Commitments And Contingencies COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation. In the ordinary course of business, we are, from time to time, involved in litigation or subject to disputes, governmental investigations or claims related to our business activities, including, among other things:

performance- or warranty-related matters under our customer and supplier contracts and other business arrangements; and
workers’ compensation claims, Jones Act claims, occupational hazard claims, premises liability claims and other claims.

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 have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation and other dispute resolution proceedings and, in some cases, the availability and amount of potentially available insurance, we can provide no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for the fiscal period in which that resolution occurs.

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 the energy industry and the U.S. government, which are major sources of our revenue. Due to their short-term nature, carrying values of our accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair market values.

We estimated the aggregate fair market value of the Senior Notes to be $675 million as of June 30, 2023, 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 (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 terms for the assets or liabilities).

Foreign currency gains (losses) related to the Angolan kwanza of $(6.5) million and $1.2 million in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $(6.0) million and $2.1 million in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, were primarily related to increasing (declining) exchange rates for the Angolan kwanza relative to the U.S. dollar. We recorded foreign currency transaction gains (losses) related to the Angolan kwanza as a component of other income (expense), net in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Any conversion of cash balances from kwanza to U.S. dollars is controlled by the central bank in Angola. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we had the equivalent of approximately $4.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of kwanza cash balances in Angola reflected on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

To mitigate our currency exposure risk in Angola, we have used kwanza to purchase equivalent Angolan central bank (Banco Nacional de Angola) bonds. The 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. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we had $6.2 million, respectively, of U.S. dollar equivalent Angolan bonds. These bonds mature in September 2023 and are classified as available-for-sale securities; accordingly, they are recorded at fair market value in other current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We did not sell any of our remaining Angolan bonds in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

We estimated the fair market value of the Angolan bonds to be $6.4 million as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, using quoted market 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. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we had $0.1 million in unrealized gains, net of tax, related to these bonds as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In the three-month period ended June 30, 2021, we were notified by a customer in our Manufactured Products segment that it was suspending a contract that was substantially complete. Specific to this contract, we billed and received $11 million of accounts receivable during the first six months of 2023. As of June 30, 2023, we had outstanding contract assets of approximately $20 million for the contract and no contract liabilities. As of December 31, 2022, we had outstanding contract assets of approximately $19 million for the contract and contract liabilities of $0.6 million prepaid for storage of components. We are in discussions with the customer concerning the
timing of remaining payments. We continue to believe that we will realize these contract assets at their book values, although we can provide no assurance as to the timing of receipt of the remaining payments.
