NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
financial position of Newpark Resources, Inc. ("Newpark") as of June 30, 2001,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three month and six
month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. These interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the December 31, 2000 audited financial statements and related
notes filed on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three month and six
month periods ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the entire year.
Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to
conform to the current period presentation.
B. PREFERRED STOCK OFFERING
As required by EITF 98-5 "Accounting for Convertible Securities with
Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios",
during the quarter ended June 30, 2000, Newpark recorded a one-time adjustment
of $3.5 million ($.05 per share) to its equity accounts to reflect the value
assigned to the conversion feature of the Series B Preferred Stock at the date
of issuance. This adjustment did not have any effect on Newpark's operating
results or total equity. The effect of this adjustment is presented as a
dividend in the accompanying financial statements; however, Newpark issued no
additional shares or cash.
C. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The following table presents the reconciliation of the numerator and
denominator for calculating income (loss) per share in accordance with the
disclosure requirements of SFAS 128 (in thousands, except per share amounts).

Diluted $ .13 $ (.03) $ .23 $ (.02)
======= ======== ======= ========
Basic net income (loss) per share was calculated by dividing net income
(loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001, Newpark had dilutive
stock options and warrants of approximately 10.4 million shares and 7.1 million
shares, respectively, which were assumed exercised using the treasury stock
method. The resulting net effects of stock options and warrants were used in
calculating diluted income per share for these periods. Options and warrants to
purchase a total of approximately 150,000 shares and 3.4 million shares of
common stock were outstanding during the quarter and six months ended June 30,
2001, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted income
per share because they were anti-dilutive.
Options and warrants excluded from the computation of diluted loss per
share for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2000 totaled approximately
10.2 million shares. Since Newpark incurred a loss per share for these periods,
these potentially dilutive options are excluded from the computation of loss per
share, as they would be anti-dilutive.
The net effect of the assumed conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock
has been excluded from the computation of diluted income (loss) per share for
all periods presented because the effect would be anti-dilutive. The net effects
of the assumed conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Series C
Preferred Stock, for the periods that such issuances were outstanding, have been
excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the quarter and six
month periods ended June 30, 2000 because the effects of such conversions would
be anti-dilutive.

F. LONG-TERM DEBT
As of June 30, 2001, Newpark had outstanding $125 million of unsecured
senior subordinated notes (the "Notes") which mature on December 15, 2007.
Interest on the Notes accrues at the rate of 8-5/8% per annum and is payable
semi-annually on June 15 and December 15.
As of June 30, 2001, Newpark also maintained a $100.0 million bank credit
facility, including up to $25.0 million in standby letters of credit, in the
form of a revolving line of credit commitment, which expires January 31, 2003.
At June 30, 2001, $14.2 million in letters of credit were issued and outstanding
under the credit facility and $59.9 million was outstanding under the revolving
facility, leaving $25.9 million of availability. The facility bears interest at
either a specified prime rate (6.75% at June 30, 2001) or the LIBOR rate (3.82%
at June 30, 2001), in each case plus a spread determined quarterly based on the
ratio of Newpark's funded debt to cash flow. The weighted average interest rates
on the outstanding balance under the credit facility for the quarter ending June
30, 2001 and 2000 were 9.37% and 9.63%, respectively. The weighted average
interest rates on the outstanding balance under the credit facility for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 were 9.47% and 9.56%, respectively.

10
The Notes do not contain any financial covenants; however, if Newpark does
not meet the financial covenants of the credit facility and is unable to obtain
an amendment from the banks, Newpark would be in default of the credit facility
which would cause the Notes to be in default. The Notes and the credit facility
also contain covenants that significantly limit the payment of dividends on the
capital stock of Newpark. Newpark was in compliance with all covenants as of
June 30, 2001.

H. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) approved two
new accounting standards related to accounting for business combinations, and
goodwill and other intangible assets. The standards, which are numbered SFAS No.
141 and 142, among other requirements, (i) prohibit the use of
pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations, (ii)
require that goodwill not be amortized in any circumstance, and (iii) require
that goodwill be tested for impairment annually or when events or circumstances
occur between annual test indicating that goodwill for a reporting unit might be
impaired. The standards establish a new method for testing goodwill for
impairment based on a fair value concept. Newpark's current policy is to assess
recoverability of remaining goodwill based on estimated undiscounted future cash
flows. The standards will take effect for fiscal years beginning after December
31, 2001. Upon adoption, Newpark will be required to stop amortizing its
remaining goodwill balance and will be required to perform periodic impairment
tests based on a fair value concept of its goodwill. Newpark has not completed
an analysis of the potential impact from adoption of the impairment test of
goodwill; however, amortization of existing goodwill, which was approximately
$1.2 million and $2.5 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30,
2001, will cease upon adoption.
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations," which requires recording the fair value of a liability
for an asset retirement obligation in the period incurred. The standard is
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with earlier
application permitted. Upon adoption of the standard, Newpark will be required
to use a cumulative effect approach to recognize transition amounts for any
existing retirement obligation liabilities, asset retirement costs and
accumulated depreciation. Newpark has not determined the transition amounts.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of our financial condition, results of
operations, liquidity and capital resources should be read together with our
"Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements" and "Notes to Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements" as well as our annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2000.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our operating results depend primarily on the level of oil and gas
drilling activity in the markets we serve. These levels in turn depend, to a
great extent, on oil and gas commodities pricing, inventory levels and product
demand. Key average rig count data for the last several quarters is listed in
the following table:
1Q00 2Q00 3Q00 4Q00 1Q01 2Q01
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----
U.S Rig Count 770 845 982 1,075 1,137 1,239

Gulf Coast market to total 29.0% 28.4% 27.5% 25.7% 26.5% 25.9%
Canadian Rig Count 480 212 314 375 515 252
- -----------
Source: Baker Hughes Incorporated
Our primary Gulf Coast market, which accounted for approximately 69% of
revenues for the first six months of 2001, includes: (1) South Louisiana Land;
(2) Texas Railroad Commission Districts 2 and 3; (3) Louisiana and Texas Inland
Waters; and (4) Offshore Gulf of Mexico. According to Baker Hughes Incorporated,
as of the week ended August 3, 2001, the U.S. rig count was 1,266, with 318
rigs, or 25.1%, within our primary Gulf Coast market.
The Canadian market accounted for approximately 17% of revenues for the
first six months of 2001. Much of the terrain throughout the oil and
gas-producing region of Canada presents soil stability and access problems
similar to those encountered in the marsh areas of the U.S. Gulf Coast region.
Much of the drilling activity in Canada has historically been conducted when
winter temperatures freeze the soil and stabilize it, allowing safe access.
Quarterly fluctuations in the Canadian rig count generally reflect the seasonal
nature of drilling activity related to these access issues. As of the week ended
August 3, 2001, the Canadian rig count was 269.
Natural gas production accounts for the majority of activity in the
markets that we serve. Gas storage levels and demand for natural gas have a
significant impact on gas pricing, which in turn affects drilling activity, as
gas suppliers need to maintain adequate storage for peak demand levels and
insure adequate supplies for anticipated future demand.
During 2000, gas storage levels reached their lowest point in over three
years, and with increasing demand for natural gas, commodity prices spiked
dramatically, especially during the second half of 2000. The low storage levels
and high commodity prices for natural gas resulted in a surge in natural gas
drilling. During this same period, rising
12
13
commodity prices have resulted in a moderation of demand for natural gas as some
commercial users have switched to less costly alternate fuel sources when
possible. This moderating demand has resulted in increased levels of gas storage
and has contributed to the recent decline in commodity prices.
Current long-term industry forecasts reflect a stable to growing demand
for natural gas. In addition, current productive gas reserves are being depleted
at a rate faster than current replacement through drilling activities. Because
many shallow fields in the Gulf Coast market have been exploited, based on
improved economics, producers are increasing the depth of drilling to reach the
larger gas reserves. As such, we expect gas-drilling activity to be increasingly
associated with deeper, more costly wells. We view this trend as favorable with
respect to demand for product offerings in all of our segments.
Summarized financial information concerning our reportable segments is
shown in the following table (dollars in thousands):

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2000
Revenues
E&P Waste Disposal: The $2.4 million, or 18%, increase in waste disposal
revenue is primarily attributable to an increase in waste volumes received as a
result of increases in drilling activity and changes in the mix of waste streams
received for processing. During the second quarter of 2001, we received
1,144,000 barrels of E&P waste, compared to 1,062,000 barrels in the comparable
quarter of 2000, an 8% increase. Revenue per barrel increased from an average of
$11.47 for the second quarter of 2000 to an average of $12.19 for the second
quarter of 2001, a 6% increase.
For the second quarter of 2001, NORM revenues were $1.2 million, an
increase of 49% from the prior year amount of $797,000. Industrial waste
revenues for the second quarter of 2001 were $483,000, an 88% increase from the
prior year amount of $257,000.
During the second quarter of 2001, the level of barge mounted drilling
rigs active in the inland waters market averaged 23, versus an average of 17
during the comparable period in 2000. A drilling rig in inland waters typically
generates five to six times the waste volume of drilling rigs in other, less
tightly regulated markets. Through July 2001, the number of rigs in this market
has averaged 22. New offshore regulations imposing limitations on the discharge
of synthetic-based fluids, which are expected to be issued late in 2001, could
have a positive impact on our volume of waste received from the offshore market
in 2002.
Fluids Sales and Engineering: The $23.5 million, or 77%, increase in
drilling fluids revenue is attributable to the increase in drilling activity and
market share gains. During the second quarter of 2001, we serviced an average of
193 rigs, compared to 129 rigs in the second quarter of 2000, an increase of
49%. The average annualized revenue per rig was approximately $1,116,000 in the
second quarter of 2001, compared to $940,000 for the second quarter of 2000.
A leading contributor to our recent success in this segment is our
DeepDrill(TM) family of associated fluid products, which are targeted at deeper,
more difficult drilling operations. Because these products are environmentally
friendly, the new restrictions limiting offshore discharges of synthetic-based
fluids and cuttings may have a further
14
15
positive effect on this segment when implemented in a few months. In addition,
our Performance Services approach, which combines product and service offerings
and reduces overall costs to our customers, has contributed to increases in
market share for this segment.
Mat and Integrated Services: The $22.2 million, or 139%, increase in mat
and integrated services revenue is due to increased drilling activity along the
U.S. onshore Gulf Coast, which favorably impacted pricing and volume for our mat
systems and increased composite mat sales. During the second quarter of 2001, we
sold approximately 6,300 composite mats, generating $10.1 million in revenues.
There were no composite mat sales in the comparable period of the prior year.
Rental pricing for mats in the second quarter of 2001 improved to an average of
$1.69 per square foot on 3.5 million square feet of mats installed, compared
with $0.71 per square foot on 4.6 million square feet of mats installed for the
second quarter of 2000. The trend towards deeper, more complex drilling in the
onshore Gulf Coast market is evidenced by the increase in re-rental revenues
(i.e. revenues which extend beyond the initial 60-day contract period), the most
profitable revenues for this segment. Re-rental revenue increased to $3.8
million during the second quarter of 2001 from $1.4 million for the comparable
period of 2000, a 171% increase.
Operating Income
E&P Waste Disposal: The $158,000 decrease in waste disposal operating
income in spite of an increase in revenues is primarily due to increases in
certain operating costs which have not been fully offset by price increases.
These operating cost increases are primarily associated with the recent
expansion of our facilities at the Port of Fourchon in preparation for
anticipated increases in waste volumes resulting from new offshore discharge
regulations for synthetic-based fluids. Also, this segment has experienced
increases in certain operating costs, including barge rental costs, repairs and
maintenance and trucking costs. In addition, the accommodation for some customer
requests to segregate their waste streams at collection facilities has resulted
in duplication of costs for transportation and handling.
We have developed a plan to mitigate the recent cost increases, and we
expect to implement this plan over the next several quarters. This plan includes
reducing transportation costs through improved efficiency in barge utilization
and renegotiation of trucking contracts. Some costs are expected to decline as a
result of recent declines in fuel costs. In addition, we are working with our
customers to eliminate requests for segregation of waste, which increases
transportation and handling costs.
We have exercised our option to extend our right to dispose of specified
volumes of E&P waste at an outside party's disposal facilities, for one year
effective July 1, 2001. As part of this extension, we have doubled the amount of
waste volume that we can dispose of at these facilities and extended the outside
party's agreement not to compete with us in the E&P disposal business until June
30, 2002. In consideration of the extension of the agreement, including
extension of the non-competition agreement, our costs of disposal under this
contract will increase by approximately $2 per barrel beginning July 1, 2001.
This increase in third party disposal costs is expected to be partially offset
by reductions in other incremental disposal costs and increases in revenues
resulting from the anticipated increase in volumes of E&P waste received from
the new synthetic-based fluid regulations that we expect to be implemented.
15
16
Fluids Sales and Engineering: The $4.9 million increase in fluids sales
and engineering operating income is due primarily to the increase in revenue of
$23.5 million and represents an incremental margin of 21%. Operating margins for
this segment improved from 7% for the second quarter of 2000 to 13% for the
second quarter of 2001. The operating margin of this segment is affected by the
mix of products sold. There is a significant difference in the gross margins
recognized on commodity products and those recognized for specialty products. We
expect to recognize the benefits of our proprietary products such as
DeepDrill(TM) as these products gain wider customer acceptance. In addition, we
expect to see margin improvement as we continue to penetrate the offshore Gulf
of Mexico market, as sales in this market typically earn higher margins.
Mat and Integrated Services: Mat and integrated services operating income
increased $7.9 million on a $22.2 million increase in revenues, representing an
incremental margin of 36%. The high incremental margin is primarily attributable
to improved pricing as noted above. In addition, this incremental margin
reflects the increase in composite mat sales, which typically generate a gross
margin of approximately 45%.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2001 were
$1.2 million, or 1.1% of revenues, compared to $696,000, or 1.2% of revenues, in
2000.
Interest Income/Expense
Net interest expense was $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2001, a
decrease of $546,000, or 9%, as compared to $4.5 million for the second quarter
of 2000. The decrease in net interest cost is primarily due to a decrease of
$23.1 million in average outstanding borrowings and a decrease in the average
effective interest rate from 9.63% in 2000 to 9.37% in 2001. In addition,
interest capitalization decreased from $188,000 in the second quarter of 2000 to
$127,000 in the second quarter of 2001. The decrease in average outstanding
borrowings under our bank credit facility was due to the application of proceeds
received in late December 2000 from a $30 million preferred stock offering.
Provision for Income Taxes
For the second quarter of 2001 we recorded an income tax provision of $5.7
million, reflecting an income tax rate of 36%. For the second quarter of 2000 we
recorded an income tax provision of $1.2 million, reflecting an income tax rate
of 40%. The higher effective rate in 2000 was due to non-deductible items such
as goodwill in relation to the expected level of pretax income for 2000.
Preferred Stock Dividends and Accretion of Discount
As required by EITF 98-5 "Accounting for Convertible Securities with
Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios",
during the quarter ended June 30, 2000, we recorded a one-time adjustment of
$3.5 million ($.05 per share) to our equity accounts to reflect the value
assigned to the conversion feature of the Series B Preferred Stock at the date
of issuance. This adjustment did not have any effect on our operating results or
total equity. The affect of this adjustment is presented as a dividend
16
17
in the accompanying financial statements; however, we issued no additional
shares or cash.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000
Revenues
E&P Waste Disposal: The $4.6 million, or 18%, increase in waste disposal
revenue is attributable to both an increase in the volume of waste received
resulting from increased drilling activity and changes in the mix of waste
streams received for processing. During the first six months of 2001, we
received 2,221,000 barrels of E&P waste, compared to 2,003,000 barrels in the
comparable quarter of 2000, an 11% increase. Revenue per barrel increased from
an average of $11.50 for the first six months of 2000 to an average of $11.95
for the first six months of 2001, a 4% increase.
For the first six months of 2001, NORM revenues were $2.1 million, an
increase of 41% from the prior year amount of $1.5 million. Industrial waste
revenues for the first six months of 2001 were $928,000, a 41% increase from the
prior year amount of $656,000.
Fluids Sales and Engineering: The $44.5 million, or 75%, increase in
drilling fluids revenue is attributable to the increase in drilling activity and
market share gains. During the first six months of 2001, we serviced an average
of 195 rigs, compared to 132 rigs in the first six months of 2000. The
annualized average revenue per rig was $1,072,000 in the first six months of
2001, compared to $907,000 for the first six months of 2000. The increase in the
average revenue per rig reflects an increase in the number of large offshore
rigs serviced in 2001 as compared to 2000.
Mat and Integrated Services: The $41.1 million, or 130%, increase in mat
and integrated services revenue is due to increased drilling activity along the
U.S. onshore Gulf Coast, which favorably impacted pricing and volume for our mat
systems, and increased composite mat sales. During the first six months of 2001,
we sold approximately 12,100 composite mats, generating $19.5 million in
revenues. There were no composite mat sales in the comparable period of the
prior year. Rental pricing for mats in the first six months of 2001 improved to
an average of $1.52 per square foot on 8.4 million square feet of mats
installed, compared with $0.74 per square foot on 8.7 million square feet of
mats installed for the comparable period of 2000. The trend towards deeper, more
complex drilling in the onshore Gulf Coast market is evidenced by the increase
in re-rental revenues, the most profitable revenues for this segment. Re-rental
revenue increased to $7.5 million during the first six months of 2001 from $2.2
million for the comparable period of 2000, a 239% increase.
Operating Income
E&P Waste Disposal: Operating income for the waste disposal segment
increased $385,000, or 5%, on an 18% increase in revenues. The low incremental
margin is primarily due to increases in certain operating costs which have not
been fully offset by price increases, as described above.
Fluids Sales and Engineering: The $9.2 million increase in fluids sales
and engineering operating income is due primarily to the increase in revenue of
$44.5 million
17
18
and represents an incremental margin of 21%. Operating margins for this segment
improved from 7% for the first six months of 2000 to 13% for the first six
months of 2001. As noted above, operating margins of this segment have been
favorably impacted by increases in sales of our higher-margin specialty products
such as DeepDrill(TM) and our increased penetration into the offshore Gulf of
Mexico market.
Mat and Integrated Services: Mat and integrated services operating income
increased $14.5 million on a $41.1 million increase in revenues, representing an
incremental margin of 35%. The high incremental margin is primarily attributable
to improved pricing and composite mat sales noted above.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses of $2.3 million for 2001 represented
1.1% of revenues. General and administrative expenses of $1.7 million for 2000
represented 1.4% of revenues.
Interest Income/Expense
Net interest expense was $8.0 million for the first six months of 2001, a
decrease of $935,000, or 11%, as compared to $8.9 million for the first six
months of 2000. The decrease in net interest cost is primarily due to a decrease
of $21.9 million in average outstanding borrowings and a decrease in the average
effective interest rate from 9.56% in 2001 to 9.47% in 2001. In addition,
interest capitalization decreased from $520,000 in the first six months of 2000
to $262,000 in the first six months of 2001. The decrease in average outstanding
borrowings under our bank credit facility was due to the application of proceeds
received in late December 2000 from a $30 million preferred stock offering.
Provision for Income Taxes
For the first six months of 2001 we recorded an income tax provision of
$10.2 million, reflecting an income tax rate of 36%. For the first six months of
2000 we recorded an income tax provision of $1.7 million, reflecting an income
tax rate of 40%. The higher effective rate in 2000 was due to non-deductible
items such as goodwill in relation to the expected level of pretax income for
2000.

The proceeds from the $30 million preferred stock offering received at the
end of 2000 were used to pay down our credit facility in January 2001. During
the six months ended June 30, 2001, our working capital needs were primarily met
from operations and from borrowings under our credit facility. Operations
provided $6.4 million in the first six months of 2001, which helped to provide
for $13.0 million of cash used in investing activities. A net of $20.8 million
was used in financing activities, principally related to the reduction in the
balance of the bank credit facility after funding of investing activities not
provided for from operations.
As of June 30, 2001, Newpark maintained a $100.0 million bank credit
facility, including up to $25.0 million in standby letters of credit, in the
form of a revolving line of credit commitment, which expires January 31, 2003.
At June 30, 2001, $14.2 million in letters of credit were issued and outstanding
under the credit facility and $59.9 million was outstanding under the revolving
facility, leaving $25.9 million of availability. The facility bears interest at
either a specified prime rate (6.75% at June 30, 2001) or the LIBOR rate (3.82%
at June 30, 2001), in each case plus a spread determined quarterly based on the
ratio of Newpark's funded debt to cash flow. The weighted average interest rates
on the outstanding balance under the credit facility for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 and 2000 were 9.34% and 9.56%, respectively. Recent reductions in
the prime rate and continued improvement in Newpark's funded debt to cash flow
ratio should reduce the average interest rate on the credit facility in the
third quarter of 2001.

20
During the six months ended June 30, 2001, we obtained an additional $7
million of operating lease funding, which was applied towards the lease of
wooden mats in order to meet customer demand for mat locations in the Gulf
Coast. The lease of wooden mats is expected to be temporary and is a result of
the recent surge in composite mat sales. For the remainder of 2001, we
anticipate total capital expenditures of approximately $13 million, concentrated
in our fluids sales and engineering and E&P waste disposal segments, related to
expansion of offshore facilities to accommodate anticipated increases in demand
for our products and services.
Except as described in the preceding paragraphs, we are not aware of any
material expenditures, significant balloon payments or other payments on long
term obligations or any other demands or commitments, including off-balance
sheet items to be incurred within the next 12 months. Inflation has not
materially impacted our revenues or income.
