The Company operates in three reportable segments: Stimulation and Well Intervention Services, Wireline Services and Equipment Manufacturing.

The Company provides hydraulic fracturing coiled tubing and related well intervention services through its Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment to oil and natural gas exploration and production companies.

Stimulation and Well Intervention Services

The Company's Stimulation and Well Intervention Services segment provides hydraulic fracturing and coiled tubing and other well intervention services, with a focus on complex, technically demanding well completions. The Company's customers use the Company's hydraulic fracturing services to enhance the production of oil and natural gas from formations with low permeability, which restricts the natural flow of hydrocarbons. Hydraulic fracturing involves pumping a fluid down a well casing or tubing at sufficient pressure to cause the underground producing formation to fracture, allowing the oil or natural gas to flow more freely. The Company's engineering staff also provides technical evaluation, job design and fluid recommendations for the Company's customers as an integral element of its fracturing service.

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Lee Jackson]

  C&J Energy Services Inc. (NYSE: CJES) undertook an aggressive expansion plan for 2013. That strategy culminated in several deals during the fourth quarter and further plans for 2014. The domestic hydraulic fracturing specialist has spent the past couple of years expanding the business line and, surprisingly, building new equipment. Now with natural gas inventories plunging to five-year lows, C&J Energy is positioned to take advantage of a market where utilization is already firming. Jefferies price target holds steady at $28, and the consensus estimate is $25. Shares closed Friday at $24.50.

  One oil and gas equipment and services player that insiders are active in here is C&J Energy Services (CJES), which provides hydraulic fracturing, coiled tubing, wireline, and other complementary services to oil and gas exploration and production companies in the U.S. Insiders are buying this stock into major weakness, since shares have dropped sharply lower over the last three months by 34%.

  C&J Energy Services has a market cap of $1 billion and an enterprise value of $1.3 billion. This stock trades at a cheap valuation, with a trailing price-to-earnings of 19.8 and a forward price-to-earnings of 9.9. Its estimated growth rate for this year is 10.7%, and for next year it's pegged at 42.2%. This is not a cash-rich company, since the total cash position on its balance sheet is $20.30 million and its total debt is $345.85 million.

  A director just bought 340,887 shares, or about $6.38 million worth of stock, at $18.69 per share.

  From a technical perspective, CJES is currently trending below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bearish. This stock has recently started to rebound higher off its new 52-week low of $16.66 a share. That rebound is now starting to push shares of CJES within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade.

  If you're bullish on CJES, then I would look for long-biased trades as long as this stock is trending above its new 52-week low of $16.66 and then once it breaks out above some key near-term overhead resistance at $19.86 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above that level with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 1.41 million shares. If that breakout hits soon, then CJES will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels $21.66 to its 50-day moving average of $23.63 a share.
