Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On January 27, Superior Energy Services, Inc. (“Superior Energy”) (NYSE: SPN) today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, SESI, L.L.C. (“SESI” or the “Issuer”), has reached an agreement in principle with a steering committee (the “Steering Committee”) of holders of 34.210% of SESI’s $800 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 7.125% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Original Notes”). The Steering Committee is also working together with other noteholders (collectively with the Steering Committee, the “Ad Hoc Group”) and the Ad Hoc Group owns 61.369% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Original Notes. The parties have agreed that SESI will amend certain terms of its previously announced offer to exchange up to $500 million of the Original Notes for up to $500 million of newly issued 7.125% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “New Notes”) and cash (as to be amended as described below, the “Exchange Offer”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in SESI’s offering memorandum and consent solicitation statement, dated as of January 6, 2020 (as amended by the press releases dated January 16, 2020 and January 22, 2020, and as may be further amended or supplemented from time to time).

A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information provided pursuant to this Item 7.01 is “furnished” and shall not be deemed to be “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filings.

Information set forth in this Current Report (including the exhibits attached hereto) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “will,” “would,” and “will be,” and variations of such words and similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Such statements are subject to significant risks, assumptions and uncertainties, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to the settlement of the Exchange Offer. A discussion of factors that may affect future results is contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s periodic filings with the SEC. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K may not in fact occur. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except to the extent required under federal securities laws.
