Note 1. Company Overview

Stewart & Stevenson LLC, headquartered in Houston, Texas, was formed for the purpose of acquiring from Stewart & Stevenson Services, Inc. and its affiliates on January 23, 2006 substantially all of their equipment, aftermarket parts and service and rental businesses that primarily served the oil and gas industry. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “Stewart & Stevenson,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Stewart & Stevenson LLC and its subsidiaries.

On February 26, 2007, we acquired substantially all of the operating assets and assumed certain liabilities of Crown Energy Technologies, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Crown”), which we refer to as the “Crown Acquisition.” Crown, which was headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, had multiple U.S. operations. Crown manufactured drilling, well servicing and workover rigs, stimulation equipment and provided related parts and services.

On March 23, 2011, we acquired 100% of the stock of EMDSI-Hunt Power, L.L.C. (“EMDSI”) in an all cash transaction from ITOCHU Corporation of Japan (“ITOCHU”), which we refer to as the “EMDSI Acquisition.” EMDSI, which is based in Harvey, Louisiana, specializes in the marketing and distribution of medium speed diesel engines for marine propulsion, drilling and power generation applications and is a provider of aftermarket parts and services.

We are a leading designer, manufacturer and provider of specialized equipment and aftermarket parts and service for the oil and gas and other industries. Our wide range of products covers hydraulic fracturing, well stimulation, workover, intervention and drilling operations. These products include well stimulation equipment, pumping, acidizing, coiled tubing, cementing and nitrogen units, drilling rigs, workover rigs, power generation systems and electrical support and distribution systems, as well as engines, transmissions, prime movers and material handling equipment. We have a substantial installed base of products, which provides us with significant opportunities for recurring, higher-margin aftermarket parts and service revenues from customers in the oil and gas, power generation and various other industries. In addition, we provide rental equipment to our customers, including generator sets, air compressors, rail car movers and material handling equipment.
