NEWPARK RESOURCES, INC.

Note 1 — Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Newpark Resources, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, which we refer to as “we,” “our” or “us,” have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and do not include all information and footnotes required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our fiscal year end is December 31, our second quarter represents the three month period ended June 30 and our first half represents the six month period ending June 30. The results of operations for the second quarter and first half of 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. Unless otherwise stated, all currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2011, the results of our operations for the second quarter and first half of 2011 and 2010, and our cash flows for the first half of 2011 and 2010. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Our balance sheet at December 31, 2010 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. For further information, see Note 1 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

New Accounting Standards

In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB“) issued additional guidance on multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The guidance provides amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. It replaces the term “fair value” in the revenue allocation guidance with “selling price” to clarify that the allocation of revenue is based on entity-specific assumptions rather than assumptions of a marketplace participant, and they establish a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The amendments eliminate the residual method of allocation and require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, and they significantly expand the required disclosures related to multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The amendments were effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2010. The impact of this additional guidance has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued updated accounting guidance related to the calculation of the carrying amount of a reporting unit when performing the first step of a goodwill impairment test. Specifically, this update requires an entity to use an equity premise when performing the first step of a goodwill impairment test and if a reporting unit has a zero or negative carrying amount, the entity must assess and consider qualitative factors and whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The new accounting guidance is effective for impairment tests performed during entities’ fiscal years (and interim periods within those years) that begin after December 15, 2010. The impact of this updated guidance has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued updated accounting guidance to clarify that pro forma disclosures should be presented as if a business combination occurred at the beginning of the prior annual period for purposes of preparing both the current reporting period and the prior reporting period pro forma financial information. These disclosures should be accompanied by a narrative description about the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. The new accounting guidance is effective for business combinations consummated in periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and should be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. The impact of this guidance has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance, which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The new guidance removes the presentation options and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company’s current practice for presenting comprehensive income is consistent with the updated guidance.

Note 2 — Earnings per Share

The following table presents the reconciliation of the numerator and denominator for calculating earnings per share:

		Second Quarter								First Half
(In thousands, except per share data)		2011				2010				2011				2010
Basic EPS:
Net income		$	19,280			$	10,840			$	35,134			$	18,622
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding			89,791				88,818				89,707				88,737
Basic income per common share		$	0.21			$	0.12			$	0.39			$	0.21
Diluted EPS:
Net income		$	19,280			$	10,840			$	35,134			$	18,622
Assumed conversion of Senior Notes			1,241				—				2,438				—
Adjusted net income		$	20,521			$	10,840			$	37,572			$	18,622
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding-basic			89,791				88,818				89,707				88,737
Add: Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock awards			1,061				574				739				342
Dilutive effect of Senior Notes			15,682				—				15,682				—
Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding			106,534				89,392				106,128				89,079
Diluted income per common share		$	0.19			$	0.12			$	0.35			$	0.21
Stock options and warrants excluded from calculation of diluted earnings per share because anti-dilutive for the period			2,536				3,952				3,731				4,641

Weighted average dilutive stock options and restricted stock outstanding totaled approximately 4.2 million and 3.2 million shares, for the second quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 3.2 million and 2.6 million shares for the first half of 2011 and 2010, respectively. The resulting net effect of stock options and restricted stock were used in calculating diluted earnings per share for the period.

In June 2000, we completed the sale of 120,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), and a warrant (the “Series B Warrant”) to purchase up to 1,900,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $10.075 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. As of June 30, 2011, the Series B Warrant, as adjusted for anti-dilution provisions, remains outstanding and provides for the right to purchase up to approximately 2.1 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $8.97, and expires in February 2012.

Note 3 — Stock-Based Compensation

During the second quarter of 2011, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved equity-based compensation to executive officers and other key employees. These awards included a grant of 484,586 time-vesting shares of stock, which vest equally over a three-year period. The fair value on the date of grant for these awards was $9.13 per share. Non-employee directors received shares of restricted stock totaling 68,455 shares, which will vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Additionally, 725,643 stock options were granted to executive officers and other key employees at an exercise price of $9.13, which provide for equal vesting over a three-year period with a term of ten years. The estimated fair value of the stock options on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model was $5.00. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model included a risk free interest rate of 1.59%, expected life of 5.22 years and expected volatility of 63.1%.

Note 4 — Acquisition

In April 2011, we completed the acquisition of the drilling fluids and engineering services business from Rheochem PLC, a publicly-traded Australian-based oil and gas company. The acquired business provides drilling fluids and related engineering services to the oil and gas exploration and geothermal industries with operations in Australia, New Zealand and India. Total cash paid at closing was AUD$24.5 million ($25.9 million), subject to a post-closing adjustment for working capital conveyed at closing. Additional consideration may also be payable based on financial results of the acquired business over a one year earn-out period, up to a maximum total consideration of AUD$45 million (approximately $48 million at the current exchange rate).

The transaction has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the total consideration, including projected additional consideration, was recorded as goodwill and includes the value of the access to markets in Asia Pacific and an assembled workforce. While the initial purchase price allocation has been completed, the allocation of the purchase price is subject to change for a period of one year following the acquisition. The following table summarizes the amounts recognized for assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

(In thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents		$	315
Receivables			3,316
Inventories			7,166
Prepaid expenses and other current assets			773
Property, plant and equipment, net			9,465
Goodwill			13,699
Customer relationships (18 year life)			8,533
Tradename (5 year life)			620
Other assets			510
Total assets acquired		$	44,397
Accounts payable		$	717
Accrued liabilities			14,673
Deferred tax liability			2,820
Other noncurrent liabilities			271
Total liabilities assumed		$	18,481
Total cash conveyed at closing		$	25,916

The accrued liabilities balance above includes $13.0 million reflecting anticipated payments to the seller under the terms of the agreement for working capital conveyed at closing and the anticipated additional consideration pursuant to the one year earn-out.

Our operating results include $0.6 million and $1.0 million of acquisition-related costs in the second quarter and first half of 2011, respectively. Proforma results of operation for the acquired business have not been presented as the effect of this acquisition is not material to our consolidated financial statements.

Note 5 — Receivables and Inventories

Receivables — Receivables consist of the following:

		June 30,				December 31,
(In thousands)		2011				2010
Gross trade receivables		$	228,878			$	193,349
Allowance for doubtful accounts			(6,534	)			(5,839	)
Net trade receivables			222,344				187,510
Other receivables			13,135				9,289
Total receivables, net		$	235,479			$	196,799

Inventories — Our inventories include $133.1 million and $122.5 million of raw materials and components for our drilling fluids systems at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The remaining balance consists primarily of composite mat finished goods.

Note 6 — Financing Arrangements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financing arrangements include $172.5 million of unsecured convertible senior notes (“Senior Notes”) and a $150.0 million revolving credit facility, of which no borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2011. The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.0% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning April 1, 2011. Holders may convert the Senior Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the October 1, 2017 maturity date. The conversion rate is initially 90.8893 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Senior Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $11.00 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Upon conversion, the Senior Notes will be settled in shares of our common stock. We may not redeem the Senior Notes prior to their maturity date.

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables and debt. We believe the carrying values of these instruments, with the exception of our Senior Notes, approximated their fair values at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The estimated fair value of our Senior Notes is $201.8 million at June 30, 2011 and $157.0 million at December 31, 2010, based on quoted market prices at these respective dates.

Note 7 — Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of conducting our business, we become involved in litigation and other claims from private party actions, as well as judicial and administrative proceedings involving governmental authorities at the federal, state and local levels. In the opinion of management, any liability in these matters should not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Overview

We are a diversified oil and gas industry supplier with three reportable segments: Fluids Systems and Engineering, Mats and Integrated Services, and Environmental Services. We provide these products and services primarily to the oil and gas exploration (“E&P”) industry domestically in the U.S. Gulf Coast, West Texas, Oklahoma, East Texas, North Louisiana, Rocky Mountains and Northeast regions, as well as internationally in certain areas of Europe, North Africa, Brazil, Canada and following our April 2011 acquisition (as described below), in the Asia Pacific region. Further, we established a presence outside the E&P sector, particularly in Mats and Integrated Services, where we are marketing to utilities, municipalities and government sectors. Our North American operations generated 77% of total reported revenues for the first half 2011, and our consolidated revenues by segment are as follows:

		First Half
(In thousands)		2011 Revenues				%
Fluids systems and engineering		$	361,672				83	%
Mats and integrated services			50,856				12	%
Environmental services			20,945				5	%
Total revenues		$	433,473				100	%

In North America, we have continued the introduction of Evolution^TM, our high performance water-based drilling fluid system launched in 2010, which we believe provides superior performance and environmental benefits to our customers, as compared to traditional fluids systems used in the industry. After the initial introduction into the Haynesville shale last year, the system is now being used by customers in several major North American drilling basins. Revenues from wells using the Evolution system were $18 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $27 million in the first half of 2011.

In April 2011, we completed the acquisition of the drilling fluids and engineering services business from Rheochem PLC, a publicly-traded Australian-based oil and gas company. The acquired business provides drilling fluids and related engineering services with operations in Australia, New Zealand and India. Total cash paid at closing was AUD$24.0 million ($25.4 million), subject to a post-closing adjustment for working capital conveyed at closing. Additional consideration may also be payable based on financial results of the acquired business over a one-year earn-out period, up to a maximum total consideration of AUD$45 million (approximately $48 million at the current exchange rate). Following the April 2011 acquisition, this business generated $6.6 million of revenues during the second quarter of 2011.

Our operating results depend, to a large extent, on oil and gas drilling activity levels in the markets we serve, as well as the depth of drilling, which governs the revenue potential of each well. The drilling activity in turn, depends on oil and gas commodity pricing, inventory levels and demand, and more recently, regulatory actions affecting operations in the Gulf of Mexico.

Rig count data is the most widely accepted indicator of drilling activity. Average North American rig count data for the second quarter and first half of 2011, as compared to the comparable period of 2010 is as follows:

		Second Quarter								2011 vs 2010
		2011				2010				Count				%
U.S. Rig Count			1,826				1,506				320				21	%
Canadian Rig Count			187				163				24				15	%
North America			2,013				1,669				344				21	%

		First Half								2011 vs 2010
		2011				2010				Count				%
U.S. Rig Count			1,774				1,419				355				25	%
Canadian Rig Count			379				306				73				24	%
North America			2,153				1,725				428				25	%

In April 2010, the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig sank in the Gulf of Mexico after an explosion and fire, resulting in the discharge of oil from the well. Following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, the Department of Interior of the U.S. government took several actions aimed at restricting and temporarily prohibiting certain drilling activity in the Gulf of Mexico. While the Department of Interior has since announced the formal end of the drilling moratorium placed in effect in May 2010, increased permitting requirements are applicable to both shallow water and deepwater drilling activities. As a result, the near-term outlook for drilling activity in the Gulf of Mexico remains uncertain.

Revenues

Revenues increased 27% to $230.8 million in the second quarter of 2011, compared to $181.4 million in the second quarter of 2010. This $49.5 million improvement includes a $40.5 million (29%) increase in revenues in North America, largely driven by the 21% improvement in the U.S. rig count. Revenues from our international operations increased by $9.0 million (21%), attributable to revenues generated in our Asia Pacific region, following the April 2011 acquisition described above. Additional information regarding the change in revenues is provided within the operating segment results below.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues increased 23% to $178.9 million in the second quarter of 2011, as compared to $145.3 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase is primarily driven by the 27% increase in revenues. Additional information regarding the change in cost of revenues is provided within the operating segment results below.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4.8 million to $21.2 million in the second quarter of 2011 from $16.4 million for the second quarter of 2010. The increase includes a $1.8 million increase in performance-based employee incentive compensation. In addition, the second quarter of 2011 includes $1.1 million of costs associated with strategic planning projects, $0.6 million of transaction related expenses associated with the April 2011 acquisition described above, and $0.7 million of expenses incurred within the acquired business subsequent to the acquisition.

Foreign currency exchange

Foreign currency exchange primarily reflects the impact of currency translations on assets and liabilities held in our foreign operations that are denominated in currencies other than functional currencies. Our foreign operations have a portion of their cash and accounts receivable that are denominated in U.S. dollars. During the second quarter of 2011 and 2010, our foreign currency exchange transactions were favorably impacted by the weakening U.S. dollar as compared to other currencies in our foreign operations.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2011 was $10.7 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 35.7%, compared to $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2010, reflecting an effective tax rate of 42.6%. The high effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2010 was due to losses generated in Brazil for which the recording of a tax benefit was not permitted.

Operating Segment Results

Fluids Systems and Engineering

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

		Second Quarter								2011 vs 2010
(In thousands)		2011				2010				$				%
United States		$	137,147			$	106,804			$	30,343				28	%
Canada			3,653				2,374				1,279				54	%
Total North America			140,800				109,178				31,622				29	%
Mediterranean			26,202				30,160				(3,958	)			(13	%)
Brazil			17,609				11,196				6,413				57	%
Asia Pacific			6,594				—				6,594				—
Total		$	191,205			$	150,534			$	40,671				27	%

North America revenues increased 29% to $140.8 million for the second quarter of 2011, as compared to $109.2 million for the second quarter of 2010, largely attributable to the 21% increase in the North America rig count. Revenues from all U.S. operating regions improved from the second quarter of 2010, with the exception of East Texas and the Louisiana Gulf Coast, both of which experienced lower drilling activity in the second quarter of 2011.

Internationally, revenues were up 22% to $50.4 million for the second quarter of 2011, as compared to $41.4 million for the second quarter of 2010. This increase includes $6.6 million of revenues from our Asia Pacific region following the April 2011 acquisition described above, along with a $6.4 million increase in Brazil, primarily attributable to the continued ramp-up of activity under our long-term contract with Petrobras. Mediterranean revenues were down $4.0 million, including a $3.3 million decline in Tunisia due to a reduction in customer activity, and a $4.7 million decline in Libya, as operations have ceased in this country. These declines were partially offset by improvements in other markets, including a $3.0 million increase in Eastern Europe.

Operating Income

Operating income for this segment was $20.8 million, reflecting an operating margin of 10.9%, in the second quarter of 2011, compared to $15.2 million, and a 10.1% operating margin in the second quarter of 2010. Of this $5.6 million improvement, our North American operating income increased $4.4 million on a $31.6 million increase in revenues, reflecting a 14% incremental margin. Compared to historical experience, the low incremental margin is the result of a greater mix of low margin products in the second quarter of 2011, as compared to the second quarter of 2010. Our product mix typically fluctuates from period to period based on the specific customer activities and needs in the period. In addition, performance-based employee incentive compensation was $1.4 million higher in the second quarter of 2011, due to the improving performance of the business segment in 2011.

Our international operations generated a $1.3 million increase in operating income on a $9.0 million increase in revenues, reflecting a 14% incremental margin. The low incremental margin is due partially to the acquisition of our Asia Pacific business unit in the second quarter of 2011, which generated $0.9 million of operating income in the second quarter. In addition, the second quarter of 2011 was negatively impacted by a $0.8 million provision for an allowance of a customer receivable in North Africa.

Mats and Integrated Services

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

		Second Quarter								2011 vs 2010
(In thousands)		2011				2010				$				%
Mat rental and integrated services		$	18,574			$	10,612			$	7,962				75	%
Mat sales			9,219				6,369				2,850				45	%
Total		$	27,793			$	16,981			$	10,812				64	%

Mat rental and integrated services revenues increased $8.0 million, including a $7.0 million increase in the Northeast U.S., resulting from increased customer demand in this region, along with a $0.7 million increase in the Gulf Coast region. Mat sales also increased $2.9 million, due to increasing demand for these products from the E&P industry.

During the second quarter of 2011, our rental mat fleet deployed in the Northeast U.S. region was near full utilization. In July 2011, our largest customer in this region informed us that they intend to reduce the number of mats utilized on their drilling sites by approximately 70%. As a result, while we work to redeploy these mats to other customers and regions, we expect mat rental revenues to decline approximately $6 million to $7 million in the third quarter of 2011, as compared to the second quarter levels.

Operating Income

Segment operating income increased by $9.7 million on the $10.8 million increase in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 90%. The high incremental margin is primarily attributable to the higher mix of mat rental activity relative to mat sales. Incremental margins on mat rentals are stronger than mat sales or service activities due to the fixed nature of operating expenses, including depreciation expense on our rental mat fleet. In addition, transportation expenses decreased $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2011, as the second quarter of 2010 included costs to re-deploy rental mats to the Northeast U.S. region from our Gulf Coast locations in order to meet customer demand.

As noted above, we expect rental revenues to decline approximately $6 million to $7 million in the third quarter of 2011, as compared to the second quarter of 2011. Due to the fixed nature of the operating expenses associated with our rental activities, we expect segment operating income to decrease significantly as a result of the decline in revenues. Further, the redeployment of rental mats to meet customer demand in other regions would cause transportation expenses to increase.

Environmental Services

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

		Second Quarter								2011 vs 2010
(In thousands)		2011				2010				$				%
E&P waste		$	9,393			$	11,357			$	(1,964	)			(17	%)
NORM and industrial waste			2,431				2,480				(49	)			(2	%)
Total		$	11,824			$	13,837			$	(2,013	)			(15	%)

Environmental services revenues declined 15% to $11.8 million in the second quarter of 2011, as compared to the second quarter of 2010. The second quarter of 2010 included $2.0 million of revenues from disposals associated with the April 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

Operating Income

Operating income for this segment decreased by $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2011, compared to the second quarter of 2010, on a $2.0 million decline in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 62%. The high incremental impact to operating income from the decline in revenues is due to the fixed nature of the majority of our operating expenses in this segment, including operating costs and depreciation expense.

Corporate office

Corporate office expenses increased $2.4 million to $6.9 million in the second quarter of 2011, compared to $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to a $1.2 million increase in performance-based employee incentive compensation associated with the improvements in Company financial performance, along with $0.6 million of transaction-related expenses associated with the April 2011 acquisition described above.

Revenues

Revenues increased 27% to $433.5 million in the first half of 2011, compared to $342.2 million in the first half of 2010. This $91.3 million improvement includes a $73.0 million (28%) increase in revenues in North America, largely driven by the 25% improvement in the U.S. rig count. Revenues from our international operations increased by $18.3 million (23%) reflecting continued growth in Brazil, along with the contribution of the Asia Pacific region, following our April 2011 acquisition. Additional information regarding the change in revenues is provided within the operating segment results below.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues increased 21% to $337.9 million in the first half of 2011, as compared to $278.8 million in the first half of 2010. The increase is primarily driven by the 27% increase in revenues. Additional information regarding the change in cost of revenues is provided within the operating segment results below.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.2 million to $37.0 million in the first half of 2011 from $30.8 million for the first half of 2010. The increase includes a $1.9 million increase in performance-based employee incentive compensation. In addition, the first half of 2011 includes $1.1 million of costs associated with strategic planning projects, $1.0 million of transaction related expenses associated with the April 2011 acquisition described above, and $0.7 million of expenses incurred within the acquired business subsequent to the acquisition.

Foreign currency exchange

Foreign currency exchange primarily reflects the impact of currency translations on assets and liabilities held in our foreign operations that are denominated in currencies other than functional currencies. Our foreign operations have a portion of their cash and accounts receivable that are denominated in U.S. dollars. During the first half of 2011 and 2010, our foreign currency exchange transactions were favorably impacted by the weakening U.S. dollar as compared to other currencies in our foreign operations.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for income taxes for the first half of 2011 was $20.2 million of expense, reflecting an effective tax rate of 36.5%, compared to $12.4 million in the first half of 2010, reflecting an effective tax rate of 40.0%. The high effective tax rate in the first half of 2010 was due to losses generated in Brazil for which the recording of a tax benefit was not permitted.

North America revenues increased 27% to $264.3 million for the first half of 2011, as compared to $208.1 million for the first half of 2010, largely attributable to the 25% increase in the North American rig count. Revenues from all U.S. operating regions improved from the first half of 2010, with the exception of East Texas and the Louisiana Gulf Coast, both of which experienced lower drilling activity in the first half of 2011.

Internationally, revenues were up 24% to $97.3 million for the first half of 2011, as compared to $78.8 million for the first half of 2010. This increase includes $6.6 million of revenues from our Asia Pacific region following the April 2011 acquisition described above, along with an $11.1 million increase in Brazil, primarily attributable to the continued ramp-up of activity under our long-term contract with Petrobras. Mediterranean revenues increased slightly, as a $10.0 million increase in our Eastern Europe operations was largely offset by declines in other markets, including a $4.2 million decline in Tunisia attributable to a reduction in customer activity, and a $6.3 million decline in Libya due to the political and social unrest.

Operating Income

Operating income for this segment was $40.0 million reflecting an operating margin of 11.1%, in the first half of 2011, compared to $27.6 million, and a 9.6% operating margin in the first half of 2010. Of this $12.4 million improvement, our North American operating income increased $8.0 million on a $56.3 million increase in revenues, reflecting a 14% incremental margin. Compared to historical experience, the low incremental margin is the result of a greater mix of low margin products in the first half of 2011, as compared to the first quarter of 2010. Our product mix typically fluctuates from period to period based on the specific customer activities and needs in the period. In addition, performance-based employee incentive compensation was $1.2 million higher in the first half of 2011, due to the improving performance of the business segment in 2011.

Our international operations generated a $4.4 million increase in operating income on an $18.6 million increase in revenues, reflecting a 24% incremental margin. The low incremental margin is partially due to the acquisition of our Asia Pacific business unit in the second quarter of 2011, which generated $0.9 million of operating income in the first half of 2011. In addition, the first half 2011 operating income of our international operations was negatively impacted by a $0.8 million provision for an allowance of a customer receivable in North Africa.

Mats and Integrated Services

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

		First Half								2011 vs 2010
(In thousands)		2011				2010				$				%
Mat rental and integrated services		$	34,246			$	18,342			$	15,904				87	%

Total		$	50,856			$	30,601			$	20,255				66	%

Mat rental and integrated services revenues increased $15.9 million, including a $16.4 million increase in the Northeast U.S. region, slightly offset by $0.5 million in declines in other regions. Mat sales also increased $4.4 million, due to increasing demand for these products from the E&P industry.

During the first half of 2011, our rental mat fleet deployed in the Northeast U.S. region was near full utilization. In July 2011, our largest customer in this region informed us that they intend to reduce the number of mats utilized on their drilling sites by approximately 70%. As a result, while we work to redeploy these mats to other customers and regions, we expect mat rental revenues to decline approximately $6 million to $7 million in the third quarter of 2011, as compared to the second quarter levels.

Operating Income

Segment operating income increased by $18.8 million on the $20.3 million increase in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 93%. The high incremental margin is primarily attributable to the higher mix of mat rental activity relative to mat sales. Incremental margins on mat rentals are stronger than mat sales or service activities, due to the fixed nature of operating expenses, including depreciation expense on our rental mat fleet. In addition, transportation expenses decreased $1.2 million in the first half of 2011, as the first half of 2010 included costs to re-deploy rental mats to the Northeast U.S. region from our Gulf Coast locations in order to meet customer demand.

As noted above, we expect rental revenues to decline approximately $6 million to $7 million in the third quarter of 2011, as compared to the second quarter of 2011. Due to the fixed nature of the operating expenses associated with our rental activities, we expect segment operating income to decrease significantly as a result of the decline in revenues. Further, the redeployment of rental mats to meet customer demand in other regions would cause transportation expenses to increase.

Environmental Services

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

		First Half								2011 vs 2011
(In thousands)		2011				2010				$				%
E&P waste — Gulf Coast		$	15,747			$	19,930			$	(4,183	)			(21	%)

Total		$	20,945			$	24,705			$	(3,760	)			(15	%)

Environmental services revenues declined 15% to $20.9 million in the first half of 2011, as compared to the first half of 2010. Substantially all of the decline is attributable to lower E&P waste from offshore Gulf of Mexico, reflecting the impact of U.S. government restrictions on drilling activity in the Gulf of Mexico. In addition, the first half of 2010 included $2.0 million of revenues from disposals associated with the April 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

Operating income for this segment decreased by $2.3 million in the first half of 2011, compared to the first half of 2010, on a $3.8 million decline in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 61%. The high incremental impact to operating income from the decline in revenues is due to the fixed nature of the majority of our operating expenses in this segment, including operating costs and depreciation expense.

Corporate office

Corporate office expenses increased $2.9 million to $11.6 million in the first half of 2011, compared to $8.6 million in the first half of 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to a $1.2 million increase in performance-based employee incentive compensation associated with the improvements in Company financial performance, along with $1.0 million of transaction-related expenses associated with the April 2011 acquisition described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities during the first half of 2011 totaled $21.1 million. Net income adjusted for non-cash items provided $61.4 million of cash during the period, while changes in operating assets and liabilities used $40.2 million of cash, including a $32.3 million increase in receivables, resulting from the increase in revenues, along with an $5.3 million reduction of accrued liabilities following the March 2011 payment of 2010 performance-based incentive compensation.

Net cash used in investing activities during the first half of 2011 was $42.2 million, which included $25.6 million for the acquisition of the drilling fluids and engineering services business from Rheochecm PLC and capital expenditures of $16.8 million. Net cash provided by financing activities during the first half of 2011 was $0.6 million.

We anticipate that our working capital requirements for our operations will fluctuate with our revenue activity in the near term. Further, we expect total 2011 capital expenditures to range between $30 million to $35 million in addition to the investment for the Rheochem acquisition. The Rheochem acquisition also contains a one-year earn-out provision, under which we are obligated to pay additional consideration in the first quarter of 2012, up to a maximum of $22 million, in addition to amounts already paid. We expect our $64.3 million of cash on-hand at June 30, 2011, along with cash generated by operations and availability under our existing credit agreement to be adequate to fund our anticipated capital needs during the next 12 months.

Our capitalization is as follows:

		June 30,				December 31,
(In thousands)		2011				2010
Senior Notes		$	172,500			$	172,500
Foreign bank lines of credit			976				1,458
Other			578				635
Total debt			174,054				174,593
Stockholder’s equity			462,967				417,347
Total capitalization		$	637,021			$	591,940
Total debt to capitalization			27.3	%			29.5	%

In addition to the borrowings noted above, we have a $150.0 revolving credit facility (“Facility”) which expires in December 2012 under which there were no borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2011. Under the terms of the Facility, we can elect to borrow at an interest rate either based on LIBOR plus a margin based on our consolidated leverage ratio, ranging from 400 to 750 basis points, or at an interest rate based on the greatest of: (a) prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate in effect plus 50 basis points, or (c) the Eurodollar rate for a Eurodollar Loan with a one-month interest period plus 100 basis points, in each case plus a margin ranging from 300 to 650 basis points. The applicable margin on LIBOR borrowings at June 30, 2011 was 400 basis points. In addition, we are required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Facility of 50 basis points. As of June 30, 2011, we had $21.2 million of letters of credit issued under this Facility, leaving $128.8 million available for borrowing. The Facility contains certain financial covenants including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum consolidated leverage ratio, and a maximum funded debt-to-capitalization ratio. We were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2011, and expect to remain in compliance through June 30, 2012.

The Facility is a senior secured obligation, secured by first liens on all of our U.S. tangible and intangible assets, including our accounts receivable and inventory. Additionally, a portion of the capital stock of our non-U.S. subsidiaries has also been pledged as collateral.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires us to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported. We periodically evaluate our estimates and judgments related to uncollectible accounts and notes receivable, customer returns, reserves for obsolete and slow moving inventory, impairments of long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangibles and our valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on our future expectations that we believe to be reasonable. The combination of these factors forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from our current estimates and those differences may be material.

For additional discussion of our critical accounting estimates and policies, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our critical accounting policies have not changed materially since December 31, 2010.

ITEM 3.		Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and changes in foreign currency rates. A discussion of our primary market risk exposure in financial instruments is presented below.

Interest Rate Risk

At June 30, 2011, we had total debt outstanding of $174.1 million, including $172.5 million of borrowings under our Senior Notes, bearing interest at a fixed rate of 4.0% and $1.6 million of other borrowings, which bear interest at variable rates. Due to the limited borrowing currently outstanding under variable rate agreements, interest rate risk is minimal.

Foreign Currency

In addition to the April 2011 acquisition in Australia, our principal foreign operations are conducted in certain areas of Europe and North Africa, Brazil, Canada, U.K. and Mexico. We have foreign currency exchange risks associated with these operations, which are conducted principally in the foreign currency of the jurisdictions in which we operate which include European euros, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars and Brazilian reais. Historically, we have not used off-balance sheet financial hedging instruments to manage foreign currency risks when we enter into a transaction denominated in a currency other than our local currencies because the dollar amount of these transactions has not warranted our using hedging instruments.

ITEM 4.		Controls and Procedures

ITEM 4.		[Removed and Reserved]

ITEM 5.		Other Information

Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), each operator of a coal or other mine is required to include certain mine safety results in its periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not believe that certain operations of our subsidiary, Excalibar Minerals LLC (“Excalibar”), are subject to the jurisdiction of the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) and we previously filed an action with MSHA requesting a transfer of regulatory jurisdiction for the operations of Excalibar to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”). Our request to transfer regulatory jurisdiction for these operations from MSHA to OSHA has been denied. As a result, the four specialized barite and calcium carbonate grinding facilities operated by Excalibar and a gravel excavation facility formerly operated by the Mats and Integrated Services business were subject to the regulation by MSHA under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”). As required by the reporting requirements regarding mine safety included in the Dodd-Frank Act, Exhibit 99.1 includes the information for the three months ended June 30, 2011 for each of the specialized facilities operated by our subsidiaries.
