NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. GENERAL
Key Energy Services, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Key,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “its,” and “our”) provide a full range of well services to major oil companies, foreign national oil companies and independent oil and natural gas production companies. Our services include rig-based and coiled tubing-based well maintenance and workover services, well completion and recompletion services, fluid management services, fishing and rental services, and other ancillary oilfield services. Additionally, certain rigs are capable of specialty drilling applications. We operate in most major oil and natural gas producing regions of the continental United States and have operations in Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, the Middle East and Russia. In addition, we have a technology development and control systems business based in Canada.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The condensed December 31, 2013 balance sheet was prepared from audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Form 10-K”). Certain information relating to our organization and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2013 Form 10-K.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report include all normal and recurring material adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any other interim period, due to fluctuations in demand for our services, timing of maintenance and other expenditures, and other factors.
We have evaluated events occurring after the balance sheet date included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and through the date on which the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, for possible disclosure of a subsequent event.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to develop estimates and to make assumptions that affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These estimates may also impact the nature and extent of our disclosure, if any, of our contingent liabilities. Among other things, we use estimates to (i) analyze assets for possible impairment, (ii) determine depreciable lives for our assets, (iii) assess future tax exposure and realization of deferred tax assets, (iv) determine amounts to accrue for contingencies, (v) value tangible and intangible assets, (vi) assess workers’ compensation, vehicular liability, self-insured risk accruals and other insurance reserves, (vii) provide allowances for our uncollectible accounts receivable, (viii) value our asset retirement obligations, and (ix) value our equity-based compensation. We review all significant estimates on a recurring basis and record the effect of any necessary adjustments prior to publication of our financial statements. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates relate to improved information not previously available. Because of the limitations inherent in this process, our actual results may differ materially from these estimates. We believe that the estimates used in the preparation of these interim financial statements are reasonable.
There have been no material changes or developments in our evaluation of accounting estimates and underlying assumptions or methodologies that we believe to be a “Critical Accounting Policy or Estimate” as disclosed in our 2013 Form 10-K.
Accounting Standards Adopted or Not Yet Adopted in this Report
There are no new accounting standards that have been adopted or not yet adopted in this report.

NOTE 3. ACQUISITION OF NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
Geostream. On October 31, 2008, we acquired a 26% interest in OOO Geostream Services Group (“Geostream”), a limited liability company incorporated in the Russian Federation that provides a wide range of drilling, workover and reservoir engineering services for $17.4 million. On September 1, 2009, we acquired an additional 24% interest for $16.4 million, which brought our total investment in Geostream to 50% and provided us a controlling interest with representation on Geostream's board of directors. We accounted for the second investment as a business combination achieved in stages. The results of Geostream have been included in our consolidated financial statements since the initial acquisition date, with the portion outside of our control forming a noncontrolling interest. On April 9, 2013, we completed the acquisition of the 50% noncontrolling interest in Geostream for $14.6 million. Geostream is now our wholly owned subsidiary. This acquisition of the 50% noncontrolling interest in Geostream was accounted for as an equity transaction. Therefore, our acquisition of the non-controlling interest in Geostream in the second quarter of 2013 did not result in a gain or loss.
AlMansoori Key Energy Services, LLC. On March 7, 2010, we entered into an agreement with AlMansoori Petroleum Services, LLC (“AlMansoori”) to form the joint venture AlMansoori Key Energy Services, LLC, a joint venture under the laws of Abu Dhabi, UAE. The purpose of the joint venture was to engage in conventional workover and drilling services, coiled tubing services, fishing and rental services, rig monitoring services, pipe handling services and fluids, waste treatment and handling services. Although AlMansoori held a 51% interest in the joint venture and we held a 49% interest, we held three of the five board of directors seats and a controlling financial interest. In addition, profits and losses of the joint venture were shared on equal terms and in equal amounts with AlMansoori. Because the joint venture did not have sufficient resources to carry on its activities without our financial support, we determined it to be a variable interest entity of which we were the primary beneficiary. We consolidated the entity in our financial statements. On August 5, 2013, we agreed to the dissolution of AlMansoori Key Energy Services, LLC and the acquisition of the underlying business for $5.1 million. The $5.1 million is expected to be paid in 2014 and is recorded in "Other current liabilities" in our consolidated balance sheet. The acquisition of the 51% noncontrolling interest in AlMansoori Key Energy Services, LLC was accounted for as an equity transaction therefore did not result in a gain or loss.

8.375% Senior Notes due 2014
On February 25, 2014, we redeemed the $3.6 million aggregate principal amount and paid $0.1 million accrued interest of 8.375% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) pursuant to the indenture dated as of November 29, 2007 (as supplemented, the “Indenture”). The 2014 Notes were general unsecured senior obligations and were subordinate to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness. The 2014 Notes were jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the 2014 Notes was payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year.
6.75% Senior Notes due 2021
We issued $475.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Initial 2021 Notes”) on March 4, 2011 and issued an additional $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes (the “Additional 2021 Notes” and together with the Initial 2021 Notes, the “2021 Notes”) in a private placement on March 8, 2012 under an indenture dated March 4, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated March 4, 2011 and amended by a further supplemental indenture dated March 8, 2012 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). We used the net proceeds to repay senior secured indebtedness under our revolving bank credit facility. We capitalized $4.6 million of financing costs associated with the issuance of the 2021 Notes that will be amortized over the term of the notes.
11
On March 5, 2013, we completed an offer to exchange the $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unregistered Additional 2021 Notes for an equal principal amount of such notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933. All of the 2021 Notes are treated as a single class under the Indenture and as of the closing of the exchange offers bear the same CUSIP and ISIN numbers.
The 2021 Notes are general unsecured senior obligations and are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness. The 2021 Notes are or will be jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the 2021 Notes is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The 2021 Notes mature on March 1, 2021.
On or after March 1, 2016, the 2021 Notes will be subject to redemption at any time and from time to time at our option, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices below (expressed as percentages of the principal amount redeemed), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on March 1 of the years indicated below:
Year | Percentage | |
2016 | 103.375 | % |
2017 | 102.250 | % |
2018 | 101.125 | % |
2019 and thereafter | 100.000 | % |
At any time and from time to time prior to March 1, 2016, we may, at our option, redeem all or a portion of the 2021 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a premium with respect to the 2021 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The premium is the excess of (i) the present value of the redemption price of 103.375% of the principal amount, plus all remaining scheduled interest payments due through March 1, 2016 discounted at the treasury rate plus 0.5% over (ii) the principal amount of the note. If we experience a change of control, subject to certain exceptions, we must give holders of the 2021 Notes the opportunity to sell to us their 2021 Notes, in whole or in part, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.
We are subject to certain negative covenants under the Indenture. The Indenture limits our ability to, among other things:
• | incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred equity interests; |
• | pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem equity interests; |
• | make loans and investments; |
• | enter into sale and leaseback transactions; |
• | sell, transfer or otherwise convey assets; |
• | create liens; |
• | enter into transactions with affiliates; |
• | enter into agreements restricting subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; |
• | designate future subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; and |
• | consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of the applicable entities’ assets. |
These covenants are subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, and contain cross-default provisions relating to the covenants of our 2011 Credit Facility discussed below. Substantially all of the covenants will terminate before the 2021 Notes mature if one of two specified ratings agencies assigns the 2021 Notes an investment grade rating in the future and no events of default exist under the Indenture. As of March 31, 2014, the 2021 Notes were rated below investment grade. Any covenants that cease to apply to us as a result of achieving an investment grade rating will not be restored, even if the investment rating assigned to the 2021 Notes later falls below investment grade. We were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2014.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
We are party to a $550.0 million senior secured revolving bank credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent, and Capital One, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank and DnB NOR Bank ASA, as Co-Documentation Agent (as amended, the “2011 Credit Facility”), which is an important source of liquidity for us. The 2011 Credit Facility consists of a revolving credit facility, letter of credit sub-facility and swing line facility, all of which will mature no later than March 31, 2016.
The maximum amount that we may borrow under the facility may be subject to limitation due to the operation of the covenants contained in the facility. The 2011 Credit Facility allows us to request increases in the total commitments under the
12
facility by up to $100.0 million in the aggregate in part or in full anytime during the term of the 2011 Credit Facility, with any such increases being subject to compliance with the restrictive covenants in the 2011 Credit Facility and in the Indenture governing our 2021 Senior Notes, as well as lender approval.
We capitalized $4.9 million of financing costs in connection with the execution of the 2011 Credit Facility and an additional $1.4 million related to a subsequent amendment that will be amortized over the term of the debt.
The interest rate per annum applicable to the 2011 Credit Facility is, at our option, (i) adjusted LIBOR plus the applicable margin or (ii) the higher of (x) JPMorgan’s prime rate, (y) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% and (z) one-month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.0%, plus in each case the applicable margin for all other loans. The applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranges from 225 to 300 basis points, and the applicable margin for all other loans ranges from 125 to 200 basis points, depending upon our consolidated total leverage ratio as defined in the 2011 Credit Facility. Unused commitment fees on the facility equal 0.50%.
The 2011 Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants, which, among other things, limit our annual capital expenditures, restrict our ability to repurchase shares and require us to maintain certain financial ratios. The financial ratios require that:
• | our ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to total capitalization be no greater than 45%; |
• | our senior secured leverage ratio of senior secured funded debt to trailing four quarters of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (as calculated pursuant to the terms of the 2011 Credit Facility, “EBITDA”) be no greater than 2.00 to 1.00; |
• | we maintain a collateral coverage ratio, the ratio of the aggregate book value of the collateral to the amount of the total commitments, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of at least 2:00 to 1:00; |
• | we maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio of trailing four quarters EBITDA to interest expense of at least 3.00 to 1.00; and |
• | we limit our capital expenditures and investments in foreign subsidiaries to $250.0 million per fiscal year, if the consolidated total leverage ratio exceeds 3.00 to 1.00. |
In addition, the 2011 Credit Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including, without limitation, restrictions on (i) liens; (ii) debt, guarantees and other contingent obligations; (iii) mergers and consolidations; (iv) sales, transfers and other dispositions of property or assets; (v) loans, acquisitions, joint ventures and other investments (with acquisitions permitted so long as, after giving pro forma effect thereto, no default or event of default exists under the 2011 Credit Facility, the pro forma consolidated total leverage ratio does not exceed 4.00 to 1.00, we are in compliance with other financial covenants and we have at least $25.0 million of availability under the 2011 Credit Facility); (vi) dividends and other distributions to, and redemptions and repurchases from, equity holders; (vii) making investments, loans or advances; (viii) selling properties; (ix) prepaying, redeeming or repurchasing subordinated (contractually or structurally) debt; (x) engaging in transactions with affiliates; (xi) entering into hedging arrangements; (xii) entering into sale and leaseback transactions; (xiii) granting negative pledges other than to the lenders; (xiv) changes in the nature of business; (xv) amending organizational documents; and (xvi) changes in accounting policies or reporting practices; in each of the foregoing cases, with certain exceptions.
We were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2014. We may prepay the 2011 Credit Facility in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, subject to certain reimbursements to the lenders for breakage and redeployment costs. As of March 31, 2014, we had borrowings of $85.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, $51.1 million of letters of credit outstanding with borrowing capacity of $170.0 million available considering covenant constraints under our 2011 Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rates on the outstanding borrowings under the 2011 Credit Facility were 2.88% and 2.68% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, respectively.
Letter of Credit Facility
On November 7, 2013, we entered into an uncommitted, unsecured $15.0 million letter of credit facility to be used solely for the issuances of performance letters of credit. As of March 31, 2014, $2.0 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the facility.

Total | $ | (69 | ) | $ | (1,223 | ) |
NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES
We are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income taxes in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rates on continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were 39.3% and 75.3%, respectively. Our effective tax rate varies due to the mix of pre-tax profit between the U.S. and international taxing jurisdictions with varying statutory rates, the impact of permanent differences, and discrete tax adjustments, such as tax expense or benefit recognized for uncertain tax positions. The variance between our effective rate and the U.S. statutory rate reflects international profits and losses subject to varying statutory rates, the impact of permanent items, mainly non-deductible expenses such as fines and penalties, and expenses subject to statutorily imposed limitations such as meals and entertainment expenses, plus the impact of state income taxes.
As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $0.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, net of federal tax benefit, which, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. We recognized tax expense of less than $0.1 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 related to these items. We have substantially concluded all U.S. federal and state tax matters through the year ended December 31, 2009.
We record interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. We have accrued a liability of $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the payment of interest and penalties as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. We believe that it is reasonably possible that $0.5 million of our currently remaining unrecognized tax positions, each of which is individually insignificant, may be recognized in the next twelve months as a result of a lapse of statute of limitations and settlement of ongoing audits. No release of our deferred tax asset valuation allowance was made during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.
NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
Various suits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business are pending against us. We conduct business throughout the continental United States and may be subject to jury verdicts or arbitrations that result in outcomes in favor of the plaintiffs. We are also exposed to various claims abroad. We continually assess our contingent liabilities, including potential litigation liabilities, as well as the adequacy of our accruals and our need for the disclosure of these items, if any. We establish a provision for a contingent liability when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount is reasonably approximated. We have $0.7 million of other liabilities related to litigation that is deemed probable and reasonably estimated as of March 31, 2014. We do not believe that the disposition of any of these matters will result in an additional loss materially in excess of amounts that have been recorded.
During the second and third quarter of 2013, three lawsuits with similar allegations of violations of California's wage and hour laws were filed in California. The lawsuits allege failure to pay overtime, failure to pay minimum wages, improper payroll deductions, failure to pay final wages in a timely manner, and violations of the California meal and break period laws, among other claims. We intend to vigorously investigate and defend these actions; however, because these cases are in the early stages, we cannot predict the outcome of these lawsuits at this time and, accordingly, cannot estimate any possible loss or range of loss.
14
Self-Insurance Reserves
We maintain reserves for workers’ compensation and vehicle liability on our balance sheet based on our judgment and estimates using an actuarial method based on claims incurred. We estimate general liability claims on a case-by-case basis. We maintain insurance policies for workers’ compensation, vehicle liability and general liability claims. These insurance policies carry self-insured retention limits or deductibles on a per occurrence basis. The retention limits or deductibles are accounted for in our accrual process for all workers’ compensation, vehicular liability and general liability claims. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we have recorded $62.1 million of self-insurance reserves related to workers’ compensation, vehicular liabilities and general liability claims. Partially offsetting these liabilities, we had $19.2 million and $18.5 million of insurance receivables as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. We believe that the liabilities we have recorded are appropriate based on the known facts and circumstances and do not expect further losses materially in excess of the amounts already accrued for existing claims.
Environmental Remediation Liabilities
For environmental reserve matters, including remediation efforts for current locations and those relating to previously disposed properties, we record liabilities when our remediation efforts are probable and the costs to conduct such remediation efforts can be reasonably estimated. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we have recorded $6.1 million and $6.2 million, respectively, for our environmental remediation liabilities. We believe that the liabilities we have recorded are appropriate based on the known facts and circumstances and do not expect further losses materially in excess of the amounts already accrued.
NOTE 11. LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share is determined by dividing net loss attributable to Key by the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is based on the increased number of shares that would be outstanding assuming conversion of potentially dilutive outstanding securities using the treasury stock and “as if converted” methods.
The components of our loss per share are as follows:

Basic and diluted loss per share attributable to Key | $ | (0.08 | ) | $ | — |
Stock options, warrants and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) are included in the computation of diluted loss per share using the treasury stock method. Restricted stock awards are legally considered issued and outstanding when granted and are included in basic weighted average shares outstanding. The diluted loss per share calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 exclude the potential exercise of 1.4 million and 1.8 million stock options, respectively, and 0.3 million and 0.4 million SARs, respectively, due to the loss attributable to Key. No events occurred after March 31, 2014 that would materially affect the number of weighted average shares outstanding.
NOTE 12. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
We recognized employee share-based compensation expense of $3.1 million and $6.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and the related income tax benefit recognized was $1.2 million and $2.2 million for the same periods. We did not capitalize any share-based compensation during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.
The unrecognized compensation cost related to our unvested restricted stock as of March 31, 2014 is estimated to be $16.1 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.6 years. We do not have unrecognized cost related to our unvested stock options as of March 31, 2014. No phantom stock was outstanding as of March 31, 2014.
15
On January 30, 2014, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors adopted the 2014 Performance Unit Plan (the “2014 PU Plan”) and granted performance units pursuant to the Performance Award Agreement (“2012 PU Award Agreement”) under the Key Energy Services, Inc. 2012 Equity and Cash Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). We believe that the 2014 PU Plan and 2012 PU Award Agreement will enable us to obtain and retain employees who will contribute to our long term success by aligning the interests of our executives with the interests of our stockholders by providing compensation that is linked directly to increases in share value.
In January 2014, we issued 0.5 million performance units to our executive officers under the 2012 Plan with such material terms as set forth in the 2012 PU Award Agreement. In February 2014, we issued 0.1 million performance units to certain other employees under the 2014 PU Plan. The performance units are measured based on two performance periods from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014 and from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015. One half of the performance units are measured based on the first performance period, and the other half are measured based on the second performance period. The number of performance units that may be earned by a participant is determined at the end of each performance period based on the relative placement of Key’s total stockholder return for that period within the peer group, as follows:
Company Placement for the Performance Period | Percentile Ranking in Peer Group | Performance Units Earned as a Percentage of Target | ||||
First | 100 | % | 200 | % | ||
Second | 91 | % | 180 | % | ||
Third | 82 | % | 160 | % | ||
Fourth | 73 | % | 140 | % | ||
Fifth | 64 | % | 120 | % | ||
Sixth | 55 | % | 100 | % | ||
Seventh | 45 | % | 75 | % | ||
Eighth | 36 | % | 50 | % | ||
Ninth | 27 | % | 25 | % | ||
Tenth | 18 | % | 0 | % | ||
Eleventh | 9 | % | 0 | % | ||
Twelfth | 0 | % | 0 | % |
If any performance units vest for a given performance period, the award holder will be paid a cash amount equal to the vested percentage of the performance units multiplied by the closing stock price of our common stock on the last trading day of the performance period. We account for the performance units as a liability-type award as they are settled in cash. As of March 31, 2014, the fair value of outstanding performance units was $8.2 million, and is being accreted to compensation expense over the vesting terms of the awards. As of March 31, 2014, the unrecognized compensation cost related to our unvested performance units is estimated to be $5.5 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.
NOTE 13. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
Board of Director Relationships
A member of our board of directors is the Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Chief Administrative Officer of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (“Anadarko”), which is one of our customers. Sales to Anadarko were approximately $8.8 million and $6.6 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Receivables outstanding from Anadarko were approximately $3.4 million and $4.9 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Transactions with Anadarko for our services are made on terms consistent with other customers.

NOTE 15. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our operating segments are U.S. and International. We also have a “Functional Support” segment associated with managing each of our reportable operating segments. Our domestic rig services, fluid management services, fishing and rental services, and coiled tubing services are aggregated within our U.S. reportable segment. Our international rig services business and our Canadian technology development group are aggregated within our International reportable segment. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on revenue and income measures. All inter-segment sales pricing is based on current market conditions. The following is a description of the segments:
U.S. Segment
Rig-Based Services
Our rig-based services include the completion of newly drilled wells, workover and recompletion of existing oil and natural gas wells, well maintenance, and the plugging and abandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives. We also provide specialty drilling services to oil and natural gas producers with certain of our larger rigs that are capable of providing conventional and horizontal drilling services. Our rigs encompass various sizes and capabilities, allowing us to service all types of wells with depths up to 20,000 feet. Many of our rigs are outfitted with our proprietary KeyView® technology, which captures and reports well site operating data and provides safety control systems. We believe that this technology allows our customers and our crews to better monitor well site operations, improves efficiency and safety, and adds value to the services that we offer.
The completion and recompletion services provided by our rigs prepare wells for production, whether newly drilled, or recently extended through a workover operation. The completion process may involve selectively perforating the well casing to access production zones, stimulating and testing these zones, and installing tubular and downhole equipment. We typically provide a well service rig and may also provide other equipment to assist in the completion process. Completion services vary by well and our work may take a few days to several weeks to perform, depending on the nature of the completion.
The workover services that we provide are designed to enhance the production of existing wells and generally are more complex and time consuming than normal maintenance services. Workover services can include deepening or extending wellbores into new formations by drilling horizontal or lateral wellbores, sealing off depleted production zones and accessing previously bypassed production zones, converting former production wells into injection wells for enhanced recovery operations and conducting major subsurface repairs due to equipment failures. Workover services may last from a few days to several weeks, depending on the complexity of the workover.
17
Maintenance services provided with our rig fleet are generally required throughout the life cycle of an oil or natural gas well. Examples of these maintenance services include routine mechanical repairs to the pumps, tubing and other equipment, removing debris and formation material from wellbores, and pulling rods and other downhole equipment from wellbores to identify and resolve production problems. Maintenance services are generally less complicated than completion and workover related services and require less time to perform.
Our rig fleet is also used in the process of permanently shutting-in oil or natural gas wells that are at the end of their productive lives. These plugging and abandonment services generally require auxiliary equipment in addition to a well servicing rig. The demand for plugging and abandonment services is not significantly impacted by the demand for oil and natural gas because well operators are required by state regulations to plug wells that are no longer productive.
Fluid Management Services
We provide transportation and well-site storage services for various fluids utilized in connection with drilling, completions, workover and maintenance activities. We also provide disposal services for fluids produced subsequent to well completion. These fluids are removed from the well site and transported for disposal in saltwater disposal wells owned by us or a third party. In addition, we operate a fleet of hot oilers capable of pumping heated fluids used to clear soluble restrictions in a wellbore. Demand and pricing for these services generally correspond to demand for our well service rigs.
Coiled Tubing Services
Coiled tubing services involve the use of a continuous metal pipe spooled onto a large reel which is then deployed into oil and natural gas wells to perform various applications, such as wellbore clean-outs, nitrogen jet lifts, through-tubing fishing, and formation stimulations utilizing acid and chemical treatments. Coiled tubing is also used for a number of horizontal well applications such as milling temporary isolation plugs that separate frac zones, and various other pre- and post-hydraulic fracturing well preparation services.
Fishing and Rental Services
We offer a full line of services and rental equipment designed for use in providing both onshore and offshore drilling and workover services. Fishing services involve recovering lost or stuck equipment in the wellbore utilizing a broad array of “fishing tools.” Our rental tool inventory consists of drill pipe, tubulars, handling tools (including our patented Hydra-Walk® pipe-handling units and services), pressure-control equipment, pumps, power swivels, reversing units, foam air units, frac stack equipment used to support hydraulic fracturing operations and the associated flowback of frac fluids, proppants, oil and natural gas. We also provide well testing services.
Demand for our fishing and rental services is closely related to capital spending by oil and natural gas producers, which is generally a function of oil and natural gas prices.
International Segment
Our International segment includes operations in Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, the Middle East and Russia. In addition, we have a technology development and control systems business based in Canada. Also, we operated in Argentina prior to the sale of that business in the third quarter of 2012. We are reporting the results of our former Argentina business as discontinued operations for all periods presented. We provide rig-based services such as the maintenance, workover, recompletion of existing oil wells, completion of newly-drilled wells and plugging and abandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives in each of our international markets.
In addition, in Mexico we provide drilling, coiled tubing, wireline, project management and consulting services. Our work in Mexico also requires us to provide third party services that vary in scope by project.
In the Middle East, we operate in the Kingdom of Bahrain and Oman. On August 5, 2013, we agreed to the dissolution of AlMansoori Key Energy Services, LLC, a joint venture formed under the laws of Abu Dhabi, UAE, and the acquisition of the underlying business for $5.1 million. See “Note 3. Acquisition of Noncontrolling Interests” for further discussion.
Our Russian operations provide drilling, workover, and reservoir engineering services. On April 9, 2013, we completed the acquisition of the 50% noncontrolling interest in Geostream, a limited liability company incorporated in the Russian Federation, for $14.6 million. We now own 100% of Geostream. See “Note 3. Acquisition of Noncontrolling Interests” for further discussion.
Our technology development and control systems business based in Canada is focused on the development of hardware and software related to oilfield service equipment controls, data acquisition and digital information flow.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
OVERVIEW
Key Energy Services, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Key,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “its,” and “our”) provide a full range of well services to major oil companies, foreign national oil companies and independent oil and natural gas production companies. Our services include rig-based and coiled tubing-based well maintenance and workover services, well completion and recompletion services, fluid management services, fishing and rental services, and other ancillary oilfield services. Additionally, certain rigs are capable of specialty drilling applications. We operate in most major oil and natural gas producing regions of the continental United States and have operations in Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, the Middle East and Russia. In addition, we have a technology development and control systems business based in Canada.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, included elsewhere herein, and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2013 Form 10-K.
We operate in two business segments; U.S. and International. We also have a “Functional Support” segment associated with managing our U.S. and International business segments. See “Note 15. Segment Information” in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of Part I of this report for a summary of our business segments.
PERFORMANCE MEASURES
The Baker Hughes U.S. rig count data, which is publicly available on a weekly basis, is often used as an indicator of overall Exploration and Production (“E&P”) company spending and broader oilfield activity. In assessing overall activity in the U.S. onshore oilfield service industry in which we operate, we believe that the Baker Hughes U.S. land drilling rig count is the best available barometer of E&P companies' capital spending and resulting activity levels. Historically, our activity levels have been highly correlated to U.S. onshore capital spending by our E&P company customers as a group.

Internally, we measure activity levels for our well servicing operations primarily through our rig and trucking hours. Generally, as capital spending by E&P companies increases, demand for our services also rises, resulting in increased rig and trucking services and more hours worked. Conversely, when activity levels decline due to lower spending by E&P companies, we generally provide fewer rig and trucking services, which results in lower hours worked.
24
In the U.S., our rig activity occurs primarily on weekdays during daylight hours. Accordingly, we track U.S. rig activity on a “per U.S. working day” basis. Key's U.S. working days per quarter, which exclude national holidays, are indicated in the table below. Our international rig activity and domestic trucking activity tend to occur on a 24/7 basis. Accordingly, we track our international rig activity and our domestic trucking activity on a “per calendar day” basis. The following table presents our quarterly rig and trucking hours from 2013 through the first quarter of 2014:

MARKET CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK
Market Conditions — Quarter Ended March 31, 2014
Our core businesses depend on our customers' willingness to make expenditures to produce, develop and explore for oil and natural gas. Industry conditions are influenced by numerous factors, such as the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, domestic and worldwide economic conditions, and political instability in oil producing countries.
First quarter 2014 U.S. revenues were comparable to the fourth quarter of 2013. First quarter 2014 results were impacted primarily by seasonal effects and multiple severe weather events across all lines of businesses. Operating income margins were impacted by seasonal factors and costs associated with rig mobilization, primarily from Mexico to the U.S.
Internationally, revenues were down 15.7% compared to fourth quarter 2013. Our International results were impacted by the continued activity slowdown in the North Region of Mexico, our principal operating region. Operating income margins were impacted by lower activity and severance.
Market Outlook
We continue to position Key to benefit from improving activity in many of our core markets through balanced service offerings across the wells’ life, giving Key exposure to unconventional horizontal well and legacy vertical well activities. We believe that the high value service we provide across the well life cycle yields many opportunities for Key.
We expect our completions-driven businesses will see a meaningful improvement and benefit from the unconventional horizontal completion activity in many of our principal operating regions for the remainder of 2014. We have seen an increase in large-scale production-oriented tenders which, after evaluation by large operators, should result in the execution of new large-scale projects. We believe underlying demand for our production-driven services will remain strong and should improve as we move through the year as operators execute on large-scale projects.
Internationally, we are taking necessary actions to insulate ourselves from further losses and allow us to operate profitably as we await the benefits of Mexican energy reform. We successfully relocated twelve rigs from Mexico to the U.S. during the first quarter and will likely redeploy a similar number in order to take advantage of actionable opportunities in the U.S. and reduce our fixed cost structure internationally. We expect activity in Mexico, especially in the North Region where we primarily operate, to remain limited as Petróleos Mexicanos (“Pemex”) waits for a response from Mexico's National Hydrocarbons Commission to determine which assets Pemex will operate post “Round Zero”.

Consolidated Results of Operations — Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 and 2013
Revenues
Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 decreased $72.3 million, or 16.9%, to $356.1 million from $428.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, mostly due to lower demand for our rig-based services in the U.S. and reduced customer activity in Mexico. See “Segment Operating Results — Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 and 2013” below for a more detailed discussion of the change in our revenues.
Direct Operating Expenses
Our direct operating expenses decreased $40.9 million, to $258.3 million (72.5% of revenues), for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $299.2 million (69.8% of revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease was a direct result of lower activity in Rig-Based Services primarily in California, the Permian Basin and Mexico.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $3.1 million, or 5.7%, to $51.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $54.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease is primarily attributable to decreases in capital expenditures.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased $10.4 million, to $52.9 million (14.8% of revenues), for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $63.2 million (14.8% of revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease is primarily due to cost cutting initiatives in all of our businesses, with the Fluid Management Services area leading the way.
Interest Expense, Net of Amounts Capitalized
Interest expense decreased $0.3 million, or 1.8%, to $13.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $13.8 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease is primarily related to reduced borrowings under the revolving credit facility for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.
Other Income, Net
During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we recognized other income, net, of $0.1 million, compared to other income, net, of $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Our foreign exchange loss relates to U.S. dollar-denominated transactions in our foreign businesses and fluctuations in exchange rates between local currencies and the U.S. dollar.

Other, net | (1,417 | ) | (287 | ) | |||
Total | $ | (69 | ) | $ | (1,223 | ) |
Income Tax Benefit
We recorded income tax benefit of $7.7 million on pre-tax loss of $19.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to income tax benefit of $0.6 million on pre-tax loss of $0.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013. Our effective tax rate was 39.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to 75.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Our effective tax rates for such periods differ from the U.S. statutory rate of 35% due to a number of factors, including the mix of profit and loss between domestic and international taxing jurisdictions and the impact of permanent items that affect book income but do not affect taxable income.
Noncontrolling Interests
We have no noncontrolling interest holders in 2014. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, we allocated $0.1 million associated with the income incurred by our joint ventures to the noncontrolling interests holders of these ventures.

U.S.
Revenues for our U.S. segment decreased $22.0 million, or 6.4%, to $324.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $346.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease for this segment was due to reduced customer spending, primarily in California and the Permian Basin.
Operating expenses for our U.S. segment were $288.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, which represented a decrease of $19.4 million, or 6.3%, compared to $307.8 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease was directly attributable to lower activity and improved cost control initiatives.
International
Revenues for our International segment decreased $50.3 million, or 61.0%, to $32.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $82.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower customer activity in Mexico.
Operating expenses for our International segment decreased $27.9 million, or 39.6%, to $42.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $70.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. These expenses decreased as a direct result of lower customer activity in Mexico.
27
Functional Support
Operating expenses for Functional Support, which represent expenses associated with managing our U.S. and International reporting segments, decreased $7.0 million, or 18.4%, to $31.3 million (8.8% of consolidated revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $38.3 million (8.9% of consolidated revenues) for the same period in 2013.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Current Financial Condition and Liquidity
As of March 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $40.9 million. Our adjusted working capital (working capital excluding the current portion of capital lease obligations) was $283.1 million as of March 31, 2014, compared to $277.4 million as of December 31, 2013. Our adjusted working capital increased from the prior year end primarily as a result of an increase in cash and cash equivalents, inventory and decrease in accrued interest, partially offset by reduced accounts receivable. Our total outstanding debt was $763.8 million, and we have no significant debt maturities until 2016. As of March 31, 2014, we have $85.0 million in borrowings, $51.1 million in committed letters of credit outstanding with borrowing capacity of $170.0 million available considering covenant constraints under our 2011 Credit Facility (defined below).

Cash provided by operating activities was $45.7 million and $19.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Cash used in investing activities was $26.8 million and $51.4 million for three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Investing cash outflows during these periods consisted primarily of capital expenditures. Our capital expenditures through March 31, 2014 primarily relate to replacement assets for our existing fleet and equipment. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2013, as previously disclosed, we funded into escrow $14.6 million for the acquisition of the 50% noncontrolling interest in Geostream, our joint venture in Russia.
Cash used in financing activities was $6.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $25.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Overall financing cash outflows for 2014 primarily related to repayments of long-term debt. Overall financing cash inflows for 2013 primarily relate to net proceeds on the 2011 Credit Facility.
Sources of Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our sources of liquidity include our current cash and cash equivalents, availability under our 2011 Credit Facility and internally generated cash flows from operations.
28
Debt Service
We do not have any maturities of debt until 2016. Interest on our 2011 Credit Facility is due each quarter. Interest to be paid for the remainder of 2014 is approximately $23.0 million related to our 2021 Notes (defined below). We expect to fund interest payments from cash generated by operations. At March 31, 2014, our annual debt maturities for our 2021 Notes and borrowings under our 2011 Credit Facility were as follows:
Year | Principal Payments | ||

At March 31, 2014, we were in compliance with all the covenants under the 2011 Credit Facility and the indentures governing the 2021 Notes.
8.375% Senior Notes due 2014
On February 25, 2014, we redeemed the $3.6 million aggregate principal amount and paid $0.1 million accrued interest of 8.375% Senior Notes that were due on March 27, 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) pursuant to the indenture dated as of November 29, 2007 (as supplemented, the “Indenture”). The 2014 Notes were general unsecured senior obligations were subordinate to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness. The 2014 Notes were jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the 2014 Notes was payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year.
6.75% Senior Notes due 2021
We issued $475.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Initial 2021 Notes”) on March 4, 2011 and issued an additional $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes (the “Additional 2021 Notes” and, together with the Initial 2021 Notes, the “2021 Notes”) in a private placement on March 8, 2012 under an indenture dated March 4, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated March 4, 2011 and amended by a further supplemental indenture dated March 8, 2012 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). We used the net proceeds to repay senior secured indebtedness under our revolving bank credit facility. We capitalized $4.6 million of financing costs associated with the issuance of the 2021 Notes that will be amortized over the term of the notes.
On March 5, 2013, we completed an offer to exchange the $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unregistered Additional 2021 Notes for an equal principal amount of such notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933. All of the 2021 Notes are treated as a single class under the Indenture and as of the closing of the exchange offer, bear the same CUSIP and ISIN numbers.
The 2021 Notes are general unsecured senior obligations and are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness. The 2021 Notes are or will be jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the 2021 Notes is payable on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The 2021 Notes mature on March 1, 2021.
On or after March 1, 2016, the 2021 Notes will be subject to redemption at any time and from time to time at our option, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices below (expressed as percentages of the principal amount redeemed), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on March 1 of the years indicated below:
Year | Percentage | |
2016 | 103.375 | % |
2017 | 102.250 | % |
2018 | 101.125 | % |
2019 and thereafter | 100.000 | % |
29
At any time and from time to time prior to March 1, 2016, we may, at our option, redeem all or a portion of the 2021 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a premium with respect to the 2021 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The premium is the excess of (i) the present value of the redemption price of 103.375 of the principal amount, plus all remaining scheduled interest payments due through March 1, 2016 discounted at the treasury rate plus 0.50% over (ii) the principal amount of the note. If we experience a change of control, subject to certain exceptions, we must give holders of the 2021 Notes the opportunity to sell to us their 2021 Notes, in whole or in part, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.
We are subject to certain negative covenants under the Indenture. The Indenture limits our ability to, among other things:
• | incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred equity interests; |
• | pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem equity interests; |
• | make loans and investments; |
• | enter into sale and leaseback transactions; |
• | sell, transfer or otherwise convey assets; |
• | create liens; |
• | enter into transactions with affiliates; |
• | enter into agreements restricting subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; |
• | designate future subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; and |
• | consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of the applicable entities’ assets. |
These covenants are subject to certain exceptions and qualifications, and contain cross-default provisions relating to the covenants of our 2011 Credit Facility discussed below. Substantially all of the covenants will terminate before the 2021 Notes mature if one of two specified ratings agencies assigns the 2021 Notes an investment grade rating in the future and no events of default exist under the Indenture. As of March 31, 2014, the 2021 Notes were rated below investment grade. Any covenants that cease to apply to us as a result of achieving an investment grade rating will not be restored, even if the investment rating assigned to the 2021 Notes later falls below investment grade. We were in compliance with these covenants at March 31, 2014.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
We are party to a $550.0 million senior secured revolving bank credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent, and Capital One, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank and DnB NOR Bank ASA, as Co-Documentation Agent (as amended, the “2011 Credit Facility”), which is an important source of liquidity for us. The 2011 Credit Facility consists of a revolving credit facility, letter of credit sub-facility and swing line facility, all of which will mature no later than March 31, 2016.
The maximum amount that we may borrow under the facility may be subject to limitation due to the operation of the covenants contained in the facility. The 2011 Credit Facility allows us to request increases in the total commitments under the facility by up to $100.0 million in the aggregate in part or in full anytime during the term of the 2011 Credit Facility, with any such increases being subject to compliance with the restrictive covenants in the 2011 Credit Facility and in the Indenture governing our 2021 Senior Notes, as well as lender approval.
We capitalized $4.9 million of financing costs in connection with the execution of the 2011 Credit Facility and an additional $1.4 million related to a subsequent amendment that will be amortized over the term of the debt.
The interest rate per annum applicable to the 2011 Credit Facility is, at our option, (i) adjusted LIBOR plus the applicable margin or (ii) the higher of (x) JPMorgan’s prime rate, (y) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% and (z) one-month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.0%, plus in each case the applicable margin for all other loans. The applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranges from 225 to 300 basis points, and the applicable margin for all other loans ranges from 125 to 200 basis points, depending upon our consolidated total leverage ratio as defined in the 2011 Credit Facility. Unused commitment fees on the facility equal 0.50%.
The 2011 Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants, which, among other things, limit our annual capital expenditures, restrict our ability to repurchase shares and require us to maintain certain financial ratios. The financial ratios require that:
• | our ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to total capitalization be no greater than 45%; |
• | our senior secured leverage ratio of senior secured funded debt to trailing four quarters of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (as calculated pursuant to the terms of the 2011 Credit Facility, “EBITDA”) be no greater than 2.00 to 1.00; |
30
• | we maintain a collateral coverage ratio, the ratio of the aggregate book value of the collateral to the amount of the total commitments, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of at least 2:00 to 1:00; |
• | we maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio of trailing four quarters EBITDA to interest expense of at least 3.00 to 1.00; and |
• | we limit our capital expenditures and investments in foreign subsidiaries to $250.0 million per fiscal year, if the consolidated total leverage ratio exceeds 3.00 to 1.00. |
In addition, the 2011 Credit Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including, without limitation, restrictions on (i) liens; (ii) debt, guarantees and other contingent obligations; (iii) mergers and consolidations; (iv) sales, transfers and other dispositions of property or assets; (v) loans, acquisitions, joint ventures and other investments (with acquisitions permitted so long as, after giving pro forma effect thereto, no default or event of default exists under the 2011 Credit Facility, the pro forma consolidated total leverage ratio does not exceed 4.00 to 1.00, we are in compliance with other financial covenants and we have at least $25.0 million of availability under the 2011 Credit Facility); (vi) dividends and other distributions to, and redemptions and repurchases from, equity holders; (vii) making investments, loans or advances; (viii) selling properties; (ix) prepaying, redeeming or repurchasing subordinated (contractually or structurally) debt; (x) engaging in transactions with affiliates; (xi) entering into hedging arrangements; (xii) entering into sale and leaseback transactions; (xiii) granting negative pledges other than to the lenders; (xiv) changes in the nature of business; (xv) amending organizational documents; and (xvi) changes in accounting policies or reporting practices; in each of the foregoing cases, with certain exceptions. We were in compliance with these covenants at March 31, 2014. We may prepay the 2011 Credit Facility in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, subject to certain reimbursements to the lenders for breakage and redeployment costs. As of March 31, 2014, we had borrowings of $85.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, $51.1 million of letters of credit outstanding with borrowing capacity of $170.0 million available considering covenant constraints under our 2011 Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rates on the outstanding borrowings under the 2011 Credit Facility were 2.88% and 2.68% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013.
Letter of Credit Facility
On November 7, 2013, we entered into an uncommitted, unsecured $15.0 million letter of credit facility to be used solely for the issuances of performance letters of credit. As of March 31, 2014, $2.0 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the facility.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At March 31, 2014 we did not, and we currently do not, have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Liquidity Outlook and Future Capital Requirements
As of March 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $40.9 million, borrowing capacity of $170.0 million available considering covenant constraints under the 2011 Credit Facility, and no significant debt maturities until 2016. We believe that our internally generated cash flows from operations and current reserves of cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to finance the majority of our cash requirements for operations, budgeted capital expenditures, and debt service for the next twelve months. Also, as we have historically done, we may, from time to time, access available funds under our 2011 Credit Facility to supplement our liquidity to meet cash requirements for day-to-day operations and times of peak needs throughout the year. Our planned capital expenditures, as well as any acquisitions we choose to pursue, could be financed through a combination of cash on hand, borrowings under our 2011 Credit Facility and, in the case of acquisitions, equity.
Capital Expenditures
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, our capital expenditures totaled $28.5 million, primarily related to the ongoing replacement to our rig service fleet, coiled tubing units, fluid transportation equipment and rental equipment. Our capital expenditure plan for 2014 of $198.0 million is primarily related to equipment replacement needs, including ongoing replacement to our rig services fleet. Our capital expenditure program for 2014 is subject to market conditions, including activity levels, commodity prices, industry capacity and specific customer needs. Our focus for 2014 has been and continues to be the maximization of our current equipment fleet, but we may choose to increase our capital expenditures in 2014 to increase market share or expand our presence into a new market. We may also incur capital expenditures for strategic investments and acquisitions. We currently anticipate funding our 2014 capital expenditures through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flow, and borrowings under our 2011 Credit Facility. Should our operating cash flows or activity levels prove to be insufficient to fund our currently planned capital spending levels, management expects it will adjust our capital spending plans accordingly. We may also incur capital expenditures for strategic investments and acquisitions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes in our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk from those disclosed in our 2013 Form 10-K. More detailed information concerning market risk can be found in “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk“ in our 2013 Form 10-K.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2014 that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
We are subject to various suits and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the disposition of any of our ordinary course litigation will result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. For additional information on legal proceedings, see “Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies” in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of Part I of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Government Investigation
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has advised us that it is investigating possible violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act involving business activities of Key’s operations in Russia. We take any such allegations very seriously and are conducting an investigation into the allegations. We are fully cooperating with and sharing the results of our investigation with the Commission. While the outcome of our investigation is currently not determinable, we do not expect that it will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
Reference is made to Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of the 2013 Form 10-K for information concerning risk factors. We are updating these risk factors to add the first risk factor set forth below and to amend the second risk factor set forth below. The following risk factors should be read in conjunction with the other risk factors set forth in the 2013 Form 10-K. You should carefully consider such risk factors, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the 2013 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Compliance with new regulations regarding the use of “conflict minerals” could limit the supply and increase the cost of certain metals used in manufacturing our products.
Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) requires the SEC to promulgate new disclosure requirements for manufacturers of products containing certain minerals which are mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries. These “conflict minerals” are commonly found in metals used in the manufacture of semiconductors. Manufacturers are also required to disclose their efforts to prevent the sourcing of such minerals and metals produced from them. The new disclosure rules will take effect in May 2014. The implementation of these new regulations may limit the sourcing and availability of some of the metals used in the manufacture of our products. The regulations may also reduce the number of suppliers who provide conflict-free metals, and may affect our ability to obtain products in sufficient quantities or at competitive prices. Finally, some of our customers may elect to disqualify us as a supplier if we are unable to verify that the metals used in our products are free of conflict minerals.
We are subject to the economic, political and social instability risks of doing business in certain foreign countries.
We currently have operations based in Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, the Middle East and Russia and we own a technology development and control systems business based in Canada. In the future, we may expand our operations into other foreign countries. As a result, we are exposed to risks of international operations, including:
• | increased governmental ownership and regulation of the economy in the markets in which we operate; |
• | inflation and adverse economic conditions stemming from governmental attempts to reduce inflation, such as imposition of higher interest rates and wage and price controls; |
• | economic and financial instability of national oil companies; |
• | increased trade barriers, such as higher tariffs and taxes on imports of commodity products; |
• | exposure to foreign currency exchange rates; |
• | exchange controls or other currency restrictions; |
• | war, civil unrest or significant political instability; |
• | restrictions on repatriation of income or capital; |
• | expropriation, confiscatory taxation, nationalization or other government actions with respect to our assets located in the markets where we operate; |
• | governmental policies limiting investments by and returns to foreign investors; |
• | labor unrest and strikes; |
• | deprivation of contract rights; and |
• | restrictive governmental regulation and bureaucratic delays. |

The occurrence of one or more of these risks may:
• | negatively impact our results of operations; |
• | restrict the movement of funds and equipment to and from affected countries; and |
• | inhibit our ability to collect receivables. |
Our wholly owned subsidiary, Geostream, provides drilling, workover and reservoir engineering services in Russia. Russia has in recent months and is presently increasing its political influence in Ukraine, as evidenced by recently annexing the Crimean peninsula and amassing troops on the border with Ukraine, threatening an invasion of Ukraine. Continued political instability, deteriorating macroeconomic conditions and actual or threatened military action in the region could have a material adverse effect on our subsidiary’s operations in the region and on the result of operations of our International segment.
