Flotek Industries, Inc. Announces 50.3% Growth in Revenue in Second Quarter 2008

HOUSTON, August 6, 2008 - Flotek Industries, Inc. (NYSE: FTK), a technology driven growth company serving the oil, gas, and mining industries, today reported results for the second quarter of 2008.

2Q 2008 Highlights vs. 2Q 2007 Highlights

• 50.3% growth in Revenue

• 40.8% increase in Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”)

• 32.7% growth in Income from Operations

• 4.8% increase in Net Income

• 4.0% increase in Diluted Earnings per Share to $0.26

Jerry D. Dumas, Sr., Chairman of the Board, CEO and President, stated, “We are extremely pleased with the second quarter performance of our Company. The marketing initiatives we have directed to the ultimate beneficiaries of our proprietary chemicals, while working in coordination with our pressure pumping customers, is resonating positively as evidenced by the sales performance of our Chemical and Logistics segment. Downhole Tool profitability is progressing as planned due to market penetration and the benefit of our strategy to move into more technological (smart iron equipment) product offerings. Management is focused on establishing greater control of SG&A costs to minimize the impact of these expenses on earnings but insure sufficient infrastructure to support the expected continued growth of Flotek.”

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2008 was $56.8 million, an increase of 50.3%, compared to $37.8 million for the second quarter of 2007. Revenue increased in all three segments due to increased drilling activity, growth in rentals and services associated with the expansion of our mud motor fleet, contributions for a full quarter from Teledrift, price increases in the Chemical and Logistics segments, and the increased acceptance of our products including our proprietary suite of specialty chemical products. Revenues from recent acquisitions accounted for approximately $10.1 million of the increase.

Income from operations for the second quarter of 2008 totaled $11.0 million, an increase of 32.7%, compared to $8.3 million for the second quarter of 2007. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased from 22.0% for the second quarter of 2007 to 19.4% for the second quarter of 2008. Gross margins increased to 46.6% in second quarter 2008 from 44.5% in second quarter 2007. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs and depreciation and amortization increased as a percentage of revenue during the second quarter of 2008. SG&A increased 71.6% from $6.8 million in second quarter 2007 to $11.6 million during the second quarter of 2008. This was primarily due to increased indirect personnel costs in our Chemicals and Logistics, Drilling Products and Corporate segment, increased professional fees, and costs associated with our increased international efforts. Depreciation and amortization was up 112.1 % from $1.6 million in second quarter of 2007 to $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2008. This increase was attributable to higher depreciation associated with acquired assets and increased capital expenditures. In addition, amortization expense increased due to the amortization of intangible assets acquired in 2007 and 2008.

Interest expense increased to $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2008 from $0.9 million in 2007. This increase is primarily attributable to higher debt levels incurred to finance acquisitions made in the last half of 2007 and Teledrift in the first quarter of 2008.

Flotek achieved a 4.8% increase in net income of $5.1 million, or $0.26 per fully diluted share for the second quarter 2008 compared to $4.9 million or $0.25 per fully diluted share for the same period in 2007.

EBITDA increased 40.8% from $10.2 million in second quarter of 2007 to $14.3 million in the second quarter of 2008.

We report our results under three segments:

• The Chemicals and Logistics segment develops, manufactures and markets specialty chemicals used in oil and gas well stimulation, acidizing, drilling, and production treatment. The segment provides bulk blending and transload services for products used in well cementing.

• The Drilling Products segment rents, inspects, manufactures and markets downhole drilling equipment for the energy, mining, water well and industrial drilling sectors.

• The Artificial Lift segment manufactures and markets artificial lift equipment which includes the Petrovalve line of beam pump components, electric submersible pumps, gas separators, valves and services to support coal bed methane production.

Chemicals and Logistics Segment

Chemicals and Logistics revenue for second quarter 2008 was $28.5 million, an increase of 34.4%, compared to $21.1 million for the same period in 2007. The growth in revenue is primarily the result of an increase in sales volume of our proprietary suite of products, particularly our biodegradable chemicals (Microemulsions). Sales of these products grew 42.9% from $14.2 million in the second quarter 2007 to $20.3 million in the second quarter 2008.

Microemulsion sales grew as a percentage of total Chemicals and Logistics revenue from 67.1% to 71.3% in the second quarter of 2008. Sooner, our production chemicals business, accounted for approximately $1.6 million of the increase in revenue.

Income from operations was $10.8 million for the second quarter 2008, an increase of 26.3%, compared to $8.6 million for the same period in 2007. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased to 38.1% compared to 40.5% in the second quarter of 2007 due to higher direct costs and indirect costs associated with the Sooner operations and our logistics business, and the expansion of R&D in the quarter.

Drilling Products Segment

Drilling Products revenue for second quarter 2008 was $24.3 million, an increase of 77.8%, compared to $13.7 million for the second quarter in 2007. Acquisitions accounted for approximately $8.6 million of this increase. Growth in rentals and services associated with the expansion of our mud motor fleet also contributed significantly to the increase.

Income from operations was $4.7 million for the second quarter 2008 or 192.2% higher than the $1.6 million for the same period in 2007. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue increased to 19.2% of revenue in the second quarter 2008 compared to 11.7% for the same quarter 2007. This increase can be attributed to the contributions from the Teledrift and CAVO acquisitions plus expansion of our rental tool operations

Artificial Lift Segment

Artificial Lift revenue increased $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2008 to $4.1 million as compared to $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2007 primarily due to increased drilling activity in the Powder River basin in Wyoming.

Income from operations increased $0.2 million, or 108.1% for the second quarter 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 due to increased volumes. Income from operations as a percentage of revenue increased to 8.2% in second quarter 2008 from 5.4% in second quarter 2007.

Corporate and Other

General and administrative expenses were $4.8 million for the second quarter of 2008 compared to $2.0 million for the second quarter 2007. Personnel costs during the second quarter of 2008 included $0.7 million of stock-based compensation expense versus $0.3 million expense during the same period in 2007.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest expense was $2.9 million for second quarter 2008 compared to $0.9 million in Q2 2007. The increase was a result of higher debt levels incurred to finance the acquisitions made in the last half of 2007 and Teledrift in the first quarter 2008.
