NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lufkin Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”) and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America has been condensed or omitted pursuant to these rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals unless specified, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. For further information, including a summary of major accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.

 

2. Acquisitions

 

During the third quarter of 2003, the Company completed two strategic acquisitions that expanded its Oil Field segment. The Company purchased the remaining shares of Lufkin Argentina S.A., its 1992 Argentina joint venture with Baker Hughes, Inc, effective July 1, 2003. Lufkin Argentina manufactures and services oil field pumping units and automation equipment for use in Argentina and other South American countries. The Company also purchased the operating assets of Basin Technical Services in Midland, Texas on July 30, 2003. This acquisition enhanced Oil Field’s product and service offerings in the oil field automation marketplace. The aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions was $3.9 million in cash.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company completed the acquisition on December 9, 2003, of the operating assets and commercial operations of D&R Oil Field Services located in Drayton Valley, Alberta, Canada. This acquisition within the Oilfield segment strengthened the Company’s presence in Canada’s oil field service business. The aggregate purchase price for this acquisition was $1.9 million in cash.

 

The Company has substantially completed the purchase allocation process for these three acquisitions, but additional adjustments may be made in 2004 as final valuations and analysis of fair values are completed.
