See accompanying notes. 4 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION Transocean Inc. (formerly known as "Transocean Sedco Forex Inc.", together with its subsidiaries and predecessors, unless the context requires otherwise, the "Company") is a leading international provider of offshore and inland marine contract drilling services for oil and gas wells. As of June 30, 2002, the Company owned, had partial ownership interests in or managed more than 150 mobile offshore and barge drilling units. The Company contracts its drilling rigs, related equipment and work crews primarily on a dayrate basis to drill oil and gas wells. On January 31, 2001, the Company completed a merger transaction (the "R&B Falcon merger") with R&B Falcon Corporation ("R&B Falcon"). As a result of the merger, R&B Falcon became an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The merger was accounted for as a purchase with the Company as the accounting acquiror. The condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2001 include five months of operating results and cash flows for R&B Falcon. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The equity method of accounting is used for investments in joint ventures owned 50 percent or less and for investments in joint ventures owned more than 50 percent where the Company does not have significant control over the day-to-day operations of the joint venture. NOTE 2 - GENERAL BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION - The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared without audit in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S.") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, pursuant to such rules and regulations, these financial statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002 or for any future period. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, materials and supplies obsolescence, investments, intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes, financing operations, workers' insurance, pensions and other post-retirement and employment benefits and contingent liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from such estimates. SUPPLEMENTARY CASH FLOW INFORMATION - Cash payments for interest and income taxes, net, were $109.8 million and $44.2 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and $158.7 million and $46.5 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2001. GOODWILL - Prior to the implementation of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (see "-New Accounting Pronouncements"), the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired was accounted for as goodwill and was amortized on a straight-line basis based on a 40-year life. The amortization period was based on the nature of the offshore drilling industry, long-lived drilling equipment and the long-standing relationships with core customers. 5 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) During the first quarter of 2002, the Company performed the initial test of impairment of goodwill on its two reporting units, "International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services" and "Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water." The test was applied utilizing the fair value of the reporting units as of January 1, 2002 and was determined based on a combination of each reporting unit's discounted cash flows and publicly traded company multiples and acquisition multiples of comparable businesses. There was no goodwill impairment for the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services reporting unit. However, because of continued deterioration in the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business segment since the completion of the R&B Falcon merger, a $1,363.7 million impairment of goodwill was recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the six months ended June 30, 2002. The Company's goodwill balance, after giving effect to the goodwill write down, is $5.1 billion as of June 30, 2002. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows (in millions):
Balance at Loss on Balance at January 1, 2002 Impairment June 30, 2002 ---------------- ----------- -------------- International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services $ 4,721.1 $ - $ 4,721.1 Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water 1,745.6 (1,363.7) 381.9 ---------------- ----------- -------------- $ 6,466.7 $ (1,363.7) $ 5,103.0 ================ =========== ==============
6 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) Net income and earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 adjusted for goodwill amortization are as follows (in millions):

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS - The carrying value of long-lived assets, principally property and equipment, is reviewed for potential impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets or group of assets may not be recoverable. For property and equipment held for use, the determination of recoverability is made based upon the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related asset. Property and equipment held for sale are recorded at the lower of net book value or net realizable value. See "-New Accounting Pronouncements." 7 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) CAPITALIZED INTEREST - Interest costs for the construction and upgrade of qualifying assets are capitalized. The Company recorded $9.4 million and $30.5 million in capitalized interest costs on construction work in progress for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. No interest cost was capitalized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. CHANGE IN ESTIMATE - As a result of the R&B Falcon merger, the Company conformed its policies relating to estimated rig lives and salvage values. Estimated useful lives of drilling units now range from 18 to 35 years, reflecting maintenance history and market demand for these drilling units, buildings and improvements from 10 to 30 years and machinery and equipment from four to 12 years. Depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 was reduced by approximately $6.4 million (net $0.02 per diluted share) and $10.6 million (net $0.03 per diluted share), respectively, as a result of conforming these policies. INCOME TAXES - Income taxes have been provided based upon the tax laws and rates in the countries in which operations are conducted and income is earned. The income tax rates imposed by these taxing authorities vary substantially. Taxable income may differ from pre-tax income for financial accounting purposes. There is no expected relationship between the provision for income taxes and income before income taxes because the countries have different taxation regimes, which vary not only with respect to nominal rate, but also in terms of the availability of deductions, credits and other benefits. Variations also arise because income earned and taxed in any particular country or countries may fluctuate from period to period. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME - The components of total comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, are as follows (in millions):
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, ------------------------ ----------------------- 2002 2001 2002 2001 ----------- ----------- ---------- ----------- Net income (loss) $ 80.0 $ 68.5 $(1,206.4) $ 99.0 Gain on terminated interest rate swaps - - - 4.1 Amortization of gain on terminated interest rate swaps - (0.1) (0.1) (0.1) Change in unrealized loss on cash flow hedges - 0.9 - (0.5) Change in unrealized loss on securities available for sale - 0.7 0.1 (0.4) Change in share of unrealized loss in unconsolidated joint venture's interest rate swaps (1.0) - 2.1 - ----------- ----------- ---------- ----------- Total comprehensive income (loss) $ 79.0 $ 70.0 $(1,204.3) $ 102.1 =========== =========== ========== ===========
The components of accumulated other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 are as follows (in millions):

8 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) SEGMENTS - The Company's operations are aggregated into two reportable segments: (i) International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services and (ii) Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water. The Company provides services with different types of drilling equipment in several geographic regions. The location of the Company's operating assets and the allocation of resources to build or upgrade drilling units is determined by the activities and needs of customers. See Note 7. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION - The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results of operations for the interim periods. Such adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise identified. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are reviewed at least annually for impairment. The amortization provisions of SFAS 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002. In conjunction with the adoption of this statement, the Company has discontinued the amortization of goodwill. Application of the non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 for goodwill is expected to result in an increase in operating income of approximately $155 million in 2002. See "-Goodwill." In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 supersedes SFAS 121, Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") 30, Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. SFAS 144 retains the fundamental provisions of SFAS 121 for recognition and measurement of long-lived asset impairment and for the measurement of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and the basic requirements of APB 30. In addition to these fundamental provisions, SFAS 144 provides guidance for determining whether long-lived assets should be tested for impairment and specific criteria for classifying assets to be disposed of as held for sale. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted the statement as of January 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement had no material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. This statement eliminates the requirement under SFAS 4 to aggregate and classify all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt as an extraordinary item, net of related income tax effect. This statement also amends SFAS 13 to require certain lease modifications with economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions be accounted for in the same manner as sale-leaseback transactions. In addition, SFAS 145 requires reclassification of gains and losses in all prior periods presented in comparative financial statements related to debt extinguishment that do not meet the criteria for extraordinary item in APB 30. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 with early adoption encouraged. The Company will adopt SFAS 145 effective January 1, 2003. Management does not expect adoption of this statement to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 146, Obligations Associated with Disposal Activities, which is effective for disposal activities initiated after December 15, 2002, with early application encouraged. SFAS 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." Under this statement, a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity would be recognized and measured at its fair value when it is incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit plan. Under SFAS 146, severance pay would be recognized over time rather than up front provided the benefit arrangement requires employees to render future service beyond a "minimum retention period", which would be based on the legal notification period, or if there is no such requirement, 60 days, thereby allowing a liability to be recorded over the 9 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) employees' future service period. The Company will adopt SFAS 146 effective with disposal activities initiated after December 15, 2002. Management does not expect adoption of this statement to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform with the current period's presentation. NOTE 3 - BUSINESS COMBINATION On January 31, 2001, the Company completed a merger transaction with R&B Falcon, in which an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into R&B Falcon. As a result of the merger, R&B Falcon common shareholders received 0.5 newly issued ordinary shares of the Company for each R&B Falcon share. The Company issued approximately 106 million ordinary shares in exchange for the issued and outstanding shares of R&B Falcon and assumed warrants and options exercisable for approximately 13 million ordinary shares. The ordinary shares issued in exchange for the issued and outstanding shares of R&B Falcon constituted approximately 33 percent of the Company's outstanding ordinary shares after the merger. The Company accounted for the merger using the purchase method of accounting with the Company treated as the accounting acquiror. The purchase price of $6.7 billion is comprised of the calculated market capitalization of the Company's ordinary shares issued at the time of merger with R&B Falcon of $6.1 billion and the estimated fair value of R&B Falcon stock options and warrants at the time of the merger of $0.6 billion. The market capitalization of the Company's ordinary shares issued was calculated using the average closing price of the Company's ordinary shares for a period immediately before and after August 21, 2000, the date the merger was announced. The purchase price included, at estimated fair value at January 31, 2001, current assets of $672 million, drilling and other property and equipment of $4,010 million, other assets of $160 million and the assumption of current liabilities of $338 million, other net long-term liabilities of $242 million and long-term debt of $3,206 million. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired was $5,630 million, which was accounted for as goodwill and is reviewed for impairment annually in accordance with SFAS 142. See Note 2. In conjunction with the R&B Falcon merger, the Company established a liability of $16.5 million for the estimated severance-related costs associated with the involuntary termination of 569 R&B Falcon employees pursuant to management's plan to consolidate operations and administrative functions post-merger. Included in the 569 planned involuntary terminations were 387 employees engaged in the Company's land drilling business in Venezuela. The Company has suspended active marketing efforts to divest this business and, as a result, the estimated liability was reduced by $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2001 with an offset to goodwill. Through June 30, 2002 all required severance-related costs were paid to 182 employees whose positions were eliminated as a result of this plan. Unaudited pro forma combined operating results of the Company and R&B Falcon assuming the merger was completed as of January 1, 2001 are summarized as follows (in millions, except per share data):
Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 ---------------- Operating revenues $ 1,428.1 Operating income 252.1 Net income from continuing operations 102.0 Basic earnings per share $ 0.32 Diluted earnings per share 0.31

Commercial Paper Program - The Company's Revolving Credit Agreements, a $550.0 million five-year revolving credit agreement dated December 29, 2000 and a $250.0 million 364-day revolving credit agreement dated December 27, 2001, provide liquidity for commercial paper borrowings. At June 30, 2002, no amounts were outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program or under the Revolving Credit Agreements. Term Loan Agreement - The Company is party to an amortizing unsecured five-year term loan agreement dated as of December 16, 1999. Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement bear interest at the Company's option, at a base rate or London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a margin (0.70 percent per annum at June 30, 2002) that varies depending on the Company's senior unsecured public debt rating. The debt began to amortize in March 2002, at a rate of $25.0 million per quarter in 2002. In 2003 and 2004, the debt amortizes at a rate of $37.5 million per quarter. As of June 30, 2002, $350.0 million was outstanding under this agreement. Exchange Offer - In March 2002, the Company completed exchange offers and consent solicitations for the 6.5%, 6.75%, 6.95%, 7.375%, 9.125% and 9.5% notes of R&B Falcon. As a result of these exchange offers and consent solicitations, approximately $234.5 million, $342.3 million, $247.8 million $246.5 million, $76.9 million, and $289.8 million principal amount of the outstanding 6.5%, 6.75%, 6.95%, 7.375%, 9.125% and 9.5% notes, respectively, of R&B Falcon were exchanged for newly issued 6.5%, 6.75%, 6.95%, 7.375%, 9.125% and 9.5% notes of the Company having the same principal amount, interest rate, redemption terms and payment and maturity dates (and accruing interest from the last date for which interest had been paid on the R&B Falcon notes). Because the holders of a majority in principal amount of each of these series of notes consented to the proposed amendments to the applicable indenture pursuant to which the notes were issued, some covenants, restrictions and events of default were eliminated from the indentures with respect to these series of notes. After the exchange approximately $5.0 million, $7.7 million, $2.2 million, $3.5 million, $10.2 million and $10.2 million principal amount of the outstanding 6.5%, 6.75%, 6.95%, 7.375%, 9.125% and 9.5% notes, respectively, not exchanged remain the obligation of R&B Falcon. These notes are combined with the notes of the corresponding series issued by the Company in the above table. In connection with the exchange offers, an aggregate of $8.3 million in consent payments was made by R&B Falcon to holders of R&B Falcon notes whose notes were tendered (and not validly withdrawn) within the required time period and accepted for exchange. The consent payments will be amortized as an increase to interest expense over the remaining term of the respective notes using the interest method. As a result of this amortization, interest expense for 2002 is expected to increase approximately $1.3 million. 12 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) Secured Rig Financing - In January 2002, the Company exercised its call option under the financing arrangement to repay the financing on the Trident 16 prior to the expiration of the scheduled term. The aggregate principal amount outstanding was $32.2 million. The premium paid as a result of the call option of approximately $2 million was recorded as an increase in the net book value of the Trident 16. In March 2002, the Company also exercised its call option to repay the financing on the Trident IX prior to the expiration of the scheduled term. The aggregate principal amount outstanding was $14.9 million. The premium paid as a result of the call option of approximately $0.5 million was recorded as an increase in the net book value of the Trident IX. Redeemed and Repurchased Debt - On April 10, 2001, R&B Falcon acquired pursuant to a tender offer all of the approximately $400.0 million principal amount outstanding 11.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2009 of its affiliate, RBF Finance Co., at 122.51 percent, or $1,225.10 per $1,000 principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. On April 6, 2001, RBF Finance Co. also redeemed all of the approximately $400.0 million principal amount outstanding 11% Senior Secured Notes due 2006 at 125.282 percent, or $1,252.82 per $1,000 principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and R&B Falcon redeemed all of the approximately $200.0 million principal amount outstanding 12.25% Senior Notes due 2006 at 130.675 percent or $1,306.75 per $1,000 principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company funded the redemption from the issuance of the 6.625% Notes and 7.5% Notes in April 2001. In the second quarter of 2001, the Company recognized an extraordinary loss, net of tax, of $18.9 million ($0.06 per diluted share) on the early extinguishment of this debt. On March 30, 2001, pursuant to an offer made in connection with the Company's acquisition of R&B Falcon, Cliffs Drilling Company ("Cliffs Drilling"), a wholly owned subsidiary of R&B Falcon, acquired approximately $0.1 million of the 10.25% Senior Notes due 2003 at an amount equal to 101 percent of the principal amount. On May 18, 2001, Cliffs Drilling redeemed all of the approximately $200.0 million principal amount outstanding 10.25% Senior Notes due 2003, at 102.5 percent, or $1,025.00 per $1,000 principal amount, plus interest accrued to the redemption date. As a result, the Company recognized an extraordinary gain, net of tax, of $1.6 million ($0.01 per diluted share) in the second quarter of 2001 relating to the early extinguishment of this debt.

13 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) NOTE 6 - INTEREST RATE SWAPS In February 2002, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements with a group of banks in the aggregate notional amount of $900.0 million relating to the Company's $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Notes due April 2005, $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.95% Senior Notes due April 2008 and $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.5% Senior Notes due December 2008. The objective of each transaction is to protect the debt against changes in fair value due to changes in the benchmark interest rate. Under each interest rate swap, the Company receives the fixed rate equal to the coupon of the hedged item and pays the floating rate (LIBOR) plus a margin of 246 basis points, 171 basis points and 413 basis points, respectively, which are designated as the respective benchmark interest rates, on each of the interest payment dates until maturity of the respective notes. The hedges are considered perfectly effective against changes in the fair value of the debt due to changes in the benchmark interest rates over their term. As a result, the shortcut method applies and there is no need to periodically reassess the effectiveness of the hedges during the term of the swaps. At June 30, 2002, the market value of the Company's outstanding interest rate swaps was a net asset of $63.0 million and was included in other assets, with corresponding increases to long-term debt and debt due within one year, as appropriate. Deepwater Drilling L.L.C., an unconsolidated subsidiary in which the Company has a 50 percent ownership interest, has entered into interest rate swaps with aggregate market values netting to a liability of $7.9 million at June 30, 2002. The Company's interest in these swaps has been included in accumulated other comprehensive income with a corresponding reduction to investments in and advances to joint ventures. NOTE 7 - SEGMENTS The Company's operations are aggregated into two reportable segments: (i) International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services and (ii) Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water. The International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment consists of high-specification floaters, other floaters, non-U.S. jackups, other mobile offshore drilling units and other assets used in support of offshore drilling activities and offshore support services. The Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment consists of jackup and submersible drilling rigs and inland drilling barges located in the U. S. Gulf of Mexico and Trinidad, as well as land drilling units located in Venezuela. The Company provides services with different types of drilling equipment in several geographic regions. The location of the Company's rigs and the allocation of resources to build or upgrade rigs is determined by the activities and needs of customers. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company changed the composition of its reportable segments with the move of the responsibility for its Venezuela land drilling operations to the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment. Prior periods have been restated to reflect the change. 14 TRANSOCEAN INC.

NOTE 8 - ASSET DISPOSITIONS AND IMPAIRMENT LOSS In June 2002, the Company sold a jackup rig, the RBF 209, and recognized a net after-tax loss of $1.5 million. In March 2002, the Company sold two semisubmersible rigs, the Transocean 96 and Transocean 97, for net proceeds of $30.7 million, resulting in a net after-tax gain of $1.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company sold certain other non-strategic assets acquired in the R&B Falcon merger and certain other assets held for sale for net proceeds of approximately $14.7 million, resulting in a net after-tax gain of $0.7 million. In March 2002, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge in the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment of $1.1 million. The impairment, relating to an asset held for sale, resulted from deterioration in current market conditions. The impairment was determined and measured based on an offer from a potential buyer. In February 2001, Sea Wolf Drilling Limited ("Sea Wolf"), a joint venture in which the Company holds a 25 percent interest, sold two semisubmersible rigs, the Drill Star and Sedco Explorer, to Pride International, Inc. In the first quarter of 2001, the Company recognized accelerated amortization of the deferred gain related to the Sedco Explorer of $18.5 million ($0.06 per diluted share), which is included in gain from sale of assets. The Company continued to operate the Drill Star, which has been renamed the Pride North Atlantic, under a bareboat charter agreement until October 2001, at which time the rig was returned to its owner. The amortization of the Drill Star's deferred gain was 15 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) accelerated and produced incremental gains in the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 of $13.7 million ($0.04 per diluted share) and $22.7 million ($0.07 per diluted share), respectively, which is included as a reduction of operating and maintenance expense. NOTE 9 - EARNINGS PER SHARE The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows (in millions, except per share data):

Ordinary shares subject to issuance pursuant to the conversion features of the Company's convertible debentures are not included in the calculation of adjusted weighted-average shares and assumed conversions for diluted earnings per share because the effect of including those shares is anti-dilutive. NOTE 10 - CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings - The Company was a defendant in Bryant, et al. v. R&B Falcon Drilling USA, Inc., et al. in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. R&B Falcon Drilling USA is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of R&B Falcon. In this suit, the plaintiffs alleged that R&B Falcon Drilling USA, the Company and a number of other offshore drilling contractors with operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico engaged in a conspiracy to depress wages and benefits paid to certain of their offshore employees. The plaintiffs contended that this alleged conduct violated federal antitrust law and constituted unfair trade practices and wrongful employment acts under state law. The plaintiffs sought treble damages, attorneys' fees and costs on behalf of themselves and an alleged class of offshore workers, along with an injunction against exchanging certain wage and benefit information with other offshore drilling contractors named as defendants. In May 2001, the Company reached an agreement in principle with the plaintiffs' counsel to settle all claims, 16 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) pending Court approval of the settlement. In July 2001, before the Court had considered the proposed settlement, the case, along with a number of unrelated cases also pending in the federal court in Galveston, was transferred to a federal judge sitting in Houston as a docket equalization measure. The judge approved the settlement, and the funds were deposited with the court in June 2002. The terms of the settlement have been reflected in the Company's results of operations for the first quarter of 2001. The settlement did not have a material adverse effect on its business or consolidated financial position. In December 1998, Mobil North Sea Limited ("Mobil") purportedly terminated its contract for use of the Jack Bates based on failure of two mooring lines while anchor recovery operations at a Mobil well location had been suspended during heavy weather. The Company did not believe that Mobil had the right to terminate this contract. The Company later recontracted the Jack Bates to Mobil at a lower dayrate. The Company filed a request for arbitration with the London Court of International Arbitration seeking damages for the termination, and Mobil in turn counterclaimed against the Company seeking damages for the Company's alleged breaches of the original contract. The case was settled in July 2002 and the proceedings dismissed. The ultimate outcome of this case did not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or consolidated financial position. In March 1997, an action was filed by Mobil Exploration and Producing U.S. Inc. and affiliates, St. Mary Land & Exploration Company and affiliates and Samuel Geary and Associates, Inc. against Cliffs Drilling, its underwriters and insurance broker in the 16th Judicial District Court of St. Mary Parish, Louisiana. The plaintiffs alleged damages amounting to in excess of $50 million in connection with the drilling of a turnkey well in 1995 and 1996. The case was tried before a jury in January and February 2000, and the jury returned a verdict of approximately $30 million in favor of the plaintiffs for excess drilling costs, loss of insurance proceeds, loss of hydrocarbons and interest. The Company has appealed such judgment. The Company believes that all but potentially the portion of the verdict representing excess drilling costs of approximately $4.7 million is covered by relevant primary and excess liability insurance policies of Cliffs Drilling; however, the insurers and underwriters have denied coverage. Cliffs Drilling has instituted litigation against those insurers and underwriters to enforce its rights under the relevant policies. The Company does not expect that the ultimate outcome of this case will have a material adverse effect on its business or consolidated financial position. The Company has certain other actions or claims pending that have been previously discussed and reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2002, its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 and the Company's other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There have been no material developments in these previously reported matters. The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in a number of other lawsuits, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of the Company's business. The Company does not believe that ultimate liability, if any, resulting from any such other pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on its business or consolidated financial position. Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds - The Company had letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2002 totaling $63.9 million. These letters of credit outstanding guarantee various contract bidding and insurance activities. In January 2002, the Company terminated its $70.0 million letter of credit facility secured by mortgages on five drilling units, the J.W. McLean, J.T. Angel, Randolph Yost, D.R. Stewart and George H. Galloway. As is customary in the contract drilling business, the Company also has various surety bonds totaling $221.9 million in place that secure customs obligations relating to the importation of rigs as well as certain performance and other obligations. 17 TRANSOCEAN INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In July 2002, the Company announced that it plans to pursue a divestiture of its Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business. Under this plan, the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business would be separated from the Company and established as a publicly traded company. The Company currently anticipates that it will establish R&B Falcon as the entity that owns this business. The Company plans to transfer assets not used in this business from R&B Falcon, which will be renamed in connection with the transaction, to the Company's other subsidiaries, and these internal transfers will not affect the consolidated financial statements of Transocean. The initial public offering of that company is currently being prepared. The Company anticipates completing the initial public offering when market conditions warrant, subject to various factors. Given the current general uncertainty in the equity markets, the Company is unsure when the transaction could be completed on terms acceptable to it. The Company expects to sell a portion of its interest in R&B Falcon in the initial public offering. In July 2002, the Company received a $4.2 million settlement of a loss of hire insurance claim for an incident that occurred in 1998 in which the Sedco 710 was damaged from a collision with a supply boat. The settlement will be recorded in operating revenues in the third quarter of 2002. 18 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. OVERVIEW Transocean Inc. (formerly known as "Transocean Sedco Forex Inc.", together with its subsidiaries and predecessors, unless the context requires otherwise, the "Company," "Transocean," "we," "us" or "our") is a leading international provider of offshore and inland marine contract drilling services for oil and gas wells. As of July 31, 2002, we owned, had partial ownership interests in or managed more than 150 mobile offshore and barge drilling units. As of this date, our active fleet of core assets consisted of 31 high-specification drillships and semisubmersibles ("floaters"), 29 other floaters, 52 jackup rigs, 35 drilling barges, four tenders and three submersible drilling rigs. In addition, the fleet included non-core assets consisting of a platform drilling rig, a mobile offshore production unit and nine land drilling rigs in Venezuela. We contract our drilling rigs, related equipment and work crews primarily on a dayrate basis to drill oil and gas wells. We also provide additional services, including management of third-party well service activities. On January 31, 2001, we completed a merger transaction with R&B Falcon Corporation ("R&B Falcon"). At the time of the merger, R&B Falcon owned, had partial ownership interests in, operated or had under construction more than 100 mobile offshore drilling units and other units utilized in the support of offshore drilling activities. As a result of the merger, R&B Falcon became our indirect wholly owned subsidiary. The merger was accounted for as a purchase and we were the accounting acquiror. The condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 include two and five months, respectively, of operating results and cash flows for R&B Falcon. On May 9, 2002, we changed our name from Transocean Sedco Forex Inc. to Transocean Inc. On May 9, 2002, our Board of Directors voted to discontinue the payment of a cash dividend after the cash dividend payable on June 13, 2002 to shareholders of record on May 30, 2002. Our operations are aggregated into two reportable segments: (i) International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services and (ii) Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water. The International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment consists of high-specification floaters, other floaters, non-U.S. jackups, other mobile offshore drilling units and other assets used in support of offshore drilling activities and offshore support services. The Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment consists of jackup and submersible drilling rigs and inland drilling barges located in the U. S. Gulf of Mexico and Trinidad, as well as land drilling units located in Venezuela. We provide services with different types of drilling equipment in several geographic regions. The location of our rigs and the allocation of resources to build or upgrade rigs is determined by the activities and needs of our customers. Effective January 1, 2002, we changed the composition of our reportable segments with the move of the responsibility for our Venezuela land drilling operations to the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment. Prior periods have been restated to reflect the change. In July 2002, we announced plans to pursue a divestiture of our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business. Under this plan, our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business would be separated from Transocean and established as a publicly traded company. We currently anticipate that we will establish R&B Falcon as the entity that owns this business. We plan to transfer assets not used in this business from R&B Falcon, which will be renamed in connection with the transaction, to our other subsidiaries, and these internal transfers will not affect the consolidated financial statements of Transocean. The initial public offering is currently being prepared. We anticipate completing the initial public offering when market conditions warrant, subject to various factors. Given the current general uncertainty in the equity markets, we are unsure when the transaction could be completed on terms acceptable to us. We expect to sell a portion of our interest in R&B Falcon in the initial public offering. 19 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, materials and supplies obsolescence, investments, intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes, financing operations, workers' insurance, pensions and other post-retirement and employment benefits and contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following are our most critical accounting policies. These policies require significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Allowance for doubtful accounts - We establish reserves for doubtful accounts on a case-by-case basis when we believe the required payment of specific amounts owed to us is unlikely to occur. We derive a majority of our revenue from services to international oil companies and government-owned or government-controlled oil companies. Our receivables are concentrated in various countries. We generally do not require collateral or other security to support customer receivables. If the financial condition of our customers was to deteriorate or their access to freely convertible currency was restricted, and these developments resulted in impairment of their ability to make the required payments, we may be required to make additional allowances. Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets - We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. While we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, should we determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of our net recorded amount, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would increase income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax asset in the future, we would be required to make an adjustment to the valuation allowance. This would reduce income in the period such determination was made. Goodwill impairment - Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 142, Goodwill and Other Intangibles. As a result of this statement, we no longer amortize goodwill but will perform an annual test of impairment. Because our business is cyclical in nature, goodwill could be significantly impaired depending on when in the business cycle the assessment is performed. During the first quarter of 2002, we performed the initial test of impairment of goodwill on our two reporting units, "International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services" and "Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water." The test was applied utilizing the fair value of the reporting units as of January 1, 2002 and was determined based on a combination of each reporting unit's discounted cash flows and publicly traded company multiples and acquisition multiples of comparable businesses. There was no goodwill impairment for the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services reporting unit. However, because of continued deterioration in the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business segment since the completion of the R&B Falcon merger, we recognized a $1,363.7 million impairment of goodwill as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the quarter ended March 31, 2002. Our goodwill balance, after giving effect to the goodwill write down, is $5.1 billion as of June 30, 2002. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. 20 Contingent liabilities - We establish reserves for estimated loss contingencies when we believe a loss is probable and we can reasonably estimate the amount of the loss. Revisions to contingent liabilities are reflected in income in the period in which different facts or information become known or circumstances change that affect our previous assumptions with respect to the likelihood or amount of loss. Reserves for contingent liabilities are based upon our assumptions and estimates regarding the probable outcome of the matter. Should the outcome differ from our assumptions and estimates, we would be required to make revisions to the estimated reserves for contingent liabilities. Contract preparation and mobilization revenues and expenses - Costs we incur to prepare and mobilize drilling units for new drilling contracts are deferred from the date we have a firm commitment from the customer and recognized as operating and maintenance expense over the estimated primary term of the drilling contract. Revenues we earned during or as a result of the contract preparation and mobilization periods are also deferred and recognized over the estimated primary term of the drilling contract. If a customer prematurely terminates the contract, we would recognize any unamortized deferred costs and revenues in the period the contract was terminated. OPERATING RESULTS QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 Our results of operations are aggregated into two segments: (i) International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services and (ii) Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water. Operating income (loss) before general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $185.9 million and $156.3 million, respectively, in our International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment and $(30.9) million and $36.5 million, respectively, in our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment.
Three Months Ended June 30, ---------------------- % 2002 2001 Change Change ---------- ---------- -------- ------- (In millions, except % change) OPERATING REVENUES International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services $ 609.1 $ 598.6 $ 10.5 1.8% Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water 37.1 153.6 (116.5) (75.8)% ---------- ---------- -------- ------- $ 646.2 $ 752.2 $(106.0) (14.1)% ========== ========== ======== =======
The increase in International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services operating revenues resulted primarily from $26 million in revenues from two newbuilds placed into service subsequent to the second quarter of 2001 and $5 million in revenues from two jackup rigs transferred into this segment from the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment. These increases were partly offset by a $12 million decrease in revenues from three rigs transferred to assets held for sale subsequent to the second quarter of 2001, a $7 million decrease in revenues from two rigs sold subsequent to the second quarter of 2001, a $13 million decrease in revenues from three leased rigs returned to their owners and an $11 million decrease in revenues related to the Deepwater Frontier (See " - Related Party Transactions") following the expiration of our lease with a related party late in 2001. Revenues for the remaining core assets in this segment increased $37.3 million. Average dayrates for these core assets increased from $84,600 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to $93,700 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 while utilization for these core assets decreased from 81 percent for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to 79 percent for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Operating revenues for non-core assets in this segment decreased $14 million and resulted primarily from the sale in the fourth quarter of 2001 of RBF FPSO L.P., which owned the Seillean, and the winding up of our turnkey drilling business early in 2001. The decrease in the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water operating revenues resulted primarily from the continued weakness of the Gulf of Mexico shallow and inland water market segment, a decline that began in mid-2001, and the transfer of two jackup rigs from this segment into the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment, which represented a decrease of $7 million in revenues. Excluding the two jackup rigs transferred into the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services, average dayrates and 21 utilization for core assets in this segment decreased from $31,300 and 71 percent, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to $20,700 and 27 percent, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2002.

The increase in International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services operating expenses resulted primarily from two newbuilds placed into service and two jackup rigs transferred into this segment from the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment subsequent to the second quarter of 2001 and the accelerated amortization of the Drill Star's deferred gain, which produced incremental gains in the quarter ended June 30, 2001 of $13.7 million ($.04 per diluted share), with no equivalent expense reduction in the second quarter of 2002. These increases were partly offset by a decrease in expenses from three rigs transferred to assets held for sale subsequent to the second quarter in 2001, a decrease in expenses from nine rigs sold subsequent to the second quarter in 2001, a decrease in expenses from three leased rigs returned to their owners and a decrease in expenses related to the Deepwater Frontier (See " - Related Party Transactions) following the expiration of our lease with a related party late in 2001. The decrease in Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water operating expenses was primarily a result of lower costs in 2002 resulting from stacking idle rigs, reducing employee count and postponing maintenance projects, coupled with the transfer of two jackup rigs out of this segment into the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment subsequent to the second quarter of 2001.

The increase in International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services depreciation expense resulted primarily from four newbuild drilling units placed into service during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2001 and the transfer of two jackup rigs into this segment from the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment subsequent to the second quarter of 2001. This increase was partially offset by lower expense resulting from the suspension of depreciation on certain rigs transferred to assets held for sale and the sale of various rigs from our active fleet subsequent to the second quarter of 2001. The decrease in Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water depreciation expense resulted primarily from the movement of two jackup rigs out of this segment into the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment subsequent to the second quarter of 2001, the suspension of depreciation on certain rigs transferred to assets held for sale and the sale of various rigs from our active fleet subsequent to the second quarter of 2001. 22

During the three months ended June 30, 2002, the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment recognized a pre-tax loss of $2.4 million from the sale of the RBF 209 partially offset by a net pre-tax gain of $0.7 million related to the sale of certain non-strategic assets. During the three months ended June 30, 2001, net pre-tax losses of $0.8 million related to the sale of certain non-strategic assets. During the three months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001, the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment recognized net pre-tax gains of $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, related to the sale of certain non-strategic assets. 23

The decrease in equity in earnings of joint ventures was primarily related to our 60 percent share of earnings from Deepwater Drilling II L.L.C. ("DDII LLC"), which owns the Deepwater Frontier. The rig experienced decreased utilization in the second quarter of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The increase in interest income was primarily due to interest earned on higher average cash balances for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The decrease in interest expense was attributable to reductions in interest expense of $8.0 million associated with debt refinancing and retirements during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2001, a decrease in the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") of approximately 260 basis points that resulted in a $2.8 million reduction in interest expense on floating rate debt and a decrease of $0.7 million resulting from amortization of debt-related items. Additionally, we entered into interest rate swaps subsequent to the second quarter of 2001 that reduced interest expense by $13.5 million. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $0.6 million in interest expense attributable to a full quarter of interest expense on debt incurred during the second quarter of 2001 and the absence of capitalized interest in the second quarter of 2002 compared to $9.4 million of capitalized interest for the same period in 2001 due to the completion of our newbuild projects in 2001.

The increase in International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services operating revenues resulted from a $94 million increase in revenues from R&B Falcon core assets in this segment representing a full six months of revenues in 2002 compared to five months of operations in 2001 and $77 million in revenues from four newbuild drilling units placed into service during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2001. In addition, operating revenues relating to historical Transocean core assets totaled $739 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, representing a $90 million, or 14 percent, increase over the comparable 2001 period. Average dayrates and utilization for core assets included in this segment increased from $81,200 and 81 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $89,300 and 83 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These increases were partly offset by a $19 million decrease in revenues related to the Deepwater Frontier (See " - Related Party Transactions") following the expiration of our lease with a related party late in 2001, a $20 million decrease from three leased rigs returned to their owners, a $10 million decrease related to a rig transferred to held for sale and a $6 million decrease in revenues related to rigs sold during 2002. Revenues from non-core assets decreased $55 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001 primarily due to the sale of the RBF FPSO L.P., which owned the Seillean, and a decrease in turnkey drilling revenues of $38 million due to the winding up of our turnkey drilling business early in 2001. Although the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water operating revenues represent a full six months of operations in 2002 compared to five months of operations in 2001, revenues decreased mainly due to the further weakening of the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water market segment, a decline that began in mid-2001. In addition, the transfer of two jackup rigs from this segment into the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment resulted in a $12 million decrease in operating revenues. Excluding the two jackup rigs transferred into the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services, average dayrates and utilization for core assets in this segment decreased from $29,800 and 71 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $20,500 and 29 percent, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2002. 25

The increase in International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services operating expenses was primarily a result of five months of R&B Falcon operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to a full six months of activity for the same period in 2002, the activation of four newbuild drilling units and two jackup rigs transferred into this segment from the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2001 and accelerated amortization of the Drill Star's deferred gain, which produced incremental gains in the six months ended June 30, 2001 of $22.7 million ($.07 per diluted share) with no equivalent expense reduction in the second quarter of 2002. These increases were partly offset by a decrease in expenses resulting from a rig transferred to assets held for sale subsequent to the second quarter in 2001, a decrease in expenses relating to nine rigs sold subsequent to the second quarter in 2001, a decrease in expenses related to three leased rigs returned to their owners, a decrease in expenses related to the Deepwater Frontier (See " - Related Party Transactions") following the expiration of our lease with a related party late in 2001 and the winding up of our turnkey drilling business in 2001.

The increase in International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services depreciation expense resulted primarily from a full six months of depreciation in 2002 on rigs acquired in the R&B Falcon merger compared to five months for the same period in 2001, depreciation expense for four newbuild drilling units placed into service during and subsequent to the first six months of 2001 and the transfer of two jackup rigs into this segment from the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment. This increase was partially offset by lower expense due to the suspension of depreciation on certain rigs transferred to assets held for sale and the sale of various rigs, classified as assets held and used subsequent to the second quarter of 2001. The decrease in Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water depreciation expense resulted primarily from the transfer of two jackup rigs out of this segment into the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment and the suspension of depreciation on certain rigs transferred to assets held for sale and the sale of various rigs classified as assets held and used subsequent to the second quarter of 2001.

The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to $3.9 million of costs related to the exchange of our debt for R&B Falcon debt in March 2002. The six months ended June 30, 2001 included a $1.3 million reduction in expense related to the favorable settlement of an unemployment tax assessment. In addition, expense increased due to the R&B Falcon merger and reflects additional costs to manage a larger, more complex organization for a full six months in 2002 compared to five months in 2001.

During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment recognized net pre-tax gains of $3.4 million related to the sale of the Transocean 96, Transocean 97, a mobile offshore production unit and the sale of certain non-strategic assets. These net gains were partially offset by a net pre-tax loss of $2.4 million from the sale of the RBF 209. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, we recognized net pre-tax gains of $18.5 million related to the accelerated amortization of the deferred gain on the sale of the Sedco Explorer and $0.6 million from the sale of certain non-strategic assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment recognized net pre-tax losses of $1.4 million related to the sale of two mobile offshore production units and a land rig, partially offset by net pre-tax gains of $1.0 million on the sale of certain non-strategic assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, we recognized net pre-tax gains of $0.5 million from the sale of certain non-strategic assets.

The decrease in equity in earnings of joint ventures was primarily related to our 60 percent share of the earnings of DDII LLC, which owns the Deepwater Frontier. The rig experienced shipyard downtime and decreased utilization during the first six months of 2002. This decrease was partially offset by losses recorded in February 2001 on the sale of the Drill Star and Sedco Explorer by a joint venture in which we own a 25% interest. The increase in interest income was primarily due to interest earned on higher average cash balances for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The increase in interest expense was attributable to the absence of capitalized interest in the first six months of 2002 due to the completion of our newbuild projects in 2001 compared to $30.5 million of capitalized interest for the same period in 2001. Also contributing to the increase were $25.2 million of additional interest expense on debt issued during the second quarter of 2001 and $8.7 million of interest expense on debt acquired in the R&B Falcon merger, which represents additional interest in the full six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to five months for the comparable period in 2001. Offsetting these increases were reductions in interest expense of $26.3 million associated with debt refinancing and retirements during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2001, a decrease in LIBOR of approximately 335 basis points that resulted in a $7.0 million reduction in interest expense on floating rate debt and interest rate swaps entered into during and subsequent to June 2001 that further reduced interest expense $25.0 million. 28

During the six months ended June 30, 2002, we recognized a $1,363.7 million cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle related to the implementation of SFAS 142 as more fully described in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. FINANCIAL CONDITION
June 30, December 31, % 2002 2001 Change Change --------- ------------- ---------- ------- TOTAL ASSETS International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services $13,960.1 $ 14,219.3 $ (259.2) (1.8)% Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water 1,344.0 2,800.5 (1,456.5) (52.0)% --------- ------------- ---------- ------- $15,304.1 $ 17,019.8 $(1,715.7) (10.1)% ========= ============= ========== =======
The decrease in International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services assets was primarily due to a decrease in temporary investments resulting from the repayment of commercial paper borrowings of $326 million. The decrease in Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water assets was primarily due to the impairment of goodwill of $1.4 billion as a result of our adoption of SFAS 142 in January 2002. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES In conjunction with the R&B Falcon merger, we established a liability of $16.5 million for the estimated severance-related costs associated with the involuntary termination of 569 R&B Falcon employees pursuant to management's plan to consolidate operations and administrative functions post-merger. Included in the 569 planned involuntary terminations were 387 employees engaged 29 in our land drilling business in Venezuela. We have suspended active marketing efforts to divest this business and, as a result, the estimated liability was reduced by $4.3 million in the third quarter of 2001 with an offset to goodwill. Through June 30, 2002 all required severance-related costs have been paid to 182 employees whose positions were eliminated as a result of this plan. 2001 R&B FALCON PRO FORMA OPERATING RESULTS Our unaudited pro forma consolidated results for the six months ended June 30, 2001, giving effect to the R&B Falcon merger, reflected net income of $102.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, on pro forma operating revenues of $1,428.1 million. The pro forma operating results assume the merger was completed as of January 1, 2001 (see Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements). These pro forma results do not reflect the effects of reduced depreciation expense related to conforming the estimated lives of our drilling rigs. The pro forma financial data should not be relied on as an indication of operating results that we would have achieved had the merger taken place earlier or of the future results that we may achieve. OUTLOOK Average dayrates increased moderately within our International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services business segment, due largely to improved utilization of our high-specification floaters, while our fleet utilization within the segment declined during the second quarter of 2002 compared to the first quarter of this year. The segment's operating results trended slightly downward in the second quarter of 2002 due principally to a decline in demand for semisubmersibles and drillships with water depth drilling capabilities of 300 feet up to 3,500 feet. Within our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business segment, average dayrates increased slightly while fleet utilization decreased in the second quarter of 2002 compared to the immediately preceding quarter. 30 Comparative average dayrates and utilization figures for the quarters ending June 30, 2002 and 2001 and the quarter ending March 31, 2002 are set forth in the table below.

--------------- (a) Average dayrates and utilization figures do not include non-core assets, which consist of our platform rigs, mobile offshore production units and Venezuelan land rigs, as well as for prior periods our service vessels, which were sold prior to June 30, 2002. Demand for our drilling rigs is driven largely by our clients' perception of future commodity prices. World oil prices have been stable so far this year and U.S. natural gas prices have rebounded compared to the latter part of 2001, although there has been some recent weakness. We believe that drilling rig supply and demand are still close to balanced in market sectors around the world, other than the existing general oversupply of rigs in the Norway and U.K. sectors of the North Sea and the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Generally, we do not expect significant changes in the overall global drilling rig supply and demand during the remainder of the year. 31 We do not foresee a significant increase in overall demand within our International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment in the near term. We expect continued general weakness in Norway and the U.K. through the rest of the year for all classes of rigs. Similarly, we still do not foresee any significant improvement in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico high-specification sector until mobilizations to other regions occur or further meaningful development programs come online. We expect to see some additional U.S. deepwater development programs during 2003, although market and other factors could affect timing and the extent of development. We are still monitoring potential opportunities in India, although the timing of the projects is still uncertain. We believe the international jackup market sector should be stable to slightly improved during the rest of this year, buoyed by strong market segments in India and Asia. We expect the conventional semisubmersible market sector to remain weak for the foreseeable future. We continue to see some encouraging signs for gas drilling opportunities in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico although recent declines in U.S. natural gas prices have added additional uncertainty to the outlook. While we experienced lower utilization rates within our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business segment for the full second quarter of 2002 compared to the first quarter of this year, we experienced an upward trend in activity during the month of June and believe this trend is currently continuing, although further deterioration in natural gas prices could have a negative effect. The contract drilling market historically has been highly competitive and cyclical, and we are unable to predict the extent to which current market conditions will continue. A decline in oil or natural gas prices could reduce demand for our contract drilling services and adversely affect both utilization and dayrates. We conduct our worldwide operations through various subsidiaries and branch offices. Consequently, we are subject to changes in tax laws and the interpretations of those tax laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate. This includes tax laws directed toward companies organized in jurisdictions with low tax rates. A material change in the tax laws of any country in which we have operations, including the United States ("U.S."), could result in a higher effective tax rate on our worldwide earnings. As a result of our reorganization in May of 1999, we became a Cayman Islands company in a transaction commonly referred to as an "inversion". Currently the U.S. House and Senate are considering legislation that would change the tax law applicable to companies that have completed inversion transactions. Certain aspects of the leading proposals, S. 2119 Reversing the Expatriation of Profits Offshore Act passed by the Senate Finance Committee in July and the American Competitiveness and Corporate Accountability Act currently under consideration in the House Ways and Means Committee, may make it more difficult to integrate acquired U.S. businesses with existing operations or to undertake internal restructuring within the group. We can not provide any assurance as to what form final legislation will take or the impact that such legislation will ultimately have. Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, insurance underwriters increased insurance premiums charged for many of the coverages historically maintained and issued general notices of cancellations to their customers for war risk, terrorism and political risk insurance with respect to a wide variety of insurance coverages, including but not limited to, liability and aviation coverages. Our insurance underwriters renegotiated substantially higher premium rates for war risk coverage, which can be canceled by the underwriters on short notice. Our Directors and Officers liability coverage was renewed in the second quarter of 2002 with a substantial increase in premium. Our current property insurance program runs through the end of 2002 and the various insurance programs providing our occupational injury and illness coverages run through November 2002. We expect a significant increase in premiums during 2003, but we are investigating alternatives that could mitigate the cost increase. On July 4, 2002, a strike was called by the Norwegian Oil and Petrochemical Workers Union (NOPEF) directed at most offshore oilfield service contractors. Although drilling contractor employees did not strike, their operations were affected. The goal of NOPEF was to bring the wages and work conditions of the oilfield services workers up to the same level as other Norwegian offshore employees. The strike was concluded on August 11, 2002. While two of our rigs, the Polar Pioneer and Transocean Prospect, were affected by the strike, we do not currently have an estimate of the impact on our results of operations. 32 In July 2002, we announced plans to pursue a divestiture of our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business. Under this plan, our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business would be separated from Transocean and established as a publicly traded company. We currently anticipate that we will establish R&B Falcon as the entity that owns this business. We plan to transfer assets not used in this business from R&B Falcon, which will be renamed in connection with the transaction, to our other subsidiaries, and these internal transfers will not affect the consolidated financial statements of Transocean. The initial public offering is currently being prepared. We anticipate completing the initial public offering when market conditions warrant, subject to various factors. Given the current general uncertainty in the equity markets, we are unsure when the transaction could be completed on terms acceptable to us. We expect to sell a portion of our interest in R&B Falcon in the initial public offering. The consolidated financial statements of R&B Falcon as a separate reporting entity will be included in the initial public offering prospectus and will include various items specific to R&B Falcon that are eliminated in Transocean's consolidated financial statements. The R&B Falcon financial statements will reflect its separate adoption of SFAS 142, including the implementation of the initial test for goodwill impairment utilizing the fair value of each reporting unit as of January 1, 2002 calculated in a manner consistent with the methodology used for Transocean's initial impairment test. With respect to the Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business segment, R&B Falcon will have an impairment of goodwill consistent with that reflected in Transocean's consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of 2002, since the entire segment is housed within R&B Falcon. Transocean's International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment (the "Floater segment") operates through a number of its subsidiaries, including R&B Falcon, which results in R&B Falcon having its own separate Floater segment. Due to significant differences in the composition of R&B Falcon's Floater segment compared to Transocean's Floater segment and other factors specific to R&B Falcon, we expect a substantial goodwill impairment for R&B Falcon's Floater segment even though the same test did not result in an impairment of goodwill in Transocean's Floater segment. A preliminary calculation indicates the impairment of R&B Falcon's Floater segment will be approximately $3 billion. This impairment will have no effect on Transocean's consolidated financial statements. The impairment relating to both segments in R&B Falcon will be recorded in its financial statements as a cumulative effect adjustment. In July 2002, we received a $4.2 million settlement of a loss of hire insurance claim for an incident that occurred in 1998 in which the Sedco 710 was damaged from a collision with a supply boat. The settlement will be recorded in operating revenues in the third quarter of 2002. We continue with our previously announced plans to sell a number of assets (see "-Liquidity and Capital Resources-Acquisitions and Dispositions"). We received proceeds of $202 million in 2001 and $61 million during the first six months of 2002 from the sale of such assets. As of July 30, 2002, approximately 70 percent and 34 percent of our International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment fleet days were committed for the remainder of 2002 and for the year 2003, respectively. For our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water segment, which has traditionally operated under short-term contracts, committed fleet days were approximately 11 percent for the remainder of 2002 and none are currently committed for the year 2003. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES SOURCES AND USES OF CASH
Six Months Ended June 30, -------------------- 2002 2001 Change ---------- -------- ---------- (In millions) NET CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES Net income (loss) $(1,206.4) $ 99.0 $(1,305.4) Depreciation and amortization 249.9 294.7 (44.8) Non-cash items 1,338.0 (100.8) 1,438.8 Working capital (1.0) (241.7) 240.7 ---------- -------- ---------- $ 380.5 $ 51.2 $ 329.3 ========== ======== ==========
Cash generated from net income items adjusted for non-cash activity increased $88.6 million. Cash used for working capital items decreased $240.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001 primarily due to a reduction in accounts receivable resulting from increased collections.
Six Months Ended June 30, ---------------------- 2002 2001 Change --------- ----------- -------- (In millions) NET CASH USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES Capital expenditures $ (81.2) $ (371.8) $ 290.6 Proceeds from disposal of assets 65.0 29.2 35.8 Merger costs paid - (24.5) 24.5 Proceeds from sale of securities - 16.8 (16.8) R&B Falcon cash at acquisition - 264.7 (264.7) Other, net - 2.7 (2.7) --------- ----------- -------- $ (16.2) $ (82.9) $ 66.7 ========= =========== ========
Net cash used in investing activities decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in the previous year as a result of lower capital expenditures due to the completion of our newbuild program in 2001 and higher proceeds from asset sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002, partially offset by cash received in connection with the R&B Falcon merger during the six months ended June 30, 2001. 33
Six Months Ended June 30, ---------------------- 2002 2001 Change --------- ----------- ---------- (In millions) NET CASH PROVIDED BY (USED IN) FINANCING ACTIVITIES Net borrowings (repayments) on revolving credit agreements $ - $ (180.1) $ 180.1 Net borrowings (repayments) under commercial paper program (326.4) 60.3 (386.7) Repayments on other debt instruments (119.6) (1,478.2) 1,358.6 Net proceeds from issuance of debt - 1,693.5 (1,693.5) Other, net (15.8) 10.4 (26.2) --------- ----------- ---------- $ (461.8) $ 105.9 $ (567.7) ========= =========== ==========
During the six months ended June 30, 2002, we had no borrowings under our revolving credit agreements and we repaid $326.4 million under our commercial paper program. The decrease in repayments of debt instruments of $1,358.6 million was primarily due to repayments of R&B Falcon debt instruments totaling $1,457.9 million in the second quarter of 2001 as more fully described in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. In the six months ended June 30, 2002, we made early repayments of secured rig financing on the Trident IX and Trident 16 of $50.6 million and scheduled debt payments amounting to $68.9 million. The increase in cash used in other, net mainly reflects $8.3 million in consent payments related to the exchange of our notes for R&B Falcon notes and no exercise of warrants in 2002. In the second quarter of 2001, we received net proceeds of $1,693.5 million primarily due to the issuance of the 6.625% Notes, 7.5% Notes and 1.5% Convertible Debentures. CAPITAL EXPENDITURES Capital expenditures totaled $81.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002. During 2002, we expect to spend between $160 million and $200 million on our existing fleet, corporate infrastructure and major upgrades to the Deepwater Expedition. A substantial majority of our capital expenditures relates to the International and U.S. Floater Contract Drilling Services segment. We intend to fund the cash requirements relating to our capital expenditures through available cash balances, cash generated from operations and asset sales. We also have available borrowings under our revolving credit agreements and commercial paper program (see "-Sources of Liquidity") and may engage in other commercial bank or capital market financings. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS From time to time, we review possible acquisitions of businesses and drilling units and may in the future make significant capital commitments for such purposes. Any such acquisition could involve the payment by us of a substantial amount of cash or the issuance of a substantial number of additional ordinary shares or other securities. We would likely fund the cash portion of any such acquisition through cash balances on hand, the incurrence of additional debt, sales of assets, ordinary shares or other securities or a combination thereof. In addition, from time to time, we review possible dispositions. See "Outlook." In June 2002, we sold a jackup rig, the RBF 209, and recognized a net after-tax loss of $1.5 million. In March 2002, we sold two semisubmersible rigs, the Transocean 96 and Transocean 97, for net proceeds of $30.7 million, resulting in net after-tax gains of $1.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, we sold certain other non-strategic assets acquired in the R&B Falcon merger and certain other assets held for sale for net proceeds of approximately $14.7 million, resulting in net after-tax gains of $0.7 million. 34 SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY Our primary sources of liquidity in the second quarter of 2002 were our cash flows from operations and asset sales. Primary uses of cash were capital expenditures and debt repayments. At June 30, 2002, we had $756 million in cash and cash equivalents. We anticipate that we will rely primarily upon existing cash balances and internally generated cash flows to maintain liquidity in 2002, as cash flows from operations are expected to be positive and adequate to fulfill anticipated obligations. From time to time, we may also use bank lines of credit and commercial paper to maintain liquidity for short-term cash needs. We intend to use cash from operations primarily to pay debt as it comes due and to fund capital expenditures. If we seek to reduce our debt through other than scheduled maturities, we could do so through repurchases or redemptions of, or tender offers for, debt securities. We expect to significantly reduce capital expenditures compared to prior years due to the completion of our newbuild program in 2001. During the first six months of 2002, we have reduced net debt, defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, by $300 million. Our internally generated cash flow is directly related to our business and the market segments in which we operate. Should the drilling market deteriorate further, or should we experience poor results in our operations, cash flow from operations may be reduced. However, we have continued to generate positive cash flow from operations. We have access to $800 million in bank lines of credit under two revolving credit agreements. One revolving credit agreement provides for $250 million in borrowings and will expire in December 2002 and the other revolving credit agreement provides for $550 million in borrowings and will expire in December 2005. These credit lines are used primarily to back our $800 million commercial paper program and may also be drawn on directly. As of June 30, 2002, none of the credit line capacity was utilized, leaving $800 million of availability under the bank lines of credit for commercial paper issuance or drawdowns. The bank credit lines require compliance with various covenants and provisions customary for agreements of this nature, including an interest coverage ratio of not less than 3 to 1, a leverage ratio of not greater than 40 percent and limitations on mergers and sale of substantially all assets, creating liens, incurring debt, transactions with affiliates and sale/leaseback transactions. Should we fail to comply with these covenants, we would be in default and may lose access to these facilities. A loss of the bank facilities would also cause us to lose access to the commercial paper markets. We are also subject to various covenants under the indentures pursuant to which our public debt was issued, including restrictions on creating liens, engaging in sale/leaseback transactions and engaging in merger, consolidation or reorganization transactions. A default under our public debt could trigger a default under our credit lines and cause us to lose access to these facilities. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 for a description of our credit agreements and debt securities. We intend to use the proceeds from the initial public offering of our Gulf of Mexico Shallow and Inland Water business as well as any proceeds from our previously announced plans to sell a number of assets (See "-Outlook") to further reduce our debt balances. In April 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") declared effective our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 for the proposed offering from time to time of up to $2.0 billion in gross proceeds of senior or subordinated debt securities, preference shares, ordinary shares and warrants to purchase debt securities, preference shares, ordinary shares or other securities. In May 2001, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.5% Convertible Debentures due May 15, 2021 under the shelf registration statement. At July 31, 2002, $1.6 billion in gross proceeds of securities remained unissued under the shelf registration statement. Our access to commercial paper, debt and equity markets may be reduced or closed to us due to a variety of events, including, among others, downgrades of ratings of our debt and commercial paper, industry conditions, general economic conditions, market conditions and market perceptions of us and our industry. 35 Our contractual obligations in the table below include our debt obligations at face value.

We are required to repurchase the Zero Coupon Convertible Debentures due 2020, the 1.5% Convertible Debentures due 2021 and the 7.45% Notes due 2027 at the option of the holder in May 2003, May 2006 and April 2007, respectively. With regard to both series of the Convertible Debentures, we have the option to pay the repurchase price in cash, ordinary shares or any combination of cash and ordinary shares. The chart above assumes that the holders of these debentures and notes exercise the options at the first available date. We are also required to repurchase the convertible debentures at the option of the holder at other later dates as more fully described in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. We have certain operating leases that have been previously discussed and reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. There have been no material changes in these previously reported leases. At June 30, 2002, we had other commitments that we are contractually obligated to fulfill with cash should the obligations be called. These obligations included standby letters of credit and surety bonds, which guarantee our performance as it relates to our drilling contracts, insurance, tax and other obligations in various jurisdictions. Letters of credit are issued under a number of facilities provided by several banks. The obligations that are the subject of these surety bonds are geographically concentrated in Brazil and Nigeria. These letters of credit and surety bond obligations are not normally called as we typically comply with the underlying performance requirements. The table below includes a summary of these obligations in U.S. dollar equivalents and their time to expiration. It should be noted that these obligations could be called at any time prior to the expiration dates.

--------------------------- (a) See "-Special Purpose Entities". In March 2002, we completed an exchange offer pursuant to which the 6.5% Notes due April 15, 2003, 6.75% Notes due April 15, 2005, 6.95% Notes due April 15, 2008, 7.375% Notes due April 15, 2018, 9.125% Notes due December 15, 2003 and 9.5% Notes due December 15, 2008 of R&B Falcon whose holders accepted the offer were exchanged for newly issued Transocean notes. The new notes were issued in six series corresponding to the six series of R&B Falcon notes and have the same principal amount, interest rate, redemption terms and payment and maturity dates as the corresponding series of R&B Falcon notes. The aggregate principal amount of the new notes issued was approximately $1.4 billion. Because the holders of a majority in principal amount of each of these series of notes consented to the proposed amendments to the applicable indenture pursuant to which the notes were issued, some covenants, restrictions and events of default were eliminated from the indentures with respect to these series of notes. The notes not exchanged remain an obligation of R&B Falcon. In connection with the exchange offers, an aggregate of $8.3 million in consent payments was made by R&B Falcon to holders of R&B Falcon notes whose notes were tendered (and not validly withdrawn) within the required time periods and accepted for exchange. 36 DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS We have established policies and procedures for derivative instruments that have been approved by our Board of Directors. These policies and procedures provide for the prior approval of derivative instruments by our Chief Financial Officer. From time to time, we may enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments in connection with the management of our exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes; however, for accounting purposes, certain transactions may not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. As more fully described in Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, we are a party to interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $1.6 billion. At June 30, 2002, the value of our outstanding derivatives was a net asset of $63.0 million. Deepwater Drilling L.L.C., an unconsolidated subsidiary in which we have a 50 percent ownership interest, has entered into interest rate swaps with aggregate market values netting to a liability of $7.9 million at June 30, 2002. Our interest in these swaps was included in accumulated other comprehensive income with a corresponding reduction to investments in and advances to joint ventures. SPECIAL PURPOSE ENTITIES, SALE/LEASEBACK TRANSACTION AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS We have transactions with certain special purpose entities and related parties and we are party to a sale/leaseback transaction. These transactions have all been previously discussed and reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. There have been no material developments in these previously reported transactions. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are reviewed at least annually for impairment. The amortization provisions of SFAS 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, we adopted SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002. In conjunction with the adoption of this statement, we discontinued the amortization of goodwill. Application of the non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 for goodwill is expected to result in an increase in operating income of approximately $155 million in 2002. See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 supersedes SFAS 121, Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") 30, Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. SFAS 144 retains the fundamental provisions of SFAS 121 for recognition and measurement of long-lived asset impairment and for the measurement of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and the basic requirements of APB 30. In addition to these fundamental provisions, SFAS 144 provides guidance for determining whether long-lived assets should be tested for impairment and specific criteria for classifying assets to be disposed of as held for sale. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. We adopted the statement as of January 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement had no material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. This statement eliminates the requirement under SFAS Statement 4 to aggregate and classify all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt as an extraordinary item, net of related income tax effect. This statement also amends 37 SFAS 13 to require certain lease modifications with economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions be accounted for in the same manner as sale-leaseback transactions. In addition, SFAS 145 requires reclassification of gains and losses in all prior periods presented in comparative financial statements related to debt extinguishment that do not meet the criteria for extraordinary item in APB 30. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 with early adoption encouraged. We will adopt SFAS 145 effective January 1, 2003. We do not expect adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 146, Obligations Associated with Disposal Activities, which is effective for disposal activities initiated after December 15, 2002, with early application encouraged. SFAS 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." Under this statement, a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity would be recognized and measured at its fair value when it is incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit plan. Under SFAS 146, severance pay would be recognized over time rather than up front provided the benefit arrangement requires employees to render future service beyond a "minimum retention period", which would be based on the legal notification period, or if there is no such requirement, 60 days, thereby allowing a liability to be recorded over the employees' future service period. We will adopt SFAS 146 effective with disposal activities initiated after December 15, 2002. We do not expect adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK INTEREST RATE RISK Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our long-term and short-term debt obligations. The table below presents scheduled debt maturities and related weighted-average interest rates for each of the twelve month periods ending June 30, relating to debt obligations as of June 30, 2002. Weighted-average variable rates are based on estimated LIBOR rates as of June 30, 2002, plus applicable margins. As of June 30, 2002 (in millions, except interest rate percentages):
Scheduled Maturity Date (a) (b) Fair Value ------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------- 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Thereafter Total 6/30/02 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ---------------------- --------- Total debt Fixed Rate $823.2 $130.2 $ 92.3 $400.0 $100.0 $ 1,050.0 $2,595.7 $2,444.7 Average interest rate 4.1% 8.5% 8.4% 1.5% 7.5% 7.6% 5.6% Variable Rate $125.0 $150.0 $ 75.0 - - - $ 350.0 $ 350.0 Average interest rate 2.6% 2.6% 2.6% - - - 2.6% Receive Fixed/Pay Variable Swaps (c) - - $350.0 - - $ 1,250.0 $1,600.0 $1,726.9 Average interest rate - - 4.7% - - 3.6% 3.8%
-------------------------------- (a) Maturity dates of the face value of the Company's debt assume the put options on the Zero Coupon Convertible Debentures, 1.5% Convertible Debentures and 7.45% Notes will be exercised in May 2003, May 2006 and April 2007, respectively. (b) Expected maturity amounts are based on the face value of debt and do not reflect fair market value of debt. (c) The 6.625%, 6.75%, 6.95% and 9.5% Notes are considered variable as a result of the interest rate swaps. See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2002, we had approximately $2.0 billion of variable rate debt at face value (43 percent of total debt at face value). Of that variable rate debt, $1.6 billion resulted from interest rate swaps with the remainder representing term bank debt. Given outstanding amounts as of that date, a one percent rise in interest rates would result in an additional $16 million in interest expense per year. Offsetting this, a large part of our investments would earn commensurate higher rates of return. Using June 30, 2002 investment levels, a one percent increase in interest rates would result in approximately $7 million of additional interest income per year. Based on June 30, 2002 balances, our net variable debt balance at face value, defined as variable rate debt less cash and cash equivalents, totaled $1.2 billion (32 percent of net total debt at face value). FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK The Company's exposure to foreign exchange risk has not materially changed since December 31, 2001. 39 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We were a defendant in Bryant, et al. v. R&B Falcon Drilling USA, Inc., et al. in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. R&B Falcon Drilling USA is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of R&B Falcon. In this suit, the plaintiffs alleged that R&B Falcon Drilling USA, us and a number of other offshore drilling contractors with operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico engaged in a conspiracy to depress wages and benefits paid to certain of their offshore employees. The plaintiffs contended that this alleged conduct violated federal antitrust law and constituted unfair trade practices and wrongful employment acts under state law. The plaintiffs sought treble damages, attorneys' fees and costs on behalf of themselves and an alleged class of offshore workers, along with an injunction against exchanging certain wage and benefit information with other offshore drilling contractors named as defendants. In May 2001, we reached an agreement in principle with the plaintiffs' counsel to settle all claims, pending Court approval of the settlement. In July 2001, before the Court had considered the proposed settlement, the case, along with a number of unrelated cases also pending in the federal court in Galveston, was transferred to a federal judge sitting in Houston as a docket equalization measure. The judge approved the settlement, and the funds were deposited with the court in June 2002. The terms of the settlement have been reflected in our results of operations for the first quarter of 2001. The settlement did not have a material adverse effect on our business or consolidated financial position. In December 1998, Mobil North Sea Limited ("Mobil") purportedly terminated its contract for use of the Jack Bates based on failure of two mooring lines while anchor recovery operations at a Mobil well location had been suspended during heavy weather. We did not believe that Mobil had the right to terminate this contract. We later recontracted the Jack Bates to Mobil at a lower dayrate. We filed a request for arbitration with the London Court of International Arbitration seeking damages for the termination, and Mobil in turn counterclaimed against us seeking damages for our alleged breaches of the original contract. The case was settled in July 2002 and the proceedings dismissed. The ultimate outcome of this case did not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or consolidated financial position. In March 1997, an action was filed by Mobil Exploration and Producing U.S. Inc. and affiliates, St. Mary Land & Exploration Company and affiliates and Samuel Geary and Associates, Inc. against Cliffs Drilling, its underwriters and insurance broker in the 16th Judicial District Court of St. Mary Parish, Louisiana. The plaintiffs alleged damages amounting to in excess of $50 million in connection with the drilling of a turnkey well in 1995 and 1996. The case was tried before a jury in January and February 2000, and the jury returned a verdict of approximately $30 million in favor of the plaintiffs for excess drilling costs, loss of insurance proceeds, loss of hydrocarbons and interest. We have appealed such judgment. We believe that all but potentially the portion of the verdict representing excess drilling costs of approximately $4.7 million is covered by relevant primary and excess liability insurance policies of Cliffs Drilling; however, the insurers and underwriters have denied coverage. Cliffs Drilling has instituted litigation against those insurers and underwriters to enforce its rights under the relevant policies. We do not expect that the ultimate outcome of this case will have a material adverse effect on our business or consolidated financial position. We have certain other actions or claims pending that have been previously discussed and reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2002, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 and our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There have been no material developments in these previously reported matters. We are involved in a number of other lawsuits, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of our business. We do not believe that ultimate liability, if any, resulting from any such other pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on our business or consolidated financial position. ITEM 4.
