Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On February 16, 2012, Key Energy Services, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”) announced its results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2011. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference. The information contained in this Item 2.02 (including the exhibit hereto) shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On February 15, 2012, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the Company to pursue the sale of its business and operations in Argentina (the “Argentine Business”). The Company has engaged a financial advisor to assist it with the sale process, but it has not reached a determination as to the course of action it will follow in the sale process, and it is not able to predict the completion date of the sale.

The Company is currently unable to make a good faith estimate of the amount or range of amounts expected to be incurred in connection with the sale of the Argentine Business, both with respect to each major type of cost associated therewith and with respect to the total cost, or an estimate of the amount or range of amounts that will result in future cash expenditures for such transaction. After the Company makes a determination of such estimates or range of estimates, it will provide applicable additional disclosures.
