Explanatory Note

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) is being filed to amend the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Newpark Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 18, 2023 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of its named executive officers (commonly referred to as a “Say-on-Pay” advisory vote). This Amendment does not amend, modify, or supplement the Original Form 8-K in any other respect.

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

Based on the results of the stockholder vote at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 18, 2023, including the stockholders’ non-binding recommendation to hold future Say-on-Pay advisory votes every one year, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that future Say-on-Pay advisory votes will be conducted annually until the next required stockholder vote on the frequency of advisory votes on named executive officer compensation, which vote is expected to be held at the Company's 2029 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
