C&J ENERGY SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     C&J Energy Services, Inc. (“C&J”) was incorporated in Texas in 2006 and re-incorporated in Delaware in 2010. C&J is a holding company and substantially all of its operations are conducted through, and substantially all of its assets are held by, C&J Spec-Rent Services, Inc. (“Spec-Rent”) and Total E&S, Inc. (“Total”). C&J owns 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Spec-Rent, an Indiana corporation, and in April 2011 Spec-Rent acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Total, an Indiana corporation. C&J, Spec-Rent and Total are herein collectively referred to as the “Company” and Spec-Rent and Total are herein collectively referred to as the “Subsidiaries.”
     The Company provides hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing and pressure pumping services to oil and natural gas exploration and production companies operating in basins in South Texas, East Texas/North Louisiana, Western Oklahoma and West Texas/East New Mexico. Through Total, the Company also manufactures and repairs equipment for companies in the energy services industry as well as equipment to fulfill the Company’s internal equipment demands.
     The nature of its operations and the regions in which the Company operates are subject to changing economic, regulatory and political conditions. The Company is vulnerable to, among other things, near-term and long-term changes in the demand for and prices of oil and natural gas and the related demand for oilfield service operations.
Basis of Presentation
     The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have not been audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, except that the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010 is derived from audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation have been included. In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and disclosures of contingencies.
     These consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010, which are included in the Company’s final prospectus (Registration Statement No. 333-173177) dated July 28, 2011 and filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Final Prospectus”). The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.
Principles of Consolidation
     These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of C&J and its Subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of

-5-

C&J ENERGY SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, determining the following: allowance for doubtful accounts, recoverability of long-lived assets and intangibles, useful lives used in depreciation and amortization, income taxes and valuation allowances. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
     Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers and are ordinarily due upon receipt. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Provisions for doubtful accounts are recorded when it is deemed probable that the customer will not make the required payments at either the contractual due dates or in the future.
Inventories
     Inventories for the Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment consist of finished goods, including spare parts to be used in maintaining equipment and general supplies and materials for the segment’s operations. Inventories for the Equipment Manufacturing segment consist of manufacturing parts and work-in-process. See Note 8 – Segment Information for further discussion regarding the Company’s reportable segments.
     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value) and appropriate consideration is given to deterioration, obsolescence and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. Inventory consisted of the following (in thousands):
                 
    September 30,     December 31,  
    2011     2010  
Manufacturing parts
  $ 3,708     $  
Work-in-process
    3,776        
Finished goods
    19,816       8,219  
 
           
 
    27,300       8,219  
Inventory reserve
    (346 )     (37 )
 
           
 
  $ 26,954     $ 8,182  
 
           
Property, Plant and Equipment
     Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the life of the related assets, are charged to expense when incurred. Refurbishments and renewals are capitalized when the value of the equipment is enhanced for an extended period. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operating income.
     The cost of property and equipment currently in service is depreciated, on a straight-line basis, over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to 25 years.

Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Amortization
     Goodwill and other intangible assets with infinite lives are not amortized, but tested for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized either on a straight-line basis over the asset’s estimated useful life or on a basis that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are realized. No impairment was recorded in the periods presented herein.
Revenue Recognition
     All revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is complete or the equipment has been delivered to the customer, the amount is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured, as follows:
     Hydraulic Fracturing Revenue. The Company enters into arrangements with its customers to provide hydraulic fracturing services, which can be either on a spot market basis or under term contracts. The Company only enters into arrangements with customers for which it believes that collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized and customers are invoiced upon the completion of each job, which can consist of one or numerous fracturing stages. Once a job has been completed to the customer’s satisfaction, a field ticket is written that includes charges for the service performed and the chemicals and proppants consumed during the course of the service. The field ticket also includes charges for the mobilization of the equipment to the location, additional equipment used on the job, if any, and other miscellaneous consumables. Rates for services performed on a spot market basis are based on an agreed-upon hourly spot market rate. With respect to services performed under term contracts, customers are invoiced a monthly mandatory payment based on a specified minimum number of hours of service per month as defined in the contract, whether or not those services are actually utilized, upon the earlier of the passage of time or completion of the job. To the extent customers utilize more than the contracted minimum number of hours of service per month, they are invoiced for such excess at rates defined in the contract upon the completion of each job.
     Coiled Tubing and Pressure Pumping Revenue. The Company enters into arrangements to provide coiled tubing and pressure pumping services to only those customers for which it believes that collectability is reasonably assured. These arrangements are typically short-term in nature and each job can last anywhere from a few hours to multiple days. Coiled tubing and pressure pumping revenue is recognized upon completion of each day’s work based upon a completed field ticket. The field ticket includes charges for the mobilization of the equipment to the location, the service performed, the personnel on the job, additional equipment used on the job, if any, and miscellaneous consumables used throughout the course of the service. The Company typically charges the customer on an hourly basis for these services at agreed upon spot market rates.
     Materials Consumed While Performing Services. The Company generates revenue from chemicals and proppants that are consumed while performing hydraulic fracturing services. The Company charges fees to its customers based on the amount of chemicals and proppants used in providing these services. In addition, ancillary to coiled tubing and pressure pumping revenue, the Company generates revenue from various fluids and supplies that are necessarily consumed during those processes. The Company does not sell or otherwise charge a fee separate and apart from the services it provides for any of the materials consumed while performing hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing or pressure pumping services.
     Equipment Manufacturing Revenue. The Company enters into arrangements to construct equipment for only those customers for which the Company believes that collectability is reasonably

assured. Revenue is recognized and the customer is invoiced upon the completion and delivery of each order to the customer.
Stock-Based Compensation
     The Company accounts for stock-based compensation cost based on the grant date fair value by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Further information regarding stock-based compensation can be found in Note 5 – Stock-Based Compensation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
     The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued warrants, notes payable and long-term debt. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The carrying values of notes payable and long-term debt approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates. See Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further information regarding the fair value of warrants.
Income Taxes
     Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities.
     The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and noncurrent based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Earnings per Share
     Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares and ordinary share equivalents outstanding in the applicable period, as if all potentially dilutive securities were converted into ordinary shares (using the treasury stock method).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-09, “Business Combinations: Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations” (“ASU 2010-29”). ASU 2010-29 addresses diversity in the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations. If a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The Company adopted ASU 2010-29 on January 1, 2011. This update had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other” (“ASU 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 allows a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the two-step impairment test for that reporting unit would be performed. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt this update to be effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2011. This update is expected to change the process that the Company uses to determine if goodwill is impaired but is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
     On April 19, 2011, the Company entered into a new five-year $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and L/C issuer, Comerica Bank, as L/C issuer and syndication agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as documentation agent, and various other lenders. Obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company’s Subsidiaries. The Credit Facility enables the Company to borrow funds on a revolving basis for working capital needs and also provides for the issuance of letters of credit. In addition, the Company may request additional commitments of up to $75.0 million through an incremental facility upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. Up to the entire Credit Facility amount may be drawn as letters of credit, and the Credit Facility has a sublimit of $15.0 million for swing line loans. As of September 30, 2011, no amounts were outstanding under the Credit Facility leaving the entire $200.0 million available for borrowing.
     Under the terms of the Credit Facility, outstanding loans bear interest at either LIBOR or a base rate, at the Company’s election, plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.25% to 2.00% for base rate loans and from 2.25% to 3.00% for LIBOR loans, based upon the Company’s Leverage Ratio. The Leverage Ratio is the ratio of funded indebtedness to EBITDA for the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. All obligations under the Credit Facility are secured, subject to agreed upon exceptions, by a first priority perfected security position on all real and personal property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as guarantors.
     Voluntary prepayments are permitted under the terms of the Credit Facility at any time without penalty or premium.

     The Credit Facility provides for payment of certain fees and expenses, including (1) a fee on the revolving loan commitments which varies depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio, (2) a letter of credit fee on the stated amount of issued and undrawn letters of credit and a fronting fee to the issuing lender, and (3) other customary fees, including an agency fee.
     The Credit Facility contains, among other things, restrictions on the Company’s ability to consolidate or merge with other companies, conduct asset sales, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, issue guarantees, make investments, loans or advances, pay dividends, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and to make capital expenditures in excess of $100.0 million in any fiscal year, provided that up to $50.0 million of such amount in any fiscal year may be rolled over to the subsequent fiscal year and up to $50.0 million of such amount may also be pulled from the subsequent fiscal year. In addition, the capital expenditure restrictions do not apply to, among other things, capital expenditures financed solely with proceeds from the issuance of common equity interests or to normal replacement and maintenance capital expenditures.
     The Credit Facility contains customary affirmative covenants including financial reporting, governance and notification requirements. The Credit Facility requires the Company to maintain, measured on a consolidated basis, (1) an “Interest Coverage Ratio” of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 and (2) a “Leverage Ratio” of not greater than 3.25 to 1.00, as such terms are defined in the Credit Facility. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants under the Credit Facility as of September 30, 2011.
     The Credit Facility provides that, upon the occurrence of events of default, obligations thereunder may be accelerated and the lending commitments terminated. Such events of default include, among other things, payment defaults to lenders, failure to meet covenants, material inaccuracies of representations or warranties, cross defaults to other indebtedness, insolvency, bankruptcy, ERISA and judgment defaults, and change in control, which includes (1) a change in control under certain unsecured indebtedness issued by the Company or its Subsidiaries, (2) a person or group other than certain permitted holders becoming the beneficial owner of 35% or more of the Company’s voting securities, or (3) the board of directors being comprised for a period of 18 consecutive months of individuals who were neither members at the beginning of such period nor approved by individuals who were members at the beginning of such period.
     Each loan and issuance of a letter of credit under the Credit Facility is subject to the conditions that the representations and warranties in the loan documents remain true and correct in all material respects and no default or event of default shall have occurred or be continuing at the time of or immediately after such borrowing or extension of a letter of credit.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
On May 28, 2010, the Company entered into a senior credit facility with a financial institution maturing on June 1, 2013 with maximum allowable indebtedness of $126.7 million and principal installments of $2.5 million to be paid monthly, with any remaining balance due at maturity. Under the terms of this facility, interest was payable monthly at a variable interest rate determined from a pricing scale based on debt/EBITDA ratio, with a LIBOR floor of 1.5%. This facility was retired on April 19, 2011 with funds received from the new Credit Facility (as defined below) used to pay down remaining principal and accrued interest. The Company recognized approximately $2.4 million in remaining deferred financing costs associated with the early extinguishment of this facility as Loss on early extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statements of operations.

Subordinated Term Loan
     On May 28, 2010, the Company entered into a $25.0 million subordinated term loan with a financial institution maturing on June 30, 2014. Under the term loan, interest was payable monthly at a rate of LIBOR plus 13%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.0%. The term loan was retired on April 19, 2011 using funds received from the new Credit Facility to pay down remaining principal and accrued interest. The Company incurred $4.7 million in early termination penalties as a result of the early extinguishment and wrote off approximately $0.5 million in remaining deferred financing costs. These costs were recognized as Loss on early extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statements of operations.
Note 3 — Derivative Liabilities
     The Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts. The guidance provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The topic also indicates that “contracts issued or held by that reporting entity that are both (1) indexed to its own stock and (2) classified in stockholders’ equity in its statement of financial position” should not be considered derivative instruments.
     During 2009, the Company amended and restated the debt agreement associated with an outstanding term loan. In conjunction with this amendment and restatement, the Company executed and delivered a warrant agreement to the lender, whereby the lender (herein referred to as the “Warrant-Holder”) earned warrants over the life of the term loan. Warrants began accumulating in December 2009. The warrants had an exercise price of $0.01 per share and were exercisable upon the settlement of the loan. The term loan was paid in full during 2010. The Warrant-Holder had accumulated 1,176,224 warrants as of the date of loan termination and exercised the warrants in full in December 2010.
     Prior to the implementation of the derivatives and hedging topic, the warrants, when issued, would have been classified as permanent equity because they met the exception and all of the criteria in the FASB guidance covering accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock. However, the agreements covering these warrants contained an embedded conversion feature such that if the Company made certain equity offerings in the future at a price lower than a price specified in the agreements, additional warrants would be issuable to the Warrant-Holder.
     The derivatives and hedging topic provides that an instrument’s strike price or the number of shares used to calculate the settlement amount are not fixed if its terms provide for any potential adjustment, regardless of the probability of such adjustment or whether such adjustment is in the entity’s control. If the instrument’s strike price or the number of shares used to calculate the settlement amount are not fixed, the instrument (or embedded feature) is considered to be indexed to an entity’s stock if the only variables that could affect the settlement amount would be inputs to the fair value of a “fixed-for-fixed” forward or option on equity shares.
     Under the provisions of the derivatives and hedging topic, the embedded conversion feature in the Company’s warrants were not considered indexed to the Company’s stock because future equity offerings (or sales) of the Company’s stock are not an input to the fair value of a “fixed-for-fixed” option on equity shares. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2010, the warrants were recognized as a liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Note 4 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
     The Company follows the Fair Value Measurements topic of the FASB ASC 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this standard apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.
     This guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Hierarchical levels, as defined in this guidance and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuations of these assets and liabilities are as follows:
    Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
 
    Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
 
    Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s judgment about assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability’s estimated impact to quoted prices markets.
     The reported fair values for financial instruments that use Level 3 inputs to determine fair value are based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Accordingly, certain fair values may not represent actual values of the Company’s financial instruments that could have been realized during the periods presented.
     For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded derivative liabilities on its balance sheet related to the warrants discussed in Note 3 — Derivative Liabilities. The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of these warrants using the following

-13-

(Unaudited)
assumptions: stock price of $7.70 per share, exercise price of $0.01, risk-free discount rate of 1.03%, volatility of 75% and an expected life of 4.25 years.
     Expected volatilities are based on comparable public company data. The risk-free rate is based on the approximate U.S. Treasury yield rate in effect at the time of valuation. The Company’s calculation of stock price, included in the Black Scholes valuation model, involves the use of different valuation techniques, including a combination of an income and/or market approach. Determination of the fair value is a matter of judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions.
     The warrants were exercised in December 2010. The final value of the warrants, upon exercise, was determined based on the value of the underlying common stock included in a private offering of the Company’s common stock that occurred during December 2010 ($10.00 per share).
     A reconciliation of the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) is as follows (in thousands):

     The Company is not a party to any hedge arrangements, commodity swap agreements or any other derivative financial instruments.
Note 5 — Stock-Based Compensation
     Prior to December 23, 2010, all options granted to the Company’s employees were granted under the C&J Energy Services, Inc. 2006 Stock Option Plan (the “2006 Plan”). The 2006 Plan provided for awards of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, and other stock based awards to employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors. Only non-qualified stock options were awarded under the 2006 Plan. Options awarded under the 2006 Plan generally vested 20% on the date of grant and another 20% on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date. However, two employees were given fully vested options on the date of grant. On December 23, 2010, the 2006 Plan was amended to provide, among other things, that (1) no additional awards would be granted under the 2006 Plan, (2) all awards outstanding under the 2006 Plan would continue to be subject to the terms of the 2006 Plan, and (3) all unvested options under the 2006 Plan would immediately vest and become exercisable in connection with the completion of a private placement of the Company’s common stock that occurred in December 2010.
     On December 23, 2010, the Company adopted the C&J Energy Services, Inc. 2010 Stock Option Plan (the “2010 Plan”). The Company’s 2010 Plan permits the grant of non-statutory stock options and incentive stock options to its employees, consultants and outside directors for up to 5,699,889 shares of common stock. Under the 2010 Plan, option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. Those option awards generally vest over three years of continuous service with one-third vesting on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the option’s grant date. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control, as defined in the 2010 Plan.

     The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on comparable public company data. The Company makes estimates with respect to employee termination and forfeiture rates of the options within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted is derived using the “plain vanilla” method due to the lack of history and volume of option activity at the Company. The risk-free rate is based on the approximate U.S. Treasury yield rate in effect at the time of grant. For options granted prior to the Company’s initial public offering, the calculation of the Company’s stock price involved the use of different valuation techniques, including a combination of an income and/or market approach. Determination of the fair value was a matter of judgment and often involved the use of significant estimates and assumptions.
     During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, 1,599,335 options were granted under the 2010 Plan at exercise prices ranging from $10.00 to $29.00 per share. The key input variables used in valuing these options were: risk-free interest of 1.1% to 2.6%; dividend yield of zero; stock price volatility of 75%; and expected option lives of five to six years. No stock options were granted by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
     As of September 30, 2011, the Company had 6,742,089 options outstanding to employees and nonemployee directors, 1,819,818 of which were issued under the 2006 Plan and the remaining 4,922,271 were issued under the 2010 Plan. As of September 30, 2011 there were 777,618 shares available for issuance under the 2010 Plan.
Note 6 — Concentration of Credit Risk
     Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited because the Company performs credit evaluations, sets credit limits, and monitors the payment patterns of its customers. Cash balances on deposits with financial institutions, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company monitors the institutions’ financial condition.
Note 7 — Commitments and Contingencies
     The Company has entered into certain take-or-pay contracts that guarantee a minimum level of monthly revenue. The revenue related to these contracts is recognized on the earlier of the passage of time under terms as defined by the respective contract or as the services are performed.
     From time to time, the Company may be involved in claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Because there are inherent uncertainties in the ultimate outcome of such matters, it is presently not possible to determine the ultimate outcome of any potential claims or litigation against the Company; however, management believes that the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operation or liquidity.
Note 8 — Segment Information
     In accordance with FASB ASC 280 Segment Reporting, the Company routinely evaluates whether or not it has separate operating and reportable segments. Prior to April 2011, the Company determined that it had one operating segment with three related service lines: hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing and pressure pumping. In reaching this conclusion, management considered the following: (1) the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) evaluates performance and makes resource allocation decisions as a single business as opposed to based on discrete service lines, (2) the Company’s

-15-

(Unaudited)
business relies on a single infrastructure and uses one labor force that is available to all service lines provided, (3) the Company’s marketing efforts focus on promoting an integrated service package rather than distinct service offerings to discrete customers and (4) the Company’s compensation policy is determined with respect to overall performance rather than the performance of individual services. Each of these factors contributed to management’s conclusion that the Company operated as a single segment prior to April 2011.
     During the second quarter of 2011, the Company reevaluated whether or not it had more than one operating segment and concluded that, with the acquisition of Total in April 2011, two operating and reportable segments exist: Stimulation and Well Intervention Services and Equipment Manufacturing. This determination was made based on the following factors: (1) the Company’s CODM is currently managing these two segments as separate businesses, evaluating performance and making resource allocation decisions distinctly, and expects to do so for the foreseeable future, and (2) discrete financial information for each segment is available. The following is a brief description of these segments:
     Stimulation and Well Intervention Services. This business segment has three related service lines providing hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing and pressure pumping services, with a focus on complex, technically demanding well completions.
     Equipment Manufacturing. This business segment constructs equipment, conducts equipment repair services and provides oilfield parts and supplies for the Company’s Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment as well as for third-party customers in the energy services industry.
     The following tables set forth certain financial information with respect to the Company’s reportable segments. Included in “Corporate and Other” are intersegment eliminations and costs associated with activities of a general corporate nature. Financial information for the comparable 2010 periods has not been presented because, as previously mentioned, the Company did not have separate operating segments prior to the acquisition of Total.

     Management evaluates segment performance and allocates resources based on earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, loss on early extinguishment of debt and the net gain or loss on the disposal of assets (“Adjusted EBITDA”) because Adjusted EBITDA is considered an important measure of each segment’s performance. In addition, management believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of each segment’s operating performance allows investors to make a direct comparison to competitors, without regard to differences in capital and financing structure. Investors should be aware, however, that there are limitations inherent in using Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of overall profitability because it excludes significant expense items. An improving trend in Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of an improvement in the Company’s profitability. To compensate for the limitations in utilizing Adjusted EBITDA as operating measures, management also uses U.S. GAAP measures of performance, including operating income and net income, to evaluate performance, but only with respect to the Company as a whole and not on a segment basis.
     As required under Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, included below is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income, which is the nearest comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure (in thousands).

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in the “Final Prospectus.”
     This section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statement because of various factors, including those described in the sections titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q.
Overview
     We are an independent provider of premium hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing and pressure pumping services with a focus on complex, technically demanding well completions. In addition, through our subsidiary Total E&S, Inc. (“Total”), we manufacture and repair equipment for our internal needs as well as for companies in the energy services industry.
     We operate in what we believe to be some of the most geologically challenging basins in South Texas, East Texas/North Louisiana, Western Oklahoma and West Texas/East New Mexico. We are in the process of acquiring additional hydraulic fracturing fleets and are evaluating opportunities with existing and new customers to expand our operations into new areas throughout the United States with similarly demanding completion and stimulation requirements.
     We are a Delaware corporation. Our principal executive offices are located at 10375 Richmond Avenue, Suite 2000, Houston, Texas 77042 and our main telephone number is (713) 260-9900. Our Web site is available at www.cjenergy.com. We make available free of charge through our Web site all reports filed with the SEC and all amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed with the SEC. Information available on or through our Web site is not a part of or incorporated into this or any other report.
Recent Developments
     Fleet 6 Term Contract. On October 24, 2011, we announced the signing of a two-year term contract with Apache Corporation for a 32,000 horsepower hydraulic fracturing fleet for operations in the Permian Basin on a full month take-or-pay basis. We expect to take full delivery of all pumps and initially-ordered ancillary equipment for Fleet 6 in November 2011 for deployment in December 2011. At our customer’s request, and as contracted, we have ordered a complete second set of ancillary equipment for delivery in January 2012, which will enable Fleet 6 to be utilized as two independent 16,000 horsepower fleets for vertical completions, in addition to using the full 32,000 horsepower fleet to conduct horizontal work. Prior to the delivery of the additional ancillary equipment, we anticipate Fleet 6 will be used primarily for vertical completions. In the event that we are unable to commence service under our contract relating to Fleet 6 (due to equipment delivery delay or otherwise) by a specified date, the customer has the right to terminate the contract without penalty.
     Initial Public Offering (“IPO”). On July 28, 2011, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-173177) relating to the IPO of 13,225,000 shares of our common stock was declared effective by the SEC. The IPO closed on August 3, 2011, at which time we issued and sold 4,300,000 shares and selling stockholders sold 8,925,000 shares, including 1,725,000 shares sold by certain of the selling stockholders pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares. The shares were sold at a price to the public of $29.00 per share. We received cash proceeds of approximately

-21-


Table of Contents

$112.3 million from this transaction, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and transaction costs. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholders.
     Expansion of Total. On April 28, 2011, we acquired Total, a manufacturer of hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing, pressure pumping and other equipment used in the energy services industry and one of our largest suppliers of machinery and equipment. In addition to equipment manufacturing, through Total we also conduct equipment repair services and provide other oilfield parts and supplies for third-party customers in the energy services industry as well as to meet our own internal needs. Following our acquisition of Total, we acquired approximately 10 acres of property adjacent to Total’s current facility and began construction of an approximate 36,000 square foot manufacturing facility. We currently expect our new facility to be completed by December 2011. The total cost of construction of the facility is expected to be approximately $2.0 million. By significantly increasing Total’s manufacturing capacity, we expect to further increase its ability to service our Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment and existing and future third-party customers.
How We Generate Our Revenues
     We seek to differentiate our services from those of our competitors by providing customized solutions for our customers’ most challenging well completions. We believe our customers value the experience, technical expertise, high level of customer service and demonstrated operational efficiencies that we bring to projects.
     We have entered into term contracts with EOG Resources (executed April 2010), Penn Virginia (executed May 2010), Anadarko Petroleum (executed August 2010), EXCO Resources (executed August 2010) Plains Exploration (executed March 2011), and Apache Corporation (executed October 2011) for the provision of hydraulic fracturing services. We began service under the Penn Virginia, EOG Resources, Anadarko Petroleum, EXCO Resources and Plains Exploration contracts in July 2010, August 2010, February 2011, April 2011 and August 2011, respectively. Our existing hydraulic fracturing fleets (Fleets 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) are dedicated through mid-2012, mid-2012, early 2013, mid-2014 and mid-2013, respectively, to producers operating in the Eagle Ford, Haynesville and Granite Wash basins. We are scheduled to take delivery of Fleet 6 in November 2011 for deployment in December 2011 under a two-year term contract with Apache Corporation and will be working primarily in the Permian Basin of West Texas/East New Mexico. We are scheduled to take delivery of Fleets 7 and 8 in the first half of 2012 and the second half of 2012, respectively. We are seeking to deploy each of these new fleets under term contracts similar to our existing term contracts.
     Our revenues are derived primarily from three sources:
    monthly payments for the committed hydraulic fracturing fleets under term contracts as well as prevailing market rates for spot market work, together with associated charges or handling fees for chemicals and proppants that are consumed during the fracturing process;
 
    prevailing market rates for coiled tubing, pressure pumping and other related well stimulation services, together with associated charges for stimulation fluids, nitrogen and coiled tubing materials; and
 
    sales of manufactured equipment, parts and supplies and repair services provided through our recently acquired subsidiary, Total E&S, Inc., a manufacturer of hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing, pressure pumping and other equipment used in the energy services industry.

     Stimulation and Well Intervention Services Segment
     Our Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment encompasses three related service lines providing hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing and pressure pumping services, with a focus on complex, technically demanding well completions.
     Hydraulic Fracturing. Approximately 83% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were derived from hydraulic fracturing services. Our term contracts generally range from one year to three years. Under the term contacts, our customers are obligated to pay us on a monthly basis for a specified number of hours of service, whether or not those services are actually utilized. To the extent customers use more than the specified contract minimums, we will be paid a pre-agreed amount for the provision of such additional services. Our term contracts restrict the ability of the customer to terminate or require our customers to pay us a lump-sum early termination fee, generally representing all or a significant portion of the remaining economic value of the contracts to us.
     Although our term contracts provide us some visibility on anticipated future minimum asset utilization, our term contracts do not provide us with sufficient certainty to present backlog information on an ongoing basis. Unlike long-term contracts for equipment or services at fixed prices or on a day rate or turnkey basis, where future revenue or earnings can be reliably forecasted based on the dollar amount of backlog believed to be firm, future revenues generated from our term contracts are subject to a number of variables that prevent us from providing similar information with any degree of certainty. Under our term contracts, we derive revenues from:
    mandatory monthly payments for a specified minimum number of hours of service per month;
 
    pre-agreed amounts for each hour of service in excess of the contracted minimum number of hours of service per month; and
 
    pre-agreed service charges for chemicals and proppant materials that are consumed during the fracturing process.
     Given these variables, revenues from our term contracts vary substantially from customer-to-customer and from month-to-month depending on the number of hours of services actually provided and chemicals and proppant materials consumed. Generally, when we exceed the number of hours of service included in our base monthly rate, we consume more chemicals and proppants and provide additional pumping and related services to complete the project, each of which will significantly impact our revenues. Mandatory monthly payments under our term contracts have historically accounted for less than half of our total revenues.
     Although we have entered into term contracts for each of our existing hydraulic fracturing fleets, we also have the flexibility to pursue spot market projects. Our term contracts allow us to supplement monthly contract revenue by deploying equipment on short-term spot market jobs on those days when the contract customer does not require our services or is not entitled to our services under the applicable term contract. We charge prevailing market prices per hour for spot market work. We may also charge fees for set up and mobilization of equipment depending on the job. Generally, these fees and other charges vary depending on the equipment and personnel required for the job and market conditions in the region in which the services are performed. We also source chemicals and proppants that are consumed during the fracturing process and we charge our customers a fee for materials consumed in the process, or we charge our customers a handling fee for any chemicals and proppants supplied by the customer. Materials charges reflect the cost of the materials plus a markup and are based on the actual quantity of materials used in the fracturing process. We believe our ability to provide services in the spot market allows us to take advantage of any favorable pricing that may exist in this market and allows us to develop new customer relationships.

-23-


Table of Contents

     Coiled Tubing and Pressure Pumping. Our coiled tubing, pressure pumping and other related well intervention services are generally provided in the spot market at prevailing prices per hour. We may also charge fees for set up and mobilization of equipment depending on the job. The set-up charges and hourly rates are determined by a competitive bid process and vary with the type of service to be performed, the equipment and personnel required for the job and market conditions in the region in which the service is performed. We also charge customers for the materials, such as stimulation fluids, nitrogen and coiled tubing materials, that we use in each job. Materials charges reflect the cost of the materials plus a markup and are based on the actual quantity of materials used for the project.
     Equipment Manufacturing Segment.
     Our equipment manufacturing business constructs oilfield equipment, including hydraulic fracturing pumps, coiled tubing units, pressure pumping units and other equipment, for our Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment as well as for third party customers in the energy services industry. This business also provides equipment repair services and oilfield parts and supplies to the energy services industry.
How We Manage Costs and Maintain Our Equipment
     The principal expenses involved in conducting our business are costs for chemicals, proppants and other materials, labor expenses, maintenance and repair of our equipment, costs to replace tubing on our coiled tubing units, depreciation expense and fuel costs. Additionally, we incur freight costs to deliver and stage chemicals and proppants to the worksite. Proppant, chemical and associated freight costs represented approximately 33.9% and 35.9% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Direct labor costs represented approximately 8.5% and 10.9% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Repair and maintenance costs represented approximately 7.3% and 6.4% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Tubing replacement costs represented approximately 2.0% and 3.9% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Depreciation costs represented approximately 2.5% and 4.5% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We also incur significant fuel costs in connection with the operation of our hydraulic fracturing fleets and the transportation of our equipment and products.
     We maintain and repair all equipment we use in our operations. We primarily purchase replacement components for our equipment, including engines, transmissions, radiators, motors and pumps, from third-party vendors. Our acquisition of Total in April 2011, who has historically been one of our largest suppliers of machinery and equipment, provides several strategic advantages, including a significant reduction in our exposure to third-party supply chain constraints, shorter cycle times for the delivery of new equipment and some replacement parts, a reduction in and greater control of the cost of new equipment, and enhanced operational control of our service offerings. Furthermore, the acquisition of Total is expected to help minimize downtime by enhancing our capabilities for maintenance and repair of our hydraulic fracturing equipment. Total is currently constructing the hydraulic fracturing pumps for all three of our on-order fleets.
How We Manage Our Operations
     Our management team uses a variety of tools to monitor and manage our operations in the following four areas: (1) asset utilization, (2) equipment maintenance performance, (3) customer satisfaction and (4) safety performance.
     Asset Utilization. We measure our activity levels by the total number of jobs completed by each of our hydraulic fracturing fleets and coiled tubing units on a monthly basis. By consistently monitoring the activity level, pricing and relative performance of each of our fleets and units, we can more efficiently allocate our personnel and equipment to maximize revenue generation.

-24-


Table of Contents

     Our hydraulic fracturing business contributed $191.8 million of revenue and completed 1,065 fracturing stages during the third quarter of 2011, compared to $150.6 million of revenue and 856 fracturing stages for the previous quarter. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we averaged monthly revenue per unit of horsepower of $407 compared to $371 for the previous quarter. Hydraulic fracturing revenue for the third quarter of 2010 was $67.0 million and 291 fracturing stages were completed.
     Our coiled tubing operations contributed $25.6 million of revenue and we completed 877 coiled tubing jobs during the third quarter of 2011, compared to $22.1 million of revenue and 819 coiled tubing jobs for the previous quarter. Coiled tubing revenue for the third quarter of 2010 was $14.2 million and 563 jobs were completed. We entered the third quarter of 2011 with a fleet of 14 coiled tubing units, took delivery and deployed one unit during the quarter, ending with a fleet of 15 coiled tubing units. Our pressure pumping business generated $5.3 million of revenue during the third quarter of 2011, up from $5.0 million during the second quarter of 2011 and $2.7 million during the prior year quarter.
     Equipment Maintenance Performance. Preventative maintenance on our equipment is an important factor in our profitability. If our equipment is not maintained properly, our repair costs may increase and, during periods of high activity, our ability to operate efficiently could be significantly diminished due to having trucks and other equipment out of service. Our maintenance crews perform regular inspections and preventative maintenance on each of our trucks and other mechanical equipment. Our management monitors the performance of our maintenance crews at each of our service centers by reviewing ongoing inspection and maintenance activity and monitoring the level of maintenance expenses as a percentage of revenue. A rising level of maintenance expenses as a percentage of revenue at a particular service center can be an early indication that our preventative maintenance schedule is not being followed. In this situation, management can take corrective measures to help reduce maintenance expenses as well as ensure that maintenance issues do not interfere with operations.
     Customer Satisfaction. Upon completion of each job, we encourage our customers to provide feedback on their satisfaction level. Customers evaluate our performance under various criteria and comment on their overall satisfaction level. This feedback gives our management valuable information from which to identify performance issues and trends. Our management also uses this information to evaluate our position relative to our competitors in the various markets in which we operate.
     Safety Performance. Maintaining a strong safety record is a critical component of our operational success. Many of our larger customers have safety standards we must satisfy before we can perform services for them. We maintain a safety database so that our customers can review our historical safety record. Our management also uses this safety database to identify negative trends in operational incidents so that appropriate measures can be taken to maintain and enhance our safety standards.
Our Challenges
     We face many challenges and risks in the industry in which we operate. Although many factors contributing to these risks are beyond our ability to control, we continuously monitor these risks, and we have taken steps to mitigate them to the extent practicable. In addition, we believe that we are well positioned to capitalize on the current growth opportunities available in the hydraulic fracturing market. However, we may be unable to capitalize on our competitive strengths to achieve our business objectives and, consequently, our results of operations may be adversely affected. Please read the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” of this Form 10-Q and the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Final Prospectus for additional information about the risks we face.
     Equipment Supply. The overall number of hydraulic fracturing equipment suppliers in the industry in which we operate is limited, and there has historically been high demand for this equipment. This limited capacity of supply increases the risk of delay and failure to timely deliver both our on-order equipment and any future equipment that may be necessary to grow our business. We expect to take

-25-


Table of Contents

delivery of three new hydraulic fracturing fleets, Fleets 6, 7 and 8, in November 2011, in the first half of 2012 and in the second half of 2012, respectively. To mitigate the risk of a potential delay in equipment delivery, we actively monitor the progression of the production schedule of our on-order equipment. Our recent acquisition of Total, a significant supplier of our hydraulic fracturing equipment, has provided us with added monitoring capabilities and control over access to, and delivery of, new fracturing equipment.
     Hydraulic Fracturing Legislation and Regulation. Legislation has been introduced before Congress in the last few sessions to provide for federal regulation of hydraulic fracturing and to require disclosure of the chemicals used in the fracturing process. Although the federal legislation did not pass, if similar federal legislation is introduced and becomes law in the future, the legislation could establish an additional level of regulation that could lead to operational delays or increased operating costs. The federal Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) also recently proposed rules that would establish new air emission controls for oil and natural gas production and natural gas processing operations. Among other controls, the rules would require operators to use “green completions” for hydraulic fracturing, meaning operators would have to recover rather than vent the gas and natural gas liquids that come to the surface during completion of the fracturing process. In addition, various state and local governments have implemented, or are considering, increased regulatory oversight of hydraulic fracturing, and Texas has adopted legislation that requires disclosure of information regarding the substances used in the hydraulic fracturing process to the Railroad Commission of Texas and the public.
     The adoption of new laws or regulations imposing reporting obligations on, or otherwise limiting or regulating, the hydraulic fracturing process could make it more difficult to complete oil and natural gas wells in shale formations, increase our and our customers’ costs of compliance, and adversely affect the hydraulic fracturing services that we render for our exploration and production customers. In addition, if hydraulic fracturing becomes regulated at the federal level as a result of federal legislation or regulatory initiatives by the EPA, fracturing activities could become subject to additional permitting or regulatory requirements, and also to attendant permitting delays and potential increases in cost, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
     Financing Future Growth. Historically, we have funded our growth through bank debt, capital contributions and borrowings from our stockholders, and cash generated from our business. The successful execution of our growth strategy depends on our ability to raise capital as needed to, among other things, finance the purchase of additional hydraulic fracturing fleets. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows or to obtain additional capital on favorable terms or at all, we may be unable to sustain or increase our current level of growth in the future. However, we believe we are well positioned to finance our future growth. On April 19, 2011, we entered into a new five-year $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility, which increased the amount of funds we are permitted to borrow by $48.3 million and increased the amount of borrowings we can incur in a given fiscal year for capital expenditures by $60.0 million. In addition, our cash flows from operations have continued to increase, with cash flows from operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 increasing by $113.4 million from the same period in 2010. We believe that the combination of our cash on hand, which is currently $47 million, our cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our credit agreement will be sufficient to allow us to sustain or increase our current growth through at least 2012.
Outlook
     Demand for hydraulic fracturing services has increased significantly over the last two years in the markets in which we operate and we have made substantial investments in the acquisition of additional fracturing fleets in order to capitalize on the market opportunity, which has led to significant growth in our business. We believe the following trends impacting our industry have increased the demand for our services and will continue to support the sustained growth that we have experienced to date:
    increased drilling in unconventional resource basins, particularly liquids-rich formations, through the application of horizontal drilling and completion technologies;

-26-


Table of Contents

    improved drilling efficiencies increasing the number of horizontal feet per day requiring completion services;
 
    increased hydraulic fracturing intensity, particularly with increasingly longer laterals and a greater number of fracturing stages, in more demanding and technically complex formations; and
 
    tight supply of hydraulic fracturing equipment resulting from increased attrition of existing equipment and supply chain constraints.
Results of Operations
     Our results of operations are driven primarily by four interrelated variables: (1) drilling and stimulation activities of our customers, (2) the prices we charge for our services, (3) cost of products, materials and labor and (4) our service performance. Because we typically pass the cost of raw materials, such as proppants and chemicals, onto our customers, our profitability is not materially impacted by changes in the costs of these materials. To a large extent, the pricing environment for our services will dictate our level of profitability. To mitigate the volatility in utilization and pricing for the services we offer, we have entered into term contracts covering each of our five existing fleets and our new sixth fleet which is expected to be delivered in November 2011 and deployed in December 2011. We are seeking to deploy our two on-order hydraulic fracturing fleets to be delivered in 2012 under contracts similar to our existing contracts.
     We expect that our revenues and results of operations will continue to be positively impacted by: (1) the addition and deployment of Fleet 2 in July 2010; (2) the addition and deployment of Fleet 3 in January 2011; (3) the addition and deployment of Fleet 4 in April 2011; (4) the addition and deployment of Fleet 5 in August 2011 and (5) the acquisition of Total in April 2011. In the near term, we also expect our revenues and results of operations to be positively impacted by the deployment of Fleets 6, 7 and 8 in December 2011, the first half of 2012 and the second half of 2012, respectively. We expect that our results of operations in 2011 compared to 2010 will be significantly impacted by the dramatic growth of our asset base over the last twelve months.

Revenue
     Revenue increased $145.1 million, or 173%, to $229.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $83.9 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was primarily due to the deployment of additional hydraulic fracturing equipment in our Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment. Fleets 3, 4 and 5, which were deployed in January 2011, April 2011 and August 2011, respectively, contributed $98.7 million of revenue in the third quarter of 2011. In addition, we experienced increased utilization of our equipment across all service lines as well as improved pricing for our services. We continued to benefit from increased horizontal drilling and completion-related activity in unconventional resource plays, which enabled us to obtain higher revenues for our hydraulic fracturing services due to the complexity of the work performed in these areas. Our Equipment Manufacturing segment, which we added with the acquisition of Total in April 2011, contributed $6.4 million of revenue during the third quarter of 2011.
Cost of Sales
     Cost of sales increased $86.3 million, or 164%, to $138.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $52.6 million for the same period in 2010. As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales decreased to 61% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from 63% for the same period in 2010 due primarily to the significant increase in revenue in the third quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
     SG&A increased $11.0 million, or 236%, to $15.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $4.7 million for the same period in 2010. The increase primarily related to $3.5 million in higher payroll and personnel costs associated with the continued hiring of personnel to support our growth and $2.9 million in higher long-term and short-term incentive costs. We also incurred $2.0 million in increased SG&A costs associated with the acquisition of Total in April 2011.
Interest Expense
     Interest expense decreased by $3.2 million, or 83%, to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2010. This decrease was due primarily to charges of $2.1 million incurred in the third quarter of 2010 in connection with the change in

fair value of our warrant liability. The warrants were exercised in December 2010. The remaining decrease was primarily attributable to lower average outstanding debt balances and, to a lesser extent, lower interest rates.
Income Taxes
     We recorded a tax provision of $27.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, at an effective rate of 37.3%, compared to a tax provision of $8.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, at an effective rate of 39.2%. The 1.9% decrease in our effective rate quarter over quarter is primarily attributable to a reduction in state tax exposure relative to our overall pretax book income.

     Revenue increased $380.0 million, or 240%, to $538.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $158.4 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was primarily due to the deployment of additional hydraulic fracturing equipment in our Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment. Fleets 2, 3, 4 and 5, which were deployed in August 2010, January 2011, April 2011, and August 2011, respectively, contributed $249.7 million of incremental revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2011. In addition, we experienced increased utilization of our equipment across all service lines as well as improved pricing for our services. We continued to benefit from increased horizontal drilling and completion-related activity in unconventional resource plays, which enabled us to obtain higher revenues for our hydraulic fracturing services due to the complexity of the work performed in these areas. Our Equipment Manufacturing segment, which we added with the acquisition of Total in April 2011, contributed $10.9 million of revenue through the third quarter of 2011.

Cost of Sales
     Cost of sales increased $216.1 million, or 210%, to $318.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $102.9 million for the same period in 2010. As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales decreased to 59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from 65% for the same period in 2010 due primarily to the significant increase in our revenues from 2010 to 2011.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
     SG&A increased $24.8 million, or 218%, to $36.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $11.4 million for the same period in 2010. The increase primarily related to $8.0 million in higher payroll and personnel costs associated with the continued hiring of personnel to support our growth and $7.7 million in higher long-term and short-term incentive costs. We also incurred $3.1 million in increased SG&A costs associated with the acquisition of Total and $0.7 million in increased professional fees.
Interest Expense
     Interest expense decreased by $9.6 million, or 72%, to $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $13.4 million for the same period in 2010. This decrease was due primarily to charges of $8.3 million incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 in connection with the change in fair value of our warrant liability. The warrants were exercised in December 2010. The remaining decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates during 2011.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt
     We incurred $7.6 million in costs associated with the early extinguishment of our previous senior credit facility and subordinated term loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. These costs consisted of $4.7 million in early termination penalties on the subordinated term loan and $2.9 million related to accelerated recognition of deferred financing costs on the previous senior credit facility and subordinated term loan. Immediately following these extinguishments, we entered into a new $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility. Please read “—Description of Our Indebtedness” below for further discussion.
Income Taxes
     We recorded a tax provision of $63.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, at an effective rate of 36.8%, compared to a tax provision of $11.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, at an effective rate of 38.8%. The 2.0% decrease in our effective rate year over year is primarily attributable to a reduction in state tax exposure relative to our overall pretax book income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Our primary sources of liquidity to date have been capital contributions from stockholders, the net proceeds that we received from our recent IPO, borrowings under our credit facilities and cash flows from operations. Our primary use of capital has been the acquisition and maintenance of equipment. During 2009, we spent significantly less on capital expenditures than we had in previous years. Our capital expenditures increased in 2010 and 2011 and we anticipate capital expenditures will continue to increase through 2012. We have ordered three new hydraulic fracturing fleets, Fleets 6, 7 and 8, which are scheduled for delivery in November 2011, the first half of 2012 and the second half of 2012, respectively. Fleet 6 has an aggregate cost of approximately $33 million, of which approximately $18.0 million had been funded as of November 4, 2011. Fleet 7 has an aggregate cost of approximately $27 million, of which approximately $5.6 million had been funded as of November 4, 2011; and Fleet 8 has an aggregate cost of approximately $27 million, of which approximately $1.0 million had been funded as of

Table of Contents

November 4, 2011. We intend to fund the remaining costs for Fleets 6, 7 and 8 through a combination of cash flows from operations, and, to the extent necessary, borrowings under our credit facility.
     On April 19, 2011, we entered into a five-year $200.0 million revolving credit facility, which we refer to as the credit facility. Proceeds from the closing of the credit facility were used to repay $49.6 million of indebtedness outstanding under our previous revolving credit facility and $29.9 million of indebtedness, accrued interest and early termination penalties under our subordinated term loan. The majority of proceeds we received from our IPO were used to pay down all amounts outstanding under our credit facility and, as such, we have no balance outstanding as of November 4, 2011.
     We continually monitor potential capital sources, including equity and debt financings, in order to meet our planned capital expenditures and liquidity requirements. Our ability to fund operating cash flow shortfalls, if any, and to fund planned 2011 and 2012 capital expenditures will depend upon our future operating performance, and more broadly, on the availability of equity and debt financing, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in our industry and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Based on our existing operating performance, we believe our cash flows and existing capital coupled with borrowings available under our credit facility will be adequate to meet operational and capital expenditure needs for the next 12 months.
     Our credit facility contains covenants that require us to maintain an interest coverage ratio, to maintain a Leverage Ratio and to satisfy certain other conditions. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications set forth in the credit agreement that evidences such credit facility. We are currently in compliance with these covenants. Please read “Description of Our Indebtedness” elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. In addition, our credit facility contains covenants that limit our ability to make capital expenditures in excess of $100.0 million in any fiscal year, provided that up to $50.0 million of such amount in any fiscal year may be rolled over to the subsequent fiscal year, and up to $50.0 million of such amount may also be pulled forward from the subsequent fiscal year. The capital expenditure restrictions do not apply to capital expenditures financed with proceeds from the issuance of our common stock or to maintenance capital expenditures. The credit facility also restricts our ability to incur additional debt or sell assets, make certain investments, loans and acquisitions, guarantee debt, grant liens, enter into transactions with affiliates, engage in other lines of business and pay dividends and distributions.
Capital Requirements
     The energy services business is capital-intensive, requiring significant investment to expand, upgrade and maintain equipment. Our capital requirements have consisted primarily of, and we anticipate will continue to be:
    growth capital expenditures, such as those to acquire additional equipment and other assets or upgrade existing equipment to grow our business; and
 
    maintenance capital expenditures, which are capital expenditures made to extend the useful life of partially or fully depreciated assets.
     We continually monitor new advances in hydraulic fracturing equipment and down-hole technology, as well as technologies that may complement our existing businesses, and commit capital funds to upgrade and purchase additional equipment to meet our customers’ needs. We expect our total 2011 capital expenditures to be approximately $143 million, of which $117.8 million has been incurred as of November 4, 2011. The remainder of our estimated capital expenditures for 2011 includes the purchase of Fleet 6, the hydraulic fracturing pumps for Fleet 7, two new coil tubing units and maintenance capital expenditures.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities
     Net cash provided by operating activities increased $113.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. This increase was primarily due to higher net income and deferred tax expense.
Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities
     Net cash used in investing activities increased $112.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. This increase was due primarily to higher capital expenditures related to the growth of our hydraulic fracturing services business, which more than doubled in size from two fleets at the end of 2010 to five fleets in the third quarter of 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 we spent $76.4 million related to our hydraulic fracturing fleet expansion. Cash used in investing activities also increased during 2011 by $27.2 million as a result of our acquisition of Total.
Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities
     Net cash provided by financing activities was $37.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to net cash used in financing activities of $3.2 million for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily due to net proceeds from our IPO, partially offset by repayment of long-term debt.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
     We had no off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K, as of September 30, 2011.
Description of Our Indebtedness
     Senior Secured Credit Agreement. On April 19, 2011, we entered into a new five-year $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and L/C issuer, Comerica Bank, as L/C issuer and syndication agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as documentation agent, and various lenders. Our obligations under our credit facility are guaranteed by our subsidiaries C&J Spec-Rent Services, Inc. and Total (the “Subsidiaries”).

Our credit facility enables us to borrow funds on a revolving basis for working capital needs and also provides for the issuance of letters of credit. In addition, we may request additional commitments of up to $75.0 million through an incremental facility upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. Up to the entire credit facility amount may be drawn as letters of credit, and the credit facility has a sublimit of $15.0 million for swing line loans. As of November 4, 2011, there were no amounts outstanding under our credit facility, leaving the entire $200.0 million available for borrowing.
     Loans under our credit facility are denominated in U.S. dollars and will mature on April 19, 2016. Outstanding loans bear interest at either LIBOR or a base rate, at our election, plus an applicable margin which ranges from 1.25% to 2.00% for base rate loans and from 2.25% to 3.00% for LIBOR loans, based upon our Leverage Ratio. The Leverage Ratio is the ratio of funded indebtedness to EBITDA for us and our subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
     All obligations under our credit facility are secured, subject to agreed upon exceptions, by a first priority perfected security position on all real and personal property of us and our Subsidiaries, as guarantors.
     Voluntary prepayments are permitted under the terms of our credit facility at any time without penalty or premium.
     Our credit facility provides for payment of certain fees and expenses, including (1) a fee on the revolving loan commitments which varies depending on our Leverage Ratio, (2) a letter of credit fee on the stated amount of issued and undrawn letters of credit and a fronting fee to the issuing lender, and (3) other customary fees, including an agency fee.
     Our credit facility contains, among other things, restrictions on our and our guarantors’ ability to consolidate or merge with other companies, conduct asset sales, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, issue guarantees, make investments, loans or advances, pay dividends, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and to make capital expenditures in excess of $100.0 million in any fiscal year, provided that up to $50.0 million of such amount in any fiscal year may be rolled over to the subsequent fiscal year and up to $50.0 million of such amount may also be pulled forward from the subsequent fiscal year. The capital expenditure restrictions do not apply to, among other things, capital expenditures financed solely with proceeds from the issuance of common equity interests or to normal replacement and maintenance capital expenditures.
     Our credit facility contains customary affirmative covenants including financial reporting, governance and notification requirements. Our credit facility requires us to maintain, measured on a consolidated basis, (1) an “Interest Coverage Ratio” of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 and (2) a “Leverage Ratio” of not greater than 3.25 to 1.00 as such terms are defined in our credit facility. We are currently in compliance with all debt covenants.
     Our credit facility provides that, upon the occurrence of events of default, our obligations thereunder may be accelerated and the lending commitments terminated. Such events of default include, among other things, payment defaults to lenders, failure to meet covenants, material inaccuracies of representations or warranties, cross defaults to other indebtedness, insolvency, bankruptcy, ERISA and judgment defaults, and change in control, which includes (1) a change in control under certain unsecured indebtedness issued by us or our Subsidiaries, (2) a person or group other than certain permitted holders becoming the beneficial owner of 35% or more of our voting securities, or (3) our board of directors being comprised for a period of 18 consecutive months of individuals who were neither members at the beginning of such period nor approved by individuals who were members at the beginning of such period.
     Each loan and issuance of a letter of credit under the credit facility is subject to the conditions that the representations and warranties in the loan documents remain true and correct in all material respects

and no default or event of default shall have occurred or be continuing at the time of or immediately after such borrowing or extension of a letter of credit.
Critical Accounting Policies
     The selection and application of accounting policies is an important process that has developed as our business activities have evolved and as the accounting standards have developed. Accounting standards generally do not involve a selection among alternatives, but involve the implementation and interpretation of existing standards, and the use of judgment applied to the specific set of circumstances existing in our business. We make every effort to properly comply with all applicable standards on or before their adoption, and we believe the proper implementation and consistent application of the accounting standards are critical.
     Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. The results of our analysis form the basis for making assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
     We believe the following critical accounting policies involve significant areas of management’s judgments and estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
     Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the life of the related assets, are charged to expense when incurred. Refurbishments and renewals are capitalized when the life of the equipment is enhanced for an extended period. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operating income. The cost of property and equipment currently in service is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to 25 years. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation expense was $5.4 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Depreciation expense was $13.2 million and $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
     Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Amortization. Goodwill and other intangible assets with infinite lives are not amortized, but tested for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized either on a straight-line basis over the asset’s estimated useful life or on a basis that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are realized. The impairment test requires the allocation of goodwill and all other assets and liabilities to reporting units. We perform impairment tests on the carrying value of goodwill for each of our reporting units at least annually. Our annual impairment tests involve the use of different valuation techniques, including a combination of the income and market approach, to determine the fair value of each reporting unit. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is a matter of judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is less than its carrying value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, there were no indicators of impairment. Significant and unanticipated changes to these assumptions could require an additional provision for impairment in a future period.

-34-


Table of Contents

     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We assess the impairment of our long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Such indicators include changes in our business plans, a change in the physical condition of a long-lived asset or the extent or manner in which it is being used, or a severe or sustained downturn in the oil and natural gas industry.
     Recoverability is assessed by using undiscounted future net cash flows of assets grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. If the undiscounted future net cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset is deemed impaired. The amount of the impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset.
     We make estimates and judgments about future undiscounted cash flows and fair values. Although our cash flow forecasts are based on assumptions that are consistent with our plans, there is a significant degree of judgment involved in determining the cash flows attributable to a long-lived asset over its estimated remaining useful life. Our estimates of anticipated cash flows could be reduced significantly in the future and as a result, the carrying amounts of our long-lived assets could be subject to impairment charges in the future.
     Revenue Recognition. All revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is complete or the equipment has been delivered to the customer, the amount is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured, as follows:
     Hydraulic Fracturing Revenue. We enter into arrangements with our customers to provide hydraulic fracturing services, which can be either on a spot market basis or under term contracts. We only enter into arrangements with customers for which we believe that collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized and customers are invoiced upon the completion of each job, which can consist of one or numerous fracturing stages. Once a job has been completed to the customer’s satisfaction, a field ticket is written that includes charges for the service performed and the chemicals and proppants consumed during the course of the service. The field ticket also includes charges for the mobilization of the equipment to the location, additional equipment used on the job, if any, and other miscellaneous consumables. Rates for services performed on a spot market basis are based on an agreed-upon hourly spot market rate. With respect to services performed under term contracts, customers are invoiced a monthly mandatory payment based on a specified minimum number of hours of service per month as defined in the contract, whether or not those services are actually utilized, upon the earlier of the passage of time or completion of the job. To the extent customers utilize more than the contracted minimum number of hours of service per month, they are invoiced for such excess at rates defined in the contract upon the completion of each job.
     Coiled Tubing and Pressure Pumping Revenue. We enter into arrangements to provide coiled tubing and pressure pumping services to only those customers for which we believe that collectability is reasonably assured. These arrangements are typically short-term in nature and each job can last anywhere from a few hours to multiple days. Coiled tubing and pressure pumping revenue is recognized upon completion of each day’s work based upon a completed field ticket. The field ticket includes charges for the mobilization of the equipment to the location, the service performed, the personnel on the job, additional equipment used on the job, if any, and miscellaneous consumables used throughout the course of the service. We typically charge the customer on an hourly basis for these services at agreed upon spot market rates.
     Materials Consumed While Performing Services. We generate revenue from chemicals and proppants that are consumed while performing hydraulic fracturing services. We charge fees to our customers based on the amount of chemicals and proppants used in providing these services. In addition, ancillary to coiled tubing and pressure pumping revenue, we generate revenue from various fluids and supplies that are necessarily consumed during those processes. We do not sell or otherwise charge a fee

separate and apart from the services we provide for any of the materials consumed while performing hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing or pressure pumping services.
     Equipment Manufacturing Revenue. We enter into arrangements to construct equipment for only those customers for which we believe that collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized and the customer is invoiced upon the completion and delivery of each order to the customer.
     Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers and are ordinarily due upon receipt. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Provisions for doubtful accounts are recorded when it is deemed probable that the customer will not make the required payments at either contractual due dates or in the future. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $0.7 million at September 30, 2011 and $0.5 million at December 31, 2010. Bad debt expense was $67,500 and $66,800 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $205,000 and $436,700 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
     Stock-Based Compensation. We recognize compensation expense related to stock-based awards based on the grant date estimated fair value. We amortize the fair value of stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period. The determination of the fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and requires the use of highly subjective assumptions. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires inputs such as the expected term of the grant, expected volatility and risk-free interest rate. Further, the forfeiture rate also affects the amount of aggregate compensation that we are required to record as an expense.
     We will continue to use judgment in evaluating the expected term, volatility and forfeiture rate related to our stock-based compensation on a prospective basis and will incorporate these factors into our option-pricing model.
     Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires significant management judgment. If, in the future, we determine that another method for calculating the fair value of our stock options is more reasonable, or if another method for calculating these input assumptions is prescribed by authoritative guidance, and, therefore, should be used to estimate expected volatility or expected term, the fair value calculated for our employee stock options could change significantly. Higher volatility and longer expected terms generally result in an increase to stock-based compensation expense determined at the date of grant.
     Income Taxes. Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
     Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities.
     The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when,

in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
     Effective January 1, 2009, we adopted guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 740, Income Taxes, in accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This guidance clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold an income tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and applies to all income tax positions. Each income tax position is assessed using a two step process. A determination is first made as to whether it is more likely than not that the income tax position will be sustained, based upon technical merits, upon examination by the taxing authorities. If the income tax position is expected to meet the more likely than not criteria, the benefit recorded in the financial statements equals the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon its ultimate settlement. We did not recognize any uncertain tax positions upon adoption of the guidance and had no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Management believes there are no tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the next twelve months that would significantly change our unrecognized tax benefits.
     We will record income tax related interest and penalties, if applicable, as a component of the provision for income tax expense. However, there were no amounts recognized relating to interest and penalties in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively. The tax years that remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject range from 2007 to 2010. We have identified our major taxing jurisdictions as the United States of America and Texas. None of our federal or state income tax returns are currently under examination.
     We are subject to the Texas Margin Tax, which is determined by applying a tax rate to a base that considers both revenue and expenses. It is considered an income tax and is accounted for in accordance with the provisions of the FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
     In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, “Business Combinations: Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations” or ASU 2010-29. ASU 2010-29 addresses diversity in the interpretation of pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations. If a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. We adopted ASU 2010-29 on January 1, 2011. This update had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
     In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other” (“ASU 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 allows a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the two-step impairment test for that reporting unit would be performed. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. We have elected to early adopt this update to be effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2011. This update is expected to change the process that we use to determine if goodwill is impaired but is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
