PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL DEVELOPMENT
Parker Drilling Company was incorporated in the state of Oklahoma in
1954. The Company's predecessor was a contract drilling business established
in 1934 by Gifford C. Parker. The founder was the father of Robert L. Parker
Sr., the current chairman and a principal stockholder, and the grandfather of
Robert L. Parker Jr., president and chief executive officer. In March 1976,
the state of incorporation of the Company was changed to Delaware through the
merger of the Oklahoma corporation into its wholly owned subsidiary Parker
Drilling Company, a Delaware corporation. Unless otherwise indicated, the
term "Company" refers to Parker Drilling Company together with its
subsidiaries and "Parker Drilling" refers solely to the parent, Parker
Drilling Company.
The Company's principal business is providing land contract drilling
services on a worldwide basis to firms in the oil and gas industry.
Internationally, the Company specializes in difficult wells and drilling in
remote locations, utilizing equipment that is specially designed by the
Company to be easily transported by helicopter or other vehicles into
difficult access areas. Domestically, the Company specializes in the drilling
of deep gas wells (to 15,000 feet or deeper). The Company is also engaged in
coring and geothermal operations.
In addition to land contract drilling services, the Company also provides
a wide range of drilling engineering and project management services. The
Company provides consulting services in the area of well design services for
drilling programs. Included in project management services provided are
training, quality control, location construction, catering and logistics of
equipment and personnel.
In August 1975, the Company acquired Parker Technology, Inc. ("Partech")
(Registered Trademark) (formerly OIME, Inc.), a drilling equipment
manufacturing concern in Odessa, Texas. This vertical integration step
allowed the Company to meet customer requests for more rigs during periods of
growth in the drilling industry. Partech (Registered Trademark) designs and
constructs specialized rigs and rig components to meet the unique needs of the
Company and its customers. However, with minimal demand for rig construction
during recent years, Partech (Registered Trademark) functions primarily as a
service center for the Company's drilling operations. The scope of Partech's
operations was downsized in late fiscal 1994 with a reduction in the number of
manufacturing and technical support personnel and the sale of excess
manufacturing equipment and inventories. In fiscal years 1994, 1993 and 1992,
its operations accounted for less than 10 percent of the Company's total
revenue.
Parker Kinetic Designs, Inc. ("Parker Kinetic"), formed in July 1984,
specializes in the commercialization of pulse power technologies for
industrial, scientific and military applications. Parker Kinetic is a leading
developer of pulse power applications. The Austin, Texas-based subsidiary
also provides specialized engineering services in electromagnetic accelerator
research.

CUSTOMERS
The Company's drilling customer base consists of major oil companies,
foreign national oil and gas companies, independent oil and gas companies and
industrial users. The Company's 20 largest customers accounted for
approximately 87 percent of total revenue during fiscal 1994. Three customers
accounted for approximately 14 percent, 12 percent and 11 percent,
respectively. In fiscal 1993, three customers accounted for approximately 22
percent, 14 percent and 10 percent, respectively. In fiscal 1992, two
customers accounted for approximately 15 percent and 12 percent, respectively.
CONTRACTS
The Company generally obtains drilling contracts through competitive
bidding. Under most contracts the Company is paid a daily fee, or day rate.
The day rate received is based on several factors, including: type of
equipment, services and personnel furnished; investment required to perform
the contract; location of well; length of the contract and competitive market
forces. Footage rate contracts are occasionally accepted in which the Company
is paid a rate per foot drilled upon reaching a specified depth. The Company
drilled shallow (under 10,000 feet) wells under footage contract terms in the
past fiscal year in connection with several international contracts. Footage
contract terms generally place greater risk on the Company although this risk
is limited by the shallow well depths.
The Company generally receives a lump sum fee, which in most cases
approximates the cost incurred by the Company, to move its equipment to the
drilling site. Domestic contracts are generally for one well, while
international contracts are more likely to be for multi-well programs. The
Company continues to obtain contracts under which the Company provides
drilling engineering and integrated project management services. The Company
provides drilling project services from well design and engineering expertise
to site preparation and road construction in an effort to help customers
eliminate or reduce duplication of resources on drilling programs around the
world.
While oil and gas exploration efforts have remained stable or increased
in many areas outside the United States, domestic drilling programs have
remained relatively depressed. Day rates on domestic contracts continue to
cover cash costs before local overhead. International day rates and profit
margins continue to be more favorable than those for domestic operations.
Because of the difficult remote drilling sites encountered internationally,
specialized equipment is often required, sometimes resulting in additional
modification or construction costs which are generally offset by favorable day
rates for the Company. Substantially all the international contracts provide
for payment in U.S. dollars, with a minimum local currency portion to cover
local expenditures.
COMPETITION
Significant competition remains in the drilling industry although both
the number of companies and available rigs have decreased during the energy
industry downturn. The number of rigs continues to exceed demand,
particularly in the domestic market. A number of large and small drilling
contractors provide competition for drilling contracts in all areas the
Company serves. Although no single drilling competitor operates in all areas
the Company serves, certain competitors are present in more than one of those
areas.
- 2 -
COMPETITION (continued)
Historically, competition for drilling services has been based on four
factors: (1) type and condition of equipment available, (2) location of or
ability to deploy such equipment, (3) quality of service and personnel and (4)
price. In each of the first three areas, management believes that the Company
has for many years ranked at or near the top of the drilling industry. During
the past several years, the prevailing factor in obtaining contracts has been
price due to the surplus of available rigs in the drilling industry. While
willing to bid a day rate that will generate a financial loss on a contract,
the Company is not willing to bid a job on a negative cash flow basis before
local overhead. The Company's patented drilling equipment is a factor in
obtaining certain contracts located in remote and difficult-access locations
and in drilling certain wells requiring specialized equipment.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
In response to customers' needs of reducing drilling costs, the Company
has developed a new slim hole drilling and coring rig. The new series of
lighter electric rigs features a two-speed top drive and the Parkomatic
(Registered Trademark) automatic drilling system. Combining technology from
the drilling and mining industries, the Company pioneered continuous wireline
coring in order to allow geological assessments to be made during the drilling
program. The Company has utilized this technology in the performance of
several contracts and actively markets this capability to its customers.
Parker Kinetic engineers and manufactures high-energy pulse power
equipment. Parker Kinetic has developed the homopolar pulse generator, a
machine that stores kinetic energy in a rotor, then rapidly converts that
energy into a high-current electrical pulse. Pulse power can be used for,
among other things, high-speed solid-state welding, sintering and material
compaction, pulsed heating and powering electromagnetic launch devices.
Parker Kinetic continues to refine this technology in order to make it
practical and economically feasible for industrial, scientific and military
applications. With the recent decline in military expenditures by the United
States government, Parker Kinetic has shifted the focus of its research
activities to industrial applications and markets.
Twenty-four employees are involved in research and development. The
costs associated with the Company's research and development efforts are not
significant.

EMPLOYEES
At August 31, 1994, the Company employed 2,106 persons, up 18% from the
1,784 employed at August 31, 1993. The following table sets forth the
composition of the Company's employees:

RISKS AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
Certain political and economic risks are inherent in international
operations. These risks include expropriation of equipment, currency rate
fluctuations, foreign currency conversion restrictions and local tax
regulations. The Company minimizes the potential impact of these risks by
operating in several geographical areas and by generally entering contracts
which are denominated in U. S. dollars. Additionally, the Company seeks to
obtain contractual indemnification from operators against certain of these
risks. The Company carries political risk insurance covering its equipment in
most foreign locations.
The United States and various other countries have enacted legislation or
adopted regulations controlling the discharge of materials into the
environment. Such legislation provides for the imposition of penalties and
liabilities, regardless of fault, for hazardous waste discharges. In certain
circumstances, the Department of the Interior is authorized to suspend
operations that threaten to harm life, property or the environment. Under
most of the Company's contracts, the Company is indemnified from environ-
mental damages except in certain cases of surface pollution. The Company
purchases limited pollution insurance to cover costs associated with clean up
of sudden and accidental spills. In those contracts where the Company accepts
liability for pollution caused by its negligence or is not covered by
insurance, the Company's financial exposure is generally restricted to an
acceptable amount in the contract.
The Company believes that it substantially complies with all
environmental legislation and regulations. Compliance with such provisions
and regulations has not had a material effect upon the Company's operations;
however, the effect of any future environmental enactments cannot be
predicted.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS
The Company operates principally in one segment, contract drilling
services. Information about the Company's operations by geographic areas for
the three years ended August 31, 1994, is set forth in Note 11 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
The Company owns and occupies a ten-story building in downtown Tulsa,
Oklahoma, as its home office. The Company also owns a five-story office
building in Tulsa purchased as a long-term investment and currently is leasing
it to third parties. Additionally, the Company owns and leases office space
and operating facilities in various locations, but only to the extent
necessary for administrative and operational functions.
- 4 -
Item 2. PROPERTIES (continued)
During fiscal 1994, the Company acquired seven international rigs, of
which six are currently under contract in Argentina and one in Colombia. The
Company also decided to dispose of 16 domestic and retired three international
rigs from the rig fleet. The following table shows, as of August 31, 1994,

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During fiscal 1994, cash and short-term investments decreased $29.5
million. The decline was caused by the Company financing capital expenditures
of $34.8 million primarily with existing cash and short-term investments.
The Company's operating activities provided $1.0 million of cash in
fiscal 1994, a decline of $12.8 million from fiscal 1993. The decline was
caused by an increase in the Company's working capital, particularly accounts
receivable. Proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment included
$2.2 million from the sale of an airplane and $1.2 million of insurance
proceeds for damages to an international rig, which occurred during a blowout.
Capital expenditures increased $16.0 million to a total of $34.8 million
in fiscal 1994. Significant capital expenditures during fiscal 1994 included
$19.3 million to acquire and modify seven international drilling rigs. Six of
the rigs are currently under contract in Argentina and the seventh is
operating in Colombia for a major customer. The increase in capital spending
over fiscal 1993 reflects the increase in international drilling activity
experienced by the Company during fiscal 1994. Capital expenditures in fiscal
1995 are forecast to be $14.0 million, $8.0 million of which is primarily to
maintain current operations. In the event the Company obtains additional
contracts that require the purchase or construction of new or specialized
rigs, or significant modifications to existing rigs, capital expenditures
could increase further. Any significant increase in capital expenditures
would be subject to any restrictions imposed on the Company as specified
below.
The Company had a credit agreement ("Agreement") with two banks which
provided for a $15.0 million revolving credit facility through September 1,
1994. The Agreement was amended in the third quarter of fiscal 1994 to extend
$7.5 million of the revolving credit facility through March 1, 1996. All of
the credit facility was available for drawdown as of August 31, 1994. The
Agreement contains restrictions on annual capital expenditures and certain
senior and subordinated indebtedness which can be incurred by Parker Drilling
Company and certain subsidiaries designated in the Agreement. These
designated subsidiaries comprise the operating subsidiaries through which the
Company performs the majority of its drilling operations. The credit facility
also limits payment of dividends on the Company's common stock to the lesser
of 40 percent of consolidated net income for the preceding fiscal year, or
$2.6 million. The remaining subsidiaries of the Company are not a party to
the credit facility and are able to make capital expenditures and obtain
independent financing from lenders that have no recourse to Parker Drilling
Company and the designated subsidiaries, subject only to an overall limitation
of indebtedness.
The restrictions in the Agreement are not anticipated to restrict growth
or investment opportunities in the foreseeable future.
Management believes that the current level of cash and short-term
investments, together with cash generated from operations, should be
sufficient to meet the Company's immediate capital needs. However, in the
event the Company obtains additional contracts requiring further significant
capital expenditures or acquires equipment or companies in the drilling
service industry, management believes the Company would likely meet both
short-term and long-term capital needs through a combination of cash generated
from operations, borrowings under the bank credit agreement and either equity
or long-term debt financing.
- 8 -
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 1994 VS. 1993
The fiscal 1994 net loss of $28.8 million represents an increase in net
loss of $18.1 million from fiscal 1993. However, excluding the provision for
reduction in carrying value of certain assets of $19.7 million recognized in
fiscal 1994, the net loss improved $1.6 million from fiscal 1993 to fiscal
1994. The primary reasons for the improvement were an increase in drilling
margins of $5.3 million, partially offset by increases in depreciation expense
of $1.6 million and income tax expense of $2.2 million.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994, management analyzed its
domestic operations and made the strategic decision to reorganize certain of
these operations and sell certain of these assets. In Alaska, the Company
intends to look for opportunities to joint venture or combine operations with
other drilling companies in order to lower operating and administrative costs.
As a result, the Company reduced the carrying value of certain assets in
Alaska, including rigs, spare parts and property that will be sold. The
Company's Partech (Registered Trademark) manufacturing operations are being
downsized by the sale of land, buildings, equipment and excess inventories,
and accordingly, the Company has written down to net realizable value certain
drilling equipment, property and inventories that will be disposed. In the
Lower-48 divisions, the Company intends to dispose of a number of mechanical
rigs and certain rig equipment which also have been written down to net
realizable value. Write-offs relating to the Lower-48 and Alaska rigs have
resulted in the removal of 16 rigs from Parker's fleet. Aggregating the items
described above, the Company recorded a $19.7 million provision during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1994.
Drilling revenue increased by $50.8 million as utilization of the
Company's international rig fleet increased from 40% in fiscal 1993 to 56% in
fiscal 1994. Domestic rig utilization increased slightly from 14% to 15%.
(Rigs disposed of or reclassified as assets held for sale in fiscal 1994 have
been treated as removed from the rig fleet as of the last day of the fiscal
year.)
Western Hemisphere international drilling revenue increased $21.1 million
from fiscal 1993 to fiscal 1994. Revenue from the country of Argentina
increased $18.5 million as the Company re-entered the Argentina drilling
market during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1993. Currently, the Company has
eleven shallow to medium-depth rigs and one deep drilling rig in Argentina.
Ten of these rigs were under contract during fiscal 1994. In Colombia,
revenue increased $2.7 million in fiscal 1994 as the Company engaged in more
deep drilling at higher day rates when compared to fiscal 1993. Management
anticipates Western Hemisphere international operations will continue to be a
growth market for the Company in fiscal 1995.
International drilling revenue from operations in Asia and the Pacific
increased $20.9 million in fiscal 1994. The primary reasons for the increase
were the resumption of operations in Pakistan during the first quarter of
fiscal 1994, and the operation of two geothermal rigs in the Philippines, a
new market for the Company in fiscal 1994. Also contributing to the increase
in drilling revenue was an increase in utilization in Papua New Guinea during
fiscal 1994. Management anticipates revenue from this region will decline
slightly in fiscal 1995.
- 9 -
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 1994 VS. 1993 (continued)
Drilling revenue from operations in Africa, the Middle East and CIS
increased $9.6 million in fiscal 1994. During the fourth quarter of fiscal
1993, the Company began operating in the country of Kazakhstan under a labor
contract for a major customer. Revenue from operations in Kazakhstan
increased $6.8 million in fiscal 1994. In the Russian Republic an increase in
operating days for two workover rigs generated an additional $2.3 million in
revenue in fiscal 1994 versus fiscal 1993. In Africa, a decline in revenue
from decreased utilization in Chad was offset by revenue from a one-rig
contract in Congo. The Congo contract was completed in fiscal 1994 and the
rig has been redeployed to the Argentina market. In the second half of fiscal
1994, the Company's major customer in Kazakhstan curtailed its involvement in
that country pending settlement of an oil export pipeline situation. It is
anticipated that this development, combined with a forecasted decline in
utilization in Chad and the Russian Republic, will cause revenue from this
region to decline in fiscal 1995.
Domestic drilling revenue declined slightly in fiscal 1994 compared to
fiscal 1993. An increase in utilization in the continental United States
could not completely offset the loss of revenue from the Company's specialized
arctic drilling rig, which was released late in the third quarter of fiscal
1994. Management forecasts this rig will begin operations again in the second
quarter of fiscal 1995. Management anticipates that domestic utilization and
revenue in fiscal 1995 will approximate fiscal 1994 levels.
Although drilling revenue increased $50.8 million in fiscal 1994 versus
fiscal 1993, drilling margins (drilling revenue less drilling expense) did not
increase proportionately. Drilling margins in Colombia declined due to
increased operating expenses and costs associated with the start-up of two
rigs. In Argentina, the initial startup costs of entering a new market and
putting ten newly acquired rigs to work negatively impacted drilling margins.
Additionally, during this transition period the Company encountered drilling
problems which resulted in slower-than-expected drilling progress on some of
the footage rate contracts. Management is taking steps to resolve the
drilling problems and reduce operating expenses in these countries.
Depreciation expense increased $1.6 million in fiscal 1994, the result of
an increase in capital spending during 1994. Based on forecasted capital
expenditures of $14.0 million in fiscal 1995, management anticipates
depreciation expense in fiscal 1995 will remain consistent with fiscal 1994.
Other income (expense) increased $.6 million in fiscal 1994 compared to
fiscal 1993. Interest income, net of interest expense, decreased $.5 million
due to the decline in cash and short-term investments during fiscal 1994.
Other income in fiscal 1994 included a $1.0 million gain recognized when
proceeds from an insurance settlement exceeded the book value of equipment
damaged in connection with a blowout on an international rig. Fiscal 1994
other income also included the reversal of a prior year foreign payroll tax
accrual totalling $1.5 million. Offsetting this income in fiscal 1994, was a
$2.6 million charge for the settlement of litigation. (See Note 12 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) Fiscal 1993 other expense
included a $.9 million adjustment of a prior year's workers' compensation
liability. Income tax expense increased $2.2 million primarily because of an
increase in international drilling activity, which resulted in an increase in
current tax expense.
- 10 -
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 1993 VS. 1992
The fiscal 1993 net loss of $10.7 million represented a $.5 million
improvement over fiscal 1992's $11.2 million loss. However, excluding the
provision for reduction in carrying value of certain assets of $19.3 million
recognized in fiscal 1992, net income (loss) declined $18.8 million from
fiscal 1992 to fiscal 1993. The primary reasons for the decline were a
decrease in drilling margins of $14.4 million and a decrease in other income
of $3.0 million, offset by a decrease in income tax expense (benefit) of $3.1
million. Fiscal 1992 also included a gain on settlement of $4.0 million.
In fiscal 1993, utilization of the Company's international rig fleet
decreased to 40% compared with 52% in fiscal 1992. This was the primary
reason for a drop in drilling revenue of $19.4 million in fiscal 1993.
Domestic utilization increased slightly from 13% in fiscal 1992 to 14% in
fiscal 1993.
Western Hemisphere international drilling revenue in fiscal 1993 remained
consistent with fiscal 1992. Increased utilization in Ecuador and
commencement of operations in Argentina during the fourth quarter of fiscal
1993 offset revenue losses from decreased utilization in Peru and the
cessation of drilling operations in fiscal 1992 of a subsidiary operating in
Canada. (This subsidiary was sold during the third quarter of fiscal 1993.
See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.)
International drilling revenue from operations in Asia and the Pacific
declined $17.1 million in fiscal 1993 due to decreased utilization in the
countries of Myanmar, Pakistan and Papua New Guinea.
Drilling revenue from operations in Africa, the Middle East and CIS
declined a combined $5.8 million in fiscal 1993. Revenue from operations in
the Russian Republic declined $8.9 million due primarily to the termination in
the second quarter of fiscal 1992 of a three-rig contract, partially offset by
revenue from two workover rigs which began operating in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 1993. Revenue from Africa increased $2.9 million as revenue from
increased utilization in Chad more than offset the loss of revenue from the
completion during fiscal 1992 of a one-rig contract in the Congo.
Domestic drilling revenue increased $3.7 million due primarily to a full
year's operation in fiscal 1993 of the Company's specialized arctic rig.
Utilization in the Lower-48 states and Hawaii remained consistent with fiscal
1992.
Other revenue declined $3.2 million due to a decrease in engineering
services provided by the Company's subsidiary Parker Kinetic to the United
States Army and Air Force, partially offset by increased outside sales by the
Company's manufacturing subsidiary, Partech (Registered Trademark).
Drilling profit margin (drilling revenue less drilling expense) declined
$14.4 million from fiscal 1992 to fiscal 1993. The decline was primarily the
result of a decrease in activity in some of the more profitable international
markets of the Russian Republic and Myanmar.
Depreciation expense in fiscal 1993 remained consistent with fiscal 1992.
General and administrative expense declined $.8 million due primarily to
termination benefits paid in fiscal 1992.
- 11 -
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 1993 VS. 1992 (continued)
Other income and (expense) declined $7.3 million in fiscal 1993 compared
to fiscal 1992. Interest income, net of interest expense, remained consistent
in fiscal 1993 with fiscal 1992. Other expense in fiscal 1993 included a $.9
million adjustment of a prior year's workers' compensation liability. Fiscal
1992 included a $1.4 million gain recognized when proceeds from an insurance
settlement exceeded the book value of equipment lost and associated expenses
in connection with a blowout which occurred while drilling a well in Wyoming.
Fiscal 1992 also included a $4.0 million gain from a settlement with a major
oil and gas producer. (See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements for a description of the settlement.) Income tax expense
(benefit) improved $3.1 million primarily because of a decrease in
international drilling activity which resulted in a decrease in current tax
expense and the reversal of deferred tax liabilities in the current year.
OTHER MATTERS
Internationally, the Company specializes in drilling in remote locations
and under difficult geological or operating conditions. The Company's
international services are primarily utilized by international and national
oil companies in the exploration and development of reserves of oil.
Domestically, the Company specializes in drilling deep wells in search of
natural gas. Business activity is dependent on the exploration and
development activities of the major, independent and national oil and gas
companies that make up the Company's customer base. Generally, temporary
fluctuations in oil and gas prices do not materially affect these companies'
exploration and development activities, and consequently do not materially
affect the operations of the Company. However, sustained increases or
decreases in oil and natural gas prices could have an impact on customers'
long-term exploration and development activities which in turn could
materially affect the Company's operations. Generally, a sustained change in
the price of oil would have a greater impact on the Company's international
operations while a sustained change in the price of natural gas would have a
greater effect on domestic operations. Weak prices for natural gas have
resulted in depressed markets for domestic drilling services over the past
decade.
Historically, due to the importance of oil revenue to most of the
countries in which the Company operates, the Company's operations generally
have not been negatively impacted by adverse economic and political
conditions. However, there can be no assurances that such conditions could
not have a material adverse effect in the future.

financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial statement schedules 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 financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Parker Drilling Company and subsidiaries as of August 31, 1994 and 1993, and
the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended August 31, 1994, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, in our opinion, the

PARKER DRILLING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Parker Drilling Company ("Parker Drilling") and all of its
majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company").
Drilling Contracts - The Company recognizes revenue and expenses on day
rate contracts as the drilling progresses (percentage-of-completion method)
because the Company does not bear the risk of completion of the well. For
footage contracts, the Company recognizes the revenue and expenses upon
completion of the well (completed-contract method).
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the balance sheet and the
statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to be all
highly liquid debt instruments that had a remaining maturity of three months
or less at the date of purchase.
Other Short-term Investments - Other short-term investments include
primarily certificates of deposit, U. S. government securities and commercial
paper having remaining maturities of greater than three months at the date of
purchase and are stated at the lower of cost or market.
Property, Plant and Equipment - The Company provides for depreciation of
property, plant and equipment primarily on the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets after provision for salvage value. When
properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is
included in operations. Management periodically evaluates the Company's
assets to determine if they are not in excess of their net realizable value.
Management considers a number of factors such as estimated future cash flows,
appraisals and current market value analysis in determining net realizable
value. Assets are written down to reflect any decrease in net realizable
value below their net carrying value (See Note 3).
Rig Materials and Supplies - Since the Company's foreign drilling
generally occurs in remote locations, making timely outside delivery of spare
parts unlikely, a complement of parts and supplies is maintained for each rig
either at the drilling site or in warehouses close to the operations. During
periods of high rig utilization, these parts are generally consumed and
replenished within a one-year period. During a period of lower rig
utilization in a particular location, the parts, like the related idle rigs,
are generally not transferred to other foreign locations until new contracts
are obtained because of the significant transportation costs which would
result from such transfers. The Company classifies those parts which are not
expected to be utilized in the following year as long-term assets.
Income Taxes and Change in Accounting Policy - During fiscal 1993, the
Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109:
Accounting for Income Taxes. Prior to the change the Company followed SFAS
No. 96: Accounting for Income Taxes. Similar to SFAS No. 96, SFAS No. 109
utilizes the liability method and deferred income taxes (assets) are recorded
to reflect the expected tax consequences in future years of differences
between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting
amounts at each year end. The change in this accounting policy had no effect
upon net income for the year ended August 31, 1993.
- 21 -
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Earnings (Loss) Per Share - Earnings (loss) per share is computed by
dividing net income (loss), as adjusted for dividends on preferred stock, by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Common shares issued under the 1969 Key Employees Stock Grant Plan, 1980
Incentive Career Stock Plan and the 1991 Stock Grant Plan are not considered
outstanding shares until the restrictions lapse. However, they are considered
common stock equivalents.
Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial instruments which potentially
subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of
trade receivables with a variety of national and international oil and natural
gas companies. The Company generally does not require collateral on its trade
receivables. Such credit risk is considered by management to be limited due
to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base. The
Company places substantially all its interest-bearing investments with major
financial institutions and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to
any one financial institution. At August 31, 1994, the Company had deposits
in domestic banks in excess of federally insured limits by approximately $.4
million. In addition, the Company had deposits in foreign banks of $4.1
million which are not federally insured.
Fair Market Value of Financial Instruments - The carrying amount of the
Company's cash and short-term investments approximates fair value because of
the short maturity of those instruments.
Note 2 - Reclassification of General and Administrative Expense
During fiscal 1994, the Company reviewed the classifications under which
peer companies report results of operations. In order to enhance
comparability, the Company reclassified division office expenses of the
following amounts from general and administrative expense to either drilling
or other operating expense: 1994 - $9,327,000; 1993 - $8,812,000; and 1992 -
$9,892,000.
Note 3 - Provision for Reduction in Carrying Value of Certain Assets
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994, management analyzed its
domestic operations and made the strategic decision to reorganize certain of
these operations and sell certain of these assets. In Alaska, the Company
intends to look for opportunities to joint venture or combine operations with
other drilling companies in order to lower operating and administrative costs.
As a result, the Company reduced the carrying value of certain assets in
Alaska, including rigs, spare parts and property that will be sold. The
Company's Partech (Registered Trademark) manufacturing operations are being
downsized by the sale of land, buildings, equipment and excess inventories,
and accordingly, the Company has written down to net realizable value certain
drilling equipment, property and inventories that will be disposed. In the
Lower-48 divisions, the Company intends to dispose of a number of mechanical
rigs and certain rig equipment which also have been written down to net
realizable value. Write-offs relating to the Lower-48 and Alaska rigs have
resulted in the removal of 16 rigs from Parker's fleet. Aggregating the items
described above, the Company recorded a $19,718,000 provision during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1994.
- 22 -
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
Note 3 - Provision for Reduction in Carrying Value of Certain Assets
(continued)
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1992, management evaluated the
Company's assets and operations with the intent of reducing future operating
costs and disposing of non-performing assets. As a result of this evaluation,
management decided to dispose of certain rig components and rig materials and
supplies. The Company recorded a $19,257,000 provision to reduce the carrying
value of these rig components and rig materials and supplies to their net
realizable value, and reduced its rig fleet by 16 rigs, 14 domestic and two
international.
Note 4 - Sale of a Subsidiary
On April 30, 1993, the Company sold its entire equity interest in a
subsidiary operating in Canada. The Company received $2,271,000 in cash and
notes receivable valued at $688,000. Under the terms of the agreement the
Company is entitled to receive a portion of the proceeds from the disposition
of certain remaining assets of the subsidiary. The book value of the
Company's investment in the subsidiary approximated the total sales price and,
consequently, no gain or loss from the sale was recorded.
Note 5 - Gain on Settlement
During fiscal 1987, the Company provided contract drilling services and
financed the development of a series of wells for a major oil and gas
operator. The Company was to be paid from the proceeds of producing wells.
Due to the uncertainty of future production from these wells the Company
deferred recognition of any drilling profit or subsequent interest income
until all its costs were recovered. At November 30, 1991, approximately
$134,000 in costs had yet to be recovered. In December 1991, the Company
agreed to a settlement with the operator whereby the Company received
$4,100,000 cash in final payment. Due to the Company's decision to defer
recognition of revenue until recovery of all costs, the Company recognized
$3,966,000 of income during the second quarter of fiscal 1992.
Note 6 - Long-term Debt
During fiscal 1993 and 1994 the Company had available a $15,000,000
revolving credit facility which was to expire September 1, 1994. In the third
quarter of fiscal 1994 the Company entered into an amendment to its Credit
Agreement. The amendment extends $7,500,000 of the $15,000,000 revolving
credit facility from September 1, 1994 through March 1, 1996. Interest on the
revolving credit facility is at prime plus 3/4 of one percent and commitment
fees on the unused credit facility are 1/2 of one percent. The facility
requires, among other things, maintenance of minimum working capital and
restricts capital expenditures and creation of additional indebtedness. Under
this agreement, the payment of dividends on the Company's common stock is
limited to the lesser of 40 percent of consolidated net income for the
preceding fiscal year or $2,600,000.

====== ======= ======
During fiscal 1993, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109: Accounting for Income Taxes.
SFAS No. 109 requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for
the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the
financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax
liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the
financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax
rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
The source of these temporary differences causing deferred tax liabilities
results from differences attributable to depreciation of property, plant and
equipment.

Note 9 - Common Stock and Stock Options
The Company's 1969 Key Employees Stock Grant Plan (formerly the 1969 Key
Employees Stock Option Plan) was amended in December 1990 to provide for the
issuance of 223,000 shares of common stock for no cash consideration to key
non-officer employees. Each employee receiving a grant of shares may dispose
of 15 percent of his/her grant on each annual anniversary date from the date
of grant for the first four years. On the fifth year anniversary, the
employee may dispose of the remaining 40 percent of his/her grant. No shares
were granted and no shares were cancelled in fiscal 1994 and 1993. At August
31, 1994 there were no shares reserved for issuance or available for granting.
The Company's 1980 Incentive Career Stock Plan ("1980 Plan") provides for
the issuance of 2,100,000 shares of common stock for no cash consideration to
key employees. Each employee receiving a grant of shares may dispose of 15
percent of his/her grant on each annual anniversary date from the date of
grant for the first four years. On the fifth year anniversary, the employee

acquired the shares at the market price (weighted average price was $7.31 per
share in fiscal 1994, $5.98 per share in fiscal 1993 and $5.87 per share in
fiscal 1992). The proceeds were used to pay the employees' tax withholding
obligations arising from the vesting of shares under the Plans.

Note 10 - Employee Benefit Plans
The Parker Drilling Company Stock Bonus Plan ("Plan") was adopted
effective September 1980 for employees of Parker Drilling and its subsidiaries
who are U.S. citizens and who have completed one year of service with the
Company. It was amended in 1983 to qualify as a 401(k) plan under the
Internal Revenue Code which permits a specified percentage of an employee's
salary to be voluntarily contributed on a before-tax basis and to provide for
a Company matching feature. Participants may contribute from one percent to
15 percent of eligible earnings and direct contributions to one or more of
seven investment funds. The Company presently makes dollar-for-dollar
matching contributions up to three percent of a Participant's compensation.
The Company's matching contribution is made in Parker Drilling common stock.
The Plan was amended in 1989 to change the vesting schedule to no percent
vesting if a Participant has less than five years of service and 100 percent
vesting if a Participant has five or more years of service. Each Plan year,
Company contributions can be made, at the discretion of the Board of
Directors, in amounts not exceeding the permissible deductions under the
Internal Revenue Code. The Company issued 123,619 shares to the Plan in 1994,
95,177 shares in 1993 and 81,899 shares in 1992.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies
At August 31, 1994, the Company had letters of credit facilities of
$17,651,000 of which $7,521,000 had been issued.
Certain officers have entered into a Severance Compensation and
Consulting Agreement ("the Agreement") with the Company. The Agreement has an
initial ten year term and provides certain benefits upon a change in control.
A change in control includes certain mergers, sale of all of the Company's
assets, liquidation of the Company or a third party acquiring a greater
percentage of stock than the aggregate ownership of Robert L. Parker, Robert
L. Parker Jr. and Robert L. Parker Trust. After a change in control occurs,
if an officer is terminated other than for cause or resigns for good reason,
the Agreement provides for a payment of three times the annual cash
compensation, a one year consulting agreement at the officer's annual cash
compensation, miscellaneous executive benefits and extended life and health
benefits for four years.
A former employee ("Plaintiff") was injured while working for the Company
on a rig owned and operated by another firm ("Defendant"). The Plaintiff was
granted an award totalling $6,750,000 from the Defendant. Pursuant to the
indemnity provision in the contract between the parties, the Company provided
a defense for the Defendant. The Defendant and the Company entered into
litigation to determine liability for funding the award. Upon resolution of
this matter, the Defendant paid $1,687,000 and the Company paid $5,063,000.
The Company has filed suit against its insurance companies and outside counsel
in order to determine ultimate liability for the $5,063,000 portion that the
Company has paid. During fiscal 1994, the Company recorded a $2,562,000
expense related to this litigation.
Note 13 - Related Party Transactions
At August 31, 1994, the Company owned an insurance policy on the life of
Mr. R. L. Parker, chairman and a principal stockholder. The Company is the
beneficiary of this policy which was issued pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement ("Agreement") approved by vote of the stockholders at the 1975
Annual Meeting on December 10, 1975. This Agreement was entered into between
the Company and the Robert L. Parker Trust and provides that upon the death of
Robert L. Parker, the Company would be required, at the option of the Trust,
to purchase from the Trust at a discounted price the amount of Parker common
stock which could be purchased with the proceeds of the policy of $7,000,000.
On August 3, 1994, the Company and the Trust modified this Agreement so that
the Company will have the option but not the obligation to purchase the stock
at a discounted price with the proceeds or to retain the entire proceeds upon
the death of Robert L. Parker. If action under the agreement had been
required at August 31, 1994, and the Company elected to purchase Parker common
stock from the Trust, Parker Drilling's outstanding common stock would have
been reduced by approximately three percent.
As a part of the agreement to terminate the option held by the Trust and
to grant the Company a limited option to purchase stock at a discounted price,
the Company has also agreed to pay a premium of $655,019 annually for a split
dollar last-to-die life insurance policy on Robert L. Parker and Mrs. Robert
L. Parker. Upon the deaths of Mr. Parker and Mrs. Parker, the Company will be
reimbursed by the Robert L. Parker Sr. and Catherine M. Parker Family Trust
from the proceeds of the policy for the full amount of premiums paid plus
interest at the one-year treasury bill rate on the premiums paid after fiscal
year 1999. Additionally, Robert L. Parker Jr., Chief Executive Officer of the
Company and son of Robert L. Parker, will receive as a beneficiary of the
Trust one-third of the net proceeds of this policy. The face value of the
policy is $13,000,000.

Note 14 - Supplementary Information
Maintenance and repairs expense for the years ended August 31, 1994, 1993
and 1992 was $15,548,000, $10,149,000 and $11,061,000, respectively.
Advertising, royalties, taxes other than payroll and income taxes,
depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, pre-operating costs and
similar deferrals were each less than one percent of total revenue. At August
31, 1994, accrued liabilities included $2,236,000 of workers' compensation
liabilities and $2,714,000 of accrued payroll and payroll taxes. At August
31, 1993, accrued liabilities included $2,420,000 of workers' compensation
liabilities and $3,334,000 of accrued payroll and payroll taxes. Other

and Provision for reduction in carrying value of certain assets from Operating
income (loss), as reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
As a result of shares issued during the year, earnings (loss) per share for
the year's four quarters, which are based on average shares outstanding during
each quarter, do not equal the annual earnings (loss) per share, which is
based on the average shares outstanding during the year.
