WARRIOR ENERGY SERVICES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.
General
The accompanying condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the
original reportopinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of Warrior Energy Services Corporation (the “Company”). Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company’s Annual Report on Form10-QSB except10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 should be read in conjunction with this document.The Company is a natural gas and oil well services company that provides cased-hole wireline and well intervention services to
correct the numerical error. This Form 10-QSB/A does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the original Form 10-QSB or modify or update those disclosures. Information not affected by the correction of the numerical error is unchangedexploration andreflects the disclosure made at the time of the original filing of the Form 10-QSB with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2005. The following items have been amended asproduction (“E&P”) companies. As a result of therestatement: BLACK WARRIOR WIRELINE CORP. QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-Q INDEX PART ICompany’s acquisition of Bobcat Pressure Control, Inc. (“Bobcat”) on December 16, 2005, which represents the Company’s introduction into the well intervention services business, the Company currently operates in two business segments: wireline services and well intervention services. The Company’s wireline segment includes the business conducted prior to the Bobcat acquisition, and its well intervention segment includes the business conducted by Bobcat post-acquisition. The Company’s wireline services focus on cased-hole wireline operations, including logging services, perforating, mechanical services, pipe recovery and plugging and abandoning the well. The Company’s well intervention services are primarily hydraulic workover services, commonly known as snubbing services. All of the Company’s services are performed at the well site and are fundamental to establishing and maintaining the flow of natural gas and oil throughout the productive life of the well.
2.
Stock-Based Compensation
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement 123 (revised 2004) (Statement 123(R)), Share-Based Payment,which revises Statement 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Statement 123(R) requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value of our stock-based compensation awards, including employee stock options.
Prior to the adoption of Statement 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based compensation awards using the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion 25. Accordingly, the Company did not recognize compensation expense in our statement of operations for options granted that had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. However, the Company did record compensation expense related to restricted stock units based on the market value of our stock at the date of grant. As required by Statement 123, the Company also provided certain pro forma disclosures for stock-based awards as if the fair-value-based approach of Statement 123 had been applied.
The Company has elected to use the modified prospective transition method as permitted by Statement 123(R) and therefore has not restated its financial results for prior periods. Under this transition method, the Company will apply the provisions of Statement 123(R) to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after January 1, 2006. Additionally, the Company will recognize compensation cost for the portion of awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered (unvested awards) that are outstanding as of January 1, 2006, as the remaining service is rendered. The compensation cost the Company records for these awards will be based on their grant-date fair value as calculated for the pro forma disclosures required by Statement 123.
The Company’s pre-tax compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation was $102,600 ($64,330 after tax effects) for the three months ended March 31, 2006. As a result of the adoption of Statement 123(R), the Company’s financial results were lower than under our previous accounting method for share-based compensation by the following amounts:

Income before income taxes
$

Net income

Basic earnings per common share
0.03
Diluted earnings per common share
0.01
Prior to the adoption of Statement 123(R), the Company presented all tax benefits resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. Statement 123(R) requires that cash flows from the exercise of stock options resulting from tax benefits in excess of recognized cumulative compensation cost (excess tax benefits) be classified as financing cash flows. As the Company has not fully utilized its net operating loss carryforwards, the excess tax benefit will not be recorded until the tax benefits are realized.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income after tax and net income per common share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement 123 to stock-based compensation for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005:

The expected term of the options is based on evaluations of historical and expected future employee exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the US Treasury rates at the date of grant with maturity dates approximately equal to the expected life at the grant date. Volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company has not historically issued any dividends and does not expect to in the future.

Option grants vest at various times under each plan and all options issued under the Company’s three plans are fully vested at March 31, 2006 with the exception of those issued in 2006.

Indebtedness
Senior Secured Credit Agreement
On December 16, 2005, the Company entered into the Senior Secured Credit Agreement with General Electric Capital Corporation (“GECC”), providing for a term loan and revolving and capital expenditure credit facilities in an aggregate amount of $50.0 million. The Senior Secured Credit Agreement amended, restated and modified the credit agreement the Company entered into with GECC as of September 14, 2001 and as it was amended and restated on November 14, 2004, including the amendments thereto. The Senior Secured Credit Agreement includes:
a revolving credit facility of up to $15.0 million, but not exceeding a borrowing base of 85% of the book value of eligible accounts receivable, less any reserves GECC may establish from time to time,
a term loan of $30.0 million, and
a one-year capital expenditure loan facility of up to $5.0 million, but not exceeding the lesser of 80% of the hard costs of eligible capital equipment and 75% of the forced liquidation value of eligible capital equipment, subject to adjustment by GECC.
GECC’s agreement to make revolving loans expires on December 16, 2008 and its agreement to make capital expenditure loans expires on December 16, 2006, unless earlier terminated under the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement.
Interest Rates. The annual interest rate on borrowings under the revolving loan facility is 0.75% above the index rate, and the annual interest rate on borrowings under the term loan and capital expenditure loan facility is 2.25% above the index rate. The index rate is a floating rate equal to the higher of (i) the rate publicly quoted from time to time by the Wall Street Journal as the prime rate, or (ii) the average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions among members of the Federal Reserve System plus 0.5%. The interest rate margin above the index rate may be adjusted from time to time on a quarterly basis based on the Company’s ratio of its funded debt to EBITDA for the trailing twelve months prior to the determination. Subject to the absence of an event of default and fulfillment of certain other conditions, the Company can elect to borrow or convert any loan and pay the annual interest at the LIBOR rate plus applicable margins of 2.25% on the revolving loan and 3.75% on the term loan and capital expenditure loan.
Collateral. Advances under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are collateralized by a senior lien against substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Maturity of Loans. Borrowings under the revolving loan are able to be repaid and re-borrowed from time to time for working capital and general corporate needs, subject to the Company’s continuing compliance with the terms of the agreement. Any amounts outstanding under the revolving loan are due and payable on December 16, 2008. The term loan is to be repaid in 12 consecutive quarterly installments of $1.1 million commencing January 1, 2006 with a final installment of $16.8 million due and payable on January 1, 2009. The capital expenditure loan is to be repaid in eight consecutive quarterly installments with each quarterly installment equal to 1/20th of the borrowings funded prior to the expiration of the one-year term of the facility and with a final installment in the amount of the remaining principal balance due on December 16, 2008.
Mandatory and Voluntary Prepayments. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are subject to certain mandatory pre-payments including, among other requirements, pre-payment out of a portion of the net proceeds of any sale of stock by the Company in a public offering. The Company must apply the net proceeds from any sale of its stock, other than on exercise of existing warrants and conversion rights, occurring before December 31, 2006 to the prepayment of loans. On April 25, 2006, the Company applied $4.0 million out of the net proceeds of its underwritten public offering of common stock to the repayment of indebtedness outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and paid approximately $40,000 in prepayment fees. See Note 11.Subsequent Events to the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements.
The Company is also required to prepay annually, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, loans and other outstanding obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement in an amount equal to seventy-five percent 75% of the Company’s excess cash flow for the immediately preceding fiscal year.
The Company may at any time prepay all or part of the term loan or capital expenditure loan, permanently reduce or terminate the capital expenditure commitment, and permanently reduce but not terminate the revolving loan commitment, subject to the payment of certain pre-payment fees declining from 1.0% in the event the termination or reduction occurs during the first year, 0.5% in the event the termination or reduction occurs during the second year, and 0.25% in the event the termination or reduction occurs during the third year of the term of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement.
Second Lien Credit Agreement
On December 16, 2005, the Company entered into the Second Lien Credit Agreement with GECC, providing for a term loan $25.0 million. The annual interest rate on borrowings under the term loan was 6.0% above the index rate, as defined above. Initial borrowings under the Second Lien Credit Agreement advanced on December 16, 2005 of $25.0 million were used to pay a portion of the Bobcat acquisition purchase price. This indebtedness outstanding under the Second Lien Credit Agreement was repaid in full, including prepayment fees, on April 25, 2006 out of the net proceeds of the Company’s underwritten public offering of shares of its common stock. See Note 11.Subsequent Events to the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements.

Related Party Transactions
At March 31, 2006, the Company had outstanding notes payable to SJMB, L.P. (“SJMB”) and St. James Capital Partners, L.P. (“SJCP”) and others who participated with SJMB in the purchase of promissory notes and warrants of the Company (collectively “the St. James Partnerships”). Both the chairman and an employee of SJMB, L.L.C., the general partner of SJMB, served on the Company’s Board of Directors at March 31, 2006. At March 31, 2005, such persons were the chairman and an employee of St. James Capital Corp., which was then the general partner of SJCP. At March 31, 2006 and 2005, notes due to the St. James Partnerships totaled $21.9 million and $23.0 million, respectively. The notes bore interest at 15% and were convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $7.50 per share. The principal and accrued interest on this indebtedness was converted into 5,413,437 shares of common stock at the closing of the Company’s public offering on April 24, 2006 and all but 117,507 of the shares issued were repurchased by the Company out of the net proceeds of the public offering.

Issuance of Common Stock
The Company had outstanding at March 31, 2006 common stock purchase warrants, options and convertible debt securities entitled to purchase or to be converted into an aggregate 8,262,546 shares of the Company’s common stock at exercise and conversion prices ranging from $7.50 to $26.30. See Note 11.Subsequent Events to the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements for information regarding the repurchase of outstanding common stock purchase warrants, the exercise of stock options, the conversion of convertible debt securities, and the issuance of shares of common stock subsequent to March 31, 2006.
9.
Income Taxes
The difference between the statutory rate and the effective rate relates primarily to state income taxes. The Company has federal tax net operating loss carryforwards (NOL’s) that unless utilized, expire at various dates through 2024. The Company’s utilization of NOL’s is subject to a number of uncertainties including the ability to generate future taxable income. In addition, the Company has been subject to a number of “ownership changes” as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Section 382 imposes additional limitations on utilization of certain of the Company’s NOL’s. As a result, the Company has provided a valuation allowance on a portion of its NOL’s which are more likely than not to be unavailable for use due to these limitations. The Company currently anticipates that it will begin paying income taxes on its earnings in the last half of 2006 and in the second quarter of 2006 to the extent not offset by the Company’s remaining NOL’s.

Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations3 2ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERALOverview
The
Company'sCompany is a natural gas and oil well services company that provides cased-hole wireline and well intervention services to exploration and production (“E&P”) companies. The Company’s wireline services focus on cased-hole wireline operations, including logging services, perforating, mechanical services, pipe recovery and plugging and abandoning the well. The Company’s well intervention services are primarily hydraulic workover services, commonly known as snubbing services. All of the Company’s services are performed at the well site and are fundamental to establishing and maintaining the flow of natural gas and oil throughout the productive life of the well.The Company’s results of operations are affected primarily by the extent of utilization and rates paid for its wireline and well intervention services,
and equipment. The energy services sectorwhich iscompletelydependent upon the upstream spending by theoilnatural gas andnatural gasoil exploration and productionsidecompanies that comprise its client base. The Company derives a majority ofthe industry. A decline in oil andits revenues from services supporting production from existing natural gascommodityand oil operations. Demand for these production-related services is less volatile than drilling-related services and tends to remain relatively stable, even in lower natural gas and oil price environments, as ongoing maintenance spending is required to sustain production. As natural gas and oil pricescan be expected to result in a decline in thereach higher levels, demand for theCompany'sCompany’s production-related services generally increases as its customers engage in more well servicing activities relating to existing wells to maintain or increase natural gas and oil production from those wells. Because some of the Company’s services are required to support drilling activities, the Company is subject to changes in capital spending by its customers as natural gas and oil prices increase or decrease.As a result of the Company’s acquisition of Bobcat Pressure Control, Inc. (“Bobcat”) on December 16, 2005, which represents the Company’s introduction into the well intervention services business, the Company currently operates in two business segments: wireline services and
equipment.well intervention services. The Company’s wireline segment includes the business conducted prior to the Bobcat acquisition, and its well intervention segment includes the business conducted by Bobcat post-acquisition.As is discussed in Note 11.Subsequent Events to the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements, as a consequence of the completion on April 24, 2006 of the Company’s underwritten public offering of shares of its common stock, it repaid a total of $29.0 of indebtedness owing to GECC under its Senior Secured Credit Agreement and Second Lien Credit Agreement. In addition, an aggregate of $40.6 million of principal and accrued interest on the Company’s subordinated indebtedness was converted into 5,413,437 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company
believesrepurchased out of the net proceeds from its public offering 5,295,930 of those shares issued on conversion of the principal and interest on the subordinated indebtedness, together with 1,104,094 shares thatinformation regardingwere outstanding prior to thecountoffering, and repurchased 4,075,528 ofactive drilling rigs in useits common stock purchase warrants out of a total of 4,289,028 common stock purchase warrants that remained outstanding at the time of the public offering. In addition, the 592,466 shares of common stock sold by the selling stockholders in thecontinental United States as well as offshoreCompany’s underwritten public offering were issued concurrently with the public offering on conversion of $3.1 million principal amount of and accrued interest on outstanding convertible notes. Also concurrently with the public offering, the holders of approximately $525,000 principal amount of and accrued interest on outstanding convertible notes converted the principal of and accrued interest on those notes into an aggregate of 117,507 shares of common stock. The effects of these transactions are not reflected in theGulfdiscussion below.Revenues
The majority of
Mexico can be used as an indicator of current likelythe Company’s revenues are generated from major and large independent natural gas and oil companies. The primary factor influencing demand foroilthe Company’s services by those customers is their level of drilling and workover activity, which, in turn, depends primarily on the availability of drilling and workover prospects and current and anticipated future natural gaswell services. Fluctuations inand oiland natural gascommodity prices and production depletion rates.The Company’s services are
frequently followed by fluctuationsgenerally provided at a price based on bids submitted which in turn are based on thenumberCompany’s current pricing, equipment and crew availability and customer location and the nature ofactive drilling rigs. The Company showed improvement in revenues during 2004 over 2003the service to be provided. These services are routinely provided to the Company’s customers and2002 reflecting the increased count of active drilling rigs during those years. Inasmuch as oil and natural gas commodity pricesare subject tofrequent material fluctuations, there can be no assurance thattheCompany'scustomers’ time schedule, weather conditions, availability of the Company’s personnel and complexity of the operation. The Company’s wireline services generally take one to three days to perform while its well intervention services generally take two weeks or longer to perform. Service revenuesin 2005 will equalare recognized at the time services are performed.The Company generally charges for its wireline services on a per-well entry basis and its well intervention services on a day-rate basis. Depending on the specific service, a per-well entry or
exceedday-rate may include one or more of these components: (1) a set-up charge, (2) an hourly service rate based on equipment and labor, (3) an equipment rental charge, (4) a consumables charge and (5) a mileage and fuel charge. The Company determines the rates charged through a competitive bid process on a job-by-job basis or, for larger customers, the Company may negotiate on an annual basis. Typically, work is performed on a “call out” basis, whereby the customer requests services on a job-specific basis, but does not guarantee work levels beyond the specific job bid.During the three months ended March 31, 2006, approximately $20.7 million or 75.8% of the Company’s revenues were generated from wireline services and approximately $6.6 million or 24.2% of its revenues were generated from well intervention services. The Company’s revenues from wireline services during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 were approximately $14.4. Inasmuch as the Company entered the well intervention segment of its business in December 2005 with its acquisition of Bobcat, it had no revenues from this source in the quarter ended March 31, 2005. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, approximately 71.7% of the Company’s revenues were derived from onshore activities and approximately 28.3% of the Company’s revenues were derived from offshore activities. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, approximately 57.9% and
prior years. There can be no assurance49.9%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues were derived from onshore activities and approximately 42.1% and 50.1%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues were derived from offshore activities.Cost and Expenses
Operating Costs. The Company’s operating costs are comprised primarily of labor expenses, repair and maintenance, material and fuel and insurance. In a competitive labor market in the industry, it is possible that the Company will
continuehave toexperience any materialraise wage rates to attract workers and retain or expand its current work force. The Company believes it will be able to increase service rates to its customers to compensate for wage rate increases. The Company also incurs costs to employ personnel to sell and supervise its services and perform maintenance on its fleet. These costs are not directly tied to the Company’s level of business activity. Because the Company seeks to retain its experienced and well-qualified employees during cyclical downturns in its business, and is required to pay severance under employment agreements that cover a portion of its workforce, the Company expects labor expenses to increase as a percentage of revenues during future cyclical downturns. Repair and maintenance is performed by the Company’s crews, company maintenance personnel and outside service providers. Increases in thedemand forCompany’s material andutilizationfuel costs are frequently passed on to its customers. However, due to the timing ofits servicesthe Company’s marketing and bidding cycles, there is generally a delay of several weeks or months from the time that it incurs an actual price increase until the time that the Company can pass on that increase to its customers. Insurance is generally a fixed cost regardless of utilization and relates to the number of rigs, trucks, skids, snubbing units and other equipment in the Company’s fleet, employee payroll and safety record.Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses include administrative, marketing, employee compensation and related benefits, office and lease expenses, insurance costs and professional fees, as well as other costs and expenses not directly related to field operations. The Company’s management regularly evaluates the level of the Company’s general and administrative expenses in relation to its revenue because these expenses have a direct impact on the Company’s profitability. The Company expects to incur additional expense in future periods relating to incentive compensation paid to employees.
Interest Expense. Interest expense consists of interest associated with the Company’s revolving line of credit, term loan, convertible notes and other debt as described in the notes to the Company’s financial statements contained elsewhere in this Report. As a result of the Company’s public offering completed on April 24, 2006, the Company’s debt levels, as a consequence of the application of the net proceeds from that offering, will
achieve profitability. Onbe substantially lower than their levels as of March 31, 2006. In addition, the Company’s effective borrowing rate is substantially less than that associated with its outstanding convertible subordinated debt outstanding at March 31, 2006 which was converted to equity in connection with the public offering. Accordingly, subsequent to April28,24, 2006, interest expense will be substantially lower than the levels of interest expense following the Company’s acquisition of Bobcat. Interest income primarily consists of interest earned on the Company’s cash balances.Depreciation Expense. The Company’s depreciation expense is based on estimates, assumptions and judgments relative to capitalized costs, useful lives and salvage values of the Company’s assets. The Company generally computes depreciation using the straight-line method.
Income Taxes. At December 31, 2005, the Company
announcedhad approximately $29.3 million of net operating losses (“NOL’s”) available to offset future taxable income. A portion of these NOL’s will be available to reduce taxable income in 2006. However, a significant portion of these NOL’s are subject to IRS Section 382 limitations which restrict to the Company’s ability to use them to reduce taxable income.The Company is required to record a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that
itsome portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. At December 31, 2005 the Company hasentered intorecorded aLettervaluation allowance ofIntent$6.4 million against the gross deferred tax asset.In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers future reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income exclusive of temporary differences and available tax planning strategies. In 2005, the Company recorded a decrease in the valuation allowance of $8.2 million. The decrease was recorded as a $3.0 million reduction of the provision for income taxes and as a $5.2 million reduction of the deferred tax liability and goodwill associated with
affiliates of Centre Partners Management LLC and Centre Southwest Partners LLC (collectively "Centre") forthe acquisition of Bobcat.Results of Operations

Revenues
The Company’s total revenues increased by approximately $12.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2005. This increase in revenues was primarily the result of improved pricing and increased utilization of the
Company. If completed,Company’s services due to thetransaction will resultincrease inpaymentwell maintenance and drilling activity caused by higher natural gas and oil prices and the inclusion ofmerger consideration to each Company stockholderrevenues from the well intervention segment for the full quarter.

The decline2005 due to relatively constant expenses and increased revenues which offset increases ininterest expense is attributable to the reduction in the Company's senior debt outstanding. See "Note 9 of Notes to Financial Statements" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. The Company's net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 wasinsurance, professional fees and stock compensation expense.Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately
$646,000 compared with a net loss of approximately $3.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. The net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was the result of an increase in revenues resulting from an increase in demand for the Company's services. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash provided by the Company's operating activities was approximately $1.8$1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase was primarily due to the Bobcat acquisition and the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Bobcat acquisition.Interest Expense
Interest expense and amortization of debt discount increased by approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to the increase in the Company’s senior debt outstanding as a result of the Bobcat acquisition in December 2005.
Other Income
Other income increased by approximately $8,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was approximately $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and $0 in the same period of 2005. The Company utilized available NOL’s to substantially reduce the amount of taxes payable. However, no change in the valuation allowance occurred during the period ended March 31, 2006. For the period ended March 31, 2005, the Company recorded a decrease in the valuation allowance which resulted in the provision for income taxes being reduced to $0.
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was approximately $2.5 million compared with net income of approximately $646,000 for the same period of 2005. The improved results for the three months ended March 31, 2006 over the same period in 2005 was primarily the result of an increase in revenues reflecting an increase in demand for the Company’s services which resulted in improved pricing and utilization of the Company’s wireline and well intervention services.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary liquidity needs are to fund capital expenditures, such as expanding its wireline and well intervention services, geographic expansion, acquiring and upgrading trucks, skids and snubbing units, the addition of complementary service lines and funding general working capital needs. In addition, the Company needs capital to fund strategic business acquisitions. The Company’s primary sources of funds have historically been cash flow from operations, proceeds from borrowings under bank credit facilities and the issuance of debt. Upon completion of the Company’s public offering in April 2006, the Company anticipates that it will rely on cash generated from operations, borrowings under its revolving credit facility and possible debt and equity offerings to satisfy its liquidity needs. The Company believes that with the current and anticipated operating environment of the natural gas and oil industry, it will be able to meet its liquidity requirements for the remainder of 2006. In addition to funding operating expenses, cash requirements for 2006 are expected to be comprised mainly of amortization payments on indebtedness and funding capital improvements. The Company’s planned growth initiatives are expected to require capital expenditures of in excess of $100.0 million through approximately December 31, 2008. The Company’s ability to fund planned capital expenditures and to make acquisitions will depend upon its future operating performance, and more broadly, on the availability of equity and debt financing, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in the Company’s industry, and general financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control.
At March 31, 2006, the Company’s outstanding indebtedness included primarily senior indebtedness aggregating approximately $58.1 million, other indebtedness of approximately $3.8 million and approximately $40.9 million (including approximately $19.0 million of accrued interest) owing primarily to the holders of subordinated notes. As a result of the completion of the underwritten offering of shares of its common stock and the application of the net proceeds and the conversion of outstanding subordinated indebtedness into equity subsequent to March 31, 2006, the Company’s senior secured indebtedness was reduced by approximately $29.0 million and its subordinated indebtedness, including accrued interest, was eliminated. See Note 11.Subsequent Events to the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements for a further discussion of these transactions.
Cash provided by the Company’s operating activities was approximately $3.4 million (including a use of cash of $3.5 million for financing of the Company’s insurance premiums) for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to cash

The
action was originally instituted in December 2004 against the auditors of the St. James Partnerships. The plaintiffs brought the action as a class action on behalf of all the limited partners of the St. James Partnerships and are seeking class action certification. No claim has been asserted against the Company and the Company is not a defendant in the action. However, the complaint and the amended complaint in the action contain allegations that the Company participated with Mr. Underbrink in actions the plaintiffs allege were fraudulent and constituted securities violations. The Company has not concluded that it is probable that a claim will be asserted against it and does not believe that if a claim is asserted that there is a reasonable possibility that the outcome would be unfavorable to the Company or that any resulting liability would be material to the Company's financial condition. INFLATION The Company's revenues have been and are expected to continue to be affected by fluctuations in the prices for oil and gas. Inflationary pressures did not have a significant effect on the Company's operations in the three months ended March 31, 2005. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company'sCompany’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon its financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to the allowance for bad debts, inventory, long-lived assets, intangibles and goodwill. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.9The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 4 of the Notes to Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangibles, long-lived assets and related goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When the Company determines that the carrying value of intangibles, long-lived assets and related goodwill may not be recoverable, any impairment is measured at fair value based on a projected discounted net cash flows expected to result from that asset, including eventual disposition. Property and equipment are carried at original cost less applicable depreciation. Depreciation is recognized on the straight-line basis over lives ranging from two to ten years. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over each asset's estimated remaining useful life. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or retired, the remaining costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in income. Property and equipment held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows“Safe Harbor” Provisions of theaffected assets to determine the recoverabilityPrivate Securities Litigation Reform Act ofcarrying amounts. Warrants are valued based upon an independent valuation. The difference between the face value of the warrant issued and the value per the valuation is amortized into income through interest expense over the life of the related debt instrument.

Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk
From time to time, the Company holds financial instruments comprised of debt securities and time deposits. All such instruments are classified as securities available for sale. The Company does not invest in portfolio equity securities, or commodities, or use financial derivatives for trading or hedging purposes. The Company’s debt security portfolio represents funds held temporarily pending use in its business and operations. The Company manages these funds accordingly. The Company seeks reasonable assuredness of the safety of principal and market liquidity by investing in rated fixed income securities while, at the same time, seeking to achieve a favorable rate of return. The Company’s market risk exposure consists of exposure to changes in interest rates and to the risks of changes in the credit quality of issuers. The Company typically invests in investment grade securities with a term of three years or less. The Company believes that any exposure to interest rate risk is not material.
Under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Agreement and its Second Lien Credit Agreement with General Electric Capital Corporation entered into on December 16, 2005, the Company is subject to market risk exposure related to changes in the prime interest rate. Assuming the Company’s level of borrowings from GECC at December 31, 2005 remained unchanged throughout 2006, if a 100 basis point increase in interest rates under the Restated Credit Agreement from rates in existence at December 31, 2005 prevailed throughout the year 2006, it would increase the Company’s 2006 interest expense by approximately $552,000.
On April 24, 2006, the Company repaid its Second Lien Credit Agreement in full and reduced its outstanding indebtedness under its Senior Secured Credit Agreement by approximately $4.0 million. The foregoing does not reflect this reduction in outstanding indebtedness.
