DRIL-QUIP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.    Organization and Principles of Consolidation

Dril-Quip, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Dril-Quip”) designs, manufactures, sells and services highly engineered offshore drilling and production equipment that is well suited for use in deepwater, harsh environment and severe service applications. The Company’s principal products consist of subsea and surface wellheads, subsea and surface production trees, mudline hanger systems, specialty connectors and associated pipe, drilling and production riser systems, wellhead connectors and diverters. Dril-Quip’s products are used by major integrated, large independent and foreign national oil and gas companies in offshore areas throughout the world. Dril-Quip also provides installation and reconditioning services and rents running tools for use in the installation and retrieval of its products.

The Company’s operations are organized into three geographic segments—Western Hemisphere (including North and South America; headquartered in Houston, Texas), Eastern Hemisphere (including Europe and Africa; headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland) and Asia-Pacific (including the Pacific Rim, Southeast Asia, Australia, India and the Middle East; headquartered in Singapore). Each of these segments sells similar products and services and the Company has major manufacturing facilities in all three of its headquarter locations.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Dril-Quip and are unaudited, except for the balance sheet at December 31, 2005, which has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of September 30, 2006, the results of operations for each of the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, and the cash flows for each of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. Although management believes the unaudited interim related disclosures in these consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations and the cash flows for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

2.    Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of the Company’s more significant estimates are those affected by critical accounting policies for revenue recognition, inventories and contingent liabilities as discussed more fully in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

 

5


Cash and cash equivalents

Investments that have a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents.

Inventories

Inventory costs are determined principally by the use of the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventory is valued principally using standard costs that are calculated based upon direct costs incurred and overhead allocations. Periodically, obsolescence reviews are performed on slow-moving inventories and reserves are established based on current assessments about future demands and market conditions. The inventory values have been reduced by a reserve for excess and obsolete inventories. Inventory reserves of $17.7 million and $11.7 million were recorded as of September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. If market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves may be required.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost, with depreciation provided on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided on income and expenses which are reported in different periods for income tax and financial reporting purposes.

Common Stock

All share and per share data (except par value) have been adjusted for all periods presented for the two-for-one common stock split described in Note 6.

Revenue Recognition

The Company delivers most of its products and services to its customers on an as-needed basis and records revenues as the products are shipped and as services are rendered. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined generally on a case by case basis. Certain revenues are derived from long-term product contracts which generally require more than one year to fulfill. Revenues and profits on long-term product contracts are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs. Losses, if any, on contracts are fully recognized when they become known. Contracts for long-term projects contain provisions for customer progress payments. Payments in excess of revenues recognized are included as a customer prepayment liability.

Foreign Currency

The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at period end exchange rates except for revenues and expenses, which are translated at average monthly rates. Translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and have no current effect on earnings or cash flows.

Foreign currency exchange transactions are recorded using the exchange rate at the date of the settlement. These amounts are included in selling, general and administrative costs in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Stock-Based Compensation

On September 19, 1997, the Company adopted the Dril-Quip, Inc. 1997 Incentive Plan (as amended, the “1997 Plan”) and the Company reserved 3,400,000 shares of Common Stock for use in connection with the 1997 Plan. During 2001, the Company reserved an additional 1,400,000 shares for use in connection with the 1997 Plan. Options granted under the 1997 Plan have a term of ten years and become exercisable in cumulative annual increments of one-fourth of the total number of shares of Common Stock subject thereto, beginning on the first anniversary of the date of the grant. On May 13, 2004, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2004 Incentive Plan of Dril-Quip, Inc. (the “2004 Plan”), which reserved up to 2,696,294 shares of Common Stock to be used in connection with the 2004 Plan. Options under both plans are granted at the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date. No additional options will be awarded under the 1997 Plan. No options were granted during the first nine months of 2005 and 2006. On October 27, 2006, the Nominating, Governance and Compensation Committee of the board of directors of the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 264,435 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the 2004 Plan to certain officers and employees of the Company.

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123—Revised 2004, “Stock-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”) using the modified prospective application and accordingly, no prior periods have been restated. The Company is recognizing compensation expense for the unvested portion of awards outstanding at January 1, 2006 ratably over the remaining vesting period based on the fair value at the date of the grant. The fair value of the options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Prior to adopting SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB No. 25”) and complied with the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of the grant, between the fair value of the Company’s stock and the exercise price of the option. No stock-based employee compensation cost was recognized in the Company’s financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, as all options previously granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, and debt instruments. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their respective fair values as they are either short-term in nature or carry interest rates which approximate market rates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. The Company grants credit to its customers, which operate primarily in the oil and gas industry. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential losses and such losses have historically been within management’s expectations.

Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes the rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components. SFAS No. 130 requires the Company to include unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency translation adjustments in other comprehensive income. Generally, gains are attributed to a weakening U.S. dollar and losses are the result of a strengthening U.S. dollar.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed considering the dilutive effect of stock options.

The net income used in the basic and dilutive earnings per share calculations is the same. The following table reconciles the number of common shares outstanding at September 30 of each year to the weighted average of common shares outstanding and the weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the purpose of calculating basic and diluted earnings per common share:

New Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”) which defines and measures fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement and not an entity-specific measurement. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 157 on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income tax positions. This interpretation prescribes that the Company recognize in its financial statements the impact of a tax position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position, including resolution of any appeals. The interpretation provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on its consolidated financial statements.

3.    Stock-Based Compensation and Stock Option Awards

As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R), stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 totaled $434,000 and $1,287,000, respectively, related to unvested outstanding stock option grants and no stock-based compensation expenses were capitalized. The Company’s

income net of income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $288,000 and $856,000 lower, respectively, than if the Company had continued to account for stock-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25.

Had stock-based compensation expense for the Company’s plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards consistent with the method available under SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income and earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts listed below.

6.    Common Stock

In September 2006, the board of directors of the Company approved a two-for-one common stock split in the form of a stock dividend. As a result, the split was paid in the form of a stock dividend on October 5, 2006 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 21, 2006. The Company issued 19.9 million shares of common stock as a result of the stock split. In addition, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our employee benefit plans were proportionately increased in accordance with the terms of those respective agreements and plans. The transaction reduced additional paid-in capital by $0.2 million and increased common stock by $0.2 million. All share and per share data (except par value) have been restated to reflect the stock split.

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

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of significant factors that have affected certain aspects of the Company’s financial position and results of operations during the periods included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein, the discussion under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the annual consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

In September 2006, our board of directors approved a two-for-one split of our common stock which was distributed in the form of a stock dividend on October 5, 2006 to stockholders of record on September 21, 2006. All share and per share data (except par value) in this Form 10-Q have been adjusted to reflect the effect of this stock split for all periods presented.

Overview

Dril-Quip designs, manufactures, sells and services highly engineered offshore drilling and production equipment that is well suited for use in deepwater, harsh environment and severe service applications. The Company designs and manufactures subsea equipment, surface equipment and offshore rig equipment for use by major integrated, large independent and foreign national oil and gas companies in offshore areas throughout the world. The Company’s principal products consist of subsea and surface wellheads, subsea and surface production trees, mudline hanger systems, specialty connectors and associated pipe, drilling and production riser systems, wellhead connectors and diverters. Dril-Quip also provides installation and reconditioning services and rents running tools for use in connection with the installation and retrieval of its products.

Both the market for offshore drilling and production equipment and services and the Company’s business are substantially dependent on the condition of the oil and gas industry and, in particular, the willingness of oil and gas companies to make capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore. Oil and gas prices and the level of offshore drilling and production activity have historically been characterized by significant volatility.

Revenues.    Dril-Quip’s revenues are generated from two sources: products and services. Product revenues are derived from the sale of offshore drilling and production equipment and service revenues are earned when the Company provides installation and reconditioning services as well as rental running tools for installation and retrieval of its products. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Company derived 83% of its revenues from the sale of its products and 17% of its revenues from services. Service revenues generally correlate to revenues from product sales because increased product sales generate increased revenues from installation services and rental running tools. Substantially all of Dril-Quip’s sales are made on a purchase order basis. Purchase orders are subject to change and/or termination at the option of the customer. In case of a change or termination, the customer is required to pay the Company for work performed and other costs necessarily incurred as a result of the change or termination.

The Company accounts for larger and more complex projects that have relatively longer manufacturing time frames on a percentage-of-completion basis. For the first nine months of 2006, 8 projects representing approximately 10% of the Company’s revenues were accounted for using percentage-of-completion accounting. This percentage may fluctuate in the future. Revenues accounted for in this manner are generally recognized based on the ratio of costs incurred to the total estimated costs. Accordingly, price and cost estimates are reviewed periodically as the work progresses and adjustments proportionate to the percentage-of-completion are reflected in the period when such estimates are revised. Losses, if any, are recognized when they become known. Amounts billed to or received from customers in excess of revenues recognized are classified as a current liability.

 

12


Foreign sales represent a significant portion of the Company’s business. In the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Company generated approximately 63% of its revenues from sales outside the United States. In this period, approximately 67% (on the basis of revenues generated) of all products sold were manufactured in the United States.

Cost of Sales.    The principal elements of cost of sales are labor, raw materials and manufacturing overhead. Variable costs, such as labor, raw materials, supplies and energy, generally account for approximately two-thirds of the Company’s cost of sales. Fixed costs, such as the fixed portion of manufacturing overhead, constitute the remainder of the Company’s cost of sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues is also influenced by the product mix sold in any particular period and market conditions. The Company’s costs related to its foreign operations do not significantly differ from its domestic costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.    Selling, general and administrative expenses include the costs associated with sales and marketing, general corporate overhead, compensation expense, legal expenses, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, and other related administrative functions.

Engineering and Product Development Expenses.    Engineering and product development expenses consist of new product development and testing, as well as application engineering related to customized products.

Income Tax Provision.    Dril-Quip’s effective tax rate has historically been lower than the statutory rate due to benefits from its foreign sales corporation or foreign income tax rate differentials.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2005.

Revenues.    Revenues increased by $22.5 million, or approximately 23.5%, to $117.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $95.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2005. The net increase resulted primarily from increased product revenues in the Western Hemisphere, Eastern Hemisphere and Asia-Pacific of $12.5 million, $864,000 and $2.6 million, respectively. Service revenues increased by approximately $6.5 million with increased service revenues in the Western Hemisphere, Eastern Hemisphere and Asia-Pacific of $1.5 million, $4.3 million and $685,000 respectively. In general, the increase in revenues resulted

 

13


from increased demand for the Company’s products and services realized on a worldwide basis as oil and gas

companies have increased their levels of capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore.

Cost of Sales.    Cost of sales increased by $3.4 million, or approximately 5.4%, to $67.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $64.2 million for the same period in 2005. As a percentage of

revenues, cost of sales were approximately 57.4% and 67.3% for each of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The reduction in cost of sales as a percentage of revenues resulted primarily from changes in product mix, pricing and efficiencies realized from the increased utilization of the Company’s manufacturing facilities.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.    For the three months ended September 30, 2006, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.5 million or approximately 14.4%, to $12.3 million from $10.8 million in the 2005 period. This increase was primarily due to increased labor and overhead expenses of approximately $900,000 resulting from increased staffing levels in the areas of sales, administration and finance, increased legal and professional fees of approximately $350,000 and stock option expenses of approximately $400,000. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased from 11.3% in 2005 to 10.5% in 2006.

Engineering and Product Development Expenses.    For the three months ended September 30, 2006, engineering and product development expenses decreased by approximately $507,000 or 9.6% to $4.8 million from $5.3 million in the same period of 2005. This decrease was primarily due to a slight reduction in engineering requirements. Engineering and product development expenses as a percentage of revenues declined from 5.5% in 2005 to 4.0% in 2006.

Interest Income/Expense.    Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $1.0 million as compared to interest expense of $549,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2005. This change resulted from the partial use of proceeds from the Company’s December 2005 offering of common stock to pay down long-term debt and from interest earned on short-term investments of cash provided by operating activities.

Income tax provision.    Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $10.7 million on income before taxes of $34.1 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 31%. Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $4.7 million on income before taxes of $14.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately 32%.

Net Income.    Net income was approximately $23.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and $9.8 million for the same period in 2005, for the reasons set forth above.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005.

Revenues.    Revenues increased by $78.5 million, or approximately 31.9%, to $324.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $245.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The net increase resulted primarily from increased product revenues in the Western Hemisphere, Eastern Hemisphere and Asia-Pacific of $39.0 million, $13.6 million and $7.7 million, respectively. Service revenues increased by approximately $18.2 million with increased service revenues in the Western Hemisphere, Eastern Hemisphere and Asia-Pacific of $4.5 million, $10.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively. In general, the increase in revenues resulted from increased demand for the Company’s products realized on a worldwide basis as oil and gas companies have increased their levels of capital expenditures on exploration, drilling and production operations offshore.

Cost of Sales.    Cost of sales increased by $19.8 million, or approximately 11.7%, to $188.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $168.9 million for the same period in 2005. As a percentage of revenues, cost of sales were approximately 58.1% and 68.7% for the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The reduction in cost of sales as a percentage of revenues resulted primarily from

 

14


changes in product mix, pricing and efficiencies realized from the increased utilization of the Company’s manufacturing facilities.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.    For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $3.0 million, or 10.0%, to $32.7 million from $29.7 million in the 2005 period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to higher labor and overhead expenses of $3.6 million resulting from increased staffing levels in the areas of sales, administration and finance and $1.3 million in stock option expenses. The Company experienced approximately $2.0 million in pre-tax foreign currency transaction gains during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 versus approximately $16,000 foreign currency transaction gains during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The 2006 gain resulted primarily from the weakening of the U.S. dollar versus the British pound sterling combined with increased intercompany receivable balances due to the Company from its U.K. subsidiary. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues declined from 12.1% in 2005 to 10.1% in 2006.

Engineering and Product Development Expenses.    For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, engineering and product development expenses decreased by $1.5 million, or approximately 9.3% to approximately $14.5 million from $16.0 million in the same period of 2005. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in engineering requirements. Engineering and product development expenses as a percentage of revenues declined from 6.5% in 2005 to 4.5% in 2006.

Interest Income/Expense.    Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $1.5 million as compared to interest expense of $1.3 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005. This change resulted from the partial use of proceeds from the Company’s December 2005 offering of common stock to pay down long-term debt and from interest earned on short-term investments of cash provided by operating activities.

Income tax provision.    Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $28.1 million on income before taxes of $90.1 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 31%. Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $9.2 million on income before taxes of $30.0 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 31%.

Net Income.     Net income was approximately $62.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $20.9 million for the same period in 2005, for the reasons set forth above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary liquidity needs of the Company are (i) to fund capital expenditures to improve and expand facilities and manufacture additional rental running tools and (ii) to fund working capital. The Company’s principal sources of funds are cash flows from operations and bank indebtedness.

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was approximately $64.8 million and ($11.1 million) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The improvements in cash flow from operating activities were principally due to increased net income and accrued liabilities offset by increased working capital requirements for trade receivables and deferred tax benefits.

Capital expenditures by the Company were $18.6 million and $14.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The expenditures in each period were primarily for facilities, machinery and costs associated with the construction of rental running tools. Principal payments on long term debt were $599,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006, versus principal payments of $779,000 and for the same period in 2005. Long-term borrowings totaled $206,000 and $160,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 respectively.

The Company has a credit facility with Guaranty Bank, FSB providing an unsecured revolving line of credit of up to $65 million. At the option of the Company, borrowing under this facility bears interest at either a rate equal to LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus 1.75% or the Guaranty Bank base rate. The facility calls

 

15


for quarterly interest payments and terminates on June 1, 2009. The facility also contains certain covenants including maintaining minimum tangible net worth levels, not exceeding specified funded debt amounts and required interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2006, the Company had no borrowings under this facility and was in compliance with all loan covenants.

Dril-Quip (Europe) Limited has a credit agreement with the Bank of Scotland dated March 21, 2001 in the original amount of U.K. Pounds Sterling 4.0 million (approximately U.S. $7.5 million). Borrowing under this facility bears interest at the Bank of Scotland base rate, which was 4.75% at September 30, 2006, plus 1%, and is repayable in 120 equal monthly installments, plus interest. Substantially all of this facility was used to finance capital expenditures in Norway. The outstanding balance of this facility at September 30, 2006 was approximately U.S. $3.4 million. The facility is secured by land and buildings in Aberdeen, Scotland and contains no restrictive financial covenants.

The Company believes that cash generated from operations plus cash on hand and its existing line of credit will be sufficient to fund operations, working capital needs and anticipated capital expenditure requirements in 2006. However, any significant future declines in hydrocarbon prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity. Should market conditions result in unexpected cash requirements, the Company believes that additional borrowing from commercial lending institutions would be readily available and more than adequate to meet such requirements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 for a discussion of our critical accounting policies. During the nine months ended September 30, 2006 there were no material changes in our judgements and assumptions associated with the development of our critical accounting policies.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is currently exposed to certain market risks related to interest rate changes and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company does not believe that these risks are material. The Company does not engage in any material hedging transactions, forward contracts or currency trading which could be subject to market risks inherent to such transactions.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

Through its subsidiaries, the Company conducts a portion of its business in currencies other than the United States dollar, principally the British pound sterling. In addition, the Company has short-term intercompany loans and intercompany balances outstanding from its subsidiaries. The Company experienced a foreign currency pre-tax loss of approximately $240,000 and a pre-tax gain of approximately $2.0 million during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006, respectively. The year-to-date gain was the result of increases in the intercompany receivable balances due to the Company from its U.K. subsidiary and the strengthening of the British pound sterling versus the U.S. dollar. Historically, the Company’s foreign currency gains and losses have not been significant. However, when significant disparities between the British pound sterling and the U.S. dollar occur, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to protect itself against such currency fluctuations.

Interest Rate Risk

As described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources,” the Company has entered into two credit facilities or loans that require the Company to pay interest at a floating rate. These floating-rate obligations expose the Company to the risk of increased interest expense in the event of increases in the short-term interest rates. Based upon the September 30, 2006 balance of approximately $3.4 million related to these floating rate obligations, each 1.0% rise in interest rates would result in additional annual interest expense to the Company of approximately $34,000, or $8,500 per quarter.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2006 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

“Management’s Annual Reports on Internal Control over Financial Reporting” appears on page 30 of the 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

    compliance with present and future environmental regulations and costs associated with environmentally related penalties, capital expenditures, remedial actions and proceedings;

 

    effects of pending legal proceedings; and

 

    future operations, financial results, business plans and cash needs.

These statements are based on assumptions and analyses in light of the Company’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors the Company believes were appropriate in the circumstances when the statements were made. Forward-looking statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such statements. While it is not possible to identify all factors, the Company continues to face many risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially are the risks and uncertainties discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 and the following:

 

    the volatility of oil and natural gas prices;

 

    the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry;

 

    uncertainties associated with the United States and worldwide economies, including those due to political tensions in the Middle East and elsewhere;

 

    current and potential governmental regulatory actions in the United States and regulatory actions and political unrest in other countries;

 

    operating interruptions (including explosions, fires, weather-related incidents, mechanical failure, unscheduled downtime, labor difficulties, transportation interruptions, spills and releases and other environmental risks);

 

    the Company’s reliance on product development;

 

    technological developments;

 

    the Company’s dependence on key employees and skilled machinists, fabricators and technical personnel;

 

    the Company’s reliance on sources of raw materials;

 

    control by certain stockholders;

 

    impact of environmental matters;

 

    competitive products and pricing pressures;

 

    the Company’s reliance on significant customers;

 

    creditworthiness of the Company’s customers;

 

    access to capital markets; and

 

    war and terrorist acts.

Many of such factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. Any of the factors, or a combination of these factors, could materially affect the Company’s future results of operations and the ultimate accuracy of the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and the Company’s actual results and future developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Management cautions against putting undue reliance on forward-looking statements or projecting any future results based on such statements or present or prior earnings levels. Every forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement, and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement.
