REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Compressco, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Compressco, Inc. as of December 31, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income and stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Compressco, Inc. as of December 31, 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

COMPRESSCO, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION

Compressco, Inc., formerly Emerging Alpha Corporation (the "Company"), was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 10, 1993 for the purpose of acquiring business opportunities. On October 29, 1999, the Company purchased Compressco Field Services, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation, and Compressco Testing L.L.C. The two companies are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.

The Company is engaged primarily in the manufacture, rental and service of natural gas compressors that provide economical well head compression to mature, low pressure natural gas wells. The Company's compressors are currently sold and leased to natural gas producers located primarily in the mid-continent hydrocarbon producing regions of the United States and western Canada. Compressco Testing L.L.C. is a natural gas measurement, testing and service company, based in Oklahoma City that began operations in September 1999.

In January 2000 the Company established a wholly owned energy production subsidiary, Providence Natural Gas, Inc., ("Providence") to acquire certain pressure depleted reservoirs, having key reservoir characteristics known to be receptive to well-head compression. The Company was not successful in this endeavor and management has elected to sell the acquired natural gas well in January 2003 and cease operations.

In October 2001, the Company established a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Compressco Canada, Inc., to market the sale and rental of compressors in Canada. During the fall of 2001 the Company hired a Canadian representative, opened an office and began to service the Canadian market. At December 31, 2003 the Company had 97 compressors on rental and has sold 28 compressors since inception. At December 31, 2003, the Company had 2 compressors off rental and 15 compressors in transit to Canada to be placed on rental in early 2004.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2003. All significant inter company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

CASH

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

INVENTORIES

Inventories consist primarily of compressor components and parts, and work-in-progress, and are stated at the lower of cost or market using the standard cost method.

OTHER ASSETS

The Company includes in other assets gross deferred financing costs of $86,912 related to the new bank credit agreement entered into effective June 30, 2003. These costs are being amortized on a straight line basis over the three-year life of the related financing. Accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2003 was $14,484.

F-7


COMPRESSORS, VEHICLES, EQUIPMENT AND OTHER PROPERTY

Compressors include units currently being rented and available for rent. Compressors, vehicles and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives:

 

Compressors

12 years

 
 

Equipment and other property

7 years

 
 

Vehicles

5 years

 
 

Information systems

3 years

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue on the sale of compressors and parts is recognized upon shipment of goods to customers. The Company rents compressors to customers on terms ranging from two weeks to one month. As of December 31, 2003, all monthly rental agreements are cancellable with 30 days written notice by the customer. Revenues from rental and service agreements are recognized as earned over the lives of the respective agreements.

FABRICATION SHOP OVERHEAD COSTS

The Company capitalizes certain fabrication shop overhead costs as part of the total cost of the compressors fabricated. The amount capitalized is based on the ratio of time spent on fabricating compressors and will vary with the level of production. The fabrication shop costs include payroll, burden, supplies, utilities, rent, freight and other miscellaneous costs. The portion of the fabrication shop overhead costs that is not capitalized as part of the compressors is expensed in the period incurred.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are provided to reflect the future tax consequences of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed using the currently enacted tax laws and rates that apply to the periods in which they are expected to affect taxable income. Income tax expense is the current tax payable or refundable benefit for the period plus or minus the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Deferred taxes are classified as current or noncurrent, depending on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred tax arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or noncurrent depending on the period in which the temporary differences are expected to be used. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Income taxes payable are provided for current income taxes due on the taxable income of Compressco Canada, Inc. In 2003, net operating losses from prior years were used to reduce a portion of the current year taxable income for Compressco Canada. There was no current income tax expense on the company’s domestic operations due to a tax loss being generated for 2003.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per common share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. The weighted-average number of shares used to compute basic earnings per common share was 153,235 for each year.

F-8


Diluted earnings per common share for each year was determined on the assumption that the stock options and stock warrants outstanding were exercised at beginning of each year. The weighted-average of fully diluted shares used to calculate diluted basic earnings for the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 were 229,266 and 173,989 respectively.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Compressco Canada Inc., maintains their accounting records in their local currency, Canadian Dollars, which is also its functional currency.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its fixed price stock options. Accordingly, no compensation cost for options has been recognized in the financial statements. The chart below sets forth the Company's net income and loss per share for year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, as reported and on a pro forma basis as if the compensation cost of stock options had been determined consistent with SFAS 123.

12,366,596

 
 

Total long-term debt

$17,916,596

 

 

(a) On December 22, 2000, the Company offered an issue of subordinated promissory notes and stock warrants (see Note 10) to qualified private investors. At December 31, 2003, $5,550,000 of the subordinated promissory notes were outstanding. Of the $5,550,000 in proceeds, $100,000 was allocated to the stock warrants. The notes are subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company and rank subordinate to all existing indebtedness of the Company. In March 2003 the Company and the holders of the subordinated promissory notes agreed to amend the promissory notes to extend the maturity to March 31, 2005, change the interest rate from 13% to 10% effective April 1, 2003 and make convertible by the holder into common stock of the Company at anytime prior to maturity at a conversion price of $150 per share. The Notes mature on the earlier of (1) the consummation of an underwritten public offering of the Company's capital stock or (2) March 31, 2005. The Company may, at any time prepay any part of the principal balance on the Notes, in increments of $10,000, without premium or penalty prior to maturity. Interest is payable at 13% per annum, 10% effective April 1, 2003, and is payable quarterly in arrears.

F-10


(b) The Company entered into a new credit agreement on June 30, 2003 with a bank and repaid all amounts due on its prior line of credit and term facilities. Under the new credit agreement the Company may borrow up to the lesser of $17,500,000 or the sum of (i) 85% of the aggregate amount of eligible receivables, (ii) 50% of the aggregate amount of eligible inventory, and (iii) the lower of 80% of the appraised orderly liquidated value or the net book value of its compressor fleet. In addition, no additional draws are permitted under the credit facility if utilization of the compressor fleet falls below 70%. As of December 31, 2003, the utilization rate of the compressor fleet was 92.5%. The balance outstanding under the line of credit agreement as of December 31, 2003 was $12,366,596. As of December 31, 2003 under the terms of the credit agreement the Company qualified to borrow the full $17,500,000 available under the credit agreement. The borrowing under the credit facility bear interest between 0.25% and 0.5% over Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (4.25% at December 31, 2003) or between 3.0% and 3.25% over LIBOR (4.15% at December 31, 2003) based on the Company’s ratio of debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Interest is due quarterly with all outstanding borrowings due at maturity on the earlier of June 30, 2006 or 45 days prior to the maturity of the $5,550,000 subordinated promissory notes currently due March 31, 2005. The loan is secured with the assets and compressor rental agreements of the Company. The Company’s credit facility imposes a number of financial and restrictive covenants that among things, limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens and pay dividends. As of December 31, 2003, the Company was in compliance with its loan covenant ratios. Management expects that the Company will be in compliance with the covenants under the credit facility for at least the next twelve months.

The annual maturities of long-term debt subsequent to December 31, 2003 are shown in the following table. The bank credit agreement is shown as maturing in 2005 based on its maturity date being the earlier of the maturity date of the subordinated promissory notes maturity of March 31, 2005 or the maturity of the bank credit agreement of June 30, 2006.

401(k) Plan

The Company implemented a 401(k) plan on October 1, 2001 in which substantially all full time employees of the Company are eligible to participate. The 401(k) plan provides that the Company will match 100% of the first 1% employee contribution and 50% of the next 2% of employee contributions to the plan. The employee vests in the Company’s contribution 50% after one year and 100% after two years. The Company contributions to the 401(k) plan were $43,396 and $40,154 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 respectively. Hartford Life is the plan provider and provides the investment, administrative and reporting services for the participants. The plan assets are invested, at the employee’s discretion, in a choice of several Hartford funds.

Stock Ownership and Incentive Stock Option Plan

The Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan provides for the issuance of up to 2 million shares of common stock at no less than 85% of market value at the time of grant (for non-qualified options) and no less than 110% of market value for incentive stock options.

The stock options outstanding that are not exercisable at December 31, 2003 become exercisable beginning in February 2004 through September 2006. The stock options are exercisable for a period of three years.

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," effective for the Company at March 31, 1997. Under SFAS 123, companies can either record expense based on the fair value of stock-based compensation upon issuance or elect to remain under the current APB Opinion No. 25 method whereby no compensation cost is recognized upon grant if the exercise price of options are 100% or greater than the stock price at the grant date. The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plan under APB Opinion No. 25. Entities electing to remain with the accounting in APB Opinion No. 25 must make disclosures as if SFAS 123 had been applied. The disclosure requirements of this Statement are effective for options granted in fiscal 1996 and later.

The SFAS No 123 method of accounting is based on several assumptions and should not be viewed as indicative of the operations of the Company in future periods. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2003 and 2002, as follows:

 

 

2003

2002

 
 

Interest rate

3.32%

3.74%

 
 

Dividend yield

0.00%

0.00%

 
 

Expected volatility

110.0%

110.0%

 
 

Expected life

6 years

The weighted average fair value per share of options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for 2003 and 2002, respectively are $69.44 and $38.38.

7. RELATED PARTIES:

Certain directors and their family members purchased a total of $1,550,000 of the subordinated promissory notes including 13,020 stock warrants from the offering made to private investors in December 2000. The directors and their family members purchased the Notes and Warrants under the same terms and conditions as all other investors.

Certain officers and directors are compensated based on actual time and expenses devoted to the Company's business. During the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, a consulting fee of $2,000 per month was paid to a director who served as the Company's secretary.

8. COMMITMENTS:

PURCHASE COMMITMENTS

The Company entered into a purchase agreement on December 14, 2000, with a supplier to purchase 1,000 compressor engines by December 31, 2002. At December 31, 2003 the Company has taken delivery of 548 engines from the supplier. The purchase agreement was amended on February 24, 2003, to provide that the Company shall purchase 13 engines per month commencing January 1, 2003 and not less than 156 engines

F-13


per year until the remaining balance of 452 engines have been purchased. The purchase agreement provides that the Company's liability to the supplier for any failure to purchase the full amount of engines is limited to (i) pay for engines delivered, (ii) reasonable direct out of pocket cost incurred by the supplier in acquiring material for production of the number of engines contemplated by the agreement and (iii) the reasonable costs incurred by the supplier for work in progress at the time of termination of the agreement including labor costs and reasonable quantities of parts and materials ordered by the supplier. The Company has complied with the requirements of the amended purchase agreement during 2003 and anticipates staying in compliance over the remaining life of the agreement.

FACILITIES AND VEHICLE LEASES

The Company has a three year lease terminating August 31, 2004 for its Oklahoma City manufacturing, warehouse and office facilities. The Company has a three year lease terminating September 5, 2004 for its warehouse and office facilities in New Mexico. Compressco Canada has a five year lease terminating December 31, 2008 for its warehouse and office facilities. The Company leases certain vehicles with original terms ranging up to two years.

As of December 31, 2003, future annual minimum lease payments under noncancellable operating leases were approximately $451,000 for 2004, $267,000 for 2005, $154,000 for 2006, $79,000 for 2007 and $79,000 for 2008.

Rent expense under all operating leases was approximately $529,000 and $517,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

9. MAJOR CUSTOMERS:

At December 31, 2003, the Company had approximately 385 customers. During the year ended December 31, 2003, we did not have sales to any one customer comprising more than 10% of our total revenues. At December 31, 2003, the Company had one customer, Chesapeake Operating Inc., which amounted to approximately 15% of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable balance.

10. STOCK WARRANTS:

In connection with the offering of the subordinated promissory notes discussed in Note 4, the Company issued stock warrants to purchase 420 shares of the Company's common stock per every $50,000 amount of Notes purchased. The warrants have an exercise price of $120 per share. At December 31, 2003 total stock warrants of 46,620 were issued and outstanding. The warrants are exercisable upon issuance, and expire on March 31, 2005. No stock warrants have been exercised as of December 31, 2003.

The Company obtained a valuation as to the amount to be assigned to the warrants from the total proceeds received from the issuance of the subordinated promissory notes. Based on the valuation estimate, the value assigned to the warrants is $100,000. This amount is shown as outstanding warrants in stockholders' equity and as a discount to the subordinated promissory notes. The discount will be amortized over the three-year life of the stock warrants as additional interest expense. The effective interest rate on the Notes is 13.84% when the value of the warrants is taken into consideration.

The value was determined using the Valrex model, which is an option valuation model that uses established option pricing theory to price nontrading options and warrants.

COMPRESSCO, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION

Compressco, Inc., formerly Emerging Alpha Corporation (the "Company"), was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 10, 1993 for the purpose of acquiring business opportunities. On October 29, 1999, the Company purchased Compressco Field Services, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation, and Compressco Testing L.L.C. The two companies are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.

The Company is engaged primarily in the manufacture, rental and service of natural gas compressors that provide economical well head compression to mature, low pressure natural gas wells. The Company's compressors are currently sold and rented to natural gas producers located primarily in the mid-continent hydrocarbon producing regions of the United States and western Canada. Compressco Testing L.L.C. is a natural gas measurement, testing and service company, based in Oklahoma City that began operations in September 1999.

In October 2001, the Company established a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Compressco Canada, Inc., to market the sale and rental of compressors in Canada. During the fall of 2001 the Company hired a Canadian representative, opened an office and began to service the Canadian market.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2004 and the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, such consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2003 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles. The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in connection with the Company’s December 31, 2003 audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-KSB.

The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2004.

3. DEBT

Debt consists of the following at June 30, 2004:

(a) On December 22, 2000, the Company offered an issue of 13% subordinated promissory notes (the “Notes”) and stock warrants (see Note 5) to qualified private investors. At June 30, 2004, $5,550,000 of the Notes were outstanding. Of the $5,550,000 in proceeds, $100,000 was allocated to the stock warrants. The Notes are subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company and rank subordinate to all existing indebtedness of the Company. In March 2003 the Company and the holders of the Notes agreed to amend the Notes to extend the maturity to March 31, 2005, change the interest rate from 13% to 10% effective April 1, 2003 and make the Notes convertible by the holder into common stock of the Company at anytime prior to maturity at a conversion price of $150 per share. The Notes mature on the earlier of (1) the consummation of an underwritten public offering of the Company’s capital stock or (2) March 31, 2005. The Company may, at any time prepay any part of the principal balance on the Notes, in increments of $10,000, without premium or penalty prior to maturity. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears.

-4-


The Notes are classified as current liabilities at June 30, 2004 and their maturity date is March 31, 2005. The Company plans to restructure the Notes in a manner acceptable to the Note holders prior to their maturity that will result in the Notes being converted to equity or extended.

(b) The Company entered into a new credit agreement on June 30, 2003 with a bank and repaid all amounts due on its prior line of credit and term facilities. The credit agreement was amended by a letter agreement dated June 22, 2004 in contemplation of the Company's execution of an Agreement and Plan of Merger described in Note 9 below. Under the new credit agreement the Company may borrow up to the lesser of $17,500,000 or the sum of (i) 85% of the aggregate amount of eligible receivables, (ii) 50% of the aggregate amount of eligible inventory, and (iii) the lower of 80% of the appraised orderly liquidated value or the net book value of its compressor fleet. In addition no additional borrowings are allowed if utilization of the compressor fleet falls below 70%. As of June 30, 2004 the utilization rate of the compressor fleet was 92.9%. The balance outstanding under the line of credit agreement as of June 30, 2004 was $15,266,596. The borrowing under the credit facility bears interest between 0.25% and 0.5% over Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (4.25% at June 30, 2004) or between 3.0% and 3.25% over LIBOR (1.60% at June 30, 2004) based on the Company’s ratio of debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Interest is due quarterly with all outstanding borrowings due at maturity which, as amended, is the earliest of (i) the consummation of the acquisition of the Company by TETRA Technologies, Inc. as described in Note 9 below, (ii) 45 days prior to the maturity of the $5,550,000 subordinated promissory notes currently due March 31, 2005, or (iii) June 30, 2006. The loan is secured with the assets and compressor rental agreements of the Company. The Company’s credit facility imposes a number of financial and restrictive covenants that among things, limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens and pay dividends. As of June 30, 2004 the Company was in compliance with its loan covenant ratios.

The bank credit agreement is classified as a current liability at June 30, 2004 due to the maturity date being 45 days prior to the maturity of the subordinated promissory notes that are currently due March 31, 2005.

4. COMMITMENTS

The Company entered into a purchase agreement on December 14, 2000, with a supplier to purchase 1,000 compressor engines by December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2004 the Company has taken delivery of 828 engines from the supplier including 280 during the first six months of 2004. The purchase agreement was amended on February 24, 2003 to provide that the Company shall purchase 13 engines per month commencing January 1, 2003 and not less than 156 engines per year until the remaining balance of 307 engines have been purchased. The purchase agreement provides that the Company’s liability to the supplier for any failure to purchase the full amount of engines is limited to (i) pay for the engines delivered, (ii) reasonable direct out of pocket costs incurred by the supplier in acquiring material for production of the number of engines contemplated by the agreement and (iii) the reasonable costs incurred by the supplier for the work in progress at the time of termination of the agreement including labor costs and reasonable quantities of parts and materials ordered by the supplier. The Company has complied with the requirements of the amended purchase agreement through June 30, 2004 and anticipates staying in compliance over the remaining life of the agreement.

5. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

In connection with the offering of the Notes discussed in Note 3, the Company issued stock warrants to purchase 420 shares of the Company’s common stock per every $50,000 amount of Notes purchased. The warrants have an exercise price of $120 per share. At June 30, 2004 total stock warrants of 46,620 were issued and outstanding. The warrants are exercisable upon issue, and expire on March 31, 2005. No stock warrants have been exercised as of June 30, 2004.

The Company obtained a valuation as to the amount to be assigned to the warrants from the total proceeds received from the issuance of the subordinated promissory notes. The value was determined using the Valrex model, which is an option valuation model that uses established option pricing theory to price

-5-


nontrading options and warrants. Based on the valuation estimate, the value assigned to the warrants is $100,000. This amount is shown as outstanding warrants in stockholders’ equity and as a discount to the subordinated promissory notes. The discount is being amortized over the three-year life of the stock warrants as additional interest expense.

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based upon and should be read in conjunction with historical consolidated financial statements and related notes of TETRA Technologies, Inc. (TETRA) and Compressco, Inc. (Compressco). TETRA, through the merger of its wholly owned subsidiary, TETRA Acquisition Sub, Inc. with and into Compressco, acquired Compressco on July 15, 2004.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of TETRA and its subsidiaries and the historical consolidated balance sheet of Compressco and its subsidiaries giving effect to the merger as if it had occurred on June 30, 2004 as an acquisition by TETRA of Compressco using the purchase method of accounting and giving effect to certain adjustments that are attributable to the acquisition of Compressco and which are described below and in the accompanying Notes to the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2003, combine the historical consolidated statements of operations of TETRA and its subsidiaries and the historical consolidated statements of operations of Compressco and its subsidiaries giving effect to the merger as if it had become effective at January 1, 2003 as an acquisition by TETRA of Compressco using the purchase method of accounting and giving effect to certain adjustments that are directly attributable to the acquisition of Compressco and will have a continuing impact and which are described below and in the accompanying Notes to the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. Certain items within Compressco’s financial statements have been reclassified to conform to TETRA’s financial statement presentation.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and assumptions that TETRA's management believes are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are based on the estimates and assumptions set forth in the notes accompanying those statements. The companies may have performed differently had they been combined. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future results that the combined company will experience after the merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of TETRA and Compressco, including the notes accompanying them.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared based on the following assumptions:

• TETRA acquired Compressco for approximately $94 million cash, including transaction costs. Additionally, TETRA repaid Compressco’s

 


outstanding bank debt, which approximated $15.27 million at June 30, 2004. The consideration was funded by TETRA using existing cash balances and the borrowing of $75 million under TETRA’s existing bank credit facility.

• As part of closing the transaction, Compressco subordinated debentures in the amount of approximately $5.5 million were converted into shares of Compressco common stock. Related stock purchase warrants were purchased by TETRA. Outstanding Compressco employee stock options were exchanged for net cash consideration.

• The unaudited pro forma balance sheet has been prepared as if the merger occurred on June 30, 2004. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations have been prepared as if the merger occurred on January 1, 2003.

• The merger was accounted for as a purchase of Compressco by TETRA.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited pro forma balance sheet and statements of operations present the pro forma effects of the merger. The balance sheet is presented as though the merger occurred on June 30, 2004. The statements of operations are presented as though the merger occurred on January 1, 2003.

2. Method of Accounting for the Merger

TETRA will account for the merger using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. TETRA was considered to be the acquiring company.

The purchase method of accounting requires that Compressco’s assets and liabilities assumed by TETRA be recorded at their estimated fair values. The purchase price of Compressco’s net assets will be based on the total cash value paid by TETRA, approximately $109 million.

3. Pro Forma Adjustments Related to the Merger

The unaudited pro forma balance sheet includes the following adjustments:

(a) This entry records the conversion of Compressco convertible subordinated promissory notes into shares of Compressco common stock.

(b) This entry records the exchange of Compressco employee stock options for cash consideration. Option holders received a net price per share in the merger transaction in lieu of submitting the cash option price to Compressco. Compressco paid the associated withholding tax related to the exchange of the options and received the tax benefit of the exercise, which occurred immediately prior to the merger.

(c) This entry records the purchase of 100% of Compressco common stock outstanding, plus outstanding stock purchase warrants, in exchange for approximately $109 million in cash, including transaction costs and the repayment of the $15.27 million balance outstanding as of June 30, 2004 under Compressco’s bank credit facility. Such amount was funded from TETRA’s available cash and from $75 million of borrowings under TETRA’s existing bank line of credit facility. The preliminary allocation of this consideration to assets and liabilities includes the following:

• Approximately $1.9 million of intangible assets separable from goodwill related to patents, customer relationships and other intangible assets with useful lives ranging from three to six years. Additional deferred taxes of $0.7 million was recorded related to these intangible assets.

-6-


• The fair value of Compressco property and equipment assets approximated its historical book value.

• Goodwill of approximately $72.5 million was recorded and reflects Compressco’s significant strategic value to TETRA, the existing assembled Compressco workforce and the synergies with TETRA’s existing businesses.

The unaudited pro forma statements of operations include the following adjustments:

(d) This adjustment reduces interest expense and reflects the repayment of Compressco’s bank credit facility and the conversion of Compressco convertible subordinated promissory notes.
