ITEM 7.    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.


     (b)   Supplemental Consolidated Financial Statements.

           The supplemental consolidated financial statements of Patterson
      Energy, Inc. and Subsidiaries listed below have been prepared to give
      retroactive effect to the merger with Tucker Drilling Company, Inc. which
      has been accounted for by the pooling of interests method of accounting
      as described in Notes 1 and 2 to the supplemental consolidated financial
      statements.  The supplemental consolidated balance sheets are as of
      December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the related supplemental consolidated
      statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows are for each
      of the three years ended December 31, 1995.  Supplemental consolidated
      financial statements as of June 30, 1996 and for each of the six months
      ended June 30, 1995 and 1996 have been prepared by management of the
      Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
      Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote
      disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
      accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
      omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company
      believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
      presented not misleading.  The supplemental consolidated interim
      financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
      aforementioned audited supplemental consolidated financial statements
      as of December 31, 1994 and 1995 and for the respective periods ended
      December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995.  In the opinion of management, all
      adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered
      necessary for presentation have been included.  Furthermore, the results
      of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
      indicative of the results expected for the full year.  Generally accepted
      accounting principles proscribe giving effect to a consummated business
      combination accounted for by the pooling of interests method of
      accounting in financial statements that do not include the date of
      consummation.  These financial statements do not extend through the date
      of consummation; however, they will become the historical consolidated
      financial statements of the Company after financial statements covering
      the date of consummation of the business combination are issued.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Patterson Energy, Inc.

     We have audited the supplemental consolidated balance sheets of Patterson
Energy, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 1994 and 1995,
and the related supplemental consolidated statements of income, stockholders'
equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1995.  These supplemental consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  We did not audit
the financial statements of Tucker Drilling Company, Inc. which financial
statements reflect 36 and 30 percent of supplemental consolidated total assets
as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and 42, 41 and 28 percent in
1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively of supplemental consolidated total operating
revenues.  Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose
report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for Tucker Drilling Company, Inc., is based solely on the
report of the other auditors.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  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 audits and the report of other
auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     The supplemental consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect
to the merger of Patterson Energy, Inc. and Tucker Drilling Company, Inc. on
July 30, 1996, which has been accounted for as a pooling of interests as
described in Notes 1 and 2 to the supplemental consolidated financial
statements.  Generally accepted accounting principles proscribe giving effect
to a consummated business combination accounted for by the pooling of interests
method in financial statements that do not include the date of consummation.
These financial statements do not extend through the date of consummation;
however, they will become the historical consolidated financial statements of
Patterson Energy, Inc. and Subsidiaries after financial statements covering the
date of consummation of the business combination are issued.

     In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors,
the supplemental consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Patterson Energy, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and
the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles applicable after financial statements
are issued for a period which includes the date of consummation of the business
combination.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Tucker Drilling Company, Inc.

We have audited the balance sheets of Tucker Drilling Company, Inc. (a Delaware
corporation), as of March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of
operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the three years
ended March 31, 1996, prior to the restatement (and, therefore, are not
presented herein) for the pooling of interests as described in Notes 1 and 2 to
the supplemental consolidated financial statements of Patterson Energy, Inc.,
and Subsidiaries included in the Current Report on Form 8-KA, Amendment No. 2.
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 audits.
        
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 audits provide 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 Tucker Drilling Company, Inc.,
as of March 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the three years ended March 31, 1996, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                    PATTERSON ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
            NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies follows:

     Basis of presentation  -  The supplemental consolidated financial
statements of Patterson Energy, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have
been prepared to give retroactive effect to the merger with Tucker Drilling
Company, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Tucker") on July 30, 1996 (the
"Consummation Date").  Generally accepted accounting principles proscribe
giving effect to a consummated business combination accounted for by the
pooling of interests method of accounting in financial statements that do not
include the date of consummation.  These financial statements do not extend
through the Consummation Date; however, they will become the historical
consolidated financial statements of Patterson Energy, Inc. after financial
statements covering the Consummation Date of the business combination are
issued.

     Principles  of  consolidation  -  The supplemental consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Patterson Energy, Inc. ("Patterson") dba
Patterson Drilling Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Patterson
Petroleum, Inc., Patterson Petroleum Trading Company, Inc. and Patterson
Drilling Programs, Inc. (collectively referred to as the "Company").  All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

     On April 19, 1996, Patterson filed a Certificate of Incorporation with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware organizing Patterson Drilling
Company ("Patterson Drilling") as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Patterson.
Patterson Drilling was formed solely for the purpose of acquiring Tucker
through a merger of Patterson Drilling with and into Tucker (the "Merger") as
discussed in Note 2.  As of June 30, 1996, no transactions had occurred
involving the operating accounts of Patterson Drilling.

     Interim financial statements  -  The supplemental consolidated financial
statements as of June 30, 1996 and for each of the six months ended June 30,
1995 and 1996 have been prepared by management of the Company, without audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although
the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading.  These supplemental consolidated interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited December 31, 1993,
1994 and 1995 supplemental consolidated financial statements.  In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for presentation have been included.  Furthermore, the
results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.

     Management estimates  -  The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.

     Drilling operations  -  The Company follows the percentage-of-completion
method of accounting for day work and footage drilling arrangements.  Under
this method all drilling revenues, direct costs and appropriate portions of
indirect costs, related to the contracts in progress, are recognized as
contract drilling services are performed.

     The Company follows the completed contract method of accounting for
turnkey drilling arrangements.  Under this method, all drilling  advances,
direct  costs  and appropriate portions of indirect costs (including
maintenance, repairs and depreciation) related to the contracts in progress are
deferred and recognized as revenues and expenses in the period the contracts
are completed.

     Provision for losses is made on incomplete contracts when significant
losses are anticipated.

     Equipment  inventory  -  Equipment  inventory  consists  primarily  of
equipment  to  be  used   in conjunction with the Company's contract drilling
activities.  The  inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is
determined by the first-in, first-out method.

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

     Undeveloped oil and gas properties held for resale  -  Undeveloped oil and
gas properties held for resale represent leasehold interests in unproven oil
and gas properties which the Company expects to sell.  Also included are
leasehold costs programmed for development under arrangements which will
provide for reimbursement of such costs to the Company.  Such properties are
carried at lower of cost or net realizable value.  The Company recognizes gains
or losses upon disposition or impairment of the properties. For the years ended
December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, the Company recorded impairment of
undeveloped properties of approximately $287,000, $313,000 and $56,000,
respectively.

     Property and equipment -

     (a)  Property and equipment (other than oil and gas) - Depreciation of
property and equipment (other than oil and gas properties) is provided on the
straight-line method  over their estimated useful lives as follows:


<TABLE>

                  Office furniture                 3-10       
                  Buildings                        5-20       
                  Other                            3-07       
</TABLE>

     (b)  Oil and gas properties - The Company follows the successful efforts
method of accounting, using the field as its accumulation center for
capitalized costs.  Under the successful efforts method of accounting,  costs
which  result directly in the discovery of oil and gas reserves and all
development costs are capitalized.  Exploration costs which do not result
directly in discovering oil and gas reserves are charged to expense as
incurred.  The capitalized costs, consisting of lease and well equipment, lease
acquisition costs and intangible development costs are depreciated, depleted
and amortized on the unit-of-production method, based on petroleum engineer
estimates of recoverable proved developed  oil and  gas reserves of each
respective field.  In addition, net capitalized costs are subject to a periodic
ceiling limitation.  Such costs are limited to the undiscounted future net
revenues from proved oil and gas properties, using period end costs and prices,
after considering potential future income tax effects.  There were no charges
relating to ceiling limitations during the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994
and 1995.

     (c)  Maintenance and repairs - Maintenance and repairs are charged against
operations.  Renewals and betterments which extend the life or improve existing
properties  are capitalized.

     (d)  Retirements - Upon disposition or retirement of property and
equipment (other than oil and gas properties), the cost and related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and the gain or loss thereon, if
any, is credited or charged to income.

     The Company recognizes the gain or loss on the sale of either a part of a
proved oil and gas property or of an entire proved oil and gas property
constituting a part of a field upon the sale or other disposition of such. The
unamortized cost of the property or group of properties, a part of which was
sold or otherwise disposed of, is apportioned to the interest sold and the
interest retained on the basis of the fair value of those interests.

     Income per common share  -  Income per common share of stock is based on
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.  Common
stock equivalents are excluded for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994
because their effect is antidilutive and included for the year ended December
31, 1995.  The average number of shares outstanding has been adjusted for all
periods to give effect to the number of shares outstanding as a result of the
mergers discussed in Notes 2 and 7.

            NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (CONTINUED)

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

     In addition, the number of shares outstanding has also been adjusted for
the year ended December 31, 1993, to give effect to the issuance of treasury
stock to existing stockholders in 1993 (see Note 7).  The dilutive effect of
this transaction was calculated using the treasury stock method.

     Income taxes  -  Income taxes are provided based on earnings reported for
financial statement purposes.  The provision for income taxes differs  from the
amounts currently payable because of temporary differences in the recognition
of certain income and expense items for financial reporting and tax reporting
purposes.

     The Company and its subsidiaries adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards  No.  109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109") effective
January 1, 1993, the beginning of its 1993 fiscal year, and did not
retroactively apply the provisions of SFAS 109 prior to that date.  SFAS 109
requires the asset and liability approach be used to account for income taxes.
Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on
the temporary differences between financial statement and tax basis of assets
and liabilities using enacted rates in  effect  for  the  year  in  which  the
differences  are  expected  to reverse.  Deferred tax assets (net of a
valuation allowance) primarily result from net operating loss carryforwards,
certain accrued but unpaid insurance losses, unpaid state income taxes,
alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards and investment tax credit
carryforwards.

     The cumulative effect as of January 1, 1993, of adopting this new
accounting  standard   was  not material to the financial position  of  the
Company.  Also,  there  was  no  material impact on  the supplemental
consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1993.

     Investment tax credits are recorded under the flow through  method as  a
reduction of the provision for income taxes.

     The Company files a consolidated Federal income tax return.

     Statement of cash flows  -  For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and
cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash on deposit and unrestricted
certificates of deposit with original maturities of less than 90 days.

     Reclassifications  -  Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1993
and 1994 supplemental consolidated financial statements in order for them to
conform with the 1995 presentation.  The reclassifications had no effect on net
income or stockholders' equity for those years.

2. MERGER AND ACQUISITIONS

     Tucker Drilling Company, Inc.  -  On April 22, 1996, as amended on May 16,
1996, the Company and Tucker executed the Agreement and Plan of Merger among
Patterson Energy, Inc., Patterson Drilling Company and Tucker Drilling Company,
Inc. (the "Merger Agreement") whereby Patterson Drilling would merge with and
into Tucker.  Tucker survives the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Patterson assuming the name of Patterson Drilling.  On July 30, 1996, the
Merger was consummated by a required approval of stockholders of both Patterson
and Tucker.

     Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of Tucker common
stock outstanding on July 30, 1996 was converted into 0.74 of a share of
Patterson common stock ("Exchange Ratio"), and all options to purchase shares
of Tucker common stock outstanding on that date became options to purchase
Patterson common stock upon the terms of the governing stock option plans and
as adjusted by the Exchange Ratio.  A total of 1,577,514 shares of Patterson
common stock was issued pursuant to the Merger and an additional 74,592 shares
of Patterson common stock was reserved for issuance under the outstanding
Tucker stock options, (which, upon consummation of the Merger, became options
to purchase Patterson common stock). The Merger was treated as a reorganization
within the meaning of Section



                                  (Continued)

2. MERGER AND ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED)

368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and was accounted for
as a pooling of interests for accounting purposes.

     Questor Drilling Corp.  -  On July 15, 1994, the Company acquired certain
assets of Questor Drilling Corp. ("Questor") a Delaware corporation
wholly-owned by Phibro Energy USA, Inc. ("Phibro"), pursuant to the terms of an
Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company and Questor, dated July 8, 1994.
The assets acquired consisted of:  (a) nine drilling rigs and related equipment
consisting primarily of 16 rig hauling trucks, and (b) a yard facility
consisting of approximately 11 acres  of  real  estate  and  improvements
located  thereon. The purchase price for the assets consisted of a cash payment
of $4,500,000 and 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01
per share.  The total value of the transaction was $6,375,000.  The purchase
price was determined through arm's-length negotiation between Questor and the
Company.  Neither Questor nor Phibro is an affiliate of the Company.  The
operating results have been included in the consolidated operating results of
the Company since the date of acquisition.

     The following summary, prepared on a pro forma basis, combines the
consolidated results of operations as if Questor had been acquired as of the
beginning of 1993, after including the impact of certain adjustments, such as
the elimination of revenues and other income and expenses attributed to the
assets not acquired from Questor, the increased interest expense on the
acquisition debt and related income tax effects.

     The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of what actually
would have occurred if the acquisition had been in effect for the entire
periods presented nor do the results give consideration for the above described
merger with Tucker.  In addition, they are not intended to be a projection of
future results and do not reflect any synergies that might be achieved from
combined operations.

3.  CASH

     Included in cash as of December 31, 1994 and 1995 was approximately
$967,000 and $1,687,000, respectively, of monthly oil and gas sales to be
distributed to revenue owners subsequent to year-end.

4.  PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consisted of the following at December 31, 1994 and
1995:

the election of CIT or Norwest, would accelerate the maturity date of the
loans.  The covenants include:

o  Maintenance on a quarterly basis of a consolidated cash flow coverage
   ratio of at least 1.5:1 (sum of net income, plus depreciation, depletion and
   amortization, less dividends paid and extraordinary items in the prior four
   quarters; divided by the sum of the current portion of long-term debt and
   capitalized lease obligations coming due in the following four quarters).

o  Maintenance on a consolidated basis of tangible net worth of at least
   $12,000,000 (CIT): $18,000,000 (Norwest).

o  Maintenance on a consolidated basis of a ratio of total liabilities to
   tangible net worth of not greater than 1.75:1.

   any business not being conducted by the Company on March 14, 1995, nor
   liquidate, dissolve or merge into any other entity.

o  The Company shall not pay, or authorize the payment of, any dividends on
   any stock, debenture or other security without the prior written consent of
   Norwest.

     The Financial Services Partnership note payable contains a covenant that
requires the Company  to maintain a minimum ratio of  "accounts receivable
trade" to  "loan  balance  outstanding"  of  1.5:1.

     Other restrictive covenants under the terms of all debt agreements require
that the underlying collateral not be subjected to impairment, sold, conveyed,
transferred, encumbered, mortgaged, pledged, assigned or hypothecated in any
manner without express written consent of the lenders.

     At  December 31, 1995, the Company was in compliance with all loan
covenants.

     Unused credit available under revolving notes payable and line-of-credit
agreements totaled $1,600,000 at December 31, 1995.  A commercial bank has
issued a letter of credit to the Company's workers' compensation insurance
carrier on behalf of the Company in the amount of $150,000.  Additionally, the
Company maintains a letter of credit in the amount of $475,000 with a bank for
the benefit of an insurance company as collateral for retrospective premiums
and retained losses which could become payable under the terms of the Company's
insurance contract which existed prior to consummation of the Merger.  The
Company pays a fee in the amount of one percent per annum on the unused
balance.  The letter of credit expires on November 30, 1996 with provision for
an indefinite number of annual extensions of the expiration date.  No amounts
have been drawn under the letter of credit.

     The Company has pledged as collateral a US Treasury bill, maturing on
November 14, 1996 with a book value of approximately $524,000 against the
letter of credit.

6.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     Commitments  -  On July 15, 1994, the Company issued 250,000 shares of
common stock as part of the purchase price of certain assets.  The terms of the
transaction included a registration rights agreement that, among other matters,
provided  in the event the holder of the shares ("Holder") still held the
shares on April 1, 1996, but prior to April 1, 1997, at the request of the
Holder, during such period, the Company would use its best efforts to arrange
for the purchase of the shares at the best available price; provided, however,
that if the price were less than $7.50 per share (before deduction of any
brokerage commission), the Company would pay to the Holder the difference
between $7.50 per share and the consideration received by the Holder (See Note
7).

     During September 1995, the Holder sold the 250,000 shares to Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company Separate Account EN ("MetLife").  At the time of the
sale to MetLife, MetLife and the Company amended and restated the registration
rights agreement  ("Amended and Restated Agreement") in its entirety.  The
Amended and Restated Agreement provides that the Company, upon written notice
from MetLife, or any transferee of the 250,000 shares, on or after February 1,
1996, shall file, at the Company's expense, a "shelf" registration statement
with the commission and keep the registration statement effective until the
earlier to occur of (i) such time as all of the registered shares have been
sold, (ii) two years from the effective date of the registration statement, or
(iii) the date on which such shares become available for a resale under Rule
144(k) of the Securities Act of 1933.  The provisions relating to the $7.50
price guarantee and the remittance to the Company of sales proceeds in excess
of $9.00 per share were eliminated.

     Supplemental executive retirement plan  -  Effective April 1, 1991 the
Tucker Drilling Company, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the
"Plan") was established for certain officers and key employees.  Pursuant to
agreements, as amended on April 22, 1996 and May 16, 1996 with related
participants of the Plan, the Company is obligated to pay each participant or,
the designated beneficiary, a lump sum at such participant's death, disability
or retirement.  The amount to be paid to each participant is equal to the
participant's vested benefit at such date limited however, to related benefits
received from underlying insurance policies as described below.  These
obligations are unsecured general liabilities of the Company.  As of December
31, 1995 there were seven participants in the Plan and benefits accrue to the
participants in equal annual amounts over ten years of service beginning April
1, 1991.  Fully vested benefits are in the aggregate approximately $1,498,000.
The estimated present value of the future benefit obligations as of April 1,
1991 will be accrued over the same ten year period as the benefits vest.  As of
December 31, 1995 approximately $237,000 has been accrued as a liability and
approximately $44,000 has been expensed.  As of December 31, 1994,
approximately $193,000 had been accrued and approximately $50,900 was expensed
under the Plan.

     The Company, through a grantor trust of which it is beneficiary, owns life
insurance policies on the participants, and an annuity from which future
premiums on the life insurance policies will be paid.  These assets are
included as other assets at a book value of approximately $568,000 and $528,000
at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

pending the negotiation of assumption reinsurance agreements.

     Contingencies - (a)  The Company's drilling and oil and gas exploration
and production operations are subject to inherent risks, including blowouts,
cratering, fire and explosions which could result in personal injury or death,
suspended drilling operations, damage to or destruction of equipment, damage to
producing formations and pollution or other environmental hazards.  As a
protection against these hazards, the Company maintains general liability
insurance coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence with a $3,000,000 aggregate and
excess liability and umbrella coverages of up to $15,000,000 per occurrence
with a $15,000,000 aggregate.  The Company believes it is adequately insured
for public liability and property damage to others with respect to its
operations.  However, such insurance may not be sufficient to protect the
Company against liability for all consequences of well disasters, extensive
fire damage or damage to the environment.  The Company also carries insurance
to cover physical damage to or loss of its rigs; however, it does not carry
insurance against loss of earnings resulting from such damage or loss.

     The Company's lenders which have a security interest in the drilling rigs
are named as loss payees on the physical damage insurance on such rigs.  The
Company has never been fined or incurred liability for pollution or other
environmental damage in connection with its operations.

     (b)  In April, 1993, a wrongful death and survivorship suit was filed
against the Company and the operator of a well in the 59th Judicial District
Court of Grayson County, Texas (Case No. 93-0721).  The suit arose out of a
drilling rig accident in Gonzales County, Texas on February 7, 1993.  An
employee of the Company died in the accident.  The survivorship action was
brought against the operator by the decedent's estate, and the wrongful death
action was brought against the Company and the operator by family members.  In
addition, another employee of the Company was injured in the accident and has
joined the suit against the operator as a plaintiff.  The Company was engaged
in drilling a horizontal well under a contract with the operator of the well
when the accident occurred.  The suit asserts, among other things, a claim for
gross  negligence   against  the  Company  and  a  claim for  negligence  and
gross  negligence  against  the operator.  The Company's defense has been
assumed by the insurance carrier under the Company's workers' compensation
policy.

     The Company has been informed by the insurance carrier that the accident
constitutes a single occurrence under the policy, subject to a $100,000
deductible.  The operator has made a claim against the Company under the
Company's drilling contract with the operator for indemnification.  The claims
against the Company and the operator have been settled, but the terms of the
settlement must be approved by the Court.  The settlement amounts are less than
the coverage available under the Company's workers' compensation policy and
general liability policy.  The Company's general liability insurance carrier
has determined that the operator's claim for indemnification against the
Company is covered by the Company's general liability policy (subject to a
$25,000 deductible), but is assessing whether the amount of the settlement
agreed to by the operator and the defense costs claimed by the operator are
reasonable.

     (c)  In March 1994, a suit was filed against the Company, Patterson
Petroleum, Inc., an employee of the Company and the operator of a well, in the
71st Judicial District Court of Harrison County, Texas (Case No. 94-0255).  The
suit arose out of a drilling rig accident in Burleson County, Texas in January
1994.  An individual died in the accident.  The action was brought on behalf of
the decedent's minor child.  Another child intervened in the suit.  The Company
was engaged in drilling a horizontal well under a contract with the  operator
of  the  well  when the accident occurred.  The suit asserted a claim for
negligence against the company and the other defendants.  The Company's and
Patterson Petroleum's defense was assumed by the insurance carrier under the
Company's general liability policy, which is subject to a $25,000 deductible.
This case has been settled within the limits of liability coverage.

6.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

     (d)  In addition, the Company is also involved in various routine
litigation incident to its business.  In the Company's opinion, none of these
proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

7.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     In January, 1993, the Company sold 97,554 shares of treasury stock to the
existing stockholders of the Company (including officers and directors) on a
proportionate share ownership basis.  The shares were sold for $0.54 per share
and the proceeds were used to retire a note payable to SSI Oil & Gas, Inc., a
company then indirectly owned by the Chairman of the Board/Chief Executive
Officer, and currently owned 50% by an affiliate of the Company's Chairman of
the Board/Chief Executive Officer and 50% by the President/Chief Operating
Officer.

     On October 19, 1993, the Company reincorporated in the State of Delaware
in a transaction pursuant to which the Company merged with and into a new
Delaware company that was formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
The new Delaware company has the authority to issue 5,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $0.01 per share and 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par
value $0.01 per share.  The Plan and Agreement of Merger provided for the
exchange of 1 share of common stock of the new Delaware company for 1.51214
shares of common stock of the Company.  The new Delaware company is the
surviving corporation, and immediately after the merger had 1,803,604 shares of
common stock issued and 1,550,000 outstanding and no shares of preferred stock
issued or outstanding.  The merger has been retroactively applied to the share
information presented in the financial statements.

     In November, 1993, the Company completed an initial public offering of
745,000 shares of common stock and 745,000 redeemable warrants at a price of
$6.75 per share of common stock and $0.25 per redeemable warrant.  Also, on
December 21, 1993, the underwriters of the Company's public offering exercised
a portion of their overallotment option to purchase 90,000 additional shares of
common stock and 111,750 additional redeemable warrants.  Net proceeds from the
offering totaled approximately $4,700,000.

     In July, 1995, the Company elected to redeem all of its outstanding
redeemable warrants (856,750) at the redemption price of $0.05 per warrant.
The redemption date was September 11, 1995 (the "Redemption Date").  Any right
to exercise a redeemable warrant terminated on September 8, 1995, the business
day immediately preceding the Redemption Date.  As of September 26, 1995, the
Company issued 426,874 shares of common stock upon the exercise of 853,748
redeemable warrants at $7.50 per share.  Of the remaining 3,002 redeemable
warrants, 2,002 were redeemed and the remaining warrants expired.  The Company
received approximately $2,995,000 from the exercise of the redeemable warrants.
The funds were included in the Company's working capital and have been used
for general corporate purposes.

     In November, 1995, the Company issued a total of 35,577 shares of common
stock to the underwriters of the Company's initial public offering pursuant to
their exercise of 75,315 redeemable warrants.  The redeemable warrants were
issued to the underwriters pursuant to the partial exercise of underwriter
warrants issued as partial compensation for their underwriting services in
connection with the initial public offering.  Total proceeds received by the
Company for the exercise of the underwriters warrants and the redeemable
warrants was approximately $281,000.

     In July, 1994, the Company acquired certain assets of Questor pursuant to
the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company and Questor, dated
July 8, 1994.  The purchase price for the assets consisted of a cash payment of
$4,500,000 and 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01
per share.  The total value of the transaction was $6,375,000.

     In September, 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a
resolution that all shares of Common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the
Company then issued but not outstanding (the "Treasury Stock") be retired.  The
Board of Directors further approved a resolution that the Treasury Stock resume
the status of authorized and unissued shares of common stock.

7.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)

     In May, 1995, the Company acquired three drilling rigs and related
equipment from a non-affiliated person.  The purchase price for the rigs
consisted of $367,500 cash, 97,500 shares of the Company's common stock and
warrants to purchase an additional 75,000 shares at an exercise price of $9.00
per share.  The total value of the transaction was $1,089,750.  The Company has
granted certain registration rights to the seller with respect to the 97,500
shares and the 75,000 shares purchasable upon exercise of the warrants
(collectively the "registrable securities") consisting of (a) a one-
time right after December 1, 1995, but prior to December 1, 1998, to cause the
Company to file, at the Company's expense, a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") covering the registrable
securities, provided that the number of shares that may be sold in any given
calendar month in connection with such registration statement may not exceed
the greater of (i) 37,500 shares or (ii) the greater  of  0.196   times  the
average   monthly  trading   volume  of  the Company's  common   stock  on
NASDAQ/NM over the preceding 12 calendar months, and (b) the right to join the
registrable securities in any registration statements filed by the Company with
the Commission.

     At December 31, 1995, the Company has 4,747,083 shares of common stock
issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

8.  STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

     Employee Stock Incentive Plan  -  In August, 1993, the Company adopted the
Patterson Energy, Inc. 1993 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Incentive Plan").
The purpose of the Stock Incentive Plan is to provide continuing incentives to
the Company's key employees, which may include, but shall not necessarily be
limited to, members of the Board of Directors (excluding members of the
Compensation Committee) and officers of the Company.  The Stock Incentive Plan
provides for an authorization of 175,000 shares of common stock for issuance
thereunder.  Under the Stock Incentive Plan, the Company may grant to key
employees awards of stock options and restricted  stock  or  any  combination
thereof.   The  Company may grant both incentive stock options ("incentive
stock options") intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and options which are not qualified as incentive
stock options.  The options become immediately exercisable in the event of a
change in control (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) of the Company.
Under the Stock Incentive Plan the exercise price of incentive stock options
must be at least equal to the fair market value of the stock on date of grant
and the exercise price of non-incentive stock options may not be less than 80%
of the fair market value on date of grant.

     Stock options covering a total of 166,000 shares of common stock have been
granted to date under the Stock Incentive Plan to five executive officers and
15 other employees of the Company, including Mr. Patterson (options covering
70,000 shares or approximately 42% of the total options granted).  The
outstanding options were variously granted on March 31, and October 27, 1995.
Each of the options has a 10-year term.  The options granted on March 31, 1995,
are exercisable at a price of $7.25 per share; while the options granted on
October 27, 1995, are exercisable at a per share price of $12.50.  These
exercise prices were equal to the fair market value of the stock on the
respective grant dates. The options vest in equal annual increments of 20%
beginning on the date of grant and continuing on each succeeding anniversary
date.  No options have been exercised at December 31, 1995.

     In March 1983, the Board of Directors of Tucker approved and implemented
an Incentive Stock Option Plan (including stock appreciation rights) which was
amended in 1988 to allow for granting of nonqualified stock options, and in
1991 was further amended to eliminate stock appreciation rights.  The purpose
of the Plan was to attract and retain key employees and directors and to
provide such persons with a proprietary interest in Tucker through the granting
and exercise of stock options.  The maximum number of shares of common stock
which may be granted under the plan is 126,910 shares.  The proceeds from the
sale of common stock pursuant to the plan were to be added to the general funds
of Tucker and used for general corporate purposes.

8.  STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS (CONTINUED)

     In June 1994 the Board of Directors of Tucker adopted the Tucker Drilling
Company, Inc. 1994 Non Qualified Stock Option Plan.  Officers and directors
were not eligible to receive options from this plan.  The maximum number of
shares available for issuance under the plan was 20,720 shares.

     Each of the plans provide that options may be granted to purchase shares
at prices not less than the fair market value at date of grant.  The exercise
period is governed by option agreements, but in no event may the exercise
period extend beyond ten years from date of grant.  As discussed at Note 2,
existing stock options and other employee incentive plans of Tucker effectively
became plans to purchase or receive common stock of Patterson as consummation
of the Merger.  Accordingly, stock rights inherent in such plans are affected
by the Exchange Ratio.

     Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan  -  In June 1995, Patterson
adopted the Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Outside Directors'
Plan").  The purpose of the Outside Directors' Plan is to encourage and provide
incentive for high level performance by non-employee directors of the Company.

     An Aggregate of 30,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance
under the Outside Director's Plan, to directors who are not employees of the
Company.  The exercise price of the options will be the fair market value of
the stock on the date of grant.  Outside directors are automatically granted
options to purchase 5,000 shares initially and an additional 1,000 shares for
each subsequent year that they serve up to a maximum of 10,000 shares per
director.  Each option is exercisable one year after the date of grant and
expires five years from the date of grant.  The options become immediately
exercisable in the event of a change in control (as defined in the Outside
Director's Plan) of the Company.  On June 6, 1995, each of the outside directors
of Patterson was automatically granted an option covering 5,000 shares with an
exercise price of $9.00 per share.  No other options have been granted to date
under the Outside Director's Plan, and none have been exercised as of December
31, 1995.

     Public relations services stock options  -  During November 1994, February
1995, and July 1995, the Company issued options covering a total of 125,000
shares of common stock to two consultants as partial compensation for public
relations services rendered to the Company.  The respective options were fully
exerciseable upon grant date.  In November 1994, 32,500 options were granted at
$7.50 per share and 12,500 options were granted at $8.50 per share.  In
February 1995, 20,000 options were granted at $8.775 per share and in July
1995, 60,000 options were granted at $9.625 per share.  The options expire five
years from date of grant.  No options have been exercised at December 31, 1995.

     Underwriters' warrants  -  In November 1993, the underwriting firms of the
Company's initial public offering were issued  warrants as partial
consideration for their underwriting services for the initial public offering.
The warrants give the underwriters the right to purchase 75,315 shares of the
Company's common stock at a price of $8.68  per  share  and  75,315  redeemable
warrants  at  $.375 per warrant.   In November 1995, 75,315 Redeemable
Warrants were issued to the underwriters due to a partial exercise of the
warrants.  These Redeemable Warrants were immediately exercised by the
underwriters at a price of $7.50 per share resulting in the issuance of 35,577
shares of the Company's common stock. The right to purchase 75,315 shares of
the Company's common stock under the underwriters' warrants will expire in
November 1998.

     Stock purchase warrants  -  In May 1995, the Company issued 75,000
warrants exerciseable at $9.00 per share as partial consideration for the
purchase of three drilling rigs and related equipment.  (See Note 7).  The
warrants were exerciseable upon issuance and expire on December 31, 1997.  No
warrants have been exercised at December 31, 1995.

9.  LEASES

     Rent expense for office space and certain tools and equipment under
monthly rental agreements and operation leases in 1993, 1994 and 1995 was
$518,525, $792,885 and $1,042,000, respectively.

     For the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994, the Company paid $13,800
in lease payments for each year.  During April 1995, the Company acquired a
57.85% undivided interest in each of two drilling rigs in which the Company
owned the remaining 42.15% interest.  The interests were acquired from Navajo
Rigs, Inc. ("Navajo"), an affiliated entity, for a purchase price of $433,875
in cash pursuant to a merger of Navajo into Patterson.  The acquired interests
were leased by the Company on a month-to-month basis prior to the acquisition.

     There are $53,516 and $51,810 of accrued Federal income taxes in
accrued expenses at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively.  There is
$54,101 of prepaid Federal income taxes in prepaid expenses at December
31, 1995.  There are $139,835 and $135,642 of accrued state income taxes
in accrued expenses at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively.

     As of January 1, 1993, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance
of approximately $6,405,000 was due primarily to net operating loss
("NOL") carryforwards which were not expected to be utilized before
their respective expiration dates or which benefits the Company was
unable to predict  whether  they would more likely than not be realized.
During 1994 and 1995, the Company changed its estimate with respect to
the future benefits of the NOL carryforwards and, accordingly, reduced
the related valuation allowance.  To the extent the valuation allowance
was reduced, the related tax benefit was credited to income.

     The tax effect of significant temporary differences representing
deferred tax assets and changes therein were as follows (in thousands):

     For tax return purposes, the Company had tax NOL carryforwards of
approximately $7,990,000 and alternative minimum tax ("AMT") NOL carryforwards
of approximately $5,788,000 at December 31, 1995.  In addition, the Company had
AMT credit carryforwards of $204,000 and statutory depletion carryforwards of
approximately $1,801,000 at December 31, 1995, which may be carried forward
indefinitely as a credit against the regular tax liability.   If  unused,  the
aforementioned tax NOL carryforwards will expire in various amounts in years
1998 to 2008.  During the years ended December 31,  1993,  1994  and  1995,
the  Company  utilized  approximately $2,277,000, $5,891,000, and $2,481,000
respectively, of NOL carryforwards.  The Company had investment tax credit
carryforwards of approximately $469,000 at December 31, 1995, which, if unused,

10.  INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

     During 1995, the Company's NOL carryforwards became subject to an annual
limitation due to a change of over 50% in the stock  ownership as defined  by
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (g).  Such limitations will be imposed upon
the net earnings of the Company excluding any contribution from the operations
acquired throughout the Merger ("Patterson Income") and separately imposed upon
the net earnings generated from the operations of the Tucker assets acquired
through the Merger ("Tucker Income").  The NOL carryforwards that can now be
utilized to offset Patterson income in any year will be equal to approximately
$1,808,000, which is determined by the value of Patterson's equity on August 2,
1995, the day prior to the ownership change, times 5.88%, the federal long-term
exempt rate on that date as published by the U. S. Treasury Department.
Similarly, the NOL carryforwards that can now be utilized to offset Tucker
Income will be limited to approximately $1,540,000 which is determined by the
value of Tucker's equity on July 29, 1996, the day prior to consummation of the
Merger, times 5.78%, the federal long term exempt rate on that date.

11.  EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

     Profit sharing Plan  -  Effective January 1, 1992, the Company established

</TABLE>

     Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are
primarily focused on contract drilling receivables.  The concentration is
mitigated by the diversification of customers for which the Company provides
drilling services.  No significant losses from individual contracts were
experienced during the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995.  Included in
general and administrative expense for the period ended December 31, 1993, is a
provision for 100% of a doubtful receivable in the approximate amount of
$355,500.  Included in general and administrative expense for the periods ended
December 31, 1994 and 1995 are provisions for doubtful receivables of $107,757
and $137,757, respectively.

     The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities
and trade receivables approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of
these assets.

16.  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     Use of assets  -  The Company leases a 1981 Beech King-Air 90 airplane
owned by an affiliate of the Company's Chairman of the Board/Chief Executive
Officer.  Under the terms of the lease, the Company pays a monthly rental of
$9,200 and the costs of fuel, insurance, taxes and maintenance of the aircraft.
From July, 1992, until January, 1995, the Company and another affiliate of the
Chairman of the Board/Chief Executive Officer were co-lessees of the aircraft.
The Company paid monthly rental of $4,500 plus the Company's proportionate
share of fuel.  Under this agreement insurance, taxes and maintenance were
shared equally by the Company and the co-lessee.  The Company paid
approximately $105,461, $126,497, and $174,455 for the lease of the airplane
during 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.

     Purchase of oilfield equipment and related parts  -  In October 1994, the
Company purchased oilfield equipment and parts from an entity currently owned
50% by an affiliate of the Company's Chairman of the Board/Chief Executive
Officer and 50% by the President/Chief Operating Officer.  The amount of the
purchase was $150,000 and the Company had a related accounts payable of

likely that the Company will realize the benefit of certain other deferred tax
assets prior to their respective expirations.  The Company incurred net
deferred income tax expense of approximately $139,000 during the six months
ended June 30, 1996.

     The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" during
the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 1996.  The Statement establishes accounting
standards for determining the impairment of the Company's long-lived assets.
Implementation of the Statement did not result in any adjustments to the
carrying values of such assets.

     The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" during the fiscal quarter ended March
31, 1996.  The Statement defines a fair value based method of accounting (i.e.,
using an option pricing model such as Black-Scholes) for employee stock options
or similar equity instrument plans, but also allows an entity to measure
compensation costs for those plans using the intrinsic value (the amount by
which the market price of the underlying stock exceeds the underlying price of
the option) based method of accounting as prescribed by Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25. The Company has elected to continue using the intrinsic
value based method as allowed by the Statement.

     On June 6, 1996, pursuant to the terms of the Company's Non-Employee
Directors' Stock Option Plan, options to purchase a total of 2,000 shares were
granted.  The Company did not incur any compensation related expenses as a
result of this transaction.  For the six months ended June 30, 1995, stock
options to purchase 180,000 shares of Patterson common stock were granted in
which no compensation expense was incurred.  Furthermore, significant
compensation expense would not have been incurred had a fair value based method
of accounting (i.e., Black-Sholes) been applied to the above described
activity.

     On July 12, 1996, pursuant to the terms of the Underwriter's Warrant
Agreement dated November 2, 1993, as amended on November 15, 1994 and June 18,
1996, the Company authorized the issuance of 38,224 shares of Patterson's
common stock upon exercise of the 75,316 warrants.  In lieu of a cash payment
to Patterson, the warrant holders chose to forfeit 37,092 shares of common
stock back to Patterson, in order to receive 38,224 shares of Patterson's
common stock (i.e., the cashless method).  The number of shares forfeited and
received by the respective warrant holders was determined using the stated
exercise price of the warrants ($8.68), the fair market value of Patterson's
common stock on the date of the exercise ($17.625) and the difference between
the stated exercise price and the fair market value on the date of exercise
($8.95).  The difference of $8.95 was multiplied by the total number of
outstanding warrants (75,316) and then divided by the fair market value
($17.625) to determine the number of shares to be received.

     On July 30, 1996, prior to consummation of the Merger on that date, the
stockholders of Patterson at a special meeting thereof, approved an amendment
to Patterson's Certificate of Incorporation providing for an increase in the
number of authorized shares of Patterson common stock from 5,000,000 shares to
9,000,000 shares and the issuance of the shares of Patterson common stock in
connection with the Merger.
