SEACOR HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The condensed consolidated financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 has been prepared by the Company and has not been audited by its independent registered certified public accounting firm. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2016, its results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, its comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, its changes in equity for the six months ended June 30, 2016, and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year or any future periods.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Unless the context otherwise indicates, any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the "Company" refers to SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to "SEACOR" refers to SEACOR Holdings Inc. Capitalized terms used and not specifically defined herein have the same meaning given those terms in the Company's Annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. Revenue is realized or realizable and earned when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue that does not meet these criteria is deferred until the criteria are met.
As of June 30, 2016, deferred revenues of $6.8 million, included in other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, related to the time charter of several offshore support vessels scheduled to be paid through the conveyance of an overriding royalty interest (the “Conveyance”) in developmental oil and gas producing properties operated by a customer in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Payments under the Conveyance, and the timing of such payments, were contingent upon production and energy sale prices. On August 17, 2012, the customer filed a voluntary petition for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The Company is vigorously defending its interest in connection with the bankruptcy filing; however, payments received under the Conveyance subsequent to May 19, 2012 are subject to creditors’ claims in bankruptcy court. The Company will recognize revenues when reasonably assured of a judgment in its favor. All costs and expenses related to these charters were recognized as incurred.
Property and Equipment. Equipment, stated at cost, is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset to an estimated salvage value. With respect to each class of asset, the estimated useful life is based upon a newly built asset being placed into service and represents the time period beyond which it is typically not justifiable for the Company to continue to operate the asset in the same or similar manner. From time to time, the Company may acquire older assets that have already exceeded the Company’s useful life policy, in which case the Company depreciates such assets based on its best estimate of remaining useful life, typically the next survey or certification date.

6


As of June 30, 2016, the estimated useful life (in years) of each of the Company’s major categories of new equipment was as follows:
Offshore support vessels (excluding wind farm utility)
20
Wind farm utility vessels
10
Inland river dry-cargo barges
20
Inland river liquid tank barges
25
Inland river towboats
25
Product tankers - U.S.-flag
25
Short-sea Container/RORO(1) vessels
20
Harbor and offshore tugs
25
Ocean liquid tank barges
25
Terminal and manufacturing facilities
20
______________________
(1)
Roll on/Roll off (“RORO”).
Equipment maintenance and repair costs and the costs of routine overhauls, drydockings and inspections performed on vessels and equipment are charged to operating expense as incurred. Expenditures that extend the useful life or improve the marketing and commercial characteristics of equipment as well as major renewals and improvements to other properties are capitalized.
Certain interest costs incurred during the construction of equipment are capitalized as part of the assets’ carrying values and are amortized over such assets’ estimated useful lives. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, capitalized interest totaled $9.9 million.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company performs an impairment analysis of long-lived assets used in operations, including intangible assets, when indicators of impairment are present. These indicators may include a significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset or asset group, a significant adverse change in the manner in which a long-lived asset or asset group is being used or in its physical condition, or a current period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or asset group. If the carrying value of the assets is not recoverable, as determined by the estimated undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value of the assets is reduced to fair value, if lower. Generally, fair value is determined using valuation techniques, such as expected discounted cash flows or appraisals, as appropriate. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recognized impairment charges of $21.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively, related to long-lived assets held for use.
The Company has identified indicators of impairment for certain of its offshore support vessel classes operated by Offshore Marine Services as a result of continued weak market conditions from the decline in oil and gas prices. As a consequence, the Company estimated the undiscounted cash flows and determined that for two vessel classes, its eight owned supply vessels and 13 owned liftboats, there is sufficient uncertainty as to whether or not their carrying value would be recovered through their future operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company obtained independent appraisals for each of those vessel classes resulting in a $19.4 million impairment charge related to its 13 liftboats and associated intangible assets. In addition, the Company recognized a $1.9 million impairment charge related to the anticipated sales of one supply vessel and one mini-supply vessel and certain suspended offshore support vessel upgrades.
The preparation of the undiscounted cash flows requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions on expected future rates per day worked and utilization levels of all Offshore Marine Services’ vessel classes based on anticipated future offshore oil and gas exploration and production activity in the geographic regions where the Company operates. If difficult market conditions persist and an anticipated recovery is delayed beyond the Company’s expectation, revisions to management’s forecasts may result in the Company recording additional impairment charges related to its long-lived assets in future periods.

Impairment of 50% or Less Owned Companies. Investments in 50% or less owned companies are reviewed periodically to assess whether there is an other-than-temporary decline in the fair value of the investment. An annual review is performed to consider, among other things, whether the carrying value of the investment is able to be recovered and whether or not the investee’s ability to sustain an earnings capacity would justify the carrying value of the investment. When the Company determines its investment in the 50% or less owned company is not recoverable or the decline in fair value is other-than-temporary, the investment is written down to fair value. Actual results may vary from the Company’s estimates due to the uncertainty regarding the projected financial performance of 50% or less owned companies, the severity and expected duration of declines in value, and the available liquidity in the capital markets to support the continuing operations of the 50% or less owned company. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized a $0.3 million impairment charge, net of tax, related to one of its Offshore Marine Services 50% or less owned companies. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges related to its 50% or less owned companies.
Deferred Gains. The Company has sold certain equipment to its 50% or less owned companies, entered into vessel sale-leaseback transactions with finance companies, and provided seller financing on sales of its equipment to third parties and its 50% or less owned companies. A portion of the gains realized from these transactions were deferred and recorded in deferred gains and other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

New Accounting Pronouncements. On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The core principal of the new standard is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet selected the method of adoption or determined what impact, if any, the adoption of the new standard will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued a comprehensive new leasing standard, which improves transparency and comparability among companies by requiring lessees to recognize a lease liability and a corresponding lease asset for virtually all lease contracts. It also requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined what impact, if any, the adoption of the new standard will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On March 30, 2016, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting standards, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined what impact, if any, the adoption of the new standard will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Fair Value Hedges. From time to time, the Company may designate certain of its foreign currency exchange contracts as fair value hedges in respect of capital commitments denominated in foreign currencies. By entering into these foreign currency exchange contracts, the Company may fix a portion of its capital commitments denominated in foreign currencies in U.S. dollars to protect against currency fluctuations. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had euro denominated forward currency exchange contracts with an aggregate U.S. dollar equivalent of $11.6 million related to offshore support vessels scheduled to be delivered in 2017. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the fair value of these contracts decreased by $0.3 million and was included as an increase to the corresponding hedged equipment included in construction in progress in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Cash Flow Hedges. The Company and certain of the Company’s 50% or less owned companies have interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges. By entering into these interest rate swap agreements, these companies have converted the variable LIBOR or EURIBOR component of certain of their outstanding borrowings to a fixed interest rate. The Company recognized losses on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges of $3.7 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). As of June 30, 2016, the interest rate swaps held by the Company and the Company’s 50% or less owned companies were as follows:
The Company had two interest rate swap agreements maturing in 2021 that call for the Company to pay a fixed rate of interest of (0.03)% on the aggregate notional value of €15.0 million ($16.7 million) and receive a variable interest rate based on EURIBOR on the aggregate notional value.
MexMar had four interest rate swap agreements with maturities in 2023 that call for MexMar to pay a fixed rate of interest ranging from 1.71% to 2.05% on the aggregate amortized notional value of $111.6 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the aggregate amortized notional value.
Sea-Cat Crewzer II had an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2019 that calls for Sea-Cat Crewzer II to pay a fixed rate of interest of 1.52% on the amortized notional value of $24.4 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the amortized notional value.
Sea-Cat Crewzer had an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2019 that calls for Sea-Cat Crewzer to pay a fixed rate of interest of 1.52% on the amortized notional value of $21.7 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the amortized notional value.
SeaJon had an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2017 that calls for SeaJon to pay a fixed interest rate of 2.79% on the amortized notional value of $31.5 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the amortized notional value.

The exchange option liability relates to a bifurcated embedded derivative in the Company’s 3.75% Subsidiary Convertible Senior Notes.
The Company holds positions in publicly traded equity options that convey the right or obligation to engage in future transactions in the underlying equity security or index. The Company’s investment in equity options primarily includes positions in energy, marine, transportation and other related businesses. These contracts are typically entered into to mitigate the risk of changes in the market value of marketable security positions that the Company is either about to acquire, has acquired or is about to dispose.
The Company enters and settles forward currency exchange, option and future contracts with respect to various foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2016, the outstanding forward currency exchange contracts translated into a net purchase of foreign currencies with an aggregate U.S. dollar equivalent of $2.1 million. These contracts enable the Company to buy currencies in the future at fixed exchange rates, which could offset possible consequences of changes in currency exchange rates with respect to the Company’s business conducted outside of the United States. The Company generally does not enter into contracts with forward settlement dates beyond twelve to eighteen months.
The Company and certain of its 50% or less owned companies have entered into interest rate swap agreements for the general purpose of providing protection against increases in interest rates, which might lead to higher interest costs. As of June 30, 2016, the interest rate swaps held by the Company or its 50% or less owned companies were as follows:
OSV Partners had two interest rate swap agreements with maturities in 2020 that call for OSV Partners to pay a fixed rate of interest ranging from 1.89% to 2.27% on the aggregate amortized notional value of $40.6 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the aggregate amortized notional value.
Dynamic Offshore had an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2018 that calls for Dynamic Offshore to pay a fixed interest rate of 1.30% on the amortized notional value of $78.8 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the amortized notional value.
Falcon Global had an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2022 that calls for Falcon Global to pay a fixed interest rate of 2.06% on the amortized notional value of $62.5 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the amortized notional value.
The Company and certain of its 50% or less owned companies enter and settle positions in various exchange and non-exchange traded commodity swap, option and future contracts. ICP enters into exchange traded positions (primarily corn, ethanol and natural gas) to protect its raw material and finished goods inventory balances from market changes. VA&E enters into exchange traded positions to protect its fixed price future purchase and sale contracts for sugar as well as its inventory balances from market changes. As of June 30, 2016, the net market exposure to these commodities under these contracts was not material.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs derived from observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2016 that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in thousands):

Marketable security gains (losses), net include unrealized losses of $24.0 million and gains of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to marketable security positions held by the Company as of June 30, 2016. Marketable security gains (losses), net include unrealized losses of $48.5 million and gains of $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to marketable security positions held by the Company as of June 30, 2016.
Level 3 Inputs. The fair value of the exchange option liability on subsidiary convertible senior notes is estimated with significant inputs that are both observable and unobservable in the market and therefore is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. Observable inputs include market quotes, current interest rates, benchmark yield curves, volatility, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and historical dividends. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the probability assessment of a SMH Spin-off. In the fair value measurement, holding the observable inputs constant, a significant increase in the probability of a SMH Spin-off would result in a significantly lower exchange option liability.

The estimated fair value includes the embedded conversion options on the Company’s 2.5% and 3.0% Convertible Senior Notes.
The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was estimated based upon quoted market prices or by using discounted cash flow analyses based on estimated current rates for similar types of arrangements. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company’s investments, at cost, in 50% or less owned companies because of the lack of quoted market prices and the inability to estimate fair value without incurring excessive costs. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company’s notes receivable from third parties

14


as the overall returns are uncertain due to certain provisions for additional payments contingent upon future events. Considerable judgment was required in developing certain of the estimates of fair value and, accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized impairment charges of $19.4 million related to Offshore Marine Services’ liftboat fleet and associated intangible assets and $1.9 million related to the anticipated sale of two offshore support vessels and certain suspended offshore support vessel upgrades. The fair value of the two offshore support vessels was determined based on the contracted sales prices of the vessels. The fair value of the liftboats was determined based on a third-party valuation of the fleet using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and therefore is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement were the construction costs of similar new equipment and estimated economic depreciation for comparably aged assets.
(2)
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company identified indicators of impairment in one of its cost investments and, as a consequence, recognized an impairment charge of $1.0 million for an other-than-temporary decline in fair value. The fair value was determined by an appraisal of the vessels in the underlying cost investment using a mix of inputs that are unobservable in the market and therefore is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement.
(3)
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company identified indicators of impairment in one of its 50% or less owned companies as a result of continuing weak market conditions and, as a consequence, recognized a $0.3 million impairment charge, net of tax, for an other-than-temporary decline in fair value. The investment was determined to have no value and the Company has suspended equity method accounting.
(4)
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a $6.7 million reserve for one of its notes receivable from third parties following a decline in the underlying collateral value. The collateral was determined to have no value.

STOCK REPURCHASES
SEACOR’s Board of Directors previously approved a securities repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to acquire its Securities, which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s repurchase authority for the Securities was $105.9 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company purchased 47,455 shares of Common Stock for treasury for an aggregate purchase price of $2.4 million from its employees to cover their tax withholding obligations upon the lapsing of restrictions on share awards. These shares were purchased in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Share Incentive Plans and not pursuant to the repurchase authorizations granted by SEACOR’s Board of Directors.

MULTI-EMPLOYER PENSION PLANS
AMOPP. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company received notification from the AMOPP that the Company’s withdrawal liability as of September 30, 2015 was $46.7 million based on an actuarial valuation performed as of that date. That liability may change in future years based on various factors, primarily employee census. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has no intention to withdraw from the AMOPP and no deficit amounts have been invoiced. Depending upon the results of the future actuarial valuations and the ten-year rehabilitation plan, it is possible that the AMOPP will experience further funding deficits, requiring the Company to recognize additional payroll related operating expenses in the periods invoices are received or contribution levels are increased.

Offshore Marine Services' capital commitments included nine fast support vessels, four supply vessels and one wind farm utility vessel. These commitments included $14.2 million for one supply vessel that may be assumed by a third party at their option. Shipping Services’ capital commitments included two U.S.-flag product tankers, one U.S.-flag chemical and petroleum articulated tug barge and two U.S.-flag harbor tugs and other equipment and upgrades. Inland River Services’ capital commitments included 50 dry-cargo barges, three inland river towboats and other equipment and upgrades.
On December 15, 2010, both ORM and NRC, a subsidiary of the Company prior to the SES Business Transaction were named as defendants in one of the several “master complaints” filed in the overall multi-district litigation relating to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response and clean-up in the Gulf of Mexico pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana (the “MDL”). The “B3” master complaint naming ORM and NRC asserts various claims on behalf of a putative class against multiple defendants concerning the clean-up activities generally and the use of dispersants specifically. Both prior to and following the filing of the aforementioned master complaint, individual civil actions naming the Company, ORM, and/or NRC alleging B3 exposure-based injuries and/or damages were consolidated with the MDL and stayed pursuant to court order, discussed in turn below. The Company believes that all of the B3 claims asserted against ORM and NRC have no merit, and on February 28, 2011, ORM and NRC moved to dismiss all claims asserted against them in the master complaint. On September 30, 2011, the Court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss that ORM and NRC had filed although the Court recognized the validity of the derivative immunity and implied preemption arguments that ORM and NRC advanced in their motion and directed ORM and NRC to (i) conduct limited discovery to develop evidence to support those arguments and (ii) then re-assert those arguments. A schedule for limited discovery and motion practice was established by the Court and, in accordance with that schedule, ORM and NRC filed for summary judgment re-asserting their immunity and preemption arguments on May 18, 2012. Those motions were argued on July 13, 2012 and taken under advisement. On July 17, 2014, the Court issued a pretrial order that established a protocol for disclosures clarifying the basis for the B3 claims asserted against the Clean-Up Responder Defendants, including ORM and NRC, in the MDL, whether by joinder in the master complaint, individual complaint or otherwise. Under this protocol, plaintiffs who satisfied certain criteria and believed they had specific evidence in support of their claims, including that any Clean-Up Responder Defendant(s) failed to act pursuant to the authority and direction of the federal government in conducting Deepwater Horizon oil spill remediation and clean-up operations, had to submit a sworn statement or face dismissal. Plaintiffs’ deadline to serve such sworn statements in support of their claims was September 22, 2014, with the exception of several Plaintiffs who were granted an extension until October 10, 2014. On November 14, 2014, the Clean-Up Responder Defendants and the Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee (“PSC”) in the MDL submitted a joint report to the Court regarding claimants’ compliance with the pretrial order. In this joint report, the parties (i) explained how they complied with the notice requirements of the Court’s July 17, 2014 pretrial order, (ii) noted that they had received 102 sworn statements in connection with this pretrial order, and (iii) provided the Court with an assessment of the sworn statements received. An additional sworn statement was received after the joint report was submitted. On January 7, 2016, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause (“OSC”) as to the B3 claims against the Clean-Up Responder Defendants, including ORM and NRC. The OSC ordered any plaintiff(s) opposed to the Court entering the proposed Order & Reasons (“O&R”) attached to the OSC to show cause, in writing, on or before January 28, 2016 why the Court should not dismiss their B3 claim(s) with prejudice for the reasons set forth in the O&R. The O&R addressed the pending summary judgment motions and stated, among other things, why the Clean-Up Responder Defendants are entitled to derivative immunity under the Clean Water Act and discretionary function immunity under the Federal Tort Claims Act, and why Plaintiffs’ claims are preempted by the implied conflict preemption doctrine. The O&R also discussed the results of the protocol delineated in the Court’s July 17, 2014 pretrial order and concluded with the dismissal of all but eleven Plaintiffs’ B3 claims against the Clean-Up Responder Defendants with prejudice. Eight individual Plaintiffs submitted responses to the OSC by the January 28, 2016 deadline, and the Clean-Up Responder Defendants submitted a response thereto on February 4, 2016. On February 16, 2016, the Court issued an order overruling the objections relayed in the eight individual Plaintiffs’ responses to the OSC, and then entered a dismissal order nearly identical to the O&R. Accordingly, the final Order & Reasons entered on February 16, 2016 dismissed all but eleven B3 claims against ORM and NRC with prejudice, whether by joinder in the master complaint, individual complaint, or otherwise (the “B3 Dismissal Order”). The deadline for Plaintiffs to appeal the B3 Dismissal Order has passed and the Company continues to evaluate how this ruling will impact the individual civil actions. Moreover, on April 8, 2016, the Court entered an order establishing a summary judgment briefing schedule as to the remaining eleven B3 claimants (the “Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs”). The Clean-Up Responder Defendants, including ORM and NRC, filed an omnibus motion for summary judgment as to the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs on May 9, 2016 (the “Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion”) and this motion is now fully briefed. In addition to the indemnity provided to ORM, pursuant to contractual agreements with the responsible party, the responsible party has agreed, subject to certain potential limitations, to indemnify and defend ORM and NRC in connection with the B3 claims in the MDL. Although the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from the remaining B3 claims, the Company does not expect they will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
As noted above, various civil actions concerning the Deepwater Horizon clean-up have been consolidated with the MDL and stayed. However, as discussed further below, the individual B3 exposure-based claims asserted against ORM and/or NRC have been dismissed pursuant to the B3 Dismissal Order or are subject of the above-referenced Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion. On July 20, 2010, two individuals purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the Civil District Court

17


for the Parish of Orleans in the State of Louisiana, John Wunstell, Jr. and Kelly Blanchard v. BP, et al., No. 2010-7437 (Division K) (the “Wunstell Action”), in which they assert, among other theories, that Mr. Wunstell suffered injuries as a result of his exposure to certain noxious fumes and chemicals in connection with the provision of remediation, containment, and response services by ORM during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response and clean-up in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Mr. Wunstell is one of the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs and his claim is subject to the Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion; Ms. Blanchard’s B3 claim against ORM was dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On April 8, 2011, ORM was named as a defendant in Johnson Bros. Corporation of Louisiana v. BP, PLC, et al., No. 2:11-CV-00781 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual business seeking damages allegedly caused by a delay on a construction project alleged to have resulted from the clean-up operations. On April 15, 2011, the Company, ORM, and NRC were named as defendants in James and Krista Pearson v. BP Exploration & Production, Inc. (“BP Exploration”), et al., No. 2:11-CV-00863 (E.D. La.) (the “Pearson Action”), which is a suit by a husband and wife who allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and are seeking damages for personal injury, property damage to their boat, and amounts allegedly due under contract. The B3 claims against ORM and NRC in the Pearson Action have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order, and the remainder of the claims alleged by these plaintiffs have been voluntarily dismissed against certain named defendants, including the Company, ORM and NRC. On April 15, 2011, ORM and NRC were named as defendants in Thomas Edward Black v. BP Exploration, et al., No. 2:11-CV-00867 (E.D. La.) (the “Black Action”), which is a suit by an individual who is seeking damages for, among other things, lost income because he allegedly could not find work in the fishing industry after the oil spill and exposure during the spill. The B3 exposure claims against ORM and NRC in the Black Action have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On April 20, 2011, a complaint was filed in Darnell Alexander, et al. v. BP, PLC, et al., No. 2:11-CV-00951 (E.D. La.) (the”Alexander Action”) on behalf of 117 individual plaintiffs that sought to adopt the allegations made in the referenced master complaint against ORM and NRC (and the other defendants). Plaintiffs in this matter were then granted leave to amend their complaint to include 410 additional individual plaintiffs. The claims asserted against ORM and NRC in the Alexander Action have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On October 3, 2012, ORM and NRC were served with a Rule 14(c) Third-Party Complaint by Jambon Supplier II, L.L.C. and Jambon Marine Holdings L.L.C. in their Limitation of Liability action, In the Matter of Jambon Supplier II, L.L.C., et al., No. 2:12-CV-00426 (E.D. La.). This Third-Party Complaint alleges that if claimant David Dinwiddie, who served as a clean-up crewmember aboard the M/V JAMBON SUPPLIER II vessel during the clean-up efforts, was injured as a result of his exposure to dispersants and chemicals during the course and scope of his employment, then said injuries were caused by the third-party defendants. On November 25, 2012, ORM was named as a defendant in Victoria Sanchez v. American Pollution Control Corp. et al., No. 2:12-CV-00164 (E.D. La.), a maritime suit filed by an individual who allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and sustained personal injuries during the course of such employment. Ms. Sanchez’s B3 claim against ORM has been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On December 17, 2012, the Court unsealed a False Claims Act lawsuit naming ORM as a defendant, Dillon v. BP, PLC et al., No. 2:12-CV-00987 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual seeking damages and penalties arising from alleged false reports and claims made to the federal government with respect to the amount of oil burned and dispersed during the clean-up. The federal government has declined to intervene in this suit. On April 8, 2013, the Company, ORM, and NRC were named as defendants in William and Dianna Fitzgerald v. BP Exploration et al., No. 2:13-CV-00650 (E.D. La.) (the “Fitzgerald Action”), which is a suit by a husband and wife whose son allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and became ill as a result of his exposure to oil and dispersants. While the decedent in the Fitzgerald Action is one of the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs subject to the Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion filed by ORM and NRC, the claim as against the Company remains stayed. Finally, on April 17, 2013, ORM was named as a defendant in Danos et al. v. BP America Production Co. et al., No. 2:13-CV-03747 (removed to E.D. La.) (the “Danos Action”), which is a suit by eight individuals seeking damages for dispersant exposure either as a result of their work during clean-up operations or as a result of their residence in the Gulf. Messrs. Jorey Danos and Frank Howell, plaintiffs in the Danos Action, are two of the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs and their claims are subject of the Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion; the other Danos Action plaintiffs’ B3 claims against ORM have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the B3 Dismissal Order and other developments in the MDL, including the settlements discussed below, on these individual actions. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these matters, to the extent they remain viable, but believes they are without merit and does not expect that they will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On February 18, 2011, Triton Asset Leasing GmbH, Transocean Holdings LLC, Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling Inc., and Transocean Deepwater Inc. (collectively "Transocean") named ORM and NRC as third-party defendants in a Rule 14(c) Third-Party Complaint in Transocean's own Limitation of Liability Act action, which is part of the overall MDL, tendering to ORM and NRC the claims in the referenced master complaint that have already been asserted against ORM and NRC. Transocean, Cameron International Corporation ("Cameron"), Halliburton Energy Services, Inc., and M-I L.L.C. ("M-I") also filed cross-claims against ORM and NRC for contribution and tort indemnity should they be found liable for any damages in Transocean's Limitation of Liability Act action and ORM and NRC asserted counterclaims against those same parties for identical relief. The remainder of the aforementioned cross-claims in Transocean's limitation action remain pending, although the Court has found Cameron and M-I to be not liable in connection with the Deepwater Horizon incident and resultant oil spill and dismissed these parties from the MDL. As indicated above, the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these

18


actions but believes they are without merit and does not expect that these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On November 16, 2012, 668 individuals who served as beach clean-up workers in Escambia County, Florida during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response commenced a civil action in the Circuit Court for the First Judicial Circuit of Florida, in and for Escambia County, Abney et al. v. Plant Performance Services, LLC et al., No. 2012-CA-002947, in which they allege, among other things, that ORM and other defendants engaged in the contamination of Florida waters and beaches in violation of Florida Statutes Chapter 376 and injured the Plaintiffs by exposing them to dispersants during the course and scope of their employment. This case was removed to federal court and ultimately consolidated with the MDL on April 2, 2013. On April 22, 2013, a companion case to this matter was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida, Abood et al. v. Plant Performance Services, LLC et al., No. 3:13-CV-00284 (N.D. Fla.), which alleges identical allegations against the same parties but names an additional 174 Plaintiffs, all of whom served as clean-up workers in various Florida counties during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response. This case was consolidated with the MDL on May 10, 2013. By court order, both of these matters have been stayed since they were consolidated with the MDL. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the B3 Dismissal Order and other developments in the MDL, including the settlements discussed below, on these cases. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these matters but believes they are without merit, and does not expect that these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Separately, on March 2, 2012, the Court announced that BP Exploration and BP America Production Company (“BP America”) (collectively “BP”) and the Plaintiffs had reached an agreement on the terms of two proposed class action settlements that will resolve, among other things, Plaintiffs’ economic loss claims and clean-up related claims against BP. Both settlements were granted final approval by the Court, all appeals have concluded, and the deadline for submitting claims with respect to both settlements has passed. Although neither the Company, ORM, nor NRC are parties to the settlement agreements, the Company, ORM, and NRC are listed as released parties on the releases accompanying both settlement agreements. Consequently, class members who did not file timely requests for exclusion will be barred from pursuing economic loss, property damage, personal injury, medical monitoring, and/or other released claims against the Company, ORM, and NRC. The Company believes these settlements have reduced the potential exposure, if any, from some of the pending actions described above, and continues to evaluate the settlements’ impacts on these cases.
In the course of the Company’s business, it may agree to indemnify the counterparty to an agreement. If the indemnified party makes a successful claim for indemnification, the Company would be required to reimburse that party in accordance with the terms of the indemnification agreement. Indemnification agreements generally are subject to threshold amounts, specified claim periods and other restrictions and limitations.
In connection with the SES Business Transaction, the Company remains contingently liable for certain obligations, including potential liabilities relating to work performed in connection with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response. Pursuant to the agreement governing the sale, the Company’s potential liability to the purchaser may not exceed the consideration received by the Company for the SES Business Transaction. The Company is currently indemnified under contractual agreements with BP for the potential liabilities relating to work performed in connection with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response.
In the normal course of its business, the Company becomes involved in various other litigation matters including, among other things, claims by third parties for alleged property damages and personal injuries. Management has used estimates in determining the Company’s potential exposure to these matters and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company’s estimates of that exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect such changes in estimated costs would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain statements discussed in this Form 10-Q as well as in other reports, materials and oral statements that the Company releases from time to time constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Generally, words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “plan,” “target,” “forecast” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter
Operating Revenues. Operating revenues were $39.4 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter, including a $37.2 million reduction in time charter revenues in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter.
Excluding the contribution of the wind farm utility vessels, fleet utilization was 50% in the Current Year Quarter compared with 65% in the Prior Year Quarter, and average rates per day worked were $10,354 in the Current Year Quarter compared with $13,955 in the Prior Year Quarter, a decrease of $3,601 per day or 26%. The number of days available for charter were 8,421 in the Current Year Quarter compared with 8,772 in the Prior Year Quarter, a 351 day or 4% reduction.
In the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, time charter revenues were $24.1 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter due to a $10.9 million reduction from the liftboat fleet, a $9.9 million reduction from anchor handling towing supply vessels, a $2.4 million reduction from fast support vessels, and a $0.9 million reduction for platform support vessels. Time charter revenues were $22.4 million lower due to reduced utilization, primarily as a consequence of cold-stacking vessels, $1.1 million lower due to a decrease in average day rates, and $0.8 million lower due to other changes in fleet mix. Time charter revenues were $0.2 million higher due to net fleet additions. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had 25 of 33 owned and leased-in vessels cold-stacked in this region compared with ten of 34 owned and leased-in vessels as of June 30, 2015. Of the 25 vessels cold-stacked, 13 were liftboats.
In Africa, time charter revenues were $4.4 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Time charter revenues were $3.0 million lower due to reduced utilization, of which $0.8 million was a consequence of cold-stacking vessels, and $1.4 million lower due to a decrease in average day rates. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had three of 16 owned and leased-in vessels cold-stacked in the region compared with none of 16 owned and leased-in vessels as of June 30, 2015.
In the Middle East, time charter revenues were $1.4 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Time charter revenues were $1.5 million higher due to improved utilization, $0.7 million higher due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions, and $0.6 million higher due to net fleet additions. Time charter revenues were $1.4 million lower due to a decrease in average day rates.
In Brazil, Mexico, Central and South America, time charter revenues were $4.4 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Time charter revenues were $0.9 million lower due to fleet dispositions and $3.5 million lower due to a change in contract status for two vessels from time charter to bareboat charter. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had one of six owned and leased-in vessels cold-stacked compared with none of six owned and leased-in vessels as of June 30, 2015.
    In Europe, excluding wind farm utility vessels, time charter revenues were $3.4 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Time charter revenues were $1.2 million lower due to reduced utilization, $0.1 million lower due to reduced average day rates, $1.1 million lower due to fleet dispositions, and $1.0 million lower due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates. For the wind farm utility vessels, time charter revenues were $1.1 million lower. Time charter revenues were $1.2 million lower due to reduced utilization, $0.2 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions, and $0.4 million lower due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates. Time charter revenues were $0.3 million higher due to an increase in average day rates, and $0.4 million higher due to fleet additions.
In Asia, time charter revenues were $1.2 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Time charter revenues were $1.3 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions, and $0.1 million higher due to an increase in average day rates. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had none of one owned vessel cold-stacked in the region compared with three of six owned vessels as of June 30, 2015.
Other operating revenues were $2.2 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter, primarily due to a reduction in other marine services revenue associated with decreased activity levels.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $27.9 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. On an overall basis, operating expenses were $3.1 million lower due to net fleet dispositions, $16.9 million lower due to the effect of cold-stacking vessels, $4.6 million lower for vessels in active service, $1.5 million lower due to changes in contract status for two vessels from time charter to bareboat charter and $1.8 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions and changes in fleet mix.

28


Personnel costs were $7.0 million lower due to the effect of cold-stacking vessels, $1.9 million lower for vessels in active service primarily due to favorable changes in currency exchange rates partially offset by increased seafarer compensation costs, and $1.1 million lower due to the change in contract status for two vessels from time charter to bareboat charter. Repair and maintenance costs were $2.4 million lower due to the effect of cold-stacking vessels, $1.2 million lower for vessels in active service, and $0.9 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions, changes in contract status from time charter to bareboat charter and other changes in fleet mix. Drydocking expenses were $4.0 million lower due to lower drydocking activity.
Administrative and General. Administrative and general expenses were $0.7 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to a reduction in shore side personnel costs.
Gains (Losses) on Asset Dispositions and Impairments, net. During the Current Year Quarter, the Company sold real property, two offshore support vessels and other equipment for net proceeds of $1.8 million and gains of $0.5 million, all of which were recognized currently. In addition, the Company recorded impairment charges of $19.4 million related to its liftboat fleet and associated intangible assets and $1.5 million related to the anticipated sale of two offshore support vessels. During the Prior Year Quarter, the Company sold two offshore support vessels and other equipment for net proceeds of $15.5 million and gains of $1.0 million, all of which were recognized currently. In addition, the Company recognized previously deferred gains of $2.5 million.
Operating Loss. Excluding the impact of gains (losses) on asset dispositions and impairments, net, operating loss as a percentage of operating revenues was 25% in the Current Year Quarter compared with 4% in the Prior Year Quarter. The increase was primarily due to lower time charter revenues partially offset by reductions in drydocking activity and daily running costs as a consequence of cold-stacking additional vessels.
Foreign currency gains (losses), net. During the Current Year Quarter, foreign currency losses, net were primarily due to the weakening of the pound sterling in relation to the euro underlying certain of the Company’s debt balances.
Equity in Earnings (Losses) of 50% or Less Owned Companies, Net of Tax. During the Current Year Quarter, equity in losses of 50% or less owned companies were lower primarily due to lower rates per day worked earned by MexMar’s fleet, losses on interest rate swaps related to Falcon Global’s debt and losses of $3.0 million for the Company’s proportionate share of impairment charges associated with its joint ventured fleet.
Current Six Months compared with Prior Six Months

29


In Brazil, Mexico, Central and South America, time charter revenues were $11.3 million lower in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months. Time charter revenues were $6.2 million lower due to a change in contract status for two vessels from time charter to bareboat charter, $3.1 million lower due to fleet dispositions and $2.0 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had one of six owned and leased-in vessels cold-stacked compared with none of six owned and leased-in vessels as of June 30, 2015.
    In Europe, excluding wind farm utility vessels, time charter revenues were $5.0 million lower in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months. Time charter revenues were $1.6 million lower due to reduced utilization, $0.3 million lower due to reduced average day rates, $1.1 million lower due to fleet dispositions, and $2.0 million lower due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates. For the wind farm utility vessels, time charter revenues were $2.4 million lower. Time charter revenues were $2.9 million lower due to reduced utilization, $0.2 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions, and $0.6 million lower due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates.

Other operating revenues were $1.8 million lower in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months, primarily due to a reduction in other marine services revenue associated with decreased activity levels.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $53.4 million lower in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months. On an overall basis, operating expenses were $8.8 million lower due to net fleet dispositions, $27.8 million lower due to the effect of cold-stacking vessels, $7.8 million lower for vessels in active service, $4.0 million lower due to changes in contract status for two vessels from time charter to bareboat charter and $5.0 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions and other changes in fleet mix.
Personnel costs were $2.9 million lower due to net fleet dispositions, $13.4 million lower due to the effect of cold-stacking vessels, $3.1 million lower for vessels in active service primarily due to favorable changes in currency exchange rates partially offset by increased seafarer compensation costs, $1.2 million lower due to changes in contract status from time charter to bareboat charter and $2.5 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions and other changes in fleet mix. Repair and maintenance costs were $4.6 million lower due to the effect of cold-stacking vessels, $1.2 million lower for vessels in active service, $0.2 million lower due to net fleet dispositions, and $1.0 million lower due to the repositioning of vessels between geographic regions, changes in contract status from time charter to bareboat charter and other changes in fleet mix. Drydocking expenses were $7.1 million lower due lower drydocking activity.
Administrative and General. Administrative and general expenses were $1.9 million lower in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months primarily due to a reduction in shore side personnel costs.
Gains (Losses) on Asset Dispositions and Impairments, net. During the Current Six Months, the Company sold real property, two offshore support vessels and other equipment for net proceeds of $1.9 million and gains of $0.6 million, all of which were recognized currently. In addition, the Company recorded impairment charges of $19.4 million related to its liftboat fleet and associated intangible assets and $1.9 million related to the anticipated sale of two offshore support vessels and certain suspended offshore support vessel upgrades. During the Prior Six Months, the Company sold two offshore support vessels and other equipment for net proceeds of $15.7 million and gains of $0.9 million, all of which were recognized currently. In addition, the Company recognized previously deferred gains of $2.5 million and recorded a $6.6 million impairment charge related to the suspended construction of two offshore support vessels.
Operating Loss. Excluding the impact of gains (losses) on asset dispositions and impairments, net, operating loss as a percentage of operating revenues was 26% in the Current Six Months compared with 7% in the Prior Six Months. The increase was primarily due to lower time charter revenues partially offset by reductions in drydocking activity and daily running costs as a consequence of cold-stacking additional vessels.
Derivative gains (losses), net. During the Current Six Months, derivative gains, net were primarily due to unrealized gains on equity options.
Foreign currency gains (losses), net. During the Current Six Months, foreign currency losses, net were primarily due to the weakening of the pound sterling in relation to the euro underlying certain of the Company’s debt balances.
Equity in Earnings (Losses) of 50% or Less Owned Companies, Net of Tax. During the Current Six Months, equity in losses of 50% or less owned companies were lower primarily due to lower rates per day worked earned by MexMar’s fleet, losses on interest rate swaps related to Falcon Global’s debt and losses of $3.0 million for the Company’s proportionate share of impairment charges associated with its joint ventured fleet.

Operating revenues from liquid unit tow operations were $7.5 million lower primarily due to the sale of its equipment during the Current Year Quarter. Operating revenues from the 10,000 barrel inland river liquid tank barge operations were $5.4 million lower following the sale of its equipment during the third quarter of 2015. Operating revenues from fleeting operations were $1.1 million lower primarily due to a reduction in exports of grain and grain byproducts. Operating revenues from inland river towboat operations and other activities were $5.4 million lower primarily due to the completion of machine and repair services provided to third parties in the Prior Year Quarter.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $21.1 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Barge logistics expenses were $7.4 million lower primarily due to lower towing and switching costs for the dry-cargo barge pools as a consequence of lower activity levels, reduced fuel prices and lower costs for the 10,000 barrel inland river liquid tank barge operations following the sale of its equipment during the third quarter of 2015. Personnel costs were $2.8 million lower primarily from liquid unit tow operations following the sale of its equipment during the Current Year Quarter.

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues were $0.1 million lower in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter and $5.6 million higher in the Current Six Months compared with the Prior Six Months. Operating revenues for petroleum transportation were $1.7 million higher in the Current Year Quarter and $7.6 million higher in the Current Six Months primarily due to fewer out-of-service days and the delivery of one newly built U.S.-flag product tanker placed into service in the Current Year Quarter, partially offset by a rate modification upon the Company’s election to keep a U.S.-flag product tanker on charter with an existing client. Operating revenues for harbor towing and bunkering were $3.2 million lower in the Current Year Quarter and $4.2 million lower in the Current Six Months primarily due to a change in contract status from time charter to bareboat charter for the Company’s bunkering operations in St. Eustatius and reduced fuel surcharges for harbor towing as a consequence of lower fuel prices. Operating revenues for short-sea transportation were $1.4 million higher in the Current Year Quarter and $2.0 million higher in the Current Six Months primarily due to higher cargo shipping demand.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $5.9 million lower in the Current Year Quarter and $15.8 million lower in the Current Six Months primarily due to drydocking two U.S.-flag product tankers in the Prior Six Months.
Operating Income. Operating income as a percentage of operating revenues was 20% in the Current Year Quarter compared with 11% in the Prior Year Quarter and 24% in the Current Six Months compared with 7% in the Prior Six Months. The increases were primarily due to the drydocking of U.S.-flag product tankers as discussed above.
Other, net. During the Current Year Quarter, the Company recognized a $1.0 million impairment charge related to one of its cost investments.
Equity in Earnings (Losses) of 50% or Less Owned Companies, Net of Tax. Equity in losses in 50% or less owned companies, net of tax, includes losses of $2.3 million in the Current Year Quarter and $3.6 million in the Current Six Months from Trailer Bridge. In addition, the Company recognized interest income (not a component of segment profit) of $2.6 million in the Current Year Quarter and $5.0 million in the Current Six Months on notes due from Trailer Bridge. Equity in earnings of 50% or less owned companies, net of tax, included $1.4 million in the Prior Year Quarter and $2.6 million in the Prior Six Months from Dorian, which was reclassified to marketable securities during December 2015.

The Company may use its liquidity to fund acquisitions, repurchase shares of SEACOR common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), for treasury, repurchase its outstanding notes or make other investments. Sources of liquidity are cash balances, marketable securities, construction reserve funds and cash flows from operations. From time to time, the Company may secure additional liquidity through asset sales or the issuance of debt, shares of Common Stock or common stock of its subsidiaries, preferred stock or a combination thereof.
The Company's capital commitments as of June 30, 2016 by year of expected payment were as follows (in thousands):

To the extent a SMH Spin-off does not occur prior to December 1, 2017, the holders of the 3.75% Subsidiary Convertible Senior Notes may require us to purchase for cash all or part of the notes at par on that date; however, if the SMH Spin-off is consummated, this put option of $175.0 million would immediately terminate.
SEACOR’s Board of Directors previously approved a securities repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to acquire its Common Stock, 7.375% Senior Notes, 3.0% Convertible Senior Notes and 2.5% Convertible Senior Notes (collectively the "Securities"), which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. On February 26, 2016, SEACOR's Board of Directors increased the Company's repurchase authority for the Securities to $200.0 million. As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s repurchase authority for the Securities was $105.9 million.
As of June 30, 2016, the Company held balances of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities and construction reserve funds totaling $809.2 million. As of June 30, 2016, construction reserve funds of $166.9 million were classified as non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as the Company has the intent and ability to use the funds to acquire equipment. Additionally, the Company has $90.8 million available under subsidiary credit facilities. Subsequent to June 30, 2016, the Company’s subsidiaries borrowed $27.9 million under these credit facilities to fund their capital commitments.

Short and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements
The Company anticipates it will continue to generate positive cash flows from operations and that these cash flows will be adequate to meet the Company’s working capital requirements. In support of the Company’s capital expenditure program and debt service requirements, the Company believes that a combination of cash balances on hand, cash generated from operating activities, funding under existing subsidiary financing arrangements and access to the credit and capital markets will provide sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations. The Company continually evaluates possible acquisitions and dispositions of certain businesses and assets. The Company’s sources of liquidity may be impacted by the general condition of the markets in which it operates and the broader economy as a whole, which may limit its access to the credit and capital markets on acceptable terms. Management will continue to closely monitor the Company’s liquidity and the credit and capital markets.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
For a discussion of the Company's off-balance sheet arrangements, refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. There has been no material change in the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements during the Current Six Months except as follows:
The Company is a guarantor of the outstanding debt for one of Offshore Marine Services’ 50% or less owned companies. As of June 30, 2016, the amount of the Company’s guarantee was $48.0 million.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
For a discussion of the Company's contractual obligations and commercial commitments, refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. There has been no material change in the Company’s contractual obligations and commercial commitments during the Current Six Months.
Contingencies
On December 15, 2010, both ORM and NRC, a subsidiary of the Company prior to the SES Business Transaction were named as defendants in one of the several “master complaints” filed in the overall multi-district litigation relating to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response and clean-up in the Gulf of Mexico pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana (the “MDL”). The “B3” master complaint naming ORM and NRC asserts various claims on behalf of a putative class against multiple defendants concerning the clean-up activities generally and the use of dispersants specifically. Both prior to and following the filing of the aforementioned master complaint, individual civil actions naming the Company, ORM, and/or NRC alleging B3 exposure-based injuries and/or damages were consolidated with the MDL and stayed pursuant to court order, discussed in turn below. The Company believes that all of the B3 claims asserted against ORM and NRC have no merit, and on February 28, 2011, ORM and NRC moved to dismiss all claims asserted against them in the master complaint. On September 30, 2011, the Court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss that ORM and NRC had filed although the Court recognized the validity of the derivative immunity and implied preemption arguments that ORM and NRC advanced in their motion and directed ORM and NRC to (i) conduct limited discovery to develop evidence to support those arguments and (ii) then re-assert those arguments. A schedule for limited discovery and motion practice was established by the Court and, in accordance with that schedule, ORM

44


and NRC filed for summary judgment re-asserting their immunity and preemption arguments on May 18, 2012. Those motions were argued on July 13, 2012 and taken under advisement. On July 17, 2014, the Court issued a pretrial order that established a protocol for disclosures clarifying the basis for the B3 claims asserted against the Clean-Up Responder Defendants, including ORM and NRC, in the MDL, whether by joinder in the master complaint, individual complaint or otherwise. Under this protocol, plaintiffs who satisfied certain criteria and believed they had specific evidence in support of their claims, including that any Clean-Up Responder Defendant(s) failed to act pursuant to the authority and direction of the federal government in conducting Deepwater Horizon oil spill remediation and clean-up operations, had to submit a sworn statement or face dismissal. Plaintiffs’ deadline to serve such sworn statements in support of their claims was September 22, 2014, with the exception of several Plaintiffs who were granted an extension until October 10, 2014. On November 14, 2014, the Clean-Up Responder Defendants and the Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee (“PSC”) in the MDL submitted a joint report to the Court regarding claimants’ compliance with the pretrial order. In this joint report, the parties (i) explained how they complied with the notice requirements of the Court’s July 17, 2014 pretrial order, (ii) noted that they had received 102 sworn statements in connection with this pretrial order, and (iii) provided the Court with an assessment of the sworn statements received. An additional sworn statement was received after the joint report was submitted. On January 7, 2016, the Court issued an Order to Show Cause (“OSC”) as to the B3 claims against the Clean-Up Responder Defendants, including ORM and NRC. The OSC ordered any plaintiff(s) opposed to the Court entering the proposed Order & Reasons (“O&R”) attached to the OSC to show cause, in writing, on or before January 28, 2016 why the Court should not dismiss their B3 claim(s) with prejudice for the reasons set forth in the O&R. The O&R addressed the pending summary judgment motions and stated, among other things, why the Clean-Up Responder Defendants are entitled to derivative immunity under the Clean Water Act and discretionary function immunity under the Federal Tort Claims Act, and why Plaintiffs’ claims are preempted by the implied conflict preemption doctrine. The O&R also discussed the results of the protocol delineated in the Court’s July 17, 2014 pretrial order and concluded with the dismissal of all but eleven Plaintiffs’ B3 claims against the Clean-Up Responder Defendants with prejudice. Eight individual Plaintiffs submitted responses to the OSC by the January 28, 2016 deadline, and the Clean-Up Responder Defendants submitted a response thereto on February 4, 2016. On February 16, 2016, the Court issued an order overruling the objections relayed in the eight individual Plaintiffs’ responses to the OSC, and then entered a dismissal order nearly identical to the O&R. Accordingly, the final Order & Reasons entered on February 16, 2016 dismissed all but eleven B3 claims against ORM and NRC with prejudice, whether by joinder in the master complaint, individual complaint, or otherwise (the “B3 Dismissal Order”). The deadline for Plaintiffs to appeal the B3 Dismissal Order has passed and the Company continues to evaluate how this ruling will impact the individual civil actions. Moreover, on April 8, 2016, the Court entered an order establishing a summary judgment briefing schedule as to the remaining eleven B3 claimants (the “Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs”). The Clean-Up Responder Defendants, including ORM and NRC, filed an omnibus motion for summary judgment as to the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs on May 9, 2016 (the “Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion”) and this motion is now fully briefed. In addition to the indemnity provided to ORM, pursuant to contractual agreements with the responsible party, the responsible party has agreed, subject to certain potential limitations, to indemnify and defend ORM and NRC in connection with the B3 claims in the MDL. Although the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from the remaining B3 claims, the Company does not expect they will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
As noted above, various civil actions concerning the Deepwater Horizon clean-up have been consolidated with the MDL and stayed. However, as discussed further below, the individual B3 exposure-based claims asserted against ORM and/or NRC have been dismissed pursuant to the B3 Dismissal Order or are subject of the above-referenced Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion. On July 20, 2010, two individuals purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans in the State of Louisiana, John Wunstell, Jr. and Kelly Blanchard v. BP, et al., No. 2010-7437 (Division K) (the “Wunstell Action”), in which they assert, among other theories, that Mr. Wunstell suffered injuries as a result of his exposure to certain noxious fumes and chemicals in connection with the provision of remediation, containment, and response services by ORM during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response and clean-up in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. Mr. Wunstell is one of the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs and his claim is subject to the Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion; Ms. Blanchard’s B3 claim against ORM was dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On April 8, 2011, ORM was named as a defendant in Johnson Bros. Corporation of Louisiana v. BP, PLC, et al., No. 2:11-CV-00781 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual business seeking damages allegedly caused by a delay on a construction project alleged to have resulted from the clean-up operations. On April 15, 2011, the Company, ORM, and NRC were named as defendants in James and Krista Pearson v. BP Exploration & Production, Inc. (“BP Exploration”), et al., No. 2:11-CV-00863 (E.D. La.) (the “Pearson Action”), which is a suit by a husband and wife who allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and are seeking damages for personal injury, property damage to their boat, and amounts allegedly due under contract. The B3 claims against ORM and NRC in the Pearson Action have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order, and the remainder of the claims alleged by these plaintiffs have been voluntarily dismissed against certain named defendants, including the Company, ORM and NRC. On April 15, 2011, ORM and NRC were named as defendants in Thomas Edward Black v. BP Exploration, et al., No. 2:11-CV-00867 (E.D. La.) (the “Black Action”), which is a suit by an individual who is seeking damages for, among other things, lost income because he allegedly could not find work in the fishing industry after the oil spill and exposure during the spill. The B3 exposure claims against ORM and NRC in the Black Action have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On April 20, 2011, a complaint was filed in Darnell Alexander, et al. v. BP, PLC, et al., No.

45


2:11-CV-00951 (E.D. La.) (the”Alexander Action”) on behalf of 117 individual plaintiffs that sought to adopt the allegations made in the referenced master complaint against ORM and NRC (and the other defendants). Plaintiffs in this matter were then granted leave to amend their complaint to include 410 additional individual plaintiffs. The claims asserted against ORM and NRC in the Alexander Action have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On October 3, 2012, ORM and NRC were served with a Rule 14(c) Third-Party Complaint by Jambon Supplier II, L.L.C. and Jambon Marine Holdings L.L.C. in their Limitation of Liability action, In the Matter of Jambon Supplier II, L.L.C., et al., No. 2:12-CV-00426 (E.D. La.). This Third-Party Complaint alleges that if claimant David Dinwiddie, who served as a clean-up crewmember aboard the M/V JAMBON SUPPLIER II vessel during the clean-up efforts, was injured as a result of his exposure to dispersants and chemicals during the course and scope of his employment, then said injuries were caused by the third-party defendants. On November 25, 2012, ORM was named as a defendant in Victoria Sanchez v. American Pollution Control Corp. et al., No. 2:12-CV-00164 (E.D. La.), a maritime suit filed by an individual who allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and sustained personal injuries during the course of such employment. Ms. Sanchez’s B3 claim against ORM has been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. On December 17, 2012, the Court unsealed a False Claims Act lawsuit naming ORM as a defendant, Dillon v. BP, PLC et al., No. 2:12-CV-00987 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual seeking damages and penalties arising from alleged false reports and claims made to the federal government with respect to the amount of oil burned and dispersed during the clean-up. The federal government has declined to intervene in this suit. On April 8, 2013, the Company, ORM, and NRC were named as defendants in William and Dianna Fitzgerald v. BP Exploration et al., No. 2:13-CV-00650 (E.D. La.) (the “Fitzgerald Action”), which is a suit by a husband and wife whose son allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and became ill as a result of his exposure to oil and dispersants. While the decedent in the Fitzgerald Action is one of the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs subject to the Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion filed by ORM and NRC, the claim as against the Company remains stayed. Finally, on April 17, 2013, ORM was named as a defendant in Danos et al. v. BP America Production Co. et al., No. 2:13-CV-03747 (removed to E.D. La.) (the “Danos Action”), which is a suit by eight individuals seeking damages for dispersant exposure either as a result of their work during clean-up operations or as a result of their residence in the Gulf. Messrs. Jorey Danos and Frank Howell, plaintiffs in the Danos Action, are two of the Remaining Eleven Plaintiffs and their claims are subject of the Omnibus Summary Judgment Motion; the other Danos Action plaintiffs’ B3 claims against ORM have been dismissed by virtue of the B3 Dismissal Order. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the B3 Dismissal Order and other developments in the MDL, including the settlements discussed below, on these individual actions. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these matters, to the extent they remain viable, but believes they are without merit and does not expect that they will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On February 18, 2011, Triton Asset Leasing GmbH, Transocean Holdings LLC, Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling Inc., and Transocean Deepwater Inc. (collectively "Transocean") named ORM and NRC as third-party defendants in a Rule 14(c) Third-Party Complaint in Transocean's own Limitation of Liability Act action, which is part of the overall MDL, tendering to ORM and NRC the claims in the referenced master complaint that have already been asserted against ORM and NRC. Transocean, Cameron International Corporation ("Cameron"), Halliburton Energy Services, Inc., and M-I L.L.C. ("M-I") also filed cross-claims against ORM and NRC for contribution and tort indemnity should they be found liable for any damages in Transocean's Limitation of Liability Act action and ORM and NRC asserted counterclaims against those same parties for identical relief. The remainder of the aforementioned cross-claims in Transocean's limitation action remain pending, although the Court has found Cameron and M-I to be not liable in connection with the Deepwater Horizon incident and resultant oil spill and dismissed these parties from the MDL. As indicated above, the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these actions but believes they are without merit and does not expect that these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On November 16, 2012, 668 individuals who served as beach clean-up workers in Escambia County, Florida during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response commenced a civil action in the Circuit Court for the First Judicial Circuit of Florida, in and for Escambia County, Abney et al. v. Plant Performance Services, LLC et al., No. 2012-CA-002947, in which they allege, among other things, that ORM and other defendants engaged in the contamination of Florida waters and beaches in violation of Florida Statutes Chapter 376 and injured the Plaintiffs by exposing them to dispersants during the course and scope of their employment. This case was removed to federal court and ultimately consolidated with the MDL on April 2, 2013. On April 22, 2013, a companion case to this matter was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida, Abood et al. v. Plant Performance Services, LLC et al., No. 3:13-CV-00284 (N.D. Fla.), which alleges identical allegations against the same parties but names an additional 174 Plaintiffs, all of whom served as clean-up workers in various Florida counties during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response. This case was consolidated with the MDL on May 10, 2013. By court order, both of these matters have been stayed since they were consolidated with the MDL. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the B3 Dismissal Order and other developments in the MDL, including the settlements discussed below, on these cases. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these matters but believes they are without merit, and does not expect that these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Separately, on March 2, 2012, the Court announced that BP Exploration and BP America Production Company (“BP America”) (collectively “BP”) and the Plaintiffs had reached an agreement on the terms of two proposed class action settlements that will resolve, among other things, Plaintiffs’ economic loss claims and clean-up related claims against BP. Both settlements were granted final approval by the Court, all appeals have concluded, and the deadline for submitting claims with respect to both settlements has passed. Although neither the Company, ORM, nor NRC are parties to the settlement agreements, the Company, ORM, and NRC are listed as released parties on the releases accompanying both settlement agreements. Consequently, class members who did not file timely requests for exclusion will be barred from pursuing economic loss, property damage, personal injury, medical monitoring, and/or other released claims against the Company, ORM, and NRC. The Company believes these settlements have reduced the potential exposure, if any, from some of the pending actions described above, and continues to evaluate the settlements’ impacts on these cases.
In the course of the Company’s business, it may agree to indemnify the counterparty to an agreement. If the indemnified party makes a successful claim for indemnification, the Company would be required to reimburse that party in accordance with the terms of the indemnification agreement. Indemnification agreements generally are subject to threshold amounts, specified claim periods and other restrictions and limitations.
In connection with the SES Business Transaction, the Company remains contingently liable for certain obligations, including potential liabilities relating to work performed in connection with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response. Pursuant to the agreement governing the sale, the Company’s potential liability to the purchaser may not exceed the consideration received by the Company for the SES Business Transaction. The Company is currently indemnified under contractual agreements with BP for the potential liabilities relating to work performed in connection with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response.
In the normal course of its business, the Company becomes involved in various other litigation matters including, among other things, claims by third parties for alleged property damages and personal injuries. Management has used estimates in determining the Company’s potential exposure to these matters and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company’s estimates of that exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect such changes in estimated costs would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
For a discussion of the Company’s exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. There has been no material change in the Company’s exposure to market risk during the Current Six Months.
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
With the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of June 30, 2016. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2016.
The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those internal control systems determined to be effective can provide only a level of reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
