NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF MAJOR ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation. We have prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to instructions for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, which we are required to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). These financial statements do not include all information and footnotes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). These financial statements reflect all adjustments that we believe are necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2017 and our results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed herein, all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oceaneering International, Inc. and our 50% or more owned and controlled subsidiaries. We also consolidate entities that are determined to be variable interest entities if we determine that we are the primary beneficiary; otherwise, we account for those entities using the equity method of accounting. We use the equity method to account for our investments in unconsolidated affiliated companies of which we own an equity interest of between 20% and 50% and as to which we have significant influence, but not control, over operations. We use the cost method for all other long-term investments. Investments in entities that we do not consolidate are reflected on our balance sheet in Other non-current assets. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires that our management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications. Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of investment.

Accounts Receivable – Allowances for Doubtful Accounts. We determine the need for allowances for doubtful accounts using the specific identification method. We do not generally require collateral from our customers.

Inventory. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We determine cost using the weighted-average method.

Property and Equipment and Long-Lived Intangible Assets. We provide for depreciation of property and equipment on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. We charge the costs of repair and maintenance of property and equipment to operations as incurred, while we capitalize the costs of improvements that extend asset lives or functionality. Upon the disposition of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved and any resulting gain or loss is included as an adjustment to cost of services and products.

Intangible assets, primarily acquired in connection with business combinations, include trade names, intellectual property and customer relationships and are being amortized over their estimated useful lives.

We capitalize interest on assets where the construction period is anticipated to be more than three months. We capitalized $1.0 million and $0.9 million of interest in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. We do not allocate general administrative costs to capital projects.

Our management periodically, and upon the occurrence of a triggering event, reviews the realizability of our property and equipment and long-lived intangible assets to determine whether any events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, we base our evaluation on impairment indicators such as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefits of the assets, any historical or future profitability measurements and other external market conditions or factors that may be present. If such impairment indicators are present or other factors exist that

Table of Contents

indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, we determine whether an impairment has occurred through the use of an undiscounted cash flows analysis of the asset at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows exist. If an impairment has occurred, we recognize a loss for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the asset. For assets held for sale or disposal, the fair value of the asset is measured using fair market value less cost to sell. Assets are classified as held-for-sale when we have a plan for disposal of certain assets and those assets meet the held for sale criteria.

Business Acquisitions. We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, and, in each case, we allocate the acquisition price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair market values at the date of acquisition.

Goodwill. Under existing GAAP at December 31, 2016, in our annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment, we first assessed qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances led to a determination that it was more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit was less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, we determined it was more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, we were required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test. We tested the goodwill attributable to each of our reporting units for impairment as of December 31, 2016 and concluded that there was no impairment. In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04 "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." This update simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the amendments in this update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The amendments in this update are effective beginning January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for testing dates after January 1, 2017, and the update is to be applied on a prospective basis. We have adopted this update effective January 1, 2017.

In addition to our annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment, upon the occurrence of a triggering event, we review our goodwill to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount.

Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency for several of our foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency. Results of operations for foreign subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates during the period. Assets and liabilities of these foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and the resulting translation adjustments are recognized, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of shareholders' equity. All foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recognized currently in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

New Accounting Standards. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09, as amended, completes the joint effort by the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board to improve financial reporting by creating common revenue recognition guidance for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014-09 applies to all companies that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for us for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is not permitted before periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and we have elected to apply ASU 2014-09 by recognizing the cumulative effect of applying ASU 2014-09 at the date of initial application and not adjusting comparative information.

We have formed a project team to implement this standard. Our project team has completed its planning work and performed an initial assessment of our revenue streams relevant to the standard. We believe that our plan will enable us to complete all of the required work to assess our revenue position, create the necessary policies, procedures and controls and calculate the cumulative effect of applying ASU 2014-09 at the date of initial application, in line with the timeline and requirements of the standard. We expect to be able to provide a

Table of Contents

preliminary qualitative assessment of the effects of the impacts of ASU 2014-09 on our existing contracts in our next quarterly reporting period.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, "Inventory – Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." ASU 2015-11 requires companies to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value rather than at the lower of cost or market. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. We have adopted this guidance for our inventories beginning January 1, 2017, as required.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes." Current U.S. GAAP requires an entity to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. The update requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for our financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted. We adopted this guidance as of December 31, 2016.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10) Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." This update:


•	requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income;


•	simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment — when a qualitative assessment indicates that impairment exists, an entity is required to measure the investment at fair value;


•	eliminates the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet;


•	requires entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes;


•	requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments;


•	requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; and


•	clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets.

ASU 2016-01 will be effective for us beginning on January 1, 2018. We are currently assessing the impact of the requirements of ASU 2016-01 on our consolidated financial statements and future disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases." This update requires reporting entities to separate the lease components from the non-lease components in a contract and recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for substantially all lease arrangements. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for us beginning January 1, 2019. We are currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-02 and have not yet determined its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation – Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." This update simplifies several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and the classification on the statement of cash flows. In addition, the update allows an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur. The element of the update that will have the most impact on our financial statements will be income tax consequences. See Note 6 "Income Taxes" for the effect this update has had on our income taxes in 2017. Excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies on share-based compensation awards are now included in our tax provision within our condensed consolidated statement of operations as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur, rather than (as was the previous accounting treatment) recording in additional paid-in capital on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We have also elected to continue our current policy of

Table of Contents

estimating forfeitures of share-based compensation awards at the time of grant and revising in subsequent periods to reflect actual forfeitures. In our consolidated statement of cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, we have reclassified two items to conform with the presentation specified under ASU 2016-09: (1) we have reclassified the effect related to the tax deficiency associated with share-based compensation from financing activities to operating activities; and (2) we have reclassified the amounts related to withholding tax payments from operating activities to financing activities. Other than these two cash flow items applied retrospectively, we have implemented ASU 2016-09 prospectively beginning January 1, 2017.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." This update was issued to clarify a diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows and addresses eight specific cash flow issues, with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. One of the items addressed affects how we previously treated cash proceeds received from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies. These proceeds are now classified in our statement of cash flows as cash inflows from investing activities. Previously, we classified these proceeds as cash inflows from operating activities. We adopted ASU 2016-15 for the year ended December 31, 2016 and this update did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, "Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory." Current U.S. GAAP generally prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. The amendments in this update will eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory. Two common examples of assets included within the scope of this update are intellectual property and property, plant, and equipment. The exception for an intra-entity transfer of inventory will remain in place. The amendments in this update are effective for us beginning January 1, 2018. We do not anticipate that this update will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

3. DEBT

Long-term Debt consisted of the following:




	(in thousands)	Mar 31, 2017			Dec 31, 2016
4.650% Senior Notes due 2024:
	Principal amount of the notes	$	500,000		$	500,000
	Issuance costs, net of amortization	(5,214		)	(5,385		)
	Fair value of interest rate swaps on $200 million of principal	(878		)	(1,557		)
Term Loan Facility		300,000			300,000
Revolving Credit Facility		—			—
Long-term Debt		$	793,908		$	793,058

In November 2014, we completed the public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.650% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "Senior Notes"). We pay interest on the Senior Notes on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The Senior Notes are scheduled to mature on November 15, 2024. We may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes prior to maturity at specified redemption prices. We used the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including funding an acquisition, other capital expenditures and repurchases of shares of our common stock.

In October 2014, we entered into a new credit agreement (as amended, the "Credit Agreement") with a group of banks to replace our prior principal credit agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for a $300 million three-year term loan (the "Term Loan Facility") and a $500 million five-year revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). Subject to certain conditions, the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility may be increased by up to $300 million at any time upon agreement between us and existing or additional lenders. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility may be used for general corporate purposes. Simultaneously with the execution of the Credit Agreement and pursuant to its terms, we repaid all amounts outstanding under, and terminated, our prior principal credit agreement.

In November 2015, we entered into an Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to Credit Agreement ("Amendment No. 1"). Amendment No. 1 amended the Credit Agreement to (1) replace the maximum leverage ratio financial covenant with a new financial covenant restricting the maximum total capitalization ratio (defined in Amendment No. 1 to be the ratio of consolidated debt to total capitalization) to 55% and (2) extend the maturities of the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility by one year each, which maturity terms have since been superseded by amendment, as described below.

In November 2016, we entered into an Agreement and Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement ("Amendment No. 2"). Amendment No. 2 amended the Credit Agreement to, among other things, extend the maturities of the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility to October 25, 2019 and October 25, 2021, respectively, with the extending Lenders, which represent 90% of the existing commitments of the Lenders, such that (a) the total commitments for the Revolving Credit Facility will be $500 million until October 25, 2020 and thereafter $450 million until October 25, 2021, and (b) the outstanding term loan advances pursuant to the Term Loan Facility will be $300 million until October 27, 2018 and thereafter $270 million until October 25, 2019.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at an Adjusted Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate (both as defined in the Credit Agreement), at our option, plus an applicable margin based on our Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and, at our election, based on the ratings of our senior unsecured debt by designated ratings services, thereafter to be based on such debt ratings. The applicable margin varies: (1) in the case of advances bearing interest at the Adjusted Base Rate, from 0.125% to 0.750% for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and from 0% to 0.500% for borrowings under the Term Loan Facility; and (2) in the case of advances bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate, from 1.125% to 1.750% for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and from 1.000% to 1.500% for borrowings under the Term Loan Facility. The Adjusted Base Rate is the highest of (1) the per annum rate established by the administrative agent as its prime rate, (2) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (3) the daily one-month LIBOR plus 1%. We pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.125% to 0.300% on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, depending on our Leverage Ratio. The commitment fees are included as interest expense in our consolidated financial statements.

The Credit Agreement contains various covenants that we believe are customary for agreements of this nature, including, but not limited to, restrictions on our ability and the ability of each of our subsidiaries to incur debt, grant liens, make certain investments, make distributions, merge or consolidate, sell assets, enter into transactions with affiliates and enter into certain restrictive agreements. We are also subject to a maximum total capitalization ratio of 55%, as noted above. The Credit Agreement includes customary events of default and associated remedies. As of March 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement.

We incurred $6.9 million of issuance costs related to the Senior Notes and $2.2 million of new loan costs, including costs of the Amendments, related to the Credit Agreement. We are amortizing these costs, which are included on our balance sheet, net of accumulated amortization, as a reduction of debt for the Senior Notes and as an other non-current asset for the Credit Agreement, to interest expense over ten years for the Senior Notes and over six years for the Credit Agreement. Please refer to Note 4 - Commitments and Contingencies - for more information on our interest rate swaps.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation. On June 17, 2014, Peter L. Jacobs, a purported shareholder, filed a derivative complaint against all of the then current members of our board of directors and one of our former directors, as defendants, and our company, as nominal defendant, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. Through the complaint, the plaintiff is asserting, on behalf of our company, actions for breach of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment in connection with prior determinations of our board of directors relating to nonexecutive director compensation. The plaintiff is seeking relief including disgorgement of payments made to the defendants, an award of unspecified damages and an award for attorneys’ fees and other costs. We and the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint and a supporting brief on which the Court has not yet ruled. In any event, our company is only a nominal defendant in this litigation, and we do not expect the resolution of this matter to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to actions for damages alleging personal injury under the general maritime laws of the United States, including the Jones Act, for alleged negligence. We report actions for personal injury to our insurance carriers and believe that the settlement or disposition of those claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Various other actions and claims are pending against us, most of which are covered by insurance. Although we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these matters, we believe that our ultimate liability, if any, that may result from these other actions and claims will not materially affect our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Financial Instruments and Risk Concentration. In the normal course of business, we manage risks associated with foreign exchange rates and interest rates through a variety of strategies, including the use of hedging transactions. As a matter of policy, we do not use derivative instruments unless we have an underlying exposure. Other financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are principally cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of the underlying instruments. Accounts receivable are generated from a broad group of customers, primarily from within the energy industry, which is our major source of revenue. Due to their short-term nature, carrying values of our accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair market values. We had borrowings of $300 million as of March 31, 2017 under our Term Loan Facility. Due to the short-term nature of the associated interest rate periods, the carrying value of our debt under the Term Loan Facility approximates its fair value. The fair value of this debt is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under U.S. GAAP (inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term for the assets or liabilities).

Table of Contents

We estimated the fair market value of the Senior Notes to be $500 million as of March 31, 2017, based on quoted prices. Since the market for the Senior Notes is not an active market, the fair value of the Senior Notes is classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under U.S. GAAP.

We have two interest rate swaps in place on a total of $200 million of the Senior Notes for the period to November 2024. The agreements swap the fixed interest rate of 4.650% on $100 million of the Senior Notes to the floating rate of one month LIBOR plus 2.426% and one month LIBOR plus 2.823% on another $100 million. We estimate the combined fair value of the interest rate swaps to be a net liability of $0.9 million as of March 31, 2017, with $1.4 million included on our balance sheet in our other long-term liabilities, and $0.5 million included in non-current assets. These values were arrived at using a discounted cash flow model using Level 2 inputs.

Since the second quarter of 2015, the exchange rate for the Angolan kwanza relative to the U.S. dollar generally has been declining. As our functional currency in Angola is the U.S. dollar, we recorded foreign currency transaction losses related to the kwanza of $0.5 million and $7.0 million in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as a component of Other income (expense), net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for those respective periods. Our foreign currency transaction losses related primarily to the remeasurement of our Angolan kwanza cash balances to U.S. dollars. Conversion of cash balances from kwanza to U.S. dollars is controlled by the central bank in Angola, and the central bank has slowed this process since mid-2015, causing our kwanza cash balances to subsequently increase. As of March 31, 2017, we had the equivalent of approximately $21 million of kwanza cash balances in Angola reflected on our balance sheet.

To mitigate our currency exposure risk in Angola, through March 31, 2017 we used kwanza to purchase $59 million equivalent Angolan central bank (Banco Nacional de Angola) bonds with various maturities throughout 2018. These bonds are denominated as U.S. dollar equivalents, so that, upon payment of semi-annual interest and principal upon maturity, payment is made in kwanza, equivalent to the respective U.S. dollars at the then-current exchange rate. We have classified these instruments as held-to-maturity, and have recorded the original cost on our balance sheet as other non-current assets. We estimated the fair market value of the Angolan bonds to be $57 million at March 31, 2017 using quoted prices. Since the market for the Angolan bonds is not an active market, the fair value of the Angolan bonds is classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under U.S. GAAP.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE, SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION AND SHARE REPURCHASE PLAN

Earnings per Share. The table that follows presents our computation of weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding, which we use in our earnings per share calculations. For each period presented, our net income (loss) allocable to both common shareholders and diluted common shareholders is the same as our net income (loss) in our consolidated statements of operations.



	Three Months Ended Mar 31,
(in thousands)	2017	2016
Basic shares outstanding	98,138	97,952
Effect of restricted stock units	—	334
Diluted shares outstanding	98,138	98,286

From the second quarter of 2014 through the third quarter of 2016, we paid a quarterly dividend to our common shareholders of $0.27 per share. Starting in the fourth quarter of 2016, we have been paying a dividend of $0.15 per share. Our latest quarterly dividend is $0.15 per share and was declared in April 2017 and is payable in June 2017. As we incurred a loss for the three months ended March 31, 2017, the effect of our outstanding restricted stock units was anti-dilutive, and therefore did not increase our diluted shares outstanding.

Share-Based Compensation. We have no outstanding stock options and, therefore, no share-based compensation to be recognized pursuant to stock option grants.

During 2017, 2016 and 2015, we granted restricted units of our common stock to certain of our key executives and employees. During 2017 and 2016, our Board of Directors granted restricted common stock to our nonemployee directors. During 2015, our Board of Directors granted restricted units of our common stock to our Chairman and restricted common stock to our other nonemployee directors. The restricted units granted to our key executives and key employees generally vest in full on the third anniversary of the award date, conditional on continued

Table of Contents

employment. The restricted stock unit grants, including those granted to our Chairman, can vest pro rata over three years, provided the individual meets certain age and years-of-service requirements. The shares of restricted common stock we grant to our non-employee directors vest in full on the first anniversary of the award date, conditional upon continued service as a director. Each grantee of shares of restricted stock is deemed to be the record owner of those shares during the restriction period, with the right to vote and receive any dividends on those shares. The restricted stock units outstanding have no voting or dividend rights.

For each of the restricted stock units granted in 2015 through 2017, at the earlier of three years after grant or at termination of employment or service, the grantee will be issued one share of our common stock for each unit vested. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respective totals of 1,244,348 and 1,052,007 shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units were outstanding.

We estimate that share-based compensation cost not yet recognized related to shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units, based on their grant-date fair values, was $22 million at March 31, 2017. This expense is being recognized on a staged-vesting basis over three years for awards attributable to individuals meeting certain age and years-of-service requirements, and on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting period of one or three years for the other awards.

Share Repurchase Plan. In December 2014, our Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to 10 million shares of our common stock. Under this plan, we had repurchased 2.0 million shares of our common stock for $100 million through December 31, 2016. We did not repurchase any shares under the plan during the three-month period ended March 31, 2017. We account for the shares we hold in treasury under the cost method, at average cost.

6. INCOME TAXES

During interim periods, we provide for income taxes based on our current estimated annual effective tax rate using assumptions as to (1) earnings and other factors that would affect the tax provision for the remainder of the year and (2) the operations of foreign branches and subsidiaries that are subject to local income and withholding taxes. We conduct business through several foreign subsidiaries and, although we expect our consolidated operations to be profitable, there is no assurance that profits will be earned in entities or jurisdictions that have net operating loss carryforwards available. In the period ended March 31, 2017, we recognized additional tax expense of $2.1 million from discrete items. The primary discrete tax expense item was $2.9 million as a result of our implementation of ASU 2016-09, "Compensation – Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." Excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies on share-based compensation awards are now included in our tax provision within our condensed consolidated statement of operations as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur, rather than (as was the previous accounting treatment) recording in additional paid-in capital on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 1 for further discussion of ASU 2016-09. The effective tax rate, before discrete items, of 37.0% for the period ended March 31, 2017 was higher than the federal statutory rate of 35.0%, primarily due to non-deductible expenses partially offset by our intention to continue to indefinitely reinvest in certain of our international operations. The effective tax rate of 31.3% for the period ended March 31, 2016 was lower than the federal statutory rate of 35.0%, primarily due to our intention to indefinitely reinvest in certain of our international operations. We do not provide for U.S. taxes on the portion of our foreign earnings we indefinitely reinvest.

We conduct our international operations in a number of locations that have varying laws and regulations with regard to income and other taxes, some of which are subject to interpretation. We recognize the benefit for a tax position if the benefit is more likely than not to be sustainable upon audit by the applicable taxing authority. If this threshold is met, the tax benefit is then measured and recognized at the largest amount that we believe is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We do not believe that the total of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease in the next 12 months.

We account for any applicable interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of our provision for income taxes on our financial statements. Including associated foreign tax credits and penalties and interest, we have accrued a net total of $5.8 million in Other Long-term Liabilities on our balance sheet for unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2017. All additions or reductions to those liabilities would affect our effective income tax rate in the periods of change.

7. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

We are a global oilfield provider of engineered services and products, primarily to the offshore oil and gas industry, with a focus on deepwater applications. Through the use of our applied technology expertise, we also serve the defense, aerospace and commercial theme park industries. Our Oilfield business consists of Remotely Operated Vehicles ("ROVs"), Subsea Products, Subsea Projects and Asset Integrity. Our ROV segment provides submersible vehicles operated from the surface to support offshore oil and gas exploration, development, production and decommissioning activities. Our Subsea Products segment supplies a variety of specialty subsea hardware and related services. To improve operational efficiency, we have reorganized our Subsea Products segment into two business units: (1) manufactured products; and (2) service and rental. Manufactured products include production control umbilicals and specialty subsea hardware, while service and rental includes tooling, subsea work systems and installation and workover control systems. This internal reorganization did not affect our segment reporting structure or the historical comparability of our segment results. Our Subsea Projects segment provides multiservice subsea support vessels and oilfield diving and support vessel operations, primarily for inspection, maintenance and repair and installation activities. Since April 2015, we have also provided survey, autonomous underwater vehicle ("AUV") and satellite-positioning services. Our Asset Integrity segment provides asset integrity management and assessment services and nondestructive testing and inspection. Our Advanced Technologies business provides project management, engineering services and equipment for applications in non-oilfield markets. Unallocated Expenses are those not associated with a specific business segment. These consist of expenses related to our incentive and deferred compensation plans, including restricted stock and bonuses, as well as other general expenses, including corporate administrative expenses.

There are no differences in the basis of segmentation or in the basis of measurement of segment profit or loss from those used in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.

We determine income (loss) from operations for each business segment before interest income or expense, other income (expense) and provision for income taxes. We do not consider an allocation of these items to be practical. Our equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates is part of our Subsea Projects segment.

Item 2.	Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Certain statements we make in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, without limitation, statements regarding our expectations about:


•	second quarter and the full year of 2017 operating results and earnings per share, and the contributions from our segments to those results (including anticipated revenue, operating income and utilization information), as well as the items below the operating income line;


•	demand and business activity levels;


•	our plans for future operations (including planned additions to and retirements from our remotely operated vehicle ("ROV") fleet, our intent regarding the new multiservice subsea support vessel scheduled for delivery in the latter part of 2017, and other capital expenditures);


•	our future cash flows;


•	the adequacy of our liquidity, cash flows and capital resources;


•	our expectations regarding shares to be repurchased under our share repurchase plan;


•	our expectations regarding future dividends and their sustainability;


•	our anticipated tax rates and underlying assumptions;


•	the implementation of new accounting standards and related policies, procedures and controls;


•	seasonality; and


•	industry conditions.

These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those we have referred to under the headings "Risk Factors" and "Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" in Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, because of the inherent limitations in the forecasting process, as well as the relatively volatile nature of the industries in which we operate, we can give no assurance that those expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly, evaluation of our future prospects must be made with caution when relying on forward-looking information.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Executive Overview

Our diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $(0.08), as compared to $0.26 for the corresponding period of the prior year. Taking into account our results through March 31, 2017 and our outlook for the remainder of 2017, we project our 2017 diluted earnings per share to be less than our 2016 diluted earnings per share of $0.25.

For the second quarter of 2017, we anticipate seasonal operating income improvements from all of our oilfield business segments, except for Subsea Products, which we expect to be relatively flat.

For the full year 2017, we project that we will be marginally profitable at the operating income line on a consolidated basis. We anticipate continued lower global demand for deepwater drilling, field development, and inspection, maintenance and repair and installation activities due to the current and anticipated oil price environment, which has led to spending cuts from our customers and pricing pressure. Below the operating income line, we expect:


•	a loss on our equity investment in Medusa Spar LLC as production continues to decline; and


•	increased interest expense from higher interest rates, which affects our floating rate debt and our swaps to floating rates on $200 million of fixed-rate debt;

In the first quarter of 2017, we recognized an additional tax expense of $2.1 million for discrete items. The primary discrete tax expense item was $2.9 million related to the tax effects on the difference between book and tax amounts of share-based compensation paid in the periods. As a result of our implementation of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, "Compensation – Stock Compensation – Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting," these tax effects are recognized in our statements of operations effective January 1, 2017. Previously, these tax effects were reflected on our balance sheet as adjustments to additional

Table of Contents

paid-in capital. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report for further discussion of ASU 2016-09.

In the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we incurred foreign exchange losses of $2.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively. The foreign exchange losses in 2016 primarily related to the Angolan kwanza and its declining exchange rate relative to the U.S. dollar. We did not incur significant exchange losses in any one currency during the three months ended March 31, 2017. Our foreign exchange losses are reflected in Other income (expense), net.

We added two new ROVs to our fleet during the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in a total of 282 ROVs in our ROV fleet. Since 2014, we have decreased our ROV fleet size as a result of lower market demand.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For information about our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates, please refer to the discussion in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 under the heading "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in Item 7 – "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2017, we had working capital of $769 million, including $463 million of cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, we had $500 million of borrowing capacity available under our revolving credit facility under a credit agreement with a group of banks (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement includes a $300 million, three-year term loan and a $500 million, five-year, revolving credit facility. We consider our liquidity, cash flows and capital resources to be adequate to support our existing operations, capital commitments and anticipated dividends.

Our capital expenditures were $18 million during the first three months of 2017, as compared to $21 million during the first three months of last year. We currently estimate our capital expenditures for 2017, excluding business acquisitions, will be in the range of $90 million to $120 million, including $25 million of construction progress payments for the new multiservice subsea support vessel, to be named the Ocean Evolution, discussed below.

During the third quarter of 2013, we signed an agreement with a shipyard for the construction of a subsea support vessel, to be named the Ocean Evolution. We expect to take delivery of that vessel in the latter part of 2017. We intend for the vessel to be U.S.-flagged and documented with a coastwise endorsement by the U.S. Coast Guard. It is expected to have an overall length of 353 feet, a Class 2 dynamic positioning system, accommodations for 110 personnel, a helideck, a 250-ton active heave-compensated crane, and a working moonpool. We expect to outfit the vessel with two of our high specification work-class ROVs. The vessel will also be equipped with a satellite communications system capable of transmitting streaming video for real-time work observation by shore personnel. We anticipate the vessel will be used to augment our ability to provide subsea intervention services in the ultra-deep waters of the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. These services are required to perform inspection, maintenance and repair projects and hardware installations.

Unless indicated otherwise, each of the vessels discussed below is a deepwater multiservice subsea support vessel outfitted with two of our high-specification work-class ROVs.

Beginning in the third quarter of 2008, we chartered a vessel, the Olympic Intervention IV, for an initial term of five years. Following extension periods, the charter expired in July 2016, and we released the vessel to its owner. We had been using the Olympic Intervention IV in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

In 2012, we moved the chartered vessel Ocean Intervention III to Angola and also chartered the Bourbon Oceanteam 101 to work on a three-year field support vessel services contract for a unit of BP plc. We had extended the charter of the Bourbon Oceanteam 101 to January 2017. However, in early 2016, the customer exercised its right, under the field support vessel services contract, to terminate its use of the Bourbon Oceanteam 101 at the end of May 2016. Under the terms of the contract, the costs incurred by us associated with the early release and demobilization of the vessel were reimbursed by the customer. Following the release of the vessel, we redelivered it to the vessel supplier. Under the field support vessel services contract, which has been extended through January 2019, we are continuing to supply project management, engineering and the Ocean Intervention III, which we have under charter on a month-to-month basis through July 2017. We also

Table of Contents

provide ROV tooling, asset integrity services and installation and workover control system services. We also have provided other chartered vessels and barges as requested by the customer.

In March 2013, we commenced a five-year charter for a Jones Act-compliant multi-service support vessel, the Ocean Alliance, we have been using in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. In January 2015, we commenced a two-year contract with a customer for the use of the Ocean Alliance. The contract expired in January 2017, and we are marketing the vessel for spot market work in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

In December 2013, we commenced a three-year charter for the Normand Flower, a multi-service subsea marine support vessel. We made modifications to the vessel and used the vessel in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico to perform inspection, maintenance and repair projects and hardware installations. In December 2016, we declined our option to extend the charter and the vessel was released.

In November 2015, we commenced a two-year charter for the use of the Island Pride, a multi-service subsea marine support vessel. We are using the vessel under a two-year contract to provide field support services off the coast of India for an oil and gas customer based in India. We have options to extend the charter for up to two additional years.

We also charter or lease vessels on a short-term basis as necessary to augment our fleet.

As of March 31, 2017, we had long-term debt in the principal amount of $800 million outstanding and $500 million available under our revolving credit facility provided under the Credit Agreement.

Our principal source of cash from operating activities is our net income, adjusted for the non-cash effects of, among other things, depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes and noncash compensation under our share-based compensation plans. Our $59 million and $53 million of cash provided from operating activities in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, were principally affected by cash increases (decreases) of:


•	$60 million and $36 million, respectively, from changes in accounts receivable;


•	$(6) million and $46 million, respectively, from changes in other operating assets; and


•	$(31) million and $(94) million, respectively, from changes in current liabilities.

We had an increase in cash related to accounts receivable in the three months ended March 31, 2017, as we had lower revenue in the quarter ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2016, so, combined with our cash collections, our overall accounts receivable balances decreased. The first quarter 2016 increase in cash related to changes in other operating assets was largely attributable to a prepayment we made during 2015 to a steel tube vendor for material we received in 2016 for a steel tube umbilical contract. Each of the first quarter 2017 and 2016 decreases in cash related to current liabilities reflected lower business levels than we had during the fourth quarter of the respective immediately preceding fiscal year.

In the three months ended March 31, 2017, we used $31 million of cash in investing activities. The cash used in investing activities largely related to capital expenditures of $18 million. We also used $17 million in financing activities, primarily for the payment of cash dividends of $15 million. In the three months ended March 31, 2016, we used $37 million of cash in investing activities. The cash used in investing activities related to the capital expenditures. We also used $28 million in financing activities, primarily for the payment of cash dividends of $26 million.

We have not guaranteed any debt not reflected on our consolidated balance sheet, and we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined by SEC rules.

In December 2014, our Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to 10 million shares of our common stock. Under this plan, we had repurchased 2.0 million shares of our common stock for $100 million through March 31, 2017, all during 2015. We account for the shares we hold in treasury under the cost method, at average cost. The timing and amount of any future repurchases will be determined by our management. We expect that any additional shares repurchased under the plan will be held as treasury stock for possible future use. The plan does not obligate us to repurchase any particular number of shares.

From the second quarter of 2014 through the third quarter of 2016, we paid a quarterly dividend to our common shareholders of $0.27 per share. Starting in the fourth quarter of 2016, we have been paying a dividend of $0.15 per share. Our latest quarterly dividend was declared in April 2017 at $0.15 per share and is payable in June 2017. We believe it was prudent to lower our dividend rate to a sustainable level, in light of the projected low level of offshore activity through 2017.

Results of Operations

We operate in five business segments. The segments are contained within two businesses — services and products provided to the oil and gas industry ("Oilfield") and all other services and products ("Advanced Technologies"). Our Unallocated Expenses are those not associated with a specific business segment.

Consolidated revenue and profitability information is as follows:

In our Subsea Projects segment, we generate a material amount of our consolidated revenue from contracts for services in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, which has historically been more active from April through October, as compared to the rest of the year. The European operations of our Asset Integrity segment have historically been more active in the second and third quarters; however, the reduced customer spending levels in the current commodity price environment have substantially obscured this seasonality since mid-2014. Revenue in our ROV segment is generally subject to seasonal variations in demand, with our first quarter typically being the low quarter of the year. The level of our ROV seasonality primarily depends on the number of ROVs we have engaged in vessel-based subsea infrastructure inspection, maintenance and repair and installation, which is more seasonal than drilling support. Periods since mid-2014 reflect an exception, as there has been a general decline in offshore activity, which caused a decrease in our ROV days on hire and utilization during each sequential quarter from September 2014 through March 2017, with one exception. The number of ROV days on hire for the quarter ended June 2016 was slightly higher than that of the quarter ended March 2016. Revenue in our Subsea Products and Advanced Technologies segments has generally not been seasonal.

Oilfield

The following table sets forth the revenues and margins for our Oilfield business segments for the periods indicated. In the ROV section of the table that follows, "Days available" includes all days from the first day that an ROV is placed into service until the ROV is retired. All days during this period are considered available days, including periods when an ROV is undergoing maintenance or repairs. Our ROVs do not have scheduled maintenance or repair that requires significant time when the ROVs are not available for utilization.

In general, our Oilfield business focuses on supplying services and products to the deepwater sector of the offshore market. We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, lower global demand for deepwater drilling, field development, and inspection, maintenance and repair activities due to the decline in oil prices since June 2014. As a result, we are forecasting substantial decreases in each of our oilfield operating business segments for the full year of 2017 as compared to 2016.

Table of Contents

We believe we are the world's largest provider of ROV services, and this business segment historically, but not currently, has been the largest contributor to our Oilfield business operating income. Our ROV segment revenue reflects the utilization percentages, fleet sizes and average pricing of the respective periods. Our ROV operating margins have declined during periods of lower utilization and pricing, as depreciation has become a higher percentage of revenue. In the full year of 2014, ROV depreciation and amortization was 14% of ROV revenue; in the full year of 2015, it was 18% of ROV revenue; in the full year 2016, it was 27% of revenue; and in the three months ended March 31, 2017 it was 31% of ROV revenue. Our ROV operating income decreased in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, as a result of fewer days on hire and lower average revenue per day-on-hire. ROV operating income increased compared to the immediately preceding quarter, as the prior quarter included a total of $4.6 million of restructuring expenses and allowances for bad debts. We added two new ROVs to our fleet during the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in a total of 282 ROVs in our ROV fleet. We expect our second quarter 2017 ROV operating income to increase from that of the first quarter, from seasonal increases in days on hire. For the full year of 2017 compared to 2016, we expect ROV operating income to be up slightly, as 2016 included charges for inventory write-downs and fixed asset write-offs of $36.0 million.

To improve operational efficiency, in 2016 we reorganized our Subsea Products segment into two business units – (1) manufactured products and (2) service and rental. Manufactured products include production control umbilicals and specialty subsea hardware, while service and rental includes tooling, subsea work systems and installation and workover control systems. This internal reorganization did not affect our segment reporting structure or the historical comparability of our segment results. The following table presents revenue from manufactured products and service and rental, as their respective percentages of total Subsea Products revenue:



	Three Months Ended
	Mar 31, 2017		Mar 31, 2016		Dec 31, 2016
Manufactured products	71	%	65	%	64	%

Service and rental	29	%	35	%	36	%

Our Subsea Products revenue and operating income were lower in the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, due to lower demand and pricing in both service and rental and manufactured products. Subsea Products operating income in the first quarter of 2017 was higher than that of the immediately preceding quarter as the prior quarter included a total of $3.8 million of restructuring and bad debt expenses, and the current quarter benefited from cost reductions taken in prior periods.

Our Subsea Products backlog was $407 million as of March 31, 2017, compared to $431 million as of December 31, 2016. The backlog decline was primarily in manufactured products, particularly in umbilicals. We expect Subsea Products operating income to be relatively flat in the second quarter 2017 compared to the first quarter. For the full year of 2017 compared to 2016, we expect lower Subsea Products operating income with operating margins in the mid-to-high single digit range.

Our Subsea Projects operating income was lower in the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, as a result of generally lower vessel demand and pricing, and the release in May 2016 of the Bourbon Oceanteam 101, which was previously deployed under our field support vessel services contract offshore Angola. Our Subsea Projects operating income was lower in the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the immediately preceding quarter, as a result of pricing and demand in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico for deepwater vessel and diving services. In the second quarter of 2017, we expect higher operating income than we had for the first quarter, from a seasonal increase in U.S. Gulf of Mexico for deepwater vessel and diving services. For the full year of 2017 compared to 2016, we expect lower Subsea Projects operating income as a result of decreased global demand.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, Asset Integrity's operating results improved on lower revenue, as we benefited from restructuring efforts we made in prior periods. Compared to the immediately preceding quarter, our Asset Integrity revenue and operating income decreased due to seasonally decreased demand. For the second quarter of 2017, we expect Asset Integrity to experience a seasonal increase in operating income over the first quarter. For the full year of 2017 compared to

Table of Contents

2016, we expect lower Asset Integrity revenue as a result of decreased demand, with operating income slightly higher as 2016 Asset Integrity results included charges totaling $6.4 million for restructuring and bad debts.

Advanced Technologies

Revenue and margin information was as follows:



	Three Months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	Mar 31, 2017			Mar 31, 2016			Dec 31, 2016
Revenue	$	85,901		$	66,889		$	77,007
Gross Margin	10,072			5,827			7,692
Operating Income	5,026			593			1,331
Operating Income %	6		%	1		%	2		%

Advanced Technologies operating income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 was higher than that of the corresponding period of the prior year, from improved execution on theme park and other commercial projects. Operating income in the first quarter of 2017 was higher than that of the immediately preceding quarter, due to increased commercial activities and work for the U.S. Navy. We expect an improvement in our Advanced Technologies operating income in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter, due to continued increased commercial activities and work for the U.S. Navy. For the full year of 2017 compared to 2016, we expect Advanced Technologies revenue and operating income to be higher than that of 2016, on increased activity in both our government contracting and commercial businesses, with improved execution.

Unallocated Expenses

Our Unallocated Expenses, i.e., those not associated with a specific business segment, within gross profit consist of expenses related to our incentive and deferred compensation plans, including restricted stock units, performance units and bonuses, as well as other general expenses. Our Unallocated Expenses within operating income consist of those expenses within gross profit plus general and administrative expenses related to corporate functions.

The following table sets forth our Unallocated Expenses for the periods indicated.



	Three Months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	Mar 31, 2017			Mar 31, 2016			Dec 31, 2016
Gross margin expenses	$	15,635		$	18,657		$	9,361
Operating income expenses	25,038			27,344			18,907
% of revenue	6		%	4		%	4		%

Our Unallocated Expenses for the first quarter of 2017 increased from those of the immediately preceding quarter, primarily due to higher estimated incentive plan compensation. For the remainder of 2017, we expect our quarterly Unallocated Expenses to be in the mid-to-upper $20 million range.

The following table sets forth our significant financial statement items below the income from operations line.

Interest income	$	1,337		$	295		$	1,479

Other income (expense), net	(2,556		)	(5,988		)	579
Provision for income taxes (benefit)	(1,083		)	11,437			2,534

In addition to interest on borrowings, interest expense includes amortization of loan costs, fees for lender commitments under our revolving credit agreement and fees for standby letters of credit and bank guarantees that banks issue on our behalf for performance bonds, bid bonds and self-insurance requirements.

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses is the principal component of Other income (expense), net. In the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we incurred foreign currency transaction losses of $2.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively. In three months ended March 31, 2017, we did not incur significant currency losses in any one currency. The currency losses in 2016 primarily related to the Angolan kwanza and its declining exchange rate relative to the U.S. dollar, and related primarily to our cash balances in Angola. Conversion of cash balances from Angolan kwanza to U.S. dollars is controlled by the central bank in Angola, and the central bank slowed this process starting in mid-2015, causing our cash balances in kwanza to increase.

The provisions for income taxes were related to U.S. income taxes that we provided at estimated annual effective rates using assumptions as to earnings and other factors that would affect the tax provision for the remainder of the year, and to the operations of foreign branches and subsidiaries that were subject to local income and withholding taxes. We currently anticipate our effective tax rate for 2017, before discrete items, will be 37.0%. Factors that could affect our estimate of this rate include our profitability levels in general and the geographic mix in the sources of our results. We do not believe the effective rate is meaningful, as the rate is less significant at a low pretax income or a pretax loss position. The effective tax rate, before discrete items, of 37.0% for the period ended March 31, 2017 was higher than the federal statutory rate of 35.0%, primarily due to non-deductible expenses partially offset by our intention to continue to indefinitely reinvest in certain of our international operations. The effective tax rate of 31.3% for the period ended March 31, 2016 was lower than the federal statutory rate of 35.0%, primarily due to our intention to indefinitely reinvest in certain of our international operations. We do not provide for U.S. taxes on the portion of our foreign earnings we indefinitely reinvest.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are currently exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions we have entered into in the normal course of business. These risks relate to interest rate changes and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. We do not believe these risks are material. We have not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments for speculative or trading purposes. When we have a significant amount of borrowings, we typically manage our exposure to interest rate changes through the use of a combination of fixed- and floating-rate debt. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for a description of our revolving credit facility and interest rates on our borrowings. We have two interest rate swaps in place on a total of $200 million of the Senior Notes for the period to November 2024. The agreements swap the fixed interest rate of 4.650% on $100 million of the Senior Notes to the floating rate of one month LIBOR plus 2.426% and one month LIBOR plus 2.823% on another $100 million. We believe significant interest rate changes would not have a material near-term impact on our future earnings or cash flows.

Because we operate in various oil and gas exploration and production regions in the world, we conduct a portion of our business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The functional currency for several of our international operations is the applicable local currency. A stronger U.S. dollar against the U.K. pound sterling, the Norwegian kroner and the Brazilian real may result in lower operating income. We manage our exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates principally through arranging compensation in U.S. dollars or freely convertible currency and, to the extent possible, by limiting compensation received in other currencies to amounts necessary to meet obligations denominated in those currencies. We use the exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date to translate assets and liabilities as to which the functional currency is the local currency, resulting in translation adjustments that we reflect as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the shareholders' equity section of our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recorded net adjustments to our equity accounts of $(7.1) million and $34.6 million in the periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Negative adjustments reflect the net impact of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against various foreign currencies for locations where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Conversely, positive adjustments reflect the effect of a weakening U.S. dollar.

We recorded foreign currency transaction losses of $2.2 million and $5.9 million in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Those losses are included in Other expense, net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations in those respective periods. Since the second quarter of 2015, the exchange rate for the Angolan kwanza relative to the U.S. dollar generally has been declining. As our functional currency in Angola is the U.S. dollar, we recorded foreign currency transaction losses related to the kwanza of $0.5 million and $7.0 million in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as a component of Other income (expense), net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for those respective periods. Our foreign currency transaction losses related primarily to the remeasurement of our Angolan kwanza cash balances to U.S. dollars. Conversion of cash balances from kwanza to U.S. dollars is controlled by the central bank in Angola, and the central bank has slowed this process since mid-2015, causing our kwanza cash balances to subsequently increase. As of March 31, 2017, we had the equivalent of approximately $21 million of kwanza cash balances in Angola reflected on our balance sheet.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2017 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	Legal Proceedings.

On June 17, 2014, Peter L. Jacobs, a purported shareholder, filed a derivative complaint against all of the then current members of our board of directors and one of our former directors, as defendants, and our company, as nominal defendant, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. Through the complaint, the plaintiff is asserting, on behalf of our company, actions for breach of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment in connection with prior determinations of our board of directors relating to nonexecutive director compensation. The plaintiff is seeking relief including disgorgement of payments made to the defendants, an award of unspecified damages and an award for attorneys’ fees and other costs. We and the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint and a supporting brief on which the Court has not yet ruled. In any event, our company is only a nominal defendant in this litigation, and we do not expect the resolution of this matter to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
