NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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, 2012. 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 2013 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, 2013, the results of our operations for the second quarter and first half of 2013 and 2012, and our cash flows for the first half of 2013 and 2012. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Our balance sheet at December 31, 2012 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, 2012.

New Accounting Standards

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued additional guidance on disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income which was effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2013. This new guidance requires entities to present (either on the face of the income statement or in the notes) the effects on the line items of the income statement for amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. During the second quarter and first half of 2013, we had no reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income, the only changes relate to foreign currency translation adjustments.

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

Weighted average dilutive stock options and restricted stock outstanding totaled approximately 5.3 million and 2.9 million shares for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, and 5.7 million and 2.9 million for the first half of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The resulting net effect of stock options and restricted stock were used in calculating diluted earnings per share for the period.

During the second quarter of 2013, 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 714,879 shares of time-vesting restricted stock and restricted stock units, which vest equally over a three-year period. Non-employee directors received shares of restricted stock totaling 67,365 shares, which will vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date. The fair value on the date of grant for both of these awards was $11.43 per share.

Additionally, 497,658 stock options were granted to executive officers and other key employees at an exercise price of $11.43, which provides 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 $5.42. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model included a risk free interest rate of 1.02%, expected life of 5.22 years and expected volatility of 53.7%.

The Compensation Committee also approved performance-based awards during the second quarter of 2013 to executive officers. The performance-based restricted stock units will be settled in shares of common stock and will be based on the relative ranking of the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) as compared to the TSR of the Company’s designated peer group for 2013. The performance period began May 3, 2013 and ends June 1, 2016, with the ending TSR price being equal to the average closing price of our shares over the 30-calendar days ending June 1, 2016. A total of 149,532 performance restricted stock units were granted with the payout of shares for each executive ranging from 0%-150% of target. The estimated fair value of each restricted stock unit at the date of grant using the Monte Carlo valuation model was $13.11. The valuation was done as of June 3, 2013, which included a risk free interest rate of 0.52%, the average closing price of our shares over the 30-calendar days ending June 3, 2013 of $11.33 and expected volatility of 53.58%.

In April 2013, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to purchase up to $50.0 million of its outstanding shares of common stock. These purchases will be funded with a combination of cash generated from operations and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, and the repurchase program has no specific term. The Company may repurchase shares in the open market or as otherwise determined by management, subject to market conditions, business opportunities and other factors. As part of the share repurchase program, the Company’s management has been authorized to establish trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of June 30, 2013, no repurchases had been made under this program.

In December 2012, we completed the acquisition of substantially all assets and operations of Alliance Drilling Fluids, LLC (“Alliance”), a provider of drilling fluids, proppant distribution, and related services headquartered in Midland, Texas. Total cash consideration at closing was approximately $53 million, which was funded through borrowings on our revolving credit facility. The purchase price is subject to further adjustments, based upon actual working capital conveyed. Additional consideration up to $4.3 million may be payable based on the profitability of the proppant distribution business over the two-year period following the acquisition.

The transaction has been recorded 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 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 as of the December 31, 2012 acquisition date.

The other non-current liabilities balance above includes $4.3 million of post-closing payments due to the seller, reflecting the expected contingent consideration described above.

Receivables - Receivables consist of the following:

Inventories - Our inventories include $198.9 million and $208.6 million for our drilling fluids systems at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The remaining balance consists primarily of composite mat finished goods.

Our financing arrangements include $172.5 million of unsecured convertible senior notes (“Senior Notes”) and a $125.0 million revolving credit facility which can be increased by $75.0 million for a maximum $200.0 million of capacity. At June 30, 2013, $78.0 million was outstanding under the revolving credit facility. 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, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The estimated fair value of our Senior Notes is $217.9 million at June 30, 2013 and $176.0 million at December 31, 2012, based on quoted market prices at these respective dates.

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.

Summarized operating results for our reportable segments is shown in the following table (net of inter-segment transfers):

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, 2012. Our second quarter represents the three month period ended June 30 and our first half represents the six month period ending June 30. Unless otherwise stated, all currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars.

Overview

We are a diversified oil and gas industry supplier providing products and services primarily to the oil and gas exploration and production (“E&P”) industry. We operate our business through three reportable segments: Fluids Systems and Engineering, Mats and Integrated Services, and Environmental Services.

Our Fluids Systems and Engineering segment, which generated 86% of consolidated revenues in the first half of 2013, provides customized drilling fluids solutions to E&P customers globally, operating through four geographic regions: North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), Latin America, and Asia Pacific.

In December 2012, we completed the acquisition of substantially all assets and operations of Alliance Drilling Fluids, LLC (“Alliance”), a provider of drilling fluids, proppant distribution, and related services headquartered in Midland, Texas. Total cash consideration at closing was approximately $53 million, which was funded through borrowings on our revolving credit facility. The purchase price is subject to further adjustments, based upon actual working capital conveyed. Additional consideration up to $4.3 million may be payable based on the profitability of the proppant distribution business over the two year period following the acquisition.

In the second quarter of 2013, we announced three international contract awards, including two in the deepwater market.  In Brazil, we were awarded a two-year contract from a subsidiary of Total S.A., to provide drilling fluids and related services for a series of wells planned in the Campos Basin.  In our EMEA region, we were awarded a contract by another customer to provide drilling fluids and related services for a series of wells to be drilled in the Black Sea.  In addition, we were awarded a five year contract by the Kuwait Oil company to provide drilling fluids and related services for land operations. Work under all three contracts is expected to begin in late 2013 or early 2014.

We are continuing the roll-out of Evolution ^® , 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 completing the roll-out of the system into most major North American drilling basins in 2011 and 2012, we are seeking to further penetrate markets in North America, while expanding into key international markets. The system was first used in our EMEA region during the fourth quarter of 2012 and we expect the introduction of the system in the Asia Pacific region during the second half of 2013. Revenues from wells using the Evolution system were approximately $54 million in the first half of 2013, compared to $50 million in the first half of 2012.

Our Mats and Integrated Services segment, which generated 8% of consolidated revenues in the first half of 2013, provides composite mat rentals, well site construction and related site services to oil and gas customers and mat rentals to the petrochemicals industry in the U.S. and the utility industry in the U.K. We also sell composite mats to E&P customers outside of the U.S., and to domestic customers outside of the oil and gas industry.

During the later part of 2012, we developed a spill containment system using our manufactured composite mat products, which provides our customers with a sealed work surface and enhanced environmental protection on the well site. Field testing of this system began in the fourth quarter of 2012 and we continue to make system refinements based upon the results of field testing. In preparation for the launch of the new spill containment system later in 2013, we allocated the majority of our first half 2013 composite mat production toward the expansion of our rental fleet, leaving fewer mats available for sale to customers. Mat sales in the first half of 2013 were $13.2 million, a 54% decline from the first half of 2012.

In May 2013, we announced that our Board of Directors had approved commencement of a process to sell our Environmental Services business. We have begun the initial steps, including contacting potentially interested parties and soliciting indications of interest. At this time, there can be no assurances given that we will continue with the sales process or that a sale will be completed.

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 2013, as compared to the second quarter and first half of 2012 is as follows:

Second Quarter of 2013 Compared to Second Quarter of 2012

Consolidated Results of Operations

Summarized results of operations for the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012 are as follows:

Revenues

Revenues increased 13% to $276.6 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $245.8 million in the second quarter of 2012. This $30.9 million increase includes a $10.6 million increase in revenues in North America, largely driven by the December 2012 acquisition of Alliance as described above. Revenues from our international operations increased by $20.3 million (38%), including gains in all regions. Additional information regarding the change in revenues is provided within the operating segment results below.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues increased 12% to $225.2 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $201.5 million in the second quarter of 2012. The increase is primarily driven by the 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 $4.7 million to $24.7 million in the second quarter of 2013 from $19.9 million in the second quarter of 2012. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in personnel and administrative costs related to company growth as well as costs associated with strategic planning projects.

Foreign currency exchange

Foreign currency exchange was a $0.5 million loss in both the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, and primarily reflects the impact of currency translations on assets and liabilities held in our international operations that are denominated in currencies other than functional currencies.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense totaled $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2012, primarily due to the impact of increased borrowings under our revolving credit facility following the Alliance acquisition described above.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2013 was $8.0 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 33.7%, compared to $7.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, reflecting an effective tax rate of 33.5%.

Operating Segment Results

Summarized financial information for our reportable segments is shown in the following table (net of inter-segment transfers):

Fluids Systems and Engineering

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

North American revenues increased 8% to $161.4 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $149.7 million in the second quarter of 2012. The increase is largely attributable to market share gains in South and West Texas, benefitting from our December 2012 acquisition of Alliance. The increase in the U.S. was partially offset by a $3.4 million decline in Canada, due in part to a 14% decline in rig count, as compared to the prior year.

Internationally, revenues were up 38% to $72.6 million in the second quarter of 2013, as compared to $52.7 million in second quarter 2012. This increase is primarily attributable to continued market expansion in our EMEA region, which benefitted from increasing customer activity in all of our key markets in the region. In addition, revenues in Brazil increased by $4.3 million, primarily due to increasing activity with Petrobras.

Operating Income

Operating income increased $4.2 million in the second quarter of 2013, as compared to the second quarter of 2012, primarily due to improvements in our North American operations. Profitability in the prior year second quarter was negatively impacted by the significant regional shift in U.S. customer drilling activity, moving from dry gas regions to oil and liquid-rich regions.  During this period of regional transition, operating expenses were elevated due to operating cost inefficiencies as we re-deployed personnel and assets among regions and modified our regional business unit infrastructures to meet the changing activity levels.  Following the period of transition, we have executed a series of cost reduction and other profit improvement initiatives, which have contributed to the operating income improvement in the second quarter of 2013. Of the $4.2 million increase in operating income, a $2.8 million improvement was attributable to the North American business, which includes a $1.0 million decline in our completion services and equipment rental business.

Our international operating income increased $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012. The second quarter 2013 results include a charge of approximately $1.8 million in Brazil, reflecting an adjustment to previously estimated margins on unbilled sales to Petrobras. The $1.4 million increase in operating income is primarily attributable to the $19.9 million increase in international revenues noted above, partially offset by the second quarter 2013 charge in Brazil.

Mats and Integrated Services

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

Mat rental and services revenues increased $2.2 million as compared to the second quarter of 2012, primarily due to increasing demand for our composite mat products, particularly in the Northeast U.S. region. Mat sales decreased by $6.9 million from the prior year period as we allocated the majority of our composite mat production toward the expansion of our rental fleet, in preparation for the launch of our new spill containment system.

Operating Income

Segment operating income decreased by $2.7 million on the $4.7 million decrease in revenues, reflecting a decremental margin of 59%. The decrease in operating income is primarily attributable to the decrease in mat sales in the second quarter of 2013.

The levels of mats sales in a given quarter are determined by several factors, including customer demand, as well as our allocation of mat production between sales and deployment into our rental fleet. The allocation of our production between additions to our rental fleet and sales in any given quarter is driven by a number of factors including commitments to meeting customer schedules, ability of our customers to take delivery of mats, timing of large mat rental projects/events, and plant capacity/efficiencies.

Environmental Services

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

Environmental services revenues increased 30% to $17.2 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to the second quarter of 2012, primarily due to increases in offshore activity in the U.S. Gulf Coast.

Operating Income

Operating income for this segment increased by $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to the second quarter of 2012, reflecting an incremental margin of 46%. The increase in operating income is primarily attributable to the $3.9 million increase in revenues, offset by higher operating expenses, including a $1.1 million increase in transportation costs resulting from the higher waste volume.

Corporate Office

Corporate office expenses increased $1.1 million to $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2012.  The increase is primarily attributable to increases in personnel and administrative costs related to company growth, including a $0.3 million increase in equity-based compensation expense.

Revenues

Revenues increased 10% to $559.1 million in the first half of 2013, compared to $508.1 million in the first half of 2012. This $51.0 million increase includes an $18.4 million increase in revenues in North America, largely driven by the December 2012 acquisition of Alliance as described above. Revenues from our international operations increased by $32.6 million (29%), including gains in all regions. Additional information regarding the change in revenues is provided within the operating segment results below.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues increased 9% to $455.7 million in the first half of 2013, compared to $416.4 million in the first half of 2012. The increase is primarily driven by the 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 $7.6 million to $48.8 million in the first half of 2013 from $41.3 million in the first half of 2012. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in personnel and administrative costs related to company growth as well as costs associated with strategic planning projects.

Foreign currency exchange

Foreign currency exchange was a $0.1 million loss in the first half of 2013, compared to a $0.2 million loss in the first half of 2012, and primarily reflects the impact of currency translations on assets and liabilities held in our international operations that are denominated in currencies other than functional currencies.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense totaled $5.3 million for the first half of 2013 compared to $4.9 million for the first half of 2012, primarily due to the impact of increased borrowings under our revolving credit facility following the Alliance acquisition described above.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for income taxes for the first half of 2013 was $16.8 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 33.7%, compared to $15.6 million in the first half of 2012, reflecting an effective tax rate of 34.2%.

Operating Segment Results

Summarized financial information for our reportable segments is shown in the following table (net of inter-segment transfers):

Fluids Systems and Engineering

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

North American revenues increased 9% to $339.2 million in the first half of 2013, compared to $310.8 million in the first half of 2012. The increase is largely attributable to market share gains in South and West Texas, benefitting from our December 2012 acquisition of Alliance.

Internationally, revenues were up 29% to $142.1 million in the first half of 2013, as compared to $110.1 million in first quarter of 2012. This increase is primarily attributable to continued market expansion in our EMEA region, along with increased activity with Petrobras in Brazil.

Operating Income

Operating income increased $12.8 million in the first half of 2013, as compared to the first half of 2012, primarily due to improvements in our North American operations. Profitability in the prior year was negatively impacted by several factors, including declines in our completion services and equipment rental business, along with the significant regional shift in U.S. customer drilling activity, moving from dry gas regions to oil and liquid-rich regions.  During this period of regional transition, operating expenses were elevated due to operating cost inefficiencies as we re-deployed personnel and assets among regions and modified our regional business unit infrastructures to meet the changing activity levels.  Following the period of transition, we have executed a series of cost reduction and other profit improvement initiatives, which have contributed to the operating income improvement in the first half of 2013. In addition, the first half 2013 operating income benefitted from the $60.4 million increase in revenues, including revenues from the Alliance acquisition described above.

Mats and Integrated Services

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

Mat rental and services revenues increased $0.9 million as compared to the first half of 2012, including a $0.8 million increase from our U.K. rental business. In addition, mat sales decreased by $15.5 million over the prior year period as we allocated the majority of our composite mat production toward the expansion of our rental fleet, in preparation for the launch of our new spill containment system.

Operating Income

Segment operating income decreased by $8.6 million on the $14.6 million decrease in revenues, reflecting a decremental margin of 59%. The decrease in operating income is primarily attributable to the decrease in mat sales in the first half of 2013.

Revenues

Total revenues for this segment consisted of the following:

Environmental services revenues increased 20% to $31.8 million in the first half of 2013, compared to $26.6 million in the first half of 2012, primarily due to increases in offshore activity in the U.S. Gulf Coast.

Operating Income

Operating income for this segment increased by $1.7 million in the first half of 2013, compared to the first half of 2012, reflecting an incremental margin of 33%. The increase in operating income is primarily attributable to the $5.2 million increase in revenues, offset by higher operating expenses, including a $1.4 million increase in transportation costs resulting from the higher waste volume.

Corporate Office

Corporate office expenses increased $1.6 million to $12.7 million in the first half of 2013, compared to $11.1 million in the first half of 2012.  The increase is primarily attributable to increases in personnel and administrative costs related to company growth.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities during the first half of 2013 totaled $43.9 million. Net income adjusted for non-cash items provided $58.8 million of cash during the period, while changes in operating assets and liabilities used $14.9 million of cash.

Net cash used in investing activities during the first half of 2013 was $36.8 million, primarily consisting of expenditures associated with the construction of a new technology center in our fluids systems and engineering segment and expansion of our mat rental fleet in our mats and integrated services segment.

We anticipate that our working capital requirements for our operations will decline in the near term due to continued efforts to reduce accounts receivable and inventory from the levels at June 30, 2013. We expect total 2013 capital expenditures to range between $55 million to $65 million. As of June 30, 2013, substantially all of our $58.0 million of cash on-hand resides within our foreign subsidiaries which we intend to leave permanently reinvested abroad. We expect our subsidiary cash on-hand, 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.
