INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented herein have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements at the dates and for the periods indicated as required by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S‑X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the respective full years. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2020.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tidewater Inc. and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. We use the equity method to account for equity investments over which we exercise significant influence but do not exercise control and are not the primary beneficiary. Unless otherwise specified, all per share information included in this document is on a diluted earnings per share basis.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED

 

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifying and amending existing guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes.  The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020 with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the effect the standard may have in our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018 the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General, which modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit plans or other postretirement plans. This ASU removes certain disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of certain other disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant.  The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020 with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the effect the standard may have on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

 

(3)

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

On August 28, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: - Changes to The Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”), which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements as part of its disclosure framework project. Entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but public companies will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2020 and it did not have any impact on our financial position, net earnings or cash flow.  However, we have incorporated the modified disclosure requirements of ASU 2018-13 into note 15 of our financial statements.

 

On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments–Credit Losses, which introduced a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. This model applies to: (i) loans, accounts receivable, trade receivables, and other financial assets measured at amortized cost, (ii) loan commitments and certain other off-balance sheet credit exposures, (iii) debt securities and other financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and (iv) beneficial interests in securitized financial assets.

 

Expected credit losses are recognized on the initial recognition of our trade accounts receivable and contract assets.  In each subsequent reporting period, even if a loss has not yet been incurred, credit losses are recognized based on the history of credit losses and current conditions, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts affecting collectability.  We developed an expected credit loss model applicable to our trade accounts receivable and contract assets that considers our historical performance and the economic environment, as well as the credit risk and its expected development for each group of customers that share similar risk characteristics.  We segmented our trade accounts receivable and contract assets by type of client, except for individual account balances that have deteriorated in credit quality, which are evaluated individually.  We then determined, for each of these client asset groups, the average expected credit loss utilizing our actual credit loss experience over the last five years, which was adjusted as discussed above, and was applied to the balance attributable to each segment in our trade accounts receivable and contract asset balances.  This standard was adopted through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the accumulated deficit as of January 1,

7


 

2020, which is the beginning of the first period in which this guidance is effective.  Periods prior to the adoption date that are presented for comparative purposes are not adjusted.  Adopting this standard on January 1, 2020 increased the allowance for expected credit losses by approximately $0.2 million.

Included in these “out-of-the-money” warrants are Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants and GLF Equity Warrants which have exercise prices of $57.06, $62.28, and $100.00, respectively.

 

Tax Benefits Preservation Plan

On April 13, 2020, we adopted a Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “Plan”) as a measure to protect our existing net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits (“Tax Attributes”) and to reduce our potential future tax liabilities.  Use of our Tax Attributes will be substantially limited if we experience an “ownership change” as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 382”).

While the Plan is in effect, any person or group that acquires beneficial ownership of 4.99% or more of our common stock then outstanding without approval from our Board of Directors (the Board) or without meeting certain customary exceptions would be subject to significant dilution in their ownership interest in our company. Stockholders who currently own 4.99% or more of our outstanding common stock will not trigger the Plan unless they acquire 0.5% or more additional shares of common stock.

Pursuant to the Plan, one right will be distributed to our stockholders for each share of our common stock owned of record at the close of business on April 24, 2020. Each right would initially represent the right to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of our Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, no par value (the “Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $38.00 per one one-thousandth of a share. The preferred stock will entitle the holder to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other rights of holders of preferred stock. The Board may redeem the rights in whole, but not in part, for $0.001 per right (subject to adjustment) at any time prior to the close of business on the tenth business day after the first date of public announcement that any person or group has triggered the Plan.

 

The rights will expire on the earliest of (i) the close of business on April 13, 2023, (ii) the time at which the rights are redeemed or exchanged, or (iii) the time at which the Board determines that the Tax Attributes are fully utilized, expired, no longer necessary or become limited under Section 382.

 

 

(6)

INCOME TAXES

 

We use a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate taxes for interim periods instead of applying the annual effective tax rate to an estimate of the full fiscal year due to the level of volatility and unpredictability of earnings in our industry, both overall and by jurisdiction.

 

Income tax expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020, reflects tax liabilities in various jurisdictions that are either based on revenue (deemed profit regimes) or pre-tax profits.

 

The tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions are primarily attributable to permanent establishment issues related to a foreign joint venture, subpart F income inclusions and withholding taxes on foreign services. Penalties and interest related to income tax liabilities are included in income tax expense. Income tax payable is included in other current liabilities.

 

As of December 31, 2019, our balance sheet reflected approximately $101.3 million of net deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance of $103.5 million. As of June 30, 2020, we had net deferred tax assets of approximately $105.7 million prior to a valuation allowance analysis.

 

Management assesses all available positive and negative evidence to estimate the company’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income of the appropriate character, and in the appropriate taxing jurisdictions, to permit use of existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence is a cumulative loss incurred over a three-year period

9


 

in a taxing jurisdiction. Prevailing accounting practice is that such objective evidence would limit the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as projections for future growth.

 

On the basis of this evaluation, a valuation allowance of $108.1 million has been recorded against net deferred tax assets which are more likely than not to be unrealized.  The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted if future estimates of U.S. taxable income change, or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and subjective evidence, such as financial projections for future growth and tax planning strategies, are given additional weight.

 

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the United States. The CARES Act includes several significant business tax provisions, that are available to the Company, that, among other things, would allow businesses to carry back net operating losses arising after 2017 to the five prior tax years.  Considering the available carryback, we have recorded a tax benefit of $6.9 million related to the realization of net operating loss deferred tax assets on which a valuation allowance was previously recorded.

 

With limited exceptions, we are no longer subject to tax audits by U.S. federal, state, local or foreign taxing authorities for years prior to 2014. We are subject to ongoing examinations by various foreign tax authorities and do not believe that the results of these examinations will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In the second quarter of 2020 Sonatide declared a $35.0 million dividend.  On June 22, 2020, Sonangol received $17.9 million and we received $17.1 million.  All of our share of the dividend is reflected as dividend income from unconsolidated company in the consolidated statement of operations because (i) our investment in the Sonatide joint venture had previously been written down to zero, (ii) the distributions are not refundable and (iii) we are not liable for the obligations of or committed to provide financial support to the Sonatide joint venture.  In addition, as a result of the aforementioned dividend payment, the cash balances of the joint venture were significantly reduced and we determined that, as a result, a significant portion of our net due from Sonatide balance was compromised.

 

After offsetting the amounts due to Sonatide, the net amount due from Sonatide at June 30, 2020 was approximately $17.0 million. Sonatide had approximately $6.9 million of cash on hand (approximately $1.2 million denominated in Angolan kwanzas) at June 30, 2020 plus approximately $18.6 million of net trade accounts receivable to satisfy the net due from Sonatide. Given prior discussions with our partner regarding how the net losses from the devaluation of certain Angolan kwanza denominated accounts should be shared, we continue to evaluate our net due from Sonatide balance for possible additional impairment in future periods based in part on available liquidity held by Sonatide. On June 30, 2020, we recorded a $41.5 million credit loss impairment expense.

Sonatide Operations

 

Sonatide’s principal earnings are from the commissions paid by us to the joint venture for company vessels chartered in Angola. In addition, Sonatide owns two vessels that may generate operating income and cash flow.

Amounts due from DTDW (Nigeria)

 

We own 40% of the DTDW joint venture in Nigeria.  Our partner, who owns 60%, is a Nigerian national.  DTDW owns one offshore service vessel and has long term debt of $5.6 million which is secured by the vessel and guarantees from the DTDW partners. We also operate company owned vessels in Nigeria for which our partner receives a commission.  As of

11


 

June 30, 2020, we had only one company owned vessel operating in Nigeria and the DTDW owned vessel was not employed.  At the beginning of 2020 we had expected that we would be operating numerous vessels in Nigeria, but in the second quarter of 2020 the Covid pandemic and resulting oil price reduction caused our primary customer in Nigeria to eliminate all planned operations for 2020.  As a result, the near term cash flow projections indicate that DTDW does not have sufficient funds to meet its obligations to us or to the holder of its long term debt.  In the June 2020 DTDW board meeting neither of the DTDW partners indicated willingness to contribute additional funds to DTDW to meet its obligations.  Therefore, we have recorded affiliate credit loss impairment expense for the entire net due from DTDW balance as of June 30, 2020 totaling $12.1 million.  In addition, based on our analysis we have determined that DTDW will be unable to pay its debt obligation and the debt will not be satisfied by liquidating the vessel and, as a result, we recorded additional impairment expense of $2.0 million for our expected share of the obligation guarantee.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

U.S. Defined Benefit Pension Plan

We have a defined benefit pension plan (pension plan) that covers certain U.S. citizen employees and other employees who are permanent residents of the United States. The pension plan was frozen during 2010.  We did not contribute to the pension plan during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and we are not required to contribute to the pension plan during the remaining quarters of calendar year 2020; however, we may, at our discretion, make contributions to the pension plan in order to manage our plan expenses.  Actuarial valuations are performed annually and an assessment of the future pension obligations and market value of the assets will determine if contributions are made in the future.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

We also support a non-contributory and non-qualified defined benefit supplemental executive retirement plan (supplemental plan) which was closed to new participants during 2010, that provided pension benefits to certain employees in excess of those allowed under our tax-qualified pension plan.  We contributed $0.4 million and $0.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. We expect to contribute $0.8 million to the supplemental plan during the remainder of 2020. Our obligations under the supplemental plan were $21.2 million and $21.4 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and are included in “accrued costs and expenses” and “other liabilities” on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

Other Defined Benefit Pension Plans

 

We also have defined benefit pension plans that cover certain Norwegian citizen employees and other employees who are permanent residents of Norway. Benefits are based on years of service and employee compensation. Our contributions to the Norwegian defined benefit pension plans during 2020 and 2019, were immaterial and we expect that any contributions for the remainder of calendar year 2020 will be immaterial. Substantially, all of our Norwegian employees were transferred from our defined benefit pension plans into a defined contribution plan during the first quarter of 2020.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 the fair value (Level 2) of the Secured Notes was $202.3 million and $237.6 million, respectively.  

 

(B)

The $19.9 million restricted cash on the balance sheet at June 30, 2020, represents approximately 65% of net proceeds from asset dispositions since the date of the last tender offer and is restricted by the terms of the Indenture.

 

(C)

We pay principal and interest on these notes semi-annually.  As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the aggregate fair value (Level 2) of the Troms Offshore borrowings was $65.2 million and $72.9 million, respectively. The weighted average interest rate of the Troms Offshore borrowings as of June 30, 2020 was 5.0%. 

 

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers, exchange offers, redemptions, one or more additional offers, or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

 

(10)

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Currency Devaluation and Fluctuation Risk

 

Due to our international operations, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations against the U.S. dollar. For some of our international contracts, a portion of the revenue and local expenses are incurred in local currencies with the result that we are at risk for changes in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies. We generally do not hedge against any foreign currency rate fluctuations associated with foreign currency contracts that arise in the normal course of business, which exposes us to the risk of exchange rate losses. To minimize the financial impact of these items, we attempt to contract a significant majority of our services in U.S. dollars. In addition, we attempt to minimize the financial impact of these risks by matching the currency of our operating costs with the currency of our revenue streams when considered appropriate. We continually monitor the currency exchange risks associated with all contracts not denominated in U.S. dollars.  

 

Legal Proceedings

 

Various legal proceedings and claims are outstanding which arose in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

(11)

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Other Financial Instruments

Our primary financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables and trade payables with book values that are considered to be representative of their respective fair values.

13


 

Cash Equivalents.  Our cash equivalents, which are securities with maturities less than 90 days, are held in money market funds, commercial paper or time deposit accounts with highly rated financial institutions. The carrying value for cash equivalents is considered to be representative of its fair value due to the short duration and conservative nature of the cash equivalent investment portfolio.  As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $226.3 and $227.6 million of cash equivalents.

 

(12)

PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT, ACCRUED COSTS AND EXPENSES, OTHER CURRENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER LIABILITIES          

Our property and equipment consist primarily of 146 active vessels, which excludes the 46 vessels we have classified as held for sale, located around the world.

(15)ASSET DISPOSITIONS, ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND ASSET IMPAIRMENTS

 

 In the fourth quarter of 2019, we evaluated our fleet for vessels to be considered for disposal and identified 46 vessels to be classified as held for sale.  In the second quarter of 2020, we identified 22 additional vessels to be sold.  The second quarter determination was largely a result of a worldwide downturn in the oil and gas industry precipitated by a global pandemic.  In the first quarter of 2020, we sold 8 vessels that were held for sale and revalued the remaining 38 vessels to estimated net realizable value recording additional impairment expense of $10.2 million.  In the second quarter of 2020, we sold 14 vessels that were held for sale and revalued the remaining 24 vessels to net realizable value recording additional impairment expense of $5.6 million.  At June 30, 2020, when we identified the additional 22 vessels to be reclassified as assets held for sale, we recognized impairment expense of $49.9 million associated with those vessels.  See the following table for activity in our assets held for sale account:

We consider the valuation approach for our assets held for sale to be a Level 3 fair value measurement due to the level of estimation involved in valuing assets to be scrapped or sold.  We determined the fair value of the vessels held for sale using three methodologies depending on the vessel and on our planned method of disposition.  We designated certain vessels to be scrapped and valued those vessels using scrap yard pricing schedules based on dollars per ton.  Other vessels were valued based on sales agreements or using comparative sales in the marketplace reduced by 10% to factor in the effects of completing a quick sale within the next twelve months.  We do not separate our asset impairment expense by segment because of the significant movement of our assets between segments.

 

In 2020, we have sold 25 vessels, 22 of which were classified as assets held for sale and three of which were sold from the active fleet.  We recognized gains on the asset sales of $5.3 million in the first quarter, $1.7 million in the second quarter and $7.0 million combined for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

In early 2020, it became evident that a novel coronavirus originating in Asia (COVID-19) could become a pandemic with worldwide reach.  By mid-March, when the World Health Organization declared the outbreak to be a pandemic (the “COVID-19 pandemic”), much of the industrialized world had initiated severe measures to lessen its impact.  The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility, uncertainty, and economic disruption during the first quarter of 2020.  With respect to our particular sector, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a much lower demand for oil as national, regional,

16


 

and local governments impose travel restrictions, border closings, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders, and limitations on business operations in order to contain its spread.  During this same time period, oil-producing countries have struggled to reach consensus on worldwide production levels, resulting in both a market oversupply of oil and a precipitous fall in oil prices. Combined, these conditions have adversely affected our operations and business beginning in the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 and continuing throughout the second quarter of 2020.  We expect our operations and business in the remainder of 2020 to continue to be negatively impacted. The reduction in demand for hydrocarbons together with an unprecedented decline in the price of oil has resulted in our primary customers, the oil and gas companies, making material reductions to their planned spending on offshore projects, compounding the effect of the virus on offshore operations. Further, these conditions, separately or together, are expected to continue to impact the demand for our services, the utilization and/or rates we can achieve for our assets and services, and the outlook for our industry in general.

 

We consider these events to be indicators that the value of our active offshore vessel fleet may be impaired.  As a result, as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, we performed Step 1 evaluations of our active offshore fleet under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 360, which governs the methodology for identifying and recording impairment of long-lived assets to determine if any of our asset groups have net book value in excess of undiscounted future net cash flows. Our evaluations did not indicate impairment of any of our asset groups.  We will continue to monitor the expected future cash flows and the fair market value of our asset groups for impairment.

ITEM 2.       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT

 

 

In accordance with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the information incorporated herein by reference contain certain forward-looking statements which reflect our current view with respect to future events and future financial performance. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than statements of historical fact. All such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, and our future results of operations could differ materially from our historical results or current expectations reflected by such forward-looking statements. Some of these risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, the risks related to fluctuations in worldwide energy demand and oil and natural gas prices, and continuing depressed levels of oil and natural gas prices without a clear indication of if, or when, prices will recover to a level to support renewed offshore exploration activities; fleet additions by competitors and industry overcapacity; our limited capital resources available to replenish our asset base as needed, including through acquisitions or vessel construction, and to fund our capital expenditure needs; uncertainty of global financial market conditions and potential constraints in accessing capital or credit if and when needed with favorable terms, if at all; changes in decisions and capital spending by customers in the energy industry and the industry expectations for offshore exploration, field development and production; consolidation of our customer base; loss of a major customer; changing customer demands for vessel specifications, which may make some of our older vessels technologically obsolete for certain customer projects or in certain markets; rapid technological changes; delays and other problems associated with vessel maintenance; the continued availability of qualified personnel and our ability to attract and retain them; the operating risks normally incident to our lines of business, including the potential impact of liquidated counterparties; our ability to comply with covenants in our indentures and other debt instruments; acts of terrorism and piracy; the impact of regional or global public health crises or pandemics; the impact of potential information technology, cybersecurity or data security breaches; integration of acquired businesses and entry into new lines of business; disagreements with our joint venture partners; natural disasters or significant weather conditions; unsettled political conditions, war, civil unrest and governmental actions, such as expropriation or enforcement of customs or other laws that are not well developed or consistently enforced; the risks associated with our international operations, including local content, local currency or similar requirements especially in higher political risk countries where we operate; interest rate and foreign currency fluctuations; labor changes proposed by international conventions; increased regulatory burdens and oversight; changes in laws governing the taxation of foreign source income; retention of skilled workers; enforcement of laws related to the environment, labor and foreign corrupt practices; the potential liability for remedial actions or assessments under existing or future environmental regulations or litigation; the effects of asserted and unasserted claims and the extent of available insurance coverage; and the resolution of pending legal proceedings.

 

Forward-looking statements, which can generally be identified by the use of such terminology as “may,” “can,” “potential,” “expect,” “project,” “target,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “believe,” “think,” “could,” “continue,” “intend,” “seek,” “plan,” and similar expressions contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, are not guarantees or assurances of future performance or events. Any forward-looking statements are based on our assessment of current industry, financial and economic information, which by its nature is dynamic and subject to rapid and possibly abrupt changes, which we may or may not be able to control.  Further, we may make changes to our business plans that could or will affect our results. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable when made, there can be no assurance that future developments that affect us will be those that we anticipate and have identified. The forward-looking statements should be considered in the context of the risk factors listed above, discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2020, as updated by subsequent filings with the SEC. Investors and prospective investors are cautioned not to rely unduly on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Management disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect new information, future events or developments.

 

In certain places in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we may refer to reports published by third parties that purport to describe trends or developments in energy production and drilling and exploration activity and we specifically disclaim any responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of such information and have undertaken no steps to update or independently verify such information.

The following information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and related disclosures and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2020.

About Tidewater

 

Our vessels and associated vessel services provide support for all phases of offshore oil and natural gas exploration, field development and production. These services include towing of, and anchor handling for, mobile offshore drilling units; transporting supplies and personnel necessary to sustain drilling, workover and production activities; offshore construction and seismic and subsea support; and a variety of specialized services such as pipe and cable laying. In addition, we have one of the broadest geographic operating footprints in the offshore vessel industry. Our global operating footprint allows us to react quickly to changing local market conditions and to be responsive to the changing requirements of the many customers with which we believe we have strong relationships. We are also one of the most experienced international operators in the offshore energy industry with a history spanning over 60 years.

At June 30, 2020, we owned 192 vessels (excluding 3 joint venture vessels), 146 of which are available to serve the global energy industry and 46 of which are available for immediate sale. The average age of our 146 active vessels at June 30, 2020 is 10.1 years.

Principal Factors That Drive Our Results

Our revenues, net earnings and cash flows from operations are largely dependent upon the activity level of our offshore marine vessel fleet. As is the case with the numerous other vessel operators in our industry, our business activity is largely dependent on the level of exploration, field development and production activity of our customers. Our customers’ business activity, in turn, is dependent on current and expected crude oil and natural gas prices, which fluctuate depending on expected future levels of supply and demand for crude oil and natural gas, and on estimates of the cost to find, develop and produce crude oil and natural gas reserves.

Our revenues in all segments are driven primarily by our fleet size, vessel utilization and day rates. Because a sizeable portion of our operating and depreciation costs do not change proportionally with changes in revenue, our operating profit is largely dependent on revenue levels.

 

Operating costs consist primarily of crew costs, repair and maintenance costs, insurance costs, fuel, lube oil and supplies costs and other vessel operating costs. Fleet size, fleet composition, geographic areas of operation, supply and demand for marine personnel, and local labor requirements are the major factors which affect overall crew costs in all segments. In addition, our newer, more technologically sophisticated vessels generally require a greater number of specially trained, more highly compensated fleet personnel than our older, smaller and less sophisticated vessels. Crew costs may increase if competition for skilled personnel intensifies, though a weaker offshore energy market should somewhat mitigate any potential inflation of crew costs.

 

Costs related to the recertification of vessels are deferred and amortized over 30 months on a straight-line basis. Maintenance costs incurred at the time of the recertification drydocking that are not related to the recertification of the vessel are expensed as incurred. Costs related to vessel improvements that either extend the vessel’s useful life or increase the vessel’s functionality are capitalized and depreciated.

 

Insurance costs are dependent on a variety of factors, including our safety record and pricing in the insurance markets, and can fluctuate over time. Our vessels are generally insured for up to their estimated fair market value in order to cover damage or loss.  We also purchase coverage for potential liabilities stemming from third-party losses with limits that we believe are reasonable for our operations, but do not generally purchase business interruption insurance or similar coverage. Insurance limits are reviewed annually, and third-party coverage is purchased based on the expected scope of ongoing operations and the cost of third-party coverage.

 

Fuel and lube costs can also fluctuate in any given period depending on the number and distance of vessel mobilizations, the number of active vessels off charter, drydockings, and changes in fuel prices. We also incur vessel operating costs that are aggregated as “other” vessel operating costs. These costs consist of brokers’ commissions, including commissions paid to unconsolidated joint venture companies, training costs, satellite communication fees, agent fees, port fees and other miscellaneous costs. Brokers’ commissions are incurred primarily in our non-United States operations where brokers

19


 

sometimes assist in obtaining work. Brokers generally are paid a percentage of day rates and, accordingly, commissions paid to brokers generally fluctuate in accordance with vessel revenue.

 

Sonatide Joint Venture (Angola)

 

We previously disclosed the significant financial and operational challenges that we confront with respect to operations in Angola, as well as steps that we have taken to address or mitigate those risks. Most of our attention has been focused in three areas: (i) reducing the net receivable balance due from Sonatide, our Angolan joint venture with Sonangol, for vessel services; (ii) reducing the foreign currency risk created by virtue of provisions of Angolan law that require that payment for a  portion of the services provided by Sonatide be paid in Angolan kwanza; and (iii) optimizing opportunities, consistent with Angolan law, for services provided by us to be paid for directly in U.S. dollars.  The amounts due from Sonatide are denominated in U.S. dollars; however, the underlying third-party customer payments to Sonatide were satisfied, in part, in Angolan kwanzas. We and Sonangol, our partner in Sonatide, have had discussions regarding how the net losses from the devaluation of certain Angolan kwanza denominated accounts should be shared.  In late 2019, we were informed that, as part of a broad privatization program, Sonangol intends to seek to divest itself from the Sonatide joint venture.

 

In the second quarter of 2020, Sonatide declared a $35.0 million dividend.  On June 22, 2020, Sonangol received $17.9 million and we received $17.1 million.  All of our share of the dividend is reflected as dividend income from unconsolidated company in the consolidated statement of operations because (i) our investment in the Sonatide joint venture had previously been written down to zero, (ii) the distributions are not refundable and (iii) we are not liable for the obligations of or committed to provide financial support to the Sonatide joint venture.  In addition, as a result of the aforementioned dividend payment, the cash balances of the joint venture were significantly reduced and we determined that, as a result, a significant portion of our net due from Sonatide balance was compromised.  On June 30, 2020, we recorded a $41.5 million affiliate credit loss impairment expense.

 

Refer to Note (7) of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the Sonatide joint venture.

 

DTDW Joint Venture (Nigeria)

 

We own 40% of the DTDW joint venture in Nigeria.  Our partner, who owns 60%, is a Nigerian national.  DTDW owns one offshore service vessel and has long term debt of $5.6 million which is secured by the vessel and guarantees from the DTDW partners. We also operate company owned vessels in Nigeria for which our partner receives a commission.  As of June 30, 2020, we had only one company owned vessel operating in Nigeria and the DTDW owned vessel was not employed.  At the beginning of 2020 we had expected that we would be operating numerous vessels in Nigeria, but in the second quarter of 2020 the Covid pandemic and resulting oil price reduction caused our primary customer in Nigeria to eliminate all planned operations for 2020.  As a result, the near term cash flow projections indicate that DTDW does not have sufficient funds to meet its obligations to us or to the holder of its long term debt.  In the June 2020 DTDW board meeting neither of the DTDW partners indicated willingness to contribute additional funds to DTDW to meet its obligations.  Therefore, we have recorded an affiliate credit loss impairment expense for the entire net due from DTDW balance as of June 30, 2020 totaling $12.1 million.  In addition, based on our analysis we have determined that DTDW will be unable to pay its debt obligation and the debt will not be satisfied by liquidating the vessel and, as a result, we recorded additional impairment expense of $2.0 million for our expected share of the obligation guarantee.

 

Refer to Note (7) of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on the Nigeria joint venture.

Industry Conditions and Outlook

 

Our business is directly impacted by the level of activity in worldwide offshore oil and natural gas exploration, development and production, which in turn is influenced by trends in oil and natural gas prices. In addition, oil and natural gas prices are affected by a host of geopolitical and economic forces, including the fundamental principles of supply and demand.  In particular, the oil price is significantly influenced by actions of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC.  Prices are subject to significant uncertainty and, as a result, are extremely volatile. The industry experienced a severe downturn beginning in late 2014 that lasted through 2018 with prices falling into the high $20’s per barrel before recovering to average between $50.00 and $65.00 per barrel in 2019.  We had expected to begin to experience consistent operating cash flow in 2020.

20


 

In early 2020, it became evident that a novel coronavirus originating in Asia (COVID-19) could become a pandemic with worldwide reach.  By mid-March, when the World Health Organization declared the outbreak to be a pandemic (the “COVID-19 pandemic”), much of the industrialized world had initiated severe measures to lessen its impact.  The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility, uncertainty, and economic disruption during the first half of 2020.  

With respect to our particular sector, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a much lower demand for oil as national, regional, and local governments impose travel restrictions, border closings, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders, and limitations on business operations in order to contain its spread.  During this same time period, oil-producing countries have struggled to reach consensus on worldwide production levels, resulting in both a market oversupply of oil and a precipitous fall in oil prices.

Combined, these conditions adversely affected our operations and business beginning in late March 2020 and continuing through the second quarter of 2020 and we expect our operations and business during the remainder of 2020 to be negatively impacted. The reduction in demand for hydrocarbons together with an unprecedented decline in the price of oil has resulted in our primary customers, the oil and gas companies, making material reductions to their planned spending on offshore projects, compounding the effect of the virus on offshore operations. Further, these conditions, separately or together, are expected to continue to impact the demand for our services, the utilization and/or rates we can achieve for our assets and services, and the outlook for our industry in general.

As the pandemic has spread throughout the world, its impact on one or more of our locations, including our vessels, has affected our operations.  We have implemented various protocols for both onshore and offshore personnel in efforts to limit this impact, but there is no assurance that those efforts will be fully successful. The spread of COVID-19 to our onshore workforce could prevent us from supporting our offshore operations, we may experience reduced productivity as our onshore personnel continue to work remotely, and any spread to our key management personnel may disrupt our business. Any outbreak on our vessels may result in the vessel, or some or all of a vessel crew, being quarantined and therefore impede the vessel’s ability to generate revenue.  We have experienced challenges in connection with our offshore crew changes due to health and travel restrictions related to COVID-19, and those challenges and/or restrictions are expected to continue despite our efforts at mitigating them.  To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our operations and business, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks set forth in our SEC filings.

The effect on our business includes lockdowns of shipyards where we have vessels performing drydocks which will delay vessels returning to service and the cancellation and/or temporary delay of certain revenue vessel contracts allowed either under the contract provisions or by mutual agreement with our customers. These cancellations and delays affect approximately 19% of our 2020 contracts with durations in excess of three months which typically comprise over 90% of our contractual revenue.  It is possible that there will be additional cancellations or delays.

 

As a company, we have undertaken the following temporary measures to assist us in weathering the COVID 19 pandemic and allow us to recover as soon as possible:

 

 

Planned capital and dry dock expenditures tied to contracts referenced above will be temporarily delayed or cancelled.  As a result of the ongoing contract cancellations and delays we have postponed drydocks expected to cost approximately $28.0 million in 2020.  It is possible that additional planned drydocks will be cancelled or delayed due to contract cancellations or delays.  We cannot predict the number or cost of any additional cancellations or delays.

 

We have the ability to rapidly respond to contract cancellations and delays.  We have or will remove the crews and shut down all operations, depending on contract terms, on vessels associated with cancelled or delayed contracts.  We are also in the process of evaluating our general and administrative costs to reflect the current demand for our offshore support vessels.

The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is unknown and is rapidly evolving. The extent to which it impacts our business and operations will depend on the severity, location, and duration of the effects and spread of the pandemic itself, the actions undertaken by national, regional, and local governments and health officials to contain the virus or treat its effects, and how quickly and to what extent economic conditions improve and normal business and operating conditions resume.  As we cannot predict the duration or scope of this pandemic, the anticipated negative financial impact to our operating results cannot be reasonably estimated but could be both material and long-lasting.

21


 

We consider these events to be indicators that the value of our offshore vessel fleet may be impaired.  As a result, in the first quarter of 2020 we performed a Step 1 evaluation of our offshore fleet under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 360, which governs the methodology for identifying and recording impairment of long-lived assets to determine if any of our asset groups have net book value in excess of undiscounted future net cash flows. Our evaluation did not indicate impairment of any of our asset groups.  Our evaluation did, however, identify one asset group with a net book value of approximately $40.0 million where the undiscounted future net cash flows total was within 10% of the net book value of that asset group as of March 31, 2020. In the second quarter of 2020, we identified 22 vessels in our active fleet that were designated as assets held for sale.  Several of the identified vessels were in the asset group that had indications of potential impairment at March 31, 2020.  In conjunction with reclassifying the vessels to assets held for sale and revaluing the vessels’ carrying value to net realizable value, we recorded $49.9 million of impairment expense. In addition, at June 30, 2020, we performed another Step 1 impairment evaluation of our offshore fleet and did not identify any asset groups that had carrying values in excess of undiscounted future net cash flows. We also did not identify any asset group that had undiscounted future net cash flows within 10% of the net book value of that asset group. The eventual impact of the oil price reduction and the COVID 19 pandemic on our future operations is not known.  Depending on the severity of the impact, our expected cash flows in future periods could indicate impairment of one or more asset groups in our vessel fleet. We will continue to monitor the expected future cash flows and the fair market value of our asset groups for impairment.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019

 

Revenues for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, were $102.3 million and $125.9 million, respectively.  The decrease in revenue is primarily due to decreases in our West Africa segment, with 8 less active vessels and our Europe/Mediterranean segment, with 14 less active vessels. Both segments were significantly affected by the decrease in demand caused by the pandemic.  Overall, we had 25 less average active vessels in the second quarter of 2020 than in the second quarter of 2019.  Active utilization decreased from 79.3% in 2019 compared to 74.5% in 2020.

 

Vessel operating costs for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, were $64.8 million and $80.4 million, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in vessel activity, as we have 25 less active vessels in our fleet in the first quarter 2020 largely due to the downturn caused by the pandemic.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $28.1 million and $25.0 million, respectively. The decrease in depreciation from the sale in 2019 of over 40 vessels and the reclassification of an additional 46 vessels at year end 2019 from property and equipment to assets held for sale was more than offset by the increase in amortization expense related to deferred drydock expenditures.

 

General and administrative expenses for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, were $17.6 million and $23.7 million, respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to decreased personnel and benefit costs related to the significant restructuring of our executive management and corporate administrative functions in 2019 and cost cutting measures being implemented due to the current downturn.

 

Included in gain on asset dispositions, net for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, are $1.7 million of net gains from the disposal of 16 vessels and other assets. During the quarter ended June 31, 2019, we recognized losses of $0.5 million related to the disposal of 18 vessels and other assets.

 

In the three months ended June 30, 2020 we recorded $55.5 million of impairment expense related to valuation of our assets held for sale, $53.6 million affiliate credit loss impairment expense relating to the valuation of our net receivables from our joint ventures in Africa and $2.0 million of impairment related to a guarantee of long term debt of one of our African joint ventures.  

 

We recorded $17.1 million of dividend income from one of our African joint ventures in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

 

In November 2019, we paid down $125.0 million of our Senior Notes.  This reduced our interest expense by $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30. 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.  In addition, the reduction in cash plus a reduction in interest rates received on our cash balances reduced our interest income by $1.2 million for the same period.  

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2020 we recognized foreign exchange losses of $2.0 million and during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 we recognized de minimis foreign exchange gains.

22


 

The tax expense for the three months ending June 30, 2020 was $2.7 million compared to $5.5 million for the three months ending June 30,2019.  The decrease is due to lower income.

Results of Operations – Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019

 

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, were $218.7 million and $248.0 million, respectively.  The decrease in revenue is primarily due to decreases in our West Africa segment, with 9 less active vessels and our Europe/Mediterranean segment, with 10 less active vessels. Both segments were significantly affected by the decrease in demand caused by the pandemic. Overall, we had 20 less average active vessels in the six months ended June 30, 2020 than in the six months ended June 30, 2019.  Active utilization decreased from 79.9% in 2019 compared to 76.6% in 2020.

 

Vessel operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, were $143.6 million and $162.6 million, respectively. decrease is primarily due to a decrease in vessel activity, as we have 20 less active vessels in our fleet in the six months of 2020.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $55.3 million and $48.0 million, respectively. The decrease in depreciation from the sale in 2019 of over 40 vessels and the reclassification at year end 2019 of an additional 46 vessels from property and equipment to assets held for sale was more than offset by the increase in amortization expense related to deferred drydock expenditures.

 

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, were $39.0 million and $50.8 million, respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to decreased personnel and benefit costs related to the significant restructuring of our executive management and corporate administrative functions in 2019 and cost cutting measures being implemented due to the current downturn.

 

Included in gain on asset dispositions, net for the six months ended June 30, 2020, are $7.0 million of net gains from the disposal of 25 vessels and other assets. During the six months ended June 31, 2019, we recognized net gains of $0.8 million related to the disposal of 34 vessels and other assets.

 

In the six months ended June 30, 2020 we recorded $65.7 million of impairment expense related to valuation of our assets held for sale, $53.6 million affiliate credit loss impairment expense relating to the valuation of our net receivables from our joint ventures in Africa and $2.0 million of impairment related to a guarantee of long term debt of one of our African joint ventures.  

 

We recorded $17.1 million of dividend income from one of our African joint ventures in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

In November 2019, we paid down $125.0 million of our Senior Notes.  This reduced our interest expense by $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30. 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.  In addition, the reduction in cash plus a reduction in interest rates received on our cash balances reduced our interest income by $3.5 million for the same period.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2020 we recognized foreign exchange losses of $1.2 million and during the six months ended June 30, 2019 we recognized foreign exchange losses of $0.5 million.

 

The tax benefit for the six months ending June 30, 2020 was $2.4 million compared to a tax expense of $11.4 million for the six months ending June 30,2019.  The decrease in expense is related to changes in tax laws (primarily Cares Act refund) and also change in income.

This decrease is primarily the result of less demand due to the pandemic.  We had 5 less active vessels in the quarter ended March 31, 2020 than the comparable prior year period.

 

Vessel operating profit for the Americas segment for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $4.5 million, which was $1.6 million more than the operating profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The higher operating profit was due to a $3.5 million decrease in operating expenses, resulting from intensive cost saving measures taken in the second quarter of 2020 in response to the effect of the pandemic and a $0.8 million reduction in general and administrative costs primarily due to our ongoing cost saving initiatives as we react to the current downturn.

 

Middle East/Asia Pacific Segment Operations.  Vessel revenues in the Middle East/Asia Pacific segment increased 17%, or $3.5 million, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Active utilization for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 increased to 75.9% from 74.7%, average day rates increased almost 10% and average active vessels in the segment increased by two vessels.

 

The Middle East/Asia Pacific segment reported an operating profit of $0.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to an operating loss of $2.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to increased revenue.  The current downturn to this point has not impacted this segment’s results.

 

 

Europe/Mediterranean Segment Operations.  Vessel revenues in the Europe/Mediterranean segment decreased 41%, or $14.4 million, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019.  The decreased revenue was primarily attributable to 14 less active vessels.  Average day rates during these same periods decreased 2% because of decreased demand, effected by the pandemic, for vessels in the North Sea and Mediterranean. Active utilization increased two percentage points during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

 

The Europe/Mediterranean segment reported an operating loss of $1.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to an operating profit of $2.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 due to decreased revenue partially offset by $7.9 million in decreased operating costs, primarily due to lower personnel and repair and maintenance costs.

 

West Africa Segment Operations.  Vessel revenues in the West Africa segment decreased 32% or $10.6 million, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The West Africa active vessel fleet decreased by 8 vessels during the comparative periods. West Africa segment active utilization decreased as well from 76% during the second quarter of 2019 to 55% during the second quarter of 2020. Average day rates increased 13 percent due to the change in the mix of remaining contracts.  The decreases in revenue are almost entirely the result of lower demand caused by the effect of the pandemic.

 

Vessel operating profit for the West Africa segment decreased from $3.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 to an operating loss of $4.0 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to decreased revenue, partially offset by lower operating costs.

 

Results for six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019

 

Americas Segment Operations. Vessel revenues in the Americas segment decreased 6%, or $4.6 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease is primarily the result of lower demand caused by the effect of the pandemic.  The segment has four less vessels operating in the first six months of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.

 

Vessel operating profit for the Americas segment for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.3 million, which was $1.5 million more than the operating profit for the six months ended June 30, 2019.  This was primarily due to $8.1 million less operating costs resulting from the decrease in vessel activity due to the pandemic and $0.7 million lower general and administrative costs due to ongoing cost saving efforts.

 

Middle East/Asia Pacific Segment Operations.  Vessel revenues in the Middle East/Asia Pacific segment increased 19%, or $7.9 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. This segment had three more vessels operating in the first six months of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. Active

26


 

utilization for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased from 75.6% to 76.8%, and average day rates increased by nine percent.

 

The Middle East/Asia Pacific segment reported an operating loss of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to an operating loss of $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to increased revenue.

 

 

Europe/Mediterranean Segment Operations.  Vessel revenues in the Europe/Mediterranean segment decreased 21%, or $13.5 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.  The segment has 10 less vessels operating in the first six months of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The reduction is due mainly to the effects of the pandemic.  Average day rates during these same periods increased 5% and active utilization increased three percentage points during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

 

The Europe/Mediterranean segment reported an operating loss of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to an operating loss of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.  This is due mainly to the lower revenue offset somewhat with lower operating costs associated with the lower vessel activity and lower general and administrative costs resulting from our ongoing cost reduction efforts.

 

West Africa Segment Operations.  Vessel revenues in the West Africa segment decreased 30% or $20.2 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The West Africa active vessel fleet decreased by 9 vessels during the comparative periods. West Africa segment active utilization decreased as well from 76.4% to 61.5% primarily due to the effects of the pandemic, but day rates increased by five percent due to the change in the mix of contracts.

 

The West Africa segment reported an operating loss of $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to an operating profit of $11.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to decreased revenue. This segment had the most negative impact from the pandemic due to significant contract cancellations.

 

Vessel Utilization and Average Day Rates by Segment

 

Vessel utilization is determined primarily by market conditions and to a lesser extent by drydocking requirements. Vessel day rates are determined by the demand created largely through the level of offshore exploration, field development and production spending by energy companies relative to the supply of offshore support vessels. Specifications of available equipment and the scope of service provided may also influence vessel day rates. Vessel utilization rates are calculated by dividing the number of days a vessel works during a reporting period by the number of days the vessel is available to work in the reporting period. As such, stacked vessels depress utilization rates because stacked vessels are considered available to work and are included in the calculation of utilization rates. Average day rates are calculated by dividing the revenue a vessel earns during a reporting period by the number of days the vessel worked in the reporting period.

27


 

Total vessel utilization is calculated on all vessels in service (which includes stacked vessels, vessels held for sale and vessels in drydock) but do not include vessels owned by joint ventures (3 and 4 vessels at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively). Active utilization is calculated on active vessels (which excludes vessels held for sale).  Average day rates are calculated based on total vessel days worked.

The following tables compare day-based utilization percentages, average day rates and average total, active and stacked vessels by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Average active vessels exclude stacked vessels. We consider a vessel to be stacked if the vessel crew is furloughed or substantially reduced and limited maintenance is being performed on the vessel. We reduce operating costs by stacking vessels when management does not foresee opportunities to profitably or strategically operate the vessels in the near future. Vessels are stacked when market conditions warrant and they are no longer considered stacked when they are returned to active service, sold or otherwise disposed. When economically practical marketing opportunities arise, the stacked vessels can be returned to active service by performing any necessary maintenance on the vessel and either rehiring or returning fleet personnel to operate the vessel. Although not currently fulfilling charters, stacked vessels are included in the calculation

28


 

of utilization statistics. We had 63 and 60 stacked vessels at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  Total stacking costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were $4.8 million and $8.7 million, respectively.

 

Vessel Dispositions

We seek opportunities to sell and/or scrap our older vessels when market conditions warrant and opportunities arise. The majority of our vessels are sold to buyers who do not compete with us in the offshore energy industry. Vessels sales in 2020 included 22 vessels that were classified as assets held for sale and 3 vessels from our active fleet.

 

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Other Matters

 

Availability of Cash

 

At June 30, 2020, we had $206.4 million in cash and cash equivalents (excluding $19.9 million of restricted cash), including amounts held by foreign subsidiaries, the majority of which is available to us without adverse tax consequences. Included in foreign subsidiary cash are balances held in U.S. dollars and foreign currencies that await repatriation due to various currency conversion and repatriation constraints, or partner or tax related matters, prior to the cash being made available for remittance to our domestic accounts. We currently intend that earnings by foreign subsidiaries will be indefinitely reinvested in foreign jurisdictions in order to fund strategic initiatives (such as investment, expansion and acquisitions), fund working capital requirements and repay debt (both third-party and intercompany) of our foreign subsidiaries in the normal course of business. Moreover, we do not currently intend to repatriate earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to the U. S. because cash generated from our domestic businesses and the repayment of intercompany liabilities from foreign subsidiaries are currently deemed to be sufficient to fund the cash needs of our operations in the   U. S. Restricted cash of $19.9 million represents the portion of proceeds from vessel sales reserved for a cash tender of Senior Notes that may be required if certain conditions in the underlying indenture are satisfied.

 

During the first quarter of 2020, the industry was impacted by a world-wide pandemic that had the effect of isolating people across the world and significantly reducing the demand and price for crude oil.  See a detailed discussion under “Industry Conditions and Outlook” above.  The reduced oil price will impact our industry in the near term and if it is prolonged could impact us beyond this year.  We have significant cash on hand and the substantial portion of our debt is not due until 2022. As a company, we have undertaken the following temporary measures to assist us in weathering the pandemic and allow us to recover as soon as possible:

 

 

Planned capital and dry dock expenditures tied to contracts referenced in “Industry Conditions and Outlook” above will be temporarily delayed or cancelled. As a result of the ongoing contract cancellations and delays we have postponed drydocks expected to cost approximately $28.0 million in 2020.  It is possible that additional planned drydocks will be cancelled or delayed due to contract cancellations or delays.  We cannot predict the number or cost of such possible cancellations or delays.

 

 

We have the ability to rapidly respond to contract cancellations and delays.  We have or will remove the crews and shut down all operations, depending on contract terms on vessels associated with cancelled or delayed contracts.  We continue to dispose of vessels and their related stacking cost. We have also been reducing our general and administrative costs to reflect the current demand for our offshore support vessels.

 

Our objective in financing our business is to maintain adequate financial resources and access to sufficient levels of liquidity. We do not have a revolving credit facility. Cash and cash equivalents and net cash provided by operating activities provide us, in our opinion, with sufficient liquidity to meet our liquidity requirements.

 

 

Debt

 

Refer to Note (9) of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further details on our indebtedness.

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or

29


 

exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $12.8 million and $20.7 million, respectively.

 

Net cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020, reflects a net loss of $129.4 million, which includes non-cash depreciation and amortization of $55.3 million, net gains on asset dispositions of $7.0 million, an affiliate credit loss impairment expense of $53.6 million and long-lived asset impairments of $65.7 million.  Combined changes in operating assets and liabilities and in amounts due to/from affiliate, net used $28.3 million in cash and cash paid for deferred drydocking and survey costs was $29.0 million.

 

Net cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019 reflects a net loss of $36.8 million, which includes non-cash depreciation and amortization of $48.0 million, gain on asset dispositions, net of $0.8 million and stock-based compensation expense of $9.2 million.  Combined charges in operating assets and liabilities and in amounts due to/from affiliate, net, used $11.0 million of cash and cash paid for deferred drydock and survey costs of $28.7 million.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash provided by in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $16.8 million and $11.7 million, respectively. Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily reflects the receipt of $20.9 million related to the sale or scrapping of 25 vessels.  Additions to properties and equipment were comprised of approximately $2.8 million in capitalized upgrades to existing vessels and equipment and $1.3 million for other property and equipment purchases.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily reflects the receipt of $20.6 million related to the sale or scrapping of 34 vessels. Additions to properties and equipment were comprised of approximately $8.0 million in capitalized upgrades to existing vessels and equipment and $0.8  million for other property and equipment purchases. 

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $5.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively.  Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 included $4.7 million of scheduled semiannual principal payments on Troms offshore debt and $0.6 million of taxes paid to related share-based compensation.

 

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 included $3.6 million of scheduled semiannual principal payments on Troms offshore debt, $1.8 million of taxes paid to related share-based compensation and the repurchase of $0.2 million of New Secured Notes resulting from a tender offer.

ITEM 4.       CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that all information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, any control system, no matter how well conceived and followed, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

We evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

31


 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Various legal proceedings and claims are outstanding which arose in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Information related to various commitments and contingencies, including legal proceedings, is disclosed in Note (10) of Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

ITEM 1A.       RISK FACTORS

 

The significant factors known to us that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results are described in Item 2 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2020, except for the addition of the following risk factors.

 

Risks Related to our Business

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected and may, in the future, have a material negative impact on our operations and business.  In early 2020, it became evident that a novel coronavirus originating in Asia (COVID-19) could become a pandemic with worldwide reach.  By mid-March, when the World Health Organization declared the outbreak to be a pandemic (the “COVID-19 pandemic”), much of the industrialized world had taken severe measures to lessen its impact.  The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility, uncertainty, and economic disruption during the first six months of 2020.

The spread of COVID-19 to one or more of our locations, including our vessels, could significantly impact our operations.  While we have implemented various protocols for both onshore and offshore personnel in efforts to limit the impact of COVID-19, there is no assurance that those efforts will be fully successful. The spread of COVID-19 to our onshore workforce could prevent us from supporting our offshore operations, we may experience reduced productivity as our onshore personnel works remotely, and any spread to our key management personnel may disrupt our business. Any outbreak on our vessels may result in the vessel, or some or all of a vessel crew, being quarantined and therefore impede the vessel’s ability to generate revenue.  We have experienced challenges in connection with our offshore crew changes due to health and travel restrictions related to COVID-19, and those challenges and/or restrictions may continue or worsen despite our efforts at mitigating them.  To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our operations and business, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks set forth in our SEC filings, such as those relating to our financial performance and debt obligations.

The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is unknown and is rapidly evolving. The extent to which it impacts our business and operations and ability to preserve our liquidity will depend on the severity, location, and duration of the effects and spread of the pandemic itself, the actions undertaken by national, regional, and local governments and health officials to contain the virus or treat its effects, and how quickly and to what extent economic conditions improve and normal business and operating conditions resume.  As we cannot predict the duration or scope of this pandemic, the anticipated negative financial impact to our operating results cannot be reasonably estimated but could be both material and long-lasting.

Recent disruptions in the global market for oil and natural gas, which have led to market oversupply and depressed commodity prices, have adversely affected our operations and may, in the future, materially disrupt our operations and adversely impact our business and financial results.  With respect to our particular sector, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a much lower demand for oil as national, regional, and local governments impose travel restrictions, border closings, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders, and limitations on business operations in order to contain its spread.  During this same time period, oil-producing countries have struggled to reach consensus on worldwide production levels, resulting in both a market oversupply of oil and a precipitous fall in oil prices.

Combined, these conditions have adversely affected our operations and business beginning with the latter part of the first fiscal quarter of 2020 and we do expect our operations and business in 2020 to be negatively impacted. The reduction in demand for hydrocarbons together with an unprecedented decline in the price of oil has resulted in our primary customers, the oil and gas companies, making material reductions to their planned spending on offshore projects, compounding the effect of the virus on offshore operations. Further, these conditions, separately or together, may

32


 

continue to impact the demand for our services, the utilization and/or rates we can achieve for our assets and services, and the outlook for our industry in general. Although, as of the date of this filing, oil-producing countries have reached a tentative agreement regarding future output, oil prices will remain depressed as long as the market is oversupplied and demand will remain depressed until global economic conditions improve.
