Flotek Industries, Inc. Regains Full Compliance with New York Stock

Exchange Listing Standards, Scheduled to Ring NYSE Closing Bell on March 28, 2011

HOUSTON, March 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Flotek Industries, Inc. (NYSE: FTK - News) (“Flotek” or the “Company”), a leading provider of a portfolio of innovative oilfield technologies including specialty chemicals, drilling products and artificial lift services, today announced it received notice from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE” or the “Exchange”) that the company has regained compliance with the NYSE’s quantitative continued listing standards. As of March 25, Flotek’s common stock closed at $8.28 per share, providing a market capitalization of over $356 million.

The notice stated that the decision came as a result of Flotek’s consistent, positive performance with respect to the original business plan submission, the previous cure of its share price noncompliance on May 31, 2009, and the achievement of compliance with the NYSE’s minimum market capitalization requirement over the past two quarterly review periods.

“Flotek is pleased to return to a listed company, in good standing, with the New York Stock Exchange,” said John Chisholm, Flotek’s Chairman and President. “We believe this achievement, ahead of the schedule under the original NYSE plan, is testament to the dedication and hard work of the entire Flotek team and a signal that the fundamentals of our company and the performance of our businesses continue to improve.”

In connection with Flotek’s re-emergence as a listed company, in good standing, at the NYSE, the Company’s management team, Board of Directors and key advisors will ring the closing bell at the NYSE on Monday, March 28, 2011. The closing bell ceremony can be seen by clicking on the icon on the Exchange homepage, www.nyse.com.

“We are delighted to be invited to ring the closing bell at one of the world’s most venerable icons of financial stability,” added Chisholm. “It is a privilege to be a listed company of the New York Stock Exchange, an institution that we believe represents credibility in the global financial markets, credibility which Flotek strives to maintain as a key tenet of our culture now and for years to come.”
