What Happened

• RPC, Inc. announced on Feb 17, 2026 that its Board, following a recommendation from the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, appointed Gary Kolstad and Stephen E. Lewis to the Board’s Audit Committee.
• The appointments are effective immediately following each director’s re‑election at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders on April 28, 2026. (Kolstad was previously appointed as an independent director effective July 11, 2025, as reported on a Form 8‑K filed July 14, 2025.)

Key Details

• Date of Board action: February 17, 2026.
• Effective timing: appointments take effect immediately after the April 28, 2026 Annual Meeting re‑elections.
• Individuals appointed: Gary Kolstad (independent director) and Stephen E. Lewis.
• Recommendation: appointments were made upon the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation.

Why It Matters

• The Audit Committee oversees the company’s financial reporting, internal controls and relationship with external auditors; adding experienced independent directors can affect governance and oversight quality.
• The appointments are contingent on shareholder re‑election at the April 28, 2026 meeting, so they are not immediate until that vote occurs.
• The filing does not disclose any compensation or other material changes tied to these committee assignments.
