BUSINESSGeneral Description of BusinessKey Energy Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is the largest onshore, rig-based well servicing contractor based on the number of rigs owned.References to “Key,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” in this report refer to Key Energy Services, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries and its controlledsubsidiaries. We were organized in April 1977 in Maryland and commenced operations in July 1978 under the name National Environmental Group, Inc. InDecember 1992, we became Key Energy Group, Inc. and we changed our name to Key Energy Services, Inc. in December 1998. In connection with ourreorganization described below, we reincorporated as a Delaware corporation on December 15, 2016.We provide a full range of well services to major oil companies and independent oil and natural gas production companies. Our services include rig-based and coiled tubing-based well maintenance and workover services, well completion and recompletion services, fluid management services, fishing andrental services, and other ancillary oilfield services. Additionally, certain rigs are capable of specialty drilling applications. We operate in most major oil andnatural gas producing regions of the continental United States. An important component of the Company’s growth strategy is to make acquisitions that willstrengthen its core services or presence in selected markets, and the Company also makes strategic divestitures from time to time. To that end, we completedthe sale of our Canadian subsidiary and Russian subsidiary in the second and third quarters of 2017, respectively. The Company expects that the industry inwhich it operates will continue to experience consolidation, and as part of its strategy the Company actively explores opportunities arising out of thisconsolidation, which could include mergers, consolidations or acquisitions or further dispositions or other transactions, including by engaging in discussionswith other industry participants concerning these opportunities. There can be no assurance that any such activities will be consummated.Emergence from Voluntary ReorganizationOn October 24, 2016, Key and certain of our domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of the United StatesBankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) pursuant to a prepackaged plan ofreorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on December 6, 2016, and the Company emerged from the bankruptcyproceedings on December 15, 2016 (the “Effective Date”). In this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we may refer to the Company prior to the Effective Date asthe “Predecessor Company,” and on and after the Effective Date as the “Successor Company.”On the Effective Date, the Company:•Reincorporated the Successor Company in the state of Delaware and adopted an amended and restated certificate of incorporation andbylaws;•Appointed new members to the Successor Company’s board of directors to replace directors of the Predecessor Company;•Issued to the Predecessor Company’s former stockholders, in exchange for the cancellation and discharge of the Predecessor Company’scommon stock:•815,887 shares of the Successor Company’s common stock;•919,004 warrants to expire on December 15, 2020 (the “4-Year Warrants”), and 919,004 warrants to expire on December 15, 2021(the “5-Year Warrants”), each exercisable for one share of the Successor Company’s common stock;•Issued to former holders of the Predecessor Company’s 6.75% senior notes, in exchange for the cancellation and discharge of such notes,7,500,000 shares of the Successor Company’s common stock;•Issued 11,769,014 shares of the Successor Company’s common stock to certain participants in rights offerings conducted pursuant to thePlan;•Issued to Soter Capital LLC (“Soter”) the sole share of the Successor Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, which confers certain rights toelect directors (but has no economic rights);•Entered into a new $80 million senior secured asset based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”), which was increased to $100million on February 3, 2017, and a $250 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) upon termination of thePredecessor Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility and term loan facility;•Entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with certain stockholders of the Successor Company;•Adopted a new management incentive plan (the “2016 Incentive Plan”) for officers, directors and employees of the Successor Company andits subsidiaries; and•Entered into a corporate advisory services agreement (the “CASA”) between the Successor Company and Platinum Equity Advisors, LLC(“Platinum”) pursuant to which Platinum will provide certain business advisory services to the Company.4Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsThe foregoing is a summary of the substantive provisions of the Plan and related transactions and is not intended to be a complete description of, ora substitute for a full and complete reading of, the Plan and the other documents referred to above.Service OfferingsOur reportable business segments are U.S. Rig Services, Fluid Management Services, Coiled Tubing Services, Fishing and Rental Services andInternational. We also have a “Functional Support” segment associated with overhead and other costs in support of our reportable segments. Our U.S. RigServices, Fluid Management Services, Coiled Tubing Services and Fishing and Rental Services operate geographically within the United States. TheInternational reportable segment includes our former operations in Mexico, Canada, Colombia, Ecuador, Russia, Bahrain and Oman. During the second halfof 2015, we ceased operations in Colombia, Ecuador and the Middle East. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we completed the sale of our business inMexico. We completed the sale of our Canadian subsidiary and Russian subsidiary in the second and third quarter of 2017, respectively. We evaluate theperformance of our segments based on gross margin measures. All inter-segment sales pricing is based on current market conditions. See “Note 24. SegmentInformation” in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for additional financial information about our reportable business segments and thevarious geographical areas where we operate.U.S. Rig ServicesOur U.S. Rig Services include the completion of newly drilled wells, workover and recompletion of existing oil and natural gas wells, wellmaintenance, and the plugging and abandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives. We also provide specialty drilling services to oil and natural gasproducers with certain of our larger rigs that are capable of providing conventional and horizontal drilling services. Our rigs encompass various sizes andcapabilities, allowing us to service all types of oil and gas wells. Many of our rigs are outfitted with our proprietary KeyView® technology, which capturesand reports well site operating data and provides safety control systems. We believe that this technology allows our customers and our crews to better monitorwell site operations, improves efficiency and safety, and adds value to the services that we offer.The completion and recompletion services provided by our rigs prepare wells for production, whether newly drilled or recently extended through aworkover operation. The completion process may involve selectively perforating the well casing to access production zones, stimulating and testing thesezones, and installing tubular and downhole equipment. We typically provide a well service rig and may also provide other equipment to assist in thecompletion process. Completion services vary by well and our work may take a few days to several weeks to perform, depending on the nature of thecompletion.The workover services that we provide are designed to enhance the production of existing wells and generally are more complex and timeconsuming than normal maintenance services. Workover services can include deepening or extending wellbores into new formations by drilling horizontal orlateral wellbores, sealing off depleted production zones and accessing previously bypassed production zones, converting former production wells intoinjection wells for enhanced recovery operations and conducting major subsurface repairs due to equipment failures. Workover services may last from a fewdays to several weeks, depending on the complexity of the workover.Maintenance services provided with our rig fleet are generally required throughout the life cycle of an oil or natural gas well. Examples of thesemaintenance services include routine mechanical repairs to the pumps, tubing and other equipment, removing debris and formation material from wellbores,and pulling rods and other downhole equipment from wellbores to identify and resolve production problems. Maintenance services are generally lesscomplicated than completion and workover related services and require less time to perform.Our rig fleet is also used in the process of permanently shutting-in oil or natural gas wells that are at the end of their productive lives. Theseplugging and abandonment services generally require auxiliary equipment in addition to a well servicing rig. The demand for plugging and abandonmentservices is not significantly impacted by the demand for oil and natural gas because well operators are required by state regulations to plug wells that are nolonger productive.We believe that the largest competitors for our U.S. Rig Services include C & J Energy Services, Inc., Basic Energy Services, Inc., Superior EnergyServices, Inc., Forbes Energy Services Ltd., Pioneer Energy Services Corp and Nine Energy Services. Numerous smaller companies also compete in our rig-based markets in the United States.Fluid Management ServicesWe provide transportation and well-site storage services for various fluids utilized in connection with drilling, completions, workover andmaintenance activities. We also provide disposal services for fluids produced subsequent to well completion. These fluids are removed from the well site andtransported for disposal in saltwater disposal (“SWD”) wells owned by us or a third party. Demand and pricing for these services generally correspond todemand for our well service rigs.We believe that the largest competitors for our domestic fluid management services include Select Energy Services, Basic Energy Services, Inc.,Superior Energy Services, Inc., C & J Energy Services, Inc., Nuverra Environmental Solutions, Forbes5Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsEnergy Services Ltd., and Stallion Oilfield Services Ltd. Numerous smaller companies also compete in the fluid management services market in the UnitedStates.Coiled Tubing ServicesCoiled Tubing Services involve the use of a continuous metal pipe spooled onto a large reel which is then deployed into oil and natural gas wells toperform various applications, such as wellbore clean-outs, nitrogen jet lifts, through-tubing fishing, and formation stimulations utilizing acid and chemicaltreatments. Coiled tubing, particularly larger diameter coil units, is also used for a number of horizontal well applications such as milling temporary isolationplugs that separate frac zones and various other pre- and post-hydraulic fracturing well preparation services.Our primary competitors in the Coiled Tubing Services market include Schlumberger Ltd., Baker Hughes Incorporated, Halliburton Company,Superior Energy Services, Inc., Nine Energy Services and C & J Energy Services, Inc. Numerous smaller companies also compete in our coiled tubing servicesmarkets in the United States. Demand for these services generally corresponds to demand for well completion services.Fishing and Rental ServicesWe offer a full line of fishing services and rental equipment designed for use in providing onshore drilling and workover services. Fishing servicesinvolve recovering lost or stuck equipment in the wellbore utilizing a broad array of “fishing tools.” Our rental tool inventory consists of drill pipe, tubulars,handling tools (including our patented Hydra-Walk® pipe-handling units and services), pressure-control equipment, pumps, power swivels, reversing unitsand foam air units. Our rental inventory also included frac stack equipment used to support hydraulic fracturing operations and the associated flowback offrac fluids, proppants, oil and natural gas. We also had provided well testing services. Our frac stack equipment well testing services were sold in the secondquarter of 2017.Demand for our Fishing and Rental Services is also closely related to capital spending by oil and natural gas producers.Our primary competitors for our Fishing and Rental Services include Baker Oil Tools (owned by Baker Hughes Incorporated), WeatherfordInternational Ltd., Basic Energy Services, Inc., Smith Services (owned by Schlumberger), Superior Energy Services, Inc., Quail Tools (owned by ParkerDrilling Company) and Knight Oil Tools. Numerous smaller companies also compete in our fishing and rental services markets in the United States.International SegmentOur International segment includes our former operations in Mexico, Canada, Colombia, Ecuador, Russia, Bahrain and Oman. During the secondhalf of 2015, we ceased operations in Colombia, Ecuador and the Middle East. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we completed the sale of our business inMexico, and we completed the sale of our Canadian subsidiary and Russian subsidiary in the second and third quarters of 2017, respectively. Our services inthese international markets consisted of rig-based services such as the maintenance, workover, and recompletion of existing oil wells, completion of newly-drilled wells, and plugging and abandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives. We also had a technology development and control systems businessbased in Canada, which was focused on the development of hardware and software related to oilfield service equipment controls, data acquisition and digitalinformation flow.Functional Support SegmentOur Functional Support segment includes unallocated overhead costs associated with sales, safety and administrative support for each of ourreporting segments.Equipment OverviewWe categorize our rigs and equipment as active, warm stacked or cold stacked. We consider an active rig or piece of equipment to be a unit that isworking, deployed, available for work or idle. A warm stacked rig or piece of equipment is a unit that is down for repair or needs repair. A cold stacked rig orpiece of equipment is a unit that would require such significant investment to redeploy that we may salvage for parts, sell the unit or scrap the unit. Thedefinitions of active, warm stacked or cold stacked are used for the majority of our equipment.6Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsRigsAs mentioned above, our fleet is diverse and allows us to work on all types of wells, ranging from very shallow wells to long horizontal laterals.Higher derrick lifting capacity rigs will be utilized to service the deeper wells and longer laterals as they require a higher pull weight and taller derrick. Thelower derrick lifting capacity rigs are typically used on shallower, less complex wells. In most cases, these rigs can be reassigned to other regions shouldmarket conditions warrant the transfer of equipment. The following table summarizes our rigs based on derrick height measured in feet as of December 31,2017: Derrick Height (Feet) < 102' ≥ 102' TotalActive118 172 290Warm stacked163 78 241Cold stacked240 108 348Total521 358 879Coiled TubingCoiled tubing uses a spooled continuous metal pipe that is injected downhole in oil and gas wells in order to convey tools, log, stimulate, clean-outand perform other intervention functions. Typically, larger diameter coiled tubing is able to service longer lateral horizontal wells.

These fluids areremoved from the well site and transported for disposal in SWD wells. The table below summarizes our SWD facilities, and brine and freshwater stations bystate as of December 31, 2017: Owned Leased(1) TotalLocation Arkansas1 — 1Louisiana3 — 3New Mexico1 9 10Texas25 27 52Total30 36 66(1)Includes SWD facilities as “leased” if we own the wellbore for the SWD but lease the land. In other cases, we lease both the wellbore and the land. Leaseterms vary among different sites, but with respect to some of the SWD facilities for which we lease the land and own the wellbore, the land owner has anoption under the land lease to retain the wellbore at the termination of the lease.Other Business DataRaw MaterialsWe purchase a wide variety of raw materials, parts and components that are made by other manufacturers and suppliers for our use. We are notdependent on any single source of supply for those parts, supplies or materials.CustomersOur customers include major oil companies, independent oil and natural gas production companies. During the year ended December 31, 2017, theperiod from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, Chevron Texaco Exploration and Production accounted forapproximately 12%, 14% and 15% of our consolidated revenue, respectively. During the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016, OXY USAInc. accounted for approximately 13% of our consolidated revenue. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue during theyear ended December 31, 2017, periods ended from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016, December 16, 2016 through December 31, 2016 or in theyear ended December 31, 2016.Receivables outstanding for OXY USA Inc. were approximately 11% of our total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2016. No other customersaccounted for more than 10% of our total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.Competition and Other External FactorsThe markets in which we operate are highly competitive. Competition is influenced by such factors as product and service quality and availability,responsiveness, experience, technology, equipment quality, reputation for safety and price. We believe that an important competitive factor in establishingand maintaining long-term customer relationships is having an experienced, skilled and well-trained work force. We devote substantial resources towardemployee safety and training programs. In addition, we believe that our proprietary KeyView® system provides important safety enhancements. We believemany of our larger customers place increased emphasis on the safety, performance and quality of the crews, equipment and services provided by theircontractors. Although we believe customers consider all of these factors, price is often the primary factor in determining which service provider is awarded thework. However, in numerous instances, we secure and maintain work for large customers for which efficiency, safety, technology, size of fleet and availabilityof other services are of equal importance to price.The demand for our services and price we receive fluctuates, primarily in relation to the price (or anticipated price) of oil and natural gas, which, inturn, is driven for the most part by the supply of, and demand for, oil and natural gas. Generally, as supply of those commodities decreases and demandincreases, service and maintenance requirements increase as oil and natural gas producers attempt to maximize the productivity of their wells in a higherpriced environment. However, in a lower oil and natural gas price environment, demand for service and maintenance generally decreases as oil and naturalgas producers decrease their activity. In particular, the demand for new or existing field drilling and completion work is driven by available investmentcapital for such work. Because these types of services can be easily “started” and “stopped,” and oil and natural gas producers generally tend to be less risktolerant when commodity prices are low or volatile, we may experience a more rapid decline in demand for well maintenance services compared with demandfor other types of oilfield services. Furthermore, in a low commodity8Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsprice environment, fewer well service rigs are needed for completions, as these activities are generally associated with drilling activity.The level of our revenues, earnings and cash flows are substantially dependent upon, and affected by, the level of U.S. and international oil andnatural gas exploration, development and production activity, as well as the equipment capacity in any particular region.SeasonalityOur operations are impacted by seasonal factors. Historically, our business has been negatively impacted during the winter months due to inclementweather, fewer daylight hours and holidays. During the summer months, our operations may be impacted by tropical or other inclement weather systems.During periods of heavy snow, ice or rain, we may not be able to operate or move our equipment between locations, thereby reducing our ability to provideservices and generate revenues. In addition, the majority of our equipment works only during daylight hours. In the winter months when days become shorter,this reduces the amount of time that our assets can work and therefore has a negative impact on total hours worked. Lastly, during the fourth quarter, wehistorically experience a significant slowdown during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons and demand sometimes slows during this period asour customers exhaust their annual spending budgets.Patents, Trade Secrets, Trademarks and CopyrightsWe own numerous patents, trademarks and proprietary technology that we believe provide us with a competitive advantage in the various markets inwhich we operate or intend to operate. We have devoted significant resources to developing technological improvements in our well service business andhave sought patent protection both inside and outside the United States for products and methods that appear to have commercial significance. All the issuedpatents have varying remaining durations and begin expiring between 2018 and 2035. The most notable of our technologies include numerous patentssurrounding our KeyView® system.We own several trademarks that are important to our business. In general, depending upon the jurisdiction, trademarks are valid as long as they are inuse, or their registrations are properly maintained and they have not been found to become generic. Registrations of trademarks can generally be renewedindefinitely as long as the trademarks are in use. While our patents and trademarks, in the aggregate, are of considerable importance to maintaining ourcompetitive position, no single patent or trademark is considered to be of a critical or essential nature to our business.We also rely on a combination of trade secret laws, copyright and contractual provisions to establish and protect proprietary rights in our productsand services. We typically enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, strategic partners and suppliers and limit access to the distribution ofour proprietary information.EmployeesAs of December 31, 2017, we employed approximately 3,000 persons. Our employees are not represented by a labor union and are not covered bycollective bargaining agreements. As noted below in “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” we have historically experienced a high employee turnover rate. We have notexperienced any significant work stoppages associated with labor disputes or grievances and consider our relations with our employees to be generallysatisfactory.Governmental RegulationsOur operations are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations pertaining to health, safety and the environment. We cannotpredict the level of enforcement of existing laws or regulations or how such laws and regulations may be interpreted by enforcement agencies or court rulingsin the future. We also cannot predict whether additional laws and regulations affecting our business will be adopted, or the effect such changes might have onus, our financial condition or our business. The following is a summary of the more significant existing environmental, health and safety laws and regulationsto which our operations are subject and for which a lack of compliance may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position orcash flows. We believe that we are in material compliance with all such laws.Environmental RegulationsOur operations routinely involve the storage, handling, transport and disposal of bulk waste materials, some of which contain oil, contaminants andother regulated substances. Various environmental laws and regulations require prevention, and where necessary, cleanup of spills and leaks of suchmaterials, and some of our operations must obtain permits that limit the discharge of materials. Failure to comply with such environmental requirements orpermits may result in fines and penalties, remediation orders and revocation of permits.9Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsHazardous Substances and WasteThe Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as amended, referred to as “CERCLA” or the “Superfund” law, andcomparable state laws, impose liability without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct of certain defined persons, including current and priorowners or operators of a site where a release of hazardous substances occurred and entities that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardoussubstances found at the site. Under CERCLA, these “responsible persons” may be jointly and severally liable for the costs of cleaning up the hazardoussubstances, for damages to natural resources and for the costs of certain health studies.In the course of our operations, we occasionally generate materials that are considered “hazardous substances” and, as a result, may incur CERCLAliability for cleanup costs. Also, claims may be filed for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the release of hazardous substances or otherpollutants. We also generate solid wastes that are subject to the requirements of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, or “RCRA,” andcomparable state statutes.Although we use operating and disposal practices that are standard in the industry, hydrocarbons or other wastes may have been released atproperties owned or leased by us now or in the past, or at other locations where these hydrocarbons and wastes were taken for treatment or disposal. UnderCERCLA, RCRA and analogous state laws, we could be required to clean up contaminated property (including contaminated groundwater), or to performremedial activities to prevent future contamination.Air EmissionsThe Clean Air Act, as amended, or “CAA,” and similar state laws and regulations restrict the emission of air pollutants and also impose variousmonitoring and reporting requirements. These laws and regulations may require us to obtain approvals or permits for construction, modification or operationof certain projects or facilities and may require use of emission controls.Global Warming and Climate ChangeSome scientific studies suggest that emissions of greenhouse gases (including carbon dioxide and methane) may contribute to warming of Earth’satmosphere. While we do not believe our operations raise climate change issues different from those generally raised by commercial use of fossil fuels,legislation or regulatory programs that restrict greenhouse gas emissions in areas where we conduct business could increase our costs in order to comply withany new laws.Water DischargesWe operate facilities that are subject to requirements of the Clean Water Act, as amended, or “CWA,” and analogous state laws that imposerestrictions and controls on the discharge of pollutants into navigable waters. Spill prevention, control and counter-measure requirements under the CWArequire implementation of measures to help prevent the contamination of navigable waters in the event of a hydrocarbon spill. Other requirements for theprevention of spills are established under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, as amended, or “OPA,” which applies to owners and operators of vessels, includingbarges, offshore platforms and certain onshore facilities. Under OPA, regulated parties are strictly and jointly and severally liable for oil spills and mustestablish and maintain evidence of financial responsibility sufficient to cover liabilities related to an oil spill for which such parties could be statutorilyresponsible.Occupational Safety and Health ActWe are subject to the requirements of the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act, as amended, or “OSHA,” and comparable state laws thatregulate the protection of employee health and safety. OSHA’s hazard communication standard requires that information about hazardous materials used orproduced in our operations be maintained and provided to employees and state and local government authorities.Saltwater Disposal WellsWe operate SWD wells that are subject to the CWA, Safe Drinking Water Act, and state and local laws and regulations, including those establishedby the Underground Injection Control Program of the Environmental Protection Agency, or “EPA,” which establishes the minimum program requirements.Most of our SWD wells are located in Texas. We also operate SWD wells in Arkansas, Louisiana and New Mexico. Regulations in these states require us toobtain an Underground Injection Control permit to operate each of our SWD wells. The applicable regulatory agency may suspend or modify one or more ofour permits if our well operations are likely to result in pollution of freshwater, substantial violation of permit conditions or applicable rules, or if the wellleaks into the environment.10Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsAccess to Company ReportsOur Web site address is www.keyenergy.com, and we make available free of charge through our Web site our Annual Reports on Form 10-K,Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports, as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials areelectronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

RISK FACTORSIn addition to the other information in this report, the following factors should be considered in evaluating us and our business.Risks Related to Our BusinessThe depressed conditions in our industry have materially and adversely affected our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition during2017 and, unless conditions in our industry improve, this trend could continue during 2018 and potentially beyond.Oil and natural gas prices began a rapid and substantial decline in the fourth quarter of 2014. Depressed commodity price conditions persisted andworsened during 2015 and remained depressed and volatile during 2016 and 2017. As a result, demand for our products and services declined substantiallyfrom 2014, and the prices we are able to charge our customers for our products and services also declined substantially. These trends materially and adverselyaffected our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition during 2017 and, unless conditions in our industry improve, this trend will continueduring 2018 and potentially beyond.We had substantial net losses during 2015, 2016 and 2017, and, during 2017, our cash flow used by operations was $51.4 million. If industryconditions do not improve, we may continue to suffer net losses and negative cash flows from operations.Although our financial position has improved as a result of the reorganization and we are continuing to pursue cost reduction initiatives, there canbe no assurance that we will be able to successfully consummate these initiatives or that they will be successful to improve our financial condition andliquidity.Our business is cyclical and depends on conditions in the oil and natural gas industry, especially oil and natural gas prices and capital and operatingexpenditures by oil and natural gas companies. A continuation of the depressed state of our industry, tight credit markets and disruptions in the U.S. andglobal economies and financial systems may adversely impact our business.Prices for oil and natural gas historically have been volatile as a result of changes in the supply of, and demand for, oil and natural gas and otherfactors. The significant decline in oil and natural gas prices that began in 2014 and continued throughout 2015, 2016 and 2017 caused many of ourcustomers to significantly reduce drilling, completion and other production activities and related spending on our products and services in those years. Inaddition, the reduction in demand from our customers has resulted in an oversupply of many of the services and products we provide, and such oversupplysubstantially reduced the prices we can charge our customers for our services.We depend on our customers’ willingness to make capital expenditures to explore for, develop and produce oil and natural gas. Therefore, weaknessin oil and natural gas prices (or the perception by our customers that oil and natural gas prices will remain reduced or will continue to decrease in the future)has and may continue to result in a reduction in the utilization of our equipment and in lower rates for our services. In addition to adversely affecting us, thecontinuation and worsening of these conditions have resulted and may continue to result in a material adverse impact on certain of our customers’ liquidityand financial position resulting in further spending reductions, delays in payment of, or non-payment of, amounts owing to us and similar impacts. Theseconditions have had and may continue to have an adverse impact on our financial conditions, results of operations and cash flows, and it is difficult topredict how long the current uncertain commodity price environment will continue.Many factors affect the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas and, therefore, influence product prices, including:•prices, and expectations about future prices, of oil and natural gas;•domestic and worldwide economic conditions;•domestic and foreign supply of and demand for oil and natural gas;•the price and quantity of imports of foreign oil and natural gas including the ability of OPEC to set and maintain production levels for oil;•the cost of exploring for, developing, producing and delivering oil and natural gas;•the level of excess production capacity, available pipeline, storage and other transportation capacity;•lead times associated with acquiring equipment and products and availability of qualified personnel;11Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements•the expected rates of decline in production from existing and prospective wells;•the discovery rates of new oil and gas reserves;•federal, state and local regulation of exploration and drilling activities and equipment, material or supplies that we furnish;•public pressure on, and legislative and regulatory interest within, federal, state and local governments to stop, significantly limit or regulatehydraulic fracturing activities;•weather conditions, including hurricanes, that can affect oil and natural gas operations over a wide area and severe winter weather that caninterfere with our operations;•political instability in oil and natural gas producing countries;•advances in exploration, development and production technologies or in technologies affecting energy consumption;•the price and availability of alternative fuel and energy sources;•uncertainty in capital and commodities markets; and•changes in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other major global currencies.Spending by exploration and production companies has also been, and may continue to be, impacted by conditions in the capital markets.Limitations on the availability of capital, and higher costs of capital, for financing expenditures have contributed to exploration and production companiesmaking materially significant reductions to capital or operating budgets and such limitations may continue if oil and natural gas prices remain at currentlevels or decrease further. Such cuts in spending have curtailed, and may continue to curtail, drilling programs as well as discretionary spending on wellservices, which has resulted, and may continue to result, in a reduction in the demand for our services, the rates we can charge and the utilization of our assets.Moreover, reduced discovery rates of new oil and natural gas reserves, and a decrease in the development rate of reserves in our market areas whether due toincreased governmental regulation, limitations on exploration and drilling activity or other factors, have had, and may continue to have, a material adverseimpact on our business, even in a stronger oil and natural gas price environment.A substantial decline in oil and natural gas prices generally leads to decreased spending by our customers. While higher oil and natural gas pricesgenerally lead to increased spending by our customers, sustained high energy prices can be an impediment to economic growth, and can therefore negativelyimpact spending by our customers. Our customers also take into account the volatility of energy prices and other risk factors by requiring higher returns forindividual projects if there is higher perceived risk. Any of these factors could affect the demand for oil and natural gas and could have a material adverseeffect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.The amount of our debt and the covenants in the agreements governing our debt could negatively impact our financial condition, results of operationsand business prospects.Although we reduced the amount of our debt by approximately $697 million as a result of the reorganization in 2016, as of December 31, 2017, wehad $245.6 million of total debt. Our level of indebtedness, and the covenants contained in the agreements governing our debt, could have importantconsequences for our operations, including:•making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations under the agreements governing our indebtedness and increasing the risk that we maydefault on our debt obligations;•requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to required payments on indebtedness, thereby reducing theavailability of cash flow for working capital, capital expenditures and other general business activities;•limiting our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporatepurposes and other activities;•limiting management's flexibility in operating our business;•limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate;•diminishing our ability to successfully withstand a downturn in our business or the economy generally;•placing us at a competitive disadvantage against less leveraged competitors; and•making us vulnerable to increases in interest rates, because our debt has variable interest rates.As more fully described in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity andCapital Resources”, each of our ABL Facility and our Term Loan Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants, including financial ratios and tests,with which we must comply. These covenants include, among others, covenants that restrict our ability to take certain actions without the permission of theholders of our indebtedness, including the incurrence of debt, the granting of liens, the making of investments, the payment of dividends and the sale ofassets, and the financial ratios and tests include, among others, a requirement that we comply with a minimum liquidity covenant, a minimum asset coverageratio and, during certain periods, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. In addition, under our Term Loan Facility and ABL Facility, we are required to takecertain steps to perfect the security interest in the collateral within specified periods following the closing of those facilities.12Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsOur ability to satisfy required financial covenants, ratios and tests in our debt agreements can be affected by events beyond our control, includingcommodity prices, demand for our services, the valuation of our assets, as well as prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions, and we can offer noassurance that we will be able to remain in compliance with such covenants or that the holders of our indebtedness will not seek to assert that we are not incompliance with our covenants. A breach of any of these covenants, ratios or tests could result in a default under our indebtedness. If we default, lendersunder our ABL Facility will no longer be obligated to extend credit to us, and they and the administrative agent under our Term Loan Facility could declareall amounts of outstanding debt, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. The results of such actions would have a significantnegative impact on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows, and absent strategic alternatives such as refinancing or restructuring ourindebtedness or capital structure, we would not have sufficient liquidity to repay all of our outstanding indebtedness. If such a result were to occur, we maybe forced into bankruptcy or forced to again seek bankruptcy protection to restructure our business and capital structure and may have to liquidate our assetsand may receive less than the value at which those assets are carried on our financial statements.We may incur more debt and long-term lease obligations in the future.The agreements governing our long-term debt restrict, but do not prohibit, us from incurring additional indebtedness and other obligations in thefuture. As of December 31, 2017, we had $245.6 million of total debt.An increase in our level of indebtedness could exacerbate the risks described in the immediately preceding risk factor and the occurrence of any ofsuch events could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and business prospects.We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service and other obligations.Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness and to fund planned capital expenditures and other costs of our operations depends on our abilityto generate cash in the future. This, to a large extent, is subject to conditions in the oil and natural gas industry, including commodity prices, demand for ourservices and the prices we are able to charge for our services, general economic and financial conditions, competition in the markets in which we operate, theimpact of legislative and regulatory actions on how we conduct our business and other factors, all of which are beyond our control. During fiscal year 2017,we had negative cash flows from operations, and this trend could continue if conditions in our industry continue or worsen.Our variable rate indebtedness subjects us to interest rate risk, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase significantly.Borrowings under our ABL Facility and our Term Loan Facility bear interest at variable rates, exposing us to interest rate risk. If interest ratesincrease, our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the amount borrowed would remain the same, and our netincome and cash available for servicing our indebtedness would decrease.We may be unable to implement price increases or maintain existing prices on our core services.We periodically seek to increase the prices of our services to offset rising costs and to generate higher returns for our stockholders. Currently, theprices we are able to charge for our services and the demand for such services are severely depressed. Even when industry conditions are favorable, we operatein a very competitive industry and as a result, we are not always successful in raising, or maintaining our existing prices. Additionally, during periods ofincreased market demand, a significant amount of new service capacity, including new well service rigs, fluid hauling trucks, coiled tubing units and newfishing and rental equipment, may enter the market, which also puts pressure on the pricing of our services and limits our ability to increase or maintainprices. Furthermore, during periods of declining pricing for our services, we may not be able to reduce our costs accordingly, which could further adverselyaffect our profitability.Even when we are able to increase our prices, we may not be able to do so at a rate that is sufficient to offset such rising costs. In periods of highdemand for oilfield services, a tighter labor market may result in higher labor costs. During such periods, our labor costs could increase at a greater rate thanour ability to raise prices for our services. Also, we may not be able to successfully increase prices without adversely affecting our activity levels. Theinability to maintain our prices or to increase our prices as costs increase could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results ofoperations.We participate in a capital-intensive industry. We may not be able to finance future growth of our operations or future acquisitions.Our activities require substantial capital expenditures. If our cash flow from operating activities and borrowings under our ABL Facility are notsufficient to fund our capital expenditure budget, we would be required to reduce these expenditures or fund these expenditures through debt or equity oralternative financing plans, such as refinancing or restructuring our debt or selling assets.Our ability to raise debt or equity capital or to refinance or restructure our debt will depend on the condition of the capital markets and our financialcondition at such time, among other things. Any refinancing of our debt could be at higher interest rates13Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsand may require us to comply with more onerous covenants, which could further restrict our business operations. The terms of existing or future debtinstruments may restrict us from adopting some of these alternatives. Any of the foregoing consequences could materially and adversely affect our business,financial condition, results of operations and prospects.Increased labor costs or the unavailability of skilled workers could hurt our operations.Companies in our industry, including us, are dependent upon the available labor pool of skilled employees. We compete with other oilfield servicesbusinesses and other employers to attract and retain qualified personnel with the technical skills and experience required to provide our customers with thehighest quality service. We are also subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act, which governs such matters as minimum wage, overtime and other workingconditions, which can increase our labor costs or subject us to liabilities to our employees. A shortage in the labor pool of skilled workers or other generalinflationary pressures or changes in applicable laws and regulations could make it more difficult for us to attract and retain personnel and could require us toenhance our wage and benefits packages. Labor costs may increase in the future or we may not be able to reduce wages when demand and pricing falls, andsuch changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our future financial results could be adversely impacted by asset impairments or other charges.We have recorded goodwill impairment charges and asset impairment charges in the past. We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets such as ourproperty and equipment for impairment. We perform the assessment of potential impairment for our property and equipment whenever facts andcircumstances indicate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable due to various external or internal factors. If conditions in our industrydo not improve or worsen, we could record additional impairment charges in future periods, which could have a material adverse effect on our financialposition and results of operations.Our business involves certain operating risks, which are primarily self-insured, and our insurance may not be adequate to cover all insured losses orliabilities we might incur in our operations.Our operations are subject to many hazards and risks, including the following:•accidents resulting in serious bodily injury and the loss of life or property;•liabilities from accidents or damage by our fleet of trucks, rigs and other equipment;•pollution and other damage to the environment;•reservoir damage;•blow-outs, the uncontrolled flow of natural gas, oil or other well fluids into the atmosphere or an underground formation; and•fires and explosions.If any of these hazards occur, they could result in suspension of operations, damage to or destruction of our equipment and the property of others, orinjury or death to our or a third party's personnel.We self-insure against a significant portion of these liabilities. For losses in excess of our self-insurance limits, we maintain insurance fromunaffiliated commercial carriers. However, our insurance may not be adequate to cover all losses or liabilities that we might incur in our operations.Furthermore, our insurance may not adequately protect us against liability from all of the hazards of our business. As a result of market conditions, premiumsand deductibles for certain of our insurance policies may substantially increase. In some instances, certain insurance could become unavailable or availableonly for reduced amounts of coverage. We also are subject to the risk that we may be unable to maintain or obtain insurance of the type and amount we desireat a reasonable cost. If we were to incur a significant liability for which we were uninsured or for which we were not fully insured, it could have a materialadverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.We operate in a highly competitive industry, with intense price competition, which may intensify as our competitors expand their operations.The market for oilfield services in which we operate is highly competitive and includes numerous small companies capable of competing effectivelyin our markets on a local basis, as well as several large companies that possess substantially greater financial resources than we do. Contracts are traditionallyawarded on the basis of competitive bids or direct negotiations with customers.The principal competitive factors in our markets are product and service quality and availability, responsiveness, experience, technology,equipment quality, reputation for safety and price. The competitive environment has intensified as recent mergers among exploration and productioncompanies reduced the number of available customers. The fact that drilling rigs and other vehicles and oilfield services equipment are mobile and can bemoved from one market to another in response to market conditions heightens the competition in the industry. We may be competing for work againstcompetitors that may be better able to withstand industry downturns and may be better suited to compete on the basis of price, retain skilled personnel andacquire new equipment and technologies, all of which could affect our revenues and profitability.14Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsHistorically, we have experienced a high employee turnover rate. Any difficulty we experience replacing or adding workers could adversely affect ourbusiness.We believe that the high turnover rate in our industry is attributable to the nature of oilfield services work, which is physically demanding andperformed outdoors. As a result, workers may choose to pursue employment in fields that offer a more desirable work environment at wage rates that arecompetitive with ours. The potential inability or lack of desire by workers to commute to our facilities and job sites, as well as the competition for workersfrom competitors or other industries, are factors that could negatively affect our ability to attract and retain workers. We may not be able to recruit, train andretain an adequate number of workers to replace departing workers. The inability to maintain an adequate workforce could have a material adverse effect onour business, financial condition and results of operations.We may not be successful in implementing and maintaining technology development and enhancements. New technology may cause us to become lesscompetitive.The oilfield services industry is subject to the introduction of new drilling and completion techniques and services using new technologies, some ofwhich may be subject to patent protection. As competitors and others use or develop new technologies in the future, we may be placed at a competitivedisadvantage. Further, we may face competitive pressure to implement or acquire certain new technologies at a substantial cost. Some of our competitors havegreater financial, technical and personnel resources that may allow them to implement new technologies before we can. If we are unable to develop andimplement new technologies or products on a timely basis and at competitive cost, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flowscould be adversely affected.A component of our business strategy is to incorporate the KeyView® system, our proprietary technology, into our well service rigs. The inability tosuccessfully develop, integrate and protect this technology could:•limit our ability to improve our market position;•increase our operating costs; and•limit our ability to recoup the investments made in this technological initiative.The loss of or a substantial reduction in activity by one or more of our largest customers could materially and adversely affect our business, financialcondition and results of operations.One customer accounted for more than 10% of our total consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2017 and our ten largest customersrepresented approximately 50% of our consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2017. The loss of or a substantial reduction in activity by oneor more of these customers could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.Potential adoption of future state or federal laws or regulations surrounding the hydraulic fracturing process could make it more difficult to completeoil or natural gas wells and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Many of our customers utilize hydraulic fracturing services during the life of a well. Hydraulic fracturing is the process of creating or expandingcracks, or fractures, in underground formations where water, sand and other additives are pumped under high pressure into the formation. Although we are nota provider of hydraulic fracturing services, many of our services complement the hydraulic fracturing process.Legislation has been introduced in Congress to provide for broader federal regulation of hydraulic fracturing operations and the reporting andpublic disclosure of chemicals used in the fracturing process. Additionally, the EPA has asserted federal regulatory authority over certain hydraulic fracturingactivities involving diesel fuel under the Safe Drinking Water Act and in May 2012 issued draft guidance for fracturing operations that involved diesel fuels.If additional levels of regulation or permitting requirements were imposed through the adoption of new laws and regulations, our customers' business andoperations could be subject to delays and increased operating and compliance costs, which could negatively impact the number of active wells in themarketplaces we serve. New regulations addressing hydraulic fracturing and chemical disclosure have been approved or are under consideration by a numberof states and some municipalities have sought to restrict or ban hydraulic fracturing within their jurisdictions. For example, in June 2015, the New YorkDepartment of Environmental Conservation issued a findings statement concluding its seven-year study of high-volume hydraulic fracturing, therebyofficially prohibiting the practice in New York. Additionally, in California, legislation regarding well stimulation, including hydraulic fracturing, has beenadopted. The law mandates technical standards for well construction, hydraulic fracturing water management, groundwater monitoring, seismicity monitoringduring hydraulic fracturing operations and public disclosure of hydraulic fracturing fluid constituents. These and other new federal, state or municipal lawsregulating the hydraulic fracturing process could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.15Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsPermit conditions, legislation or regulatory initiatives could restrict our ability to dispose of fluids produced subsequent to well completion, whichcould have a material adverse effect on our business.As part of our fluid management services, we provide disposal services for fluids produced subsequent to well completion. These fluids are removedfrom the well site and transported for disposal in SWD wells. We operate SWD wells that are subject to the CWA, the Safe Drinking Water Act, and state andlocal laws and regulations, including those established by the Underground Injection Control Program of the EPA, which establishes the minimum programrequirements. Most of our SWD wells are located in Texas. We also operate SWD wells in Arkansas, Louisiana and New Mexico. Regulations in these statesrequire us to obtain an Underground Injection Control permit to operate each of our SWD wells. The applicable regulatory agency may suspend or modifyone or more of our permits if our well operations are likely to result in pollution of freshwater or substantial violation of permit conditions or applicable rules,or if the well leaks into the environment.In addition, there exists a growing concern that the injection of produced fluids into belowground disposal wells may trigger seismic activity incertain areas. In response to these concerns, regulators in some states are pursuing initiatives designed to impose additional requirements in connection withthe permitting of SWD wells or otherwise to assess any relationship between seismicity and oil and gas operations. For example, in 2014, the Texas RailroadCommission, or TRC, published a rule governing permitting or re-permitting of disposal wells in Texas that would require, among other things, thesubmission of information on seismic events occurring within a specified radius of the disposal well location, as well as logs, geologic cross sections andstructure maps relating to the disposal area in question. If a permittee or a prospective permittee fails to demonstrate that the saltwater or other fluids areconfined to the disposal zone or if scientific data indicates such a disposal well is likely to be or determined to be contributing to seismic activity, then theTRC may deny, modify, suspend or terminate the permit application or existing operating permit for that well.The imposition of permit conditions or the adoption and implementation of any new laws, regulations, or directives that restrict our ability to dispose ofproduced fluids, including by restricting disposal well locations, changing the depths of disposal wells, reducing the volume of wastewater disposed in wells,or requiring us to shut down disposal wells or otherwise, could lead to operational delays and increased operating costs, which could materially andadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.We may incur significant costs and liabilities as a result of environmental, health and safety laws and regulations that govern our operations.Our operations are subject to U.S. federal, state and local laws and regulations that impose limitations on the discharge of pollutants into theenvironment and establish standards for the handling, storage and disposal of waste materials, including toxic and hazardous wastes. To comply with theselaws and regulations, we must obtain and maintain numerous permits, approvals and certificates from various governmental authorities. While the cost ofsuch compliance has not been significant in the past, new laws, regulations or enforcement policies could become more stringent and significantly increaseour compliance costs or limit our future business opportunities, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results ofoperations.Our operations pose risks of environmental liability, including leakage from our operations to surface or subsurface soils, surface water orgroundwater. Some environmental laws and regulations may impose strict liability, joint and several liability, or both. Therefore, in some situations, we couldbe exposed to liability as a result of our conduct that was lawful at the time it occurred or the conduct of, or conditions caused by, third parties without regardto whether we caused or contributed to the conditions. Actions arising under these laws and regulations could result in the shutdown of our operations, finesand penalties, expenditures for remediation or other corrective measures, and claims for liability for property damage, exposure to hazardous materials,exposure to hazardous waste or personal injuries. Sanctions for noncompliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations also may include theassessment of administrative, civil or criminal penalties, revocation of permits, temporary or permanent cessation of operations in a particular location andissuance of corrective action orders. Such claims or sanctions and related costs could cause us to incur substantial costs or losses and could have a materialadverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. Additionally, an increase in regulatory requirements on oil and naturalgas exploration and completion activities could significantly delay or interrupt our operations.The scope of regulation of our services may increase in light of the April 2010 Macondo accident and resulting oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico,including possible increases in liabilities or funding requirements imposed by governmental agencies. In 2012, the Bureau of Safety and EnvironmentalEnforcement, or “BSEE,” expanded its regulatory oversight beyond oil and gas operators to include service and equipment contractors. In addition, U.S.federal law imposes on certain entities deemed to be “responsible parties” a variety of regulations related to the prevention of oil spills, releases of hazardoussubstances, and liability for removal costs and natural resource, real property and certain economic damages arising from such incidents. Some of these lawsmay impose strict and/or joint and several liability for certain costs and damages without regard to the conduct of the parties. As a provider of services andrental equipment for offshore drilling and workover services, we may be deemed a “responsible party” under federal law. The implementation of such lawsand the adoption and implementation of future regulatory initiatives, or the specific responsibilities that may arise from such initiatives may subject us toincreased costs and liabilities, which could interrupt our operations or have an adverse effect on our revenue or results of operations.16Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsSevere weather could have a material adverse effect on our business.Our business could be materially and adversely affected by severe weather. Our customers' oil and natural gas operations located in Louisiana andparts of Texas may be adversely affected by hurricanes and tropical storms, resulting in reduced demand for our services. Furthermore, our customers'operations may be adversely affected by seasonal weather conditions. Adverse weather can also directly impede our own operations. Repercussions of severeweather conditions may include:•curtailment of services;•weather-related damage to facilities and equipment, resulting in suspension of operations;•inability to deliver equipment, personnel and products to job sites in accordance with contract schedules; and•loss of productivity.These constraints could delay our operations and materially increase our operating and capital costs. Unusually warm winters may also adverselyaffect the demand for our services by decreasing the demand for natural gas.Acquisitions and divestitures - we may not be successful in identifying, making and integrating acquisitions or limiting ongoing costs associated withthe operations we divest.An important component of our growth strategy is to make acquisitions that will strengthen our core services or presence in selected markets. Thesuccess of this strategy will depend, among other things, on our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates, to negotiate acceptable financial and otherterms, to timely and successfully integrate acquired business or assets into our existing businesses and to retain the key personnel and the customer base ofacquired businesses. Any future acquisitions could present a number of risks, including but not limited to:•incorrect assumptions regarding the future results of acquired operations or assets or expected cost reductions or other synergies expected to berealized as a result of acquiring operations or assets;•failure to successfully integrate the operations or management of any acquired operations or assets in a timely manner;•failure to retain or attract key employees;•diversion of management's attention from existing operations or other priorities;•the inability to implement promptly an effective control environment;•potential impairment charges if purchase assumptions are not achieved or market conditions decline;•the risks inherent in entering markets or lines of business with which the company has limited or no prior experience; and•inability to secure sufficient financing, sufficient financing on economically attractive terms that may be required for any such acquisition orinvestment.Our business strategy anticipates, and is based upon our ability to successfully complete and integrate, acquisitions of other businesses or assets in atimely and cost effective manner. Our failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.We also make strategic divestitures from time to time. In the case of divestitures, we may agree to indemnify acquiring parties for certain liabilitiesarising from our former businesses. These divestitures may also result in continued financial involvement in the divested businesses, including throughguarantees, service level agreements, or other financial arrangements, following the transaction. Lower performance by those divested businesses could affectour future financial results if there is contingent consideration associated.Compliance with climate change legislation or initiatives could negatively impact our business.Various state governments and regional organizations comprising state governments are considering enacting new legislation and promulgatingnew regulations governing or restricting the emission of greenhouse gases, or “GHG,” from stationary sources, which may include our equipment andoperations. At the federal level, the EPA has already issued regulations that require us to establish and report an inventory of GHG emissions. The EPA alsohas established a GHG permitting requirement for large stationary sources and may lower the threshold of the permitting program, which could include ourequipment and operations. Legislative and regulatory proposals for restricting GHG emissions or otherwise addressing climate change could require us toincur additional operating costs and could adversely affect demand for natural gas and oil. The potential increase in our operating costs could include new orincreased costs to obtain permits, operate and maintain our equipment and facilities, install new emission controls on our equipment and facilities, acquireallowances to authorize our greenhouse gas emissions, pay taxes related to our GHG emissions and administer and manage a GHG emissions program.In addition, in December, 2014, California adopted GHG emission rules for heavy duty vehicles equivalent to EPA rules and an optional loweremission standard for nitrogen oxides (“NOx”) in California. California has stated its intention to lower NOx standards for California-certified engines andhas also requested that the EPA lower its standards. In June 2016, several regional air quality management districts in California and other states, as well asthe environmental agencies for several states, petitioned the EPA to adopt lower NOx emission standards for on-road heavy duty trucks and engines. Weexpect that heavy duty vehicle and engine fuel economy and GHG emissions rules will be under consideration in other jurisdictions in the future. We17Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsmay incur significant capital expenditures and administrative costs as we update our transportation fleet to comply with emissions laws and regulations.Conservation measures and technological advances could reduce demand for oil and natural gas.Fuel conservation measures, alternative fuel requirements, increasing consumer demand for alternatives to oil and natural gas, technologicaladvances in fuel economy and energy generation could reduce demand for oil and natural gas. Moreover, incentives to conserve energy or use alternativeenergy sources could reduce demand for oil and natural gas. Management cannot predict the impact of the changing demand for oil and natural gas servicesand products, and any major changes may have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.Risks Related to Our Emergence from BankruptcyInformation contained in our historical financial statements will not be comparable to the information contained in our financial statements after theapplication of fresh start accounting.This Annual Report on Form 10-K reflects the consummation of the Plan and the adoption of fresh start accounting. As a result, our financialstatements from and after the Effective Date will not be comparable to our financial statements for prior periods. This will make it difficult for stockholders toassess our performance in relation to prior periods. Please see “Note 3. Fresh Start Accounting” in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data”for additional information.We have a limited operating history since our emergence from bankruptcy and consequently our business plan is difficult to evaluate and our longterm viability cannot be assured.Our prospects for financial success are difficult to assess because we have a limited operating history since emergence from bankruptcy. TheCompany together with certain subsidiaries filed for Chapter 11 relief on October 24, 2016, and we emerged from bankruptcy on December 15, 2016. Therecan be no assurance that our business will be successful, that we will be able to achieve or maintain a profitable operation, or that we will not encounterunforeseen difficulties that may deplete our capital resources more rapidly than anticipated. There can be no assurance that we will achieve or sustainprofitability or positive cash flows from our operating activities.Our corporate advisory services agreement may result in financial burden or other adverse effects.On the Effective Date, the Company entered into the CASA with Platinum, an affiliate of Soter. Pursuant to this agreement, Platinum provides arange of business, financial and accounting advice in exchange for an advisory fee of $2.75 million per year (subject to certain adjustments). During the termof the CASA, the Company will be obligated to accrue and pay the advisory fee in accordance with the terms set forth in the CASA. In addition, the business,financial and accounting advice provided by Platinum to the Company under the CASA could increase the influence that Platinum has over our operations.The CASA may not be terminated by the Company until December 31, 2019, but Platinum may terminate the CASA at any time upon 90 days’ priorwritten notice to the Company. The CASA also terminates automatically if Soter owns less than 33% of our common stock. After the termination of theCASA, Key may need to provide its own services to replace those provided under the CASA or procure such services from third parties. Any failure of ordelay in procuring comparable services following a termination of the CASA could result in unexpected costs and business disruption.Risks Related to Our Common StockOur controlling stockholder may deter transactions that could be beneficial to other stockholders.Pursuant to our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and the Plan, beginning on the Effective Date and until the 2019 annual stockholdersmeeting (the “Initial Board Term”), directors appointed by Soter, our largest stockholder, will collectively hold votes that constitute a majority of all votesheld by directors of the Company. As a result, subject to certain approval rights of directors selected by certain other stockholders, the Soter directors willcontrol decisions made by the board. This control could discourage others from initiating any merger, takeover or other transaction that may otherwise bebeneficial to the other holders of shares of our common stock.After the Initial Board Term, for as long as our Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, directors selected by Soter will continue to hold votes thatconstitute a majority of all votes held by all directors. As a result, subject to certain approval rights held by non-Soter directors, the Soter directors willcontinue to control decisions made by the board, including whether to enter into transactions that may otherwise be beneficial to the other holders of sharesof our common stock.The resale of shares of our common stock, including shares issuable upon exercise of our warrants, may adversely affect the market price of ourcommon stock.At the time of our emergence from bankruptcy, certain shares of our common stock issued to certain stockholders were “restricted securities” forpurposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and accordingly, were subject to limitations on resale. The shares held by thesestockholders (other than the Company) are now freely resalable under the Securities Act without limitations.18Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsFurthermore, as of December 16, 2016, there were 919,004 4-Year Warrants and 919,004 5-Year Warrants outstanding. The exercise price of one 4-Year Warrant is $43.52, and the exercise price of one 5-Year Warrant is $54.40, each subject to certain adjustments.The sale of a significant number of shares of our common stock, including shares issuable upon exercise of our warrants, or substantial trading in ourcommon stock or the perception in the market that substantial trading in our common stock will occur, may adversely affect the market price of our commonstock.We cannot assure you that an active trading market for our common stock will develop or be maintained, and the market price of our common stockmay be volatile, which could cause the value of your investment to decline.The common stock of the Successor Company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on December 16, 2016, following ouremergence from bankruptcy. We cannot assure you that an active public market for our common stock will be sustained. In the absence of an active publictrading market, it may be difficult to liquidate your investment in our common stock.The trading price of our common stock on the NYSE may fluctuate substantially. Numerous factors, including many over which we have no control,may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock. These risks include those described or referred to in this “Risk Factors” section aswell as, among other things:•our operating and financial performance and prospects;•our ability to repay our debt;•our access to financial and capital markets to refinance our debt or replace the existing credit facilities;•investor perceptions of us and the industry and markets in which we operate;•future sales of equity or equity-related securities;•changes in earnings estimates or buy/sell recommendations by analysts; and•general financial, domestic, economic and other market conditions.The Company does not expect to pay dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future.We do not anticipate to pay cash dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of our common stock in the foreseeable future, and wecannot assure that such dividends or other distributions will be paid at any time in the future or at all. In addition, restrictive covenants in our debt agreementlimit our ability to pay dividends. As a result, holders of shares of common stock likely will not be able to realize a return on their investment, if any, until theshares are sold.Certain provisions of our corporate documents and Delaware law, as well as change of control provisions in our debt agreements, could delay orprevent a change of control, even if that change would be beneficial to stockholders, or could have a material negative impact on our business.Certain provisions in our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and debt agreements may have the effect of deterring transactions involving a changein control, including transactions in which stockholders might receive a premium for their shares.In addition to the risks of having a controlling stockholder as described in the risk factor “Our controlling stockholder may deter transactions thatcould be beneficial to other stockholders,” our certificate of incorporation provides for the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with suchdesignations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. The authorization of preferred shares empowers ourboard, without further stockholder approval, to issue preferred shares with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adverselyaffect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the common stock. If issued, the preferred stock could also dilute the holders of our common stockand could be used to discourage, delay or prevent a change of control.Furthermore, our debt agreements contain provisions pursuant to which an event of default or mandatory prepayment offer may result if certain“persons” or “groups” become the beneficial owner of more than 50.1% of our common stock. This could deter certain parties from seeking to acquire us, andif any “person” or “group” were to become the beneficial owner of more than 50.1% of our common stock, we may not be able to repay our indebtedness.We are also a Delaware corporation subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). In general, Section 203 of theDGCL prevents an “interested stockholder” (as defined in the DGCL) from engaging in a “business combination” (as defined in the DGCL) with us for threeyears following the date that person becomes an interested stockholder unless one or more of the following occurs:•Before that person became an interested stockholder, our board of directors approved the transaction in which the interested stockholder becamean interested stockholder or approved the business combination;•Upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the interested stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholderowned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the votingstock outstanding stock held by certain directors and employee stock plans; or19Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements•Following the transaction in which that person became an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by our board of directorsand authorized at a meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting stock not ownedby the interested stockholder.The DGCL generally defines “interested stockholder” as any person who, together with affiliates and associates, is the owner of 15% or more of ouroutstanding voting stock or is our affiliate or associate and was the owner of 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock at any time within the three-yearperiod immediately before the date of determination.All of these factors could materially adversely affect the price of our common stock.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNone.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESWe lease office space for our principal executive offices in Houston, Texas. Additionally, we own or lease numerous rig facilities, storage facilities,truck facilities and sales and administrative offices throughout the geographic regions in which we operate. We lease temporary facilities to house employeesin regions where infrastructure is limited. In connection with our Fluid Management Services, we operate a number of owned and leased SWD facilities, andbrine and freshwater stations. Our leased properties are subject to various lease terms and expirations.We believe all properties that we currently occupy are suitable for their intended uses. We believe that our current facilities are sufficient to conductour operations.

Leaseterms vary among different sites, but with respect to some of the SWD facilities for which we lease the land and own the wellbore, the land owner has anoption under the land lease to retain the wellbore at the termination of the lease.ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGSWe are subject to various suits and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the disposition of any of ourordinary course litigation will result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.In November 2015, the Santa Barbara County District Attorney filed a criminal complaint against two former employees and Key, specificallyalleging three counts of violations of California Labor Code section 6425(a) against Key. The complaint sought unspecified penalties against Key related toan October 12, 2013 accident which resulted in the death of one Key employee at a drilling site near Santa Maria, California. An arraignment was held onFebruary 10, 2016, where Key and its former employees pleaded not guilty to all charges.On or about January 10, 2017, Key entered into a settlement with the Santa Barbara County District Attorney. Key agreed to plead no contest to onefelony count (Count 2), a violation of California Labor Code 6425(a). The Santa Barbara County District Attorney also agreed to recommend total restitution,fines, fees, and surcharges not to exceed $450,000. The court dismissed the remaining charges (Counts 1 and 3) against Key. The parties agreed to postponesentencing in the matter until January 31, 2018. The parties agreed that if Key pays all of the total restitution, fines, fees, and surcharges by January 31, 2018,the Santa Barbara County District Attorney will not object to Key withdrawing its plea to a felony count on Count 2 and entering a plea to a misdemeanor.On January 31, 2018, the sentence was entered as a misdemeanor and the matter was concluded.ITEM 4.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSThe following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidatedfinancial statements and related notes thereto in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” The discussion below contains forward-lookingstatements that are based upon our current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances including those identified in“Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to potentiallyinaccurate assumptions and known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements should be read in conjunction with ourdisclosures under “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”OverviewWe provide a full range of well services to major oil companies and independent oil and natural gas production companies to produce, maintain andenhance the flow of oil and natural gas throughout the life of a well. These services include rig-based and coiled tubing-based well maintenance andworkover services, well completion and recompletion services, fluid management services, fishing and rental services and other ancillary oilfield services.Additionally, certain of our rigs are capable of specialty drilling applications. We operate in most major oil and natural gas producing regions of thecontinental United States, and we previously had operations in Canada and Russia, which were sold in the second and third quarters of 2017, respectively.The demand for our services fluctuates, primarily in relation to the price (or anticipated price) of oil and natural gas, which, in turn, is drivenprimarily by the supply of, and demand for, oil and natural gas. Generally, as supply of those commodities decreases and demand increases, service andmaintenance requirements increase as oil and natural gas producers attempt to maximize the productivity of their wells in a higher priced environment.However, in the lower oil and natural gas price environment that has persisted since late 2014, demand for service and maintenance has decreased as oil andnatural gas producers decrease their activity. In particular, the demand for new or existing field drilling and completion work is driven by availableinvestment capital for such work and our customers have significantly curtailed their capital spending beginning in 2015 and continuing into 2017. Becausethese types of services can be easily “started” and “stopped,” and oil and natural gas producers generally tend to be less risk tolerant when commodity pricesare low or volatile, we may experience a more rapid decline in demand for well maintenance services compared with demand for other types of oilfieldservices. Further, in a lower-priced environment, fewer well service rigs are needed for completions, as these activities are generally associated with drillingactivity.Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization and Fresh Start AccountingUpon our emergence from bankruptcy on the Effective Date, the Company adopted fresh start accounting which resulted in the creation of a newentity for financial reporting purposes. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting, as well as the effects of the implementation of the Plan, theConsolidated Financial Statements on or after December 16, 2016 are not comparable with the Consolidated Financial Statements prior to that date. Refer to“Note 3. Fresh Start Accounting” in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for additional information.25Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsReferences to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the reorganized Company subsequentto December 15, 2016. References to “Predecessor” or “Predecessor Company” refer to the financial position and results of operations of the Company priorto December 15, 2016.Business and Growth StrategiesFocus on Production Related ServicesOver the life of an oil and gas well, regular maintenance of well bore and artificial lift systems is required to maintain production and offset naturalproduction declines. In most of these interventions, a well service rig is required to remove and replace items needing repair, or to perform activities thatwould increase the oil and gas production from current levels. In many instances these interventions require additional assets or services to perform. With thedecline in oil prices beginning in 2014, we believe that a number of oil and gas producers in the United States significantly curtailed their recurring wellmaintenance activities. We believe that a recovery in oil prices will result in oil and gas producers making the decision to resume regular well maintenanceactivities. Additionally, we believe that in many instances since the oil price decline began in 2014, oil and gas producers have foregone regularmaintenance activities, and that additional demand for our services will be provided by oil and gas producers seeking to improve their production byrepairing their wells. Key is well positioned to capitalize on these trends through its fleet of active and warm stacked well service rigs and the additionalfishing and rental service offerings it provides and we will continue to invest, either in equipment or through acquisition to grow and take advantage of thisdynamic.Growth in Population of Horizontal Oil and Gas WellsSince the revolution of horizontal well drilling and hydraulic fracturing began in the United States, thousands of new horizontal oil wells have beenadded, many in the period from 2012 to 2014. As the initial production from these wells decline over their first several years of production, and these wellsare placed on artificial lift systems to maintain production, we believe that these wells will require periodic maintenance similar to a conventional oil well. Inmany instances due to the depth and long lateral sections of these wells, a larger well service rig with a higher rated derrick capacity will be needed to do thismaintenance. We intend to invest in this portion of our well service rig fleet, and the needed rental equipment and services, either through organic capitaldeployment or acquisition to capitalize on this trend and the growing population of horizontal wells that have entered or will enter the phase of their lifewhere regular maintenance is required.PERFORMANCE MEASURESThe Baker Hughes U.S. rig count data, which is publicly available on a weekly basis, is often used as a coincident indicator of overall Explorationand Production (“E&P”) company spending and broader oilfield activity. In assessing overall activity in the U.S. onshore oilfield service industry in whichwe operate, we believe that the Baker Hughes U.S. land drilling rig count is the best barometer of E&P companies' capital spending and resulting activitylevels. Historically, our activity levels have been highly correlated to U.S. onshore capital spending by our E&P company customers as a group.YearWTI Cushing CrudeOil(1) NYMEX Henry HubNatural Gas(1) Average Baker HughesU.S. Land Drilling Rigs(2) Average AESC Well ServiceActive Rig Count(3)2013$97.98 $3.73 1,705 2,0642014$93.17 $4.37 1,804 2,0242015$48.66 $2.62 943 1,4812016$43.29 $2.52 486 1,0612017$50.80 $2.99 856 1,187(1)Represents the average of the monthly average prices for each of the years presented.

Generally, as capital by E&Pcompanies increases, demand for our services also rises, resulting in increased rig and trucking services and more hours worked. Conversely, when activitylevels decline due to lower spending by E&P companies, we generally provide fewer rig and trucking services, which results in lower hours worked.

Industryconditions are influenced by numerous factors, such as oil and natural gas prices, the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, domestic and worldwideeconomic conditions, and political instability in oil producing countries and available supply of and demand for the services we provide. Oil and natural gasprices began a rapid and substantial decline in the fourth quarter of 2014. Depressed commodity price conditions persisted and worsened during 2015 andinto 2016. As a result, the Baker Hughes U.S. rig count and the AESC well service rig count, along with demand for our products and services declinedsubstantially, and the prices we are able to charge our customers for our products and services also declined substantially. While we sought to anticipateactivity declines and reshaped our organizational and cost structure to mitigate the negative impact of these declines, we have continued to experiencenegative operating results and cash flows from operations. In 2017, oil prices recovered off the lows of 2016 and spurred an increase in the Baker Hughes U.S.rig count and related well completion activity, however, the same magnitude of activity increase did not occur in our principal Rig Services business, asmeasured by the AESC well service rig count, as oil and gas producers’ production maintenance spending has not recovered to the same extent as new welldrilling and completion spending.During 2017, we saw some continued improvement in demand and pricing for our services, particularly those driven by the completion of oil andnatural gas wells, continued uncertainty around the stability of oil prices dampened the pace of improvement in well services activity particularly as it relatesto our customer spending for the maintenance of existing oil and gas wells. We believe that a stabilization of oil prices at a price attractive to our customerswill be necessary for the demand and associated pricing of our services related to conventional well maintenance work to improve significantly.Additionally, we believe that continued aging of horizontal wells and customers choosing to increase production through accretive regular well maintenancein these horizontal wells will strengthen demand for and increase the price of our services over the next several years. With increased demand for oilfieldservices broadly, however, the demand for qualified employees will also increase, which may impact our ability to meet the needs of our customers or offsetprice increases realized due to inflation in labor costs.27Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsRESULTS OF OPERATIONSConsolidated Results of OperationsThe following tables set forth consolidated results of operations and financial information by operating segment and other selected information forthe periods indicated. The period from December 16 to December 31, 2016 (Successor Company) and the period from January 1 to December 15, 2016(Predecessor Company) are distinct reporting periods as a result of our emergence from bankruptcy on December 15, 2016. References in these results ofoperations to the change and the percentage change combine the Successor Company and Predecessor Company results for the year ended December 31,2016 in order to provide some comparability of such information to the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2015. While this combinedpresentation is not presented according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and no comparable GAAP measure and arepresented, management believes that providing this financial information is the most relevant and useful method for making comparisons to the years endedDecember 31, 2017 and December 31, 2015.

Internationally, we had lowerrevenue as a result of the sale our operations in Mexico, a decrease in activity in Russia and the sale during the third quarter of 2017 of our Russianoperations. See “Segment Operating Results — Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016” below for a more detailed discussion of the change in ourrevenues.Direct operating expensesOur direct operating expenses decreased $47.1 million, or 12.4%, to $332.3 million (76.2% of revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2017,compared to $379.4 million (90.9% of revenues) for the combined year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease is partially related to a $21.0 million gain onthe sale of certain assets and a decrease in employee compensation costs, fuel expense and repair and maintenance expense as we took steps to reduce ourcost structure. See “Segment Operating Results — Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016” below for a more detailed discussion of the change in ourdirect operating expenses.Depreciation and amortization expenseDepreciation and amortization expense decreased $50.3 million, or 37.3%, to 84.5 million (19.4% of revenues) for the year ended December 31,2017, compared to $134.9 million (32.3% of revenues) for the combined year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease is primarily attributable to thereduction of property, plant and equipment due to the implementation of fresh start accounting in the fourth quarter of 2016.28Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsGeneral and administrative expensesGeneral and administrative expenses decreased $54.5 million, or 32.1%, to $115.3 million (26.4% of revenues) for the year ended December 31,2017, compared to $169.8 million (40.7% of revenues) for the combined year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease is primarily due to a $24.0 milliondecrease in professional fees related to our 2016 corporate restructuring and lower employee compensation costs due to reduced staffing levels and areduction in wages partially offset by a $5.2 million increase in legal settlement accruals.Impairment expenseDuring the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded a $0.2 million impairment to reduce the carrying value of the assets and related liabilities ofour Russian business unit, which was sold in the third quarter of 2017, to fair market value. During the combined year ended December 31, 2016, we recordeda $44.6 million impairment to reduce the carrying value of assets held for sale to fair market value related to our business unit in Mexico.Reorganization items, netReorganization items primarily consist of $1.5 million of professional fees incurred in connection with our emergence from voluntary reorganizationfor the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to a $578.7 million gain on debt discharge partially offset by a $299.6 million loss on fresh start accountingrevaluations, a $19.2 million write-off of deferred financing costs and debt premiums and discounts, and $15.2 million of professional fees incurred inconnection with our emergence from voluntary reorganization for the combined year ended December 31, 2016.Interest expense, net of amounts capitalizedInterest expense decreased $43.9 million to $31.8 million (7.3% of revenues), for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $75.7 million(18.1% of revenues) for the combined year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease is primarily related to the elimination of the Predecessor Company’ssenior secured notes in connection with our emergence from voluntary reorganization.Other (income) loss, netDuring the year ended December 31, 2017, we recognized other income, net, of $7.2 million, compared to $2.4 million for the combined year endedDecember 31, 2016. Our foreign exchange (gain) loss relates to U.S. dollar-denominated transactions in our foreign locations and fluctuations in exchangerates between local currencies and the U.S. dollar.The table below presents comparative detailed information about combined other loss, net at December 31, 2017 and 2016: Successor Predecessor (a) (b) (c) (a) - (b) - (c) Year EndedDecember 31,2017 Period fromDecember 16, 2016through December31, 2016 Period fromJanuary 1, 2016through December15, 2016 Change % ChangeInterest income$(711) $(20) $(407) $(284) 67 %Foreign exchange (gain) loss(33) 17 1,005 $(1,055) (103)%Other, net(6,443) 35 (3,041) $(3,437) 114 %Total$(7,187) $32 $(2,443) $(4,776) 198 %Income tax (expense) benefitOur income tax benefit was $1.7 million (1.4% effective rate) on pre-tax loss of $122.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared toan income tax benefit of zero (0.00% effective rate) on a pre-tax loss of $10.2 million and a $2.8 million tax expense (2.2% effective rate) on pre-tax loss of$128.9 million for the period from December 16, 2016 through December 31, 2016 and for the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016,respectively. Our effective tax rates for such periods differ from the then-applicable U.S. statutory rate of 35% due to a number of factors, including the mix ofprofit and loss between domestic and international taxing jurisdictions and the impact of permanent items, including goodwill impairment expense andexpenses subject to statutorily imposed limitations such as meals and entertainment expenses, that affect book income but do not affect taxable income anddiscrete tax adjustments, such as valuation allowances against deferred tax assets and tax expense or benefit recognized for uncertain tax positions.29Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsThe U.S. enacted into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“2017 Tax Act”) on December 22, 2017. The 2017 Tax Act is comprehensive tax reformlegislation that, among other things, contains significant changes to corporate taxation, including a permanent reduction of the corporate income tax ratefrom 35% to 21%, imposing a mandatory one-time tax on accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries, a partial limitation on the deductibility of businessinterest expense, a limitation on net operating losses to 80% of taxable income each year, and a shift of the U.S. taxation of multinational corporations from atax on worldwide income to a partial territorial system (along with rules that create a new U.S. minimum tax on earnings of foreign subsidiaries). The ultimateimpact of the 2017 Tax Act may differ from the estimated tax impacts recognized in the fourth quarter due to technical corrections made to the law, futureTreasury Regulations, and other interpretive guidance that may impact the Company’s actions. We continue to examine the impact of this tax reformlegislation, as its overall impact is uncertain.Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 Successor Predecessor (a) (b) (c) (a) + (b) - (c) Period fromDecember 16,2016 throughDecember 31,2016 Period fromJanuary 1, 2016through December15, 2016 Year EndedDecember 31, 2015 Change % ChangeREVENUES$17,830 $399,423 $792,326 $(375,073) (47)%COSTS AND EXPENSES: Direct operating expenses16,603 362,825 714,637 (335,209) (47)%Depreciation and amortization expense3,574 131,296 180,271 (45,401) (25)%General and administrative expenses6,501 163,257 202,631 (32,873) (16)%Impairment expense— 44,646 722,096 (677,450) (94)%Operating loss(8,848) (302,601) (1,027,309) 715,860 (70)%Reorganization items, net— (245,571) — (245,571) (100)%Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized1,364 74,320 73,847 1,837 2 %Other (income) loss, net32 (2,443) 9,394 (11,805) (126)%Loss before income taxes(10,244) (128,907) (1,110,550) 971,399 (87)%Income tax (expense) benefit— (2,829) 192,849 (195,678) (101)%NET LOSS$(10,244) $(131,736) $(917,701) $775,721 (85)%RevenuesOur revenues for the combined year ended December 31, 2016 decreased $375.1 million, or 47.3%, to $417.3 million from $792.3 million for theyear ended December 31, 2015, due to lower spending from our customers as a result of lower oil prices. These market conditions resulted in reducedcustomer activity and a reduction in the price received for our services. Internationally, we had lower revenue as a result of reduced customer activity inRussia and Colombia and the exit of operations in the Middle East and South America. See “Segment Operating Results — Years Ended December 31, 2016and 2015” below for a more detailed discussion of the change in our revenues.Direct operating expensesOur direct operating expenses decreased $335.2 million, or 46.9%, to $379.4 million (90.9% of revenues) for the combined year ended December 31,2016, compared to $714.6 million (90.2% of revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease is primarily related to a decrease in employeecompensation costs, fuel expense and repair and maintenance expense as we sought to reduce our cost structure and as a result of lower activity levels. See“Segment Operating Results — Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2015” below for a more detailed discussion of the change in our direct operatingexpenses.Depreciation and amortization expenseDepreciation and amortization expense decreased $45.4 million, or 25.2%, to $134.9 million (32.3% of revenues) for the combined year endedDecember 31, 2016, compared to $180.3 million (22.8% of revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease is primarily attributable to theimpairment of certain fixed assets in 2015 and decreases in capital expenditures and lower amortization expense due to the impairment of certain intangibleassets.30Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsGeneral and administrative expensesGeneral and administrative expenses decreased $32.9 million, or 16.2%, to $169.8 million (40.7% of revenues) for the combined year endedDecember 31, 2016, compared to $202.6 million (25.6% of revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease is primarily due to lower employeecompensation costs due to reduced staffing levels and reduction in wages and $30.8 million lower expenses related to our investigations pursuant to theForeign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) by the DOJ and the SEC, which concluded in April and August 2016, respectively, partially off-set by $25.8 millionin restructuring fees in 2016.Impairment expenseDuring the combined year ended December 31, 2016, we recorded a $44.6 million impairment to reduce the carrying value of assets held for sale tofair market value related to our business unit in Mexico.

The increase is primarily related to increased borrowings and interest rate under the newTerm Loan Facility in the combined year ended December 31, 2016 and the write-off of the remaining $0.8 million of unamortized deferred financing costsrelated to a previously terminated credit facility in the second quarter of 2015.Other (income) loss, netDuring the combined year ended December 31, 2016, we recognized other income, net, of $2.4 million, compared to other loss, net, of $9.4 millionfor the year ended December 31, 2015.

Thedecrease is primarily due to lower employee compensation costs due to reduced staffing levels and reduction in wages, a $5.0 million FCPA settlementaccrual in 2016 and a decrease of $24.0 million in professional fees related to the 2016 corporate restructuring.33Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsYears Ended December 31, 2016 and 2015The following table shows operating results for each of our reportable segments for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands):For the Successor period from December 16, 2016 through December 31, 2016 U.S. Rig Service FluidManagementServices Coiled TubingServices Fishing andRentalServices International FunctionalSupport TotalRevenues from external customers$8,549 $3,208 $1,392 $3,389 $1,292 $— $17,830Operating expenses10,481 4,346 1,648 3,654 1,225 5,324 26,678Operating loss(1,932) (1,138) (256) (265) 67 (5,324) (8,848)For the Predecessor period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 U.S. Rig Service FluidManagementServices Coiled TubingServices Fishing andRentalServices International FunctionalSupport TotalRevenues from external customers$222,877 $76,008 $30,569 $55,790 $14,179 $— $399,423Operating expenses262,335 113,944 49,891 82,198 73,405 120,251 702,024Operating income (loss)(39,458) (37,936) (19,322) (26,408) (59,226) (120,251) (302,601)For the year ended December 31, 2015 U.S. Rig Service FluidManagementServices Coiled TubingServices Fishing andRentalServices International FunctionalSupport TotalRevenues from external customers$377,131 $153,153 $89,823 $121,883 $50,336 $— $792,326Operating expenses685,070 196,637 244,991 319,295 232,872 140,770 1,819,635Operating income (loss)(307,939) (43,484) (155,168) (197,412) (182,536) (140,770) (1,027,309)U.S. Rig ServicesRevenues for our U.S. Rig Services segment decreased $145.7 million, or 38.6%, to $231.4 million for the combined year ended December 31, 2016,compared to $377.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease for this segment is primarily due to lower spending from our customers as aresult of lower oil prices. These market conditions resulted in reduced customer activity and a reduction in the price received for our services.Operating expenses for our U.S. Rig Services segment were $272.8 million during the combined year ended December 31, 2016, which represented adecrease of $412.3 million, or 60.2%, compared to $685.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. These expenses decreased primarily due to noimpairment expense in 2016 compared to $297.7 million impairment expense in 2015 and as a result of a decrease in employee compensation costs andequipment expense as we sought to reduce our cost structure and as a result of lower activity levels.Fluid Management ServicesRevenues for our Fluid Management Services segment decreased $73.9 million, or 48.3%, to $79.2 million for the combined year endedDecember 31, 2016, compared to $153.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease for this segment is primarily due to lower spendingfrom our customers as a result of lower oil prices.

These market conditions resulted in reduced customer activity and a reduction in the price received for our services.Operating expenses for our Coiled Tubing Services segment were $51.5 million during the combined year ended December 31, 2016, whichrepresented a decrease of $193.5 million, or 79.0%, compared to $245.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. These expenses decreased primarilydue to no impairment expense in 2016 compared to $82.7 million impairment of goodwill and a $51.1 million impairment of fixed assets in 2015 and as aresult of a decrease in employee compensation costs, repair and maintenance expense and fuel costs as we sought to reduce our cost structure and as a resultof lower activity levels.Fishing and Rental ServicesRevenues for our Fishing and Rental Services segment decreased $62.7 million, or 51.4%, to $59.2 million for the combined year endedDecember 31, 2016, compared to $121.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease for this segment is primarily due to lower spendingfrom our customers as a result of lower oil prices. These market conditions resulted in reduced customer activity and a reduction in the price received for ourservices.Operating expenses for our Fishing and Rental Services segment were $85.9 million during the combined year ended December 31, 2016, whichrepresented a decrease of $233.4 million, or 73.1%, compared to $319.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. These expenses decreased primarilydue to no impairment expense in 2016 compared to $173.5 million impairment of goodwill and a $6.0 million impairment of intangible assets in 2015 and asa result of a decrease in employee compensation costs, repair and maintenance expense and fuel costs as we sought to reduce our cost structure and as a resultof lower activity levels.InternationalRevenues for our International segment decreased $34.9 million, or 69.3%, to $15.5 million for the combined year ended December 31, 2016,compared to $50.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.

These expenses decreased primarily due to impairment expense of $44.6 million in2016 compared to $80.8 million impairment of assets held for sale and a $4.4 million impairment of goodwill in 2015 and as a result of a decrease inemployee compensation costs and equipment expense from lower activity and the exit of certain International markets.Functional supportOperating expenses for our Functional Support segment decreased $15.2 million, or 10.8%, to $125.6 million (30.1% of consolidated revenues) for thecombined year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $140.8 million (17.8% of consolidated revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decreaseis primarily due to lower employee compensation costs due to reduced staffing levels and $30.8 million lower expenses related to our FCPA investigationsby the DOJ and the SEC, which concluded in April and August 2016, respectively, partially off-set by $25.8 million in professional fees related to corporaterestructuring in 2016.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesWe require capital to fund our ongoing operations, including maintenance expenditures on our existing fleet and equipment, organic growthinitiatives, investments and acquisitions, our debt service payments and our other obligations. We believe that our internally generated cash flows fromoperations, current reserves of cash and availability under our ABL Facility are sufficient to finance our cash requirements for current and future operations,budgeted capital expenditures, debt service and other obligations for the next twelve months.Oil and natural gas prices began a rapid and substantial decline in the fourth quarter of 2014. Depressed commodity price conditions persisted andworsened during 2015 and remained depressed during 2016 and 2017. As a result, demand for our products and services declined substantially, and the priceswe are able to charge our customers for our products and services have also declined substantially. These trends materially and adversely affected our resultsof operations, cash flows and financial condition during 2017 and, unless conditions in our industry improve, this trend will potentially continue beyond2017.In response to these conditions, we have undertaken several actions detailed below in an effort to preserve and improve our liquidity and financialposition.35Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements•In April 2015, we announced our decision to exit markets in which we participate outside of North America. Our strategy is to sell or relocate theassets of the businesses operating in these markets. To this end, during the second half of 2015, we ceased operations in Colombia, Ecuador and theMiddle East. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we completed the sale of our business in Mexico, and we completed the sale of our Canadiansubsidiary and Russian subsidiary in the second and third quarters of 2017, respectively. Additionally, in 2017 we sold our frac stack and testingbusiness.•On December 15, 2016, the Company emerged from a pre-planned voluntary chapter 11 reorganization resulting in approximately $697 million ofthe Company’s long-term debt being eliminated along with more than $45.6 million of annual interest expense going forward.•On December 15, 2016, we entered into our new $80 million ABL Facility (which was increased to $100 million on February 3, 2017) due June 15,2021, and our new $250 million Term Loan Facility due December 15, 2021. As of December 31, 2017, we had no borrowings outstanding under theABL Facility and $35.6 million of letters of credit outstanding with borrowing capacity of $24.7 million available subject to covenant constraintsunder our ABL Facility.•Beginning in the first quarter of 2015, we began a series of structural cost cutting changes at both corporate and field levels, which include fixedcosts, supply-chain efficiencies and headcount and wage reductions which has continued into 2017.However, we still have substantial indebtedness and other obligations, and we may incur additional expenses that we are unable to predict at thistime.Our ability to fund our operations, pay the principal and interest on our long-term debt and satisfy our other obligations will depend upon ouravailable liquidity and the amount of cash flows we are able to generate from our operations. During 2017, our net cash used in operating activities was $51.4million, and, if industry conditions do not improve, we may have negative cash flows from operations in 2018.As of December 31, 2017, our working capital was $83.0 million compared to $117.8 million as of December 31, 2016. Our working capitaldecreased during 2017 primarily as a result of a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash partially offset by the decrease in other accruedexpenses.As of December 31, 2017, we had $73.1 million of cash, of which approximately $0.7 million was held in the bank accounts of our foreignsubsidiaries. As of December 31, 2017, $0.2 million of the cash held by our foreign subsidiaries was held in U.S. bank accounts and denominated in U.S.dollars. We believe that the cash held by our wholly owned foreign subsidiaries could be repatriated for general corporate use without material withholdings.Cash FlowsCash used in operating activities was $51.4 million, $0.4 million, and $138.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and periods fromDecember 16, 2016 through December 31, 2016 and from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016, respectively. Cash used by operating activities forthese periods was primarily related to net loss adjusted for noncash items and payments of accounts payable and other accrued liabilities partially offset bycash inflows related to the collection of accounts receivable.Cash provided by investing activities was $16.9 million and $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the period from January 1, 2016through December 15, 2016, respectively, cash used in investing activities was $0.3 million for the period from December 16, 2016 through December 31,2016. Investing cash inflows primarily relate to sales of assets during these periods. Investing cash outflows primarily relate to capital expenditures. Capitalexpenditures primarily relate to replacement assets for our existing fleet and equipment.Cash provided by financing activities was $17.2 million and $18.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the period from January 1,2016 through December 15, 2016, respectively, cash used in financing activities was less than $0.1 million for the period from January 1, 2016 throughDecember 15, 2016. Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 primarily relate to the reduction in restricted cash. Cashprovided by financing activities for the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 was primarily related to proceeds from stock offering, whichwas in connection with emerging from bankruptcy, partially offset by repayment of long-term debt and increase in restricted cash.36Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsThe following table summarizes our cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2017, the period from December 16, 2016 through December 31,2016 and the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 (in thousands): Successor Predecessor Year EndedDecember 31,2017 Period fromDecember 16,2016 throughDecember 31,2016 Period fromJanuary 1, 2016throughDecember 15,2016Net cash used by operating activities$(51,367) $(417) $(138,449)Cash paid for capital expenditures(16,079) (375) (8,481)Proceeds from sale of assets32,992 124 15,025Proceeds from notes receivable— — —Repayments of long-term debt(2,500) — (313,424)Proceeds from long-term debt— — 250,000Payment of bond tender premium— — 109,082Restricted cash20,707 (15) (24,692)Payment of deferred financing costs(350) — (2,040)Other financing activities, net(697) — (167)Effect of changes in exchange rates on cash(146) — (20)Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents$(17,440) $(683) $(113,166)Debt ServiceAt December 31, 2017, our annual maturities on our indebtedness, consisting only of our Term Loan Facility at year-end, were as follows (inthousands): Principal Payments2018$2,50020192,50020202,5002021240,000Total$247,500ABL FacilityOn December 15, 2016, the Company and Key Energy Services, LLC, as borrowers (the “ABL Borrowers”), entered into the ABL Facility with thefinancial institutions party thereto from time to time as lenders (the “ABL Lenders”), Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the lenders, and Bankof America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-collateral agents for the lenders.

The amount that may be borrowed under theABL Facility is subject to increase or reduction based on certain segregated cash or reserves provided for by the ABL Facility. In addition, the percentages ofaccounts receivable and unbilled accounts receivable included in the calculation described above is subject to reduction to the extent of certain bad debtwrite-downs and other dilutive items provided in the ABL Facility.Borrowings under the ABL Facility will bear interest, at the ABL Borrowers’ option, at a per annum rate equal to (i) LIBOR for 30, 60, 90, 180, or,with the consent of the ABL Lenders, 360 days, plus an applicable margin that varies from 2.50% to 4.50% depending on the Borrowers’ fixed chargecoverage ratio at such time or (ii) a base rate equal to the sum of (a) the greatest of (x) the prime rate, (y) the federal funds rate, plus 0.50% or (z) 30-dayLIBOR, plus 1.0% plus (b) an applicable margin that varies from 1.50% to 3.50% depending on the Borrowers’ fixed charge coverage ratio at such time. Inaddition, the ABL Facility provides for unused line fees of 1.0% to 1.25% per year, depending on utilization, letter of credit fees and certain other factors.The ABL Facility may in the future be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries (the “ABL Guarantors,” and togetherwith the ABL Borrowers, the “ABL Loan Parties”). To secure their obligations under the ABL Facility,37Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementseach of the ABL Loan Parties has granted or will grant, as applicable, to the Administrative Agent a first-priority security interest for the benefit of the ABLLenders in its present and future accounts receivable, inventory and related assets and proceeds of the foregoing (the “ABL Priority Collateral”). In addition,the obligations of the ABL Loan Parties under the ABL Facility are secured by second-priority liens on the Term Priority Collateral (as described below under“Term Loan Facility”).The revolving loans under the ABL Facility may be voluntarily prepaid, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to breakage orsimilar costs.The ABL Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability of the ABL Loan Parties to takecertain actions including, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, the incurrence of debt, the granting of liens, the making ofinvestments, entering into transactions with affiliates, the payment of dividends and the sale of assets. The ABL Facility also contains a requirement that theABL Borrowers comply, during certain periods, with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00.As of December 31, 2017, we had no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility and $35.6 million of letters of credit outstanding withborrowing capacity of $24.7 million available subject to covenant constraints under our ABL Facility.Term Loan FacilityOn December 15, 2016, the Company entered into the Term Loan Facility among the Company, as borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Companynamed as guarantors therein, the financial institutions party thereto from time to time as Lenders (collectively, the “Term Loan Lenders”) and CortlandCapital Market Services LLC and Cortland Products Corp., as agent for the Term Loan Lenders. The Term Loan Facility had an outstanding principal amountof $250 million as of the Effective Date.The Term Loan Facility will mature on December 15, 2021, although such maturity date may, at the Company’s request, be extended by one or moreof the Term Loan Lenders pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Facility. Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility will bear interest, at the Company’soption, at a per annum rate equal to (i) LIBOR for one, two, three, six, or, with the consent of the Term Loan Lenders, 12 months, plus 10.25% or (ii) a baserate equal to the sum of (a) the greatest of (x) the prime rate, (y) the Federal Funds rate, plus 0.50% and (z) 30-day LIBOR, plus 1.0% plus (b) 9.25%.The Term Loan Facility is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries (the “Term Loan Guarantors,” and together withthe Company, the “Term Loan Parties”). To secure their obligations under the Term Loan Facility, each of the Term Loan Parties has granted or will grant, asapplicable, to the agent a first-priority security interest for the benefit of the Term Loan Lenders in substantially all of each Term Loan Party’s assets otherthan certain excluded assets and the ABL Priority Collateral (the “Term Priority Collateral”). In addition, the obligations of the Term Loan Parties under theTerm Loan Facility are secured by second-priority liens on the ABL Priority Collateral (as described above under “ABL Facility”).The loans under the Term Loan Facility may be prepaid at the Company’s option, subject to the payment of a prepayment premium in certaincircumstances as provided in the Term Loan Facility. If a prepayment is made after the first anniversary of the loan but prior to the second anniversary, suchprepayment must be made at 106% of the principle amount, if a prepayment is made after the second anniversary but prior to the third anniversary, suchprepayment must be made at 103% of the principle amount. After the third anniversary, if a prepayment is made, no prepayment premium is due. TheCompany is required to make principal payments in the amount of $625,000 per quarter commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2017.

Based onmanagement’s current projections, we expect to be in compliance with all the covenants under our ABL Facility and Term Loan Facility for the next twelvemonths. A breach of any of these covenants, ratios or tests could result in a default under our indebtedness. See “- Debt Service” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors”Capital ExpendituresDuring the year ended December 31, 2017, our capital expenditures totaled $16.1 million, primarily related to the ongoing replacement to our rigservice fleet, coiled tubing units, fluid transportation equipment and rental equipment. Our capital expenditure plan for 2018 contemplates spending between$30 million and $35 million, subject to market conditions. This is primarily related to equipment replacement needs, including ongoing replacement to ourrig services fleet. Our capital expenditure program for 2018 is subject to market conditions, including activity levels, commodity prices, industry capacityand specific customer needs as well as cash flows, including cash generated from asset sales. Our focus for 2018 will be the maximization of our currentequipment fleet, but we may choose to increase our capital expenditures in 2018 to expand our presence in a market. We currently anticipate funding our2018 capital expenditures through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flow, proceeds from sales of assets and borrowings under our ABL Facility.Should our operating cash flows or activity levels prove to be insufficient to fund our currently planned capital spending levels, management expects it willadjust our capital spending plans accordingly. We may also incur capital expenditures for strategic investments and acquisitions.Critical Accounting PoliciesOur Accounting Department is responsible for the development and application of our accounting policies and internal control procedures andreports to the Chief Financial Officer.The process of preparing our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions, whichmay affect the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingencies at the balance sheet date, the amounts of revenues and expensesrecognized during the reporting period and the presentation of our statement of cash flows. We may record materially different amounts if these estimates,judgments and assumptions change or if actual results differ. However, we analyze our estimates, assumptions and judgments based on our historicalexperience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.We have identified the following critical accounting policies that require a significant amount of estimation or judgment to accurately present ourfinancial position, results of operations and cash flows:•Revenue recognition;•Estimate of reserves for workers’ compensation, vehicular liability and other self-insurance;•Contingencies;•Income taxes;•Estimates of depreciable lives;•Valuation of indefinite-lived intangible assets;•Valuation of tangible and finite-lived intangible assets; and•Valuation of equity-based compensation.39Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsRevenue RecognitionWe recognize revenue when all of the following criteria have been met: (i) evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or serviceshave been rendered, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed and determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.•Evidence of an arrangement exists when a final understanding between us and our customer has occurred, and can be evidenced by a completedcustomer purchase order, field ticket, supplier contract, or master service agreement.•Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered when we have completed requirements pursuant to the terms of the arrangement asevidenced by a field ticket or service log.•The price to the customer is fixed and determinable when the amount that is required to be paid is agreed upon. Evidence of the price beingfixed and determinable is evidenced by contractual terms, our price book, a completed customer purchase order, or a field ticket.•Collectability is reasonably assured when we screen our customers and provide goods and services to customers according to determined creditterms that have been granted in accordance with our credit policy.We present our revenues net of any sales taxes collected by us from our customers that are required to be remitted to local or state governmentaltaxing authorities.We review our contracts for multiple element revenue arrangements. Deliverables will be separated into units of accounting and assigned fair valueif they have standalone value to our customer, have objective and reliable evidence of fair value, and delivery of undelivered items is substantiallycontrolled by us. We believe that the negotiated prices for deliverables in our services contracts are representative of fair value since the acceptance or non-acceptance of each element in the contract does not affect the other elements.Workers’ Compensation, Vehicular Liability and Other Self-InsuranceThe occurrence of an event not fully insured or indemnified against, or the failure of a customer or insurer to meet its indemnification or insuranceobligations, could result in substantial losses. In addition, insurance may not be available to cover any or all of these risks, and, if available, we might not beable to obtain such insurance without a substantial increase in premiums. It is possible that, in addition to higher premiums, future insurance coverage may besubject to higher deductibles and coverage restrictions.We estimate our liability arising out of uninsured and potentially insured events, including workers’ compensation, employer’s liability, vehicularliability, and general liability, and record accruals in our consolidated financial statements. Reserves related to claims are based on the specific facts andcircumstances of the insured event and our past experience with similar claims and trend analysis. We adjust loss estimates in the calculation of these accrualsbased upon actual claim settlements and reported claims. Loss estimates for individual claims are adjusted based upon actual claim judgments, settlementsand reported claims. The actual outcome of these claims could differ significantly from estimated amounts. Changes in our assumptions and estimates couldpotentially have a negative impact on our earnings.We are primarily self-insured against physical damage to our property, rigs, equipment and automobiles due to large deductibles or self-insurance.ContingenciesWe are periodically required to record other loss contingencies, which relate to lawsuits, claims, proceedings and tax-related audits in the normalcourse of our operations, on our consolidated balance sheet. We record a loss contingency for these matters when it is probable that a liability has beenincurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We periodically review our loss contingencies to ensure that we have recorded appropriateliabilities on the balance sheet. We adjust these liabilities based on estimates and judgments made by management with respect to the likely outcome ofthese matters, including the effect of any applicable insurance coverage for litigation matters. Our estimates and judgments could change based on newinformation, changes in laws or regulations, changes in management’s plans or intentions, the outcome of legal proceedings, settlements or other factors.Actual results could vary materially from these reserves.We record liabilities when environmental assessment indicates that site remediation efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated.We measure environmental liabilities based, in part, on relevant past experience, currently enacted laws and regulations, existing technology, site-specificcosts and cost-sharing arrangements. Recognition of any joint and several liability is based upon our best estimate of our final pro-rata share of such liabilityor the low amount in a range of estimates. These assumptions involve the judgments and estimates of management, and any changes in assumptions or newinformation could lead to increases or decreases in our ultimate liability, with any such changes recognized immediately in earnings.We record legal obligations to retire tangible, long-lived assets on our balance sheet as liabilities, which are recorded at a discount when we incurthe liability. Significant judgment is involved in estimating our future cash flows associated with such40Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsobligations, as well as the ultimate timing of the cash flows. If our estimates on the amount or timing of the cash flows change, the change may have amaterial impact on our results of operations.Income TaxesWe account for deferred income taxes using the asset and liability method and provide income taxes for all significant temporary differences.Management determines our current tax liability as well as taxes incurred as a result of current operations, yet deferred until future periods. Current taxespayable represent our liability related to our income tax returns for the current year, while net deferred tax expense or benefit represents the change in thebalance of deferred tax assets and liabilities reported on our consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted taxrates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Further, managementmakes certain assumptions about the timing of temporary tax differences for the differing treatment of certain items for tax and accounting purposes orwhether such differences are permanent. The final determination of our tax liability involves the interpretation of local tax laws, tax treaties, and relatedauthorities in each jurisdiction as well as the significant use of estimates and assumptions regarding the scope of future operations and results achieved andthe timing and nature of income earned and expenditures incurred.We record valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets if we determine that it is more likely than not (e.g., a likelihood of more than 50%) thatsome or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. To assess the likelihood, we use estimates and judgment regarding our futuretaxable income, as well as the jurisdiction in which this taxable income is generated, to determine whether a valuation allowance is required. The ultimaterealization of the deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character and in the related jurisdiction inthe future. Evidence supporting this ability can include our current financial position, our results of operations, both actual and forecasted results, the reversalof deferred tax liabilities, and tax planning strategies as well as the current and forecasted business economics of our industry. Additionally, we recorduncertain tax positions in the financial statements at their net recognizable amount, based on the amount that management deems is more likely than not tobe sustained upon ultimate settlement with the tax authorities in the domestic and international tax jurisdictions in which we operate.If our estimates or assumptions regarding our current and deferred tax items are inaccurate or are modified, these changes could have potentiallymaterial negative impacts on our earnings.Estimates of Depreciable LivesWe use the estimated depreciable lives of our long-lived assets, such as rigs, heavy-duty trucks and trailers, to compute depreciation expense, toestimate future asset retirement obligations and to conduct impairment tests. We base the estimates of our depreciable lives on a number of factors, such as theenvironment in which the assets operate, industry factors including forecasted prices and competition, and the assumption that we provide the appropriateamount of capital expenditures while the asset is in operation to maintain economical operation of the asset and prevent untimely demise to scrap. The usefullives of our intangible assets are determined by the years over which we expect the assets to generate a benefit based on legal, contractual or otherexpectations.We depreciate our operational assets over their depreciable lives to their salvage value, which is generally 10% of the acquisition cost. We recognizea gain or loss upon ultimate disposal of the asset based on the difference between the carrying value of the asset on the disposal date and any proceeds wereceive in connection with the disposal.We periodically analyze our estimates of the depreciable lives of our fixed assets to determine if the depreciable periods and salvage value continueto be appropriate. We also analyze useful lives and salvage value when events or conditions occur that could shorten the remaining depreciable life of theasset. We review the depreciable periods and salvage values for reasonableness, given current conditions. As a result, our depreciation expense is based uponestimates of depreciable lives of the fixed assets, the salvage value and economic factors, all of which require management to make significant judgments andestimates. If we determine that the depreciable lives should be different than originally estimated, depreciation expense may increase or decrease andimpairments in the carrying values of our fixed assets may result, which could negatively impact our earnings.41Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsValuation of Indefinite-Lived Intangible AssetsWe periodically review our intangible assets not subject to amortization, including our goodwill, to determine whether an impairment of those assetsmay exist. These tests must be made on at least an annual basis, or more often if circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. These circumstancesinclude, but are not limited to, significant adverse changes in the business climate. The test for impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets allows us tofirst assess the qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as abasis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. If our qualitative analysis shows that it is “more likely thannot” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we will perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. In the first step, a fair valueis calculated for each of our reporting units, and that fair value is compared to the current carrying value of the reporting unit, including the reporting unit’sgoodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, there is no potential impairment, and the second step is not performed. If thecarrying value exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the second step is required. The second step of the test for impairment compares the impliedfair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill to its current carrying value. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is determined in the samemanner as the amount of goodwill that would be recognized in a business combination, with the purchase price being equal to the fair value of the reportingunit. If the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is in excess of its carrying value, no impairment charge is recorded. If the carrying value of thereporting unit’s goodwill is in excess of its implied fair value, an impairment charge equal to the excess is recorded. In determining the fair value of ourreporting units, we use a weighted-average approach of three commonly used valuation techniques — a discounted cash flow method, a guideline companiesmethod, and a similar transactions method. We assigned a weight to the results of each of these methods based on the facts and circumstances that are inexistence for that testing period. We assigned more weight to the discounted cash flow method as we believe it is more representative of the future of thebusiness. In addition to the estimates made by management regarding the weighting of the various valuation techniques, the creation of the techniquesthemselves requires that we make significant estimates and assumptions. The discounted cash flow method, which was assigned the highest weight bymanagement during the current year, requires us to make assumptions about future cash flows, future growth rates, tax rates in future periods, book-taxdifferences in the carrying value of our assets in future periods, and discount rates. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on ourcurrent budgets for future periods, as well as our strategic plans, the beliefs of management about future activity levels, and analysts’ expectations about ourrevenues, profitability and cash flows in future periods. The assumptions about our future tax rates and book-tax differences in the carrying value of our assetsin future periods are based on the assumptions about our future cash flows and growth rates, and management’s knowledge of and beliefs about tax law andpractice in current and future periods. The assumptions about discount rates include an assessment of the specific risk associated with each reporting unitbeing tested, and were developed with the assistance of a third-party valuation consultant. The ultimate conclusions of the valuation techniques remain ourresponsibility.Valuation of Tangible and Finite-Lived Intangible AssetsOur fixed assets and finite-lived intangibles are tested for potential impairment when circumstances or events indicate a possible impairment mayexist. These circumstances or events are referred to as “trigger events” and examples of such trigger events include, but are not limited to, an adverse changein market conditions, a significant decrease in benefits being derived from an acquired business, a change in the use of an asset, or a significant disposal of aparticular asset or asset class.If a trigger event occurs, an impairment test is performed based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis. To perform an impairment test, we makejudgments, estimates and assumptions regarding long-term forecasts of revenues and expenses relating to the assets subject to review. Market conditions,energy prices, estimated depreciable lives of the assets, discount rate assumptions and legal factors impact our operations and have a significant effect on theestimates we use to determine whether our assets are impaired. If the results of the undiscounted cash flow analysis indicate that the carrying value of theassets being tested for impairment are not recoverable, then we record an impairment charge to write the carrying value of the assets down to their fair value.Using different judgments, assumptions or estimates, we could potentially arrive at a materially different fair value for the assets being tested for impairment,which may result in an impairment charge.Valuation of Equity-Based CompensationWe issue or have issued time-based vesting and performance-based vesting stock options, time-based vesting and performance-based vestingrestricted stock units, and restricted stock awards to our employees and non-employee directors. The options we grant are fair valued using a Black-Scholesoption model on the grant date and are amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period of the option, net of forfeitures. Compensation related torestricted stock units and restricted stock awards is based on the fair value of the award on the grant date and is amortized to compensation expense over thevesting period of the award, net of forfeitures. The grant-date fair value of our time-based restricted stock units and restricted stock awards is determined usingour stock price on the grant date. The grant-date fair value of our performance-based restricted stock units is determined using our stock price on the grantdate assuming a 1.0x payout target, however, a maximum 2.0x payout could be achieved if certain EBITDA-based performance measures are met.42Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsIn utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine fair values of stock options, certain assumptions are made which are based onsubjective expectations, and are subject to change. A change in one or more of these assumptions would impact the expense associated with future grants.These key assumptions include the historical stock price volatility, the risk-free interest rate and the expected life of awards. In view of the limited amount oftime elapsed since our reorganization, volatility is calculated based on historical stock price volatility of our peer group with a lookback period equivalent tothe expected term of the award.Valuation of WarrantsPursuant to the Plan and on the Effective Date, the Company issued two series of warrants to the former holders of the Predecessor Company'scommon stock. One series of warrants will expire on December 15, 2020 and the other series of warrants will expire on December 15, 2021. Each warrant isexercisable for one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01. At issuance, the warrants were recorded at fair value, which was determined usingthe Black-Scholes option pricing model. The warrants are equity classified and, at issuance, were recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital in theamount of $3.8 million.Recent Accounting DevelopmentsASU 2016-18. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Restricted Cash. This standard providesguidance on the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalentsshould be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown on the statements of cashflows. The amendments of this ASU should be applied using a retrospective transition method and are effective for reporting periods beginning afterDecember 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Other than the revised statement of cash flows presentation of restricted cash, the adoption of ASU 2016-18 is not expected to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.ASU 2016-15. In August 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts andCash Payments (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (ASU 2016-15)”, that clarifies how entities should classify certain cash receipts andcash payments on the statement of cash flows. The guidance also clarifies how the predominance principle should be applied when cash receipts and cashpayments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. The guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interimperiods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 is not expected to have an impact on our consolidatedfinancial statements.ASU 2016-13. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” that will change howcompanies measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. The standardwill replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities,entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount. The amendments in this update will be effective for annual periodsbeginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the effect of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.ASU 2016-09. In March 2016, the FASB Issued ASU 2016-09 Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This standard changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payment awards to employees, including theaccounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The Companyadopted the accounting guidance as of January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. We have elected to account for forfeitures of equity awards as they occur. Theadoption of this guidance did not have a material impact our consolidated financial statements, with the exception of excess tax benefits and tax deficienciesnow being recognized as income tax expense or benefit on the income statement rather than as additional paid in capital on the balance sheet and theirclassification on the statement of cash flow as operating activity rather than financing activity.ASU 2016-02. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will replace the existing lease guidance. The standard isintended to provide enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on thebalance sheet. Additional disclosure requirements include qualitative disclosures along with specific quantitative disclosures with the objective of enablingusers of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company forannual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The newstandard is required to be applied with a modified retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented. We are currently evaluating the standard todetermine the impact of its adoption on the consolidated financial statements.ASU 2014-09. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The objective of this ASU is toestablish the principles to report useful information to users of financial statements about the nature,43Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsamount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goodsor services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU2014-09 must be adopted using either a full retrospective method or a modified retrospective method.We formed a project team to implement this standard and the team has scoped, identified the relevant revenue streams and documented theprocedures and control changes required to address the impacts that ASU 2014-09 may have had on our business. We are now in the process of training ourstaff on the procedures and controls that went into effect January 1, 2018. Our implementation efforts included the identification of revenue streams withsimilar contract structures, performing a detailed review of key contracts by revenue stream and comparing historical policies and practices to the newstandard. The Company’s services and rental contracts, which principally charge on a day rate basis, are primarily short-term in nature, and therefore, basedon the assessment, the Company has concluded that the adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Wehave adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method.ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKWhen we had operations in Russia, which was sold in the third quarter of 2017, we were exposed to certain market risks as part of our former businessoperations, including risks from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates that could have impacted our financial position, results ofoperations and cash flows. We managed our exposure to these risks through regular operating and financing activities, and could have, on a limited basis,used derivative financial instruments to manage this risk. Derivative financial instruments were not used in the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and2015. To the extent that we would have used such derivative financial instruments, we would have used them only as risk management tools and not forspeculative investment purposes.Interest Rate RiskBorrowings under our Term Loan Facility bear interest at variable interest rates, and therefore expose us to interest rate risk. As of December 31,2017, the interest rate on our outstanding variable-rate debt obligations was 11.61%. A hypothetical 10% increase in that rate would increase the annualinterest expense on those instruments by $2.9 million. Borrowings under our ABL Facility also bear interest at variable interest rates, however, there are noborrowings under this facility as of December 31, 2017.Foreign Currency RiskAs of December 31, 2017, we no longer conduct operations in Russia. We completed the sale of our Russian subsidiary in the third quarter of 2017.We also had a Canadian subsidiary which was sold in the second quarter of 2017. The local currency was the functional currency for our former operations inRussia. For balances denominated in our former Russian subsidiary's local currency, changes in the value of their assets and liabilities due to changes inexchange rates were deferred and accumulated in other comprehensive income until we liquidated our investment. Our former Russian subsidiary remeasuredits account balances at the end of each period to an equivalent amount of U.S. dollars, with changes reflected in earnings during those periods. A hypothetical10% decrease in the average value of the U.S. dollar relative to the value of the local currency for our former Russian subsidiary would have increased our netloss by $0.2 million.44Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsITEM 8.

(a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as ofDecember 31, 2017, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizationsof the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reportingas of December 31, 2017, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO.We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidatedfinancial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, and our report dated February 28, 2018 expressed an unqualifiedopinion on those financial statements.Basis for opinionThe Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness ofinternal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Ourresponsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firmregistered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and theapplicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

Our audit included obtaining anunderstanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operatingeffectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Webelieve that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reportingA company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reportingand the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal controlover financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairlyreflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permitpreparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are beingmade only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention ortimely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation ofeffectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliancewith the policies or procedures may deteriorate./s/ GRANT THORNTON LLPHouston, TexasFebruary 28, 201847Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsKey Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesCONSOLIDATED

ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESKey Energy Services, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Key,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “its,” and “our”) provide a full rangeof well services to major oil companies, independent oil and natural gas production companies. Our services include rig-based and coiled tubing-based wellmaintenance and workover services, well completion and recompletion services, fluid management services, fishing and rental services, and other ancillaryoilfield services. Additionally, certain of our rigs are capable of specialty drilling applications. We operate in most major oil and natural gas producingregions of the continental United States.Basis of PresentationThe consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present our financial position, results of operations and cashflows for the periods presented in accordance with GAAP.The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to develop estimates and to make assumptions that affect our financialposition, results of operations and cash flows. These estimates also impact the nature and extent of our disclosure, if any, of our contingent liabilities. Amongother things, we use estimates to (i) analyze assets for possible impairment, (ii) determine depreciable lives for our assets, (iii) assess future tax exposure andrealization of deferred tax assets, (iv) determine amounts to accrue for contingencies, (v) value tangible and intangible assets, (vi) assess workers’compensation, vehicular liability, self-insured risk accruals and other insurance reserves, (vii) provide allowances for our uncollectible accounts receivable,(viii) value our asset retirement obligations, and (ix) value our equity-based compensation. We review all significant estimates on a recurring basis and recordthe effect of any necessary adjustments prior to publication of our financial statements. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates relate toimproved information not previously available. Because of the limitations inherent in this process, our actual results may differ materially from theseestimates. We believe that our estimates are reasonable.On October 24, 2016, Key and certain of our domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of the United StatesBankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware pursuant to a prepackaged plan of reorganization (“the Plan”). The Planwas confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on December 6, 2016, and the Company emerged from the bankruptcy proceedings on December 15, 2016 (“theEffective Date”).Upon emergence on the Effective Date, the Company adopted fresh start accounting which resulted in the creation of a new entity for financialreporting purposes. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting, as well as the effects of the implementation of the Plan, the Consolidated FinancialStatements on or after December 16, 2016 are not comparable with the Consolidated Financial Statements prior to that date. Refer to “Note 3. Fresh StartAccounting” for additional information.References to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the reorganized Company subsequentto December 15, 2016. References to “Predecessor” or “Predecessor Company” refer to the financial position and results of operations of the Company on andprior to December 15, 2016.We have evaluated events occurring after the balance sheet date included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for possible disclosure as asubsequent event. Management monitored for subsequent events through the date that these financial statements were issued.Principles of ConsolidationWithin our consolidated financial statements, we include our accounts and the accounts of our majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. Weeliminate intercompany accounts and transactions. When we have an interest in an entity for which we do not have significant control or influence, weaccount for that interest using the cost method. When we have an interest in an entity and can exert significant influence but not control, we account for thatinterest using the equity method.AcquisitionsFrom time to time, we acquire businesses or assets that are consistent with our long-term growth strategy. Results of operations for acquisitions areincluded in our financial statements beginning on the date of acquisition and are accounted for using the acquisition method. For all business combinations(whether partial, full or in stages), the acquirer records 100% of all assets and liabilities of the acquired business, including goodwill, at their fair values;including contingent consideration. Final valuations of assets and liabilities are obtained and recorded as soon as practicable no later than one year from thedate of the acquisition.Revenue RecognitionWe recognize revenue when all of the following criteria have been met: (i) evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or serviceshave been rendered, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed and determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.53Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)•Evidence of an arrangement exists when a final understanding between us and our customer has occurred, and can be evidenced by a completedcustomer purchase order, field ticket, supplier contract, or master service agreement.•Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered when we have completed requirements pursuant to the terms of the arrangement asevidenced by a field ticket or service log.•The price to the customer is fixed and determinable when the amount that is required to be paid is agreed upon. The price being fixed anddeterminable is evidenced by contractual terms, our price book, a completed customer purchase order, or a field ticket.•Collectability is reasonably assured when we screen our customers and provide goods and services according to determined credit terms thathave been granted in accordance with our credit policy.We present our revenues net of any sales taxes collected by us from our customers that are required to be remitted to local or state governmentaltaxing authorities.We review our contracts for multiple element revenue arrangements. Deliverables will be separated into units of accounting and assigned fair valueif they have standalone value to our customer, have objective and reliable evidence of fair value, and delivery of undelivered items is substantiallycontrolled by us. We believe that the negotiated prices for deliverables in our services contracts are representative of fair value since the acceptance or non-acceptance of each element in the contract does not affect the other elements.Cash and Cash EquivalentsWe consider short-term investments with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2017, all of ourobligations under our ABL Facility and Term Loan Facility were secured by most of our assets, including assets held by our subsidiaries, which includes ourcash and cash equivalents. We restrict investment of cash to financial institutions with high credit standing and limit the amount of credit exposure to anyone financial institution.We maintain our cash in bank deposit and brokerage accounts which exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2017, accounts wereguaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 and substantially all of our accounts held deposits in excess of the FDIClimits.We believe that the cash held by our other foreign subsidiaries could be repatriated for general corporate use without material withholdings. Fromtime to time and in the normal course of business in connection with our operations or ongoing legal matters, we are required to place certain amounts of ourcash in deposit accounts with restrictions that limit our ability to withdraw those funds. Our restricted cash is primarily used to maintain compliance with ourABL Facility.Certain of our cash accounts are zero-balance controlled disbursement accounts that do not have right of offset against our other cash balances. Wepresent the outstanding checks written against these zero-balance accounts as a component of accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balancesheets.Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful AccountsWe establish provisions for losses on accounts receivable if we determine that there is a possibility that we will not collect all or part of theoutstanding balances. We regularly review accounts over 150 days past due from the invoice date for collectability and establish or adjust our allowance asnecessary using the specific identification method. If we exhaust all collection efforts and determine that the balance will never be collected, we write off theaccounts receivable and the associated provision for uncollectible accounts.From time to time we are entitled to proceeds under our insurance policies for amounts that we have reserved in our self-insurance liability. Wepresent these insurance receivables gross on our balance sheet as a component of other assets, separate from the corresponding liability.Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant CustomersOur customers include major oil and natural gas production companies, independent oil and natural gas production companies, and natural gasproduction companies. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and usually do not require material collateral. We maintain reserves forpotential credit losses when necessary. Our results of operations and financial position should be considered in light of the fluctuations in demandexperienced by oilfield service companies as changes in oil and gas producers’ expenditures and budgets occur. These fluctuations can impact our results ofoperations and financial position as supply and demand factors directly affect utilization and hours which are the primary determinants of our net cashprovided by operating activities.During the year ended December 31, 2017, the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015,Chevron Texaco Exploration and Production accounted for approximately 12%, 14% and 15% of our54Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)consolidated revenue, respectively. During the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016, OXY USA Inc. accounted for approximately 13% ofour consolidated revenue. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue during the year ended December 31, 2017, periodsended from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016, December 16, 2016 through December 31, 2016 or in the year ended December 31, 2016.Receivables outstanding for OXY USA Inc. were approximately 11% of our total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2016. No other customersaccounted for more than 10% of our total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.InventoriesInventories, which consist primarily of equipment parts and spares for use in our operations and supplies held for consumption, are valued at thelower of average cost or market.Property and EquipmentProperty and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for our assets over the estimated depreciablelives of the assets using the straight-line method. Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2017, the period from December 16, 2016 throughDecember 31, 2016, the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 was $84.5 million, $3.6 million,$129.5 million and $176.1 million, respectively. We depreciate our operational assets over their depreciable lives to their salvage value, which is a valuehigher than the assets’ value as scrap. Salvage value approximates 10% of an operational asset’s acquisition cost. When an operational asset is stacked ortaken out of service, we review its physical condition, depreciable life and ultimate salvage value to determine if the asset is operable and whether theremaining depreciable life and salvage value should be adjusted. When we scrap an asset, we accelerate the depreciation of the asset down to its salvagevalue. When we dispose of an asset, a gain or loss is recognized.As of December 31, 2017, the estimated useful lives of our asset classes are as follows:DescriptionYearsWell service rigs and components3-15Oilfield trucks, vehicles and related equipment4-7Fishing and rental tools, coiled tubing units and equipment, tubulars and pressure control equipment3-10Disposal wells15Furniture and equipment3-7Buildings and improvements15-30A long-lived asset or asset group should be tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amountmay not be recoverable. For purposes of testing for impairment, we group our long-lived assets along our lines of business based on the services provided,which is the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. We would record animpairment charge, reducing the net carrying value to estimated fair value, if the asset group’s estimated future cash flows were less than its net carryingvalue. Events or changes in circumstance that cause us to evaluate our fixed assets for recoverability and possible impairment may include changes in marketconditions, such as adverse movements in the prices of oil and natural gas, or changes of an asset group, such as its expected future life, intended use orphysical condition, which could reduce the fair value of certain of our property and equipment. The development of future cash flows and the determinationof fair value for an asset group involves significant judgment and estimates. See “Note 10. Property and Equipment,” for further discussion.Asset Retirement ObligationsWe recognize a liability for the fair value of all legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and capitalize an equalamount as a cost of the asset. We depreciate the additional cost over the estimated useful life of the assets. Our obligations to perform our asset retirementactivities are unconditional, despite the uncertainties that may exist surrounding an individual retirement activity. Accordingly, we recognize a liability forthe fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value can be reasonably estimated. In determining the fair value, we examine the inputsthat we believe a market participant would use if we were to transfer the liability. We probability-weight the potential costs a third-party would charge, adjustthe cost for inflation for the estimated life of the asset, and discount this cost using our credit adjusted risk free rate. Significant judgment is involved inestimating future cash flows associated with such obligations, as well as the ultimate timing of those cash flows. If our estimates of the amount or timing ofthe cash flows change, such changes may have a material impact on our results of operations. See “Note 13. Asset Retirement Obligations.”55Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)DepositsDue to capacity constraints on equipment manufacturers, we are sometimes required to make advanced payments for certain oilfield serviceequipment and other items used in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, deposits totaled $1.2 million and $8.3million, respectively. Deposits consist primarily of deposit requirements of insurance companies and payments made related to high demand long-lead timeitems.Capitalized InterestInterest is capitalized on the average amount of accumulated expenditures for major capital projects under construction using an effective interestrate based on related debt until the underlying assets are placed into service. The capitalized interest is added to the cost of the assets and amortized todepreciation expense over the useful life of the assets, and is included in the depreciation and amortization line in the accompanying consolidated statementsof operations.Deferred Financing CostsDeferred financing costs associated with long-term debt are carried at cost and are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest methodover the life of the related debt instrument. When the related debt instrument is retired, any remaining unamortized costs are included in the determination ofthe gain or loss on the extinguishment of the debt. We record gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt as a part of continuing operations. Inaccordance with ASU 2015-03, we record debt financing costs as a reduction of our long-term debt. See “Note 16. Long-term Debt,” for further discussion.Goodwill and Other Intangible AssetsGoodwill results from business combinations and represents the excess of the acquisition consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired.Goodwill and other intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstancesindicate that the asset might be impaired.The test for impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets allows us to first assess the qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likelythan not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-stepgoodwill impairment test. If our qualitative analysis shows that it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carryingamount, we will perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. In the first step of the test, a fair value is calculated for each of our reporting units, and thatfair value is compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit, including the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds itscarrying value, there is no impairment, and the second step of the test is not performed. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value for the reporting unit, thenthe second step of the test is required.The second step of the test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill to its carrying value. The implied fair value of thereporting unit’s goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination, with the purchase price beingequal to the fair value of the reporting unit. If the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is in excess of its carrying value, no impairment isrecorded. If the carrying value is in excess of the implied fair value, an impairment equal to the excess is recorded.To assist management in the preparation and analysis of the valuation of our reporting units, we utilize the services of a third-party valuationconsultant. The ultimate conclusions of the valuation techniques remain our sole responsibility. The determination of the fair value used in the test is heavilyimpacted by the market prices of our equity and debt securities, as well as the assumptions and estimates about our future activity levels, profitability andcash flows.Internal-Use SoftwareWe capitalize costs incurred during the application development stage of internal-use software and amortize these costs over the software’sestimated useful life, generally five to seven years. Costs incurred related to selection or maintenance of internal-use software are expensed as incurred.LitigationWhen estimating our liabilities related to litigation, we take into account all available facts and circumstances in order to determine whether a loss isprobable and reasonably estimable.Various suits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business are pending against us. We conduct business throughout the continental UnitedStates and may be subject to jury verdicts or arbitrations that result in outcomes in favor of the plaintiffs. We are also exposed to various claims abroad. Wecontinually assess our contingent liabilities, including potential litigation liabilities, as well as the adequacy of our accruals and our need for the disclosureof these items. We establish a provision for a56Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)contingent liability when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. See “Note 17. Commitments andContingencies.”EnvironmentalOur operations routinely involve the storage, handling, transport and disposal of bulk waste materials, some of which contain oil, contaminants, andregulated substances. These operations are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations intended to protect the environment.Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition causedby past operations and that have no future economic benefits are expensed. We record liabilities on an undiscounted basis when our remediation efforts areprobable and the costs to conduct such remediation efforts can be reasonably estimated. While our litigation reserves reflect the application of our insurancecoverage, our environmental reserves do not reflect management’s assessment of the insurance coverage that may apply to the matters at issue. See “Note 17.Commitments and Contingencies.”Self-InsuranceWe are primarily self-insured against physical damage to our equipment and automobiles as well as workers’ compensation claims. The accruals thatwe maintain on our consolidated balance sheet relate to these deductibles and self-insured retentions, which we estimate through the use of historical claimsdata and trend analysis. To assist management with the liability amount for our self-insurance reserves, we utilize the services of a third party actuary. Theactual outcome of any claim could differ significantly from estimated amounts. We adjust loss estimates in the calculation of these accruals, based uponactual claim settlements and reported claims. See “Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies.”Income TaxesWe account for deferred income taxes using the asset and liability method and provide income taxes for all significant temporary differences.Management determines our current tax liability as well as taxes incurred as a result of current operations, yet deferred until future periods. Current taxespayable represent our liability related to our income tax returns for the current year, while net deferred tax expense or benefit represents the change in thebalance of deferred tax assets and liabilities reported on our consolidated balance sheets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted taxrates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Further, managementmakes certain assumptions about the timing of temporary tax differences for the differing treatment of certain items for tax and accounting purposes orwhether such differences are permanent. The final determination of our tax liability involves the interpretation of local tax laws, tax treaties, and relatedauthorities in each jurisdiction as well as the significant use of estimates and assumptions regarding the scope of future operations and results achieved andthe timing and nature of income earned and expenditures incurred.We record valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets if we determine that it is more likely than not (e.g., a likelihood of more than 50%) thatsome or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. To assess the likelihood, we use estimates and judgment regarding our futuretaxable income, as well as the jurisdiction in which this taxable income is generated, to determine whether a valuation allowance is required. The ultimaterealization of the deferred tax assets depends on the ability to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character and in the related jurisdiction inthe future. Evidence supporting this ability can include our current financial position, our results of operations, both actual and forecasted results, the reversalof deferred tax liabilities, and tax planning strategies as well as the current and forecasted business economics of our industry. Additionally, we recorduncertain tax positions in the financial statements at their net recognizable amount, based on the amount that management deems is more likely than not tobe sustained upon ultimate settlement with the tax authorities in the domestic and international tax jurisdictions in which we operate.If our estimates or assumptions regarding our current and deferred tax items are inaccurate or are modified, these changes could have potentiallymaterial negative impacts on our earnings. See “Note 15. Income Taxes” for further discussion of accounting for income taxes, changes in our valuationallowance, components of our tax rate reconciliation and realization of loss carryforwards.Earnings Per ShareBasic earnings per common share is determined by dividing net earnings applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of commonshares actually outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is based on the increased number of shares that would be outstandingassuming conversion of dilutive outstanding convertible securities using the treasury stock and “as if converted” methods. See “Note 12. Earnings PerShare.”57Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)Share-Based CompensationWe issue or have issued time-based vesting and performance-based vesting stock options, time-based vesting and performance-based vestingrestricted stock units, and restricted stock awards to our employees as part of those employees’ compensation and as a retention tool for non-employeedirectors. We calculate the fair value of the awards on the grant date and amortize that fair value to compensation expense ratably over the vesting period ofthe award, net of forfeitures. The grant-date fair value of our time-based restricted stock units and restricted stock awards is determined using our stock priceon the grant date. The grant-date fair value of our performance-based restricted stock units is determined using our stock price on the grant date assuming a1.0x payout target, however, a maximum 2.0x payout could be achieved if certain EBITDA-based performance measures are met. The fair value of our stockoption awards are estimated using a Black-Scholes fair value model. The valuation of our stock options requires us to estimate the expected term of award,which we estimate using the simplified method, as we do not have sufficient historical exercise information. Additionally, the valuation of our stock optionawards is also dependent on historical stock price volatility. In view of the limited amount of time elapsed since our reorganization, volatility is calculatedbased on historical stock price volatility of our peer group with a lookback period equivalent to the expected term of the award. Fair value of performance-based stock options and restricted stock units is estimated in the same manner as our time-based awards and assumes that performance goals will be achievedand the awards will vest. If the performance based awards do not vest, any previously recognized compensation costs will be reversed. We record share-basedcompensation as a component of general and administrative or direct operating expense based on the role of the applicable individual. See “Note 21. Share-Based Compensation.”Foreign Currency Gains and LossesWith respect to our former operations in Russia, which was sold in the third quarter of 2017, where the local currency was the functional currency,assets and liabilities were translated at the rates of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date, while income and expense items were translated at averagerates of exchange during the period. The resulting gains or losses arising from the translation of accounts from the functional currency to the U.S. dollar wereincluded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity in other comprehensive income until a partial or complete sale or liquidation of our net investmentin the foreign entity. See “Note 18. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.”From time to time our former foreign subsidiaries may have entered into transactions that are denominated in currencies other than their functionalcurrency. These transactions were initially recorded in the functional currency of that subsidiary based on the applicable exchange rate in effect on the dateof the transaction. At the end of each month, those transactions were remeasured to an equivalent amount of the functional currency based on the applicableexchange rates in effect at that time. Any adjustment required to remeasure a transaction to the equivalent amount of the functional currency at the end of themonth was recorded in the income or loss of the foreign subsidiary as a component of other income, net.Comprehensive LossWe display comprehensive loss and its components in our financial statements, and we classify items of comprehensive income (loss) by their naturein our financial statements and display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income (loss) separately in our stockholders’ equity.LeasesWe lease real property and equipment through various leasing arrangements. When we enter into a leasing arrangement, we analyze the terms of thearrangement to determine whether the lease should be accounted for as an operating lease or a capital lease.We periodically incur costs to improve the assets that we lease under these arrangements. If the value of the leasehold improvements exceeds ourthreshold for capitalization, we record the improvement as a component of our property and equipment and amortize the improvement over the useful life ofthe improvement or the lease term, whichever is shorter.Certain of our operating lease agreements are structured to include scheduled and specified rent increases over the term of the lease agreement. Theseincreases may be the result of an inducement or “rent holiday” conveyed to us early in the lease, or are included to reflect the anticipated effects of inflation.We recognize scheduled and specified rent increases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement. In addition, certain of our operating leaseagreements contain incentives to induce us to enter into the lease agreement, such as up-front cash payments to us, payment by the lessor of our costs, such asmoving expenses, or the assumption by the lessor of our pre-existing lease agreements with third parties. Any payments made to us or on our behalf representincentives that we consider to be a reduction of our rent expense, and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement.58Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)Recent Accounting DevelopmentsASU 2016-18. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Restricted Cash. This standard providesguidance on the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalentsshould be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown on the statements of cashflows. The amendments of this ASU should be applied using a retrospective transition method and are effective for reporting periods beginning afterDecember 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Other than the revised statement of cash flows presentation of restricted cash, the adoption of ASU 2016-16 is not expected to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.ASU 2016-15. In August 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts andCash Payments (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (ASU 2016-15)”, that clarifies how entities should classify certain cash receipts andcash payments on the statement of cash flows. The guidance also clarifies how the predominance principle should be applied when cash receipts and cashpayments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. The guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interimperiods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 is not expected to have an impact on our consolidatedfinancial statements.ASU 2016-13. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” that will change howcompanies measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. The standardwill replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities,entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount. The amendments in this update will be effective for annual periodsbeginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the effect of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.ASU 2016-09. In March 2016, the FASB Issued ASU 2016-09 Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This standard changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payment awards to employees, including theaccounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The Companyadopted the accounting guidance as of January 1, 2017 on a prospective basis. We have elected to account for forfeitures of equity awards as they occur. Theadoption of this guidance did not have a material impact our consolidated financial statements, with the exception of excess tax benefits and tax deficienciesnow being recognized as income tax expense or benefit on the income statement rather than as additional paid in capital on the balance sheet and theirclassification on the statement of cash flow as operating activity rather than financing activity.ASU 2016-02. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will replace the existing lease guidance. The standard isintended to provide enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on thebalance sheet. Additional disclosure requirements include qualitative disclosures along with specific quantitative disclosures with the objective of enablingusers of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company forannual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The newstandard is required to be applied with a modified retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented. We are currently evaluating the standard todetermine the impact of its adoption on the consolidated financial statements.ASU 2014-09. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The objective of this ASU is toestablish the principles to report useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue fromcontracts with customers. The core principle is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount thatreflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 must be adopted using either a fullretrospective method or a modified retrospective method.We formed a project team to implement this standard and the team has scoped, identified the relevant revenue streams and documented theprocedures and control changes required to address the impacts that ASU 2014-09 may have had on our business. We are now in the process of training ourstaff on the procedures and controls that went into effect January 1, 2018. Our implementation efforts included the identification of revenue streams withsimilar contract structures, performing a detailed review of key contracts by revenue stream and comparing historical policies and practices to the newstandard. The Company’s services and rental contracts, which principally charge on a day rate basis, are primarily short-term in nature, and therefore, basedon the assessment, the Company has concluded that the adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Wehave adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method.59Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)NOTE 2. EMERGENCE FROM VOLUNTARY REORGANIZATIONOn October 24, 2016, Key and certain of our domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under chapter 11 of the United StatesBankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware pursuant to a prepackaged plan of reorganization. The Plan wasconfirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on December 6, 2016, and the Company emerged from the bankruptcy proceedings on December 15, 2016.On the Effective Date, the Company:•Reincorporated the Successor Company in the state of Delaware and adopted an amended and restated certificate of incorporation andbylaws;•Appointed new members to the Successor Company’s board of directors to replace directors of the Predecessor Company;•Issued to the Predecessor Company’s former stockholders, in exchange for the cancellation and discharge of the Predecessor Company’scommon stock:◦815,887 shares of the Successor Company’s common stock;◦919,004 warrants to expire on December 15, 2020, and 919,004 warrants to expire on December 15, 2021, each exercisable for oneshare of the Successor Company’s common stock;•Issued to former holders of the Predecessor Company’s 6.75% senior notes, in exchange for the cancellation and discharge of such notes,7,500,000 shares of the Successor Company’s common stock;•Issued 11,769,014 shares of the Successor Company’s common stock to certain participants in rights offerings conducted pursuant to thePlan;•Issued to Soter Capital LLC (“Soter”) the sole share of the Successor Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, which confers certain rights toelect directors (but has no economic rights);•Entered into a new $80 million ABL Facility (which was increased to $100 million on February 3, 2017) and a $250 million Term LoanFacility upon termination of the Predecessor Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility and term loan facility;•Entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with certain stockholders of the Successor Company;•Adopted the 2016 Incentive Plan for officers, directors and employees of the Successor Company and its subsidiaries; and•Entered into a corporate advisory services agreement between the Successor Company and Platinum Equity Advisors, LLC (“Platinum”)pursuant to which Platinum will provide certain business advisory services to the Company.The foregoing is a summary of the substantive provisions of the Plan and related transactions and is not intended to be a complete description of, ora substitute for a full and complete reading of, the Plan and the other documents referred to above.NOTE 3. FRESH START ACCOUNTINGIn accordance ASC 852 Reorganizations (“ASC 852”), fresh-start accounting was required upon the Company’s emergence from Chapter 11 because(i) the holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor and (ii) the reorganization value of thePredecessor assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.60Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)All conditions required for the adoption of fresh-start accounting were met when the Company’s Plan of Reorganization became effective, December15, 2016. The implementation of the Plan and the application of fresh-start accounting materially changed the carrying amounts and classifications reportedin the Company’s consolidated financial statements and resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. As a result of theapplication of fresh-start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan, the financial statements after December 15, 2016 are not comparablewith the financial statements on and prior to December 15, 2016.Upon the application of fresh-start accounting, the Company allocated the reorganization value to its individual assets and liabilities in conformitywith ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor Company’s assets before consideringliabilities. The excess reorganization value over the fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets is reported as goodwill.Reorganization Value - Under ASC 852, the Successor Company must determine a value to be assigned to the equity of the emerging company as ofthe date of adoption of fresh-start accounting. To facilitate this calculation, the Company estimated the enterprise value of the Successor Company by relyingon a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis under the income approach. The Company also considered the guideline public company and guidelinetransactions methods under the market approach as reasonableness checks to the indications from the income approach.Enterprise value represents the fair value of an entity’s interest-bearing debt and stockholders’ equity. In the disclosure statement associated with thePlan, which was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company estimated a range of enterprise values between $425 million and $475 million, with amidpoint of $450 million. The Company deemed it appropriate to use the midpoint between the low end and high end of the range to determine the finalenterprise value of $450 million utilized for fresh-start accounting. The enterprise value plus excess cash adjustments of approximately $52 million less thefair value of debt of $250 million, resulted in equity value of the Successor of $252.1 million.To estimate enterprise value utilizing the DCF method, the Company established an estimate of future cash flows for the period ranging from 2016to 2025 and discounted the estimated future cash flows to present value. The expected cash flows for the period 2016 to 2025 were based on the financialprojections and assumptions utilized in the disclosure statement. The expected cash flows for the period 2016 to 2025 were derived from earnings forecastsand assumptions regarding growth and margin projections, as applicable. A terminal value was included, based on the cash flows of the final year of theforecast period.The discount rate of 14.5% was estimated based on an after-tax weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) reflecting the rate of return that would beexpected by a market participant. The WACC also takes into consideration a company specific risk premium reflecting the risk associated with the overalluncertainty of the financial projections used to estimate future cash flows.The guideline public company and guideline transaction analysis identified a group of comparable companies and transactions that have operatingand financial characteristics comparable in certain respects to the Company, including, for example, comparable lines of business, business risks and marketpresence. Under these methodologies, certain financial multiples and ratios that measure financial performance and value are calculated for each selectedcompany or transactions and then compared to the implied multiples from the DCF analysis. The Company considered enterprise value as a multiple of eachselected company and transactions publicly available earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”).The estimated enterprise value and the equity value are highly dependent on the achievement of the future financial results contemplated in theprojections that were set forth in the Plan. The estimates and assumptions made in the valuation are inherently subject to significant uncertainties. Theprimary assumptions for which there is a reasonable possibility of the occurrence of a variation that would have significantly affected the reorganizationvalue include the assumptions regarding revenue growth, operating expenses, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and the discount rate utilized.Fresh-start accounting reflects the value of the Successor Company as determined in the confirmed Plan. Under fresh-start accounting, asset valuesare remeasured and allocated based on their respective fair values in conformity with the purchase method of accounting for business combinations in ASC805. Liabilities existing as of the Effective Date, other than deferred taxes were recorded at the present value of amounts expected to be paid usingappropriate risk adjusted interest rates. Deferred taxes were determined in conformity with applicable accounting standards. Predecessor accumulateddepreciation, accumulated amortization, accumulated other comprehensive loss and retained deficit were eliminated.The significant assumptions related to the valuations of assets and liabilities in connection with fresh-start accounting include the following:61Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)Machinery and EquipmentTo estimate the fair value of machinery and equipment, the Company considered the income approach, the cost approach, and the sales comparison(market) approach. The primary approaches that were relied upon to value these assets were the cost approach and the market approach. Although the incomeapproach was not applied to value the machinery and equipment assets individually, the Company did consider the earnings of the enterprise of which theseassets are a part. When more than one approach is used to develop a valuation, the various approaches are reconciled to determine a final value conclusion.The typical starting point or basis of the valuation estimate is replacement cost new (RCN), reproduction cost new (CRN), or a combination of both.Once the RCN and CRN estimates are adjusted for physical and functional conditions, they are then compared to market data and other indications of value,where available, to confirm results obtained by the cost approach.Where direct RCN estimates were not available or deemed inappropriate, the CRN for machinery and equipment was estimated using the indirect(trending) method, in which percentage changes in applicable price indices are applied to historical costs to convert them into indications of current costs. Toestimate the CRN amounts, inflation indices from established external sources were then applied to historical costs to estimate the CRN for each asset.The market approach measures the value of an asset through an analysis of recent sales or offerings of comparable property, and takes into accountphysical, functional and economic conditions. Where direct or comparable matches could not be reasonably obtained, the Company utilized the percent ofcost technique of the market approach. This technique looks at general sales, sales listings, and auction data for each major asset category. This information isthen used in conjunction with each asset’s effective age to develop ratios between the sales price and RCN or CRN of similar asset types. A market-baseddepreciation curve was developed and applied to asset categories where sufficient sales and auction information existed.Where market information was not available or a market approach was deemed inappropriate, the Company developed a cost approach. In doing so,an indicated value is derived by deducting physical deterioration from the RCN or CRN of each identifiable asset or group of assets. Physical deterioration isthe loss in value or usefulness of a property due to the using up or expiration of its useful life caused by wear and tear, deterioration, exposure to variouselements, physical stresses, and similar factors.Functional and economic obsolescence related to these was also considered. Functional obsolescence due to excess capital costs was eliminatedthrough the direct method of the cost approach to estimate the RCN. Functional obsolescence was applied in the form of a cost-to-cure penalty to certainpersonal property assets needing significant capital repairs. Economic obsolescence was also applied to stacked and underutilized assets based on the statusof the asset. Economic obsolescence was also considered in situations in which the earnings of the applicable business segment in which the assets areemployed suggest economic obsolescence. When penalizing assets for economic obsolescence, an additional economic obsolescence penalty was levied ,while considering scrap value to be the floor value for an asset.Land and BuildingIn establishing the fair value of the real property assets, each of the three traditional approaches to value: the income approach, the market approachand the cost approach was considered. The Company primarily relied on the market and cost approaches.Land - In valuing the fee simple interest in the land, the Company utilized the sales comparison approach (market approach). The sales comparisonapproach estimates value based on what other purchasers and sellers in the market have agreed to as the price for comparable properties. This approach isbased on the principle of substitution, which states that the limits of prices, rents and rates tend to be set by the prevailing prices, rents and rates of equallydesirable substitutes. In conducting the sales comparison approach, data was gathered on comparable properties and adjustments were made for factorsincluding market conditions, size, access/frontage, zoning, location, and conditions of sale. Greatest weight was typically given to the comparable sales inproximity and similar in size to each of the owned sites. In some cases, market participants were contacted to augment the analysis and to confirm theconclusions of value.Building & Site Improvements - In valuing the fee simple interest in the real property improvements, the Company utilized the direct and indirectmethods of the cost approach. For the direct method cost approach analysis, the starting point or basis of the cost approach is the RCN. In order to estimatethe RCN of the buildings and site improvements, various factors were considered including building size, year built, number of stories, and the breakout ofthe space, property history, and maintenance history. We used the data collected to calculate the RCN of the buildings using recognized estimating sourcesfor developing replacement, reproduction, and insurable value costs.In the application of the indirect method cost approach, the first step is to estimate a CRN for each improvement via the indirect (trending) methodof the cost approach. To estimate the CRN amounts, the Company applied published inflation indices62Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)obtained from third party sources to each asset’s historical cost to convert the known cost into an indication of current cost. As historical cost was used as thestarting point for estimating RCN, we only considered this approach for assets with historical records.Once the RCN and CRN of the improvements was computed, the Company estimated an allowance for physical depreciation for the buildings andland improvements based upon its respective age.Intangible AssetsThe financial information used to estimate the fair values of intangible assets was consistent with the information used in estimating the Company’senterprise value. Trademarks and tradenames were valued primarily utilizing the relief from royalty method of the income approach. The resulting value ofthe intangible assets based on the application of this approach was $520. Significant inputs and assumptions included remaining useful lives, the forecastedrevenue streams, applicable royalty rates, tax rates, and applicable discount rates. Customer relationships were considered in the analysis, but based on thevaluation under the excess earnings methodology, no value was attributed to customer relationships.DebtThe fair value of debt was $250 million of which $2.5 million represents the current portion. The fair value of debt was determined using an incomeapproach based on market yields for comparable securities. The fair value with respect to the Term Loan was estimated to approximate par value.Asset Retirement ObligationsThe fair value of the asset retirement obligations was determined by using estimated plugging and abandonment costs as of December 15, 2016, adjusted forinflation using an annual average of 1.26% and then discounted at the appropriate credit-adjusted risk free rate ranging from 2.2% to 2.9% depending on thelife of the well. The fair value of asset retirement obligations was estimated at $9.1 million.Income TaxesThe amount of deferred income taxes recorded was determined in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”).WarrantsPursuant to the Plan and on the Effective Date, the Company issued two series of warrants to the former holders of the Predecessor Company'scommon stock. One series of warrants will expire on December 15, 2020 and the other series of warrants will expire on December 15, 2021. Each warrant isexercisable for one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01. At issuance, the warrants were recorded at fair value, which was determined usingthe Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions detailed in the following table. The warrants are equity classified and, at issuance, wererecorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital in the amount of $3.8 million.Assumptions for Black-Scholes option pricing model:Volatility60.0% to 62.0%Risk-free Interest Rate1.86% to 2.10%Time Until Expiration4 years to 5 years63Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)The following fresh-start condensed consolidated balance sheet presents the implementation of the Plan and the adoption of fresh-start accountingas of December 15, 2016.

These triggeringevents required us to perform step one of the goodwill impairment test to identify potential impairment. Our step one testing indicated potential impairmentin our Coiled Tubing Services segment which required us to perform step two of the goodwill impairment test to determine the amount of impairment, if any.Our preliminary step two testing performed during the third quarter of 2015, using a discounted cash flow model to determine fair value, concluded thatcertain fixed assets were impaired. As a result, we recorded an estimated pre-tax charge of $45.0 million in the third quarter of 2015. During the fourth quarterof 2015 we finalized our step two testing, preliminarily performed in the third quarter of 2015, based on additional analysis performed by outside consultants.As a result, we recorded an additional pre-tax asset impairment charge of $6.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.71Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)NOTE 11.

In addition, we will no longer use our Edge tradename. As a result, we fully impaired the $1.5million tradename in 2015. Both the Edge tradename and Enhanced Oilfield Technology developed technology patent were part of our Fishing and RentalServices segment.We perform an analysis of goodwill impairment on an annual basis unless an event occurs that triggers additional interim testing. The decline inmarket value of our stock during the third quarter of 2015 as well as the persistent low oil prices and the affect that low oil prices have on our industry werealso determined to be triggering events making it necessary to perform testing for possible goodwill impairment for our U.S. Rig Services, Coiled TubingServices, Fishing and Rental Services, Fluid Management Services and International segments. Our analysis concluded that the remaining $561.0 million ofgoodwill of these segments was fully impaired.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONSIn connection with our well servicing activities, we operate a number of saltwater disposal (“SWD”) facilities. Our operations involve thetransportation, handling and disposal of fluids in our SWD facilities that are by-products of the drilling process. SWD facilities used in connection with ourfluid hauling operations are subject to future costs associated with the retirement of these properties. As a result, we have incurred costs associated with theproper storage and disposal of these materials.73Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)Annual accretion of the assets associated with the asset retirement obligations were $0.2 million, less than $0.1 million and $0.6 million for the yearended December 31, 2017, for the periods from December 16, 2016 through December 31, 2016 and from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 and forthe year ended December 31, 2015, respectively.

Because the variable interest rates of these loans approximate current market rates, the fair values of the loansborrowed under this facility approximate their carrying values.NOTE 15. INCOME TAXESThe U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The 2017 Tax Act is comprehensive tax reform legislationthat contains significant changes to corporate taxation. Provisions on the enacted law include a permanent reduction of the corporate income tax rate from35% to 21%, imposing a mandatory one-time tax on un-repatriated accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries, a partial limitation on the deductibility ofbusiness interest expense, a limitation on net operating losses to 80% of taxable income each year, a shift of the U.S. taxation of multinational corporationsfrom a tax on worldwide income to a partial territorial system (along with rules that create a new U.S. minimum tax on earnings of foreign subsidiaries), andother related provisions to maintain the U.S. tax base.We recognized the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which provides SEC staff guidancefor the application of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. The guidance allows for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date to finalize therecording of the related tax impacts. As such, our 2017 financial results reflect the provisional income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act for which theaccounting under ASC Topic 740 is incomplete but a reasonable estimate could be determined. We did not identify any items for which the income taxeffects of the 2017 Tax Act could not be reasonably estimated as of December 31, 2017. Due to the changes to U.S. tax laws as a result of the 2017 Tax Act,we recorded a provisional amount related to the following:74Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)Reduction of the U.S. Corporate Income Tax Rate- We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will apply in the yearsin which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Accordingly, our deferred tax assets and liabilities were re-measured to reflect the reduction in theU.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, resulting in a provisional $82.4 million income tax expense recorded. However, this change also resulted ina corresponding provisional $82.4 million income tax benefit with respect to the existing valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets asof December 31, 2017. Both offsetting provisional amounts were recorded during the fourth quarter of 2017.As we do not have all the necessary information to analyze all effects of the 2017 Tax Act, we believe the provisional amounts recorded during thefourth quarter of 2017 represent a reasonable estimate of the accounting implications of this U.S. tax reform. Our ultimate determination of the tax impactsmay differ from the provisional amounts recorded during the fourth quarter of 2017 due to regulatory guidance expected to be issued in the future, any taxlaw technical corrections, and possible changes in the our interpretations, assumptions, and actions taken as a result of tax legislation clarification. Inaddition, we are still analyzing certain aspects of the 2017 Tax Act and refining our calculations, which could potentially affect the measurement of theseprovisional balances. We will continue to evaluate the 2017 Tax Act, and any adjustment to these provisional amounts will be reported in the reportingperiod in which any such adjustments are determined, which will be no later than the fourth quarter of 2018.The components of our income tax expense are as follows (in thousands): Successor Predecessor Year EndedDecember 31, 2017 Period from December16, 2016 throughDecember 31, 2016 Period from January1, 2016 throughDecember 15, 2016 Year EndedDecember 31, 2015Current income tax (expense) benefit$1,667 $— $(2,042) $3,522Deferred income tax (expense) benefit35 — (787) 189,327Total income tax (expense) benefit$1,702 $— $(2,829) $192,849We made federal income tax payments of zero for the year ended December 31, 2017, the period from December 16, 2016 through December 31,2016, the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, respectively. In addition, we received federalincome tax refunds of zero, $0.4 million, $6.9 million and $11.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2017, the period from December 16, 2016through December 31, 2016, the period from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, respectively.75Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)Income tax (expense) benefit differs from amounts computed by applying the statutory federal rate as follows: Successor Predecessor Year EndedDecember 31, 2017 Period from December16, 2016 throughDecember 31, 2016 Period from January1, 2016 throughDecember 15, 2016 Year Ended December31, 2015Income tax benefit computed at Federal statutory rate35.0 % 35.0 % 35.0 % 35.0 %State taxes— % — % (9.1)% 1.6 %Meals and entertainment(0.4)% — % (0.3)% (0.1)%Foreign rate difference0.4 % — % (0.3)% (1.3)%Non-deductible goodwill and asset impairments— % — % (4.0)% (4.8)%Non-deductible bankruptcy costs— % — % (15.7)% — %Non-taxable cancellation of debt income— % — % 154.6 % — %Penalties and other non-deductible expenses— % — % (2.3)% — %Sale of Mexico— % — % 16.5 % — %Change in valuation allowance(33.8)% (35.0)% (171.1)% (12.9)%Equity compensation(1.0)% — % — % — %US tax reform - impact to deferred tax assets and liabilities(67.4)% — % — % — %US tax reform - change in valuation allowance67.4 % — % — % — %Other1.2 % — % (5.5)% (0.1)%Effective income tax rate1.4 % — % (2.2)% 17.4 % As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, our deferred tax assets and liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands): December 31, 2017 2016Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards$103,251 $99,636Capital loss carryforwards16,375 49,901Foreign tax credit carryforward17,095 18,587Self-insurance reserves8,734 12,576Accrued liabilities9,479 16,542Share-based compensation513 —Intangible assets52,146 93,453Other1,036 2,946Total deferred tax assets208,629 293,641Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets(175,577) (227,402)Net deferred tax assets33,052 66,239Deferred tax liabilities: Property and equipment(33,052) (64,609)Other— (1,665)Total deferred tax liabilities(33,052) (66,274)Net deferred tax asset (liability), net of valuation allowance$— $(35)The December 31, 2017 net deferred tax asset is comprised of $208.6 million deferred tax assets before valuation allowance, and $33.1 milliondeferred tax liabilities. The valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset decreased by approximately $51.8 million from December 31, 2016 toDecember 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction of the U.S. corporate income tax rate from enactment of the 2017 Tax Act.76Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset orliability and its reported amount in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities is based on enacted tax lawsand rates currently in effect in each of the jurisdictions in which we have operations.In recording deferred income tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets willbe realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income of the appropriate characterduring the periods in which those deferred income tax assets would be deductible. We consider the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities andprojected future taxable income for this determination. Due to the history of losses in recent years and the continued challenges in the oil and gas industry,management continues to believe that it is more likely than not that we will not be able to realize our net deferred tax assets, and therefore a valuationallowance remains on the net deferred tax asset balance.We estimate that as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, we have available $373.1 million, $252.8 million (after attribute reduction) and $243.8million, respectively, of federal net operating loss carryforwards. However, Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383 impose limitations on acorporation’s ability to utilize tax attributes if the corporation experiences an “ownership change.” The Company experienced an ownership change onDecember 15, 2016, as the emergence of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries from chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings is considered achange in ownership for purposes of IRC Section 382. As a result, approximately $2.4 million of our net operating losses as of December 31, 2017 are subjectto Section 382 limitation and expire in 2019 to 2020. If a subsequent ownership change were to occur as a result of future transactions in the Company’sstock, the Company’s use of remaining U.S. tax attributes may be further limited.We estimate that as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, we have available $485.6 million, $378.8 million and $258.9 million, respectively, ofstate net operating loss carryforwards that will expire between 2018 and 2037. We estimate that we have remaining capital loss carryforward of $78.0 million,as $61.2 million expired during 2017. Our remaining capital loss carryforwards will expire in 2021.We did not provide for U.S. income taxes or withholding taxes on unremitted earnings of our subsidiary in Canada, as these earnings are consideredpermanently reinvested because the cash flow generated by this business is needed to fund additional equipment and working capital requirements in thisjurisdiction. Furthermore, we did not provide for U.S. income taxes on unremitted earnings of our other foreign subsidiaries, because as of December 31,2017, the Company’s non-Canadian foreign subsidiaries had an accumulated deficit in earnings. The Company does not intend to repatriate the earnings ofits foreign subsidiaries.We file income tax returns in the U.S., including federal and various state filings, and certain foreign jurisdictions. The number of years that are openunder the statute of limitations and subject to audit varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. In 2014 the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) concluded theiraudit of our returns for the tax years ended December 31, 2010, 2011 and 2012 with no material changes. In 2015 the IRS concluded their audit of our returnsfor the tax year ended December 31, 2014 with no changes. Our other significant filings, which are in Mexico, have been examined through tax years 2010.Under the Plan, a substantial portion of the Company’s pre-petition debt securities, revolving credit facility and other obligations wereextinguished. Absent an exception, a debtor recognizes cancellation of indebtedness income (“CODI”) upon discharge of its outstanding indebtedness for anamount of consideration that is less than its adjusted issue price. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC”), provides that a debtor in abankruptcy case may exclude CODI from taxable income but must reduce certain of its tax attributes by the amount of any CODI realized as a result of theconsummation of a plan of reorganization. The amount of CODI realized by a taxpayer is the adjusted issue price of any indebtedness discharged less the sumof (i) the amount of cash paid, (ii) the issue price of any new indebtedness issued and (iii) the fair market value of any other consideration, including equity,issued. As a result of the market value of equity upon emergence from chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, the estimated amount of U.S. CODI isapproximately $295.8 million, which will reduce the value of Key’s U.S. net operating losses including federal and state that had a value of $518.8 million asof December 15, 2016. The actual reduction in tax attributes does not occur until the first day of the Company’s tax year subsequent to the date of emergence,or December 16, 2016.Uncertainty in Income TaxesAs of December 31, 2017, December 31, 2016, December 16, 2016, and December 31, 2015 we had $0.1 million, $0.4 million, $0.4 million and $0.6million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits which, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. We recognized a net tax benefit $0.3 million in2017, zero for the period ended December 31, 2016, $0.2 million for the period ended December 15, 2016, and $0.9 million in 2015 for statutes of limitationsexpiration.

We conduct business throughout the continental UnitedStates and may be subject to jury verdicts or arbitrations that result in outcomes in favor of the plaintiffs. We are also exposed to various claims abroad. Wecontinually assess our contingent liabilities, including potential litigation liabilities, as well as the adequacy of our accruals and the need for disclosure ofthese items, if any. We establish a provision for a contingent liability when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount is reasonablyestimable. As of December 31, 2017, the aggregate amount of our liabilities related to litigation that are deemed probable and reasonably estimable is $4.7million. We do not believe that the disposition of any of these matters will result in an additional loss materially in excess of amounts that have beenrecorded. Our liabilities related to litigation matters that were deemed probable and reasonably estimable as of December 31, 2016 were $5.4 million.In November 2015, the Santa Barbara County District Attorney filed a criminal complaint against two former employees and Key, specificallyalleging three counts of violations of California Labor Code section 6425(a) against Key. The complaint sought unspecified penalties against Key related toan October 12, 2013 accident which resulted in the death of one Key employee at a drilling site near Santa Maria, California. An arraignment was held onFebruary 10, 2016, where Key and its former employees pleaded not guilty to all charges.On or about January 10, 2017, Key entered into a settlement with the Santa Barbara County District Attorney. Key agreed to plead no contest to onefelony count (Count 2), a violation of California Labor Code 6425(a). The Santa Barbara County District Attorney also agreed to recommend total restitution,fines, fees, and surcharges not to exceed $450,000. The court dismissed the remaining charges (Counts 1 and 3) against Key. The parties agreed to postponesentencing in the matter until January 31, 2018. The parties agreed that if Key pays all of the total restitution, fines, fees, and surcharges by January 31, 2018,the Santa Barbara County District Attorney will not object to Key withdrawing its plea to a felony count on Count 2 and entering a plea to a misdemeanor.On January 31, 2018, the sentence was entered as a misdemeanor and the matter was concluded.Tax AuditsWe are routinely the subject of audits by tax authorities, and in the past have received material assessments from tax auditors. As of December 31,2017 and 2016, we have recorded reserves that management feels are appropriate for future potential liabilities as a result of prior audits. While we believe wehave fully reserved for these assessments, the ultimate amount of settlements can vary from our estimates.Self-Insurance ReservesWe maintain reserves for workers’ compensation and vehicle liability on our balance sheet based on our judgment and estimates using an actuarialmethod based on claims incurred. We estimate general liability claims on a case-by-case basis. We maintain insurance policies for workers’ compensation,vehicular liability and general liability claims. These insurance policies carry self-insured retention limits or deductibles on a per occurrence basis. Theretention limits or deductibles are accounted for in our accrual process for all workers’ compensation, vehicular liability and general liability claims. Thedeductibles have a $5 million maxim per vehicular liability claim and $2 million per general liability claim. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, we haverecorded $52.2 million and $58.7 million, respectively, of self-insurance reserves related to workers’ compensation, vehicular liabilities and general liabilityclaims. Partially offsetting these liabilities, we had approximately $15.1 million and $16.3 million of insurance receivables as of December 31, 2017 and2016, respectively. We believe that the liabilities we have recorded are appropriate based on the known facts and circumstances and do not expect furtherlosses materially in excess of the amounts already accrued for existing claims.Environmental Remediation LiabilitiesFor environmental reserve matters, including remediation efforts for current locations and those relating to previously-disposed properties, we recordliabilities when our remediation efforts are probable and the costs to conduct such remediation efforts can be reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2017and 2016, we have recorded $2.0 million and $3.4 million, respectively, for our environmental remediation liabilities. We believe that the liabilities we haverecorded are appropriate based on the known facts and circumstances and do not expect further losses materially in excess of the amounts already accrued.We provide performance bonds to provide financial surety assurances for the remediation and maintenance of our SWD properties to comply withenvironmental protection standards. Costs for SWD properties may be mandatory (to comply with applicable laws and regulations), in the future (required todivest or cease operations), or for optimization (to improve operations, but not for safety or regulatory compliance).82Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)NOTE 18.

SEGMENT INFORMATIONOur reportable business segments are U.S. Rig Services, Fluid Management Services, Coiled Tubing Services, Fishing and Rental Services andInternational. We also have a “Functional Support” segment associated with overhead and other costs in support of our reportable segments. Our U.S. RigServices, Fluid Management Services, Coiled Tubing Services, Fishing and Rental Services operate geographically within the United States. OurInternational segment includes our former operations in Mexico, Canada, Colombia, Ecuador, Russia, Bahrain and Oman. During the second half of 2015, weceased operations in Colombia, Ecuador and the Middle East. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we completed the sale of our business in Mexico. Wecompleted the sale of our Canadian subsidiary and Russian subsidiary in the second and third quarters of 2017, respectively. We evaluate the performance ofour segments based on gross margin measures. All inter-segment sales pricing is based on current market conditions. We aggregate services that create ourreportable segments in accordance with ASC 280, and the accounting policies for our segments are the same as those described in “Note 1. Organization andSummary of Significant Accounting Policies” above.U.S. Rig ServicesOur U.S. Rig Services include the completion of newly drilled wells, workover and recompletion of existing oil and natural gas wells, wellmaintenance, and the plugging and abandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives. We also provide specialty drilling services to oil and natural gasproducers with certain of our larger rigs that are capable of providing conventional and horizontal drilling services. Our rigs encompass various sizes andcapabilities, allowing us to service all types of oil and gas wells. Many of our rigs are outfitted with our proprietary KeyView® technology, which capturesand reports well site operating data and provides safety control systems. We believe that this technology allows our customers and our crews to better monitorwell site operations, improves efficiency and safety, and adds value to the services that we offer.The completion and recompletion services provided by our rigs prepare wells for production, whether newly drilled, or recently extended through aworkover operation. The completion process may involve selectively perforating the well casing to access production zones, stimulating and testing thesezones, and installing tubular and downhole equipment. We typically provide a well service rig and may also provide other equipment to assist in thecompletion process. Completion services vary by well and our work may take a few days to several weeks to perform, depending on the nature of thecompletion.The workover services that we provide are designed to enhance the production of existing wells and generally are more complex and timeconsuming than normal maintenance services. Workover services can include deepening or extending wellbores into new formations by drilling horizontal orlateral wellbores, sealing off depleted production zones and accessing previously bypassed production zones, converting former production wells intoinjection wells for enhanced recovery operations and conducting major subsurface repairs due to equipment failures. Workover services may last from a fewdays to several weeks, depending on the complexity of the workover.Maintenance services provided with our rig fleet are generally required throughout the life cycle of an oil or natural gas well. Examples of thesemaintenance services include routine mechanical repairs to the pumps, tubing and other equipment, removing debris and formation material from wellbores,and pulling rods and other downhole equipment from wellbores to identify86Key Energy Services, Inc. and SubsidiariesNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)and resolve production problems. Maintenance services are generally less complicated than completion and workover related services and require less time toperform.Our rig fleet is also used in the process of permanently shutting-in oil or natural gas wells that are at the end of their productive lives. Theseplugging and abandonment services generally require auxiliary equipment in addition to a well servicing rig. The demand for plugging and abandonmentservices is not significantly impacted by the demand for oil and natural gas because well operators are required by state regulations to plug wells that are nolonger productive.Fluid Management ServicesWe provide transportation and well-site storage services for various fluids utilized in connection with drilling, completions, workover andmaintenance activities. We also provide disposal services for fluids produced subsequent to well completion. These fluids are removed from the well site andtransported for disposal in SWD wells owned by us or a third party. In addition, we operate a fleet of hot oilers capable of pumping heated fluids used to clearsoluble restrictions in a wellbore. Demand and pricing for these services generally correspond to demand for our well service rigs.Coiled Tubing ServicesCoiled Tubing Services involve the use of a continuous metal pipe spooled onto a large reel which is then deployed into oil and natural gas wells toperform various applications, such as wellbore clean-outs, nitrogen jet lifts, through-tubing fishing, and formation stimulations utilizing acid and chemicaltreatments. Coiled tubing is also used for a number of horizontal well applications such as milling temporary isolation plugs that separate frac zones, andvarious other pre- and post- hydraulic fracturing well preparation services.Fishing and Rental ServicesWe offer a full line of services and rental equipment designed for use in providing drilling and workover services. Fishing services involverecovering lost or stuck equipment in the wellbore utilizing a broad array of “fishing tools.” Our rental tool inventory consists of drill pipe, tubulars,handling tools (including our patented Hydra-Walk® pipe-handling units and services), pressure-control equipment, pumps, power swivels, reversing units,foam air units. Our rental inventory also included frac stack equipment used to support hydraulic fracturing operations and the associated flowback of fracfluids, proppants, oil and natural gas. We also had provided well testing services. Our frac stack equipment well testing services were sold in the secondquarter of 2017.Demand for our Fishing and Rental Services is closely related to capital spending by oil and natural gas producers, which is generally a function ofoil and natural gas prices.InternationalOur International segment includes our former operations in Mexico, Canada, Colombia, Ecuador, Russia, Bahrain and Oman. In April 2015, weannounced our decision to exit markets in which we participate outside of North America. To this end, during the second half of 2015, we ceased operationsin Colombia, Ecuador and the Middle East. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we completed the sale of our business in Mexico, and we completed the sale ofour Canadian subsidiary and Russian subsidiary in the second and third quarters of 2017, respectively. Our services in these international markets consistedof rig-based services such as the maintenance, workover, and recompletion of existing oil wells, completion of newly-drilled wells, and plugging andabandonment of wells at the end of their useful lives. We also had a technology development and control systems business based in Canada, which wasfocused on the development of hardware and software related to oilfield service equipment controls, data acquisition and digital information flow.Functional SupportOur Functional Support segment includes unallocated overhead costs associated with administrative support for our U.S. and International

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURENone.ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURESDisclosure Controls and ProceduresWe maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosedin our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periodsspecified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure thatinformation required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to ourmanagement, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of ourdisclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered bythis report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures wereeffective as of the end of such period.Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial ReportingManagement is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financialreporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements forexternal purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies andprocedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generallyaccepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management anddirectors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets thatcould have a material effect on the financial statements.Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherentlimitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment andbreakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or improper management override.Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financialreporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because ofchanges in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. However, these inherent limitations are knownfeatures of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.A material weakness (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control overfinancial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be preventedor detected on a timely basis.Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017. In making thisassessment, management used the criteria described in 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizationsof the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as ofDecember 31, 2017.Our internal control over financial reporting has been audited by Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated intheir report included herein.Changes in Internal Control Over Financial ReportingThere were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter of 2017, that materially affected, or arereasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.ITEM 9B.

Complete copies of our Corporate Governance Guidelines,committee charters and codes of business conduct described below are available on our website at www.keyenergy.com. You can also request a copy of any ofthese documents by writing to: Investor Relations, Key Energy Services, Inc., 1301 McKinney Street, Suite 1800, Houston, Texas 77010. Our Board stronglybelieves that good corporate governance is important to ensure that Key is managed for the long-term benefit of our stockholders.Corporate Governance GuidelinesOur Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that address significant issues of corporate governance and set forth the procedures bywhich the Board carries out its responsibilities. Among the areas addressed by the Corporate Governance Guidelines are director qualifications andresponsibilities, Board committee responsibilities, director compensation and tenure, director orientation and continuing education, access to managementand independent advisors, succession planning and management development, and Board and committee performance evaluations. The nominating andgovernance committee (the97Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements“NGC”) is responsible for assessing and periodically reviewing the adequacy of these guidelines and recommending proposed changes to the Board, asappropriate. The Corporate Governance Guidelines are posted on our website at www.keyenergy.com. We will provide these guidelines in print, free ofcharge, to stockholders who request them.Director IndependenceAs stated above, because the Company currently qualifies as a “Controlled Company” under the NYSE Rule 303A we are permitted, and haveelected, to opt out of the NYSE rules that would otherwise require our Board to be comprised of a majority of independent directors and require ourcompensation committee and NGC to be comprised entirely of independent directors. However, all members of our audit committee meet the independencerequirements set forth in the rules of the NYSE and SEC and all members of our subcommittee of the compensation committee meet the independencerequirements set forth in the rules of the NYSE and SEC. Under applicable rules of the NYSE, a director will only qualify as “independent” if our Boardaffirmatively determines that he or she has no direct or indirect material relationship with Key.The Board has determined that, except for Mr. Drummond, who serves as our President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and Messrs. Norment,Kotzubei and Kelln and Ms. Sigler, each of our current directors is independent within the meaning of the foregoing rules, including Messrs. Edmiston,Vogel, Gaut, Pruett and Wommack. The Board also considered Mr. Gaut’s position as a former executive officer of Forum, one of our equipment suppliers,and determined that the relationship between Forum and Key does not affect Mr. Gaut’s independence. For additional information regarding the relationshipsof Mr. Gaut, see the discussion below under the heading “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”Board Leadership StructureOur Board consists of Mr. Norment, the Chairman, and nine other directors. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that non-employeedirectors will meet in executive session on a regular basis without management present. The Chairman presides at all meetings of the Board, as well asexecutive sessions of non-employee directors and, in consultation with the CEO, non-employee directors and management, establishes the agenda for eachBoard meeting. In the event that the non-management directors include directors who are not independent under the listing requirements of the NYSE, as iscurrently the case, our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that at least once a year, there shall be an executive session including only independentdirectors and the director who presides at these meetings (the “Lead Director”) shall be chosen by the Board based on the recommendation of the NGC. TheBoard has appointed Mr. Gaut as Lead Director. The Board has also delegated certain matters to its certain committees. Mr. Drummond, as the Company’sPresident, CEO and Director, works in concert with the rest of our Board to oversee the execution of the Company’s strategy. Director Nomination ProcessPursuant to the Plan and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, during the Initial Board Term, directors were appointed by Soter and the OtherParties, as described in “Board of Directors” above.Following the Initial Board Term, for as long as our Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, the Board will consist of nine members, five of whomwill be nominated and elected by Soter as the holder of our Series A Preferred Stock and four of whom will be nominated by the Board and elected by holdersof our common stock. Upon the cancellation of the Series A Preferred Stock, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock will no longer have the right tonominate any directors. At the first annual meeting following the cancellation of the Series A Preferred Stock, the then-current Board will nominate theirsuccessors, and the stockholders of the Company will elect the directors.The NGC is responsible for identifying individuals who are qualified to become Board members following the Initial Board Term, provided thatSoter, and not the NGC, will identify any individuals whom Soter will nominate and elect to the Board. Nominees for directorship are selected by the NGC inaccordance with the policies and principles of its charter. Although there is no formal diversity policy, our Board believes that the backgrounds andqualifications of its directors, considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow it to fulfill itsresponsibilities. Pursuant to its charter, the NGC is tasked with recommending director candidates who will assist in achieving this mix of Board membershaving diverse professional backgrounds and a broad spectrum of knowledge, experience and capability. At least once a year, the NGC will review the sizeand structure of the Board and its committees, including recommendations on Board committee structure and responsibilities.In accordance with NYSE requirements, the NGC also oversees an annual performance evaluation process for the Board, the audit committee, thecompensation committee and the NGC. In this process, anonymous responses from directors on a number of topics, including matters related to experience ofBoard and committee members, are discussed in executive sessions at Board98Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsand committee meetings. Although the effectiveness of the policy to consider diversity of director nominees has not been separately assessed, it is within thegeneral subject matter covered in the NGC’s annual assessment and review of Board and committee structure and responsibilities, as well as within the Boardand committee annual performance evaluation process.Board Role in Risk OversightThe Board’s role in the risk oversight process includes receiving regular reports from members of senior management on areas of material risk to Key,including operational, financial, legal and regulatory, and strategic and reputational risks. The full Board (or the appropriate committee in the case of risksthat are under the purview of a particular committee) receives these reports from the appropriate “risk owner” within the organization to enable it tounderstand our risk identification, risk management and risk mitigation strategies. When a committee receives the report, the chair of the relevant committeereports on the discussion to the full Board during the committee reports portion of the next Board meeting. This enables the Board and its committees tocoordinate the risk oversight role, particularly with respect to risk interrelationships. In addition, as part of its charter, the audit committee regularly reviewsand discusses with management, our internal auditors and our independent registered public accounting firm, Key’s policies relating to risk assessment andrisk management. The compensation committee also specifically reviews and discusses risks that relate to compensation policies and practices.Board Meetings and AttendanceDuring 2017, the Board held seventeen (17) meetings. Non-management directors meet regularly in executive session. Additionally, managementfrequently discusses matters with the directors on an informal basis. Each director attended, either in person or by telephone conference, at least 92% of theBoard and committee meetings held while serving as a director or committee member in 2017. The Company expects the directors to attend annual meetingsof stockholders. Pursuant to the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as amended, adopted on the Effective Date, the current Board will servefor the Initial Board Term, which commenced on the Effective Date and will conclude upon the election of directors at the 2019 annual stockholders meeting.Board CommitteesThe Board has established three standing committees: the audit committee, the compensation committee, and the NGC. Current copies of thecharters of each of these committees are posted in the “Corporate Governance” section of our website, www.keyenergy.com. The compensation committeealso has a subcommittee for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and to approve and grant awards in order for such awards to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The subcommittee consists of two directors who both qualify asindependent for NYSE purposes. The subcommittee of the compensation committee does not have a charter. Audit CommitteeThe current members of our audit committee are Messrs. Edmiston, Gaut, Pruett and Wommack. Mr. Wommack is the chair of the audit committee.The Board has determined that all of the members of the audit committee are independent under the NYSE rules, including the independence requirementscontemplated by Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. All members of the audit committee meet the financial literacy standard required by the NYSE rulesand each qualify as having accounting or related financial management expertise under the NYSE rules. In addition, as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of2002, the SEC adopted rules requiring that each public company disclose whether or not its audit committee has an “audit committee financial expert” as amember. An “audit committee financial expert” is defined as a person who, based on his or her experience, satisfies all of the following attributes:•an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements;•an ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves;•experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issuesthat are generally comparable to the breadth and level of complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by Key’s financialstatements, or experience actively supervising one or more persons engaged in such activities;•an understanding of internal control over financial reporting; and99Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements•an understanding of audit committee functions.The Board has determined that all members of the audit committee satisfy the definition of “audit committee financial expert,” and has designatedeach member of the audit committee as an “audit committee financial expert.” For more information about each audit committee member’s background andexperience, see “Board of Directors” above.Our Board has adopted a written charter for the audit committee, pursuant to which the audit committee has, among others, the following duties andresponsibilities:•appointing, evaluating, approving the services provided by and the compensation of, and assessing the independence of, our independentregistered public accounting firm;•overseeing the work of our independent registered public accounting firm, including through the receipt and consideration of certain reportsfrom such firm;•reviewing with the internal auditors and our independent registered public accounting firm the overall scope and plans for audits, and reviewingwith the independent registered public accounting firm any audit problems or difficulties and management’s response;•reviewing and discussing with management and the independent registered public accounting firm our annual and quarterly financialstatements and related disclosures;•reviewing and discussing with management and the independent registered public accounting firm our system of internal controls, financial andcritical accounting practices and policies relating to risk assessment and risk management;•reviewing the effectiveness of our system for monitoring compliance with laws and regulations; and•preparing the Audit Committee Report required by SEC rules (which is included under the heading “Report of the Audit Committee” below).During 2017, the audit committee held six (6) meetings. In addition, members of the audit committee speak regularly with our independentregistered public accounting firm and separately with the members of management to discuss any matters that the audit committee or these individualsbelieve should be discussed, including any significant issues or disagreements concerning our accounting practices or financial statements. For furtherinformation, see “Report of the Audit Committee” below.The audit committee has the authority to retain legal, accounting or other experts that it determines to be necessary or appropriate to carry out itsduties. We will provide the appropriate funding, as determined by the audit committee, for the payment of compensation to our independent registered publicaccounting firm and to any legal, accounting or other experts retained by the audit committee and for the payment of the audit committee’s ordinaryadministrative expenses necessary and appropriate for carrying out the duties of the audit committee.The audit committee charter provides that no member of the audit committee may simultaneously serve on the audit committees of more than threepublic companies (including our audit committee) unless the Board has determined that such simultaneous service would not impair his or her ability toeffectively serve on our audit committee. Currently, no member of the audit committee serves on the audit committees of more than three public companies.The charter of our audit committee can be accessed on the “Corporate Governance” section of our website, www.keyenergy.com.Compensation CommitteeOur compensation committee reviews and recommends policies relating to compensation and benefits of our executive officers and employees,including reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of chief executive officer and other executive officers,evaluating the performance of those officers in light of those goals and objectives and setting compensation of those officers based on such evaluations.During 2017, the compensation committee met seven (7) times. Because the Company currently qualifies as a “Controlled Company” under the NYSE Rule303A, we are permitted, and100Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementshave elected, to opt out of the NYSE rules that would otherwise require our compensation committee to be comprised entirely of independent directors. Thecompensation committee consists of Messrs. Kelln (chair), Kotzubei, Norment, Vogel and Wommack. The compensation committee also has a subcommitteefor purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and to approve and grant awards in order for such awards to qualify as performance-based compensationunder Section 162(m) of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The subcommittee consists of Messrs. Vogel and Wommack who both qualify asindependent for NYSE purposes. No compensation committee member participates in any of our employee compensation programs other than the KeyEnergy Services, Inc. 2016 Equity and Cash Incentive Plan.The compensation committee has responsibility for establishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence with our compensationphilosophy. Our Board has adopted a written charter for the compensation committee, pursuant to which the compensation committee has, among others, thefollowing duties and responsibilities:•reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the CEO;•evaluating the CEO’s performance in light of corporate goals and objectives and determining and approving the CEO’s compensation levelbased on this evaluation;•reviewing and approving the compensation of senior executive officers other than the CEO;•reviewing and approving any incentive-compensation plans or equity-based plans;•approving any new equity compensation plan or any material change to an existing plan where stockholder approval has not been obtained;•in consultation with management, overseeing regulatory compliance with respect to compensation matters, including overseeing Key’s policieson structuring compensation programs to preserve tax deductibility;•making recommendations to the Board with respect to any severance or similar termination payments proposed to be made to any current orformer senior executive officer or member of senior management of Key;•reviewing any potential conflicts of interest of our compensation consultant;•preparing an annual report of the compensation committee on executive compensation for inclusion in Key’s annual proxy statement or annualreport in accordance with applicable SEC rules and regulations; and•reviewing and approving the Compensation Disclosure and Analysis for inclusion in Key’s annual proxy statement or annual report inaccordance with applicable SEC rules and regulations.

Withrespect to compensation consultants retained to assist in the evaluation of director, CEO or executive officer compensation, this authority is vested solely inthe compensation committee.The charter of our compensation committee can be accessed in the “Corporate Governance” section of our website, www.keyenergy.com.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSISThis section of the Form 10-K describes and analyzes our executive compensation philosophy and program in the context of the compensation paidto our Named Executive Officers for 2017. Our Named Executive Officers and their titles during the 2017 calendar year are listed below:•Robert Drummond, President and Chief Executive Officer;•J. Marshall Dodson, our Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer;•David Brunnert, our Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer;•Scott P. Miller, our Senior Vice President, Operations Services & Chief Administrative Officer;•Katherine I. Hargis, our Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary.In this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, we first provide an executive summary of our actions and results from 2017 related to compensationof our Named Executive Officers. We next explain the factors affecting our compensation decisions, results from 2017 and changes for the 2018 executivecompensation program. We will also explain the principles that guide our compensation committee’s executive compensation decisions, including ourcompensation philosophy. We encourage you to read the entirety of the executive compensation discussion. 103Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsExecutive SummaryOverviewAs previously noted, decisions with respect to compensation for executive officers, including our chief executive officer, are made by thecompensation committee of our Board. The following discussion and analysis are focused primarily on the compensation for our executive officers during2017, with additional detail provided for our NEOs.Pay for Performance PhilosophyWe are committed to providing value to our stockholders. We believe that our executive compensation program fairly and appropriatelycompensates our executive officers. The core principle of our executive compensation philosophy is to pay for performance in ways that we believe willmotivate our executives to develop and execute strategies that deliver performance improvements over the short and long term. Accordingly, our executivecompensation program is heavily weighted toward “at-risk” performance-based compensation. We have three principal elements of total directcompensation: base salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term incentive compensation. These elements provide our compensation committeewith a platform to reinforce our pay-for-performance philosophy while addressing our business needs and goals with appropriate flexibility.Compensation PhilosophyOur compensation strategy is to ensure progress towards the successful attainment of our vision, values and business objectives by aligning theinterests of our executive officers with stockholder interests. The primary goals of our compensation program are to attract and retain the talent we need tosuccessfully manage the Company, reward exceptional organizational and individual performance improvements, and accomplish these objectives at areasonable total cost in relation to performance and market conditions.The following compensation objectives are considered in setting the compensation components for our executive officers:•Attracting and retaining key executives responsible not only for our continued growth and profitability, but also for ensuring proper corporategovernance and carrying out the goals and plans of Key;•Motivating management to enhance long-term stockholder value by aligning our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders;•Paying for performance by linking a substantial portion of management’s compensation to measurable performance, including specific financialand operating goals;•Evaluating and rating performance relative to the existing market conditions during the measurement period; and•Setting compensation and incentive levels that reflect competitive market practices.We want our executives to be motivated to achieve Key's short-term and long-term goals, without sacrificing our financial and corporate integrity intrying to achieve those goals. While an executive’s overall compensation should be strongly influenced by the achievement of specific financial targets, webelieve that an executive must be provided a degree of financial certainty and stability in his or her compensation. The design and operation of thecompensation arrangements provide the executives with incentives to engage in business activities that support the value of Key and its stockholders.Elements of Compensation The principal components of our executive compensation program are base salary, cash incentive bonuses and long-term incentive awards in theform of equity, including performance-based equity. We blend these elements in order to formulate compensation packages that provide competitive pay,reward the achievement of financial, operational and strategic objectives on a short-term and long-term basis, and align the interests of our executive officerswith those of our stockholders. We strive to hire and retain talented people who are compatible with our corporate culture and committed to our core valuesand who want to make a contribution to our mission.104Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsBase SalariesWe provide base salaries to compensate our executive officers for services performed during the fiscal year. This provides a level of financialcertainty and stability in an industry with historic volatility and cyclicality. The base salaries are designed to reflect the experience, education,responsibilities and contribution of the individual executive officers. This compensation component is initially established for each executive throughindividual negotiation, and is reflected in his or her employment agreement or offer letter, as applicable. Thereafter, salaries are reviewed annually for meritincreases based on a number of factors, both quantitative (including detailed organizational and competitive analysis performed by an independentconsultant engaged by the compensation committee) and qualitative (including the compensation committee’s perception of the executive’s experience,performance and contribution to our business objectives and corporate values). The base salaries are generally targeted to the 50th percentile for salaries ascompared to our peers (all of whom are listed below).No increases were made to any NEO salary for 2017, except for Ms. Hargis in connection with her promotion to Senior Vice President, GeneralCounsel & Secretary. Effective December 4, 2017, Ms. Hargis' base salary was increased from $275,000 to $300,000. 2017 Base SalariesName Robert Drummond$750,000J. Marshall Dodson$375,000David Brunnert$350,000Katherine I. Hargis (1)$300,000Scott P. Miller$275,000(1) Amount for Ms. Hargis reflects her salary increase from $275,000 to $300,000, effective December 4, 2017, in connection with her promotion to SeniorVice President, General Counsel & Secretary.Cash Bonus Incentive PlanThe cash bonus incentive plan is designed to pay for performance and align the interests of our executives with stockholder interests. The cashbonus incentive plan provides variable cash compensation earned only when established performance goals are achieved. It is designed to reward the planparticipants, including the NEOs, who have achieved certain corporate and executive performance objectives and have contributed to the achievement ofcertain objectives of Key.In January of 2017, the compensation committee approved a performance-based cash bonus plan for 2017, the 2017 Annual Incentive Plan (the“2017 AIP”), pursuant to which eligible employees, including each of the NEOs, were eligible to receive cash bonuses based on the achievement of certainperformance metrics, and subject to their continued employment with the Company through payout of the 2017 AIP in 2018. The 2017 AIP is a sub-planunder the Key Energy Services, Inc. 2016 Equity and Cash Incentive Plan (the “2016 ECIP”). Individual target bonuses under the 2017 AIP were based on apercentage of each eligible employee’s base salary. Performance metrics under the 2017 AIP consisted of (i) adjusted earnings before interest expense, taxes,depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA,” weighted 80%), (ii) safety performance (weighted 10%) and (iii) free cash flow (weighted 10%), asdescribed in more detail below.Adjusted EBITDA (weighted 80%). The financial target was based on Adjusted EBITDA which is defined as total revenue, less operating expenses(excluding depreciation and amortization), adjusted for non-recurring and non-cash charges as disclosed in public reporting documents. Earnout of theAdjusted EBITDA portion of the cash bonus could range between 0% and 126% of the applicable target.Safety (weighted 10%). Positive safety results are critical in this industry to ensure the safety of our people. This goal represents the improvementrequired in the safety performance index made up of 4 leading and lagging indicators including (i) the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, orOSHA, total recordable incident rate (“TRIR”) of .88, (ii) Behavioral Based Safety Observations (“BBS”) equal to 2 per week per supervisor, Total IncidentReporting/Recordable Incidents greater than 15:1 and (iv) quality incident reporting greater than 2/200,000 man hours worked. Achievement of 4 out of the4 metrics results in 100% attainment of the 10% target, achievement of 3 out of the 4 metrics results in attainment of 50% of the 10% target, and achievementof 1 or 2 out of the 4 metrics results in attainment of 0% of the 10% target. OSHA total recordable incident rates are105Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsdetermined by measuring the number of injury incidents involving our employees against the number of exposure hours worked. Incidents that areconsidered recordable include injuries resulting in a fatality, an employee missing work, an employee having to switch to “light” duty or restricted work oran employee requiring medical treatment.Free Cash Flow (weighted 10%). Cash flow management is critical. This goal measures the ability to provide accurate and signed work tickets forinvoicing in less than 12 days in order to invoice more quickly and drive down the days of sales outstanding (“DSO”). Earnout of the Free Cash Flow portionof the cash bonus could range between 0% and 100% of the applicable target.The 2017 AIP was originally divided into five measurement periods with each quarter representing 12.5% of an individual’s bonus opportunity andthe whole year actual versus the original plan representing 50%. Performance metric goals under the 2017 AIP were originally based on an average oil priceof over $54. Actual oil prices remained lower throughout the majority of 2017. In response to the continued depressed oil prices and in order to keepexecutive officers motivated to perform, in August 2017, the compensation committee determined to adjust the Adjusted EBITDA targets for the third andfourth quarters of 2017, increase the weighting of both measurement periods from 12.5% to 25% each and eliminate the annual Adjusted EBITDAmeasurement period (which originally represented 50% of an individual’s bonus opportunity). The 2017 AIP goals and related actual performance were asfollows:2017 AIP Measurements (January - March 2017 “First Performance Period”)Adjusted EBITDA (weighted 80%). The Adjusted EBITDA target for the First Performance Period was set at negative $9.75 million with no threshold.Because this goal was negative, the potential earnout was capped at 100% if actual performance was above target but still negative, with the maximumearnout of 126% possible if actual performance was positive. The Adjusted EBITDA results for the First Performance Period was negative $8.67 millionwhich exceeded the target. As discussed below, the compensation committee used negative discretion to cap Adjusted EBITDA earnings at 100% of target.Thus, the Company attained 100% of the Adjusted EBITDA target for the period.Safety (weighted 10%). The target safety goal for the First Performance Period was a corporate-wide Safety Performance Index ("SPI") of 100%. TheSPI for the First Performance Period was 75% resulting in attainment of 50% of the safety target for the period.Free Cash Flow (weighted 10%). The target Free Cash Flow goal for the First Performance Period was to provide accurate and signed work tickets forinvoicing in less than 12 days. Free Cash Flow for the First Performance Period was 15 days resulting in 0% attainment of the Free Cash Flow target for theperiod.2017 AIP Measurements (April - June 2017 “Second Performance Period”)Adjusted EBITDA (weighted 80%). The Adjusted EBITDA target for the Second Performance Period was set at $5.44 million. The Adjusted EBITDAresults for the Second Performance Period was $32,000. Of the $14.1 million targeted improvement in Adjusted EBITDA above actual First PerformancePeriod Adjusted EBITDA, the Company achieved $8.7 million. Based on this improvement, the compensation committee approved attainment of theAdjusted EBITDA target for the period at 62%, calculated by determining the extent to which earnings increased during the Second Performance Period ascompared to the First Performance Period.Safety (weighted 10%). The target safety goal for the Second Performance Period was a corporate-wide SPI of 100%. The SPI for the SecondPerformance Period was 50% resulting in attainment of 0% of the safety target for the period.Free Cash Flow (weighted 10%). The target Free Cash Flow goal for the Second Performance Period was to provide accurate and signed work ticketsfor invoicing in less than 12 days. Free Cash Flow for the Second Performance Period was 14 days resulting in 0% attainment of the Free Cash Flow target forthe period.2017 AIP Measurements (July - September 2017 “Third Performance Period”)Adjusted EBITDA (weighted 80%). The Adjusted EBITDA target was originally set at $16.1 million and adjusted to $1.62 million in August 2017.The Adjusted EBITDA results for the Third Performance Period was $1.87 million which was $0.24 million more than target. As discussed below, thecompensation committee used negative discretion to cap the Adjusted EBITDA earnings at 100% of target, which resulted in 100% attainment of theAdjusted EBITDA target for the period.106Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsSafety (weighted 10%). The target safety goal for the Third Performance Period was a corporate-wide SPI of 100%. The SPI for the Third PerformancePeriod was 50% resulting in attainment of 0% of the safety target for the period. Free Cash Flow (weighted 10%). The target Free Cash Flow goal for the Third Performance Period was to provide accurate and signed work ticketsfor invoicing in less than 12 days. Free Cash Flow for the Third Performance Period was 17 days resulting in 0% attainment of the Free Cash Flow target forthe period.2017 AIP Measurements (October - December 2017 “Fourth Performance Period”)Adjusted EBITDA (weighted 80%). The Adjusted EBITDA target was originally set at $21.7 million and adjusted to $.94 million in August 2017.The Adjusted EBITDA results for the Fourth Performance Period was $2.0 million which was $1.06 million more than target. As discussed below, thecompensation committee used negative discretion to cap Adjusted EBITDA earnings at 100% of target, which resulted in 100% attainment of the AdjustedEBITDA target for the period.Safety (weighted 10%). The target safety goal for the Fourth Performance Period was a corporate-wide SPI of 100%. The SPI for the FourthPerformance Period was 50% resulting in attainment of 0% of the safety target for the period.Free Cash Flow (weighted 10%). The target Free Cash Flow goal for the Fourth Performance Period was to provide accurate and signed work ticketsfor invoicing in less than 12 days. Free Cash Flow for the Fourth Performance Period was 17 days resulting in 0% attainment of the Free Cash Flow target forthe period.Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive CompensationThe purpose of our long-term incentive compensation is to align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders and to retain ourexecutives and other eligible employees over the long term. We want our executives to be focused on increasing stockholder value, and we use the 2016ECIP as the long-term vehicle to encourage and establish this focus.Our compensation committee may elect to grant equity-based awards under the 2016 ECIP to NEOs in connection with an employee’s initial hire,promotion and other events. The compensation committee granted option awards to certain employees, including each of the NEOs upon our emergence frombankruptcy (the "Emergence Awards"), and on December 20, 2016, the compensation committee granted additional time-based and performance-basedrestricted stock units and options to certain employees, including each of the NEOs (collectively with the Emergence Awards, the “December 2016 Awards”).On September 12, 2017, the compensation committee granted Ms. Hargis additional time-based and performance-based restricted stock units and options onthe same terms as the December 2016 Awards in connection with her promotion from Vice President, Chief Legal and Secretary to Senior Vice President,General Counsel and Secretary (the “Hargis Awards”). The December 2016 Awards and the Hargis Awards are hereby referred to as the 2016 Awards.On November 29, 2017, the compensation committee approved certain modifications to the 2016 Awards, which were determined to be appropriateand necessary for retention and incentive purposes. The compensation committee confirmed that the first tranche of the 2016 Awards, including both time-based awards and performance-based awards, would vest as scheduled in December 2017 subject to the satisfaction of the original vesting terms. Thecompensation committee also approved providing each holder of 2016 Awards with the option to either (i) continue to hold the remainder of their 2016Awards that did not vest in December 2017 pursuant to their original terms, or (ii) forfeit the remainder of their 2016 Awards in exchange for a new grantmade up of 50% time-vested restricted stock unit awards (a “Time RSU Award”) and 50% performance share awards (a “Performance RSU Award”). The TimeRSU Awards and the Performance RSU Award are collectively referred to herein as the “Replacement Awards”. Each of the NEOs determined to forfeit theremainder of their 2016 Awards and accept the Replacement Awards, and the Replacement Awards were granted on December 31, 2017.One-third of the Time RSU Awards will become vested on each anniversary of the date of grant. Upon a termination of the holder’s employment forany reason, any portion of the Time RSU Award which remains unvested will be forfeited; except that, if the holder’s employment is terminated by theCompany without “cause” (as defined in the Time RSU Award) or by the holder for “good reason” (as defined in the Time RSU Award), in each case, within12 months following a “change of control” (as defined in the Time RSU Award), then any portion of the Time RSU Award which remains unvested willbecome vested.107Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsOne-third of each Performance RSU Award will be earned based on the Adjusted EBITDA-based performance goals achieved over each of the one-year performance periods with respect to the 2018, 2019, and 2020 calendar years, and the earned portion of the entire Performance RSU Award will settlefollowing the end of the performance period with respect to the 2020 calendar year. Upon a termination of the holder’s employment for any reason, anyportion of the Performance RSU Award which remains unvested will be forfeited.2017 Compensation Results and DecisionsCash Bonus Plan Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2017For 2017, the compensation committee gave greater weight to the financial performance metrics compared to 2016 to further align management withthe shareholders. For 2017, each NEO had a bonus opportunity as a percentage of base salary as follows: Minimum Payout (%of base salary) Target Payout (% ofbase salary) Maximum Payout (%of base salary)Participant Robert Drummond0% 125% 151%J. Marshall Dodson0% 80% 97%David Brunnert0% 80% 97%Scott P. Miller0% 80% 97%Katherine I. Hargis0% 80% 97%Payment under the 2017 AIP for each NEO was determined based on achievement of each of three performance metrics for each of four quarterlyperformance periods. The performance metrics were Adjusted EBITDA (80%), Safety (10%) and Free Cash Flow (10%) with the First and Second quarterlyperformance periods each weighted 12.5% of the total 2017 AIP and the Third and Fourth Performance Periods (as adjusted in August 2017) each weighted25% of the total 2017 AIP. (As a result of the compensation committee’s adjustments in August 2017, including the elimination of the annual measurementperiod, the aggregate weighting of all measurement periods was reduced from 100% to 75%. Accordingly, the target and maximum payouts for Mr.Drummond were reduced to 94% and 113% of base salary, respectively, and the target and maximum payout for each other NEO were reduced to 60% and72% of base salary, respectively.)3 The results of these performance metrics were as follows:Adjusted EBITDA. The compensation committee determined that the Adjusted EBITDA metric would emphasize the Company’s business goals andreorganizational goals of focusing on cash management, seeking revenue growth and reducing expenses. The Adjusted EBITDA targets for the First, Second,Third and Fourth Performance Periods, as adjusted in August 2017, were ($9.8) million, $5.4 million, $1.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. ActualAdjusted EBITDA results for the First, Second, Third and Fourth Performance Periods were ($8.6) million, $32,000, $1.9 million and $2.0 million,respectively, which resulted in achievement of 70% of the target, Adjusted EBITDA goal, giving effect to the weighting of each performance period andcapping the percentage at 100% for each period.Safety. The Company achieved 6% of its total goal for 2017 which qualified for 6% payment under the 2017 AIP.Free Cash Flow. The Company achieved 0% of its total goal for 2017 which did not qualify for payment under the 2017 AIP.The compensation committee used negative discretion to cap Adjusted EBITDA earnings at 100%, reduce the actual bonus paid to the CEO by 5%and reduce the actual bonus paid to each of the other NEOs by 3%. This decision was largely driven by the understanding that overall profitability was stillnegative. Based on these results, the bonus opportunities with respect to each performance metric (as adjusted in August 2017) and the payments earned byeach NEO in 2017 under the 2017 AIP were as set forth in the tables below.

As aresult, the Company did not make any annual grants of equity awards to the NEOs in 2017 for 2017 performance. However, the Company made additionalgrants of equity awards to Ms. Hargis in September 2017 in connection with her promotion to Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary and madethe Replacement Awards as described above and below on December 31, 2017.On November 29, 2017, the compensation committee confirmed that the first tranche of the 2016 Awards would vest as scheduled in December2017, subject to the satisfaction of the original vesting terms. Accordingly, the first tranche of all outstanding 2016 Awards (including the awards granted toMs. Hargis in September 2017 in connection with her promotion) vested in December 2017.The compensation committee also determined to permit the holders of 2016 Awards to elect to forfeit the remainder of the 2016 Awards that did notvest in December 2017 in exchange for Replacement Awards consisting 50% of Time RSU Awards and 50% of Performance RSU Awards. Each of the NEOselected to forfeit the remainder of the 2016 Awards in exchange for Replacement Awards, and Replacement Awards were granted on December 31, 2017.Hargis AwardsOn September 12, 2017, in connection with her promotion to Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, Ms. Hargis received an additionalgrant of 11,848 shares of time-based restricted stock units, 11,848 shares of performance-based restricted stock units with a fair market value of $302,361based on the closing stock price of $12.76 per share on September 12,111Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements2017 and 23,696 options with a fair market value of $109,002 based on grant date Black Sholes fair valued half at $3.31 and the other half at $5.89.Replacement AwardsThe compensation committee offered each holder of 2016 Awards (including the Hargis Awards) the opportunity to elect to forfeit the remainder oftheir 2016 Awards that did not vest in December 2017 in exchange for Replacement Awards consisting 50% of Time RSU Awards and 50% of PerformanceRSU Awards.

ThePerformance RSU Awards will settle following the end of the performance period with respect to the 2020 calendar year; however, one-third of the restrictedstock units are earned based on EBITDA-based performance goals achieved over each of the one-year performance periods with respect to the 2018, 2019,and 2020 calendar years. Upon a termination of the holder’s employment for any reason, any portion of the Performance RSU Award which remains unvestedwill be forfeited. For additional information about equity grants awarded in 2017, see “Compensation of Executive Officers- Summary Compensation Table”and “-2017 Grants of Plan-Based Awards.”2018 Annual Cash Incentive PlanIn November of 2017, the compensation committee approved the 2018 Annual Incentive Plan (the “2018 AIP”), pursuant to which eligibleCompany employees, including each of the NEOs, are eligible to receive cash bonuses based upon the achievement of certain performance metrics, andsubject to their continued employment with the Company through payout of the 2018 AIP in 2019. The 2018 AIP is a sub-plan under the 2016 ECIP.Individual target bonuses under the 2018 AIP are based on a percentage of each eligible employee’s base salary, and actual bonus amounts will be earnedbetween 0% and 140% of the applicable target.Performance metrics under the 2018 AIP, and their respective weightings, are the same as under the 2017 AIP. For all executives of the Company,including each NEO, the 2018 AIP consists of a single one-year measurement period equal to 100% of an individual’s bonus opportunity.Oversight of Executive Compensation ProgramAs described above under “Corporate Governance-Board Committees-Compensation Committee,” the compensation committee is responsible forestablishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence with our compensation philosophy. The compensation committee has the sole authority toengage independent compensation consultants, who report directly to the committee, to advise and consult on compensation issues.Role of Executives in Establishing CompensationThe compensation committee makes the final determination of all compensation paid to our NEOs and is involved in all compensation decisionsaffecting our CEO. When making compensation decisions for individual executive officers, the compensation committee considers many factors, including:•the individual’s role and responsibilities, performance, tenure, and experience;•our overall performance;•individual compensation as compared to our peers;•the individual’s historical compensation, equity holdings, realized gains on past equity grants; and•comparisons to other executive officers of our Company.The compensation committee evaluates the performance of the chief executive officer and considers the evaluations of the other Named ExecutiveOfficers on an annual basis following the close of each fiscal year. Although these performance evaluations are most closely connected to the qualitativeportion of the officer’s annual incentive award, the compensation committee considers individual performance in evaluating the appropriateness of theofficer’s base salary specifically and the compensation package as a whole. However, management also plays a role in the determination of executivecompensation levels. The key members of management involved in the compensation process are the chief executive officer and the chief administrativeofficer. Management proposes certain corporate safety and individual executive performance objectives based on the following year’s business plan, which isapproved by the Board each year. Management also participates in the discussion of peer companies to be used to benchmark NEO compensation, andrecommends the overall funding level for cash bonuses and equity incentive awards. The compensation committee meets regularly in executive sessionwithout management present.The Role of our Compensation ConsultantThe compensation committee has sole authority over the selection, use, and retention of any compensation consultant or any other experts engagedto assist the compensation committee in discharging its responsibilities. In 2017, the compensation committee engaged Longnecker & Associates to assistwith its overall compensation review and decision- making. In late 2017, Longnecker conducted an independent, comprehensive, broad-based analysis of ourexecutive compensation program, and the compensation committee used this analysis as one of several reference points in making decisions regarding 2018compensation. Longnecker’s objectives were to:113Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements•Review the total direct compensation (base salary, annual incentives, and long-term incentives) for the NEOs;•Assess the competitiveness of executive compensation, based on revenue size, asset size, enterprise value and market capitalization, ascompared to the peer group and published survey companies in the energy services industry; and•Provide conclusions and recommend considerations for total direct compensation.Longnecker performed services solely on behalf of the compensation committee. In accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and theNYSE, the compensation committee assessed the independence of Longnecker and concluded that no conflicts of interest exist that would preventLongnecker from providing independent and objective advice.Longnecker also provides guidance on industry best practices. This information assists us in developing and implementing compensation programsgenerally competitive with those of other companies in our industry and other companies with which we generally compete for executive talent. Thecompensation committee reviews salary ranges for all senior executive positions annually.Longnecker tailored its recommendations to (i) balance external market data, (ii) reflect our internal environment to ensure fiscal responsibility, and(iii) address potential retention concerns. Specifically, Longnecker evaluated the total direct compensation of the senior executives, assessed thecompetitiveness of our executive compensation and analyzed other factors such as cost of management, pay versus total stockholder return performance, mixof pay, peer annual incentive targets and mix of peer long-term incentive awards.The companies used for the executive compensation comparisons in November 2017 included the following:Basic Energy Services, Inc.Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc.C & J Energy Services, Inc.Pioneer Energy Services Corp.Exterran CorporationRPC, Inc.Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc.Superior Energy Services, Inc.Oceaneering International, Inc. Based on its review of the compensation program in 2017, Longnecker recommended to the compensation committee that we consider the followingcompensation practices for 2018:•maintain the practice of generally aligning targeted total cash opportunity at the median, but paying above market only when performancewarrants;•use of restricted stock units and performance units for the senior executive team to continue alignment of executive and stockholder interestswith 50% of the NEO’s long-term incentive award vesting only when performance metrics are met;•consider no base salary increases;•assess the market 50th percentile for long-term incentive awards, but give consideration to the total stockholder return, as well as share usageand retention concerns.As a result of discussions with its compensation consultant, and in light of the macro-economic conditions affecting the industry and the need toretain employees critical to the operations of the Company, the compensation committee elected to issue Replacement Awards to holders of the 2016 Awards,including each of the NEOs, and certain additional critical employees.Executive Compensation Risk ManagementWe do not believe that our compensation policies and practices encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking. Historically, our compensationcommittee annually reviews and discusses risks that relate to compensation policies and practices, and considers risk management in connection withoverseeing the executive compensation program. We believe that our executive compensation program is designed with an appropriate balance of risk andreward. To achieve this balance, our program includes:•performance incentives with both financial and operational metrics that are not completely based on arithmetic formulas, but also incorporatethe exercise of negative and positive discretion and judgment;114Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements•long-term incentives that are principally based on the retention and motivation of employees through a combination of long-term incentivevehicles;•different types of equity awards, including performance-based awards, to mitigate risk that our executive officers will take actions that aredetrimental to or not in the best interest of our stockholders;•regularly benchmarking our current compensation practices, policies and pay levels with our peer group;•aligning with the market mid-point for targeted total direct compensation, such that management interests are aligned with stockholder interestswhile rewarding for exceptional performance in comparison with its peer group;•capping the maximum amounts that may be earned under our incentive compensation plans;•granting equity awards annually, with appropriate vesting periods, to encourage consistent behavior and reward long-term, sustainedperformance; and•ensuring that our executive compensation programs are overseen by a committee of independent directors, who are advised by an externalcompensation consultant.Other Components of Total CompensationThe total compensation program for our Named Executive Officers also consists of the following components:•retirement, health and welfare benefits;•limited perquisites;•discretionary bonuses; and•certain post-termination payments.Retirement, Health and Welfare BenefitsWe offer a 401(k) savings plan and health and welfare programs to all eligible employees. Under the terms of their employment agreements, theNEOs are eligible for the same broad-based benefit programs on the same basis as the rest of our employees. Our health and welfare programs include medical,pharmacy, dental, vision, life insurance and accidental death and disability. For additional information about employment agreements, see “Compensation ofExecutive Officers-Employment Agreements” below.Under the 401(k) plan, eligible employees may elect to contribute up to 100% of their eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis in accordance withthe limitations imposed under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated there under (collectively, the “Code”). Thecash amounts contributed under the 401(k) plan are held in a trust and invested among various investment funds in accordance with the directions of eachparticipant. Effective as of September 1, 2015, we suspended the matching contribution under our 401(k) plan. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31,2017, we made no employer matching contributions to the 401(k) plan.PerquisitesWe provide our NEOs with the opportunity to receive certain perquisites that we believe are reasonable and consistent with the practices of our peergroup. With respect to certain NEOs, we pay all covered out-of-pocket medical and dental expenses not otherwise covered by insurance. The NEOs receivethese reimbursements under the terms of, and subject to the limitations set forth in, our Executive Health Reimbursement Plan. These programs are intendedto promote the health and financial security of our executives. The programs are provided at competitive market levels to attract, retain and reward superiorexecutives in key positions. Perquisites did not constitute a material portion of the compensation to the NEOs for 2017. Our costs associated with providingthese benefits for NEOs in 2017 are reflected under “Compensation of Executive Officers-Perquisites” and “Employment Agreements” below.115Table of ContentsIndex to Financial StatementsSeverance Payments/Change of Control We have determined that it is appropriate to formally document the employment relationships that we have with certain executive officers of theCompany, and we have entered into employment agreements with each of our NEOs that offer severance payments and other benefits following terminationof the applicable executive officer’s employment under various scenarios, as described below. The Company believes that offering severance benefits isbeneficial in attracting and retaining key executive officers, encourages the retention of such executive officers during the pendency of a potential change ofcontrol transaction or other organizational changes within the Company and protects the Company’s interest.We have employment arrangements in place with each of the NEOs providing for severance compensation for a period of up to three years if theexecutive’s employment is terminated for a variety of reasons, including a change of control of Key. We have provided more information about thesebenefits, along with estimates of the value under various circumstances, under the heading “Compensation of Executive Officers-Payments upon Terminationor Change of Control” below.Change of control benefits are structured as “double trigger” benefits. In other words, the change of control does not itself trigger benefits. Rather,benefits are paid only if the employment of the executive is terminated during a specified period after a change of control. We believe a “double trigger”benefit maximizes stockholder value because it prevents an unintended windfall to executives in the event of a friendly change of control, while stillproviding appropriate incentives to cooperate in negotiating any change of control. In addition, these agreements avoid distractions involving executivemanagement that arise when the Board is considering possible strategic transactions involving a change of control, and assure continuity of executivemanagement and objective input to the Board when it is considering any strategic transaction. For additional information concerning our change of controlagreements, see “Compensation of Executive Officers-Payments upon Termination or Change of Control” below.Regulatory ConsiderationsThe tax and accounting consequences of utilizing various forms of compensation are considered by the compensation committee when adoptingnew or modifying existing compensation.Under Section 162(m) of the Code, publicly held corporations may not take a tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1 million paid to ourchief executive officer, and our three most highly compensated executive officers other than our chief financial officer during any fiscal year. Prior to thefederal tax reform legislation enacted in December 2017, Section 162(m) included an exception to this $1 million limit for performance-based compensationmeeting certain requirements. However, the new tax legislation removed this performance-based compensation exception. To maintain flexibility incompensating executives in a manner designed to promote varying corporate goals, the compensation committee has not adopted a policy requiring allcompensation to be deductible under Section 162(m) and the compensation committee reserves the right to grant non-deductible compensation.Accounting for Equity-Based CompensationWe account for equity-based compensation in accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation.”Compensation Committee ReportThe compensation committee reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K withour management.

The independent directors also receive an annual equity award having afair market value of $125,000 (which for 2017 was granted in the form of RSUs), and are reimbursed for travel and other expenses directly associated withKey business. Additionally, the chair of the audit committee receives an additional $20,000 per year for his service. All members of the audit committee,excluding the chair receive an additional $10,000 per year for their service. All annual director fees are paid in quarterly installments. In January 2018, thecompensation committee determined to grant an additional annual retainer to the Lead Director for his service in the amount of 676 shares of restricted stockequal to $10,000. This award was granted to Mr. Gaut on February 1, 2018 and will vest in four equal quarterly installments beginning March 31, 2018.The following table discloses the cash and equity awards earned, paid or awarded, as the case may be, to each of our independent directors duringthe fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. As a director who is also an employee, Mr. Drummond received no additional compensation for his service as adirector and, as directors who are not considered independent for NYSE purposes, Messrs. Norment, Kotzubei and Kelln and Ms. Sigler received no additionalcompensation for their services as a director; thus these directors are not included in the following table:125Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements Fees Earned or Paid inCash ($) Stock Awards ($) (1) Name Total ($)Scott D.

Christopher Gaut$135,000 $— $135,000_________________________(1)No grants were made to directors in 2017. In 2017, the compensation committee determined to grant the director’s annual equity awards relating to the2017 calendar year on January 2, 2018. Due to SEC rules regarding timing of the disclosure of equity awards, the awards relating to the 2017 calendaryear are not reflected within the table above. The January 2, 2018 grant to directors was made pursuant to the 2016 ECIP and consisted of 10,603 sharesof RSUs granted to each non-employee director that will vest in four equal quarterly installments beginning March 31, 2018. Although the annualequity awards are based on a number of shares having a fair market value of $125,000 on the grant date of the award, because fractional shares are notgranted, the amount of the award granted is slightly different than the target award amount. In addition, and as stated above, Mr. Gaut received anadditional annual retainer for his service as Lead Director in the amount of 676 shares of restricted stock equal to $10,000. This award was granted toMr. Gaut on February 1, 2018 and will vest in four equal quarterly installments beginning March 31, 2018. Because fractional shares are not granted,the amount of the award is slightly different than the target award amount. The January 2, 2018 and February 1, 2018 grants will be reflected within theDirector Compensation table for the 2018 year.Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider ParticipationThe compensation committee consists of Messrs. Kelln (chair), Kotzubei, Norment, Vogel and Wommack, all of whom are non-employee directors.None of the compensation committee members has served as an officer or employee of Key and none of Key’s executive officers has served as a member of acompensation committee or board of directors of any other entity that has an executive officer serving as a member of the Board. Because the Companycurrently qualifies as a “Controlled Company” under the NYSE Rule 303A, we are permitted, and have elected, to opt out of the NYSE rules that wouldotherwise require our compensation committee to be comprised entirely of independent directors. Both Messrs. Vogel and Wommack qualify as independentfor NYSE purposes.CEO Pay Ratio CalculationsAs required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we areproviding the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of RobertDrummond, our Chief Executive Officer (our “CEO”).For 2017, our last completed fiscal year:•The median of the annual total compensation of all employees of our Company (other than the CEO) was $56,999.82; and•The annual total compensation of our CEO, as reported in the 2017 Summary Compensation Table included above in Part III of this Form10-K, was $5,589,770.•Based on this information, for 2017 the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median of the annual total compensationof all employees was reasonably estimated to be 98.07 to 1.To identity the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees, as well as to determine the annual total compensation of our medianemployee and our CEO, we took the following steps:•We determined that, as of December 1, 2017, our employee population consisted of approximately 3009 individuals with all of theseindividuals located in the United States (as reported in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-K). This population consisted of our full-time, part-time, and temporary employees, as we do not have seasonal workers.126Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements•We identified our median employee by comparing the amount of salary or wages (including overtime pay) reflected in our payroll recordsas reported to the Internal Revenue Service on Form W-2 for 2017. We did not include the value of annual equity award grants as suchawards are not widely distributed to our employees.•After we identified our median employee, we calculated the median employee’s annual total compensation using the same methodologythat we used to determine our CEO’s total compensation for the 2017 Summary Compensation Table, resulting in annual totalcompensation of $57,105. The difference between our median employee’s salary, wages and overtime pay and the employee’s annual totalcompensation represents the estimated value of such employee’s health care benefits (estimated for the employee and such employee’seligible dependents at $105) for the 2017 year).With respect to the annual total compensation of our CEO, we used the amount reported in the “Total” column of our 2017 Summary Compensation Tableincluded in Part III of this Form 10-K.ITEM 12.

Key filed a shelf registrationstatement covering shares owned by all Rights Agreement Parties other than Soter on March 6, 2017 and the shelf registration statement was declaredeffective on April 13, 2017. On August 29, 2017, in light of the fact that the holding period prescribed by Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 hadexpired for all Rights Agreement Parties other than Soter, the Rights Agreement Parties amended the Registration Rights Agreement to terminate theCompany’s obligation to keep a registration statement continuously effective. The amendment also provided that if the safe harbor provisions of Rule 144become unavailable to any Rights Agreement Party, such that the Rights Agreement Party can no longer sell shares without limitations on volume or mannerof sale or a notice requirement, then the obligations related to filing and keeping effective a shelf registration statement will be reinstated. On September 5,2017, the Company terminated the shelf registration statement filed on March 6, 2017.To the extent Key does not have available such an effective shelf registration statement, each Rights Agreement Party that holds RegistrableSecurities will have two demand registration rights per calendar year (subject to customary blackout periods); provided that any such demand must be for anoffering of at least $12.5 million of estimated gross proceeds (taking into account130Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsthe requests of all requesting Rights Agreement Parties); provided, further, that in no event will Key be required to comply with more than one demand byany Rights Agreement Party (other than Soter, Platinum and its other affiliates) in any six-month period.Key is also required to effect underwritten offerings pursuant to shelf takedowns (if a shelf registration statement is then in effect) and demands bythe Rights Agreement Parties.

Other services performed include certainadvisory services and do not include any fees for financial information systems design and implementation.Policy for Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit FeesThe audit committee has an Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy. The policy requires the audit committee to pre-approve the auditand non-audit services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm. Under the policy,132Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statementsthe audit committee establishes the audit, audit-related, tax and all other services that have the approval of the audit committee. The term of any such pre-approval is twelve months from the date of pre-approval, unless the audit committee adopts a shorter period and so states. The audit committee willperiodically review the list of pre-approved services and will add to or subtract from the list of pre-approved services from time to time. The audit committeewill also establish annually pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for all services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm.Any proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts will require specific pre-approval by the audit committee.The audit committee has delegated to its chair the authority to pre-approve services, not previously pre-approved by the audit committee, thatinvolve aggregate payments (with respect to each such service or group of related services) of $50,000 or less. The chair will report any such pre-approval tothe audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.The policy contains procedures for a determination by the CFO that proposed services are included within the list of services that have received pre-approval of the audit committee. Proposed services that require specific approval by the audit committee must be submitted jointly by the independentregistered public accounting firm and the CFO and must include backup statements and documentation regarding the proposed services and whether theproposed services are consistent with SEC and NYSE rules on auditor independence.Report of the Audit CommitteeThe audit committee has reviewed the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 and has discussed thesefinancial statements with the Company’s management and independent registered public accounting firm.The audit committee has also received from, and discussed with, Grant Thornton LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accountingfirm, various communications that the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is required to provide to the audit committee, including thematters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1. AU section 380), as adoptedby the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T.The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm also provided the audit committee with the written disclosures required by PublicCompany Accounting Oversight Board Rule 3526 (Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence). The audit committee has discussedwith the independent registered public accounting firm their independence from Key.As set forth in the audit committee charter, it is not the responsibility of the audit committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that theCompany’s financial statements and disclosures are complete and accurate and are in accordance with GAAP and applicable laws, rules and regulations. It isfurthermore not the responsibility of the audit committee to maintain the accounting and financial reporting principles and policies and internal controls andprocedures that provide for compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations, or to plan and carry out the audit of the Company’sinternal control over financial reporting. These are the responsibilities of management, the internal auditor and the independent registered public accountingfirm.Furthermore, the members of the audit committee are not full-time employees of the Company and are not performing the functions of auditors oraccountants. As such, it is not the responsibility of the audit committee or its members to conduct “field work” or other types of auditing or accountingreviews or procedures or to set auditor independence standards. Members of the audit committee necessarily rely on the information provided to them bymanagement and the independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, the audit committee’s considerations and discussions referred to above donot assure that the audits of the Company’s financial statements and internal control over financial reporting have been carried out in accordance withgenerally accepted auditing standards, that the financial statements are presented in accordance with GAAP or that the Company’s auditors are in fact“independent.” Based on the reports and discussions described in this report, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the audit committeereferred to above and in the audit committee charter, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Directors of the Company that the audited financialstatements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.133Table of ContentsIndex to Financial Statements By the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors H.H.
