The company committed approximately $134 million for the construction of one 292-foot deepwater PSV and two 268-foot PSVs. The 292-foot deepwater PSV will be built in an international shipyard and has an estimated delivery date of April 2016. The two 268-foot deepwater PSVs will be built in a different international shipyard and have estimated delivery dates of January and April 2015.

Subsequent to March 31, 2014 the company has collected approximately $66 million of cash from Sonatide, which represents approximately 62 days of revenue (based on revenues of our Angolan operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2014).

In May 2014, the company’s Board of Directors authorized the company to spend up to $200.0 million to repurchase shares of its common stock in open-market or privately-negotiated transactions. The effective period for this authorization is July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. The company uses its available cash and, when considered advantageous, borrowings under its revolving credit facility or other borrowings, to fund any share repurchases. The company evaluates share repurchase opportunities relative to other investment opportunities and in the context of current conditions in the credit and capital markets.
