NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RPC, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“RPC” or the “Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 810, “Consolidation” and Rule 3A-02(a) of Regulation S-X. In accordance with ASC Topic 810 and Rule 3A-02 (a) of Regulation S-X, the Company’s policy is to consolidate all subsidiaries and investees where it has voting control.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which consisted of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

A group that includes the Company’s Chairman of the Board, Gary W. Rollins, controls in excess of fifty percent of the Company’s voting power.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:

● ASU No. 2020-04 — Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): The amendments in this ASU, provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the impact of the reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments, which are elective, provide expedients to contract modifications, affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or other reference rate that is expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. This ASU is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied to contract modifications and hedging relationships from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The Company plans to adopt these provisions when LIBOR is discontinued (currently expected to be in July 2022) and does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

● ASU No. 2021-08: Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers: The amendments in this ASU address diversity in practice related to the accounting for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination, by adopting guidance requiring an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer would recognize and measure the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities in the same manner that they were recognized and measured in the acquiree's financial statements before the acquisition. The company plans to adopt these provisions prospectively to business combinations occurring after January 1, 2023 and does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

3.    REVENUES

Accounting Policy:

RPC’s contract revenues are generated principally from providing oilfield services. These services are based on mutually agreed upon pricing with the customer prior to the services being delivered and, given the nature of the services, do not include the right of return. Pricing for these services is a function of rates based on the nature of the specific job, with consideration for the extent of equipment, labor, and consumables needed for the job. RPC typically satisfies its performance obligations over time as the services are performed. RPC records revenues based on the transaction price agreed upon with its customers.

Sales tax charged to customers is presented on a net basis within the consolidated statements of operations and therefore excluded from revenues.

Nature of services:

RPC provides a broad range of specialized oilfield services to independent and major oil and gas companies engaged in the exploration, production and development of oil and gas properties throughout the United States and in selected international markets. RPC manages its business as either (1) services offered on the well site with equipment and personnel (Technical Services) or (2) services and tools offered off the well site (Support Services). For more detailed information about operating segments, see Note 6.

RPC contracts with its customers to provide the following services by reportable segment:

Technical Services

●Includes pressure pumping, downhole tools services, coiled tubing, nitrogen, snubbing and other oilfield related services including wireline, well control, fishing and pump down services.

Support Services

●Rental tools – RPC rents tools to its customers for use with onshore and offshore oil and gas well drilling, completion and workover activities.

●Other support services include oilfield pipe inspection services, pipe management and pipe storage; well control training and consulting.

Our contracts with customers are generally very short-term in nature and generally consist of a single performance obligation – the provision of oilfield services.

Payment terms:

RPC’s contracts with customers state the final terms of the sales, including the description, quantity, and price of each service to be delivered. The Company’s contracts are generally short-term in nature and in most situations, RPC provides services ahead of payment - i.e., RPC has fulfilled the performance obligation prior to submitting a customer invoice. RPC invoices the customer upon completion of the specified services and collection is generally expected between 30 to 60 days after invoicing. As the Company enters into contracts with its customers, it generally expects there to be no significant timing difference between the date the services are provided to the customer (satisfaction of the performance obligation) and the date cash consideration is received. Accordingly, there is no financing component to our arrangements with customers.

RPC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Significant judgments:

RPC believes the output method is a reasonable measure of progress for the satisfaction of our performance obligations, which are satisfied over time, as it provides a faithful depiction of (1) our performance toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation under the contract and (2) the value transferred to the customer of the services performed under the contract. RPC has elected the right to invoice practical expedient for recognizing revenue related to its performance obligations.

Disaggregation of revenues:

See Note 6 for disaggregation of revenue by operating segment and services offered in each of them and by geographic regions.

Substantially all of the unbilled trade receivables disclosed were or are expected to be invoiced during the following quarter.

4.    EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. In addition, the Company has periodically issued share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and are therefore considered participating securities. Restricted shares of common stock (participating securities) outstanding and a reconciliation of weighted average shares outstanding is as follows:

	Three months ended

5.    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In April 2014, the Company reserved 8,000,000 shares of common stock under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan with a term of 10 years expiring in April 2024. This plan provides for the issuance of various forms of stock incentives, including, among others incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted shares. As of March 31, 2022, there were 2,188,635 shares available for grant.

Restricted Stock

The following is a summary of the changes in non-vested restricted shares for the three months ended March 31, 2022:

		Weighted Average

Forfeited	(31,925)		6.49
Non-vested shares at March 31, 2022	3,134,803	$	6.73

The total fair value of shares vested was $2,831,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $1,732,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. Excess tax benefits or deficits realized from tax compensation deductions in excess of, or lower than compensation expense are recorded as either a beneficial or detrimental discrete income tax adjustment. This was a detrimental adjustment of $669,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and a detrimental adjustment of $1,160,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted shares was $43,193,000 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 4.2 years.

6.    BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

RPC’s reportable segments are the same as its operating segments. RPC manages its business under Technical Services and Support Services. Technical Services is comprised of service lines that generate revenue based on equipment, personnel or materials at the well site and are closely aligned with completion and production activities of the customers. Support Services is comprised of service lines which generate revenue from services and tools offered off the well site and are more closely aligned with the customers’ drilling activities. Selected overhead including certain centralized support services and regulatory compliance are classified as Corporate.

Technical Services consists primarily of pressure pumping, downhole tools, coiled tubing, snubbing, nitrogen, well control, wireline and fishing. The services offered under Technical Services are high capital and personnel intensive businesses. The Company considers all of these services to be closely integrated oil and gas well servicing businesses, and makes resource allocation and performance assessment decisions based on this operating segment as a whole across these various services.

Support Services consist primarily of drill pipe and related tools, pipe handling, pipe inspection and storage services, and oilfield training and consulting services. The demand for these services tends to be influenced primarily by customer drilling-related activity levels.

The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) assesses performance and makes resource allocation decisions regarding, among others, staffing, growth and maintenance capital expenditures and key initiatives based on the operating segments outlined above.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those referenced in Note 1 to these consolidated financial statements. RPC evaluates the performance of its segments based on revenues, operating profits and return on invested capital. Gains or losses on disposition of assets are reviewed by the CODM on a consolidated basis, and accordingly the Company does not report gains or losses at the segment level. Inter-segment revenues are generally recorded in segment operating results at prices that management believes approximate prices for arm’s length transactions and are not material to operating results.

7.    CURRENT EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES

The Company utilizes an expected credit loss model for valuing its accounts receivable, a financial asset measured at amortized cost. The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily from providing oilfield services. The Company’s expected credit loss allowance for accounts receivable is based on historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions and a review of the current status of customers’ account receivable balances. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimated amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company’s monitoring activities include timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution, payment confirmation, consideration of customers’ financial condition and macroeconomic conditions. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible and recoveries of amounts previously written off are recorded when collected. Estimates used to determine the allowance for current expected credit losses are based on an assessment of anticipated payment and all other historical, current and future information that is reasonably available.

9.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Sales and Use Taxes - The Company has ongoing sales and use tax audits in various jurisdictions and may be subjected to varying interpretations of statute that could result in unfavorable outcomes. In accordance with ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, any probable and reasonable estimate of assessment costs have been included in accrued state, local and other taxes.

The Company has received a state tax notification of audit results related to sales and use tax and with its outside legal counsel has evaluated the perceived merits of this tax assessment. The Company believes the likelihood of a material loss related to this contingency is remote and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Therefore, no loss has been recorded and the Company currently does not believe the resolution of this claim will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

10.    EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The following represents the net periodic benefit cost and related components of the Company’s multiple employer Retirement Income Plan, a trusteed defined benefit pension plan:

Net periodic benefit cost	$	496	$	72

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company initiated actions to terminate the defined benefit pension plan, which is expected to be completed in early 2023. The Company currently expects to make a final cash contribution of approximately $6 million to $7 million as part of the termination. As of the plan termination date, the Company will recognize a pre-tax, non-cash settlement charge representing the unamortized net loss in the plan which was approximately $23.2 million as of March 31, 2022. The final amount is subject to change based on the actual return on plan assets and the periodic actuarial updates of the net losses

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

in the plan. For the year ending December 31, 2022, the Company has utilized an expected return on plan assets of zero percent based on the current short-term rates and investment horizon as a result of the expected plan termination.

The Company did not make a cash contribution to this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or March 31, 2021.

The Company permits selected highly compensated employees to defer a portion of their compensation into the non-qualified Supplemental Retirement Plan (“SERP”). The Company maintains certain securities primarily in mutual funds and company-owned life insurance (“COLI”) policies as a funding source to satisfy the obligation of the SERP that have been classified as trading, and are stated at fair value totaling $30.2 million as of March 31, 2022 and $31.7 million as of December 31, 2021. Trading losses related to the SERP assets totaled approximately $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to trading gains of approximately $471 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The SERP assets are reported in non-current other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and changes in the fair value of these assets are reported in the consolidated statements of operations as compensation cost in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The SERP liabilities includes participant deferrals net of distributions and are stated at fair value of approximately $26.6 million as of March 31, 2022 and $29.7 million as of December 31, 2021. The SERP liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets in long-term pension liabilities and any change in the fair value is recorded as compensation cost within selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Changes in the fair value of the SERP liabilities represented unrealized losses of approximately $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to unrealized gains of approximately $586 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

11.    NOTES PAYABLE TO BANKS

The Company has a revolving Credit Agreement with Bank of America and four other lenders which provides for a line of credit of up to $100 million, including a $35 million letter of credit subfacility, and a $35 million swingline subfacility. The facility contains customary terms and conditions, including restrictions on indebtedness, dividend payments, business combinations and other related items. The revolving credit facility includes a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company's 100 percent owned domestic subsidiaries whose assets equal substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s minor subsidiaries are not guarantors. The Credit Agreement’s maturity date is July 26, 2023.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company entered into Amendment No. 5 to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”). This Amendment (1) reduced the maximum amount available for borrowing under the credit facility from $125 million to $100 million, (2) decreased the minimum tangible net worth covenant level from not less than $600 million to not less than $400 million, and (3) increased the margin spreads and commitment fees payable by RPC by 37.5 and 5 basis points, respectively, at each pricing level of the applicable rate without any changes to the leverage ratios used to calculate such spreads.

The Credit Agreement includes the following covenants: (i) when RPC’s trailing four quarter EBITDA (as calculated under the Credit Agreement) is equal to or greater than $50 million, a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 2.50:1.00 and a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 2.00:1.00, and (ii) when RPC’s trailing four quarter EBITDA is less than $50 million, a minimum tangible net worth of no less than $400 million.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

Revolving loans under the amended revolving credit facility bear interest at one of the following two rates at the Company’s election:

● the Eurodollar Rate, which is the rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offering Rate (“LIBOR”); plus, a margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.5%, based on a quarterly consolidated leverage ratio calculation; or

● the Base Rate, which is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (b) Bank of America’s publicly announced “prime rate,” and (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%; in each case plus a margin that ranges from 0.5% to 1.5% based on a quarterly consolidated leverage ratio calculation.

RPC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In addition, the Company pays an annual fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.30%, based on a quarterly consolidated leverage ratio calculation, on the unused portion of the credit facility.

The Company has incurred total loan origination fees and other debt related costs associated with this revolving credit facility in the aggregate of approximately $3.4 million. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the loan, and the remaining unamortized balance of $0.2 million at March 31, 2022 is classified as part of non-current other assets.

As of March 31, 2022, RPC had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and letters of credit outstanding relating to self-insurance programs and contract bids totaled $16.3 million; therefore, a total of $83.7 million of the facility was available. Interest incurred, which includes facility fees on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility and the amortization of loan costs, and interest paid on the credit facility were as follows for the periods indicated:

12.  INCOME TAXES

The Company generally determines its periodic income tax expense or benefit based upon the current period income or loss and the annual estimated tax rate for the Company adjusted for discrete items including changes to prior period estimates. The estimated tax rate is revised, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during the fiscal year to the Company’s current annual estimated tax rate.

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company used the discrete method since the actual year-to-date effective rate provided a more reliable estimate of its income tax rate for the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the effective rate reflects a provision of 35.5 percent compared to a benefit of 6.9 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. In addition to the discrete method used in the first quarter of 2021, the change in effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 is mainly related to unfavorable permanent adjustments together with detrimental discrete adjustments related to restricted stock vesting and other deferred items.

13.  FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

The various inputs used to measure assets at fair value establish a hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three broad levels as follows:

1.Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

2.Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

3.Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using the Company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use.

The Company determines the fair value of equity securities that have a readily determinable fair value through quoted market prices. The total fair value is the final closing price, as defined by the exchange in which the asset is actively traded, on the last trading day of the period, multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. Marketable securities comprised of the SERP assets, are recorded primarily at their net cash surrender values, calculated using their net asset values, which approximates fair value, as provided by the issuing insurance or investment company. Significant observable inputs, in addition to quoted market prices, were used to value the trading securities. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the beginning of quarterly reporting periods. For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, there were no significant transfers in or out of levels 1, 2 or 3.

Under the Company’s revolving credit facility, there was no balance outstanding at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Borrowings under our revolving credit facility are typically based on the quote from the lender (level 2 inputs), which approximates fair value, and bear variable interest rates as described in Note 11. The Company is subject to interest rate risk, to the extent there are outstanding borrowings on the variable component of the interest rate.

The carrying amounts of other financial instruments reported in the balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company currently does not use the fair value option to measure any of its existing financial instruments and has not determined whether it will elect this option for financial instruments acquired in the future.

The Company’s real estate classified as held for sale has been stated at fair value less costs. The fair value measurement was based on observable market data that includes estimated values per square foot involving comparable properties in similar locations.

The non-recurring fair value measurement of both these asset categories are reflected in the table below:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document. See also “Forward-Looking Statements” on page 27.

RPC, Inc. (“RPC”) provides a broad range of specialized oilfield services primarily to independent and major oilfield companies engaged in exploration, production and development of oil and gas properties throughout the United States, including the Gulf of Mexico, mid-continent, southwest, Rocky Mountain and Appalachian regions, and in selected international locations. The Company’s revenues and profits are generated by providing equipment and services to customers who operate oil and gas properties and invest capital to drill new wells and enhance production or perform maintenance on existing wells. We continuously monitor factors that impact current and expected customer activity levels, such as the prices of oil and natural gas, changes in pricing for our services and equipment, and utilization of our equipment and personnel. Our financial results are affected by geopolitical factors such as political instability in the petroleum-producing regions of the world, the actions of the OPEC oil cartel, overall economic conditions and weather in the United States, the prices of oil and natural gas, and our customers’ drilling and production activities.

The discussion of our key business and financial strategies set forth under the Overview section in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 is incorporated herein by reference. In 2022, the Company’s strategy of utilizing equipment in unconventional basins has continued. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, capital expenditures totaled $19.1 million, primarily for capitalized maintenance and upgrades of our existing equipment.

During the first quarter of 2022, revenues of $284.6 million increased by $102.0 million or 55.9 percent compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenues is due to higher customer activity levels, pricing improvements and a larger fleet of pressure pumping equipment in service. International revenues for the first quarter of 2022 decreased 4.0 percent to $9.3 million compared to the same period in the prior year. We continue to pursue international growth opportunities, but the nature of this work is unpredictable and we believe that international revenues will continue to be less than ten percent of RPC’s consolidated revenues in the future.

Cost of revenues increased primarily due to increases in expenses consistent with higher activity levels, such as materials and supplies expenses, maintenance and repairs expenses, employment costs and fuel costs. In addition, these costs increased due to higher market prices for materials and supplies, fuel and other raw materials. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased due to the leverage of higher revenues over direct employment costs and a favorable job mix within pressure pumping.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $36.2 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $30.6 million in the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to increases in employment related costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 16.8 percent of revenues in the first quarter of 2021 to 12.7 percent of revenues in the first quarter of 2022 due to leverage of higher revenues over costs that are relatively fixed during the short term.

Income before income taxes was $23.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $10.4 million loss before income taxes in the same period of 2021. Diluted earnings per share were $0.07 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to a loss per share of $0.05 in the same period of 2021. Despite higher earnings, cash provided by operating activities decreased slightly to $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $9.3 million in the same period of 2021 primarily due to unfavorable changes in working capital from higher business activity levels experienced in the first three months of 2022.

We currently expect capital expenditures to be approximately $115 million during 2022 and to be directed primarily towards capitalized maintenance of our existing equipment and selected growth opportunities. In addition, RPC will make $24 million of finance lease payments during 2022 for a pressure pumping fleet acquired in 2021, inclusive of a $20 million final payment to be made in the third quarter of 2022.

RPC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Outlook

RPC monitors rig count efficiencies and well completion trends because the majority of our services are directed toward well completions. Improvements in drilling rig efficiencies have increased the number of potential well completions for a given drilling rig count; therefore, the statistics regarding well completions are more meaningful indicators of the outlook for RPC’s activity levels and revenues. Annual well completions during 2018 increased by approximately 25 percent compared to 2017, and by approximately five percent in 2019 compared to 2018. Well completions in 2020 decreased by approximately 49 percent compared to 2019 due to the impact of Covid-19. However, well completions in 2021 increased by approximately 33 percent compared to 2020.

Drilling activity in the U.S. domestic oilfields, as measured by the rotary drilling rig count, reached a cyclical peak of 1,083 during the fourth quarter of 2018. Between the fourth quarter of 2018 and the third quarter of 2020, the drilling rig count fell by 77 percent. During the third quarter of 2020, the U.S. domestic drilling rig count reached the lowest level recorded up to that time. The principal catalyst for this steep rig count decline was the decrease in the price of oil in the world markets resulting from the decline in global oil demand associated with the COVID-19 pandemic which began in the first quarter of 2020.

The current and projected prices of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids are important catalysts for U.S. domestic drilling activity. Following the trough of the most recent oilfield downturn in the second quarter of 2020, the price of oil has risen by more than 247 percent in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the average price of oil in the second quarter of 2020. The price of natural gas has risen by approximately 174 percent during the same time period, due to steady demand for natural gas and normal seasonal demand in the first quarter of 2022. Following a low price of $0.23 per gallon in the first quarter of 2020, the price of benchmark natural gas liquids has risen to $1.40 per gallon in the first quarter of 2022. In addition, oil and gas prices experienced increases beginning in February 2022 due to concerns about potential world-wide supply constraints resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The price increases in these commodities during the past year are favorable for our business, and RPC believes that they have encouraged our customers to increase drilling and completion activities.

The majority of the U.S. domestic rig count remains directed towards oil. In the first quarter of 2022, approximately 82 percent of the U.S. domestic rig count was directed towards oil, an increase compared with approximately 77 percent during the same period in the prior year. We believe that oil-directed drilling will remain the majority of domestic drilling, and that natural gas-directed drilling will remain a low percentage of U.S. domestic drilling in the near term. However, we believe that natural gas-directed drilling has increased and will continue to increase in natural gas-directed basins in the United States due to the current and projected high prices of natural gas. This trend should be favorable for the demand for RPC’s services in these basins.

We continue to monitor the market for our services and the competitive environment, including the current trends and expectations with regard to environmental concerns and related impact on our equipment fleets. The growing efficiency with which oilfield completion crews are providing services is a catalyst for the oversupplied nature of the oilfield services market. We believe that most of the feasible efficiency gains have been realized, and a number of our smaller competitors have ceased operations. These factors, combined with the increase in drilling and completion and the improvement in commodity prices, leads us to believe that the competitive market for our services will improve during the near term.

During the third quarter of 2021, RPC entered into a finance lease arrangement for a new Tier IV dual-fuel pressure pumping fleet, which immediately went to work at the beginning of the fourth quarter. In 2019, RPC expanded its fleet of revenue-producing equipment, while also retiring older equipment which could no longer function effectively in service-intensive operating environments. We have selectively upgraded our existing equipment to operate using multiple fuel sources and to take advantage of advances in technology and data collection. We will continue to monitor current and expected customer activity levels and projected financial returns as we consider activating additional idle equipment during the near term. RPC’s response to our industry’s current higher activity levels and improved service pricing is to maintain and upgrade our fleet of revenue-producing equipment as well as to add new revenue-producing equipment if the projected financial returns of such capital expenditures meet our financial return criteria.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2022 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2021

Revenues. Revenues of $284.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased 55.9 percent compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. Domestic revenues of $275.3 million increased 59.0 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenues was due to higher customer activity levels, pricing improvements and a larger fleet of pressure pumping equipment in service. International revenues of $9.3 million decreased 4.0 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

During the first quarter of 2022, the average price of natural gas was 30.4 percent higher, and the average price of oil was 63.5 percent higher, both as compared to the same period in the prior year. Oil and gas prices are higher due to continued strong demand as well as potential supply constraints worldwide due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine during the first quarter of 2022. The average domestic rig count during the first quarter of 2022 was 60.6 percent higher than the same period in 2021.

The Technical Services segment revenues for the first quarter of 2022 increased by 54.3 percent compared to the same period of the prior year due to higher activity levels and improved pricing. Technical Services reported operating income of $21.8 million during the first quarter of 2022 compared to an operating loss of $5.8 million in the first quarter of 2021. The Support Services segment revenues for the first quarter of 2021 increased by 83.3 percent compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was due principally to higher activity levels for rental tools. Support Services reported operating income of $2.8 million for the first quarter of 2022 compared to an operating loss of $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2021 due to higher pricing on rental tools.

Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues increased 42.8 percent to $208.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $146.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Cost of revenues increased primarily due to increases in expenses consistent with higher activity levels, such as materials and supplies expenses, maintenance and repairs expenses, employment costs and fuel costs. In addition, these costs increased due to higher market prices for materials and supplies, fuel and other raw materials. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased due to the leverage of higher revenues over direct employment costs and a favorable job mix within pressure pumping.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $36.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $30.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to increases in employment related costs including incentive compensation. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 16.8 percent of revenues in the first quarter of 2021 to 12.7 percent of revenues in the first quarter of 2022 due to leverage of higher revenues over cost that are relatively fixed during the short term.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased 9.5 percent to $19.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Depreciation and amortization increased due to capital expenditures in the past year.

Gain on disposition of assets, net. Gain on disposition of assets, net was $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to a gain on disposition of assets, net of $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The gain on disposition of assets, net is generally comprised of gains and losses related to various property and equipment dispositions or sales to customers of lost or damaged rental equipment.

Other income, net. Other income, net was $504 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to other income, net of $507 thousand for the same period in the prior year.

Interest expense. Interest expense was $178 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $380 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Interest expense includes facility fees on the unused portion of the credit facility and the amortization of loan costs.

Income tax provision (benefit). Income tax provision was $8.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $0.7 million tax benefit for the same period in 2021. The effective tax rate was 35.5 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to a 6.9 percent effective benefit rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The effective rate for the first quarter of 2022 reflects the impact of unfavorable permanent adjustments and detrimental discrete adjustments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents decreased $9.2 million to $73.2 million as of March 31, 2022 compared to cash and cash equivalents of $82.4 million as of December 31, 2021.

The following table sets forth the historical cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

	Three months ended March 31,
(In thousands)	2022		2021
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	8,248	$	9,264
Net cash used for investing activities		(15,259)		(7,782)
Net cash used for financing activities		(2,233)		(557)

Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $8.2 million. Cash provided by operating activities includes net income of $15.1 million coupled with a favorable change in accrued payroll expenses of $6.5 million, offset by unfavorable changes in other components of our working capital (accounts receivable, accrued insurance expense and inventories) totaling $36.7 million. These unfavorable changes were primarily due to increased business activity levels.

Cash used for investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $7.5 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily because of an increase in capital expenditures consistent with higher business activity levels.

Cash used for financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $2.2 million primarily as a result of cash paid for a finance lease initiated in the third quarter of 2021.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

The Company’s financial condition as of March 31, 2022 remains strong. We believe the liquidity provided by our existing cash and cash equivalents and our overall strong capitalization will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our requirements for at least the next twelve months. The Company’s decisions relating to the amount of cash to be used for investing and financing activities are influenced by our capital position, and the expected amount of cash to be provided by operations. RPC does not currently expect to utilize our revolving credit facility to meet these liquidity requirements.

The Company currently has a $100 million revolving credit facility that matures in July 2023. The facility contains customary terms and conditions, including restrictions on indebtedness, dividend payments, business combinations and other related items. The latest amendment to the credit facility (1) reduced the maximum amount available for borrowing from $125 million to $100 million, (2) decreased the minimum tangible net worth covenant level from not less than $600 million to not less than $400 million, and (3) increased the margin spreads and commitment fees payable by 37.5 and 5 basis points, respectively, at each pricing level of the applicable rate without any changes to the leverage ratios used to calculate such spreads. As of March 31, 2022, RPC had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and letters of credit outstanding relating to self-insurance programs and contract bids totaled $16.3 million; therefore, a total of $83.7 million of the facility was available. The Company was in compliance with the credit facility financial covenants as of March 31, 2022. For additional information with respect to RPC’s facility, see Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

Cash Requirements

The Company currently expects that capital expenditures will be approximately $115 million in 2022 and will be directed towards both capitalized maintenance of our existing equipment and selected growth opportunities. Also, during the current year, RPC will make $24 million of finance lease payments for a pressure pumping fleet acquired in 2021, inclusive of a $20 million final payment in the third quarter of 2022. The actual amount of 2022 capital expenditures will depend primarily on equipment maintenance requirements, expansion opportunities, and equipment delivery schedules.

The Company has ongoing sales and use tax audits in various jurisdictions subject to varying interpretations of statutes. The Company has recorded the exposure from these audits to the extent issues are resolved or are reasonably estimable. There are issues that could result in unfavorable outcomes that cannot be currently estimated. See Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company initiated actions to terminate the defined benefit pension plan which is expected to be completed in early 2023. The Company currently expects to make a final cash contribution of approximately $6 million to $7 million as part of the termination. The Company did not make a cash contribution to this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or March 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s stock buyback program authorizes the aggregate repurchase of up to 41,578,125 shares, including an additional 10,000,000 shares authorized for repurchase by the Board of Directors in 2018. No shares have been purchased on the open market during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 8,248,184 shares remain available to be repurchased under the current authorization. The Company may repurchase outstanding common shares periodically based on market conditions and our capital allocation strategies considering restrictions under our credit facility. The stock buyback program does not have a predetermined expiration date.

On July 22, 2019, the Board of Directors voted to suspend RPC’s dividend to common stockholders. The Company expects to resume cash dividends to common stockholders, subject to the earnings and financial condition of the Company and other relevant factors. The Company has no timetable for the resumption of dividends.

RPC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

INFLATION

The Company purchases its equipment and materials from suppliers who provide competitive prices, and employs skilled workers from competitive labor markets. If inflation in the general economy increases, the Company’s costs for equipment, materials and labor could increase as well. In addition, increases in activity in the domestic oilfield can cause upward wage pressures in the labor markets from which it hires employees, especially if employment in the general economy increases. Also, activity increases can cause supply disruptions and higher costs of certain materials and key equipment components used to provide services to the Company’s customers. Beginning in 2018, prices for the raw material comprising the Company’s single largest purchase began to decline due to increased sources of supply of the material, particularly in geographic markets located close to the largest U.S. oil and gas basin. In addition, labor costs declined throughout 2020 due to the significant decline in oilfield activity. However, during the fourth quarter of 2020, 2021 and continuing into 2022, the price of labor has been increasing due to improving oilfield activity and labor shortages caused by the departure of skilled labor from the domestic oilfield industry in prior years.

Early in 2022, market prices of some raw materials and key equipment components have increased significantly. We have successfully passed some of these costs to customers through increased pricing for our equipment and services, but due to the competitive nature of the oilfield services business, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to do this successfully in the future.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any material off balance sheet arrangements.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Marine Products Corporation

In conjunction with the spin-off of its former power boat manufacturing segment conducted through Chaparral Boats, Inc., RPC and Marine Products Corporation (Marine Products) entered into various agreements that define the companies’ relationship. RPC charged Marine Products for its allocable share of administrative costs incurred for services rendered on behalf of Marine Products Corporation totaling $253,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $219,000 for the comparable period in 2021.

Other

The Company periodically purchases, in the ordinary course of business, products or services from suppliers that are owned by officers or significant stockholders of, or affiliated with the directors of RPC. The total amounts paid to these affiliated parties were $348,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and $266,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

RPC receives certain administrative services and rents office space from Rollins, Inc. (a company of which Mr. Gary W. Rollins is also Chairman, and which is controlled by Mr. Rollins and his affiliates). The service agreements between Rollins, Inc. and the Company provide for the provision of services on a cost reimbursement basis and are terminable on three months’ notice. The services covered by these agreements include office space, selected administrative services for certain employee benefit programs, and other administrative services. Charges to the Company (or to corporations which are subsidiaries of the Company) for such services and rent aggregated $26,000 for both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the three months ended March 31, 2021.

RPC and Marine Products own 50 percent each of a limited liability company called 255 RC, LLC that was created for the joint purchase and ownership of a corporate aircraft. RPC recorded certain net operating costs comprised of rent and an allocable share of fixed costs of $50,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The discussion of Critical Accounting Policies is incorporated herein by reference from the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no significant changes in the critical accounting policies since year-end.

IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of recent accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on results of operations and financial condition.

SEASONALITY

Oil and natural gas prices affect demand throughout the oil and natural gas industry, including the demand for the Company’s products and services. The Company’s business depends in large part on the economic conditions of the oil and gas industry, and specifically on the capital expenditures of its customers related to the exploration and production of oil and natural gas. There is a positive correlation between these expenditures and customers’ demand for the Company’s services. As such, when these expenditures fluctuate, customers’ demand for the Company’s services fluctuates as well. These fluctuations depend on the current and projected prices of oil and natural gas and resulting drilling activity, and are not seasonal to any material degree.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this report that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements that relate to our business strategy, plans and objectives, and our beliefs and expectations regarding future demand for our equipment and services and other events and conditions that may influence the oilfield services market and our performance in the future. Forward-looking statements made elsewhere in this report include, without limitation, statements regarding: our ability to monitor factors that impact current and expected customer activity levels, such as the prices of oil and natural gas, changes in pricing for our services and equipment, and utilization of our equipment and personnel; the effect of geopolitical factors such as political instability in the petroleum-producing regions of the world, the actions of the OPEC oil cartel, overall economic conditions and weather in the Unites States, the prices of oil and natural gas, and our customers’ drilling and production activities on our financial results; our strategy of utilizing equipment in unconventional basins; our plans to continue to pursue international growth opportunities; our belief that international revenues will continue to be less than ten percent of our consolidated revenues in the future; our expectation that capital expenditures will be approximately $115 million during 2022 and will be directed primarily towards capitalized maintenance of our existing equipment and selected growth opportunities; our belief that the statistics regarding well completions are more meaningful indicators of the outlook for our activity levels and revenues; our belief that oil and gas price increases during the past year are encouraging and our belief that such price increases have encouraged our customers to increase drilling and completion activities; our belief that oil-directed drilling will remain the majority of domestic drilling and that natural gas-directed drilling will remain a low percentage of U.S. domestic drilling in the near-term; our belief that natural gas-directed drilling has increased and will continue to increase in natural gas-directed basins in the United States due to the current and projected high prices of natural gas and that this trend should be favorable for the demand for our services in these basins; our plans to continue to monitor the market for our services and the competitive environment, including the current trends and expectations with regard to environmental concerns and related impact on our equipment fleets; our belief that the growing efficiency with which oilfield completion crews are providing services is a catalyst for the oversupplied nature of the oilfield services market; our belief that most of the feasible efficiency gains have been realized and that a number of our smaller competitors have ceased operations; our belief that the competitive market for our services will improve during the near term; our plans to continue to selectively upgrade our existing equipment to operate using multiple fuel sources and to take advantage of advances in technology and data collection; our plans to continue to monitor current and expected customer activity levels and projected financial returns as we consider activating additional idle equipment during the near term; our plans to respond to the industry’s current higher activity levels and improved service pricing by maintaining and upgrading our fleet of revenue-producing equipment as well as adding new revenue-producing equipment if the projected financial returns of such capital expenditures meet our financial return criteria; the strength of our financial condition; expectations about contributions to the defined benefit pension plan in 2022 and thereafter; our belief that the liquidity provided by our existing cash and cash equivalents and our overall strong capitalization will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our requirements for at least the next twelve months; our belief that we will not need our revolving credit facility to meet our liquidity requirements; our expectations to resume payments of cash dividends; estimates made with respect to our critical accounting policies; the effect of new accounting standards; the effect of the changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition; and the impact of lawsuits, legal proceedings and claims on our financial position and results of operation.

The words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate,” “focus,” “plan,” and similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by our management in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes to be appropriate. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which

25

RPC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of RPC to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Risk factors that could cause such future events not to occur as expected include the following: the combined impact of the OPEC disputes and the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating results, the declines in the price of oil and natural gas, which tend to result in a decrease in drilling activity and therefore a decline in the demand for our services, the actions of the OPEC cartel, the ultimate impact of current and potential political unrest and armed conflict in the oil producing regions of the world, which could impact drilling activity, adverse weather conditions in oil or gas producing regions, including the Gulf of Mexico, competition in the oil and gas industry, the Company’s ability to implement price increases, the potential impact of possible future regulations on hydraulic fracturing on our business, risks of international operations, and reliance on large customers. Additional discussion of factors that could cause actual results to differ from management’s projections, forecasts, estimates and expectations is contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and in this 10-Q.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is subject to interest rate risk exposure through borrowings on its credit facility. As of March 31, 2022, there were no outstanding interest-bearing advances on our credit facility, which bear interest at a floating rate.

Additionally, the Company is exposed to market risk resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates. However, since the majority of the Company’s transactions occur in U.S. currency, this risk is not expected to have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures – The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, March 31, 2022 (the “Evaluation Date”), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the Evaluation Date.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting – Management’s evaluation of changes in internal control did not identify any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:

● ASU No. 2020-04 — Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): The amendments in this ASU, provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the impact of the reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments, which are elective, provide expedients to contract modifications, affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or other reference rate that is expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. This ASU is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied to contract modifications and hedging relationships from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The Company plans to adopt these provisions when LIBOR is discontinued (currently expected to be in July 2022) and does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

● ASU No. 2021-08: Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers: The amendments in this ASU address diversity in practice related to the accounting for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination, by adopting guidance requiring an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer would recognize and measure the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities in the same manner that they were recognized and measured in the acquiree's financial statements before the acquisition. The company plans to adopt these provisions prospectively to business combinations occurring after January 1, 2023 and does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

REVENUES

3.    REVENUES

Accounting Policy:

RPC’s contract revenues are generated principally from providing oilfield services. These services are based on mutually agreed upon pricing with the customer prior to the services being delivered and, given the nature of the services, do not include the right of return. Pricing for these services is a function of rates based on the nature of the specific job, with consideration for the extent of equipment, labor, and consumables needed for the job. RPC typically satisfies its performance obligations over time as the services are performed. RPC records revenues based on the transaction price agreed upon with its customers.

Sales tax charged to customers is presented on a net basis within the consolidated statements of operations and therefore excluded from revenues.

Nature of services:

RPC provides a broad range of specialized oilfield services to independent and major oil and gas companies engaged in the exploration, production and development of oil and gas properties throughout the United States and in selected international markets. RPC manages its business as either (1) services offered on the well site with equipment and personnel (Technical Services) or (2) services and tools offered off the well site (Support Services). For more detailed information about operating segments, see Note 6.

RPC contracts with its customers to provide the following services by reportable segment:

Technical Services

●Includes pressure pumping, downhole tools services, coiled tubing, nitrogen, snubbing and other oilfield related services including wireline, well control, fishing and pump down services.

Support Services

●Rental tools – RPC rents tools to its customers for use with onshore and offshore oil and gas well drilling, completion and workover activities.

●Other support services include oilfield pipe inspection services, pipe management and pipe storage; well control training and consulting.

Our contracts with customers are generally very short-term in nature and generally consist of a single performance obligation – the provision of oilfield services.

Payment terms:

RPC’s contracts with customers state the final terms of the sales, including the description, quantity, and price of each service to be delivered. The Company’s contracts are generally short-term in nature and in most situations, RPC provides services ahead of payment - i.e., RPC has fulfilled the performance obligation prior to submitting a customer invoice. RPC invoices the customer upon completion of the specified services and collection is generally expected between 30 to 60 days after invoicing. As the Company enters into contracts with its customers, it generally expects there to be no significant timing difference between the date the services are provided to the customer (satisfaction of the performance obligation) and the date cash consideration is received. Accordingly, there is no financing component to our arrangements with customers.

Significant judgments:

RPC believes the output method is a reasonable measure of progress for the satisfaction of our performance obligations, which are satisfied over time, as it provides a faithful depiction of (1) our performance toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation under the contract and (2) the value transferred to the customer of the services performed under the contract. RPC has elected the right to invoice practical expedient for recognizing revenue related to its performance obligations.

Disaggregation of revenues:

See Note 6 for disaggregation of revenue by operating segment and services offered in each of them and by geographic regions.

BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

6.    BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

RPC’s reportable segments are the same as its operating segments. RPC manages its business under Technical Services and Support Services. Technical Services is comprised of service lines that generate revenue based on equipment, personnel or materials at the well site and are closely aligned with completion and production activities of the customers. Support Services is comprised of service lines which generate revenue from services and tools offered off the well site and are more closely aligned with the customers’ drilling activities. Selected overhead including certain centralized support services and regulatory compliance are classified as Corporate.

Technical Services consists primarily of pressure pumping, downhole tools, coiled tubing, snubbing, nitrogen, well control, wireline and fishing. The services offered under Technical Services are high capital and personnel intensive businesses. The Company considers all of these services to be closely integrated oil and gas well servicing businesses, and makes resource allocation and performance assessment decisions based on this operating segment as a whole across these various services.

Support Services consist primarily of drill pipe and related tools, pipe handling, pipe inspection and storage services, and oilfield training and consulting services. The demand for these services tends to be influenced primarily by customer drilling-related activity levels.

The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) assesses performance and makes resource allocation decisions regarding, among others, staffing, growth and maintenance capital expenditures and key initiatives based on the operating segments outlined above.

Segment Revenues:

RPC’s operating segment revenues by major service lines are shown in the following table:

The following summarizes revenues for the United States and separately for all international locations combined for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The revenues are presented based on the location of the use of the equipment or services. Assets related to international operations are less than 10 percent of RPC’s consolidated assets, and therefore are not presented.

Total revenues	$	284,624	$	182,610

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those referenced in Note 1 to these consolidated financial statements. RPC evaluates the performance of its segments based on revenues, operating profits and return on invested capital. Gains or losses on disposition of assets are reviewed by the CODM on a consolidated basis, and accordingly the Company does not report gains or losses at the segment level. Inter-segment revenues are generally recorded in segment operating results at prices that management believes approximate prices for arm’s length transactions and are not material to operating results.

Summarized financial information with respect RPC’s reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are shown in the following table:

The Company utilizes an expected credit loss model for valuing its accounts receivable, a financial asset measured at amortized cost. The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily from providing oilfield services. The Company’s expected credit loss allowance for accounts receivable is based on historical collection experience, current and future economic and market conditions and a review of the current status of customers’ account receivable balances. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimated amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances and the financial condition of customers. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. The Company’s monitoring activities include timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution, payment confirmation, consideration of customers’ financial condition and macroeconomic conditions. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible and recoveries of amounts previously written off are recorded when collected. Estimates used to determine the allowance for current expected credit losses are based on an assessment of anticipated payment and all other historical, current and future information that is reasonably available.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected:

Sales and Use Taxes - The Company has ongoing sales and use tax audits in various jurisdictions and may be subjected to varying interpretations of statute that could result in unfavorable outcomes. In accordance with ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, any probable and reasonable estimate of assessment costs have been included in accrued state, local and other taxes.

The Company has received a state tax notification of audit results related to sales and use tax and with its outside legal counsel has evaluated the perceived merits of this tax assessment. The Company believes the likelihood of a material loss related to this contingency is remote and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Therefore, no loss has been recorded and the Company currently does not believe the resolution of this claim will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The following represents the net periodic benefit cost and related components of the Company’s multiple employer Retirement Income Plan, a trusteed defined benefit pension plan:

	Three months ended March 31,
(in thousands)	2022		2021
Interest cost	$	243	$	247
Expected return on plan assets		-		(377)
Amortization of net losses		253		202
Net periodic benefit cost	$	496	$	72

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company initiated actions to terminate the defined benefit pension plan, which is expected to be completed in early 2023. The Company currently expects to make a final cash contribution of approximately $6 million to $7 million as part of the termination. As of the plan termination date, the Company will recognize a pre-tax, non-cash settlement charge representing the unamortized net loss in the plan which was approximately $23.2 million as of March 31, 2022. The final amount is subject to change based on the actual return on plan assets and the periodic actuarial updates of the net losses

in the plan. For the year ending December 31, 2022, the Company has utilized an expected return on plan assets of zero percent based on the current short-term rates and investment horizon as a result of the expected plan termination.

The Company did not make a cash contribution to this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or March 31, 2021.

The Company permits selected highly compensated employees to defer a portion of their compensation into the non-qualified Supplemental Retirement Plan (“SERP”). The Company maintains certain securities primarily in mutual funds and company-owned life insurance (“COLI”) policies as a funding source to satisfy the obligation of the SERP that have been classified as trading, and are stated at fair value totaling $30.2 million as of March 31, 2022 and $31.7 million as of December 31, 2021. Trading losses related to the SERP assets totaled approximately $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to trading gains of approximately $471 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The SERP assets are reported in non-current other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and changes in the fair value of these assets are reported in the consolidated statements of operations as compensation cost in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The SERP liabilities includes participant deferrals net of distributions and are stated at fair value of approximately $26.6 million as of March 31, 2022 and $29.7 million as of December 31, 2021. The SERP liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets in long-term pension liabilities and any change in the fair value is recorded as compensation cost within selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Changes in the fair value of the SERP liabilities represented unrealized losses of approximately $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to unrealized gains of approximately $586 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

11.    NOTES PAYABLE TO BANKS

The Company has a revolving Credit Agreement with Bank of America and four other lenders which provides for a line of credit of up to $100 million, including a $35 million letter of credit subfacility, and a $35 million swingline subfacility. The facility contains customary terms and conditions, including restrictions on indebtedness, dividend payments, business combinations and other related items. The revolving credit facility includes a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company's 100 percent owned domestic subsidiaries whose assets equal substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s minor subsidiaries are not guarantors. The Credit Agreement’s maturity date is July 26, 2023.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company entered into Amendment No. 5 to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”). This Amendment (1) reduced the maximum amount available for borrowing under the credit facility from $125 million to $100 million, (2) decreased the minimum tangible net worth covenant level from not less than $600 million to not less than $400 million, and (3) increased the margin spreads and commitment fees payable by RPC by 37.5 and 5 basis points, respectively, at each pricing level of the applicable rate without any changes to the leverage ratios used to calculate such spreads.

The Credit Agreement includes the following covenants: (i) when RPC’s trailing four quarter EBITDA (as calculated under the Credit Agreement) is equal to or greater than $50 million, a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 2.50:1.00 and a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 2.00:1.00, and (ii) when RPC’s trailing four quarter EBITDA is less than $50 million, a minimum tangible net worth of no less than $400 million.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

Revolving loans under the amended revolving credit facility bear interest at one of the following two rates at the Company’s election:

● the Eurodollar Rate, which is the rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offering Rate (“LIBOR”); plus, a margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.5%, based on a quarterly consolidated leverage ratio calculation; or

● the Base Rate, which is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (b) Bank of America’s publicly announced “prime rate,” and (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%; in each case plus a margin that ranges from 0.5% to 1.5% based on a quarterly consolidated leverage ratio calculation.

In addition, the Company pays an annual fee ranging from 0.20% to 0.30%, based on a quarterly consolidated leverage ratio calculation, on the unused portion of the credit facility.

The Company has incurred total loan origination fees and other debt related costs associated with this revolving credit facility in the aggregate of approximately $3.4 million. These costs are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the loan, and the remaining unamortized balance of $0.2 million at March 31, 2022 is classified as part of non-current other assets.

As of March 31, 2022, RPC had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and letters of credit outstanding relating to self-insurance programs and contract bids totaled $16.3 million; therefore, a total of $83.7 million of the facility was available. Interest incurred, which includes facility fees on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility and the amortization of loan costs, and interest paid on the credit facility were as follows for the periods indicated:

INCOME TAXES

12.  INCOME TAXES

The Company generally determines its periodic income tax expense or benefit based upon the current period income or loss and the annual estimated tax rate for the Company adjusted for discrete items including changes to prior period estimates. The estimated tax rate is revised, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during the fiscal year to the Company’s current annual estimated tax rate.

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company used the discrete method since the actual year-to-date effective rate provided a more reliable estimate of its income tax rate for the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the effective rate reflects a provision of 35.5 percent compared to a benefit of 6.9 percent for the comparable period in the prior year. In addition to the discrete method used in the first quarter of 2021, the change in effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 is mainly related to unfavorable permanent adjustments together with detrimental discrete adjustments related to restricted stock vesting and other deferred items.

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

13.  FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

The various inputs used to measure assets at fair value establish a hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three broad levels as follows:

1.Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

2.Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

3.Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using the Company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use.

The following table summarizes the valuation of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

			Fair Value Measurements at March 31, 2022 with:
			Quoted prices in		Significant
			active markets		other		Significant

(in thousands)	Total		assets		inputs		inputs

			(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
Assets:
Equity securities	$	197	$	197	$	—	$	—
Investments measured at net asset value	$	31,738

The Company determines the fair value of equity securities that have a readily determinable fair value through quoted market prices. The total fair value is the final closing price, as defined by the exchange in which the asset is actively traded, on the last trading day of the period, multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. Marketable securities comprised of the SERP assets, are recorded primarily at their net cash surrender values, calculated using their net asset values, which approximates fair value, as provided by the issuing insurance or investment company. Significant observable inputs, in addition to quoted market prices, were used to value the trading securities. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels at the beginning of quarterly reporting periods. For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, there were no significant transfers in or out of levels 1, 2 or 3.

Under the Company’s revolving credit facility, there was no balance outstanding at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Borrowings under our revolving credit facility are typically based on the quote from the lender (level 2 inputs), which approximates fair value, and bear variable interest rates as described in Note 11. The Company is subject to interest rate risk, to the extent there are outstanding borrowings on the variable component of the interest rate.

The carrying amounts of other financial instruments reported in the balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company currently does not use the fair value option to measure any of its existing financial instruments and has not determined whether it will elect this option for financial instruments acquired in the future.

The Company’s real estate classified as held for sale has been stated at fair value less costs. The fair value measurement was based on observable market data that includes estimated values per square foot involving comparable properties in similar locations.

The non-recurring fair value measurement of both these asset categories are reflected in the table below:

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:

● ASU No. 2020-04 — Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): The amendments in this ASU, provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the impact of the reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments, which are elective, provide expedients to contract modifications, affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or other reference rate that is expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. This ASU is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied to contract modifications and hedging relationships from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The Company plans to adopt these provisions when LIBOR is discontinued (currently expected to be in July 2022) and does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

● ASU No. 2021-08: Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers: The amendments in this ASU address diversity in practice related to the accounting for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination, by adopting guidance requiring an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer would recognize and measure the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities in the same manner that they were recognized and measured in the acquiree's financial statements before the acquisition. The company plans to adopt these provisions prospectively to business combinations occurring after January 1, 2023 and does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Revenues

RPC’s contract revenues are generated principally from providing oilfield services. These services are based on mutually agreed upon pricing with the customer prior to the services being delivered and, given the nature of the services, do not include the right of return. Pricing for these services is a function of rates based on the nature of the specific job, with consideration for the extent of equipment, labor, and consumables needed for the job. RPC typically satisfies its performance obligations over time as the services are performed. RPC records revenues based on the transaction price agreed upon with its customers.

Sales tax charged to customers is presented on a net basis within the consolidated statements of operations and therefore excluded from revenues.
