Rpc Inc's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers
RPC operates in highly competitive areas of the oilfield services industry. We sell our equipment and services in highly competitive markets, and the revenues and earnings generated are affected by changes in prices for our services, fluctuations in the level of customer activity in major markets, general economic conditions and governmental regulation. RPC competes with many large and small oilfield industry competitors, including the largest integrated oilfield services companies. More recently, however, an improving industry environment and the positive outlook on the industry from the financial markets have facilitated the formation of new companies and allowed existing companies to expand their operations. RPC believes that these expanded or newly formed companies will increase competitive pressures during the near term, as they seek to provide services to our existing customers at lower prices, and hire experienced personnel from more established companies such as RPC.
The oil and gas services industry includes dominant global competitors including, among others, Halliburton Energy Services Group, a division of Halliburton Company, Baker Hughes, a GE Company, and Schlumberger Ltd. The industry also includes a number of other publicly traded peers whose operations are more similar to RPC, including Basic Energy Services, C&J Energy Services, Keane Group, Inc., Liberty Oilfield Services, Mammoth Energy Services, Inc., NCS Multistage Holdings, Inc., Nine Energy Service, Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc., ProPetro Holding Corporation and Superior Energy Services, as well as numerous smaller, locally owned competitors.
