Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries
Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and basis of presentation
Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, is a global oilfield products company, serving the drilling, subsea, completion, production and infrastructure sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. The Company designs, manufactures and distributes products and engages in aftermarket services, parts supply and related services that complement the Company’s product offering.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company's investment in an operating entity where the Company has the ability to exert significant influence, but does not control operating and financial policies is accounted for using the equity method. The Company's share of the net income of this entity is recorded as "Earnings from equity investment" in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The investment in this entity is included in "Investment in unconsolidated subsidiary" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company reports its share of equity earnings within operating income (loss) as the investee's operations are integral to the operations of the Company.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or any other interim period.
These interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, which are included in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2017 (the "Annual Report").
2. Recent accounting pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Updates ("ASU") No. 2017-04 Intangibles- Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test where the implied fair value of goodwill needs to be determined and compared to the carrying amount of that goodwill to measure the impairment loss. The Company is required to adopt the amendments in this Update for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has early adopted the standard in the first quarter of 2017. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01 Business Combination (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business, in an effort to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods, and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Restricted Cash a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. This new guidance requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 is effective for fiscal years beginning after

Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements (continued)
(Unaudited)

December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16 Income Tax (Topic 740) - Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. Current GAAP prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. This new guidance eliminates this exception and requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. ASU 2016-16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-15 Cash Flow Statement (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This new guidance addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice, including: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The only issue currently relevant to the Company is distributions received from equity method investees, where the new guidance allows an accounting policy election between the cumulative earnings approach and the nature of the distribution approach. The Company will continue to use the cumulative earnings approach, therefore the guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.  This new guidance includes provisions intended to simplify how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. The Company applied the update prospectively beginning January 1, 2017.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases.  Under this new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases with terms of greater than twelve months. The standard will take effect for public companies with fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The comprehensive new standard will supersede existing revenue recognition guidance and require revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Adoption of the new rules could affect the timing of revenue recognition for certain transactions. The guidance permits the entity to use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. The FASB issued several subsequent updates in 2016 containing implementation guidance related to the new standard. These standards provide additional guidance related to principal versus agent considerations, licensing, and identifying performance obligations. Additionally, these standards provide narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients as well as technical corrections and improvements. Overall, the new guidance is to be effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2017. Companies are able to early adopt the pronouncement, however not before fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company currently anticipates that it will adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method. The Company has put in place an implementation team to provide training and to review contracts subject to the new revenue standard. The Company will also continue to monitor for any additional implementation or other guidance that may be issued in 2017 with respect to the new revenue standard and adjust its implementation plans accordingly.

3. Acquisitions
2017 Acquisition

On January 9, 2017, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Cooper Valves, LLC as well as 100% of the general partnership interests of Innovative Valve Components for total aggregate consideration of $14.5 million (collectively, “Cooper”). The aggregate consideration includes the issuance of stock valued at $4.5 million and certain contingent cash payments. These acquisitions are included in the Production and Infrastructure segment. The acquired Cooper brands include the Accuseal® metal seated ball valves engineered to meet Class VI shut off standards for use in severe service applications, as well as a full line of cast and forged gate, globe, and check valves. Innovative Valve Components, in partnership with Cooper Valves, commercialized critical service valves and components for the power generation, mining and oil and natural gas industries. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have not been presented because they are not material to the consolidated financial statements. Pro forma results of operations for this acquisition have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements.
2016 Acquisition
In April 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of the wholesale completion packers business of Team Oil Tools, Inc. The acquisition includes a wide variety of completion and service tools, including retrievable and permanent packers, bridge plugs and accessories which are sold to oilfield service providers, packer repair companies and distributors on a global basis. This acquisition is included in the Completions segment. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have not been presented because they are not material to the consolidated financial statements. Pro forma results of operations for the 2016 acquisition have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements.

Credit Facility
On February 25, 2016, we amended our credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and several financial institutions as lenders (the “Credit Facility”) to reduce lender commitments to $200.0 million. On December 12, 2016, we further amended the Credit Facility (such further amendment, the “Amended Credit Facility”), to, among other things, reduce revolving credit line commitments from $200.0 million to $140.0 million, including up to $25.0 million available for letters of credit and up to $10.0 million in swingline loans. Availability under the Amended Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to eligible accounts receivable in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada, eligible inventory in the United States, and cash on hand.
The Credit Facility matures in November 2018. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2017, the Company had $18.3 million of outstanding letters of credit. Subsequent to March 31, 2017, upon the completion of the bank's borrowing base audit, the Company had the capacity to borrow an additional $102.6 million subject to certain limitations in the Credit Facility. The Company's borrowing capacity under the Amended Credit Facility could be reduced or eliminated, depending on the future EBITDA. Weighted average interest rates under the Credit Facility for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 were approximately 3.00%.
There have been no changes to the financial covenants disclosed in Item 8 of the Annual Report and the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants at March 31, 2017.
7. Income taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was 45.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 31.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Impacting the tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was the implementation of new accounting guidance related to employee share-based compensation accounting. This new guidance now requires that all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The Company had a benefit from share-based compensation awards in the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in an increase in the tax benefit rate for the period on the pre-tax loss. Further, the tax rate is higher than the prior year comparable period because of the change in the proportion of losses being generated in the United States, which are benefited at a higher statutory tax rate, as compared to earnings being generated outside the United States in jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates. The effective tax rate can vary from period to period depending on the Company's relative mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings.
8. Fair value measurements
At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no debt outstanding under the Credit Facility. At March 31, 2017, the Company had $18.3 million of outstanding letters of credit.
The fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes is estimated using Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy and is based on quoted prices for those or similar instruments. At March 31, 2017, the fair value and the carrying value of the Company’s Senior Notes approximated $395.9 million and $401.9 million, respectively. At December 31, 2016, the fair value and the carrying value of the Company’s Senior Notes each approximated $402.0 million.
There were no outstanding financial assets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 that required measuring the amounts at fair value. The Company did not change its valuation techniques associated with recurring fair value measurements from prior periods and there were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

10. Commitments and contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is, and in the future could be, involved in various pending or threatened legal actions that may or may not be covered by insurance. Management has reviewed such pending judicial and legal proceedings, the reasonably anticipated costs and expenses in connection with such proceedings, and the availability and limits of insurance coverage, and has established reserves that are believed to be appropriate in light of those outcomes that are considered to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. The reserves accrued at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, are immaterial. It is management's opinion that the Company's ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The diluted loss per share calculation excludes all stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016 because there was a net loss for both quarters.
12. Stockholders' equity
Share-based compensation
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company granted 278,958 options and 836,204 shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units, which includes 124,213 performance share awards with a market condition. The stock options were granted with an exercise price of $20.10. Of the restricted stock or restricted stock units granted, 656,020 vest ratably over four years on each anniversary of the date of grant. 55,971 shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units were granted to the non-employee members of the Board of Directors, which have a twelve month vesting period from the date of grant. The performance share awards granted may settle for between zero and two shares of the Company's common stock. The number of shares issued pursuant to the performance share awards will be determined based on the total shareholder return of the Company's common stock as compared to a group of peer companies, measured annually over a one year, two year and three-year performance period.
13. Related party transactions
The Company has sold and purchased equipment and services to and from a few affiliates of certain directors. The dollar amounts related to these related party activities are not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Overview
We are a global oilfield products company, serving the drilling, subsea, completion, production and infrastructure sectors of the oil and natural gas industry. We design, manufacture and distribute products, and engage in aftermarket services, parts supply and related services that complement our product offering. Our product offering includes a mix of highly engineered capital products and frequently replaced items that are used in the exploration, development, production and transportation of oil and natural gas. Our capital products are directed at: drilling rig equipment for new rigs, upgrades and refurbishment projects; subsea construction and development projects; the placement of production equipment on new producing wells; pressure pumping equipment; and downstream capital projects. Our engineered systems are critical components used on drilling rigs, for completions or in the course of subsea operations, while our consumable products are used to maintain efficient and safe operations at well sites in the well construction process, within the supporting infrastructure and at processing centers and refineries. Historically, over 60% of our revenue is derived from consumable products and activity-based equipment, while the balance is derived from capital products and a small amount from rental and other services.
We seek to design, manufacture and supply reliable products that create value for our diverse customer base, which includes, among others, oil and natural gas operators, land and offshore drilling contractors, oilfield service companies, subsea construction and service companies, and pipeline and refinery operators.
We operate three business segments:
Drilling & Subsea segment. This segment designs and manufactures products and provides related services to the drilling, energy subsea construction and services markets, and other markets such as alternative energy, defense and communications. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) capital equipment and a broad line of expendable drilling products consumed in the drilling process; and (ii) subsea remotely operated vehicles and trenchers, specialty components and tooling, products used in subsea pipeline infrastructure, and a broad suite of complementary subsea technical services and rental items.
Completions segment. This segment designs, manufactures and supplies products and provides related services to the well construction, completion, stimulation and intervention markets. The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) well construction casing and cementing equipment, cable protectors used in completions, composite plugs used for zonal isolation in hydraulic fracturing and wireline flow-control products; and (ii) capital and consumable products sold to the pressure pumping, hydraulic fracturing and flowback services markets, including hydraulic fracturing pumps, pump consumables and flow iron as well as coiled tubing, wireline cable, and pressure control equipment used in the well completion and intervention service markets.
Production & Infrastructure segment. This segment designs, manufactures and supplies products and provides related equipment and services for production and infrastructure markets.  The products and related services consist primarily of: (i) engineered process systems, production equipment and related field services, as well as oil and produced water treatment equipment; and (ii) a wide range of industrial valves focused on serving upstream, midstream, and downstream oil and natural gas customers as well as power and other general industries.

Market Conditions
The level of demand for our products and services is directly related to activity levels and the capital and operating budgets of our customers, which in turn are influenced heavily by energy prices and the expectation as to future trends in those prices. Energy prices have historically been cyclical in nature, as exemplified by the significant decrease in oil prices beginning in the middle of 2014, and are affected by a wide range of factors. The low energy price environment caused a steep reduction in activity and spending by our customers beginning in 2014 through 2016.

20


Although the probability of any cyclical change in energy prices and the extent and duration of such a change are difficult to predict, there are signs that the market may be recovering from the recent downturn. The announcement in November 2016 by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other unaffiliated countries that their production levels would be capped or reduced has led to a modest increase in oil prices. The improvement in oil prices since that announcement and the recent stability of gas prices has resulted in higher drilling and completions activity and spending by our customers in North America, causing us to experience improved revenue and orders during the first quarter of 2017. The volume of rigs drilling for oil and natural gas in North America is a driver for our revenue from this region, and the number of those rigs has increased substantially over the past year and continues to increase. Activity in high cost areas, however, especially offshore and in some international areas, is lagging the recovery in North American onshore activity. The pace and strength of a recovery in energy markets and in our results, however, remain uncertain.
The table below shows average crude oil and natural gas prices for West Texas Intermediate crude oil ("WTI"), United Kingdom Brent crude oil (Brent), and Henry Hub natural gas:

The U.S. rig count reached a trough of 404 rigs in the second quarter of 2016. Since then the number of working rigs has increased steadily to 824 rigs at the end of March 2017. As a result of higher oil prices and recent stability of gas prices, the average U.S. rig count increased 26% from the fourth quarter of 2016. A substantial portion of our revenue is impacted by the level of rig activity and the number of wells completed. While the U.S. land rig count has started to recover, it remains low compared to historical norms.

Revenue
Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $11.7 million, or 7.3%, to $171.1 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. In general, the increase in revenue is due to the higher market activity resulting from higher commodity prices. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, our Drilling & Subsea segment, Completions segment, and Production & Infrastructure segment comprised 36.3%, 24.3%, and 39.4% of our total revenue, respectively, which compared to 41.0%, 21.1%, and 37.9% of total revenue, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The changes in revenue by operating segment consisted of the following:
Drilling & Subsea segment — Revenue decreased $3.2 million, or 4.9%, to $62.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. Revenue decreased by approximately $10 million primarily due to lower volume of sales and lower demand for our remotely operated vehicles and associated systems and other offshore products, which was largely attributable to reduced investment in global offshore projects. This decrease in segment revenue is partially offset by increased sales volumes of our drilling products caused by the 35% increase in average U.S. rig count compared to the prior year period. In our drilling products, the increase was substantially all volume driven as we had particularly strong increases in drilling consumable products, such as our drilling mud pump upgrade packages.
Completions segment — Revenue increased $7.9 million, or 22.9%, to $42.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. There has been an increase in market demand for our stimulation and intervention products and equipment from increased commodity prices that drove the average U.S. rig count higher by 35% over the same prior year period. Substantially all of the increase in segment revenue was attributable to higher volumes, as the market experienced higher completions activity, primarily in North America.
Production & Infrastructure segment — Revenue increased $7.1 million, or 11.7%, to $67.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in drilling and completions budgets have led to increased sales of our surface production equipment and valve products. Approximately $4 million of the increase is attributable to higher sales volumes in our activity-based production equipment. The remaining segment revenue increase was due to higher sales of valves, almost entirely driven by our acquisition of Cooper in the first quarter of 2017.
Segment operating loss and segment operating margin percentage
Segment operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2017, improved $4.6 million from $(24.9) million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $(20.2) million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The segment operating margin percentage is calculated by dividing segment operating loss by revenue for the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the segment operating margin percentage of (11.8)% represents an improvement from the (15.6)% operating margin percentage for three months ended March 31, 2016. The change in operating margin percentage for each segment is explained as follows:
Drilling & Subsea segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment improved to (14.5)% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, from (15.0)% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The first quarter of 2017 and 2016 included $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively of severance and facility closure costs incurred to reduce our cost structure. Operating margins improved in our drilling product line due to higher activity levels, which caused an improvement in manufacturing scale efficiencies, as well as a better mix of higher margin product sales. For the segment, the margin improvement for drilling products were partially offset with lower margins for our subsea products due to lower revenue levels resulting in less absorption of manufacturing costs compared to the prior year period.
Completions segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment improved to (6.8)% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, from (18.8)% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in operating margin percentage is due to increased operating leverage on higher revenue and higher volumes. Lastly, operating income (loss) was positively impacted by better earnings from our investment in Global Tubing, LLC.
Production & Infrastructure segment — The operating margin percentage for this segment improved to (0.8)% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, from (2.3)% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The first quarter of 2017 and 2016 included $0.2 million and $2.0 million, respective of costs related to facility consolidation. Operating margin has remained consistent with prior year when taking into consideration the facility consolidation costs in the prior year period.
Corporate — Selling, general and administrative expenses for Corporate increased by $0.6 million, or (8.0)% to $7.8 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016, due to

24


higher personnel costs and higher professional fees. Corporate costs include, among other items, payroll related costs for general management and management of finance and administration, legal, human resources; professional fees for legal, accounting and related services; and marketing costs.
Other items not included in segment operating loss
Several items are not included in segment operating loss, but are included in total operating loss. These items include transaction expenses, and gains and losses from the sale of assets. Transaction expenses relate to legal and other advisory costs incurred in acquiring businesses and are not considered to be part of segment operating loss. These costs were $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Other income and expense
Other income and expense includes interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses. We incurred $6.6 million of interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of $0.6 million from the three months ended March 31, 2016 primarily due to lower commitment fees on the reduced size of undrawn revolving credit line. The foreign exchange gains or losses are primarily the result of movements in the British pound and the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar. These movements in the exchange rates create foreign exchange gains or losses when applied to assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than the location’s functional currency. The primary drivers impacting our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) were gains on U.S. dollar denominated cash, trade account receivables and net intercompany receivable balances for our entities using a functional currency other than U.S. dollar. We wrote off $2.6 million of deferred financing costs as a result of the amendment of our Credit Facility in the first quarter of 2016 reducing the size of the undrawn revolving credit line.
Taxes
Tax expense includes current income taxes expected to be due based on taxable income to be reported during the periods in the various jurisdictions in which we conduct business, and deferred income taxes based on changes in the tax effect of temporary differences between the bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes at the beginning and end of the respective periods. The effective tax rate, calculated by dividing total tax expense by income before income taxes, was 45.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 31.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Impacting the tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was the implementation of new accounting guidance related to employee share-based compensation accounting. This new guidance now requires that all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The Company had a benefit of $2.4 million from share-based compensation awards in the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in an increase in the tax benefit rate for the period on the pre-tax loss. Further, the tax rate is higher than the prior year comparable period because of the change in the proportion of losses being generated in the United States, which are benefited at a higher statutory tax rate, as compared to earnings being generated outside the United States in jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates. The effective tax rate can vary from period to period depending on the Company's relative mix of U.S. and non-U.S. earnings.
Liquidity and capital resources
Sources and uses of liquidity
At March 31, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $204.9 million and total debt of $399.2 million. We believe that cash on hand and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to fund operations, working capital needs, capital expenditure requirements and financing obligations for the foreseeable future.
We intend to elect to carry back our 2016 U.S. net operating loss to recover taxes paid in earlier periods, and we expect to receive a tax refund of approximately $33 million in 2017.
Our total 2017 capital expenditure budget is approximately $30.0 million, which consists of, among other items, investments in maintaining certain manufacturing facilities, replacing end of life machinery and equipment, maintaining our rental fleet of subsea equipment, continuing the implementation of our enterprise resource planning solution globally, and general capital expenditures. This budget does not include expenditures for potential business acquisitions.
Although we do not budget for acquisitions, pursuing growth through acquisitions is a significant part of our business strategy. We expanded and diversified our product portfolio with the acquisition of one business in the first quarter of 2017 for total consideration of $14.5 million. We used cash on hand and stock to finance this acquisition. We continue

25


to actively review acquisition opportunities on an ongoing basis. Our ability to make significant additional acquisitions for cash may require us to obtain additional equity or debt financing, which we may not be able to obtain on terms acceptable to us or at all.
Our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 are presented below (in millions):

Cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities was $(15.0) million and $26.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Cash provided by operations decreased as a result of sequential increases in investments in working capital in the first quarter of 2017 compared to reductions in working capital in the same period in 2016. The change in working capital in the first quarter of 2017 is primarily due to investment in inventory in anticipation of the recovery, and increased accounts receivable due to higher revenue.
Cash flows used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $13.2 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase was primarily due to $8.7 million in consideration paid for acquisitions in the first quarter of 2017 compared to no consideration paid for an acquisition in the first quarter of 2016. Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were $3.5 million as compared to $4.3 million for the comparable prior period as we have reduced our capital budgets to maintenance levels. Investment in unconsolidated subsidiary for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $1.0 million as compared to no investment for the comparable prior period.
Cash flows used in financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase primarily resulted from cash paid related to shares withheld for taxes on stock based compensation of $4.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $0.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2016.
Senior Notes Due 2021
The Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.250% per annum, payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, and mature on October 1, 2021. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by our subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Facility and rank junior to, among other indebtedness, the Credit Facility to the extent of the value of the collateral securing the Credit Facility.
Credit Facility
On February 25, 2016, we amended our credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and several financial institutions as lenders to reduce lender commitments to $200.0 million. On December 12, 2016, we further amended the Credit Facility to, among other things, reduce revolving credit line commitments from $200.0 million to $140.0 million, including up to $25.0 million available for letters of credit and up to $10.0 million in swingline loans. Availability is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to eligible accounts receivable in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada, eligible inventory in the United States, and cash on hand.

26


There have been no changes to the Amended Credit Facility financial covenants disclosed in Item 7 of our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As of March 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all financial covenants. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had no borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility. At March 31, 2017 we had $18.3 million of outstanding letters of credit. Subsequent to March 31, 2017, upon the completion of the bank's borrowing base audit, we had the capacity to borrow an additional $102.6 million subject to certain limitations in the Amended Credit Facility. Our borrowing capacity under the Amended Credit Facility could be reduced or eliminated, depending on our future EBITDA.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
As of March 31, 2017, we had no off-balance sheet instruments or financial arrangements, other than operating leases and letters of credit entered into in the ordinary course of business.
Contractual obligations
Except for net repayments under the Amended Credit Facility, as of March 31, 2017, there have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments disclosed in the Annual Report.
