============ ============
</TABLE>
In the second quarter of 1999, the Company revised its annual effective
tax rate from 38% to 35% primarily to reflect an expected increase in foreign
sales corporation benefit on its federal income taxes. The effect of the
change in the estimated annual effective tax rate was to decrease income tax
expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 by $222,688.
5. BANK BORROWINGS
As of June 30, 1999, the Company had drawn $4,959,000 under its Secured
Revolving Credit Agreement with a bank at a weighted-average interest rate of
7.92%.
6. COMMITMENT
The Company initiated production in June 1999 on one of two production
lines in its new manufacturing facility in McIntyre, Georgia. As of June 30,
1999, capital expenditures for the plant totaled $57.7 million, including $1.0
million in construction in progress. The Company estimates that it will spend
an additional $1.2 million to complete the facility and expects the second
production line to be fully operational in the fourth quarter of this year.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended June 30, 1999
REVENUES. Revenues for the second quarter 1999 were $15.4 million, a decrease
of 35% from the second quarter 1998. The decrease was due to a 28% reduction
in sales volume and a decrease in the average selling price of high-strength
products (CARBOHSP-TM- and CARBOPROP-Registered Trademark-) due to competitive
pressures. Domestic sales volume decreased by 32% from the previous year due
to decreased drilling activity. Export sales volume decreased by 21% with a
significant reduction of sales into Canada due to inclement weather that
persisted throughout the quarter.
In North America, the majority of the Company's sales are for use in the
stimulation of production in natural gas wells. As a result, sales of the
Company's products are significantly influenced by the level of natural gas
drilling activity in the region. Natural gas prices decreased approximately
two percent from the second quarter 1998, and the number of rigs drilling for
natural gas in the U.S. was 33% lower than the same period a year earlier. The
number of rigs drilling for natural gas in the U.S. averaged 560 in 1998 and
fell as low as 362 in April 1999. After reaching this low point, the number of
gas rigs increased steadily throughout the remainder of the quarter, ending the
quarter at 453. Management believes that if this increase in gas drilling
activity continues, it will result in increased sales volume of the Company's
products during the remainder of 1999. Management further believes that the
long-term worldwide demand for natural gas will continue to increase due to the
abundance, relatively low cost and environmental benefits of natural gas as a
source of energy and that this will result in increased demand for the
Company's products.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the quarter was $7.0 million or 45% of
revenues as compared to $11.9 million or 50% of revenues for the second
quarter 1998. The decrease in gross profit was due to decreased sales volume,
the price reduction on high-strength products and increased manufacturing
costs at both the New Iberia, Louisiana and Eufaula, Alabama manufacturing
facilities which operated at less than full capacity during the quarter. The
New Iberia facility's performance also was adversely affected by a major
maintenance shutdown during parts of May and June. Production was also
reduced at the Eufaula facility near the end of the second quarter to reduce
inventory levels. These increased costs were partially offset by a reduction
in the freight costs of transporting product from the manufacturing facilities
to remote storage facilities. This freight cost improvement is primarily
attributable to an improvement in rail service which had been adversely
affected in the prior year by the merger of the Southern Pacific and Union
Pacific railroads.
Gross profit and gross profit margins will be adversely affected over the next
several months as the new production facility in McIntyre, Georgia operates at
less than full capacity during its start-up phase. The Company will incur
additional depreciation of approximately $1.0 million per quarter on the new
facility.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES (SG&A). SG&A expenses were $3.3
million for the second quarter 1999 and $2.3 million for the corresponding
period of 1998. Expenses as a percentage of revenues increased from 10% in
the second quarter 1998 to 21.6% for the same period of 1999. The increased
costs were due to higher than anticipated start-up costs for the McIntyre
facility, increased legal expenses, the write-off of the remaining portion of
receivables due from Fracmaster, Ltd. and research and development expenses
related to production trials for the development of non-oilfield products.
Six Months Ended June 30, 1999
REVENUES. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were $35.5 million,
a decrease of 23 percent from the same period in 1998. The decrease was due
to an 18% reduction in sales volume and price reductions brought on by
competitive pressures. Domestic sales volume decreased by 23% and export
volume by 7% compared to the comparable period in 1998.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $17.0
million or 48% of revenues compared to $23.4 million or 50% of revenues for
the same period in 1998. The decrease was due to decreased sales volume,
decreased selling prices and increased manufacturing costs at all of the
company's manufacturing
8
<PAGE>
facilities. These costs were partially offset by lower freight costs of
transporting product from manufacturing facilities to remote storage
facilities.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES (SG&A). SG&A expenses were $6.9
million or 19.4% of revenues for the first six months of 1999 compared to $4.9
million or 10.5% of revenues for the same period of 1998. The increased costs
were due to start-up costs for the McIntyre facility, legal expenses, the
write-off of Fracmaster, Ltd. receivables and research and development
expenses related to non-oilfield product manufacturing trials.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.0 million as of June 30, 1999, an
increase of $0.4 million from December 31, 1998. The increase in cash and cash
equivalents was due to cash generated from operations of $8.7 million, net
borrowings against the Company's line of credit of $5.0 million, net of
capital spending of $11.1 million and cash dividends of $2.2 million. Total
borrowings under the Company's line of credit as of June 30, 1999 were $5.0
million.
Capital spending of $11.1 million during the first six months of 1999 included
$9.6 million related to continuing construction of a new manufacturing
facility in McIntyre, Georgia. Production at the new facility began in early
June. The Company plans to spend an additional $1.2 million for the completion
of the new facility. Funding is expected to be provided by existing cash
balances and cash generated from operations. The Company believes that
existing cash balances, cash generated from operations and, if necessary,
additional borrowing under its line of credit will be sufficient to fund its
operations, dividends and capital spending requirements through 1999.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
Many currently installed computer systems and software products are coded to
accept, store or report only two digit entries in date code fields. Beginning
in the Year 2000, these date code fields will need to accept four digit
entries to distinguish 21st century dates from 20th century dates. This is
the "Year 2000 Issue". As a result, computer systems and software used by
many companies will need to be upgraded to comply with Year 2000 requirements.
The Company could be impacted by year 2000 Issues occurring in its own
infrastructure or faced by its major suppliers, customers, vendors and
financial service organizations. Such Year 2000 Issues could include
information errors, significant information system failures, or failures of
equipment, vendors, suppliers or customers. Any disruption in the Company's
operations as a result of Year 2000 Issues, whether by the Company or a third
party, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
The Company has determined that it will be required to modify or replace some
of its software and certain hardware so that the Company's systems will
properly recognize dates beyond December 31, 1999. The Company presently
believes that with modifications or replacement of existing software and
certain hardware, the Year 2000 Issue can be mitigated but that if such
modifications and replacements are not made, or are not completed timely, the
Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the Company.
The Company will utilize both internal and external resources to test and
reprogram, replace, or upgrade its software and operating equipment for the
Year 2000 modifications. The total cost of the Year 2000 project was
originally estimated at $106,000 with funding to be provided through operating
cash flows. To date, the Company has incurred approximately $25,000 of these
anticipated expenditures, all of which were for new hardware and software
systems, which were capitalized. Most projects have been completed and only
limited further expenditures are expected.
The Company's plan to resolve the Year 2000 Issue involves the following four
phases: assessment, remediation, testing, and implementation. To date, the
Company has fully completed its assessment of all systems that could be
significantly affected by the Year 2000. The completed assessment indicated
that some of the Company's significant information technology systems could be
affected. However, the major administrative systems (including the general
ledger, billing, and inventory systems) have already been replaced by a Year
2000 compliant system. The assessment also indicated that software and
hardware (embedded chips) used in production and manufacturing systems
(hereafter also referred to as operating equipment) could also be at risk.
9
<PAGE>
Based on a review of its product line, the Company has determined that all of
the products it has sold and will continue to sell are inert and do not
require remediation to be Year 2000 compliant. Accordingly, the Company does
not believe that the Year 2000 presents a material exposure as it relates to
the Company's products. The Company has gathered information about the Year
2000 compliance status of its significant suppliers and subcontractors and
will continue to monitor their compliance.
To date, the Company has completed approximately 97 percent of the remediation
phase for its information technology systems and has completed all anticipated
software replacement. The Company has completed 95 percent of its testing and
has implemented 95 percent of its Year 2000 compliant systems. Completion of
the testing phase for all significant systems is expected by August 31, 1999,
with all remediated systems expected to be fully implemented by September 30,
1999.
The remediation of operating equipment is significantly less difficult than
the remediation of the information technology systems because there are
minimal automated systems in the manufacturing process. The Company is 100
percent complete in the remediation phase of its operating equipment and has
completed testing and implementation.
Currently, the Company has no direct interfaces with third parties. The
Company has surveyed its significant suppliers and subcontractors (external
agents). To date, the Company is not aware of any external agent with a Year
2000 issue that would materially impact the Company's results of operations,
liquidity, or capital resources. However, the Company has no means of
ensuring that external agents will be Year 2000 ready. The inability of
external agents to complete their Year 2000 resolution process in a timely
fashion could materially impact the Company, although the effect of non-
compliance by external agents is not determinable.
Management of the Company believes it has an effective program in place to
resolve the Year 2000 issue in a timely manner. As noted above, the Company
has not yet completed all necessary phases of the Year 2000 program. In the
event that the Company does not complete any additional phases, the Company
could be unable to manufacture some products. In addition, disruptions in the
economy generally resulting from Year 2000 issues could also materially
adversely affect the Company. The amount of potential liability and lost
revenue cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
The Company has contingency plans for certain critical applications and is
working on such plans for others. These contingency plans involve, among
other actions, manual workarounds, increasing inventories, and adjusting
staffing strategies.
