FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
  
Statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Forward-looking statements include words or phrases such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "could," "may," "might," "should," "will" and similar words and specifically include statements regarding expected financial performance; expected utilization, day rates, revenues, operating expenses, contract term, contract backlog, capital expenditures, insurance, financing and funding; the timing of availability, delivery, mobilization, contract commencement or relocation or other movement of rigs; future rig construction (including construction in progress and completion thereof), enhancement, upgrade or repair and timing and cost thereof; the suitability of rigs for future contracts; general market, business and industry conditions, trends and outlook; future operations; the impact of increasing regulatory complexity; expected contributions from our rig fleet expansion program and our program to high-grade the rig fleet by investing in new equipment and divesting selected assets and underutilized rigs; expense management; and the likely outcome of litigation, legal proceedings, investigations or insurance or other claims and the timing thereof.

Such statements are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results to vary materially from those indicated, including:
 
•
downtime and other risks associated with offshore rig operations or rig relocations, including rig or equipment failure, damage and other unplanned repairs, the limited availability of transport vessels, hazards, self-imposed drilling limitations and other delays due to severe storms and hurricanes and the limited availability or high cost of insurance coverage for certain offshore perils;

•
changes in worldwide rig supply and demand, competition or technology, including changes as a result of delivery of newbuild drilling rigs;

•
changes in future levels of drilling activity and expenditures, whether as a result of global capital markets and liquidity, prices of oil and natural gas or otherwise, which may cause us to idle or stack additional rigs;

•
governmental action, terrorism, piracy, military action and political and economic uncertainties, including uncertainty or instability resulting from civil unrest, political demonstrations, mass strikes, or an escalation or additional outbreak of armed hostilities or other crises in oil or natural gas producing areas of the Middle East, North Africa, West Africa or other geographic areas, which may result in expropriation, nationalization, confiscation or deprivation of our assets or result in claims of a force majeure situation;

•
risks inherent to shipyard rig construction, repair or enhancement, including risks associated with concentration of our construction contracts with three shipyards, unexpected delays in equipment delivery and engineering or design issues following delivery, or changes in commencement, completion or service dates;

•
possible cancellation or suspension of drilling contracts as a result of mechanical difficulties, performance or other reasons;

•
the outcome of litigation, legal proceedings, investigations or other claims or contract disputes, including any inability to collect receivables or resolve significant contractual or day rate disputes, any purported renegotiation, nullification, cancellation or breach of contracts with customers or other parties and any failure to negotiate or complete definitive contracts following announcements of receipt of letters of intent;

•
governmental regulatory, legislative and permitting requirements affecting drilling operations, including limitations on drilling locations (such as the Gulf of Mexico during hurricane season);


1


•
new and future regulatory, legislative or permitting requirements, future lease sales, changes in laws, rules and regulations that have or may impose increased financial responsibility, additional oil spill abatement contingency plan capability requirements and other governmental actions that may result in claims of force majeure or otherwise adversely affect our existing drilling contracts;

•
our ability to attract and retain skilled personnel on commercially reasonable terms, whether due to labor regulations, unionization or otherwise;

•
environmental or other liabilities, risks or losses, whether related to storm or hurricane damage, losses or liabilities (including wreckage or debris removal), collisions, groundings, blowouts, fires, explosions and other accidents or terrorism or otherwise, for which insurance coverage and contractual indemnities may be insufficient, unenforceable or otherwise unavailable;

•
our ability to obtain financing and pursue other business opportunities may be limited by our debt levels and debt agreement restrictions;

•
our ability to realize expected benefits from the 2009 redomestication as a U.K. public limited company and the related reorganization of Ensco’s corporate structure, including the effect of any changes in laws, rules and regulations, or the interpretation thereof, or in the applicable facts, that could adversely affect our status as a non-U.S. corporation for U.S. tax purposes or otherwise adversely affect our anticipated consolidated effective income tax rate;

•
delays in actual contract commencement dates;

•
adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates, including their effect on the fair value measurement of our derivative instruments; and

•
potential long-lived asset or goodwill impairments.

In addition to the numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions described above, you should also carefully read and consider "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in Part I and "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as updated in our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and on the Investor Relations section of our website at www.enscoplc.com.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Ensco plc:
 

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Ensco plc and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2014, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, and comprehensive income, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Ensco plc and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 26, 2014, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note 1 -Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 
We prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Ensco plc and subsidiaries (the "Company," "Ensco," "our," "we" or "us") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") included in the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The financial information included in this report is unaudited but, in our opinion, includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The December 31, 2013 condensed consolidated balance sheet data were derived from our 2013 audited consolidated financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the related revenues and expenses and disclosures of gain and loss contingencies as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The financial data for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 included herein have been subjected to a limited review by KPMG LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm. The accompanying independent registered public accounting firm's review report is not a report within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, and the independent registered public accounting firm's liability under Section 11 does not extend to it.
 
Results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2014. We recommend these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on February 26, 2014 and April 29, 2014, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("Update 2014-09"), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017, and early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Assets
 
Our supplemental executive retirement plans (the "SERP") are non-qualified plans that provide eligible employees an opportunity to defer a portion of their compensation for use after retirement. Assets held in the SERP were marketable securities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 inputs and were included in other assets, net, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value measurement of assets held in the SERP was based on quoted market prices.
 
Derivatives
 
Our derivatives were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs. See "Note 3 - Derivative Instruments" for additional information on our derivatives, including a description of our foreign currency hedging activities and related methodologies used to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk. The fair value measurement of our derivatives was based on market prices that are generally observable for similar assets or liabilities at commonly-quoted intervals.

The estimated fair values of our senior notes and debentures were determined using quoted market prices. The estimated fair values of our Maritime Administration ("MARAD") bonds were determined using an income approach valuation model. The estimated fair values of our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, receivables, trade payables and other liabilities approximated their carrying values as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Note 3 -Derivative Instruments
    
Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. As is customary in the oil and gas industry, a majority of our revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars; however, a portion of the revenues earned and expenses incurred by certain of our subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar ("foreign currencies"). These transactions are remeasured in U.S. dollars based on a combination of both current and historical exchange rates. We use foreign currency forward contracts to reduce our exposure to various market risks, primarily foreign currency exchange rate risk.
 
All derivatives were recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Derivatives subject to legally enforceable master netting agreements were not offset in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accounting for the gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting.  Net assets of $17.0 million and $1.8 million associated with our foreign currency forward contracts were included on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  All of our derivatives mature during the next 18 months.  See "Note 2 - Fair Value Measurements" for additional information on the fair value measurement of our derivatives.

We utilize cash flow hedges to hedge forecasted foreign currency denominated transactions, primarily to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with contract drilling expenses and capital expenditures denominated in various currencies. As of June 30, 2014, we had cash flow hedges outstanding to exchange an aggregate $372.2 million for various foreign currencies, including $187.0 million for British pounds, $91.4 million for Brazilian reais, $39.5 million for Singapore dollars, $22.2 million for Australian dollars, $20.9 million for euros and $11.2 million for other currencies.

Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI.  Amounts recorded in AOCI associated with cash flow hedges are subsequently reclassified into contract drilling, depreciation or interest expense as earnings are affected by the underlying hedged forecasted transaction.

(2)
Gains and losses recognized in income for ineffectiveness and amounts excluded from effectiveness testing were included in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, $2.3 million of gains were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $200,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, $500,000 of losses were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $200,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(5) 
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, $1.7 million of gains were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $400,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, $400,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into contract drilling expense and $400,000 of gains were reclassified from AOCI into depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

We have net assets and liabilities denominated in numerous foreign currencies and use various methods to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. We predominantly structure our drilling contracts in U.S. dollars, which significantly reduces the portion of our cash flows and assets denominated in foreign currencies. We occasionally enter into derivatives that hedge the fair value of recognized foreign currency denominated assets or liabilities but do not designate such derivatives as hedging instruments.  In these situations, a natural hedging relationship generally exists whereby changes in the fair value of the derivatives offset changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged items. As of June 30, 2014, we held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments to exchange an aggregate $233.7 million for various foreign currencies, including $111.0 million for euros, $37.1 million for British pounds, $25.2 million for Swiss francs, $17.4 million for Indonesian rupiah, $14.5 million for Australian dollars and $28.5 million for other currencies.
     
Net gains of $900,000 and net losses of $300,000 associated with our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments were included in other, net, in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Net gains of $300,000 and net losses of $4.7 million associated with our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments were included in other, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Note 5 - Earnings Per Share
 
We compute basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") in accordance with the two-class method. Net (loss)income attributable to Ensco used in our computations of basic and diluted EPS is adjusted to exclude net income allocated to non-vested shares granted to our employees and non-employee directors. Weighted-average shares outstanding used in our computation of diluted EPS is calculated using the treasury stock method and excludes non-vested shares.

Note 6 -Impairment

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

During recent periods, a reduction in demand by operators combined with an oversupply of rigs has negatively impacted the floater market. The supply and demand imbalance has significantly challenged drilling contractors to contract older, less capable floaters.

During the second quarter, demand for floaters deteriorated further as a result of the continued reduction in capital spending by operators in addition to recently announced delays in operators’ drilling programs. The further reduction in demand, when combined with the increasing supply from newbuild floater deliveries, has led to a very competitive market. In general, contracting activity for floaters declined significantly and new day rate fixtures were substantially lower than rates realized during the first quarter of 2014 and fourth quarter of 2013. More specifically, drilling contractors have been unable to contract older, less capable rigs as operators are now targeting premium, high-specification rigs at lower day rates. The significant supply and demand imbalance will continue to be adversely impacted by future newbuild deliveries, program delays and lower capital spending by operators. As a result, day rates and utilization will remain under pressure, especially for the older, less capable floaters. In response to the adverse change in the current and anticipated floaters business climate, management evaluated our older, less capable floaters during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 and committed to a plan to sell five rigs. These rigs were written down to fair value, less costs to sell, and classified as "held for sale" on our June 30, 2014 condensed consolidated balance sheet.

We measured the fair value of the "held for sale" rigs by applying a market approach, which was based on unobservable third-party estimated prices that would be received in exchange for the assets in an orderly transaction between market participants. We recorded a pre-tax, non-cash loss on impairment totaling $546.4 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. The impairment charge was included in (loss) income from discontinued

16

operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014. See "Note 8 - Discontinued Operations" for additional information on our "held for sale" rigs.

On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the carrying value of our property and equipment to identify events or changes in circumstances ("triggering events") that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. As a result of the adverse change in the floater business climate observed during the second quarter of 2014, management's commitment to a plan to sell five floaters during the second quarter of 2014 and the impairment charge incurred on the "held for sale" floaters, management concluded that a triggering event had occurred during the second quarter of 2014 and performed an asset impairment analysis on our remaining older, less capable floaters. Based on the analysis performed, we recorded an additional non-cash loss on impairment with respect to four other floaters totaling $991.5 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. The impairment charge was included in loss on impairment in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014. We measured the fair value of these rigs by applying an income approach, using projected discounted cash flows. These valuations were based on unobservable inputs that require significant judgments for which there is limited information, including assumptions regarding future day rates, utilization, operating costs and capital requirements.

Goodwill

Our business consists of three operating segments: (1) Floaters, which includes our drillships and semisubmersible rigs, (2) Jackups and (3) Other, which consists of management services on rigs owned by third-parties. Our two reportable segments, Floaters and Jackups, provide one service, contract drilling.

We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that a potential impairment exists.  Management concluded that the aforementioned adverse change in the current and anticipated floater business climate, the commitment to a plan to sell five floaters and the impairment charge on the "held for sale" floaters triggered the need for an interim impairment test to evaluate the Floaters reporting unit goodwill balance of $3.1 billion as of May 31, 2014.

Based on the valuation performed as of May 31, 2014, the Floaters reporting unit estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value (adjusted for the long-lived impairments noted above) by approximately 7%; therefore, we concluded that the goodwill balance was not impaired.  We estimated the fair value of the Floaters reporting unit using a blended income and market approach.

The income approach was based on a discounted cash flow model, which utilizes present values of cash flows to estimate fair value. The future cash flows were projected based on our estimates of future day rates, utilization, operating costs, capital requirements, growth rates and terminal values for our rigs. Forecasted day rates and utilization take into account current market conditions and our anticipated business outlook, both of which have been impacted by the recent adverse change in the floater business environment. The day rates reflect contracted rates during the respective contracted periods and management's estimate of market day rates in uncontracted periods. The forecasted market day rates were held constant in the near-term and were forecasted to grow in the longer-term and terminal period.

Operating costs were forecasted using our historical average operating costs and were adjusted for an estimated inflation factor. Capital requirements in the discounted cash flow model were based on management's estimates of future capital costs, taking into consideration our historical trends. The estimated capital requirements include cash outflows for new rig construction, rig enhancements and minor upgrades and improvements.

A terminal period was used to reflect our estimate of stable, perpetual growth. The terminal period reflects a terminal growth rate of 3.5%, which includes an estimated inflation factor. The future cash flows were discounted using a market-participant risk-adjusted weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") of 10.5%.

These assumptions were derived from unobservable inputs and reflect management's judgments and assumptions. A decline in the Floaters reporting unit cash flow projections or changes in other key assumptions may

17

result in a goodwill impairment charge in the future. Specifically, keeping all other variables constant, a 50 basis point increase in the WACC applied would reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. In addition, keeping all other variables constant, a 1.5% reduction in the terminal growth rate would reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. Also, keeping all other variables constant, a 5.0% reduction in our forecasted market day rates would reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value.

The market approach was based upon the application of price-to-earnings multiples to management's estimates of future earnings adjusted for a control premium. The price-to-earnings multiples used in the market valuation ranged from 7.5x to 8.5x and were based on competitor market multiples. The fair value determined under the market approach is sensitive to these multiples, and a decline in any of the multiples could reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. Management's earnings estimates were derived from unobservable inputs that require significant estimates, judgments and assumptions as described in the income approach.

The estimated fair value determined under the income approach was consistent with the estimated fair value determined under the market approach. For purposes of the goodwill impairment test, we calculated the Floaters reporting unit estimated fair value as the average of the values calculated under the income approach and the market approach.

We evaluated the estimated fair value of our reporting units compared to our market capitalization as of May 31, 2014. To perform this assessment, we used a market approach to estimate the fair value of the Jackups reporting unit. The aggregated fair values of our reporting units exceeded our market capitalization, and we believe the resulting implied control premium is reasonable based on recent market transactions within our industry or other relevant benchmark data.

The estimates used to determine the fair value of the Floaters reporting unit reflect management's best estimates, and we believe they are reasonable. Future declines in the Floaters reporting unit's operating performance or our anticipated business outlook may reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. Factors that could have a negative impact on the fair value of the Floaters reporting unit include, but are not limited to:

•
decreases in estimated market day rates and utilization due to greater-than-expected market pressures, downtime and other risks associated with offshore rig operations;

•
decreases in revenue due to our inability to attract and retain skilled personnel;

•
changes in worldwide rig supply and demand, competition or technology, including changes as a result of delivery of newbuild drilling rigs;

•
changes in future levels of drilling activity and expenditures, whether as a result of global capital markets and liquidity, prices of oil and natural gas or otherwise, which may cause us to idle or stack additional rigs;

•
possible cancellation or suspension of drilling contracts as a result of mechanical difficulties, performance or other reasons;

•
delays in actual contract commencement dates;

•
the outcome of litigation, legal proceedings, investigations or other claims or contract disputes resulting in significant cash outflows;

•
governmental regulatory, legislative and permitting requirements affecting drilling operations, including limitations on drilling locations (such as the Gulf of Mexico during hurricane season);


18

•
increases in the market-participant risk-adjusted WACC;

•
declines in anticipated growth rates;

•
declines in our market capitalization.

Adverse changes in one or more of these factors could reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value in future periods.

Note 7 -Shareholders' Equity

During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, we granted 900,000 and 1.1 million non-vested share awards, respectively, to our employees, officers and non-employee directors for annual equity awards and for equity awards granted to new or recently promoted employees, pursuant to our 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan. Grants of non-vested share awards generally vest at rates of 20% or 33% per year, as determined by a committee or subcommittee of the Board of Directors at the time of the grant. Our non-vested share awards have dividend rights effective on the date of grant and are measured at fair value using the market value of our shares on the date of grant. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of non-vested share awards granted during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 was $52.47 and $52.51 per share, respectively.

Note 8 -Discontinued Operations
    
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, management committed to a plan to sell five floaters. The ENSCO 5000, ENSCO 5001, ENSCO 5002, ENSCO 6000 and ENSCO 7500 were removed from our portfolio of rigs marketed for contract drilling services and are being actively marketed for sale. These rigs were classified as "held for sale" as of June 30, 2014 and written down to fair value less costs to sell.

We recorded a non-cash loss on impairment totaling $508.8 million, net of tax benefits of $37.6 million, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014.

Note 9 -
Income Taxes
 
Excluding the impact of a $991.5 million loss on impairment and all other discrete income tax expense, our consolidated effective income tax rate for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 was 10.9% as compared to 11.9% for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013. The decrease is primarily attributable to an increase in the relative components of our estimated 2014 earnings, excluding discrete items, generated in tax jurisdictions with lower tax rates.
    
Discrete income tax expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 was primarily attributable to the resolution of prior period tax matters. Discrete income tax expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 was primarily attributable to the recognition of a liability for unrecognized tax benefits associated with certain tax positions taken in prior years and the resolution of prior period tax matters. Discrete income tax expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to the recognition of a liability for unrecognized tax benefits associated with a tax position taken in prior years.
 
Note 10 -Contingencies

ENSCO 29 Wreck Removal

During 2005, a portion of the ENSCO 29 platform drilling rig was lost over the side of a customer's platform as a result of Hurricane Katrina. In June 2014, we received a letter from an operator demanding that Ensco retrieve the derrick and drawworks from the seabed.
Our property insurance policies include coverage for ENSCO 29 wreckage and debris removal costs up to $3.8 million. We also maintain liability insurance policies that provide coverage under certain circumstances for wreckage and debris removal costs in excess of the $3.8 million coverage provided under the property insurance policies. We believe that it is not probable a liability exists with respect to this matter, and no liability has been recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014. While we cannot reasonably estimate a range of

20


possible loss at this time, it is possible that removal costs may be in excess of our insurance coverage. Although we do not expect costs associated with the ENSCO 29 wreck removal to have a material adverse effect upon our financial position, operating results or cash flows, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome.

ENSCO 74 Loss

During 2008, ENSCO 74 was lost as a result of Hurricane Ike in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.  The sunken rig hull of ENSCO 74 was located approximately 95 miles from the original drilling location when it was struck by an oil tanker during 2009.  Wreck removal operations on the sunken rig hull of ENSCO 74 were completed during 2010.
 
We filed a petition for exoneration or limitation of liability under U.S. admiralty and maritime law during 2009. A number of claimants presented claims in the exoneration/limitation proceedings. We have liability insurance policies that provide coverage for such claims as well as removal of wreckage and debris in excess of the property insurance policy sublimit, subject to a $10.0 million per occurrence deductible for third-party claims and an annual aggregate limit of $490.0 million.

The owner of a pipeline filed claims alleging that ENSCO 74 caused the pipeline to rupture during Hurricane Ike and sought damages for the cost of repairs and business interruption in an amount in excess of $26.0 million. During the first quarter of 2014, we reached an agreement with the owner of the pipeline to settle the claims for $9.6 million. Prior to the settlement, we incurred legal fees of $3.6 million for this matter. During the second quarter of 2014, we paid the remaining $6.4 million of our deductible under our liability insurance policy, which was included in accrued liabilities and other on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013. The remaining $3.2 million of settlement proceeds was paid by our underwriters under the terms of the related insurance policies.

The owner of the oil tanker that struck the hull of ENSCO 74 filed claims seeking monetary damages in excess of $5.0 million for losses incurred when the tanker struck the sunken hull of ENSCO 74. This matter went to trial in June 2014, and the Company won a directed verdict regarding all claims. The plaintiff has the right to appeal the decision. We believe that it is not probable that a liability exists with respect to these claims.
 
We believe all liabilities associated with the ENSCO 74 loss during Hurricane Ike resulted from a single occurrence under the terms of the applicable insurance policies. However, legal counsel for certain liability underwriters have asserted that the liability claims arise from separate occurrences. In the event of multiple occurrences, the self-insured retention is $15.0 million for two occurrences and $1.0 million for each occurrence thereafter.

Although we do not expect final disposition of the claims associated with the ENSCO 74 loss to have a material adverse effect upon our financial position, operating results or cash flows, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome.

Asbestos Litigation

We and certain subsidiaries have been named as defendants, along with numerous third-party companies as co-defendants, in multi-party lawsuits filed in Mississippi and Louisiana by approximately 100 plaintiffs. The lawsuits seek an unspecified amount of monetary damages on behalf of individuals alleging personal injury or death, primarily under the Jones Act, purportedly resulting from exposure to asbestos on drilling rigs and associated facilities during the 1960s through the 1980s.

In December 2013, we reached an agreement in principle with 58 of the plaintiffs to settle lawsuits filed in Mississippi for a nominal amount. While we believe the settlement will be approved by the Court, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome.

We intend to vigorously defend against the remaining claims and have filed responsive pleadings preserving all defenses and challenges to jurisdiction and venue. However, discovery is still ongoing and, therefore, available information regarding the nature of all pending claims is limited. At present, we cannot reasonably determine how

21


many of the claimants may have valid claims under the Jones Act or estimate a range of potential liability exposure, if any.
 
In addition to the pending cases in Mississippi and Louisiana, we have other asbestos or lung injury claims pending against us in litigation in other jurisdictions. Although we do not expect final disposition of these asbestos or lung injury lawsuits to have a material adverse effect upon our financial position, operating results or cash flows, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of the lawsuits.

   Other Matters

In addition to the foregoing, we are named defendants or parties in certain other lawsuits, claims or proceedings incidental to our business and are involved from time to time as parties to governmental investigations or proceedings, including matters related to taxation, arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted accurately, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.

In the ordinary course of business with customers and others, we have entered into letters of credit and surety bonds to guarantee our performance as it relates to our drilling contracts, contract bidding, customs duties, tax appeals and other obligations in various jurisdictions. Letters of credit and surety bonds outstanding as of June 30, 2014 totaled $248.4 million and were issued under facilities provided by various banks and other financial institutions. Obligations under these letters of credit and surety bonds are not normally called as we typically comply with the underlying performance requirement. As of June 30, 2014, we had not been required to make collateral deposits with respect to these agreements.

Note 11 -Segment Information
 
Our business consists of three operating segments: (1) Floaters, which includes our drillships and semisubmersible rigs, (2) Jackups and (3) Other, which consists of management services on rigs owned by third-parties. Our two reportable segments, Floaters and Jackups, provide one service, contract drilling.
    
Segment information for the three-month and six-month periods ended 2014 and 2013 is presented below (in millions). General and administrative expense and depreciation expense incurred by our corporate office are not allocated to our operating segments for purposes of measuring segment operating income and were included in "Reconciling Items." We measure segment assets as property and equipment. Prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Concentration of Risk

We are exposed to credit risk relating to our receivables from customers, our cash and cash equivalents, our short-term investments and our use of derivatives in connection with the management of foreign currency exchange rate risk. We mitigate our credit risk relating to receivables from customers, which consist primarily of major international, government-owned and independent oil and gas companies, by performing ongoing credit evaluations. We also maintain reserves for potential credit losses, which generally have been within management's expectations. We mitigate our credit risk relating to cash and cash equivalents by focusing on diversification and quality of instruments. Cash equivalents consist of a portfolio of high-grade instruments. Custody of cash and cash equivalents is maintained at several well-capitalized financial institutions, and we monitor the financial condition of those financial institutions.  

We mitigate our credit risk relating to counterparties of our derivatives through a variety of techniques, including transacting with multiple, high-quality financial institutions, thereby limiting our exposure to individual counterparties and by entering into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements, which include provisions for a legally enforceable master netting agreement, with almost all of our derivative counterparties. The terms of the ISDA agreements may also include credit support requirements, cross default provisions, termination events or set-off provisions.  Legally enforceable master netting agreements reduce credit risk by providing protection in bankruptcy in certain circumstances and generally permitting the closeout and netting of transactions with the same counterparty upon the occurrence of certain events.  See "Note 3 - Derivative Instruments" for additional information on our derivatives.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, Total and Anadarko Petroleum accounted for 11%, and 10% of our consolidated revenues, respectively, all of which were attributable to our Floaters segment. During the same period, BP accounted for 16% of our consolidated revenues, 81% of which were attributable to our Floaters segment. 

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, Total and Anadarko Petroleum accounted 13%, and 10% of our consolidated revenues, respectively, all of which were attributable to our Floaters segment. During the same period, BP accounted for 16% of our consolidated revenues, 80% of which were attributable to our Floaters segment.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, revenues provided by our drilling operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico totaled $476.1 million, or 40%, of our consolidated revenues, of which 76% were provided by our Floaters segment. Revenues provided by our drilling operations in Angola during the three-month period ended June 30,

26


2014 totaled $198.8 million, or 17%, of our consolidated revenues, all of which were provided by our Floaters segment.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, revenues provided by our drilling operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico totaled $896.0 million, or 38%, of our consolidated revenues, of which 75% were provided by our Floaters segment.  Revenues provided by our drilling operations in Angola and Brazil during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 totaled $388.1 million and $245.7 million, or 17% and 11%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues, all of which were provided by our Floaters segment.

Note 13 -Guarantee of Registered Securities

On May 31, 2011, Ensco plc completed a merger transaction (the "Merger") with Pride International Inc. ("Pride"). In connection with the Merger, Ensco plc and Pride entered into a supplemental indenture to the indenture dated as of July 1, 2004 between Pride and the Bank of New York Mellon, as indenture trustee, providing for, among other matters, the full and unconditional guarantee by Ensco plc of Pride’s 8.5% unsecured senior notes due 2019, 6.875% unsecured senior notes due 2020 and 7.875% unsecured senior notes due 2040, which had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2014. The Ensco plc guarantee provides for the unconditional and irrevocable guarantee of the prompt payment, when due, of any amount owed to the holders of the notes.
 
Ensco plc is also a full and unconditional guarantor of the 7.2% debentures due 2027 issued by ENSCO International Incorporated during 1997, which had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $150.0 million as of June 30, 2014.
    
All guarantees are unsecured obligations of Ensco plc ranking equal in right of payment with all of its existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.
   
The following tables present the unaudited condensed consolidating statements of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013; the unaudited condensed consolidating statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013; the condensed consolidating balance sheets as of June 30, 2014 (unaudited) and December 31, 2013; and the unaudited condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, in accordance with Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
    
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2014 and for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 included elsewhere herein and with our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our annual report. See “Forward-Looking Statements.”

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Ensco owns the world's second largest offshore drilling rig fleet amongst competitive rigs. We operate one of the newest ultra-deepwater fleets in the industry, and our premium jackup fleet is the largest of any offshore drilling company. We currently own and operate an offshore drilling rig fleet of 75 rigs, including seven rigs under construction, spanning most of the strategic markets around the globe. Our fleet includes ten drillships, thirteen dynamically positioned semisubmersible rigs, six moored semisubmersible rigs and 46 jackup rigs.

Brent crude oil prices averaged approximately $110 per barrel during the second quarter of 2014, and we believe current prices support operator drilling programs in the floater and jackup markets. Despite the attractive commodity prices, a reduction in capital spending by operators, combined with increasing rig supply, negatively impacted floater day rates and utilization during the second quarter of 2014.

We remain focused on our long-established strategy of high-grading and expanding the size of our fleet where we identify long-term growth opportunities. In response to customer demand for our differentiated rig technology and contract drilling services in the Middle East, we entered into an agreement with Lamprell to construct two premium jackup rigs (ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141) during the second quarter of 2014. These rigs are scheduled for delivery during the second quarter and third quarter of 2016, respectively. In July 2014, we accepted delivery of ENSCO 122, an ultra-premium harsh environment rig that is expected to be placed into service later this year. Currently, we have seven rigs under construction, including three ultra-deepwater drillships, three premium jackup rigs and one ultra-premium harsh environment jackup rig. In addition to ENSCO 122, our next two deliveries, ENSCO DS-8 and ENSCO DS-9, are contracted. Five of our older, less capable floater rigs are currently being marketed for sale as part of our fleet high-grading strategy.

A significant portion of our projected cash flow will continue to be invested in the expansion and enhancement of our fleet of drilling rigs. We also intend to continue paying quarterly dividends for the foreseeable future. However, our Board of Directors may change the timing and payment amount depending on several factors including our profitability, liquidity, financial condition, reinvestment opportunities and capital requirements. We believe our strong balance sheet, $10.7 billion of contract backlog and $2.0 billion of borrowing capacity under our commercial paper program and revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2014 will provide flexibility to make additional investments in our fleet and sustain an adequate level of liquidity during the remainder of 2014 and beyond.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
 
Floaters

The global contracting environment grew increasingly competitive during the second quarter of 2014, particularly for older, less capable floaters. A reduction in capital spending by operators, as well as increasing supply from newbuild floaters, has negatively impacted utilization and day rates. Operators have taken advantage of these lower rates by contracting premium and high-specification rigs. Drilling contractors are currently challenged to contract older, less capable floaters, although retirements of these rigs could alleviate some of this pressure. We anticipate that the floater environment will remain competitive; however, we do expect additional contracting opportunities to be available in several regions, particularly for premium rigs.

40



Rig supply in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico is expected to increase during the remainder of 2014 as multiple newbuild rigs mobilize to the region. Although the majority of these rigs are contracted, utilization and day rates for existing floaters in the region may be negatively impacted, causing some of these rigs to mobilize to other regions. We expect tendering activity to remain relatively low in the near term, though ongoing exploration activity could lead to incremental opportunities over time. In Mexico, ongoing energy reform could create opportunities in the region going forward.
 
We believe there will be incremental demand in Brazil as customers come to the market for rigs to drill their new exploration acreage awarded in licensing rounds held during 2013. Petrobras has an open market inquiry, and we expect incremental opportunities during the remainder of 2014 and 2015 related to pre-salt development in the region.

In West Africa, customer demand remains strong. Currently, there are multiple open tenders for rigs with multi-year terms. Incremental opportunities are expected in Angola, Ghana, and Nigeria. Several operators have exploration programs planned in East Africa and South Africa, and the new discoveries in East Africa could result in significant development programs over time.

Supply and demand in the North Sea market are balanced. We expect additional drilling opportunities in the Mediterranean market, with formal tender programs likely during the remainder 2014 and into 2015. In Asia Pacific, we anticipate incremental requirements in Australia, Indonesia, Myanmar, South Korea and Vietnam.

The worldwide supply of floaters continues to increase as a result of newbuild construction programs. Currently, there are 84 newbuild drillships and semisubmersible rigs reported to be under construction, of which approximately 38 are without contracts. We estimate that fourteen rigs will be delivered before the end of 2014, the majority of which are uncontracted. Utilization and day rates will likely continue to be negatively impacted, particularly for less capable floaters.
 
Jackups

Demand for jackups remains strong, generally supporting current day rates and contract terms. However, newbuild deliveries have begun to put some downward pressure on new contracting activity in certain regions. Utilization and day rates may come under additional pressure as more newbuild rigs enter the market; however, retirements of older jackups could partially offset new supply as the majority of the global jackup fleet is more than 30 years old.
Demand is steady in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. We expect the jackup market to remain largely in balance; however, recent contract terms have declined in duration, which has put pressure on day rates and utilization. In Mexico, we believe there will be incremental demand as the national oil company of Mexico, Petróleos Mexicanos ("PEMEX"), continues to expand its rig fleet.

The Middle East market is expected to remain strong, and we believe there will be incremental demand from operators in the region as well as opportunities to extend existing contracts. In West Africa, there are currently open tenders for incremental rigs for multi-year terms, though recent contracting activity has resulted in some downward pressure on day rates.

We expect the North Sea market to remain balanced. Significant contracted backlog exists for 2014, and operators are issuing tenders to secure rigs for work in 2015 and beyond.

The Asia Pacific market remains balanced, though recent contracting activity indicates an increasingly competitive environment. We expect further pressure on utilization and day rates as multiple uncontracted newbuild rigs are expected to become available during the remainder of 2014 and into 2015. Drilling contractors may seek opportunities to move rigs out of the region. Incremental requirements are expected in Australia, China, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, which could help absorb the incremental newbuilds added to the Asia Pacific fleet.


41


Worldwide jackup supply continues to increase as a result of newbuild construction programs. Currently, there are approximately 132 newbuild jackup rigs reported to be under construction, approximately half of which are being built by companies that have not historically operated offshore drilling rigs. Approximately sixteen rigs are scheduled for delivery during the remainder of 2014, the majority of which are not contracted. While customer demand remains positive, utilization and day rates in certain regions may come under additional pressure in the near term, depending upon the rate at which older jackups are retired.

Revenues increased $72.7 million, or 6%, and contract drilling expense increased $48.8 million, or 9%, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the prior year quarter. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, revenues increased $162.3 million, or 7%, and contract drilling expense increased $121.6 million, or 12%, as compared to the prior year period. The increase in revenues for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to the addition of newbuild rigs to both our Floaters and Jackups segments and an increase in average day rates, partially offset by a decline in utilization. The increase in contract drilling expense for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 was due to the aforementioned additions to our fleet, as well as higher personnel and repair and maintenance costs. The decline in operating income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 was attributable to the loss on impairment recognized on older, less capable rigs in our Floaters segment. See below for additional information on our results by segment.
 
A significant number of our drilling contracts are of a long-term nature. Accordingly, an increase or decline in demand for contract drilling services generally affects our operating results and cash flows gradually over future quarters as long-term contracts expire and new contracts and/or options are priced at current market rates.

During the second half of 2013, we accepted delivery of one ultra-deepwater drillship (ENSCO DS-7) and two ultra-premium harsh environment jackup rigs (ENSCO 120 and ENSCO 121). ENSCO DS-7 commenced a long-term contract during the fourth quarter of 2013, ENSCO 120 commenced drilling operations under a long-term contract during the first quarter of 2014 and ENSCO 121 commenced drilling operations under a long-term contract during the second quarter of 2014.

In July 2014, we accepted delivery of the ENSCO 122, which is committed under a long-term drilling contract.

The five floaters classified as "held for sale" as of June 30, 2014 are included in the table above.

We sold jackup rigs ENSCO 69 and Pride Wisconsin during the first quarter of 2014 and ENSCO 85 during the second quarter of 2014.

(3) 
During the fourth quarter of 2013, we entered into an agreement with Keppel FELS Limited ("KFELS") to construct one ultra-premium harsh environment jackup rig (ENSCO 123). This rig is scheduled for delivery during the second quarter of 2016 and is currently uncontracted.

During the second quarter of 2014, we entered into an agreement with Lamprell plc to construct two premium jackup rigs (ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141), which are scheduled for delivery during the second quarter and third quarter of 2016, respectively. Both of these rigs remain uncontracted.

Rig utilization is derived by dividing the number of days under contract by the number of days in the period. Days under contract equals the total number of days that rigs have earned and recognized day rate revenue, including days associated with compensated downtime and mobilizations. When revenue is earned but is

43


deferred and amortized over a future period, for example when a rig earns revenue while mobilizing to commence a new contract or while being upgraded in a shipyard, the related days are excluded from days under contract.

For newly-constructed or acquired rigs, the number of days in the period begins upon commencement of drilling operations for rigs with a contract or when the rig becomes available for drilling operations for rigs without a contract.

(2) 
Average day rates are derived by dividing contract drilling revenues, adjusted to exclude certain types of non-recurring reimbursable revenues, lump sum revenues and revenues attributable to amortization of drilling contract intangibles, by the aggregate number of contract days, adjusted to exclude contract days associated with certain mobilizations, demobilizations, shipyard contracts and standby contracts. 

Detailed explanations of our operating results, including discussions of revenues, contract drilling expense and depreciation expense by segment, are provided below.

Operating Income
 
Our business consists of three operating segments: (1) Floaters, which includes our drillships and semisubmersible rigs, (2) Jackups and (3) Other, which currently consists of management services on rigs owned by third-parties. Our two reportable segments, Floaters and Jackups, provide one service, contract drilling.
Segment information is presented below (in millions).  General and administrative expense and depreciation expense incurred by our corporate office are not allocated to our operating segments for purposes of measuring segment operating income and were included in "Reconciling Items." Prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Floaters

Floater revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased slightly compared to the prior year quarter. ENSCO DS-7 commenced its initial drilling contract during the fourth quarter of 2013 and average day rates improved across our Floater fleet. Floater utilization declined primarily due to ENSCO 5004 and ENSCO 5006 which were in the shipyard for capital enhancement projects during 2014.

Floater contract drilling expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased by $27.7 million, or 9%, as compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the addition of DS-7 to our Floater fleet. Higher personnel and repair and maintenance costs also contributed to the increase in contract drilling expense. These increases were partially offset by lower contract drilling expense for ENSCO 5004 and ENSCO 5006.

We recognized a loss on impairment of $991.5 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 related to four older, less capable floaters due to adverse change in the current and anticipated market for these rigs. No impairments were recorded during the prior year quarter.

Depreciation expense was comparable to the prior year quarter. The increase in depreciation due to the addition of DS-7 to the fleet was largely offset by lower depreciation expense as a result of the aforementioned impairments, which were recorded as of May 31, 2014.

Floater revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased by $68.6 million, or 5%, as compared to the prior year period. The increase in revenues was primarily due to commencement of ENSCO 8506 and ENSCO DS-6 drilling operations during the first quarter of 2013 and commencement of the ENSCO DS-7 drilling contract during the fourth quarter of 2013. To a lesser extent, the increase in revenues was attributable to an increase in average day rates for various rigs in our Floater fleet. These increases were partially offset by a decline in utilization attributable to multiple rigs in our Floater fleet. ENSCO 5004 and ENSCO 5006 were in the shipyard for capital enhancement projects during 2014, and ENSCO 8503 incurred several months of uncontracted downtime between January 2014

45


and April 2014. Utilization in the prior year period was negatively impacted by downtime prompted by a vendor notice regarding inspection and replacement of connector bolts on various rigs.

Floater contract drilling expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased by $83.2 million, or 15%, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the aforementioned additions to our Floater fleet. To a lesser extent, higher personnel and repair and maintenance costs also contributed to the increase in contract drilling expense. These increases were partially offset by lower contract drilling expense for the ENSCO 5004 and ENSCO 5006.

We recognized a loss on impairment of $991.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 related to four older, less capable floaters due to the adverse change in the current and anticipated market for these assets. No impairments were recorded during the prior year period.

Depreciation expense increased by $10.2 million, or 6%, primarily due to the aforementioned additions to our Floater fleet, and was partially offset by a lower depreciation charge as a result of the aforementioned impairments.

Jackups

Jackup revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased by $72.8 million, or 19%, as compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in revenues was primarily due to an increase in average day rates across our Jackup fleet and the commencement of the ENSCO 120 and ENSCO 121 drilling contracts during the first quarter and second quarter of 2014, respectively.
Jackup contract drilling expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased $25.4 million, or 12%, as compared to the respective prior year quarter, primarily due to the aforementioned additions to our Jackup fleet and an increase in personnel and repair and maintenance costs. Depreciation expense increased by $5.4 million, or 14%, primarily due to the additions to our fleet.
  
Jackup revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased by $101.1 million, or 13%, as compared to the respective prior year period. The increase in revenues was primarily due to an increase in average day rates across our Jackup fleet and the commencement of the ENSCO 120 and ENSCO 121 drilling contracts during the first quarter and second quarter of 2014, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a decline in utilization attributable to an increase in planned shipyard activity for certain rigs in the Jackup fleet.

Jackup contract drilling expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 increased $47.1 million, or 12%, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the aforementioned additions to our Jackup fleet and an increase in personnel and repair and maintenance costs. Depreciation expense increased by $7.7 million, or 10%, primarily due to the additions to our fleet.

Interest income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 declined as compared to the respective prior year periods primarily due to declining outstanding principal amounts due from customers for reimbursement of mobilization and upgrade costs on certain long-term drilling contracts. Interest expense was comparable over the same periods as the outstanding principal balances associated with our long-term debt instruments remained consistent. Interest expense capitalized during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 increased as compared to the prior year periods due to an increase in the average outstanding amount of capital invested in newbuild construction.

Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar, and a portion of the revenues earned and expenses incurred by certain of our subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar ("foreign currencies"). These transactions are remeasured in U.S. dollars based on a combination of both current and historical exchange rates. Net foreign currency exchange gains of $100,000 and $1.6 million were included in other, net for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Net unrealized gains of $1.2 million and $1.5 million from marketable securities held in our SERP were included in other, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The fair value measurement of our marketable securities held in the SERP is discussed in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other, net for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 included net foreign currency exchange loss of $300,000 and net foreign currency exchange gains of $4.8 million, respectively. The $4.8 million net foreign currency exchange gains for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 were primarily attributable to the devaluation of the Venezuelan Bolivar.

Provision for Income Taxes
 
Ensco plc, our parent company, is domiciled and resident in the U.K. Our subsidiaries conduct operations and earn income in numerous countries and are subject to the laws of taxing jurisdictions within those countries. The income of our non-U.K. subsidiaries is not subject to U.K. taxation. Income tax rates imposed in the tax jurisdictions in which our subsidiaries conduct operations vary, as does the tax base to which the rates are applied. In some cases, tax rates may be applicable to gross revenues, statutory or negotiated deemed profits or other bases utilized under local tax laws, rather than to net income. Our drilling rigs frequently move from one taxing jurisdiction to another to perform contract drilling services. In some instances, the movement of drilling rigs among taxing jurisdictions will involve the transfer of ownership of the drilling rigs among our subsidiaries. As a result of frequent changes in the taxing jurisdictions in which our drilling rigs are operated and/or owned, changes in the overall level of our income and changes in tax laws, our consolidated effective income tax rate may vary substantially from one reporting period to another.

47


Income tax expense for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $48.0 million and $48.5 million, respectively. Income tax expense for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $100.9 million and $99.3 million, respectively.

Excluding the impact of a $991.5 million loss on impairment and all other discrete income tax expense, our consolidated effective income tax rate for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 was 10.9%, as compared to 11.9% for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013. The decrease is primarily attributable to an increase in the relative components of our estimated 2014 earnings, excluding discrete items, generated in tax jurisdictions with lower tax rates.

In July 2014, the U.K. government enacted tax legislation that will increase the income taxes associated with our U.K. drilling operations. As a result of the tax legislation, which requires retrospective application to April 1, 2014, we expect our income tax expense for the six-month period ending December 31, 2014 to increase by approximately $25 million.

Discontinued Operations

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, management committed to a plan to sell five floaters. The ENSCO 5000, ENSCO 5001, ENSCO 5002, ENSCO 6000 and ENSCO 7500 were removed from our portfolio of rigs marketed for contract drilling services and are being actively marketed for sale. These rigs were classified as "held for sale" as of June 30, 2014 and written down to fair value less costs to sell.

We recorded a non-cash loss on impairment totaling $508.8 million, net of tax benefits of $37.6 million, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. The impairment charge was included in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014. The operating results from these rigs were included in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

In connection with the sale of the ENSCO 7500, we will be required to pay the outstanding principal on the 6.36% MARAD bonds due 2015, which are collateralized by this rig. The outstanding principal balance on this bond is $19.0 million as of June 30, 2014, of which $12.7 million is included in current maturities of long term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, we sold jackup rig ENSCO 85 for net proceeds of $64.4 million. The rig was classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2014. The proceeds from the sale were included in investing activities of discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. We recognized a gain of $2.3 million in connection with the disposal, which was included in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014. ENSCO 85 operating results were included in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, we sold jackup rigs ENSCO 69 and Wisconsin for net proceeds of $32.2 million. These rigs were classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2013. The proceeds from the sale were received in December 2013 and included in net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations in our consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2013 in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, in connection with the potential sale of multiple rigs in our fleet mentioned above, ENSCO 69 and Wisconsin operating results were reclassified to (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. We recognized a gain of $17.9 million in connection with the disposal, which was also reclassified to (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014.

48



During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, we sold jackup rig Pride Pennsylvania for net proceeds of $15.5 million. The rig was classified as held for sale and included in discontinued operations during 2012 in connection with the sale of multiple rigs in our fleet. The proceeds from the sale were included in investing activities of discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. We recognized a loss of $1.1 million in connection with the disposal, which was included in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. Pride Pennsylvania operating results were included in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month period ended June 30, 2013.
    
    
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Although our business is cyclical, we have historically relied on our cash flow from continuing operations to meet liquidity needs and fund the majority of our cash requirements. We have maintained a strong financial position through the disciplined and conservative use of debt, which has provided us the ability to achieve future growth potential through acquisitions and newbuild rig construction. A substantial portion of our cash flow has been invested in the expansion and enhancement of our fleet of drilling rigs, through newbuild construction and upgrade projects, and the return of capital to shareholders through dividend payments.

A significant portion of our projected cash flow will continue to be invested in the expansion and enhancement of our fleet of drilling rigs. We also intend to continue paying quarterly dividends for the foreseeable future. However, our Board of Directors may change the timing and payment amount depending on several factors including our profitability, liquidity, financial condition, reinvestment opportunities and capital requirements. Based on our balance sheet and contractual backlog of $10.7 billion as of June 30, 2014, we believe future capital projects, debt service and dividend payments will primarily be funded from future operating cash flows and borrowings under our commercial paper program and/or revolving credit facility. We may decide to access debt and/or equity markets to raise additional capital or increase liquidity as necessary.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, our primary source of cash was $989.3 million generated from operating activities of continuing operations. Our primary use of cash for the same period was $631.8 million for the construction, enhancement and other improvement of our drilling rigs and $351.2 million for dividend payments.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, our primary source of cash was $731.3 million generated from operating activities of continuing operations and $50.0 million in proceeds from the maturity of short-term investments. Our primary use of cash for the same period was $591.4 million for the construction, enhancement and other improvement of our drilling rigs and $233.3 million for dividend payments.

Cash flow from operating activities of continuing operations increased $258.0 million, or 35%, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the prior year period. The increase primarily resulted from a $330.7 million increase in cash receipts from contract drilling services and a $33.4 million decrease in cash payments for income taxes, partially offset by a $151.1 million increase in cash payments related to contract drilling expenses.

We remain focused on our long-established strategy of high-grading and expanding the size of our fleet where we identify long-term growth opportunities. In response to customer demand for our differentiated rig technology and contract drilling services in the Middle East, we entered into an agreement with Lamprell to construct two premium jackup rigs (ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141) during the second quarter of 2014. ENSCO 140 and ENSCO 141 will incorporate Ensco's patented Canti-Leverage AdvantageSM technology and are significantly enhanced versions of the LeTorneau Super 116E jackup design. These rigs are scheduled for delivery during the second quarter and the third quarter of 2016, respectively.

During 2013, we entered into agreements with KFELS to construct a premium jackup rig (ENSCO 110) and an ultra-premium harsh environment jackup rig (ENSCO 123). These rigs are scheduled for delivery during the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2016, respectively. Both of these rigs are currently uncontracted.

We previously entered into agreements with KFELS to construct three ultra-premium harsh environment jackup rigs (ENSCO 120, ENSCO 121 and ENSCO 122). ENSCO 122 was delivered in July 2014 and is committed under a long-term drilling contract expected to commence during the fourth quarter of 2014. ENSCO 121 was delivered during the fourth quarter of 2013 and commenced drilling operations under a long-term contract in the North Sea during the second quarter of 2014. ENSCO 120 was delivered during the third quarter of 2013 and commenced drilling operations under a long-term contract in the North Sea during the first quarter of 2014.

We currently have three ultra-deepwater drillships (ENSCO DS-8, ENSCO DS-9 and ENSCO DS-10) under construction. ENSCO DS-8 and ENSCO DS-9 are committed under long-term contracts and currently scheduled for delivery during the first quarter of 2015. ENSCO DS-10 is currently uncontracted and scheduled for delivery during the third quarter of 2015.

A significant portion of our projected cash flow will continue to be invested in the expansion and enhancement of our fleet of drilling rigs. We also intend to continue paying quarterly dividends for the foreseeable future. However, our Board of Directors may change the timing and payment amount depending on several factors including our profitability, liquidity, financial condition, reinvestment opportunities and capital requirements. We believe our strong balance sheet, $10.7 billion of contract backlog and $2.0 billion of borrowing capacity under our commercial paper program and revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2014 provide flexibility to make additional investments in our fleet and sustain an adequate level of liquidity during 2014 and beyond.
 
The following table summarizes the cumulative amount of contractual payments made as of June 30, 2014 for our rigs under construction and estimated timing of our remaining contractual payments (in millions):

(1) 
Cumulative paid represents the aggregate amount of contractual payments made from commencement of the construction agreement through June 30, 2014.

(2) 
Total commitments are based on fixed-price shipyard construction contracts, exclusive of costs associated with commissioning, systems integration testing, project management and capitalized interest.

Future contractual payments for rig enhancement projects, which are not reflected in the table above, are $118.2 million. We currently estimate these payments will be made during the next 12 months.

The actual timing of these expenditures may vary based on the completion of various construction milestones, which are, to a large extent, beyond our control.

Based on our current projections, we expect capital expenditures during 2014 to include approximately $800 million for newbuild construction, approximately $570 million for rig enhancement projects and approximately $330 million for minor upgrades and improvements. Depending on market conditions and future opportunities, we may make additional capital expenditures to upgrade rigs for customer requirements and construct or acquire additional rigs.

 Senior Notes and Debentures

As of June 30, 2014, we had outstanding $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured 3.25% senior notes due 2016, $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 8.5% senior notes due 2019, $900.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 6.875% senior notes due 2020, $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured 4.7% senior notes due 2021 and $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.875% senior notes due 2040. As of June 30, 2014, we also had outstanding $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 7.2% debentures due 2027. We make semiannual interest payments on each of the aforementioned notes and debentures.

Revolving Credit

We have a $2.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of banks to be used for general corporate purposes with a five-year term expiring on May 7, 2018. Advances under the credit facility bear interest at Base Rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin rate (currently 0.125% per annum for Base Rate advances and 1.125% per annum for LIBOR advances) depending on our credit rating. Amounts repaid may be re-borrowed during the term. We are required to pay a quarterly undrawn facility fee (currently 0.125% per annum) on the total $2.0 billion commitment, which is also based on our credit rating. In addition to other customary restrictive covenants, the credit facility requires us to maintain a total debt to total capitalization ratio less than or equal to 50%. We have the right, subject to lender consent, to increase the commitments under the credit facility to an aggregate amount of up to $2.5 billion. We had no amounts outstanding under the credit facility as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Commercial Paper
 
We participate in a commercial paper program with four commercial paper dealers pursuant to which we may issue, on a private placement basis, unsecured commercial paper notes. In June 2014, we increased the size of our program to permit the issuance of commercial paper notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2.0 billion at any time outstanding. Amounts issued under the commercial paper program are supported by the available and unused committed capacity under our credit facility. As a result, amounts issued under the commercial paper program will be limited by the amount of our available and unused committed capacity under our credit facility. The proceeds of such financings will be used for capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes. The commercial paper will bear interest at rates that vary based on market conditions and the ratings assigned by credit rating agencies at the time of issuance. The commercial paper maturities will vary but may not exceed 364 days from the date of issuance. The commercial paper is not redeemable or subject to voluntary prepayment by us prior to maturity. We had no amounts outstanding under our commercial paper program as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
    
Other Financing

As of June 30, 2014, we had $110.9 million outstanding under our Maritime Administration bond issues, $19.0 million of which is due in December 2015. The remaining $91.9 million outstanding is due in 2016 and 2020. We make semiannual principal and interest payments on these bonds.

We filed an automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on January 13, 2012, which provides us the ability to issue debt securities, equity securities, guarantees and/or units of securities in one or more offerings. The registration statement, as amended, expires in January 2015.

During the second quarter of 2013, our shareholders approved a new share repurchase program. Subject to certain provisions under English law, including the requirement of Ensco plc to have sufficient distributable reserves, we may purchase up to a maximum of $2.0 billion in the aggregate under the program, but in no case more than 35.0 million shares. The program terminates in May 2018.

Other Commitments

As of June 30, 2014, we were contingently liable in the aggregate amount of $248.4 million under outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds which guarantee our performance as it relates to our drilling contracts, contract bidding, customs duties, tax appeals and other obligations in various jurisdictions. Obligations under these letters of credit and surety bonds are not normally called, as we typically comply with the underlying performance requirement. As of June 30, 2014, we had not been required to make any collateral deposits with respect to these agreements.

Effects of Climate Change and Climate Change Regulation
 
Greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions have increasingly become the subject of international, national, regional, state and local attention. During 2009, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") officially published its findings that emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other GHGs present an endangerment to human health and the environment because emissions of such gases are, according to the EPA, contributing to warming of the earth's atmosphere and other climatic changes. These EPA findings allowed the agency to proceed with the adoption and implementation of regulations to restrict GHG emissions under existing provisions of the Clean Air Act that establish Prevention of Significant Deterioration ("PSD") construction and Title V operating permit reviews for certain large stationary sources that are potential major sources of GHG emissions. The EPA set the current regulatory GHG emissions thresholds in its "Tailoring Rule", and has indicated that it may revise this Rule's thresholds downward in a subsequent rule, which would likely subject additional stationary sources to GHG permitting requirements. Facilities required to obtain PSD permits for their GHG emissions also will be required to meet "best available control technology" standards to be established by the states or, in some cases, the EPA, on a case-by-case basis. The EPA has also adopted rules requiring annual monitoring and reporting of GHG emissions from specified sources in the United States, including, among others, certain onshore and offshore oil and natural gas production facilities.

In recent years, cap and trade initiatives to limit GHG emissions have been introduced in the European Union. Similarly, a number of bills related to climate change have been introduced in the U.S. Congress. If these or similar bills were to be adopted, such legislation could adversely impact many industries. However, it appears unlikely that comprehensive federal climate legislation will be passed by the U.S. Congress in the foreseeable future. In the absence of federal legislation, almost half of the states have begun to address GHG emissions, primarily through the development or planned development of emission inventories or regional GHG cap and trade programs. Future regulation of GHG emissions could occur pursuant to future treaty obligations, statutory or regulatory changes or new climate change legislation in the jurisdictions in which we operate. If the U.S. Congress undertakes comprehensive tax reform in the coming year, it is possible that such reform may include a carbon tax, which could impose additional direct costs on operations and reduce demand for refined products. Depending on the particular program, we, or our customers, could be required to control GHG emissions or to purchase and surrender allowances for GHG emissions resulting from our operations. It is uncertain whether any of these initiatives will be implemented. If such initiatives are implemented, we do not believe that such initiatives would have a direct, material adverse effect on our financial condition, operating results or cash flows in a manner different than our competitors.

Restrictions on GHG emissions or other related legislative or regulatory enactments could have an indirect effect in those industries that use significant amounts of petroleum products, which could potentially result in a reduction in demand for petroleum products and, consequently, our offshore contract drilling services. We are currently unable to predict the manner or extent of any such effect. Furthermore, one of the long-term physical effects of climate change may be an increase in the severity and frequency of adverse weather conditions, such as hurricanes, which may increase our insurance costs or risk retention, limit insurance availability or reduce the areas in which, or the number of days during which, our customers would contract for our drilling rigs in general and in the Gulf of Mexico in particular. We are currently unable to predict the manner or extent of any such effect.

Capital Reorganization

During the second quarter of 2014, we completed a capital reorganization under UK law (the “Capital Reorganization”), which will provide the Company with greater flexibility going forward to return capital to

53


shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases. The Capital Reorganization, which was authorized by our Board of Directors and approved by our shareholders at the Annual General Meeting in May 2014, was achieved through the issuance and subsequent cancellation of $3.0 billion of a newly created class of shares (the “Capital Reorganization Shares”).
The Capital Reorganization Shares had no substantive economic or voting rights and were issued to a subsidiary of the Company on June 17, 2014 for the benefit of existing shareholders solely for the purpose of the Capital Reorganization transaction. Upon cancellation of the shares on June 18, 2014, $3.0 billion of the shareholders' equity of Ensco plc that was previously deemed non-distributable under UK law, can now be included in the determination of eligible distributable reserves.
The Capital Reorganization did not involve any distribution or repayment of capital, nor did it have an impact on the underlying net assets of the Company. There was no net impact on our shareholders’ equity for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 (or any period) as a result of the Capital Reorganization.


MARKET RISK
 
We use derivatives to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. As is customary in the oil and gas industry, a majority of our revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars; however, a portion of the revenues earned and expenses incurred by certain of our subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We maintain a foreign currency exchange rate risk management strategy that utilizes derivatives to reduce our exposure to unanticipated fluctuations in earnings and cash flows caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  

We utilize cash flow hedges to hedge forecasted foreign currency denominated transactions, primarily to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk on future expected contract drilling expenses and capital expenditures denominated in various foreign currencies. We predominantly structure our drilling contracts in U.S. dollars, which significantly reduces the portion of our cash flows and assets denominated in foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2014, we had cash flow hedges outstanding to exchange an aggregate $372.2 million for various foreign currencies.

54


We have net assets and liabilities denominated in numerous foreign currencies and use various strategies to manage our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We occasionally enter into derivatives that hedge the fair value of recognized foreign currency denominated assets or liabilities, thereby reducing exposure to earnings fluctuations caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not designate such derivatives as hedging instruments. In these situations, a natural hedging relationship generally exists whereby changes in the fair value of the derivatives offset changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged items. As of June 30, 2014, we held derivatives not designated as hedging instruments to exchange an aggregate $233.7 million for various foreign currencies.
If we were to incur a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates, net unrealized losses associated with our foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2014 would approximate $26.4 million. Approximately $20.0 million of these unrealized losses would be offset by corresponding gains on the derivatives utilized to offset changes in the fair value of net assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.
We utilize derivatives and undertake foreign currency exchange rate hedging activities in accordance with our established policies for the management of market risk. We mitigate our credit risk relating to counterparties of our derivatives through a variety of techniques, including transacting with multiple, high-quality financial institutions, thereby limiting our exposure to individual counterparties and by entering into ISDA Master Agreements, which include provisions for a legally enforceable master netting agreement, with almost all of our derivative counterparties. The terms of the ISDA agreements may also include credit support requirements, cross default provisions, termination events, or set-off provisions. Legally enforceable master netting agreements reduce credit risk by providing protection in bankruptcy in certain circumstances and generally permitting the closeout and netting of transactions with the same counterparty upon the occurrence of certain events.

We do not enter into derivatives for trading or other speculative purposes. We believe that our use of derivatives and related hedging activities reduces our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk and does not expose us to material credit risk or any other material market risk. All of our derivatives mature during the next 18 months. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on our derivative instruments.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires our management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our significant accounting policies are included in Note 1 to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2014. These policies, along with our underlying judgments and assumptions made in their application, have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We identify our critical accounting policies as those that are the most pervasive and important to the portrayal of our financial position and operating results and that require the most difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments by management regarding estimates in matters that are inherently uncertain. Our critical accounting policies are those related to property and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill and income taxes. For a discussion of the critical accounting policies and estimates that we use in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, see "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" in Part II of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Other than set forth below, there have been no material changes from the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as updated in our subsequent quarterly reports.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill

During recent periods, a reduction in demand by operators combined with an oversupply of rigs has negatively impacted the floater market. The supply and demand imbalance has significantly challenged drilling contractors to contract older, less capable floaters.

During the second quarter, demand for floaters deteriorated further as a result of the continued reduction in capital spending by operators in addition to recently announced delays in operators’ drilling programs. The further reduction in demand, when combined with the increasing supply from newbuild floater deliveries, has led to a very competitive market. In general, contracting activity for floaters declined significantly and new day rate fixtures were substantially lower than rates realized during the first quarter of 2014 and fourth quarter of 2013. More specifically, drilling contractors have been unable to contract older, less capable rigs as operators are now targeting premium, high-specification rigs at lower day rates. The significant supply and demand imbalance will continue to be adversely impacted by future newbuild deliveries, program delays and lower capital spending by operators. As a result, day rates and utilization will remain under pressure, especially for the older, less capable floaters. In response to the adverse change in the current and anticipated floaters business climate, management evaluated our older, less capable floaters during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 and committed to a plan to sell five rigs. These rigs were written

55


down to fair value, less costs to sell, and classified as "held for sale" on our June 30, 2014 condensed consolidated balance sheet.

We measured the fair value of the "held for sale" rigs by applying a market approach, which was based on unobservable third-party estimated prices that would be received in exchange for the assets in an orderly transaction between market participants. We recorded a pre-tax, non-cash loss on impairment totaling $546.4 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. The impairment charge was included in (loss) income from discontinued operations, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014. See "Note 8 - Discontinued Operations" for additional information on our "held for sale" rigs.

On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the carrying value of our property and equipment to identify events or changes in circumstances ("triggering events") that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. As a result of the adverse change in the floater business climate observed during the second quarter of 2014, management's commitment to a plan to sell five floaters during the second quarter of 2014 and the impairment charge incurred on the "held for sale" floaters, management concluded that a triggering event had occurred during the second quarter of 2014 and performed an asset impairment analysis on our remaining older, less capable floaters. Based on the analysis performed, we recorded an additional non-cash loss on impairment with respect to four other floaters totaling $991.5 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. The impairment charge was included in loss on impairment in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014. We measured the fair value of these rigs by applying an income approach, using projected discounted cash flows. These valuations were based on unobservable inputs that require significant judgments for which there is limited information, including assumptions regarding future day rates, utilization, operating costs and capital requirements.

Our business consists of three operating segments: (1) Floaters, which includes our drillships and semisubmersible rigs, (2) Jackups and (3) Other, which consists of management services on rigs owned by third-parties. Our two reportable segments, Floaters and Jackups, provide one service, contract drilling.

We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that a potential impairment exists.  Management concluded that the aforementioned adverse change in the current and anticipated floater business climate, the commitment to a plan to sell five floaters and the impairment charge on the "held for sale" floaters triggered the need for an interim impairment test to evaluate the Floaters reporting unit goodwill balance of $3.1 billion as of May 31, 2014.

Based on the valuation performed as of May 31, 2014, the Floaters reporting unit estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value (adjusted for the long-lived impairments noted above) by approximately 7%; therefore, we concluded that the goodwill balance was not impaired.  We estimated the fair value of the Floaters reporting unit using a blended income and market approach.

The income approach was based on a discounted cash flow model, which utilizes present values of cash flows to estimate fair value. The future cash flows were projected based on our estimates of future day rates, utilization, operating costs, capital requirements, growth rates and terminal values for our rigs. Forecasted day rates and utilization take into account current market conditions and our anticipated business outlook, both of which have been impacted by the recent adverse change in the floater business environment. The day rates reflect contracted rates during the respective contracted periods and management's estimate of market day rates in uncontracted periods. The forecasted market day rates were held constant in the near-term and were forecasted to grow in the longer-term and terminal period.

Operating costs were forecasted using our historical average operating costs and were adjusted for an estimated inflation factor. Capital requirements in the discounted cash flow model were based on management's estimates of future capital costs, taking into consideration our historical trends. The estimated capital requirements include cash outflows for new rig construction, rig enhancements and minor upgrades and improvements.


56


A terminal period was used to reflect our estimate of stable, perpetual growth. The terminal period reflects a terminal growth rate of 3.5%, which includes an estimated inflation factor. The future cash flows were discounted using a market-participant risk-adjusted weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") of 10.5%.

These assumptions were derived from unobservable inputs and reflect management's judgments and assumptions. A decline in the Floaters reporting unit cash flow projections or changes in other key assumptions may result in a goodwill impairment charge in the future. Specifically, keeping all other variables constant, a 50 basis point increase in the WACC applied would reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. In addition, keeping all other variables constant, a 1.5% reduction in the terminal growth rate would reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. Also, keeping all other variables constant, a 5.0% reduction in our forecasted market day rates would reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value.

The market approach was based upon the application of price-to-earnings multiples to management's estimates of future earnings adjusted for a control premium. The price-to-earnings multiples used in the market valuation ranged from 7.5x to 8.5x and were based on competitor market multiples. The fair value determined under the market approach is sensitive to these multiples, and a decline in any of the multiples could reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. Management's earnings estimates were derived from unobservable inputs that require significant estimates, judgments and assumptions as described in the income approach.

The estimated fair value determined under the income approach was consistent with the estimated fair value determined under the market approach. For purposes of the goodwill impairment test, we calculated the Floaters reporting unit estimated fair value as the average of the values calculated under the income approach and the market approach.

We evaluated the estimated fair value of our reporting units compared to our market capitalization as of May 31, 2014. To perform this assessment, we used a market approach to estimate the fair value of the Jackups reporting unit. The aggregated fair values of our reporting units exceeded our market capitalization, and we believe the resulting implied control premium is reasonable based on recent market transactions within our industry or other relevant benchmark data.

The estimates used to determine the fair value of the Floaters reporting unit reflect management's best estimates, and we believe they are reasonable. Future declines in the Floaters reporting unit's operating performance or our anticipated business outlook may reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value. Factors that could have a negative impact on the fair value of the Floaters reporting unit include, but are not limited to:

•
decreases in estimated market day rates and utilization due to greater-than-expected market pressures, downtime and other risks associated with offshore rig operations;

•
decreases in revenue due to our inability to attract and retain skilled personnel;

•
changes in worldwide rig supply and demand, competition or technology, including changes as a result of delivery of newbuild drilling rigs;

•
changes in future levels of drilling activity and expenditures, whether as a result of global capital markets and liquidity, prices of oil and natural gas or otherwise, which may cause us to idle or stack additional rigs;

•
possible cancellation or suspension of drilling contracts as a result of mechanical difficulties, performance or other reasons;

•
delays in actual contract commencement dates;


57


•
the outcome of litigation, legal proceedings, investigations or other claims or contract disputes resulting in significant cash outflows;

•
governmental regulatory, legislative and permitting requirements affecting drilling operations, including limitations on drilling locations (such as the Gulf of Mexico during hurricane season);

•
increases in the market-participant risk-adjusted WACC;

•
declines in anticipated growth rates;

•
declines in our market capitalization.

Adverse changes in one or more of these factors could reduce the estimated fair value of our Floaters reporting unit below its carrying value in future periods.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity ("Update 2014-08"). The new guidance changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhances disclosure requirements. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Update 2014-08 is effective for annual and interim periods for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and early adoption is permitted for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. We are currently evaluating Update 2014-08 to determine the impact on the presentation of future disposals in our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("Update 2014-09"), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017, and early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-12, Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period ("Update 2014-12"). The new guidance clarifies that entities should treat performance targets that can be met after the requisite service period of a share-based payment award as performance conditions that affect vesting. Update 2014-12 is effective for annual and interim periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. We will adopt the accounting standard on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2016. We do not expect the adoption to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
 
Pride FCPA Investigation

During 2010, Pride and its subsidiaries resolved their previously disclosed investigations into potential violations of the FCPA with the DOJ and the SEC. The settlement with the DOJ included a deferred prosecution agreement (the "DPA") between Pride and the DOJ and a guilty plea by Pride Forasol, S.A.S., one of Pride’s subsidiaries, to FCPA-related charges. In November 2012, the DOJ moved (i) to dismiss the charges against Pride and end the DPA one year prior to its scheduled expiration; and (ii) to terminate the unsupervised probation of Pride Forasol, S.A.S. The Court granted the motions.

     Pride has received preliminary inquiries from governmental authorities of certain countries referenced in its settlements with the DOJ and SEC. We could face additional fines, sanctions and other penalties from authorities in these and other relevant jurisdictions, including prohibition of our participating in or curtailment of business operations in those jurisdictions and the seizure of rigs or other assets. At this early stage of such inquiries, we are unable to determine what, if any, legal liability may result. Our customers in those jurisdictions could seek to impose penalties or take other actions adverse to our business. We could also face other third-party claims by directors, officers, employees, affiliates, advisors, attorneys, agents, stockholders, debt holders, or other interest holders or constituents of our Company. In addition, disclosure of the subject matter of the investigations and settlements could adversely affect our reputation and our ability to obtain new business or retain existing business from our current clients and potential clients, to attract and retain employees and to access the capital markets.

We cannot currently predict what, if any, actions may be taken by any other applicable government or other authorities or our customers or other third parties or the effect any such actions may have on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.

Asbestos Litigation
 
We and certain subsidiaries have been named as defendants, along with numerous third-party companies as co-defendants, in multi-party lawsuits filed in Mississippi and Louisiana by approximately 100 plaintiffs. The lawsuits seek an unspecified amount of monetary damages on behalf of individuals alleging personal injury or death, primarily under the Jones Act, purportedly resulting from exposure to asbestos on drilling rigs and associated facilities during the 1960s through the 1980s.

In December 2013, we reached an agreement in principle with 58 of the plaintiffs to settle lawsuits filed in Mississippi for a nominal amount. While we believe the settlement will be approved by the Court, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome.

We intend to vigorously defend against the remaining claims and have filed responsive pleadings preserving all defenses and challenges to jurisdiction and venue. However, discovery is still ongoing and, therefore, available information regarding the nature of all pending claims is limited. At present, we cannot reasonably determine how many of the claimants may have valid claims under the Jones Act or estimate a range of potential liability exposure, if any.
 
In addition to the pending cases in Mississippi and Louisiana, we have other asbestos or lung injury claims pending against us in litigation in other jurisdictions. Although we do not expect final disposition of these asbestos or lung injury lawsuits to have a material adverse effect upon our financial position, operating results or cash flows, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of the lawsuits.

Environmental Matters

We are currently subject to pending notices of assessment relating to spills of drilling fluids, oil, chemicals, grease or fuel from drilling rigs operating offshore Brazil from 2008 through 2014, pursuant to which the governmental authorities have assessed, or are anticipated to assess, fines in an aggregate amount of approximately $250,000. We have contested these notices and appealed certain adverse decisions and are awaiting decisions in these cases. Although we do not expect final disposition of these assessments to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of these assessments. A $250,000 liability related to these matters was included in accrued liabilities and other on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014.

We currently are subject to a pending administrative proceeding initiated during 2009 by a Spanish government authority seeking payment in an aggregate amount of approximately $4.0 million for an alleged environmental spill originating from ENSCO 5006 while it was operating offshore Spain. Our customer has posted guarantees with the Spanish government to cover potential penalties. Additionally, we expect to be indemnified for any payments resulting from this incident by our customer under the terms of the drilling contract. A criminal investigation of the incident was initiated during 2010 by a prosecutor in Tarragona, Spain, and the administrative proceedings have been suspended pending the outcome of this investigation. We do not know at this time what, if any, involvement we may have in this investigation.
 
We intend to vigorously defend ourselves in the administrative proceeding and any criminal investigation. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of these matters or estimate the extent to which we may be exposed to any resulting liability. Although we do not expect final disposition of this matter to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of the proceedings.

We are currently subject to a notice of assessment received from the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement ("BSEE") in June 2014 relating to an unintended disconnect on the ENSCO 8500, pursuant to which BSEE has assessed a fine in the amount of $330,000. The elements of the fine include a small discharge of pollutants into the Gulf of Mexico and other elements that are indirectly related as the reason the discharge occurred. We are in the process of contesting this matter. Although we do not expect final disposition of this assessment to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows, there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcome of this assessment. A $330,000 liability related to this matter was included in accrued liabilities and other on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014.

Other Matters

In addition to the foregoing, we are named defendants or parties in certain other lawsuits, claims or proceedings incidental to our business and are involved from time to time as parties to governmental investigations or proceedings, including matters related to taxation, arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty and the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted accurately, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results or cash flows.

Item 1A.   Risk Factors 

There are numerous factors that affect our business and results of operations, many of which are beyond our control. In addition to information set forth in this quarterly report, you should carefully read and consider "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in Part I and "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, which contains descriptions of significant risks that might cause our actual results of operations in future periods to differ materially from those currently anticipated or expected. Other than set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risks previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as updated in our subsequent quarterly reports.

The potential for U.S. Gulf of Mexico hurricane related windstorm damage or liabilities could result in uninsured losses and may cause us to alter our operating procedures during hurricane season, which could adversely affect our business.

                Certain areas in and near the U.S. Gulf of Mexico experience hurricanes and other extreme weather conditions on a relatively frequent basis. Our drilling rigs in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico are located in areas that could cause them to be susceptible to damage and/or total loss by these storms, and we have a larger concentration of jackup rigs in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico than most of our competitors. We currently have eight jackup rigs and nine floaters in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Damage caused by high winds and turbulent seas could result in rig loss or damage, termination of drilling contracts for lost or severely damaged rigs or curtailment of operations on damaged drilling rigs with reduced or suspended day rates for significant periods of time until the damage can be repaired. Moreover, even if our drilling rigs are not directly damaged by such storms, we may experience disruptions in our operations due to damage to our customers' platforms and other related facilities in the area. Our drilling operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico have been impacted by hurricanes, including the total loss of one jackup rig during 2004, one platform rig during 2005 and two jackup rigs during 2008, with associated losses of contract revenues and potential liabilities.

                Insurance companies incurred substantial losses in the offshore drilling, exploration and production industries as a consequence of hurricanes that occurred in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during 2004, 2005 and 2008. Accordingly, insurance companies have substantially reduced the nature and amount of insurance coverage available for losses arising from named tropical storm or hurricane damage in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico ("windstorm damage") and have increased the cost of available windstorm coverage. The tight insurance market not only applies to coverage related to U.S. Gulf of Mexico windstorm damage or loss of our drilling rigs, but also impacts coverage for any potential liabilities to third parties associated with property damage, personal injury or death and environmental liabilities, as well as coverage for removal of wreckage and debris associated with hurricane losses. We have no assurance that the tight insurance market for windstorm damage, liabilities and removal of wreckage and debris will not continue into the foreseeable future.

                Our annual insurance policies were up for renewal effective May 31, 2014. Due to the significant premium, high deductible and limited coverage for windstorm damage, we decided not to purchase windstorm insurance for hull and machinery losses to our floaters arising from windstorm damage in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. We opted out of windstorm insurance for our jackups in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during 2009 and have not since renewed that insurance. We believe it is no longer customary for drilling contractors with similar size and fleet composition to purchase windstorm insurance for any rigs in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, for the aforementioned reasons. Accordingly, we have retained the risk of loss or damage for our eight jackup rigs and our nine floaters arising from windstorm damage in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
 
                We have established operational procedures designed to mitigate risk to our jackup rigs and floaters in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during hurricane season. In addition to procedures designed to better secure the drilling package on jackup rigs, improve jackup leg stability and increase the air gap to position the hull above waves, our procedures involve analysis of prospective drilling locations, which may include enhanced bottom surveys. These procedures may result in a decision to decline to operate on a customer-designated location during hurricane season notwithstanding that the location, water depth and other standard operating conditions are within a rig's normal operating range. Our

procedures and the associated regulatory requirements addressing Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during hurricane season, coupled with our decision to retain (self-insure) certain windstorm-related risks, may result in a significant reduction in the utilization of our jackup rigs and floaters in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

                Retained exposures for property loss or damage and wreckage and debris removal or other liabilities associated with U.S. Gulf of Mexico tropical storms or hurricanes could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results and cash flows if we sustain significant uninsured or underinsured losses or liabilities as a result of U.S. Gulf of Mexico tropical storms or hurricanes.

Governments may pass laws that subject us to additional taxation or may challenge our tax positions, which could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

There is increasing uncertainty with respect to tax laws, regulations and treaties, and the interpretation and enforcement thereof, that may affect our business.  In July 2014, the U.K. government enacted tax reforms to ensure that more of the profits generated by offshore drilling contractors in the U.K. are subject to U.K. taxation.  The reforms limit the amount of certain types of lease payments that can be deducted for U.K. tax purposes. In addition, the reforms prohibit taxable profits from operations on the U.K. Continental Shelf from being reduced by unrelated losses or expenses.  Other countries are evaluating legislative and regulatory reforms that would subject us to additional taxation or otherwise challenge our tax positions.  Further, our tax positions are subject to audit by U.K., U.S. and other foreign tax authorities. Such tax authorities may disagree with our interpretations or assessments of the effects of tax laws, treaties, or regulations or their applicability to our corporate structure or certain transactions we have undertaken. Even if we are successful in maintaining our positions, we may incur significant expenses in defending our position and contesting claims or positions asserted by tax authorities. If we are unsuccessful in defending them, such audits could significantly impact our consolidated effective income tax rate in past or future periods.

As a result of these uncertainties, as well as changes in the administrative practices and precedents of tax authorities or any reclassification or other matter (such as changes in applicable accounting rules) that increases the amounts we have provided for income taxes or deferred tax assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements, we cannot provide any assurances as to what our consolidated effective income tax rate will be in future periods.  If we are unable to mitigate the negative consequences of any change in law, audit or other matter, this could cause our consolidated effective income tax rate to increase and cause a material adverse effect on our financial position, operating results and/or cash flows.
