bear interest at 6%. The determination of when a merger is "significant" or

Key Energy Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
PART I. ITEM 1. BUSINESS.Management
The Company
Key Energy Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "Key") is a leading provider of
well services in the United States and in Argentina. As of June 30, 1997,
the Company operated a fleet of 523 well service rigs, 437 fluid hauling and
other trucks, and nine drilling rigs (including 16 workover rigs, six
trucks, and 3 drilling rigs in Argentina). As of June 30, 1997, Key's well
service and workover rig fleet and fluid hauling and other truck fleet were
the second largest and largest fleets, respectively, onshore the continental
United States. The Company operates in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma,
Michigan, the Appalachian Basin and Argentina. The Company generallyfollowing table provides a full range of maintenance and workover services to major and
independent oil and gas companies in all of its operating regions. In
addition to maintenance and workover services, Key also provides services
which include the completion of newly drilled wells, the recompletion of
existing wells (including horizontal recompletions) and the plugging and
abandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives. Other services
include oil field fluid transportation, storage and disposal services, frac
tank rentals, fishing and rental tools, wireline services, air drilling and
hot oiling. In addition, the Company is engaged in contract drilling in West
Texas and Argentina and owns and produces oil and natural gas in the Permian
Basin.
The Company conducts operations through four wholly-owned subsidiaries:
Yale E. Key, Inc. ("Yale E. Key"); WellTech Eastern, Inc. ("WellTech
Eastern"); Odessa Exploration Incorporated ("Odessa Exploration"); and
Key Energy Drilling, Inc. d/b/a Clint Hurt Drilling ("Clint Hurt"). In
addition, Key operates in Argentina through its 63% ownership (wholly-
ownedinformation as of July 1, 1997) of Servicios WellTech, S.A. ("Servicios").
WellTech Eastern operates through two divisions: WellTech Mid-Continent
Division and WellTech Eastern Division. Yale E. Key, WellTech Eastern
and Servicios provide oil and gas well services, and Servicios owns
contract drilling rigs. Odessa Exploration is engaged in the production
of oil and natural gas and Clint Hurt provides contract oil and gas well
drilling services in the Permian Basin of West Texas.
Subsequent Events
Subsequent to June 30,October 27, 1997 the Company purchased the remaining 37%
interest in Servicios and completed the acquisition of four well servicing
companies which collectively operate 83 well service and workover rigs
(including six in Argentina), three drilling rigs in Argentina, and 75 fluid
hauling and other trucks. The Company has also announced, subsequent to June
30, 1997, five acquisitions of well service companies and one acquisition of
a drilling company which collectively operate 153 well service rigs, 11
drilling rigs, 91 fluid hauling and other trucks and a fishing and rental
tool business. These six announced acquisitions are currently pending and
assuming their completion, the Company will have expanded its operating
presence into markets it previously did not serve, including the Rocky
Mountains, the Four Corners area, the Hugoton Basin, Northern Louisiana and
Arkansas. Upon completion of these pending acquisitions, Key's operations
will include 764 well service and workover rigs, 603 fluid hauling and other
trucks, 23 drilling rigs and numerous ancillary operations. Following the
closing of these acquisitions, the Company believes that, based upon the
number of active well service rigs and fluid hauling and other trucks, that
it would operate at that time, it will be the largest well service provider
onshore the continental United States and the second largest well service
provider in Argentina.
Growth Strategy
The domestic well service rig and production service industry has
historically been highly fragmented, characterized by a large number of
smaller companies which have competed effectively on a local basis in
- 3 -
terms of pricing and the quality of services offered. In recent years,
many major and independent oil and gas companies have placed increasing
emphasis upon not only pricing, but also on safety records and quality
management systems of, and the breadth of services offered by, their
vendors, including well servicing contractors. This market environment,
which requires significant expenditures by smaller companies to meet
these increasingly rigorous standards, has forced many smaller well
servicing companies to sell their operations to larger competitors. As
a result, the industry has seen high levels of consolidation among the
competing contractors.
Over the past eighteen months, Key has been a the leading consolidator
of this industry, completing twenty-three acquisitions of well
servicing operations (twenty-eight including pending transactions).
This consolidation has led to reduced fragmentation in the market and
has led to more predictable demand for well services for the Company
and its competitors. Key's management structure is decentralized, which
allows for rapid integration of acquisitions and the retention of
strong local identities of many of the acquired businesses. As a result
of these and other factors, the Company has developed a growth strategy
to: (i) identify, negotiate and consummate additional acquisitions of
complementary well servicing operations, including rigs, trucking and
other ancillary services; (ii) fully-integrate acquisitions into the
Company's decentralized organizational structure and thereby attempt to
maximize operating margins; (iii) expand business lines and services
offered by the Company in existing areas of operations; and (iv) extend
the geographic scope and operating environments for the Company's
operations.
Oil Field Services
The Company provides a full range of well service rig services, oil
field liquid services and other production services necessary to
maintain and workover producing oil and gas wells through its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, Yale E. Key and WellTech Eastern. These
services also include the completion of newly drilled wells, the
recompletion of existing wells (including horizontal recompletions) and
the plugging and abandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives.
Other services include oil field fluid transportation, storage and
disposal services, frac tank rentals, fishing and rental tools,
wireline services, air drilling and hot oiling. The Company has more
than 750 customers which are either major oil and gas companies or
independent producers seeking to optimize performance of oil and gas
wells. Although the mix of oil and gas wells serviced varies by
particular markets, approximately two-thirds of the Company's overall
business is attributable to oil wells. As of June 30, 1997, of the
Company's 523 well service and workover rigs, 273 operate in West Texas
and New Mexico, 161 in Oklahoma and East Texas, 79 in Michigan and the
Appalachian Basin, and ten in Argentina.
Well Service Rig Services. The Company utilizes its fleet to
perform four major categories of service to oil and gas
operators including:
Maintenance Services. Maintenance services are required on producing
oil and gas wells to ensure efficient and continuous operation. These
services consist of routine mechanical repairs necessary to maintain
production from the well, such as repairing parted sucker rods or
defective down-hole pumps in an oil well, or replacing defective tubing
in an oil or gas well. The Company provides the well service rigs,
equipment and crews for these maintenance services. Many of these well
service rigs also have pumps and tanks (a workover package) that can be
used for circulating fluids into and out of the well. Maintenance jobs
are often performed on a series of wells in proximity to each other and
typically take less than 48 hours per well.
Maintenance services are generally required throughout the life of a
well. The need for these services does not directly depend on the level
of drilling activity and is generally independent of short-term
fluctuations
- 4 -
in oil and gas prices. Accordingly, maintenance services are generally the
most stable type of well service rig activity. The general level of
maintenance, however, is affected by changes in the total number of
producing oil and gas wells in the Company's geographic service areas.
Workover Services. In addition to periodic maintenance, producing oil and
gas wells occasionally require major repairs or modifications, called
"workovers." Workover services include extensions of existing wells to drain
new formations either through deepening well bores or through drilling of
horizontal laterals. In less extensive workovers, the Company's rigs are
used to seal off depleted zones in existing well bores and access previously
bypassed productive zones. The Company's workover rigs are also used to
convert producing wells to injection wells for enhanced recovery operations.
Workover services include major subsurface repairs such as casing repair or
replacement, recovery of tubing and removal of foreign objects in the well
bore. These extensive workover operations are normally performed by a well
service rig with a workover package , which may include rotary drilling
equipment, mud pumps, mud tanks and blowout preventers depending upon the
particular type of workover operation. Most of the Company's well service
rigs are designed for and can be equipped to perform complex workover
operations. A workover may last from a few days to several weeks.
The demand for workover services is more sensitive to expectations relating
to and changes in oil and gas prices than the demand for maintenance
services, but not as sensitive as the demand for completion services. When
oil and gas prices are low, there is little incentive to perform workovers
on wells to increase production and well operators tend to defer such
expenditures. As oil and gas prices increase, the level of workover activity
tends to increase as operators seek to increase production by enhancing the
efficiency of their wells.
Completion Services. Completion services prepare a newly drilled well for
production. The completion process may involve selectively perforating the
well casing to access producing zones, stimulating and testing these zones
and installing downhole equipment. The Company provides a well service and
workover package rig to assist in this completion process. Newly drilled
wells are frequently completed by a well service rig so that an operator can
minimize the use of a higher cost drilling rig. The completion process
typically requires a few days to several weeks, depending on the nature and
type of the completion, and generally requires additional auxiliary
equipment which the Company provides for an additional fee.
The demand for well completion services is directly related to drilling
activity levels, which are highly sensitive to expectations relating to and
changes in oil and gas prices. During periods of weak drilling demand,
drilling contractors frequently price well completion work competitively
compared to a well service rig so that the drilling rig stays on the job.
Thus, excess drilling capacity will serve to reduce the amount of completion
work available to the well servicing industry.
Plugging and Abandonment Services. Well service rigs and workover equipment
are also used in the plugging and abandonment of oil and gas wells no
longer capable of producing in economic quantities. The demand for oil and
gas does not significantly affect the demand for well plugging services.
Liquid Services. The Company provides vacuum truck services, frac tank
rentals and salt water disposal services which together provide an
integrated mix of liquid services to well site customers.
Other Production Services. The Company provides production services, which
include hot oiler unit services, pipeline installation and testing services,
slickline wire-line services and fishing and rental tool services.

Shallow Contract Drilling Services
The Company, through Clint Hurt, owns and operates six drilling rigs
and provides contract drilling services for major and independent oil
companies, primarily in West Texas. On August 4, 1997, the Company
announced it had signed a letter of intent to acquire BRW Drilling,
Inc. ("BRW") for approximately $15.0 million in cash. BRW operates 7
drilling rigs and related equipment in the Permian Basin of West Texas.
The closing of the BRW acquisition is expected upon negotiation of a
definitive agreement, completion of the Company's standard due
diligence and receipt of regulatory clearances, if any are required.
Upon completion, the BRW acquisition will be combined with Clint Hurt's
drilling operations in the Permian Basin of West Texas to form a
thirteen rig shallow drilling operation. The Company entered the land
drilling business in March 1995 with the acquisition of four drilling
rigs from an independent third party and, as the result of the WellTech
merger, acquired two additional land drilling rigs. The rigs are
capable of drilling up to 10,000 feet.
Production
The Company is engaged in the production of oil and natural gas in the
Permian Basin area of West Texas through its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Odessa Exploration. Odessa Exploration acquires and manages interests
in producing oil and gas properties for its own account and for
drilling partnerships it sponsors. Odessa Exploration acquires
producing oil and gas wells and related properties from major and
independent producers and, subsequently, either reworks the acquired
wells to increase production or forms drilling ventures for additional
development wells. Odessa Exploration operates oil and gas wells on
behalf of over 250 working interest owners as well as for its own
account.
Foreign Operations
The Company provides oil field services in Argentina through its 63%
ownership (wholly-owned as of July 1, 1997) of Servicios. As of June
30, 1997, Servicios owned and operated ten well servicing rigs and
three drilling rigs in Argentina (which are currently idle and
undergoing refurbishment). On August 1, 1997, the Company completed the
acquisition of Kenting Holdings (Argentina) S.A. ("Kenting") for $10.1
million in cash. The Kenting assets included six oilwell service rigs,
three drilling rigs and related equipment in Argentina. The Kenting
assets are being operated by Servicios and are expected to more than
double the size of Servicios' operations based on revenues.
COMPETITION AND OTHER EXTERNAL FACTORS
Despite a significant amount of consolidation having occurred, the
domestic well service rig and production service industry is still
highly fragmented and includes a number of companies that are capable
of competing effectively in all or part of the Company's well servicing
markets. Nonetheless, the Company believes that it is competitive in
terms of pricing, performance, equipment, safety, availability of
equipment to meet customer needs and availability of experienced,
skilled personnel in those regions in which it operates.
In the well servicing market, an important competitive factor in
establishing and maintaining long-term customer relationships is having
an experienced, skilled and well trained work force. In recent years,
many of the Company's larger customers have placed emphasis not only on
pricing, but also on safety records and quality management systems of
contractors. The Company believes that such factors will be of
increased importance in the future. The Company has directed
substantial resources toward employee safety and training programs, as
well as its employee review process. While the Company's efforts in
these areas are not unique, many competitors, particularly small
contractors, have not undertaken similar training programs for their
employees. Management believes that the Company's safety record and
reputation for quality equipment and service are among the best in the
industry.
- 6 -
The Company acquires oil and gas properties from independent and major oil
companies and competes with other independent and integrated oil companies
for the acquisition of these properties. The Company also competes with
other local oil and gas drilling contractors, as well as national oil and
gas drilling companies. As with oil field services, the need for drilling
oil and gas wells fluctuates, in part, based on the price of, and demand
for, oil and natural gas.
The Company serves over 750 customers in West Texas, East Texas, New Mexico,
Oklahoma, Michigan, the Appalachian Basin and Argentina with its two largest
customers providing 13% and 7%, of total Company revenue during fiscal 1997.
The need for oilfield services fluctuates, in part, in relation to the
demand for oil and natural gas. As demand for those commodities increases,
service and maintenance requirements increase as oil and natural gas
producers attempt to maximize the producing efficiency of their wells in a
higher priced environment.
EMPLOYEES
As of June 30, 1997, the Company employed 3,175 persons (3,047 in well
service operations, 12 in oil and gas production, 105 in contract drilling
operations and 11 in corporate). None of the Company's employees are
represented by a labor union or collective bargaining agent. The Company has
experienced no work stoppages associated with labor disputes or grievances
and considers its relations with its employees to be satisfactory.
REGULATIONS
The oilfield service operations and the oil and gas production and drilling
activities of the Company are subject to various local, state and federal
laws and regulations intended to protect the environment. The Company's
operations routinely involve the handling of waste materials, some of which
are classified as hazardous substances. Consequently, the regulations
applicable to the Company's operations include those with
respect to containment, disposal and controlling the discharge of any hazardous oil
field waste and other non-hazardous waste material into the environment,
requiring removal and cleanup under certain circumstances, or otherwise
relating to the protection of the environment. Laws and regulations
protecting the environment have become more stringent in recent years, and
may in certain circumstances impose "strict liability," rendering a party
liable for environmental damage without regard to negligence or fault on the
part of such party. Such laws and regulations may expose the Company to
liability for the conduct of, or conditions caused by, others, or for acts
of the Company which were in compliance with all applicable laws at the
times such acts were performed. Management of the Company believes that it
is in substantial compliance with all material federal, state and local
regulations as they relate to the environment. Although the Company has
incurred certain costs in complying with environmental laws and regulations,
such amounts have not been material to the Company's financial condition
during the three past fiscal years.
Management believes that the Company is in substantial compliance with all
known material local, state and federal safety guidelines and regulations.
In order to comply with such safety guidelines and regulations and increase
employee awareness of on-the-job safety, the Company employs eight safety
officers. The Company also has a safety training and education center which
is used by it for continued safety training and awareness.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION.
The following discussion provides information to assist in
the understanding of the Company's financial condition and results of
operations. It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
related notes appearing elsewhere in this report.
Overview
The Company experienced its most successful year during fiscal 1997. All
regions have increased equipment use because of higher oil and gas prices,
increased emphasis on horizontal drilling, lower production costs for major and
independent oil and gas producers, renewed focus on domestic production and the
effects of several new alliances the Company entered into with its customers.
Fluctuations in well servicing activity have had a strong correlation with
fluctuations in oil and gas prices. If oil and gas prices were to drop
significantly from current levels, the Company would expect a decrease in demand
for drilling and services which would negatively affect the Company's operating
performance. The Company seeks to minimize the effects of such fluctuations on
its operations and financial condition through diversification of services,
entry into new markets and customer alliances.
FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 VERSUS FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
Results of Operations
Operating Income
The Company
Revenues for the year ended June 30, 1997 increased $97,152,000, or 146%,
from $66,478,000 in fiscal 1996 to $163,630,000 in fiscal 1997, while net income
for fiscal 1997 increased $5,512,000, or 154% , from $3,586,000 in fiscal 1996
to $9,098,000 in fiscal 1997. The increase was primarily due to oilwell service
acquisitions throughout the year, increased oil and gas revenues from Odessa
Exploration, and increased oil and gas drilling revenues.
Oilfield Services
Oilfield service revenues for the year ended June 30, 1997 increased
$88,452,000, or 158%, from $55,933,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 to
$144,385,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase is primarily
attributable to acquisitions throughout the year and higher equipment use
resulting from an increase in demand for oilfield services.
Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production
Revenues from oil and gas activities increased $4,005,000, or 96%, from
$4,175,000 during the year ended June 30, 1996 to $8,180,000 for the current
year. The increase was primarily the result of increased production of oil and
natural gas from several wells that were drilled and began production during
fiscal 1997, higher oil and natural gas prices for fiscal 1997, and the April
1996 purchase of $6.9 million of oil and gas properties from an unrelated third
party. Of the total $8,180,000 of revenues for the year ended June 30, 1997,
approximately $6,975,000 was from the sale of oil and gas and $1,205,000
represented primarily administrative fee income.
- 12 -
Oil and Natural Gas Well Drilling
Revenues from oil and gas well drilling activities increased $3,768,000, or
61%, from $6,188,000 during the year ended June 30, 1996 to $9,956,000 for the
year ended June 30, 1997. The increase was primarily the result of increased
oilwell drilling activity and an increase in the Company's pricing structure.
Operating Expenses
Oilfield Services
Oilfield service expenses for the year ended June 30, 1997 increased
$59,629,000, or 146%, from $40,737,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 to
$100,366,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase was due primarily to
acquisitions made throughout the fiscal year and the increased demand for
oilfield services. In addition, the Company has continued to expand its
services, offering fishing tools, blow-out preventers and oilwell frac
tanks.
Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production
Expenses related to oil and gas activities increased $1,680,000, or 124%,
from $1,350,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 to $3,030,000 for the year
ended June 30, 1997. The increase was primarily the result costs associated with
several oil and natural gas wells that were drilled and began producting during
fiscal 1997 and the April 1996 purchase of $6.9 million in oil and gas
properties.
Oil and Natural Gas Well Drilling
Expenses related to oil and gas well drilling activities increased
$3,125,000, or 62%, from $5,030,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 to
$8,155,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997. The increase was primarily the
result of increased revenues.
Depreciation and Depletion Expense
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased $6,719,000, or
143%, from $4,701,000 for fiscal 1996 to $11,420,000 for fiscal 1997. The
increase is primarily due to oilfield service depreciation expense, which is the
result of increased oilfield service capital expenditures for the current period
versus the prior period and the acquisitions completed throughout fiscal 1997.
In addition, depletion expense increased for the period due to the increase in
the production of oil and natural gas.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $11,914,000, or 180%, from
$6,608,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996 to $18,522,000 for the year ended
June 30, 1997. The increase was primarily attributable to oilfield service
acquisitions throughout the fiscal year.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $5,058,000, or 204%, from $2,477,000 for fiscal
1996 to $7,535,000 in fiscal 1997. The increase was primarily the result of debt
incurred in connection with acquisitions completed throughout fiscal 1997.
- 13 -
Income Taxes
Income tax expense increased $3,612,000, or 191%, from $1,888,000 in income
tax expense for fiscal 1996 to $5,500,000 for fiscal 1997. The increase in
income taxes is primarily due to the increase in operating income. However, the
Company does not expect to be required to remit a significant amount of the
$5,500,000 in total federal income taxes for fiscal year 1997 because of the
availability of net operating loss carryforwards, accelerated depreciation and
drilling tax credits.
Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $4,965,000, or 70%,
from $7,121,000 during fiscal 1996 to $2,156,000 for fiscal 1997. The decrease
is attributable primarily to increases in accounts receivable, decreases in
accounts payable and accrued expenses, but was partially offset by increases in
depreciation and net income.
Net cash used in investing activities increased $68,511,000, or 506%, from
$13,551,000 for fiscal 1996 to $82,062,000 for fiscal 1997. The increase is
primarily the result of increased capital expenditures for oilwell service
operations and oilwell service acquisitions.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $117,399,000 for fiscal 1997
as compared to $9,366,000 for fiscal 1996, which represents an increase of
$108,033,000, or 1,153%. The increase, which is partially offset by repayments
of long-term debt, is primarily the result of proceeds from the existing
Debentures and commercial paper during the current fiscal year.
- 14 -
FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 VERSUS FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
Operating Income
The Company
Revenues for the year ended June 30, 1996 increased $21,789,000, or 49%,
from $44,689,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995 to $66,478,000 for the year
ended June 30, 1996, while net income increased $1,408,000, or 65%, from
$2,178,000 in fiscal 1995 to $3,586,000 in fiscal 1996. The increase in revenues
was primarily due to the acquisition of Clint Hurt Drilling in March 1995, whose
operations were only included for one quarter in the 1995 year-end results,
increased oil and gas revenues from Odessa Exploration and increased oilwell
service equipment use and the acquisition of WellTech. The increase in fiscal
year 1996 net income over fiscal year 1995 net income was partially attributable
to the inclusion of Clint Hurt Drilling and the acquisition of WellTech Eastern,
but also was a result of an increase in oilwell service equipment use and a
decrease in total consolidated Company costs and expenses as a percentage of
total revenues.
Oilfield Services
Oilfield service revenues for the year ended June 30, 1996 increased
$15,828,000, or 40%, from $40,105,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995 to
$55,933,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase in revenues was
primarily attributable to higher equipment use resulting from an increase in
demand for oilfield services and the acquisition of WellTech Eastern, whose
operating results were included for the period of March 26, 1996 to June 30,
1996.
Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production
Revenues from oil and gas activities increased $1,841,000, or 79%, from
$2,334,000 during the year ended June 30, 1995 to $4,175,000 for the year ended
June 30, 1996. The increase in revenues was primarily the result of increased
production of oil and natural gas from several wells that were drilled during
1996, higher oil and natural gas prices during 1995 and the April 1996 purchase
of $6.9 million of oil and gas properties from an unrelated third party.
Of the total $4,175,000 of revenues for the year ended June 30, 1996,
approximately $3,554,000 was from the sale of oil and gas and the remaining
$621,000 was attributable primarily to administrative fee income and other
miscellaneous income.
Oil and Natural Gas Well Drilling
Oil and natural gas well drilling operations are performed by Clint Hurt
Drilling which was acquired in March 1995. Comparable numbers for the prior year
are, therefore, not available. Revenues for the year ended June 30, 1996 were
$6,188,000.
Operating Expenses
Oilfield Services
Oilfield service expenses for the year ended June 30, 1996 increased
$10,145,000, or 33%, from $30,592,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995 to
$40,737,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The increase was due primarily to
the acquisition of WellTech Eastern on March 26, 1996, and an increased demand
for oilfield services.
- 15 -
Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production
Expenses related to oil and gas activities increased $593,000, or 78%, from
$757,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995 to $1,350,000 for the year ended June
30, 1996. The increase was primarily the result of increased production of oil
and natural gas from several wells that were drilled during fiscal 1996 and the
April 1996 purchase of $6.9 million in oil and gas properties.
Oil and Natural Gas Well Drilling
Clint Hurt Drilling was acquired in March 1995. Comparable numbers for the
prior year are, therefore, not available. Expenses for the year ended June 30,
1996 were $5,030,000.
Depreciation and Depletion Expense
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased $1,963,000, or
72%, from $2,738,000 for fiscal 1995 to $4,701,000 for fiscal 1996. The increase
was primarily due to oilfield service depreciation expense, which resulted from
an increase in oilfield service capital expenditures for the 1996 period versus
the prior period and the acquisition of WellTech and Clint Hurt. In addition,
depletion expense increased for the period due to the increase in the production
of oil and natural gas.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $2,256,000, or 52%, from
$4,352,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995 to $6,608,000 for the year ended
June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of
contract drilling assets, the subsequent inclusion of general and administrative
expenses related to contract drilling operations and the acquisition of WellTech
Eastern.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $999,000, or 68%, from $1,478,000 for fiscal
1995 to $2,477,000 for fiscal 1996. The increase was primarily the result of
acquisitions and the addition of certain oil and gas properties that were
financed with proceeds from borrowings.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for fiscal 1996 increased $738,000, or 64%, from
$1,150,000 in fiscal 1995 to $1,888,000 in fiscal 1996. The increase was
primarily due to an increase in operating income. However, the Company was not
required to remit a significant amount of the $1,888,000 in total federal income
taxes for fiscal year 1996 because of the availability of net operating loss
carryforwards, accelerated depreciation and drilling tax credits.
Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $3,863,000, or 119%,
from $3,258,000 during fiscal 1995 to $7,121,000 for fiscal 1996. The increase
was attributable primarily to increases in net income.
Net cash used in investing activities increased $6,397,000, or 89%, from
$7,154,000 for fiscal 1995 to $13,551,000 for fiscal 1996. The increase was
primarily the result of increased capital expenditures for oil and gas
properties and costs associated with the acquisition of WellTech. This increase
was partially offset by a decrease in oilfield service capital expenditures.
- 16 -
Net cash provided by financing activities increased $5,368,000, or 134%,
from $3,998,000 in fiscal 1995 to $9,366,000 in fiscal 1996. The increase is
primarily the result of increased principal payments during fiscal 1996. This
increase in principal payments was somewhat offset by an increase in proceeds
from long-term debt during fiscal 1996 as the result of the purchase of oil and
gas properties by Odessa Exploration and the acquisition of WellTech.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's cash and cash equivalents increased by $37.5 million for the
year ended June 30, 1997 from $4.2 million as of June 30, 1996 to $41.7 million
as of June 30, 1997. This increase was primarily the result of proceeds from
the Bank Credit Agreement.
The Company has projected $20 million for oilfield service capital
expenditures for fiscal 1998 as compared to $15.1 million and $5.2 million in
fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively. Odessa Exploration has projected outlays of
approximately $10 million in development costs for fiscal 1998, as compared to
$8.2 million and $9.8 million in fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively. Clint Hurt
Drilling has forecast approximately $2 million for oil and gas drilling capital
expenditures for fiscal 1998, primarily for improvements to existing equipment
and machinery, as compared to $1.5 million for fiscal 1997 and $598,000 in
fiscal 1996. The Company expects to finance these capital expenditures and
development costs using cash flows from operations and available credit. The
Company believes that its cash flows and, to the extent required, borrowings
under the Bank Credit Agreement, will be sufficient to fund such
expenditures.
Debt
In June 1997, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement (the "Bank
Credit Agreement") with PNC Bank, N.A. ("PNC"), as administrative agent, Norwest
Bank Texas, N.A., as collateral agent, Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc., as
advisor, arranger and syndication agent and the lenders named therein pursuant
to which the lenders agreed to make available to the Compaany a five-year
revolving credit facilty in the amount of $135 million and a seven-year term
loan facility in the amount of $120 million. Up to $10 million of letters of
credit may be issued pursuant to the Bank Credit Agreement. The amount of
letters of credit outstanding from time to time reduces the amount of revolving
credit loans which may be outstanding.
Revolving credit loans incurred pursuant to the Bank Credit Agreement will
bear interest, at the Company's option, at PNC's base rate plus 1.00% or LIBOR
plus 2.25% and term loans will bear interest, at the Company's option, at PNC's
base rate plus 1.75% or LIBOR plus 2.75%. After September 30, 1997, the margin
applicable to revolving credit loans will fluctuate from time to time between
0.25% and 1.25% with respect to base rate loans and between 1.50% and 2.50% for
LIBOR based loans. Such fluctuations will be based on the Company's ratio of
consolidated total debt (net of cash in excess of $5 million) to a pro forma
calculation of consolidated earnings before interest expense, taxes and
depreciation, depletion and amortization.
The Company used the proceeds from the Bank Credit Agreement to: (i) repay
existing debt; (ii) make additional acquisitions and capital expenditures; and
(iii) provide working capital. Long-term debt that was repaid with proceeds from
the Bank Credit Agreement in June 1997 included all debt with CIT Group/Credit
Finance, Inc. of approximately $54.3 million and all bank debt associated with
Odessa Exploration, previously with Norwest Bank Texas, N.A., of approximately
$2.1 million.

Impact of SFAS 121
As of July 1, 1996, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 - Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of ("SFAS 121"). Consequently,
the Company reviews its long-lived assets to be held and used, including oil and
gas properties accounted for under the successful efforts method of accounting,
whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of those
assets may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are to be
accounted for at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell
when management has committed to a plan to dispose of the assets. All companies,
including successful efforts oil and gas companies, are required to adopt SFAS
121 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. In order to determine
whether an impairment had occurred, the Company estimated the expected future
cash flows of its income producing equipment and oil and gas properties and
compared such future cash flows to the carrying amount of the asset to determine
if the carrying amount was recoverable. Based on this process, no writedown in
the carrying amount of the Company's property was necessary at June 30, 1997.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued the following
accounting standards which will be adopted by the Company in the future.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128") - Earnings
per Share, is effective for periods ending on or after December 15, 1997. FAS
128 replaces the presentation of primary earnings per share ("EPS") with the
presentation of basic EPS, which excludes dilution and is computed by dividing
income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding for the period. SFAS 128 also requires dual presentation of
basic EPS and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement and requires a
reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of basic EPS and diluted
EPS.The Company will adopt SFAS 128 for the quarter ended December 31, 1997.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130") -
Reporting Comprehensive Income, is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods
provided for comparative purposes is required. The Company will adopt SFAS 130
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131") -
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, is
effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15,
1997. SFAS 131 need not be applied to interim financial statements in the
initial year of its application. However, comparative information for interim
periods in the initial year of application is to be reported in the financial
statements for interim periods in the second year of application. The Company
will adopt SFAS 131 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999.
Management believes the adoption of SFAS 128, SFAS 130 and SFAS 131 will
not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations of
the Company.
Impact of Inflation on Operations
Management is of the opinion that inflation has not had a significant
impact on the Company's business.

Key Energy Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company
Key Energy Group, Inc. herein after referred to as the "Company" or "Key",
was organized in April 1977, and commenced operations in July 1978. Results of
operations for the twelve months ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 include the
Company's oilfield service operations conducted by its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Yale E. Key, Inc., ("Yale E. Key"), the Company's oil and gas exploration and
production wholly-owned subsidiary, Odessa Exploration Incorporated ("Odessa
Exploration"), and the Company's oil and gas well drilling operations conducted
by the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Key Energy Drilling, Inc. d/b/a Clint
Hurt Drilling ("Clint Hurt Drilling"). Clint Hurt Drilling was acquired in March
of 1995. Also included in the results of operations for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1997 and approximately three months for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1996 are those operating results from the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary;
WellTech Eastern, Inc. ("WellTech Eastern") which currently holds the assets
acquired in the merger with WellTech, Inc. ("WellTech"), on March 26, 1996 (see
Note 2). WellTech Eastern operates through two divisions; the WellTech
Mid-Continent Division and the WellTech Eastern Division. In addition, as a
result of the Welltech acquisition, the Company acquired a 63% ownership in
Servicios WellTech, S.A. ("Servicios"), an Argentinean corporation. Servicios
conducts oilfield services operations in Argentina and is accounted for using
the consolidation with a minority interest method.
Basis of Presentation
The Company's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company
transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accounting policies
presented below have been followed in preparing the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. The Company's ownership of less than 50% owned entities
are accounted for by the cost or equity methods, depending on the Company's
ownership percentage.
Estimates and Uncertainties
Preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities and disclosures 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.
Inventories
Inventories, which consist primarily of oilwell service parts and supplies,
are held for use in the operations of Key and are valued at the lower of average
cost or market.
Property and Equipment
The Company provides for depreciation and amortization of non-oil and gas
properties using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful
lives of the assets:

Description Years
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Oilfield service equipment 3 - 20
Oil and gas well drilling equipment 3 - 15
Motor vehicles 3 - 7
Furniture and equipment 3 - 10
Buildings and improvements 10 - 40
Gas processing facilities 10
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Upon disposition or retirement of property and equipment, the cost and
related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the gain or
loss thereon, if any, is included in the results of operations.
Odessa Exploration utilizes the successful efforts method of accounting for
its oil and gas properties. Under this method, all costs associated with
productive wells and nonproductive development wells are capitalized, while
nonproductive exploration costs and geological and geophysical costs (if any),
are expensed. Capitalized costs relating to proved properties are depleted using
the unit-of-production method. Upon disposition, the carrying amounts of
properties sold or otherwise disposed of and the related allowance for depletion
are eliminated from the accounts and any gain/loss is included in results of
operations.
Gas Balancing
Deferred income associated with gas balancing is accounted for on the
entitlements method and represents amounts received for gas sold under gas
balancing arrangements in excess of Odessa Exploration's interest in properties
covered by such agreements. Odessa Exploration had deferred income associated
with gas balancing of approximately $155,000, $198,000 and $253,000 as of June
30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Environmental
The Company is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental
laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, regulate the
discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Company to
remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of
petroleum or chemical substances at various sites. Environmental expenditures
are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit.
Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and
that have no future economic benefits are expensed. Liabilities for expenditures
of a noncapital nature are recorded when environmental assessment and/or
remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated.
Other Assets and Goodwill
At June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, other assets consisted primarily of
goodwill, capitalized debt issuance costs and security and escrow deposits from
Key's workers' compensation retrospective insurance program, in addition to an
interest, (approximately 13%), in an insurance company (the insurance company is
affiliated with Key's workers' compensation carrier).

Key Energy Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (continued)
At June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Company classified as goodwill the
cost in excess of fair value of the net tangible assets acquired in purchase
transactions. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten to
twenty-five years. Management continually evaluates whether events or
circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining useful life of goodwill
may warrant revision or the remaining balance of goodwill may not be
recoverable. Goodwill amortization expense totaled $622,000 for fiscal 1997 and
$100,000 for fiscal 1996 and $100,000 for fiscal 1995. Debt issuance cost
amortization expense totaled $344,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 and is
amortized over the term of the applicable debt.
Earnings per Share
Primary earnings per common share are determined by dividing net earnings
applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares
actually outstanding during the year and common equivalent shares resulting from
the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants (if any) using the treasury
stock method, except in periods with reported losses as the inclusion of common
stock equivalents would be antidilutive. Fully diluted earnings per common share
are based on the increased number of shares that would be outstanding assuming
conversion of dilutive outstanding convertible securities using the "as if
converted" method.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes based upon Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"). Under
SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance for deferred tax
assets is recognized when it is "more likely than not" that the benefit of
deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company and its eligible subsidiaries file a consolidated U. S. federal
income tax return. Certain subsidiaries that are consolidated for financial
reporting purposes are not eligible to be included in the consolidated U. S.
federal income tax return and separate provisions for income taxes have been
determined for these entities or groups of entities.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of temporary cash investments
and trade receivables. The Company restricts investment of temporary cash
investments to financial institutions with high credit standing and by policy
limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. The
Company's customer base consists primarily of multi-national, foreign national
and independent oil and natural gas producers. See Note 12 for additional
information regarding customers which accounted for more than 10% of
consolidated revenues. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
customers and generally does not require collateral on its trade receivables.
Such credit risk is considered by management to be limited due to the large
number of customers comprising the Company's customer base. The Company
maintains reserves for potential credit losses, and such losses have been within
management's expectations.

Impact of SFAS 121
On July 1, 1996, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 - Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of ("SFAS 121"). This Statement
requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Adoption of this Statement
did not have an impact on the Company's financial position, results of
operations, or liquidity.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25"). Accordingly, the company
has only adopted the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123"). See
Note 8 for the pro forma disclosures of compensation expense determined under
the fair-value provisions of SFAS 123.
Cash Flows
For cash flow purposes, the Company considers all unrestricted highly
liquid investments with less than a three month maturity when purchased as cash
equivalents.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 1996 and 1995
consolidated financial statements to conform to the fiscal 1997 presentation.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued the following
accounting standards which will be adopted by the Company in the future.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128") - Earnings
per Share, is effective for periods ending on or after December 15, 1997. FAS
128 replaces the presentation of primary earnings per share ("EPS") with the
presentation of basic EPS, which excludes dilution and is computed by dividing
income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding for the period. SFAS 128 also requires dual presentation of
basic EPS and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement and requires a
reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of basic EPS and diluted
EPS.The Company will adopt SFAS 128 for the quarter ended December 31, 1997.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130") -
Reporting Comprehensive Income, is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods
provided for comparative purposes is required. The Company will adopt SFAS 130
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131") -
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, is
effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15,
1997. SFAS 131 need not be applied to interim financial statements in the
initial year of its application. However, comparative information for interim
periods in the initial year of application is to be reported in the financial
statements for interim periods in the second year of application. The Company
will adopt SFAS 131 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999.
- 27 -
Key Energy Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (continued)
Management believes the adoption of SFAS 128, SFAS 130 and SFAS 131 will
not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations of
the Company.
Impact of Inflation on Operations
Although in our complex environment it is extremely difficult to make an
accurate assessment of the impact of inflation on the Company's operations,
management is of the opinion that inflation has not had a significant impact on
its business.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Various suits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business are

$133,000 for potential suits and claims.
During 1995, the Company entered into employment agreements with certain of

known by the Company or the applicable officer. In addition to providing a base salary for
each officer, the employment agreements provide for severance payments for each
officer varying from 12 to 24 monthsown more than 5% of the officers base salary. The current

total approximately $800,000.
5. LONG-TERM DEBT
On June 6, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Bank Credit
Agreement") with PNC Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Norwest Bank Texas,
N.A., as collateral agent. Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc., as advisor, arrangeroutstanding Common Stock; (ii)
each Director and syndication agent and the lenders named thereas pursuant to which the
lenders provided a $255 million credit facility, consisting of a $120 million
seven-year term loan and a $135 million five-year revolver. The interest rate,
on the term loan, is LIBOR plus 2.75 percent and the interest rate on the
revolver varies based on the LIBOR and the levelexecutive officer of the Company's indebtedness
and is currently LIBOR plus 2.25 percent. The Company used the proceeds from the
facility to: (i) repay existing bank debt; (ii) make additional acquisitions and
capital expenditures;Company; and (iii) provide working capital. In addition, the credit
facility provides, under certain conditions, for the repurchase of a portion of
the Company's outstanding common stock in the open market from time to time. In
connection with the credit facility, the company incurredby all Directors
and capitalized
$4,979,000 of debt issuance costs. These costs are being amortized over the life
of the credit facility. The credit facility contains certain restrictive
covenants and requires certain financial ratios.
Long-term debt which was repaid with proceeds from the Agreement in June
1997 included all debt with CIT Group/Credit Finance, Inc. ("CIT") of
approximately $54.3 million and all bank debt associated with Odessa
Exploration, previously with Norwest Bank Texas, N.A. ("Norwest") of
approximately $2.1 million.
In July 1996, the Company completed the offering of $52,000,000 7%
convertible subordinated debentures due 2003 (the "Debentures"). In August 1996,
the interest rate on the Debentures was increased to 7 1/2%. As the result of
the Company's purchase of the remaining 37% ownership in Servicios, the interest
rate was reduced to 7% in July of 1997. The offering was a private offering
pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. Proceeds from the
offering were used to substantially repay existing long-term debt (approximately
$35.2 million). In connection with the offering of the Debentures, the Company
capitalized and incurred $2,410,000 of debt issuance costs. These costs are
being amortized over the life of the Debentures. The Debenture contains certain
restrictive covenants and requires certain financial ratios.
The Debentures mature on July 1, 2003 and are convertible at any time after
November 1, 1996 and before maturity, unless previously redeemed, into shares of
the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $9 3/4 per share, subject to
adjustment in certain events. In addition, holders of the Debentures who convert
prior to July 1, 1999 will receive, in addition to the Company's common stock, a
payment generally equal to 50% of the interest otherwise payable on the
converted Debentures from the date of conversion through July 1, 1999, payable
in cash or common stock, at the Company's option. Interest on the Debentures is
payable semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 of each year, commencing January
1, 1997. In August, 1996, the interest rate was increased from 7% to 7 1/2% due
to certain modifications in the Debenture indenture involving a certain
subsidiary's

inability to guarantee the obligations under the indenture,
relating to the Debentures (the "Prospectus"), (specifically, Servicios). As the
result of the Company's purchase of the remaining 37% ownership in Servicios,
the interest rate was reduced to 7% in July of 1997.
The Debentures will not be redeemable by the Company before July 15, 1999.
Thereafter, the Debentures will be redeemable at the optionexecutive officers of the Company in
whole or part, at the declining redemption prices set forth in the original
Prospectus, together with accruedas a group. Except as noted below, each
holder has sole voting and unpaid interest thereon.(see Note 17, for
further discussion.)
In January 1996, prior to the consummation of the Bank Credit Agreement and
offering described above, the Company, Yale E. Key, Clint Hurt and WellTech
entered into separate credit facilities with CIT totaling approximately $35
million (the combined maximum credit limit). The credit facilities were combined
into one facility after the consummation of the Welltech merger. As a result of
the separate credit facilities, the interest rate for Yale E. Key was lowered
from two and one-half to one and one-quarter percent over the stated prime rate
(8.25% at June 30, 1996). Each of the CIT term notes required principal and
interest payments, due the first day of each month beginning February 1, 1996,
plus a final payment of the unpaid balance of the note due December 31, 1998.
The expiration of each of the lines of credit was December 31, 1998.

percent. Principal payments are $500,000 at June 30, 1998, $125,000 at
the end of each quarter beginning September 30, 1998 through June 30,

The Company used the proceeds from the facility to: (i) repay existing bank
debt; (ii) make additional acquisitions and capital expenditures; and (iii)
provide working capital. In addition, the credit facility, of $135 million,
provides, under certain conditions, for the repurchase of a portion of the
Company's outstanding common stock in the open market from time to time. At
June 30, 1997, there was $135 million available on the credit facility.
Under the credit facility the Company may be obligated to pay certain fees

per share, subject to adjustment in certain events. In addition, holders of

January 1 and July 1 of each year, commencing January 1, 1997. In August,

modifications in the Debenture indenture involving a certain subsidiary's
inability to guarantee the obligations under the indenture, relating to the
Debentures (the "Prospectus"), (specifically, Servicios). As the result of
the Company's purchase of the remaining 37% ownership in Servicios, the
interest rate was reduced to 7% in July of 1997.

WellTech Eastern. The CIT line of credit, as amended, required monthly
payments of interest at one and one-quarter percent above the stated prime
rate of 8.25% at June 30, 1996. The line of credit was collateralized by

The agreement with CIT included certain restrictive covenants, the most
restrictive of which prohibited the Company from making distributions and
declaring dividends on its common stock.
(iv). Prior to the Agreement and Offering described above, Odessa
Exploration had a loan agreement, as amended, with Norwest. The loan
agreement provided for a $7.5 million revolving line of credit note
subject to a borrowing base limitation (approximately $6.3 million at June
30, 1996). The borrowing base was redetermined on at least a semi-annual
basis. The borrowing base was reduced by approximately $100,000 per month
through October 1997; the maturity of the note. The note's interest rate
was one-half of one percent over Norwest's prime rate of 8.25% at June 30,
1996. The note was secured by substantially all of the oil and gas
properties of Odessa Exploration.
The loan agreement had contained various restrictive covenants and
compliance requirements, which included (a) prohibits Odessa Exploration
from declaring or paying dividends on Odessa Exploration's common stock,
(b) limiting the incurrence of additional indebtedness by Odessa
Exploration, (c) the limitation on the disposition of assets and (d)
various financial covenants.
(v). In April, 1996, as the result of the acquisition of certain
properties by Odessa Exploration, but prior to the Offering described
above, Odessa Exploration entered into a loan agreement with Norwest. The
loan agreement provided for a term loan of $9.3 million to be reduced by
$2.4 million in principal amount after the consummation of the acquisition
of certain properties by Odessa Exploration. The note's interest rate was
one-half of one percent over Norwest's prime rate of 8.25% at June 30,
1996. The note required interest payments beginning June 1, 1996. The note
was secured by substantially all of the oil and gas properties of Odessa
Exploration.

6. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
accounts payable and accrued expenses, other current assets and other current
liabilities approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these
instruments.
Based on the borrowing rates currently estimated to be available to the
Company for loans with similar terms, the fair value of long-term debt
approximates the carrying amount as of June 30, 1997 and 1996, except for the
subordinated convertible debentures which have a carrying value of $52 million
and a fair value of approximately $98.9 million at June 30, 1997.

8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The 1995 Stock Option Plan
On March 26, 1996, a Stock Option Plan (the "1995 Plan") was approved by
the Company's stockholders. The Plan became effective July 1, 1995, and , unless
terminated earlier, will terminate July 1, 2005. The 1995 Plan is administered
by a committee (the "Committee") consisting of at least three directors of Key,
each of whom is a "disinterested person" within the meaning of rule 16b-3 under
the Exchange Act and an "outside director" within the meaning of Section 162(m)
of the Code.

Key Energy Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (continued
The total number of shares of the Company's common stock that may be
subject to options under the 1995 Plan may not exceed 1,800,000 in the
aggregate. The total amount of common stockinvestment power with respect to which options
may be granted over the life of the 1995 Plan to any single employee shall
not exceed 500,000 shares in the aggregate. Options which are canceled,
forfeited or have expired or expire by their terms without being exercised
shall be available for future grants under the 1995 Plan. The Committee
may determine which key employees of the Company or any subsidiary or
other persons shall be granted options under the 1995 Plan, the terms of
the options and the number of shares which may be purchased under the
option.
The individuals eligible to receive options under the 1995 Plan consist of
key employees (including officers who may be members of the Board), directors
who are neither employees nor members of the Committee and other individuals who
render services of special importance to the management, operation or
development of Key or any subsidiary, and who have contributed or may be
expected to contribute materially to the success of Key or a subsidiary,
provided, however, that only key employees are eligible to receive options.
The price at whichall shares of common stock may be purchased upon exercise of
an option will be specifiedCommon
Stock listed as owned by the Committee at the time the option is granted,
but in the case of an individual stock option, except under certain conditions,
may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of
grant. The duration of any option is determined by the Committee in its
discretion and shall be specified in the option agreement. No individual stock
option may be exercisable after the expiration of ten years.
The 1995 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan
On March 26, 1996, an Outside Directors Stock Option Plan was approved by
the Company's Shareholder's (the "Directors Plan"). Individuals who are "Outside
Directors" are eligible to participate in the Directors Plan. An "Outside
Director" is defined as a member of the Board of Directors who is not an
employee of the Companysuch person or any of its subsidiaries. Under the Directors Plan,
Outside Directors are divided into three groups dependent upon certain dates and
length of service on the Board. Only nonqualified stock options ("NSO's") may be
granted under the Directors Plan. An NSO granted under the Directors Plan shall
expire ten years after the date of the grant. An NSO may not be granted under
the Directors Plan after July 1, 1998.
The Directors Plan provides for the issuance of an aggregate of 400,000
shares of common stock, which may be authorized but unissued shares, treasury
shares, or shares purchased on the open market. The exercise price of the NSO
shall be the fair market value on the date of the grant.
The following table summarizes the stock option activity related to the
Company's plans:

The Company applies APB 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for
its stock option awards. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been
recognized for its stock option awards. If compensation expense for the stock
option awards had been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company's net
income and net income per share, for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
would have been adjusted to the following pro forma amounts:
(unaudited) Year Ended June 30,
1997 1996
---- ----
Net income (in thousands) $8,680 $2,945
Primary net income per share $ 0.71 $ 0.37
Fully-diluted net income per share $ 0.61 $ 0.35
The pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share amounts noted
above are not likely to be representative of the pro forma amounts to be
reported in future years. Pro forma adjustments in future years will include
compensation expense associated with the options granted in fiscal year 1996 and
1997 plus compensation expense associated with any options awarded in future
years. As a result, such pro forma compensation expense is likely to be higher
than the levels reflected for 1996 and 1997 if any options are awarded in future
years.
Under SFAS 123, the fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on
the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the
following weighted average assumptions used for grant in 1997 and 1996:
1997 1996
---- ----
Risk-free interest rate 6.59% 6.54%
Expected life 5 years 5 years
Expected volatility 28% 29%
Expected dividend yield 0% 0%
The total fair value of options granted at June 30, 1997 is $6,541,000.

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some
portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based on expectations
for the future, management has determined that taxable income of the Company
will more likely than not be sufficient to fully utilize available carryforwards
prior to their ultimate expiration.
The Company estimates that as of June 30, 1997, the Company will have
available approximately $148,414,060 of net operating loss carryforwards (which
begin to expire in 2001). The net operating loss carryforwards are subject to an
annual limitation of approximately $940,000, under Sections 382 and 383 of the
Internal Revenue Code.

10. LEASING ARRANGEMENTS
Among other leases, the Company (primarily its subsidiaries), lease certain
automotive equipment under non-cancelable operating leases which expire at
various dates through 2002. The term of the operating leases generally run from
36 to 60 months with varying payment dates throughout each month. In addition,
in the case of Yale E. Key, each lease includes an option to purchase the
equipment and an excess mileage charge as defined in the leases.
As of June 30, 1997, the future minimum lease payments under
non-cancelable operating leases, in thousands, are as follows:

$1,930,000, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
At June 30, 1997, as the result of the WellTech merger (Note 2), the
Company maintains two 401-(k) plans (the "Plans") for its employees. Employees
of WellTech Eastern are eligible for participation in one Plan (the "WellTech
401-(k) Plan"), while all other employees are eligible for participation in the
other Plan (the "Key 401-(k) Plan"). The Company intends to merge the two Plans
at January 1, 1998. The 401-(k) plans cover substantially all employees of the
Company. The Company matches employees' contributions up to 10% of the
employees' contribution to the Key 401-(k) Plan. These contributions totaled
approximately $35,000, $19,000 and $20,000 for the years ended June 30, 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively. Additionally, the Company contributed $300,000 and
$37,000 into the WellTech 401-(k) Plan for the year ended June 30, 1997 and the
period of March 26, 1996 (the date of the WellTech merger) to June 30, 1996,
respectively . The Company agreed to match employee contributions up to 50% (to
a maximum of $1,000 per employee) of the employees' contributions to the
WellTech 401-(k) Plan.
12. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
Sales to customers representing 10% or more of consolidated revenues for
the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were as follows:

13. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
WellTech Eastern paid $78,000 and $18,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997
and for the period March 26, 1996 (the date of the Welltech merger) to June 30,
1996, respectively, for office/yard rental expense in which an officer of the
Company and WellTech Eastern has an interest. In the opinion of the Board of
Directors of the Company, based on the Board's review of competitive bids, this
transaction was on terms at least as favorable to the Company as could have been
obtained from a third party.
In connection with the Odessa Exploration acquisition, (see Note 2) the
Company granted D. Kirk Edwards (President of Odessa Exploration) a percentage
reversionary working interest in five deep gas wells located in West Texas upon
repayment of $1,622,000 of the bank debt assumed by the Company in the
acquisition from the Company's earnings from the five wells. The percentage
reversionary working interest decreases based on the date of repayment of the
assumed bank debt and ranges from 20% of the earnings from the five wells if
repayment occurs on or prior to July 7, 1995, to 5% of the earnings from the
five wells if repayment occurs after July 7, 1996.
Key leases automotive equipment from an independent third party (see Note
10). The independent third party purchases the automotive equipment from an
automobile dealership in which a former officer owns a majority interest. Net
proceeds to the automobile dealership totaled $399,000 for the year ended June
30, 1995. The leases are considered operating leases. In the opinion of the
Board of Directors of the Company, the net proceeds from automotive equipment
were on terms at least as favorable to the Company as could have been obtained
from a third party. This opinion is based on information provided by a third
party leasing company, that is not affiliated with the former officer or the
Company, to the Board of Directors regarding purchase prices and equipment lease
rentals offered by third parties.

14. CONCENTRATIONSentity.
BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF CREDIT RISK
The Company has a concentration of customers in the oil and gas industry.
Substantially all of the Company's customers are major integrated oil companies,
major independent producers of oil and gas and smaller independent producers.
This may affect the Company's overall exposure to credit risk either positively
or negatively, in as much as its customers are effected by economic conditions
in the oil and gas industry, which has historically been cyclical. However,
accounts receivable are well diversified among many customers and a significant
portion of the receivables are from major oil companies, which management
believes minimizes potential credit risk. Historically, credit losses have been
insignificant. Receivables are generally not collateralized, although the
Company may generally secure a receivable at any time by filing a mechanic's and
material-mans' lien on the well serviced.

In addition, Key performs a variety of other oilfield services including fishing
tools, frac tanks and blow-out preventers.
Oil and gas production is conducted by Odessa Exploration. Odessa
Exploration acquires and manages interests in producing oil and gas properties
for its own account and for its sponsored investors. Odessa Exploration is
engaged in the drilling and production of oil and natural gas in the United
States. Odessa Exploration acquires producing oil and gas properties from major
and independent producers. After acquisition, Odessa Exploration may either
rework the acquired wells to increase production and/or form drilling
partnerships for additional development wells.
Oil and gas well drilling services are conducted by Clint Hurt Drilling.
Clint Hurt Drilling operates six drilling rigs which drill for oil and gas in
the West Texas area.
16. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments to manage
well-defined commodity price risks. The Company is exposed to credit losses in
the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to its commodity hedges. The
Company anticipates, however, that such counterparties will be able to fully
satisfy their obligations under the contracts. The Company does not obtain
collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit
risk but monitors the credit standing of the counterparties.
The Company utilizes option contracts to hedge the effect of price changes
on future oil and gas production. If market prices of oil and gas exceed the
strike price of put options, the options will expire unexercised, therefore
reducing the effective price received for oil and gas sales by the cost of the
related option. As of June 30, 1996, Odessa Exploration had 6,000 Bbls of oil
per month hedged with a strike price of $19.50 per Bbl., from the period of July
1, 1996 through December 31, 1996.
Premiums paid for commodity options contracts are amortized to oil and gas
sales over the terms of the agreements. Unamortized premiums of $91,789 and $0
are included in other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet at June
30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Amounts receivable, if any, under commodity
option contracts are accrued as an increase in oil and gas sales for the
applicable periods.

Conversion of Convertible Subordinated Debentures
As of September 11, 1997, $33,245,000 in principal amount of the Company's
Debentures had converted into the Company's common stock. The conversion was at
the option of the holders. The Debentures converted into 3,552,539 shares of the
Company's common stock. The conversion included 188,488 shares, in addition to
the conversion of shares at $9.75 per share. Such additional consideration will
be accounted for as an increase to the Company's Equity. However, the
proportional amount of debt issuance costs associated with the converted
Debentures will be expensed as an extraordinary item in the period in which it
occurs.

Oil and Gas Reserve Information
Estimates of Odessa Exploration's proved oil and gas reserves as of June
30, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were prepared by the Company and reviewed by an
independent petroleum reservoir engineering firm. Estimates were made in
accordance with guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude
oil and natural gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate with
reasonable certaintypower
to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs
under existing economic conditions, i.e. prices and costs as of the date the
estimate is made. Prices utilized reflect consideration of changes in existing
prices provided by contractual arrangements, if any, but not of escalations
based upon future conditions. The reserve estimates are presented utilizing an
average oil price of $21.00 Bbl and an average natural gas price of $2.20 Mcf as
of June 30, 1997.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (continued)
Proved developed oil and gas reserves are reserves that can be expectedvote or to be recovered through existing equipment and operating methods.
Proved undeveloped oil and gas reserves are proved reserves that are
expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage or from existing
wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion or
secondary or tertiary recovery. Reserves assigned to undrilled acreage are
limited to those drilling units that offset productive units reasonably certain
of production when drilled.
No major discovery or other favorable or adverse event has occurred since
July 1, 1997 which is believed to have caused a significant change in the
estimated proved oil and gas reserves of Odessa Exploration.
Odessa Exploration's estimate of reserves has not been filed with or
included in reports to any federal agency other than the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Oil and gas reserve quantity estimates are subject to numerous
uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in
the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development
expenditures. The accuracydirect voting of such estimates is a functionshares or to dispose or to
direct the disposition of the quality of
available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment.
Results of subsequent drilling, testing and productionsuch shares. With respect to executive
officers, includes shares that may cause either upward
or downward revision of previous estimates. Further, the volumes considered to
be commercially recoverable fluctuate with changes in prices and operating
costs. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise
and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than those ofpurchased under currently
producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to
change as additional information becomes available in the future.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Cash Flows
The following schedules present estimates of the standardized measure of
discounted future net cash flows from the Company's proved reserves as of June
30, 1996, and an analysis of the changes in these amounts for the years ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995. June 30, 1997 information is not included, as during the
current year oil and gas producing activities are no longer considered
significant in accordance with reporting requirements under FAS 14 - Financial
Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise. Estimated future cash flows are
determined using year-end prices adjusted only for fixed and determinable
increases for natural gas provided by contractual agreement (if any). Estimated
future production and development costs are based on economic conditions at
year-end. Future federal income taxes are computed by applying the statutory
federal income tax rate of 34%exercisable stock options granted pursuant to the difference between the future pretax net
cash flows and the tax basis of proved oil and gas properties, after considering
investment tax credits and net operating loss carry-forwards (if any),
associated with these properties.
Discounted future cash flow estimates like those shown below are not
intendedOption Plan. With
respect to represent estimates of the fair value of oil and gas properties.
Estimates of fair value should also consider probable reserves, anticipated
future oil and gas prices, interest rates, changes in development and production
costs and risks associated with future production. Because of these and other
considerations, any estimate of fair value is necessarily subjective and
imprecise.
