NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
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 third quarter represents the three month period ended September 30 and our first nine months represents the nine month period ended September 30. The results of operations for the third quarter and first nine months 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 September 30, 2011, the results of our operations for the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 and 2010, and our cash flows for the first nine months 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
Each reporting period we consider all newly issued but not yet adopted accounting and reporting guidance applicable to our operations and the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We do not believe that any issued accounting and reporting guidance we have not yet adopted will have a material impact on our financial statements at the time they may be adopted.

Stock options and warrants excluded from calculation of diluted earnings per share because anti-dilutive for the period
2,862 2,167 3,913 3,941
Weighted average dilutive stock options and restricted stock outstanding totaled approximately 4.5 million and 5.0 million shares, for the third quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 3.1 million and 3.3 million shares for the first nine months 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 September 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 was AUD$27.2 million ($28.8 million), including third quarter payments of AUD$0.8 million ($0.8 million) based on a true-up of the final working capital conveyed at closing and AUD$2.0 million ($2.1 million) related to a six month earn-out provision in the agreement. 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 additional consideration of AUD$19.3 million (approximately $18.8 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 preliminary 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. Through the on-going evaluation of the preliminary purchase price allocation during the third quarter of 2011, we identified a $2.0 million increase in identifiable intangible assets acquired and a $1.3 million increase in liabilities assumed, which resulted in a corresponding $0.7 million decrease in goodwill arising from the transaction.
The following table summarizes the amounts recognized for assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as of the April 2011 acquisition date.

The accrued liabilities at the date of acquisition in the table above, includes $13.8 million reflecting anticipated post-closing payments to the seller under the terms of the agreement, of which $2.9 million was paid during the third quarter of 2011.
Our operating results include $1.0 million of acquisition-related costs in the first nine months of 2011, substantially all of which were incurred prior to the third quarter. 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.

$ 253,595 $ 196,799
During 2011, $5.2 million of fully reserved trade receivables were written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Inventories — Our inventories include $155.4 million and $122.5 million of raw materials and components for our drilling fluids systems at September 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 September 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 September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The estimated fair value of our Senior Notes is $163.9 million at September 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.

ITEM 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion of our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources should be read together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our third quarter represents the three month period ended September 30, and our first nine months represents the nine month period ended September 30. Unless otherwise stated, all currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars.
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 in the Asia Pacific region, (as described below). 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 78% of total reported revenues for the first nine months of 2011, and our consolidated revenues by segment are as follows:

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 $17 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $44 million in the first nine months 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 was AUD$27.2 million ($28.8 million), including third quarter payments of AUD$0.8 million ($0.8 million) based on a true-up of the final working capital conveyed at closing and AUD $2.0 million ($2.1 million) related to a six month earn-out provision in the agreement. 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 additional consideration of AUD$19.3 million (approximately $18.8 million at the current exchange rate). Following the April 2011 acquisition, this business has generated $15.1 million of revenues, including $8.5 million in the third quarter.
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.

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 46% to $261.2 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $179.3 million in the third quarter of 2010. This $81.9 million improvement includes a $70.2 million (50%) increase in revenues in North America, largely driven by the 21% improvement in the North America rig count. Revenues from our international operations increased by $11.7 million (30%), primarily attributable to $8.5 million of 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 39% to $201.3 million in the third quarter of 2011, as compared to $145.2 million in the third quarter of 2010. The increase is primarily driven by the 46% 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 $4.1 million to $20.8 million in the third quarter of 2011 from $16.7 million for the third quarter of 2010. The increase includes $1.1 million in the corporate office, largely attributable to higher performance-based employee incentive compensation. In addition, expenses in the fluids systems and engineering segment were up $2.3 million, including $1.3 million of third quarter 2011 expenses associated with the Asia Pacific business unit acquired in April 2011.
Other operating income, net
Other operating income was $0.1 million in the third of 2011, compared to $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2010. The third quarter of 2010 included a $2.2 million gain, reflecting net proceeds from the settlement of a lawsuit in our Mats and Integrated Services segment.
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 third quarter of 2011 and 2010, our foreign currency exchange transactions were unfavorably impacted by the strengthening U.S. dollar as compared to other currencies in our foreign operations.
Provision for income taxes
The provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2011 was $13.2 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 36.5%, compared to $6.8 million in the third quarter of 2010, reflecting an effective tax rate of 45.4%. The high effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2010 was due to losses generated in Brazil for which the recording of a tax benefit was not permitted.

North America revenues increased 44% to $157.4 million for the third quarter of 2011, as compared to $109.2 million for the third quarter of 2010, largely attributable to the 21% increase in the North America rig count along with market share improvements in several regions.
Internationally, revenues were up 51% to $58.8 million for the third quarter of 2011, as compared to $39.0 million for the third quarter of 2010. This increase includes a $9.4 million increase in Brazil, primarily attributable to the continued ramp-up of activity under our long-term contract with Petrobras, along with $8.5 million of revenues from our Asia Pacific region following the April 2011 acquisition described above. Mediterranean revenues increased $1.8 million, as a $3.3 million increase in Algeria and a $3.0 million increase in our Eastern European markets were partially offset by a $2.6 million decline in Libya, due to the social and political unrest in that country.

Operating Income
Operating income for this segment was $25.6 million, reflecting an operating margin of 11.9% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $11.8 million, and an 8.0% operating margin in the third quarter of 2010. Of this $13.8 million improvement, our North American operating income increased $10.6 million on a $48.2 million increase in revenues, reflecting a 22% incremental margin.
Our international operations generated a $3.2 million increase in operating income on a $19.8 million increase in revenues, reflecting a 16% incremental margin. The lower incremental margin is due partially to the acquisition of our Asia Pacific business unit in 2011, which generated $0.6 million of operating income in the third quarter. In addition, the third 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:
Third Quarter 2011 vs 2010
(In thousands) 2011 2010 $ %
Mat rental and integrated services
$ 16,139 $ 12,413 $ 3,726 30 %
Mat sales
14,040 5,773 8,267 143 %
Total
$ 30,179 $ 18,186 $ 11,993 66 %
Mat rental and integrated services revenues increased $3.7 million, including a $1.4 million increase in the Rockies region, a $1.1 million increase in the Gulf Coast and a $0.9 million increase in the Northeast U.S. Mat sales increased $8.3 million, due to increasing demand for our composite mat products from international E&P customers and other industries.
In July 2011, our largest customer in the Northeast U.S. region informed us that they intend to reduce the number of rental mats utilized on their drilling sites by approximately 70% and have since returned these mats over the course of the third quarter. As a result of this development, our revenues in this region declined by $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2011 from the second quarter of 2011. While we anticipate revenues in this region to decline further in the fourth quarter of 2011 as a result of the returned mats being utilized by the customer for a portion of the third quarter, the returned mats are being re-deployed to other regions and we expect increases in rental revenues from other regions to largely offset the anticipated revenue reduction in the Northeast.
Operating Income
Segment operating income increased by $5.9 million on the $12.0 million increase in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 49%. The low incremental margin, relative to recent historical experience, is primarily attributable to the higher mat sales activity as margins on mat sales are lower than margins on mat rentals, due to the fixed nature of rental activity operating expenses, including depreciation expense on our rental mat fleet.

Environmental services revenues increased 15% to $14.9 million in the third quarter of 2011, as compared to the third quarter of 2010. The third quarter of 2010 included $5.4 million of revenues from disposals associated with the April 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The loss of this revenue in the third quarter of 2011 was more than offset by market share gains and increased activity in oilfield waste disposals from state water and inland locations.
Operating Income
Operating income for this segment increased by $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to the third quarter of 2010, on a $1.9 million increase in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 53%. The high incremental impact to operating income from the higher 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 $1.1 million to $5.9 million in the third quarter of 2011, compared to $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2010. The increase includes a $1.0 million increase in employee compensation, primarily attributable to an increase in performance-based employee incentives and share-based compensation.

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 nine months of 2010, our foreign currency exchange transactions were favorably impacted by the weakening U.S. dollar as compared to other currencies in our foreign operations, while the first nine months of 2011 was negatively impacted by the strengthening U.S. dollar.
Provision for income taxes
The provision for income taxes for the first nine months of 2011 was $33.4 million of expense, reflecting an effective tax rate of 36.5%, compared to $19.3 million in the first nine months of 2010, reflecting an effective tax rate of 41.8%. The high effective tax rate in the first nine months of 2010 was due to losses generated in Brazil for which the recording of a tax benefit was not permitted.

Mediterranean revenues increased $2.7 million, as a $13.0 million increase in Eastern Europe and $2.8 million increase in Algeria was largely offset by declines in other markets, including a $5.1 million decline in Tunisia attributable to a reduction in customer activity, and an $8.9 million decline in Libya due to the political and social unrest in that country.
Operating Income
Operating income for this segment was $65.6 million reflecting an operating margin of 11.4%, in the first nine months of 2011, compared to $39.4 million, and a 9.1% operating margin in the first nine months of 2010. Of this $26.2 million improvement, our North American operating income increased $18.6 million on a $104.5 million increase in revenues, reflecting an 18% incremental margin. Compared to historical experience, the low incremental margin is the result of a greater mix of low margin products in the first nine months of 2011, as compared to the first nine months of 2010. Our product mix typically fluctuates from period to period based on the specific customer activities and needs in the period.
Our international operations generated a $7.6 million increase in operating income on a $38.4 million increase in revenues, reflecting a 20% 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 $1.5 million of operating income in the first nine months of 2011. In addition, operating income of our international operations was negatively impacted for the first nine months of 2011 by a $1.5 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 Nine Months 2011 vs 2010
(In thousands) 2011 2010 $ %
Mat rental and integrated services
$ 50,385 $ 30,755 $ 19,630 64 %
Mat sales
30,650 18,032 12,618 70 %
Total
$ 81,035 $ 48,787 $ 32,248 66 %
Mat rental and integrated services revenues increased $19.6 million, including a $17.3 million increase in the Northeast U.S. region. Mat sales also increased $12.6 million, due to increasing demand for our composite mat products from international E&P customers and other industries.
In July 2011, our largest customer in the Northeast U.S. region informed us that they intend to reduce the number of rental mats utilized on their drilling sites by approximately 70% and have since returned these mats over the course of the third quarter. As a result of this development, our revenues in this region declined by $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2011 from the second quarter of 2011. While we anticipate revenues in this region to decline further in the fourth quarter of 2011 as a result of the returned mats being utilized by the customer for a portion of the third quarter, the returned mats are being re-deployed to other regions and we expect increases in rental revenues from other regions to largely offset the anticipated revenue reduction in the Northeast.
Operating Income
Segment operating income increased by $24.7 million on the $32.2 million increase in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 77%. The high incremental margin, relative to recent historical experience, is primarily attributable to the higher percentage 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.
Environmental Services
Revenues
Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:
First Nine Months 2011 vs 2011
(In thousands) 2011 2010 $ %
E&P waste
$ 27,276 $ 30,509 $ (3,233 ) (11 %)
NORM and industrial waste
8,523 7,148 1,375 19 %
Total
$ 35,799 $ 37,657 $ (1,858 ) (5 %)
Environmental services revenues declined 5% to $35.8 million in the first nine months of 2011, as compared to the first nine months of 2010. The first nine months of 2010 included $7.4 million of revenues from disposals associated with the April 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The loss of this revenue in 2011 was partially offset by market share gains and increased activity in oilfield waste disposals from state water and inland locations.

Operating Income
Operating income for this segment decreased by $1.3 million in the first nine months of 2011, compared to the first nine months of 2010, on a $1.9 million decline in revenues, reflecting an incremental margin of 68%. 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 $4.0 million to $17.5 million in the first nine months of 2011, compared to $13.5 million in the first nine months of 2010. The increase includes a $2.3 million increase in employee compensation, primarily attributable to a $1.5 million increase in performance-based employee incentives, 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 nine months of 2011 totaled $34.7 million. Net income adjusted for non-cash items provided $100.2 million of cash during the period, while changes in operating assets and liabilities used $65.5 million of cash, including tax payments of $20.8 million. The changes in operating assets and liabilities during the period reflect the impact of the increased revenues, including $57.6 million from increases in receivables and $27.9 million in increases in inventories, partially offset by a $28.9 million increase in accounts payable.
Net cash used in investing activities during the first nine months of 2011 was $54.5 million, which included $26.8 million for the acquisition of the drilling fluids and engineering services business from Rheochecm PLC. In addition, capital expenditures were $28.1 million, including $9.5 million on the implementation of an Oracle ERP system, $7.8 million in the U.S. operations of the fluids systems and engineering segment, primarily related to replacement of field equipment, and $6.5 million in the mats and integrated services segment, primarily related to the expansion of the rental mat fleet. Net cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of 2011 was $0.9 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 $35 million to $40 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 AUD$19.3 million (approximately $18.8 million at the current exchange rate), in addition to amounts already paid. We expect our $62.9 million of cash on-hand at September 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.

In addition to the borrowings noted above, we have a $150.0 million revolving credit facility (“Facility”) which expires in December 2012 under which there were no borrowings outstanding as of September 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 September 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 September 30, 2011, we had $18.9 million of letters of credit issued under this Facility, leaving $131.1 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 September 30, 2011, and expect to remain in compliance through September 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 September 30, 2011, we had total debt outstanding of $174.5 million, including $172.5 million of borrowings under our Senior Notes, bearing interest at a fixed rate of 4.0% and $2.0 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, and U.K. 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.

There has been no change in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.
Legal Proceedings
The information set forth in the legal proceedings section of “Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.
ITEM 1A.
Risk Factors
Information regarding risk factors appears in Item 1A to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The risk factor described below updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2010.
Risks Related to the Availability of Raw Materials
Our ability to provide products to our customers is dependent upon our ability to obtain the raw materials necessary to operate our business.
Barite is a naturally occurring mineral that constitutes a significant portion of our drilling fluids systems. We currently secure the majority of our barite ore from foreign sources, primarily China and India. The availability and cost of barite ore is dependent on factors beyond our control including power shortages, political priorities and government imposed export fees in China as well as natural disasters such as the 2008 earthquake in Sichuan Province, China. During 2011, there has been a significant increase in world-wide demand for barite ore, and as result, we have experienced significant cost increases in barite ore sourced from China. In response to this development, we continue our efforts to maintain our profitability by identifying other economical sources of barite ore and adjusting our customer pricing to offset the inflationary cost increases that we are currently experiencing. Our operating costs in future periods may continue to increase as a result of the increased demand in barite ore and we may be unable to offset these cost increases with customer pricing, which may result in a reduction in future profitability. Further, the future supply of barite ore from existing sources could be inadequate to meet the current market demand, which could ultimately result in a reduction in industry activity, or our inability to meet our customer’s needs.

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 September 30, 2011 for each of the specialized facilities operated by our subsidiaries.
