SCHEDULE 13D
Page 5 of 7
Item 1.  Security and Issuer.
This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 10, 2019 and amended through the date hereof (as so amended, the “Schedule 13D”) and is being filed with the SEC on behalf of North Sound Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NS Manager”), Brian Miller, a United States citizen and North Sound Trading, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“NS Trading” and, together with NS Manager and Mr. Miller, the “Reporting Persons”), relating to the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Flotek Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
Item 3.  Source or Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
The information contained in Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
As of the date hereof, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 6,600,000 shares of Common Stock, which were acquired for aggregate consideration of approximately $14,629,751. The source of the purchase price for the shares of Common Stock was capital contributions from Mr. Miller. No borrowed funds were used to purchase the Common Stock.
Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
The information contained in Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(a)          The aggregate percentage of shares of Common Stock reported as owned by each Reporting Person is based on a total of 71,306,770 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding as of August 4, 2020, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 17, 2020.

Based on calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d), each Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own 6,600,000 shares of Common Stock, constituting approximately 9.3% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

The Reporting Persons may be deemed to constitute a “person” or “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, and the filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission of such beneficial ownership or that the Reporting Persons constitute a person or group.

(b)          By virtue of the relationships between and among the Reporting Persons described in Item 2 of this Schedule 13D, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have the sole power to direct the voting and disposition of the 6,600,000 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
