Explanatory Note

On April 14, 2015, Parker Drilling Company (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (“Initial Form 8-K”) announcing that it had completed a business review and as a result had aligned its reportable segments with its two core business lines, Rental Tools Services and Drilling Services, and its current internal organizational structure. The Company provided as Exhibit 99.2 revised versions of Items 1, 2 and 7 of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (“2014 10-K”) reflecting such change in reporting segments.
This Amendment No. 1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K (“Amendment No. 1”) is being filed by the Company to amend the Initial Form 8-K to update certain information contained in Items 1, 2 and 7 of Exhibit 99.2 thereof, and to provide under Item 8 of Exhibit 99.2 the Company’s financial statements as recast to reflect only the Company’s change in segment reporting. The recast financial statements reflect only the changes associated with the presentation of segment reporting. All other information contained in Item 8 of the 2014 10-K remains unchanged. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the 2014 10-K.
Item 8.01    Other Events
Parker Drilling Company (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) has completed a business review and as a result has aligned its reportable segments with its two core business lines, Rental Tools Services and Drilling Services, and its current internal organizational structure. The Company will continue to report its Rental Tools Services business as one reportable segment (Rental Tools); however, effective with the first quarter of 2015, the Company will report its Drilling Services business as two segments: (1) U.S. (Lower 48) Drilling, and (2) International & Alaska Drilling. The U.S. (Lower 48) Drilling reportable segment is comprised of U.S. Barge Drilling, which was previously a reportable segment, and U.S. (Lower 48) based O&M work, which was previously included in our U.S. Drilling reportable segment. The International & Alaska Drilling reportable segment is comprised of International Drilling, which was previously a reportable segment, and Alaska Drilling operations, which was previously included in our U.S. Drilling reportable segment. The Technical Services business will no longer be a reportable segment, but will be reported in the Drilling Services reportable segment benefiting from the support service activities. Historically, these activities have supported the businesses now comprising the International & Alaska Drilling reportable segment.
Item 9.01    Financial Statements and Exhibits
This Amendment No.1 amends and restates the Initial Form 8-K in its entirety. For the convenience of the reader, only the following items of Exhibit 99.2 of the Initial Form 8-K have been amended:
Part I. Item 1. Business
Part I. Item 2. Properties
Part II. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
