Houston, TX based C&J Energy Services, Inc. provides well construction, well completion, well support, and other complementary oilfield services and technologies to oil and gas exploration and production companies throughout the continental United States. On June 17, 2019 – C&J Energy Services (NYSE: CJ) and Keane Group, Inc. (NYSE: FRAC) announced that they have entered into an agreement whereby the companies will combine in an all-stock merger of equals. Under the terms of the merger agreement, C&J shareholders will receive 1.6149 shares of Keane common stock for each share of C&J common stock owned. The merger agreement permits C&J to pay its shareholders a cash dividend of $1.00 per share prior to closing.
