PARKER DRILLING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.		*General* — In the opinion of the management of Parker Drilling Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments (of a normally recurring nature) which are necessary for a fair presentation of (1) the financial position as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, (2) the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and (3) cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. Results for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2009. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

		*Stock-Based Compensation* - Total stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 was $0.8 million and $3.7 million and $2.7 million and $6.5 million, respectively, all of which was related to non-vested stock of the Company (or “restricted stock”) plan expense. Stock-based compensation expense is included in our consolidated condensed income statement in both “General and administration expense” and “operating expense.” There were no unvested stock options at September 30, 2009. The Company had 205,300 outstanding and exercisable stock options as of September 30, 2009, the aggregate intrinsic value of which was negligible, with a weighted average exercise price of $3.10. Unvested restricted stock awards at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 were 2,677,094 shares and 1,458,716 shares, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unamortized restricted stock awards was $3.4 million as of September 30, 2009 and $3.8 million as of December 31, 2008. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to unamortized restricted stock awards will be amortized over a weighted-average vesting period of approximately one year.

		For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the restricted stock vestings resulted in a tax benefit that was less than the deferred tax asset previously recognized. As a result, a shortfall or “tax cost” of $1.8 million for the nine months ended was offset against additional paid in capital.

		*Convertible Senior Notes, including call options and warrants* - In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued accounting guidance in respect to “accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement). The accounting guidance requires that the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) be separated to account for the fair value of the debt and equity components as of the date of issuance to reflect the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. The accounting guidance was effective for financial periods beginning after December 15, 2008 and was applied retrospectively to all periods presented (retroactive restatement).

		The adoption of the new rules on January 1, 2009 impacted the treatment of the Company’s 2.125 percent convertible senior notes due 2012 by reclassifying a portion of the convertible note balances to additional paid in capital for the estimated fair value of the conversion feature at the date of issuance and creating a discount on the convertible notes that will be amortized through interest expense over the life of the convertible notes. The Company’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate at the date of issuance (July 2007) was 7.25 percent and, accordingly, adoption of the accounting rules resulted in a significant increase in interest expense, and reduced net income and basic earnings per share in the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. Upon adoption, the Company restated its “Accumulated deficit” balance by approximately $6.8 million to reflect the additional interest expense from issuance on July 5, 2007 through December 31, 2008 and reduced “Convertible senior notes” by $19.7 million, reflecting the issuance of the notes at a discount and including amortization of the discount from the transaction date through the adoption date. The Company’s “Paid in capital” balance increased by $26.5 million, reflecting the equity portion of the initial transaction. A deferred tax asset provision of $10.6 million was also established upon initial adoption with a corresponding reduction in “Paid in capital.” This provision was then reduced by $2.7 million with the offset to “Accumulated deficit” to reflect the benefit associated with the additional interest recorded from July 2007 to December 31, 2008. See the tables below for changes to the relevant 2008 financials.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

1.		*General (continued)*

		The maturity date of the notes (July 15, 2012) is the expected life of the liability due to the current market value of the Company’s stock which is significantly lower than the note conversion price of $13.85 per share. The 7.25 percent cost of non-convertible debt was calculated for use in our decision model when the convertible notes were issued in July 2007. Using 7.25 percent, the fair value of the notes was calculated to be $98.5 million and the discount on the notes $26.5 million. Interest expense for the three and nine months ended of September 30, 2009 was increased by $1.3 million and $3.8 million, respectively, to reflect the fair value increment calculated as the amortization of the debt discount, using the effective interest rate method. In addition, $0.7 million of interest expense was recognized during the current quarter for the contractual interest coupon on these convertible notes.

		*Property, Plant and Equipment* - In the first quarter 2009, we implemented a change in accounting estimate to more accurately reflect the useful life of some of the long-lived assets in our U.S. Drilling and International Drilling segments. This resulted in an approximate $12 million reduction in depreciation expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2009. We extended the useful lives of these long-lived assets based on our review of their service lives, technological improvements in the asset, and recent changes to our refurbishment and maintenance practices which helped to extend the lives.

		*Non-Controlling Interest —* In December 2007, the FASB issued accounting guidance in regards to noncontrolling interests in consolidating financial statements. The enhanced guidance related to the disclosure of information regarding noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary and their effect on the company. For the Company, the new guidance is effective January 1, 2009. The Company did not apply the disclosure provisions of the new guidance as the information regarding noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary is immaterial to the consolidated condensed financial statements.

		*Construction Contract* - Historically the Company has primarily constructed drilling rigs for its own use. In some instances, however, the Company enters into contracts to design, construct, deliver and commission a rig for a major customer. In 2008, we were awarded a cost reimbursable, fixed fee contract to construct, deliver and commission a rig for extended-reach drilling work in Alaska. Total cost of the construction phase is currently expected to be approximately $219 million. The Company recognizes revenues received and costs incurred related to its construction contract on a gross basis and income for the related fees on a percentage of completion basis using the cost-to-cost method. Construction costs in excess of funds received from the customer are accumulated and reported as part of other current assets. At September 30, 2009, a net asset of $18.7 million is included in other current assets.

		*Cash and Cash Equivalents* - For purposes of the balance sheet and the statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to be all highly liquid investment instruments that have a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase.

		*Subsequent Events* - In preparing these financial statements, we have evaluated subsequent events through November 6, 2009, which is the date the financial statements are being issued.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

2.		*Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) (continued)*

		There were no options to purchase shares of common stock outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2009, and options to purchase 90,300 shares of common stock with exercise prices ranging from $3.78 to $4.20 were outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares and would have been accretive. All stock options outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, were included in the computation of diluted EPS as the options’ exercise prices were less than the average market price of the common shares.

Business Segments - The five primary services we provide are as follows: International Drilling, U.S. Drilling, Project Management and Engineering Services, Construction Contract and Rental Tools. In the first quarter of 2008, the Company created the Project Management and Engineering Services segment by combining our labor, operations and maintenance and engineering services contracts which had been previously reported in our U.S. Drilling or International Drilling segments. The segment was created in anticipation of the significant expansion of these projects and services and senior management’s resultant separate performance assessment and resource allocation for this segment. This segment’s operations, unlike our U.S. and International Drilling and Rental Tools operations, generally require little or no capital expenditures, and therefore have different performance assessment and resource needs. The Company anticipates further growth of this segment of our business and reviews and assesses its performance separately. In the second quarter of 2008, the Company created the Construction Contract segment to reflect the Company’s Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation contract (“EPCI”). The Construction Contract segment income (fees) is accounted for on a percentage of completion basis using the cost-to-cost method. Revenues received and costs incurred related to the contract are recorded on a gross basis.

Disposition of Assets - In the first nine months of 2009 asset dispositions consisted primarily of the sale of miscellaneous equipment, resulting in a recognized gain of $2.0 million. Asset dispositions in the first nine months of 2008 included the sale of Rig 206 in Indonesia, which we sold at our net book value, and miscellaneous equipment that resulted in a recognized gain of $2.0 million.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. During March 2008, the Company resolved the pending tax case with the Kazakhstan Ministry of Finance by paying the reduced interest assessment related to tax payments made in 2007 (see Note 8 - Kazakhstan Tax Case), and we accordingly reduced the previously recorded accruals based on the final resolution of this matter. During 2009, the Company recognized $1.1 million of expense related to certain intercompany transactions between our U.S. companies and foreign affiliates. In addition, the Company recognized $0.4 million of expense in the third quarter of 2009 related to certain overhead charges at risk of not being fully deductible in a foreign jurisdiction by one of our foreign branches. As of September 30, 2009, the Company had a remaining liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $12.7 million primarily related to foreign operations.

Income Tax Expense — Income tax benefit was $9.2 million for the third quarter of 2009, as compared to income tax expense of $19.7 million for the third quarter of 2008 which includes the reversal of a $3.1 million reserve for 2007 foreign tax credits. The decrease in income tax expense in the third quarter of 2009, compared to the third quarter of 2008, was primarily due to lower pre-tax income in the third quarter of 2009, as well as an incremental tax benefit of $6.1 million for crediting foreign taxes previously deducted.

7.		*Saudi Arabia Joint Venture* - On April 9, 2008, a subsidiary of the Company executed an agreement (“Sale Agreement”) to sell its 50 percent share interest in Al-Rushaid Parker Drilling Co. Ltd. (“ARPD”) to an affiliate of the Al Rushaid subsidiary that owned the remaining 50 percent interest. The terms of the Sale Agreement provided for a $2.0 million payment to the Company’s subsidiary as consideration for the 50 percent share interest of the subsidiary and partial repayment of investments and advances of the Company’s subsidiary to ARPD, including a $5.0 million advance in January 2008. During the first quarter of 2008, the subsidiary made the decision to terminate any future funding to ARPD, and accordingly, the Company did not record equity in losses of ARPD in the first quarter of 2008. We recognized a $1.1 million loss, net of income taxes, in the first quarter of 2008 primarily as a result of nonrecoverable costs, as per the terms of the Sale Agreement, incurred by the Company’s affiliate to support ARPD operations. The subsidiary received the $2.0 million on April 15, 2008 in full settlement of the Company’s investment in and advances to ARPD. The Sale Agreement obligates the resulting Saudi shareholders to indemnify the Company’s subsidiary and its affiliates from claims arising out of, or related to, the operations of ARPD, including the drilling contracts between ARPD and Saudi Aramco, ARPD’s bank loans and vendors providing goods or services to ARPD. Each party has agreed to waive any claims that it may have against the other party arising out of the business of ARPD on or before the closing date, and subject to the formal transfer of the shares to the Company’s subsidiary, has agreed to disclaim any remaining rights with respect to the unpaid portion of shareholder loans and payables owed by ARPD to the subsidiary. The formal transfer of shares was approved by the Saudi Arabian authorities in July 2008.

		The agreement also provides that there are no restrictions on the Company or any of its affiliates with regard to competing with ARPD in the future, including in Saudi Arabia.

8.		*Kazakhstan Tax Case* - On October 12, 2005, the Kazakhstan Branch (“PKD Kazakhstan”) of Parker Drilling’s subsidiary, Parker Drilling Company International Limited (“PDCIL”), received an Act of Tax Audit from the Ministry of Finance of Kazakhstan (“MinFin”) assessing PKD Kazakhstan an amount of KZT (Kazakhstan Tenge) 14.9 billion (approximately $125.8 million). Approximately KZT7.5 billion or $63.3 million was assessed for import Value Added Tax (“VAT”) on equipment imported to perform drilling contracts, including administrative fines and interest (the “VAT Assessment”). Approximately KZT7.4 billion or $62.5 million was assessed for corporate income tax, individual income tax and social tax, administrative fines and interest in connection with reimbursements received by PDCIL from a client for the upgrade of Barge Rig 257 and other issues related to PKD Kazakhstan’s operations in the Republic of Kazakhstan (the “Income Tax Assessment”).

		On May 24, 2006, the Supreme Court of the Republic of Kazakhstan (“SCK”) issued a decision upholding the VAT Assessment. Consistent with its contractual obligations, on November 20, 2006, the client advanced the actual amount of the VAT Assessment and this amount has been remitted to MinFin. The administrative fines related to the VAT Assessment are being appealed. The client is contractually responsible to reimburse PKD Kazakhstan for any administrative fines ultimately assessed. The client has also contractually agreed to reimburse PKD Kazakhstan for any incremental income taxes that PKD Kazakhstan incurs from the reimbursement of this VAT Assessment. As of September 30, 2009, the appeal of the administrative fines was still being pursued.

		After multiple appeals to the SCK and two meetings of the U.S. Competent Authorities under the Mutual Agreement Procedure of the U.S.- Kazakhstan Tax Treaty, the SCK ultimately upheld the Income Tax Assessment and on December 12, 2007, PKD Kazakhstan paid the principal tax portion of the Income Tax Assessment, net of estimated taxes previously paid. After a further appeal against the interest portion of the notice of assessment, on February 25, 2008, the Atyrau Economic Court issued a ruling that interest on the income tax assessed should accrue from the October 12, 2005 assessment date as opposed to the original assessment in 2001, resulting in a revised interest assessment by the Atyrau Tax Committee of approximately US$13 million, which was paid by PKD Kazakhstan on March 14, 2008, in final resolution of this matter.

		In May 2008, accounting guidance was issued relating to accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement). The guidance requires that the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) be separated to account for the fair value of the debt and equity components as of the date of issuance to reflect the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. The accounting guidance is effective for financial periods beginning after December 15, 2008 and is applied retrospectively to all periods presented (retroactive restatement) (see Note 1).

		On May 15, 2008 we entered into a new Credit Agreement (“2008 Credit Facility”) with a five year senior secured $80.0 million revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility) and a senior secured term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility”) of up to $50.0 million. The obligations of the Company under the 2008 Credit Facility are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, except for domestic subsidiaries owned by foreign subsidiaries and certain immaterial subsidiaries, each of which has executed a guaranty. The 2008 Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants such as minimum ratios for consolidated leverage, consolidated interest coverage and consolidated senior secured leverage.

9.		*Long-Term Debt (continued)*

		The 2008 Credit Facility is available for general corporate purposes and to fund reimbursement obligations under letters of credit the banks issue on our behalf pursuant to this facility. Revolving loans are available under the 2008 Credit Facility subject to a borrowing base calculation based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable, certain specified barge drilling rigs and eligible rental equipment of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors. As of September 30, 2009, there were $17.7 million in letters of credit outstanding, $47.0 million outstanding on the Term Loan Facility and $42.0 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2009, the amount drawn represents 75 percent of the capacity of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Term Loan began amortizing on September 30, 2009 at equal installments of $3.0 million per quarter. On January 30, 2009, Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. assigned its obligations under the 2008 Credit Facility to Trustmark National Bank. Upon assignment, Trustmark National Bank fully funded Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc.’s commitment, including an additional $4.0 million that Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. did not fund in October 2008, therefore increasing our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility to $62.0 million at that time. The Company expects to use the drawn amounts over the next twelve months to fund construction of two new rigs for work in Alaska. As of September 30, 2009, the Company is in compliance with all covenants.

		The estimated fair value of our $225.0 million principal amount of 9.625% Senior Notes due 2013, based on quoted market prices, was $223.0 million at September 30, 2009. The estimated fair value of our $125.0 million principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2012 was $107.0 million on September 30, 2009.

10.		*Contingencies*

		Asbestos-Related Claims

		In August 2004, the Company was notified that certain of its subsidiaries have been named, along with other defendants, in several complaints that have been filed in the Circuit Courts of the State of Mississippi by several hundred persons that allege that they were employed by some of the named defendants between approximately 1965 and 1986. The complaints name as defendants numerous other companies that are not affiliated with the Company, including companies that allegedly manufactured drilling-related products containing asbestos that are the subject of the complaints.

		The complaints allege that the Company’s subsidiaries and other drilling contractors used asbestos-containing products in offshore drilling operations, land-based drilling operations and in drilling structures, drilling rigs, vessels and other equipment and assert claims based on, among other things, negligence and strict liability and claims under the Jones Act and that the plaintiffs are entitled to monetary damages. Based on the report of the special master, these complaints have been severed and venue of the claims transferred to the county in which the plaintiff resides or the county in which the cause of action allegedly accrued. Subsequent to the filing of amended complaints, Parker Drilling has joined with other co-defendants in filing motions to compel discovery to determine which plaintiffs have an employment relationship with which defendant, including whether or not any plaintiffs have an employment relationship with subsidiaries of Parker Drilling. To date, sixteen (16) plaintiffs have identified Parker Drilling or one of its affiliates as a defendant.

		The subsidiaries named in these asbestos-related lawsuits intend to defend themselves vigorously and, based on the information available to the Company at this time, the Company does not expect the outcome to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows; however, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits. No amounts were accrued at September 30, 2009.

		Gulfco Site

		Several years ago the Company received an information request under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) designating Parker Drilling Offshore Corporation, a subsidiary of Parker Drilling as a potentially responsible party with respect to the Gulfco Marine Maintenance, Inc. Superfund Site in Freeport, Texas (EPA No. TX 055144539). The subsidiary responded to this request in 2003. In January 2008, the subsidiary received an administrative order to participate in an investigation of the site and a study of the remediation needs and alternatives. The EPA alleges that the subsidiary is successor to a party who owned the Gulfco site during the time when chemical releases took place there. Two other parties have been performing that work since mid-2005 under an earlier version of the same order. The subsidiary believes that it has a sufficient cause to decline participation under the order and has notified the EPA of that decision. Non-compliance with an EPA order absent sufficient cause for doing so can result in substantial penalties under CERCLA. The subsidiary is continuing to evaluate its relationship to the site and has conferred with the EPA and the other parties in an effort to resolve the matter. The Company has not yet estimated the amount or impact on our operations, financial position or cash flows of any costs related to the site. To date, the EPA and other parties have spent approximately $3.0 million studying and conducting initial remediation of the site. It is anticipated that an additional $1.3 million or more will be required to complete the remediation. Other cost (not yet quantified) such as interest and administrative overhead could be added to any action against the company. However, we currently anticipate that the cost of investigation and remediation of the site will not exceed $5.0 million and will be shared by all responsible parties. The Company does not believe it has any obligation with respect to the remediation of the property, and accordingly no accrual was made as of September 30, 2009.

		Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) Investigation

		As previously disclosed, the Company received requests from the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in July 2007 and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in January 2008 relating to the Company’s utilization of the services of a customs agent. The DOJ and the SEC are conducting parallel investigations into possible violations of U.S. law by the Company, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”). In particular, the DOJ and the SEC are investigating the Company’s use of customs agents in certain countries in which the Company currently operates or formerly operated, including Kazakhstan and Nigeria. The Company is fully cooperating with the DOJ and SEC investigations and conducting an internal investigation into potential customs and other issues in Kazakhstan and Nigeria. At this point, we are unable to predict the duration, scope or result of the DOJ or the SEC investigation or whether either agency will commence any legal action. If we are not in compliance with the FCPA and other laws governing the conduct of business with foreign government entities (including other United States laws and regulations as well as local laws), we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties and other remedial measures, which could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

		Economic Sanctions Compliance

		Our international operations are subject to laws and regulations restricting our international operations including activities involving restricted countries, organizations, entities and persons that have been identified as unlawful actors or that are subject to U.S. economic sanctions. Pursuant to an internal review, we have identified certain shipments of equipment and supplies that were routed through Iran as well as other activities that may have violated applicable U.S. laws and regulations. In addition, we have engaged in drilling wells in the Korpedje Field in Turkmenistan, from where natural gas may be exported by pipeline to Iran. We are currently reviewing these shipments, transactions and drilling activities to determine whether the timing, nature and extent of such activities or other conduct may have given rise to violations of these laws and regulations. Although we are unable to predict the scope or result of this internal review or its ultimate outcome, we have initiated voluntary disclosure of these potential compliance issues to the appropriate U.S. government agency. If we are not in compliance with export restrictions, U.S. economic sanctions or other laws and regulations that apply to our international operations, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties and other remedial measures, which could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

		Kazakhstan Ministry of Finance Tax Audit

		On August 14, 2009, the Kazakhstan Branch (“PKD Kazakhstan”) of Parker Drilling’s subsidiary, Parker Drilling Company International Limited (“PDCIL”), received an Act of Tax Audit from the Ministry of Finance of Kazakhstan (“MinFin”) for the period January 01, 2005 through December 31, 2007. PKD Kazakhstan was assessed additional taxes in the amount of KZT (Kazakhstan Tenge) 1.45 billion (approximately $9.7 million) and associated interest in the amount of KZT 700 million (approximately $4.7 million). The amounts assessed relate to corporate income taxes and interest in connection with the disallowance of the head office’s management and administrative expenses, loan interest and state duties, as well as Value Added Taxes (“VAT”) and interest in connection with VAT offset on debts classified as doubtful by MinFin and for property taxes and interest in connection with Barge Rig 257 as a result of MinFin applying a lower rate of depreciation.

		On September 25, 2009, PKD Kazakhstan appealed the Act of Tax Audit with MinFin on the basis the Branch exercised its rights provided by the Convention between the Governments of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the United States of America on the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of the Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income and Capital as well as improper application of Kazakhstan Tax Code provisions. PKD Kazakhstan is currently waiting on MinFin’s response. As of November 6, 2009, MinFin had not responded to the appeal.

		Kazakhstan Ministry of Finance Tax Audit *(continued)*

		PKD Kazakhstan intends to defend itself vigorously and, based on the information available to the Company at this time, the Company does not expect the outcome to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows; however, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this Act of Tax Audit. No amounts were accrued at September 30, 2009.

11.		*Recent Accounting Pronouncements* - The FASB Accounting Standards Codification ™ (“ASC”) is the exclusive authoritative reference for nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for use in financial statements issued for both interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009, except for SEC rules and interpretive releases, which also are authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The change was established by FASB Statement 168, which divides nongovernmental U.S. GAAP into the authoritative Codification and guidance that is non-authoritative which essentially removed the FASB’s previous four-level hierarchy. We have implemented the Codification principles into this filing using the “plain English” approach as supported by the technical accounting guidance supporting the Codification.

		In May 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance related to “Subsequent Events,” which established general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. It requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. SFAS No. 165 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted the new disclosure requirements in our June 30, 2009 condensed consolidated financial statements.

		In April 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance related to “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” This guidance amended previously issued guidance about “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requiring publicly-traded companies to provide disclosures on the fair value of financial instruments in interim financial statements. The guidance was effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. We have adopted the new disclosure requirements in our June 30, 2009 financial statements.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK

Summary

The results of this past quarter reflect the harsh conditions that prevailed in many of our markets as well as the durability and resilience of the Company’s strategy, business balance and geographic diversity. Through cost containment actions we were able to moderate the adverse effects on our operations’ results while employing our business strategies as previously disclosed and discussed in our annual filings, we were able to maintain our competitive position.

The International Drilling, U.S. Gulf of Mexico Barge Drilling and Rental Tools segments reported lower revenues, compared to the prior year’s third quarter. These lower revenues were caused by reduced utilization in each business and lower dayrates for the barge drilling operations and higher price discounts for rental tools. The international drilling segment has experienced pricing pressures, though, by managing costs, the segment has improved its gross margin and gross margin as percent of revenues. Meanwhile, Project Management & Engineering Services revenues increased, due primarily to the long-term nature of our customers’ plans and programs. Construction Contract revenues increased in line with progress on the BP-owned Liberty rig (“Liberty”). Despite difficult and challenging market conditions, each of our operations produced positive gross margins, including the barge drilling business which recorded a 18.6 percent gross margin as a percent of sales (excluding non-cash depreciation) this past quarter and has achieved a positive gross margin year-to-date.

Overview

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2009 declined 20.0 percent to $181.4 million from the prior year’s third quarter revenues of $227.5 million, attributable to declines in worldwide drilling and tool rental revenues partially offset by increased revenues related to project management and construction contracts.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK (continued)

International Drilling revenues fell as a result of lower average fleet utilization. Rental Tools revenues decreased primarily from the decline in U.S. land and Gulf of Mexico shelf drilling activity and the impact of increased discounting. The discounting has been partially offset by increased demand for work-over equipment, increasing opportunities in the active shale regions and additional offshore deep drilling accounts. U.S. Barge Drilling revenues declined due to lower utilization and reduced dayrates. Revenues for Project Management and Engineering Services segment increased reflecting the contribution of pre-operational revenues for the Liberty rig operations and maintenance contract and from a FEED (“Front End Engineering Design”) study for Arkutun Dagi, while the Construction Contract segment revenues represent the Company’s progress on delivering, rigging-up and commissioning the Liberty rig.

The Company recorded operating income of $4.9 million for the 2009 third quarter, compared to $43.8 million for the prior year’s third quarter. International Drilling’s gross margin decreased from the prior year while gross margin as a percent of revenues improved, primarily as a result of lower operating costs throughout the segment. The decline in gross margin for Rental Tools reflected the significant reduction in overall demand due to reduced drilling activity in the U.S. land market and Gulf of Mexico shelf. This has led to competitive discounting of rental rates that has impacted the segment’s gross margin and gross margin as a percent of revenues. U.S. Barge Drilling’s gross margin level reflects the reduced market activity in the Gulf of Mexico barge drilling market. An improvement from the 2009 second quarter was achieved through increased rig utilization and cost management initiatives. Project Management and Engineering Services’ gross margin and gross margin as a percent of revenues increased due to the contribution from a FEED (“Front End Engineering Design”) study for Arkutun Dagi, commissioning the Liberty rig and a lower level of reimbursables in the current quarter.

Outlook

The U.S. Gulf of Mexico barge rig utilization rate increased sequentially in each of the last two quarters, rental tool placements have risen, the number of tenders for international drilling contracts has grown and project management opportunities have expanded. There are still areas of concern — dayrates remain under competitive market pressure, tool rental rates continue to be heavily discounted and contract commitments are slow to develop. Overall, though, we believe the outlook may be slowly improving. While there is some uncertainty in our outlook — and we believe it is warranted — we remain confident in the ability of our businesses to manage through these current market conditions to retain or add business based upon our technical capabilities and safety performance, and we will continue to control costs as we have demonstrated throughout the year. We believe these conditions present opportunities to make competitive and strategic gains based on the strength of our operations and business relationships.

We expect to maintain our international rig utilization near the current rate in the short term. The level of rig tenders is improving and should support the current fleet utilization rates. There is still some pressure on dayrates on re-contracted rigs and our challenge will be to match this with lower costs and improved efficiency. In addition, our Caspian Sea barge drilling rig will be on reduced dayrate beginning in the fourth quarter as it undergoes a scheduled overhaul and upgrade.

The slow pace of U.S. drilling and price discounting will continue to hamper our Rental Tools business. Added deepwater work and incremental activity in the Marcellus and other shale plays is expected to provide a partial offset to the discounting.

In the near-term, we expect the U.S. Gulf of Mexico barge business to stabilize around current levels. There has been an improvement in the market’s overall fleet utilization which may improve dayrates. We are near the end of hurricane season and that should remove one impediment to drilling demand.

Based on the currently contracted business, we anticipate project management to continue to perform at current levels through the remainder of the year.

Construction Contract revenues and gross margin will reflect progress on the BP-owned Liberty rig which has been successfully sea-lifted to its satellite drilling island in Alaska with completion of this contract anticipated to occur in early 2010.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 2009 Compared with Three Months Ended September 30, 2008

We recorded net income of $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to net income of $17.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Operating gross margin was $16.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $52.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008.

In the first quarter of 2008, we began separate presentation of our project management and engineering services segment. As part of our long-term strategic growth plan, we have begun to separately monitor the results of this non-capital intensive segment of operations. We also created a new segment in the second quarter of 2008 to separately reflect results of our rig construction contracts.

The following is an analysis of our operating results for the comparable quarters:

⁽¹⁾		Gross margins, excluding the depreciation and amortization line item are computed as revenues less direct operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization expense; gross margin percentages are computed as gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percent of revenues. The gross margin amounts, excluding depreciation and amortization, and gross margin percentages should not be used as a substitute for those amounts reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). However, we monitor our business segments based on several criteria, including gross margin. Management believes that this information is useful to our investors because it more accurately reflects cash generated by segment. Such gross margin amounts are reconciled to our most comparable GAAP measure as follows:

⁽²⁾		Gross margin (operating) — revenues less direct operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense.

International Drilling Segment

This segment’s revenues decreased $28.3 million to $64.0 million during the current quarter when compared to the third quarter of 2008.

Revenues in our Americas region decreased by $10.1 million mainly due to lower utilization and lower average dayrates. Revenues in our CIS AME region decreased by $12.2 million primarily due to three fewer rigs working during the period, with some offset resulting from improved dayrates on contracted rigs. In our Asia Pacific region, revenues decreased $6.0 million due to our operations ending in Papua New Guinea earlier in the year.

International operating gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased $6.5 million to $22.0 million during the current quarter of 2009 as compared to the third quarter of 2008. The decreased margins are attributable to the above mentioned decrease in revenues in the Asia Pacific regions being partially offset by lower operating expenses in our Africa Middle East regions and decreased margin during the third quarter of 2008, due to the change out of equipment in CIS AME and reduced activity in Indonesia.

U.S. Drilling Segment

Revenues for this segment decreased $32.4 million to $12.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to the market downturn which caused utilization to drop to 33 percent for the current quarter as compared to 79 percent in the same period in 2008 and a significant decrease in average dayrates from $39,900 to $26,200.

As a result of the above mentioned factors, operating gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased $20.7 million to $2.3 million when compared to the third quarter of 2008.

Project Management and Engineering Services Segment

Revenues for this segment increased $1.8 million during the current period as compared to the comparable period of 2008. This increase was primarily the result of higher revenues recognized for a FEED study for our Arkutun Dagi project and for start-up activities related to the Liberty project. This was partially offset by decreases in our project management division and engineering services segment.

Construction Contract Segment

Revenues from the construction of the Liberty extended-reach drilling rig for use in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea were $55.3 million for the third quarter of 2009. This project is a cost plus fixed fee contract. Operating gross margin for the EPCI project was $3.1 million based on the percentage of completion of the contract.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Rental Tools Segment

Rental tools revenues decreased $22.1 million to $23.9 million during the current quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2008. Lower overall demand has led to increased discounting, impacting both revenues and gross margin. Rental tools operating gross margins, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased $16.1 million to $11.7 million for the current quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2008.

Other Financial Data

Gain on disposition of assets for the third quarters of 2009 and 2008 was insignificant as a result of minor asset sales during each period. Interest expense and interest income remained relatively unchanged on a comparative basis. General and administration expense increased $0.5 million as compared to the third quarter of 2008.

Depreciation expense remained relatively unchanged on a comparative basis due to a change in the accounting estimate, extending the useful life of certain long-lived assets for depreciation purposes. We extended useful lives of these long-lived assets based on our review of their service lives, technological improvements in the asset, and recent improvements to our refurbishment and maintenance practices.

Provision for reduction in carrying value of certain assets was the result of writing down a $2.8 million asset related to vendor pre-payments whereby vendor filed bankruptcy.

Income tax benefit was $9.2 million for the third quarter of 2009, as compared to income tax expense of $19.7 million for the third quarter of 2008 which includes the reversal of a $3.1 million reserve for 2007 foreign tax credits. The decrease in income tax expense in the third quarter of 2009, compared to the third quarter of 2008, was primarily due to lower pre-tax income in the third quarter of 2009, as well as an incremental tax benefit of $6.1 million for crediting foreign taxes previously deducted.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009 Compared with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008

We recorded net income of $13.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to net income of $62.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Operating gross margin was $69.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $143.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

In the first quarter of 2008, we began separate presentation of our project management and engineering services segment. As part of our long-term strategic growth plan, we continue to separately monitor the results of this non-capital intensive group of operations. We also created a new segment in the second quarter of 2008 to separately reflect results of our rig construction contracts and we continue to separately monitor the results of that segment as well.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

International Drilling Segment

This segment’s revenues decreased $18.3 million to $220.6 million during the current period when compared to the same period of 2008.

Revenues in our Americas region increased by $1.0 million mainly due to an additional three rigs being fully operational during the current period as two were rigging up during the comparable period and one other became operational later in 2008. Revenues in our CIS AME region decreased by $5.9 million primarily attributable to lower utilization in Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, partially offset by a higher dayrate for our barge rig operating in the Caspian Sea. In our Asia Pacific region, revenues decreased $13.4 million due to lower utilization.

International operating gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $14.0 million to $80.0 million during the current period of 2009 as compared to the same period of 2008. The improved margins are attributable to the above mentioned increase in revenues and lower operating expenses in our Africa Middle East and Asia Pacific regions being partially offset by decreased margins due to the change out of equipment on rigs operating in CIS AME.

U.S. Drilling Segment

Revenues for this segment decreased $104.9 million to $35.1 million for the period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the period ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to the market downturn which caused utilization for the U.S. barges to drop to approximately 29 percent for the current period as compared with approximately 82 percent in the same period in 2008. As a result of the above mentioned factors, gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased $74.3 million to a $0.3 million when compared to the same period of 2008 and a significant decrease in average dayrates from $39,900 to $28,000.

Project Management and Engineering Services Segment

Revenues for this segment increased $9.6 million during the current period as compared to the same period of 2008. This increase was primarily the result of revenues recognized for a FEED study for the Arkutun Dagi project and for start-up activities related to the Liberty project. The increase was partially offset by decreases in other Operations and Maintenance Projects. Operating gross margin for this segment increased $7.8 million in the current period.

Construction Contract Segment

Revenues from the construction of the Liberty extended-reach drilling rig for use in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea were $149.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This project is a cost plus fixed fee contract. Operating gross margin for the EPCI project was $7.5 million in the current period based on the percentage of completion of the contract.

Rental Tools Segment

Rental tools revenues decreased $35.9 million to $89.9 million during the current period as compared to the same period of 2008. Lower overall demand has led to increased discounting, impacting both revenues and gross margin. Rental tools operating gross margins, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased $27.3 million to $48.5 million for the current period as compared to the same period of 2008.

Other Financial Data

Gain on dispositions of assets for the nine months ended of 2009 and 2008 was insignificant as a result of minor asset sales during each period. Interest expense increased $1.8 million during the current period as compared to the same period of 2008 due to higher borrowings on our credit facility. Interest income remained relatively unchanged on a comparative basis. General and administration expense increased $9.6 million as compared to the same period of 2008 due primarily to higher legal and professional fees associated with the ongoing DOJ and SEC investigations into the activities of a certain customs agent and international trade restrictions as discussed in Note 10 in the notes to the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

Other Financial Data (continued)

Income tax benefit was $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to income tax expense of $38.1 million for the comparable period of 2008. The decrease in income tax expense in the current period of 2009, compared to the same period of 2008, was primarily due to lower pre-tax income in the same period of 2009 and an incremental benefit of $6.1 million for crediting foreign taxes previously deducted. Income tax for the comparable period of 2008 includes a benefit of $13.4 of Accounting for Income Taxes (ASC740) interest and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to our settlement of interest related to our Kazakhstan tax case (see Note 8 – Kazakhstan Tax Case) in accordance with guidance relating to “Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes,” a valuation allowance of $4.1 million related to a Papua New Guinea deferred tax asset and the reversal of a $3.1 million reserve relating to 2007 foreign tax credits.

Provision for reduction in carrying value of certain assets was the result of writing down a $2.8 million asset related to vendor pre-payments whereby vendor filed bankruptcy.

Depreciation expense benefited by approximately $12 million due to a first quarter change in the accounting estimate related to the useful life of certain long-lived assets for depreciation purposes. We extended useful lives of these long-lived assets based on our review of their service lives, technological improvements in the assets and recent improvements to our refurbishment and maintenance practices.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

As of September 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $94.4 million, a decrease of $77.9 million from December 31, 2008. The primary source of cash for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 as reflected on the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows was $66.3 million provided by operating activities. The primary uses of cash were $126.9 million for capital expenditures and a net pay down of $19.0 million on our credit facility. Major capital expenditures for the period included $40.4 million on the construction of two new Alaska rigs and $30.9 million for tubulars and other rental tools.

As of September 30, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $75.3 million, an increase of $15.1 million from December 31, 2007. The primary sources of cash for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008 as reflected on the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows were $132.7 million provided by operating activities, net proceeds of $40.0 million from draws on our credit facilities and net proceeds of $3.3 million from the sale of assets and insurance proceeds. The primary uses of cash were $157.3 million for capital expenditures and a $5.0 million investment in our unconsolidated joint venture. Major capital expenditures for the period included $31.8 million on construction of new international land rigs, $29.0 million on the construction of two new Alaska rigs and $33.4 million for tubulars and other rental tools for Quail Tools.

Financing Activity

On July 5, 2007, we issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.125 percent Convertible Senior Notes due July 15, 2012. Interest is payable semiannually on July 15th and January 15th. The initial conversion price is approximately $13.85 per share and is subject to adjustment for the occurrence of certain events stated within the indenture. Proceeds from the transaction were used to call our outstanding Senior Floating Rate notes, to pay the net cost of hedge and warrant transactions and for general corporate purposes. Effectively, the hedge and warrant transactions increase the conversion price to approximately $18.29 per share.

On September 20, 2007, we replaced our existing $40.0 million Credit Agreement with a new $60.0 million Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“2007 Credit Facility”) which expires in September 2012. The 2007 Credit Facility was secured by rental tools equipment, accounts receivable and the stock of substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries, other than domestic subsidiaries owned by a foreign subsidiary, and contains customary affirmative and negative covenants such as minimum ratios for consolidated leverage, consolidated interest coverage and consolidated senior secured leverage.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (continued)

Financing Activity (continued)

On May 15, 2008 we entered into a new Credit Agreement (“2008 Credit Facility”) with a five year senior secured $80.0 million revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility) and a senior secured term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility”) of up to $50.0 million. The obligations of the Company under the 2008 Credit Facility are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, except for domestic subsidiaries owned by foreign subsidiaries and certain immaterial subsidiaries, each of which has executed a guaranty. The 2008 Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants such as minimum ratios for consolidated leverage, consolidated interest coverage and consolidated senior secured leverage.

The 2008 Credit Facility is available for general corporate purposes and to fund reimbursement obligations under letters of credit the banks issue on our behalf pursuant to this facility. Revolving loans are available under the 2008 Credit Facility subject to a borrowing base calculation based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable, certain specified barge drilling rigs and eligible rental equipment of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors. As of September 30, 2009, there were $17.7 million in letters of credit outstanding, $47.0 million outstanding on the Term Loan Facility and $42.0 million outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2009, the amount drawn represents nearly 75 percent of the capacity of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Term Loan began amortizing on September 30, 2009 at equal installments of $3.0 million per quarter. On January 30, 2009, Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. assigned its obligations under the 2008 Credit Facility to Trustmark National Bank. Upon assignment, Trustmark National Bank fully funded Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc.’s commitment, including an additional $4.0 million that Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. did not fund in October 2008, therefore increasing our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility to $62.0 million at that time. On June 3, 2009, the Company repaid $20.0 million of the Revolving Credit Facility, reducing the amount drawn to $42.0 million at September 30, 2009. The Company expects to use the drawn amounts over the next twelve months to fund construction of two new rigs for work in Alaska.

We had total long-term debt, including current portion, of $425.7 million as of September 30, 2009, which consists of:

	•		$125.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes at a coupon rate of 2.125 percent, which are due July 15, 2012 net of $15.9 million in unamortized debt discount;

	•		$225.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.625 percent Senior Notes, which are due October 1, 2013 plus an associated $2.6 million in unamortized debt premium; and

	•		$89.0 million drawn against our 2008 Credit Facility, including $42.0 million on our Revolving Credit Facility and $47.0 million on our Term Loan Facility, $12.0 million of which is classified as short term.

As of September 30, 2009, we had approximately $114.7 million of liquidity which consisted of $94.4 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $20.3 million of availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. We do not have any unconsolidated special-purpose entities, off-balance sheet financing arrangements nor guarantees of third-party financial obligations. We have no energy or commodity contracts.
