RPC, Inc. (NYSE:RES) is looking for acquisitions. Ben Palmer, President and CEO said, "Lastly, with Spinnaker innovation essentially complete, we're looking for additional strategic acquisitions to strengthen our business. While RPC currently offers a wide variety of services required by both large and small E&Ps, we see opportunities to increase our scale and broaden our customer relationships.

We are patient buyers and believe a potential silver lining to current industry conditions will be the availability of attractive acquisition targets. In the meantime, our balance sheet is quite strong, supporting our $0.04 per share quarterly cash dividend, which our Board just approved together with opportunistic share buybacks".
