1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
On June 12, 1997, Patterson Drilling Company, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Patterson Energy, Inc. (the "Company"), consummated an
acquisition of the contract drilling assets of Wes-Tex Drilling Company
("Wes-Tex"), a privately-held, non-affiliated company based in Abilene,
Texas, for a purchase price of approximately $35.4 million, consisting
of $25.0 million in cash, 283,000 shares of the Company's common stock,
$0.01 par value, (valued at $31.50 per share), a three-year stock
purchase warrant (valued at $6.24 per share) to purchase 200,000
additional shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of
$32 per share and approximately $190,000 of other direct costs incurred
relative to the transaction. The acquisition was funded using $19.0
million of the Company's cash on hand and $6.0 million provided by the
Company's line of credit. The assets acquired consisted of 21 fully
operable drilling rigs, all related rolling stock and a shop and yard.
The Company did not assume any liabilities of Wes-Tex.
The unaudited pro forma financial information reflects
adjustments necessary to give effect to the acquisition on June 12,
1997 by the Company of the contract drilling assets of Wes-Tex, as
described above. The unaudited pro forma statement of income for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, assumes the acquisition was
completed on January 1, 1997.
The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information
and certain assumptions the Company believes are reasonable. The
unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily
indicative of operating results that would have occurred had the
acquisition been consummated on January 1, 1997, nor are they
indicative of future operating results of the combined companies.
The contract drilling revenue and direct operating expenses of
Wes-Tex presented herein only include the revenues and expenses
directly associated with the drilling operations of Wes-Tex, as well
as the general and administrative expenses allocated to such drilling
activities. General and administrative expenses were allocated
proportionately based on revenues contributed by the drilling and oil
and natural gas production operations of Wes-Tex. Management believes
that this is a reasonable basis to allocate general and administrative
expenses.
2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION PRESENTED
The unaudited pro forma statement of income for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 was prepared using the unaudited consolidated
financial statements for the quarterly period ended September 30, 1997
of the Company as reported under Form 10-Q and the unaudited financial
statements of Wes-Tex for the period ended June 12, 1997, the
acquisition date, and should be read in conjunction with such Form 10-Q
of the Company. The results of the contract drilling operations of
Wes-Tex, subsequent to June 12, 1997, are included in the consolidated
financial statements of the Company as of and for the period ended
September 30, 1997.

3. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
a. Depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and income
tax expense were adjusted to reflect increases resulting from the
acquisition of the contract drilling assets of Wes-Tex.
Depreciation expense was determined on a straight line basis using
depreciable lives consistent with those historically used by the
Company. Amortization expense was determined on a straight line
basis over five and fifteen years for the covenants not to compete
and goodwill, respectively. The related expense accounts were
increased as follows (in thousands):

work and footage drilling arrangements to the percentage-of-
completion method utilized by the Company.
