Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

As previously reported, on November 11, 2004, our wholly owned indirect subsidiary, Pioneer Drilling Services, Ltd.,  entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement providing for the acquisition of seven mechanical land drilling rigs and related assets, including trucks, trailers, vehicles, spare drill pipe and yard equipment, from Wolverine Drilling, Inc., a company headquartered in Kenmare, North Dakota.  We completed the acquisition of those assets on November 30, 2004.

 

We paid total consideration of $28,000,000 in cash for the Wolverine assets and the non-competition agreements entered into with Robert S. Blackford and Robert Mau, being all of the stockholders of Wolverine.  We also assumed various contracts and other liabilities of Wolverine.  In addition, Mr. Blackford signed an employment agreement with us for a primary term of two years.  We funded the payment of the $28,000,000 consideration with a borrowing under the acquisition facility provided by our new credit agreement with Frost National Bank, the Bank of Scotland and Zions First National Bank.

 

As part of the transaction, we also acquired an approximately 4.73-acre tract of real property which was owned by Wolverine and located in Kenmare, North Dakota. We are using this property for our North Dakota division rig maintenance and storage yard.

 

Prior to entering into the Asset Purchase Agreement, no material relationship existed between us and either Wolverine or any of its affiliates, directors or officers.

 

The information set forth above is qualified by reference to the full text of the Asset Purchase Agreement, a copy of which we filed as an exhibit to this report and are incorporating into this Item by this reference.

 

We have attached, as Attachment A to this report, the audited financial statements of Wolverine Drilling, Inc. as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003, and the unaudited financial statements of Wolverine Drilling, Inc as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

 

We have attached, as Attachment B to this report, pro forma financial statements, which combine the operations of Pioneer Drilling Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and Wolverine Drilling, Inc.  The combined pro forma financial statements include a combined pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2004 and combined pro forma statements of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the year ended March 31, 2004. The accompanying notes to the combined pro forma financial statements reflect pro forma adjustments to remove, from the September 30, 2004 combined pro forma balance sheet, assets of Wolverine which were not acquired and the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired.  The notes also reflect pro forma adjustments to the combined pro forma statements of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the year ended March 31, 2004, which assume that the acquisition had occurred on April 1, 2003.  Adjustments were made to increase interest and depreciation expense and adjust income tax expense/benefit for the effect of the other pro forma adjustments.

 

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this report to “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Pioneer Drilling Company and its subsidiaries, collectively.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

To the Board of Directors

Wolverine Drilling, Inc.

Kenmare, North Dakota   58746

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Wolverine Drilling, Inc. (an S Corporation) as of December 31, 2003, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wolverine Drilling, Inc. as of December 31, 2003, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplementary information included in the accompanying pages 12 through 13 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.  The supplementary information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

WOLVERINE DRILLING, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003

 

NOTE 1 -        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of operations - Wolverine Drilling, Inc. is a contract drilling company that specializes in oil and gas wells.  The principal markets are oil and gas companies that are developing oil and gas prospects in western North Dakota, Montana and Colorado.

 

Revenue and cost recognition – The Company earns revenues under daywork and turnkey contracts.  Daywork contract revenues are recognized for the days completed based on the day rate each contract specifies.  Revenues from turnkey contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method based on management’s estimate of the number of days to complete each well.  Turnkey contracts are usually completed in less than 60 days.

 

The estimated costs on turnkey contracts are accrued based on management’s estimate of the total cost to complete the contract divided by the estimated number of days to complete the contract.  The significant components of contract costs include salaries and benefits, supplies, repairs and maintenance, subcontractors, operating overhead and depreciation.  General and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred.  Management reviews the status of contracts in progress and revises the contract revenues and costs for changes or conditions unforeseen at the contract’s inception.  If a loss on a contract in progress is anticipated, the entire estimated loss is accrued.

 

The asset “contract drilling in progress” represents revenues that have been recognized in excess of amounts billed on contracts in progress.

 

Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash flows, all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered as cash equivalents.

 

Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis.  Interest is not charged on trade receivables.  Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions.  Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.  A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days.

 

Prepaid expenses - Prepaid expenses include items such as insurance and prepaid contract costs.  The prepaid expenses are recognized as an operating expense in the period they benefit.

 

SEE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

Equipment and vehicles are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation using straight-line methods.  The estimated lives used to compute depreciation are as follows:

 

Equipment

 

5 – 15 years

Vehicles

 

5 years

 

Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Material estimates that are susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to the recognition of revenues and costs on turnkey contracts and the estimate for depreciation.

 

Advertising - Advertising costs, which were expensed as incurred totaled $22,722 for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

NOTE 2 -        PREPAID EXPENSES

 

Prepaid expenses as of the year ended December 31, 2003, consisted of the following:

NOTE 6 -        INCOME TAXES

 

Wolverine Drilling, Inc. is an S-Corporation and as such is not a tax paying entity for federal and state income tax purposes.  Income from the Company is passed through to the stockholders and taxed at the individual level.  Therefore, no provision or liability for federal and state income taxes is reflected in the financial statements.

As of December 31, 2003, the Company had signed drilling contracts of approximately $2,135,000.  Drilling on these contracts is expected to start and be completed in the first quarter of 2004.

 

NOTE 8 -        CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE

 

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company elected to change the estimated depreciable lives for financial reporting purposes for various drilling equipment.  The Company believes the new estimated lives more closely reflect the economic service potential of the various drilling equipment.  The impact of this change in estimate resulted in increasing 2003 net earnings by approximately $552,000.

WOLVERINE DRILLING, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2004

 

NOTE 1 -        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of operations - Wolverine Drilling, Inc. is a contract drilling company that specializes in oil and gas wells.  The principal markets are oil and gas companies that are developing oil and gas prospects in western North Dakota, Montana and Colorado.

 

Revenue and cost recognition  - The Company earns revenues under daywork and turnkey contracts.  Daywork contract revenues are recognized for the days completed based on the day rate each contract specifies.  Revenues from turnkey contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method based on management’s estimate of the number of days to complete each well.  Turnkey contracts are usually completed in less than 60 days.

 

The estimated costs on turnkey contracts are accrued based on management’s estimate of the total cost to complete the contract divided by the estimated number of days to complete the contract.  The significant components of contract costs include salaries and benefits, supplies, repairs and maintenance, subcontractors, operating overhead and depreciation.  General and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred.  Management reviews the status of contracts in progress and revises the contract revenues and costs for changes of conditions unforeseen at the contract’s inception.  If a loss on a contract in progress is anticipated, the entire estimated loss is accrued.

 

The asset “contract drilling in progress” represents revenues that have been recognized in excess of amounts billed on contracts in progress.

 

Cash and cash equivalents – For purposes of the statement of cash flows, all highly liquid debt investments purchased with maturity of three months or less are considered as cash equivalents.

 

Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis.  Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions.  Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.  A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days.

 

Prepaid expenses – Prepaid expenses include items such as insurance and prepaid contract costs.  The prepaid expenses are recognized as an operating expense in the period they benefit.

 

SEE ACCOUNTANT’S COMPILATION REPORT

Equipment and vehicles are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation using straight-line methods.  The estimated lives used to compute depreciation are as follows:

 

Equipment

 

5 – 15 years

Vehicles

 

5 years

 

Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Material estimates that are susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to the recognition of revenues and costs on turnkey contracts and the estimate for depreciation.

 

Advertising - Advertising costs which were expensed as incurred totaled $13,464 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.

 

NOTE 2 –       PREPAID EXPENSES

 

Prepaid expenses as of the nine months ended September 30, 2004, consisted of the following:

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements

Pro Forma Adjustments to Combined Financial Statements

 

The accompanying combined pro forma financial statements combine the operations of Pioneer Drilling  Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and Wolverine Drilling, Inc. The combined pro forma financial statements include a combined pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2004 and combined pro forma  statements of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and the year ended March 31, 2004. The following notes reflect adjustments to remove, from the September 30, 2004 combined balance sheets, assets of Wolverine which were not acquired, as well as liabilities which were not assumed, and to record the allocation of our purchase price to the assets acquired. The notes also include adjustments to the combined pro forma statements of operations  for the six months ended September 30, 2004 and year ended March 31, 2004, which assumes that the acquisition had occurred on April 1, 2003. Adjustments were made to increase interest and depreciation expense, reduce general and administrative expense and adjust income tax expense/benefit for the effect of the other pro forma adjustments.

 

A.    To reflect Pioneer’s incurring of $28,000,000 of debt to fund the acquisition of the drilling assets of Wolverine Drilling, Inc. (“Wolverine”).  The $28,000,000 was provided by bank lenders and is due in equal monthly installments of $388,889 plus interest payable monthly at prime (4.75 % at September 30, 2004) for 36 months, with the unpaid balance due at the end of 36 months.           

 

B.    To reflect the purchase of the drilling assets of Wolverine for $28,000,000 cash.           

 

C.    To remove historical basis of assets not acquired and the liabilities and capital accounts of Wolverine.

 

D.    To reflect the increase in amortization of intangible assets due to non-compete agreements and customer lists:
