required to control emissions or to purchase and surrender allowances for greenhouse gas emissions resulting from our operations.

Independent of Congress, the EPA is beginning to adopt regulations controlling greenhouse gas emissions under its existing CAA authority. The EPA has adopted rules requiring many facilities, including petroleum and natural gas systems, to inventory and report their greenhouse gas emissions. These rules triggered reporting obligations for two sites we operated in 2011, and we anticipate the same obligation in 2012. In addition, the EPA in June 2010 published a final rule providing for the tailored applicability of air permitting requirements for greenhouse gas emissions. The EPA reported that the rulemaking was necessary because without it certain permitting requirements would apply as of January 2011 at an emissions level that would have greatly increased the number of required permits and, among other things, imposed undue costs on small sources and overwhelmed the resources of permitting authorities. In the rule, the EPA established two initial steps of phase-in to minimize those burdens, excluding certain smaller sources from greenhouse gas permitting until at least April 30, 2016. On January 2, 2011, the first step of the phase-in applied only to new projects at major sources (as defined under those CAA permitting programs) that, among other things, increase net greenhouse gas emissions by 75,000 tons per year. In July 2011, the second step of the phase-in began requiring permitting for otherwise minor sources of air emissions that have the potential to emit at least 100,000 tons per year of greenhouse gases. On July 3, 2012, the EPA issued final regulations for “Phase III” of its program, retaining the permitting thresholds established in Phases I and II. These rules will affect some of our and our customers’ largest new or modified facilities going forward.

Although it is not currently possible to predict how any proposed or future greenhouse gas legislation or regulation by Congress, the states or multi-state regions will impact our business, any legislation or regulation of greenhouse gas emissions that may be imposed in areas in which we conduct business could result in increased compliance costs or additional operating restrictions or reduced demand for our services, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
