BUSINESS OPERATIONS
OILFIELD PRODUCTS AND SERVICES SEGMENT
M-I
Fluid Products and Services. The Company is a leading worldwide provider
of drilling, reservoir drill-in and completion fluid systems, products and
engineering services to end users engaged in drilling oil and natural gas wells.
Drilling fluids are used to cool and lubricate the bit during drilling
operations, contain formation pressures, suspend and remove rock cuttings from
the hole and maintain the stability of the wellbore. Engineering services are
provided to ensure that the fluid products are applied effectively to optimize
drilling operations. These services include recommending products and services
during the well planning phase; monitoring drilling fluid properties;
recommending adjustments during the drilling phase; and analyzing/benchmarking
well results after completion of the project to improve the efficiencies of
future wells.
M-I offers water-base, oil-base and synthetic-base drilling fluid systems.
Water-base drilling fluids are the world's most widely utilized systems, having
application in both land and offshore environments. Typically, these systems
comprise an engineered blend of weighting materials used to contain formation
pressures, and a broad range of chemical additives, designed to yield the
specific drilling performance characteristics required for a given drilling
project. Oil-base drilling fluids, which primarily are used to drill
water-sensitive shales, reduce torque and drag and are widely used in areas
where stuck pipe is likely to occur. In certain drilling areas of the world,
oil-base systems exhibit comparably higher penetration rates when compared to
water-base systems, significantly reducing time on location and overall drilling
costs. Synthetic-base drilling fluids are used in drilling environments where
oil-base fluids are environmentally prohibited and provide the performance
benefits of oil-base systems. Synthetic-base systems are particularly
advantageous in the deepwater environment. M-I also provides a comprehensive
line of reservoir drill-in fluids which combine the high performance properties
of a premium drilling fluid with minimal damaging characteristics of a brine
completion fluid.
1
Completion fluids (clear brines) are solids-free, clear-salt solutions
with high specific gravities and are non-damaging to the producing formation.
Operators use these specially designed fluid systems in combination with a
comprehensive range of specialty chemicals to control bottom-hole pressures,
while meeting the specific corrosion inhibition, viscosity and fluid loss
requirements necessary during the completion and workover phase of a well. These
systems are specially engineered to maximize well production by minimizing
formation damage that can be caused by solids-laden systems. M-I provides a
complete line of completion fluids products and services, including low- and
high-density brines, specialty chemicals, filtration and chemical treatment
services, wellsite engineering and technical and laboratory support services.
Fluid Competition. The major competitors in the worldwide drilling fluids
market, which approximated $3.1 billion in 2002, are Baroid Drilling Fluids (a
division of Halliburton Company ("Halliburton")) and INTEQ (a division of Baker
Hughes, Inc. ("Baker Hughes")). While M-I and these companies supply a majority
of the market, the drilling fluids industry is highly competitive, with a
significant number of smaller, locally based competitors. The major competitors
in the worldwide completion fluids market, which approximated $0.4 billion in
2002, are Baroid Completion Fluids (a division of Halliburton), Tetra
Technologies, Inc., BJ Services Company and Ambar, Inc.
Generally competition for sales of drilling and completions fluids is
based on a number of factors, including wellsite engineering services, product
quality and availability, technical support, service response and price.
SWACO Products and Services. M-I SWACO provides services, equipment and
engineering for solids control, pressure control and waste management to the
worldwide drilling market.
Solids-control equipment is used to remove drill cuttings from the fluid
system, allowing the drilling fluid to be cleaned and recirculated. Solids are
normally separated from the drilling fluid using one or a combination of the
following: balanced elliptical and linear-motion shale shakers, desanders,
disilters, hydroclones, mud cleaners and centrifuges. SWACO designs,
manufactures, sells and rents a comprehensive, proprietary line of this
equipment for oil and gas drilling processes throughout the world. The Company
is also a leading manufacturer and supplier of screens used in solids-control
equipment for both oilfield and certain industrial markets. SWACO complements
its product offering by providing engineering and technical support to operators
and drilling contractors from the planning stages of their projects through
waste removal and site remediation.
Operators employ SWACO-manufactured pressure-control equipment to drill
safely and economically in sour-gas and high-pressure zones. Well killing and
high-pressure control drilling chokes, together with related operating consoles,
are used in the drilling process during well kicks and well clean-up and testing
operations. Degassers and mud gas separators are designed to remove and safely
vent entrained gases, including toxic gases such as hydrogen sulfide and
corrosive oxygen, from the drilling mud. This equipment reduces the risk of
dangerous and costly blowouts caused by recirculating mud that contains natural
gas. Key products in SWACO's pressure control product line include the MUD
D-GASSER(R) and SUPER CHOKE(TM), both of which hold strong market positions as
do the SUPER MUD GAS SEPARATOR(TM) and the SUPER AUTOCHOKE(TM). The latter
products represent key advancements in hands-free well pressure control and
underbalanced drilling operations.
With drilling operations expanding into more environmentally sensitive
areas, there has been increased focus on the effective collection, treatment and
disposal of waste produced during the drilling of a well. SWACO provides
operators with value-added solutions designed to minimize and treat drilling
waste. The Company provides a full suite of waste handling, minimization and
management products and services that includes the recently acquired CLEANCUT(R)
pneumatic conveyance system for collection and transportation of drill cuttings
related to offshore drilling programs. SWACO also provides rig vacuum systems
for cuttings recovery, high-gravity force drying equipment for liquid/solid
separation and cuttings slurification and re-injection processes for reducing
haul-off waste. In addition, through the THERMAL PHASE SEPARATION(TM) process,
SWACO provides operators a proven technology for maximizing the recovery of
drilling fluids, while minimizing wastes. SWACO's waste treatment services
encompass a wide range of activities, including site assessment, drill cuttings
injection, water treatment, pit closure and remediation, bioremediation,
dewatering and thermal processing. The Company has established ENVIROCENTERS(R)
in Norway, Germany and the United States designed specifically for recovering,
treating and recycling solid and liquid drilling wastes.
SWACO Competition. M-I SWACO competes with Brandt/Rigtech (a subsidiary of
Varco International, Inc.) and Derrick/Oil Tools. Additionally, there are a
number of regional suppliers that provide a limited range of equipment and
services tailored for local markets. Competition is based on product
availability, equipment performance, technical support and price.
2
Oilfield Production Chemicals. M-I provides a complete line of oilfield
specialty chemicals and related technical services through its Oilfield
Production Chemical division, acquired in January 2003. Oilfield production
chemicals are used to enhance the flow of hydrocarbons from the wellbore by
eliminating paraffin, scale and other byproducts encountered during the
production process. Oilfield production chemicals are also used to protect
piping and other equipment associated with the production, transportation and
processing of oil and gas.
Production Chemical Competition. The major competitors in the worldwide
oilfield production chemical market include Baker Petrolite (a division of Baker
Hughes), Ondeo Nalco Energy Services, LP (a division of Suez) and Champion
Technologies, Inc. Generally, competition is based on product quality, product
performance, technical support and price.
Smith Bits
Products and Services. Smith Bits is a worldwide leader in the design,
manufacture and marketing of drill bits primarily used in drilling oil and
natural gas wells. In addition, with the acquisition of Sii Neyrfor during July
2002, Smith Bits is the leading provider of downhole turbine drilling products
(referred to as "turbodrills") and services that enhance the operating
performance of petroleum drill bits in certain applications. Smith Bits' product
offerings are designed principally for the premium market segments where faster
drilling rates and greater footage drilled provide significant economic benefits
in reducing the total cost of a well.
Smith Bits designs, manufactures and markets three-cone drill bits for the
petroleum industry, ranging in size from 3 1/2 to 28 inches in diameter. These
three-cone bits comprise two major components - the body and the cones, which
contain different types of pointed structures referred to as "cutting
structures" or "teeth." The cutting structures are either an integral part of
the steel cone with a hardmetal-applied surface (referred to as "milled tooth")
or made of an inserted material (referred to as "insert"), which is usually
tungsten carbide. The Company also produces three-cone drill bits in which the
tungsten carbide insert is coated with polycrystalline diamond. In certain
formations, bits produced with diamond-enhanced inserts last longer and increase
penetration rates, which substantially decreases overall drilling costs. Smith
Bits is the leading provider of drill bits utilizing diamond-enhanced insert
technology.
In addition, Smith Bits designs, manufactures and markets diamond drill
bits. Diamond bits consist of a single body made of either a matrix powder alloy
or steel. The cutting structures of diamond bits consist of either
polycrystalline diamond cutters, which are brazed on the bit, or natural or
synthetic diamonds, which are impregnated in the bit. These bits range in size
from 2 3/4 to 26 inches in diameter.
Smith Bits also designs, assembles and markets a comprehensive line of
turbodrills and provides related technical support. Turbodrills, which operate
directly above the drill bit, use the hydraulic energy provided by drilling
fluid pumps on the rig floor to deliver torque to and rotate the drill bit.
These proprietary tools are designed to provide faster rates of penetration,
operate in much higher temperature formations, deliver longer downhole life and
produce better wellbore quality than conventional positive displacement drilling
motors. The turbine drilling motor provides operators with cost effective
solutions in demanding environments such as horizontal applications, hard
formations and high-temperature zones.
The Company manufactures polycrystalline diamond and cubic boron nitride
materials that are used in the Company's three-cone and diamond drill bits and
other specialized cutting tools. The Company believes that it is one of the
world's largest manufacturers of polycrystalline diamond and the only drill bit
manufacturer with substantial capabilities in this area. Smith Bits also
develops and uses patented processes for applying diamonds to a curved surface
which optimize the performance of inserts used in drill bits. As a result, Smith
Bits enjoys a competitive advantage in both material cost and technical ability
over other drill bit companies. In addition, the Company's in-house diamond
research, engineering and manufacturing capabilities enhance the Company's
ability to develop the application of diamond technology across other Smith
product lines and into non-energy markets.
Competition. Besides the Company, Hughes Christensen (a division of Baker
Hughes), Security DBS (a division of Halliburton) and ReedHycalog (a division of
Grant Prideco, Inc.) are the three major competitors in the drill bit business.
While Smith Bits and these companies supply the majority of the worldwide drill
bit market, which approximated $1.1 billion in 2002, they compete with more than
20 companies. Generally, competition for sales of drill bits is based on a
number of factors, including performance, quality, reliability, service, price,
technological advances and breadth of products. The Company believes its
quality, reliability and technological advances, such as diamond-enhanced
inserts, provide its products with a competitive advantage.

Smith Services
Products and Services. Smith Services is a leading global provider of
technologically advanced drilling, fishing, remedial, multilateral and
completion products, services and solutions to the oil and gas drilling
industry.
Smith Services' Drilling Systems business provides a broad range of
downhole impact tools for drilling applications as well as numerous other
specialized downhole drilling products and services. Smith Services sells and
rents impact drilling tools such as the HYDRA-JAR(R) tool and the ACCELERATOR(R)
tool, which are used to free stuck drill strings during the drilling process.
Additionally, drilling performance tools such as the HYDRA-THRUST(R) tool, used
in the drilling process to maintain constant weight on the drill bit, and
Drilling on Gauge subs used for maintaining hole gauge and quality of the
wellbore, are examples of Smith Services continuous commitment to developing new
technology. Smith Services also offers tubular drill string components, such as
drill collars, subs, stabilizers, kellys and HEVI-WATE(TM) drill pipe, and
provides related inspection services, including drill string repair and rebuild
services. These components and their placement in the drill string are supported
by engineering and field technical services in order to optimize bottom hole
management techniques. Through state-of-the-art software, Smith Services aids
the customer in maximizing the life of drill string components. Rotating
drilling heads for flow control in underbalanced drilling applications and
automatic connection torque monitoring and control systems are also designed and
manufactured by Smith Services. Smith Services also manufactures and markets
hole openers and underreamers which are designed to create larger hole diameters
in certain sections of the wellbore. The Company's patented RHINO(TM) Reamer,
REAMASTER(R) and UNDERREAMMING-WHILE-DRILLING ("UWD(TM)") system are three
examples of products that aid the customer in realizing lower drilling costs
through technology. Through the use of the UWD system above the drill bit, the
operator may drill the main bore with the bit and enlarge the diameter of the
hole above the drill bit in the same run.
Smith Services' Fishing and Remedial Systems business provides a
comprehensive package of fishing, remedial and thru-tubing services. Fishing
operations clear and remove obstructions from a wellbore that may arise during
drilling, completion or workover activities or during a well's production phase.
This operation requires a wide variety of specialty tools, including fishing
jars, milling tools and casing cutters, all of which are manufactured by Smith
Services. These tools are operated by Company service personnel or sold or
rented to third-party fishing companies.
Smith Services provides Wellbore Departure Systems and Multilateral
Junctions through the manufacture of proprietary casing exit tools which are
installed by highly trained technicians. These systems, which include the
patented TRACKMASTER(R)WHIPSTOCK SYSTEM, PACK-STOCK(R), ANCHOR-STOCK(R) and the
MX(TM) Multilateral junction, allow the operator to divert around obstructions
in the main wellbore or reach multiple production zones from the main wellbore
(known as multilateral completions). In addition, Smith Services' patented
DRILLAHEAD(TM) SYSTEM combined with the XITOR GEOTRACK(TM) One-trip Mills,
which mill the casing exit and continue to drill several hundred feet of
formation, provide for a "no trip" system which saves the customer time and
reduces their overall drilling costs. The Company also provides mechanical,
hydraulic and explosive pipe-cutting services to remove casing during well or
platform abandonment.
Smith Services' Completion Systems business specializes in providing
fit-for-purpose liner hanger, liner cementing equipment, isolation packers,
retrievable and permanent packers, packer products and multilateral completion
equipment. Liner hangers allow strings of casing to be suspended within the
wellbore without having to extend the string all the way to the surface and are
also used to isolate production zones and formations. Most directional and
multilateral wells include one or more hangers due to the difficult casing
programs and need for zonal isolation. Using Smith Services' POCKET SLIP(TM)
liner hanger system, long heavy liners can be suspended with minimal casing
distortion and maximum flow-by area. Packers are mechanically or hydraulically
actuated devices which lock into place at specified depths in the well and
provide a seal between zones through expanding-element systems. The devices
therefore create isolated zones within the wellbore to permit either specific
formation production or allow for certain operations, such as cementing or
acidizing, to take place without damaging the reservoir.
Competition. Smith Services' major competitors in the drilling, remedial,
re-entry and fishing services markets are Weatherford International, Inc.
("Weatherford"), Baker Oil Tools (a division of Baker Hughes) and numerous small
local companies. The main competitors in the liner hanger and packer markets are
Baker Oil Tools, Weatherford and TIW Corporation. The main competitors in the
drilling and fishing jar market and the fishing product and service market are
Weatherford and National-Oilwell Inc. ("National-Oilwell"). Competition in the
drilling and completions sales, rental and services market is primarily based on
performance, quality, reliability, service, price and response time and, in some
cases, breadth of products.
4
DISTRIBUTION SEGMENT
Wilson
Products and Services. Wilson is a supply-chain management company which
provides products and services to the energy, refining, petrochemical, power
generation and mining industries. Wilson operates an extensive network of supply
branches, service centers and sales offices through which it markets pipe,
valves, fittings, mill, safety and other maintenance products throughout the
world, predominately in the United States and Canada. In addition, Wilson
provides warehouse management, vendor integration and various surplus and
inventory management services. The majority of Wilson's operations are focused
on North American distribution of maintenance, repair and operating supplies and
equipment with the remainder associated with line pipe and automated valve
products (including valve, actuator and control packages).
Approximately 60 percent of Wilson's 2002 revenues were generated in the
energy segment, which includes exploration and production companies and
companies with operations in the petroleum industry's pipeline segment. The
remainder related to sales in the downstream and industrial market, which
primarily includes refineries, petrochemical plants and other energy-focused
operations.
Competition. Wilson's competitors in its energy segment operations include
National-Oilwell, Redman Pipe and Supply Company and a significant number of
smaller, locally based operations. Wilson's competitors in the downstream and
industrial market include McJunkin Corporation, WW Grainger and Hagemeyer NV.
The distribution market that Wilson participates in is highly competitive.
Generally, competition involves numerous factors, including price, experience,
customer service and equipment availability.
NON-U.S. OPERATIONS
Sales to oil and gas exploration and production markets outside the United
States are a key strategic focus of Smith's management. The Company markets its
products and services through subsidiaries, joint ventures and sales agents
located in virtually all petroleum-producing areas of the world, including
Canada, Europe/Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and the Far East.
Approximately 53 percent, 48 percent and 51 percent of the Company's revenues in
2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, were derived from equipment or services sold
or provided outside the United States. The Company's Distribution operations
constitute a significant portion of the consolidated revenue base and are
concentrated in North America which serves to distort the geographic revenue mix
of the Company's Oilfield segment operations. Excluding the impact of the
Distribution operations, 64 percent, 59 percent and 60 percent of the Company's
revenues were generated in non-U.S. markets in 2002, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.
Historically, drilling activity outside the United States has been less
volatile than U.S. based activity as the high cost exploration and production
programs outside the United States are generally undertaken by major oil
companies, consortiums and national oil companies. These entities operate under
longer-term strategic priorities than do the independent drilling operators that
are more common in the U.S. market.
SALES AND DISTRIBUTION
Sales and service efforts are directed to end users in the drilling and
completion industry, including major and independent oil companies, national oil
companies and independent drilling contractors. The Company's products and
services are primarily marketed through the direct sales force of each business
unit. In certain non-U.S. markets where direct sales efforts are not
practicable, the Company utilizes independent sales agents, distributors or
joint ventures.
Smith maintains field service centers, which function as repair and
maintenance facilities for rental tools, operations for remedial and completion
service and a base for the Company's global sales force, in every major oil and
gas producing area of the world. The location of these service centers near the
Company's customers is an important factor in maintaining favorable customer
relations.
5
MANUFACTURING
The Company's manufacturing operations, along with quality control
support, are designed to ensure that all products and services marketed by the
Company will meet standards of performance and reliability consistent with the
Company's reputation in the industry.
Management believes that it generally has sufficient internal
manufacturing capacity to meet anticipated demand for its products and services.
During periods of peak demand, certain business units utilize outside resources
to provide additional manufacturing capacity.
RAW MATERIALS
Through its company-owned mines in and outside the United States, M-I has
the capability to produce a large portion of its requirements for barite and
bentonite. Barite reserves are mined in the United States, the United Kingdom
and Morocco. Bentonite is produced from ore deposits in the United States.
Mining exploration activities continue worldwide to locate and evaluate ore
bodies to ensure deposits are readily available for production when market
conditions dictate. In addition to its own production, M-I purchases a majority
of its worldwide barite requirement from suppliers outside the United States,
mainly the People's Republic of China, India and Morocco.
The Company purchases a variety of raw materials for its Smith Bits and
Smith Services units, including alloy and stainless steel bars, tungsten carbide
inserts and forgings. Generally, the Company is not dependent on any single
source of supply for any of its raw materials or purchased components. The
Company purchases a significant amount of tungsten carbide inserts and U.S.
forging requirements from two suppliers under separate supply agreements. The
Company believes that numerous alternative supply sources are available for all
such materials. The Company produces polycrystalline diamond materials in Provo,
Utah and Scurelle, Italy for utilization in various Company products as well as
direct customer sales. The Company believes that it enjoys a competitive
advantage in the manufacture of diamond drill bits because it is the only
diamond drill bit producer with substantial polycrystalline diamond
manufacturing capabilities.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, ENGINEERING AND PATENTS
The Company's business units maintain product development and engineering
departments whose activities are focused on improving existing products and
services and developing new technologies to meet customer demands for improved
drilling performance and environmental-based solutions for drilling and
completion operations. The Company's primary research facilities are located in
Houston, Texas; Stavanger, Norway; and Aberdeen, Scotland.
The Company also maintains a drill bit database which records the
performance of drill bits over the last 17 years, including those manufactured
by competitors. This database gives the Company the ability to monitor, among
other things, drill bit failures and performance improvements related to product
development. Management believes this proprietary database gives the Company a
competitive advantage in the drill bit business.
The Company has historically invested significant resources in research
and engineering in order to provide customers with broader product lines and
technologically-advanced products and services. The Company's expenditures for
research and engineering activities are attributable to the Company's Oilfield
Products and Services segment and totaled $50.6 million in 2002, $50.8 million
in 2001 and $42.4 million in 2000. In 2002, research and engineering
expenditures approximated 2.2 percent of the Company's Oilfield Products and
Services segment revenues.
Although the Company has over 1,200 issued and pending patents and regards
its patents and patent applications as important in the operation of its
business, it does not believe that any significant portion of its business is
materially dependent upon any single patent or group of patents or upon patent
protection in general.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 2002, the Company had 11,165 full time employees
throughout the world. Most of the Company's employees in the United States are
not covered by collective bargaining agreements except in certain U.S. mining
operations of M-I and several distribution locations of Wilson. The Company
considers its labor relations to be satisfactory.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The following "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations" is provided to assist readers in understanding the
Company's financial performance during the periods presented and significant
trends which may impact the future performance of the Company. This discussion
should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of the
Company and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
The Company manufactures and markets premium products and services to the
oil and gas exploration and production and petrochemical industries and other
industrial markets. The Company's worldwide operations are largely driven by the
level of exploration and production activity in major energy-producing areas and
the depth and drilling conditions of these projects. Drilling activity levels
are primarily influenced by energy prices but may also be affected by
expectations related to the worldwide supply of and demand for oil and natural
gas, finding and development costs, decline and depletion rates, political
actions and uncertainties, environmental concerns, capital expenditure plans of
exploration and production companies and the overall level of global economic
growth and activity.
The Company's current year results are expected to be influenced by the
anticipated five percent to ten percent increase in average worldwide activity
levels during 2003 and, to a lesser extent, the acquisition of the oilfield
chemical business of Dynea International, which was completed subsequent to
year-end. The majority of the year-over-year increase in drilling activity is
expected to be reported in North America. Drilling activity in the United States
and Canada is heavily influenced by natural gas fundamentals, as over 80 percent
of the North American rig count is currently natural gas-directed. Natural gas
storage levels in the United States, which were in excess of the historical
five-year average throughout most of 2002, have recently been reduced due to a
combination of declining production and higher weather-related demand. Over the
past twelve months, U.S. natural gas storage levels have declined close to 50
percent, which has contributed to average natural gas prices increasing nearly
threefold. Although, to date, exploration and production companies have not
committed significant capital for new drilling programs, management believes
operators will increase spending throughout 2003 due to the favorable commodity
price environment and the reduction in U.S. natural gas supplies. Drilling
activity in markets outside of North America, which is primarily influenced by
crude oil fundamentals, has remained relatively consistent throughout 2002 and
is not forecasted to increase significantly in 2003. While worldwide activity
levels are currently above the average reported in 2002, various factors,
including political and regional instabilities, oil and natural gas storage
levels, commodity prices and depletion rates, will likely influence drilling
activity on a going forward basis. The Company's business outlook is highly
dependent on the general economic environment in the United States and other
major world economies, which ultimately impact energy consumption and the
resulting demand for our products and services. Further weakness in the global
economic environment could result in a substantial decline in worldwide drilling
activity, adversely impacting the Company's future financial results.
Management also believes the increasing complexity of drilling programs
has resulted in a shift in exploration and production spending toward
value-added, technology-based products, which reduce operators' overall drilling
costs. The Company continues to focus on investing in the development of
technology-based products that considerably improve the drilling process through
increased efficiency and rates of penetration and reduced formation damage.
Management believes the overall savings realized by the use of the Company's
premium products, such as polycrystalline diamond drill bits, diamond-enhanced
three-cone drill bits and synthetic drilling fluids, compensate for the higher
costs of these products over their non-premium counterparts.

13
Oilfield Products and Services Segment
Revenues
M-I provides drilling and completion fluid systems, engineering and
technical services to the oil and gas industry through its M-I Fluids division.
M-I's SWACO division manufactures and markets equipment and services for
solids-control, separation, pressure control, rig instrumentation and
waste-management. M-I's business operations are largely influenced by the number
of offshore drilling programs, which are more revenue-intensive than land-based
projects due to the complex nature of the related drilling environment. M-I
reported revenues of $1.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2002, a
decline of four percent from the prior year period. Excluding the impact of
acquired operations, revenues were ten percent below the prior period and
compared to an 18 percent decline in the average M-I worldwide rig count. The
majority of the base revenue decline was attributable to the lower number of
land-based drilling programs in the Western Hemisphere markets, primarily the
United States, Argentina and Venezuela. Lower sales of synthetic drilling
fluids, related to a 22 percent reduction in the average number of U.S. offshore
drilling projects, accounted for the remainder of the year-to-year variance.
M-I's 2001 revenues of $1.6 billion were 32 percent above the amount reported in
2000. The revenue growth was attributable to a 15 percent increase in worldwide
drilling activity and, to a lesser extent, acquisitions and improved pricing.
After excluding the effect of acquired operations, M-I's 2001 revenues were 22
percent above the prior year level with revenue growth reported in all
geographic regions. The majority of the base-business revenue expansion was
reported in the United States and Europe/Africa due to higher demand for fluid
products and fluid processing services.
Smith Bits designs, manufactures and sells three-cone drill bits, diamond
drill bits and turbines for use in the oil and gas industry. Prior to the
transfer of its mining bit operations to an unconsolidated joint venture in
October 2001, Smith Bits also supplied drill bits to the mining and construction
industry. For the year ended December 31, 2002, Smith Bits' revenues totaled
$324.7 million. Revenues for the Smith Bits unit, which due to the nature of its
product offerings correlate more closely to the rig count than any of the
Company's other operations, were 18 percent below the prior year and mirrored
the decline in worldwide activity levels. The majority of the revenue variance
resulted from lower unit sales of three-cone bits, reflecting the 28 percent
reduction in U.S. drilling activity. Reduced activity levels in certain Latin
American markets, specifically Colombia, Argentina and Venezuela, accounted for
the remainder of the year-to-year variance. Smith Bits' 2001 revenues totaled
$398.2 million, a 21 percent increase over the 2000 level. Excluding the impact
of mining bit operations, revenues grew 25 percent year-to-year and compared to
a 15 percent increase in the average worldwide rig count. The majority of the
base revenue growth was driven by increased drilling activity in the United
States and Europe/Africa and, to a lesser extent, the impact of improved pricing
and market penetration.
Smith Services manufactures and markets products and services used in the
oil and gas industry for drilling, workover, well completion and well re-entry.
Smith Services reported revenues of $399.5 million for the year ended December
31, 2002. Revenues were comparable with amounts reported in the prior year
period, as incremental revenues from acquired operations offset a 13 percent
decline in base business volumes. The base revenue reduction primarily reflects
the effect of a 27 percent decline in North American activity levels, which
impacted demand for drilling-related products and services, including tubulars
and inspection services. Smith Services' 2001 revenues totaled $398.3 million, a
37 percent increase over the 2000 level. The significant revenue growth was
attributable to higher worldwide activity levels and new contract awards. Smith
Services' base revenues increased over 2000 levels in all geographic regions,
with approximately two-thirds of the improvement reported in the United States.
On a product basis, over 60 percent of the revenue improvement was attributable
to increased demand for drilling-related products and services, including drill
pipe, tubulars and inspection services.
14
Operating Income
Operating income for the Oilfield Products and Services segment was $266.7
million, a 25 percent decline from the prior year period. Segment operating
margins were 12 percent for the year ended December 31, 2002, approximately
three percentage points below the prior year's level. The year-over-year
decrease in segment operating income relates to decreased gross profit,
primarily associated with lower sales volumes, as the Company has experienced
minimal pricing erosion to date. To a lesser extent, decreased demand for
higher-margin products, specifically drill bits and premium drilling fluids
which accounted for over three quarters of the revenue decline, contributed to
the gross profit reduction. Segment operating expenses were comparable with the
prior year, as the effect of lower employee profit-sharing requirements and the
elimination of goodwill amortization was offset by incremental expenses
associated with acquired operations and higher costs incurred under medical and
casualty insurance programs. For the year ended December 31, 2001, segment
operating income increased $166.6 million above the previous year due to higher
gross profit primarily associated with the 31 percent revenue improvement,
partially offset by higher variable-based operating expenses. Segment operating
margins increased to 15 percent in 2001, five percentage points above the prior
year's level. Approximately three-quarters of the year-over-year expansion in
operating margins was attributable to improved gross profit margins, reflecting
improved pricing and the leverage of higher volumes on the Company's
manufacturing and service infrastructure. Operating expenses, as a percentage of
revenues, also declined from 2000 and accounted for the remainder of the margin
expansion.
Distribution Segment
Revenues
Wilson markets pipe, valves, fittings and mill, safety and other
maintenance products to energy and industrial markets, primarily through an
extensive network of supply branches concentrated in the United States and
Canada. The segment has the highest North American revenue exposure of any of
the Company's operations, with 96 percent of Wilson's 2002 revenues generated in
those markets. For the year ended December 31, 2002, Distribution revenues were
$887.2 million, a 21 percent decline from the prior year's level. Over 70
percent of the revenue variance was reported in the energy branch operations
related to a combination of lower North American drilling and completion
activity and reduced Canadian tubular product sales due to increased competition
from steel mills. Lower spending for major maintenance programs and projects by
customers in the U.S. industrial and petrochemical markets contributed to the
remainder of the segment's revenue variance. Wilson's revenues totaled $1.1
billion in 2001, an increase of 24 percent from 2000. The Van Leeuwen
operations, which were acquired in January 2001, contributed approximately
two-thirds of the year-over-year revenue growth. The majority of the eight
percent increase in base-business revenues was reported in the U.S. energy
branch operations, which benefited from higher customer spending on exploration
and production programs and line pipe projects.
Operating Income
Distribution segment operating income declined $26.9 million from the
amounts reported in 2001. The operating income variance reflects lower gross
profit associated with the reported revenue decline, partially offset by a
reduction in variable-based operating expenses. As a percentage of sales,
operating income decreased two percentage points from the prior year, as lower
sales volumes impacted coverage of fixed sales and administrative support costs.
Wilson's 2001 operating income of $22.9 million was $6.2 million above the level
reported in 2000. Operating income approximated two percent of revenue in 2001,
slightly above the 2000 level due to the impact of the revenue growth on
coverage of sales and administrative support expenses. Gross profit margins were
consistent with the prior year, with an improvement in gross margins in the U.S.
energy branches offset by the effect of a higher proportion of industrial and
downstream revenues, which traditionally generate lower gross profit margins.

========== ========== ========== ========== ========== ==========
2002 versus 2001
Consolidated revenues were $3.2 billion, 11 percent below the prior year's
level. The majority of the revenue reduction was reported in the Company's
Distribution operations, which are concentrated in North America and were
impacted by the significant decline in corresponding activity levels. The
revenue variance was also influenced by the impact of revenues from acquired
operations and, to a lesser extent, the contribution of certain Oilfield segment
operations to an unconsolidated joint venture in the fourth quarter of 2001.
Excluding the net impact of acquired and divested operations, base revenues
declined 15 percent from the prior year, as demand for the Company's products
and services was impacted by a 26 percent reduction in Western Hemisphere
drilling activity. Base revenue growth in the Eastern Hemisphere markets,
attributable to increased activity levels and new contract awards, served to
partially offset the overall revenue decline.
Gross profit was $918.3 million, 12 percent below the prior year period.
The decrease in gross profit reflects lower sales volumes associated with the
reduction in worldwide activity levels and, to a lesser extent, decreased demand
for higher-margin Oilfield segment products. Gross profit margins for the year
were 29 percent of revenues, comparable with the prior year period. An increased
proportion of Oilfield segment revenues in 2002, which generate higher gross
profit margins than the Distribution operations, served to mask the margin
deterioration reported in the Oilfield segment.
Operating expenses, consisting of selling, general and administrative
expenses, decreased $12.1 million from the prior year amount. The operating
expense decline was attributable to cost reduction efforts initiated in response
to the decrease in Western Hemisphere activity levels, lower employee
profit-sharing requirements and the elimination of goodwill amortization in
accordance with SFAS No. 142. Incremental expenses from acquired operations and
the increased cost of medical and casualty insurance programs served to
partially offset the overall expense decline. As a percentage of revenues,
operating expenses increased two percentage points, reflecting lower fixed cost
coverage related to the overall sales and administrative functions in both of
the Company's operating segments.
Net interest expense, which represents interest expense less interest
income, decreased $4.1 million from the prior year. The minimal increase in
average debt levels, primarily related to financing acquisitions in the fourth
quarter of the prior year, was more than offset by the impact of reduced
short-term interest rates on the Company's variable rate debt.
16
The effective tax rate approximated 31 percent, which was below both the
32 percent effective rate reported in the prior year and the U.S. statutory
rate. The effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate due to the
impact of M-I's U.S. partnership earnings for which the minority partner is
directly responsible for its related income taxes. The Company properly
consolidates the pre-tax income related to the minority partner's share of U.S.
partnership earnings but excludes the related tax provision. The effective tax
rate declined one percentage point from the prior year due to the elimination of
goodwill amortization, a portion of which was not tax deductible, and a
favorable shift in the geographic mix of pre-tax income toward lower rate
jurisdictions.
Minority interests reflect the portion of the results of majority-owned
operations which are applicable to the minority interest partners. Minority
interests totaled $58.0 million in 2002, a $12.5 million reduction from the
prior year. The decrease reflects the lower profitability of the M-I joint
venture, partially offset by the impact of acquiring a majority interest in
United Engineering Services LLC in the fourth quarter of 2001.
2001 versus 2000
Consolidated revenues were $3.6 billion, 29 percent above the prior year,
with higher revenue reported across all operating units and geographic regions.
Two-thirds of the improvement was generated by the Company's base operations.
The Company reported organic revenue growth of 19 percent from 2000, comparing
favorably to the 15 percent increase in average worldwide drilling activity. The
majority of the consolidated base revenue growth was reported in the United
States and Europe/Africa. The period-to-period increase in revenues was also
attributable to acquired operations and, to a lesser extent, the impact of
improved pricing and market penetration experienced in the Company's Oilfield
operations.
Gross profit was $1.0 billion, 40 percent in excess of the prior year due
primarily to the higher reported revenue levels. Gross profit margins rose over
two percentage points to 29 percent of revenues in 2001, reflecting the impact
of price increases and higher sales volumes on fixed cost coverage in the
Oilfield Products and Services segment. A higher proportion of Oilfield segment
revenues in 2001, which generate higher gross profit margins than the
Distribution business, also favorably affected the overall percentage.
Operating expenses increased $128.2 million, or 24 percent, from the
amount reported in 2000. The majority of the overall increase in operating
expenses was attributable to the expansion in base business volumes, which
contributed to a 16 percent increase in average personnel levels over 2000.
Incremental operating expenses associated with acquired operations contributed
to the higher expense levels, to a lesser extent, accounting for approximately
40 percent of the variance from the prior year. Operating expenses as a
percentage of revenues declined almost one percentage point from 2000,
reflecting higher fixed cost coverage related to the overall sales and
administrative functions in both of the Company's operating segments.
Net interest expense increased $7.6 million from 2000. Average debt levels
rose $158.9 million year-over-year, reflecting borrowings necessary to finance
15 acquisitions in 2001. The Company's average borrowing rate declined
approximately 70 basis points in 2001, partially offsetting the impact of the
increase in average debt levels on the interest expense variance.
The effective tax rate approximated 32 percent, which was below both the
34 percent effective rate reported in the prior year and the U.S. statutory
rate. The effective rate was below the U.S. statutory rate due to the impact of
M-I's U.S. partnership earnings for which the minority partner is directly
responsible for its related income taxes. The Company properly consolidates the
pre-tax income related to the minority partner's share of U.S. partnership
earnings but excludes the related tax provision. The effective tax rate declined
from the prior year, primarily due to a favorable shift in the geographic mix of
pre-tax income toward lower rate jurisdictions.
Minority interests reflect the portion of the results of majority-owned
operations which are applicable to the minority interest partners. Minority
interests was $70.5 million, an increase of $34.2 million from 2000 reflecting
primarily the improvement in profitability of the M-I joint venture.
17
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General
At December 31, 2002, cash and cash equivalents equaled $86.8 million.
During 2002, the Company's operations generated $323.5 million of cash flows,
which is $117.8 million above the amount reported in 2001. The improvement is
related to the significant decline in North American drilling activity, which
reduced working capital levels, particularly the required investment in accounts
receivable and inventories.
In 2002, cash flows used in investing activities totaled $139.2 million,
primarily attributable to capital expenditures and, to a lesser extent, amounts
required to fund acquisitions. During 2002, the Company invested $78.8 million
in property, plant and equipment, net of cash proceeds arising from certain
asset disposals. Projected net capital expenditures for 2003 are expected to
increase to approximately $85.0 million, as higher drilling activity is expected
to impact the level of investment in manufacturing and rental tool equipment.
Capital spending in 2003 is expected to primarily consist of spending for
routine additions of property and equipment to support the Company's operations
and maintenance of the Company's capital equipment base. In addition to the
investment in capital equipment, the Company funded four acquisitions during
2002 for cash consideration of $60.2 million and purchased stock of a
majority-owned subsidiary totaling $0.2 million.
Cash flows from operations exceeded cash required to fund investing
activities, resulting in repayments of $116.0 million in outstanding
indebtedness. Cash flows used in financing activities, which totaled $142.6
million for 2002, were also impacted by minority partner cash distributions of
$31.6 million and proceeds from the exercise of stock options totaling $5.0
million during the year.
The Company's primary internal source of liquidity is cash flow generated
from operations. Cash flow generated by operations is primarily influenced by
the level of worldwide drilling activity, which affects profitability levels and
working capital requirements. Capacity under revolving credit agreements is also
available, if necessary, to fund operating or investing activities. The Company
has various revolving credit facilities in the United States. As of December 31,
2002, the Company had $360.0 million of capacity available under these
facilities for future operating or investing needs. The Company also has
revolving credit facilities in place outside of the United States, which are
generally used to finance local operating needs. At year-end, the Company had
available borrowing capacity of $47.9 million under the non-U.S. borrowing
facilities.
The Company's external sources of liquidity include debt and equity
financing in the public capital markets, if needed. The Company carries an
investment-grade credit rating with recognized rating agencies, generally
providing the Company with access to debt markets. The Company's overall
borrowing capacity is, in part, dependent on maintaining compliance with
financial covenants under the various credit agreements. As of year-end, the
Company was well within the covenant compliance thresholds under its various
loan indentures, as amended, providing the ability to access available borrowing
capacity. Management believes funds generated by operations, amounts available
under existing credit facilities and external sources of liquidity will be
sufficient to finance capital expenditures and working capital needs of the
existing operations for the foreseeable future.
Subsequent to December 31, 2002, M-I acquired certain oilfield chemical
assets of Dynea International in exchange for cash consideration of $78.6
million. The transaction was funded with cash on hand and $37.2 million of
borrowings under the Company's revolving credit agreement. Management continues
to evaluate opportunities to acquire products or businesses complementary to the
Company's operations. Additional acquisitions, if they arise, may involve the
use of cash or, depending upon the size and terms of the acquisition, may
require debt or equity financing.
18
The Company has not engaged in off-balance sheet financing arrangements
through special purpose entities, and the consolidation of the Company's
minority ownership positions would not result in an increase in reported
leverage ratios. The Company has no contractual arrangements in place that could
result in the issuance of additional shares of the Company's common stock at a
future date other than the Company's stock option program, which is discussed in
Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," and Note 12, "Employee
Stock Options."
The Company believes that it has sufficient existing manufacturing
capacity to meet current demand for its products and services. Additionally,
inflation has not had a material effect on the Company in recent years and is
expected to have a modest impact on the operations in the foreseeable future.
The Company has generally been able to offset most of the effects of inflation
through productivity gains, cost reductions and price increases.
Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies
The following table summarizes the Company's debt maturities and future
minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases having initial terms in
excess of one year (in thousands):
Operating
Debt Lease
Period Due Maturities Commitments Total
---------- ---------- ----------- --------
2003 ................................. $159,692 $ 34,452 $194,144
2004 ................................. 19,888 23,064 42,952
2005 ................................. 32,152 17,160 49,312
2006 ................................. 13,152 12,663 25,815
2007 ................................. 156,736 9,766 166,502
Thereafter ........................... 220,039 36,755 256,794
-------- -------- --------
$601,659 $133,860 $735,519
======== ======== ========
In the normal course of business with customers, vendors and others, the
Company is contingently liable for performance under standby letters of credit
and bid and performance bonds which totaled $72.4 million at December 31, 2002.
The amount primarily consists of a $25.0 million standby letter of credit,
supporting notes issued in conjunction with the acquisition of CleanCut
Technologies, and various performance bonds, of which $33.1 million expire in
2003. Management does not expect any material amounts to be drawn on these
instruments.
The Company routinely establishes and reviews the adequacy of reserves for
estimated future environmental clean-up costs for properties currently or
previously operated by the Company. Although the Company believes it is in
substantial compliance with environmental protection laws, estimating the
related liability is difficult considering the continual changes in
environmental regulations and the potential identification of new sites. In
connection with most business acquisitions, the Company obtains contractual
indemnifications from the seller related to environmental matters. These
indemnifications generally provide for the reimbursement of environmental
clean-up costs incurred by the Company for events occurring or circumstances
existing prior to the purchase date, whether the event or circumstance was known
or unknown at that time. A substantial portion of the Company's total
environmental exposure is associated with its M-I operations, which are subject
to various indemnifications from former owners. As of December 31, 2002, the
Company has established an environmental reserve of $12.1 million. This amount
reflects the future undiscounted estimated exposure related to identified
properties, without regard to indemnifications from former owners. While actual
future environmental costs may differ from estimated liabilities recorded at
December 31, 2002, the Company does not believe that these differences will have
a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations,
subject to the indemnifications in place. In the event that i) the parties
providing the environmental indemnifications do not fulfill their obligations,
and ii) costs incurred to remediate the identified properties reach estimated
maximum exposure limits, the Company would be required to establish additional
environmental reserves of up to $25.0 million, impacting earnings and cash flows
in future periods.
19
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the
Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going
basis, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ
from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The Company believes the following describes significant judgments and
estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:
The Company extends credit to customers and other parties in the normal
course of business. Management regularly reviews outstanding receivables and
provides for estimated losses through an allowance for doubtful accounts. In
evaluating the level of established reserves, management makes judgments
regarding the parties' ability to make required payments, economic events and
other factors. As the financial condition of these parties change,
circumstances develop or additional information becomes available,
adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required.
The Company has made significant investments in inventory to service its
customers around the world. On a routine basis, the Company uses judgments in
determining the level of reserves required to state inventory at the lower of
cost or market. Management's estimates are primarily influenced by
technological innovations, market activity levels and the physical condition
of products. Changes in these or other factors may result in adjustments to
the carrying value of inventory.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for differences between
the book basis and tax basis of the net assets of the Company. In providing
for deferred taxes, management considers current tax regulations, estimates
of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies. In certain
cases, management has established reserves to reduce deferred tax assets to
estimated realizable value. If tax regulations, operating results or the
ability to implement tax planning strategies vary, adjustments to the
carrying value of deferred tax assets and liabilities may be required.
The Company records liabilities for environmental obligations when remedial
efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Management's
estimates are based on currently enacted laws and regulations. As more
information becomes available or environmental laws and regulations change,
such liabilities may be required to be adjusted. Additionally, in connection
with acquisitions, the Company generally obtains indemnifications from the
seller related to environmental matters. If the indemnifying parties do not
fulfill their obligations, adjustments of recorded amounts may be required.
The Company maintains insurance coverage for various aspects of its business
and operations. The Company retains a portion of losses that occur through
the use of deductibles and retentions under self-insurance programs.
Management regularly reviews estimates of reported and unreported claims and
provides for losses through insurance reserves. As claims develop and
additional information becomes available, adjustments to loss reserves may be
required.
20
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 provides updated
guidance concerning the recognition and measurement of an impairment loss for
certain types of long-lived assets and modifies the accounting and reporting of
discontinued operations. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material
impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations
for the year ended December 31, 2002.
On December 31, 2002, the Company adopted the disclosure requirements of
SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and
Disclosure." SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a
voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation and amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123.
On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 addresses the financial accounting
and reporting for retirement obligations and costs associated with tangible
long-lived assets. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
operations for the year ending December 31, 2003.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") which are adopted by the Company
as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management
believes the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective,
will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position
or results of operations upon adoption.
21
QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE MARKET RISK DISCLOSURES
The Company is exposed to market risks from changes in interest rates and
foreign exchange rates and enters into various hedging transactions to mitigate
these risks. The Company does not use financial instruments for trading or
speculative purposes. See Note 7, "Financial Instruments," for additional
discussion of hedging instruments.
The Company's exposure to interest rate changes is managed through the use
of a combination of fixed and floating rate debt and by entering into interest
rate contracts, from time to time, on a portion of its long-term borrowings. The
Company had no interest rate contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2002 and
2001. At December 31, 2002, 24 percent of the Company's long-term debt carried a
variable interest rate. Management believes that significant interest rate
changes will not have a material near-term impact on the Company's future
earnings or cash flows.
The Company's exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates is managed
primarily through the use of forward exchange contracts. These contracts
increase or decrease in value as foreign exchange rates change, to protect the
value of the underlying transactions denominated in foreign currencies. All
currency contracts are components of the Company's hedging program and are
entered into for the sole purpose of hedging an existing or anticipated currency
exposure. The gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the value of
the related exposures. The terms of these contracts generally do not exceed two
years. As of December 31, 2002, the notional amounts of fair value hedge
contracts and cash flow hedge contracts outstanding were $43.4 million and $31.4
million, respectively, and the fair value exceeded the notional amount of these
contracts by $3.6 million. As of December 31, 2001, the notional amounts of fair
value hedge contracts and cash flow hedge contracts outstanding were $43.1
million and $15.5 million, respectively, and the fair value exceeded the
notional amount of these contracts by $1.4 million. In some areas, where hedging
is not cost effective, the Company addresses foreign currency exposure utilizing
working capital management.
The Company utilizes a "Value-at-Risk" ("VAR") model to determine the
maximum potential one-day loss in the fair value of its foreign exchange
sensitive financial instruments. The VAR model estimates were made assuming
normal market conditions and a 95 percent confidence level. The Company's VAR
computations are based on the historical price movements in various currencies
(a "historical" simulation) during the year. The model includes all of the
Company's foreign exchange derivative contracts. Anticipated transactions, firm
commitments and assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which
certain of these instruments are intended to hedge, were excluded from the
model. The VAR model is a risk analysis tool and does not purport to represent
actual losses in fair value that will be incurred by the Company, nor does it
consider the potential effect of favorable changes in market factors. The
estimated maximum potential one-day loss in fair value of currency sensitive
instruments, calculated using the VAR model, was not material to the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
Below is a copy of the report previously issued by Arthur Andersen LLP, the
Company's former independent public accountants, related to the Company's
consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001 and
2000. Arthur Andersen ceased operations in 2002 and is unable to issue an
updated report. Certain financial statements covered by this report have not
been included in the accompanying financial statements.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Smith International, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Smith
International, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31,
2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Smith
International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Smith International, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Smith
International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2002,
and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and
comprehensive income and cash flows for the year then ended. Our audits also
included the financial statement schedule listed in Part IV, Item 15(a)(2).
These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on
our audit. The consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule of the Company as of December 31, 2001 and for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 2001, prior to the revisions discussed below, were
audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. Those auditors expressed
an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in their report dated
January 29, 2002.
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, such 2002 consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Smith International, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such
2002 financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, effective January 1, 2002,
the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible
assets upon adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."
As discussed above, the consolidated financial statements and financial
statement schedule of the Company as of December 31, 2001 and for each of the
two years in the period ended December 31, 2001 were audited by other auditors
who have ceased operations. These financial statements have been revised to i)
give effect to a two-for-one stock split during 2002 (Notes 1, 3, 9 and 12), ii)
include the transitional disclosures required by SFAS No. 142 (Notes 1 and 5),
and iii) include expanded disclosures relating to foreign currency contracts
(Note 7) and the Company's supplemental executive retirement plan (Note 10). We
audited the adjustments, transitional disclosures and expanded disclosures
described above. Our procedures included a) agreeing previously reported
weighted average shares outstanding, stock option, net income and goodwill
amounts to the previously issued financial statements, b) agreeing the
transitional adjustments and expanded disclosure amounts to the Company's
underlying records obtained from management, and c) testing the mathematical
accuracy of the applicable 2001 and 2000 amounts. In our opinion, such
adjustments and disclosures for 2001 and 2000 are appropriate and have been
properly applied. However, we were not engaged to audit, review or apply any
procedures to the 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements and financial
statement schedule of the Company other than with respect to such adjustments
and disclosures, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form
of assurance on the 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements and
financial statement schedule taken as a whole.

SMITH INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All dollar amounts are expressed in thousands, unless otherwise noted)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
Smith International, Inc. ("Smith" or the "Company") provides premium
products and services to the oil and gas exploration and production industry,
the petrochemical industry and other industrial markets. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles and all applicable financial statement
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission"). Management believes the consolidated financial statements present
fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the
Company as of the dates indicated.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and all wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries. Investments in affiliates in
which ownership interest ranges from 20 to 50 percent, and the Company exercises
significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for
on the equity method. All other investments are carried at cost, which does not
exceed the estimated net realizable value of such investments. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Audited Financial Information for Periods Prior to Fiscal 2002
Arthur Andersen LLP ("Arthur Andersen") served as the Company's
independent auditors until their dismissal on April 15, 2002, at which time
Smith's Board of Directors appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP. Accordingly, Arthur
Andersen performed audits of the Company's consolidated financial statements as
of December 31, 2001 and 2000 and for the fiscal years then ended and issued an
unqualified opinion dated January 29, 2002.
Arthur Andersen ceased operations during 2002 and is unable to consent to
the inclusion of their previously issued opinions on the Company's financial
statements in filings with the Commission. Although the accompanying balance
sheet as of December 31, 2001 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for
each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2001, are not covered by
a current consent from the Company's former independent auditors, management has
included these financial statements in order to provide historical information
as required by the Commission. Management is not aware of any event or
circumstance which would have precluded Arthur Andersen from reissuing their
opinion on the Company's 2000 and 2001 consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
Preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosed amounts of contingent assets and liabilities and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Management believes the most
significant estimates and assumptions are associated with the valuation of
accounts receivable, inventories and deferred taxes as well as the determination
of liabilities related to environmental obligations and self-insurance programs.
If the underlying estimates and assumptions, upon which the financial statements
are based, change in future periods, actual amounts may differ from those
included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased
with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
30
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO"), last-in, first-out ("LIFO") or average cost
methods. Inventory costs consist of materials, labor and factory overhead.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets, consisting of rental equipment and property, plant and
equipment, are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. The Company
computes depreciation on fixed assets using principally the straight-line
method. The estimated useful lives used in computing depreciation generally
range from 20 to 40 years for buildings, three to 25 years for machinery and
equipment, and five to ten years for rental equipment. Leasehold improvements
are amortized over the lives of the leases or the estimated useful lives of the
improvements, whichever is shorter. For income tax purposes, accelerated methods
of depreciation are used.
Costs of major renewals and betterments are capitalized as fixed assets.
Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor improvements are charged to
expense when incurred. When fixed assets are sold or retired, the remaining cost
and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the
resulting gain or loss is included in the consolidated statement of operations.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets
acquired. On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,"
which addresses financial accounting and reporting matters. In accordance with
SFAS No. 142, the Company discontinued amortizing goodwill to earnings as of
January 1, 2002. The Statement also requires that goodwill be tested for
impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that
an impairment may exist.
During the first quarter of 2002, the Company completed the transitional
impairment test required by SFAS No. 142 for goodwill recorded as of the
adoption date. The transitional goodwill impairment test involved a comparison
of the fair value of each of the Company's reporting units, as defined, with
their carrying value and resulted in the identification of no impairment.
The accompanying consolidated statements of operations provide relevant
disclosures related to recorded goodwill amortization and the after-tax impact
which would have resulted from the adoption of SFAS No. 142 as of January 1,
2000.
The Company amortizes identifiable intangible assets, generally consisting
of patents, trademarks and non-compete agreements, on a straight-line basis over
their expected useful lives, which range from three to 27 years. The adoption of
SFAS No. 142 also required the Company to re-evaluate the remaining useful lives
of its intangible assets to determine whether the periods being used were
appropriate. No changes to the carrying value of the intangibles, nor the
remaining useful lives, were recorded as a result of the review.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be
recoverable. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future cash flows
associated with the asset will be compared to the asset's carrying amount to
determine if an impairment exists.
31
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
Gains and losses resulting from balance sheet translation of operations
outside the United States where the applicable foreign currency is the
functional currency are included as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income within stockholders' equity. Gains and losses resulting
from balance sheet translation of operations outside the United States where the
U.S. dollar is the functional currency are included in the consolidated
statements of operations.
Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions, excluding
cash flow hedges discussed below, are recognized currently in the consolidated
statements of operations.
Financial Instruments
The nature of the Company's business activities involves the management of
various financial and market risks, including those related to changes in
currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company occasionally employs
derivative financial instruments such as foreign exchange contracts, foreign
exchange options and interest rate contracts to mitigate or eliminate certain of
those risks. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for
speculative purposes.
On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which requires that derivatives
be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and establishes criteria for
designation and effectiveness of hedging relationships. The adoption of SFAS No.
133 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
The Company records changes in fair market value related to fair value
hedges, which includes foreign exchange contracts, to general and administrative
expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, the Company
records changes in value related to cash flow hedges, which includes foreign
exchange contracts and interest rate swaps, to accumulated other comprehensive
income.
Environmental Obligations
Expenditures for environmental obligations that relate to current
operations are expensed or capitalized, as appropriate. Liabilities are recorded
when environmental clean-up efforts are probable and their cost is reasonably
estimated, and are adjusted as further information is obtained. Such estimates
are based on currently enacted laws and regulations and are not discounted to
present value.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability
approach for financial accounting and income tax reporting based on enacted tax
rates. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more
likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not
be realized.
Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenues are composed of product sales, rental, service and
other revenues. The Company recognizes product sales revenues upon delivery to
the customer, net of applicable provisions for returns. Rental, service and
other revenues are recorded when such services are performed.
Minority Interests
The Company records minority interest expense which reflects the portion
of the earnings of majority-owned operations which are applicable to the
minority interest partners. The minority interest amount primarily represents
the share of the M-I profits associated with the minority partner's 40 percent
interest in those operations. To a lesser extent, minority interests include the
portion of CE Franklin Ltd. and United Engineering Services LLC earnings
applicable to the minority shareholders.
32
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company's Board of Directors and its stockholders have authorized an
employee stock option plan. As of December 31, 2002, 6.2 million shares were
issued and outstanding under the program and an additional 3.3 million shares
were authorized for future issuance. Options are generally granted at the fair
market value on the date of grant, vest over a four-year period and expire ten
years after the date of grant.
Certain option awards granted on December 4, 2001 were subject to
stockholder approval which was not obtained until April 24, 2002. Accordingly,
these options were granted with a strike price more than five percent below the
market value on the date of issuance and do not meet the conditions necessary to
qualify as a non-compensatory option grant. Compensation expense related to
these grants is being recognized over the four-year vesting period and resulted
in the inclusion of $0.3 million of related expense in the accompanying
consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2002.
The Company continues to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in
accounting for its stock option program, as allowed under SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Therefore, for all options other than
those mentioned above, the Company elects to make pro forma disclosures versus
recognizing the related compensation expense in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
Had the Company elected to apply the accounting standards of SFAS No. 123,
the Company's net income and earnings per share would have approximated the pro
forma amounts indicated below (in thousands, except per share data):
2002 2001 2000
----------- ----------- -----------
Net income, as reported ..................... $ 93,189 $ 152,145 $ 72,800

Earnings per share:

Pro forma:
Basic ..................................... $ 0.86 $ 1.46 $ 0.69
Diluted ................................... 0.85 1.45 0.68
In addition to the stock option program described above, the Company
maintains a stock grant program. The stock grants are issued at par value and
are subject to a four-year cliff-vesting schedule. Compensation expense,
calculated as the difference between the market value on the date of grant and
the exercise price, is being recognized ratably over the vesting period and
resulted in the inclusion of $0.6 million, $0.6 million and $0.5 million of
related expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
33
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 provides updated
guidance concerning the recognition and measurement of an impairment loss for
certain types of long-lived assets and modifies the accounting and reporting of
discontinued operations. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material
impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations
for the year ended December 31, 2002.
On December 31, 2002, the Company adopted the disclosure requirements of
SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and
Disclosure." SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a
voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation and amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123.
On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 addresses the financial accounting
and reporting for retirement obligations and costs associated with tangible
long-lived assets. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
operations for the year ending December 31, 2003.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") which are adopted by the Company
as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management
believes the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective,
will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position
or results of operations upon adoption.
34
2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
During 2002, the Company completed four acquisitions in exchange for
aggregate cash consideration of $60.2 million, the issuance of $24.8 million of
notes payable and the assumption of certain liabilities. Significant 2002
transactions include:
On July 31, 2002, the Company acquired certain turbodrilling assets of
Neyrfor-Weir Ltd. in exchange for cash consideration of $25.3 million. The
acquired operations, which design proprietary turbodrilling equipment and
provide related services for horizontal and directional drilling
applications, have been integrated into the Company's Oilfield Products and
Services segment.
On October 11, 2002, M-I acquired CleanCut Technologies ("CleanCut") for
cash consideration of $16.1 million and the issuance of notes to sellers
totaling $23.9 million. CleanCut, formerly based in Scotland, designs,
manufactures and installs waste collection and transportation systems for
offshore drilling operations.
On November 28, 2002, M-I acquired IKF Services, a drilling fluids and
solids-control company located in Russia, for cash consideration of $13.4
million. In addition, M-I may be obligated to provide additional
consideration of up to $9.0 million at a future date, dependent upon whether
terms under the earn-out arrangement are met.
The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net
assets acquired amounted to $35.6 million, which has been recorded as goodwill
in the Oilfield Products and Services segment. Substantially all of the goodwill
related to the 2002 acquisitions is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The purchase price allocation related to certain of the 2002 acquisitions is
based upon preliminary information and is subject to change when additional data
concerning the contingent consideration and final asset and liability valuations
is obtained. Material changes in the preliminary allocations are not anticipated
by management.
During 2001, the Company completed 15 acquisitions in exchange for
aggregate cash consideration of $248.1 million and the assumption of certain
liabilities. On a combined basis, the minority partner in M-I contributed $43.4
million of cash to the joint venture in connection with transactions completed
during the year. Significant 2001 transactions include:
On January 31, 2001, the Company acquired substantially all of the U.S. net
assets of Van Leeuwen Pipe and Tube Corporation ("Van Leeuwen") for cash
consideration of $41.1 million. Van Leeuwen, a leading provider of pipe,
valves and fittings to the refining, petrochemical and power generation
industries, has been integrated into the Company's Distribution segment
operations.
On August 22, 2001, M-I acquired BW Group plc ("BW Group"), based in
Scotland, for cash consideration of $20.5 million and the assumption of
certain indebtedness. BW Group provides drilling and completion fluids and
related engineering services to the North Sea market.
On October 2, 2001, M-I acquired The SulfaTreat Company, a natural gas
production services company headquartered in the United States, for cash
consideration of $35.0 million.
On October 23, 2001, M-I acquired the oilfield and industrial screen
operations of Madison Filter Belgium S.A. ("Madison") for cash consideration
of $93.5 million. Madison, which includes United Wire Ltd. based in Scotland
and Southwestern Wire Cloth, Inc. based in the United States, manufactures
and markets screens for oilfield shakers and provides screening products for
use in a broad range of industrial markets.
The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net
assets acquired amounted to $137.1 million, which has been recorded as goodwill.
Of this amount, $135.8 million relates to the Oilfield Products and Services
segment and $1.3 million is associated with the Distribution segment. Goodwill
associated with 2001 acquisitions completed prior to July 1 was amortized on a
straight-line basis over a 20-year period; however, goodwill related to
transactions completed subsequent to that date was not amortized in accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.
35
During 2000, the Company acquired six operations in exchange for aggregate
cash consideration of $145.4 million and the assumption of certain liabilities.
The minority partner in M-I contributed $21.6 million of cash to the joint
venture in connection with an acquisition. Significant 2000 transactions
include:
On January 15, 2000, the Company acquired Texas Mill Supply and
Manufacturing, Inc. ("Texas Mill") in exchange for cash consideration of
$30.0 million. Texas Mill was a U.S.-based provider of industrial mill and
safety products and management services primarily to the refining, power
generation and petrochemical markets.
On November 30, 2000, M-I acquired the drilling fluids and solids-control
assets of Bolland & Cia. S.A., based in Argentina, for cash consideration of
$25.5 million.
On December 15, 2000, M-I acquired the Sweco Division of Emerson ("Sweco")
for cash consideration of $75.0 million. Sweco manufactures, markets and
services specialty separation equipment for oilfield applications and a
broad range of industrial markets.
The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net
assets acquired amounted to $111.9 million, which has been recorded as goodwill.
Of this amount, $95.3 million relates to the Oilfield Products and Services
segment and $16.6 million is associated with the Distribution segment. Goodwill
associated with 2000 acquisitions was amortized on a straight-line basis over a
20-year period.
The following unaudited pro forma supplemental information presents
consolidated results of operations as if the Company's significant current and
prior year acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2001. The unaudited pro forma
data is based on historical information and does not include estimated cost
savings; therefore, it does not purport to be indicative of the results of
operations had the combinations been in effect at the dates indicated or of
future results for the combined entities (in thousands, except per share data):

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed using the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect
to the potential dilution of earnings which could have occurred if additional
shares were issued for stock option exercises under the treasury stock method.
During 2002, the Company's Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock
split effected in the form of a stock dividend. All prior year weighted average
share and option amounts have been restated for the effect of the stock split.
Outstanding employee stock options of 1.7 million and 0.4 million as of
December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, were not included in the computation
of diluted earnings per common share as the exercise price was greater than the
average market price for the Company's stock during the corresponding period.
The following schedule reconciles the income and shares used in the basic
and diluted EPS computations (in thousands, except per share data):

The Company's short-term borrowings consist of amounts outstanding under
lines of credit and short-term loans. Certain subsidiaries of the Company have
unsecured credit facilities with non-U.S. banks aggregating $97.9 million. At
December 31, 2002, $47.9 million of additional borrowing capacity was available
under these facilities. These borrowings had a weighted average interest rate of
eight percent at December 31, 2002 and 2001.
The 6.75 percent, 7.0 percent and Floating Rate Senior Notes are unsecured
obligations of the Company issued under an Indenture dated September 8, 1997.
The Indenture contains no financial covenants, nor any restrictions related to
the payment of cash dividends to common stockholders. The Company's 6.75 percent
and 7.0 percent Senior Notes are redeemable by the Company, in whole or in part,
at any time prior to maturity at a redemption price equal to accrued interest
plus the greater of the principal amount or the present value of the remaining
principal and interest payments. The Company's Floating Rate Senior Notes accrue
interest based on a variable rate, subject to quarterly adjustments, equal to
LIBOR plus 112.5 basis points and have no redemption feature.
In July 2002, the Company terminated its existing revolving credit
facility, which was scheduled to expire in December 2002, and replaced it with
an unsecured facility provided by a syndicate of nine financial institutions.
The new revolving credit agreement (the "Agreement"), which expires July 2005,
includes a $400.0 million committed line of credit with a $25.0 million letter
of credit sub-facility. The Agreement allows for the election of interest at a
base rate, or a Eurodollar rate ranging from LIBOR plus 62.5 to 75.0 basis
points depending on amounts drawn under the facility. The Agreement also
requires the payment of a quarterly commitment fee of 15 basis points on the
unutilized portion of the facility and compliance with certain customary
covenants, including maintenance of specified debt-to-total capitalization and
interest coverage ratios, as defined. The LIBOR interest margins and the
commitment fee are subject to adjustment depending on the senior debt rating of
the Company. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had $15.0 million drawn and
$25.0 million of letters of credit issued under the facility, resulting in
additional borrowing capacity of $360.0 million.
In October 2002, the Company issued $23.9 million of notes payable to
certain former shareholders in connection with the CleanCut transaction. The
majority of the notes, which mature in September 2004, include callable
provisions at the option of the noteholder beginning April 2003. These notes
have been properly classified as short-term borrowings in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet.
The Company was in compliance with its loan covenants under the various
loan indentures, as amended, at December 31, 2002.
Interest paid during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000,
amounted to $41.2 million, $39.4 million and $35.4 million, respectively.

7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Foreign Currency Contracts
From time to time, the Company enters into spot and forward contracts as a
hedge against foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities and foreign
currency commitments. The terms of these contracts generally do not exceed two
years. For fair value hedges, settlement and market value gains and losses are
recognized currently through earnings, and the resulting amounts generally
offset foreign exchange gains or losses on the related accounts. Gains or losses
on designated cash flow hedge contracts are deferred to accumulated other
comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2002, the notional amounts of fair
value hedge contracts and cash flow hedge contracts outstanding were $43.4
million and $31.4 million, respectively, and the fair value exceeded the
notional amount of these contracts by $3.6 million. As of December 31, 2001, the
notional amounts of fair value hedge contracts and cash flow hedge contracts
outstanding were $43.1 million and $15.5 million, respectively, and the fair
value exceeded the notional amount of these contracts by $1.4 million.
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
The recorded and fair values of long-term debt at December 31 are as
follows:
2002 2001
----------------------------- -----------------------------
Recorded Fair Recorded Fair
Value Value Value Value
------------- ------------- ------------- -------------
Long-term debt............... $ 551,681 $ 597,143 $ 637,379 $ 649,329
The fair value of the remaining financial instruments, including cash and
cash equivalents, receivables, payables and short-term borrowings, approximates
the carrying value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Total foreign operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2002, resulted
in a deferred tax asset of approximately $21.8 million, of which $14.9 million
has been offset by recording a valuation reserve. These losses are available to
reduce the future tax liabilities of their respective foreign entities.
Approximately $11.4 million of these losses will carryforward indefinitely,
while the remaining losses expire at various dates. U.S. foreign tax credit
carryforwards of $2.1 million are available to reduce taxes through 2007. The
Company's valuation allowance was reduced by $9.9 million in 2002 and $3.5
million in 2001, primarily due to the expiration of net operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards outside the United States.
Income taxes paid during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000,
amounted to $39.7 million, $87.9 million and $23.0 million, respectively.
The Company has provided additional taxes for the anticipated repatriation
of certain earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries. Undistributed earnings above
the amounts upon which additional taxes have been provided, which approximated
$47.9 million at December 31, 2002, are intended to be permanently invested by
the Company. It is not practicable to determine the amount of applicable taxes
that would be incurred if any of such earnings were repatriated.
9. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Stock Split
On June 6, 2002, the Company's Board of Directors approved a two-for-one
stock split, effected in the form of a stock dividend. Stockholders of record as
of June 20, 2002 were entitled to the dividend, which was distributed on July 8,
2002. Unless otherwise noted, all prior year share and option amounts included
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have
been restated for the effect of the stock split.
Treasury Share Repurchases
During 2001, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share buyback
program which allows for the repurchase of up to five million shares of common
stock, subject to regulatory issues, market considerations and other factors.
During 2001, the Company repurchased 536,200 shares, on a pre-split basis, of
common stock at an aggregate cost of $21.4 million. The acquired shares, as
adjusted for the two-for-one stock split, have been added to the Company's
treasury stock holdings and may be used in the future for acquisitions or other
corporate purposes. Future repurchases under the program may be executed from
time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
Stockholder Rights Plan
On June 8, 2000, the Company adopted a Stockholder Rights Plan (the
"Rights Plan") to replace a similar plan which expired on June 19, 2000. As part
of the Rights Plan, the Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend of one
preferred stock purchase right ("Right") for each share of the Company's common
stock outstanding on June 20, 2000. The Board also authorized the issuance of
one such Right for each share of the Company's common stock issued after June
20, 2000 until the occurrence of certain events.
The Rights are exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events related
to a person (an "Acquiring Person") acquiring or announcing the intention to
acquire beneficial ownership of 20 percent or more of the Company's common
stock. When the rights become exercisable, each holder (except an Acquiring
Person) will be entitled to purchase, at an effective exercise price of $175,
shares of the Company's common stock having a market value of twice the Right's
exercise price, subject to adjustment. The Acquiring Person will not be entitled
to exercise these Rights. In addition, if the Company is involved in a merger or
other business combination transaction, or sells 50 percent or more of its
assets or earning power to another entity, each Right will entitle its holder to
purchase, at the Right's then current exercise price, shares of common stock of
such other entity having a value of twice the Right's exercise price.
The Rights are subject to redemption at the option of the Board of
Directors at a price of one-half of a cent per Right until the occurrence of
certain events. The Rights currently trade with the Company's common stock, have
no voting or dividend rights and expire on June 8, 2010.
43
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
As of December 31, 2002, accumulated other comprehensive income in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet includes $9.2 million of cumulative
currency translation losses and $3.5 million of cumulative minimum pension
liability adjustments, partially offset by $2.3 million of cumulative changes in
unrealized fair value of derivatives. Approximately $2.0 million of the
cumulative changes in unrealized fair value of derivatives is expected to be
recognized as after-tax earnings during the fiscal year ending December 31,
2003.
10. RETIREMENT PLANS
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company established the Smith International, Inc. 401(k) Retirement
Plan (the "Plan") for the benefit of all eligible employees. Employees may
voluntarily contribute up to 12 percent of compensation, as defined, to the
Plan. The Company makes retirement, matching and, in certain cases,
discretionary matching contributions to each participant's account under the
Plan. Participants receive a full match of the first 1 1/2 percent of their
contributions along with a retirement contribution ranging from two percent to
six percent of their qualified compensation. In addition, the Board of Directors
may provide discretionary matching contributions based upon financial
performance to participants who are employed by the Company on December 31.
M-I has a Company Profit-Sharing and Savings Plan (the "M-I Plan") under
which participating employees may contribute up to 15 percent of their
compensation, as defined. Under the terms of the M-I Plan, qualified employees
are eligible to receive basic, matching and profit-sharing contributions with
the approval of the Employee Benefits Committee and, in certain instances, the
Board of Directors. Participants are eligible to receive a basic contribution
equal to three percent of qualified compensation, and a full match of the first
1 1/2 percent of their contributions. In addition, the Board of Directors may
provide discretionary profit-sharing contributions based upon financial
performance to participants who are employed by M-I on December 31.
The Company recognized expense totaling $17.6 million, $25.5 million and
$20.7 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, related to Company
contributions to the plans.
Certain of the Company's subsidiaries sponsor various defined contribution
plans. The Company's contributions under these plans for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 2002, were immaterial.
Deferred Compensation Plan
The Company maintains a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP"), a
non-qualified, deferred compensation program, for the benefit of officers and
certain other eligible employees of the Company. Participants may contribute, on
a pre-tax basis, up to 100 percent of cash compensation, as defined. Plan
provisions allow for retirement and matching contributions, similar to those
provided under the Company's defined contribution programs, and, in certain
cases, an interest contribution in order to provide a yield on short-term
investments equal to 120 percent of the long-term applicable federal rate, as
defined.
In the event of insolvency or bankruptcy, plan assets are available to
satisfy the claims of all general creditors of the Company. Accordingly, the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets reflect the aggregate participant
balances as both an asset and a liability of the Company. As of December 31,
2002 and 2001, $30.6 million and $25.5 million, respectively, are included in
other assets with a corresponding amount recorded in other long-term
liabilities.
During the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, Company
contributions to the plan totaled $1.9 million, $1.1 million and $0.7 million,
respectively.
44
11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Pension Plans
The Company currently maintains various pension plans covering certain
U.S. and non-U.S. employees. In connection with the Van Leeuwen transaction, the
Company assumed certain pension obligations related to its employees. Future
benefit accruals and the addition of new participants under the U.S. plans were
frozen prior to 1998.
Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company and its subsidiaries provide limited health care benefits for
retired employees. Many employees who retire from the Company are eligible for
these benefits.
The Smith International, Inc. Retiree Medical Plan ("Smith Medical Plan")
provides postretirement medical benefits to retirees and their spouses. The
retiree medical plan has annual and lifetime limitations on the dollar amount of
the Company's portion of the cost of benefits incurred by retirees under the
Smith Medical Plan. The remaining cost of benefits in excess of the annual or
lifetime limitation is the responsibility of the participants.
M-I provides medical coverage to eligible retirees and their dependents
under the M-I Drilling Fluids Retiree Medical Plan ("M-I Medical Plan").
Eligibility for inclusion in that plan, however, was closed as of January 1,
1994, to the majority of M-I's employees. M-I contributes to the cost of
benefits under this plan; however, these costs are reviewed annually for
inflation, and limited to a maximum five percent increase in M-I's contribution
per year. Any costs in excess of M-I's maximum contribution are the
responsibility of the retirees or their dependents.
Although Wilson provides postretirement medical coverage to eligible
retirees and their spouses, new employees have not been eligible for inclusion
under this program since January 1986. Eligible individuals are able to continue
primary medical coverage under Wilson's group insurance program until reaching
the age of 65 at which time such coverage becomes secondary for participants
electing to remain in the program. Participating retirees are required to
contribute a portion of the insurance premiums under the program with Wilson
responsible for any costs in excess of those contributions.

The health care cost trend rate assumption can have a significant effect
on the amounts reported. An increase of one percentage point in the health care
cost trend rate would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
and the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of the
postretirement benefits expense by $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
A decrease of one percentage point in the health care cost trend rate would
decrease the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and the aggregate of
the service and interest cost components of the postretirement benefits expense
by $0.6 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

13. INDUSTRY SEGMENTS AND INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS
The Company manufactures and markets premium products and services to the
oil and gas exploration and production industry, the petrochemical industry and
other industrial markets. The Company aggregates its operations into two
reportable segments: Oilfield Products and Services and Distribution. The
Oilfield Products and Services segment consists of three business units: M-I,
which provides drilling and completion fluid systems and services,
solids-control and separation equipment and waste-management services; Smith
Bits, which designs, manufactures and sells three-cone drill bits, diamond drill
bits and turbines; and Smith Services, which manufactures and markets products
and services used for drilling, workover, well completion and well re-entry
operations.
The Distribution segment consists of one business unit, Wilson, which
markets pipe, valves, fittings and mill, safety and other maintenance products
to energy and industrial markets.
The principal markets for these segments include all major oil and
gas-producing regions of the world including North America, Latin America,
Europe/Africa, the Middle East and the Far East. The Company's customers include
major multi-national, independent and national, or state-owned, oil companies.
In addition, the Company provides products and services to customers in the
petrochemical and chemical industries and other industrial markets.

The Company's revenues are derived principally from uncollateralized sales
to customers in the oil and gas industry, the petrochemical industry and other
industrial markets. This industry concentration has the potential to impact the
Company's exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, because
customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions.
The creditworthiness of this customer base is strong, and the Company has not
experienced significant credit losses on such receivables.
The Company's expenditures for research and engineering activities are
attributable to the Company's Oilfield Products and Services segment and totaled
$50.6 million in 2002, $50.8 million in 2001 and $42.4 million in 2000.
14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Leases
The Company routinely enters into operating and capital leases for certain
of its facilities and equipment. Amounts related to assets under capital lease
were immaterial for the periods presented. Rent expense totaled $61.3 million,
$51.4 million and $39.4 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Future minimum payments under non-cancelable operating leases having
initial terms of one year or more are as follows:
AMOUNT
---------
2003........................................ $ 34,452
2004........................................ 23,064
2005........................................ 17,160
2006........................................ 12,663
2007........................................ 9,766
2008 through 2012........................... 15,643
Thereafter.................................. 21,112
---------
$ 133,860
=========
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into lease agreements
with cancellation provisions as well as agreements with initial terms of less
than one year. The costs related to these leases have been reflected in rent
expense but have been appropriately excluded from the future minimum payments
presented above.
Standby Letters of Credit
In the normal course of business with customers, vendors and others, the
Company is contingently liable for performance under standby letters of credit
and bid and performance bonds which totaled $72.4 million at December 31, 2002.
The amount primarily consists of a $25.0 million standby letter of credit,
supporting notes issued to certain CleanCut shareholders, and various
performance bonds, of which $33.1 million expire in 2003. Management does not
expect any material amounts to be drawn on these instruments.
50
Insurance
The Company maintains insurance coverage for various aspects of its
business and operations. The Company has elected to retain a portion of losses
that occur through the use of deductibles and retentions under its insurance
programs. Amounts in excess of the self-insured retention levels are fully
insured to limits believed appropriate for the Company's operations.
Self-insurance accruals are based on claims filed and an estimate for claims
incurred but not reported. While management believes that amounts accrued in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements are adequate for expected
liabilities arising from the Company's portion of losses, estimates of these
liabilities may change as circumstances develop.
Litigation
The Company is a defendant in various legal proceedings arising in the
ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, these matters will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position or results of operations.
Environmental
The Company routinely establishes and reviews the adequacy of reserves for
estimated future environmental clean-up costs for properties currently or
previously operated by the Company. Although the Company believes it is in
substantial compliance with environmental protection laws, estimating the
related liability is difficult considering the continual changes in
environmental regulations and the potential identification of new sites.
In connection with most business acquisitions, the Company obtains
contractual indemnifications from the seller related to environmental matters.
These indemnifications generally provide for the reimbursement of environmental
clean-up costs incurred by the Company for events occurring or circumstances
existing prior to the purchase date, whether the event or circumstance was known
or unknown at that time. A substantial portion of the Company's total
environmental exposure is associated with its M-I operations, which are subject
to various indemnifications from former owners.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company has established an environmental
reserve of $12.1 million. This amount reflects the future undiscounted estimated
exposure related to identified properties, without regard to indemnifications
from former owners. While actual future environmental costs may differ from
estimated liabilities recorded at December 31, 2002, the Company does not
believe that these differences will have a material impact on the Company's
financial position or results of operations, subject to the indemnifications in
place. In the event that i) the parties providing the environmental
indemnifications do not fulfill their obligations, and ii) costs incurred to
remediate the identified properties reach estimated maximum exposure limits, the
Company would be required to establish additional environmental reserves of up
to $25.0 million, impacting earnings and cash flows in future periods.
15. SUBSEQUENT EVENT (UNAUDITED)
Subsequent to December 31, 2002, M-I acquired certain oilfield chemical
assets of Dynea International in exchange for cash consideration of $78.6
million. The acquired operations reported revenues of approximately $75.0
million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The transaction was funded with
cash on hand and $37.2 million of borrowings under the Company's revolving
credit agreement.
