The foregoing discussion contains 'forward-looking statements' within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. There are risks and
uncertainties that could cause future events and results to differ materially
from those anticipated by management in the forward-looking statements
included in this press release. For further information regarding these and
other factors, risks and uncertainties affecting Newpark, reference is made to
the risk factors set forth in the Prospectus included in Newpark's
Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on May 8, 2002 (File No. 333-87840),
and to the section entitled "Forward Looking Statements" on page 17 of that
Prospectus. In particular, as described on page 9 of that Prospectus, any
material decline in the level of oil and gas exploration and production
activity could result in fewer opportunities being available for the service
industry in general and Newpark in particular, and may adversely affect the
demand for our services. In addition, as described on page 13 of that
Prospectus, and rescission or relaxation of governmental regulations,
including in the discharge regulations recently implemented, could reduce the
demand for Newpark's services and reduce Newpark's revenues and income. You
are strongly urged to review these sections for a more detailed discussion of
these risks and uncertainties. Newpark's SEC filings can be obtained at no
charge at http://www.sec.gov , as well as through our Website, http://www.newpark.com .
