                                     PART I
ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.
                                  THE COMPANY

    Key Energy Services, Inc., formerly known as Key Energy Group, Inc. (the
"Company" or "Key"), is the largest onshore, rig-based well servicing contractor
in the world, with approximately 1,400 well service rigs and 1,200 oilfield
trucks as of June 30, 1999. The Company provides a complete range of well
services to major and independent oil and gas companies, including: rig-based
well maintenance, workover, completion, and re-completion services (including
horizontal recompletions); oilfield trucking; and ancillary oilfield services.
Key conducts well servicing operations onshore the continental United States in
the Gulf Coast (including South Texas, the Central Gulf Coast of Texas, South
Louisiana, and the ArkLaTex region), the Permian Basin of West Texas and Eastern
New Mexico, the Mid-Continent region (including the Anadarko, Hugoton and Arkoma
Basins), the Four Corners area (including the San Juan, Piceance, Uinta, and
Paradox Basins), the Eastern Region (including the Appalachian, Michigan and
Illinois Basins), the Rocky Mountains (including the Denver-Julesberg, Powder
River, Wind River, Green River and Williston Basins), and California (the San
Joaquin Basin), and internationally in Argentina and Ontario, Canada. The
Company is also a leading onshore drilling contractor, with 73 land drilling
rigs as of June 30, 1999. Key conducts land drilling operations in a number of
major domestic producing basins, as well as in Argentina and in Ontario, Canada.
Key also produces and develops oil and natural gas reserves in the Permian Basin
and Texas Panhandle.

    Key's principal executive offices are located at Two Tower Center, 20(th)
Floor, East Brunswick, New Jersey 08816. The Company's phone number is (732)
247-4822 and its World Wide Web site address is www.keyenergy.com.

                                       3

                               BUSINESS STRATEGY

    Over the past several years, Key has been actively consolidating the well
servicing industry, completing in excess of fifty acquisitions. This
consolidation has led to reduced fragmentation in the well servicing market and
is expected to lead to more predictable demand and pricing for well services. In
response to record depressed market conditions during much of fiscal year 1999
and in conjunction with the completion of (i) significant acquisitions during
the fall of 1998 and (ii) the public offering of common stock in the spring of
1999, the Company streamlined operations and materially reduced indebtedness. As
a result, management believes that the company has better positioned itself for
profitable growth as industry conditions continue to recover and improve for the
following reasons:

    - reduced operating and financial costs;

    - increased diversity and size of equipment fleets;

    - increased ability to offer a complete range of oilfield services as a
      single-source provider;

    - increased geographic diversity of operations;

    - more balanced exposure to demand for both oil and natural gas related
      oilfield services;

    - increased contribution to revenues from contract drilling and other higher
      growth, higher margin services;

    - future opportunities to enter into strategic relationships or alliances
      with operators as a preferred service provider in certain domestic and
      international locations; and

    - future opportunities to make strategic acquisitions to enhance our
      existing operations.

                     MAJOR DEVELOPMENTS DURING FISCAL 1999

INDUSTRY DOWNTURN, COMPANY'S RESPONSE AND RECENT RECOVERY

    Throughout calendar year 1997, Key benefited from an increase in utilization
of its rigs, trucks and other services and equipment and improvements in pricing
associated with the increased demand for these services. During the fourth
quarter of calendar year 1997, an imbalance began to develop in the supply and
the demand for crude oil. Reduced demand was fueled by the Asian recession and
two consecutive unusually warm winters in North America. The supply of crude oil
increased as a result of increased production quotas by the Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries ("OPEC") and renewed production by Iraq. The
resulting excess supply of crude oil caused significant declines in oil prices
during calendar year 1998. Crude oil prices averaged $14 to $15 per barrel
during calendar year 1998 compared to $20 to $21 per barrel during calendar year
1997 and reached a 12-year low of below $11.00 per barrel in December 1998.
Natural gas prices were also lower during the second half of calendar year 1998
as unusually warm winters in North America during calendar years 1997 and 1998
resulted in weaker demand with prices reaching a low of approximately $1.60 per
Mcf in early calendar year 1999. Reduced prices for oil and gas led to a sharp
decline in the demand for oilfield services as oil and gas companies
significantly reduced capital spending for exploration, development and
production activities well into calendar year 1999.

    Key's operations were most significantly impacted by the downturn in the
industry starting in the month of December 1998. The severe downturn continued
and worsened for Key's operations during the March 1999 quarter as virtually all
expected new capital spending related to oilfield services, such as drilling,
workovers and completions, failed to materialize. The Halliburton (Guiberson)
U.S. well service rig count averaged 3,035 during calendar year 1998 and reached
a low of 1,904 in February 1999 compared to 3,508 during calendar year 1997.
Similarly, the Baker Hughes U.S. land drilling rig count averaged 699 during
calendar year 1998 and reached a low of 380 in April 1999 compared to 822 during
calendar year 1997.

                                       4

    In response to the industry downturn, the Company developed and implemented
a corporate-wide restructuring plan to reduce operating costs beyond those
achieved through its prior consolidation efforts. The plan involved a reduction
in the size of management and on-site work force, salary reductions averaging
21% for senior management, the combination of previously separate operating
divisions and the elimination of redundant overhead and facilities. The Company
estimates that it has achieved annualized operating cost savings in excess of
$20 million through the implementation of the restructuring plan and the
integration of the Dawson acquisition discussed below. In connection with the
restructing plan, the Company took pretax charges to earnings of approximately
$6.7 million in the second quarter ending December 31, 1998 and $1.5 million in
the third quarter ending March 31, 1999.

    In March 1999, OPEC and other non-OPEC countries, which had already lowered
their production during calendar year 1998, substantially reduced production to
a point which, depending on OPEC compliance with its new production quotas, was
expected to be below the stable to improving demand for oil. As a result of
these new production levels, assumed strong quota compliance, and improving
demand for oil, world oil prices recovered significantly during through the
spring and summer of 1999 to levels in excess of $20 per barrel. In addition,
domestic natural gas prices increased significantly during the summer of 1999 as
increased demand due to a hot summer in the United States, combined with stable
to decreasing deliverability due to depletion and reduced natural gas drilling
activity (due to the forementioned capital spending cuts), caused concerns
regarding a possible imbalance between gas supply and demand, particularly
headed into the fall and winter of 1999. Despite improved commodity prices,
capital spending by oil companies remained at reduced levels during the first
half of calendar year 1999 as: (i) capital markets remained largely unavailable
to producers; (ii) many producers, including a number of the majors, were
acquiring, merging, reorganizing or divesting operations, or integrating recent
combinations; and (iii) many producers were conserving cash to preserve or
improve their financial condition or to await improved commodity prices.

    Subsequent to the rig count lows of February 1999 to April 1999, and as a
direct result of the improvement in oil and natural gas prices during the spring
and summer of 1999, the Halliburton rig count has recovered to 2,388 as of
August 1999 and the Baker Hughes rig count has improved to 614 as of October 8,
1999. The recoveries in these rig counts, particularly the Baker Hughes rig
count, are indicative of a recovery in capital spending on oilfield services
such as drilling, workovers and completions. Key benefited from this recovery
during the quarter ended June 30, 1999 as total revenues increased by
approximately 18.6% from the levels of the quarter ended March 31, 1999.

    As a result of this recovery, the Company amended its restructuring plan to
decrease the number of planned employee terminations. Increased demand for the
Company's services made such terminations unnecessary and would have, in
management's opinion, restricted the Company's future ability to provide
services to its customers. Consequently, the Company did not utilize
approximately $3.7 million of the pretax charges. Essentially all of the
unutilized portion of the restructuring charge was reversed in the fourth
quarter ending June 30, 1999, resulting in a total pretax charge for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1999 of approximately $4.5 million.

    The level of Key's revenues, cash flows, losses and earnings are
substantially dependent upon, and affected by, the level of domestic and
international oil and gas exploration and development activity. See "Part
II--Item 7--Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition."

EQUITY OFFERING

    On May 7, 1999, the Company closed the public offering of 55,300,000 shares
of common stock (300,000 shares of which were sold pursuant to the underwriters'
over-allotment option discussed below) at $3.00 per share, or $166 million (the
"Public Offering"). In addition, the Company closed the offering of 3,508,772
shares of common stock at $2.85 per share, or $10 million (the "Concurrent
Offering" and

                                       5

together with the Public Offering, the "Equity Offering"). In addition, on June
7, 1999, the underwriters of the Public Offering exercised an over-allotment
option to purchase an additional 5,436,000 million shares to cover
over-allotments. Net proceeds from the Equity Offering were approximately $180.4
million, approximately $128.9 million of which was used to immediately repay a
portion of the Company's senior credit facility bank term loans (approximately
$106.6 million for the Tranche A term loan and approximately $22.2 million for
the Tranche B term loan) and $40.0 million of which was used, subsequent to the
Equity Offering, to repay a portion of the senior credit facility revolver.
After repayments and as of June 30, 1999, the outstanding loan balances were
approximately $43.4 million for the Tranche A term loan, approximately $177.8
million for the Tranche B term loan, and $90.0 million for the revolver. As a
result of the Equity Offering, total shares outstanding are approximately 82.7
million, an increase of approximately 347% over the amount outstanding
immediately prior to the Equity Offering. (see Note 10 to Consolidated Financial
Statements--Stockholders' Equity).

SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

    In connection with the Dawson Acquisition referred to below, the Company
entered a $550,000,000 Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, among Key
Energy Group, Inc., PNC Bank, National Association, Norwest Bank Texas, N.A.,
PNC Capital Markets, Inc. and the several lenders from time to time parties
thereto, dated as of June 6, 1997, as amended and restated through September 14,
1998 (the "Credit Agreement"). Between November 1998 and May 1999, the Credit
Agreement was amended to (i) reduce the maximum amount of credit available
thereunder to $500 million, (ii) change the interest rates payable thereunder,
(iii) ease required financial covenant levels, delete certain financial
covenants and add others, (iv) add a requirement that the Company achieve
certain minimum levels of trailing 12-month EBITDA, (v) tighten restrictions on
acquisitions, (vi) modify the amount to be prepaid if the Company issues
additional capital stock or if the Company has excess cash flow (as defined) or
if the Company sells certain specific assets, and (vii) provide minimum levels
of consolidated liquidity (as defined). (see Note 5 to Consolidated Financial
Statements--Long-Term Debt).

HIGH YIELD UNITS OFFERING

    On January 22, 1999, the Company completed the private placement of 150,000
units (the "Units") consisting of $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 14%
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the "Senior Subordinated Notes") and 150,000
warrants to purchase 2,032,565 shares of common stock at an exercise price of
$4.88125 per share (the "Unit Warrants"). The cash proceeds from the placement
were used to repay substantially all of the remaining $148.6 million principal
amount (plus accrued interest) owed under the Company's bridge loan facility
arranged in connection with the acquisition of Dawson Production Services, Inc.
in September 1998. Because the Equity Offering indirectly triggered certain
anti-dilution provisions applicable to the Unit Warrants, the aggregate number
of shares into which the Unit Warrants are exercisable was increased by an
additional 140,868 shares (see Note 5 to Consolidated Financial
Statements--Long-Term Debt).

DAWSON ACQUISITION

    In September 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the
capital stock of Dawson Production Services, Inc. ("Dawson") for an aggregate
consideration of approximately $382.6 million, including approximately $207.1
million of cash paid for the Dawson stock and for transactional fees and
approximately $175.5 million of net liabilities assumed.

    At the time of the closing, Dawson owned approximately 527 well service
rigs, 200 oilfield trucks, and 21 production testing units in South Texas and
the Gulf Coast, East Texas and Louisiana, the Permian Basin of West Texas and
New Mexico, the Anadarko Basin of Texas and Oklahoma, California, and in the
inland waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

                                       6

OTHER ACQUISITIONS

    In addition to its acquisition of Dawson, the Company acquired the assets or
capital stock of six well servicing and contract drilling businesses during
fiscal 1999, increasing its rig and truck fleet by a total of approximately 93
well service rigs, 4 drilling rigs and 185 oil fields trucks (and related
equipment) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $93.7 million in
cash. Along with Dawson, these acquisitions established the Company as the
leading oilfield trucking contractor in South Texas, enabled the Company to
expand into the Ontario, Canada well service and drilling market and provided
the Company with additional equipment and market share in the Rocky Mountain and
Four Corners regions.

                        DESCRIPTION OF LINES OF BUSINESS

    The Company's three lines of business are well servicing, contract drilling
and oil and natural gas production. The following is a description of each of
these lines of business (for financial information regarding these lines of
business, see Note 15 to Consolidated Financial Statements--Business Segment
Information).

WELL SERVICING

    The Company provides a full range of well services, including rig-based
services, oilfield trucking and ancillary oilfield services, necessary to
maintain and workover producing oil and gas wells. Rig-based services include:
maintenance of existing wells, completion of newly drilled wells, workovers of
existing wells, recompletion of existing wells (including horizontal
recompletions) and the plugging and abandonment of wells at the end of their
useful lives.

WELL SERVICE RIGS

    The Company utilizes its well service rig fleet to perform four major
categories of rig services to oil and gas operators.

    MAINTENANCE SERVICES.  The Company estimates that there are approximately
600,000 producing oil wells and approximately 300,000 producing natural gas
wells in the United States. While some wells in the United States flow oil to
the surface without mechanical assistance, most are in mature production areas
that require pumping or some other method of artificial lifting. Oil wells that
require pumping characteristically require more maintenance than flowing wells
due to the operation of the mechanical pumping equipment installed. Maintenance
services are therefore required on most producing oil 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, which are performed on both oil and
natural gas wells, but which are more commonly required on oil wells.

    Maintenance jobs are often performed on a series of wells in proximity to
each other and typically take less than 48 hours to complete per well. The
average cost of a maintenance job typically ranges between $800 and $1,500,
excluding the costs of parts, services and other vendors at the wellsite.

    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 in oil and gas
prices. Accordingly, maintenance services are generally the most stable type of
well service 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

                                       7

laterals. In less extensive workovers, the Company's rigs are used to seal off
depleted zones in existing well bores and to access previously bypassed
productive zones. The Company's workover rigs are also used to convert producing
wells to injection wells for enhanced recovery operations. Other workover
services include: major subsurface repairs such as casing repair or replacement,
recovery of tubing and removal of foreign objects in the well bore, repairing
downhole equipment failures, plugging back the bottom of a well to reduce the
amount of water being produced with the oil and natural gas, cleaning out and
recompleting a well if production has declined, and repairing leaks in the
tubing and casing. 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 project may last from a few days to several weeks. The average
cost of a workover project typically ranges between $2,000 and $25,000,
excluding the costs of parts, services and other vendors at the wellsite.

    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. As oil and gas
prices decrease, operators defer workovers due to insufficient rates of return
on workover projects and constrained liquidity. 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 at higher commodity prices
with correspondingly higher rates of return.

    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 rig and
workover package to assist in the 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 that the Company provides for an additional fee.
The average cost of a completion typically ranges between $3,000 and $10,000,
excluding the costs of parts, services and other vendors at the wellsite.

    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. As the number of newly drilled wells decrease,
the number of completion jobs correspondingly decreases. In addition, during
periods of weak drilling demand and particularly in connection with deeper gas
wells, drilling contractors may be able to price well completion work
competitively compared to a well service rig so that the drilling rig will be
used to complete the newly drilled well. Thus, excess drilling capacity could
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. The demand
for oil and gas does not significantly affect the demand for plugging and
abandonment services, as this activity is primarily driven by regulatory, lease,
and/or operator policy requirements.

OILFIELD TRUCKING

    The Company provides liquid/vacuum truck services and fluid transportation
and disposal services for operators whose wells produce, in addition to oil and
natural gas, saltwater and other fluids. These trucks are also utilized in
connection with drilling and workover projects, which tend to produce and use
large amounts of various oilfield fluids. In addition, the Company provides
haul/equipment trucks which are used to move large pieces of equipment from one
wellsite to the next.

                                       8

ANCILLARY OILFIELD SERVICES

    The Company provides ancillary oilfield services, which include among
others: hot oiling; wireline and production testing; frac tank rentals; well
site construction; roustabout services; fishing and other tool rentals;
supplying blowout preventers (BOPs); oilfield equipment sales; oilfield
equipment refurbishing; tubing testing; foam units and air drilling services;
and pipeline installation and inspection.

CONTRACT DRILLING

    The Company provides contract drilling services for major and independent
oil companies onshore the continental United States in the Permian Basin, the
Four Corners area, Michigan, the Northeast, the Gulf Coast, and the Rocky
Mountains, and internationally in Argentina and Ontario, Canada. Drilling rigs
come in a wide variety of sizes and capabilities, and may include specialized
equipment. The rigs are classified by their depth capabilities and by whether
their power systems are mechanical or diesel electric, with most of the
Company's rigs being classified as mechanical rigs. The depth ratings of the
Company's rigs range from 4,500 feet to 20,000 feet for an average of
approximately 8,700 feet.

OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION

    The Company is engaged in the production of oil and natural gas in the
Permian Basin and Panhandle areas of West Texas through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Odessa Exploration Incorporated ("Odessa Exploration"). Odessa
Exploration manages interests in producing oil and gas properties for its own
account and for drilling partnerships it sponsors. Odessa Exploration operates
oil and gas wells on behalf of over 250 working interest owners as well as for
its own account. On June 8, 1999, the Company announced that it had retained an
investment banking firm to provide advisory services in connection with a
contemplated sale of Odessa Exploration.

                               FOREIGN OPERATIONS

    The Company provides oilfield services in Argentina and Canada. The Company
currently owns 23 well servicing rigs, 45 oilfield trucks and seven drilling
rigs in Argentina and one well servicing rig, two oilfield trucks and three
drilling rigs in Ontario, Canada.

                                   CUSTOMERS

    Our customers include major oil and gas companies, foreign national oil and
gas companies and independent oil and gas companies. The Company had no single
customer in fiscal 1999 that accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenues.

                     COMPETITION AND OTHER EXTERNAL FACTORS

    Despite a significant amount of consolidation having occurred, the domestic
well servicing industry remains somewhat fragmented and includes a small number
of companies that are capable of competing effectively in the Company's well
servicing markets. Nonetheless, the Company believes that it is competitive in
terms of performance, equipment, safety, pricing, availability of equipment to
meet customer needs and availability of experienced, skilled personnel in those
regions in which it operates.

    In the well servicing markets, 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 increased emphasis on the safety records
and quality of the crews, equipment and services provided by their contractors.
The Company believes that such factors will be of increasing importance in the
future. The Company has devoted 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

                                       9

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.

    The Company competes not only with other regional oil and gas drilling
contractors but also with national oil and gas drilling companies, with larger
and more versatile rig fleets and better capital resources than the Company. In
addition, the number of drilling rigs continues to exceed demand in many of the
Company's drilling markets, resulting in a market that is more competitive than
well servicing. Nonetheless, the Company believes that it is competitive in
terms of performance, equipment, safety, pricing, availability of equipment to
meet customer needs and availability of experienced, skilled personnel in those
regions in which it operates.

    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, 1999, the Company employed approximately 7,250 persons
(approximately 7,210 in oilfield services, ten in oil and gas production and 30
in corporate). The Company's employees are not represented by a labor union and
are not covered by collective bargaining agreements. The Company has experienced
no work stoppages associated with labor disputes or grievances and considers its
relations with its employees to be satisfactory.

                           ENVIRONMENTAL 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 oilfield 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. Cleanup costs and other damages
arising as a result of environmental laws, and costs associated with changes in
environmental laws and regulations could be substantial and could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. From time to time,
claims have been made and litigation has been brought against the Company under
such laws. However, the costs incurred in connection with such claims and other
costs of environmental compliance have not had any material adverse effect on
the Company's operations or financial statements in the past, and management is
not currently aware of any situation or condition that it believes is likely to
have any such material adverse effect in the future. Management of the Company
believes that it conducts its operations 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 results during the three past fiscal years.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
         FINANCIAL CONDITION.

    Special Note: Certain statements set forth below under this caption
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Reform Act.
See "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for additional factors
relating to such statements.

    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 consolidated financial statements and related notes
appearing elsewhere in this report.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 VERSUS FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

    The Company's results of operations for the year ended June 30, 1999 reflect
the impact of a significant and unprecedented decline in demand for the
Company's equipment and services in all of the Company's lines of business
experienced from December 1998 to March 1999. The Company believes that the
decline in demand for its equipment and services during fiscal 1999 was due
solely to the adverse impact on its customers' capital spending caused by a
decline in oil prices to a twelve-year low of below $11.00 per barrel in
December 1998, and, to a lesser extent, a significant decline in natural gas
prices (see Part I--Item 1--"Major Developments During Fiscal 1999--Industry
Downturn, Company's Response and Recent Recovery"). Near the beginning of this
decline, during the first four months of fiscal 1999, the Company completed
seven acquisitions. While the positive impact of these fiscal 1999 acquisitions
(as well as the impact of a full 12 months of the prior fiscal year's
acquisitions) on the Company's revenues compensated for the negative revenue
impact of the decline in business, the acquisitions could not compensate for and
could only partially offset the Company's decline in net income (see Note 3 to
Consolidated Financial Statements--Business and Property Acquisitions).

THE COMPANY

    Revenues for the year ended June 30, 1999 increased $68,523,000, or 16%,
from $420,046,000 in fiscal 1998 to $488,569,000 in fiscal 1999, while net
income for fiscal 1999 decreased $77,433,000 from a positive $24,175,000 in
fiscal 1998 to a net loss of $53,258,000 in fiscal 1999. The increase in
revenues was primarily due to well servicing and contract drilling acquisitions
completed during the latter portion of fiscal 1998 and the early portion of
fiscal 1999, partially offset by a significant decline in equipment utilization
and, to a lesser extent, pricing of oilfield services throughout fiscal 1999.
The decrease in net income is due to the decline in equipment utilization and,
to a lesser extent, pricing of oilfield services during most of fiscal 1999 and
the existence of a high level of fixed costs and expenses, including
depreciation, depletion and amortization, general and administrative, and
interest. In addition, fiscal 1999 included charges for bad debt expense, debt
issuance costs and restructuring that were far greater than such charges taken
during fiscal 1998.

OPERATING REVENUES

    WELL SERVICING.  Well servicing revenues for the year ended June 30, 1999
increased $83,470,000 or 22%, from $374,845,000 in fiscal 1998 to $458,315,000
in fiscal 1999. The increase in revenues was primarily due to acquisitions
completed during the latter portion of fiscal 1998 and the early portion of
fiscal 1999 partially offset by a significant decline in equipment utilization
and, to a lesser extent, pricing of oilfield services throughout fiscal 1999.

    CONTRACT DRILLING.  Revenues from contract drilling activities for the year
ended June 30, 1999 decreased $12,388,000, or 35%, from $35,095,000 in fiscal
1998 to $22,707,000 in fiscal 1999. The decrease in revenues was primarily due
to a significant decline in equipment utilization and, to a lesser extent,
pricing of oilfield services throughout fiscal 1999 partially offset by
acquisitions completed during the latter portion of fiscal 1998 and the early
portion of fiscal 1999.

                                       14

    OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION.  Revenues from oil and natural gas
production activities for the year ended June 30, 1999 decreased $569,000, or
8%, from $7,030,000 in fiscal 1998 to $6,461,000 in fiscal 1999. The decrease in
revenues was primarily due to a 21% decrease in the price of oil and gas
received on a barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") basis in fiscal 1999, compared to
fiscal 1998, partially offset by a 16% increase, from fiscal 1998 to fiscal
1999, in the volume of oil and gas produced on a BOE basis.

OPERATING EXPENSES

    WELL SERVICING.  Well servicing expenses for the year ended June 30, 1999
increased $82,312,000, or 32%, from $259,495,000 in fiscal 1998 to $341,807,000
in fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to acquisitions completed during
the latter portion of fiscal 1998 and the early portion of fiscal 1999 partially
offset by a significant decline in equipment utilization and, to a lesser
extent, pricing of oilfield services throughout fiscal 1999. Well servicing
expenses, as a percentage of well servicing revenue, increased from 69% for
fiscal 1998 to 75% for fiscal 1999. The increase was due to a shift in revenue
mix from higher margin, higher priced well services to lower margin, lower
priced well services, reduced pricing for well services, and a lag in reducing
costs in response to declines in utilization and revenues.

    CONTRACT DRILLING.  Expenses related to contract drilling activities for the
year ended June 30, 1999 decreased $3,007,000, or 11%, from $26,473,000 in
fiscal 1998 to $23,466,000 in fiscal 1999. The decrease was primarily due to a
significant decline in equipment utilization and, to a lesser extent, pricing of
oilfield services throughout fiscal 1999 partially offset by acquisitions
completed during the latter portion of fiscal 1998 and the early portion of
fiscal 1999. Contract drilling expenses, as a percentage of contract drilling
revenues, increased from 75% in fiscal 1998 to 103% in fiscal 1999. The increase
was due to reduced pricing for contract drilling and a lag in reducing costs in
response to declines in utilization and revenues.

    OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION.  Expenses related to oil and natural gas
production activities for the year ended June 30, 1999 decreased $76,000, or 3%,
from $2,983,000 in fiscal 1998 to $2,907,000 in fiscal 1999. Oil and natural gas
production costs decreased from $6.55 per BOE in fiscal 1998 to $5.50 per BOE in
fiscal 1999. The decrease per BOE is primarily due to an increase in gas
production as compared to oil production, from the prior year, resulting from to
an acquisition of natural gas properties during the latter portion of fiscal
1998 and development drilling of natural gas wells during fiscal 1998 and the
early portion of fiscal 1999.

DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE

    The Company's depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the year
ended June 30, 1999 increased $31,073,000, or 100%, from $31,001,000 in fiscal
1998 to $62,074,000 in fiscal 1999. The increase is primarily due to an increase
in oilfield service depreciation resulting from the well servicing and contract
drilling acquisitions completed during the latter portion of fiscal 1998 and the
early portion of fiscal 1999.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

    The Company's general and administrative expenses for the year ended June
30, 1999 increased $14,121,000, or 36%, from $38,987,000 in fiscal 1998 to
$53,108,000 in fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to well servicing and
contract drilling acquisitions completed during the latter portion of fiscal
1998 and the early portion of fiscal 1999.

INTEREST EXPENSE

    The Company's interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1999 increased
$45,925,000, or 214%, from $21,476,000 in fiscal 1998 to $67,401,000 in fiscal
1999. The increase was primarily due to additional debt incurred in connection
with the well servicing and contract drilling acquisitions completed during the
latter portion of fiscal 1998 and the early portion of fiscal 1999 and, to a
lesser extent, higher interest rates and amortization of additional debt
issuance costs (see Note 5 to Consolidated Financial Statements-- Long Term
Debt).

                                       15

BAD DEBT EXPENSE

    The Company's bad debt expense for the year ended June 30, 1999 increased
$5,102,000, or 618%, from $826,000 in fiscal 1998 to $5,928,000 in fiscal 1999.
The increase was primarily due to the significant decline in commodity prices
and a corresponding deterioration in market conditions in fiscal 1999 causing a
small number of the Company's customers to become insolvent.

DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS

    During fiscal 1999, the Company recorded an expense of $6,307,000 which
represented the write-off of debt issuance costs. The debt issuance costs were
associated with the Company's bridge loan which was subsequently repaid using
the proceeds from the Company's private offering of 14% Senior Subordinated
Notes.

RESTRUCTURING CHARGE

    In response to an industry downturn caused by historically low oil and gas
prices and the resulting slowdown in business, on December 7, 1998, the Company
announced a company-wide restructuring plan to reduce operating costs beyond
those achieved through the Company's consolidation efforts. The plan involved a
reduction in the size of management and on-site work force, salary reductions
averaging 21% for senior management, the combination of previously separate
operating divisions and the elimination of redundant overhead and facilities.
The restructuring plan resulted in pretax charges to earnings of approximately
$6.7 million in the second quarter ending December 31, 1998 and $1.5 million in
the third quarter ending March 31, 1999. However, due to an increase in oil and
gas prices beginning during the Company's fourth fiscal quarter, the Company
amended its restructuring plan to decrease the number of planned employee
terminations. Increased demand for the Company's services made such terminations
unnecessary and would have, in management's opinion, restricted the Company's
ability to provide services to its customers. Consequently, the Company did not
utilize approximately $3.7 million of the pretax charges. Essentially all of the
unutilized portion of the restructuring charge was reversed in the fourth
quarter ending June 30, 1999 resulting in a total pretax charge for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1999 of approximately $4.5 million. The charges include
severance payments and other termination benefits for 97 employees, lease
commitments related to closed facilities and environmental studies performed on
closed leased yard locations.

INCOME TAXES

    The Company's income tax expense for the year ended June 30, 1999 decreased
$40,305,000 from an expense of $14,630,000 in fiscal 1998 to a benefit of
$25,675,000 in fiscal 1999. The decrease in income taxes is due to the decrease
in pretax income. The Company's effective tax rate for fiscal 1999 and 1998 was
32.5% and 37.7%, respectively. The fiscal 1999 effective tax benefit rate is
different from the statutory rate of 35% because of the disallowance of certain
goodwill amortization, other non-deductible expenses and state and local taxes.
The Company does not expect to be required to remit federal income taxes for the
next few fiscal years because of the availability of net operating loss
carryforwards from fiscal 1999 and previous years.

CASH FLOW

    The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended
June 30, 1999 decreased $54,352,000 from a positive $40,925,000 in fiscal 1998
to a negative $13,427,000 in fiscal 1999. The decrease is primarily due to the
decline in equipment utilization and, to a lesser extent, pricing of oilfield
services during throughout fiscal 1999 and the existence of a high level of
fixed costs, including general and administrative expenses and interest.

    The Company's net cash used in investing activities for the year ended June
30, 1999 decreased $11,685,000, or 4%, from $306,339,000 in fiscal 1998 to
$294,654,000 in fiscal 1999. The decrease is primarily due to decreased capital
expenditures resulting from reduced equipment utilization.

                                       16

    The Company's net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended
June 30, 1999 increased $57,319,000 or 23%, from $248,975,000 in fiscal 1998 to
$306,294,000 in fiscal 1999. The increase is primarily the result of proceeds
from borrowings and the Equity Offering.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 VERSUS FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

THE COMPANY

    Revenues for the year ended June 30, 1998 increased $257,621,000, or 159%,

income for fiscal 1998 increased $15,077,000, or 166%, from $9,098,000 in fiscal
1997 to $24,175,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily due to well
servicing and contract drilling acquisitions throughout fiscal 1998 and greater
demand for the Company's well servicing and contract drilling equipment and
services through the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

OPERATING INCOME

    WELL SERVICING.  Well servicing revenues for the year ended June 30, 1998
increased $230,460,000, or 160%, from $144,385,000 in fiscal 1997 to
$374,845,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase is primarily due to acquisitions
throughout fiscal 1998 and greater demand for the Company's well servicing and

from $6,975,000 in fiscal 1997 to $7,030,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase in
revenues is primarily due to a 26% increase, from fiscal 1997 to fiscal 1998, in
the volume of oil and gas produced on a BOE basis, offset by a 20% decrease in
the average price per BOE received in fiscal 1998 compared to fiscal 1997.

    WELL SERVICING.  Well servicing expenses for the year ended June 30, 1998
increased $159,129,000, or 159%, from $100,366,000 in fiscal 1997 to
$259,495,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily due to acquisitions made
throughout fiscal 1998 and greater demand for the Company's well servicing and
drilling equipment and services through the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

    CONTRACT DRILLING.  Expenses related to contract drilling activities for the
year ended June 30, 1998 increased $18,318,000, or 225%, from $8,155,000 in
fiscal 1997 to $26,473,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily due to
acquisitions throughout fiscal 1998.

production activities for the year ended June 30, 1998 increased $254,000, or
9%, from $2,729,000 in fiscal 1997 to $2,983,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase
was primarily due to an increase in the total number of producing oil and gas
wells from fiscal 1997 to fiscal 1998.

DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE

    The Company's depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the year
ended June 30, 1998 increased $19,925,000, or 180%, from $11,076,000 in fiscal
1997 to $31,001,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase is primarily due to an increase
in oilfield service depreciation resulting from the well servicing and contract
drilling acquisitions completed throughout fiscal 1998.

                                       17

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

    The Company's general and administrative expenses for the year ended June
30, 1998 increased $21,540,000, or 123%, from $17,447,000 in fiscal 1997 to
$38,987,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily due to the well and
servicing and contract drilling acquisitions throughout fiscal 1998.

INTEREST EXPENSE

    The Company's interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1998 increased
$13,597,000, or 173%, from $7,879,000 in fiscal 1997 to $21,476,000 in fiscal
1998. The increase was primarily the result of additional debt incurred in
connection with the well servicing and contract drilling acquisitions completed
throughout fiscal 1998.

BAD DEBT EXPENSE

    The Company's bad debt expense for the year ended June 30, 1998 increased
$728,000, or 743%, from $98,000 in fiscal 1997 to $826,000 in fiscal 1998. The
increase was primarily due to an increase in the Company's customer base
resulting from the acquisitions completed in fiscal 1998 and the latter portion
of fiscal 1997.

INCOME TAXES

    The Company's income tax expense increased $9,057,000, or 163%, from
$5,573,000 in income tax expense in fiscal 1997 to $14,630,000 in fiscal 1998.
The increase in income taxes is primarily due to the increase in operating
income. However, the Company was not required to remit the full amount of the
$14,630,000 in total federal income taxes for fiscal year 1998 because of the
availability of net operating loss carryforwards and accelerated depreciation.

CASH FLOW

    The Company's net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended
June 30, 1998 increased $40,082,000 from $843,000 in fiscal 1997 to $40,925,000
in fiscal 1998. The increase is primarily due to the well servicing and contract
drilling acquisitions made during fiscal 1998 and the latter portion of fiscal
1997.

    The Company's net cash used in investing activities for the year ended June
30, 1998 increased $225,590,000, or 279%, from $80,749,000 in fiscal 1997 to
$306,339,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase is primarily due to increased capital
expenditures for well servicing operations and well servicing and contract
drilling acquisitions.

    The Company's net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended
June 30, 1998 increased $131,576,000 or 112% from $117,399,000 in fiscal 1997 to
$248,975,000 in fiscal 1998. The increase is primarily due to proceeds from
long-term commercial paper and borrowings under the Company's existing
line-of-credit during fiscal 1998.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1.8 million for the
year ended June 30, 1999 from $25.3 million as of June 30, 1998 to $23.5 million
as of June 30, 1999.

    Assuming no significant improvements in industry conditions, the Company
projects approximately $32 million for oilfield service capital expenditures for
fiscal 2000 as compared to $31.3 million and $51.4 million in fiscal 1999 and
1998, respectively. Odessa Exploration has no projected capital outlays for
development costs for fiscal 2000, as compared to $0.3 million and $7.8 million
in fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company expects to finance its
capital expenditures using net cash provided by operating activities and
available credit. The Company believes that its cash flow and, to the extent
required, borrowings under the Credit Agreement, will be sufficient to fund such
expenditures.

                                       18

LONG-TERM DEBT

    Other than capital lease obligations and miscellaneous notes payable, the
Company's long-term debt is comprised of (i) a senior credit facility, (ii) a
series of 14% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2009, (iii) a series of 5%
Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2004, (iv) a series of 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures Due 2003, and (v) a series of 9 3/8% Senior Notes Due
2007.

SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

    In connection with the acquisition of Dawson, the Company entered into a
$550,000,000 Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 6,
1997, as amended and restated through September 14, 1998, among the Company, PNC
Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Norwest Bank Texas, N.A.,
as Collateral Agent, PNC Capital Markets, Inc., as Arranger, and the other
lenders named from time to time parties thereto (as subsequently amended, the
"Credit Agreement"). Between November 1998 and July 1999, the Credit Agreement
was amended to (i) reduce the maximum amount of credit available thereunder to
$500 million, (ii) change the interest rates payable thereunder, (iii) ease
required financial covenant levels, delete certain financial covenants and add
others (iv) add a requirement that the Company achieve certain minimum levels of
trailing 12-month EBITDA, as adjusted, (v) tighten restrictions on acquisitions,
(vi) modify the amount to be prepaid if the Company issues additional capital
stock or if the Company has excess cash flow (as defined) or if the Company
sells certain specific assets, and (vii) provide minimum levels of consolidated
liquidity.

    The Credit Agreement provides for a senior credit facility consisting of
$150 million in revolving loans, $150 million in Tranche A term loans and $200
million in Tranche B term loans. In addition, up to $20 million of letters of
credit can be issued under the Credit Agreement, but any outstanding letters of
credit reduces borrowing availability under the revolving loans. The Tranche A
term loans mature in sixteen consecutive quarterly installments commencing
December 14, 1999 with quarterly installment amounts equal to the applicable
percentage for a particular quarter multiplied by the unamortized principal
amount: 4% for installments 1 - 4, 6% for installments 5 - 8, 7% for
installments 9 - 12 and 8% for installments 13 - 16. The Tranche B term loans
mature in nineteen consecutive quarterly installments commencing December 14,
1999 with quarterly installment amounts equal to the applicable percentage for a
particular quarter multiplied by the unamortized principal amount: 0.25% for
installments 1 - 16, 24% for installments 17 - 18 and 48% for the final
installment. The commitment to make revolving loans will be reduced to $125
million and $100 million, respectively, on September 14, 2001 and September 14,
2002. The revolving commitment will terminate on September 14, 2003, and all the
revolving loans must be paid on or before that date.

    The revolving loans and the Tranche A term loans bear interest at rates
based upon, at the Company's option, either the prime rate plus a margin ranging
from 0.75% to 2.00% or a Eurodollar rate plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to
3.50%, in each case depending upon the ratio of the Company's total debt (less
cash on hand over $5 million) to the Company's trailing 12-month EBITDA, as
adjusted. The Tranche B term loans bear interest at rates based upon, at the
Company's option, either the prime rate plus 2.50% or a Eurodollar rate plus
4.00%. The Company pays commitment fees on the unused portion of the revolving
loan at a varying rate (depending upon the pricing ratio) of between 0.25% and
0.50%.

                                       19

    A portion of the net proceeds from the Company's equity offering (see Note
10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements--Stockholders' Equity) was used to
repay approximately $106.6 million of the Tranche A term loans and $22.2 million
of the Tranche B term loans, thereby reducing the principal amount outstanding,
as of June 30, 1999, under the Tranche A term loans to approximately $43.4
million and the principal amount outstanding, as of June 30, 1999, under the
Tranche B term loans to approximately $177.8 million. The Tranche A term loan
prepayments and Tranche B term loan prepayments were applied to reduce each of
the mandatory repayment installments of the Tranche A and Tranche B term loans,
respectively, pro rata, thereby equally reducing all amortization payments
without altering the amortization schedule. At June 30, 1999, there was
approximately $89,618,000 outstanding under the revolving loans. Additionally,
the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $10,832,000 as of June 30, 1999
related to its workman's compensation insurance.

    See Note 5 to Consolidated Financial Statements--Long Term Debt for further
discussion of the Senior Credit Facility.

14% SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES

    On January 22, 1999 pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the Company completed
the private placement of 150,000 units (the "Units") consisting of $150,000,000
of 14% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the "14% Senior Subordinated Notes")
and 150,000 warrants to purchase 2,032,565 shares of common stock at an exercise
price of $4.88125 per share (the "Unit Warrants"). The cash proceeds from the
private placement, net of fees and expenses, were used to repay substantially
all of the remaining $148.6 million principal amount (plus accrued interest)
owed under the Company's bridge loan facility arranged in connection with the
acquisition of Dawson.

    On and after January 15, 2004, the Company may redeem some or all of the 14%
Senior Subordinated Notes at any time at varying redemption prices in excess of
par, plus accrued interest. In addition, before January 15, 2002, the Company
may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior
Subordinated Notes with the proceeds of certain offerings of equity at 114% of
par, plus accrued interest.

    The Unit Warrants have separated from the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes and
will become exercisable on January 25, 2000. On the date of issuance, the value
of the Unit Warrants was estimated at $7,434,000 and is classified as a discount
to the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes on the Company's consolidated balance
sheet. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the
14% Senior Subordinated Notes. The 14% Senior Subordinated Notes mature and the
Unit Warrants expire on January 15, 2009. The 14% Senior Subordinated Notes are
subordinate to the Company's senior indebtedness, which, as defined in the
indenture under which the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes were issued, includes
borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes.

    At June 30, 1999, $150,000,000 principal amount of the 14% Senior
Subordinated Notes remained outstanding. The 14% Senior Subordinated Notes pay
interest semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning July
15, 1999.

5% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES

    On September 25, 1997, the Company completed an initial closing of its
private placement of $200 million of 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2004
(the "5% Convertible Subordinated Notes"). On October 7, 1997, the Company
completed a second closing of its private placement of an additional $16 million
of the 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes pursuant to the exercise of the
remaining portion of the over-allotment option granted to the initial purchasers
of the 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes. The placements were made as private
offerings pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. The
5% Convertible Subordinated Notes are subordinate to the Company's senior
indebtedness, which, as defined in the indenture under which the 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes

                                       20

were issued, includes borrowings under the Credit Agreement, the 14% Senior
Subordinated Notes and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes. The 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes are convertible, at the holder's option, into shares of the
Company's common stock at a conversion price of $38.50 per share, subject to
certain adjustments.

    The 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes are redeemable, at the Company's
option, on or after September 15, 2000, in whole or part, together with accrued
and unpaid interest. The initial redemption price is 102.86% for the year
beginning September 15, 2000 and declines ratably thereafter on an annual basis.

    At June 30, 1999, $216,000,000 principal amount of the 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes remained outstanding. Interest on the 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes is payable on March 15 and September 15. Interest of
approximately $5.4 million was paid on March 15, 1999.

7% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

    In July 1996, the Company completed a $52,000,000 private placement of 7%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2003 (the "7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures") pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures are subordinate to the Company's senior indebtedness,
which, as defined in the indenture under which the 7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures were issued, includes borrowings under the Current Credit Agreement,
the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes.

    The Debentures are convertible, at any time prior to maturity, at the
holders' option, into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price
of $9.75 per share, subject to certain adjustments. In addition, holders who
converted prior to July 1, 1999 were entitled to receive a payment, in cash or
the Company's common stock (at the Company's option) generally equal to 50% of
the interest otherwise payable from the date of conversion through July 1, 1999.

    The 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures are redeemable, at the option of
the Company, on or after July 15, 1999, at a redemption price of 104%,
decreasing 1% per year on each anniversary date thereafter.

    During fiscal 1998, $47,400,000 in principal amount of the Debentures was
converted into 4,861,538 shares of the Company's common stock. An additional
165,423 shares of common stock were issued representing 50% of the interest
otherwise payable from the date of conversion through July 1, 1999 and an
additional 35,408 shares of common stock were issued as an inducement to
convert. The additional 165,423 shares of common stock, representing 50% of the
interest otherwise payable from the date of conversion through July 1, 1999, are
included in equity. The fair value of the additional 35,408 shares of common
stock issued as inducement to convert was $710,186 and is recorded as interest
expense in the consolidated statement of operations. In addition, the
proportional amount of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the
converted 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures was charged to additional
paid-in capital at the time of conversion.

    At June 30, 1999, $4,600,000 principal amount of the 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures remained outstanding. Interest on the 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures is payable on January 1 and July 1 of each year.
Interest of approximately $161,000 was paid on July 1, 1998 and January 1, 1999.

DAWSON 9 3/8% SENIOR NOTES

    As the result of the Dawson acquisition, the Company, its subsidiaries and
U.S. Trust Company of Texas, N.A., trustee ("U.S. Trust"), entered into a
Supplemental Indenture dated September 21, 1998 (the "Supplemental Indenture"),
pursuant to which the Company assumed the obligations of Dawson under the
Indenture dated February 20, 1997 (the "Dawson Indenture") between Dawson and
U.S. Trust. Most of the Company's subsidiaries guaranteed those obligations and
the senior notes due 2007 (the "Dawson

                                       21

9 3/8% Senior Notes") issued pursuant to the Dawson Indenture were equally and
ratably secured with the obligations under the Credit Agreement. On November 17,
1998 the Company completed a cash tender offer to purchase the full $140,000,000
outstanding principal amount of Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes at 101% of the
aggregate principal amount of the notes, using borrowings under the Credit
Agreement. Under the tender offer, $138,594,000 in principal amount of the
Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes was redeemed and a premium of $1,386,000 was paid. In
addition, accrued interest of $4,078,000 was paid at redemption.

    At June 30, 1999, $1,406,000 principal amount of the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior
Notes remained outstanding. Interest on the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes is
payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year. Interest of approximately
$65,906 was paid on February 1, 1999.

                 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.

    In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" which, as amended, is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. The
Company is currently evaluating what effect, if any, this statement will have on
the Company's financial statements. The Company will adopt this statement no
later than July 1, 2000.

                       IMPACT OF INFLATION ON OPERATIONS

    Management is of the opinion that inflation has not had a significant impact
on the Company's business.

                                YEAR 2000 ISSUE

    Many older computer programs were written using a two-digit year instead of
a four-digit year. As a result, those computer programs may be unable to process
date-sensitive information in the year 2000 and beyond. This situation,
frequently referred to as the Year 2000 or Y2K issue, could cause a temporary
disruption of the ordinary course of business. Moreover, as a result of the
acquisitions completed by the Company over the past three years, the Company has
simultaneously utilized multiple management information systems in connection
with its business operations and financial reporting process. As a result of the
foregoing factors, the Company made an assessment of its Year 2000 issues in
early calendar year 1998, and at that time determined that many of these
management information systems might be adversely impacted by the arrival of the
Year 2000.

    Accordingly, for operational efficiency and to prevent any adverse impacts
that may result from the arrival of Year 2000, in July 1998 the Company
commenced the implementation of a new integrated management information system
along with updated hardware that replaced most of the systems previously
utilized by the Company. The implementation of the new integrated management
information system, which has been certified by its vendor to be Year 2000
compliant, is substantially complete. While this new management information
system does not cover the Company's Argentine operations, the Company is
currently implementing a separate management information system for its
Argentine operations that uses software that is virtually identical to the
Company's domestic management information system software, that the Company
expects to be in place in late calendar year 1999. Through June 30, 1999, the
Company has capitalized approximately $2,534,000 for its new management
information system.

    The inventory, assessment, modification and testing of smaller, less
critical, financial and operational systems have been substantially completed.
In addition, the assessment of systems embedded in the Company's buildings,
equipment and other infrastructures has also been completed. To date, there has
been no discovery of a significant non-compliant embedded system. The Company
has communicated with the suppliers, customers and financial institutions that
it considers to be material third parties and is

                                       22

evaluating its risks related to any possible failure of such third parties to be
year 2000 compliant. The effect, if any, on the Company's results of operations
arising from the failure of these third parties to be Year 2000 compliant is not
reasonably estimable at this time. Risk assessment and contingency plans related
to these parties are expected to be complete by the end of November 1999.
Contingency plans to mitigate the Company's risks from Year 2000-related
interruptions are being developed and are expected to be complete by the end of
November 1999.

    Although the Company believes that in a most reasonably likely worst case
scenario it will not be materially impacted by its or any third party
non-compliance, there can be no assurances that failure by the Company or by
third parties to fully implement appropriate Year 2000 plans will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. Adverse effects
on the Company could include, among other things: business disruptions (e.g.,
computer downtime and reversion to manual accounting records for billings,
payments and collections), increased costs, and loss of revenues.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

    Special Note: Certain statements set forth below under this caption
constitute "forward-looking statements". See "Special Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements" for additional factors relating to such statements.

    The primary objective of the following information is to provide
forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about Key's potential
exposure to market risks. The term "market risk" refers to the risk of loss
arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange risk, interest rates
and oil and gas prices. The disclosures are not meant to be precise indicators
of expected future losses, but rather indicators of reasonably possible losses.
This forward-looking information provides indicators of how Key views and
manages its ongoing market risk exposures.

                               INTEREST RATE RISK

    At June 30, 1999, Key had long-term debt outstanding of $699,978,000. Of
this amount, $368,545,000 or 52%, bears interest at fixed rates as follows:



                                                                                     (000'S)
                                                                                    BALANCE AT
                                                                                     6/30/99
                                                                                    ----------
                                                                                 
5% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2004........................................  $  216,000
14% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2009............................................     142,907
7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2003...................................       4,600
Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes Due 2007...............................................       1,406
Other (rates generally ranging from 8.0% to 8.5%).................................       3,632
                                                                                    ----------
                                                                                    $  368,545
                                                                                    ----------
                                                                                    ----------


    The remaining $331,433,000 of debt outstanding as of June 30, 1999 bears
interest at floating rates which averaged approximately 8.75% at the end of
1999. A 10% increase in short-term interest rates on the floating-rate debt
outstanding at the end of 1999 would equal approximately 87.5 basis points. Such
an increase in interest rates would increase Key's fiscal 2000 interest expense
by approximately $2.9 million assuming borrowed amounts remain outstanding (See
Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

    The above sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk excludes accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities because of the short-term
maturity of such instruments.

                                       23

                             FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

    Key's net assets, net earnings and cash flows from its Argentina
subsidiaries are currently not exposed to foreign currency risk, as Argentina's
currency is tied to the U. S. dollar. Key's net assets, net earnings and cash
flows from its Canadian subsidiary is based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of
such amounts measured in Canadian dollars. Assets and liabilities of the
Canadian operations are translated to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange
rate as of the end of a reporting period. Revenues, expenses and cash flow are
translated using the average exchange rate during the reporting period.

    A 10% change in the Canadian-to-U. S. Dollar exchange rate would not be
material to the net assets, net earnings or cash flows of Key.

                              COMMODITY PRICE RISK

    Key's major market risk exposure for its oil and gas production operations
is in the pricing applicable to its oil and gas sales. Realized pricing is
primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for crude oil and spot market
prices for natural gas. Pricing for oil and gas production has been volatile and
unpredictable for several years.

    Key periodically enters into financial hedging activities with respect to a
portion of its projected oil and natural gas production through commodity option
contracts whereby Key will receive a fixed price for its production if the
market price is in excess of the contract's stated price. Key pays a premium for
its option contracts. Such premiums are amortized to oil and gas revenues over
the life of the related option contracts. These financial hedging activities are
intended to support oil and natural gas prices at targeted levels and to manage
Key's exposure to oil and gas price fluctuations. Realized gains from the
settlement of these financial hedging instruments are recognized in oil and gas
sales when the associated production occurs. The gains and losses realized as a
result of these hedging activities are substantially offset in the cash market
when the hedged commodity is delivered. Key does not hold or issue derivative
instruments for trading purposes.

    As of June 30, 1999, Key had oil and gas price hedging instruments in place
which represented 22,000 barrels of oil production per month and approximately
100,000 Mmbtu of gas production per month. The total fiscal 2000 hedged oil and
gas volumes represent approximately 100% and 62%, respectively, of expected
calendar year total production. A 10% increase in the index price of oil or gas
from their levels at June 30, 1999 would have no impact on the Company's net
assets, net earnings or cash flows (as derived from commodity option contracts),
as the put options outstanding at June 30, 1999 are not "in-the-money" (See Note
8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

THE COMPANY

    Key Energy Services, Inc., formerly known as Key Energy Group, Inc. (the
"Company" or "Key"), is the largest onshore, rig-based well servicing contractor
in the world, with approximately 1,400 well service rigs and 1,200 oilfield
trucks as of June 30, 1999. The Company provides a complete range of well
services to major and independent oil and gas companies, including: rig-based
well maintenance, workover, completion, and re-completion services (including
horizontal recompletions); oilfield trucking; and ancillary oilfield services.
Key conducts well servicing operations onshore the continental United States in
the Gulf Coast (including South Texas, the Central Gulf Coast of Texas, South
Louisiana, and the ArkLaTex region), the Permian Basin of West Texas and Eastern
New Mexico, the MidContinent region (including the Anadarko, Hugoton and Arkoma
Basins), the Four Corners area (including the San Juan, Piceance, Uinta, and
Paradox Basins), the Eastern Region (including the Appalachian, Michigan and
Illinois Basins), the Rocky Mountains (including the Denver-Julesberg, Powder
River, Wind River, Green River and Williston Basins), and California (the San
Joaquin Basin), and internationally in Argentina and Ontario, Canada. The
Company is also a leading onshore drilling contractor, with 73 land drilling
rigs as of June 30, 1999. Key conducts land drilling operations in a number of
major domestic producing basins, as well as in Argentina and in Ontario, Canada.
Key also produces and develops oil and natural gas reserves in the Permian Basin
and Texas Panhandle.

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.

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 oilfield service parts and supplies
held for consumption and parts and supplies held for sale at the Company's
various retail supply stores, are valued at the lower of average cost or market.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

    The Company provides for depreciation and amortization of oilfield service
and related equipment using the straight-line method, excluding its drilling
rigs, over the following estimated useful lives of the assets:



DESCRIPTION                                                                               YEARS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  ---------
                                                                                     
Well service rigs.....................................................................         25
Motor vehicles........................................................................          5
Furniture and equipment...............................................................        3-7
Buildings and improvements............................................................      10-40
Gas processing facilities.............................................................         10
Disposal wells........................................................................      15-30
Trucks, trailers and related equipment................................................       7-15


    The components of a well service rig that generally require replacement
during the rig's life are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, which
range from three to 15 years. The basic rigs, excluding components, have
estimated useful lives from date of original manufacture ranging from 25 to 35
years. Salvage values are assigned to the rigs based on an estimate of 10%.

    Effective July 1, 1998, the Company made certain changes in the estimated
useful lives of its well service rigs, increasing the lives from 17 years to 25
years. This change decreased the net loss for the twelve months ended June 30,
1999 by approximately $3,100,000 ($0.11 per share-basic). Had this change been
made effective July 1, 1997, the effect would have increased net income for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1998 by $1,317,000 ($0.08 per share-basic). This
change was made to better reflect the expected utilization of these assets over
time, to better provide matching of revenues and expenses and to better reflect
the industry standard in regards to estimated useful lives of workover rigs.

    Effective July 1, 1997 the Company changed its method of calculating
depreciation on its drilling rigs from the straight-line method to the
units-of-production method. This method takes into consideration the number of
days the rigs are actually in service each month and depreciation is recorded
for at least 15 days each month for each rig that is available for service. The
Company believes that this method more appropriately reflects its financial
results by better matching revenues with expenses and to better reflect how the
assets are to be used over time. The effect of this change on net income for
fiscal 1998, 1997 and 1996 was not material.

    The Company uses 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
units-of-production method.

    The Company has adopted FASB Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of."
This statement requires that long-lived assets including certain identifiable
intangibles, held and used by the Company, be reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. For purposes of applying this statement, the Company
groups its long-lived assets, including goodwill, on a yard-by-yard basis and
compares the estimated future cash flows of each yard to the yard's

net carrying value. The Company would record an impairment, reducing the yard's
net carrying value to an estimated fair value, if the estimated future cash
flows were less than the yard's net carrying value. Since adoption of this
statement no impairment losses have been required.

HEDGING AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    The Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily commodity
option contracts to reduce the exposure of its oil and gas producing operations
to changes in the market price of natural gas and crude oil and to fix the price
for natural gas and crude oil independently of the physical sale.

    The financial instruments that the Company accounts for as hedging contracts
must meet the following criteria: the underlying asset or liability must expose
the Company to price risk that is not offset in another asset or liability, the
hedging contract must reduce that price risk, and the instrument must be
designated as a hedge at the inception of the contract and throughout the
contract period. In order to qualify as a hedge, there must be clear correlation
between changes in the fair value of the financial instrument and the fair value
of the underlying asset or liability such that changes in the market value of
the financial instrument will be offset by the effect of price rate changes on
the exposed items.

    Premiums paid for commodity option contracts, which qualify as hedges, are
amortized to oil and gas sales over the terms of the contracts. Unamortized
premiums are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Amounts
receivable under the commodity option contracts are accrued as an increase in
oil and gas sales for the applicable periods.

    In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS
133"). SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that
every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded
in other contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or
liability measured at its fair value. SFAS 133 requires that changes in the
derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges
allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged
item in the income statement. Companies must formally document, designate, and
assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting. SFAS 133
is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS 133 cannot be
applied retroactively and must be applied to (a) derivative instruments and (b)
certain derivative instruments embedded in hybrid contracts that were issued,
acquired, or substantively modified after December 31, 1997 (and, at the
Company's election, before January 1, 1998.) The Company has not yet quantified
the impact of adopting SFAS 133 on its financial statements and has not
determined the timing of or method of adoption of SFAS 133.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

    The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130") effective July 1, 1998. SFAS 130
establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and
its components. SFAS 130 requires that all items that are required to be
recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be
reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as
other financial statements. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 130, the
Company has presented the components of comprehensive income in its Consolidated
Statements of Comprehensive Income.

                          JUNE 30, 1999, 1998 AND 1997

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
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 adverse 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 non-capital nature are recorded when environmental assessment and/or
remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated.

GOODWILL

    Goodwill, totaling $216.9 million and $47.2 million at June 30, 1999 and
1998, respectively, represents the cost in excess of fair value of the net
tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in
purchase transactions. Goodwill of $169.7 million and $37.1 million was added in
1999 and 1998, respectively. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line
basis over periods ranging from ten to 25 years and is recorded net of
accumulated amortization of $11.5 million and $2.3 million at June 30, 1999 and
1998, respectively. Amortization of goodwill for fiscal 1999, 1998 and 1997 was
$9,202,000, $1,442,000 and $622,000, respectively. The carrying amount of
unamortized goodwill is reviewed for potential impairment loss whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may
not be recoverable (see Property and Equipment above, for further discussion).

DEFERRED COSTS

    Deferred costs totaling $30,488,000 and $14,213,000 at June 30, 1999 and
1998, respectively, represent debt issuance costs and are recorded net of
accumulated amortization of $6,709,000 and $2,044,000 at June 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. Deferred costs are amortized to interest expense using the
straight-line method over the life of each applicable debt instrument.
Amortization of deferred costs totaled $4,664,000, $2,006,000 and $344,000 for
fiscal 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

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 statutory 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 statutory 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.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
EARNINGS PER SHARE

    The Company accounts for earnings per share upon Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS 128"). Under SFAS 128,
basic 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. Diluted earnings per common share is based
on the increased number of shares that would be outstanding assuming conversion
of dilutive outstanding convertible securities using the "as if converted"
method.

    The fiscal 1999 earnings per share calculation excludes the Company's
convertible debt, outstanding warrants and stock options, because the effects of
such instruments on earning per share would be anti-dilutive.

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. This may

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
affect the Company's overall exposure to credit risk either positively or
negatively, in as much as its customers are affected by economic conditions in
the oil and gas industry, which have historically been cyclical. However,
account receivables 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 or
material-man's lien on the well serviced. The Company maintains reserves for
potential credit losses, and such losses have been within management's
expectations.

    The Company did not have any one customer who represented 10% or more of
consolidated revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 or 1998. During
the year ended June 30, 1997, the Company had sales to one customer, which
totaled 13% of consolidated revenues.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

    The Company accounts for stock option grants to employees using the
intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"). Under the Company's stock
incentive plans, the price of the stock on the grant date is the same as the
amount an employee must pay to exercise the option to acquire the stock;
accordingly, the options have no intrinsic value at grant date, and in
accordance with the provisions of APB 25, no compensation cost is recognized.

    In October 1995, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", which sets forth
alternative accounting and disclosure requirements for stock-based compensation
arrangements. SFAS 123 does not rescind the existing accounting for employee
stock-based compensation under APB 25. Companies may continue to follow the
current accounting to measure and recognize employee stock-based compensation;
however, SFAS 123 requires disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per
share that would have been reported under the "fair value" based recognition
provisions of SFAS 123. The Company has disclosed in Note 10 the pro forma
information required under SFAS 123.

FOREIGN CURRENCY GAINS AND LOSSES

    The local currency is the functional currency for all of the Company's
foreign operations (Argentina and Canada). The cumulative translation gains and
losses, resulting from translating each foreign subsidiary's financial
statements from the functional currency to U.S. dollars, is included in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity until a partial or complete sale
or liquidation of the Company's net investment in the foreign entity.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

    The Company considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments with less
than a three-month maturity when purchased, as cash equivalents.

IMPACT OF INFLATION ON OPERATIONS

    Although in the complex environment of today's economy 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.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

    Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 1998 and 1997
consolidated financial statements to conform to the fiscal 1999 presentation.

2. RESTRUCTURING CHARGE

    In response to an industry downturn caused by historically low oil and gas
prices and the resulting slowdown in business, on December 7, 1998, the Company
announced a company-wide restructuring plan to reduce operating costs beyond
those achieved through the Company's consolidation efforts. The plan involved a
reduction in the size of management and on-site work force, salary reductions
averaging 21% for senior management, the combination of previously separate
operating divisions and the elimination of redundant overhead and facilities.
The restructuring plan resulted in pretax charges to earnings of approximately
$6.7 million in the second quarter ending December 31, 1998 and $1.5 million in
the third quarter ending March 31, 1999. However, due to an increase in oil and
gas prices beginning during the Company's fourth fiscal quarter, the Company
amended its restructuring plan to decrease the number of planned employee
terminations. Increased demand for the Company's services made such terminations
unnecessary and would have, in management's opinion, restricted the Company's
ability to provide services to its customers. Consequently, the Company did not
utilize approximately $3.7 million of the pretax charges. Essentially all of the
unutilized portion of the restructuring charge was reversed in the fourth
quarter ending June 30, 1999 resulting in a total pretax charge for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1999 of approximately $4.5 million. The charges include
severance payments and other termination benefits for approximately 97
employees, lease commitments related to closed facilities and environmental
studies performed on closed leased yard locations. The Company has substantially
completed the plan at June 30, 1999, however, there remains approximately
$180,000 for COBRA benefits to terminated employees and $53,000 for contractual
payments to an employee. The major components of the restructuring charge and
costs incurred to date are as follows:



                                                              COSTS INCURRED

                                                                    ---------


    At the time of the closing, Dawson owned approximately 527 well service
rigs, 200 oilfield trucks, and 21 production testing units in South Texas and
the Gulf Coast, East Texas and Louisiana, the Permian Basin of West Texas and
New Mexico, the Anadarko Basin of Texas and Oklahoma, California, and in the
inland waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

    In connection with the Dawson acquisition, the Company recognized
liabilities for the estimated costs to involuntarily terminate employees of
Dawson and to exist certain activities of Dawson, primarily Dawson's lease
liability for its corporate offices. As of June 30, 1999, the Company had
completed its severance plan, terminating 44 former Dawson employees. At June
30, 1999, the Company had $592,000 accrued, representing the estimated lease
termination costs of Dawson's former corporate offices.

OTHER FISCAL 1999 ACQUISITIONS

    In addition to its acquisition of Dawson, the Company acquired the assets
and/or capital stock of six well servicing and contract drilling businesses
during fiscal 1999, increasing its rig and truck fleet by a total of
approximately 93 well service rigs, 4 drilling rigs and 185 oilfield trucks (and
related equipment) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $93.7
million in cash. Each of the acquisitions was accounted for using the purchase
method and the results of the operations, generated from the acquired assets,
are included in the Company's results of operations as of the completion date of
each acquisition.

ACQUISITIONS COMPLETED PRIOR TO JUNE 30, 1998

    During fiscal 1998, the Company purchased the capital stock of 17 companies
and purchased the assets of 13 other companies. The Company paid cash of
approximately $244 million, excluding purchase price adjustments, and issued
common stock and warrants to purchase the Company's common stock valued at
approximately $13.8 million. During fiscal 1997, the Company purchased the
common stock of 10 companies and purchased the assets of 8 other companies. The
Company paid cash of approximately $62 million, excluding purchase price
adjustments, and issued common stock valued at approximately $21 million. Each
of the acquisitions was accounted for using the purchase method and the results
of operations of the acquisitions were included in the Company's results of
operations as of the date of completion of each acquisition.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    Various suits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business are
pending against the Company. Management does not believe that the disposition of
any of these items will result in a material adverse impact to the consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

    In order to retain qualified senior management, the Company enters into
employment agreements with its executive officers. These employment agreements
run for periods ranging from three to five years, but can be automatically
extended on a yearly basis unless terminated by the Company or the executive
officer. In addition to providing a base salary for each executive officer, the
employment agreements provide for severance payments for each executive officer
varying from 1 to 3 years of the executive officer's base salary. The current
annual base salaries for the officers covered under such employment agreements
total approximately $1,280,000. The Company also enters into employment
agreements with other key employees as it deems necessary in order to retain
qualified personnel.

(i) SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

    On June 6, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Initial Credit
Agreement") with PNC Bank, N.A. ("PNC"), as administrative agent, and a
syndication of other lenders 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 was LIBOR
plus 2.75%. The interest rate on the revolver varied based on LIBOR and the
level of the Company's indebtedness. On September 25, 1997, the Company repaid
the term loan and a portion of the then outstanding amounts under the revolver
by applying the proceeds from the Company's private placement of the 5%
Convertible Subordinated Notes discussed below.

    Effective November 6, 1997, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement (the "Amended Credit Agreement") with PNC, as administrative
agent and lender, pursuant to which PNC agreed to make revolving credit loans of
up to a maximum loan commitment of $200 million. Borrowings under the Amended
Credit Agreement were, at the Company's option, either (i) Eurodollar Loans with
interest payable quarterly at LIBOR plus 1.25%, (ii) Base Rate Loans with
interest payable quarterly at the greater of PNC Prime Rate or the Federal Funds
Effective Rate plus 0.50%, or (iii) a combination thereof. Effective December 3,
1997, PNC completed the syndication of the Amended Credit Agreement. In
connection therewith, PNC, as administrative agent, a syndication of lenders and
the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Amended Credit Agreement
providing for, among other things, an increase in the maximum commitment to $250
million from $200 million.

    The terms of the Amended Credit Agreement remained unchanged until the
Company's acquisition of Dawson. In connection with the acquisition of Dawson,
the Company entered into a $550,000,000 Second Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement, dated as of June 6, 1997, as amended and restated through September
14, 1998, among the Company, PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative
Agent, Norwest Bank Texas, N.A., as Collateral Agent, PNC Capital Markets, Inc.,
as Arranger, and the

other lenders named from time to time parties thereto (as subsequently amended,
the "Current Credit Agreement"). Between November 1998 and July 1999, the
Current Credit Agreement was amended to (i) reduce the maximum amount of credit
available thereunder to $500 million, (ii) change the interest rates payable
thereunder, (iii) ease required financial covenant levels, delete certain
financial covenants and add others (iv) add a requirement that the Company
achieve certain minimum levels of trailing 12-month EBITDA, as adjusted, (v)
tighten restrictions on acquisitions, (vi) modify the amount to be prepaid if
the Company issues additional capital stock or if the Company has excess cash
flow (as defined) or if the Company sells certain specific assets, and (vii)
provide minimum levels of consolidated liquidity.

    The Current Credit Agreement provides for a senior credit facility
consisting of $150 million in revolving loans, $150 million in Tranche A term
loans and $200 million in Tranche B term loans. In addition, up to $20 million
of letters of credit can be issued under the Current Credit Agreement, but any
outstanding letters of credit reduces borrowing availability under the revolving
loans. The Tranche A term loans mature in sixteen consecutive quarterly
installments commencing December 14, 1999 with quarterly installment amounts
equal to the applicable percentage for a particular quarter multiplied by the
unamortized principal amount: 4% for installments 1 - 4, 6% for installments
5-8, 7% for installments 9 - 12 and 8% for installments 13 - 16. The Tranche B
term loans mature in nineteen consecutive quarterly installments commencing
December 14, 1999 with quarterly installment amounts equal to the applicable
percentage for a particular quarter multiplied by the unamortized principal
amount: 0.25% for installments 1 - 16, 24% for installments 17-18 and 48% for
the final installment. The commitment to make revolving loans will be reduced to
$125 million and $100 million, respectively, on September 14, 2001 and September
14, 2002. The revolving commitment will terminate on September 14, 2003, and all
the revolving loans must be paid on or before that date.

    The revolving loans and the Tranche A term loans bear interest at rates
based upon, at the Company's option, either the prime rate plus a margin ranging
from 0.75% to 2.00% or a Eurodollar rate plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to
3.50%, in each case depending upon the ratio of the Company's total debt (less
cash on hand over $5 million) to the Company's trailing 12-month EBITDA, as
adjusted. The Tranche B term loans bear interest at rates based upon, at the
Company's option, either the prime rate plus 2.50% or a Eurodollar rate plus
4.00%. The Company pays commitment fees on the unused portion of the revolving
loan at a varying rate (depending upon the pricing ratio) of between 0.25% and
0.50%.

    The Current Credit Agreement contains various financial covenants,
including: (i) consolidated debt-to-capitalization ratio at generally decreasing
levels varying between 79% and 65%, (ii) consolidated interest coverage ratio at
generally increasing levels varying between 2.00-to-1.00 and 3.50-to-1.00, (iii)
consolidated senior leverage ratio at generally decreasing levels varying
between 2.50-to-1.00 and 2.00-to-1.00, and (iv) trailing 12-month EBITDA, as
adjusted, at generally increasing levels varying between $50 million and $150
million. In addition, the Company must maintain a consolidated fixed charge
coverage ratio at generally decreasing levels varying between 1.25-to-1.00 and
1.00 to 1.00. The covenants for consolidated senior leverage ratio and
consolidated interest coverage ratio are not imposed until the quarter ending
March 31, 2001, and the covenant levels for consolidated debt-to-capitalization
and trailing 12-month EBITDA, as adjusted, will remain fixed at 79% and $50
million, respectively, for the same period. The Company is also required to
maintain a consolidated liquidity level of at least $30 million.

5. LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED)
    The Current Credit Agreement subjects the Company to other restrictions,
including restrictions upon the Company's ability to incur additional debt,
liens and guarantee obligations, to merge or consolidate with other persons, to
sell assets, to make dividends, purchases of our stock or subordinated debt, to
make capital expenditures in excess of levels ranging from $37.5 million in
fiscal 1999 to $65 million in fiscal 2004, or to make investments, loans and
advances or changes to debt instruments and organizational documents. The
Company will not be permitted to make acquisitions unless (i) its consolidated
debt to capitalization ratio is not more than 60% or (ii) its consolidated debt
to capitalization ratio is not increased and the acquisition is funded solely
with capital stock. The Company must also maintain consolidated net worth of (i)
at least, $195 million plus (ii) 75% of consolidated net income for each fiscal
quarter beginning with the period ending December 31, 1998, 75% of the net cash
proceeds from issuance of capital stock after September 14, 1998 and 75% of the
increase in consolidated net worth resulting from the conversion of the 5%
Convertible Subordinated Notes or other convertible debt issued after September
14, 1998.

    All obligations under the senior credit facility are guaranteed by most of
the Company's subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all the Company's
assets, including the Company's accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.

    The term loans under the Current Credit Agreement, must be prepaid from (i)
100% of the net cash proceeds of up to $75 million in issuances of the Company's
equity and 55% of the net cash proceeds of issuances of the Company's equity
above $75 million up to $165.75 million and 25% of the net cash proceeds of
issuances of the Company's equity above $165.75 million and (ii) unless required
percentages of the lenders otherwise agree, 75% of the Company's excess cash
flow (as defined) for each fiscal year until the Company's debt-to
capitalization ratio (as defined) is less than 60% and 50% of the Company's
excess cash flow for each fiscal year thereafter. A portion of the net proceeds
from the Company's equity offering (see Note 10) was used to repay approximately
$106.6 million of the Tranche A term loans and $22.2 million of the Tranche B
term loans, thereby reducing the principal amount outstanding as of June 30,
1999 under the Tranche A term loans to approximately $43.4 million and the
principal amount outstanding as of June 30, 1999 under the Tranche B term loans
to approximately $177.8 million. The Tranche A term loan prepayments and Tranche
B term loan prepayments were applied to reduce each of the mandatory repayment
installments of the Tranche A and Tranche B term loans, respectively, pro rata,
thereby equally reducing all amortization payments without altering the
amortization schedule.

    At June 30, 1999, there was approximately $89,618,000 outstanding under the
revolving loans. Additionally, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of
$10,832,000 and $2,612,000 as of June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, related
to its workman's compensation insurance.

(ii) BRIDGE LOAN

    In connection with the Dawson acquisition, the Company entered into a bridge
loan agreement in the amount of $150,000,000, dated as of September 14, 1998,
among the Company, Lehman Brothers Inc., as Arranger, and Lehman Commercial
Paper Inc., as Administrative Agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the
"Bridge Loan Agreement"). Interest under the Bridge Loan Agreement accrued at
LIBOR plus 6.50% and was payable on the 16th day of each month beginning October
16, 1998. The Bridge Loan was repaid in January 1999 with proceeds from the
Company's issuance of the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes.

(iii) 14% SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES

    On January 22, 1999 pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the Company completed
the private placement of 150,000 units (the "Units") consisting of $150,000,000
of 14% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the "14% Senior Subordinated Notes")
and 150,000 warrants to purchase 2,032,565 shares of common stock at an exercise
price of $4.88125 per share (the "Unit Warrants"). The cash proceeds from the
private placement, net of fees and expenses, were used to repay substantially
all of the remaining $148.6 million principal amount (plus accrued interest)
owed under the Bridge Loan Agreement.

    On and after January 15, 2004, the Company may redeem some or all of the 14%
Senior Subordinated Notes at any time at varying redemption prices in excess of
par, plus accrued interest. In addition, before January 15, 2002, the Company
may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 14% Senior
Subordinated Notes with the proceeds of certain offerings of equity at 114% of
par, plus accrued interest.

    The Unit Warrants have separated from the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes and
will become exercisable on January 25, 2000. On the date of issuance, the value
of the Unit Warrants was estimated at $7,434,000 and is classified as a discount
to the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes on the Company's consolidated balance
sheet. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the
14% Senior Subordinated Notes. The 14% Senior Subordinated Notes mature and the
Unit Warrants expire on January 15, 2009. The 14% Senior Subordinated Notes are
subordinate to the Company's senior indebtedness, which, as defined in the
indenture under which the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes were issued, includes
borrowings under the Current Credit Agreement and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior
Notes.

    In the event of a change in control of the Company, as defined in the
indenture under which the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes were issued, each holder
of 14% Senior Subordinated Notes will have the right, at the holder's option, to
require the Company to repurchase all or any part of the holder's 14% Senior
Subordinated Notes, within 60 days of such event, at a price equal to 100% of
the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

    At June 30, 1999, $150,000,000 principal amount of the 14% Senior
Subordinated Notes remained outstanding. The 14% Senior Subordinated Notes pay
interest semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning July
15, 1999.

(iv) 5% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES

    On September 25, 1997, the Company completed an initial closing of its
private placement of $200 million of 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2004
(the "5% Convertible Subordinated Notes"). On October 7, 1997, the Company
completed a second closing of its private placement of an additional $16 million
of the 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes pursuant to the exercise of the
remaining portion of the over-allotment option granted to the initial purchasers
of the 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes. The placements were made as private
offerings pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. The
5% Convertible Subordinated Notes are subordinate to the Company's senior
indebtedness, which, as defined in the indenture under which the 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes were issued, includes borrowings under the Current Credit
Agreement, the 14% Senior Subordinated

Notes and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes. The 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes
are convertible, at the holder's option, into shares of the Company's common
stock at a conversion price of $38.50 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

    The 5% Convertible Subordinated Notes are redeemable, at the Company's
option, on or after September 15, 2000, in whole or part, together with accrued
and unpaid interest. The initial redemption price is 102.86% for the year
beginning September 15, 2000 and declines ratably thereafter on an annual basis.

    In the event of a change in control of the Company, as defined in the
indenture under which the Notes were issued, each holder of 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes will have the right, at the holder's option, to require the
Company to repurchase all or any part of the holder's 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes, within 60 days of such event, at a price equal to 100% of
the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

    At June 30, 1999, $216,000,000 principal amount of the 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes remained outstanding. Interest on the 5% Convertible
Subordinated Notes is payable on March 15 and September 15. Interest of
approximately $5.4 million was paid on March 15, 1999.

(v) 7% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

    In July 1996, the Company completed a $52,000,000 private placement of 7%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2003 (the "7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures") pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures are subordinate to the Company's senior indebtedness,
which, as defined in the indenture under which the 7% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures were issued, includes borrowings under the Current Credit Agreement,
the 14% Senior Subordinated Notes and the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes.

    The Debentures are convertible, at any time prior to maturity, at the
holders' option, into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price
of $9.75 per share, subject to certain adjustments. In addition, holders who
converted prior to July 1, 1999 were entitled to receive a payment, in cash or
the Company's common stock (at the Company's option) generally equal to 50% of
the interest otherwise payable from the date of conversion through July 1, 1999.

    The 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures are redeemable, at the option of
the Company, on or after July 15, 1999, at a redemption price of 104%,
decreasing 1% per year on each anniversary date thereafter. In the event of a
change in control of the Company, as defined in the indenture under which the 7%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures were issued, each holder will have the
right, at the holder's option, to require the Company to repurchase all or any
part of the holder's 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures within 60 days of
such event at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together
with accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

    During fiscal 1998, $47,400,000 in principal amount of the Debentures was
converted into 4,861,538 shares of the Company's common stock. An additional
165,423 shares of common stock were issued representing 50% of the interest
otherwise payable from the date of conversion through July 1, 1999 and an
additional 35,408 shares of common stock were issued as an inducement to
convert. The additional 165,423 shares of common stock, representing 50% of the
interest otherwise payable from the date of

conversion through July 1, 1999, are included in equity. The fair value of the
additional 35,408 shares of common stock issued as inducement to convert was
$710,186 and is recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statement of
operations. In addition, the proportional amount of unamortized debt issuance
costs associated with the converted 7% Convertible Subordinated Debentures was
charged to additional paid-in capital at the time of conversion.

    At June 30, 1999, $4,600,000 principal amount of the 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures remained outstanding. Interest on the 7% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures is payable on January 1 and July 1 of each year.
Interest of approximately $161,000 was paid on July 1, 1998 and January 1, 1999.

(vi) DAWSON 9 3/8% SENIOR NOTES

    As the result of the Dawson acquisition (see Note 3), the Company, its
subsidiaries and U.S. Trust Company of Texas, N.A., trustee ("U.S. Trust"),
entered into a Supplemental Indenture dated September 21, 1998 (the
"Supplemental Indenture"), pursuant to which the Company assumed the obligations
of Dawson under the Indenture dated February 20, 1997 (the "Dawson Indenture")
between Dawson and U.S. Trust. Most of the Company's subsidiaries guaranteed
those obligations and the senior notes due 2007 (the "Dawson 9 3/8% Senior
Notes") issued pursuant to the Dawson Indenture were equally and ratably secured
with the obligations under the Current Credit Agreement. On November 17, 1998
the Company completed a cash tender offer to purchase the full $140,000,000
outstanding principal amount of Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes at 101% of the
aggregate principal amount of the notes, using borrowings under the Current
Credit Agreement. Under the tender offer, $138,594,000 in principal amount of
the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes was redeemed and a premium of $1,386,000 was
paid. In addition, accrued interest of $4,078,000 was paid at redemption.

    At June 30, 1999, $1,406,000 principal amount of the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior
Notes remained outstanding. Interest on the Dawson 9 3/8% Senior Notes is

6. DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS

    During fiscal 1999, the Company recorded an expense item of $6,307,000 which
represented the write-off of debt issuance costs. The debt issuance costs were
associated with the Bridge Loan Agreement, which was subsequently paid primarily
with the proceeds from the Company's private placement of 14% Senior
Subordinated Notes (see Note 5).

    The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
of each class of financial instruments:

    Cash, trade receivables and trade payables: The carrying amounts approximate
fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

    Commodity option contracts: The carrying amount of the commodity option
contracts is comprised of the unamortized premiums paid for the option
contracts. The fair value of the commodity option contracts is estimated using
the discounted forward prices of each options index price, for the term of each
option contract.

    Notes receivable-affiliate: The amounts reported relate to notes receivable
from officers of the Company.

    Long-term debt: The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is based upon
the quoted market prices for the various notes and debentures at June 30, 1999
and 1998, and the carrying amounts outstanding under the Company's senior credit
facility.

8. 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 counter-parties to its commodity hedges. The Company only
deals with reputable financial institutions as counter-parties and anticipates
that such counter-parties 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 counter-parties.

    The Company utilizes option contracts to hedge the effect of price changes
on future oil and gas production. The objective of its hedging activities is to
achieve more predictable revenues and cash flows. If market prices of oil and
gas exceeded the strike price of put options, the options would expire
unexercised, therefore reducing the effective price received for oil and gas
sales by the cost of the related option. If the strike price of put options
exceeds the market prices of oil and gas, the Company would receive payment from
the counter-party of the contract equal to the contracted volumes times the
difference between the market price and the strike price, increasing the
effective price received for oil and gas sales by the amount received from the
counter-party.

    Gains and amortization of premiums paid on option contracts are recognized
as an adjustment to sales revenue when the related transactions being hedged are
finalized.

    The net effect of the Company's commodity hedging activities increased oil
and gas revenues for the year ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 by $158,500 and
$16,400, respectively.

    The following table sets forth the future volumes hedged by year and the
weighted-average strike price of the option contracts at June 30, 1999 and 1998:



                                  MONTHLY VOLUME

  Gas:.......................         --     50,000    May 1998 - Apr 1999         $    2.30


  (The strike prices for oil are based on the NYMEX spot price for West Texas
 Intermediate; the strike prices for gas are based on the Inside FERC-Henry Hub
                                  spot price)

    At June 30, 1999, the Company had net unamortized premiums of $717,000
classified as other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Subsequent to June
30, 1999, the Company sold put options to offset both crude oil option contracts
outstanding at June 30, 1999, and purchased put options, increasing the strike
prices on both option contracts to $19.50 per barrel.

10. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

EQUITY OFFERING

    On May 7, 1999, the Company closed the public offering of 55,300,000 shares
of common stock (300,000 shares of which were sold pursuant to the underwriters'
over-allotment option discussed below) at $3.00 per share, or $166 million (the
"Public Offering"). In addition, the Company closed the offering of 3,508,772
shares of common stock at $2.85 per share, or $10 million (the "Concurrent
Offering" and together with the Public Offering, the "Equity Offering"). In
addition, on June 7, 1999, the underwriters of the Public Offering exercised an
over-allotment option to purchase an additional 5,436,000 million shares to
cover over-allotments. Net proceeds from the Equity Offering of approximately
$180.4 million were used to repay a portion of the Company's term loan
borrowings under its senior credit facility.

STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS

    On January 13, 1998 the Company's shareholders approved the Key Energy
Group, Inc. 1997 Incentive Plan, as amended (the "1997 Incentive Plan"). The
1997 Incentive Plan is an amendment and restatement of the plans formerly known
as the "Key Energy Group, Inc. 1995 Stock Option Plan" (the "1995 Option Plan")
and the "Key Energy Group, Inc. 1995 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan" (the
"1995 Directors Plan") (collectively, the "Prior Plans"). All options previously
granted under the Prior Plans and outstanding as of November 17, 1997 (the date
on which the Company's board of directors adopted the plan) were assumed and
continued, without modification, under the 1997 Incentive Plan.

    Under the 1997 Incentive Plan, the Company may grant the following awards to
key employees, Directors who are not employees ("Outside Directors") and
consultants of the Company, its controlled subsidiaries, and its parent
corporation, if any: (i) incentive stock options ("ISOs") as defined in Section
422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), (ii)
"nonstatutory" stock options ("NSOs"), (iii) stock appreciation rights ("SARs"),
(iv) shares of the restricted stock, (v) performance shares and performance
units, (vi) other stock-based awards and (vii) supplemental tax

bonuses (collectively, ("Incentive Awards"). ISOs and NSOs are sometimes
referred to collectively herein as "Options".

    The Company may grant Incentive Awards covering an aggregate of the greater
of (i) 3,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock and (ii) 10% of the shares
of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding on the last day of each
calendar quarter, provided, however, that a decrease in the number of issued and
outstanding shares of the Company's common stock from the previous calendar
quarter shall not result in a decrease in the number of shares available for
issuance under the 1997 Incentive Plan. As a result of the Company's equity
offering discussed above, as of June 30, 1999, the number of shares of the
Company's common stock that may be covered by Incentive Awards has increased to
approximately 8.27 million.

    Any shares of the Company's common stock that are issued and are forfeited
or are subject to Incentive Awards under the 1997 Incentive Plan that expire or
terminate for any reason will remain available for issuance with respect to the
granting of Incentive Awards during the term of the 1997 Incentive Plan, except
as may otherwise be provided by applicable law. Shares of the Company's common
stock issued under the 1997 Incentive Plan may be either newly issued or
treasury shares, including shares of the Company's common stock that the Company
receives in connection with the exercise of an Incentive Awards. The number and
kind of securities that may be issued under the 1997 Incentive Plan and pursuant
to then outstanding Incentive Awards are subject to adjustments to prevent
enlargement or dilution of rights resulting from stock dividends, stock splits,
recapitalizations, reorganization or similar transactions.

    The maximum number of shares of the Company's common stock subject to
Incentive Awards that may be granted or that may vest, as applicable, to any one
Covered Employee (defined below) during any calendar year shall be 500,000
shares, subject to adjustment under the provisions of the 1997 Incentive Plan.

    The maximum aggregate cash payout subject to Incentive Awards (including
SARs, performance units and performance shares payable in cash, or other
stock-based awards payable in cash) that may be granted to any one Covered
Employee during any calendar year is $2,500,000. For purposes of the 1997
Incentive Plan, "Covered Employees" means a named executive officer who is one
of the group covered employees as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code and the
regulation promulgated thereunder (ie., generally the chief executive officer
and the other four most highly compensated executives for a given year.)

    The 1997 Incentive Plan is administrated by the Compensation Committee
appointed by the Board of Directors (the "Committee") consisting of not less
than two directors each of whom is (i) an "outside director" under Section
162(m) of the Code and (ii) a "non-employee director" under Rule 16b-3 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

    The exercise price of options under the 1997 Incentive Plan is the fair
market value per share on the date the options are granted. The exercise of NSOs
results in a U. S. tax deduction to the Company equal to the income tax effect
of the difference between the exercise price and the market price at the
exercise

    The foregoing stock option activity summary reflects that effective as of
September 4, 1998, the Committee authorized the cancellation and reissue of
stock options for employees that were not executive offices for the purpose of
changing the exercise price and vesting schedule of such options. A total of
473,556 stock options were cancelled, with a weighted average price of
approximately $13.09 per share, and reissued with an exercise price of $7.125
per share. The vesting of the new options is ratable over a three-year period
from the date of grant.

    The following table summarizes information about the stock options

10. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)
    The Company applies the intrinsic value method of APB 25 in accounting for
its employee stock incentive plans. Accordingly, no compensation expense has
been recognized for any stock options issued under the employee plans. Had
compensation expense for stock options granted to employees been recognized
based on the fair value at the grant dates, using the methodology prescribed by
SFAS 123, the Company's net income (loss) and earnings per share would have been
reduced to pro forma amounts indicated below:



                                                                  1999       1998       1997

    SFAS 123 does not apply to options granted prior to January 1, 1995;
therefore, the pro forma effect disclosed above may no be representative of pro
forma amounts in future years.

    The total fair value of stock options granted during 1999, 1998 and 1997 was
$15,695,000, $7,994,000 and $6,541,000, respectively. The fair value of each
stock option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Sholes
option-pricing model, based on the following weighted-average assumptions.

    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.

14. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

    As of June 30, 1999, the Company had demand notes outstanding from its chief
executive officer totaling $2,835,000, which notes accrue interest at LIBOR plus
1.25% and are secured by a first mortgage on the borrowers' principal residence.
See Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions for a discussion of
events subsequent to June 30, 1999 related to these transactions.

    In fiscal 1998, Marcum Natural Gas Services, Inc., a company for which one
of the Company's outside directors serves as Chairman of the Board, President
and Chief Executive Officer, sold certain assets held by its wholly owned
subsidiary, Marcum Gas Transmission, Inc., to one of the Company's wholly owned
subsidiaries for a total purchase price of approximately $700,000. Marcum
Natural Gas Services also granted the Company's subsidiary a right of first
refusal to participate in future projects developed by Marcum Gas Transmission
on terms and conditions identical to those provided to Marcum Gas Transmission.

14. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (CONTINUED)
    In fiscal 1998, one of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries entered into
three real property leases with an entity in which one of our vice presidents
who had served in such capacity for a portion of fiscal 1998, owns an interest.
Each lease is a standard form triple-net lease, providing for a five-year term
and monthly rental payments of $3,000. The leases are for yards in West
Virginia, Pennsylvania and Michigan. The payments made under the leases totaled
$108,000 for both fiscal 1998 and 1999.

    In fiscal 1998, the Company deposited approximately $250,000 in a money
market account as collateral to secure a bank loan made to a business entity in
which the Company's chief accounting officer owns an interest. Such amount is
still on deposit as collateral for the loan.

    In fiscal 1999, an investment management firm in which one of the Company's
outside directors is a principal, purchased $25 million principal amount of the
Company's borrowings under the Bridge Loan Agreement. The proceeds of the
Company's Units offering (see Note 5(iii)) were used to repay the Bridge Loan.

investment banking firm in which one of the Company's outside directors is a

15. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

    The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131,
"Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS
131"). SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that public business
enterprises report information about operating segments in interim and annual
financial statements. The Company adopted SFAS 131 in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 1999. Its adoption did not have any effect on the Company's financial
statements, since required changes were limited to the form and content of the
disclosures required.

    The Company operates in three business segments: well servicing, contract
drilling and oil and gas production.

    Well Servicing: the Company's operations provide well servicing (ongoing
maintenance of existing oil and natural gas wells), workover (major repairs or
modifications necessary to optimize the level of production from existing oil
and natural gas wells) and production services (fluid hauling and fluid storage
tank rental).

    Contract Drilling: The Company provides contract drilling services for major
and independent oil companies onshore the continental United States, Argentina
and Ontario, Canada. The financial data presented in the accompanying table,
however, only reflects the results of operations of Key's separate contract
drilling division in the Permian Basin, Key Energy Drilling.

    Oil and Gas Production: The Company produces crude oil and natural gas, in
the Permian Basin and Panhandle areas of West Texas.

    The Company's management evaluates the performance of its operating segments
based on net income and operating profits (revenues less direct operating
expenses). Corporate expenses include general corporate expenses associated with
managing all reportable operating segments. Corporate assets

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Key Energy Services, Inc. (formerly, "Key Energy Group, Inc.")

    We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Key Energy
Services, Inc. (formerly, "Key Energy Group, Inc.") as of June 30, 1999 and
1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive
income, cash flows and stockholders' equity for each of the years in the
three-year period ended June 30, 1999. In connection with our audits of the
consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement
schedule listed in the Index at Item 14. These consolidated financial statements
and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

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

    In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Key Energy Services, Inc. as of June 30, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended June 30, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a
whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein.
