(“Pride,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a leading international provider of offshore contract drilling services. We provide these services to oil and natural gas exploration and production companies through the operation and management of 24 offshore rigs. We also have three deepwater drillships under construction. </div> </div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><b><i>Basis of Presentation</i></b> </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">In August 2009, we completed the spin-off of Seahawk Drilling, Inc., which holds the assets and liabilities that were associated with our 20-rig mat-supported jackup business. The results of operations, for all periods presented, of the assets disposed of in this transaction have been reclassified to loss from discontinued operations. Except where noted, the discussions in the following notes relate to our continuing operations only (see Note 2). </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. We believe that the presentation and disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial information included herein reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. The results of operations for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year or any other interim period. </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">In the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, all dollar and share amounts, other than per share amounts, in tabulations are in millions of dollars and shares, respectively, unless otherwise noted. </div> </div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><b><i>Management Estimates</i></b> </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. </div> </div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><b><i>Property and Equipment</i></b> </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Property and equipment comprise a significant amount of our total assets. We determine the carrying value of these assets based on property and equipment policies that incorporate our estimates, assumptions and judgments relative to the carrying value, remaining useful lives and salvage value of our rigs and other assets. </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">We evaluate our property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of such assets or asset groups may not be recoverable. Asset impairment evaluations are, by nature, highly subjective. They involve expectations about future cash flows generated by our assets, and reflect management’s assumptions and judgments regarding future industry conditions and their effect on future utilization levels, dayrates and costs. The use of different estimates and assumptions could result in materially different carrying values of our assets and could materially affect our results of operations. </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">During the second quarter of 2010, management determined that a triggering event had occurred for the Independent Leg Jackup asset group as of June 30, 2010. The triggering event resulted from current and forecasted operating losses within the asset group. Management performed an undiscounted cash flow analysis for the group’s long-lived assets to determine if there was any impairment of the asset group. The assessment indicated that undiscounted cash flows for the asset group exceeded its carrying value by $134.2 million, as of June 30, 2010. Therefore, the asset group is not impaired. </div>   </div>  <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; margin-left: 0in; "> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Future changes that might occur in our Independent Leg Jackup asset group, such as the stacking of additional rigs, decreases in dayrates and declining utilization, might result in changes to our estimates and assumptions used in our undiscounted cash flow analysis. This could affect whether or not projected undiscounted cash flows continue to exceed the carrying value of the Independent Leg Jackup asset group and could result in a required impairment charge in a future period. </div> </div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt"><b><i>Fair Value Accounting</i></b> </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Our foreign currency forward contracts are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. See Note 5 — Fair Value Measurements. </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, we use various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value. For accounting disclosure purposes, a three-level valuation hierarchy of fair value measurements has been established. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. </div> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded or disclosed at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and consider assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. When possible, we look to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, we look to market observable data for similar assets and liabilities. Nevertheless, certain assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets, and we are required to use alternative valuation techniques to derive an estimated fair value measurement. We adopted new guidance on January 1 and April 1, 2009 regarding disclosure of fair value measurement with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements. </div> </div> <div style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt;

ASU 2010-6 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. We adopted ASU 2010-6 as of January 1, 2010.
