Reports Third Quarter 2016 Results

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, November 1, 2016 - Pioneer Energy Services (NYSE: PES) today reported financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. Notable items include:


•	Production Services Segment revenue up 19% sequentially, with improvements in all business lines, particularly wireline services.


•	Successfully mobilized three domestic drilling rigs from the Bakken to begin work in West Texas and Appalachia.


•	Re-activated one drilling rig in Colombia late in the third quarter and anticipate another rig beginning operations late in the fourth quarter of 2016.


•	Anticipate the sale of three SCR walking rigs for gross proceeds of $11 million in November.

Consolidated Financial Results

Revenues for the third quarter of 2016 were $68.4 million, up 10% from revenues of $62.3 million in the second quarter of 2016 (“the prior quarter”) and down 36% from revenues of $107.5 million in the third quarter of 2015 (“the year-earlier quarter”). The increase from the prior quarter was due to an increase in activity as a result of rising demand for our services, particularly our wireline services.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2016 was $34.6 million, or $0.53 per share, compared with net loss of $30.0 million, or $0.46 per share, in the prior quarter and net loss of $17.5 million, or $0.27 per share, in the year-earlier quarter. The net loss for the third quarter of 2016 includes a $11.8 million valuation allowance

taken against deferred tax assets primarily related to domestic and foreign net operating losses. While these net operating losses have been reduced in our financial statements, they have not expired and remain available to offset future taxable income.

Excluding valuation allowance adjustments on deferred tax assets and the after-tax impact of impairment charges primarily to reduce the carrying values of equipment placed as held for sale to their estimated fair values, our Adjusted Net Loss⁽¹⁾ for the third quarter was $18.9 million, and Adjusted EPS⁽²⁾ was a loss of $0.29 per share. This compares to Adjusted Net Loss of $19.3 million, or $0.30 per share, in the prior quarter and Adjusted Net Loss of $18.5 million, or $0.29 per share, for the year-earlier quarter, which exclude valuation allowance adjustments on deferred tax assets and the after-tax impact of impairment charges and loss on extinguishment of debt.

Third quarter Adjusted EBITDA⁽³⁾ was $3.3 million, down slightly from $3.6 million in the prior quarter and down from $18.8 million in the year-earlier quarter. Third quarter Adjusted EBITDA was down from the year-earlier quarter primarily due to lower revenues from rigs that were earning but not working, as well as reduced activity in our Production Services Segment.

Operating Results

Drilling Services Segment

Revenue for the Drilling Services Segment was $27.5 million in the third quarter, a 2% decrease from the prior quarter and a 33% decrease from the year-earlier quarter. Drilling rig utilization was 38% for the third quarter, down slightly from 39% in the prior quarter and down from 49% in the year-earlier quarter. The decrease from the prior quarter is due to a combination of contract expiration for rigs that were earning but not working and downtime for one rig that is undergoing an upgrade.

Average drilling revenues per day were $25,118 in the third quarter, roughly flat with $25,188 in the prior quarter and down from $25,487 in the year-earlier quarter. Drilling Services Segment margin⁽⁴⁾ per day⁽⁵⁾ was $7,025 in the third quarter, down from $11,879 in the prior quarter and $11,270 in the year-earlier quarter. The decrease in Drilling Services Segment margin per day from both the prior quarter and the year-earlier quarter was primarily due to reduced revenues from rigs that were earning but not working as well

as mobilization costs related to three domestic rigs mobilized from the Bakken to other markets and start up costs for one drilling rig in Colombia.

Since late 2014, term contracts for 19 of our drilling rigs were terminated early, including three that were terminated in early 2016, all of which have now expired. In the first, second and third quarters of 2016, we recognized early termination revenue of $7.1 million, $4.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively. All early contract termination revenue has now been recognized in full.

Currently, we have 13 drilling rigs earning revenues in the U.S., eight of which are under term contracts, and one rig in Colombia earning revenue. Two additional rigs on term contract in Colombia are not earning revenue. We anticipate that one of the two rigs on standby will begin earning revenue late in the fourth quarter of 2016, or possibly the first quarter of 2017.

Production Services Segment

Revenue for the Production Services Segment was $40.9 million in the third quarter, up 19% from the prior quarter and down 38% from the year-earlier quarter. The increase in revenue from the prior quarter is due to an increase in activity for all our production services offerings, with the most significant improvement in wireline services. Production Services Segment margin⁽⁴⁾ as a percentage of revenue was 22% in the third quarter, up from 16% in the prior quarter and down from 27% in the year-earlier quarter. Production Services Segment margin was up as compared to the prior quarter due to an increase in demand for our services as well as the full impact of actions we have taken during the year to reduce our cost structure.

Well servicing average pricing was $496 per hour in the third quarter, up from $485 in the prior quarter and down from $577 in the year-earlier quarter. Well servicing rig utilization was 41% in the third quarter, up slightly from 40% in the prior quarter and down from 62% in the year-earlier quarter. Coiled tubing utilization was 22% in the third quarter, up slightly from 20% in the prior quarter and down from 25% in the year-earlier quarter.

Comments from our President and CEO

“With commodity prices remaining well above the lows seen in the first quarter, demand for our services has continued to improve,” said Wm. Stacy Locke, President and CEO of Pioneer Energy Services. “Higher activity that drove a notable improvement in our Production Services Segment in the third quarter is expected to continue through the fourth quarter and we are optimistic it will offset the seasonal decline we typically experience during that period due to reduced daylight hours, holidays and exhausted customer budgets.

“We are also seeing strong demand for our top-tier AC drilling rigs with 13 of our 16 AC rigs contracted and expectations that our premium equipment will remain highly utilized. During the third quarter, we mobilized three AC rigs that were coming off contracts in the Bakken to begin work with strategic clients in the Appalachian and Permian Basin. We hope to keep one or two of the idle AC rigs in the Bakken; however, thus far the Bakken has been slow to recover. Additionally, we are upgrading one of two 1,000 horsepower pad-optimal AC rigs in the Marcellus to a 1,500 horsepower rig with our latest generation mast and substructure.

“We continue to work to remain cash flow neutral in 2016 through additional asset sales, and expect to generate approximately $11 million in gross proceeds from the sale of three SCR drilling rigs in November. We are having constructive discussions on other non-strategic assets which we hope to monetize in the future to enhance our liquidity as we position the Company to benefit from an ongoing market recovery.”

Fourth Quarter 2016 Guidance

In the fourth quarter of 2016, drilling rig utilization is estimated to average 43% to 45%. Drilling Services Segment margin is estimated to be approximately $6,500 to $7,000 per day in the fourth quarter, which reflects more rigs working at current market dayrates. Production Services Segment revenue in the fourth quarter is estimated to be flat to up approximately 3% as compared to the third quarter of 2016. Production Services Segment margin is estimated to be 20% to 22% of revenues in the fourth quarter.

Liquidity

Working capital at September 30, 2016 was $36.1 million, down from $45.2 million at December 31, 2015. Our cash and cash equivalents were $9.7 million, down from $14.2 million at year-end 2015.

The decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 is primarily due to $25.6 million of cash used for purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by $12.0 million of proceeds from issuance of debt, $7.6 million of cash provided by operating activities, which includes early termination payments received on certain drilling contracts, and $2.7 million of proceeds from the sale of assets. We currently have $17.3 million in committed letters of credit and $111.5 million outstanding under our $175 million revolving credit facility.

Capital Expenditures

Cash capital expenditures in the third quarter were $12.3 million, which included $7.4 million related to final payments on two long-lead time drilling rig packages. We estimate total capital expenditures for 2016 to be $30 million to $32 million, up from prior guidance of $27 million to $29 million, due to certain rig upgrades.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations

Statements we make in this news release that express a belief, expectation or intention, as well as those that are not historical fact, are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, could differ materially from those we express in the following discussion as a result of a variety of factors, including general economic and business conditions and industry trends, levels and volatility of oil and gas prices, the continued demand for drilling services or production services in the geographic areas where we operate, decisions about exploration and development projects to be made by oil and gas exploration and production companies, the highly competitive nature of our business, technological advancements and trends in our industry and improvements in our competitors' equipment, the loss of one or more of our major clients or a decrease in their demand for our services, future compliance with covenants under our senior secured revolving credit facility and our senior notes, operating hazards inherent in our operations, the supply of marketable drilling rigs, well servicing rigs, coiled tubing and wireline units within the industry, the continued availability of drilling rig, well servicing rig, coiled tubing and wireline unit components, the continued availability of qualified personnel, the success or failure of our acquisition strategy, including our ability to finance acquisitions, manage growth and effectively integrate acquisitions, the political, economic, regulatory and other uncertainties encountered by our operations, and changes in, or our failure or inability to comply with, governmental regulations, including those relating to the environment. We have discussed many of these factors in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, including under the headings “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Introductory Note to Part I and “Risk Factors” in Item 1A. These factors are not necessarily all the important factors that could affect us. Other unpredictable or unknown factors could also have material adverse effects on actual results of matters that are the subject of our forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. We advise our shareholders that they should (1) recognize that important factors not referred to above could affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and (2) use caution and common sense when considering our forward-looking statements.

This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. A reconciliation of each such measure to its most directly comparable U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) financial measure, together with an explanation of why management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors, is provided in the following tables.

_________________________________

(1)

Adjusted net loss represents net loss as reported adjusted to exclude impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, and the related tax benefit, net of valuation allowance adjustments on deferred tax assets. We believe that adjusted net loss is a useful measure to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance and to evaluate our long-term financial performance against that of our peers, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted net loss may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of net loss as reported to adjusted net loss is included in the tables to this news release.

(2)

Adjusted (diluted) EPS represents adjusted net loss divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of dilutive securities as applicable. We believe that adjusted (diluted) EPS is a useful measure to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance and to evaluate our long-term financial performance against that of our peers, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted (diluted) EPS may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of diluted EPS as reported to adjusted (diluted) EPS is included in the tables to this news release.

(3)

Adjusted EBITDA represents income (loss) before interest expense, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization, loss on extinguishment of debt and impairments. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that our management uses to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance and to evaluate our long-term financial performance against that of our peers. We believe that this measure is

useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of our core operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies within our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered (a) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), (b) as an indication of cash flows from operating activities or (c) as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss as reported is included in the tables to this news release.

(4)

Drilling Services Segment margin represents contract drilling revenues less contract drilling operating costs. Production Services Segment margin represents production services revenue less production services operating costs. Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin are non-GAAP financial measures which we consider to be important supplemental measures of operating performance. Our management uses these measures to facilitate period-to-period comparisons in operating performance of our reportable segments. We believe that Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin are useful to investors and analysts because they provide a means to evaluate the operating performance of the segments on an ongoing basis using criteria that are used by our internal decision makers. Additionally, the use of these measures highlights operating trends and aids in analytical comparisons. Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of consolidated Drilling Services Segment margin and Production Services Segment margin to net loss as reported is included in the tables to this news release.

This news release also included a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure, Production Services Segment margin for the fourth quarter 2016, which as previously described excludes all other costs or income (including but not limited to bad debt (expense) recovery, gain (loss) on dispositions of property and equipment, impairment charges, other income (expense) and income tax expense or benefit. No reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure was included in the news release due to the variability and difficulty in making an accurate forecast and projection of the excluded information referenced above. Accordingly, we do not believe that reconciling information for such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure would be meaningful.

(5)

Drilling Services Segment margin per day represents the Drilling Services Segment's average revenue per revenue day less average operating costs per revenue day. This news release also included a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure, Drilling Services Segment margin per revenue day for the fourth quarter of 2016, which as previously described, is a calculation of revenues less operating costs, divided by the number of revenue days, and therefore excludes all other costs or income (including but not limited to bad debt (expense) recovery, gain (loss) on dispositions of property and equipment, impairment charges, other income (expense) and income tax expense or benefit. No reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure was included in the news release due to the variability and difficulty in making an accurate forecast and projection of the excluded information referenced above. Accordingly, we do not believe that reconciling information for such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure would be meaningful.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that our management uses to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance and to evaluate our long-term financial performance against that of our peers. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and analysts in allowing for greater transparency of our core operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other companies within our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered (a) in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income (loss), (b) as an indication of cash flows from operating activities or (c) as a measure of liquidity. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss as reported is included in the table on the following page.

(4)Adjusted net loss represents net loss as reported adjusted to exclude impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, and the related tax benefit, net of valuation allowance adjustments on deferred tax assets. We believe that adjusted net loss is a useful measure to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance and to evaluate our long-term financial performance against that of our peers, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted net loss may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of net loss as reported to adjusted net loss is included in the table above.

(5)Adjusted (diluted) EPS represents adjusted net loss divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of dilutive securities as applicable. We believe that adjusted (diluted) EPS is a useful measure to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our core operating performance and to evaluate our long-term financial performance against that of our peers, although it is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Adjusted (diluted) EPS may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
