ATLANTA, April 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- RPC, Inc. (NYSE: RES) announced that its earnings release for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020, previously scheduled for tomorrow morning, has been postponed. RPC anticipates that its earnings announcement and conference call will be held on or prior to the Securities and Exchange Commission deadline of May 11, 2020 for the filing of its first quarter 2020 Form 10-Q. An announcement confirming the date, time and call-in information of RPC's earnings announcement and conference call will be provided prior to that time.
During the first quarter of 2020, RPC, along with the rest of the U.S. domestic oilfield, experienced a swift, unexpected downturn in business conditions due to the impacts of the OPEC dispute and the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of the potential near-term weakness in its financial results, RPC continues to quantify the impact of these factors on the fair value of its assets but has not finalized its conclusions. Our conclusions regarding impairment related to the fair value of RPC's assets will be finalized shortly.
Several quarterly financial highlights are shown below:
RPC provides a broad range of specialized oilfield services and equipment primarily to independent and major oilfield companies engaged in the exploration, production and development of oil and gas properties throughout the United States, including the Gulf of Mexico, mid-continent, southwest, Appalachian and Rocky Mountain regions, and in selected international markets. RPC's investor website can be found at rpc.net.

A discussion of factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from management's projections, forecasts, estimates and expectations is contained in RPC's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2019.
