**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Plan Participants and Plan Administrator of the

KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Houston, Texas

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2022 (in liquidation) and 2021 (ongoing), and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2022 (in liquidation), 2021 (ongoing) and 2020 (ongoing), and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2022 (in liquidation) and 2021 (ongoing), and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2022 (in liquidation), 2021 (ongoing) and 2020 (ongoing), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Emphasis of Matter - Plan Termination and Liquidation Basis of Accounting**

As further discussed in Notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements, the Company's Board of Directors made the decision to terminate the Plan effective December 31, 2022. As a result, the Plan changed its basis of accounting from the ongoing basis used in presenting the 2021 and 2020 financial statements to the liquidation basis used in presenting the 2022 financial statements. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

**NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**DECEMBER 31, 2022 (IN LIQUIDATION), DECEMBER 31, 2021 (ONGOING) AND DECEMBER 31, 2020 (ONGOING)**

    

**NOTE 1 - GENERAL AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Description of Plan —** On September 13, 2018, KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") adopted the KLX Energy Services Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (as amended from time to time, the "Plan"). The Plan's first option period began on January 1, 2019. The Plan was terminated effective as of December 31, 2022. The following description of the Plan prior to such termination does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Plan, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 4.4 to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed on September 13, 2018 (File No. 333-227321), and Amendment No. 1 to the Plan, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.8 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on July 28, 2020 (File No. 001-38609).

The Company is the Plan sponsor. All active employees (participants) with a minimum of 90 days of service, who have a customary work schedule of at least 20 hours of service per week, and whose customary employment is for five months or more per calendar year, are eligible to participate. Under the Plan, participants may choose to contribute from 2% to 15% (in 1% increments) of their total eligible compensation.

Common stock of the Company is purchased twice each year, the first time for an option period beginning January 1 and ending June 30 and the second time for an option period beginning July 1 and ending December 31. The purchase price is equal to 85% of the fair value of common stock on the last day of each option period. Participants are allocated a pro rata share of stock consistent with the balance of the participant's account. The stock is then issued by the Plan's transfer agent directly to the participant. The maximum number of shares available for each option period to an individual is the largest whole number of shares which, when multiplied by the fair market value of the Company stock at the end of the option period, produces a dollar amount of $12,500 or less.

The Company's stockholders approved Amendment No. 1 to the Plan at the Company's annual meeting on July 24, 2020 to increase the number of shares of the Company's common stock available under the Plan's share reserve.

In addition, the Company temporarily suspended the Plan due to the merger with Quintana Energy Services, Inc. ("QES") that was completed on July, 28, 2020.

The Company's Board of Directors approved the termination of the Plan, effective as of December 31, 2022.

**Stock Subscribed** — Under the Plan, stock is issued to participants subsequent to the end of each option period but valued the last day of the option period. Due to the suspension of the Plan, there was no stock purchased under the Plan that was not distributed to the participants as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. The Company stock is purchased at 85% of its closing quoted market price on the last day of each option period. Amounts representing fractional shares due to employees are carried forward to the following distribution period.

The Plan did not have enough shares reserved to satisfy outstanding options to purchase during the option period ended June 30, 2020, and the Company refunded all participants' contributions for such option period.

------

There were no shares purchased by the Plan for distribution to the participants for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.

**Termination Benefits and Vesting** — Upon termination of employment with the Company, a participant's participation in the Plan will cease immediately and the balance of the participant's withholding account will be returned, without interest. Upon a participant's death, depending on the option elected by the participant, his or her beneficiary will receive any amounts in the participant's withholding account in cash or all contributions will be used to acquire stock at the end of the option period.

**Basis of Accounting** — On December 31, 2022, a decision was made to terminate the Plan. As a result, the 2021 and 2020 financial statements have been prepared on the ongoing basis, and the 2022 financial statements have been prepared on the liquidation basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

**Use of Estimates** — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes in those assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents** — Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less. The Plan's cash and cash equivalents are held in accounts owned by the Company and may not be fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents (which are classified as Level 1 assets within the fair value hierarchy) represent their fair values due to their short-term nature.

**Income Tax** — The Plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and is, therefore, not subject to income taxes. The Plan is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Plan assets consist of cash not yet used to purchase common stock. Such cash remains an asset of the Plan until each semiannual purchase date when the cash is used to purchase and sell shares to the employees.

The Plan Administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken, that would require recognition of a liability or asset, or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits in progress for any tax period.

**Administrative Expenses** — Administrative expenses have been paid directly by the Company and, accordingly, are not reflected in the Plan's financial statements. There is no written agreement requiring the Company to pay these expenses, and the Company may elect to stop paying Plan expenses at any time. The Plan administrator believes that this would not have a materially adverse impact on the Plan.

**NOTE 2 - PLAN TERMINATION**

As noted above, the Company agreed to temporarily suspend the Plan due to the Company's merger with QES that was completed on July, 28, 2020. In accordance with its terms, the Plan would have automatically terminated on December 31, 2028. However, the Plan contains a provision such that it may be earlier terminated by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company's Board of Directors approved the termination of the Plan, effective as of December 31, 2022. In the event of Plan termination, any unused contributions would be returned to the participants but, as a result of the suspension of the Plan in connection with the Company's merger with QES, there were no unused contributions at the time of the termination of the Plan.

------

**NOTE 3 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS**

The Plan has evaluated subsequent events through March 30, 2023, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

------

**SIGNATURES**

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Plan Administrator has duly caused this annual report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
