Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Effective as of June 7, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), C&J Spec-Rent Services, Inc. (“Buyer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of C&J Energy Services, Inc. (the “Company”), completed the previously announced acquisition (the “Casedhole Acquisition”) of all of the outstanding equity interests of Casedhole Holdings, Inc. and its operating subsidiaries, including Casedhole Solutions, Inc. (collectively, “Casedhole”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain definitive purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of June 5, 2012, by and among Buyer, Casedhole Holdings, Inc. and its shareholders and option holders (collectively, the “Sellers”). The total consideration paid by the Company consisted of approximately $272.5 million in cash, plus preliminary closing adjustments of approximately $6.7 million related to excess working capital and certain capital expenditures. The Company funded the Casedhole Acquisition through $220.0 million drawn from its $400.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility, with the remainder paid from cash on hand.

Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Houston, Texas, Casedhole is engaged in the business of providing cased-hole wireline and other complementary services to energy producers in the United States.

The acquired assets include, among other things, Casedhole’s fleet of 58 wireline units and 11 pumpdown units. C&J also assumed certain liabilities of the Sellers. Casedhole’s senior management team has joined the Company to continue running Casedhole’s business as C&J’s new wireline division.
