To unite into one system or whole; combine: net loss from operations of $3.1 million (($0.14) per common share) from consolidated revenue of $27.5 million. This compares to consolidated net earnings from operations of $3.4 million ($0.15 per common share) from consolidated revenue of $49.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The decline in the Company's financial performance is attributed to the reduction in drilling activity levels in Canada and the United States The United States and Canada share a unique legal relationship. U.S. law looks northward with a mixture of optimism and cooperation, viewing Canada as an integral part of U.S. economic and environmental policy. .

Management Discussion and Analysis Ryan generated $27.5 million in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $49.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2001, a decrease of $22.1 million or 45 percent. Ryan's revenue for the first half of 2002 was comprised of $22.0 million from the provision of MWD/LWD and horizontal and directional drilling services and $5.5 million from the provision of Tru Vu( Well Site Data Management services, equipment sales and licenses ("Tru Vu( WDM (1) (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) A technology that uses multiple lasers and transmits several wavelengths of light (lambdas) simultaneously over a single optical fiber.

Exploration and development expenditures by oil and natural gas companies in the United States and western Canada
Western Canada, commonly referred to as the West decreased during the first half of 2002 as compared to 2001. As a result, demand for drilling related services decreased and competitive pressures increased in both the United States and Canada. Ryan has reduced its staffing levels by 19 percent, lowered its general and administrative support functions, reduced discretionary spending and lowered its anticipated level of capital spending capital spending Spending for long-term assets such as factories, equipment, machinery, and buildings that permits the production of more goods and services in future years. for 2002 to $2.5 million. These actions reduced the Company's expenses by $0.4 million per month and have resulted in restructuring charges restructuring charge The expense of reorganizing a company's operations. A restructuring charge is an infrequent expense that generally results from asset writedowns or facility closings. of $0.5 million during the first two quarters of 2002. Ryan's concurrent At the same time. It implies that multiple processes are taking place simultaneously. See concurrent operation. job capacity as of June 30, 2002 is twenty-four horizontal and directional In one direction. Contrast with omnidirectional. jobs and seventy-five Tru Vu( WDM jobs. This compares to forty-six horizontal and directional jobs and one hundred ten Tru Vu( WDM jobs as of December December: see month. 31, 2001. With equipment available for a concurrent job capacity of forty-six horizontal and directional jobs and one hundred ten Tru Vu( WDM jobs, the Company is positioned to respond to anticipated increases in demand for capacity as drilling activity levels improve in the United States and Canada. Revenue from the Company's operation in the United States was $14.5 million for the first six months of 2002 as compared to $24.4 million for the first six months of 2001, a decrease of $9.9 million or 41 percent.

During the first six months of 2002, oil and natural gas companies drilled 1,716 horizontal and directional wells in the United States as compared to 2,152 during the first six months of 2001, representing a 20 percent decrease in the number of horizontal and directional wells drilled. Ryan's United States average revenue per activity day decreased by 16 percent over the average revenue per activity day achieved during the same period of 2001. In response to lower activity and reduced revenues the Company temporarily adjusted horizontal and directional drilling staffing levels in the United States from a twenty job capacity in the fourth quarter of 2001 to ten jobs as of June 30, 2002. The Company is currently capable of deploying thirty-five Tru Vu( WDM systems as of June 30, 2002, though it continues to own sixty-four Adj. 1. sixty-four - being four more than sixty 64, lxiv cardinal - being or denoting a numerical quantity but not order; "cardinal numbers" Tru Vu( WDM systems.

During the first six months of 2002, oil and natural gas companies drilled 1,904 horizontal and directional wells in Canada as compared to 2,465 during the first six months of 2001, representing a 23 percent decrease in the number of horizontal and directional wells drilled. Ryan's average revenue per activity day in Canada decreased by 6 percent over the average revenue per activity day achieved during the same period of 2001. In response to lower activity levels, the Company temporarily adjusted its horizontal and directional drilling staffing levels in Canada from a twenty-two job capacity in the fourth quarter of 2001 to ten jobs as of June 30, 2002. The Canadian operation has twelve Tru Vu( WDM systems available to provide services in underbalanced drilling ''This article refers to the procedure in oil drilling. For University of Brunei Darussalam, a university in Brunei, please refer to Universiti Brunei Darussalam Underbalanced drilling applications, unchanged from December 31, 2001. The Company's Venezuela revenue decreased by $0.3 million to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001. Ryan continues to view Venezuela as a means to leverage its technology and improve the utilization utilization, n 1. the extent to which a given group uses a particular service in a specified period. Although usually expressed as the number of services used per year per 100 or per 1000 persons eligible for the service, utilization rates may be of its MWD/LWD and Tru Vu( equipment and personnel. MWD/LWD system rentals were 76 percent lower in the first six months of 2002, as compared to the first six months of 2001, as a result of lower oil and natural gas drilling activity in Venezuela. This was offset by Tru Vu( WDM revenues having increased 188 percent during the first six months of 2002, as compared to 2001, as a result of market share improvements. As of June 30, 2002, Ryan had a concurrent job capability of four MWD/LWD systems and thirty-four Tru Vu( WDM systems in Venezuela, as compared to twenty-eight systems as of December 31, 2001.

These expenditures amounted to $23.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $33.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, a decrease of $10.1 million or 31 percent. Direct costs represented 84 percent of revenue during the first six months of 2002 and 67 percent of revenue during the first six months of 2001. This resulted in a gross profit of 16 percent of revenue during the first six months of 2002 as compared to 33 percent for the same period in 2001. The reduced gross profit margin Gross profit margin Gross profit divided by sales, which is equal to each sales dollar left over after paying for the cost of goods sold. gross profit margin A measure calculated by dividing gross profit by net sales. is a result of lower activity, a reduction in rates for the Company's services and excess job capacity both within Ryan and within the industry. General, administrative and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002 were $0.5 million below the expenses for the first six months of 2001 and totaled $4.7 million. As a percentage of revenue these expenses increased from 10 percent of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to 17 percent of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as a result of lower revenues generated during the first quarter of 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001. Restructuring charges of $0.5 million were incurred during the first six months of 2002 and related primarily to severance The act of dividing, or the state of being divided. The term severance has unique meanings in different branches of the law. Courts use the term in both civil and criminal litigation in two ways: first, when dividing a lawsuit into two or more parts, and second, when payments. The amortization of intangible assets Intangible Asset An asset that is not physical in nature. Notes: Examples are things like copyrights, patents, intellectual property, and goodwill. These are the opposite of tangible assets. and property, plant and equipment increased to $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Capital expenditures of $12.4 million incurred during the year ended December 31, 2001 and $1.0 million incurred during the first six months of 2002 accounted for the increase in this expense. The amortization of goodwill, net of income taxes, during the first six months of 2001 was $0.3 million. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company adopted the new provisions of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants The Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA) is the umbrella body for the Chartered Accountant profession in Canada and Bermuda. Membership of the CICA totals 70,000 Chartered Accountants and 8,500 students. accounting standard for Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

This is usually reduced because of poorly estimated losses or gains. 2. and required the Company to adopt a business valuation approach for assessing the carrying value of goodwill. These changes reduced the Company's amortization expense by $0.3 million during the first six months of 2002. As of January January: see month. 1, 2002, these changes also increased the carrying value of intangible assets by $0.7 million, reduced the carrying value of goodwill by $5.9 million, reduced the liability for future income taxes by $0.4 million and reduced shareholders' equity Shareholders' Equity A firms' total assets minus its total liabilities. Equivalently, it is share capital plus retained earnings minus treasury shares. Shareholders' equity is the amount by which a company is financed through common and preferred shares. by $4.8 million. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company also adopted the new provisions of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants accounting standards for accounting for Stock Based Compensation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources During the first six months of 2002, the Company generated $1.4 million in cash flow from operations Cash flow from operations A firm's net cash inflow resulting directly from its regular operations (disregarding extraordinary items such as the sale of fixed assets or transaction costs associated with issuing securities), calculated as the sum of net income plus noncash expenses , incurred $1.0 million in capital expenditures and received $1.3 million in proceeds from the disposal of certain assets.

The Company reduced its long-term debt Long-Term Debt Loans and financial obligations lasting over one year. Notes: For example debts obligations such as bonds and notes which have maturities greater than one year would be considered long-term debt. by $0.2 million during the first six months of 2002. As of June 30, 2002 the Company had working capital of $13.3 million, long-term debt of $10.9 million and shareholder's equity of $50.7 million. As of June 30, 2002 the Company was in compliance with all the provisions of its borrowing obligations. The ability of the Company to remain in compliance with its borrowing covenants is dependant upon Adj. 1. dependant upon - determined by conditions or circumstances that follow; "arms sales contingent on the approval of congress" contingent on, contingent upon, dependant on, dependent on, dependent upon, depending on, contingent future industry conditions. Business Outlook The number of horizontal and directional wells drilled during the first six months of 2002 was 20 percent lower in the United States and 23 percent lower in Canada as compared to the first six months of 2001, as a result of lower prices for oil and natural gas, uncertainty with respect to economic activity and recent changes in financial markets. These factors impacted Ryan's customers' cash flows and influenced their exploration and development expenditures. Future changes in these factors will continue to affect Ryan's customers' cash flows and may adversely affect their ability to fund their operations, which may in turn adversely affect the Company and its foreign operations. The oil and natural gas service industry, of which horizontal and directional drilling and well site data management are a part, is dependent upon these exploration and development expenditures for its revenue sources. Oil and natural gas prices have exhibited considerable volatility Volatility 1. A statistical measure of the tendency of a market or security to rise or fall sharply within a period of time. 2. A variable in option pricing formulas that denotes the extent to which the return of the underlying asset will fluctuate between now and the over time and are expected to continue to be volatile With regard to computer memory, it means "temporary" and not "highly changeable," which is the usual meaning of the word. See volatile memory. 1. (programming) volatile - volatile variable. 2. (storage) volatile - See non-volatile storage. in the future. It is management's belief that the overall level of drilling activity in the market places in which Ryan operates will remain lower in 2002 than those levels experienced during 2001. Management also believes that the Company's focus on improving market share combined with future improvements in the level of drilling activity will result in improvements in the Company's United States and Canadian operations. The Company responds to changing market conditions by managing its concurrent job capacity, capital expenditures and overhead levels to reflect changes in the level of activity. As drilling activity improves, Ryan has retained the ability to increase its concurrent job capacity back to the levels present at December 31, 2001, without significant capital investment. Agreement with Nabors Industries Nabors Industries Ltd. (NYSE: NBR) founded in 1968 as Anglo Energy, Ltd. (formerly AMEX: AEL), and currently based in Hamilton, Bermuda, is an S&P 500 oil, natural gas and geothermal drilling contractor operating on land throughout the Americas, the Middle East, Ltd. On August 12, 2002, the Company entered into a Plan of Arrangement transaction with Nabors Industries Ltd. (Nabors) pursuant to which Nabors will offer $1.85 for each common share of Ryan. Under this arrangement Ryan's shareholders will have the option to elect to receive this consideration in either cash or in exchangeable shares of a Canadian subsidiary of Nabors which are exchangeable into common shares of Nabors. The Plan of Arrangement is subject to approval of the shareholders and optionholders of Ryan, the approval of the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta The Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta is the superior court of the Canadian province of Alberta. Structure
The Anglo-American common-law tradition is built on the doctrine of Stare Decisis ("stand by decided . If the transaction is completed and depending on the comparative value, at closing, of Nabors common shares to the offer of $1.85 for each Ryan common share, a potential impairment in the value of a portion of the goodwill carried on the balance sheet of Ryan could occur. As the existence and determination of such impairment, if any, relies on future events no provision for such future impairment has been recorded.
