Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
From time to time, senior management of Pioneer Energy Services (the “Company”) meets with groups of investors and business analysts. The slides attached to this report have been prepared in connection with management's participation in such meetings and participation in the Scotia Howard Weil 2015 Energy Conference on March 23, 2015. The slides provide an update on the Company's operations and certain recent developments, which among others, include the following:
Overall
Due to impacts from greater than anticipated pricing concessions, a more rapid reduction in activity levels from lower operator spending, and adverse weather in certain operating locations, we now expect:
Production service revenue to be down 28-33% relative to guidance of down 15-20% from the fourth quarter of 2014; and
Production service gross margin percent to be 27%-29% relative to guidance of 29%-31%, down from 36.1% in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Drilling
February quarter-to-date utilization was 86% based on an average fleet of 49 rigs.
Current utilization on March 23, 2015 is 76% based on a fleet of 38 rigs.
Expect to end the first quarter of 2015 with 29 rigs in the US and 8 rigs in Colombia for a total of 37 rigs.
Well Servicing
February quarter-to-date utilization was 80%.
Coiled Tubing
February quarter-to-date utilization was 36%.

The slides are included in Exhibit 99.1 to this report and are incorporated herein by reference. The slides are available on the Company's website at www.pioneeres.com.
